Caught ya...

Louise and Raizen return to the academy the same day and the musketeers were still teaching military drills to the student.

The next day, Eleonore and Cattleya still came to teach at the academy about combat magic. But the one who will mostly teach is Eleonore.

While Eleonore was busy making the students survive. Cattleya approaches the table of Raizen where some familiars are with him.

Cattleya: "They like you"

R: "They were just bored because their master need to survive and we just accompanying each other."

Cat: "I heard that my sister only spars with musketeers or with this Julio that came from Romalia."

R: "Julio was sent by the pope to monitor and protect Louise. They know that she is a void mage."

Cat: "Void mage?"

R: "..."

After the info dump later...

Cat: "So Louise is one of these void mages and when someone emerges, the other three will also be born to either stop a catastrophe or be the doom of the world."

R: "Last time they emerge is six thousand years ago. That is from Derflinger's story."

Cat: "Whos Derflinger?"

Raizen then shows her Derf...

Derf: "Nice to meet you. Well, I did meet you but I was on the sheath."

Cat: "How can he "see" if he doesn't have any eyes?"

R: "He has a very advance magic sense. He sees figures and textures. This way he can also read because he "feels" the surface of a paper. He also has some runes engraved to him that help with the process. A teleportation spell in case of emergency but rather random."

Cat: "He is one unique sword"

R: "Yeah, I'm planning to upgrade him so that he can fly by himself and fly back to his current user."

Cattleya didn't reply to that and just stared at the covered face of Raizen.

Cat: "I have decided to get to know you better. Then I want to meet your wife and talk to her."

R: "Then, when you fall for me without seeing my face I will grant your one wish that is within my power."

Cat: "Deal"

The two of them shake hands. Then they started getting to know each other while being surrounded by other familiars. When Louise was done with her spar, she and her sister Eleonore came to the table of Raizen and were surprised to see Cattleya was happy chatting with him. On the table were refreshments and Raizen offer them some to regain their strength.

Later that evening, I asked Saeko in the time chamber if she wants to meet Cattleya. I didn't say much but she already knows why I'm asking.

Saeko: "So this, "Cattleya Yvette La Baume Le Blanc de La Fontaine", hmmm a mouthful. Is a potential sister of mine?"

R: "Not exactly, to be honest, I didn't have the thought of picking one in this world because I want to still be with you alone. I even told her how old I am by estimate. But here I am, asking your guidance."

Saeko: "You did not plan it like you did not plan to fall in love with me for your first world."

R: "When you said it like that, it sounded like a forced event. Besides, if I'm going to meet another woman then I will not do it to you behind your back."

Saeko: *smiles* "Good... Then I will meet her. Give me a moment."

Outside the time chamber on an open field in the academy.

Cattleya: "Where have you been? You suddenly disappear in front of me."

R: "I just talked with my wife about you and she said that you and her should meet."

Cat: "Meet where?"

The two of them disappear from the open field.

R: "Welcome to my time chamber, where a day outside is equivalent to 100000 years inside."

Cat: "Amazing... Is this smoke covering this "time chamber"." *seeing the energy as smoke because of how high it is compared to outside*

R: "What you were seeing is spirit essence mixed with this world magic essence."

Cat: "I thought essence was invisible."

R: "Not if there is a lot of it in one place. Anyway, those explanations can be done later if my wife approves of you. Any memories about this place will be taken from you like what I did to take the image of my face when she deems you incapable of loving me for a long time."

Raizen then guided Cattleya to the only house inside the chamber.

When Cattleya saw the house, the design is something she has not seen before. It looks neat and clean. A front lawn with beautiful flowers that almost glows and at the back of the house were trees of different sizes. On the left side were farm animals and further up ahead were wheat fields. On the right are a giant lake and a separated pond for fishes and marine animals?

Getting inside the house, she is curious about all the things she is just seeing for the first time. Like a light bulb in the ceiling to the fan rotating.

R: "I know you are curious and there is a library for all the things you see in here but you should meet my wife first in her dojo."

Cat: "Dojo?"

