The Witch's Marriage ch11

p1
>...Melissa-san.

>Is there really
>a "fire dragon" in this dark place?
>Yes.

>It's my first time coming here too,
>but according the Picatrix,

>it should be below this next cliff...

>Kya!

>I see you've arrived, little witches.

p2
>To take my trial!

>A few days earlier.

>"Take the trial of the divine beast"...?

>It's finally time!
>What's a trial?

p3
>The Door of Truth is protected by three guardians.
>You must clear the trials given by each guardian in order to open the door.

>So if we accept this trial...
>you'll be one step closer to your dream, Melissa-san.
>...

>I've been waiting... for this moment!

>I shall clear this trial
>and go see Master on the other side of the door.

p4
>...To clear my trial,
>you must make the Ignis of Truth blaze up to the top of the building.
>You must face this flame and confess your secrets to each other.

>S-Secrets!?
>The Ignis will only blaze up from a true confession.
>You must be completely honest and share your secrets with each other.
>Should you fail this trial...

p5
>you will never be allowed to take it again.

>In other words, we only get one chance at this.

>Now then, we'll start with you, the smallest witch.

>Confess your truth.

>...But well,

p6
>a secret from this girl
>is surely no big deal.

>This'll be a piece of cake.
>...Melissa-san.

>What is it, Tanya?
>Th-The thing is...
>Yes?
>Lately, every night...
>Yes?

>I've been going to sleep while sniffing your hat...
>Nya~

p7
>What was that!?!?
>I'm sorry!! I'm sorry!!

>Hah

>You must be completely honest and share your secrets with each other.
>That's right. Just telling each other our secrets isn't enough.
>We need to accept them too.

>Even if I have to force it, I need to accept this...
>I-I understand.
>But why do something like that?

>W-Well...
>you've been studying all night lately.

>Without you, Melissa-san...

p8
>...I get so lonely...

>I'm sorry! Your cap is such an important magic tool!
>I couldn't hope to earn your forgiveness...

>...Indeed.

>But,
>it'll be bad if you damaged my hat, so next time,

p9
>you can just sleep with me instead, okay?

>...Really!?
>It's just to keep my hat safe!

p10
>The flame!
>Very good...

>It is your turn next, not-so-little witch.

>Confess your truth before the Ignis.
