《The Villainess Is Being Doted on by the Crown Prince of the Neighboring Country》


 1 1. Memories of Previous Life and Maiden Games

    Royal Lapis Lazuli School.


    This is a learning ground attended by royalty, nobility and some civilians with magic aged between 12 and 16.


    Studying academia and socialization, after graduation, for a year, each becomes an apprentice on the road ahead. What makes you a knight, what makes you a samurai, each begs your senior to teach you to be alone. A bridesmaid who is to be married will go to her wedding home for a year to train as a bridesmaid.


    - It was now during the afternoon class, but a girl, one of the students, made a noise and rose out of her chair.


    She is Tiara Rose Lapis Clamentir. She is the daughter of the Marquis family in this country and the fianc¨¦e of Prince Wang.


    Something comes to the attention of the students, but Tiara Rose silently roughened her breath and distorted her face painfully.


    "What''s the matter, Tiara?"


    "... ugh"


    Halt Knights, the same class and fianc¨¦ of Tiara Rose, rises first and heads under Tiara Rose. This is followed by a friendly warrant with her, who looks worried.


    But Halt Knights'' call is also vain, and Tiara Rose flutters on the spot.


    Honey pink fluffy hair dances and beautiful eyes are tightly closed. Which warrant was the scream that soared up?


    "Oh no... Me, villain..."


    Leaving a grunt that no one could understand, Tiara Rose let go of consciousness - ¡­.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    ''Yay, new stills! Now the Halt Knights route is a complete offense!!''


    With a groaning voice, the sight of a girl playing a maiden game floats in Tiara Rose''s brain.


    And the stage of that game was here, The Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli.


    I didn''t mean to say, "Huh?," she shouts. But the question is solved in an instant. Because a ton of information came into Tiara Rose''s brain.


    - This is information from my previous life.


    It was reincarnated into the world of the popular maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring.


    A magical fantasy maiden game reminiscent of the Middle Ages.


    Attackees are princes, brother-in-law, knights, mages, and school healers.


    I could instantly understand that, Tiara Rose, but soon I also understood my position.


    She stands in the way of heroine in this game -... that she''s a villain''s warrant.


    The heroine of this maiden game is the adopted daughter of Count Borderline. She had a powerful magic power, from a civilian to an aristocratic adoptive daughter... to this school in Wangdu, comes as an integrator.


    Heroin incorporated it two years ago. Tiara Rose remembered her past life memories, but of course she also remembers firmly the present life she lives as Tiara Rose.


    Calculate the date and count to the end of the game. And soon enough, I know it''s too late.


    Because today is the day before the graduation party, which is the ending. Tomorrow at the party, Tiara Rose is forced to break her engagement to her fianc¨¦, Halt Knights.


    Haltnights Lapis Lazuli Lactomut.


    He is the main offensive character of this maiden game and the first prince of the Lapis Lazuli kingdom.


    Until he was tied to heroine, he was the fianc¨¦e of Tiara Rose, a villain''s warrant.


    ".................. sucks"


    Tiara Rose''s voice, slowly opening her eyes and squeaking, was supposed to disappear into the air. But there was a response to that voice.


    "Are you awake?... yet, it''s good to sleep. I''m arranging a carriage right now."


    "Huh?... Master Halt Knights? Me, uh."


    "It''s the first time you''ve fallen.... because I''m all about the clams, did you even think about pulling it off?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose swallows much more endurance that she is about to raise her voice to the words of Halt Knights. I think they said something rude, but even if Haltnights is the king prince of this country.


    Tiara Rose was anxious to see what he was up to as he was firmly attacked by heroines. If you say something that bothers you, they''ll tell you it''s disrespectful.


    "... no. I''m sorry for the inconvenience because I don''t seem to be feeling very well."


    "For once, I''m Tiara''s fianc¨¦e."


    - Once (...).


    To the words, Tiara Rose leans down. I have no choice. Anyway, Haltnights is obsessed with Akali, the heroine.


    - It''s like a Japanese name.


    "Lapis Lazuli''s Ring" is where the player enters his name. That''s why heroines don''t have officially set names. Tiara Rose decided to think it must be that name because it''s a game for the Japanese.


    "... I''m having a graduation party tomorrow, but I need a little help. I''m sorry, but I''m not going to be able to escort you in."


    Don''t seem sorry at all and tell Tiara Rose that Haltnights stays asleep in bed.


    Blonde hair, blue eyes. I admire that look even when someone sees it, but now I''m looking terribly cold. Look at Tiara Rose, who doesn''t respond to anything, but Halt Knights says nothing.


    "¡­¡­¡­ I understand. Tomorrow, I''m going to the venue by myself."


    After a while of silence, it was Tiara Rose who opened her mouth.


    How humiliating is a party where your fianc¨¦e doesn''t escort you?


    ... but she knows that Halt Nights and Heroine are waiting for her at the party venue where she enters by herself and starts her own culpability event.


    I''ve played the game many times. Of course Tiara Rose knows what the development will be.


    The playroute is Haltnights of the King Prince, the first prince of the Lapis Lazuli kingdom.


    He was the most popular, it''s already, even... drowning heroin. Whisper sweet dialogue with a gentle smile and after the ending have a grand wedding in a cathedral that only royalty can use.


    Before I met Heroine, Tiara Rose was in her fianc¨¦ position. But Tiara Rose doesn''t have to give Halt Knights to hit the heroine with tough words.


    It is tomorrow''s graduation party that will be convicted of that.


    - But how the hell are you willing to plead not guilty?


    Is it because Tiara Rose had a reincarnated soul? It doesn''t seem as bad as the game I remember.


    Indeed, at the night club, he cautioned, "I don''t dance twice with men who aren''t even fianc¨¦es," he said.


    "I have a fianc¨¦e," he told the man who had a fianc¨¦e when he did the body touch.


    It may have turned out to be a tough tone, but it was common sense, and the young lady, who was a male fianc¨¦, was shaking her face anxiously.


    What is the problem with Tiara Rose, the Marquis'' maiden who gives Lapis, paying attention to the Count''s maiden? Unless, of course, this was the opposite position.


    Besides, Tiara Rose is a Marquis family with the title "Lapis¡±. There will only be enough in this country to count, such as those who can defy.


    Title of Lapis. A house of great merit for the royal family has the honour of adding the ¡°Lapis¡± of the Lapis Lazuli kingdom to the family name.


    This is very expensive, and it is not what you get. For this reason, it is the nobility who gave ¡°Lapis¡± the next power over the royal family.


    Next, it follows with the Duke, Marquis, Count, Viscount and Baron.


    "You snort quite honestly."


    Halt Knights face with her eyes open to surprise enters Tiara Rose''s sight.


    Tiara Rose has been a firm fianc¨¦ until now. Admittedly, she had a tough spot, but for that matter, she had been educated to be queen since she was a little girl.


    It shall not be seen lightly by the less privileged. Nor should Haltnights, Prince Wang, act lightly.


    Tiara Rose must socialize perfectly and take a good look at Halt Knights'' behavior. Otherwise, Halt Knights "is a social study" and sometimes it''s like going out in a rush to the city.


    Tiara Rose is considered a villain''s warrant in the game. But some of those spicy words were firmly rooted in his love for Hartnights, the King''s Prince.


    I realized that because she was reincarnated and became a tiara rose herself.


    - But that doesn''t seem to have been properly communicated to Master Halt Knights...


    "Because you can''t be selfish and trouble Master Haltnights"


    "Usually, would you say it''s insane, such as not accompanying your fianc¨¦e?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - What, are you saying the obvious? This prince.


    You know that, but you still want me to go in alone? Impossible. Tiara Rose gets swept up in Halt Knights words and deeds.


    If ever, of course I paid attention. As a fianc¨¦, as Prince Wang, he said he should never act embarrassed.


    But not now. Tiara Rose has already given up her memories of her past life.


    Tomorrow''s ending is a matter of decision. And I can see from Halt Knights attitude that he doesn''t attach importance to Tiara Rose.


    Her voice will not reach Halt Knights right now.


    "Well, fine. It would be more helpful if you could convince me."


    "Yes."


    "Then I''ll go back. After this, I have a promise I can''t take off."


    "Thank you for caring for me when I fell"


    A squire who kept the door of the infirmary outside opens. Halt Knights left intact and one Tiara Rose was left indoors.


    "... you went out of your way to pay people. You''re right, otherwise you won''t be able to tell me a thing I don''t like."


    In a shimmering room, Tiara Rose''s voice sounds well. One sigh, and it bothers my head what I''m going to do.


    Why don''t we just miss tomorrow''s graduation party? Such an idea passes through the back of the brain, but it strikes right off. It is not nice to hear from the outside that the daughter of the Marquis family, who gives Lapis, is not present.


    I just hate to bother my parents.


    "What would have happened to the convicted villain warrant?... Yes, it was definitely an expulsion!


    In the game, there is no detailed description of Tiara Rose after the plea. I recall, however, that there was a sentence stating that he had been deported from the country at the ending lol.


    It''s good not to be condemned to death or anything like that. So relieved, then I think it might be fun to reopen and live outside the country.


    Though Marquis, if Prince Wang breaks his engagement...... it''s hard to hope for a happy marriage. There will be tons of Lapis titles and guys flocking to power, but I refuse to do that.


    "Outside the country, making love, living as a civilian...... Yeah, that could be happy, too."


    Tiara Rose''s words, brought about by the puffiness, were very soft, not in the difficult tone he had ever spoken to Haltnights.


    - Besides, if I marry such a prince... the absolute future must be a streak of hard work.


    Tiara Rose sighs another time.


    "Tomorrow, I wonder what the hell will happen..."


    I have anxiety in my chest, but I know how it unfolds.


    Be quiet and accept the divestiture and gently exit the party venue. So determined, Tiara Rose waited for the ready carriage to go home.

 2 2. Heroin and Fiancee Visits

    "... ha"


    Tiara Rose brings back memories of her previous life, one day. Today is graduation party day, the end of the game.


    I did my homework and went to school without an escort. Now, I''m soothing my mind with tea in the guest room where it''s provided.


    "Dear Tiara Rose,... Again, why don''t you tell your husband and escort him?


    "It''s okay, Philine. Your father has a job to do, so it''s gonna be annoying."


    "But..."


    Filine, a samurai, worries about Tiara Rose and speaks up. But stop it, "It''s okay," Tiara Rose smiles.


    Normally, if you don''t have someone to escort you, such as your fianc¨¦e, it is common for you to have relatives... For this graduation party, the lady with no other partner usually asks her father or male brother to escort her.


    But Tiara Rose''s father is a heavy town in the country, and he also has a job at today''s graduation party. His Majesty the King will participate, so he has an important role to play as an assistant.


    It''s about a father who loves his daughter. Leaving the king alone and escorting Tiara Rose is visible. For that reason, Tiara Rose dared not tell her father anything.


    "But... Well, sure, if your father sees me entering alone..."


    "If you see...?


    "... you must be mad. Could I have misjudged you?"


    "Dear Tiara Rose..."


    To Philine''s voice like that out there, but Tiara Rose thinks.


    In the end, where his father went mad, the Villain Warrant Lady Decriminalization Event would be held as it were. Either way, my father''s consciousness will go that way, so the escort thing won''t matter like that. And, of course, other students and invitees. And I hope so in the corner of my mind, Tiara Rose thinks.


    "Me, I''m still worried about Master Tiara Rose. If it''s hard for you, why don''t you tell this Filine?


    "Yes. Thank you, Philine. Just because you''re on my side is enough."


    Since Tiara Rose was a little girl, she grew up like two sisters.


    Even if the order of Tiara Rose, a samurai and master, was absolute -... when something happens, I swear to my heart I will definitely help you.


    In Philine''s words, Tiara Rose calms her mind, and in less than an hour, a culpable event begins in the name of a graduation party.


    Tiara Rose thinks it''s a good thing that she''s beside me right now, a spirited filine. Otherwise, I might not have been able to work my way forward.


    "It was. Dear Tiara Rose, I had some sweet cookies for you."


    "Sweets! Glad, thank you, Philine."


    "Yes, I''ll pour you some tea, too."


    So that my husband, Tiara Rose, feels a little relieved. Filine is going to set up tea and cookies.


    At the very least, I wanted you to smile until you left for the graduation party alone. The more I think about it, the lower Halt Knights stock falls in the filine.


    Why not escort Master Tiara Rose, whom I serve? I wonder how many reasons, but still think under the smile that it would be unforgivable.


    At that time, the sound of knocking on the door echoes into the room.


    "... philline"


    "Yes, please wait a moment"


    When they say the graduation party is just around the corner, the two look at each other in the face and neck each other wondering who the hell has been visiting.


    Tiara Rose reached for the prepared cookies without worrying that there might be something to convey from the teacher. Tiara Rose loved delicious treats, including in her previous life.


    The status of Marquis has played a great role in this one point, as civilians cannot afford much extravagance.


    "Mmm, delicious..."


    Ho...... and flour on superb eggs, eating cookies with a sweet smile like a treat. All the treats Tiara Rose talks about are first-class.


    I was just about to reach for another cookie, but that hand stopped in the voice I was called to.


    "Dear Tiara, are you feeling okay?


    "Dear Akali, I have trouble getting in suddenly!!"


    "...... Huh!!"


    Tiara Rose shakes her body in horror at the suddenly rising voice of the heroine.


    Filine calls it "Dear Acari" again, but the heroine - Acari came indoors without the way she cared about that.


    I think look at that and do it, but I can''t handle it that way. Tiara Rose deliberately makes a surprised face and sees the clams as she takes her seat.


    "Well. Good day, Dear Acari. Thank you for your concern."


    "Good day, Dear Tiara"


    It is the heroine in this maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring who smiles and greets back.


    Straight brunette with pitch-black eyes. I have an innocent smile on my face, but I can''t feel the atmosphere is very calm.


    And -... no matter what you think, I''m Japanese.


    The heroine that Tiara Rose saw again since she remembered her memories of her previous life was the shaping of a Japanese without deception.


    Nevertheless...... I never thought they''d shake off Filine''s stop and let me in. Something annoys me in my heart, but Tiara Rose smiles and responds.


    Just because they behave like children doesn''t mean they will behave the same way. This is the Marquis, and Acari is the Count. Of course I can praise you for being disrespectful, but Tiara Rose thinks it''s troublesome even that.


    Anyway, he said he was about to be acquitted and deported from the country.


    "I was worried yesterday because he suddenly collapsed in the classroom. Master Haltnights brought Tiara to the infirmary. And he''s worried, and Haltnights is so sweet."


    "Yeah, that''s right"


    Halt Knights is Tiara Rose''s fianc¨¦e, so it''s only natural to worry. How much do you want to insult Tiara Rose, such as being told that''s because Halt Knights is kind?


    It''s a heroine you''re not going to like. Yes, Tiara Rose just thought about it, and Filine came back with Halt Knights.


    "Good day, Your Highness. Haltnights."


    Tiara Rose takes an attitude from the time of the acari and immediately stands up to thank the lady.


    I can''t believe you even came to Halt Knights. I can''t believe you told me you couldn''t do an escort, but I can''t believe you brought another woman near the start of the graduation party. What a humiliation.


    Behind it stands Filine with a face like a noodle. I laugh bitterly that I''m definitely angry, but I instruct you to prepare tea.


    "Oh, I was worried about Tiara. How are you feeling... Are you feeling okay with today''s graduation party?


    "Yes, I took a good night off, no problem"


    - I see. Am I attending the graduation party properly, or are you here to confirm? You say it''s on your busy body, but it''s something you have free time for. And I would also like to say one of my dislikes.


    Acari sits across from the couch where Tiara Rose is sitting, and Halt Knights sits next to it. Neither can such an act be tolerated next to my fianc¨¦e, Tiara Rose... but Haltnights does not flatter acari.


    "Master Tiara seemed well and relieved. Hey, Master Halt Knights!


    "Right."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Acari laughs innocently and takes Halt Knights arms. You guys are a couple! That''s right. I suppress wanting to scratch, and I decide to get you out of here fast.


    There''s nothing special about it, but I can make as many reasons as I want.


    "Philine, maybe it''s time to finish the last one in time?


    Send a glimpse into the clock and tell the refraining Filine what wasn''t planned.


    "Right. If you don''t, you may not make it to the opening of the graduation party."


    "Huh! Dear Tiara, were you not ready yet?


    "Well, you seem to have come to a busy place. We''ll be in trouble if we don''t make it to the party, so we''ll excuse ourselves."


    "Yes, I didn''t take much time and I''m sorry"


    If I told you I might not make it to the graduation party, you could have gone home right away.


    Right, ''cause if you don''t make it, you won''t be able to schedule a plea event. An inner laugh engulfs Halt Nights who reacts too honestly.


    Firmly confirmed that the two had left the room, Filine immediately reveals her anger and opens her mouth.


    "What is it, those two!! Your Highness is His Highness, too, but Lady Akali is so rude! Tiara Rose is called Tiara, etc... Aren''t you being too rude!!"


    "... right. I''ve been cautious a few times, but it seems like Akali will forget it over time."


    "Well...... That''s terrible, you''ve got an unfortunate head."


    I can''t seem to forgive my disrespect for my husband, and Filine goes on to say even more.


    "Why does His Highness not praise the Akali either... That would be a terrible disrespect for the royalty, too. It''s inconceivable to let such a man daughter-in-law my dear Tiara Rose. Why don''t you just throw away your engagement? If you were my husband, you''d agree with me with a smile!


    "Already, Philine. It would be disrespectful if I told you in front of your Highness, wouldn''t it?


    "Of course, you''re not here now!


    "No matter what you say, no one''s listening," said Philine, who fully covers Tiara Rose.


    Usually, Tiara Rose praises Philine for not saying such things, but I even think she should say more about this one.


    - I think like this because I''m sure my memory of my previous life is back.


    "... but I''m so glad to hear how Philine feels. Thanks."


    "Dear Tiara Rose..."


    Philine is surprised that there is not always a word of praise that should have been said and on the contrary thanked. After all, I am convinced that my husband does not want this marriage to be engaged.


    Philine thinks about how Tiara Rose can be happy, but it''s not something that comes to mind right away.


    When it comes to being able to do so, it''s about putting together a terrible attitude towards Tiara Rose in Halt Nights and reporting it to Marquis, Tiara Rose''s father.


    "All right. I''ll do my best for Dear Tiara Rose!


    "Philine? Uh, don''t push me too hard, okay?


    Tiara Rose smiled without stopping because Filine was motivated to suddenly tilt her neck wondering what was going on. I was wondering what I was going to do...

 3 3. Convicted Graduation Party: Part One

    In front of the venue where the graduation party is held, Tiara Rose stands in a spirit of pride.


    If you open this door, it''s a guilty pleas event that starts. Halt Knights waits with Akali, and the other attackers are beside him to cover Halt Knights.


    - When I get in front of you, your body shivers.


    "Dear Tiara Rose..."


    "I''m fine, Philine. Okay, I''ll be there."


    "... Yes. Welcome. I''ll see you soon, too."


    Filine, a samurai, enters the venue through another door, so that''s all we can do together. Of course, we can rendezvous inside the venue, but the samurai are basically waiting between refrains.


    Take a big, deep breath and calm your mind. Signalling the knight to open the door, Tiara Rose slowly and gracefully moved her legs.


    The warrants and warrants that had already been in the venue opened her eyes to see Tiara Rose, who had entered alone, unlikely. And he made sure Haltnights was in the venue, and everyone on the spot took a breath.


    The venue, seen through a wide open door, was already gorgeous. The many flowers used for luxury even seemed like a dream world. Arranged dishes and drinks can also be seen as top-notch at a glance.


    ...... but they soon disappear from Tiara Rose''s sight.


    - It starts, right?


    In the center of the venue, Haltnites and Acari stand side by side.


    Then the attackers of this game. It''s a strange thing to be here, even though you have no contact with any of the attackers other than Halt Nights. Game correction, is that what it is?


    If Tiara Rose thinks about that, Halt Knights'' voice sounds to the venue.


    "Tiara Rose, I''m here now to announce the break-up of your engagement."


    As soon as possible. I get dizzy at a venue that was quiet.


    Haltnights, the first prince of this country, slammed his engagement into the princess of the Marquis family with Lapis.


    With a small voice, "Impossible" from all over the venue, "Who the hell is the woman beside His Highness?" "What do you mean?" "Why, Master Tiara Rose?" I hear voices.


    But even if the king and prince of this country proclaimed it exalted. The gaze is directed toward Tiara Rose.


    Tiara Rose stays on a slow stride, going all the way to the front of Halt Nights and gracefully giving a bowl of grace.


    "¡­ may I ask why?


    And slowly, ask Halt Knights why.


    Tiara Rose didn''t do anything extraordinarily bad. I also remembered the contents of the culpable event well, and the simulation was made during the night.


    "Reason? Tiara Rose, why don''t you ask your own chest. You''re not saying you don''t know, are you?


    "I don''t know."


    "... Huh!


    Raise your voice so that you immediately deny the words of Halt Knights. Tiara Rose looks forward with Rin''s eyes, saying she has done nothing wrong.


    But because I watched too closely - my father and His Majesty the King entered my sight. He seemed to have already been on the top seat at the party venue, watching Tiara Rose with a stunned (just) face.


    In the game, he was in the venue but didn''t intervene at all. For that reason, Tiara Rose hadn''t really thought about it -... especially her father, the Marquis Clamentile, with a face that she couldn''t say would not intrude.


    Tiara Rose continues her words, as she decides not to have seen them.


    "I have done nothing to be ashamed. But if Master Haltnights wants someone else, shouldn''t we go through a solid process?


    "It''s disrespectful to answer the royalty, Tiara!


    At the same time as Halt Knights'' voice, which ruled firm Tiara Rose''s claim disrespectful, his father takes one step forward.


    - There was no Marquis Clamenteal intrusion event in the game!


    Tiara Rose hurriedly turned her gaze to her father and shook her head. I was going to tell him that it was okay... but is it well communicated?


    Has the feeling been conveyed, the father undoes the foot he steps out of. In the meantime, relieved that it was good, Halt Knights'' voice immediately echoes to the venue.


    "I hear you''ve said a lot about Miss Akali coming from the border land.... Akali, would you have been scared?


    "... Yes. But Halt Knights was here, so it was okay."


    "Right."


    Halt Knights to move on without giving any specific reasons. Acari, leaning gently against Haltnights, wept as she dyed her cheeks.


    People who can''t swallow the situation at all don''t want to see this romantic sight with a pompous face.


    In the first place, Tiara Rose has never justified herself on the grounds that it was a frontier land, even if she had ever praised her deeds. Also, basically other humans were present because there was no such thing as being two with Akali.


    Tiara Rose gets anxious that she hasn''t looked into it, even though she''ll know as soon as she makes sure.


    In the game, there was no such thing as submitting evidence, but will it continue to be treated like that even now that it is moving as a reality? That being the case, Halt Knights is going to be pretty stupid.


    Tiara Rose sighs one thing and asks again.


    "His Highness Halt Knights. So, I''m not sure."


    "Say it yet. You said to Akari," Kneel down and don''t dance with me... "


    I finally got the specifics, but that was too naive.


    "His Royal Highness Haltnights is revealed to be the King Prince, so it is only natural courtesy for us to kneel down and give thanks. I don''t have a problem with these parties, but isn''t it natural when I greet you for the first time..."


    "I see. But isn''t it too tyrannical to say don''t dance? I''m dancing with other ladies, but why would I say that only to Akari?"


    "That''s because Akali was danced with Halt Knights more than twice. No way, His Royal Highness, Prince Wang... you don''t know what that means, do you?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    It is common sense that the first greeting to the royal family is always to kneel down and thank you the very best. Since then, there have been no problems with the courtesy of ladies at tea parties and night clubs.


    Tiara Rose cautioned because Acari didn''t do it. "We greet the royal family with the utmost gratitude," he said.


    It also means that it is your fianc¨¦e who dances with the same opposite sex more than twice. For the first time as a couple, you are allowed to dance more than three times.


    In the nobility of this country, it is not good to know it. Yet Akali applied to Halt Nights for a dance and danced twice.


    Don''t you see how humiliating that was for Tiara Rose? Even though I say that I am more fond of acari than Tiara Rose, I am the one who showed attitude around me.


    "Was there a problem somewhere?


    "Yes, but...! Akali always said he was terrible. I guess I''ve always used cold words."


    To the words of the rightful Tiara Rose, Haltnites nevertheless continues the words. Do you not realize that it is already becoming disjointed?


    Tiara Rose, who is proud to be the daughter of the Marquis, never makes cheap remarks.


    "Does His Highness Haltnites consider me such a man?


    "Think or nothing, it will be now"


    "... I have never met you two with Akali. There were always other courtiers with us...... Didn''t you look into it?


    - With this look, I guess I haven''t looked into it.


    I''ll put up with wanting to sigh again a lot, and try to put my neck up like I''m in trouble.


    Haltnites hastily told Acari, "Were there others?" Ask.


    "Uh... Right, there was someone around Dear Tiara. I think it was Mr. Furluane and Mr. Marietta."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    What Akali tells you is a young lady who is surrounding Tiara Rose (...).


    "Around...?


    Who would have uttered the word? From the shimmering venue, the lady''s voice echoes.


    The one who panicked about it was Halt Knights, who was next to Akali.


    In this country, no, this game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring has no expression of surroundings. Though the player used the phrase, surrounded by a villain warrant lady.


    I mean, that''s a very disrespectful word.


    "Akari, what are you saying...... Huh! Tiara''s, is that your friend?


    "Huh? Yeah, right"


    Acari, on the other hand, seemed to not know what he shouldn''t have done, and he snapped his neck.


    "Dear Acari, they are my dear friends. ¡­ don''t say that."


    "Also, is that how you say it terribly to me? I, Master Tiara, didn''t say anything about being disturbed!


    "I can''t believe it''s awful..."


    An acari who fails to understand what that means abhors his voice to Tiara Rose.


    Tiara Rose cared about her friend and just paid attention to Akali. Other students and invitees at the party venue are familiar with that.


    With the blurring, I was surprised by the clams and heard a whispering leak.


    "His Highness Haltnights wants to break my engagement because I did terrible things to Lord Akali. And that''s the thing, right?


    "Ah, ah."


    "I have done nothing particularly terrible. ¡­ but the heart of His Highness Haltnights rests with Lord Akali"


    Tiara Rose, smiling lonely, was a pathetic hartnights assumption from anyone''s eyes and a pathetic young lady hurt by her love for Akali.


    Whoever sees it, it''s bad for the acari without common sense and the halt knights that have pelted the story. Maybe it''ll be a different ending to the game, Tiara Rose thinks.


    It''s nice to be disengaged here, but there''s no reason to deport Tiara Rose from the country.


    - If you end up like this, it''s probably the most peaceful route.


    With that in mind, Tiara Rose is in a bit of a mood. I thought marrying a royal family was a burden, and less free time.


    but although the best reason for the extreme is the desire not to marry Halt Knights.


    "Yes, but... Huh! It will be true that the acari was hurt because Tiara Rose did not give much explanation. I''m breaking up my engagement to Tiara Rose and getting engaged to Akali. In other words, Acari will be the queen of the future."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "That attitude towards the future queen, it is not acceptable. Tiara Rose, therefore, I will deport you outside the country!!"


    - What are you talking about, this prince? Are you stupid? You''re stupid, aren''t you?


    Now it was time for an extra-large sigh, and a father trembling with an angry face in Tiara Rose''s sight where he was going to do something.


    No, your father will explode -... I try to raise my voice if I don''t stop him, but the clear voice of a completely different man echoed the venue.


    "That''s it, Prince Haltnites. Isn''t your language worse than Miss Tiara Rose''s? - Hey, Miss Tiara Rose?

 4 4. Convicted Graduation Party: Part II

    The sweet and gentle voice that reached Tiara Rose''s ear was something that was not in the game''s development. But it - moistened the heart of Tiara Rose, who was anxious.


    Turning immediately to the Lord of the Voice, the person gave a reassuring smile.


    "It''s okay. You''re more beautiful with your chest up and proud than anyone else in this room."


    "Dear Aquasteed..."


    - Why, is he here?


    With deep blue hair shaking, Aquasteed passes beside Tiara Rose and stands in front of Halt Knights. The eyes that look straight ahead are as if Aquasteed were illusory that he was convicting Halt Knights.


    "... Prince Aquasteed. This is our problem."


    "No."


    Halt Knights tells Aquasteed to back off in the dark, without being frightened. But it immediately returns the word of denial.


    What should I do? And where Tiara Rose was a little anxious, Aquasteed turned around.


    "They broke up the engagement, didn''t they? -... then could you be my queen?


    "... Huh?


    "I''ve always admired you."


    To Aquasteed''s words, the venue forgot to bother...... the sound disappeared as if it were in space as well. By then, Aquasteed''s thoughts had been a shock.


    Tiara Rose also fails to understand what it means for a moment and opens her eyes wide open.


    No way, does anyone propose at this time? If it''s normal, it''s impossible. Even if you want to share your thoughts, there is an order.


    But Tiara Rose''s heart rocked tremendously.


    Aquasteed Marine Forest.


    He is the first prince and king prince of the neighboring kingdom of Marine Forest. In the same year as Tiara Rose, he had been studying in this royal kingdom of Lapis Lazuli for only one year.


    Although he is not the target of this game''s offense - he was informed that he was the main character in the second part, which is a sequel.


    However, Tiara Rose, who ended his life before the launch, cannot know exactly where he stands.


    "Suddenly, I think I surprised you. - But could you think about it?


    "Ah......"


    Unlike the harsh eyes directed at Halt Knights, Aquasteed knelt before Tiara Rose with a smile containing sweetness.


    Keep taking Tiara Rose''s hand and gently mouthing it to its back.


    For each of Aquasteed''s movements, Tiara Rose''s chest carves up the sound like an early bell.


    Tiara Rose has never done anything like this before from Halt Knights. Since he was the fianc¨¦ of Prince Wang, he had never been approached by any other warrant. I mean... I''m not immune.


    I don''t know what to do, but I can look at my father in the room asking for help with a red face. But he just nodded heavily at Tiara Rose''s gaze.


    - What do you want me to do, Father?


    Until earlier, I was likely to argue with Halt Knights... and now, I had arrived in the audience for the most part.


    Tiara Rose turns her gaze to Aquasteed, knowing that there is no help.


    "Thank you. I''m so glad to hear how Aquasteed feels."


    "Ma, wait... Huh!


    Tiara Rose smiled to Aquasteed, holding down her occasional heartbeat. Plus Aquasteed just smiled back - the voice of Akali, the heroine, echoed the venue.


    He shivers his body as he sifts and whispers, "That''s impossible," but I''m sure no one will hear that.


    of neighboring countries, and I guess you didn''t think it would block the words of Aquasteed, the king prince of a great power over Lapis Lazuli. Haltnights had his eyes wide open next to the acari.


    Is that disrespectful or something at all on your mind, Akali goes on to say.


    "Dear Tiara has just been the fianc¨¦e of Halt Knights!? I can''t believe she made such a person her own fianc¨¦e...! Dear Aquasteed, I think there are better people!!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Oh, my God.... and everyone in this venue would have thought.


    But Aquasteed didn''t say anything, and his gaze remains toward Tiara Rose as if he hadn''t heard.


    "Dear Aquasteed!


    "...... Huh!?"


    But the next moment, everyone in the venue takes a breath. Akali was able to make a small run under the Aquasteed and took that arm.


    "Dear Tiara, things are just a little tight. So please come here."


    "Dear Acari, This is our neighbour, His Highness Aquasteed. It''s not like someone is good to touch. Please let go of my hand."


    Exactly. This is not good. It''s not better as this country than the acari. Worst of all, it''s disrespectful to be cut off from interacting with the kingdom of Marine Forest.


    Why does Akali not even know such an easy thing? Tiara Rose spins her thoughts that we need to do something about this place while it bothers her her her mind.


    Still, you cut the paralysis on an inseparable acari, with your hands up. Aquasteed calls his own squire. Soon the acari would be pulled apart and everyone in the venue would have been relieved.


    "I am so sorry, Master Aquasteed. ¡­ although I don''t think it''s something to be forgiven"


    "It''s not what Miss Tiara Rose would say. Apologizing on this occasion is either - Prince Haltnites, isn''t it?


    "... oh!! too, sorry. Prince Aquasteed"


    "Well, let''s forgive"


    It changed earlier and really reversed my position.


    Aquasteed is the most dominant person on this scene right now. Akali''s selfish, in person, by the words and actions he said for Aquasteed.


    If Aquasteed sees Halt Knights with harsh eyes, the words of apology are immediately spun. It is not something that a king prince of a nation would immediately apologize for, but whoever sees all of this has an aberration in the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli.


    But if it is to be any more unfolding...... the load will be heavy on Halt Knights.


    Regrettably distorting his face is in the midst of a culpable event called divestiture, although everyone watching may think it pathetic. Naturally, most people would think so.


    "You''ve baffled me because I broke into this place. Don''t look so anxious, Miss Tiara Rose"


    "No...... I was helped by Aquasteed, and that''s what happened."


    Even if Aquasteed didn''t crack and get in, probably nothing would have happened to Tiara Rose. Looking at the current situation, Tiara Rose still decided so.


    It''s like a game, but it''s still too uncomfortable in the real world.


    "Hey! Let go of me!!"


    Akali, pulled apart by Aquasteed''s squire, tries to rumble, but it was until now that he was sidelined - the voice of the king.


    "That''s it."


    A low voice of majesty echoes the venue.


    Alexander Lapislazuli Lactomut of the Kingdom of Lapislazuli. He is only 37 years old and young, but he is also a good king with thick support from the people.


    "Father!?"


    "King! If you don''t stop Tiara first, you will be rude to Aquasteed."


    Halt Knights'' surprising voice and the voice of pulling Acari''s Tiara Rose away from Aquasteed. But he glanced at it, and the king bowed his head to Aquasteed.


    "People in my country did rude things"


    "- No, because I suddenly broke in, too."


    "Tolerant care, gratitude"


    Not only the prince, but even the king made an apology. This fact is terribly heavy for the nobility of the Lapis Lazuli kingdom. Everyone stares at the clams and tells them to leave quickly.


    "But I didn''t expect Prince Aquasteed to propose to Miss Tiara Rose"


    "Because I thought I only had a chance now. Your Majesty, and the Marquis of Klementir. Can you forgive me for marrying Miss Tiara Rose?


    "Hmm..."


    Aquasteed''s gaze turns to the Marquis of Clamentir, the father of Alexander and Tiara Rose.


    Everyone felt that the gaze was terribly serious and would be serious.


    Tiara Rose, who watches behind Aquasteed, overhears the two replies.


