Act 43.Resolving the misunderstanding
"So...... These are the people sent by the Trester family to spy on me?"
Grandia said with some weakness, slumped in her chair and looked at the few people opposite. 【】
"Well, yes. ”
Alyssa seemed to have some difficulty facing Grandia and tried her best to keep her composure.
"To be precise, it's because you have been getting close to Miss Ulysses recently, and the lord has asked us to investigate your background, so I ......"
Sitting on the other side of the room, Ravel, the man in the lead, said that he seemed to be injured by the paralysis crystal, and that he still shivered from time to time.
They are now in the Guard office in Christine, where the Captain of the Guard presides over mediation.
"I'm sorry, Grantia, I didn't know they would do that. ”
Alyssa apologized for her servant and bent down deeply.
"Miss, Miss, you can't ......"
Ravel wanted to say something when he saw that his master was so humble, but he was soon glared at by Alyssa and obediently kept his mouth shut.
"Okay, I see. ”
Grantia didn't have any intention of pursuing it, on the one hand, she and Alyssa were friends, and on the other hand, it was indeed Grantia who did it herself.
"And that was the same time you were before?"
Thinking of the watchers she and Lottie had encountered earlier, Grantia felt a little different.
"Before, no, no, no, a few of us only received orders to rush over yesterday, and before that, we stayed at our house on duty......"
Ravel hurriedly explained, while looking at Alyssa, trying to get proof from the other party.
"Then it looks like there's another group of people. ”
Grantia whispered, and looked at Ravel again, this guy was quite in awe of Alyssa's appearance, not like he could lie.
[Afterglow without fire: But at this point in time, it's hard not to think of a magic competition.] 】
In the field of vision, Lawson reminded Grantia that although he also felt that it would be too foolish for the other party to really want to listen to the information, it was better to always be careful in everything.
[Ultramarine Fortress Scholar: I know.] 】
Grantia turned her gaze to Alyssa.
"But these things are happening at this time, and I do get a little worried. ”
For Alyssa, it might be better to be blunt, hence Grantia said.
"While I'm sure Alyssa doesn't need to get information from my side, there's no guarantee that your family will take matters like this on their own. ”
"I can make a soul contract. ”
Alyssa said this, causing the eyes of everyone else present to widen.
"Miss, this is not good, in case she uses this contract to make any demands on you......"
Ravel advises that the soul contract is not a good thing to promote, and that the prototype of this contract is a document used by mages to summon creatures from other worlds to maintain their mastership, and once signed, it brings permanent constraints.
Of course, there is another form of soul contract now, that is, some contract documents that need to be guaranteed, usually speaking, after signing a soul contract, if you want to break it, you have to pay a very high price, and in most cases it will not be used.
If Alyssa had signed a soul contract with Grantia in connection with the Magic Competition, not only would Alyssa not be able to actively listen to the information about Grantia's entries, but even if someone else had obtained it and told Alyssa, she would have to pay for the breach of contract.
"Forget about the soul contract, I'm not so despicable yet. ”
Grantia didn't really want to restrain Alyssa, but she had a new idea.
"But I have to make amends. ”
Hearing Grantia's words, Alyssa was stunned, but also nodded slightly.
"Yes, whatever you want, within your ability, the Trest family will do their best to satisfy you. ”
Alyssa was still thinking about what Grantia would ask for, whether it was a precious magic material, a special magic guide, or gold and silver treasures, but Grantia didn't speak, pointing directly at Alyssa.
"Me?"
Alyssa asked, tilting her head, waiting for Grantia's explanation.
"Tomorrow day, Alyssa, you can find time to spend with me. ”
"Huh?" "What?" "Huh?"
Everyone present looked at Grandia with questioning expressions.
[Fireless Afterglow: I didn't expect you to have a plan.] 】
Rosen actually has no prejudice against Alyssa, if she really wants to do something unfavorable to Grantia, then there is no need to act in this play at all, and it is quite easy for Alyssa to do it directly.
But in any case, this happening is undoubtedly a challenge for the relationship between Alyssa and Grantia.
Grantia now wants to put Alyssa at ease.
"Well, okay. ”
Alyssa didn't ask Grantia what she was going to do, and nodded her head in agreement.
"Wait, wait, Miss, how can you ...... like this?"
Ravel immediately became a little anxious and stood up to try to persuade Elisa.
"Ravel. ”
Alyssa interrupted Ravel's protest with a loud voice.
"You take your people back and make it clear to that one that I will stand in that place on my own, so I don't need anyone else to interfere, especially to my friends. ”
She said in a very serious tone, as if she had become the frosty kaolin flower again.
And at this time, Alyssa had an indescribable sense of majesty, which made everyone present unconsciously hold their breath.
"Sorry to make you laugh. ”
Alyssa turned her head to look at Grantia.
"Uh, it's fine. ”
Grantia herself was also frightened by Alyssa's sudden change, and Alyssa, who felt that she had softened a little, seemed to return to the time when they first met in an instant.
"Ah, it's time to go back to school. ”
When Grantia saw that the matter had come to an end and wanted to get up to say goodbye, she looked at the clock on the wall and was suddenly shocked.
It was close to evening, and according to the regulations, the students who applied to go out had to go back to school in the afternoon, and if they went back now, they would definitely be punished by the teacher.
And not only that, after the evening, the school will open the night guard circle, strictly restricting the entry and exit of personnel, and it is even more difficult to sneak back, even if you take the normal route, you have to alarm at least one person at the level of a vice principal.
"I don't know if I can escape punishment by explaining the situation......
Grantia was still thinking about how to get away with it, but Alyssa spoke.
"I have a proposal for that. ”
"What proposal?"
Thinking that Alyssa also came to Christine Town because of herself, Grantia felt a little sorry for the other party, and then asked.
"Near Christine, the Trest family actually has a property that I use occasionally on weekends......"
Alyssa said, her eyes suddenly drifting a little, and she didn't look directly at Grantia.
"So, if I don't dislike it, I can ask someone to apply to the school, and we'll spend the night in that villa today...... How?"
"Well, okay......"
Grantia nodded in agreement, and then gradually reacted.
"What did you just say?".
