Isn't Being A Wicked Woman Much Better? Side Story Chapter 7

'It was really fun.'

I frowned at the yellow fox on the desk, then began to open the letters I had delayed replying to over the holidays.

Most of them were letters of invitation to social gatherings or tea parties. Some came from the temple.

“Ugh.”

Looking at the seal and autograph, it was a letter from the Pope. Instead, there was a message asking you to visit the Heleia Dominion, where the temple is located.

“Ah, The temple has nothing to do with it, so where do i go?”

refuse!

Not only the Pope's letter, but also all other letters were rejected. However, she could not write a reply of refusal to this blue-glossy letter.

'I have a loyalty.'

While I was procrastinating for a day or so because I felt burdened with socializing, I saw the letter from the 5th Princess and suddenly thought that I could not put it off any longer.

‘As long as I live as a vested-class family in Asteia, I have to keep fighting and frying with the nobles. '

If I have to resume social gatherings, I'm most attracted to starting over at a gathering hosted by the 5 Princesses.

I am a close friend who gave me full trust even before I awakened my divine power, and my perfect side who came to me even in battle, how can I refuse.

I picked up a quill and started writing a reply to the 5 princesses.

2. Deborah's Friends (?)

After the battle with the Great Demon, Princess Deborah became the most popular figure in the Empire in name and reality.

There were even aristocrats holding meetings on the subject of princesses, and the enthusiasm for her hardly ever stopped.

“Is there any news about Princess Deborah recently? I've heard of your betrothal to the Duke of Visconti, so let's move on. ”

“Nothing.”

The news of Deborah and Isidor's engagement was noisy for just one day.

To be honest, with eyes and ears, anyone would have expected it. On the contrary, there were people who asked if they had not yet been engaged.

It was still surprising and bewildering that Princess Deborah, rather than the saint, was incarnation. I understand with my head, but should I say that cognitive dissonance is coming.

“I want to see her.”

“I know, right. When I think of that time, my heart still rises even now. That godly and holy power that drove away evil demons...The word divinity is not worth it at all.”

“I saved my life thanks to her while fighting a monster. She is the life saver.”

“She has done such a heroic deed, she should be admired by everyone in the social world...”

But instead of enjoying explosive popularity, Princess Deborah chose to stop socializing and live quietly at home.

“I think the high-pressure and arrogant attitude of the princess was also an act to deceive the evil warlocks!”

“After all, Saint-sama first.”

While praising her modesty, everyone was in a state of disappointment, but news came that the princess, who had been ignorant, had accepted the invitation to a social gathering for the first time. It was a tea party held by the 5 princesses.

“After all, the closest to Princess Deborah was Princess 5.”

“I wondered why the two of them are close, but birds of the same feather gather together, and it seems that outstanding people instinctively recognize each other.”

The 5 Princesses, who helped get rid of demons with powerful fire magic, also enjoyed great popularity in the Empire.

The reason that the honor of the imperial family, which was tarnished by the 4th Empress, did not roll down to the bottom of the basement was because the Crown Prince and 5th Princess risked their lives to participate in the battle to establish the face of the imperial family.

“What other great people would you like to invite to this tea party, Princess 5?”

“Aren’t you going to be given the honor of attending that tea party?”

“This is the gathering you most want to be invited to in the new year.”

***

“Where is the best place for a tea party? I want to show the princess the glass cabinet where my magic tools collection is displayed.”

“Princess, it’s a shame, but how about some ordinary place other than the exhibition hall?”

“Hmm. There are only ordinary waiting rooms, so I can’t decide right away.”

Meanwhile, the 5th Princess was very excited that Princess Deborah was coming to the imperial palace. Although she had visited Seymour herself before, it was the first time that a princess had come to visit my palace.

She was so excited that she was preparing to welcome guests with the imperial court maids a week before the tea party.

“… what clothes do you wear? Studded with purple amethyst, how about this outfit? It's an expression of my affection for the princess.”

'Affection? You must have misunderstood friendship?'

“Does it suit you?”

“The princess really goes well with whatever clothes she wears.”

Every time the 5 princesses, who were tall and had a cool and cool appearance, changed their clothes, the maids trembled, saying they were cool.

“Princess, what kind of tea should I prepare?”

“Prepare the tea leaves I brought from the Principality of Miro last month. Desserts to go with it.”

She even robbed the precious tea leaves so that the emperor made a safe and managed it separately. She even called the chiefs of the imperial family and ordered her to make a seven-story cake.

On the other hand, the news that the 5th Princess is preparing a tea party with all her heart and soul has been like a rainstorm for the young girls of the capital's social circles.

Most of the high-ranking nobles and imperial officials were very busy with the aftermath of the Great Demon case, and the social circles led by the high-ranking nobles were also in stagnation.

