[Attack on Titan] behind the scenes

Felicia's house had an extra guest today, and the two sat on both sides of the chessboard on the balcony, their eyes intertwined on the chessboard.Holding the tea in one hand, Felicia said, "Mr. Pixis, have you read that report?"

"You mean the report about getting some supplies from our garrison corps?" The old man with mustache didn't look up and meet Felicia's eyes, but just held the chess piece and casually overthrew Felicia's pawns.

"Yes."

Seeing that the opponent withdrew his hand, Felicia watched the chess game again, deciding what to do.

"Do you think I'll agree?"

Pixisi asked casually, but it sounded more like asking, do you dare?

But as if Felicia didn't hear it, she pushed the chessboard attack on her side with ease.

"In any case, I hope you will agree."

"Isn't this investigation outside the wall too hasty? Is it the meaning of the team leader?"

Pixisi also picked up his own porcelain teacup, leisurely sniffing the fragrance in it.Felicia knew that he was a weirdo, but within the city walls, she was more important than others.No matter how "strange" it is, I'm afraid it won't work for me.

"Strictly speaking, it is not an investigation outside the wall, but a small-scale survey. But there is no guarantee that there will be a large-scale battle, after all, it is a giant"

There was a crisp superimposed sound on the chess board, and the two sides who were fighting each other fell into a hard fight from time to time and needed to think for a while, whether it was long or short.As the content of the chat continued to deepen, the chess game became more complicated and confusing.

"Since it's unnecessary, can it be later?"

The flag reigns over Felicia's territory, and the position is very good. It can be both offensive and defensive. It's almost like testing Felicia to see what she will do.

"Since you want to talk to me about necessity..."

The slender fingers pinched the queen, and swept upwards diagonally without hindrance.

"The people stationed in the corps have not made any progress over the years. Whether it is the stationed equipment, design, or troop strength, there seems to be no expansion except for the number of people. If you say that, isn't the garrison itself Does it make sense?"

The queen knocked down the pawn, and Felicia took it down.

"But the supplies of the Survey Corps need to be delivered by us"

"It's usually not the turn of the garrison corps to deliver, right? Since I personally experienced the gas shortage, I haven't bothered the garrison corps to escort supplies in recent years..."

Felicia hesitated to speak, but just put her fingers intertwined on her chin, and looked at it with a smile.

Pixisi looked at Felicia with the same smile on his face.

"It's hard for me to do this"

But looking at the smile on his face, he doesn't seem to be embarrassed.It's just some official words. No one wants their materials to be plundered. Even if they are allocated reasonably, how can they be handed over to others at will.

It's not that Felicia doesn't understand, she put away her wait-and-see posture, and said with a slightly serious face.

"It's just a general deployment, and I will add it to you soon. It's just that the survey corps's haste this time can't keep up with my usual update speed, which is why you are stationed in the corps. Naturally, the gendarmerie will also have to take out Part of it, it’s just their part, I think I’ll get more, and it’s also right to reduce the pressure on your side.”

Finally, there are not many chess pieces left on the board, but the more it gets to this point, the fewer paths to choose.

Pixis pondered for a while, but it was only a few seconds.

"Then thank you"

After all, he picked up the emperor and toppled Felicia's main chess piece in one breath.With the end of the chess game, the negotiations between the two have come to an end.

Felicia took a sip of hot black tea, smiled gracefully at him and said, "General, it is my honor to play chess with you. When it comes to supplies, you can take as much as you want. After all, all supplies are It's the assignment I got from you. We soldiers can't disobey orders."

It's really cheap and good.Felicia thought, but being able to snatch some supplies from him was already a great concession from him.

"Thank you for your cooperation."

Felicia stood up and reached out to him, Pixisi grasped her slightly slender hand knowingly.

"It is a great happiness to drink tea and chat with a beauty like you"

"Please don't say that, it is my honor to invite you to my house."

Just as the two continued their courteous exchanges, the aged butler sent a letter.

"Is it a job letter? If it is, I will resign."

Pixis, who had completed the task, did not intend to stay longer. The more time Felicia had to deal with business, the faster the materials could be replenished.

"It should be a reply letter from Prince Harris, I invite him to travel and play"

While speaking, Felicia cut open the royal family's lacquer seal with a silver knife, and took out the reply letter.

As her eyes continued to read, her face, which was originally in a good mood, suddenly turned pale.

Pixis, who noticed something strange, cleared his throat, and asked casually, "Did something happen?"

"No, it's nothing...just that he said he has some chores to deal with, and he won't be able to go until later"

Felicia put down the hand holding the letter in a panic, with an unchanging smile on her face.But the hand holding the envelope under the table involuntarily increased its strength, pinching the neat paper into a ball.

"Miss Felicia?"

Seeing that his lady did not reply for a long time, the old housekeeper couldn't help asking.

Felicia seemed to have regained her senses, and her eyes suddenly lit up, and the previous haze was swept away.

"Sorry, I'm packing up and getting ready to go out. Thank you Chief Pixis for agreeing to my unreasonable request. I will definitely send double the supplies to the garrison corps later."

After all, Felicia opened her skirt to salute him, and he stood up to accept it.

"Really..." He played with his mustache, and smiled kindly as he realized something, "I, an old man, don't get involved in the affairs of you young people. But...you deserve a better partner .”

After finishing speaking, Pixis leaned over and kissed the back of her hand before leaving.

"Really..."

Looking at his back that I know how to do, Felicia can only sigh bitterly. Although she is an old man, she has accumulated a lot of experience over the years, and she knows something clearly...

"Are you going to go out? I'll pack up right away"

"No need to go." Felicia quickly blocked the housekeeper's progress. She opened the crumpled paper and looked at the words of rejection on it, with a sting in her eyes. "The purpose of Harris' letter is to tell me not to Go. He has another partner and doesn't need me."

She read the text on one side again, and the frivolity between the lines made Felicia want to tear the letter into pieces.

"...that's it"

Hearing this, the old housekeeper couldn't help sighing. It's not a new thing for a prince to change a woman every day. It's even more common for a prince to casually despise women because of his status. I thought Felicia could subdue him to some extent. , but in the current situation it seems to be in vain.

Felicia also understands how difficult it is to win the prince's heart.And to be rude, how could such a person have a heart?Even if there is, it is definitely not to anyone, but to himself.Of course, Felicia can also use a rough and simple way to use political pressure to get him to marry her.But in this way, the royal family will be on guard... Felicia doesn't want to alarm unnecessary people before digging out the truth, which will make the exploration more difficult.

"Forget it, don't think about it." Felicia threw the letter paper under her feet and stepped on it.

"Help me arrange it. In the afternoon, I'm going to meet with Yeager's Allen and his friends. I'll show them around."

"Okay, I don't know where you are going to visit?"

"The Survey Corps and the Royal Gallery. This has been agreed a long time ago."

For such an agreement, Felicia did not find it annoying.
