Revealing How She Did It

"Ack—!" 

Christine let out a grunt as soon as my sister dropped her dorn to the floor, butt first. From the academy's great hall, I teleported the three of us into the living room of my secret villa within the empire, the one we used as my rendezvous with Elise. 

Earlier, while I was still holding my sister, I told her that we could not make the prince change her mind no matter what we did. Seeing how bad the situation was, we decided to just get Christine out of here, hence our current situation. By the way, our families were not aware of this plan, and they had nothing to do with it. 

"Where on earth did you bring me?!" 

"In a secret villa owned by us, though we are still in the empire." 

"Isn't possessing an undeclared asset illegal?! It doesn't matter right now; what do you think you are doing, Louise?!" Christine yelled as she was getting herself up. 

"I am keeping you away from the conflict. You should be grateful we are helping you."
