Princess' personal painter

"Of course, when I met Irene for the first time, I felt like old friends at first sight." Sisyana turned her head and smiled. In her words, she did not hide her love for Irene at all. When we met, I was still thinking, could this be the legendary "encounter of fate"?"

Even though it was Elaine who said this, Irene's heart skipped a beat when she heard it, her heart was both sweet and flustered.In order to conceal her strange mood, Irene turned her attention to this graceful dragon trainer, and said in a low voice, "Thanks to Madam for taking care of me."

"You don't need to be polite to me." Elaine smiled, "Sia and I are called sisters, so you can call me sister too."

Irene hesitated, only to hear Elaine say again: "I also treat Unica as a younger sister. But this child has a bit of an awkward personality, and she refuses to recognize me as a sister. What about Huai...Sister Erin, you probably wouldn't do the same thing, would you?"

"Sister Elaine..." Irene whispered with her cheeks burning.

Always feel that since when did I set up a strange flag?

This is the third one...so everyone wants to recognize me as a younger sister, what the hell is that?

Irene complained silently in her heart, while Elaine on the side had already chatted with Sisyana, and she said with emotion: "When I heard that you saved a girl, I was thinking about it. , it really is the daughter of that princess, even the things she does are exactly the same."

Ten years ago, also due to the massacre by Charles' army, the young Eunika brothers and sisters escaped from Caroline and sought refuge with Princess Wakabayashi, Sisyana's mother, who was on her way home to visit relatives.At that time, despite the persuasion of her subordinates, the princess decided to take the two of them in, which saved their lives.

After the two children at that time grew up, they became the most trustworthy subordinates and partners of the youngest daughter Sisyana.

"Sow good deeds and bear good fruits...there is still such a standard in the world."

As he said that, Elaine looked at the Unika brothers and sisters not far away, then returned to Irene, and asked curiously: "When we met a few days ago, I didn't feel it. Sister Irene There is an aura of a 'beginner', so it must have been awakened in the past few days, right?"

Irene was slightly taken aback, still thinking about how to answer, then she heard Sisyana beside her say helplessly: "It was the night before yesterday, but luckily it worked, I was not in vain for keeping watch all night."

"My lord is obviously asleep." Irene said in a low voice.

Pretending not to hear Irene's complaints, Sisyana continued to introduce: "However, Irene's magic seems to belong to a very special type. At least I haven't seen similar magic, so I can't give pointers. Originally, I I also thought that sister Elaine was well-informed and wanted to find a chance to ask for advice. I didn't want to beat my sister's sharp eyes, and I saw it all at once."

"A very special type?" Elaine suddenly became interested and smiled, "Then let me see it quickly!"

Chapter 19 Magic "Beginner" Irene

"It's ugly."

After saying something shyly, Irene raised her hand and stretched out a jade finger. As the fingertips flicked lightly in mid-air, the ripples of magic rippled in the air.

After a few breaths, a green leaf appeared under her hand.

Although the leaf floating in midair looked like a phantom and had a weak aura, it really belonged to the magic cast by Irene.Even though Irene had experienced this "from nothing" state of mind repeatedly in the past two days, she still couldn't help being amazed by it.

Not long after, with the passing of the magic power, the phantom of the leaves disappeared.

Erin picked up the magic power dissipated in midair in her palm, and repeated the action just now, "drawing" a flower in midair.

Still very delicate, but also has a sense of illusion, which quickly fades away.

Because Irene, who was awakened as a "beginner", has just begun to accumulate magic power, so she can't maintain magic power for a long time only with her own ability.

Witnessing this demonstration, Elaine asked curiously: "Hey, isn't this ability to summon natural objects somewhat similar to sister Xiya's? What's so special about it?"

"It's not that simple." Sisyana showed a mysterious smile, and said in a showy tone, "Irene's ability is much better than mine, please see it well next time!"

Comprehending the princess's intentions, Irene nodded and said, "Thank you, my lord."

Looking at each other, they stretched out their hands tacitly and held each other as they had rehearsed earlier.Immediately afterwards, at the part where the two fingers interlocked, the blue light began to shine, and the shiny and bright magic power that bloomed from Sisiyana's body would not reject Irene's body at all, like a flowing stream Generally, magically absorbed by Erin's body.

This sight was unheard of, and Elaine opened her mouth wide in surprise.

Irene was moved for a moment by the vast magic power she received continuously from Sisyana.She thought for a while, then turned her gaze to the scenery under her feet, and started "painting" again after a short period of deliberation——

The royal city of Ruolin, Iris, is located in the valley between the mountains and is built against the hillside. The main body of the city is bent into a fan shape along the river; The central area of ​​the kingdom, overlooking the residential area below.