By the way, what a tea party of saint and 5 princess!

Who will be invited to the tea party attended by the most popular people in the empire!?

5 The young girls who were close with the princess were inflated with anticipation.

'I can brag in front of others for the rest of my life! '

'The best network and opportunity to grow stronger!'

However, no matter how long they waited, the letter did not come to them.

***

“Vivien, the tea party you are preparing these days. Haven't you decided who to invite yet? It wasn’t on purpose.”

Upon hearing about my sister's grand tea party, the Crown Prince asked as if passing by, and the 5 Princesses smirked.

“I was just trying to get to know each other. When the hell did the rumors come out?”

All, alone?

The prince's pupils trembled without mercy.

“Hey there, brother. I don't want to pretend to be Isidor. He said he was my best friend before he was my political backer.”

“I should have a cup of tea, so why are you going so far? Do you think I should run with my gloves on and have a political battle with the Duke of Visconti?”

“Come on, wait. The fact that they tormented me for three days and three nights asking for a major overhaul of the biased empire's marriage law... I do not remember?”

The Crown Prince looked at my younger sister with his eyes like a bomb that was about to explode. anxious not knowing.

“Hmm! I'll take care of that as it is, and the princess... got engaged.”

“Um? I thought you wouldn't admit it.”

The prince thought it was a little surprising. It's because my younger brother always saw the end when he got stuck on something.

“Even though I have no back, I know how to keep the line in front of me.”

5 The princess replied calmly.

If it wasn't for Isidor, Princess Deborah's betrothed partner, it would have been difficult to accept. She's called Deborah because she's the most ecstatic person she's ever met.

He is a man who is willing to wear pink for his partner, so he gives up with a big heart.

'Actually, there was no room to intervene.'

Feeling bitter, the princess spoke softly.

“… Still, Princess Deborah's best friend is me.”

After the unfortunate incident of summoning demons. She was recognized by the aristocratic society thanks to the princess resuming her social life at a party I was holding. The two of us are best friends.

“By the way, who else does the princess have any friends other than you? Ugh!”

The princess suddenly closed her mouth, and the Crown Prince was unable to speak.

“She doesn't have any close friends other than me! That's right! How good is the princess's personality... Hmm? · It's cool. ”

“okay… ?”

My brother seemed to be very suspicious, so the 5th princess, who had an oval, impulsively raised a quill to write an invitation.

‘But, who else have you been friends with other than me? '

She squeezed her memory tight.

“kyaaa!! ”

“Uh, what’s going on? ”

“My sister Michelle said she received an invitation from the 5th Princess.”

That night, Michelle's shouts of joy echoed through the night in the writer's residence after Granbert Hu.

I actually managed a stable run for the new Annihilation stage on the 2nd week it was up, but only getting to post about it now. Below is my general team positions, minus Archetto who is on cooldown after being merc’d (without me even noticing at the point I took the screenshot).

I’d previously tried to build around the top left corner, but it took too many units to hold and while I could keep it stable, the bottom kept getting murdered by boats. This time I moved everyone back and spread them out more. I started with vanguard until around the 200 mark where I pulled back Myrtle who had been in the space behind Hoshiguma. Then around 250 I pulled back Zima, who was replaced with Nearl. At this point everything is pretty automated except for skills and placing Archetto on the spot above the gramophone to help with the explody dudes.

Everyone’s roles:

Myrtle and Zima, come out immediately to make DP. Zima blocks the dogs up top.

Saria comes to block the other part of the gate and to heal Zima as needed.

Summer Ch’en goes facing down next to the gramophone to charge it and start charging her 3rd skill. She can hold that point almost by herself. In between getting other units out, I start to drop rafts in the shape of her skill range so that as soon as someone gets into range, she drops them.

Ifrit goes behind the gate to assist Zima because as more dogs start coming and getting tougher, she can’t kill them fast enough by herself. She’ll tear through/weaken everyone coming through that zone.

I placed Astesia below Ch’en to help block enemies and deal people who will later he blocked by Hoshiguma.

Mulberry and Whisperain come out to heal everyone as needed. I love their wide ranges, and I placed Mulberry on a raft. Finding the correct place for her was probably the hardest part of this new set-up. If the exploding guys get too close, she dies, which is obviously not ideal. Mulberry keeps the boat casters from just tearing through my people, which is great.

Which is part of why I placed Archetto above the Gramophone. She’s useful for taking out the casters and weakening the explody guys, and is decently tanky because of her shield. Her extended range and double targeting on her S3 allows her to take out dudes before they become an issue. She does die a lot, but it’s much better than anyone else in the formation dying, so she’s doing her job. (Made me wish I’d raised April though to just keep fast redeploying her. Not sure she’d bee better than Archetto, but it felt like a place her niche would be useful.)

