Chapter 2: The Third Annual Enthronement Ceremony
Part 1
The coronation third anniversary commemoration ceremony of the pope was to be held north-east from the city of Romalia at the border of the Town of Aquileia and Gallia. The festival is quite big so it could end in a span of two weeks.
The departure for Aquileia from Romalia was set by the Cathedral of Our lady. At the courtyard which is surrounded by five towers and in this enormous tower, each civil service employee, the officer and the priests are to be boarded to the dragon ship where the crest of the respective sector is drawn. On this tower, the ship anchored to wait for the arrival of the Pope. Then as for the pier, only with the permission of the Pope is allowed be used.
A knight that rides a Pegasus flew over the church who will guide the ship to the destination.
Every one of the Ondine water spirit knights including Guiche who will accompany Henrietta was scheduled to leave by ship but the ship was delayed with certain circumstances.
All in main tower of the large saintly hall like the balcony with the pier which is projected, they waited for the arrival of their companion.
"Geez, Saito's not here yet."
Malicorne murmured anxiously.
Yes
Even though the departure time is approaching, it's important to show that we're in our top form. Because we haven't been training properly yesterday, everyone were all tired out from training too hard.
"Nevermind, I don't think I'd be scared with a cold shoulder don't you think?"
One student, said in a voice a little angry. Everyone in the Ondine Knight were told about Gallia's conspiracy on the Pope.
You could say that they'd probably will aim for the Pope to make them the highest authority with Halkeginia. Even if they knew the conspiracy of Gallia. What they do not know is what they are planning. So they were prepared for anything against them.
They wouldn't show the fear attacking them.
With the arrival of the students and commoners they all are ready to leave... But Malicorne groaned with a sigh after an awful training with Guiche.
"Stop mumbling and thinking. You're acting like a ghost when defeated by my Valkyrie."
"That's nothing compared to the one who fought an army of 70,000. So I won't be afraid of Gallia."
While Malicorne nods, he reassures himself and denied the fact he's still afraid.
Soon, Reinard who was quiet the whole time opened his mouth.
"Oh, that reminds me. I saw Saito yesterday."
"What did you say?"
Everyone looked at him with a serious face and the atmosphere became dense.
"I-I don't really know everything! I just saw him with Louise at the church."
"Spit it out!" Malicorne complained as Reinard scratched his head.
"Because of that... I couldn't disturb Saito. Even though i never go out with girls. I understand his feelings. The day before a dangerous mission, they would like to be able to at least spend some time together..."
"... I guess, you can say we're the same." Gimli said as Guiche rubbed his neck.
"Saito... always has been facing alot of dangerous situations. He's always making the enemy drink his own boiling water again and again. We'll do our best to be like him."
With the appearance of Agnes and Henrietta, Louise and Tyffania also appeared. With Guiche's eyes bulging round, he looks at Louise's clothings.
"W-Why are you dressed like a nun?"
Louise and Tyffania were dressed like nuns. Here and there, which there were lines of orange thread running to the joints, made it seem comfortable. The figure which shows a cross from the neck was visible on the cute maiden.
"She decided to participate in the ceremony as a nun." Agnes explained.
Tyffania's large, pointed ears were entirely covered by the hood. It's much more better than her usual hat. It was one of the people of the church who gave a hand in sewing the cloaks. It was a perfect fit on them.
Tyffania seems to be brighter than usual.
However, Louise was making a face not usually shown. Grasping the cloak tightly she wanted to murmur something but couldn't. Guiche felt uneasy when he saw such expression on Louise.
Henrietta doesn't know anything that happened before. It was a dangerous question that she asked when she opened her mouth.
"Have you seen Saito recently? I didn't see him at all."
Guiche lifted his face.
"I was having that in mind too. Louise, where's Saito? I saw him with you all day yesterday."
Louise was holding onto her cloak tightly . Henrietta noticed something strange and asked Louise.
"Louise, you look like you knew what happened."
Louise took a deep breath and told everyone.
"Saito has returned."
Everyone was stunned with Henrietta's wide eyes staring at Louise. Tyffania bit her lips and Guiche asked Louise with a surprising voice and hoping he is right.
"H-He went back to the Academy?"
Louise grabbed his collar.
"He returned to his world."
Everyone just stood there like a statue after hearing those words from Louise.