    "As far as I''m concerned, of course you''re welcome. It will be a good edge for our country and Marine Forest"


    "Thank you. ¡­ but the Marquis Clamenteal will still be anxious in a man like me in a pout"


    "... no. I''ve heard a lot about His Highness Aquasteed, too. My daughter, too, I''m sure you''ll take care of it. But my engagement to His Highness Haltnights, which I thought was a good idea, is precisely now - it has hurt my daughter. So I want to respect my daughter''s will."


    Tiara Rose''s father did not immediately accept the words of Aquasteed, the king prince of the great kingdom.


    Impossible, such as making a decision to refuse an offer of marriage from a royal family. But for the happiness of Tiara Rose, his father returned the words with determination that the Marquis of Clementil could even be acquitted.


    But against expectations, Aquasteed shakes his head.


    "You''re a good father, Marquis Clamenteal. Now, when I have received a good reply from Miss Tiara Rose¡­ again, I would like to say hello"


    "Dear Aquasteed... Huh"


    Tiara Rose panics about the word.


    But even if I say yes here, Aquasteed won''t be good. I would say you don''t have to give a good reply with care.


    "Me, too, it was too soon. But next time, can you give me some time to go out with you?


    ".................. Yes. Happy to."


    It was Tiara Rose, who breathed disrespect for her father''s words, but relieved of Aquasteed''s kindness.


    But why is such a sweet prince admiring himself? That kind of question comes to my mind, but I''m going to ask it when I go out.


    The King and the Marquis of Clementil grin deeply so as to watch over those two.


    "Everyone, I am so sorry that this is happening today. Halt Knights, exit as soon as possible. ¡­ everyone enjoy the rest of your time"


    Once again, the voice of the king echoed the venue, including Haltonites - officials withdrew from the scene.


    As for Tiara Rose, she is told to go home as soon as possible because her father, the Marquis of Clementil, will finish. It is a care, as a father.


    The escort was immediately offered, of course, by Aquasteed. "It''s helpful," he smiled, and Tiara Rose had to blush and say yes.


    Tonight there will be a discussion between Haltnites and the King and the Marquis of Klamentir, and the meeting with Aquasteed will be tomorrow.


    Akali, who watched as she stared at Tiara Rose being sent to Aquasteed, was to be placed under house arrest in a room in the Royal Palace until the discussion had settled.

 5 5. Prince of the Sequel

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    On the way home from the graduation party, the carriage was very quiet and calm. The vibration is not much of a concern either, as soft cushions are used in good quality cars.


    Tiara Rose takes a glimpse of the aquasteed sitting in front of herself, but immediately takes her gaze off. He thinks he hasn''t noticed, but Aquasteed does.


    I couldn''t hold my mouth loose when I saw how such a cute Tiara Rose was doing.


    Tiara Rose, who never thought Aquasteed was going to be like that, was thinking about the second part of the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, where this world is on stage - the sequel.


    - How could I not have lived before the sequel was released... no, at least until the details were released? Very regrettable.


    Prince Aquasteed, who didn''t come out in one part.


    That''s where Tiara Rose is now. Strangely, rather than, I can''t help but be suspicious.


    Besides, he proposed to Tiara Rose, a villain warrant position. To be honest, Tiara Rose''s head is in disarray at a completely different development than the game.


    - Should I talk to His Highness Aquasteed, rather than worrying about it myself anymore?


    Again, see the Aquasteed in a glimpse. As for Tiara Rose, really, don''t split...... I had intended to sneak up on her, but she smiled firmly.


    "I''m sorry," he apologizes, even though he thinks it''s a bad idea.


    "Why are you apologizing? I''m sending you Miss Tiara Rose."


    "No, the... Her Royal Highness Aquasteed is a woman''s admirer."


    ¡­¡­


    Aquasteed is a little surprised if Tiara Rose smiles like she''s in trouble.


    Because I didn''t think Tiara Rose would tell me that. Aquasteed gets even happier wondering if he can expect more than he thinks.


    "That''s what they say. Can I expect a little, too?


    "Ahhh!


    Words directed along with Aquasteed''s hot eyes echo on Tiara Rose''s chest.


    Aquasteed''s smile, which is so popular with young ladies, is only directed at herself, and she is not human enough to be normal. Hold the occasional chest with your hands and breathe small and deep.


    "Um..."


    "Yeah?"


    "Why did Master Aquasteed tell me...?


    Did you propose, and I was ashamed to keep saying it? Tiara Rose, who turned red and looked down, was red to her ears.


    "I always saw Miss Tiara Rose reading through the library window."


    "Huh? Oh, maybe behind the library?


    "Yes, I read in the shade of a tree, and I saw a cute, changing expression by the way."


    "Or cute...?


    As Aquasteed put it, Tiara Rose was reading a book in the shade behind the library if she had time.


    That was not to be ashamed of being queen in the future, but to acquire various, which is what teachers do not teach.


    When it comes to why I don''t use the library, it''s because I wanted to read while eating sweets. If it''s in the shade of a tree outside, you can eat sweets and read while drinking tea.


    Plus, there were no other students, so I was free to have a good time. The only person beside me was Philine, the samurai.


    - I can''t believe they were watching me, I''m ashamed.


    I read a lot of books that I could study, including history books and foreign languages. But at the same time, I read a lot about romance, etc.


    I wonder what the hell he looked like and read a book, and the embarrassment comes in. It would be Tiara Rose''s feeling right now to want to go in if there was a hole.


    "If you think you''re reading a book with a serious face, the next moment you can turn your face red and illuminate it. When I was crying, I thought I''d go speak up."


    "... Huh! Wow, forget it!!"


    What Aquasteed tells me is too embarrassing, and Tiara Rose covers her face with both hands. I''m ashamed, not very much, but I can''t show my face.


    But soon Aquasteed untied the hand that covered his face.


    "Huh...?


    "I''m with you because of this. Show me more faces?


    "...... Huh!!"


    With a sweet voice, he smiles like a whisper.


    "Well... I can''t believe they were watching me"


    "No - I, too, am sorry that it has taken the form of a peek. But I was captivated by you reading in the shade every day. [M] That''s amazing, even for myself."


    Lovingly enveloping Tiara Rose''s hand, she said, "Is that true?" and smile.


    "But you were Prince Haltnites'' fianc¨¦e. You can''t take away a royal fianc¨¦e from another country."


    "Ah..."


    Fianc¨¦e of Haltonites and promised Queen of the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli. That''s Tiara Rose. If I''m wrong, I can''t even sign up for an engagement instead of a marriage.


    For that reason, Aquasteed said he intended to be patient. As originally planned, after a year of study abroad, I went back to the country and tried to forget about Tiara Rose. That''s what I was thinking.


    But there was a turning point for Aquasteed. Yes, it''s the graduation party where the culpability event took place.


    "It was just a shame. I was desperate not to miss this chance."


    "... His Highness Aquasteed"


    "You don''t look good, do you?


    "That''s not true. For me standing there alone, His Highness Aquasteed was very comforting"


    Even if I knew I wasn''t bad, I''d still be nervous, and I had a lot of anxiety somewhere.


    A voice of help from those who admire themselves in such times. How comforting and delightful that was.


    "Your Highness Aquasteed and I said hello once at the night club. So I was also very surprised."


    "Right. I didn''t attend much of the night club, so I left as soon as I could."


    So this is the first time Aquasteed and Tiara Rose are talking decently.


    Even though it was almost close to the first meeting, the atmosphere was very calm and the narrow carriage provided a comfortable space.


    "No anxiety? The young lady over there said a lot to me."


    Tiara Rose thinks to Aquasteed''s words to worry about.


    But whatever Akali said to me that was selfish doesn''t hurt me. Because every word of Tiara Rose was a legitimate claim.


    Besides, neither did the lady, a friend of Tiara Rose, have good feelings for Akali from time to time. From now on, Tiara Rose had the peace of mind of getting along.


    "... right. But I''m not anxious. There will be future discussions, but as far as I''m concerned, I''m just very happy to be able to go home."


    "Right. I was a little surprised that Prince Haltnites even called it exile. Well, if it''s about banishment - I thought I''d grab it."


    Aquasteed laughing like plotting a prank. I can''t believe you''re saying that, Tiara Rose gets stuck and laughs.


    "I meant it. That''s right, Miss Tiara Rose. I''d like to invite you on a date, can you give me some time?


    Mouth the back of Tiara Rose''s hand gently and Aquasteed approaches it. His study abroad lasts a year, and it''s almost over.


    I actually couldn''t afford much time because I had to return home soon.


    Of course, Tiara Rose knows about that. Therefore, I also thought that if Aquasteed really called me, I wouldn''t be able to escape.


    "Yes, I have already graduated from school... and as a bridesmaid, I no longer go under Master Halt Knights"


    "Time is free a lot," he continues, smiling bitterly.


    It is the norm in this world for a fianc¨¦e to be there and a maid to marry after graduation to do a year of bride training. However, Tiara Rose no longer needed it because it would destroy her engagement.


    "Right. Then -... in three days, what do you think?


    "Yes, thank you"


    "Good. Okay, I''ll pick you up that day, so wait."


    Perhaps tomorrow is the meeting between Aquasteed and King Alexander. The next day, Tiara Rose set the scene three days later, anticipating that she would be called to the king.


    Plus, we''ll need time to get ready for each other. Suddenly with the king prince of the neighboring country - then Tiara Rose also gets in trouble.


    And then, questions arise about Tiara Rose.


    - Is there no heroine for a sequel in this world that is a sequel?


    Even the attackers were Aquasteed only. Heroin, etc., is not very common but information is not disclosed. More likely not to be disclosed.


    Because the main character is the target of the attack.


    - Is His Highness Aquasteed really good for me?


    I wonder if Aquasteed, now obsessed with Tiara Rose, would also be obsessed with that girl if the heroine for the sequel came out....... like Halt Knights.


    Such anxiety shook my head and Tiara Rose''s chest swayed anxiously.


    "Miss Tiara Rose?


    "Oh, no...... Well, I still can''t believe His Highness Aquasteed admires me."


    ''Cause there''s got to be heroin in two parts. - I can''t say that. Whether Tiara Rose''s anxiety was conveyed, Aquasteed smiles to reassure her.


    And an outstretched hand touches Tiara Rose''s forehead and shakes her hair.


    "I can''t believe they suspected me that much, it''s terrible. I admire Miss Tiara Rose so much."


    "...... Huh!!"


    Fluffy, Aquasteed''s lips are dropped on Tiara Rose''s forehead. I touched it just a little bit. It accelerated Tiara Rose''s beat more than words.


    "Lovely.... but too bad. Looks like we''ve arrived."


    "Ah..."


    The carriage slowly stopped as Aquasteed''s lips separated.


    Gently looking out the window, it was Tiara Rose''s mansion there. I look at Aquasteed with such astonishment at how much timing I anticipated.


    But he just smiles deeply and says nothing.


    Tiara Rose, blushing, was escorted back to the mansion by Aquasteed.

 6 6. Apology of the King

    Two days after the graduation party, Tiara Rose ascended the castle to see the king with her father, the Marquis of Clementil.


    Tiara Rose, who rarely met with the king, was nervous and stiffened her face in the morning. Tidy your hair without disrespect and the dress chooses a clear calm one.


    Even though he thought it wasn''t his fault, Hartnights, Prince Wang, told him to break his engagement and to deport him from the country. Maybe there was a game correction after the graduation party.


    - As soon as I climbed the castle, what if the knights surrounded me and I stayed in the barn? Maybe I should run away on my own now...?


    More and more thoughts fall in the negative direction, Tiara Rose''s face clouds.


    "What''s the matter, Tiara? Don''t worry, I''ll be there."


    "Father..."


    "I''m fine. You''ve made Tiara feel hard this time. I didn''t know your engagement to His Highness, which I thought would be good, would hurt Tiara the other way around."


    "No. I don''t care"


    Tiara Rose rushes to tell her father, who distorts her face in anger, that she is "okay".


    The more obvious anyone sees it, the Marquis Clamenteal is drowning his daughter. If you are a nobleman in this country, there will be nothing you do not know.


    It''s better to attack my daughter first than to attack my father - it was such a famous story that some aristocrats mentioned such stupid things.


    "Well, fine. It is good to know His Highness''s true nature during the engagement period. You can''t let that girl marry my sweet Tiara."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    It makes my nose rough and I say a lot of good things about the absence of Halt Knights (in person).


    Does my father understand that this is not a mansion, but a royal castle... Tiara Rose was in a hurry, but her mouth didn''t open that it would be useless to tell her father, who is in power in this country.


    With the woman''s prepared tea in her mouth, Tiara Rose waited for the king to visit.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The red and luxurious carpet easily absorbs Tiara Rose''s walking footsteps.


    The long corridor walls are decorated with colorful flowers and with portraits of the kings of history. The current king is Alexander, who is also the father of Haltnites.


    Next to it, I''m sure the portrait of Halt Knights will become decorated.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - But how did you get here?


    Tiara Rose, called to the king, was brought to this place with her father.


    This hallway, adorned with portraits of the kings of history, lies deep within the royal palace, with few people coming. Plus, we need royal permission to get in.


    I have no idea why he''s coming, and Tiara Rose anxiously necks him.


    "After the kings of history, now my portrait is adorned at the very end"


    "Yes, of course I do."


    It is the Marquis of Klementir who slowly strikes at the king with his mouth open. It was there not the face of his father, who had done so earlier, but of his father, who is called one arm of the king - his face as Marquis, who gave him Lapis.


    "Miss Tiara Rose has been here with Halt Nights."


    "Yes. At a young age, only once..."


    - How old would that have been? Long before entering school.


    "Sure, that was... when I and His Highness Haltnights were 10 years old"


    Sixteen-year-old Tiara Rose and Haltnights got engaged 10 years ago when each other was six. I met my parents a few times afterwards, but there was no such thing as two people playing.


    The first time two young people held hands and explored the castle innocently was when they were 10 years old. Lovely memories. At that time, Haltnites brought Tiara Rose to this corridor to show the portraits of the kings.


    He boasted of his father, King Alexander''s portrait, and furthermore boasted with his chest stretched that his portrait would line next to it.


    How did you grow up to be such an idiot when you were cute back then, Master Haltnights? And how easy would Tiara Rose have been if I could tell.


    Did you say that your portrait would be decorated here?


    "Yes. We were very proud to speak of His Majesty."


    "Right."


    The king narrows his eyes and loosens his mouth in nostalgia. I guess he remembers Halt Knights at a young age, and Tiara Rose refrains from saying anything more.


    But it is soon broken by the king. Slowly he turned his body toward Tiara Rose and touched the location of the portrait he had yet to see.


    "But no portrait of Halt Knights will ever be adorned here."


    "Huh...?"


    "Miss Tiara Rose. This time, I did something very sorry for my stupidity. I''m sorry."


    "... Huh!


    I broke my hips deeply, along with words of apology. The king bows his head deeply to Tiara Rose.


    Not decorating the portrait means stripping Haltonites of their right to inherit the throne.


    Breathe in the words, but Tiara Rose sees her father without knowing what to say. but those eyes told the story that they knew everything.


    - Didn''t your father know about today? But not if you care about that now.


    "Your Majesty, look up! There is no need for His Majesty to apologize to me!!"


    of the royal family, and let His Majesty the King bow his head, etc. - even if the king is bad, Tiara Rose is not. Ask him to look up in a hurry, but the king did not look up immediately and slowly waited 10 seconds before returning his gaze.


    "A generous heart, thank you.... I let the details of this case be thoroughly investigated here. Made Miss Tiara Rose feel really hard. I''m sorry."


    "No, I should have talked to Hartnights more."


    "Really, the more we talk, the more Miss Tiara Rose wastes on her son."


    Tiara Rose tells the King that she too has a fault for not trying to walk over to Halt Nights.


    He has the face that his father doesn''t do that on the side, but not if he cares now.


    And think of what to do with the king''s words.


    "Oh, um..."


    "Yeah?"


    "The fact that I don''t decorate His Highness''s portrait here..."


    "True. You don''t deserve Halt Knights here."


    Exactly. So, isn''t the punishment too heavy? Tiara Rose thinks so, but the king''s will seems stiff and he doesn''t snort.


    I certainly do not believe that the opinions of a single nobleman, and of Tiara Rose, a young lady, are sometimes heard by the King.


    But Tiara Rose is the victim of this one. I''m trying to argue that I don''t need that victim, but neither the king nor his father will break his stern face.


    "Me and His Highness Haltnights are only 16. His Royal Highness Haltnights is going to grow."


    "... you''re really sweet. Will you still care about my son when he says he said so much about that at the party? But this is my decision. Never overshadowing."


    "... ok. I will obey His Majesty''s heart."


    Speaking to the King many times is rude. Tiara Rose conveyed her acknowledgement and thanked the king. That''s what I said when I finished this conversation.


    I thought I should ask my father later in the mansion about other decisions. Not all Tiara Rose can monopolize the busy king''s time.


    But with such care, the king goes on to open his mouth.


    "Sometimes Miss Tiara Rose. What do you think of Prince Aquasteed?


    "What!?...... Huh!


    Tiara Rose unwittingly raises her voice at the sudden inquiry and hurries to hold her mouth.


    In addition, Tiara Rose''s cheeks stain slightly on that question as if it were an accident.


    - Why are you talking about that all of a sudden!?


    If you turn your gaze to your father in a hurry, you''ll see him nodding, "That''s right". I wanted you to stop the king, but I realize you can''t.


    "I respect Tiara''s will, but Her Highness Aquasteed will be home soon. Honestly, what does Tiara think?


    "Father...... Your Highness Aquasteed is a waste to me."


    "Hmm. I mean, you don''t hate it"


    Drawing on the words of the modest Tiara Rose, the Marquis of Clementil nods with a good smile. Next door the king also said "ho..." and laughed happily out of his voice.


    - I don''t know, these two look like they''re having so much fun and anxious.


    "The engagement of Miss Tiara Rose and Haltnites has been officially broken"


    "And His Royal Highness Aquasteed has officially signed me up for an engagement"


    "...... Huh!!"


    To unfold too quickly, Tiara Rose unwittingly gets over it. I thought it would take more than a month just to officially destroy my engagement.


    That''s the day. I got the urge to scream how quickly I proceeded with the processing.


    Besides, what his father told him was a formal engagement application. No doubt Aquasteed turned his hand behind him and broke his engagement, but Tiara Rose doesn''t realize that.


    "Honestly, I thought I looked better than Halt Knights. On that occasion of the graduation party, Prince Aquasteed, sheltering Tiara Rose and looking forward... will be a good king"


    "And above all, you like Tiara. If Tiara is good, we''ll keep talking... Well, make up your mind immediately. He won''t say anything harsh, and His Highness Aquasteed will wait for you."


    "...... thank you for your concern. Because if I reply now, His Highness Aquasteed will not be considered good. Again, let me tell you something."


    "Of course," his father nodded to Tiara Rose''s continued words.


    I applied for an engagement, but Aquasteed wants to hear that formal reply directly from Tiara Rose''s mouth.


    We only offer to get engaged first because we don''t have time, but that is sincerity to the Marquis of Clementille. He shows in his actions that he''s never kidding.


    Such an aquasteed attitude was also a good impression on the Marquis of Clamenteal.


    The kings nodded loudly, "Be happy," he said.


    Tiara Rose makes her breasts hot with those words as if she thinks of her own daughter.


    You will surely leave this country, ruled by Alexander, a good king. I haven''t replied to my engagement yet, but Tiara Rose thought so -...

 7 7. Tea Party for Just Two

    The day of the date I was invited by Aquasteed.


    Tiara Rose wakes up early and is carefully supported by a samurai. This dress is not embarrassed to go anywhere, in a moist, calm hue because you haven''t heard where you''re going.


    Hair is half-upped and accompanied by Marine Forest''s famous hair decorations. Even though Tiara Rose tells her that this is just too much, Philine, a samurai, did not listen.


    Since the graduation party, the prince had been treated the same way when he was wiped out in the filine. If someone even uttered the words in the letter Ha in Halt Knights, "Such a man! ? And I get angry.


    Besides, everyone in the mansion seems to think so, and no one is going to stop them. Due to Filine''s activism, not all servants of this mansion have good feelings for Halt Knights.


    "Well, what happens if His Royal Highness Aquasteed needs it..."


    Conversely, it is no exaggeration to say that His Highness Aquasteed is venerated in the Mansion. For Filine, Aquasteed, who helped Tiara Rose at the graduation party, is exactly the prince and hero.


    He''s going to tell Tiara Rose that he''ll be absolutely happier to marry Aquasteed than Halt Knights. That''s enough to have an octopus in your ear already.


    "Well, can''t you wait that long?


    "Philine, you''re the least calm person."


    "Well! That''s not true. Because I, Master Tiara Rose, am important. I''m so glad you saved me from that idiot, Your Highness!


    When Philine comes back to clean up the accessories she didn''t use, she immediately reveals her joy. I can see from the look that I really hated Halt Knights and Acari.


    "Well, let''s not talk about that idiot Your Highness anymore! Something that makes you feel bad."


    ¡­¡­


    I seem to have completely forgotten about that, even though I say it was Filine who put it up for discussion.


    I admire my husband, Tiara Rose, like my sister, and I don''t think I should miss this marriage as a filine who wishes me happiness.


    It makes me happiest to marry under a man I like. Philine thinks so. Of course, it''s very difficult to be born into a nobleman...


    From Filine''s eyes, it was clear that Tiara Rose had not favored Halt Knights.


    I react differently in front of Aquasteed than I did in Halt Nights. Make your face red and laugh cutely.


    It was obvious to everyone that Tiara Rose might not be aware of it, but she had a preference.


    Plus, Tiara Rose, back from the graduation party, blushed...... for a while.


    Filine was convinced at the time that she must be thinking about Aquasteed.


    "Ah! I see His Highness Aquasteed is here, Dear Tiara Rose"


    Find the carriage through the window and Filine will be happy to report.


    We can''t keep Aquasteed, Prince Wang, waiting, so Tiara Rose also immediately prepared to head downstairs to greet him.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, if you''re not coming home - for God''s sake, I''ll help you make an alibi!


    "What are you talking about already, Philine! I''ll be right back!!"


    Dropped off by Filine, who seemed to have fun with her hands on her mouth, Tiara Rose went out with Aquasteed.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Wow......! Wow beautiful, Your Highness Aquasteed"


    Aquasteed escorted me, and the end I headed by carriage was a flower garden on a slightly higher hill in the suburbs. The colorfully blooming flowers calmed Tiara Rose''s heart.


    "I''m glad you liked it"


    "Thank you"


    - I didn''t know there was such a nice place. It looks like a good date spot, even though it seems good to be out in the game.


    While I thought it was a waste of what I didn''t know, I was honestly delighted to see it with Aquasteed for the first time though.


    "I''ll make you some tea, so let''s get some rest. You must be tired ''cause you were in the carriage, right?


    "Thank you for your concern"


    Under a large tree, it enters Tiara Rose''s eyes that the rug is laid and ready for tea.


    Tiara Rose I didn''t realize at all, but the royal maid of honor is not like the noble maid of honor. Get everything in order without my husband noticing.


    A samurai or squire refrained from under a carriage parked away. And I guess I have a knight to escort. I don''t expect to be escorted so gracefully, Tiara Rose''s breasts squeal.


    In retrospect, I never had a date like this with Halt Knights.


    "Your hand, Miss Tiara Rose."


    "His Highness Aquasteed...... Thank you."


    I was offered a hand, so Tiara Rose gently lays her own hand over there. I was led straight to the rug and slowly sat there.


    The fluffy grass was growing on the ground, making it very comfortable without being crunchy.


    "Isn''t it cold?


    "Yes. It''s okay. The wind is pleasant and warm."


    "That''s good. Today, I prepared some tea that I like. I hope Miss Tiara Rose likes it too..."


    Aquasteed takes the teapot and pours it into the cup.


    Tiara Rose was very surprised because Prince Wang didn''t think he could have tea himself. But at the same time, he was pleasantly impressed.


    For Tiara Rose, who has memories of her previous life, her official duties, anyway - would be very breathless if she stayed steady to the privacy of her personal life. I thought in the corner of my heart that I just didn''t like that.


    Aquasteed, who laughs happily and talks, had a different vibe than he had at the graduation party. I guess we can split public affairs and private life tightly.


    "I recommend milk, but Miss Tiara Rose prefers milk or lemon?


    "Okay, give me the milk. Milk is often added in winter and spring."


    "Then it''s the same. Me, too."


    Add milk to clear tea and Aquasteed serves it to Tiara Rose.


    If you take it in your hand, it smells very good and tickles Tiara Rose''s nose. One bite only, I breathed a ho.


    "Oh, I was"


    "What''s up?


    Even to the sudden voice of Tiara Rose, Aquasteed smiles gently.


    I don''t think anyone could have spoiled me so much but my father for that sweet look everywhere.


    Tiara Rose took the pretty wrapped wrapped wrapper out of the basket she brought.


    It''ll fit perfectly in both hands of Tiara Rose. Look at that, what''s that? And, Aquasteed asks with his eyes. The look on his face seemed to say he hadn''t expected it... Tiara Rose smiled wondering if it had come as a surprise.


    "It''s a cookie. I don''t know if it fits His Highness Aquasteed''s mouth because it''s what I baked..."


    "Miss Tiara Rose? Cookies for me, are you? I''m so glad."


    If I gave it away gently, Aquasteed received it as a "good smell".


    Remembering the previous life, Tiara Rose also remembered various sweet recipes. I liked to play maiden games while eating sweet sweets, so making them is also a treat.


    If it''s true, I wanted to bake the cake... but I didn''t know what I was going to do today, so I made a cookie that I could take home easily.


    Two types: simple cookies and chocolate-made cookies. Both are cookies that Tiara Rose was a favorite in her previous life.


    "... delicious. I didn''t know they were going to make such delicious treats"


    A bite of aquasteed opens my eyes to surprise. And the fact that it was made for me doubled or tripled the deliciousness.


    My darling, cookies made for me. Above all, it''s a treat for Aquasteed.


    I took out another cookie and now Aquasteed takes it to the mouth of Tiara Rose.


    "... Huh!


    "Look, uh?


    - Nah, what! His Highness Aquasteed was like this!?


    Tiara Rose saw the cookies appreciated in her mouth, but couldn''t open her mouth.


    Of course I don''t have the experience of being ahem or anything from the opposite sex, and I don''t know what to look like and eat. But isn''t it disrespectful not to eat what Aquasteed, Prince Wang, has offered you? And my head gets confused when I go around.


    "Here."


    "Ugh..."


    I was so ashamed to eat while Aquasteed stared at me, but I was offered... Tiara Rose opened her mouth small with her eyes closed all the time.


    Aquasteed chuckles at its appearance like a small animal. Keep the cookies in Tiara Rose''s mouth and look satisfied eating them shy.


    "... n"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Aquasteed softens his chest to a tiara rose that eats hard and leaks exhale.


    The truth is that Aquasteed was trying to make Tiara Rose feel conscious from time to time. But I guess this is very good because I can''t help but love Tiara Rose.


    But the truth is that Tiara Rose''s heart is much, much more... sometimes than Aquasteed''s.


    "He''s cute to eat, too. Hey, Miss Tiara Rose - if you don''t mind..."


    "... Huh?


    "Tiara and may I call you?


    "... Yes. Of course, Your Highness Aquasteed."


    "Glad to hear it. Tiara, call me Aqua, too?


    Whispered his name in his ear, Tiara Rose learns that being called for the first time makes his chest squeal.


    How can it be so occasional when Aquasteed calls me by my name, even though I don''t feel anything when Halt Knights calls me "Tiara"?


    To Aquasteed, who smiles when he calls himself by his nickname, but that''s too rude... Tiara Rose thinks so, but I thought I''d try to be a little brave.


    He''s shown so much favor for Tiara Rose.


    And Kun, I gave up calming my heart like it wasn''t mine anymore and looked up at the aquasteed sitting next to me.


    "Ah, Dear Aqua..............."


    ¡­¡­ - What should I do? I''m so happy for you, Tiara!! "


    "Yikes!


    Tiara Rose has never called a man by his nickname.


    Shivering with a small voice but calling his name, he was embraced by Aquasteed, who smiled happier than ever before.


    If my body gets so tight, my heart will be torn apart from time to time. Tiara Rose trying to push me back with that in mind - but I realize there is.


    - Master Aqua is also very... occasional.


    I''m not the only one who''s nervous. If you think so, Tiara Rose''s heart lightens like a feather.


    Reach out to Nanny and Aquasteed''s back.... but I still get embarrassed and solve it as soon as I can. "Too bad," but a voice that sounds terribly happy.


    "Ya, I knew I was embarrassed..."


    "- Yeah. You just need to slow down, get used to it"


    With her head gently stroked, Tiara Rose decided to ask her father to reply to her engagement.

 8 8. Halt Knights Anxiety and Growth

    Slowly walking down the lavishly decorated hallway, Haltnights reached the front of the guest room.


    This is where guests are welcomed in the castle, but now Akali, the heroine, is under house arrest. At the entrance stands one knight, including the implications of watching.


    "... open it"


    "Your Majesty told me not to let you through."


    Haltnights commands the knight, but it was already after he was given a stricter circular than the king. Serious knights don''t even snort at the words of Haltnites, the prince.


    But I really wanted to talk to Akali. Halt Knights hasn''t had a conversation with Akali since the graduation party.


    In addition, in this state of house arrest...... I was also worried about the mental state of the acari.


    "I won''t stay long. We just need to see how it goes."


    "But..."


    Speaking of which it is the king''s order, if it is the usual Haltonites, I will obey it. At present, it is Alexander, the King, who leads the Knights, not Halt Knights.


    I understand that well, and I don''t mean to bend the orders of the Knights.


    But I couldn''t even give it up to Halt Knights this time.


    "Please. I think maybe..."


    "Your Highness?"


    "... no. I may have made a mistake. I think we need to have a conversation with Akali to confirm that."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The knight opens his eyes to surprise when he hears the serious words of Halt Knights.


    I was putting it in a woman named Acari, and I became an irresistible fool. And because I was hearing rumors like that. The knight, too, at first thought it was such an idiot, a lie.


    But Philine, the maid of the Duke of Clamenteal, who came to the castle at his mercy, said, "My Lady Tiara Rose was very hurt by His Highness the Haltnights¡­". Yes, I cried sadly.


    The knights stand at the gates of the castle in turn, so they are familiar with Philinee, who comes to the castle for his managerial duties. Valued her husband, the bright and adorable Filine was popular with knights.


    "I am very glad that His Highness will think so."


    "Really, I just need a little bit"


    Again, Halt Knights asking for a little.


    It is not the first thing he asks of a knight who is royal. Can I really let Akali see him, who hurt Tiara Rose, who is also popular with the people?


    "¡­ for 10 minutes. That''s all I close my eyes to."


    "Helpful"


    Hurting a woman is against chivalry. But even if Halt Knights is the prince of this country. From now on, it is possible to become the Lord of the Knights.


    - Your Highness may be about to grow.


    Then, as an adult, you may also need to push your back. The more painfully I know how Filine feels, the more a knight thinks people fail and grow.


    But of course, I won''t forget to leave the door slightly open to see what''s going on inside.


    Because it''s not good for a man or woman before marriage to be alone in public, and if anything happens, it''s the responsibility of the knight who was guarding the door.


    But soon - I regretted letting him in the room.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Dear Halt Knights!!"


    "Acari......"


    Halt Knights hurries into the guest room to effectively use the allowable time of only 10 minutes.


    There was only one acari there, sitting in a chair and relaxing reading a book.


    "I missed you, Master Haltnights! I thought they wouldn''t let me out of the room and I''d die in my spare time with nothing to do!!"


    Acari, who welcomed Haltnights with a smile, throws the book out and rushes over.


    Akali, who said he was bored, didn''t do anything to think about what happened at the graduation party.


    Halt Knights said he couldn''t even sleep at night after the graduation party thinking about all sorts of things......


    "But I didn''t think Master Aquasteed would say that to Master Tiara. Dear Aquasteed, I hope Tiara doesn''t fool you...... What happened to you?


    "... my father told me that my engagement with Tiara had been dissolved. I haven''t heard anything about Prince Aquasteed, so I don''t think he''s engaged."


    "Really?"


    Acari with an obviously relieved face.


    Is the relief due to the fact that Tiara Rose''s engagement with Halt Knights was successfully broken, or - is it due to the fact that Aquasteed and Tiara Rose''s engagement is not?


    To Halt Knights, I didn''t know.


    Until now, Akali admired herself as "Master Halt Knights". The guys around me, Akali''s brother-in-law and school healer, and the Knights platoon leader... I was close to various people, but didn''t care that far.


    Of course, that''s because he was the target of the attack, but Halt Knights doesn''t know that fact.


    "That development surprised me just because how much Master Haltnights broke off his engagement. I''m sure we''ve been intimate for a long time!


    I tried to watch out for the outrageous acari, but Haltnights decided that time was limited.


    Confirm what you need first now.


    "... Acari. Is everything Tiara said then true?


    "What -? What you were saying, is that it?


    Acari tilts his neck and says, "I remember being told tough and it was hard..."


    That doesn''t mean I didn''t like what Tiara Rose said, I didn''t like what she said or what she was cautioned about.


    "Right."


    "But I had Halt Knights... It was very, very comforting."


    Acari, laughing like lights, hugged Haltnights all the time. But Haltnights let the acari go to pay for it by hand.


    "Dear Halt Knights...?


    If always, Hartnights is adorable with a hug of clams and a stroke on his head from himself. But I can''t even afford that right now.


    Halt Knights did his best to think about himself.


    "Something troubling you? If it''s okay with me, I''ll talk to you."


    "Trouble?"


    "That''s right. Could it be that Master Tiara told you something? - I can''t believe Miss Villain Warrant is still involved after this edition."


    Halt Knights laughs bitterly at the clams it takes to decide that Tiara Rose is absolutely bad. The last word was too small to reach Haltnites'' ears, but I''m convinced it would be one that worries me.


    - Did Akali say something terrible to Tiara Rose? Or is it a rebellion to not fit your personality when you get here? I''ve heard that once a woman gets screwed, it''s a hassle.


    "Since then, I haven''t seen Tiara. I''ve been thinking about the graduation party all by myself."


    "About the graduation party? Sure, I don''t like being stuck here like this either. I want to go to Master Halt Knights! When can I go to Master Halt Knights?


    "... for a while yet, it will be tough. Makes the acari feel hard too, but wait a little longer."


    "Really...... But hurry up, will you?


    Akali complains to Halt Knights that she doesn''t like being alone in this room anymore.


    I''m wondering, Halt Knights, but I''ve always taken care of the acari. Of course I want to let you out.


    But it''s not something that can be done at Halt Knights'' discretion. You have to talk to the king and decide what''s coming or you can''t move.


    "Tonight - I''ll talk to your father. Also, I''ll tell you the results, so just be a little more patient."


    "... ok. I''m expecting you, Master Haltnights. And don''t tell me about Master Aquasteed either! I want to help Tiara before she gets hurt like I did."


    "Acari......"