Hoshiguma comes in replacing Myrtle once the boat dudes start coming across. The early ones Ch’en and Astesia can deal with, but as they get stronger, I need to actually block them, especially between Ch’en cool down phase.

And lastly NTR Knight up top replacing Zima. I used her S3, but honestly her S1 would’ve worked find as well. She could’ve probably been swapped around with Asteia as her job is mostly to assist Saria in killing enemies that make it to that point. Ifrit has that top lane mostly handled, so she’s only doing minor blocking. The extended range of her S3 is nice for killing enemies before they get to where I don’t want them to, but I don’t think necessary.

vecinatati, limba romina si albaneza..

E FRUMOS IN AUSTRIA? Va place ce curat e in Austria? Va place ordinea din Germania? Va place ce civilizati sunt elvetienii? Va place dar nu va plac si obligatiile. Va place sa fiti respectati dar nu intelegeti sa ii respectati pe altii sau natura din jur. Regulile sunt pentru altii nu si pentru voi. Bai fratilor, ati inteles complet gresit democratia. Aveti studii, stiti engleza dar va lipseste civilizatia. Degeaba ai SUV daca esti tot la prima generatie incaltata si scoti gunoiul in fata usii la bloc sau arunci chistoacele pe geam. Azi Ciucu (primar sector) a anuntat ca pune o taxa pentru ridicare masini parcate aiurea pe spatiul public de 550 lei. Au sarit vreo 100 de insi ca e prea mare. E prea mare? Pai nu mai parca masina pe iarba, nu mai bloca drumuri si trotuare. E simplu. Cand am adus vorba de impozite suplimentare pentru proprietarii de caini tinuti in apartamente ati sarit ca arsi. Dar e frumos in Germania sau in Olanda unde platesti impozit pe orice animal de casa si ai acte pe el ca pentru un om. Si ghici ce? Daca ai mai mult de unul, creste exponential impozitul. Si daca il scoti pe strada si nu strangi dupa el primesti amenda de iti sar ochii. Pentru ca civilizatia asa se educa. Vreti civilizatie ca in Germania dar nu va plac si regulile lor. Problema societatii asteia nu este doar educatia. Este mentalitatea si intelegerea unor mecanisme simple democratice. De aceea suntem un fel de Indie a Europei. Cartierele arata ca ghetourile, spatiile verzi sunt neingrijite, de aceea aruncati gunoaie pe strada si in natura. Vi se pare normal. Asa fac toti. V-ati obisnuit in mizerie si nu o mai vedeti. Cereti sa se faca, sa vi se dea dar voi nu oferiti nimic. Nici macar dupa cainii vostri nu strangeti si vi se pare aberant ca in Singapore platesti sute de euro amenda daca mesteci guma si o arunci pe jos. Cand ma duc in vreo vacanta evit zonele cu romani. E simplu. Nu vreau manele pe plaja, mi-e rusine mie de rusinea lor cand vad cum lasa munti de gunoaie pe plaja, cum se striga ca in padure, cum deranjeaza un restaurant intreg cand intra grupul de fini, nasi si veri. Ati crede ca sunt exceptii dar eu cred ca este regula. In tara asta omul cu bun simt a ajuns exceptia. ............... Totul este tolerabil, totul este discutabil. Orice regula, orice lege are o portita pentru smecherie. Lucrurile sunt simple fratilor si pleaca de la voi. Comportati-va civilizat, moral si nu asteptati sa va faca statul. E teoria ferestrelor sparte (search pe Google). De aceea singura varianta este civilizarea prin amenzi si sanctiuni drastice. Este singura varianta pentru tara asta. Reguli dure de comportament in societate, amenzi uriase si legea aplicata pentru toti fara exceptie. In 3 ani putem civiliza nesimtirea. Nu sunt vreun adept al autoritarismului de nici un fel dar nu vad alta solutie pentru India Europei.

