Chapter 18: The Campaign Pledges Reach Completion!

“Huh?!” gasped Rafina. All the while, Mia was determining her plan for action.

First...she would keep the fact that Patricia was her grandmother a secret. If she started explaining time travel now, it would only leave Rafina baffled. Plus, Mia still wasn’t absolutely certain that Patricia really was her grandmother. Most importantly, she felt that bringing this up would dissolve the wave that their encounter with Barbara had created. Thus, she would limit the topic of discussion to one issue and focus all of her efforts there. Patricia was a pitiful child raised by Serpents—that was the angle she’d push for. Mia knew that more meant more, and she’d push all of it toward that goal.

“Let our efforts be as focused as a mushroom!” were words that the famous General Mia knew well. She had already discovered how to concentrate her efforts on where her enemy’s defenses were the weakest.

Anyways...she would have to remember to keep Bel quiet on the matter as well. She did already go blabbering off the whole story to Anne and some others, but there was nothing that could be done about that now. The focus of their discussion needed to stay focused on one topic.

“This girl was raised by the Serpents to one day spread their creed herself, or to be sent to a noble household as a spy...that’s the sort of situation she has found herself in.”

“Wh-Why have you come into possession of such a girl...?”

Mia met Rafina’s angst with a kind smile. “That is so I can lead her down the right path, of course,” she declared.

At first glance, this may appear to be the last-ditch efforts of someone who has been forced into a position that prevents them from backing down...but that assumption would be wrong. Quite honestly, Mia was not a fan of anything too tiresome. She would take the easy road whenever she could, and when she couldn’t, she would at least take things easy. She wanted to play hooky! And after all she had been through, she was begging to at least be able to this time.

That was the core of Mia’s character, but in this case, she had sensed that this was an issue she could not disengage from. Even Mia could understand that.

Yes, should Patricia turn out to be her grandmother, Mia would have to do something about it, and there was nothing she could do to avoid that. She already had been driven to last-ditch efforts. Thus, she thought it would be best to just jump into that wholeheartedly, magnifying both this situation and the wave Barbara had created. At least, Mia’s sixth sense was telling her that this would be the easiest road she could find here.

“Mia...you...” Rafina’s voice quivered. “You’re saying that we should do what Saint Mia Academy has done here in Saint-Noel.”

“...Uh.” Mia didn’t quite understand what she was trying to imply. But luckily, Rafina didn’t seem to have caught the confusion written all over her face.
