So Mercier has a hard time understanding Dimitar, not that I blame her considering their very different personalities.

I think it may be interesting if the series focus more down on the idea of artificial magic. For character development, Valeria has a lot to explore especially with that relationship with Karin.

Believe it or not Karin is the main point in this volume.

Incomplete if it doesn't start with Valeria's narration. At Bettina’s urging, Valeria arrived at the royal palace urgently and reflexively frowned upon seeing Dimitar who was standing at the decorated gate of the elegant garden. Although it was hard to say that Dimitar was affable, he had a visage which showed that he was in an exceptionally bad mood today. She had a premonition that prior to greetings, abusive words would fly towards her at the instance they met.

Although she anticipated it, Valeria furrowed her brow at those unsparing words and approached Dimitar. Indeed, in the garden where the greenery and brick-paved paths drew symmetric patterns, palace guards could be seen here and there. Bettina don't trust Dimitar, xD.... Rip sword.

After giving a profound bow and raising his head, Dimitar somehow managed to read the flow of the place by observing the faces of those present singly. Military Minister Garido-kyou who had an unpleasant expression still held onto the conservative that cavalry and infantry were the focus of the battlefield, and didn’t think too well of the magic warriors Marefikos who possessed great power within the army.

Eventually, it was arranged for Dimitar and party to depart for Biranoba one week later. Karin Rudbeck probably had to send a letter to her relatives during that period to schedule for a visit. Although they weren’t visiting as the country’s representatives, the other side still need to prepare adequately to welcome the pair of Dominas. In any case, the coordinating role wasn’t Dimitar’s job under those circumstances. His duty was to act as the party’s escort until the end. It’d be better if his turn didn’t come, but depending on the situation, there might be a time when he had to act as a spy.

After all the clothes and the family are very elegant, really ... Look at that train.

Additional :
In Amaddo, the earliest age when people began training was 7 or 8, while even the latest would be before their 12th birthday should they decide to become a Dominas.

To begin the training meant engraving magic crests onto the skin first, followed by studying usage of elementary magic. Karin was a child who memorised quickly, but nonetheless she was 10 when she chose this path, hence that time when the magic crests were first carved onto her remained in that girl’s mind even now.

Although more than half of the girls aimed to become a Dominas, did they feel the lack of talent or could they not endure the pain of having magic crests drawn on them? They’d abandoned their dream half a year after the training started. Thus in the midst of the harsh competition, Karin publicly became a Dominas with her natural ability, endeavour and some help from luck.

The last time that she visited the Valiente House was when she was 10, before she participated in the training, and thus this was her first visit in 7 years since she seldom left Roma during the training.

The Dante Valiente in Karin’s memories was a slightly precocious boy of 12 years, but the Dante whom she met again after 7 years was a young and already splendid head of the Valiente House. He was currently the deputy prime minister as a proxy for his father who died suddenly, but if it was this young man, he might seize a post above that eventually with just his true strength. Karin and Dante's talk is very long. You better read it without needing to understand the meaning of their conversation.



Although Karin had searched through her memories and recalled those words accurately, she took it upon herself to feign ignorance and looked away. Just then, the moon in the night sky was obscured by the thin clouds and its brightness weakened. For better or worse, the mood didn’t turn bad.

Since it was Dante’s proposition to the king of Biranoba, it had to be deeply connected to their national interest, It was a petition stating that a place like the Magic Academy in Amaddo should be established in Biranoba. The summary of the required budget and the timetable for until when magic warriors could be produced practically etc. were written down quite meticulously.

As Dante’s mansion was originally distanced away from Buruan, it tended to become silent suddenly when the day got dark, but the vicinity of the Valiente House’s detached residence was even more rustic. There were no lights of private houses in its surrounding and no sign of life except the occasional hooting of owls.

Late in the night, Valeria who had slipped out from the mansion secretly and came here while being shouldered by Bettina, looked up towards the hilltop from within the forest and frowned. Dimitar who was replacing the cartridge of Bettina’s back said so sarcastically. Although judging from his expression, Dimitar probably didn’t intend to make fun of Valeria, but was only stating the truth. Even if that was the case, it didn’t change the fact that she felt offended though.

Although Dimitar replied calmly, Valeria couldn’t maintain her composure at all. If Dimitar’s conjecture was correct—if Dante was aware of everything—, then Karin and Petra who had remained in the mansion were in danger. There was no country that tolerated foreign spies. As though making himself to decide, Dimitar muttered and followed after Valeria.

The sixth chapter is about Valeria and Petra's grandpa. Karin and Petra’s grandmother was from the Valiente House. Is that a battle?

Assuming so, one might be able to say that the Valiente House was originally a family lineage that produced numerous people with magic abilities. In fact, Dante who was the heir of the Valiente House skilfully mastered the sword and shield created via engineering, and fought above equal footing against Karin.

I hope Valeria can be more honest with Karin.
