Chapter 197

Titan Bride => Great Bride

『But if you say that …… fox bride plan? was a failure, then why was Titania so angry? She was pretty mad, There was also something crackling out of her horns. I had a really hard time getting her in a good mood after that.』

『She was angry because she found out we dispel a very important skill.』

『Dispel……You mean what Tiriel did that time?』

I recall her face turning blue as Titania glared at her.

『Yeah, we didn’t know that either. We didn’t know this, but Titania used to put a lot of enchantments and even hexes on Jibodan on a regular basis. Inorder to protect Jibodan.』

『Thank you, Titania.』

『And then it was replaced by Tiriel’s enchantment. In addition, it couldn’t handle any more enchantment because of the bulk of it, and it even started to repel the hexes. She was mad at us for doing the unnecessary thing. She told Tiriel to remove it, but she was already exhausted, and she couldn’t dispel it for a while, so we argued.』

Tiriel was so scared because Titania was going to kill her.

『By the way, what was Titania putting on me?』

『I haven’t heard the details, but it sounds like it was something Jibodan needed. But fortunately for you, Tiriel’s enchantment can be a substitute for it. Titania is a very good mage. Tiriel is barely hanging on after doing all that.』

With a sigh, Ferris continued.

『It was my fault for not checking Jibodan’s status before applying the dispel I apologized for that. But because of that, Jibodan now seems to be in a bit of a bad state. But don’t worry. We’ll take responsibility and fix it』

I guess such drastic events were unfolding at that time.

-Well, it’s time to ask.

『Well, why did Ferris try to pull a marriage scam on me?』

Ferris looked up and looked at me mischievously.

『Because I really love Jibodan.』

You are being too pushy …….

『…… marriage is supposed to be a very careful thing, right? Shouldn’t you be a little more serious about choosing the right partner?』

『It is not that big of a deal, in the case of my clan, if you write a divorce letter the marriage contract will be lifted. 』

She smiled and chuckled.

『Jibodan can’t write our letters, though.』

–Now I feel a chill on my back.

It’s probably because Ferris’s eyes aren’t smiling.

『Also, We’re trying to counter Titania’s domination (control) that time.』

『–uh? Oh, yeah. Domination. 』

『It seems that the power of domination has something to do with Imina…』

『Imina?』

『A name associated with the soul. For most people, It’s the name given after they are born.』

『Hmm.』

『But it certainly wasn’t Gevaudan』

『No, it wasn’t. I don’t remember anything from the past. So I made up this name on my own.』

『I see ……』She clamps her mouth shut and makes a thoughtful gesture.

『Still, it was the first name that popped into your memory, even if a bit crude, so that’s also a possible……』

Ferris, satisfied, looked up with a single nod.

『–but there must be a gap there.』

She continued, holding up her index finger.

『There are all kinds of contracts that use the Imina. But what they all have in common is that they cannot be repeated. One name, one contract』

『Just one?』

『Yes, that’s right. So the legend that a witch must be a virgin also originates from there. For the witches of Miforsis, their Familiar is very important. But before they can get married, they have to break the first.』

『Hee.』

『I thought that if I intervened and made a formal marriage contract with Jibodan, Titania would not be able to interfere with Jibodan any further.』

『And then you said I was already divorced.』

『yes. I didn’t expect that the marriage had already been consummated.』

Ferris’ shoulders slumped.

『But thanks to that, I’ve learned something.』

『learned something?』

『Yes. I know why Titania has been called the since ancient times.』

Ferris said, folding her fingers one by one.

『The titans in that nest are the . The spriggan who was next to her during the day is a . The one to Jibodan is a . As far as I can tell, there are many more, but all of them are contracts that can only be formed only one at a time, but Titania seems to have established all of them by herself. And all at the same time. Normally, a single person would not be able to command such a large number of Familiars and Ceremony spirits.』

Ferris continues, looking in the direction of the castle.

