Blessing Of Yuri Goddess-Chapter 379 - 87 - Small Talk When Dinner

When night fell, several of Marquess Rommel’s Knights who had previously fainted after receiving a magical attack from my mother woke up.

They looked like someone who just woken up from a long sleep, and some of them were even stretching their body after passing out soundly.

This experience made me realize that I was not sensitive enough to the situation that was happening to the Knights that I was leading in this military expedition.

With the schedule changed, the exploration in the dense forest was delayed, and I had to adjust the schedule to do an evaluation with my mother.

The presence of Lisa and her triplet Elf girl nieces made the dinner even more luxurious than it needed to be.

Oh! Luxurious in this sense... is a emergency canned food that tastes like roast beef and a warm cup of tea that emits a soothing floral aroma.

My mother enjoyed the dinner with joy, especially after seeing the special guests, who joining my military expedition.

Lisa and her triplet Elf girl nieces looked awkward during dinner time.

It also make me felt awkward, too.

"Today’s dinner is unique, isn’t it?" my mother said, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

"Not only am I in a vast, night forest with minimal light... I also have to work hard to control the Marionette’s magic spell so it doesn’t break to avenge my personal revenge... I mean counterattack. This is truly amazing, isn’t it?" my mother continued, sipping a cup of warm tea that Mio had poured.

Lisa, who heard those words, smiled and looked at my mother with respect.

After witnessing Marionette’s magic spell up close, Lisa’s demeanor and behavior were a little strange. She resembled an elf girl trying to calm herself down to satisfy her curiosity.

Lisa’s eyes also couldn’t leave the thorny pillars that stood tall with a magic core in the middle.

"That was truly wonderful, Marchioness Amagi," said Lisa, who began the dinner by responding to my mother’s comments.

Since my dinner was still unfinished, I ate my dinner leisurely, while listening to this conversation.

"Fufu~ really? Yup, it’s truly amazing... Because of the involvement of my two amazing twin daughters, who genius in modification magic spell!" My mother replied with sparkling eyes as if she were showing off Alice and Alyssa’s extraordinary magical abilities.

That statement is not wrong.

In the future, Alice and Alyssa will become the most powerful witches in human history.

Their talent for understanding magic is unparalleled. With such extraordinary talent, I’ll be outclassed by my twin sisters if I don’t train seriously.

"I understand that very well, Marchioness Amagi. If I look closely, the magic circle formation you used was to build a tall pillar that was used as a control center to control the disguised... Undead Dragon. But, If someone see the magic chain used to control it... wouldn’t that be a double-edged sword?" Lisa asked, throwing out a serious question during dinner.

Luckily, I was still enjoying my dinner and didn’t get dragged into this complicated discussion of magic formations.

Listening their conversation while enjoying dinner is the best choice for me, right now.

"A double-edged sword? That only works if they know the trick behind it. So far, I can feel the puppets I’m controlling right now, only get useless physical attacks and holy magic attacks," said my mother with a happy smile, and moved her empty teacup near Mio to be refilled.

Pyyuurr...

Mio understood my mother’s gesture and poured warm tea into her cup.

"The tea you made tastes delicious, Mio. Are these the tea leaves Lily often uses?"

"Yes, Marchioness Amagi. The tea leaves I’m using are Lily-sama’s favorite because of their rich fruity flavor and fragrant floral aroma," Mio replied, bowing her head respectfully.

Slurp...

While leisurely drinking warm tea, Lisa immediately replied to my mother’s words according to her understanding.

"That’s not what I meant, Marchioness Amagi. What I meant by a double-edged sword is that there is someone who can track down the source of the Undead Dragon’s controller," Lisa replied while glancing at the pillar that was filled with sharp thorns and the tip of the pillar that looked like it was emitting a translucent magic chain.

"About that... looks like it’s your turn to shine, Alyssa," my mother said while glancing at Alyssa, who had just finished her dinner.

"Umm? Do I have to explain the magic formation I created, Mama?" Alyssa asked as she placed the wooden plate in front of her military aide.

While giving a wooden plate to her military aide, Alyssa held her magic staff, which was not far from her sitting position.

Swiirrll...

By waving her magic staff, the magic circle formation used by my mother appeared in the middle of us, who were enjoying dinner.

Just by looking at the three rows of magic circle formations used by my mother and Alyssa, I could understand some of the magic formations that the two of them had used.

The magic circle formation has three core rows that are used to activate the magic.

In the first layer, my mother used the Marionette magic spell that build a large pillar from the ground and connected the body of the dead dragon with magic chains so that it could be controlled like a living dragon.

