Chapter 162: A Long Day (Continued)

Jealousy...... Hilda's feelings for her are self-conscious and conscious. From the day she decided to help Lutga rescue Rakhi, she expected that one day she would experience the mood she was feeling now.

In the morning, seeing Lutga and Raki on their beds in the bedroom, Hilda rightfully realized what was happening. It is better to say that this scene has not happened until today, which is incomprehensible.

- Originally, it was in that position, it should be me......

Like this, naturally intense thoughts emerge from my mind. But for Hilda now, it's an unattainable wish.

Because unlike Raghi, whose body 'changed from a dragon to a human' and allowed her to become closer to her beloved, Hilda's situation can be said to be the opposite.

Hilda, though she had said that she would compete with Ratche, was only self-consoling. Hilda is no longer technically human, but a doll, a 'shell wrapped in a weapon'. No matter how much you simulate the human form, you can't change the fact that the body is made of steel.

Not to mention giving birth to an heir for the man you love, you can't even pour out your love and hug each other hard. Because with Hilda's body specifications, if you use whatever you want, I'm afraid that ordinary humans' ** will be easily pinched like tomatoes.

Thinking of this...... Hilda began to resent her body. Even if this is the body of Elize, who is like a daughter, in order to save her life.

Once upon a time, Hilda had felt joy and relief at the strength she had gained, because it meant that she was able to stand up for her most cherished family. It is true that this body has also left in the past few months, and has made a lot of achievements for Count Lutga and the three young ladies, but ...... What about the future?

The presence of Raghi will undoubtedly take her place.

She was pure and beautiful, and although she was not good at words, she loved everyone in the family deeply. Not only Lutga and the three sisters, but even the other maids in the lord's mansion, including the petite mascot orc girl Rachel, have gradually become one with Ratchi. Not only that, but Rachi's power is incredibly powerful. In terms of combat ability alone, I'm afraid that no creature in this world can match it.

So, what about yourself?

The purity that was originally decided to be dedicated to the beloved master was lost to the cruel bandits. There is neither outstanding physiognomy nor invincible strength.

The feeling of powerlessness and loss made Hilda's heart ache and struggle, and she couldn't help but think that as a result, she had completely lost her beauty, purity, and strength, and she was an ugly woman with jealousy and exclusive desire hidden in her heart...... What is the value of this?

"Hilda~~Ready to start~~!"

At the top of Celia's windmill tower, she didn't see through the entanglement in the maid beside her, and Eliez's sunny smile interrupted the maid's thoughts as she got into the horns.

"Ah...... Ah, all right, Miss Eliezer, what am I going to do next?"

Hilda replied with some sluggishness.

In front of him, towering on the top of the tower, a crystal instrument like a triangular pyramid, is the magic guide device that Aliezel has been working on developing in these days. Its function is to project a panoramic view of the wedding scene held in Celestia to the French ?? Around the Lilabis Mountains, every town in the so-called "League of Celia". Let everyone, raise their heads and witness this festive moment together.

As for the structure and operation of this device, apart from the author Ariz, probably only the assistant young magician Michelle and Hilda know. As Ariel's apprentice, Michelle was brilliant and personally involved in the development, and naturally knew the principle of the idea, while Hilda was only unilaterally instilled with the hardware structure and performance parameters of the device by Arielizer.

"Miss Sylda, please open the core of your power furnace, the 'Simulated Dragonstone', to power the 'Dragon Magic' engraved on the surface of the crystal. ”

The young mage took Elize's place, carefully explaining the next steps to Hilda. Neither 'Simulated Dragonstone' nor 'Dragon's Magic' are unfamiliar words to Hilda.

The 'Simulated Dragonstone' is a high-efficiency charging core created from the Dragonstone of the Abyss Dragon. With it, Hilda no longer needs to 'eat sugar' to draw magic from Arizel. She is able to imitate Ratche, drawing the most suitable magical attributes from nature to fill the magic needed for her actions.

The 'Dragon Magic' was born with the ancient dragons, sending out high-frequency sound waves that are difficult for humans to imitate for chanting, and combined with dragonstones to drive super-large spells with special effects.

These are all new technologies that Ariza has developed through her 'collaboration' with Lachi. I have to say that this is a research topic that will make the Imperial Magicians Association rush to the eyeballs, after all, human beings learning the magic of the dragon clan is unheard of in the history of the continent.

