— You truly appreciate traditions, — the inquisitor said, — I would gladly listen to your stories about the customs of your homeland. Well, if you happen to have some free time.

- Oh... Right, sorry... Bad joke, - Beata became more serious. - Yeah... You're right.
- Our boss just runs so fast that she travels through time and can be in two places at once, - Gillon snorted.

—Not exactly. To put it briefly, there was one country, not a hegemon like Welfern, but extremely developed compared to its neighbors, both in science and in magic, especially in the latter. It was a republic, although one specific, very cunning and deceitful person managed to gain power in the senate... This is actually why I don't like democracies; such power is a breeding ground for intrigues and corruption, which are practically impossible to overcome without an iron fist. This person initiated one grand project, and when enemies attacked the country, he got scared and decided to launch it without conducting final tests. His argument was: we built it for such cases, who knows what we haven't finished, I know better! Well, and that's it, you can guess what happened next. The leakage of infinite mana turned the city and a large area around it into a wasteland... But not the whole world, and not even the whole country, the problem is that all this had unlimited potential for growth, and what happened to my world centuries later, frankly, I don't know. I once had ambitions to stop that device, but I failed, unfortunately.

—Actually, I'm all for it, as soon as a suitable opportunity arises. I've already mentioned that the more people become interested in my homeland, the easier it will be to start its restoration. It's just a pity that I didn't pay enough attention to my native culture at the time. —added the knight, not wanting to distort someone else's setting with his fantasies any more than he already had.

—In that case, I will gladly take you up on your offer! In principle,” the inquisitor thoughtfully stroked her chin, “you could even write a book about it, perhaps with the help of other people from your homeland. In theory, it would help with finding like-minded individuals.

—Heh, well, I don't think it's just about speed. I can run very fast too. —The knight folded his arms and studied the commander with an attentive gaze. —I think it's a matter of high extroversion: while I manage to formulate one answer to someone's remark in my head, she has already spoken with ten people.

—In that case, please accept my condolences. I won't ask where you learned about the arguments of this senator, but I hope that the situation in your world has improved in the end. Magic is a useful tool, but it still requires due wisdom and caution when used. I've read about something similar in the world of Baldur, actually. They say that a certain king-sorcerer from a distant land decided to perform a sinister ritual, as a result of which he himself died, a considerable part of his kingdom turned into a desolate wasteland, but in other parts of the world, the veil began to tear. Let's hope that nothing like that happens here.

Neither Kiliki nor Astellii were present, but Zostmer was 🤡

Kiliki and Astellii weren't there, but Zostmer was 🤡

The knight rests her chin on the back of her hand and looks at him intently, surprised by his behavior.

-- Seriously? You want to work for us?

- And thank you, Regina-san, - she replies with a nod.

- Well, are we going to start slowly? - to the others.

- Please tell me where I can find you if needed? Please don't think I'm being intrusive or rude, but I try to value new acquaintances, and you seem like an exceptionally pleasant woman.

- Yes, let's. But let's have a snack first. - Someone from the group replied.

- Miko-sama, - said Sonato, who was standing behind Ayaono Yun. - Can I talk to you for a moment?