In the second layer is the process of creating a new magic core, which will later be used by the Undead Dragons so they can cast the magic they have mastered, such as a large dragon fire blast attack without incantation .

On the third layer, it was simply a magic circle formation that served as an optical illusion to hide their magic chains, who connected to the controller.

These three magic circle formations are strengthened by magic that comes from my mother and Alyssa, making the magic circle formation strong and long-lasting.

Who knows what is happening to the cities that are being attacked by the Undead Dragon?

At least, they will realize that it is not an Undead Dragon but a dead dragon that has been controlled using Marionette magic.

The counterattack that had been ongoing from noon until nighttime showed no signs of ending.

In other words, the Undead Dragon continued its rampage into the night.

I didn’t know this counterattack would last this long.

Attacking a sweet daughter who is loved so much by her parents is actually this bad, huh?

That’s their fault...

If only they hadn’t attacked us in the first place, something as horrible as this counterattack could have been avoided.

In accordance with my understanding of the three main magic circle formations used by Alyssa and my mother, my sweet little sister explained it in detail and left Lisa speechless.

"I understand the concept now. In other words, this is a counterattack that tricks the opponent using the principle of summoning the Undead?" Lisa muttered as she stared at the magic circle formation now in our midst.

"With such a complex situation. Alyssa-sama must be exhausted after counterattacking from day to night like this, right?" Lisa continued, smiling admiringly at Alyssa.

"Huh? Not really," Alyssa replied casually.

"Eh?" Alyssa’s casual answer made Lisa tilt her head in surprise.

"Maintaining a magic circle formation like this is nothing compared to Lily-nee’s magic circle formation, which has been active since the beginning of the military expedition until now," Alyssa said while glancing at me.

While I was relaxing and slowly enjoying my dinner, I suddenly got curious looks from my mother and Lisa.

With a casual hand gesture, I immediately pointed towards the central command tent.

"My magic circle formation that mapping the surrounding area... is still active until now," I said in a relaxed tone and quickly ate the last of the food on my wooden plate.

After my dinner was finished, I immediately handed the dirty wooden plate to Mio, who was standing beside me.

"I-Is that true? Alyssa-sama and Lily-sama’s magical capacities are so high, aren’t they?" Lisa muttered, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"This makes me curious. Can I see it, Lily?" my mother asked, seemingly eager to know the progress of the military expedition I had undertaken.

"Sure, it also help me when Mama is here. So I don’t need to report the results of today’s military expedition via magic protofon," I replied while drinking a glass of water given by Mio, while she was pouring tea into my cup.

I immediately stood up and walked towards the central command tent.

Alice, who was enjoying her dinner, swallowed it in a hurry until she choked.

"Cough! W-Wait for me, Onee-sama!" shouted Alice, not wanting to be left behind by me.

I was silent for a moment to wait for Alice, who was choking on her dinner.

After cleaning up her dirty wooden plates, Alice immediately ran towards me and smiled gently.

"Sorry for keeping Onee-sama waiting..." Alice said, blushing and making Alyssa sigh.

"We’re just heading to the central command tent, Alice. There’s no need to rush to finish dinner until you’re choking like that," Alyssa said as if giving Alice wise advice.

"I-I just don’t want to be left by Onee-sama, that’s all..."

"You don’t want to be far from your older sister, huh? That’s so sweet, Alice..." said my mother, who sounded like she was teasing Alice.

Hearing those words, Alyssa also stepped beside me and pulled my arm tightly.

"Then... I don’t want to be left by Lily-nee either!" Alyssa shouted, looking excited.

I just smiled happily after seeing my twin sisters, who were in high spirits tonight.

Tap...

Tap...

With Alice and Alyssa dragging my feet, I entered the central command tent, which looked messy with various samples of wild plants and unknown magical plants.

"Oh my, this seems different from what I thought. I did receive a brief report about a previously unknown wild magic plant. If there are this many, Marquess Rommel’s territory is rich in natural resources... to this extent!" my mother said with a glint in her eyes.

Just by looking at the look in her eyes, I already knew what my mother was thinking.

As a magic maniac and a researcher, my mother would definitely conduct magical research using this unknown wild magic plant.

Lisa and her triplet Elf girl nieces were shocked by this, too.

"T-This magic plant, wouldn’t it be dangerous if it became public knowledge?" Lisa asked, making me glance at her.

At the same time, my twin sister and Marchioness Amagi glanced at her.

Someone who knows this wild magic plant is here!

This is a great opportunity to steal some information from Lisa!

Inside the central command tent, the interrogation begins!
