Chapter 23: part 2 - Plotter
***
Whoo shamelessness in action. . Patreon,
In coming separation bam. Line break? Nononono moving pictures! Or unmoving Im not sure how this works.
Dinner turned out to be a feast.
Nice to meet you, Im Sierras mama, Maria.
At the head of the table sat Brown, Sierras father.
To think wed get to meet this early, after Sierras story about Masamune-kun last night I thought Id like to meet you at least once.
It seems Ive been recognized by her father as well, Sierra seemed to be fluent in not keeping secrets. The door to the room opened and another girl appeared.
Ahh Hilda, welcome home!
Im home. She looked over at me. Welcome.
Pardon my intrusion.
It was Sierras sister.
Hilda-chan this is Masamune-kun and Toa-chan.
Pleased to meet you I am Sierras older sister Hilda.
She arrived at her seat and began to talk about the incident at Tanya village. Concealment, whats that? Does nobody know the meaning of the word anymore?
Thank you for helping Sierra.
Hilda had the same silver hair as Sierra, it appeared to be hereditary as Maria too was silver haired.
It seems you also helped her out today as well.
Ah, the kerane, wait how did she know about that?
My sister is also a Royal White Knight like myself. Sierra explained. It appeared information about me had been leaked to the entire family.
Both sisters serve the country, and are part of the Royal White Knights to boot. Id expect nothing less.
Hilda was humble. It appeared that since childhood the two of them walked the path of the sword. As a knight of the kingdom Hildas skill was recognized and she was chosen for the Royal White knights. At the same time Sierra became a knight of the realm. And just two years ago Sierra was chosen to be apart of the white knights as well.
I see, so you two would be considered geniuses.
Oh no were far from being geniuses, if you wanna know about a genius its definitely Reinhardt. Hilda said. He became a White Knight at 12 years old.
Although Masamune is in a totally different league. Sierra added.
Hilda looked up at me, she probably knew what happened in the old Town. No, there is no way a white knight didnt know.
Sister quit looking at Masamune-dono like that. Please be careful Masamune-dono my sister wont let any man shes interested in escape, shes like a snake.
I often said such things about my own sister, it seems they get along well.
Youve gotta be kidding, Im the ideal older sister, give me some credit.
Masamune-dono is off limits, hes a guest. Theres no point acting like this trying to rip off some metaphorical mask.
Guest? Dont you mean hes your boyfriend?
Him being my boyfriend or not is not the problem here!
Well then Ill ask him directly. Masamune-kun what do you think about Sierra.
Hilda looked at me grinning while Sierra turned a bright red.
What are you saying sister.
Its fine Im asking the person we are talking about.
Im asking why we are talking about this.
Shut up! Toa suddenly shouted.
Toa held a glass of wine in her left hand, an empty bottle in front of her.
Toa, you didnt. You seriously drank the whole thing?
I apologized to Maria and bowed my head.
Its fine, dont worry about it. We havent seen Sierra having this much fun in a while and were having fun too.
We have lots of wine, please drink what you like.
Brown brought another bottle, how generous.
Its because I want to tell Sierra. That Masamune is My.
Toa its dangerous so sit down. Toa stared at me.
OK.
Toa obediently sat down.
. Toa?
She had leaned against me and apparently fell directly to sleep.
Looks like Sierra has a rival.
Sister dont say stupid things!
Well I think Ill head off to sleep as well. Goodnight everyone.
And just like that Hilda left the room. It seems she had just wanted to tease Sierra.
Im sorry.
No worries, she seemed like a fun person.
Dont be fooled, thats her strategy.
Ill keep that in mind, but first I should put Toa to bed. Where should I carry her to?
Oh sorry, Ill show you.
I laid Toa on the bed.
When we first met Toa-dono, why did she only open her heart to you?
I havent asked yet. Ill try and find out later.
When you find out, tell me.
Sure.
Covering Toa with a blanket we left the room and I was shown to my own sleeping arrangement.
Masamune-dono, uhm Are you free tomorrow?
I mean, yeah. I was going to go take a request tomorrow but whats up?
I thought I could teach you the sword tomorrow.
Oh right, she promised too on the carriage, didnt she.
OK, well then Ill be in your care tomorrow.
OK! She replied happily. Goodnight!
Saying that Sierra walked off to her own room. As she did she had a happy expression on her face.
So Sierra can make that expression too huh.
Was it unexpected?
Hilda appeared.
Did you need something?
Is it true you defeated Raid?
It seems that was the result.
For Toa?
What did she want me to say?
Ive heard most of it but I didnt understand the relationship between you. But looking at it its easy to understand, she loves you and you love her.
I dont think thats.
How about adding Sierra to that?
Im sorry?
This is the first time shes held any interest in a man. Until now all that shes cared about is the sword, shes never brought anyone home.
What kind of childhood did Sierra have exactly?
So when you eventually leave this country, why not take Sierra with you? She doesnt know anything but the sword and before I realized she was already a White Knight. But thats just sad, she should know about more things than just the sword.
I dont mind but. What would Sierra say?
You dont have to ask her now, you can ask her just before you leave. For now just enjoy your time here.
Hilda left after saying that. What in the world was she thinking Today was exhausting, crawling into bed, I looked back on the day. And just like that, I fell asleep.