R: "You will see"

A few seconds later, they arrived in a Japanese theme dojo where Saeko was waiting for them. Raizen insists for Cattleya to come over inside the dojo leaving her footwear outside the room.

Cattleya is now sitting in front of Saeko.

Saeko: "I am Saeko Busujima, the first wife of Raizen. Let's start shall we."

Raizen, while outside, close the door of the dojo and left the two to their girl talk. He also left the time chamber to let them have their time with each other.

Before going inside the room of Louise, a loud sound was heard in the direction of the office of principal Osmond.

Like in the anime, an investigation was made to find the "fake" rings. Agnes asks for Raizen's cooperation while sidelong glancing at her right-hand musketeer who is asking principal Osmond for details. Osmond said that if they find the suspect, they need to see a pentagram mark in their left breast where he was able to put a magic seal when the culprit tried to run away. The mark cannot be cleared by even a triangle class mage. Agnes suggested putting Raizen and Michel(M1) together to inspect the teachers. While she and Julio inspect the students.

Michel then split up with Raizen which he just shrugs off and continues their investigation. He then knocks on Eleonore's door room that she opens it after a few seconds. He walks inside and closes the door.

Ele: "What are you doing here?! Do you know what time it is?!"

R: "Sorry about that. Someone stole a precious item from principal Osmond's office and I am here for investigation."

Ele: "Do I look like I would steal some item in the academy?"

R: "Not really, no. This is just for formality. The captain of the musketeers already has a suspect but she doesn't have the evidence so she is buying time. While I already know the culprit, I was just bored and thought that I would want to see the beautiful sisters of Louise."

Ele: "Beautiful? If I'm beautiful, why did he retract the marriage proposal?"

R: "Ahh... Young love... Have you've been with someone that takes control of your every move?"

Ele: "No, because they can't." *closed her eyes while stating the obvious*

R: "Maybe that is why you haven't found love yet."

Ele: "What do yo-" *opened her eyes*

Raizen has already left when she opened her eyes.

The whole investigation only took less than 45 minutes because of the low amount of people that can use earth magic. Now Agnes, Michel, Julio, Eleonore, and Raizen are in Cattleya's room.

Michel found out that Cattleya was noting her room while the whole incident with the ring is happening. So she is now a prime suspect for the crime.

Michel: "She has been gone on her room when the investigation was happening"

Julio: "You were implying that miss Cattleya is the one who stole the two fake rings?"

Michel: "Yes."

Raizen: "But where are the rings?"

Michel: "When I and my captain were searching the room of miss Cattleya, I found the fake rings in one of the drawers with lingerie. If you boys came, you will not try to look for the rings in that place."

R: "You are right, we can't."

Michel then gives the rings to Agnes and asks Eleonore where her sister is.

R: "If she can't be found then let's call principal Osmond to inspect the rings and hide them away again. I am sure if the culprit knows that her plan failed the first time, she might try again, yes?"

Agnes accepts the proposal because the "culprit" was not in the room so they can't detain just anybody. A few moments later, Osmond was there with the group, and Agnes handed to him the rings.

R: "Principal Osmond, do you still have the magic stamp that you use to mark the culprit?"

Osmond: "Yes"

R: "Can I borrow it for a second, I want to try a tracking spell that I created when training Louise with her magic."

Agnes was the only one who saw that Michel flinches on her spot with the mention of a tracking spell. Osmond handed the stamp to Raizen then his hands started to glow.

R: "I made some improvements with the spell. Other than tracking, it will inflict a disabling spell that will numb the person's body"

The glow in his hands intensifies but suddenly disappears.

R: "Huh... Weird, I thought I cast it..."

Michel: "KYAAAA" *sparks of lightning were dancing around her body*

R: "...right. It actually works."

Agnes then walks up to Michel and reveals her chest which is a blessing for principal Osmond. He then walks to Raizen and said his thanks.

The case of the ring's thief was close. Now Agnes was talking to Michel about why she did that and who instigated her to do it. Agnes told that Lishman was the one who drive Michel's father to commit suicide and order to burn the village of Agnes which she is the only one surviving.