    There is no way that Aquasteed, the king and prince of the great kingdom, can be hurt by one woman. I think so, Halt Knights, but I tell myself that Akali is purely worried.


    I didn''t really like being given the names of other men in front of me, but I don''t even get up to Halt Nights to pay attention to that.


    - Am I tired?


    Next to Sighing Halt Knights, he talks about how Akali is worried about Aquasteed.


    More than that, I wanted you to think hard about this one. More, thinking about ourselves, Haltnights makes me want to scream.


    No more talking... maybe not mentally good right now. I think so, but Haltnights can''t let go of the clams he talks to in loneliness.


    What can I do? Yes, the voice of salvation appeared when I bit my lips off.


    "Your Highness, Haltnights, it''s 10 minutes."


    "Huh?"


    "Ah, ah. I''m sorry I said I couldn''t. Akali, it''s time for me to go. I''ll inconvenience you, but I need you to stay in this room a little longer. Tell the samurai if you need anything."


    To the voice of the knight, the acari leaks dissatisfaction. I swell my cheeks and say, "Don''t go home yet".


    Unlike Halt Knights, which only laughs bitterly, the knight pulls the acari off Halt Knights "because it is an order". You were just surprised, Akali inadvertently lagged behind.


    "His Royal Highness Haltnights"


    "I know.... I''ll be back."


    "Huh...? Wait, Master Halt Knights!!"


    Hartnights, nodding at the knight''s words, leaves the room immediately.


    The knight controls the acari that tried to stop it and refuses to leave the room. I didn''t know she was such a woman, and the knight watched Halt Knights walk away with slack.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The brightly colored carpet adds majesty to having a husband. In the glass placed on the desk, a domestic alcoholic beverage made luxuriously from fruit juice.


    And sitting in a chair are Alexander, the king of this country, and his son, the Prince Haltnights.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There was a heavy silence between them when they said they were parents and children.


    Now it''s the night after the graduation party, and Alexander and Aquasteed''s talks should already be over during the day.


    That''s why Haltnights is more nervous than usual. What the hell can I tell you from my own father - ¡­.


    "Halt Knights. I heard you went to Miss Acari''s today, right?


    "... Huh! Yes, I apologize for my unsolicited behavior."


    Serious knights kept a good report when they said they would close their eyes. If that''s the case, Haltnights sighs that what he talks about is also missing.


    Honestly apologize, but complain that it was necessary.


    "So there''s something warm to talk about and get something?


    "I should have listened to Tiara more. Without listening to anything, I only swallowed the word of the acari"


    Hold hands tight, Halt Knights face seems to distort painfully.


    But which side should I lower and apologize for now? Before that, my father, the Marquis of Clementil, refused me, and I couldn''t even see him.


    "You and Miss Tiara Rose got engaged and tied up at an early age. But your actions were not good as royalty, as man."


    "... Yes. Me, too, no - me, too, I thought. I met with Akali today and thought about the two of them a lot. Akali likes me, but Tiara Rose..."


    Akali likes Halt Knights. This is a rare fact.


    - So, what about Tiara Rose?


    To calm his breathing, Haltnights takes a deep breath once.


    And slowly, say what you felt for yourself.


    "Tiara Rose looked to this country - the" Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli ". position as a nobleman or as a civilian. Be firm and proud. ¡­ I think he understood the future well."


    "... right. Miss Tiara Rose firmly understands that she is the Marquis of Lapis. So he also took a good look at Halt Knights. Didn''t you?"


    "No, you must...... I was so cherished by Tiara."


    - Your Highness Haltnights, you must not run away and trouble teachers during study time!


    - Everyone trembles at first.... Me too, I''m trembling. But we''re two. We''re not alone, so let''s stick together, shall we?


    - More breasts, please! You must be the King Prince of this country!!


    - Please master at least three languages. Other than that, I will follow you, too.


    - It is His Majesty''s orders that the knight take precedence. Don''t let His Highness twist that with his own personal greed!


    What comes to mind are memories of my childhood.


    Sure, Tiara Rose''s tone was tight, but that was all a caveat because I was thinking of Halt Knights.


    "Yet - I hurt Tiara without believing"


    "If you found that out, it would mean you''ve grown up, too. But this time it''s never too light."


    "... Yes"


    Halt Knights, nodding with serious eyes, was already ready to accept everything. And I had a great deal of anticipation of what would be imposed on me.


    I''m glad my own son grew up here, but I was wondering why he didn''t grow up before he broke his engagement with Tiara Rose... Alexander sighed in his heart.

 9 9. Engagement with Aquasteed

    The night Tiara Rose and Aquasteed went out on a date......


    In a softly restless manner, Tiara Rose awaited the return of her father, the Marquis of Clementil.


    Of course, to get you engaged to Aquasteed. There are plenty of anxiety elements such as a heroine acari and Halt Knights, who was my fianc¨¦e.


    So if you say you''re not anxious, you''re lying. But Tiara Rose wanted to believe Aquasteed''s words.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, Was today''s date that much fun?


    "Philine! ''Cause it was the first time I''d ever been out like that with a guy"


    Phylline teases Tiara Rose, who puts her hands on her mouth all the time and blushes in embarrassment.


    There''s no way I can say that Aquasteed "ahem" the cookies I took, and Tiara Rose flies in her heart to tell her father to come home early.


    - Does that mean you''re wearing that hair decoration, can I have a little expectation?


    During the farewell greeting, the voice whispered by Aquasteed can''t get out of my ear. The sweet, low voice made Aquasteed aware to remain at the core of Tiara Rose.


    The hair decorations used by Tiara Rose are a specialty of Aquasteed''s country. It was Philine, the samurai, who prepared it, but this is how she sends her own ale.


    It was a samurai''s concern that I would be glad to have both thoughts soon.


    "So, how was it actually?


    "Huh?"


    "Dear Tiara Rose, I wonder if they''ve spoken enough..."


    "Hey, come on! I didn''t do that!!"


    And listen to what Filine has always cared about, but Tiara Rose turns bright red and denies it. Even if they just fed me cookies, I had a hard time with my heart.


    Tiara Rose waves her face, saying that it is very impossible to do that.


    "Well, too bad. But His Royal Highness Aquasteed takes great care of Master Tiara Rose, doesn''t he? I''m relieved."


    "Filine...... Well, Aqua is so sweet, and she cares so much about me."


    I could even be certain somewhere that Tiara Rose would never do anything she didn''t like.


    Aquasteed''s eyes always stared about Tiara Rose herself. That wasn''t like worrying about identity or anything, it was kind.


    Feeling so relieved by the way he looked, Filine nodded and convinced one person, "Ah".


    "Filine?"


    "Somehow more than usual, because Master Tiara Rose is softening up. I thought it was still the end of the date - engagement, right?


    "...... Huh!!"


    Tiara Rose''s shoulders shake with prickliness to the word engagement.


    Exactly the most correct answer, answered with my body. I''ve been a Tiara Rose maid for a long time. For Philinee, this is the immediate prospect.


    Shy, but seeing Tiara Rose nodding small, Filine smiles happily. I saw my husband hurt by Halt Knights, but he seemed to be happy, and I was happier than that.


    "Then you will wait as you twitch your husband''s return"


    "Oh, already! You noticed."


    "Yes.... well, looks like your husband is home"


    I peered gently out the window and saw the carriage. The carriage containing the family crest of the Marquis and the Lapis is undoubtedly ridden by the Marquis of Kramentile.


    Sometimes, but soon, Tiara Rose picks up her father to the front door.


    Classy, but early enough. Hurry down the long corridor and gracefully descend the stairs.


    At the point of getting off, the front door opens and I can see the face of the Marquis Clamenteal. Finally returning, Tiara Rose hurried to say, "Father!" Raise your voice.


    "I''m home, Tiara. What''s the matter, don''t be so shy?"


    "Ha, ha, don''t say that!


    Tiara Rose stands sober, as if she was in a hurry.


    But a lie like that doesn''t make sense to his father, the Marquis Clamentile. On her cheek, which is slightly red, she sees her daughter twitching somewhere, and she doesn''t have a father or anything she doesn''t know.


    ¡­ and. Marquis Clamenteal, who must not drown his daughter, thinks.


    And sometimes today was my date with Aquasteed, and I also guess what my daughter wants to say.


    I sincerely think it''s something I miss, but I''m really very happy.


    "I know. You must be talking about His Royal Highness Aquasteed.


    "Father......!


    "As much as I know about my daughter, I know.... Take it, okay?


    "... Yes. Please, Father."


    Tiara Rose lays down her face as she lights up, but smiles happily.


    I miss my daughter being married to another country, but I''m more than happy to laugh at her. That''s what I thought, and the Marquis Clamentir nodded.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "I did irrevocably..."


    When I was up late at night, it was Halt Nights who was spending sleepless nights in my bedroom. My punishment is also well heard by my father, Alexander the King.


    I also want Tiara Rose to be happy, of course.


    Though...


    "... tiara"


    What leaks from the pounding and haltnights mouth is the name of Tiara Rose, not the acari.


    Of all the turns around, I try to sleep somehow, but all I see in my closed eyes is Tiara Rose''s face. Halt Knights shakes his face to shake it off, but nothing will come of it.


    - You''re supposed to like the acari thing, but I can''t get Tiara''s face out of my head.


    ".................. tiara"


    Again, call her by her name.


    Then he closes his eyes all the time and thinks of Tiara Rose''s face. Haltnights recalls that there were times when we met, but nothing like her fianc¨¦e.


    At best, would it have been about an escort at a night club?


    - I had to see more about Tiara.


    It''s too late for Halt Knights to regret it now, but still, it boils down to wanting to get angry.


    Think about Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, worried about her again. Not at all, I can''t get it out of my head.


    That''s when the con-con and knock sounds.


    When I say it''s time to sleep, I reply even though I wonder what the hell it is.


    A knight is waiting in front of the room. That''s why they put it through, so it must be urgent.


    And Haltnights thought, it was the usual woman who put her face on.


    "Good morning. Your Highness, Haltnights, may I assist you in the morning."


    "Hey, morning...... Huh!?"


    Halt Knights looks out the window stunned by the words he is told as usual. It was a glorious beautiful day and the morning sun was very eye-catching.


    I can''t believe the night was dawning in my head.


    "What''s wrong?


    "... no, please"


    Tell the lady officer who makes her wonder that she has no problem, Haltnights begins her schedule today.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    In a leisurely morning time, Tiara Rose climbed the castle with her samurai Filine.


    The reason is to meet Aquasteed, who is staying at the castle.


    Dye your cheeks a little and wrap yourself in a light water coloured dress. Filine coordinated Aquasteed''s hair because it was blue.


    "But could it have been okay to suddenly come..."


    "It''s okay. My husband tells me."


    This will be my first visit since I informed her of my engagement.


    It was sudden, but in the morning, I told the Marquis of Clementil to climb the castle. If Aquasteed seemed busy, I was thinking of leaving without seeing him.


    "If you can''t, there will be a user soon. The lack of it means there''s no problem."


    "... right? But you''re so nervous."


    Tiara Rose was taken to the reception room dedicated to Aquasteed in the castle. A woman was currently in the process of making a confirmation to Aquasteed.


    I don''t know if I can see you. This situation makes Tiara Rose''s chest squeal.


    After about 10 minutes of waiting, a young man named Aquasteed''s squire arrived.


    In a polite courtesy, Tiara Rose also returns the lady''s gratitude.


    "Master Aquasteed will be here soon. We have a location available, may I ask you to move?


    "Yes."


    First thing in the morning, Aquasteed knew Tiara Rose was going to climb the castle and was ready to entertain herself.


    A delicious treat and tea are prepared in the Rose Garden, which Tiara Rose would prefer.


    "I am near Master Aquasteed. If you need anything, tell me what it is."


    "Thank you. I''m sorry I said I couldn''t do it today."


    "No, don''t be apologetic or anything. Mr. Aquasteed was very pleased."


    That being said, Elliot smiled, near Aquasteed''s side.


    Aquasteed, who came to this country as an international student, is the only one who brings his proximity. The other women were taken care of by King Alexander so that Aquasteed could live without inconvenience.


    If Tiara Rose were to marry Aquasteed like this, she would have many opportunities to talk to Elliot. At ease with him, who seems to be a good man, Tiara Rose follows Elliot in walking.


    "Lapis Lazuli is a very good country. And the ornaments are so beautiful."


    Elliot talks to Tiara Rose as she walks down the hallway. Don''t be nervous, it''s his concern.


    Plus Tiara Rose smiles and says something to her mouth about Marine Forest, Aquasteed''s homeland.


    "A good craftsman is working hard for me. Conversely, in Marine Forest, women admire many marine gems, such as natural corals and pearls."


    "Thank you. Aquasteed will be delighted."


    A little air flows, and a voice echoes down the hallway calling Tiara Rose where both Tiara Rose and Elliot have the perception that they are good people.


    That was from behind, if the three of them turned around at the same time - Halt Knights stood.


    "... Your Highness Haltnights!


    "Tiara, why are you here...?


    It was Filine who responded most to Haltnights'' face, as if she were dreaming.


    Step forward in such a way as to shelter your husband. Tiara Rose was bewildered when Philine took refuge in her, but she didn''t pay attention because it was also true that she was pushed to break her engagement.


    Elliot, a squire of Aquasteed, took the prince, Haltnights, to give a bow of grace and refrain behind him.


    "... no. You''ve come to see Prince Aquasteed."


    "Yes..."


    Halt Knights turns his gaze to Elliot and forces himself to convince himself that it will be. I held my fist a long time and distorted my face.


    It didn''t take long for Tiara Rose and Filine to realize that something was wrong, apparently.


    Seeing Halt Knights say something, Filine moves just a little and stands next to Tiara Rose. But I never tried to leave.


    I can''t wait for something to happen again. Even if I did something against Haltnites'' will, and that was an act of disrespect, I couldn''t give it up.


    You know that or not, Halt Knights says nothing.


    "Tiara"


    "Yes."


    "At the graduation party, I''m sorry......!


    !!


    Bullshit, I looked at Halt Knights, who bowed his head in momentum, and I opened my eyes to Tiara Rose, Philine, and even Elliot.


    Who would have guessed, for example, that this would be such a development? The three of us who have solidified into that behavior, but it was Tiara Rose who made the exact move.


    "Your Highness Haltnights, please raise your face! I don''t care..."


    "... tiara"


    "The royal family must not bow their heads easily."


    "... Tiara always had a lot of attention."


    Halt Knights stares at Tiara Rose with her eyes narrowed to nostalgia. Seeing that, reassured Tiara Rose also smiled.


    - Good. My lord Haltnights, I could think for myself. Well, I think it''s because His Majesty snugly squeezed me...


    While Tiara Rose grinned inside, she was honestly pleased that her favorite character in her previous life held on.


    So I guess I was off guard. I didn''t realize Haltnites'' hand was stretched out to stroke Tiara Rose''s head.


    Haltnights, as if to see his beloved princess, softly tried to touch Tiara Rose. Philine notices, but couldn''t react right away because she wasn''t expecting anything other than an attack.


    - Tiara.


    "...... Huh!!"


    Unlike usual, Haltonites voice with a little sweetness.


    Tiara Rose shakes her body in awe of sudden action, but shelters her head with her hands as a sign of intent not to.


    So much, I wondered if there was anything disgusting about the emotions directed at me... my body trembled.


    But I don''t know what to do, and all I can do is say "please stop". I close my eyes with disgust - but nothing touched my head.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I thought I could stroke you.


    I thought so and opened my fearful eyes, and a low, cold voice entered Tiara Rose''s ear.


    "Hey, Prince Haltnites. - To my precious fianc¨¦e, what are you trying to do?


    Paying Halt Knights'' hand, Aquasteed pulled Tiara Rose''s hips toward her chest.


    Those eyes are telling me not to give it to Halt Knights.


    "... Huh! Oh, Master Aqua!


    "Are you okay? Sorry I''m late, Tiara"


    Hugging her cuddle, Aquasteed gently mouthed Tiara Rose''s forehead. "I picked you up," he said, smiling with a face like he''d never shown anyone before.

 10 10. Creating a Basement to Happiness

    Aquasteed came to the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli to study abroad about a year ago.


    In fact, I had been crossing countries for several years in the name of for language. Finally, he studied for a year at the Royal Lapis Lazuli School.


    But the class wasn''t very meaningful to Aquasteed, who had learned a lot from day to day. Then at least I read a book in the library that I don''t have in my own country...... I had such a day.


    In a quiet library, only the turning sound of the book can be heard.


    "... hmm?


    Aquasteed''s fixed position is in the back seat of the library - at the window.


    Looking out, I got a fluffy honey pink hair in my sight. That''s for sure, I immediately recall that she''s a lady from the Marquis Clamentile family who gave her Lapis.


    Apparently, I find myself making tea in the shade of a tree, and as is often the case, I''m not that conscious.


    - A few days later, until.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Are you coming again?"


    "Sounds like it."


    It is Elliot the squire who replies to Aquasteed''s whining.


    Aquasteed that turns the book as usual with the constant position. And what I saw out the window was still Tiara Rose with her honey pink fluffy hair.


    It''s unusual for a lady to read a book here. That''s what I thought, and I accidentally made an observation.


    There is only one Tiara Rose herself and one samurai.


    He laid a rug in the shade of a tree, enjoying tea and sweets while reading.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Especially Aquasteed, who didn''t care that much, but she was starting to get into view reading almost every day.


    Sometimes I was reading it seriously, and sometimes I was reading it like it was illuminated. It goes without saying how long I''ve been following that figure with my eyes.


    "Dear Aquasteed,"


    "Don''t think stupid. She''s Prince Haltnites'' fianc¨¦e."


    "I know that..."


    Eliot, the squire, thinks he''s teething at Aquasteed, who''s always just watching Tiara Rose.


    Elliot, who usually only saw Aquasteed beautifully adorned with a lady who approached him, looked painful.


    I wish my husband''s love could come true. But there''s nothing you can do. That was how it was again.


    "... ah!


    "Rain."


    If I watched Tiara Rose while reading today, it started raining all over again. If Elliot speaks up unexpectedly, Aquasteed will look up as well.


    - You looked like you were having fun reading, but this ruins it.


    If Aquasteed looked up into the sky slightly, the clouds would have covered the sun. It''s not like getting down that long.


    That''s what Aquasteed thinks. He moves his hand forward.


    "Dear Aquasteed!


    "As it is, the book gets wet. Just a little bit, that''s fine."


    Gather your own magic and Aquasteed will see the sky again.


    If you cast a small spell in your mouth, it will rain only around Tiara Rose to avoid it. Instead of rain, a small rainbow rested directly on Tiara Rose, making it a very fantastic view.


    In this world, there is something called magic.


    Aquasteed, the king and prince of the great kingdom, has immense magic within him. In addition, he often acts as a magic swordsman because he is fond of swords.


    But Aquasteed prefers the sword one way or the other, and doesn''t use much magic. That''s how he used it for her, just once he exchanged greetings at a night club, just watching her through a window.


    "... even though I want you to be bound"


    Pompous, Elliot''s voice leaks.


    "Yeah?"


    But Aquasteed misses it because he was watching Tiara Rose rejoicing in the rainbow.


    Fianc¨¦e of Haltnites, the king prince of the Lapis Lazuli kingdom. How could Elliot want to cry when fate was such a cruel thing to do?


    Everyone wishes their husband happiness. I wish this thought would come true. Look outside with a rainbow, I think Elliot has one.


    That must have been the beginning of Aquasteed''s love.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Dear Aquasteed, are you ready for your letter?


    "Ah. Fly this to Your Majesty."


    "Okay."


    A year after Aquasteed first saw Tiara Rose. The time has come for me to finish my studies abroad.


    And it coincided with the graduation of Tiara Rose, Halt Knights, including Aquasteed. From now on, these two are going into a full year of marriage preparation.


    That''s what everyone thought. - Until I saw that graduation party.


    "Wingspan, fly through the clouds!


    Elliot, who receives a letter from Aquasteed, casts the magic of change on the letter.


    The letter then turned into a bird mould, winged wide through the window into the sky. This magic is very difficult and treasured.


    Well, it''s not something the squire can use, because he''s an Aquasteed squire. Elliot learned magic desperately.


    "Now the country won''t have a problem"


    "Yes."


    Today, on the day of the graduation party - it''s late at night.


    Aquasteed proposed to Tiara Rose and was allowed an escort home. Neither Aquasteed nor Elliot will miss this opportunity.


    Upon returning home, Aquasteed immediately wrote a letter to his country and put forward a calculation for the future.


    That you proposed to Tiara Rose. Arrange for the castle to be equipped with all the rooms and things around you.


    "If you think you''ve gone in a bit of a good direction - that''s just fast, Dear Aquasteed. It sounds like a fool I''ve been worried about."


    "... right. I''m surprised myself."


    - But it''s also true that I thought this was the only place.


    Tiara Rose, who was shaking a little. And before that, Halt Knights with a stared face.


    How can you let a woman of your choice stand alone in a place like this? Aquasteed smiled as soon as she took the hand and said it was all right.


    An application form for engagement was prepared during the day and delivered to the Marquis of Clementil at first light the following morning.


    Of course, there''s not enough time to go home, but more than that, Aquasteed wanted Tiara Rose back to herself.


    And the wish came true, and a reply of acceptance was received from the Marquis of Cramenthir the morning after the date.


    I was happy with that reply and wanted to go see him soon, Aquasteed, but that ends in concern. Because the Marquis of Clamenteal told me that Tiara Rose was coming.


    They say they''re sorry for the sudden visit, but that''s not true at all. Because it''s nothing but welcome.


    "Thank you, Marquis Clamenteal. I''m so glad to see Miss Tiara Rose."


    "... I''m glad you said that, too"


    "Thanks for talking about the engagement, too. We''re all set, so don''t worry about anything."


    "Was it"


    Marquis Clamenthir nodded at Aquasteed''s words, which he would naturally say.


    But I honestly didn''t think we were making arrangements so far. In this minute, Marine Forest, as well as its rooting for King Alexander, will be over.


    Why is my daughter so loved by the king prince of the great kingdom? That''s what I doubt, but the Marquis of Clementil accepted it as a matter of course because he was drowning his daughter.


    It''s such an adorable tiara rose. I will only let my wife come to a firm man who loves me. It is unfortunate about Haltonites, but it was also a shame for the Marquis of Clementille.


    "Now, if you''ll excuse me for preparing to welcome Miss Tiara Rose,"


    "Welcome and thank you for your concern. My daughter will be happy."


    After a brief greeting, Aquasteed breaks up with the Marquis of Kramentile to get ready.


    Nevertheless, Aquasteed only gives instructions and places them. In the meantime, I have to get the job done. In order to have some leisure time with Tiara Rose, there are few tasks that need to be completed.


    I gave Elliot the basic instructions and headed right to the office.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Then a few hours later, a woman announces the ascent of Tiara Rose.


    Aquasteed asked Elliott to guide Tiara Rose because several documents remained. Of course, I''m going to finish it right away and head over.


    What we have is a rose garden in a small garden.


    I thought the garden with its yellow and pink roses would look great on Tiara Rose.


    But I didn''t see Tiara Rose when Aquasteed went to Rose Garden. The fact that I can''t even see Elliot shows that he''s still on the move.


    - Still, you''re taking too long.


    The Rose Garden is definitely closer to the reception room where Tiara Rose waited than Aquasteed''s office. Aquasteed, questioned, moved his legs to the reception room immediately.


    It''s in the castle, so it''s not like there''s anything dangerous. Plus, they''re using Elliot as a guide. He has the best sword arm and magic arm.


    - No way, did you meet Prince Haltnites?


    That idea brings Aquasteed to his head, but I don''t think so right away. Tiara Rose is not guilty of anything at the graduation party.


    There won''t be anything like complaining here.


    Yes, I was thinking - ¡­¡­.


    If you walk down the hallway to the reception room, all you see are Tiara Rose and Halt Knights.


    I thought you were being put on a claim, but apparently things are not right. It was just before Halt Knights'' hand touched Tiara Rose''s head that Aquasteed immediately turned to the two of them.


    Close your eyes slightly to the indication of intent that you don''t want to, and hold Tiara Rose gently against your chest guarding over your head with your hands. Aquasteed pays Halt Knight''s hand as it is, and at the same time points his gaze at Halt Knight like it shoots out.


    - Don''t be silly.


    "Hey, Prince Haltnites. - To my precious fianc¨¦e, what are you trying to do?


    If Aquasteed told him in a cold voice, Haltnights shook his body frighteningly.


    Usually, Aquasteed and Halt Knights, which is one way or another close. But that''s too much after the graduation party.


    Neither did Halt Knights think he''d be hated so far. And at the same time, he was clearly told that the two were engaged.


    - You made it that bad, and now you want me to be unconcerned with Tiara?


    Inside Aquasteed, anger at Halt Nights engulfed him. And at the same time, I want to make sure that Tiara Rose is protected.


    "... Huh! Oh, Master Aqua!


    "Are you okay? Sorry I''m late, Tiara"


    Tiara Rose, surprised in Aquasteed''s arms, accidentally calls Aquasteed''s name by her nickname.


    I''m terribly happy with that, and Aquasteed smiles gently and mouths one on Tiara Rose''s forehead.


    Because I''m not used to it, Tiara Rose, who turned bright red, looks up at Aquasteed in embarrassment. She was so cute that she would fit softly in her arms.


    "Prince Haltnites. Tiara is my fianc¨¦e. Can you stop trying to touch me...?


    "... Huh! Shh, I''m sorry. You''re officially engaged so soon..."


    "- Yeah. If you understand, I''ll miss you this time"


    Aquasteed embraces Tiara Rose''s face on her shoulder to keep Halt Knights out of sight.


    I stroked that beautiful hair to show it off and gave another piece of advice to Halt Knights.


    "Well, shall we go? Because I have tea and treats that Tiara likes."


    "... thank you. But I asked so suddenly..."


    "I''m fine. I was thinking of meeting you, too."


    While confused, Tiara Rose follows Aquasteed and walks. Halt Knights, who had been watching the situation for some time, left the scene silently though.


    Sneaky in the corner, Filine was in a gutsy pose... but nobody witnessed anything.

 11 11. Sometimes Feelings

    Escorted by Aquasteed, Tiara Rose visits a small garden of roses with yellow and pink roses.


    There, as Aquasteed had said, a delicious looking treat was arranged, tickling Tiara Rose''s heart.


    - What should I do? Wow, sometimes.


    Tiara Rose herself has been in and out of the castle gardens many times.


    Haltnights didn''t do much of these things, but the queen asked me out for a tea party a few times. Tea parties held exclusively by women were always held in beautiful gardens.


    Colorful flowers, delicious treats and tea. It was never too much atmosphere and that was a very pleasant space. Now it''s a good memory of Tiara Rose.


    "Tiara likes cake, too?


    "Yes."


    While the woman prepared the tea, Aquasteed prepared a variety of treats for me. One of them seemed to be a delicious cake made with lots of rice noodles.


    "Tsubaki is a famous product of Aqua''s country, right? I love it."


    "That was good. I took this from my country. Glad Tiara ate it."


    Aquasteed himself divides the cake and serves it to Tiara Rose.


    On the top surface, there were so many stiffness that the cream could not be seen. The sponge was layered on many layers, with plenty of wax in between, or a wax mousse added.


    The famous Marine Forest products are of very good quality and luxury. And this cake was brilliant enough to show at a glance that it was made of quality wax among them.


    If you gently include it in your mouth, Tiara Rose''s cheeks loosen before you know it.


    "Yummy......!


    "Good."


    Hurry, this is the cake I got baked for Tiara Rose. I''m relieved it didn''t go to waste.


    Tiara Rose also smiles naturally after a glimpse of the smiling Aquasteed. But I have to tell you thank you first about what happened earlier. Open your mouth.


    "Dear Aqua, earlier..."


    But the word runs out on the way.


    Aquasteed puts his index finger on Tiara Rose''s mouth and says, "No."


    Aquasteed gently stroked his cheek as "natural" to Tiara Rose leaning her neck wondering what it meant.


    "Because I''m Tiara''s fianc¨¦e. It''s natural to protect it, isn''t it?


    "... Huh!


    To the word fianc¨¦e, Tiara Rose dyes her face red. I told my father I would accept it from him, but he was so embarrassed to hear it from Aquasteed himself.


    Sometimes I tell the heart that makes noises like an early bell to quiet down quickly - but it can''t even work.


    "Thank you for choosing me"


    "It''s my dialogue. Welcome, thank you."


    The two of us laugh at each other and the air calms down like lies until earlier.


    So Aquasteed calls next door to introduce Elliot.


    With the engagement officially decided, Tiara Rose will be training as a bride in Marine Forest, Aquasteed''s home country, for the next year.


    The two couples then reveal themselves in the bridesmaid''s home country and later in the bridegroom''s home country for a grand wedding.


    "Again. I am a squire of Master Aquasteed, Elliot. I do not have a family name because I am not noble, but I have served Dear Aquasteed for a long time"


    "The only side I have with me is Elliot. They do it cleverly, both in combat and politics. The rest are in Marine Forest, so I''ll see you then."


    "Best regards"


    Elliot is the right arm for Aquasteed.


    Basic chores are handled, as well as fighting, politics, and taking care of my husband. There are also many occasions in which we are secretly active when it comes to rooting out this engagement.


    "Well, so am I."


    "Filine?"


    Sooner or later, Philine graciously thanked you for walking one step ahead.


    From those eyes, I felt quite a bit of faith. But Tiara Rose quickly understood what it showed.


    "I am Philine Sanfist. We have been with Tiara Rose since she was a little girl and have officially served as a samurai for a year now."


    "Philine has grown up with me. To say that you are like a sister is not an exaggeration. Best regards,"


    If the two of us smiled, both Aquasteed and Elliot laughed and nodded.


    Truth is, we haven''t talked about Tiara Rose taking someone to Marine Forest as a samurai yet.


    Of course, as a Tiara Rose, it''s best to have Filine follow you. Although Aquasteed is here, Marine Forest is an exotic land.


    But the neighborhood is a long way from home. I was worried about taking Philine, who was 18, for the convenience of her marriage.


    "Filine."


    "I will serve you all the time"


    "... thanks"


    "I''ll definitely follow you," he smiled when he saw Filine standing right beside him.


    Otherwise, Tiara Rose snorts. If you''re going to come with me to a distant land, Tiara Rose would like to know that you have to take care of Filine responsibly.


    I''m sorry for the hard work you''ve put into getting married. For that matter, I wanted to do what I could for you.


    You''re a good lady.


    "Yes, it was Filine who was always there and inspired me."


    Of course I''m not going to make you feel lonely, but there are still many things that only women can tell each other. Aquasteed is relieved that there was an excellent samurai.


    Then we enjoyed the sweets and tea for a while and talked while Elliot and Philine exchanged.


    "- Elliot."


    "Yes, I did. Philine, this way. We will share with you all the precautions you need to take when heading to Marine Forest."


    "Yes."


    In a paragraph, Aquasteed calls Elliot''s name.


    I immediately perceive my husband''s instructions and take Filine out of the garden. There are female officers and knights in the distance, but they won''t be as distant as they might be concerned.


    Suddenly Tiara Rose looks at Aquasteed in surprise, but he just smiles.


    "Tiara, come here"


    "Yes..."


    Aquasteed, rising from his seat, came to Tiara Rose and offered his hand. I take my hand and get an escort wondering if I''m going to move somewhere.


    Towards it was a bench with roses in the same garden. The two of us could sit. Guided there, Tiara Rose calms her hips.


    "It''s a good idea for the four of us to talk, but can I get some time to talk to Tiara and me?


    Aquasteed also sits next to him and strokes Tiara Rose''s hair laughing like a kid playing pranks.


    I get in trouble because when I look at Tiara Rose snorting at me, I want to be more annoyed.


    - I can''t believe someone shows up who I think is so dear.


    Slip the hand you were stroking your hair onto your cheeks and wrap your face around with both hands.


    The way your cheeks look like roses in an instant makes Aquasteed even happier. How many times would I have thought she was cute in my heart?


    Staring straight into his eyes, Aquasteed calls his name "Tiara".


    "Yes..."


    Serious Aquasteed eyes and sometimes Tiara Rose beats faster feeling closer than usual.


    - Close, close, Dear Aqua!!


    I am ashamed, but I cannot deviate because my face is touched and fixed by Aquasteed. Tiara Rose''s face goes brighter and brighter as she screams in her heart to be ashamed.


    Distance as if they were going to talk to you. However, it seems that if I close my eyes from myself, I will not be able to do so either.


    "- Thank you for accepting my engagement. But it''s not just for the top. Let me put it in person again."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "I have a sense that I''ve been pushing forward."


    Aquasteed laughing bitterly at that.


    "Miss Tiararose Lapis Clamentile. I love you more than my heart. Can I be the queen of Aquasteed Marine Forest?


    "... Yes. Best regards, Dear Aquasteed Marine Forest,"


    "Tiara......!


    Sometimes the sincere words of Aquasteed don''t stop. Is it so happy and good?


    Tiara Rose also replied immediately and, embarrassed, stared at Aquasteed and smiled. I raise my voice low, hugged so much by Aquasteed, who pleasantly calls my name.


    "Ah, Dear Aqua......"


    "I''m sorry, I''m happy... Tiara, I love you"


    "Ah......"


    Even though it''s the best thing for Tiara Rose, who is hugged close enough to know the scent of Aquasteed and is unfamiliar with men for just that.


    While held in his arms, he is jawed by Aquasteed''s fingers and turned upwards.


    Aquasteed''s face with his eyes narrowed came just around the corner, and Tiara Rose grabbed the edge of his clothes all the time.


    - Kiss, be.


    But I don''t even feel bad about it. A sweet, ticklish feeling runs through your body.


    "... n"


    Holding me by whomever I want, oh, my God.


    Tiara Rose''s feelings heightened to the first kiss as if it were a maiden''s dream. Aquasteed''s lips, touching slowly, were very gentle.


    Make a chirping noise and mouth, "Tiara" and Aquasteed call his name.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "Cute, Tiara"


    To Tiara Rose, whose name she calls to melt, Aquasteed drops her mouth to her eyeballs again. Keep your forehead, cheeks and lips moving slowly.


    Aquasteed thinks Tiara Rose, who shakes her body every time she mouths it, is cute and doesn''t want to let go.


    - A little more.


    The truth is, I was only going to say it once, but Tiara Rose''s reaction was too cute.


    If I mouthed Tiara Rose again, which turned bright red and trembled, I leaked my exhale and hugged her all the way to Aquasteed.


    I''m happy with that, and I keep my mouth shut over and over. Aquasteed thinks he wants to do that so much that he loses track of time while stroking Tiara Rose''s hair.


    "Mm-hmm... ahhh..."


    After being spoken many times, Tiara Rose leaks her exhale without knowing when to breathe. But even that gets spoken down to swallow, and it gets tired.