"Louise! What happened? Tell us everything!"
Guiche panicked as he held her shoulder. She slowly shook his hands off of her and said.
"Saito came from the East don't you know?"
The Ondine Knights nodded. Everyone knew that there's an area to the East from here.
"... He received letters from his mother who was looking for him."
"So you returned her request?"
Louise nodded as Malicorne hold his head and moans.
"So that's why, this has gone abit too fast. This is too difficult at a time like this."
Louise showed a stern look.
"What are you talking about? At times like this, it shouldn't be always Saito who do this! Until now, how many times Saito has fought for us? You're nobles! You should depend on yourselves! You-"
Louise bit her lip, digging into her mind finding words to say.
"In any case, we can not have Saito fight with us from now on."
Malicorne then said with a troubled voice.
"I didn't know... Saito meet us. But, somehow, he wanted to meet his mother again?"
Louise closed her eyes for a while... and nodded. She then became pale, grasping her cloak yet again and started murmuring something, like a prayer to God.
Suddenly, the boys of the Ondine Knight strongly swell the face of Louise.
"Prayers can wait till later. We wanted to ask you something. Can we have your attention?"
"Alright."
"It's just that, we haven't seen Saito's home right? Have you seen it?"
Louise shook her head.
"I looked at it."
"What did you do?"
"I can't tell."
Everyone was standing next to Louise, Henrietta became aware of the strained face and stopped further pursuit... Since it's a secret, the air became denser.
The words of Louise stimulated everyone. Everyone was trying to think of something but couldn't, even the Ondine knights can't do anything.
"This is no good! No good at all! He left you as a familiar, isn't that too selfish?"
"That's not the kind of thoughts you should be thinking!"
Malicorne was puzzled.
"Is that so? If he's not having those selfish thoughts. Then in that case, he would be fighting alongside us wouldn't he? Or so I think."
Everyone nodded. Louise wanted to say something but was interrupted by Henrietta.
"Do you intend to shame me?"
With the officials of Romalia around they stared at the Queen exchanging glares and seemed interested.
With the attention of the Queen. The boys made a flustered face.
"It's a problem to have been short of one knight. I have chosen a brave knight as the member of the squad, but..."
So being said with the attitude of dignity, the boys became humble. Henrietta started walking when Louise was urged, to the pier extending from where she stood. The Ondine knights looked at each other and was about to follow silently.

In theory, though it sounds so beautiful from the eye kept Henrietta why the tears flow. The sudden farewell surely it is not ready mind, Henrietta thought.

Vittorio raise their hands, and smile when you smile ..., broken in a moment of silence, echoed big cheers.
Pope arrives party that night ... We, at Cathedral of St. Rutia Aquileia, a large round table meeting, who were gathered to learn this strategy. Tifania and Ruiz are sitting next to Henrietta. The next to Agnes. Beside that there are more strained face Gishu. The rest of the semicircle is the official B Maria. Pope at the center of Sardinia. The next to Julio. Captain of the knights who lined the church and brought each. Next to it, whey-faced mayor Aquileia, High Priest of the church sat Rutia St., Gil had exchanged nervously leaves or anything. We heard the mayor's plan, worried voice, "The plan 伺" The Uka "What we have ..., not really Gaul under St. 御身 狙 a" sleep well lately, "I'll have Dearimashou?" To avoid confusion, indeed the legendary "leaders of emptiness," is trying to talk to that do not. Vittorio is a smiling face beings "Unazu" was. "It is true.'s Gaul that" incompetent king "is Harukeginia want to be king. So, it is disturbing this Watakushi God and founder." The Pope himself said so without hesitation, the mayor amount of "forehead" wipe the sweat off of "Fu" was. Honestly, they have this trouble started, each in his office why were full of tears and feeling put out. "Even so, that risk is still the Holy 御身 under ..." Third anniversary of the coronation ceremony heard, a few priests and priestess Pope "witch" with, keep praying all the time. Meanwhile, the city came flocking from all over the Harukeginia believers, queue up to catch a glimpse of the pope pray. Mazare to the spectators, and the Gallic any action, thought and popes. The mayor's plan was a nightmare. Should the Pope If we fail to guard, leaving his name to become mayor in history as incompetent and allowed the assassination of Pope Omeome. "Mayor Hall concern" Yuri Created by "is natural. However, we will engage the enemy in airtight lineup of water." Julio stood up and began to write this plan on the blackboard. "As you know, scary is the magic of" first Using the chalk, drew a drawing of the church Julio. "So, to use a spell accidental enemy barrier around for the magic tool to send a Detect Magic around the church." Julio is shown around the church, they got an indication of the number. "Of course, stick" rod "is not taken into during a visit. But if in some way ... to use magic, use the moment you are caught out by this unit, surrounded by his knights around chanting will be captured immediately by " The mayor's face was something comforting. "Not only that. Of course, the Pope around" air shield "severalfold the" What will "stretch to protect the 御身 it. The usual magic and a gun, I would not go anywhere." That security, then nods to the priest and the mayor looked at each other. Everyone seemed to have 感Ji入Tsu the plan, the person was not convinced that the person floating face. Tifania be.