The next day at the palace, the queen and her musketeer captain is planning a trap for a rat that has been plaguing the country.

Raizen and Louise were back at the Charming Fairies Inn with the order to stand by while Agnes was doing other works. The people of the inn welcome them and told them that they were lucky because they were going to perform at the Taniariji Royal Theater later in the evening. They were asked to join because the Inn was lacking in staff which they did not decline.

In the evening, Julio came to the inn knowing that Louise and Raizen were there. He partied with the girls until its time for them to prepare for the show.

While Raizen was taking out the bottles outside, someone bump into him.

??: "Is the shop "Charming Fairies Inn" around here?"

R: "Maybe... Let's get you inside first before you get sick from the rain and Louise berate me about not taking good care of her friend"

??: "What...?"

Raizen drags the lady inside the in and guides her towards the quarters of Louise.

R: "You know, the reason I gave you the golems is that things like putting yourself in danger will be avoided."

QHen: "How did you know it was me?"

Raizen pointed to an open space to the side then two golems given to Henrietta showed themselves.

R: "Other than the five thousand that I have given you, I also made sure that you were always protected."

Henrietta was happy that he thinks of her that way. She didn't even know that she was being followed.

QHen: "But a plan was being in motion so I can't stop now"

R: "So it's time for you to clean up the country?

QHen: "Yes"

R: "ok... What do you need for this plan of your?"

QHen: "Well... I want you to be my bodyguard for a few minutes until the start of the show at the theater."

Raizen just facepalmed which almost break the mask he was wearing.

Later that evening or the cast has been placed and the show will almost start. Raizen was looking at the two opponents that were already started. Both their pawns were clashing against each other and the mastermind just got into the trap. The only thing you hear down is a last scream of agony. Raizen then stop the action of the enemy troops which made the soldiers of Queen Henrietta confused but she ordered to capture them and be sent to jail.

The country was in chaos when most of the officials were put on trial. Evidence of malpractice, human experiments, human trafficking, treason, and many more were laid bare for the people of Tristain to see. Those who had crimes against the kingdom itself were sentenced to death while the others were sentenced to work in mines. All assets that those people have were seized by the country and to be put in the treasury. People were afraid that their lives will drastically be changed but the queen promise stability within weeks. Within two weeks, the country is stable and the lives of the people were secured. They know that the queen did something to help the country making it a safer place. An example of change is gambling where it is being monitored by the government and taxed so a portion of profit will go to the country's treasury. Other businesses were also monitored by the country to not be the birthplace of problems.

The country now has enough funds to support the war effort. The two trusted aid suggested that the queen should declare war on Albion where they will ally themselves to Germania. The queen was hesitant but in the end, was convinced to go to war. In a week, the combined forces of Tristania and Germania took the port town of Albion which give a morale boost to both armies.

Before Queen Henrietta goes to the frontlines, Agnes wants to know the name of the captain of her foe. She ask for permission from the queen but was denied by principal Osmond. She was seen by Julio having this problem and then he looked for Louise and Raizen for help.

Louise: "You want to go to this "library" to know your enemy?"

R: "What happens then? What would you do after you kill this person?"

Agns: "I will serve my queen and die"

R: "hmm... *looking at Agnes* ...here"

Raizen gives two thick books to Agnes.

Agns: "What are these?"

R: "Records of the group that destroyed Dungletale years ago. Although they are just copies from the original."

Julio: "That was anti-climactic. I was expecting an adventure knowing the truth to the problem of Agnes."

Louise: "Why do you even have that? Does principal Osmond know?"

R: "NoPe"

The two just sigh while Agnes was reading the two books.

Agns: "Are these the only copies? Are there any more books about the past 20 years?"

R: "There are but these two were the last. After that, the group disbanded because the captain retired early."

Agns: "The name of the captain, have you seen it? A part was missing and the name was erased by burning the parts of the book."

R: "I also read it a couple of timed before but whenever the captain was mentioned, the name will be omitted."

Agnes just slammed the table in frustration.