    Finally, he licks his lips with pepper, and Aquasteed releases his lips from Tiara Rose.


    "Hmm!... Dear Aqua"


    "Mm-hmm. Tiara was too cute to stop"


    Leaks exhalation and also causes Aquasteed to hit a body that is powerless. Tiara Rose, who remains hugged all the time, is unlikely to stand up for a while with a mouth-watering finish.


    Without much evil, Aquasteed''s words twirl around in Tiara Rose''s head that she was cute and didn''t stop.


    I just thought I''d be happy.


    - No. I''m embarrassed, I''m dying.


    But I''m glad. After this, Tiara Rose thinks about what to look like and see Aquasteed.


    But it ends in concern.


    Because - from inside the castle, there was a faint light overflowing.

 12 12. Awakening of Holy Prayer

    If Tiara Rose and Aquasteed vowed to love each other, the light poured out of the castle as if to bless it.


    But that light, which is unidentified, will soon be on alert.


    The knight, who had immediately refrained, moves forward to protect the two. Elliot then returns to the garden with Filine as well.


    "What is this...!?"


    "Dear Tiara Rose!


    I understood that everyone was instantly a magical light. - but I have never heard of such a activation phenomenon.


    Aquasteed hugs himself to protect Tiara Rose.


    It could be an enemy. I can''t act rashly.


    - Is this the holy prayer the heroine has!?


    "I''m fine. I''ll protect Tiara."


    "Dear Aqua......!


    If Tiara Rose had opened her eyes to surprise, she would have thought she was scared. Aquasteed caresses gently and opens his mouth gently when he is sure to protect it.


    But Tiara Rose knew what this light was.


    Holy prayer.


    This is a very rare magic that only one person in this world can use -.


    This magic, with its absolute power of purification, was set to allow the heroine of the Lapis Lazuli Ring to use its power.


    - I was losing it. It was in the prayers and explanations of a clean maiden, and I just thought heroin was something I couldn''t use very well because I didn''t use it.


    But there''s no way you can''t use it if it''s the way the game is.


    In the game, he had awakened that power shortly after the plea event. But how did you wake up now? Tiara Rose thinks and leads one conclusion.


    I was wondering if Miss Villain Warrant (herself) would let that happen. If it was meant to be, the power of heroin should be awake. However, the timing of Tiara Rose''s actions, the villain''s maid, was missed.


    Didn''t you wake up with an inoperable load on your body and an excessive production overflowing from the castle full of blinding light?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the game, awakened to the power of holy prayer, the heroine gives the title of Lapis from the country.


    This power, which can purify bad things, gently envelops the country itself just by having it... protect it from bad things. For this reason, in the Lapis Lazuli kingdom, historical magic holders were given the title of Lapis, although there was only a limitation on their own.


    If we are to think as usual, - there should be no exceptions.


    "... the light seems to have subsided."


    "Right. Please wait here, Master Aquasteed, as I will see."


    He grinds his nerves too much to explore the signs around him, and Elliot leaves the garden to confirm.


    I had some concerns about leaving my husband, but I decided this would be urgent. Plus, sometimes there are knights, but Aquasteed is stronger than that. That made me feel safe.


    "Tiara, don''t worry. Soon Elliot will be back with information."


    "That''s right. Don''t worry, Mr. Tiara Rose, wait with Mr. Aquasteed."


    Aquasteed and Filine try to calm down Tiara Rose, who looks anxious. But Tiara Rose was calm.


    The power of holy prayer is what every nation wants. Of course what the Lapis Lazuli kingdom wants, even the Marine Forest kingdom should want enough to get its hands out of its throat.


    Magic holders often marry the royalty of the country in which they stay.


    - What if Master Aqua craves the power of heroin?


    Oh, no way. Impossible, Tiara Rose''s brain gives the answer. But what if the scenario moves like a game...?


    At a time when the first part is almost over. What if the game is moving to part two?


    When you think about it, your senses strike Tiara Rose.


    It is the light of holy prayer. And yes, it''s easy to tell Aquasteed. But how Aquasteed would react was scarier than anything for Tiara Rose.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "... it''s okay, don''t worry"


    Unconsciously, Tiara Rose grabs Aquasteed''s clothes. Aquasteed thinks he saw the trembling Tiara Rose and was afraid of the light he might not have gotten good at.


    "It''s okay," he said again and again, stroking Tiara Rose''s back to calm her down.


    Then came a knight serving King Alexander directly to tell him what was going on.


    Salute Aquasteed and state the situation immediately.


    "Excuse me. It''s about this light, but it''s about light due to a glitch in the magic conductor. There is nothing wrong with the status quo, but Dear Tiara Rose said that you should return once after the examination of the castle''s magic guide."


    "... I see. Got it."


    Briefly communicating the status quo, the knight followed the scene.


    Aquasteed seems to be thinking something, but Tiara Rose doesn''t even know what he''s thinking.


    The knight''s report must be a lie. Tiara Rose can be sure of that, but there''s no reason to just step in.


    "It was a glitch in the magic guide, wasn''t it? I''m glad it didn''t matter."


    Aquasteed instructs Filine to prepare a carriage to relieve herself.


    "Tiara, I''ll send you back to the mansion."


    "... Yes. Okay."


    - Truth is, I don''t want to go home.


    But I can''t talk about that. I want to see with my own eyes how the game goes. Tiara Rose thinks so, but we have to accept that it was reported as a glitch in the magic guide.


    Has the king so judged, or instructed someone with power...... Tiara Rose never thought what she didn''t know was so terrible.


    But if you wish.


    - May Aqua not take the hand of heroin...


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Aquasteed sent Tiara Rose back to her own room in the castle being given.


    But there, Elliot''s not here yet.


    ¡­¡­ You''re too late. "


    Inside the castle, calm is restored, and most have already returned to their usual state of affairs.


    There''s only one reason why Elliot won''t come back in the middle of that. That all the information on the knight who came earlier to report to Aquasteed is a lie.


    Otherwise, there''s no way the good Elliot will ever come back. Yeah, see, Elliot''s good at intelligence. So much so that I was on a completely intelligence-only mission for a while.


    - Something serious happened, huh?


    I don''t know. But Aquasteed, the king prince of the neighboring country, can''t walk in the castle to find out for himself. Because if you do poorly, it can develop into something like war.


    It''s like a graduation party, not like prince to prince bullshit. If anything, King Alexander will also take a tough turn.


    "Do we have to wait?"


    No choice, Aquasteed reaches for the paperwork he planned to do after tomorrow.


    Eighty-nine, Elliot will be back with some information. Given that, it is necessary to ensure that we have a lot of free time after tomorrow.


    Then I head to my desk for a while and glance at the paperwork.


    Sometimes I think back to Tiara Rose earlier. Was it my first mouthful, I''ve moistened my eyes a little and looked up at Aquasteed.


    As much as I want to compliment myself for not pushing me down like that, Aquasteed thinks.


    Thinking we can stay together forever from now on means we can work faster.


    Concon con.


    "... in"


    The door is knocked unexpectedly. If Aquasteed looks at the clock, it fits around the time that it''s past the evening.


    As usual, a female officer brought a meal, so I give instructions to prepare it.


    Finish and clean up a stretch of work while a female officer prepares a meal with a familiar hand. If Aquasteed finishes his meal as it is, it will be an evening in no time.


    Contains a light wine prepared by a woman in her mouth and wonders what''s wrong. I thought so, but there goes the sound of a knock telling me Elliot''s back in the room.


    If you give "in" instructions immediately, Elliot looks tired.


    "I''m home now, Master Aquasteed"


    "Oh. It was late - what happened?


    "... Yes. Surprisingly, a girl named Akali, who was beside His Highness Haltnights at the graduation party, said she had awakened her holy prayer."


    ¡­¡­!!


    Aquasteed was stunned by the words Elliot had told him.


    And whoever can use the holy prayer of his predecessors, he turns his thoughts about how he was.


    - Sure, a few years ago, you were informed he was dead.


    If so, it is not surprising that a new and modern holy prayer has emerged at this stage. But more importantly, I didn''t know that was the acari -.


    Aquasteed sighed loudly and I think it was something that got into trouble.


    "A maiden who can use holy prayer, huh? - I want it."


    "Right. But King Alexander won''t let it go."


    "- Even if it could have been a war, you wouldn''t let it go."


    Aquasteed recalls that when it comes to one of the graduation parties, you were talking about not making Halt Knights king.


    I don''t know what decision King Alexander will make, but I can predict much.


    "I have a report at my place that it was a malaise in the magic conductor. King Alexander will not speak out about holy prayer until a paragraph is made. It''s proof that Elliot''s taking so long to get this far."


    "Right. - Perhaps you will make me marry His Highness Haltnights. I had declared that I would not do it to the king, so would it take the form of a second prince, His Highness Sirius, as king and supporter?"


    Nodding at Elliot''s words, Aquasteed mutters, "That''s troublesome."


    As for the school''s graduation party, King Alexander also made apologies and butt wipes for what Haltnites did, but what he interpreted was what the child did. Worst case scenario, I can also cut it off.


    But it will give a serious response when it comes to those in possession of holy prayers. Like the other day, no sweet words are tough.


    "The benefit of having those who can use holy prayer is immense. If you get it, the country will be at peace."


    "... with my power, I can intervene. - But you have a lot of disadvantages."


    "Cons, is it"


    If Aquasteed says so while thinking, Elliot reacts happily.


    Faithfully understanding his husband''s words, Elliot simulates in his brain how to move in the future. Since my husband told me to move, it''s too late.


    "Of course, the benefits are enormous. If we could have holy prayers, our country would flourish even more"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Aquasteed''s brain, calculations about the future are made at high speeds. I conceived for a few minutes and then quietly read the name of my own squire.


    "Whatever you say, Master Aquasteed."


    Immediately replying to the acknowledgement, Elliot once again erased his signs into the darkness of the night.

 13 13. Each fiancée

    Ten days went by without asking any story of Akali, a heroine, waking up to holy prayer.


    In the meantime, Tiara Rose spends time in the mansion without ever going to the castle. Aquasteed asks me to put it down for a day, but there''s nothing to talk about holy prayer.


    - Don''t you know, Master Aqua? Or, you know and you''re hiding it from me?


    You can''t ask someone about information that the royal family is silent about because they know it personally.


    Perhaps the father, the Marquis Clamentile, knows, but cannot speak because Tiara Rose herself cannot explain why she knows.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, I have finished my bridesmaid training duties"


    "Thank you, Philine. Now you can always head to Marine Forest."


    Tiara Rose talks to her father and calms down by taking Philine to Marine Forest, where she will return once she has completed a year of bride training.


    Philine said, I can tell you with my chest up that it''s okay because I will continue to do that. But he''s still young. Separate periods once for when something happens.


    I''m done getting ready for my bride training, but I still don''t have the prospect of leaving.


    Tiara Rose wonders if it will be difficult to travel until a settlement is reached on the matter of the acari.


    I also don''t think it would be very good to have Aquasteed from Marine Forest, which is a big country.


    But on the contrary, it''s smart to get clams and then report them to Aquasteed.


    That way, they won''t even take the clams from the side. Those who can use holy prayer are considered implicit understandings in the world to protect.


    "But when the hell are you leaving? Isn''t it time for His Highness Aquasteed to return home?


    "Right. Originally, Aqua studied here for a year."


    - Please, solve things quickly!


    Tiara Rose, too, can only pray that all this is resolved quickly. While I was getting anxious, I had to wait to hear from Aquasteed.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Then a few days later, Aquasteed contacted me that I was going to see him again.


    I wondered if I had finally decided on the details, and Tiara Rose strokes her chest down with relief. Nothing bad news from my father either, so I looked forward to Aquasteed''s visit.


    "Philine, did you cook the cake?"


    "Yes, it looks delicious"


    "Then can you have it in my room?


    I usually had tea on the terrace in the garden, but unfortunately it''s cloudy today. I thought I was in the reception room, but when I felt like I was about to travel, I kind of missed my room.


    Tiara Rose thinks it''s a fun memory of inviting friends to a girls'' party in the room.


    "... but it''s okay because you''re happy"


    If he had loosened his cheeks, a servant informed him of the carriage''s visit.


    Aquasteed got out of the carriage and smiled happily as he spotted Tiara Rose peeking through the window. Immediately the servant guides him, and Aquasteed goes to Tiara Rose''s room.


    "I''m sorry I haven''t been able to come much lately. I''ve had a lot of trouble getting ready."


    "No, never mind"


    As soon as we''re alone, Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose all the time.


    I apologize as if I were sorry, but I also know Tiara Rose as busy as she is. So I won''t say anything selfish.


    "But thanks to that, the process is all over. Sorry to keep you waiting, huh?


    "It''s okay, mind you, um... Huh!


    Did Aquasteed''s voice, whining "I missed you" in a small voice, finally reach Tiara Rose? I layered my lips on Tiara Rose so I could swallow the word myself.


    But soon his lips are released and he touches them one after the other, on his forehead, on his eyes, on his cheeks... mercifully.


    "Mm, Dear Aqua..."


    "Lovely today, Tiara"


    "... ugh"


    Tiara Rose''s cheeks turn red when she sees Aquasteed smiling happily. I missed you because even Tiara Rose is the same.


    As I would have informed myself of that intention, but it was a little embarrassing to hold him - Tiara Rose decided to cheek on Aquasteed''s chest.


    "Oh already, she''s really cute. Again, can I say it...?


    "... Huh!


    Aquasteed begs again as he buries his face in Tiara Rose''s hair.


    Exactly, I''m ashamed to say yes from myself. But Aquasteed''s hand gently strokes Tiara Rose and awaits her reply.


    - What should I do? In this case, what should I do!?


    I''ve only spoken to him a few times.


    Of course, I don''t hate being spoken of by Aquasteed. I don''t know how to answer that, but Tiara Rose looks up from her chest.


    That way, you can say, "Hmm?," he smiled, and his mouth dropped on his cheek. If you close your eyes unintentionally, Aquasteed seems to have accepted and received, and once again leans on Tiara Rose.


    "... n"


    While gently stroking Tiara Rose''s hair, Aquasteed mouths her to stumble twice or three more times. When a sweet exhale leaks out of Tiara Rose, I can put my strength into my hugging arm.


    "Tiara" and a sweet voice entered my ear between the mouths, my body trembling from time to time. Change the angle, the soft feeling touching Tiara Rose''s lips over and over again disturbs her breathing.


    "Huh... Huh!?"


    "Mmm..."


    Aquasteed''s tongue gently plugs in from the gap in Tiara Rose''s lips, which she thinly opened in an attempt to breathe. I shake my body and open my eyes, but I see Aquasteed''s long lashes in my sight.


    I get embarrassed and if I close my eyes again, the sound of my heart sounds to my body from time to time.


    Hot tongues get tangled and the first sensation makes me go Aquasteed. Kuchi...... and the water sounds reach my ears and my body gets hot.


    Tiara Rose thinks she''s embarrassed and embarrassed, as if she''s not her own body.


    At the end of the day I try to suck my lips softly and Aquasteed leaves.


    "Hmm, ha..."


    I lose my strength from my body, and Tiara Rose falls off.


    Aquasteed happily hugs it and sits back on the couch in a way that lets him sit on his lap.


    "Ah, Akua-sama... Huh!


    "Just a little more, let me stay close."


    Tiara Rose spoke confused, but Aquasteed caressed her hair without worrying.


    Fluffy hair has good fingers and even feels like I want to touch it forever.


    "... the engagement has been decided."


    "Huh?"


    "You''re Miss Acari. If I made it Tiara, I wouldn''t really want to hear about it."


    ¡­¡­


    Many times I stroke Tiara Rose''s hair and Aquasteed opens her mouth to see if she was satisfied.


    But that was a terribly heavy tone, and fatigue was spreading from Aquasteed himself.


    Doki, and.


    Tiara Rose''s heartbeat pulsed heavily.


    - Who the hell are you with?


    What floats instantly is how Akali and Aquasteed are engaged.


    Aquasteed is part two of the offense, but the scenario is shifting so far. It''s not strange to be engaged to a heroine who has woken up to a holy prayer.


    More than that, there is no wonder you moved to get holy prayers. Not so long ago, it''s what every nation wants.


    "Shall we stop talking about this?"


    "Huh?"


    Stopping unexpectedly, heroine topic. Tiara, why Rose? And, with doubt, I look anxiously at Aquasteed.


    That way, Aquasteed smiled at me with a troubled face on his forehead.


    "To Tiara, who looks anxious, no more. Miss Acari hurt you terribly, didn''t she?


    "Ah..."


    "So you don''t have to"


    Aquasteed cares about Tiara Rose in a slow tone so that she can talk to her child.


    But now I even think his care is terrible.


    After assuming the worst possible outcome, Tiara Rose shakes her head saying she doesn''t like it. I grabbed my hand and stared straight into Aquasteed''s eyes.


    Will the thoughts in those eyes reach Aquasteed?


    "Tiara"


    "That''s okay. ¡­ tell me, Dear Aqua"


    "... ok. If Tiara says so, let''s talk. But this story is useless."


    "Yes."


    I give him back with serious eyes, I nod quietly and reply.


    Sitting deep on the couch, Aquasteed drew Tiara Rose to his chest. "If you think I don''t like it, you tell me," he gently spins as he slowly strokes his back.


    "Miss Acari, who had said Tiara like a bad guy, was formally engaged to Prince Haltnites"


    ¡­¡­


    That voice of unseemliness of emotion only stated the facts pale.


    Tiara Rose takes her breath instantly, but her heart is relieved so that she doesn''t. It wasn''t the lowest result I had ever assumed, that I wanted nothing more.


    - Master Aqua and I didn''t get engaged...? Good.


    It''s Aquasteed who sees Tiara Rose so relieved and wonders. You seem relieved that Haltnights and Akali caught up with you and didn''t punish you.


    "Tiara?"


    "Oh, I''m sorry. I''m relieved..."


    "- Yeah?"


    "Dear Akali, I didn''t know Aqua would be engaged... yes, think so. I was so, so scared. So I''m relieved..."


    - My cutie, what a cutie to say.


    That''s what Aquasteed thinks, but at the same time, the question arises as to why it led to such thinking.


    The likelihood of Aquasteed, the king prince of the great kingdom, engaging Akali is equal to zero. Even if Aquasteed falls in love with Akali, it doesn''t match him as an identity.


    Marriage to royalty is basically more than the Earl class if it is in the country. If you are outside the country, it is fundamental that you are above the marquis class. I can make you a concubine, but that''s all.


    But it''s too late to think about that.


    "There is no way I would choose anything other than Tiara. I''m sorry I made you anxious.... Look, it''s okay not to cry"


    "Hey, I can''t believe I''m crying..."


    A large grain of tears spilled out of Tiara Rose''s eyes, which opened wide.


    Apparently he was unconscious. Besides, Tiara Rose gets confused. To the point of tears and relief, Tiara Rose''s feelings had been so aquasteed captured.


    "Don''t cry," he spoiled gently, and Tiara Rose breathes a ho.


    "Tiara takes us back to Marine Forest. - Next to me, you''ll be here forever, right?


    "... Yes. Of course, Master Aqua."


    She receives spilled tears with her lips and Aquasteed smiles gently.


    Nodding loudly, Tiara Rose asks Aquasteed to speak first.


    I cried, but I couldn''t help but worry about the rest.


    "... right. King Alexander tells you that Prince Haltnites will not hold the throne?


    "Yes, I''m asking."


    "Yeah. That''s why the next king of the Lapis Lazuli kingdom is Prince Sirius, the second prince. Yesterday, a formal engagement was made with Miss Charlotte."


    Sirius Lapislazuli Lactomut, the second prince of the Lapislazuli kingdom.


    And Charlotte Lapis Altiaque, the Duke''s family''s courtier who gives Lapis.


    The two are still young, the prince is seven, and Miss Charlotte is twelve. It''s tough for a woman to be five years old, but she''s going to make the second prince king. The back shield of the Duke''s family giving Lapis will be essential.


    - Beautifully, put together?


    Assist Haltonites with Sirius as king and Acari as wife with holy prayer. That way, the country will turn well.


    Apart from what Halt Knights and Akali think.

 14 14. A Different End to the Game

    Tiara Rose was briefed by Aquasteed about the future.


    It will be 10 days before I return home. At that time, Tiara Rose shall also be taken home for bride training.


    Until I was relieved, Filine immediately carried out a final check and began working closely with the Marquis of Clamenteal.


    You don''t have to be that fine. Tiara Rose thinks that, but it''s also true that she''s happy and groaning.


    - I''m so glad Master Aqua didn''t get engaged to heroin!


    This is the end of the day.


    Tiara Rose, pleaded guilty to Acari and Haltonites, is of course hurt. But that''s just a scenario for the game in question.


    Tiara Rose, who became cherished by Aquasteed, began to think so.


    But it was also in the meantime that I was so relieved.


    The unfolding that I hadn''t anticipated came at midnight.


    "... hmm?


    If Tiara Rose is asleep, a blinking light runs into her room.


    It was a moment, but enough for Tiara Rose, who was in the same room, to wake up.


    "This magic can be used for metastases in the country. Convenient.... oh, good evening"


    "... Dear Acari?


    In an instant, it was the acari that was supposed to be in the castle that showed up in Tiara Rose''s own room.


    Wasn''t she, the heroine of this game, protected in a way close to house arrest?


    "I''ve thought about it a lot already."


    - What are you gonna do?


    Tiara Rose calls out Akali''s name, but she doesn''t care to move on. While frowning at it, I wake my body out of bed and face the clams.


    "Dear Tiara, - You''re Japanese, aren''t you?


    "... Huh!


    "Because the only thing that was different from the game was Dear Tiara. Dear Halt Knights, Brother Morgris, Cliff, Doctor, everyone. It was just like the event. Yet it didn''t work out at all at the end!!"


    The conclusion she arrived at is that Tiara Rose, who made it a different development from the game, is the same as herself.


    Surely that is not wrong. But is it the right perception to make the reincarnated Tiara Rose Japanese after all?


    The color of your hair, the color of your eyes. Even though I''m not Japanese.


    "Uh... Dear Acari, I don''t know what you mean."


    "You don''t have to blur. I can''t believe Aqua came out that I liked the most because I was planning to marry Master Haltnights and be happy. Surprise me already...! Because it was the main target of the sequel, I thought it was my second favorite Halt Knights. If you can marry Aqua, Aqua is a good choice!!"


    This means that Akali prefers Aquasteed to Halt Knights.


    Did you come here to say goodbye to Aquasteed? Where Tiara Rose thought so, Akali quietly looked at Tiara Rose.


    ¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    What the hell? So surprised, Tiara Rose leans her neck like she''s in trouble for now.


    But the next moment, my body swayed tremendously in the words of Akali. I was upset.


    "Master Tiara would know very little about the sequel, wouldn''t she? Lovely heroines in Marine Forest and Aqua-like events."


    That''s the information I wanted enough to get my hands off my throat for Tiara Rose, who doesn''t know what the sequel is about. Especially heroines that would attack Aquasteed.


    Seeing Tiara Rose''s reaction, Akali said, "I knew it!" I laugh.


    "I tried kama, and I''m glad you caught me. But Dear Tiara''s appearance is the same as Tiara Rose''s in the game. What do you mean?"


    "... reincarnation, right? I remember playing this game as a Japanese. That''s all."


    "Phew," Acari nodded as impressed, if Tiara Rose spoke as she had noticed.


    "That means the previous life was Japanese, right? Mm-hmm?


    "You mean he died not playing the sequel...?


    "............... right"


    Thinking of something, Akali predicts what happened when Tiara Rose died in her previous life. It''s nothing like hiding it now, so if I honestly nodded, Akali was terribly surprised.


    I put my hand on my mouth and bumped and squealed, "That''s impossible.


    Even if you''re so surprised, you can''t help it because it''s already dead. Because there''s nothing I can do.


    - Sora, even I wanted to play the sequel and collect Aqua-like stills!!


    That''s already true. There must have been a lot of beautiful stills and occasional events.


    "Leave me alone," he says, as he tries to kill some firmly played acari. - But Akali hasn''t heard that.


    Suddenly he went under Tiara Rose and grabbed his hand. And with a few tears in his eyes, he spoke quickly.


    "Pathetic! Dear Tiara, how pathetic you haven''t played the sequel!! Such a great maiden game, there''s nothing else! Of course, Master Halt Knights is nice... Still, Aqua is the nicest. The heroine of the sequel has a solid official name and character. I''m a duke of Marine Forest named Isira, and when Aqua was sick and tired of her fianc¨¦e being forced into the country, she met me at sea. The stills are sooo nice too, how many times have you played them. Like me, my life is stable because I''m not even going to be adopted by the Count from a civilian... At any rate, I wanted to come to this world in the position of sequel heroine! Ha..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The more Tiara Rose accidentally pulled the dong, the acari spoke. He says he likes Aquasteed so much that he thinks where the hell he was breathing.


    But some of them were able to get information about the sequel heroine that Tiara Rose wanted to know. That''s just too bad.


    "Uh. So, why did Akali come here?


    "Huh? Oh, yeah. Actually, I''m officially engaged to Mr. Haltnights."


    - Yeah. I know.


    "So? As Tiara knows, I can use holy prayer."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "So if I tell Aqua about it, I can marry my favorite Aqua without any problems. You know how important this power is in this world, don''t you, Tiara?


    Yeah, nodding, Akali talks about her plan.


    And Tiara Rose notices a hole in the information she knows.


    - Does Aqua know that Akali can use holy prayer?


    When I heard the story during the day, I heard nothing on that point. That Haltnites and Akali''s engagement has been decided, that Haltnites will not be king. I just heard that.


    They haven''t even asked me why I made Akari my fianc¨¦e. Of course, it''s possible he cared about Tiara Rose, who looked anxious.


    However, it is also possible that Aquasteed does not know. Tiara Rose trembled anxiously considering those two possibilities.


    "So Tiara, please break up with Aqua"


    "No."


    To Akali, who frankly told him to break up, but Tiara Rose also instantly returned the word. Rather, Tiara Rose herself was surprised that the words came out immediately.


    "... Huh! Why? Not good!! ''Cause Master Tiara isn''t playing the sequel, is she? Then you''re no more thoughtful than me, Aqua. I love Master Aqua and I''ve played that many times already!


    Suddenly he barked his voice and said, "That''s crazy!" and the acari bark.


    But it''s not Tiara Rose, either, who can keep her mouth shut when she says that. What are you talking about, I look at the clams with harsh eyes.


    "Master Aqua is not a game. There''s one human being living in this world!


    "So what? Of course I know that."


    "In that idea, it''s not a disregard for Aqua''s will."


    "... what are you talking about? Lord Aqua is royal, and I am one with holy prayer. It''s not common sense in this world to get married."


    To the words of the acari, Tiara Rose bites her lips tightly.


    What possesses holy prayer and royal marriage are too common sense for this world. Akali''s words are unscrupulous, but they make sense in this world.


    "Look, you can''t say anything, can you? That''s because Master Tiara knows exactly what it is. If you are Aqua, the king and prince of the great kingdom, you will surely make the decision to get me."


    "... but Master Akali is already engaged to His Highness Haltnights, isn''t he? We can''t imitate that from the side."


    "¡­ I have not yet nodded about the engagement. The king just decided on his own. So I just need you to tell Master Aqua about this power and give him protection. So yes - ¡­"


    Acari that she goes to Marine Forest in the form of protection and then marries Aquasteed. It is not so easy to escape from this country, but it would also be possible if Aquasteed, the King Prince of the Great Powers.


    The sudden expansion once again causes anxiety for Tiara Rose.


    With an uncomfortable grin, Akali turns to Tiara Rose with her hands firmly in front of her.


    - What? This feeling is trying to use magic...?


    Ha, but Akali, the heroine, possesses immense magic. Conversely, Tiara Rose, a villain warrant position, is not a lot of magic.


    Chilli and thunder run from the hands of an acari. Bickle and shake, Tiara Rose lags behind. There''s nothing to prevent.


    Even if defensive magic is used, it cannot be prevented because of the large difference in magic power.


    "Dear Tiara was injured and the engagement was dissolved. So you thought about the scenario."


    "... eh"


    A grinning acari could be described as a nice smile.


    Tiara Rose will hit her back against the wall of the room if she keeps falling back without a solution. I wish I could go to the next room through the door next door, but I can''t turn my back without knowing when the attack magic will come.


    "It''s okay, because I''m just going to get a little hurt. Don''t worry, it''s enough for me and Aqua to go to sleep for a few months"


    "You can''t be forgiven for that!


    "I''m a heroine, so I''m really going to end up happy with you."


    Bacilli and thunder glowed greatly, "For the happiness of me and Master Aqua, please," he said. Akali''s mouth spins that word.


    "Thunder, boom!


    "Geez,...... Huh!


    A loud thunder becomes a muscle of light and heads in a straight line to Tiara Rose so as to respond to the acari''s voice. I know there''s no way to prevent it, and I try to shelter my body with my hands, but it doesn''t work.


    Tiara Rose closed her eyes long in preparation for the shock - but the shock didn''t come.


    "Huh...?


    What the hell is going on, I open my eyes softly.


    So what I got into view was the magic of the junction, which gently protects Tiara Rose. Of course, Tiara Rose can''t use junctional magic that completely prevents acari magic in this way.


    So, who''s...?


    "I''m glad I made it"


    "Dear Aqua!


    Whoa, Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose from behind.


    Apparently, he came into the room through the door, and there was also a father figure behind him.


    The feeling was already flying somewhere as to why Aquasteed would be here, or if they would pick an acari, or die of attack magic.


    Aquasteed came to help us, and that was enough.


    "What the hell is this... I didn''t know you really had an acari."


    "Miss Acari, of course you can give me an explanation, right?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Akali was surprised by the sudden appearance of his beloved Aquasteed and the Marquis of Clamenteal.


    I do know that the Marquis of Clementil, who lives in the same mansion, rushes because he has indeed made a scene. But it''s the castle where Aquasteed lives. It is unlikely that you will come here.


    "Why..."


    For this reason, it was the words of doubt that leaked out of the mouth of the acari.


    To the two who would see it with tough eyes, but Akali immediately recalled his original plan.


    "It''s not, Master Aqua! I woke up to the power of holy prayer. But I was about to be forced into an engagement with Master Haltnights... Dear Aqua, please help me. I don''t want to be in this country. Please take me to Aqua''s country."


    Undoubtedly, I was useful, and I had confidence in Akali that it would be in the interest of Marine Forest, a big country.


    So if Aquasteed finds out Akali is a holy prayer user, he can choose. That was a certainty in the acari.


    "Do what you want. Lord Akali would like His Highness Haltnights, wouldn''t he? Nobody would believe me if I said that now."


    "Marquis Clamentir, please keep quiet. I''m talking to Master Aqua!


    To the Marquis of Clementil, who came into the room late, Akali returns his words vigorously.


    Choosing himself quickly, Akali stared straight at Aquasteed.


    In the meantime, it is Tiara Rose who is experiencing tremendous fear.


    Wouldn''t Aquasteed choose acari? Or maybe we''ll just take the acari back to the country in the name of protection.


    Only such an unpleasant thought went around my head.


    "I don''t think Master Aqua knew, but I woke up the other day to a holy prayer. So take me to Marine Forest. With me, the country will grow and flourish."


    "No, no...!


    "Tiara?"


    Take my hand quickly, and it''s Tiara Rose who reacted to Akali''s just saying that.


    He returned the word of refusal and grabbed Aquasteed''s clothes all the time. It is of course aquasteed to return words gently to it, stroking his head to refrain.


    "I know."


    "Huh -?"


    Tiara Rose and Akali leak their voices simultaneously to the quiet Aquasteed voice.


    In an instantly quiet room, Aquasteed''s words go well.


    "Of course I know that Miss Acari is the holder of the Holy Prayer"


    "Then why didn''t you make me your fianc¨¦e...?


    "- Not really, I have trouble getting you to lick it. I can develop my country without a holy prayer."


    "... Huh!


    Everyone on the spot takes a breath.


    The words of Aquasteed, the king prince of the great kingdom, are so heavy, so quiet, so majestic.


    "So I don''t need Miss Acari."


    Aquasteed, who clearly refuses, shocked the spot.


    I assured him that I did not need a holy prayer. Every country wants so much as a hand out of its throat that it doesn''t need Aquasteed.


    "I have Tiara. There''s no need for a woman other than Tiara."


    "Ah, Dear Aqua..."


    "I''m sorry I''m late to come and help you, aren''t I?


    Smile gently and Aquasteed drops his lips on his forehead to touch the treasure.


    And hold Tiara Rose sideways, embracing her to protect her. "I''m glad I made it," the word leaked from Aquasteed, but the word was too small to reach Tiara Rose''s ear.


    "Shh... No, no, no, no. I can''t believe I''m not chosen..."


    - Capture him.


    Kneeling down on the floor and watching the clams repeat their words, Aquasteed gives orders in a cold voice.


    Just a few knights entered the room and captured the clams. Install a magic guide that cannot activate magic and take you to the castle.


    I also thought you were going to scream at me not to like it, but Akali was taken very manly without resistance or anything. The rejection of my favorite Aquasteed was terrible.


    "Thank you, Master Aqua"


    "I''m glad you''re safe. Are you hurt?


    "Yes, Master Aqua is here, no injuries"


    Smiling fluffy, Tiara Rose deposits her head in Aquasteed''s chest. I got nervous and tired all at once.


    I try to wake my head up thinking I shouldn''t, but Aquasteed controls that.


    "Keep it up. This happened, so you could be sweeter."


    - Plus, the princess hugs... I''m ashamed, but I''m glad.


    Sometimes, too sweet...... and that''s what I thought Tiara Rose. I''ve always feared Aquasteed would hate me for being selfish.


    Tiara Rose, a villain''s warrant lady who was to be deported from the country. Everything I did was actually very scary.


    But don''t worry about that anymore.


    Aquasteed clearly chose Tiara Rose instead of Acari on this occasion. What can I say about this feeling, which is unparalleled?


    - Happy, I guess.


    With that in mind, Tiara Rose could finally laugh from the bottom of her heart.

 15 15. New Travel

    The Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli has a very large and beautiful lake.


    On the shore of that lake is built a white tower, surrounded by colorful flowers, commonly known as the Tower of the Princess. The tower is also embedded with relief that mimics flowers, but it is considered a state secret that it is a magic guide.


    This is where important people live, determined to have to seal their magic.


    Only a very small part of the country''s power will know that¡­.


    "... why do I have to live here?"


    Acari was on the top floor of the tower, softening her dark hair. Looking out the window, the wind strokes its hair.


    He was originally placed under house arrest in the Royal Palace guest room, but he was moved to this white tower for using magic and trying to do harm to Tiara Rose.


    If it is meant to be, we must impose severe penalties.


    But that he who has holy prayer. Because Tiara Rose did not want heavy punishment, punishment is life on this tower.