『Titania is able to establish an unlimited number of contracts that require a true name. And it can be enforced without the consent of the other party. Perhaps even for the same soul, she can make several different kinds of contracts. I guess that’s why they call her the . It is a truly astonishing thing. I’ve never heard of such an ability.』

『Heh~~~』

That would mean one wife and many husbands. I won’t allow it.

『Jibodan, you said you kind of know how Titania feels.』

『Yes, I do.』

『Perhaps Jibodan is also possessed by the Familiar contract』

『That would mean…』

『Jibodan may also be Titania’s Familiar.』

I am Titania’s Familiar ………….

I’m so excited!

『Then Jibodan must have received a skill. The familiars inherit one of their master’s skills. If the marriage contract was also signed before, Jibodan may have even obtained her .』

Elite skills …… as I recall, innate skills. Lydia told me about it.

I remember she once told me that if Lydia and I got married, even I would be able to use her bow Gradnega. But I’m divorced now, so I don’t have that power anymore. But when I was in Faymbaum, that power was in me and I could use it so …….

I don’t know, it’s kind of hard to talk about. It’s like I’m getting a little bit of a wisdom fever…….

『….So, is domination some kind of contract?』

『I don’t know. All I know about that was from what Dupont-san told me.』

『manager』

The manager’s name comes up a little bit here and there.

It seems that some of the important people of Faymbaum were always at that butcher store, so he must be a famous person.

『Dupont-san said that domination is not a contract or something like that. It’s not even a skill, it’s something irresistible…… it’s something like immense charisma.』

The manager knows so much. That’s my manager.

『By the way, Ferris, are you okay with being that close to Titania?』

『Yes. Dupont-san told me that to fight against Titania’s domination, you need to have a strong ego. Mr. Dupont told me that this is how he and his destroyers confront the Dominion Clan. I have the blood of Dakki the founder in me, and her ego is strong enough to shift the entire country. Maybe that’s why.』

Ferris shifts the entire country…..

Haha, no way.

『Everyone else is guarded by a fox mask with my clan’s blessing. Papameyan made them for me. When the Highland Zephyrs face the Dominion clan, they use these masks. So far, everyone seems to be okay.』

『It sounds like a lot of work. So, what are you going to do now that you failed to marry me? From what you’ve just told me, it doesn’t sound like things are moving even if Ferris and the others stay here.』

Suddenly, Ferris came around in front of me.

『Actually, Jibodan.』

Her features, with the moon behind her, took on the color of the dark night.

『If I had your real name when you were subhuman, I was sure that I could bond a marriage contract with you. My sister told me that someone with amnesia and a second name had once consummated a marriage contract.』

Ferris looked up at me, standing so close that I could feel her breath on me.

『But one day, a woman appeared in front of him, She was his former wife. and as soon as he remembered his true name because of her, all the contracts with the second name were annulled and he was forced to divorce. The name at birth is the name closest to the soul. That name takes precedence over the others. I don’t know if it changes anything, but I think it’s worth a try.』

This means …….

You’re insisting that I give you the name.

Abigail says my human name was Nigel.

–But I don’t think it’s a good idea to tell her.

Yeah …… I should stop.

My sixth sense is ringing like an alarm bell.

If I cut off my tongue, there’s no way She’ll ever know.

『I’m sorry, but I don’t remem–』

Then, as if reading my thoughts.

『I don’t think it was Nigel either.』

Ferris said.

『I wrote Nigel’s name on the plate, but it still failed. Gevaudan or Nigel, the results were the same.』

The beast’s eyes glowed red in her darkened face.

『Jibodan, you still have a name older than that …… don’t you?』

Unconsciously, I swallowed hard.

『—- though, I’m sure you don’t remember. So I’ll give up now. But I will definitely marry Jibodan.』

…… how did she know the name Nigel?

Scary.

Today’s Ferris scares me.

There’s a certain level of grim danger glimmering from beneath that fake smile that makes me, the representative of the entire Horror Film Monsters Association, shudder.

It’s …….It’s like.

It’s like the kind of danger when a girl secretly pokes a hole through a condom.

The morbid feeling and psychological thrill chilled my skin as it mixed with the cold night air.
