I Became the Fiancé of a Dragon in Romance Fantasy

Chapter 47 – Social gathering (2)

[Physis's POV]

Acting?

Yes.

What are you talking about?

Its simple. You and I will be pretending to have a big fight.

Only then I understood her intentions.

If we act cold in social gatherings, pretending to fight among ourselves, those who want to use me to harm Adilun will surely come to me, so shouldn't I remember those names?

I understand. If I act like you and I had a fight, those who want to harm you will approach me, and at that time I should make a list of those Is that correct?

Exactly.

Then we will have to make a justification for fighting, do you have anything in mind?

Umm

Adilun seemed to struggle for a moment, then clapped once as if she had remembered something and spoke to me.

I think you and I should act like we used to.

Like we used to... this was probably about how we looked before I became aware of my previous life.

The way I behaved when I spat out all sorts of insults and harsh words at her.

What? No, wait. Adilun. thats kinda

When I vehemently rejected her proposal, Adilun gave me a puzzled expression.

Seeing her like that I continued.

Didnt I promise just yesterday? I will never say anything harsh to you again.

Aaaa . I-Im fine, so its fine. You can do it.

She said to me even as her face turned red as if she had again remembered what happened yesterday.

But still

When I spoke to her with a reluctant expression, she waved her hand, saying it was okay.

Hey, okay, shall we do some practice beforehand?

Right now?

Yes.

No, Ill be the only one in trouble if someone comes in, so Ill have to decline.

What I said was true, the moment someone bursts in and saw me lashing out at Adilun, Rodenov will flip again.

Well I know that too. Oh. I will tell you about the people to be careful of.

Yes.

I straightened my posture again and began to listen to Adilun.

First of all, William Devarton, who is hosting this social gathering. He has a strong self-judgment and strong arrogance. His skills are quite good, but More precisely, he has the skill of one decent knight. There is a high possibility that he will feel jealous of you because you have gained great fame through the great duel and National Foundation Day this time.

If I pretend to fight you, he will approach you.

At my question, Adilun nodded.

Yes There is a high possibility that he will approach me after seeing your changed appearance. Originally, he was one of the candidates for my fiance, so he might approach me while emphasizing that fact.

'What fact.'

I really dont like that.

Oh, its just a possibility, a possibility. Let go of that face. I have no intention of being friends with such a guy.

She said to me with a surprised expression as I clenched my teeth.

If you look closely, I was one of those goons

At least you didnt have a history with women. It was just that you were very violent. But this time, can you act like a fool? That way we can sort it out for sure.

Ha. Okay. And who is next?

Next Selina Idenea. She is the daughter of Count Idenea. Shes pretty good-looking, has a strong vanity, and believes she should always be the best. She is also a person who likes to make a fool out of a group of people.

Then That woman must hate you.

Yes. Quite a bit. If we get caught, she will probably try her best to bite me.

Adilun was a princess of Rodenov, but also a person who was good at magic, so if the aspect of appearance was excluded, there would be no way for Selina to defeat Adilun.

Especially this time, as Adilun didn't have her scales, Selina wont be able to win against her even with her looks, so the jealousy will explode more.

But Adilun.

Yes?

People who are on your side or people who are not... Isnt it enough to know that?

No.

Adilun shook her head.

Those who have already been revealed are not important. Besides them, there must be quite a few people who are against me. At this social gathering, I intend to sort them all out. So Please.

Okay, Adilun. If you say so.

And You are the one who has not to fall for other princesses. I have no intention of allowing someone who is called my fianc to approach another woman.

Hahahahaha. Okay. That will never happen.

For now, lets put this aside. And about the social gathering .As soon as the date is clear, I will tell you.

Yes. Then what are you planning to do now?

Well I do not know. Do you want to watch magic training?

Magic training? That sounds good.

Then let's go. Recently, I had to neglect my magic training due to various things But Good for you...

Hey?

Hmmm

I just wanna know one more thing?

What?

How can I hug you again this time?

I said spitefully to her.

Ah! Enough!! Stop teasing me!!!

Her face turned red, and she screamed at me.

.

.

.

.

This is my magic workshop.

Adilun's magic workshop was connected to her study, but it was a fairly large space. It seemed to be a magically constructed space.

In the magic workshop, the smell of paper was thicker than what I felt in the study, and the paper was stained and speckled with ink that hadnt dried yet.

Seeing as the crumpled papers stood out at times, it seemed that it was also a space where she went through many trials and errors.

