chapter 39
39 – Mage Millia (5)
Wizard Millia (5)
“Happy Birthday!”
“Kyaa! Milia! So pretty!”
“… ….”
Esmeralda was silent in the heated atmosphere of the party venue.
It’s so awkward.
You mean this is normal?
The birthday she remembers is just the day she buys meat, right?
In fact, most of the warriors’ parties ended up buying delicious food.
But you said this was normal?
You’re throwing a big party like this?
It’s not like the 100th anniversary of the Mage Tower, it’s just her birthday?
‘Damn the nobles.’
Esmeralda felt the gap between rich and poor.
When I saw Milia’s heart being welcomed by everyone from afar, I couldn’t help but feel the gap between the rich and the poor.
She wasn’t on the small side just because she was called her, but all powerful people like Irina and Milia had bigger breasts than herself.
That’s why Tina must have lived a less fortunate life than Esmeralda. Maybe she didn’t move to and from the slums?
She may not even have citizenship, seeing as she has no power pockets at all.
‘I will definitely make you happy. Tina.’
Esmeralda took care of her expression with a promise that she would do well in the future for Tina, who must have suffered a lot.
The entertainment of rich people made my stomach churn, but now it’s time to celebrate.
She didn’t want to appear narrow-minded in front of her friends.
“Milia! Happy birthday!”
“Yes. Thank you. Esmeralda. You may not be used to it, but go play.”
“… ….”
Esmeralda wondered if Millia had provoked her.
What do you mean you’re not used to it? Is it overthinking?
However, Milia didn’t seem to think much of her expression or intentions, so she was able to realize that she had been underestimated.
“Here is a gift. Milia. These are trivial items, but they are holy water and elixirs made by the Celestial Church.”
“Thank you as always, Irina.”
Milia laughed briskly.
She then turned her head and looked at Esmeralda, as if she were right.
Esmeralda’s desperate crisis finally came.
‘I don’t have a gift… …. If you knew, maybe give me a tip in advance.’
The seat is uncomfortable.
When the hell did it start?
As soon as she thought she had an open relationship with Irina, Esmeralda could find her outsider at her party.
Could it be that she was the only one who thought she was a friend? She opened up with Irina, she still thinks that she is only her friend.
She’s not Milia, she’s the hottie. Couldn’t she be herself?
The sense of entitlement that comes from the difference in social status.
Esmeralda, like a girl of her age, had such worries.
“Hero. Take this.”
Esmeralda, who was examining her mood with her head bowed, found an object stabbing her in the waist.
Looking up, I saw Irina handing a wrapped present behind her back with a shy smile.
Yes, after all, she, Irina, was her friend.
She even prepared her share of presents in case of her unexpected situation.
“Milia, happy birthday. It’s a mediocre item, but it’s a gift.”
“Yes, thank you Esmeralda.”
Milia received Esmeralda’s gift again with a bashful smile.
Fortunately, there seems to be no such thing as discrimination. Milia must have been genuinely happy, so she unwrapped her gift on the spot.
What came out of it was a book.
[What is a castle?]
[Recommended books for ages 10-12]
“Oh… …. Ahahahaha. I’m thinking of some urgent business, so I’ll be away for a while.”
That was also the book Irina was reading.
Irina thought about searching her arms for a moment, then she cautiously left her seat with an awkward smile.
Milia still held up the book with a face that did not change much.
She could see others peeking at the book she held up with both hands facing forward.
“… ….”
The surrounding air is getting colder.
The dagger for social assassination stabbed by Irina by surprise pierced Esmeralda’s heart.
Yes, the two were becoming true friends in real time.
Of course, Irina didn’t mean to do that. It’s just that her book gift to Milia was just accidentally reversed.
Did I make a mistake during the packaging process?
Apart from that, I never thought that Milia would unwrap the gift right here.
If you are aristocratic, there will be more than one gift to receive, but normally, it is natural to go through a separate confirmation process in preparation for an assassination threat.
The horrors created that way.
The case of a hero’s external face murder.
“Isn’t that an insult?”
“Milia-nim said she wasn’t interested in anything but magic…….”
Milia held her book straight in front of her for a while, and then she looked up at Esmeralda and said,
“I’ll read it later and tell you my impressions.”
“…… There is no need for that.”
Milia seemed unconcerned.
Her shape is as wide as her heart is as much as her huge breasts.
It was different from Irina, who had a small heart compared to her breasts.
Is it because of Milia’s attitude?
“Well, Millia-sama has never read a book like that.”
“If you’re a hero, you’re someone you used to travel with. She must have known it well. After all, he only knows magic.”
People who had been grinding Esmeralda to powder just a moment ago turned their palms over in an instant.
Esmeralda desperately realized what kind of organization the Magic Tower was.
And the fact that social life is so scary.
She didn’t look good to be honest.
“Yes, the foundation is important.”
Yes or no.
Milia seemed to like it no matter what, as she held the book in her arms and smiled.
The sight made Esmeralda’s heart ache even more.
Esmeralda was full of thoughts that she just wanted to get out of her place as soon as possible in her humiliating situation.
And if she leaves her seat, she will find Irina and kill her.
‘Irina…… I’ll beat you to death and then throw them as dog food.’
Esmeralda came up with an idea that a hero shouldn’t do.
***
Esmeralda searched for Irina in the most decent manner possible.
Of course, as was the case with her Celestial Church, she concealed her body with silver tassels.
If she knows she is being sought, she is more likely to run away or hide.
So, in order to capture her Irina, it means you have to use her complete surprise without her noticing.
Fortunately, however, the anger that had risen to the top of her head during the process of looking for Irina has subsided somewhat.