Childhood "When," and killed the mother of the house elf came aboard, it was the Knights received a positive order of King Albion. The group of state level, if you want to eliminate nuisance once ... really, when would it take this blow in the game, would use a plot? And what it means to take an assassin? If you really to destroy, would not you use another way? Reliable, error-free way .... Tifania hesitantly gave a hand. "Westwood misses. Or what?" Looking at the beaming smile Tifania Julio. ", Yes .... Do you want to question?" "Sure." "That ..., in which people that great so, arrogance" presumption "and I think, though it was in mind. And ..., what you gonna do When I put the troops if the Gaul ? " The Henrietta | Smile "gentle smile" floating out. "Mr. Tifania, not worry about that. And the venerable Gallic kingdom. Is a full-fledged member of the alliance of kings. Kista reckon with as opposed to face" Mentsu "is that you. I had no break-border alliances Wang imitate them to move beyond the "imitation" is ... " To say there is anyone else Henrietta "who" do not laugh I noticed that too. Julio beings are "Unazu" while we affirm the words of Tifania. "I would say that possibility is five minutes." "What did you say?" Henrietta's pale face, "wearing it" becomes. Calmly, he continued Julio. "Until last week active military actions in Gaul was not found near the border. Now, however, new information came in, so we must be very telling as well.'s Against our forces is a roster, each regiment stationed four thousand nine knights led by the church's elite force close to the border, "Yuuton speak" is inside. thereon to our fleet is kept Maria imperial Russia. to compete in this fleet air force, the Gaul "Fleet Vehicle" only " "What forces gathered near the border? Provocation or not!" Henrietta is up, screaming. "If you take all well and good, and provocative. Makes our job easier." "It has a different story! Your Holiness, are you a war you going?" Vittorio shook his head. "We have not. The cause is the Gaul." "You do not have a bar and told to bleed between British Muslims do not mill! To dry, the tongue, and to prepare for war! Not understand the meaning!" "Have no use because, if you want something that can be done with a single blow. I think I planned this. To worry anyway. Gallic army is certainly strong, the hand is striking 打Tsubeki Trout " "Cowardice" cowardly "It is! I will hide you to date!" "Henrietta Temple" Gentle, yet dignified Vittorio in a low voice said. His voice is like magic in was full of impressive silence would be open to all. Henrietta is a lip bite "or" closing out "and" Show details and shake your head. , "I hate war and I said that, we do not deny that possibility never. For all situations, only provides a way to counter that." "Sophistry ..." Ben came "It is. Coronation place for the three year anniversary celebration Why choose Aquileia near the border of Gaul and this could finally really understand. The enemy to withdraw from the conspiracy no. ... It is a war. " Including the sad voice said Vittorio slightly. "The choice is not in Watakushi. Is strictly Gallic. Possibilities and is now a quarter past five minutes." The mayor and the High Priest had been very faint content of the conversation. It is a story from the third anniversary of the coronation ceremony of a sudden war, do not blame them. Tifania even, horror of this situation led to pronounce his body in his arms, "because it" is holding the shivering. Gishu while I decided what was a duck in a ceiling with their eyes closed. Agnes has always looked much the same. Knight Corps captain who is also the church, like changing the color. Henrietta is one up and looked at Louise's side sit in silence. "... But unfortunately that happens is Kanaimasenu cooperation. Watakushi because the instruments of war never accidental Louise, from its I promised his father succeeded. Louise Let's go."