"Uh-huh~~ Anyway, follow the instructions of Brother Michelle~~ I'll go to Miss Laqi to explain~~"

As she spoke, Eliez carried the rabbit doll that followed her like a shadow, and ran to the other side of the crystal with quick steps, which was the direction where Ratchey was.

β€œ......”

However, Elize's unintentional move once again planted a little haze in Hilda's heart. The maid had the illusion that her daughter had left herself behind and was getting closer and closer to her...... Again, it's jealousy.

"Miss Hilda, what's wrong, is there anything wrong with the operation, if yes, I'll ...... with Miss Eliser."

Hilda's sluggish appearance made the gentle young man with a sven face look a little worried.

"No, it's fine. Excuse me, Mr. Michelle. It's just a little distracted, so please keep explaining. ”

Then, with an even somewhat bleak wry smile, the maid shook her head.

To sum it up simply, the operation of this wedding live broadcast equipment requires two sets of 'dragon magic' to be performed at the same time. Today's 'trial run' is not to broadcast the wedding live, but to show the world the sacred miracle of "the dragon witch praying for the peace of the earth".

As previously announced at the Alliance meeting, Raki will play and carry out the role of a shrine maiden who prays for the land, exorcises evil spirits and brings good news.

In order to achieve this, in recent days, Arieza has buried new magic patterns in the crystals set up in various towns, so that they can resonate with the dragon magic of 'Rachi', not only spreading the magic of the 'Abyss Dragon' around the town to moisten the barren land, but also exerting a deterrent effect very close to the 'dragon power' on the surrounding magical beasts.

As a result, Rachi's performance will radically improve the natural environment of the surrounding towns, making the nonsense of the League meeting come true. In fact, the dragon magic used at this time was not new to Rathi herself, as she had been using a similar method for thousands of years to enshrine one of her kingdoms.

What's more, now with Arizor's technical assistance, its range of influence and continuation effect have been greatly enhanced. If successful, Raki may replace the influence of the Goddess Cult in the hearts of the people and become a new generation of goddesses.

On the other hand, what Hilda has to do is to convert what she 'sees' and 'hears' into clear light and shadow signals through another 'dragon magic', which is shown to everyone in the alliance area. To put it bluntly, it's just to become a photographer to promote and praise Laqi's achievements.

- I see...... That's right......

At this time, Hilda was suddenly relieved, as if she understood Ariz's plans and intentions these days. Presumably, on the wedding day, I will play a similar role. At the same time, combined with the previous new equipment, that is, the special equipment that is as beautiful as a wedding dress - [Frigga Robe], I am afraid that on that day, I will transform into Laki's dress...... In the true sense of the word, "making a wedding dress for others".

Hilda was saddened by this...... No, no, it's not such a shallow and weak feeling.

At this time, the maid's heart was indescribably rejected and sour. After all, the maid named 'Hilda' had lost her life since the night she was brutally abused by the bandits. From that moment on, she lost her identity as a human being, and at the same time lost her qualification to fight for romance.

At best, I am just a weapon, a piece of clothing, and a piece of equipment...... A set of consumables.

Moreover, she has no choice but to silently accept all kinds of enhancements and transformations, accept her identity, accept her future and what the creator (Alize) wants her to do.

Hilda, then, had no choice but to accept her fate...... Thinking optimistically from another angle, on the wedding day, he became Rachi's 'wedding dress', standing side by side beside Lutga, showing the world the happiness of the two, isn't it also an 'immersive' happiness......?

So Hilda can only deceive herself, suppress herself, and give an answer that she has no choice but to do.

"Yes, Mr. Michelle. The data information for 'Dragon Magic' has been loaded, and I am ready to start ......"

Hilda said as she delicately controlled the skin and artificial muscles of her face, allowing herself to maintain her usual gentle smile.

"Hmm...... Got Alyez, I'm ready. ”

Ratchet down, put on a quiet smile, and unpretentiously reached out and gently stroked the ends of Elize's slightly curled hair.

"Uh-huh~~Then let's start~~Live channel on~~!"

Elizer twisted her waist and shook her long soft hair, and with a lively and charming posture, she announced the beginning of the 'dress rehearsal'. Then, the roaring 'chorus' of Hilda and Raki rang out from the top of the tower, and the crystals began to shine with a melody that shone breathtakingly.

The light flew into the distance, and just like thatβ€”the blessing from the 'Qingyuan Dragon' fell from the sky under the eyes of all people.