    As for Tiara Rose, the sympathy of being the only Japanese. And they took it that way as a thank you for being able to accidentally tell me the name of the heroine in the sequel.


    Fortunately, there were no injuries, as well as the fact that Aquasteed nodded to Tiara Rose''s words. And most importantly, I didn''t want to lose an acari with holy prayers as a country.


    "Dear Aqua rejects me... Dear Halt Knights, it doesn''t really bother me... How did this happen when I was a heroine? I wish I could magically metastasize somewhere."


    Puffiness and leaking from the mouth of an acari is a despair for one''s life.


    Using vast amounts of magic and transferring... Originally, it was easy, and I could only use a little magic while I was in this tower.


    The flower relief that wraps around the outer walls of the tower is a magically sealed magic guide. It looked like a stylish ornament, but it was something closely calculated and special.


    "When it comes to what you can do, magically illuminate instead of lights. To get a little water out of the room, I can use it as a cooler replacement. There''s something else I can do, but I''m not sure."


    But what you absolutely know is that you can''t get yourself out of this tower.


    There''s a special lock on the entrance, and there''s a guard knight inside and outside the tower. If you try to get violent, the knight will fly right in.


    "If it was a maiden game, the prince would come to help...... This was also a maiden game."


    No one can help me with the acari.


    There will be times when you can get out of the tower, but you will not be able to do so freely under strict control at that time. I wish Halt Knights was at least there, I thought so.


    "... Huh? Master Halt Knights."


    Did prayer make sense, or it was Halt Knights who showed up under the tower.


    Really shining his face, Acari welcomed Haltnights in. Encourage them to sit on the couch and prepare their favorite tea and cookies.


    "I won''t stay that long, don''t worry about it"


    "I want to. I can''t help it here..."


    "Acari......"


    - ''Cause you''re not taking me out, are you?


    Then, "at least have a good time for tea," he said. Akali laughs powerlessly.


    "Me and Acari are getting married and going to be assistants to Sirius, the second prince. This is a decision, and the acari have no right of veto"


    "... ok"


    "Honestly, you snort. I heard you admire Prince Aquasteed."


    Even though Akali has a brilliant plan, he doesn''t stay so strong that Aquasteed, who liked him, refused him.


    Besides, Halt Knights is misunderstanding. Yes, I think Akali. Even though they say it''s really glamorous, it is, so I can''t help it.


    Akali likes Aquasteed.


    Everyone thinks so.


    Of course, that''s true.


    "-... but I love Halt Knights too"


    pompous, but I looked straight into Haltnights eyes and Akali told me.


    And what''s very surprising is Halt Knights, of course. Because Acari''s mind was totally geared to Aquasteed and he thought it was something he didn''t have.


    "¡­ Acari"


    "Master Halt Knights?


    Did you say anything strange? Acari, who thinks so, is somewhat surprised by Halt Knights.


    It''s normal for Akali, but not for the others.


    Akali loves this world, which is a maiden game.


    There''s no way I dislike the attackers that exist there. Guys, I love it. The pure thought fell to the heart of Suttori, Haltnites.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Halt Knights feels his eyeballs getting hot.


    That''s how I feel about Akari, even now, but I''m glad... Selfishly, I did what I wanted, Akali. Aquasteed also likes acari.


    But even in Halt Knights, there is something called pride. My heart tells me that I can''t admit everything right away.


    "... I''m leaving today"


    "What!? But isn''t Master Halt Knights just now..."


    I decided to get off the tower immediately and get home early enough.


    Because I thought if I stayed in this place, I''d be talking about something terrible.


    Is that because Akali was the heroine and Haltnites was the target of the attack? Or was there another reason - ¡­¡­.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Tiara Rose, stay well."


    "If you need anything, we''ll be in touch soon."


    "... Yes. Mother, father. But don''t worry. I''m very happy."


    Day of your trip to Marine Forest.


    In front of the mansion, Tiara Rose spares a farewell to her parents alongside Aquasteed, who will return home once a year for an unveiling ceremony, but basically not during that time.


    And if you officially marry him, you will be queen. It''s so easy, it''s harder to leave the country and go home. Of course, Aquasteed will take care of it, but it''s Tiara Rose who thinks she can''t be too selfish.


    "My lord Aquasteed, I beseech you my daughter"


    If the Marquis Clamentile bows his head to Aquasteed, he smiles, "Please don''t".


    "Of course I''ll take care of it, and I''ll be sure to be happy. I''m already so happy."


    "Dear Aqua...... I''m happy now, aren''t I?


    "Ha, you got this done. But I''m glad Tiara''s happy."


    Tiara Rose says it''s in front of her parents, but if she notices it, she''ll have a sweet vibe. Even though I was unconscious, I did something embarrassing.


    I turned my face red and leaned over and laughed as Aquasteed creaked happily on the side.


    "A year from now, let me hear a lot of fun stories"


    "Yes, Father, please be well"


    "Absolutely."


    A 20-day carriage ride is scheduled for Marine Forest on the way.


    I don''t have to, I''m off to the city for a rest. In addition, Aquasteed''s desire to slow down with Tiara Rose is also interwoven.


    Elliot tells me that if I say goodbye, I''m ready to leave.


    It is the Marquis of Clamenteal, his father, who hears it and seems lonely. "You''re already gone, I miss you," he leaks.


    But delaying your departure any longer makes it night after evening to reach the city you plan to stay in. The father, who knows it, sends Tiara Rose out with a snort.


    "Good luck."


    "Watch your body."


    "Yes, your father and mother are well, expect a lot of souvenirs in a year"


    "Ha, that''s exciting"


    My parents hug me all the time, and Tiara Rose weeps. It doesn''t mean I''ll never see you again, but I can''t believe I miss you so much.


    The Marquis of Clamenteal, who unexpectedly cried, blames Tiara Rose for "hurry up". I''m so ashamed that I showed my daughter tears.


    "Your father''s tears, I''ve never seen them before"


    "I''m not saying anything stupid, come on. It is not good to be late for arrival in the city. It''s dangerous at night."


    "Yes, thank you, Father"


    There was no such thing as majesty as a marquis now to a father who spoke quickly to hide the tele. A normal, one-father figure is there.


    Tiara Rose, happy about it, smiled that it was happy too.


    "Philine, do well, too."


    "Yes, Dear Tiara Rose, I am here to support you."


    "Oh. I asked you to."


    Filine also greeted him and had to leave.


    With Tiara Rose and Aquasteed on the same carriage, Filine embarks on a subsequent carriage. Elliot is wearing an escort, so he rides on and moves on.


    - Sometimes, I do.


    Sometimes I''ve felt it many times before, but sometimes today, it was a happy occasion for Tiara Rose.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Per...... and the carriage plays a light tone and proceeds.


    Heading there is Marine Forest in Aquasteed''s homeland. Tiara Rose is the kingdom that will marry and be queen.


    Now the two of us ride the carriage alone, but Tiara Rose gets nervous about what to talk about.


    Of course Tiara Rose hasn''t noticed Aquasteed loosening her cheeks when she sees things like that.


    "It''s not until six days before we get to the city with the border with Marine Forest. Then the scenery changes. Lots now, you should look outside"


    "Yes. I''ve never been to Marine Forest, but there''s a lot of fairies, right?


    "Ah. Tiara would surely be blessed"


    Tiara Rose recalls looking out the window as Aquasteed told her, speaking of fairies.


    In the Lapis Lazuli kingdom, the first part of the game, fairies rarely exist. The same applies to other countries, where fairies only prefer to live in Marine Forest.


    If you receive blessings, you can benefit from remembering new magic.


    Instead of playing the game, Tiara Rose in her previous life died at the stage that Aquasteed''s information just came out.


    Speaking of certain knowledge, only the knowledge gained while living as Tiara Rose.


    That it is a beautiful country inhabited by fairies and surrounded by abundant seas and forests. And corals like natural jewels. Tiara Rose had asked various people that it was a country where girls wanted to go once.


    "... I look forward to meeting the fairies"


    Laughing like a haha, Tiara Rose looks out again. The mansion turns its gaze in a certain direction and strikes an emotion.


    When I think it''s going to be a new environment, I miss it so much.


    "... father, mother. I''m very happy."


    The pompous and squeaky word also goes into Aquasteed''s ear because of the carriage.


    Hold Tiara Rose to reassure her and mouth gently. "It''s okay," Aquasteed said, spoiling Tiara Rose.


    "Yes."


    Dye your cheeks on the accidental mouthpiece, but lean courageously against Aquasteed''s shoulder.


    Let''s try it sweet! And Tiara Rose thought, Of course, squeeze all the courage you can have.


    "Oh, I knew Tiara was cute already"


    Hold the sweetening Tiara Rose shoulder and nod her face at that hair.


    Mouth me again. The moment Aquasteed tried to think and act like that - a small light shined in the middle of the carriage.


    "What...!?"


    "... a letter, huh?


    Wrapped in glitter light, it was an envelope.


    If Aquasteed reached out and saw it, the surface said ''To Dear Tiara Rose'' and it was clear to whom.


    It soon becomes apparent that the adorable round letters are those written by women. But I''m not in Tiara Rose with any friends who do this.


    Besides, this is special magic. Wouldn''t you also need magic and talent? Aquasteed cut the seal while Tiara Rose thought so.


    "Ah..."


    "It sounds like a letter to Tiara, but it''s too suspicious. I''m sorry, but I''ll check."


    "No, that''s nothing good...... If it is dangerous, it may cause damage to Aquasteed. Don''t open it so soon..."


    Suddenly it exploded and I can''t wait for Aquasteed to blow up.


    Aquasteed, who thought he didn''t like the fact that he opened the letter on his own, was happy to learn that it was a word of concern for him. "It''s okay," he said, feeling absolutely confident and stroking Tiara Rose to reassure him.


    "It''s not particularly malicious. It''s like a letter from Miss Acari."


    "Master Akali''s?


    - What the hell are you going to do? After all, I can''t give up Master Aqua......?


    Acari launched an attack on Tiara Rose. That was from my feelings for Aquasteed, so the letter from her - it doesn''t feel good.


    I wonder what it says, Aquasteed read it out.


    "Dear Tiara, This letter is the greatest magic I can use in a white tower. All you can do is write a letter, it''s magic. I will try my best to be happy with Master Haltnights. So please make Master Tiara happy, too. ¡­¡­ again, this is too convenient."


    "Well...... ¡­¡­¡­¡­!!


    Look at the beautifully written letters, Tiara Rose can only smile bitterly. I even want to complain about what a letter of content you send me.


    but tiara rose noticed. - I have the last line of the note, a sentence written in Japanese.


    "If you lose a sequel heroine or something, I won''t forgive you!!"


    "Heh, heh... Huh!


    "Tiara?"


    Tiara Rose laughed unexpectedly.


    "It''s nothing," he told Aquasteed, who was surprised to finally frown and took the letter. It''s really in Tiara Rose''s hands. That puts it back in the envelope again.


    - Is this her own ale?


    "Dear Aqua, this letter...... may I have it?


    "... of course I don''t mind that, but it''s a letter from Miss Acari who did terrible things to Tiara. Don''t you hate it?


    "That''s okay. I look at this when it''s going to screw up, and I encourage it."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    How can that be encouraging? I couldn''t understand the last sentence at all for Aquasteed, who couldn''t read it.


    but make me like it if Tiara Rose says so.


    You can''t beat the heroine of a sequel you haven''t seen yet.


    Tiara Rose swore so to her heart - ¡­.

 16 1. Fairy Land Marine Forest

    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, officially engaged, are very happy.


    The next year will be the period during which Tiara Rose conducts bridesmaid training. Thereafter, once returned home, the bride''s home country will be unveiled.


    Once that is done, the next will be a grand wedding in the country of Aquasteed, the bridegroom, and a formal couple.


    Now full of such hope.


    The Tiara Rose line was headed for Marine Forest in a carriage in soft sunshine.


    We have a 20-day trip planned, and now it''s day six. It''s a little bit ahead of the border between the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli and the Kingdom of Marine Forest.


    Tiara Rose touches her fluffy honey pink hair with her fingers and puts her thoughts on the road ahead.


    "Now we say goodbye to Lapis Lazuli for a while. Are you okay?"


    "Yes, I am very excited about Aqua''s country"


    Caring for Tiara Rose leaving her hometown, Aquasteed smiled gently. Shake harder when dark blue hair tilts his neck to enhance his neat face.


    However, Tiara Rose was very excited to go to Marine Forest.


    Sea very beautiful with fish and corals. Clear, beautiful forest of air. And the fairies.


    Either way, it will be my first experience for Tiara Rose.


    I''m relieved to see Tiara Rose push out of all excitement.


    Still, she looks lonely somewhere - I''ll be sure to protect her. Yes, Aquasteed thinks.


    "Ah! Is that the border?


    "Yeah. That was the first time you saw it. I can see rose blossoms from Lapis Lazuli (this side), but the border from Marine Forest is decorated differently."


    "Wow. This one is beautiful, but I look forward to it after I go through it"


    To Tiara Rose, who laughs happily, Aquasteed wants to look fast.


    What is the border of this world - made using magic, commonly referred to as the border wall.


    It can emphasize its own country as a thin transparent wall stretching out into the sky. Generations of kings pour magic upon their inauguration and go repainting their borders anew.


    The border made by Alexander, king of the modern Lapis Lazuli kingdom, is inspired by rose flowers. It is a beautiful border wall.


    "The border walls are nice, but the gates are also very beautiful with roses"


    "We''ve got a call, so we''re just passing through in the carriage."


    "Don''t you need a belongings test or something?


    If you crawl through the gate, Marine Forest. To say so Aquasteed, Tiara Rose wonders.


    Without inspection, people like suspicious people and spies can easily come and go. A little anxious about the border, Tiara Rose blushes.


    "Of course, I usually do. But I''m the royal family of Marine Forest. Exempt if processed beforehand"


    "You were. If I did, I''d be ignorant..."


    - Royalty is convenient.


    This means that Tiara Rose has a solid inspection when crossing the border alone.


    It was Tiara Rose who was able to dispense with tests that would probably be cumbersome and I think it would have been sneaky.


    Then, as Aquasteed said, the carriage crossed the border gate without stopping its steps.


    And it is the kingdom of Marine Forest, the home of Aquasteed - ¡­.


    "Wow, wow...... whoa!


    Looking at the border wall on the Marine Forest side, Tiara Rose raised an exclamation.


    The border walls loosen up and create a fantastic atmosphere as if surrounded by water. It is made of miracle magic, which can only be done because it is a country where fairies are blessed.


    "I''m glad you liked it."


    "Yes, very much. You''re just surprised today."


    "Hehe. Then I''ll surprise you more -"


    "Huh?"


    "Look at that."


    Aquasteed laughs when she sees how cute and shaky Tiara Rose is.


    And I wanted you to be more surprised, and I opened the window of the carriage and pointed a little farther. Tiara Rose reacted to that by adding, "Wow!" Raise your voice.


    What I saw there was a beautiful clear sea. It was glittering and reflective of the sun''s light, like a jewel.


    - The sea! I''ve never seen it in this world!!


    "Let''s take a break, shall we?"


    "Is that okay? I''m glad."


    "I want to put a little foot on the ocean," Tiara Rose slapped her hand in front of her chest and laughed.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The sea of Marine Forest is said to be the most beautiful sea in this world.


    In the sea, the fairies of the sea dwell. It''s just not true if anyone asks if I can see you. Fairies only show themselves before those they like.


    - Will you show me?


    Tiara Rose, escorted by Aquasteed and out of the carriage, was anxious about the matter. The royal family of Marine Forest, everyone is loved by fairies.


    I need to be liked by fairies, too, to be queen... Tiara Rose is nervous.


    "Are you all right, Philine"


    "Yes, thank you for your attention"


    If thoughts were given to the fairy from time to time, Philine, the maid of Tiara Rose, and Elliot, the squire of Aquasteed, appeared.


    Elliott, who cares about Filine, unfamiliar with the carriage journey, turns his gaze immediately to the sea though.


    "Oh, Elliot is liked by sea fairies. - Here."


    Squeeze, the sound of shine in my ear. The four of us walked right to the sea, and Pippi and the sea fairy showed their appearance on the sea level.


    Tiara Rose and Filine raise their voices "cute" by accident.


    The sea fairy looked like a mermaid. Now, the size of your body is a little larger than the palm of your hand.


    "A fairy is so small..."


    "You''ve never seen Filine either. You''re so cute, you surprised me."


    "To Aquasteed, it''s Elliot ~"


    "Welcome home, welcome home ~!


    Shaggy, the sea fairy delighted Aquasteed and Elliot''s return. And the two of you who say "I''m home" are proof that you''re close to the fairy.


    Tiara Rose is the one nodding at such an exchange. My desire to get along with the fairy is overflowing from all over my body.


    Smiling at her husband like that, Filine called out to Tiara Rose, "Let''s go".


    "Oh, yeah. Could we get along..."


    "Dear Tiara Rose, you''ll be fine."


    What if they hate me? That''s right, head to head - if you don''t try, you don''t know. Aquasteed also snorted, urging Tiara Rose to go before the sea fairy.


    Gracefully courtesy of the lady, Tiara Rose opened her mouth to say hello - but was blocked by the words of the sea fairy.


    "Oh no! I hate it!! ''


    "Touch it!


    "...... Huh!!"


    Without uttering a word, the word ''dislike'' flies from the fairy.


    Not much of a shock Tiara Rose has solidified, and Aquasteed is in a hurry for a development he didn''t anticipate either.


    I immediately go next to Tiara Rose and follow up with "Because fairies are whimsical"...... not really a follow up.


    Filine also goes beside Tiara Rose and throws words of encouragement. - I had plans. It is also blocked by fairy words.


    "Who?


    ''I know, they called me Filine!


    "Phylline? Me, Phylline sucks ~!


    It was Filine who put it a little bit in that language. Because my husband even told me he didn''t like fairies, but he told me he liked the samurai''s self.


    This is not where I follow Tiara Rose. A philline of prayer for quiet thoughts, please, but fairies don''t stop.


    From the fairy of the sea, a glittering light poured down on Filine. Yes, this is a blessing that fairies are said to give only to those who like it specially.


    "Wow! How could I?"


    Why not Dear Tiara Rose! and. Filine screamed in her heart.


    "Well...... Philine is kind to the heart. It''s only natural that the fairies like it."


    "That''s not true. Master Tiara Rose deserves much more than I do..."


    - After all, can''t you like it because you play games in your previous life and you''re freaked out by the heroine in the sequel? Was even something like geek aura flowing out?


    Tiara Rose thinks about that while in shock, approximating Philine''s worries.


    But still, the shocking thing is true. Drop your shoulders and Aquasteed gently held Tiara Rose''s shoulder.


    "Tiara just came to this country. What, so take your time. Besides, I''m so relieved that the fairies won''t take Tiara."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Chihuahua Aquasteed mouths Tiara Rose''s forehead. That just makes me feel happy, ho ho ho.


    Although there is no fairy blessing, that''s all I''m satisfied with if I think there is a sweet, gentle blessing of Aquasteed for that matter.


    If Philine and Elliot smiled at how it was, accidentally, the pan and the ocean raised their snubs.


    "Huh -?"


    It was a very cute, adorable girl who showed up more than in the ocean.


    I think Tiara Rose and Filine are as if they were the fairy princesses of the sea. Light, watery, saggy hair stretches all the way under your shoulders, and crisp orange eyes attract people.


    "Isira......"


    - Huh?


    That''s the world of games. Fairy princess! In that way, it was only for a moment that Tiara Rose was conceived at ease.


    From the mouth of Aquasteed, who was next door, the name was given.


    Isira.


    That''s the name of the¡­ heroine in the sequel to this maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring.


    Heroine called by name - Isira blinks her pretty eyes as if she noticed this one. And soon he recognized who he was, and smiled with an extraordinary smile.


    "Your Highness Aquasteed! It''s been a long time."


    "Ah. Long time no see. So far, you''ve been swimming...?


    "Yes, I was swimming with the sea fairies and..."


    It''s unclear where Isira has been swimming from, but from Aquasteed''s surprise, I guess it''s never a short distance.


    Slowly rising from the sea, she came forward of the four and gracefully thanked them while in their swimsuits.


    He''s younger than Tiara Rose, but his work is very sophisticated and makes him wonder how tall he is.


    "Welcome home, Your Highness Aquasteed. And then... it''s nice to meet you. My name is Isira Pearlant.


    "Oh, I''m home. She''s my fianc¨¦e."


    "... my name is Tiararose Lapis Clamentile. I''m so glad to see you."


    Tiara Rose was agitated by anxiety as she greeted her with a smile, but could not help it.


    Isira Pearlant. The event to meet her, the heroine of the sequel, is the sea. That''s what Akali, the position of the previous heroine, taught me.


    Tiara Rose''s body trembles, as if to the unfolding of the game. I don''t care what I do, I go around unstoppably when I feel anxious in my head.


    "Also, go play. I''ve always looked forward to seeing His Highness Aquasteed."


    "Oh. Soon, be sure"


    ¡­¡­


    And what I hear is Isira''s voice, who seems happy to see Aquasteed.


    Aquasteed smiles back at it too, and the game goes on like he''s leaving Tiara Rose behind.


    - Could I be the villain warrant position for the sequel?


    Fianc¨¦e of the main attacker. What if I say that this is not the role?


    "Shh, sorry...... I''m resting in the carriage for a little while..."


    "Tiara?"


    Telling him so small, Tiara Rose rushed out to the carriage. Act like you can''t hear the worried Aquasteed and run without looking back.


    I ran away. But I don''t want to see those two guys that look like they''re having fun -! I want to go somewhere out of sight.


    What showed up in front of Tiara Rose, who ran through the beach, was the arch where the trees gathered. It was a natural tunnel called the Tree Gate.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "... worried, do you?"


    Walking about inside the tree gate, Tiara Rose, tired, calmed down on the spot. The pounding and spilling voice has a color of anxiety, but I don''t think I should have been there, even if I couldn''t.


    The leaves of the glittering trees shake to comfort such a tiara rose.


    "I can''t believe heroin came out so soon. - But it''s good to know the name of the heroine."


    I have to thank Akali for all this. Because even if she didn''t want to, she gave Tiara Rose information about heroin.


    Keep your back in the trees and sigh deeply.


    Well, what do we do now? As Tiara Rose, I don''t know what to look like back there.


    Fortunately, my eyes aren''t red because I''m not crying. But I don''t really have the confidence to behave well.


    Tiara Rose, a marquis, is good at taking care of herself. But even if Elliot is good, he''ll see through to the phillines he''s been with for years and to the aquasteeds who don''t stop loving Tiara Rose.


    "I''m in trouble......"


    "Are you stuck?


    "Huh?"


    A pleasant voice replies to Tiara Rose''s soliloquy. Nobody''s supposed to be here, but if you look around and see what the hell it''s all about - the fairy showed up.


    Unlike the sea fairies, the green haired forest fairies surrounded Tiara Rose one after the other. He glowed and blessed with glitter as it was.


    "Shh, bless...?


    "What''s your name?"


    "Ah...... I''m sorry, I''m Tiara Rose Lapis Clamentile."


    "Greetings ~"


    "Love it -!


    Many forest fairies show favor with Tiara Rose and rejoice at Tiara''s name.


    How the hell did you get into such a development? And, where I put a question mark on my head, a voice of surprise echoes from behind.


    "I can''t believe the forest fairies don''t like humans, but they bless them -!!"


    "Elliot? Why, here..."


    "Oh, excuse me. As an escort, we held back a little."


    I''m surprised Elliot was nearby, but he certainly can''t leave the princess alone who just came to the exotic country. Tiara Rose thinks of herself impeccably, even though she understands it after a little thought.


    And as Elliot cares, "What''s wrong with you? Was there something you didn''t like?" That''s what I said.


    - Though heroine, I ran away jealous of a girl younger than myself.... I can''t say.


    Even if that''s the event of the game, yes.

 17 2. Welcome Party

    "Tiara, are you tired?


    "Yes, thank you, Master Aqua"


    Slowly stroking her hair, Aquasteed gently hugs Tiara Rose. Tiara Rose stroked her chest down as her anxious mind seemed to fade away.


    I came to Marine Forest and met Isira the heroine. It upset Tiara Rose terribly and made her fear bigger.


    Now, after a 20-day journey, we have reached the Royal Castle of Marine Forest, where we are resting in Tiara Rose''s private room.


    Greetings to kings and nobles are scheduled after tomorrow. Now in free time, it was time for Aquasteed to spoil the anxious Tiara Rose.


    "If there''s anything in it for you, you''re gonna tell me right away, right?


    "Thank you"


    Looking over the room at the crease, Aquasteed wonders if there''s anything missing. But the one street thing is ready, so Tiara Rose shook her head that it would be okay.


    Beautifully appointed rooms are divided into reception rooms, main rooms and bedrooms. The reception room is currently filled and it''s tea time in the main room.


    Calm furniture based on white. Light-colored curtains and more are available, which go very well with the Tiara Rose atmosphere.


    "My room will be upstairs. If you need anything, don''t hesitate to visit."


    "Yes."


    Tiara Rose has to hurry and remember various places because she has not yet grasped the inside of the castle. Busy days go on for a while.


    Then you might not have to think about Isira-like the other way around. With that in mind, I have tea in my mouth.


    "As I told you, there''s a welcome party for Tiara in three days. Of course I have the dress, so put it on?


    What Aquasteed has been preparing for a long time is a water-coloured empire line dress that would look great on Tiara Rose.


    Perfect for the fluffy, adorable Tiara Rose, Aquasteed can''t help but look forward to the escort.


    "For me, a dress? Glad to hear it, thank you"


    "Oh, she''s really cute already."


    "Oh, Master Aqua?


    I look at Tiara Rose smiling happily and hug her as "cute".


    It was hard to calm down on the carriage journey. Because I''m back at the castle, I want to spoil Tiara Rose.


    I mouth my forehead, my eyes, my cheeks, as usual. Even though I have done so many times already, Tiara Rose dyes her cheeks in a shameful light every time.


    The beginner part is cute like that again, and Aquasteed even wants to be more mouthful. Touch your lips to blur and watch Tiara Rose react softly.


    "... Huh!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - What is it, this cute creature?


    Tiara Rose stares softly at Aquasteed, trying to shudder puffy. It''s like a small animal, very much an aquasteed craving for asylum.


    "A year to get married..."


    To the squeaky aquasteed, Tiara Rose puts her neck up. Ask Aquasteed, who said it was a long time ago, what happened?


    "Too long. Even now, I want Tiara to be my wife..."


    "Dear Aqua...... You can''t do this anymore, right? I will be a good bridesmaid to help you. Please wait a little longer."


    "I know."


    Take a big breath and mouth Tiara Rose again. "Mmm..." a sweet exhale leaked from her, tickling Aquasteed''s ear.


    It was a lot of love to get in, Aquasteed. I tasted Tiara Rose''s lips for a while.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    It was the day of the welcoming party while we slowly spent time in the royal castle.


    Sitting in front of a large dresser, Tiara Rose goes on to support the welcome party. Beautifully organized by Filine, the castle woman also supports it.


    The discipline of fun going forward between women also blooms gorgeously in conversation.


    "What hairstyles are popular in Marine Forest? Master Tiara Rose is the star of the evening, so you have to stay in the mood."


    "Now, half-ups are popular among the ladies. Master Tiara Rose is so adorable, why don''t you braid the flowers together?


    "That''s lovely."


    Filine puts Tiara Rose''s hair together and consults with a woman about her hair. showing the exuberance. There was no gap between Tiara Rose pinching her mouth.


    I smiled at the phillines and women who worked hard for me and decided to have them finish what they wanted.


    "Then can we put in a round of deep blue flowers?


    "Deep blue, is it?


    "... with the same color as Aqua''s hair, I thought it would be good"


    The women open their eyes to Tiara Rose, who told them softly. And I immediately said, "That''s a good idea!" He agrees with me.


    Tiara Rose, who had just turned red wondering if she would have been a little bold, but was relieved by the reaction.


    One female officer leaves the room to pick up flowers, and Filine and the rest of the female officers decide on the content of the specific hairstyle.


    "It''s beautiful. His Royal Highness Aquasteed would be delighted."


    "Thank you. I have to try my best."


    "It''s okay. Tiara Rose was a good example of a lady when it comes to socializing."


    As if it were about me, Philine, who talks about "humph". Indeed, Tiara Rose was set as an example by the Lady in Lapis Lazuli.


    So elegant to stand and behave.


    Light water color and pink flowers with a slightly stronger color flavor on the hair. I put in the deep, blue-colored rose of the big wheel that the woman hastily prepared for me there.


    Keep an eye on its rarity. Blue roses are very rare and not so easy to get.


    "That''s... Strangely enough, I was looking for flowers in the garden and this rose stained blue in front of me..."


    "Huh?"


    The woman who brought the rose says she doesn''t even know why.


    Filine leaks her voice "Maybe" to Tiara Rose, who tilts her neck wondering what it means.


    "From the Fairy of the Woods, in a gift?


    "- Huh? But is that what you can do?


    "I read it in a book. Forest fairies say they can grow plants"


    I''m sure you''re right.


    It was the castle ladies who immediately agreed to Filine''s words.


    When I heard the story, none of the castles were blessed with forest fairies. But the princess, who was previously liked by the fairies in the woods, gave it beautiful flowers. That, he says, leaves a description.


    "Well. I''m so glad to hear that. Next time I have to thank you."


    "Right. If there''s anything you like about fairies, we''ll have it."


    Tiara Rose makes me happy with the fairy gift I never thought I''d see. Would it please you to wear a rose of your own colour?


    Softly, Tiara Rose waited for Aquasteed''s visit.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Highly fanfare rings and Tiara Rose and Aquasteed enter the welcoming party venue.


    The King and Queen of Marine Forest have already entered the venue. Others, the nobles who support the country, are invited to glorify the occasion.


    Tiara Rose, the lead actor, heads to the center of the venue as soon as he enters. Thank you along with Aquasteed and be the first to perform the dance.


    Dancing allows everyone to recognize Tiara Rose. That''s the welcome party in this world.


    "Tiara, come"


    "... Yes"


    Aquasteed takes Tiara Rose''s hand and slowly steps into the dance. Let him see the slow movement, the music rings.


    Everyone took that eye away from Tiara Rose, who turned herself round gracefully and smiled happily and danced. Of course, Tiara Rose doesn''t realize that''s happening......


    "Totally. My tiara is too cute to be in trouble"


    "Oh, Master Aqua?


    Aquasteed smiling bitterly as he danced, but seemed very happy. Escort the dance gracefully with your hands on Tiara Rose''s hips.


    Tiara Rose was surprised that someone had never been so easy to dance with.


    "That blue rose I put on my hair is also very pretty. It''s the same color as my hair and I''m going to be illusioned that everything about Tiara is mine"


    "Ah...... But everything about me belongs to Aqua."


    The conversation while dancing is very sweet.


    Tiara Rose nods honestly though to Aquasteed''s words like saying she wants it all to be her own. I can''t wait to be told that while I''m lit.


    - Is this unconscious? Damn, Tiara has trouble flirting with me.


    "... come on, that''s it"


    "Yes."


    At the end of the day, the two of us stare at each other and try to turn our bodies slightly against each other to end the dance. He received a grand applause and Tiara Rose gracefully thanked the lady.


    Taking Aquasteed''s escort, Tiara Rose heads down to greet the king and queen.


    I walked slowly, one step at a time, Aquasteed to calm my loud heart.


    The king, at the end of the red carpet. He sat back in his luxurious chair and awaited the visit of the Tiara Roses.


    The name of the man, king of Marine Forest and father of Aquasteed, is Sotiris Marine Forest, a king who, at the age of 40, is making a big move through this great nation.


    The woman who is the queen and mother is Lavina Marine Forest. Being tolerant of anything, she is also a good understander of Aquasteed.


    On his knees in front of those two, Tiara Rose utters words of joy.


    "We were also very excited about this welcoming party. Miss Tiara Rose, Marine Forest would like to welcome you from the heart."


    "I am so glad to have an adorable person like you on my Aquasteed daughter-in-law"


    "It''s a waste of time. But I''m very pleased. We will learn well for a year so that we can support His Highness Aquasteed."


    Warm and welcoming, Tiara Rose is relieved. I smile softly and look forward very much to the future ahead.


    To do this, you can''t let Isira, the heroine of the sequel, take Aquasteed. Now he must never escape, before the king, Tiara Rose softly swore to his heart.


    But soon, the occasion will come to try that oath.


    It was Isira who came first, before Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, who went to the venue after greeting her.


    Tiara Rose shook her body for a moment, but dressed calmly and thanked the lady. Isira returned it, too, and gave her a beautiful thank you.


    With regard to the engagement of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, the announcement has been made before the two enter. "Congratulations," Isira told me.


    "How about Marine Forest? Would you like to stay at ease?


    "Yes, Your Highness Aquasteed, there is no inconvenience because you are doing so much better"


    "Well. That was good. I want to get along with Tiara Rose more... Don''t hesitate to visit us next time"


    Isira takes care of Tiara Rose and says words, but Tiara Rose of the day really finds herself. I don''t know what to do, I turn my gaze to Aquasteed.


    I immediately saw him nodding with a smile and was slightly dismayed with his heart that this was a visiting decision. A little, don''t tell me Tiara Rose thought you''d say no.


    "Thank you, Master Isira. I''d love to see you."


    "I''m glad. My mansion is facing the sea. So beautiful, stay tuned."


    To Isira''s words, Aquasteed nodded loudly as well.


    "Miss Isira''s sea is Marine Forest 1. Tiara will be delighted."


    "I''m looking forward to that. We don''t have any friends in this country yet, so please stay close."


    "Yes, of course."


    - I don''t want to get too involved, but I''m suddenly getting close...!!


    Faster than expected to get along, perplexing while returning the social dictionary. The approaching of Tiara Rose and Isira would of course increase the chances of approaching Aquasteed.


    I want to keep Aquasteed from attacking Isira, but doesn''t this seem like Tiara Rose is having a meal?


    At a time when Tiara Rose is inwardly sober, Isira shouts, "It''s time -"


    If you look around, there were a lot of nobles who wanted to say hello to Tiara Rose. Not all Isira can monopolize Tiara Rose and Aquasteed.


    With a farewell greeting, Isira followed the occasion.


    "I''ll keep saying hello for a while, but aren''t you tired?


    It''s going to take a lot of time to get all the greetings. Aquasteed cares about Tiara Rose, but she and I are future queens and do bridesmaid training. To this extent, there is no way to raise the roots.


    If he smiled and responded, "It''s okay," the nobleman visited to greet the two of them one after the other.

 18 3. Pure Heroin and Aquasteed

    Three days after the welcome party. Tiara Rose was on her way to Isira''s mansion, rocked by a carriage.


    Moving on from myself to meet the heroine is unhelpful and weighty anymore. But I promised to go play, so I couldn''t help it.


    The air in the carriage becomes heavy without even knowing it.


