No, not at all. I - am concerned about him, so...I want to help, at least a bit.

[She eyes Virgilia right back, because shouldn't she be the one who's concerned, they know her but she doesn't know them!]

Once again, Ronove caught between enabling a potential catfight and being a good furniture. He coughs into a hand in a none too subtle nudge for his companion.

Virgilia takes a moment to compose herself and sigh. "That is a relief to hear. Allow me to introduce myself. I am called Virgilia. I am Lady BEATRICE's teacher of magic. This is Ronove, one of the 72 Great Demons in service of the Lord and Lady."

"Since they have both been away from their territory, it's rather difficult for either of them to summon us, but it seems the need was rather dire," adds Ronove with some bemusement.

[Ronove instantly seems very fun, would absolutely be lowkey catty with him. Too bad about the whole Garfield thing. She does give a little laugh though.]

I see, it's a pleasure to meet you.

I feel as if there's too much I don't know to be anywhere near as useful as I want to be. ...And that there are things he just doesn't want to hear from me. But it really is dire, you're right about that.

Virgilia seems to want to say something but then clearly shifts gears as she folds her hands in front of herself like a proper lady. "Have you considered that what Lord BATTLER may need from you isn't your words but simply your ears and understanding? A sorcerer can have the same difficulties as a witch in this area, after all."

"Lord BATTLER isn't normally someone who will shy away from voicing his opinion," says Ronove with an almost mischievous look, "however... things have been far from normal since he and Lady BEATRICE have left their territory."

"Certainly, they haven't called on us in some time, and even now when he has..." Virgilia looks uncomfortable admitting to it wasn't the best of work.

You say that as if I know anything about witches. If I just silently listen right now, that's not going to get rid of any of those vines anyway, is it? It's not like there's only a couple.

[But, no she has not considered, obviously she has to fix everything all the time, how do you just. Talk. Why would anyone just talk to her if she's not Useful?]

The demon and witch exchange glances again.

Virgilia then sighs and looks back to Kyrie. "Have you determined the source of those vines, then? Or do you just plan to uproot it entirely?"

It seems like some sort of anger... But at one point it seemed to confirm it isn't exactly his own thoughts - based in them, but exaggerated. So I imagine it's not that they need to be uprooted, but they certainly need to be sheared.

"... truly, the similarities are amusing enough to make one want to laugh their way into eternity." Ronove seems entirely too amused.

Even Virgilia's smile is a little more twisted, much more like a witch's. "Yes, I can really see the resemblance now that you mention it."

[I said look here you little shit???]

...Why do you all keep saying that.

"Whyyy is thaaaat? I do wonder--is that as far as you've gotten despite how far you've gotten? So funny, so familiar!" Virgilia starts to giggle to herself as she taps her chin in thought.

Ronove, meanwhile, just smiles as if appreciating the moment for what it is. "Lord BATTLER did summon us to be a line of last defense. I wonder if we should allow for a bit of entertainment..."

"With the mood he's no doubt in from this board, truly it would be a bit of entertainment."

[AHAHA.WAV]

Witches and demons be like this.

[She crosses her arms, sighing as she turns over what she knows for a few moments.]

My tactics don't work on something like this, so I guess if that's what Battler-kun was trying to do too, then no wonder it's the same. It would be much easier if I was just talking to him directly. On top of that I feel like I'm expected to know all sorts of events and rules I've never experienced. If you want to make fun of me for that, go ahead, I can admit that I don't have the answer all the time.

"About speaking to Lord BATTLER..." There's almost a slyness to Virgilia's words, but they're honest enough even with this, "I believe he went rushing toward the gardens back when you all were in the first room."

"Yes, I do believe he said something about that, even." Ronove seems to join in with the sly tones, lifting a hand to hide his inelegant smile and a small "pukuku" kind of laugh.

"So if you would like to speak with him... that would be the way to go."

[Man. Don't like that. But okay.]

I've been wondering about that... Can I get there from here?

"Certainly, if you wish to reach the root of the issue." Ronove gives a bow, hand going out to indicate the direction of the gardens.

[AHAHA.WAV]

"As you've come this far, certainly you've permission to go without delay." Virgilia gives a nice little curtsy as though showing deference to her Lord's stepmother.

[AHAHA.WAV]

But in fact, she can continue forward. They won't stop her.

...Thanks.

[She doesn't like the possibilities even without their attitude!!!]

... they will, however, wait until she leaves and is out of earshot before they straighten themselves.

"I believe Beato would be quite annoyed with us for being so permitting."

"That child has entertained her own poor choices from time to time. Really, even Battler has made some rather poor decisions, but I do feel a bit of pity that he keeps it to himself so much."

"Pukuku, it's true that he hasn't had much chance to really let loose, and when it comes to this..."

"When it comes to the solution to this board..."

"It's rather interesting, coming to the same conclusion he did once."

"But of course, that makes sense, doesn't it?"

""The story is the same: Without love, the truth cannot be seen.""
