Book 3: Chapter 8

 Secret Order for Leaffa

 Good morning. I am Leaffa.

 I think Ill introduce myself a little bit more clearly. I, Leaffa Alheim, am the second princess of Alheim, the Elf Kingdom.

 Last night, I received an important mission from my Father, the Elf King.

 I have to marry Halt, my ssmate from Ifrus Academy of Magic, within approximately one month.

 Yesterday, Halt got married to Lady Tina, the Heroine. Why I have to marry a person who just got hitchedwell, let me recount the course of events that led to this.

 Last night, Papa and the Ministers were talking about Halt and Lady Tinas future.

 I had some business with Papa, so I unintentionally eavesdropped on their conversation when I went over there.

 I am going to say this over again; do noty a hand on Halt and Tina, no matter what.

 B, but Your Majesty, they both possess an unimaginable amount of power, and there is no way we would let them freely roam! We need something that will bind us to them In order to prevent them from turning against us!

 That is right. Since it cant be helped if they do not want to ept the peerage, let us use the [Bracelet of very] to restrain that person. If we do that, then Lady Tina will surely follow.

 That is unforgivable!

 Th, this is terrible!!

 The Ministers are getting out of hand.

 Papa desperately tried to stop them, but all the Ministers are bent on restraining Halt.

 I have to tell Halt and Lady Tina!

 Even if this is an act of insult towards my country, I still want to help them.

 The [Bracelet of very] they mentioned is a magical tool that was passed on to Alheim.

 The person forced to wear this bracelet will continuously be assaulted with powerful brainwashing magic until he bes a puppet of the person who ced it on him. Elves are resistant to magical mental attacks, but they are still susceptible to this bracelet.

 If that is used on Halt, then

 Even if the bracelet is removed, there is a possibility that Halt will never be the same again. I decided to go to Halt and Lady Tinas room.

 However, at that moment, something entered Papas study.

 !?

 Th, this is!!

 Sylph-sama, why are you here!?

 Sylph-sama apparently manifested herself. The state of panic of those Ministers is evident even outside the room.

 Hey, what were you talking about just now?

 O, our conversation just now?

 Using the [Bracelet of very] on Halt were you serious?

 A cold murderous aura permeated the air, and it even reached me. It was Sylph-samas fury.

 Ah, my legs are shaking, and I cant move.

 I, it cant be helped! It would be toote if that person bes this countrys enemy. After all, Tina, the only person who could oppose him, is already on his side!

 Hmm, so you were thinking Halt will be this countrys enemy.

 Evil must be nipped in the bud! That person is from the human race, and there is a huge possibility that he might attack this country in his greed for Yggdrasil!

 In that case, if Halt is supposed to be an antagonist of this country, then you must also consider me your opponent, as well.

 Huh!?

 All the Ministers raised their voices in rm.

 Yes?

 Sylph-sama, guardian of Yggdrasil and protector god of the Elves, will be our nemesis?

 Why would that be!?

 Halt is my Contractor. If Halt is your enemy, then I will consider all of you as my foe, too.

 !?

 What does that mean?

 Halt formed a contract with Sylph-sama, ording to her.

 I already knew Halt formed a contract with Ifrit-sama, the Fire Spirit King, and Undine- sama, the Water Spirit King. Even Sylph-sama

 Hes so amazing that I cant help butugh.

 I can see now how unbelievably foolish I was for worrying about Halt.

 I crawled back to my room. My legs still wont move as an aftereffect of Sylph-samas murderous aura.

 I was shocked just a bit, just a teeny tiny bit, so I had to change my underwear.

 Sylph-samas really scary.

 I called for a maid and had her assist me in taking a bath and changing my clothes, and finally, I managed to lie down on my bed.

 Lets forget everything we heard tonight.

 So I tried to sleep but

 Leaffa, are you still awake? I wish to talk to you.

 Papa visited me.

 Papa, what is it?

 Leaffa, forgive me. Please, be Halts concubine!

 What?

 Wh, what on earth is he talking about!?

 I asked Papa for an exnation.

 After I left the office, Sylph-samas anger finally subsided as Papa and the Ministers apologized profusely. In return for forgiveness, she gave some conditions instead.

 You said that there should be something that would bind Halt to this country so he will not antagonize this country. In the same way, there should be something that would bind you so that this country will not attack Halt. Hmmm, for the meantime, lets have this countrys princess as Halts bride.

 Apparently, Sylph-sama said that. All of the Ministers protested greatly.

 However

 No big deal if you dont like it. I can just give you a punishment for trying to enve Halt, my Master. From here on, I will no longer bestow the blessing of Yggdrasil upon you.

 The Ministers were dumbfounded upon hearing those words. Without the blessing of Yggdrasil, Alheim will perish.

 Yggdrasil protects the country from the demons. Not only that, the Miasma in this area is quite strong, so nts cannot grow naturally, but because of Yggdrasil, agriculture became possible, and food became obtainable.

 That is why Papa did not have any choice but to send me to Halt.

 I am the second princess, so I have been prepared long ago to enter a political marriage. I have long since given up on the notion of freedom in love.

 However, I have had several conversations with Halt back at the Academy of Magic, and he even saved me from demons. Im at ease since Ill belong to someone I know, even if the rtionship is shallow.

 Halt is a good person, and more than that, he is the husband of Lady Tina, the person I idolized. Lady Tina will be the First Wife, and I am but a concubine, but thats totally fine.

 Isnt it splendid to have the same husband with Lady Tina?

 I started to look at this marriage talk positively.

 However, I was told that it should not be done forcefully. No matter what, make Halt like you, then form a bond with him.

 The hurdle went up a little.

 However, I think thats fine.

 Ill take the time to get along with Halt, and then well get married. I am the second princess of the Alheim, the Elf KingdomLeaffa Alheim. I studied the art of seduction. I dont have real-life experience, though.

 This is for the Kingdom. I will entrust this to you.

 Oh, my beloved daughter Leaffa, I am indebted to you. By the way, Sylph-sama ordered that you are to be wed while you are in this country.

 Eh?

 Ah, actually, I already suggested for him to take you as a concubine to Halt the other day, but he refused. I know this is really difficult, but please do your best.

 W, what were you thinking!?

 What should I do?

 I dont have much time left.

 Not only thatthe fact is, Halt already rejected me, without me knowing about it.

 I received a great blow that is on par with the level of a Spirit King.
