My mother's love song

Murray flapped his wings and flew to Rhodes' side, taking the wine glass with a bright expression.

Seeing her drink the whole thing in one gulp, which was inconsistent with her image, Rhodes' face lit up.

"As expected of you, the number one lady in the Fairy Kingdom. You can drink quite well."

“Lord Rhodes’s wine… This is a noble item that only His Majesty Morgan can enjoy. How can we waste it so easily?

Hmm...By the way, is it just Lady Altria who is here?"

Murray showed a puzzled expression, and Rod explained.

"Vivian has returned to the hotel with Tristan and Lancelot."

Murray pretended to be surprised and said, "Have you gone back already? I haven't had the chance to entertain that gentleman properly yet."

Rhode smiled slyly at the goblin with wide eyes, and continued: "Vivian originally planned to have a good talk with you after the dance...

"But we had a great time tonight, so I'll spare your life this time, Murray." That person said so.

"What……!?"

The unexpected statement made Murray blink.

"Wait, wait... Why aren't you going to execute me?"

"That person is not going to hold Murrayne accountable for his actions tonight."

Rhodes relayed Queen Morgan's original words to the Winged Fairy.

"There won't be a next time... If you disobey me in the future, I will crush you to death like a winged insect."

"What……?"

Murray kept the same expression and shouted again, stunned with surprise.

"?"

Rhodes frowned suspiciously.

In his opinion, Murray's reaction was a bit too extreme.

Although tonight's dance party was a bit out of line, Murray's sins were not so serious that he had to be punished...

Why on earth did she react so strongly?

In Murray's mind, is the queen such a cruel and ruthless tyrant?

Really...if you're so scared, why do you mess around at the party?

"…Hey! Is everything alright?"

At this time, Gao Yanskaya screamed in surprise.

She twitched her fox ears and glanced at Rhodes, who nodded and repeated it again.

"Take it as a magnanimous pardon from your majesty and be grateful from the bottom of your heart, Murrayne."

The purple-haired fairy was silent for a long time, finally raised his head and forced a smile.

"Yes, I understand..."

She grabbed the hem of her dress, knelt and saluted, "Lord Rhodes, thank you very much for your kind words and help in front of that lord."

"I never said anything good for you."

Rhode scratched his ears and said, "If you want to thank someone, thank Vivian tonight for being such a naive kid."

Murray showed a slightly sad expression and said lightly.

"Hehe, wasn't it Lord Rhodes who transformed that cold witch into a kind and forgiving little girl?"

"Um... I'm sorry, I didn't understand a word of your conversation from just now."

Altria couldn't help but ask, and Rod said calmly, "It's nothing, you will be happier if you don't know."

How would she react if she knew she had been walking with Queen Morgan all night?

"Humph... Rod is treating me like a fool again."

When the boy sat down next to the Child of Prophecy, she puffed up her cheeks and turned her head.

"So, Lord Rhodes, why did you bring the Son of Prophecy to the Bell Hall?"

""

Murrayne's voice made the tension permeate the air.

Rhodes casually reached out and ruffled Altria's ahoge, then spoke to her.

"Of course it's about the pilgrimage bell that the boy is going to ring."

"Wow, Rod, you're too direct. Things like this should be handled step by step!"

Altria protested loudly, her original plan was to sneak up to the top floor and ring the bell in the second half of the night.

Murray narrowed his eyes, stared at the boy and asked, "Is this also the permission of that adult?"

"Hmm...what exactly is going on?"

Rhodes said vaguely.

“All in all, everyone had a great time tonight.

So... even if the bells of Gloucester ring disturbingly, it is unlikely to be taken seriously."

"I see. Now that you've said that, what else can I say?"

Murray bowed his head deeply to Rhodes, hiding his extremely puzzled expression.

The Son of Prophecy was allowed to ring the bells of Gloucester! ?

Your Majesty Morgan...what on earth is that man thinking!

