Chapter 266 The meeting of 12 oclock on 11th of Platinum Month (3)

Im truly sorry

Spadas lady general, Emilia Friedrich Bardiel was, without any regard to her position and social status, apologizing to a single female student.

No, its good that the misunderstanding is now gone

On the contrary the female student, Fiona, although expressionless, seemed to be relieved when saying those words.

If Emilia truly started a fight, Fiona had no confidence in pinning her down.

The reason she was a general leading the army wasnt because of her family lineage or her beautiful face, it was because she had enough military prowess to be called asValkyrie Storm, and this was something Fiona heard not too long after coming to Spada, hence showing her fame.

And after meeting personally she understood that those talks werent exaggerated.

It was Fionas true feelings, without any deceit, that she felt relieved because the situation settled down without shedding blood.

Even I had said some wrong things. It was only natural for you think from those words that Simon got a bad lover

She, just in case, explained the situation that theyElement Masterwere living here because of chairpersons judgement, and also,

Having a man and woman of same species in the same party, you know what that means, right?

With the help of that single line, she was able to resolve all the misunderstandings about her having a romantic relationship with Simon.

I dont want to say excuses, but it was truly because of me losing my temper. Im sorry. Whenever it comes to my relatives I become a little hot-headed

Relative, is it?

To that expression, Fiona found something weird.

In the first place, the reason Fiona was able to understand the misunderstanding, even with her not being able to know much about human relationships, was only because she understood those feelings.

Changing their places it would be like, some unknown girl started living with Kurono alone.

If Fiona truly was put in that situation, she didnt have the confidence to not fireAur Soleil.

In that sense, she had praise for Emilia, for having enough self-control that she didnt started fighting.

Anyhow, she thought that, to Emilia Simon was what Kurono was to Fiona.

In that case,

Its not relatives, right. Dont you mean that become hot headed whenever it comes to just your younger brother, Simon, just him, right?

It wasnt every person with the surname of Bardiel, but only the man with the name Simon, that she was most concerned about.

I dont understand what you mean. Im just saying that I put the most importance to my family

It is a pure lie, right?

To the harmless and inoffensive reply of Emilia, Fiona declared it as a lie. No she couldnt help but say that.

After all Fiona, currently, understood other persons heart to the extent she never had.

She was called as airheaded and a person who cant read the atmosphere, sure enough, she was like that, but even so she could understand Emilias heart.

That was right. She understood the feelings of a woman, who had given her heart to a single man.

Im also living in the same place as Simon-san, more or less, so I also hear many stories, for instance, the story about a bothersome elder sister

I seewhat did he say?

That he didnt want to see ever again

Emilias blue eyes flickered for a second, but Fiona surely saw that.

It wasnt like Simon clearly said words of rejection, but if the stories Simon told to Kurono about his sister were to be summarized, it would mean that only.

And seeing the current reaction meant that she herself had somewhat guessed that Simon thought like that.

Simon-san is heartless, right? For him to not notice the feelings of his sister who is wholeheartedly thinking about him

It isnt like that, in truth, Simonmy feelings

If he understood then he wouldnt have thought of not meeting. Even if he met you, it isnt like he would open up his heart, but

Fiona continued. Every time she spoke, the eyes of Emilia flickered more and more.

He has opened his heart to just Kurono-san. I had heard that until he returned back to school, he was living in your mansion. Did Simon-san, at that time, told you about the works of an adventurer named Kurono? If you have heard, you must understand what I mean, right?

Ah, indeed, Simon did talk a lot about a man called Kurono

Did he not show a smiling face when telling you about Kurono-sans stories. A smiling face, he would never show his sister, I mean you

Fiona spoke as if she had seen that.

Of course, she hadnt been observing Emilias mansion. However, Fiona could vividly imagine the joyful appearance of Simon while telling the works of Kurono.

Because, after living together in this dorm, there was no way she wouldnt notice how he talked with Kurono.

He hates the elder sister who had looked after him for so much time, then why did he get so close to Kurono-san, a man he met recently? Can you understand why?

Even without waiting for the reply, Fiona was convinced that Emilia wouldnt be able to give an answer for this question.

She hadnt met her for more than an hour. All information about her was based on the complaints by Simon. Why could she understand the heart of someone like that so clearly?

It wasnt just because she had strong feelings for a single person.

Even more than that, this female called Emilia,

(Its unbearable for her to not love Simon-san, but, she hadnt realized those feelings on her own, she doesnt even try to realize those feelings)

Was exactly like Fiona, before she realized about the fact that she loved Kurono.

Why is that?

Like that, a reply Fiona had expected came out from Emilias mouth.

You dont know? It is quite simple thing. If you just realize that, I can assure that the way Simon-san talks with you will change

Just what is it? Cant you tell me without putting on airs

That is

SFX: Raaaaaaaaawwwwwrrrrrrr

A thunderous sound like that of a dragons bellow rang out, and it cut out Fionas words.

Apparently that sound wasnt that of a brutal monster, but it came from Fionas stomach.

Im sorry, I have gotten hungry, so I cant talk anymore than this

Seeing Fiona speak those words nonchalantly, even the cool expressionless Emilia couldnt help but open her eyes wide.

D-Do you expect me to believe that!?

Even if you say that. I got in disabled mode the moment Im hungry. If I didnt eat anything as soon as possible, it would be danger to my life

Emilia only met Fiona for the first time today, so she didnt if she should accept Fionas words as truth or exaggeration.

It wasnt like she was suffering from a disease or had any sort idiosyncrasy, to put it out frankly even if Emilia left her on her own, at worst it would Fiona feeling sad having an empty stomach, it definitely had no danger to her life.

Got it, then buy something from the school storeno, at this time nothing would left

Oh, you are quite knowledgeable about this

Im a graduate from here. Of course I even know that if you went to School Cafeteria at a time like this, there would no seat left

The Royal Spada Academy seemed like a military school in the first place, moreover thinking on the family lineage of Emilia, it was natural to think that she mustve been an Elite Cadet in those times.

It cant be helped, I will treat you at a suitable shop, but promise to continue the talk from before

Yes, please choose a shop with tasty food

Indeed

Emilia smiled wryly.

And it wasnt hard to imagine that she would keep on smiling bitterly even after entering the restaurant they were both heading towards.

AUTHORS NOTE:

It was in Chapter 244 that Simon was speaking bad things about his Elder Sister. Fiona was also there, albeit she was more concentrated on cleaning the pudding.