EXPOZIȚIE DESPRE VECINĂTĂȚI, LA MUZEUL DE ISTORIE SIGHIȘOARA În perioada iulie–septembrie 2020, la Muzeul de Istorie Sighișoara poate fi vizitată Expoziția temporară “Obiectul trimestrului –Vecinătățile”. Expoziția cuprinde obiecte de vecinătate: însemn de vecinătate, o ștampilă, un convocator, o casetă de bani și un vas de lemn. Expoziția poate fi vizitată la etajul 2, Sala de farmacie, în programul de funcționare al Muzeului de Istorie Sighișoara. Vecinătăţile din Sighişoara sunt menţionate pentru prima dată în documente în anul 1526. “Vecinătăţile sunt o instituţie socială, instituţie bazată în primul rând pe principiul tradiţionalităţii. Acest tip de organizare a fost adus la noi de saşii transilvăneni odată cu sosirea lor aici între anii 1141-1161. Din vecinătate făceau parte iniţial toţi bărbaţii saşi căsătoriţi şi "posesori de gospodărie". Stăpânul casei reprezenta în vecinătate gospodăria sa, şi era sprijinit - dacă era cazul de tatăl său, sau de câtre fiul său căsătorit. Femei, copii şi oameni fără pământ sau casă erau excluşi de la participarea nemijlocită. La oraş condiţia pentru a fi membru, era să ai propria casă. Toţi membrii aveau drepturi egale, şi aparţineau pe viaţă instituţiei. În fiecare vecinătate săsească “ältere Nachbarvater” (tatăl mai în vârstă al vecinătăţii) era conducătorul vecinătăţii care era ales la “Richttag”-ul (balul) anual. Sarcina lui era pe de o parte să vegheze asupra comportamentului vecinilor, pentru ca acesta să corespundă normelor transmise şi stabilite din bătrâni, pe de altă parte trebuia ca prin activitatea sa să exemplifice prevederile statutelor. Printre îndatoririle lui se numărau: convocarea şi conducerea întrunirilor, repartizarea vecinilor pentru activităţi de ajutor bisericeşti sau sociale şi supervizarea acestora, transmiterea de hotărâri şi ordine de la prezbiteriu, parohie, sau autorităţile comunale, informarea instituţiilor corespunzătoare asupra greutăţilor sociale şi economice din vecinătatea sa, aplanarea conflictelor dintre vecini, păstrarea moralei şi tradiţiilor în comunitate, transmiterea valorilor şi normelor tineretului, împiedecarea vânzări gospodăriilor şi terenurilor săseşti către alte etnii, reprezentarea vecinătăţi în cazuri sociale la prezbiteriu şi pedepsirea vecinilor în cazurile abaterilor de la normele vecinătăţii. Printre valorile materiale pe care le-au adus, saşii transilvăneni au adus cu ei un lucru care nu are greutate şi nici nu ocupa loc în valize, şi anume spiritul comunitar, deschiderea spre ajutorul reciproc, acceptarea celuilalt şi participarea la viaţa sa. Astfel putem spune că vecinătăţile sunt dovada puternicului spirit civic şi a solidarităţii sociale, fapt ce a caracterizat populaţia de origine germană.” Carmen-Lavinia Avram, muzeograf, Muzeul de Istorie Sighișoara.

Singura limba care se aseamana cu limba albaneza este romana. Unul dintre lingvistii romani care s-a ocupat de studierea legaturii intre limbile albaneza si cea romana, Mihai Ciocârlie, argumenteaza ca orice studiu al originii albanezilor trebuie să porneasca an primul rand de la legaturile stranse dintre romana şi albaneza. Interpretarea acestora nu poate sa duca decat la concluzia ca romanii şi albanezii au reprezentat candva acelasi popor, din care o parte a fost romanizata, iar alta nu. Faptul că mai mult de jumatate din cuvintele de fond preromanice, din limba romana se regasesc doar în albaneza, ne împiedica sa acceptam ideea ca la baza celor două limbi moderne s-au aflat două limbi diferite, doar intr-o anumita masura inrudite intre ele. Legaturile dintre romana si albaneza sunt numeroase si au constituit întotdeauna unul din argumentele principale ale teoriei imigrationiste.– In primul rand, dintre cele 160 de cuvinte considerate dacice din limba romană, 90 se regăsesc şi în albaneză. Multe din aceste cuvinte sunt cuvinte de bază ale celor două limbi (brad, manz, gat, buza, etc.) si aparţin evident unui fond arhaic.– Exista multe alte asemanari: sunetul ă comun celor 2 limbi (scris ë în albaneza), trecerea lui n in r (rotacismul lui n), ritmul cuvintelor (/ \ _ ), articolul postpus – la acestea se mai adauga si numeroase evolutii de cuvinte.– Orice lingvist recunoaste in aceste asemanari un fond comun si nu simple imprumuturi, datorate convietuirii pe acelasi teritoriu. Este evidenta inrudirea genetica dintre cele doua popoare.– Albaneza, desi nu este o limbă romanica, prezinta o componentă latina importanta. Trebuie remarcat ca elementul latin vechi este foarte asemanator cu cel al romanei: vocalism identic si diferit de cel al celorlalte limbi romanice, folosirea dubla a articolului, aceeasi forma pentru genitiv si dativ (desi exista cele doua cazuri distincte), multe cuvinte care lipsesc in celelalte limbi romanice sau care au primit un sens nou doar in cele doua limbi, ş.a.
