P-Princess!
What brings you here alone at this hour?
I am requesting a favour to be done immediately and under absolute secrecy.

The Princess' Request
I have decided to marry into Germania.
What?!
Into that savage, stuck-up country of all places?
It can't be helped.
In order to protect the small country of Tristain,
we need to have a strong alliance with Germania.
So it's one of those political marriages?
You keep your mouth shut!
Even though it's for the sake of the country, that's very sad to hear.
I'm the princess of Tristain.
I do not hesitate to sacrifice myself for the country.
But...
...there's something I must do before I go.
Princess, if there's anything that I can do for you, please let me know!
Thank you, Louise Françoise.
I would like you to find an item.
An item?
A letter that I sent to Prince Wales of the Albion Kingdom.
Albion!
If the contents of the letter were made public,
the marriage proposal would turn into a white sheet of paper.
Princess...
What could have been written to make a marriage proposal disappear?
I told you to keep your mouth shut!
Albion has an unstable government right now, and the country is in turmoil.
I've heard that the aristocrats are starting a rebellion, and the throne is about to be tipped over.
I'm sorry for asking this of a best friend.
I'm...
But right now, I have no one else besides the two of you to ask for such a thing...
Thank you very much, Princess.
Louise Françoise.
It is a great honour for you to assign such an important mission to me.
Louise. Will you do it for me, then?
Who's there?!
Guiche!
I heard the entire story.
You were eavesdropping!
Please assign the mission to this Guiche de Gramont.
Don't be ridiculous!
Gramont? Would you happen to be Marshal Gramont's-
His son, Your Highness.
Will you aid me as well?
So Guiche is also coming along?
He'll only be a bother.
Did I just hear something?
Oh well.
Um...
Oh, Siesta.
I'm sorry.
I found out that the incident with the love potion was real.
I said such rude things to Saito-san...
Don't let it bother you.
Louise is back to normal anyway.
If it's Gandalfr, he's worthy of believing.
Gandalfr again...
Is there anyone with a profound knowledge of history at this school?
History?
Magic may now be considered to be composed of fire, water, wind and earth, but there was once a fifth element,
and they each represented a corner of the pentagon of magic.
That lost fifth element is "void".
Gandalfr is the familiar of a legendary mage who uses the element of void.
A void mage?
However, the existence of void magic has yet to be confirmed till today.
The rune on your hand resembles the rune Gandalfr had.
Unfortunately, as long as a void mage does not exist,
there is, sadly, no proof that you are Gandalfr.
Well, my master is far from being a legend, and you know how she is.
I thought I smelled something. It was this.
That's dragon's blood.
Dragon's blood?
A long time ago, two dragons that had never been seen before came flying down from the sky.
One disappeared after that, but the other one is said to have fallen somewhere.
I was able to get hold of the blood that was shed back then.
I'm working on duplicating this.
This is blood?
But this smell...
Prince Wales of Albion and the Princess are cousins.
So they're cousins who were childhood friends.
Louise?
I can't use magic properly,
yet undertaking such an important mission...
I don't know if I can do it or not.
W-What are you doing?
Worrying over it won't get you anywhere.
We've made it through fine every time.
It's nice to say things like that so easily.
You know...
What?
If anything happens, I'll protect you.
Of course you will! You're my familiar!
Ah, yes, yes.
It's a water ruby that my mother gave me.
This is all I can give you for now.
Princess...
I will arrange a bodyguard to escort you.
He will guide you to Albion.
This bodyguard should be here by now.
What is this?
Verdandi!
Oh, my cute Verdandi.
You must have thought I'd leave you behind again, because I didn't take you to the lake the other day.
How cute of you.
Just to let you know, we can't take a big mole with us.
What?
Stop! Where do you think you're touching?!
Guiche!
I see. The ring.
The ring?
Verdandi loves jewellery.
Especially expensive ones.
You've got to be joking with me!
I won't let a mole eat this precious ring that Her Highness gave to me!
Anyway, help me already!
Verdandi!
Who is it?!
Above us!
A griffin?
W-Who are you?
By order of Princess Henrietta, I will be your bodyguard.
Wardes, captain of the Griffin Unit.
You are...!
The famous mage-knight?
Louise.
I'm sorry I surprised you.
I thought my fiancée was under attack.
Fiancée?!
You're kidding me...
You're as light as ever.
Just like a feather.
Long time no see, Wardes-sama.
What's with the noise this early in the morning?
Who's that good-looking guy?
T-That Louise...
From the elitest of the elite, the captain of the Griffin Unit is here to protect us.
It's a thrilling experience.
Whatever.
I was really surprised, since I wasn't aware that Wardes-sama would be coming.
We can't use the Griffin Unit for a secret mission.
When Her Highness consulted me about the letter, I offered to be a bodyguard.
You offered to do this for us?
Of course. I can't sit and do nothing after hearing your name.
Wardes-sama...
Yeah, "Wardes-sama", whatever.
What's wrong?
Oh, nothing.
Hey, I thought we were going to a port?
We're heading deeper into the mountains.
You don't know anything, do you?
Are you tired?
No, not at all.
This is a good chance to make up for the days we couldn't see each other.
Yes...
Well, I won't be surprised no matter what pops up.