    Knowing or not such an air, Philine, who was on board, sounded pleasantly loud.


    "The sea facing Isira''s mansion sounds beautiful. Elliot told me that some fish are only in Isira-like waters."


    "Really? That''s exciting."


    - Does the salvation at least mean that Master Aqua is not with you?


    He''s not coming with us because he''s being pursued by the executive.


    You can''t just flag Isira and Aquasteed here. Tiara Rose won''t be able to stand the fact that her actions will make the two of them get along.


    Tarmo on horseback lines up beside him as Filine looks to enjoy the view from the carriage window. "Are you all right?" To a caring voice, "Philine returns," it''s very comfortable.


    "I''m sorry, Tarmo. I asked for this..."


    "No, because I am Lord Tiara Rose''s escort knight. Please tell me what it is."


    "Thanks"


    Running horses alongside carriages is Tarmo, who became the Guardian Knight of Tiara Rose. Glowing silver hair, blue eyes. The disappointing stature makes me ask that you excel as a knight.


    It was originally used as a knight for Aquasteed, but Tiara Rose was named her escort knight for coming to Marine Forest.


    I''m sorry about my knight, even though I was a Knight of Aquasteed because of this. Tiara Rose thought so, but Tarmo doesn''t even think of such a thing as fine dust.


    On the contrary, it is a very honorable position to defend Tiara Rose, who is loved by Aquasteed. Who the hell doesn''t like it?


    "Marine Forest is good."


    "Right. Looks like you''ll be fine for a year and beyond."


    Tiara Rose and Filine smile and rejoice that they are taken care of.


    Then we let it run for about 30 minutes and we got to the mansion.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Dear Tiara Rose! I''ve been waiting for you. Welcome aboard."


    "Thank you for inviting me. Dear Isira,"


    When I got out of the carriage, Isira herself welcomed Tiara Rose.


    Filine and Tarmo refrain from a short distance and do not stand in the way of the Lord.


    But heroin and two are mentally tough. Honestly, Tiara Rose wanted Filine to be next door. I can''t say such selfishness, so I just have to put up with it......


    "We have a tea party on the beach. Come here, please."


    "Thank you"


    Isira prepared it just off the ocean.


    It was no way a blown tea party and a rushed tiara rose, but there was also a solid roof, a reassurance that was beautifully prepared.


    To avoid exposure to the sea breeze, the plants were planted around and also served as a little breezy.


    But more than that, the ocean.


    It''s glittering and I can see the shadow of the fish swimming from a distance. I guess it glows colorfully because of the variety of fish that live in it.


    "As you rumored, it''s a very nice sea"


    "Thank you. If you like, would you like to see it nearby?


    "Absolutely."


    If Tiara Rose speaks to Isira, she will happily get a reply closer. Driven by the urge to see it closer, Tiara Rose nodded quickly and came as close as the water was likely to touch her shoes.


    White sandy beaches, clear waters. And yellow, orange, pink, blue and...... various fish swim. If you look further back, it''s a beautiful coral in sight.


    Isira does business with fish, corals, and pearls.


    Blessed by the sea fairies, she is very good at raising them. Perhaps no one will go out to her right in Marine Forest.


    He is very popular with noble ladies, and he is also active on the front lines as a royal servant.


    Shine your eyes sparklingly and it looks delightfully Tiara Rose. Having seen that, Isira decided to make one suggestion.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, If you don''t mind, would you like to go into the ocean?


    "Huh..."


    - Exactly. I don''t think that''s a good idea.


    When I look at Isira and say what she''s talking about, I panic and wave, "No, it''s not".


    "I can use the magic of breathing underwater with the power of a sea fairy. You can also keep the air in your body, so it''s okay to stay in your clothes."


    "Can you do that? Isira is incredible."


    - That''s the heroine of the sequel, I have everything...


    Can you beat the kind heart heroine loved by the fairy? At the very least, if I had a bad personality like Akali, I would have stayed put. Tiara Rose snuck up and sighed.


    "Oh, but - let''s warm it up with tea before we do. Even though I don''t touch the sea water, it''s water all around me."


    "Right. I brought you some delicious treats, too. Filine."


    "Here it is"


    When Tiara Rose speaks, she softly moves forward with Filine holding a cute box with cake.


    Gently open the box and show Isira what''s in it.


    "Well. It looks so cute and delicious"


    "If you liked it, I''m so glad"


    "Yeah. Very much."


    Isira, smiling like the sun, gives instructions to the samurai who had refrained.


    The cake is served to the tea table after this.


    "Come on, have a seat"


    "Thank you. It''s so nice to have a tea set just off the ocean. I can''t really experience it, so it''s a good memory."


    Isira advances and Tiara Rose takes her seat. And the view you can see from there is so beautiful, I raise my admiration.


    The story then moved on to the subject of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed.


    "So you and His Highness Aquasteed met at the school."


    "Yep. You always care..."


    "Well. So you two are going to be romantic marriages. It''s very nice."


    Ha ha shagga Isira, that sounds fun listening to Tiara Rose.


    Having eaten sweets together or having them escorted. And events on the road from Lapis Lazuli to Marine Forest, etc.


    Either way, she was smiling without showing one disgusting face.


    - What do you mean? Isn''t Isira, the heroine, admiring Aqua?


    Apart from the grinning and laughing Isira, inside the Tiara Rose was full of questions.


    Or don''t you like it? Or maybe I''m not serious just asking how Tiara Rose is doing. Tiara Rose tightens her mind when it''s also important to suspect.


    "... Isila is lovely, so wouldn''t a man leave you alone?


    "Dear Tiara Rose... That''s not true."


    Now Tiara Rose asks Isira, this is her turn to put in an exploration.


    Very neat face, and even the Duke''s house. Fourteen years old and no wonder he''s engaged.


    If it was a game, I would have been engaged to Aquasteed...... now, it''s not a game.


    "... I leave everything to your father when it comes to engagement. I''m fine if I stay in the sea. The fish, the corals, they grow beautifully, right?


    "That''s right. As a nobleman, you have that idea. - But didn''t some men like you?


    "Yeah. Unfortunately, I haven''t even had my first love yet."


    Laughing a little shy, Isira includes tea.


    I couldn''t even feel the way he was lying on his face. Really, he''s an honest good kid. Tiara Rose thinks so.


    I was raised as the Marquis Lady who gave me Lapis, and a small number went out on social occasions. Tiara Rose doesn''t feel uncomfortable at all. Can a 14-year-old girl behave like that - no.


    - This girl really doesn''t know about love.


    Maybe the love was something to grow up with the attacker...... I mean Aquasteed. If that''s the case, it''s best not to let you two get too close.


    The worst development Tiara Rose had in mind is likely to be spared. When I breathed like that, Isira invited me to the sea.


    "It''s time to go to the ocean? Lots of cute fish."


    "Looking forward to it."


    Isira''s magic was cast only on Tiara Rose and Isira. The samurai takes the form of waiting on the beach. Though slightly disturbed, Tiara Rose decided to believe the words Isira had just said.


    If you gently took Isira''s hand, the two were wrapped in a ball of round air.


    "Wow, wow...... whoa!


    and plump, wrapped in a ball of air and sinking into the sea. Next door, Isira similarly wrapped herself in the air and proceeded into the water.


    There it was - exactly, a paradise of fish. Colorful fish swim and beautiful corals shine beneath the sea. Fish came just around the corner and swam around Tiara Rose.


    "You don''t run away when humans come."


    "Yes, I dive into this ocean every day, so I''m good with fish."


    "Well. That''s nice"


    If Isira reaches out softly, the fishes gather at her fingertips to kiss her softly. When you''re like a goddess of the ocean, it makes you sneer.


    "Corals are very nice, too. You''re probably making accessories out of this, right?


    "Yes, I''m glad a lot of you like it"


    A short walk had allowed Tiara Rose to walk freely in the sea.


    Take it, slowly move forward and come all the way to the front of the coral. Red, orange, purple and fish swim around beautiful corals. The sand at the bottom is colorful human de and shellfish.


    "Cute......! I can''t believe you can walk in the ocean like this."


    - Much prettier than the dive I experienced on my trip to Okinawa!


    I want to walk around and my groan and heart bounce to see the various corals. Tiara Rose enjoyed watching crabs and shellfish that were on the coral.


    Isira looked pleased with it, too, and gave Tiara Rose the fish bait she had prepared.


    "Just a little bit, but this brings a lot of fish over. Just be careful, your hands out of this air will get wet."


    "Thank you, Master Isira"


    I''m going to get the bait I just received and just gently get my hands out of the ball of air.


    That way, a lot of fish stopped by Tiara Rose''s hand. Is that a few dozen? They feed me like I''m stuck, and I laugh at that tickle.


    "I''m glad Dear Tiara Rose enjoyed it. I''ll go up first and prepare the tea."


    "It''s a lot of fun, Dear Isira...... Oh, excuse me. I''ll be with you."


    "No. Enjoy. A little bit of bait, right?


    "... then sweeten to your words"


    - Master Isira, he seems like a good man after all.


    Isira goes up to land to prepare warm tea, because Tiara Rose in the sea shouldn''t get cold.


    While dropping it off, Tiara Rose is immersed in feeding the fish again. Lovely colorful fish, it was already healing. Tiara Rose, who loves cute things, even feels like she hasn''t been released from tension in a long time.


    - Something that keeps me calm when I''m with Aqua, but doesn''t make me feel relaxed from time to time. How many times a day have you been kissed - ¡­¡­.


    And so far I remember Tiara Rose turning her face bright red.


    "Oh no! If I did, I''d be ashamed...!


    Unexpectedly remembered being mouthed by Aquasteed, Tiara Rose blushes one person in the sea. "I''m glad no one''s here," he said relieved.


    "But Master Isira is still a sweet girl. From the hair and eyes, it''s impossible to be Japanese. Although it is possible that you will be reincarnated like me..."


    Close your eyes, for a few minutes. Think back to Isira''s actions.


    Was there such a thing as reincarnation? Would you have had knowledge of Japan or of the game?


    "I don''t think so."


    Tiara Rose nodded quietly that she was alone.


    Still, I know I shouldn''t be alarmed. Actually, it''s possible that the actress is reincarnated. That would convince me that standing and behaving perfectly.


    "... is that too much to think about? In the meantime, we''re out of bait, so let''s go back."


    If you were thinking about Isira, time would have passed quickly. When it gets too late, it worries me. That''s what I think, Tiara Rose walks for land.


    Nevertheless, I''m just fumbling because I''m just going to go ahead and take it with a ball of air. The feeling was fun and Tiara Rose was in a good mood.


    But it also smashes and scatters the moment it rises to land.


    Making a pungent water noise, Tiara Rose makes a face to land. Everyone glanced at me, no matter where I was, and it was my favorite dark blue that came into view.


    "... Dear Aqua?


    That''s the look of Aquasteed and Isira, who look like they''re having fun bickering.


    It''s a visit from Aquasteed, the King''s Prince. Isira''s maids and servants don''t realize that Tiara Rose made a face.


    Aquasteed, laughing happily, reaches for Isira''s hair -.


    "No, I don''t want to see it!!"


    Tiara Rose, turn around and crouch in.


    The scene where Aquasteed strokes Isira isn''t very good, but you can''t see it.


    "Why not? Because... So now you''re gonna break between us as a villain''s warrant lady?


    - But wouldn''t Aqua hate me for doing that?


    Is this the power of the game? Can''t we help it? Have the two of them been close for a long time and have they broken themselves in between? Such thoughts circle.


    "... no. I decided not to run away."


    Shaking his head, Tiara Rose makes a loud noise all the time and gets up again. I slapped myself on the cheek with pettine and said, "Okay!" and get in the mood.


    "Tiara"


    Aquasteed, who noticed immediately, calls Tiara Rose''s name.


    But Tiara Rose walks silently toward Aquasteed without responding to it. Aquasteed and Isira tilting their necks wonderfully.


    The look on Tiara Rose''s face, walking in a leaning mood, is invisible from the two of us.


    Just a short walk away, Tiara Rose stopped her legs perfectly. And all the while, I tangle my own arms in Aquasteed''s arms.


    And a word - ¡­¡­.


    "Please don''t leave me alone, Dear Aqua..."


    With her eyes like a discarded kitten, Tiara Rose stared at Aquasteed. He began to look up a little and Aquasteed held his mouth by surprise at its cuteness.


    "No, too cute, Tiara"


    Even though Isira was right next to her, Aquasteed hugged Tiara Rose.

 19 4. Meet the Fairy King

    Tiara Rose was relaxed in her own room during the morning hours about to be late for lunch.


    If asked if he was ill, he would answer no with a subtle face. When it comes to being strong and closest, I''m a little over-thinking and wisdom feverish. - I wonder.


    If nothing was done, Tiara Rose sank herself on the couch.


    It reminds me of my beloved''s low, sweet voice. Aquasteed''s voice, called ''Tiara'', makes Tiara Rose''s body tremble.


    My fianc¨¦e always spoils me when we''re together, not just when we''re alone.


    But at the same time, there''s a lot to do with Isira. As a result, all Tiara Rose''s anxieties are not wiped away.


    Of course, I know that''s the job. Isira also wholesales fish and corals grown in the sea to the castle.


    "... my body, could it be"


    One of these days, jealousy and too much embarrassment to the but too spoiled aquasteed may melt. With that in mind, Tiara Rose closes her eyes.


    The fuzzy sofa gently envelops her body. I''m going to fall asleep as it is, but that might be good again. Leaving herself at home, Tiara Rose decided to sleep a little.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "I''m sorry we had to do this between jobs."


    "No, I don''t mind.... How is this design?


    "Yeah, nice. Looks very good on Tiara."


    During a raucous afternoon, Aquasteed had a meeting with Isira on the terrace of the garden.


    Why on the terrace? The question is, is that not the best reason? Now he had chosen to design hair decorations to send to Tiara Rose.


    "The design of the hair decorations I was wearing the other day also seemed to suit His Highness Aquasteed''s taste... maybe I could arrange a little of that."


    "Right."


    The day Tiara Rose was invited to Isira''s mansion...


    Aquasteed picked up Tiara Rose. But I was just waiting on land for Tiara Rose to be in the ocean.


    In the meantime, Isira was consulting on the ornaments she was preparing to give.


    The only reason Aquasteed seemed to touch Isira''s hair was simply because she liked the hair decoration design Isira was wearing and said, "This design is good too".


    Of course, after that, it was the end that the misguided Tiara Rose could grab and hug Aquasteed''s arm...


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "! Oh, Your Highness Aquasteed?


    "- No, it''s nothing"


    I unexpectedly remembered that time, and Aquasteed''s mouth was bare. Isira softens to that smile, which is unconsciously floated.


    But soon, he concluded that he must have remembered his fianc¨¦e, Tiara Rose. Because what we''re having a meeting right now is a gift for Tiara Rose.


    "Colour, but add one dark blue."


    "Blue, is it? Yes, we have a lovely color for you."


    Immediately, Isira realizes that the blue would be the color of Aquasteed''s hair.


    Even during the welcome party, Tiara Rose had a dark blue rose wrapped around her hair, making that prediction easy.


    - Really, you like Master Tiara Rose.


    If this happens, this country will continue to be cheap. Thinking of it that way, Isira was a little happier too. And at the same time, really, just a little bit... envious, I thought so deep down in my heart.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    It was Tiara Rose who inadvertently witnessed Aquasteed and Isira interacting like that.


    He was taking Tarmo for a walk to make sure he knew what was inside the castle.


    Tiara Rose quickly turned around and dived behind the pillar to ask how the two were doing. Nevertheless, I can''t even hear the conversation because it''s far away.


    "As usual, we''re talking about work."


    "... right"


    A carefree Talmo voice reaches Tiara Rose''s ear. Of course, Tiara Rose thinks so. But I can''t help but be jealous.


    - But he said he was on duty for a day. Besides, you''re usually supposed to be in the office.


    Never, even though I''m not such a clerk on the terrace. And, happy to see some paperwork Aquasteed.


    Sure, there''s paperwork on my desk - lots of design paintings, but unfortunately I can''t see it from Tiara Rose.


    - At work, I wonder if they lied to me. Because I touched Master Aqua''s arm and said I was selfish?


    Of course I said it was work because of Aquasteed''s desire to surprise me with a gift for Tiara Rose, but she doesn''t even think about that in one corner.


    "It''s okay, Dear Tiara Rose. Look, it looks like you''re both going back to the office."


    "... right. Sorry, that was too much of my thinking."


    "No, not at all. If you need anything, feel free to ask."


    "Thanks"


    Sneaking off Aquasteed entering the building, Tiara Rose begins her stroll again.


    The castle was almost remembered, so we headed to the woods behind the castle where beautiful flowers blossomed. Maybe there are flowers that Tiara Rose has never seen.


    It took about 15 minutes to walk slowly to reach the forest entrance behind the castle. The plants up to the waist are beautifully maintained, with colorful and beautiful flowers.


    Sitting on a nearby bench, the fairies of the woods immediately appeared and greeted Tiara Rose.


    "Ah! It''s Tiara Rose!!"


    "Hello, Tiara!


    "Well, hello. You''re still alive today."


    Giggling, the fairies were pleased to see Tiara Rose.


    Watch it smile and refrain from the escort knight Tarmo. It''s like watching from a little distance so you don''t get in the way.


    Fortunately, there are plenty of fairies in the woods under Tiara Rose, so you won''t even be bored.... If you get too close, Tarmo will be stared at by Aquasteed.


    "That''s right. I have cookies. Want some?"


    "Wah, wah, wah! Eat!! ''


    "Wow, Sakuraku!


    "Yummy, daisy ~!


    - Or cute!


    How cute of a fairy to eat cookies looking delicious. Basically a tiara rose who loves small animals and cute things. The fairy liked me, I can''t help but be happy.


    "Tiara, over here, no!


    "What?


    The fairies of the woods pull the arms of Guru and Tiara Rose to take them to the woods.


    Tarmo tried to get close right away but stopped walking right in front of the tree. Apparently, the fairies decided they wanted to show their beautiful flowers to Tiara Rose.


    But by the time you realize that that decision is a mistake, everything will be too late.


    "Beautiful," Tiara Rose replies as she tilts her neck at the spirits pointing to the beautiful flowers.


    But at the next moment, the tree executives cracked to make way for it. It''s a fairy made, treegate.


    Guru gets his hand pulled, but Tiara Rose steps right into that aisle without any doubt.


    "Wow, the leaves here are so glittering"


    "Ahead of here, there''s a king!


    "The King?"


    I look back, wondering what the hell you''re talking about, and speaking of which, I also have to tell Tarmo. It''s not a good idea to put an escort down and step in - that''s what I thought. of, but......


    The entrance that Tiara Rose had already entered was surrounded by trees and the entrance and exit were missing.


    "Huh? Fairies, I''d like to go back once."


    "There''s a king, isn''t there?


    "Over here, no."


    You don''t care about the rushing Tiara Rose, the fairies pull Tiara Rose back.


    "Uh, fairy?


    I''ll call you again, but they''ll just pull you around. In a hurry to figure out what to do, I reached the end of the tree gate.


    It was a big space, and there were a lot of fairies in the woods.


    "Is this...?


    - Are you Tiara Rose?


    Space surrounded by trees. In that place, where flowers glow at the change of electricity, Tiara Rose is called by name.


    Who the hell is it and if you look around, isn''t it a fairy-? A man stood, the same appearance as a human being.


    "King ~"


    "Tiara Together ~"


    A fairy flies into the sky and gathers under a man called the king.


    Slightly bound, long dark green hair. Golden eyes that seem to foresee everything. Rugged and tall bodies are disappointed.


    - Fairy''s, Fairy King of the Woods?


    As for Tiara Rose, she immediately kneels down to the man known as the Fairy King.


    Being a fairy king is obvious, such as which is the greatest or the most honorable Tiara Rose.


    "It''s an honor to meet you. Fairy King of the Woods."


    "... Hmm. Call me Keith. Tiara has always loved the fairies in the woods."


    "Thank you. I''m happy."


    The fairy king, who names himself Keith, instructs Tiara Rose to raise her face.


    And seriously, I look at that face, and I lift my mouth. And I say a word, "That''s funny."


    "Tiara, you - you have an unusual soul"


    ¨D¨D¨D¨D!!


    "Even though it''s so unstable, then my soul is beautiful. I can also snort that these guys like it. Besides, it smells good. Sweet, smells like sweets."


    Knock it off. Keith lifts Tiara Rose''s jaw and peeks into its eyes.


    The kind of golden eyes that foresee everything, maybe they really foresee everything. And Tiara Rose also realizes that she still has cookies.


    Could this be it? And I gently offered Keith the cookies.


    "It''s an honor to compliment you. The smell of sweet treats could be this..."


    "I don''t want to. Keith, and. Call it that."


    "But..."


    "Call."


    "Yes..."


    - What a fairy king I am!


    And, in my heart, Tiara Rose screams. I can''t believe it''s such a thick character. And that''s what I think.


    - Could it be that you''re being attacked?


    The status of fairy king, overwhelming power, and above all, handsome. Keith is definitely convinced Tiara Rose would be the character to be attacked.


    The sequel is Marine Forest and the country where the fairies are. Tiara Rose thought it would no longer be an iron plate to have a fairy king in the target of the attack.


    "I see, cookies? It does smell good."


    "... do you want to have it?


    "Oh."


    Hey, take the cookies from Tiara Rose''s hand. Keith includes them in his mouth.


    Try to taste it slowly, "ho," he exclaims.


    "This is your magic, isn''t it?


    "Ah, yes. I don''t have a lot of magic... but I can put it in a treat. And then things that are good for you, and injuries heal faster."


    "I see. Still, it''s delicious"


    Tiara Rose, a villain warrant position, does not possess enormous magic power like heroin.


    Instead, you can use magic to make sweets that you liked in your previous life. It has special effects and makes those who eat happy.


    It''s not that effective, so it''s about resting......


    "Keith..."


    "It''s Keith."


    "... to Keith, I''m glad you''re happy"


    Keith told me not to stick around. Tiara Rose decided she had no choice but to follow it.


    If Tiara Rose calls it that, Keith laughs satisfactorily as "good".


    "Fairies are free, unlike humans."


    "... Sounds like it. I wish I had lived like a fairy."


    With a bitter smile, I wish I could be like a fairy...... Tiara Rose thinks.


    That way, I wouldn''t have to worry about it. Human love is very difficult.


    "What, are you worried?


    "Oh, no...... Humans thought it was hard to have a lot of clutter."


    "Hmm. Well, it''s Tiara liked by the forest fairies. If you need anything, I can help you."


    Pong. Keith''s big hand can be put on Tiara Rose''s head.


    - I''m feeling a little weak. Embarrassing.


    But Keith''s words were purely delightful.


    The sea fairy hated me, so I was anxious. Though it''s not the sea, I''d appreciate it if the Fairy King could care for me.


    As for being married from another country, even more so.


    "Thank you"


    "Oh. Speaking of which, you''re from another country, aren''t you?


    "Yes, I came from my neighbour, the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli, for my engagement with His Highness Aquasteed, the first prince of this country"


    Gracefully thank the lady and explain to Keith. "Hmm," he nodded, immediately continuing with the words "is that him".


    - I wonder if Keith knows about Master Aqua. Not surprisingly, there is interaction between the Fairy King and the royal family.


    "Because you''re royal, I know for once. But the royal family doesn''t know me."


    "Really?"


    "You must be the next king of this country, right? What kind of guy?


    "Ah, yes.... right. His Royal Highness Aquasteed is very kind, very clerical and very supportive of the people."


    Keith, apparently interested in Aquasteed, asks Tiara Rose, sitting back on the sofa of a sledge and flower.


    There are many good things about Aquasteed, of course. Tiara Rose made Keith hear it and smile that this country is cheap.


    ... Then how long would we have talked about it?


    Tiara Rose and Keith sat back on the couch and talked for hours. Aquasteed, of course, and this country.


    But gradually, Tiara Rose''s anxiety about Aquasteed goes into words.


    "... I know very well that they love me. But there are things that make me really nervous. At the end of the day, I was wondering if they would choose others, not me."


    "Hmm. - Human love is troublesome."


    "... fairy freedom is an admiration for humans"


    Drinking up the tea served by Kokun, Tiara Rose breathes "Phew". And I self-loathe myself for what I''m saying to the fairy king I met.


    Shake your head, Tiara Rose thinks.


    - What time is it?


    I spent a lot of time talking to Keith. Besides, I recall coming to Tarmo without telling him anything. Maybe, even if it doesn''t, it''s a big deal.


    "Wah, me, I''m going home...... Huh!


    Stand up in a hurry and raise your voice, "Where is the exit?"


    Keith laughed creepily when he saw that, "I''ll send you," held Tiara Rose''s hips. "Huh?", the moment he raised his voice - he was moving the place to Tiara Rose''s own room.


    Metastatic magic.


    That''s the fairy king, he uses very difficult magic without difficulty. Tiara Rose is impressed and looks over her room.


    I can''t help but wonder that I''m back in this moment. I try to thank Keith immediately, but it is inhibited by a different voice.


    "Tiara -? Who is the man? Get away from Tiara!


    "-!"


    Aquasteed just walked into Tiara Rose''s room.


    In those eyes I saw Keith, a harsh color floats. I pulled out the sword I was wearing and stuck that cut to Keith.

 20 5. Two Men

    Aquasteed and Keith, both eyes narrowed. It''s like staring at each other is trying to hold Tiara Rose in your hand......


    Suddenly, Tiara Rose takes a breath. Even though I have to solve the misunderstanding immediately and apologize to Aquasteed for worrying me.


    I guess nothing comes up because - the air in the room, it''s tingly.


    "Oh, you''re the Aquasteed."


    Knock it off, Keith looking forward as if to mock it. I don''t make it faint to say that the tip of Aquasteed''s sword is pointed at my throat.


    Aquasteed, surprised to finally see Keith, says again, "Let Tiara go".


    "I look better on you than a guy like this, huh?


    "... Huh!


    I don''t care what Aquasteed says, Keith strokes Tiara Rose''s hair.


    Face like trouble, but Tiara Rose calms down. I guess it was because Keith''s words directed at her were spoken words that didn''t suit the strained air.


    "Please don''t, Fairy King. I am the fianc¨¦e of His Highness Aquasteed."


    "Right. - That''s too bad. Very much."


    Staring at Keith with serious eyes, Tiara Rose conveys her will firmly in words.


    Taking it as a laugh, Keith took the sword off his throat with his hand. Point your gaze straight at Aquasteed.


    - Who the hell do you think you''re pointing your sword at?


    Yes, Keith''s eyes were telling the truth.


    To Tiara Rose''s words, Aquasteed took his breath next. Who the hell would think that a man on this occasion who has spoken of his fianc¨¦e is a fairy king, etc.?


    But there''s no way Tiara Rose would make a joke in this situation. I mean, being a fairy king is a common fact.


    "- I didn''t know you were the Fairy King of the Woods. I apologize for the rudeness with which I pointed the blade. My name is Aquasteed Marine Forest, Prince of Marine Forest in this country."


    "Forgive me, I''m in a good mood right now."


    Aquasteed kneels down to Keith and gives him a thank you.


    There is no doubt that the Fairy King is a more honorable being, no matter how princely he is. Human beings like you on an equal footing, even if they are kings, will hardly be there.


    "But Tiara Rose is my fianc¨¦e. - Too close, I don''t think you have a product as a fairy king?


    "Ah, Dear Aqua!?"


    Upon finishing his greeting, Aquasteed immediately holds Tiara Rose beneath him.


    If you don''t let anyone touch you, I won''t let you go hugging you in my arms. Tiara Rose in her arms, embarrassed and turned her body.


    "What. Much loved, Tiara?


    "... Huh! Guess it''s because Keith did something that made him misunderstand!!"


    He laughs at me, and Keith looks funny.


    I had no idea that a fairy king, himself, had a sword pointed at him. Besides, that''s the next king of this country.


    - This is going to be an interesting country.


    "Well, fine. I''m leaving for today. Tiara."


    "Hey, what...?


    "You can call me whenever it gets hard. Thank you for the cookies, I''ll help you."


    Walking under Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, Keith finally gently mouthed to the back of Tiara Rose''s hand.


    And the next moment - the look scratched out.


    "... Keith?


    "Looks like the Fairy King is home."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Keith disappeared after a metastasis. What was left on the field, of course, was Tiara Rose.


    And - a cold aquasteed with a bit more atmosphere than usual.


    "Oh, um... Huh!


    Tiara Rose hastily tries to open her mouth for an apology, but Aquasteed doesn''t try to forgive it. Hold Tiara Rose silently and sit back on the couch just around the corner.


    Speaking of Tiara Rose, who was held sideways, she is allowed to sit straight on Aquasteed''s lap. I can''t even tell him that I don''t want him to hide the angry air.


    Silence flows between them. But in the meantime, Aquasteed''s hands won''t stop stroking Tiara Rose''s hair.


    "... Dear Aqua"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Speak up and peek into Aquasteed''s face. There was no reply, but I smiled with my eyes toward Tiara Rose.


    - Good. I don''t think they hate me.


    Feeling relieved to stroke down his chest, Tiara Rose was off Aquasteed''s knees trying to make a firm apology, trying to sit beside him - failing.


    "Oh, Master Aqua?


    "No, stay here."


    ".................. yes"


    "I won''t allow you to leave," he said in an unspoken voice. Yes, in a low voice, whispered in my ear.


    I wanted to face it and apologize, but Aquasteed''s jealousy made that impossible. Since there is no choice, Tiara Rose conveys her words of apology in the same position.


    "I apologize for the concern, Master Aqua. Until such time, tell me nothing¡­"


    "... nothing, I wouldn''t be mad at Tiara for that. The fairies in the woods took you, didn''t they? I''m getting a proper report to Tarmo."


    "Oh, did..."


    I''m not angry. Aquasteed did tell him that, but Tiara Rose saw anger in his eyes. Absolutely angry. Besides, I''m in the worst mood ever.


    I''m laughing on the surface but the tone wasn''t as sweet as usual and it was pale.


    Tiara Rose makes another apology, but nothing changes Aquasteed''s attitude. On the contrary, he turned his hand around his hips to further adhere.


    "Oh, Master Aqua?


    Really, Tiara Rose beats faster.


    Though I am in a position to make an apology and not at times. Still, the occasional heart never stops.


    "Tiara is..."


    Meanwhile. Aquasteed''s fingers follow that neck muscle as he whispers Tiara Rose''s name in his ear. Unexpectedly, Tiara Rose''s body trembles.


    "You think I''m angry?


    "... Huh!


    Asked so, Aquasteed gently included Tiara Rose''s ears in his mouth. Smiled to suck on the cucumber, "Hmm," leaks a sweet voice from Tiara Rose.


    Keep following the neck with your lips and mark them red.


    "Aku, sama...... whoa!


    "... Tiara is good at humming me"


    "Huh?


    Keep mouthing to your chest, Aquasteed''s hot gaze tangles Tiara Rose.


    How the hell did this happen? Tiara Rose''s cheeks stained completely red and her breath disturbed a little.


    "Don''t know?


    "Uh...?


    Tiara Rose gets in a hurry for an aquasteed that looks a little lonely.


    I''m pretty sure Aquasteed is angry. But Tiara Rose didn''t know why.


    I apologized earlier for worrying, and they said it was even different. But would I have done anything else to piss you off?


    That''s what I was thinking, and it makes me angry.


    - Could it be that Keith touched me?


    Sure, it doesn''t feel good for your fianc¨¦e to be touched by someone else, and by the opposite sex.


    "Oh, I''m sorry. Keith touched me...?


    "Yeah, that''s right, too."


    There''s that too.


    This means that the primary cause is somewhere else.


    "Damn, you''re jealous."


    ¡­¡­


    "Even though Tiara is mine. Hey?"


    He stroked his cheek and said, "You know what?". Aquasteed asks Tiara Rose.


    Nodding cozily, Tiara Rose replies, "Yes, of course."


    But the primary cause of Aquasteed''s anger remains unknown. How the hell am I angry at you?


    It''s probably something Keith would have to do with, but I had no idea about Tiara Rose.


    "Tiara"


    "Oh, Dear Aqua...?


    "That''s it, what makes me angry"


    "Huh -?"


    - Which the hell is that!?


    They just called me by name, and it seems like nothing in particular could be called a cause.


    Tiara Rose is getting more and more confused, why? and swirls when the question turns in my head. While worried about what to do, Tiara Rose''s body was pushed down to the couch by Aquasteed.


    "I''ll disinfect you, all of it"


    "... Huh!


    Chu, and.


    Aquasteed drops his mouth to where Keith touched earlier.


    Tiara Rose trembles with horror at an unexpected development. No way, it''s not a game, and there''s no way this is embarrassing. That''s what I thought...


    - Yes, this was the world of games!!


    Taken to love, Tiara Rose hid her face with too many hands of embarrassment.


    But that''s also quickly solved by Aquasteed. Make sure to tangle your fingers and sew them into their hands.


    "Cute face, show me more"


    "... Huh!


    He''s mouthed to snap his neck muscles, but he can''t move as he thinks because Aquasteed is up there. Breathe into its backwardness, Tiara Rose manages to let the fever escape.


    "Ugh, Dear Aqua......"


    "¡­¡­¡­ name"


    "Huh?"


    A small voice reaches Tiara Rose''s ear when she calls out Aquasteed''s name. What the hell was that all about?


    Name, name¡­¡­. I rebel in my head and desperately try to find out what that means.


    - What''s causing Master Aqua''s anger, his name? But even though it was Aqua himself who allowed me to call him Aqua nickname.


    That''s what I thought, and I realize.


    - I was calling Keith out. Could it be, so...?


    Aqua wants me to call you out, too?


    The cause that comes to mind instantly is more than anything else a delight for Tiara Rose. No way, because I never thought you were jealous of me for that.


    But... Really, can I call it that? What if we''re alone, though we can''t do that right in front of the public?


    - Can I call you by name, please?


    Had I been able to think so, the rest would have been quick. Because unconsciously, my mouth was open.


    "Ahhh..."


    "... Huh!


    Tiara Rose moisturizes her eyes just a little and makes her look shy.


    But clearly, I called Aquasteed''s name without putting it on. Mumbled from poor lips, its name contains the sweetest ever.


    Aquasteed chuckles as if it were dessert. Keep your lips close to your ears and hug Tiara Rose herself like a treasure.


    "- Correct"

 21 6. Bride Training

    The time has passed 20 days since Tiara Rose came to Marine Forest.


    Even though it hasn''t been a month, that''s already a lot going on. Meet Isira, the heroine, and the fairy king.


    Of course, in between, I had the opportunity to have a tea party with the Noble Lady of Marine Forest as a socialist.


    And what''s about to begin in earnest is - bridesmaid education.


    But Tiararose, the fianc¨¦e of Haltnites, the king prince of Lapislazuli, wears almost every upbringing firmly.


