Chapter 24 by Kougyoku Kougyoku

Is it time to see the Wizard?

You remember our house, opulent and imperial

The interior decoration of the castle is outrageously luxurious and draped in opulent decadence. Fine draperies line the windows, frilling their colorful fabrics down massive stained glass. Liz leads you into the dining room. The dining room could easily seat a small party. A long, dark wooden table sits in the middle of the room, surrounded by high-backed plush chairs. A grandfather clock ticks quietly along the edge of the room.

Illya is at he head of the table. "Glad to see you remembered, Onii-chan. Hu-hu-hu~" Illya looks at you with a creepy laugh. "Please, take a seat, lunch will be served shortly. Let Liz or Stella know if you need anything." Liz and Stella are waiting behind two chairs that are pulled out next to the head of the table. You and Rider pensively sit and feel your chairs be pushed in simultaneously.

Liz and Stella depart to the kitchen, returning to set food on the table and on plates ahead of you. Your glasses are filled with rich-looking red wine. Illya takes a bite of food first, looking at you wait. "Eat. I am sure your journey has left you hungry. Don't worry, it's not poisoned. If I wanted you dead, you'd already be a corpse in the forest." Illya states matter-of-factly.

Rider takes a bite, then looks at you and nods. You dig in properly. It's absolutely delicious, though a bit decadent. From the selection of expensive meats, cheeses, fish, bread, and even the plating of the food. You make idle chit-chat drinking wine while you eat. The maids take care of everything. As you finish, Illya invites you to the sitting room for your formal discussion.

What do you talk about?