And on the outskirts of Elis City, it is almost surrounded by mountains. There are only two roads leading to the outside world along the river valley, and the city is guarded at this checkpoint.

Now that the season of spring is getting stronger, the snow on the mountains around the city has melted away, and the Alice City, which is completely made of marble, has quietly revealed a bit of greenery.

The new branches stretch, and the spring flowers bloom.

All these lifelike scenes were completely "copied" by Irene as her fingers danced quickly.After receiving the support of Sisyana's magic power, this time her "painting" is as wide as dozens of meters, spreading out in midair on the top of the snow mountain, with an astonishing momentum.

The attention of others was also attracted.

Eunika stood not far away in a daze, watching all this with a complicated expression.

Unlike Sisyana's magical form of sensing natural objects and simulating them, the way Irene's magic works is closer to directly "drawing" the desired object with magical power, just like she has always been As a painter does.

However, compared to "drawing", perhaps it is closer to "creation"?

While thinking about it, Elaine approached the scroll, and following her actions, a refreshing wind rushed towards her face.She squinted her eyes, as if raising her head, and sensed that Alice's iconic attic tower was standing in front of her eyes, but the next moment she focused her attention, she realized that it was just an illusion.

However, this huge "picture scroll" has obviously gone beyond the scope of illusions.

Moving the line of sight to the bottom of the painting scroll, one can faintly hear the gurgling sound of the Main River, and the flowers on the branches on the bank of the river are blooming one by one, and the pleasant fragrance of flowers is wafting faintly.

It's more like a "world" that operates independently.

For Irene, she just did what she had done in Camilla's Palace again, and it was done very easily.Of course, the magic power that Sisyana lent her this time is only a drop in the bucket compared to the magic power she controlled at the time, so the small world she is drawing now is a prototype with only an appearance, and there is no way to add more details.

But just this is enough to shock everyone.

Whether it's Elaine, or Unica who is out of her mind for a while, and Wenjiesi and Marquis Simmons who were asking each other about martial arts just now, including the little witch Jie who walked behind Irene with a surprised expression Guilin, whether they are aware of the essential content or not, is momentarily amazed by the overly realistic "painting" created by Irene.

And Erin, who became the protagonist at this time, still did not stop her actions, and was still habitually perfecting the world under her hands.

"Eileen, that's all right."

Sisyana noticed that Irene had absorbed a lot of magic power. In the previous attempts of the two, they hadn't reached this step. Worried about possible accidents, she decided to wake up Irene first.

Hearing the voice of the princess, Irene, whose fingers were still drawing, kept her eyes closed, and obediently let out a "hmm".

After a few breaths of silence, Irene returned to reality from the world she was indulging in just now, and said in a low voice: "...I'm back."

So, after Irene withdrew, the whole picture of Elise City that she drew still existed in front of everyone's eyes, but it seemed to have lost the spirituality just now.

Realizing that this "work" of Irene will eventually dissipate, everyone can't help but feel sorry, and Irene, who has devoted herself to it just now and drew it, is even more sad.

At this time, warmth came from the five fingers that were clasped together. Irene bit her lips, took another long breath, turned her head and said to the girl who looked over with concern, "I'm fine now."

On the other side, Elaine thought about it for a while, and decided to start from the point she was most confused about: "If my observations are correct, Irene just borrowed Xi Ya's magic power to perform such an amazing move. Magic, right?"

"Yeah, that's right." Irene nodded and said softly, "Without my sister's help, I can't do this by myself."

Elaine then asked: "Let's not discuss the type of your magic. In fact, I am more curious about how you can borrow other people's magic power? Can you only borrow Xi Ya's magic power, or anyone else?" Is everything okay?"

Erin was slightly taken aback.

Although she hadn't thought about this question yet, she had an answer right away.

As long as she can analyze the type of magic power and communicate with the owner of the magic power, she can do this—it should be said that this fact was taught to her by a little witch present.

Thinking of this, Erin couldn't help turning her head, and met Jacqueline's gaze.

Chapter 20 Embark on a new journey for dreams

Originally, Jacqueline refused to travel with the princess.

However, due to the unexpected "accident" last time, Jacqueline has a love-hate relationship with Irene.As a witch, she has always been alone except for Brother Lorance, this is the first time she has been so close to someone. When Irene made it clear that she wanted to be friends with her, she pretended to be disdainful on the surface, but in fact There will still be some yearning thoughts.

Therefore, when Irene told Jacqueline that her party would soon leave Elise and head to the south, with a strange sense of loss, she "reluctantly" agreed to the invitation from the princess.

Even so, when she thought of being eaten to death by this strange girl, and being thwarted time and time again, she had a feeling of going crazy.