    For this reason, it is the upbringing on Marine Forest that will take place. Things about fairies, things about history. And building trust with my fianc¨¦e, Aquasteed.


    "You have to hold on. I will be the queen of this land..."


    A bed that sinks deeply into a bed of ceilings and beautifully decorated in sight.


    The night went quietly deep, and Tiara Rose closed her eyes to sleep - but she can hardly come to sleep.


    Is that from the anxiety of bride education that is about to begin? Or are you anxious that you can truly be queen?


    That wasn''t even for Tiara Rose, I didn''t know.


    - Dear Aqua. No, Aqua.


    The only thing I remember right before bed is always aquasteed.


    I had been able to summon the fairy king by name Keith, then Aqua when we were alone, and the implicit rule that we shouldn''t give him the honor.


    Aqua when we''re alone.


    Dear Aqua, if only the people close to you are here.


    In front of the public, His Highness Aquasteed.


    "... I''m going to make a mistake one day."


    That''s what I think, and I hit a turnaround with the corn. ''Cause if I didn''t, I''d be happy to snort.


    Tiara Rose was just in a hurry when Keith and Aquasteed confronted each other, but the distance between them narrowed as a result.


    I''m very grateful to Keith for that.


    With that in mind, Tiara Rose''s thinking was going to stop.


    If we don''t hurry up, the bride education starts tomorrow. Tiara Rose slowly closed her eyes again, scolding herself for doing it to.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "... very good. Dear Tiara Rose, you are truly excellent."


    "Thank you, Doctor"


    The word came out of the teacher only a month after he started educating the bride.


    Gracefully courtesy of the lady, Tiara Rose smiles. What has been done in the past month has been narrowed down to social matters. This is unusual speed.


    Courtesy, dance, embroidery and general upbringing. In all of this, Tiara Rose was praised by a teacher once.


    Tiara Rose was honestly pleased that what she had learned as Halt Knights'' fianc¨¦e had not been wasted. Because I thought all of this would be unnecessary because I was going to be deported from the country.


    "After this, we will spend a week learning about fairies"


    "Yes."


    "It''s a commonly known knowledge, but we''ll go deeper than that. Master Tiara Rose will be queen of our country¡­ please learn well."


    With that said, the teacher hands the thick book to Tiara Rose.


    If you turn around, what is written is a general knowledge of fairies. That did say something that was generally unknown.


    It would be very helpful to have this taught over a week, Tiara Rose thinks. We don''t have much information about fairies in other countries.


    - Maybe the information is restricted.


    Then you have to make sure that you have a good range to talk to yourself. Yes, Tiara Rose keeps it in mind.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, you''re very fond of the fairies in the woods. Do you talk to them about anything?


    "Right...... The fairies will come close when I leave for the garden. It''s not like there''s anything to talk about, the flowers are beautiful, that kind of talk a lot. Later, I like sweets."


    "A treat?


    Teachers circle their eyes as surprised by the word Tiara Rose treats. Because I''ve never heard of fairies eating anything before.


    Precisely, human beings didn''t try to give food but they''re right. Of course, there were those who offered food to the fairies, but they didn''t receive it.


    For this reason, fairies were supposedly not eating human food.


    "The fairy in the woods treats...... I am blessed with the fairy of the sea - would you eat it if I gave you a treat?


    "Unfortunately, I do not seem to be liked by the sea fairies. I think it would be a good idea for a teacher to try it out."


    It''s a real shame, Tiara Rose, instead of being liked by sea fairies - even hated. For that matter, the fairies in the woods are blessing me.


    Hearing Tiara Rose''s words, the teacher nodded one and said, "Let''s do that".


    "So long for today - well, Your Highness Aquasteed"


    "Huh?"


    Tomorrow I''ll give you another lecture on fairies. Yes, the teacher tried to tell me, and I saw Aquasteed coming into the room.


    "You''re done," he smiled, apparently picking up Tiara Rose.


    "Yeah. We''re done for the day. Master Tiara Rose was very good, so we finished what we planned to do in six months in a month. The rest of the week ends with a lecture on fairies."


    "Right. Tiara''s very good."


    "Thank you, Your Highness Aquasteed. I''ll do my best."


    A token to the teacher, Tiara Rose escorts to Aquasteed and follows the scene.


    When Tiara Rose wondered where she was going, apparently the destination was like Aquasteed''s office.


    Proceed through the long corridor laid with red carpets and gaze at the decorations applied to the walls on both sides. They''re all beautiful. It''s elegant with plenty of coral, a specialty of Marine Forest.


    "Tiara, this is my office. Let''s talk a little bit about the future."


    "Yes."


    When I entered the room, my seats were properly arranged.


    Tiara Rose takes her seat, prompted by the couch. Across the street, Aquasteed sits, behind Tiara Rose, Tarmo refrains as an escort.


    Elliot prepared the paperwork and seemed to work separately.


    "You can relax, Tiara. There''s only one side here."


    "Yes, Master Aqua"


    Elliot, as well as Tarmo, who is currently escorting Tiara Rose, are also formerly near Aquasteed.


    Still, it''s hard to say not to be nervous about Tiara Rose, who has just come to the bride training. But the care was a delight.


    "When it comes to Tiara''s bride education, I hear you report it every day. Every teacher praised me for being very good."


    "It''s a waste of time."


    Tiara Rose gets embarrassed by Aquasteed, who speaks proudly.


    When it comes to general education such as manners and etiquette, it is only natural for Tiara Rose to do so. So why are we doing this? So much so that I even had the question.


    But the actual lady wears graceful behavior - often she doesn''t understand everything, or even the essence.


    It is difficult to be a lady like Tiara Rose without such a rigorous education from an early age.


    For this reason, the bridesmaid training of a bridesmaid to the royal family is considered to be twice as demanding.


    "I''m thinking about giving Tiara a look at my work for the rest of the time."


    "Master Aqua''s job, is it?


    "Oh. That would be the best way to understand exactly what''s going on in this country, wouldn''t it? Tiara will not be directly involved in my duties after marriage because she will be queen - but what she knows is not a bad thing."


    I see, Tiara Rose thinks.


    Aquasteed performs all administrative tasks such as processing documents and issuing actual instructions, but Tiararose, the Queen, has great opportunities to accompany the inspections, etc.


    If that''s the case, it''s very good to have a normal working situation. What kind of situations will be handled? Because that also changes the way you respond to people.


    Though...


    "I''m just your fianc¨¦e yet. The situation regarding Marine Forest, not to mention that of Aqua, Prince Wang."


    Don''t give yourself too much information to be just your fianc¨¦e.


    And to say so, Tiara Rose opened her mouth, but Aquasteed''s fingers were put on her mouth to say no more.


    Approximately the perplexing Tiara Rose, Aquasteed gives a concise answer: "No problem".


    That is a sign of Aquasteed''s willingness not to let Tiara Rose go.


    - Of course I''m happy with Master Aqua''s trust. But even if it could go according to the game...


    Isira, the heroine, is not likely to be the queen. Think so, but Tiara Rose stopped doing it.


    If you''re thinking about this, you lose fights you can win.


    I scolded myself that everything had to be strong.


    Really, it''s Tiara Rose''s bad habit to get weak when it comes to the game getting involved.


    "I will do my best to help Aqua."


    "Oh. Nice to meet you, Tiara"


    "Yes."


    Thus Tiara Rose was to spend her day studying about fairies and touring Aquasteed''s affairs.


    "But there''s one thing I want you to promise me"


    "Yes, what is it?


    "If you have any problems, talk to me right away. Never carry it alone."


    If I thought it was an explanation of the strict rules, it was simply a concern for Tiara Rose.


    If Tiara Rose nodded honestly, Aquasteed nodded satisfactorily as well.


    But Tiara Rose doesn''t know yet.


    The fact that Isira, a heroine, visits this office frequently for work - ¡­.

 22 7. Forest Grace and Sweets

    Tiara Rose takes classes on the Spirit in the morning and repeats every day in the afternoon that she takes a tour in Aquasteed''s office.


    But I got a sigh without being able to do much to help Aquasteed.


    "Master Tiara Rose is working very hard, isn''t she?"


    "But... Isira says she''s only 14 years old, but she''s doing a good job."


    I calmed my hips on the soft couch and slowly drank out Philine''s brewed tea.


    At this hour of late evening, the castle is quiet and the sound of the wind enters my ear. Tiara Rose liked this hour of waiting for tea at the end of the day.


    And I remember the day.


    We started touring Aquasteed''s errands, and Isira came here every now and then. Every time something I tried to do would be on my chest, but Tiara Rose told herself it was because of her job.


    - But I can''t believe I''m doing my job at 14. I can''t imagine it in Japan.


    I sigh in my heart, and Tiara Rose wonders how I can help.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, isn''t being here enough to help His Royal Highness Aquasteed"


    "Filine?"


    To the samurai''s words, lean your neck. What the hell does it mean to be useful just to be there? "That''s a good place, too," Philine grinned bitterly at Tiara Rose, who really thinks so.


    It is a well-known fact that Aquasteed is drowning Tiara Rose, but the person at the time doesn''t seem very aware of it.


    Just because Tiara Rose is here, Aquasteed is in a good mood, and the butler is in a bad mood.


    I think Philine is cute about her husband, but she''s still in bridesmaid training. Excessive contact would not be very good...... Think of it that way, then hit your hand.


    "Would you like a treat? Could the treats made by Tiara Rose be magical? I think it''s good, like a treat with a fatigue restoration effect."


    "That''s Filine! Well, if it''s a treat, I can help."


    The name suggests, Tiara Rose smiled like a flower candle.


    Then I had to get ready immediately, and Tiara Rose stood up - and, of course, Philine stopped me.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, it''s already night. Can we do it tomorrow?


    "Mmmm...... Well, let''s get up early tomorrow and make it."


    If Filine stops when annoying, Tiara Rose snorts softly and starts getting ready for bed.


    Seeing a groom and a seemingly entertaining husband, I think Filine was good. More recently, there were many spicy words like "Isira was here today¡­".


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Tiara, I''ll give you this."


    Can I eat this?


    "Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!"


    Tiara Rose, who was willing to make sweets, was able to rent the castle''s kitchen first thing in the morning.


    - Actually, it''s a kitchen reserved for Tiara Rose by Aquasteed for her, who likes to make sweets, but no one knows that.


    "Thank you, it looks delicious"


    In the meantime, it was the fairies in the woods who came under the Tiara Rose preparing. I had a lot of nuts and flowers in my hands, and they gave me one after the other.


    I glance at the nuts I receive and flicker to make them into sweet ingredients because of it.


    "What are you going to make?


    "Hehe. Today, cake. The fairies gave me nuts, so I''ll use them."


    "Well, that sounds delicious"


    Philine, who was asking how things were going, also seems to be having fun.


    Filine is a tour because Tiara Rose does the confectionery alone. It makes me bored, but I can''t help it all.


    "You can eat these flowers, too."


    ''Yum!


    "Huh? Can you eat flowers?


    Hearing the fairy''s words, Tiara Rose took one flower in her hand. It is a lovely little flower in yellow and I think it would be very gorgeous if decorated on top of the cake.


    Even in Japan, there were shops that handled cute flowers for food. It is not surprising, then, that there were flowers that could be eaten in this world.


    Plump.


    and Tiara Rose includes the flowers in her mouth intact. I can hear Filine screaming from the side, but I don''t care about that.


    I tried to taste it and swallowed it. "Hmm," Tiara Rose thought, mixing into a raw cream that was on the way to preparing the petals.


    "What are you doing, Dear Tiara Rose..."


    "This is edible. It was sweet, so I thought I''d use it for the cake."


    With that said, I pressed one petal into Filine''s mouth. I accidentally ate it all the time, and "Hir" and Filine raised their voices.


    "Flowers are not food...... they are delicious! Besides, it''s naturally sweet and not bitter at all."


    "Isn''t it?


    Surprised Filine looks seriously at the flowers. I''m surprised to see such delicious flowers. With her on the side like that, Tiara Rose makes up the cake and goes.


    It''s a very cute flower cake with nuts and fruit.


    - Dear Aqua, would you be happy?


    Laughing at ehehe, Tiara Rose thinks she''s very excited to bake it up.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Filine was in despair.


    He dropped off Tiara Rose heading to the office and was about to carry the cake when he saw fit. But that''s where I found it - a fancy cake.


    Apparently, like Tiara Rose, Isira prepared and brought the cake with her.


    In the main kitchen, the Tiara Rose cake I brought. And Isira''s cake. Those two were seated in Deng.


    "I can''t believe this is happening... I didn''t think so."


    Filine faces "Mmm-hmm" before Isira''s cake.


    Unlike Tiara Rose, the cake that a leading chef would have made was a two-step fruit cake. The chocolate is also topped up, and Philine thinks he absolutely likes Master Tiara Rose.


    - Do you want to plant some Tabasco in Isira''s cake?


    No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no Immediately sifting off a bad thought that turned his head for a moment, Filine sighed.


    I really want to do something very, very much, Philine. I don''t like Isira, who''s always clouding Tiara Rose''s face. Of course, I won''t put it on the table.


    "In the meantime, let His Royal Highness Aquasteed eat a cake full of Dear Tiara Rose. Then you can serve Isira''s cake."


    - Okay, perfect.


    Tiara Rose handmade cake. If you add a replacement for each other around the time Aquasteed finishes eating, he''ll eat it all without leaving it.


    Philine, who was even thinking of feeding Aquasteed all one hole, brought the cake into the office in the mood of Run.


    Continue along the red carpet and in a moment you will arrive in front of Aquasteed''s office. Knock with Concon, wait for permission to enter the room.


    Immediately Tiara Rose welcomed Philine and reported happily to Aquasteed that she had prepared the cake.


    "Tiara baked the cake? I''m glad to hear that. Shall we take a break?"


    "Well! Can Master Tiara Rose make sweets? Amazing."


    "Thank you"


    Isira, who had climbed the castle for the meeting, also smiled happily.


    Carefully divide the number of people and serve them with tea. The first thing I said was Aquasteed. I also mouthed the flowers together and nodded at their deliciousness.


    "Yeah. All of Tiara''s treats are delicious."


    "I''m glad it fits Master Aqua''s mouth. The fairy in the woods gave me these flowers and nuts."


    "And this is -- no, I''ll tell you what I think about it later."


    "Yes."


    Perhaps you wanted to mention the magic that Tiara Rose put in. Aquasteed opens his mouth, but says "at night" and closes.


    It''s not like saying it in front of a lot of people, so only Aquasteed and Elliot know it.


    Next door, Isira and Elliot also admired the flavor by mouthing the cake.


    If Tiara Rose is relieved that it was good, the sound of a knock sounds in the room again. If Aquasteed had given permission to enter the room, it would have been Isira''s maid with a fancy cake who showed up.


    "... Huh!


    Filine takes her breath by accident. I didn''t expect that cake to come out here. Drop your shoulder wondering if you should have hidden it from me.


    But I brought it with me, so I can''t help it. Isira looked like that at first, but Aquasteed asked her with a gaze and opened her mouth.


    "It''s a new piece of cake that our chef thought about. There are also Tiara Roses these days, so I thought it would be sweet. But the timing didn''t seem right..."


    "Did you?"


    "Never mind," Tiara Rose smiled gently at Isira, who seemed sorry.


    Rather, as a tiara rose, it is a welcome. I''ve loved sweets since my last life, so I wanted to tell you more and more.


    The luxurious two-step cake made Tiara Rose very exciting.


    "It''s a very nice cake. I love sweets."


    Tiara Rose, smiling, includes Isira''s cake in her mouth. The fluffy cream cake went very well with the tiara rose.


    I finished eating satisfactorily and drank up a cup of tea.


    "Tiara really eats sweets happily. As much as I''d like to see it all the time."


    "Yes, I will bring you sweets again."


    "Ah..."


    Aquasteed and Isira tell me, Tiara Rose gets so embarrassed. Would you have eaten so happily?


    I''m relieved and relieved that nothing happened to Filine, who was holding back behind me.


    Aquasteed also ate Isira''s cake, and there was no tie-in between Tiara Rose and Isira''s cake.


    Of course, it was Filine who was hanging out with me...


    "But on a nut cake, both fruit cakes are luxurious. Which do you prefer, Master Aquasteed?


    "...... Huh!!"


    It was Elliot who dropped the bomb over a relaxing cake.


    Tiara Rose and Isira took a breath and turned their gaze toward Aquasteed. The two people who seem anxious, sometimes.


    Which cake will be chosen for Aquasteed. Expectations and anxieties. I don''t want to hear it, but I do.


    - Of course, it''s up to Master Tiara Rose''s cake!


    Filine is the one who''s so sure of winning those two.


    I don''t think I''d choose Isira''s cake over that much drowning Tiara Rose cake. Besides, the cake prepared by Tiara Rose is handmade with magic.


    "... right"


    But Aquasteed is hard to come up with an answer.


    The answer is not Tiara Rose. But Isira is the Duke''s Lady of this country. It''s not that easy to say which cake is better.


    I wish I could answer that briefly, but my status as Prince Wang of Aquasteed will not let it go free.


    "... what, Tiara tastes better without worrying"


    What sounded unexpected was the voice of Keith the Fairy King. He suddenly appeared next to the wagon on the cake, holding Tiara Rose and Isira''s cake in his hand.


    Apparently, he took a bite of each and gave me a decision as to which was better. Returning Isira''s cake to the wagon, Keith only flattened Tiara Rose''s cake.

 23 8. Forced Events for Sequel Games

    Beautifully furnished rooms feature calm lights.


    After placing the paperwork on his desk, Aquasteed confirms Elliot''s plans for tomorrow - but he glances at Elliot before doing so.


    "Don''t try to clean it up on your own"


    "Do you still eat it? Well, fine..."


    Elliot, a squire, looks at Aquasteed sitting on the couch as if he was frightened. "Eat," Aquasteed replied, a nut cake made by Tiara Rose during the day.


    Aquasteed that doesn''t usually eat very sweet things, but if it''s that my dear Tiara Rose made it, the story is different.


    If you use a fork and take a bite, your face will melt "delicious".


    "Totally. Then soon enough I''ll have something to say that Dear Tiara Rose''s cake was delicious."


    "... you. Miss Isira''s mood needs to be kept in good shape. Even more so when you''re in the castle."


    "That''s true, though."


    Elliot understands, but she can''t help but worry about the anxious eyes Tiara Rose sometimes shows.


    And Isira''s mood is heavily related to the existence of a fairy. Isira, much loved by the sea fairies, whose emotions are transmitted directly to the fairies.


    When Isira gets grumpy, the spirits of the sea also get rough. Happiness, on the contrary, will bring grace to the sea, and the country will be greatly enriched.


    That''s what the sea fairy loves and is the heroine icilla of the sequel -.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Ahhh! Nice guy stills dripping water too!!"


    Tiara Rose, who shouted her bedtime words, accidentally opened her eyes and jumped up. The time is still midnight, the darkness of the night when the morning sun does not rise.


    just woke my body up because I remembered the fact that I had completely forgotten.


    - Nice guy Still dripping water too.


    This is the only sample stills released shortly before Tiara Rose died in her previous life.


    It''s an event where Isira and Aquasteed are walking by the sea, and Aquasteed, sheltering Isira who was about to fall, falls to the sea and flashes the water.


    I recall it being written as "a good man who drips water too".


    "How could I have forgotten the existence of such a lovely still... Dear Aqua, you look great."


    I only wake my body out of bed and breathe "ho..."


    Recall the stills inadvertently and at the same time remember the usual aquasteeds. Always spoiling Tiara Rose gently, he''s such a good-looking man to himself.


    "I wonder when the event is. It should happen when you go to the beach..."


    Tiara Rose doesn''t know what time that event will happen because Still was just released.


    But so far, there are no plans to go to sea on Aquasteed''s official business. And while I''m relieved, I wonder what about private people.


    Aquasteed, who works like every day, doesn''t have that many days off. Plus, if you have time, you always come to Tiara Rose.


    Because I''m free, it''s hard to imagine Aquasteed going to the sea without telling Tiara Rose anything. No, it can''t be.


    "In the meantime, let''s keep track of our plans"


    If there''s anything like going to the ocean, I''ll do everything I can to stop it. If it''s official business that I can''t take off, I think I need to do enough to stop Isira at all...


    But the other Isira is the Duke''s Lady of this country. Though he gave Lapis, Tiara Rose is a marquise of another country. It would be hard to get out strong.


    "... worst of all, let me go about absolutely"


    - I can''t leave Isira and Aqua alone by the sea!


    That is absolutely all.


    Now, with the intention of working absolutely hard, Tiara Rose dived into bed to sleep again without excitement and cold.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Huh?"


    "Yeah? We''re going to inspect Miss Isira''s sea."


    At midnight, what Tiara Rose feared... was just about to become a reality thing now.


    What the hell is wrong with you when you say you have never talked about that before? When I asked Aquasteed why I was anxious, he said, "They''ve created a new species of coral."


    The sea of Isira, loved by sea fairies, is home to many colorful corals and fish.


    As Aquasteed speaks, new species of fish and corals are also born for a certain period of time. It''s too convincing a reason, but still makes me think Tiara Rose doesn''t want me to go.


    I don''t want Isira to see a nice guy dripping water. He wants to be alone - that''s what he wants.


    "What''s wrong with you?


    ¡­¡­


    Worried about Tiara Rose, who stood still, Aquasteed slowly let her sit on the couch.


    At present, there is only Tiara Rose in his office. For this reason, Aquasteed is in a good mood to be able to spoil the Tiara Rose in full.


    But if you look at the look on Tiara Rose''s face that got cloudy, it doesn''t work either. I wonder what the hell gave her worries.


    "... no. My selfishness."


    "Say it. Tiara can tell me more about herself, but she doesn''t sweeten me at all."


    "That''s because we can''t inconvenience Master Aqua"


    Aquasteed also sits down next to Tiara Rose and strokes its head to spoil it okay. "I don''t need to be reluctant," he grinned bitterly.


    I definitely need to let this event happen in the middle of the night - that''s what I had just sworn in, but Tiara Rose still doesn''t want to get in the way of Aquasteed''s administration.


    I shake my head when I sieve that''s the idea that the tension in the middle of the night has caused me to wake up.


    But it''s Aquasteed who won''t let you do that.


    "Look, why don''t you say it right?


    "... but Master Aqua is on official business, isn''t he? That''s mine."


    "No more."


    Hey, and. Aquasteed''s fingers touch Tiara Rose''s lips. Aquasteed implies that no further excuses are needed.


    - Shy!


    Aquasteed''s fingers push into the fuzz so that he enjoys the feel of his lips as they are. "I won''t stop you until I tell you," Aquasteed said, sounded like a lot of fun.


    Tiara Rose tells her that she doesn''t want her mouth open right away, that it shouldn''t stay like this.


    "Don''t you want me to go to the ocean?


    "Yes. - But this is my selfishness"


    "... Huh?


    Aquasteed tilts his neck as he dyes his cheeks and sees Tiara Rose nagging a little.


    I thought you might be jealous of Isira''s relationship. I thought you were going to have such a cute snack not to go see Isira.


    However, what Tiara Rose asked me was slightly different.


    - Not to Miss Isira, the sea?


    That means it''s good to go to Isira''s mansion, but don''t go to the sea. Aquasteed didn''t know what the hell Tiara Rose meant to say that.


    I also thought you wouldn''t want me to go to the ocean because the sea fairy hates me - but that wouldn''t be possible either.


    Tiara Rose, who is going to be queen, is very willing to study about fairies. I don''t think it would be very good to make a rejection because of the recommendation.


    No way there''s going to be a game event! And so on, and Tiara Rose can''t possibly explain it.


    Apparently, I''m not going to say a clear reason. Look at Tiara Rose, but Aquasteed can''t help but conclude.


    "Let''s stop going"


    "Huh -?"


    "I''ll leave the new species of coral to Elliot. I''m more important to Tiara."


    If you read the report, Aquasteed would tell you that nothing happened.


    There have been particularly many butlers lately and I thought they were making Tiara Rose feel lonely. Aquasteed. This much selfishness just seems cute.


    "Dear Aqua, Uh, well... thank you."


    "- Yeah. Sweeter. If you get lonely when I''m unaware, come right away."


    "Yes...... Huh!


    Gyu, Tiara Rose hugged Aquasteed, who was sitting beside her. I think Aquasteed is happy to hug it and try to make more time for the two of us.


    Slowly stroke Tiara Rose''s cheek as it is, and soften her jaw with her fingers. Aquasteed brings his face closer as he mouths it - but the noise of a knock sounds indoors, even in disgust.


    "...... Huh!!"


    It was Tiara Rose who surprised and quickly let her go. If anyone saw this place, I was ashamed and confident I was pulling into the room.


    On the contrary, Aquasteed regretted and found himself irritated by the sudden visitors. "Go ahead," she said, encouraging her to enter the room, and it was Isira who put her face on.


    Excuse me, Your Highness.


    "Miss Isira... Sorry, Elliot will accompany you on your inspection today."


    "Well, you are. Yes, sir."


    Without moving Aquasteed''s rejection, Isira acknowledges. But that Elliot is currently out of his seat and is not in the office.


    Tilt his neck and said, "How soon will you be back?," asks Isira.


    "Probably will be back soon - yes, shall we go along the way? Tiara, come too."


    "Dear Aqua?


    "Elliot is going to the Knights, but along the way there is a beautiful rose garden. It would be a change of mood, wouldn''t it?


    Tiara Rose and Isira immediately agreed to Aquasteed''s proposal.


    The roses raised in the royal castle are very brilliant and very popular with the lady. Tiara Rose was so happy that Aquasteed invited her.


    Isira is with me, but I''m more than happy to take care of Aquasteed. I also thought that if Elliot and I were going back to the mansion, we could be alone with Aquasteed afterwards.


    "Shall we go then? I''m sorry I put Miss Isira through so much trouble."


    "No, because I, too, really like roses."


    "That''s good"


    Dust and smile, Aquasteed walks escorting Tiara Rose.


    Isira walked behind it and came to the garden where the roses bloom as the three of us surrounded the fountain.


    "Wow, beautiful"


    "It''s beautiful..."


    Tiara Rose and Isira raised their exclamation and were found in the beauty of that rose.


    A fountain molded with the sculpture of a goddess, a colorful rose that encloses it. Pink, yellow, red and it entertained Tiara Rose''s eyes.


    If I put my face closer, it smells sweet, and I get drunk by accident.


    "Glad you like it"


    "I have more opportunities to see corals than flowers, as long as I''m kind of embarrassed to be a lady."


    "Master Isira is growing a very beautiful coral. I think you could be more proud."


    I can''t believe you''re in the ocean more than looking at flowers. I think Tiara Rose should be more proud of Isira for saying it that way.


    - It''s the heroine of the sequel, so I guess the basic specs are high, of course.


    Still, it''s only with her efforts that Isira has now. It''s something to be proud of, and it''s not something that anyone can easily imitate.


    Of course, Tiara Rose has also been educated more rigorously than necessary as a courtier and as the queen of Lapis Lazuli. And I can''t believe I don''t like Isira.


    "Thank you. Master Tiara Rose is very kind.... Ah, this is a white rose"


    "It''s nice to have colors, but white roses are beautiful too,"


    "Yeah, and the white looks great on Dear Tiara Rose''s honey pink hair."


    Usually, an adult Isira shakes when she sees a rose in a year-to-year fashion. When it looked absolutely good on Tiara Rose, I even said happy words.


    But at the next moment, Isira, stretched out to see a slightly higher rose, collapsed - falling toward the fountain.


    "- Miss Isira!


    "Yikes! Dear Isira!?"


    It was Tiara Rose who screamed in surprise.


    But what moved faster than that was Aquasteed. The moment I saw Isira falling in, I ran out and sheltered Isira with it.


    With a big blister in place, Aquasteed falls into the fountain. Fortunately, did Isira not fall into the fountain?


    "His Highness Aquasteed...... Huh!


    "Dear Aqua!


    A sheltered Isira immediately kneels down to the edge of the fountain and asks Aquasteed whether it is cheap or not. Tiara Rose also rushed right over, trying to speak up if she was okay - her body solidified, as if she had stopped breathing.


    - Nice guy who drips water, too.


    By the back of Tiara Rose''s brain was one still.


    Midnight reminded me of an illustration of a good man who drips water too. Aquasteed, who woke up from the fountain, looked a lot like the stills.


    If I recall well, Aquasteed now wore the same clothes as that still. And the way the water dripped up his forehead was exactly with Still.


    "No... The power of the game is, is the event absolute? I can''t do that?


    You weren''t supposed to go to the beach, but the game event happened.


    With helpless thoughts, Tiara Rose burst into tears that seemed to overflow. I tremble wondering if I can''t change the flow of the game myself.


    - No, if I stay here like this, I''m gonna cry!


    Leaving wet aquasteeds and caring Isira on the spot, Tiara Rose runs out at all costs to get off the spot.


    Aquasteed''s voice calling Tiara Rose in the back caught my ear sweetly - ¡­¡­.

 24 9. Caught Tiara Rose

    In a room where the light of day plunged through the window, Tiara Rose was depressed by one.


    Instead of avoiding the compulsive events of the game, they escaped Aquasteed and Isira in front of them.


    Even though I understood I had to do this with my head, when I saw the two people who actually had the event I didn''t either......


    "How can I be strong?"


    - I wonder if Aqua''s mind is still directed at me.


    During the event of the game, will its heart even turn to Isira, who is a heroine? That''s what I couldn''t help but be anxious.


    "But I don''t know what the game is about. So all I can do is look hard at Aqua himself."


    I could remember this event by accident, but I really don''t know anything more. If you''re an acari who has metastasized as a heroine in the previous one, you know, but I don''t think you should.


    Of course it would be in Tiara Rose''s favor if you had any information on the game, because then you can''t look straight at Aquasteed himself.


    "I''m fine, because Master Aqua is looking at me"


    Tears crept into the words I tell myself. But not to spill, Tiara Rose looked up all the time.


    If you indulge, your eyes are unwittingly hidden to envelop you from behind.


    - Huh?


    If you harden yourself up about what the hell is going on, you''ll hear a laugh coming from behind Tiara Rose.


    Apparently, that''s the hand, and the killer also found out with a laugh. Tiara Rose turned momentum and called the name of the person who had been blindfolded.


    "... Keith!


    "What, is he making me cry again?


    "No, sir."


    Deep green hair touches Tiara Rose''s cheeks saggily and tears stop at the tickle.


    And while I remember my anger at the sudden appearance, I sigh that I won''t be able to say anything to the Fairy King. I''m kidding, but Keith is the noble king of fairies.


    Denying Keith''s words, Tiara Rose mumbles her face.


    "But your heart''s crying, huh? If it''s hard, you can come to me."


    "... nothing, I wasn''t made to cry. ''Cause I''m just taking it personally."


    "As always, humans are troublesome."


    Keith, who is only free, doesn''t listen when Tiara Rose suddenly tells her not to come to the room. I worry about Aquasteed, so it''s not Tiara Rose''s intention to be alone.


    "Keith is still free."


    He laughs when he dulls, and Tiara Rose prepares tea for now.


    I don''t know if human tea fits Keith''s mouth, but it wouldn''t be a good idea not to entertain him.


    "It smells good," Keith nodded contentedly as she poured tea into the teacup as she stood hot and hot. Apparently he likes tea, and Tiara Rose is relieved.


    "Fairies like tea, too."


    "Oh, especially the fairies in the woods. Naturally blooming flowers make very good tea. Next time, I''ll be thankful."


    "Thank you"


    The tea available in Tiara Rose''s private room is prepared by Aquasteed of course the kind she loves, as well as various kinds.


    So that she can relax a little so that she can stay free of anything.


    - The tears seem to have caught on.


    "... Huh!


    Drinking tea, Keith peeks into Tiara Rose''s face. I laughed with satisfaction and took Tiara Rose''s hand as it was.


    I don''t know what the hell is going on, Tiara Rose looks at Keith with a question mark on her head. Keith, who honors his free existence and self, always behaves suddenly.


    "In the meantime, go"


    "Huh -? Go, where?


    Keep pulling Tiara Rose toward herself for a long time, and Keith uses the magic of metastasis. Without, of course, accepting Tiara Rose''s approval.


    - And shortly afterwards, the sound of Aquasteed knocking on the room following him sounds.


    I was worried about Tiara Rose, who ran away all of a sudden, and I went to my room because I couldn''t find her.


    "... aren''t you there?


    The pompous and leaky Aquasteed voice echoes in a shimmering, quiet hallway. But the knight escorting the room says, "Welcome home".


    - Are you crying?


    My dear princess doesn''t do much to sweeten, and sometimes she is a marquis in another country. Very often she shys away. I would love to protect it Aquasteed, but Tiara Rose is excellent, so I don''t really show it on the table.


    Speaking a word, "I''m coming in," Aquasteed enters Tiara Rose''s private room where no one else is.


    Shin, and. Tiara Rose room quieter than hallway.


    If you look surprised, still hot tea. Given the position placed on the desk, it is hard to imagine that Tiara Rose was drinking while sitting.


    "... Fairy King, huh?


    Coming to an immediate conclusion, Aquasteed bites his lips tightly. Undoubtedly, it turns out that the Fairy King took Tiara Rose away.


    Because of the use of metastatic magic, he decided that there would be no appearance of Tiara Rose in the room, and Aquasteed left the room to prepare to take him home.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Tree gates made to be surrounded by forest trees. Behind it is the castle of the Fairy King.


    Colorful flowers blossom, as if they were welcoming Tiara Rose. The fairies creep through between them, surrounding the fairy kings with kirakira.


    "That''s Tiara ~!


    "King, welcome back."


    "What''s up ~?


    Once again, the fairies of the woods are welcoming Keith home from the transfer. And in its arms, there was the figure of Tiara Rose.


    Tiara Rose is the one panicking in a fun atmosphere.


    "Keith, what are you talking about? Awesome!


    "Don''t bark like that."


    Tiara Rose stuffs Keith for a metastasis that has passed too suddenly.


    Just like last time, we haven''t told Aquasteed anything. Tiara Rose is in a hurry if we can''t make the same mistake twice.


    Tell him I want him home right away, but Keith shakes his head.


    "I guess you haven''t noticed, Tiara. You look terrible. - Sleep and rest a little."


    "Well, that doesn''t matter......"


    I''m not doing anything.


    "Sleep for now," Keith opens his mouth, putting him to bed with Bosun. Following that, the fairies also asked, "Nebu Soku? '''' Enemy of your skin! ''and sheets Tiara Rose.


    "Ah, uh... I''m happy to take care of you, but I''m fine."


    "But, Tiara, my eyes are red!


    "I''ll give you this flower ~!


    The fairies say ''no'' and tell Tiara Rose to rest. My eyes are red because I did fall asleep and because I wept.


    It''s a shock that the event has happened, and I''m not feeling much better.


    "... thanks. But I will rest in my own room. So let me go."


