Danmachi: The Magic Grandmaster

As fellow mages, they shared many common topics.

Coupled with Sion's dedication to the twins and Alfia's personality of being cold on the outside but warm on the inside, her attitude toward Sion were completely different from how she treated other men.

Meteria had noticed this and during this period even Alfia herself had realized it.

Just as Meteria had said, their hearts had been captivated by Sion.

Alfia was not a fool. No matter how much she tried to escape it, she would inevitably realize this point.

Therefore, that was why she displayed such an attitude.

She figured that given Sion's emotional intelligence, he should be able to understand her thoughts.

"Liar. If that's the case, you shouldn't care at all. Why would you specifically bring up Sion?"

Meteria whispered in Alfia's ear, "Clearly, you also like Sion. Wouldn't it be nice for the three of us to live together forever?"

You certainly are bold for suggesting that.

Alfia's mouth twitched. She glared at Meteria, vainly hoping to make her back down like she usually did.

However, for some unknown reason, Meteria didn't stop. Instead, she looked at Alfia with seriousness, which made her panic a little.

Alfia was a tsundere.

Although her words were harsh, she was incredibly gentle.

She often made this kind of expression, and every time it successfully forced most people to yield.

This could be considered her protective camouflage.

And when she showed this expression toward Meteria, it mostly meant her emotional defenses had been breached.

If Meteria backed down at this moment, it meant it was a trivial matter to her.

If Meteria chose not to back down. Alfia, who felt a sense of guilt toward her, would be the one to yield.

No matter what happened, the bond between them would never break and that remained true even now.

"I love Sion and you deeply so I don't want you to be in pain."

Meteria said gently, "If I must choose, I choose the ending where everyone can be happy."

Hearing the meaning in Meteria's words, Alfia fell silent.

After all, they were twins.

Meteria understood Alfia and Alfia understood Meteria.

She had reacted this way to prevent Sion from inadvertently crossing the line, but she never expected her defenses to be completely shattered by Meteria.

Now that the matter had been brought to light, Alfia could no longer continue running away from it.

She could only examine her own heart over and over again eventually confirming that she did have feelings for Sion.

But it was merely affection. It had not yet reached the level of love that Meteria felt.

Her gratitude for his dedication to them, the immense favor she couldn't repay and a hazy sense of affection, all these were parts of Alfia's emotions.

And all of this had been seen through by Meteria...

"Stop being so full of yourself."

Alfia turned her head away and said, "Didn't we agree to study hieroglyphs? Hurry up and get started."

He probably didn't find out, right?

Alfia blushed slightly. She caught a glimpse of Sion out of the corner of her eye and found that he was staring right at her.

He had a strange smile on his face, which made it impossible for Alfia to calm her racing heart.

Tch, at times like this, he is especially annoying...

Turning her head to look at Meteria, she saw the exact same smile on her face.

"Mhm, let's begin then."

Meteria smiled and effectively ended their conversation.

If she continued to tease her, Alfia might just storm off in a huff and that wouldn't be good.

Her reason for bringing this up wasn't to force Alfia to accept it immediately, but to slowly chip away at the resistance in her heart.

Once Alfia's lessons began, Meteria also threw herself into the studies.

Although Meteria couldn't keep up with Sion's train of thought, she held onto the idea that she couldn't afford to be completely ignorant so she studied along with them.

A month passed by in the blink of an eye.

"Is this... what Freya sees?"

Sion murmured.

Freya possessed the ability to see the color of the souls, which allowed her to discover many shining individuals.

He looked at Meteria. In his vision, Meteria's soul was pristine white.

Gentle, pure and noble.

Just looking at her soul subconsciously brought forth these wonderful words to describe her.

It was far too beautiful.

Meteria had an appearance that rivaled a goddess. That touch of gentleness and fragility made her breathtakingly beautiful.

And the color of her soul was equally stunning. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a rarity in this world.

Alfia's soul was more distinctive.

Her color was much more than Meteria's, appearing more aggressive and slightly complex.

As for his own soul, it looked like a nebula.

I suppose the rarity of my soul could be considered EX tier...