There it is.
The town by the port, La Nocher.
The buildings here are all made by carving parts of the mountains.
It takes an expert square class earth mage to do this kind of work.
We'll spend the night here and depart tomorrow evening.
Okay?
Y-Yes sir, Mr. Wardes.
At least answer him, Saito. You're being rude!
Don't worry. I don't like acting high and mighty just because I'm an aristocrat.
There we go.
Listen, let me tell you...
What?
I'm his fiancée, but it's something that my parents decided.
Hmm.
What's with the "hmm"?
He's arrogant, but he seems to be the most kind of all the aristocrats I've met.
Isn't he a nice guy?
That's right. I've adored him since I was little.
He lost his parents when he was still young,
and became the captain of the mage-knights through hard work.
Unlike you-
W-What?
Well, about that...
Looks like I didn't have to come with you after all.
You're my familiar, so of course you have to come with me!
What should I say...
What's this? Did you fall for Louise?
I did not.
She's so violent and selfish, and her personality's really twisted.
Why are you so depressed, then?
I shouldn't have acted so cool, saying "I'll protect you".
That's all...
To summon a human as a familiar. That's my Louise.
Even you're going to say that to me?
I didn't mean it in a sarcastic way.
That is an amazing feat, Louise.
I heard the two of you had a duel.
T-That was...
Saito, is it true that was the first time you held a sword?
Well, yes.
I was told that you captured The Sandy Fouquet using the Staff of Destruction.
Is that true as well?
Yes.
You certainly know a lot.
Given my status, I receive plenty of detailed information.
Even about this plebeian familiar?
I'm interested in you.
I was hoping for a spar.
The ship departs tomorrow night.
It's boring to wait and do nothing.
Wardes-sama!
Of course, I won't force it on you.
Sure, I don't mind.
Stop it, Saito.
Wardes-sama, now is not the time to do this.
Don't worry. I will go easy on him.
Let's head back to our rooms.
Come, Louise.
Room?
What, we can't!
We aren't even married yet.
It's fine, we are engaged.
But...
I have something important to tell you.
Isn't it a romantic night?
Not at all.
It's sad that I have to spend time with you.
I can say the same of you.
Oh, right. I just remembered I have business to take care of.
Business?
I remember seeing a young lady during the meal.
It'll be rude to her if I don't introduce myself.
What kind of reasoning is that?
Yo, Del.
What's up, partner?
Do you know who Gandalfr is?
What kind of a question is that?
If you aren't Gandalfr, then who are you?
Whether it be 6,000 years ago or now, my only partner is Gandalfr.
Are you crying, mi-lady?
Viscount-sama. You were here?
You were scolded by your father again?
Come with me. I'll talk to your father for you.
Don't worry. I'm with you.
You had your magic compared to that of your older sisters',
and always cried in that little boat, didn't you?
Please, Wardes-sama.
But I sensed an aura in you that no one else had.
An aura that no one else has?
You have a special power that no one else has.
No, I don't.
Even now, I keep failing at casting any spell.
Once this mission is over, let's get married, Louise.
We only bought a cheap sword from a weapon shop by chance.
It was a coincidence...
There are no coincidences in this world.
You are my partner.
That's why I'm here.
Don't you get it?
Then why did you never talk about it before?
You never asked.
Well... that's true.
The power to manipulate any weapon.
Let me tell you, though, it only applies to items that were made to be used as weapons.
Something made for decoration, like that shiny sword from before, is meaningless.
Then, if I used you, would I be able to beat Wardes, too?
Fool.
That depends on you.
I only get used.
I don't plan to end my career as just the captain of the mage knights.
I wish to become an aristocrat influential to the country, no, to all of Halcheginia.
But... to get married all of a sudden...
I need you, Louise.
But, it's too sudden...
Louise.
I will protect you.
If anything happens, I'll protect you.
Saito.
No, it's not like that!
Saito came from another world without knowing anything.
And I'm the one who summoned him, so I have the responsibility to-
Looks like your heart is already starting to belong to another person.
No, definitely not!
It's fine. I won't ask for an answer now.
Please listen to me, Wardes-sama!
By the time this journey ends, your heart should be seeking mine.
I'll go ask for another room.
Wardes-sama...
Good night, Louise.
Good night...
Wait!
Really, all I did was try to kiss.
Girls from the hills really are innocent.
Let's start this, Saito.
Yes.
Stop this foolishness!
Being an aristocrat is troublesome sometimes.
We can't control ourselves if we want to know whether someone's stronger or weaker.
Saito, I order you. Stop this.
I won't go easy or anything, just so you know.
You don't have to. Give me all you've got.
You're fast.
You sure are-
But you are an amateur after all. You're full of openings.
Del wil sol la winde.
Get away, partner!
Saito, are you all right?
With your skills, you won't be able to beat a real mage.
In other words,
you won't be able to protect Louise.

As if I'm under a spell of realism,

there's a bright smile that's burned onto my heart.

But whenever I see you, I act cold.

なぜ誰より気になるのにイジワルをしちゃうんだろう？
Even though I pay more attention to you than anyone else, why am I so mean to you?

called you from the deepest part of my heart

G-Getting married?! But it's all too sudden.
Yes, Wardes, I really do... but...
But... but what should I do?
Saito...