Here

Also, there were remains of what seemed to be traces of magic all over the place. It seemed that the series of processes of constructing a theory about magic and actually using it were all done here.

No wonder. There was no trace of magic in the training ground at all.

If there was a space like this, She wouldnt even need it.

Nice.

Yes? Is this nice? Isn't this messy?

As she said, the workshop was actually quite messy; Books and stacks of paper scattered here and there, with spots scorched or frozen by magic.

It was a space that could not be said to be clean even with sugar coating, but rather, it felt like a space that was faithful to its purpose.

Isnt it a space that is faithful to its purpose? I would say that this is cool to see how much Adilun is interested in magic and how much effort she puts in.

Oh, well. Thanks... I guess?

Its a compliment, so theres no need to make such an ambiguous expression.

I see. Anyway, is there anything you want to see?

I do not know. Im not that knowledgeable about magic. I just want to see how you practice your magic, is that okay?

In my previous life, there was no study of magic itself, so I had no choice but to be unfamiliar with magic. In the first place, even in this life, the family I belonged to was a knight family thoroughly, so it was not easy to come into contact with wizards.

There is nothing that cannot be done. It doesnt matter if someone sees it in the first place.

Uh. does that happen? I dont think the other wizards were like that.

They and I have different bloodlines. Perhaps there are significant differences in the way they and I use magic? For example, I dont take orders. I dont even need tools to use magic.

Why is that?

My body itself is no different from a magic tool. Usually, the efficacy of tools for using magic is to make it easier to collect mana and to handle mana They are like instincts to me.

To my question, she replied with a shrug.

Aha

Well, its because Im of dragon blood. Thats why I said earlier that it doesnt matter. My magic is difficult even for a wizard to understand.

You are amazing.

Well Well, You have been through a lot, so shouldnt I have this level of ability?

Certainly, considering the insults and things she must have received That didn't look like a very good reward to me.

Moreover, Adilun was a princess of Rodenov. Even if she didnt know magic, she could have lived comfortably for the rest of her life.

Then Im going to practice magic Are you okay? You wouldnt be having fun.

Fine. I havent experienced magic often, so I think it will be amazing and fun to watch.

If so . Then dont talk to me because I need to concentrate from now on. There was a magic I was thinking about recently.

Alright.

She held a thick book in her hand and stepped into a slightly wider area, there were no magic materials in her hand. After that, she opened the book and began to concentrate.

Instantly, a strong wind blew through the room, and a small mass of light began to form in front of her. As if considerable power had been condensed into a huge mass, the space around it began to distort.

Soon, her bluish-white horns gradually glowed brightly and began to pour mana into a ball of light. The word that her body itself was a magic tool seemed to come from those horns.

The raging wind stopped, and the shape of the light mass seemed to stabilize little by little.

But...

Oh!

Accompanied by Adiluns bewildered cry, the mass of light trembled unsteadily, and finally...

-BAANG! 

It made a noise and exploded.

'This is not good.'

I caught her momentarily as she was about to fall backward.

Are you okay?

Oh, thank you. This is... Its a new magic Ive been thinking about lately But It doesnt work very well. Hehehe.

What magic? It felt like a very powerful force.

That is the star of hope. I put my wish into magic. So that it can become magic that can change in any way. For example, if I want to annihilate my enemies, I give them a powerful shock, and if I want to heal someone, I heal It is magic that is close to all-powerful.

Is that even possible?

'It can hold hope. Isnt it almost Gods realm?' I thought.

I do not know. I was convinced that it was theoretically possible, but as expected, it is quite difficult to directly put ones wishes into magic. No matter how strongly I wish, if I have a moments idle thoughts, It will immediately fail.

Thats great, Adilun.

I didnt even succeed, so I feel a little embarrassed.

But thats almost the realm of the gods, isnt it?

God Actually, its not even that grand. Its just a manifestation of a wide range of magic. Instead, it would be that I determine that attribute.

That alone is great.

Well, I feel better hearing from you. I have to say I feel a little bit recognized. Anyway, I think I need to think a little more, but if you get bored waiting, you can go first.

She smiled lightly as she said that, and I shook my head.

I dont have anything to do anyway, and since Ive finished my training earlier, so its okay. Its even more interesting than I thought.

Well. Then I get it. You are good to stay.

Alright.

After she got out of my arms, she went to the desk attached to the workshop and began playing with the pen nonstop, holding her head.
