‘While working on the project together, I did sense that she had a four-dimensional personality, but this current appearance is really…’

Victoria looked at Elizabeth with an expression of disbelief.

Of course, by general standards, it’s close to a nonchalant expression.

However, for Victoria, the fact that she is staring intently at someone for more than 5 seconds is a significant action in itself.

Elizabeth’s sudden advancement of her joining time was both disconcerting and welcome.

In a situation where a specific quest party had to be discussed, the fact that the most picky mage volunteered to stay for more than 4 days is a plus in many ways.

Therefore, the work of arriving at dawn, providing a separate residence, and thoroughly protecting the security of the process was still understandable.

Because a mage’s jinxes and personal safety are precious.

Even so, attending the meeting in disguise, and using the alias Anna Parisian, is simply incomprehensible.

Anyway, Elizabeth succeeded in creating the scene with all her might.

“So, this person is the assault captain of the Red Fox Mercenary Corps?”

After shaking hands with Marie, Thomas, Priscilla, etc., she finally stood in front of her beloved brother, Eugene Schneider, with a nonchalant appearance.

“Yes, I am Eugene Caesar, the assault captain of the Red Fox Mercenary Corps. Nice to meet you, Ms. Anna Parisian.”

Swish…!

Eugene also tilted his head as much as Victoria after seeing Anna Parisian’s overly unique appearance, but he quickly regained his composure.

She was really kind, unlike a typical mage, as she shook hands with her colleagues and greeted them.

That’s all that matters.

Even if she is four-dimensional, if her attitude is good, then thank you.

Moreover, her ability has been certified by the Imperial Knights.

Therefore, Eugene smiled slightly, introduced himself, and extended his hand to shake hands with Anna Parisian.

“Eugene Caesar…what a wonderful name.”

Anna Parisian raised the corners of her lips subtly and looked straight at Eugene’s face.

The feeling was softened by the mask, but even so, her eyes flickered with considerable madness and obsession.

Because Anna Parisian is just a shell, and inside is Eugene’s brocon yandere younger sister, Elizabeth.

‘Brother, it’s me! I’m your brother’s younger sister, Elizabeth! It’s Elizabeth! Heuaaah, brother, what to do, I’ve come face to face with my brother like this! Just like in that beautiful novel! Brother, it’s me, Elizabeth!!! Brother! Brother! My beloved brother!’

Unlike her actual composed and dignified appearance, Anna Parisian Elizabeth’s mental state was a mess.

“Nice to meet you, Assault Captain Eugene Caesar.”

Swish…!

Anyway, while controlling her inner self remarkably,

Anna Parisian raised her left hand to shake hands with Eugene.

‘Huh? Is she left-handed?”

Eugene asked for a handshake with his right hand, but Anna Parisian’s left hand came up.

This is because Elizabeth is actually left-handed.

She was so focused on Eugene’s face that her left hand reacted unconsciously.

So, just as Eugene was about to switch to his left hand,

‘What does this mean??’

His eyes widened.

‘Why is she raising the back of her hand? Does she want me to kiss the back of her hand?’

This is because Anna Parisian’s hand was taking the shape of a hand trying to receive a hand-kiss, not a handshake.

‘Come to think of it, this woman keeps staring at me without blinking?’

Unable to understand her intentions, Eugene repeatedly looked at Anna Parisian’s left hand and her face.

Meanwhile, Anna Parisian continued to look only at Eugene Schneider’s face.

That’s right.

Like her raising her left hand, this was also an unconscious action by Elizabeth, who had gone crazy after reuniting with her beloved brother Eugene.

Usually, when Eugene held out his hand to Elizabeth for a handshake, it was to give his younger sister a hand-kiss in a formal setting.

Therefore, Elizabeth naturally took the shape of a hand for a hand-kiss to her beloved brother in her heart.

“Ah…ah!”

Elizabeth finally realized the foolish thing she was doing when Eugene kept looking at her hand and face with wide eyes.

“U, uuum… I was lost in thought for a moment, so I did that without realizing it…”

Firmly…!

So, Elizabeth mumbled awkwardly and shook hands with Eugene, grabbing his left hand.

“…..”

Eugene Schneider looked at the scene silently,

‘Something is familiar, this appearance of holding out the back of her hand?’

He felt familiarity.

The familiarity was none other than that Anna Parisian, who was wearing a mask and even activating disguise magic, reminded him of his beloved younger sister Elizabeth wanting him to kiss the back of her hand.

“Ah, is that okay, Mage?”

After finishing the introductions, the first meeting began with the Red Fox Mercenary Corps, the Drake Special Quest Team, and the mage Anna Parisian in attendance.

It was the first meeting, and Anna Parisian still had lingering fatigue, so very in-depth content was not exchanged.

The main topics were how to set the direction of the discussion in the future, and that the Imperial Knights were also starting to move internally for that purpose.

Then, Victoria, who was leading the meeting, reacted with slightly widened eyes to Anna Parisian’s unexpected words.