‘For now, I’ll pardon her to the point of peeling off her skin.’
Esmeralda commuted her sentence due to her compassionate attitude.
I have been searching for Irina for about 30 minutes. To her surprise, Irina was waiting for her in her own room.
No, was it because she knew she wouldn’t be able to get away for long anyway?
Irina had built her fortress in her own room.
If Esmeralda finds you, don’t rush to attack her.
So that she won’t be surprised.
If you can think of Esmeralda, you can think of her too.
But there was something she couldn’t even think of.
“Do you think that will stop it?”
It is this reckless personality that made Esmeralda what she is today.
Kwajik!
Esmeralda drew her holy sword and inserted it into her barrier.
As expected, an item that is said to have been created by the gods.
Irina’s barrier can easily be torn apart.
Quad Deuk!
Esmeralda tore Irina’s barrier with a wide smile.
Now, the resulting wave is spreading all over the Magic Tower.
Esmeralda had to finish her work quickly before the others rushed in, so she immediately grabbed Irina by the collar and dragged her.
“…… Warrior, it’s my fault. However, it was all a mistake. And I never imagined that I would open the packaging right on the spot! No, what kind of surname does a person have such a sense of crisis?”
To be honest, Irina felt unfair too. Who knew it would turn out like this
She was thinking of giving her a decent book as a gift. She had prepared the Bible of the Celestial Church.
She was thinking of giving her a symbolic object that she usually carries, but she just forgot that the book she was carrying recently wasn’t the Bible.
In the first place, Milia was also Milia.
It was right for her to hide it immediately after checking it, not to spread it out as if to show off. What do you mean by showing off a book to brag about?
The foolishness of her for daring to ask for common sense from the members of the warrior party.
That’s Irina’s sin.
“If you had stabbed someone, I believe you would have been prepared to be stabbed.”
The time has come to hit the mark.
Physically kill Irina for killing Esmeralda’s social position.
“Now, now. Ah do Corn Harvesting. I’m also from the countryside, so I’m pretty confident about this.”
Gentleman madness.
The former farmer’s confident words made Irina realize that Esmeralda’s words were highly reliable.
“Wait a minute!!”
Irina felt the sincerity of her Esmeralda and made a hasty excuse.
She must be forgiven somehow.
Wasn’t it an unfortunate accident?
Of course, if there is a victim due to an unfortunate accident, it is necessary to investigate the cause of the accident.
Of course, whether Esmeralda would consider it an accident is another matter.
“Wait a minute! Don’t you ever think that’s weird?!”
Fortunately, Esmeralda is simple, so if her mind is distracted elsewhere, there is a high probability that she will forget this incident.
“If you’re thinking of fooling me with that big tongue again, you’d better give up. No, why don’t you try it? From now on, I will go out on corn and lose my pronunciation!”
But no matter how stupid Esmeralda is, there’s no way she can’t see through such an obvious trick.
Still, Irina did her best.
“Milia-sama! Maybe she knew it all!”
“That’s new bullsh*t again. Let me talk to you sometime.”
Esmeralda, who was socially killed, was quite rough.
To the extent that even Irina is sick of her.
Yes, she felt uneasy, as if she had encountered the worst of life without even thinking about the aftermath.
“First of all, Millia knows that Jim is a demon.”
“Well, if you think about what you knew, it’s a story that could happen. It’s cliché. In fact, she also knew Tina, so why don’t we say she’s half-dragon?”
“…… It seemed like no one else knew, but Tina-sama didn’t.”
Esmeralda was subtly moved.
Tina was her only safe asset at the warrior party overflowing with all kinds of liars and swindlers.
“Impress you later. The important thing is that Millia-sama has a crush on Jim as much as I do.”
“No, he must be more likable than you?”
A b*tch who rolls her eyes when she hears that Jim is in danger. Can I just call that a crush?
Esmeralda tilted her head.
“Anyway, in that situation, the hero and I ended up leaving. Aren’t you suspicious?”
“What… …. Do you think everyone in the world is a b*tch like you?”
This is a disease. And fists have been a special medicine that heals people with mental illness since ancient times.
“Among the many gifts, you only opened the presents for the hero! Moreover, he gave me a sense of pressure with his gaze, subtly asking for a gift. Even if it wasn’t given, the hero would have been socially killed? Alas! Stop!”
Esmeralda listened to Irina’s nonsense with one ear and shed it. Before autumn ended, she was about to harvest Irina’s corn before it was too late.
For a moment, her fist stopped.
It’s not because Irina’s corn is pure white that it doesn’t seem like it’s time to harvest yet.
Wouldn’t it be a good way to do it later?
In that sense, the reason Esmeralda had no choice but to stop was elsewhere.
“… ….”
To be honest, what Irina was saying was just an excuse.
Isn’t she constantly arguing incoherent words in order to stay alive?
There is no such thing as speculation.
But regardless of that, Esmeralda remembered that Jim was still with Milia.
Esmeralda eventually freed Irina. This is not the time when her colleagues are causing infighting among themselves.
“…… Warrior?”
“Th-Now that I think about it, I don’t think we’re meant to be like this, right?”
“Yes?”
“There’s something I didn’t tell you about before. At the party earlier, Miria had a new trait?”
I didn’t pay attention to it because of the gift commotion, but there was a characteristic that came into being while I was changing my clothes for a while.
I knew that Milia was a great talent, so she honestly said that there is no problem even if she learned her magic in a short time.
But if there is a problem…….
“If you can only put your luggage in your hands, does it matter if you live or die?”
[Death Magic Lv. 2]
It was that she suddenly started to break through her necromancer route.