Seeing Irene looking towards her, Jacqueline was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of something, her cheeks flushed, she turned her eyes away angrily, and pretended not to see it.

This made Eileen a little embarrassed for a while.

Seeing this scene, Sisyana on the side confirmed what happened to Irene and Jacqueline.But since neither of them wanted to talk about it, she didn't poke it out, and smoothed things over and said, "For now, Irene has indeed only borrowed my magic power, but it should be okay if there are no accidents for other people."

Erin nodded and added, "As long as some conditions are met."

On this point, Irene didn't make it very clear, not because she wanted to keep it secret, but because she had a particularly subtle feeling when she thought about her own abilities.

You can only use the "combination skills" after completing the strategy, which sounds shameful to death!

This is completely like encouraging me to brush up the "favorability"...

But Elaine, who heard this, still misunderstood something.

After all, traditionally, magic is actually a very private field. Unless someone is extremely trustworthy, magicians generally will not reveal the nature of their magic to others.Because letting others understand their own magic means that others may develop corresponding methods to deal with it, which is equivalent to being known about their weaknesses.

Reminiscent of Irene who was hunted down by Anruel, she is very mysterious in terms of identity. She probably has a similar life experience to the Unika brothers and sisters back then. It is perfectly normal to be cautious in this regard, but Elaine is not much. He cared, but said softly: "Due to the factors of the church in the past, in many people's minds, magicians are loners, and magic is also a very private field. I have always felt this way, but The kind of 'cooperation' you just had made me see a completely different realm."

Sisyana asked: "Sister Elaine, didn't you also borrow the power of the dragon?"

"Don't think I have such a good relationship with 'Shuang'." Elaine said, turned her head to look at the white dragon that was resting not far away, and said with a wry smile, "Most of this is a contract in the blood." I remember that when I subdued her back then, it took a lot of effort..."

After a pause, Elaine said meaningfully: "I have a hunch that Sister Irene's future achievements are likely to reach the height of Xi Ya and you now. After seeing the mutual trust between the two of you just now, I feel Ya, your current team, including sister Eunika and Wenjiesi over there, will definitely be recorded in the history books on the mainland in the near future, and I am suddenly looking forward to that day."

Sisyana blushed embarrassingly, and whispered, "Sister Elaine?"

Standing on the top of the snow peak, among the rolling hills, Elaine turned her head and said with a smile: "Therefore, the Kingdom of Povis will always be the most staunch ally of 'His Royal Highness', I can assure you!"

……

The next morning.

The envoys from the Kingdom of Bovis, Elaine and his wife, stood firmly on the princess's side from the beginning to the end in the event of retiring the engagement.In terms of effect, Wakabayashi initially made the decision not to punish the princess, leaning politically towards Anruel's old enemy, the Kingdom of Povis.

After the Elaine couple successfully achieved their diplomatic mission, they planned to leave.

Sisyana and her group also happened to leave Ruolin on this day, and Qichen headed to the south.

Although they went in different directions, out of courtesy, Sisyana and the others sent Elaine and his wife out of the city first.As they walked and chatted, they unknowingly talked about Princess Evie Elfteler of Bovis who was rescued by Sisyana earlier.

"Our queen, and my cousin, that naughty princess, all like you very much." Elaine joked, "Although she never said it, when she heard about Xi Ya For your affairs, I will quietly prick up my ears, and I will not let any information about you fall."

Because of being too good, she became the target someone wanted to hit. Unfortunately, Sisyana didn't realize it. She just thought it was very interesting and asked curiously: "She wrote to me before , saying that she is practicing. Does that mean she will become a dragon tamer like her sister?"

"That child's aptitude seems to be better than mine." Elaine said with some emotion, "In the history of the royal family, there are only a handful of times when two dragon tamers appeared at the same time in one generation, and it is also the most powerful of several kingdoms." period. Hopefully this time, we can use this to curb the expansion of Anruel."

"If possible, I would rather not see war." Sisyana sighed softly.

Having said that, she knows very well in her heart that as long as there are war fanatics like Prince Charles in Anrull, there is a possibility of launching a war at any time.

I don't know what came to mind, Elaine changed the subject and joked: "Speaking of which, you are all girls, it's a pity."

Sisyana was taken aback for a moment, then turned her head and said, "Hey, aren't you still thinking about something?"

"My sister misunderstood." Elaine clarified, "I mean, as a girl, in terms of succession to the throne, I will give way to men after all. If this is not the case, the fate you and my cousin have forged , but it can make the friendship between the two countries last for a long time."

"I've never thought about it before." Sisyana stuck out her tongue.

As for the "servant" of Her Royal Highness, Irene, who could only walk behind the two in public, listened to the whole conversation, and she puffed up her cheeks a little unhappy.