"I will take Lady Altria upstairs to ring the bell later."

Murray added in a low, unmotivated voice.

She raised her eyes and met the excited Altria, and continued helplessly:

“But then again, Gloucester’s position has not changed. Can we just regard this incident as Lord Rhodes’ arbitrary decision?

It's not like I handed over the bell to the Son of Prophecy, nor did I harbor any rebellious thoughts towards Her Majesty the Queen... Is it meaningless to say such things now?"

Murray was silent for a long time before continuing.

"Son of Prophecy, I will not provide any assistance to the Round Table Army in the future. Please don't misunderstand me on this point.

Gloucester is a city that puts popularity first. Under the rules, fairies and humans are all equal.

But I basically hate humans, so I also hate the Round Table Army and will not help Londinium no matter what.

Besides, I have just decided... I will protect this Britain."

Rhodes: “?”

He and Murrayne have known each other for 2000 years, but she was behaving a little strangely tonight.

At this time, Altria said: "I thought Murion would not be against humans.

Do you hate...hate humans like Noknalei?"

"There is only one human being who is an exception."

Murray's voice suddenly changed from serious to cute, and an imperceptible bright red appeared on his cheeks.

The girl from the Wing Clan glanced at Rhodes secretly, but found that he was completely indifferent, so she turned away angrily.

"Well, Lady Altria, please follow me. It's getting late, I'll take you to ring the bell."

"…Why are you suddenly angry!?"

Altria looked at Murion's back and felt a little confused.

"I'm not angry!"

"Okay, okay, Rod, let's go."

When the Son of Prophecy looked at the young man beside him, Murrayne deliberately raised his voice.

"Lord Rhodes, please stay here. Only the Son of Prophecy can come here."

"See... he is really angry!"

……

……

……

A quarter of an hour later, the bells of the Winged Clan echoed in the quiet night of Gloucester.

Following the Earth Clan and the Wind Clan, Altria rang the third bell of the Fairy Kingdom.

The magic power... has become stronger again.

By the third time, the girl no longer had the initial novelty and excitement and behaved very calmly.

At about three o'clock in the morning, Rhodes said goodbye to Altria and Murray, and they walked out of the bell hall side by side.

"Rod, what are your plans for the future?"

Just as Altria was about to ask this, a huge shadow came from the side and swallowed her up.

“Ba, Bagster…!?”

The Son of Prophecy raised his neck subconsciously.

Results come to an end.

Even though Altria put on a brand new dress and high heels, she still had to look up at Bagster...

The little hope that the girl gained by ringing the bell was shattered in the face of the huge reality.

Bagster, as usual, didn't even look at Altria and spoke to the man next to her.

"Lord Rhodes, the carriage is ready."

"Understood. Let's go."

"……ah!"

Altria looked down in surprise and found that her hand was held by Rhodes.

The last time they held hands was nearly a month ago. Rhodes held her hand so naturally that Altria was both happy and embarrassed.

"We are going to go to Manchester, Bagster's territory, next."

Rhodes' words brought the girl back from her trance.

"us?"

“You and I,” Rod explained, “Bagt seems to have something he wants to discuss with us.

She invited us to her home, and since you weren't there, I took the opportunity to accept the invitation for you."

As he said this, the boy smiled a smile that made the Child of Prophecy's heart beat faster.

Please agree to this for me... Isn't this too outrageous!?!?

Altria was stunned: "We are going to Bagster's house?"

"That's right." Rhodes confirmed again.

"Ah... But, my companions..."

"Altria, I just went to the inn where you are staying and have already sent invitations to your companions in advance."

The blond fairy knight turned and spoke to the Child of Prophecy.

"Of course, I couldn't be sure they would take my word for it and go to Manchester."

"........."

If I go to Manchester now, it means I will have to separate from my teammates temporarily.

Going to the Fairy Knight's home alone was obviously an unreasonable and dangerous move, but...

Altria looked at Rhodes beside her.