“Of course. I am also someone who may become a member of this quest. So, shouldn’t we share enough emotional and temporal skinship with you all? Then, I think we should set aside enough time to talk with the Red Fox Mercenary Corps members and resolve any questions related to magic.”

It was none other than Anna Parisian who had expressed her intention to actively engage in skinship with her colleagues.

Mages usually stay holed up in their rooms or laboratories wherever they go, spending personal time, and only show their faces, express opinions, or perform activities when absolutely necessary.

Therefore, Victoria and the Red Fox Mercenary Corps naturally thought that Anna Parisian would be the same.

However, because Anna Parisian’s attitude was definitely different from other mages, they had hoped that it would be possible to hold meetings more often.

But Anna Parisian had gone beyond that and expressed her intention to have personal conversations.

‘Wow…! Have I really been prejudiced until now! Ms. Anna Mage is completely warm!! Almost like a nun!!’

‘Heeya… I already had so many questions, but is it really okay to ask all of them??’

Marie and Thomas were greatly moved by Anna Parisian’s statement.

The nobles and mages are the most high-nosed class in this world.

Among them, mages are even more difficult to approach, so the two people’s phobia was considerable.

But Anna Parisian, a high-level mage who collaborates with the Imperial Knights, is approaching them at the same eye level.

Marie and Thomas, who come from areas similar to slums, could not help but feel a storm-like consideration.

“If you do that, it would be a very welcome thing here…”

“Then that’s settled. I will create a more detailed schedule and hand it over to you.”

There is no occupation where the outcome differs depending on detailed chemistry like a mage.

But even so, it’s really difficult to match that in advance.

This is because mages tend to have the mindset of ‘I’ll take care of everything myself, so just follow me.’

But Anna Parisian is rather actively approaching and saying that she will match the chemistry for each team member.

She is doing various four-dimensional actions, but Victoria could not help but be amazed that she was clearly showing actions that would help the quest.

‘Hmm… There was another mage like our Elizabeth? If Elizabeth had come, she would have really done that. The hand-kiss pose from earlier, and something about her makes me think of Elizabeth.’

Eugene also looked at Anna Parisian’s active appearance with interest.

Eugene Schneider keeps thinking of her lovely younger sister Elizabeth through Anna Parisian.

It can’t be helped, because Anna Parisian is Elizabeth Dessell O’Breanne.

“Ah~ Is that so? Then, it seems like we need to make custom potions separately.”

Anna Parisian’s skinship was implemented immediately from the next day.

As she contributed at the meeting the day before, the cooperative mage Anna Parisian presented Victoria with all the possible times for one-on-one conversations with the Red Fox Mercenary Corps members.

And in fact, she began interviewing the Red Fox Mercenary Corps members from time to time at her residence right next to the arena created by the Imperial Knights.

The elf Priscilla had come and gone in the morning, Thomas had stopped by after noon. And Marie had come around five o’clock afterwards.

“Do you make the potions yourself??”

Marie chattered to Anna Parisian about the internal situation of the Red Fox Mercenary Corps.

Anna Parisian is trying to build a custom system for the Red Fox Mercenary Corps through those words.

Marie reacted with widened eyes to her words.

“Hoh hoh…! Of course, I don’t usually make them myself. But it’s a potion that might be needed for colleagues who will share their lives together, so I have to make it.”

“Wow~ You’re so kind, Mage!”

How well would an academy’s super-elite mage know about the situation of a 100-man mercenary corps?

She doesn’t know at all.

So she was surprised to hear about it.

The structure of using supply-type potions roughly when they seem to fit the situation,

Elizabeth in Parisian’s mask cannot tolerate it.

Therefore, Anna Parisian is happily declaring that she will make the potions for them.

Moreover, she will do it herself. Marie really couldn’t escape from the charm of this common sense-breaking mage.

“Um, but…”

To Marie, who is showing such a friendly appearance,

“You seem very close to the assault captain…”

Anna Parisian, that is, the brocon crazy younger sister Elizabeth, cautiously asked about her relationship with Eugene Schneider.

That’s right.

The reason why Elizabeth promoted very friendly individual interviews,

Roughly 60 percent of the share was for asking this question to the women around Eugene Schneider.

‘The elf Priscilla didn’t seem to have that kind of feeling with her brother at all.’

And in the morning, she had already slightly twisted the question she was asking Marie now towards Priscilla.

‘I feel like another woman has appeared around my brother. I can sense a slightly different feeling from the energy I felt when I had a relationship with Jeanne unni.’

Elizabeth’s possessiveness over Eugene has become so great that the very fact that there is another woman around Eugene is driving her crazy.

But she is really a good younger sister who believes in and respects her brother.

Even so, a situation has been detected where she has no choice but to do this sneaky thing.

The empathic energy between Elizabeth and Eugene Schneider is becoming increasingly concentrated,

A different feeling of energy than before has been detected there.

It is clear that another woman has appeared around her brother.