    "No. You know the fairies in the woods are a mess, right?


    "Keith, but even for me..."


    Pong and Keith gently place their hands on Tiara Rose''s head. As soon as he did, Tiara Rose''s vision was covered in darkness and he let go of consciousness.


    Keith''s voice, gently low, plays "Rest for a while".


    "... sooo"


    "I didn''t know it would be so easy to sleep because of how defenseless you are. How hard was it..."


    With Tiara Rose lying on her side, Keith gently lets her lie down to bed. Now I caressed that forehead gently, saying I should take a rest.


    King, Tiara, what''s wrong?


    "I''m just a little tired. When you wake up, play with him."


    "Huh!


    Geez, the fairies in the woods lie down with the sleeping tiara rose. Apparently, taking a nap, Keith decided to let him like it.


    "... at all, take care of"


    Keith takes one breath and leaves the room behind.


    There is nothing in particular to take care of Tiara Rose because the fairies will not be able to connect.


    - Loved by the fairies of the woods, My Lady?


    In this Marine Forest kingdom, three kinds of fairies live.


    Forest fairies, sea fairies, sky fairies. There is a fairy king in each of them, who sums up his race.


    Fairy blessings can be given to people whom the fairies like.


    Nevertheless, the most human-friendly is the sea fairy. Next, the Fairy in the Sky. And finally - The Fairy of the Woods.


    Not much for the most whimsical forest fairies to show up before humans. Not to mention the fact that the fairy king shows up before him.


    "Surely the sea fairies'' favorite was a man named Isira? Humans are troublesome, but sea fairies are troublesome."


    Nevertheless, it''s not like Keith would do anything to another species, the sea fairy.


    The sea fairies have a very strong obsession with what they like. Previously, when a girl loved by a sea fairy met her terrible eyes - the sea was red and she had mourned and mourned it.


    The fish disappeared and the coral decayed. Since then, the kingdom of Marine Forest has been loved by fairies and treated with great caution.


    "When was that, hundreds of years ago...?


    Don''t feel like it wasn''t recently, Keith stops to think back. Because I thought it was a hassle.


    But it is true that because of this, the fairy of the sea loves it and places its specific weight on humans. Other than that, there have been no serious incidents.


    Especially since the fairies in the woods don''t obsess with humans that much more.


    "The next king, Aquasteed? Can nations, women, forests, seas, skies, protect everything?


    How many kings have done it before?


    It is only by being recognized by all fairy kings that we can be considered true kings of Marine Forest. Speaking of which, you''ve only had one in the past, Keith recalls.


    I grinned and moved under Aquasteed.

 25 10. Declaration of War

    The Royal Castle library has a forbidden library accessible only to royalty.


    There are numerous books about fairies there, which have been handed down to generations of royalty -.


    "... the throne of the Fairy King of the Woods,"


    "Master Tiara Rose said you were there?


    "Eighty-nine out of ten, I guess so"


    In a shimmering place, the voices of Aquasteed and Elliot echo.


    Down the spiral staircase leading down to the basement, it is a small room. It is commonly said that the librarian has a space to take a break, but the actual purpose is in addition.


    Down that far, Elliot stepped back and refrained behind Aquasteed.


    When Aquasteed put his hand against the wall, it was the magic formation that showed up.


    Elliot stands by because only royalty can enter from here on out.


    "Take care, Master Aquasteed. I regret that I can''t go with you."


    "It''s the rules. I have no problem."


    One nod, Aquasteed stepped through the magic formations into a hidden forbidden library.


    A little dusty there, no one seemed to be stepping in for a while.


    The only reason I visited here was to get Tiara Rose back from Keith the Fairy King.


    Since only valuable books are kept in the forbidden library, their absolute number is not high. From a bookshelf edged with gold, Aquasteed gently took something about the fairy.


    "... if I had been blessed by the Fairy of the Woods myself, I might have made it right under the Fairy King"


    It leaked pompously. That''s Aquasteed talking to himself.


    The throne of the Fairy King is reserved for the forest, the sea, the sky, each. That''s where you get it, the fairy king.


    Who would have thought that Tiara Rose, from another country, would be liked by the Fairy King of the Forest, etc. Of course, Aquasteed didn''t think about it either.


    No one would anticipate a tour with the Fairy King, even if he would ever be blessed by the Fairy.


    For that reason there was a rush in him.


    If Tiara Rose gets her eyes on the Fairy King, what should I do? It''s the kind of situation that''s already been eyed in the first place, but the last line hasn''t been crossed.


    "The Fairy of the Forest is blessing Tiara, but the Fairy King is not. But is it just a matter of time...?


    The fairy gives blessings to those who like it.


    As Tiara Rose is blessed by the Fairy of the Forest, Isira by the Fairy of the Sea. But fairy kings don''t bless so easily. That''s as long as it''s not even a favor.


    "... damn, where. There must be a literature that describes the path that leads to the Fairy King of the Woods."


    Hurry, but turn the book slowly. Fast and impending thoughts rush Aquasteed. The books stored for years were so mellow that the messier they were treated, the more likely they were to collapse and fall apart.


    I would make time and consider it necessary to write a new one, but I don''t have time to do that right now.


    "Even if we can''t help but describe the sea a lot, there are too few forests..."


    Historical kings liked by fairy kings in the woods are never many. But one must have existed.


    Aquasteed follows the written letter as he indulges in a strange feeling.


    And on the closest page, I discovered what I was looking for. The path to the throne of the Fairy King of the Forest is connected from the Royal Castle - and was described.


    "From the castle...? I know all the hidden passages, but there shouldn''t have been one."


    - Where the hell is it connected from?


    Proceeding with the reading, it was written that it was the Queen''s private room.


    Why would Aquasteed look at such a place? But what an obvious reason. The royal family liked by the fairy king must have been the queen.


    I don''t know if that''s Keith or the former fairy king. But Aquasteed has one thing to do when he finds out where it is.


    Return immediately, from the hidden passage to the throne of the Fairy King.


    That''s what I think. I turn around and try to run out - but that was thwarted by Keith''s emergence.


    Deep, flowing green hair, golden eyes that seemed to foresee everything, spread across Aquasteed''s vision.


    "Fairy King!


    "... hey. You''re desperate."


    "Because you did something to take away my queen, didn''t you?


    - Come on, give it back.


    Aquasteed sees the king of the fairies, a noble being, without concern. But that tone is never the only thing that gives a crap.


    "Well, I didn''t even mean it at first. But I''ve changed my mind."


    He laughed and said, "The fairies are on a whim, aren''t they?," Keith says, kidding.


    As if you don''t care about Aquasteed or anything. No, I don''t actually care.


    "Please don''t be ridiculous. - She''s my fianc¨¦e."


    "Oh. Nothing, I''m not kidding"


    "... Huh!


    To Aquasteed, who quietly raises his voice of restraint, and still Keith doesn''t care. I''m not kidding. Whether the tone is serious or whimsical - based on the voice color, I can''t judge.


    Keith''s eyes narrowed so tight, he turned to Aquasteed.


    "Tiara. - I''ll take him."


    "Don''t be ridiculous!


    Quiet, but heavily pressured, Keith''s voice. It sounded like a shimmering forbidden library, and at that moment its appearance scratched off. Keith made the transfer from the spot.


    Forgetting the tone, Aquasteed''s hand stuffed to Keith grabs the universe and grabs the air.


    Bite your lips tight and stare at where Keith has been.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Please stop, Your Highness Aquasteed!


    "The Queen is absent for official business."


    "It''s an emergency."


    Immediately after leaving the library, Aquasteed took Elliot to visit the Queen''s private room. But unfortunately, the lord of the room was absent.


    The queen''s maid or lady tries to stop her from saying "no," but Aquasteed can''t afford to wait for it.


    Right away, but we have to go under Keith.


    "Your Majesty has already been contacted."


    "Dear Elliot, but..."


    Unlike usual, Elliot explains to the samurai instead of Aquasteed who doesn''t say much.


    But neither the samurai nor the knight guarding the entrance to the private room look very good. Because we are not getting any kind of notification directly to ourselves.


    Nevertheless, Aquasteed is the Queen''s real son. Nor were the samurai able to make a very strong refusal.


    It is, of course, true that Aquasteed contacted the Queen, her mother. But it is also true that the circular has not reached the samurai.


    Because Aquasteed doesn''t have enough room to wait for time to be notified.


    "All responsibility lies with me. Open the door."


    "His Highness Aquasteed...... Yes, sir."


    Aquasteed, who ordered the knight to open the door, immediately enters the room. The destination, of course, is the passage that leads to the throne of the Fairy King of the Woods.


    Behind you, Elliot goes after Aquasteed, even as he bows his head, "Excuse me."


    "... what the hell happened"


    "Yeah. But I wouldn''t let His Highness Aquasteed do this senselessly. Let us check with Her Majesty the Queen."


    The samurai and the knight consult, and the spot is followed early enough for one to confirm.


    Without the permission of our own Lord, the Queen, we have allowed Aquasteed to enter the room. That stung the samurai and the soldier in the chest - but they know and think as much about Aquasteed.


    The Queen and Aquasteed are very close. It''s not uncommon to be invited to a room and have tea with you. Caring for her mother was a really good son.


    Therefore all those who served the queen could not refuse strongly.


    Of course I have feelings of anxiety, but more than that, everyone trusts Aquasteed.


    We will have to wait for the return of those who have just gone to confirm, so that the queen, who is going astray, will contact us soon.


    "... more. Excuse me, the door will be closed."


    "But that''s as much as it takes......"


    "Excuse me, but unfortunately I don''t deserve you guys to look inside"


    While he seemed sorry, Elliot relentlessly closed the door.


    Now only Aquasteed and Elliot are in the Queen''s private room. If you''re wrong, don''t let a samurai or a knight know the existence of a hidden passage.


    Moreover, this passage is not intended for escape. It is a secret of a royal family that should not be known any more, which leads under the Fairy King.


    "... you put a lot of work into it, Elliot"


    "No. It would be nothing but an emergency for Master Tiara Rose to have been taken away by the Fairy King"


    Besides, when it comes to Elliot''s work, it''s an inspection of the sea that Isira is raising. I put it off a little bit and decided there was no problem.


    "Isira was worried about Tiara Rose."


    Isira is very worried about Tiara Rose, who is going to be married from her neighbor.


    Ever since I found out that the sea fairies who loved me hated me, I was even more concerned. Be happy with Aquasteed so that you can love and live in this country forever......


    Like the sisters, he said he''d be happy to get along. Elliot remembers that Isira was laughing so much.


    "... more. What do you say?


    "Sure, according to the literature it should be around here..."


    The deepest part of the room. Aquasteed reaches for a beautiful painting on the wall.


    In a beautiful frame, flowers are painted. I didn''t usually care, but it was definitely a painting reminiscent of a forest fairy.


    If Aquasteed looked at it still, he could feel a slight sign of magic.


    "I see, this is... Old, hard magic."


    "You have to open it if you want to."


    With a difficult face, Aquasteed narrows his eyes.


    Elliot also has knowledge of magic, but the amount of magic is overwhelmingly more Aquasteed. Elliot decided to watch and refrained behind.


    Praying is all about Aquasteed getting Tiara Rose back soon -.

 26 11. The name of the king to be taken to the throne is: Part I

    From generation to generation, the path to the fairy king is only communicated to the royal family of the kingdom of Marine Forest.


    It is the light of hope left by the king''s beloved to his offspring.


    Kasari. When Aquasteed walks, leaves laid all over the ground make noise. Green tunnels that are not as good as tree gates.


    Colorful blooming flowers are just the kind I''ve never even seen in the royal castle. Perhaps if you don''t get a lot of blessings from the forest fairies, it''s hard to see them on the ground -.


    That was the passage leading from the Queen''s private room to the Fairy King.


    "This is another amazing passage...... I think I like the fairies in the woods."


    "Oh. Ahead, I guess there''s Keith the Fairy King"


    It took some time, but Aquasteed succeeded in passing through the hidden passage. It was difficult magic, but Tiara Rose lies ahead.


    You can''t not not force it.


    There are two people going down the aisle: Aquasteed and Elliot.


    Aquasteed thought Elliot was waiting, but he was clearly told, "I can''t do that." I didn''t want to let one Aquasteed, the Lord, go under the Fairy King.


    - When it comes to Master Tiara Rose, you won''t be able to see around.


    It would always be nice to have a sober aquasteed, but not only with regard to the drowning princess.


    In the first place, it''s impossible because it means putting a princess from another country who hasn''t married her yet in the office.


    - How much drowning escalates in a year of bride training.


    Exactly. If you want to play the lady of your own country, it will affect you in the future. Aquasteed is a prince, but his reign will be jeopardized if the powerful nobleman hates him.


    That''s all, you have to be careful. Only the king with the most heavy pressures is considered to be allowed to prioritize romantic marriage in this marine forest.


    Otherwise, the royal family has a tendency to prioritize the national interest, though not publicly. Of course, there are royalties who fall in love and marry a courtier of national interest.


    Take a breath, Elliot looks forward. I can''t see ahead. It''s the main road.


    "You don''t know how far it is. I can''t see ahead."


    "It''s a magical passage, right?... I''ve been trying to find out for a while now, but it''s not working."


    "Right. If Elliot can''t do it, it''ll be tough."


    When it comes to magic such as exploration, Elliot is better at it than Aquasteed. That''s what he says, "It''s good luck," so it won''t be possible to explore it any further.


    - In the meantime, do we have to keep going?


    Maybe there''s some magic you can''t get to. Of course, it is possible that there is no such special magic.


    It''s impossible to explore magically, so it''s a quick way to walk.


    but the next moment -!


    Gah! And a sharp sword appeared in front of Aquasteed.


    "...... Huh!?"


    "Dear Aquasteed!


    It was thrust to the ground by momentum from the ceiling. Typical, a trap.


    Aquasteed that I avoided by lowering my hair back for a moment, but I didn''t have time to relieve myself. Two or three swords were about to pour Aquasteed from the ceiling.


    Set up the sword that was on his sword, and Aquasteed grinds away the falling sword. It was too abrupt, but Aquasteed, who usually does sword arches, doesn''t have any making either.


    "Are you all right?


    "No problem. Nevertheless, I didn''t know they would bother to prepare a trap."


    Originally, this passage connects the fairy king to the beloved queen. Of course, it is inconceivable that there was such a trap at that time.


    In other words, it''s reasonable to think of Keith as a trap prepared for Aquasteed.


    "I walk forward"


    "No. I want to pick up Tiara as soon as possible, so you can stay like this"


    Control Elliot trying to get forward as an escort, and Aquasteed keeps walking the straight path.


    Now that I know there''s a trap, with my hands on the sword pattern for immediate response.


    but a set trap is an abnormal thing. The next attack on Aquasteed, which was preparing for a physical attack, was a pitfall.


    "Hey... Huh!


    I can''t play all this with a sword or anything.


    Aquasteed said softly, "It''s empty!" He raises his voice and floats his body in the wind. But it''s also a moment - with that moment, it was enough for Aquasteed.


    Put your hand at the foot of the hole and keep moving and lift your body with the force of your arm to escape. Pay the dirt on your clothes, but walk right out like nothing happened.


    Exactly. Elliot also sees Aquasteed with an open face, but he walks back without saying anything because he knows he''s in a hurry.


    "Let''s hurry, Elliot"


    Copy that, sir.


    Aquasteed increases the speed at which he moves forward if he can''t take time in a trap.


    Next a sword pops out of the side or the leaves of the tree strike like a sharp blade. - but Aquasteed moves on as he slaps them all down with his sword.


    Now you don''t know which one of us is your squire. Such Elliot''s whining has not reached Aquasteed......


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Ugh......"


    "Oh, Tiara, I''m up."


    "Fruit, let''s eat ~"


    Tiara Rose wakes up on a fluffy, comfortable bed.


    It''s the fairies in the woods who are around, peering into Tiara Rose for fun. Don''t let your tired heart soothe you, too, for a cute green child who is so shabby.


    "... and. Yes, I was forced by Keith to bring me here."


    "King, I''m not here right now."


    "Tiara, play."


    "Huh? Of course it''s okay to play - Ngu"


    Once I tried to tell him I wanted to go back to the castle, Tiara Rose''s mouth was pressed by the fairy of the woods against a miserable fruit. "Eat and eat," he made me happy, including in his mouth the first offering.


    If they had eaten, the fairies would have brought the fruit under the Tiara Rose one after the other. (2) apples, apples, honey citrus¡­. Yellow colorful fruit like Tiara Rose has never seen before.


    That''s exactly where the fruit was called the grace of the forest.


    "Eat up!"


    The dust and the fairy of the woods give the fruit to Tiara Rose. I try my best to eat it one after the other, but the fairies give it to me at a very fast pace.


    If you sift, shake your head, and smile bitterly, "I can''t eat that much," the fairy laughs raggedly.


    "Thank you. I''m so hungry."


    "Good!"


    "Was it delicious?"


    "Yeah. Very much. The grace of the forest is so delicious."


    Where his stomach is full, Tiara Rose looks indoors.


    The room was very comfortable and reassuring as it was stuck in the woods. It''s like being wrapped in cotton and cherished. Enough to fall into such an illusion.


    "All the while, it wasn''t about time. Fairy, I want to go home to the castle, but what can I do?"


    "To the castle?"


    "Are you leaving already? I miss you ~! ''


    ''Let''s play more,'' the fairies say to Tiara Rose. But at the same time, ''It''s this way,'' he pointed to the door of the room.


    Tiara Rose gently puts her hands on the door while feeling sorry for those gentle fairies. The shaking tone of the flowers decorated as decorations tells us that the door has been opened.


    At the end of the door was a passage, which seemed to lead somewhere.


    "Come here, come ~"


    "That way?"


    A fairy takes Tiara Rose''s hand and guides her through the fairy king''s castle. Everywhere is full of comfortable greenery and not comparable to the human country.


    As we walked down the long aisle we reached the large room.


    - Where the hell are we?


    I don''t know the exit. Tiara Rose I was thinking that way, but I notice something. In the upper seat of the room is the throne on which the king sits.


    But now, there''s no sign of Keith there.


    It''s obvious because the fairies said they were out, but the throne without the king seemed so lonely.


    "I have to go home now. Master Aqua may be worried."


    The last time I saw you with Keith, I was terribly jealous. Even myself, I don''t think Aquasteed can be heterosexual.


    I don''t want to misunderstand each other any more.


    "Master Aqua?"


    He''s my fianc¨¦e.


    "Tiara''s favorite person?


    "Yeah. I love it so much."


    The fairy shouted at Tiara Rose and nodded honestly as she embarrassed herself.


    The only factor that Tiara Rose should be concerned about is the maiden game. Other than that, I believe, for example, when it comes to how Aquasteed feels.


    Instead, they are so spoiled that there is no other way than to believe. Therefore, there is nothing to be afraid of but the compulsion of the maiden game.


    On the contrary, the power of the Maiden Game is terrifying.


    "- True, I don''t know what a human is."


    "Keith!"


    Fluffy, Keith appeared with metastatic magic behind Tiara Rose. It takes a hug from behind as it is.


    He heard no scolding Tiara Rose''s voice, lifting her up and calming her hips to the throne.


    He will be the one to sit on Keith''s lap, "Please stop," he protests, but he will be put through. I see Keith wondering what the hell is going on, but I can''t read that look.


    "... is something wrong?


    "No? Does Tiara want to go back to the castle?"


    "Of course it is. Dear Aqua, I don''t want to bother you any more..."


    Lie down and tell him you don''t want to be a burden to Aquasteed.


    It is Tiara Rose, blessed by the Fairy of the Forest and liked by the Fairy King of the Forest. Instead of burdening me, I have been able to contribute enough to the country - either from another country or I don''t really realize its importance.


    No, I might be more right about not being able to afford to think about it because the maiden game thing makes up the majority of my head.


    "True, humans are troublesome."


    Crisp and Keith laugh and gently stroke Tiara Rose''s hair. "The princess just has to wait," she told him, taking a breather.


    "Keith?"


    Tiara Rose frowns as she glances at the fairy king who seems to know something. At the same time, however, I can predict that the Fairy King will not answer that question.


    If you wonder what''s going on, the big door between the thrones opened with a bang.


    "Tiara!"


    "Dear Aqua...... Huh!


    It was deep blue that filled Tiara Rose''s vision. She won''t love me, she''s my beloved...

 27 12. The name of the king to be taken to the throne is: Part II

    It was pale honey pink that jumped between the thrones and buried Aquasteed''s vision first.


    Fluffy and shaky beautiful hair makes me want to dye my own blue - I always thought so. And the next thing in sight is the fairy king who won''t let it go by capturing it.


    "... let Tiara go, Fairy King"


    "I don''t like it - what if I told you?


    "Of course, I can help, but let me take it back"


    Tiara Rose is the one that shivers her body at the interaction between the two of them.


    I want to get out of Keith''s lap, but he''s holding my hips and I can''t get down. Even though it must not be because of itself, such as a dispute between the king of man and the king of fairies.


    I say "don''t" in a fine voice, but it doesn''t reach the two ears.


    Even if Tiara Rose said to stop, Aquasteed can''t pull it off already. They are capturing the woman they love and putting her on their lap.


    I''m driven by the urge to yell at you, asking you to make a fool of yourself.


    "I will not tolerate Tiara, even though she is king of fairies"


    "Hmm. You''d have as many other women as you want, wouldn''t you? And yet it makes me laugh to give Tiara back."


    "What - all I need is Tiara"


    Keith laughs at the crease and sees Aquasteed with an extra look. "Tiara should have been anxious for a long time," he says to his hair.


    "Fairy King...... Huh!


    I want to bite my lips tight and cut them up - but with Tiara Rose, that''s not easy to do either.


    Tiara Rose''s hair, eyes and lips are all things Aquasteed has always been in love with. Finally, I was able to take it away from Halt Knights.


    No way here, being targeted by a further strong man named Fairy King, etc. But Aquasteed has no hair, such as the intention of letting Keith take it from him.


    Even if that could lead the country to a catastrophe, you would not hesitate to choose Tiara Rose.


    "Keith! Let go of me!


    "... a woman doesn''t talk about a man''s battle - does she?


    Tiara Rose speaks up, but Keith has no ears to listen to.


    On the contrary, as I tell Aquasteed, I just ask him to agree and look him in the eye.


    - If you want Tiara, you can take it back!


    Standing still from the throne, Keith flutters and winds down to the front of Aquasteed. Tiara Rose, left on the throne, can only see the two of them without knowing what to do.


    I wish I had definitive information.


    I could never think of a confrontation between Aquasteed and the Fairy King other than an event in the game. Otherwise, nothing could possibly happen that would involve such a country.


    That''s what Tiara Rose thinks, but Aquasteed doesn''t know about the events of the game or anything, and they''re moving at their will without a relationship.


    "You think every human being can beat a fairy king?


    "Even if it''s tough, you can''t lose -!"


    Shh, and. Trying to cut the wind, Aquasteed''s sword was pointed at Keith.


    Quick flashing cutouts slice Keith''s throat into space. "Ho..." said Keith, laughing in praise.


    "Don''t play a pretty good sword when you say you''re human"


    "There''s no way a weak king can support this country -!!"


    "... Hmm. Sure, the kings of history were good at martial arts."


    Two, three, four... and. Aquasteed swords rolled out one after the other.


    Keith makes it look as light as the wind. But the next moment, Aquasteed''s heavy blow approaches Keith''s eyes.


    - Kiddin.


    It was Keith''s fan that took Aquasteed''s sword.


    It was always pinched in my belt. So I took the sword. I can''t believe they took it with a fan. Aquasteed played the sword as it was and flew back.


    "We''re going this way next!


    When Keith fans up the wind, it becomes a disease and it hits Aquasteed.


    The name Fairy King is not Dade. Quickly avoided - the wind made a small scratch on Aquasteed''s cheek and showed enough power to break through the back wall.


    "... cliffs? Right, this is near the top of the mountain."


    "Oh. It''s the highest mountain. I can see everything in this country from here."


    Then it''s like watching over the country. Both Tiara Rose and Aquasteed capture Keith''s words that way.


    Of course, I don''t know, actually. Blessed are the fairies of the woods, because it is very difficult.


    "If you fall, you die, huh?


    "Hmm. I just hope I don''t fall - it''s water!


    Kick Keith laughing, Aquasteed wraps water around his own sword.


    It is difficult to wrap magic around a sword unless you are good at handling magic. Only then will Aquasteed prove to be good at both swords and magic.


    Keith also seemed convinced and looked to Aquasteed as "funny".


    Confirm again the position of the Tiara Rose to be retrieved. He looks at Aquasteed and Keith with a clear eye, still in the position of sitting on the throne.


    At this distance, you won''t be involving Tiara Rose in the offense.


    If Aquasteed waves his sword, the wrapped water becomes a double blade and heads to Keith.


    It just seems that I can''t do it anymore, and I fan it out. Aquasteed does not miss a moment''s gap in its recirculation.


    Let the wind wrap around your legs and clasp your sword at once until zero distance.


    "...... Huh!!"


    Seeing too fierce an attack, Tiara Rose rises from the throne with a sound of a scream.


    I don''t want Aquasteed or Keith to get hurt or anything. I want them both to be safe. Though it may be as I am, I do.


    Blood falling from Aquasteed''s cheeks falls to the floor. Although it''s a shallow wound, I don''t want to see my loved ones hurt.


    "Dear Aqua! Keith! No more!!"


    Between the two of us who were a little distance away and timing ourselves to make our next attack - Tiara Rose let herself dance.


    Aquasteed, who was waving his sword up, and Keith, who was about to unleash magic from his fan, a voice that would not make them scream, echoing between the thrones.


    "... Gug!


    "Of, do it... Huh!


    The action taken by the two was all poured into just one point: not hurting Tiara Rose.


    Aquasteed weakens his momentum by grasping that blade tip with his own hands in order to stop his sword. Keith is forced to defy the magic track, and the wind blows vigorously between the thrones.


    "... KHAH!


    Keith''s magic was not a direct hit - a blowing wind flies Tiara Rose''s body into space.


    It was Tiara Rose who jumped in between the two fighting. Of course, I was prepared to be safe.


    But the fear was far greater than such expectations. Calling himself Tiara Rose''s name thrown out, Keith tries to grab that hand, but unfortunately it results in grasping the universe.


    "Tiara!!"


    "... Huh!


    And then comes the result that everyone had predicted, but prayed it wouldn''t.


    The blown Tiara Rose''s body was thrown out of a big, empty hole - into the ground.


    "Wind."


    "Tiara!"


    Faster than Keith uses the magic of the wind, Aquasteed follows Tiara Rose and throws herself into a hole where she can see the cliff. I used the wind and hugged it gently to increase the fall speed and wrap it under Tiara Rose.


    "Aww, come on...... Huh!?"


    "- Finally. Finally, I could hug you"


    He said he was thrown out into the sky and he was falling.


    Aquasteed was so happy to hold Tiara Rose in that hand. All I''m saying is I''m not letting go anymore, I hug you hard.


    "Dear Aqua......"


    "You were making me anxious. I''m sorry I just don''t have the strength."


    "No. No - that''s not true. Aqua made time for me every day. I shouldn''t be jealous of Isira."


    Sift and shake your head, Tiara Rose tells you it''s not Aquasteed''s fault.


    "... jealous, were you?


    In Tiara Rose''s ear, Aquasteed tells her to whisper.


    Shit! And it''s already too late when Tiara Rose thinks. Aquasteed, who looks happy, mouths straight to his ears, sliding his lips to his hair and cheeks.


    It''s Tiara Rose who panics about it.


    - This situation!


    Currently, Tiara Rose is falling into the air while being hugged by Aquasteed.


    As it is, fate awaits us to be slapped to death by the ground. Yet why is Aquasteed so affordable?


    Of course, it was because I was able to use Tiara Rose as my hand.


    "Sorry. I''m careless but glad Tiara thought so"


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Chi Chu, now he''s mouthing me on my lips.


    It''s like gently stumbling. It''s ticklish, and there''s a sweet voice from Tiara Rose''s mouth.


    - I''d love to hear a cuter voice, but is that again tonight?


    It''s time to do something, or I''ll really be beaten to death on the ground.


    "Tiara, hold on tight to me"


    "Ha, ha!


    Holding it against his chest, Aquasteed narrowed his eyes.


    Tiara Rose hugs Aquasteed all the time, as she was told.


    Wonders and fears had disappeared when it came to being under these circumstances.


    If it was Aquasteed, Tiara Rose had the peace of mind that she would definitely protect me.


    "Fairy in the sky, respond to my voice"


    ''Damn, I just get impotent. Face the fairy king, etc...''


    It was the fairy in the sky with wings on its back that responded to Aquasteed''s clear voice.


    That voice is worrying about Aquasteed, though.


    Aquasteed, who is blessed in the sky, is his territory in this realm of sky.


    So proud that if it were empty, Keith wouldn''t even beat it.


    "Sky, take it with your wings"


    "Come on...... Huh!


    Aquasteed puts magic on his voice and uses the magic of the sky.


    Fluffy and windy, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed''s body run through the sky like a bird.


    Unexpectedly "wow," Tiara Rose leaks her voice.


    Aren''t we the only ones who have seen this country from above? The more I think so, the more beautiful this country is from above.


    - Aqua is working hard to protect this beautiful country.


    It makes me think I''m very tiny, like jealous of Isira.


    I want to support this country, along with Aquasteed.


    When I naturally thought so, I was overflowing with tears.


    "Tiara?"


    "... no. Me, I think I was worried about something very small. But from now on - Aqua and I are going to work harder together."


    He smiled as if he was smiling, and now Tiara Rose softly mumbled to Aquasteed.


    away in an instant. I miss that a little, but now this was enough - ¡­.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "No more things like this one!


    Pum! And Tiara Rose swells her cheeks to reveal her anger at Aquasteed and Keith.


    We both honestly apologized, so we eventually forgave him, but Tiara Rose''s sermon spanned an hour.


    "I''m sorry, Tiara. From now on, more than ever, let''s stay together."


    "I don''t know what else to do. I''m gonna go hang out."


    - I feel something different!


    Though I''m glad Aquasteed makes the time, obviously Keith would be kidding.


    "Tiara''s busy with me, so unfortunately you''re not going to be able to take the official time to meet the Fairy King"


    "I''m starting to say, you. Then why don''t we go play at night?"


    "Then we''ll just keep the bedroom together"


    Two people telling each other to scatter sparks.


    Even though it was like a joke. Sora, Tiara Rose didn''t think it was a very joke. "Please don''t!," he raises his voice several times.


    "Well, okay."


    If Keith tries to touch Tiara Rose''s hair, Aquasteed pays for that hand.


    Because he''s the fairy king, he doesn''t seem to be willing to hesitate anymore.


    Tiara Rose sees those two interactions as she sits on the throne.


    - I think you''re getting along.


    If the two kings take their hands, this country will be richer.


    It was the fairies in the woods who saw and raised their voices to Tiara Rose like that.


    "Tiara, you look like a king ~!


    The words spun with a giggle and laughter turned all the gaze on the spot towards Tiara Rose.


    Sitting on the throne, aquasteed on one side. On the other side, Keith.


    It''s as if you''re following two kings.


    "Ha! I knew Tiara would be nice."


    - Sometimes it''s good to be involved with humans.


    I laughed bitterly and Keith thought I was a little excited about the future of this country.

 28 13. Disclosure Ceremony

    Since one incident with Keith, Aquasteed had an overwhelming increase in time spent with Tiara Rose. That''s enough that Keith can''t come looking at the gap anymore.


    "You can take care of the flowers, but it''s not good that Tiara''s hands get rough"


    "It''s okay. I give you enough water¡­"


    On a bench in a small garden with beautiful flowers, the two of them had a neat time.


    A bench made inspired by flowers that manifest fairies in the woods and birds that manifest fairies in the sky. And in the center of the garden is a lovely fountain made of coral.


    This is a garden created by Tiara Rose.


    It is the most beautiful garden in the royal castle, where several new species of flowers are born because the fairies of the forest are blessing us.


    In such a place, Aquasteed was routinely spoiling Tiara Rose.


    Now he mouths softly in her hand and says, "Don''t push me too hard". It is a great waste to have beautiful white hands rough in the care of the garden.


    I don''t think Tiara Rose has that much of a problem, but people who become their own husbands are a lot more worried.


    "If I said that, wouldn''t Aqua''s hands be amazing?"


    "This is fine. It''s like a medal to me because it''s made of holding a sword."


    "Me too, taking care of the plants is a medal, right?


    "Yeah, I know. But I don''t like it."


    Touch Tiara Rose''s hand to wrap it around, enjoy the feeling and finally rub it. Soft hands, unlike my own, are so adorable.


    I try to be shy, but Tiara Rose never refuses either. Aquasteed that sweetens me, says she''s cute. I think the same thing.


    - Such a sweet and melting year of bridesmaid training is not long gone.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Once the bride has completed her studies, she will return to her country for an unveiling ceremony.


    As is customary, Tiara Rose came to Lapis Lazuli with Aquasteed.


    My first home I''ve seen in a year makes Tiara Rose''s breasts hot. The same warm, solid, large mansion always kept an eye on Tiara Rose.


    But right now, it''s not this mansion that''s watching over her. Aquasteed.


    - I''m very happy.


    If you step off the carriage and turn your gaze to Aquasteed, who stands next to you, you''ll say, "What''s wrong?," he smiles.


    "No. Thank you, Master Aqua"


    "That''s our dialogue, isn''t it? Tiara took my hand. No more happiness."


    Escort Tiara Rose gracefully and the two enter the mansion.


    It was his father and mother who greeted him there. Delighted with tears at her long reunion, she smiled "You look happy" to her daughter though.


    That makes me happy again, and Tiara Rose weeps.


    "Let me tell you a lot about what happened at Marine Forest."


    "Of course, Mother. Tell me about a year without me, right?


    "Yeah. We''ll talk all night."


    Mother and daughter - in the meantime, the Marquis of Clementil, his father, is hard to get into. If you''re gripping a wet handkerchief in a plush tear, Aquasteed will follow you.


    "Men are hard to get into talking to each other. If you don''t mind, I''ll join you. I brought some delicious wine as a souvenir."


    "Your Highness Aquasteed! Thank you. My daughter seems very happy to be able to marry His Highness."


    If I made a mistake, I almost had to have the worst marriage with Halt Nights.


    The Marquis of Clementil still doesn''t allow that convicted graduation party thing to happen. I told him not to worry about it on the surface, and he can''t get that clean up to his belly.


    That''s when the mansion''s maid announced her visit.


    I didn''t have any plans, but what the hell is going on makes me gaze. While I''m sorry that I watered down the family reunion, the maid mouthed the names of Akali and Haltnites.


    It will be natural that the air in the room soon became harsh. "Let me go home," the Marquis Clamenteal reveals his anger with such abusive language as he would normally never use.


    But it was Tiara Rose who stopped it.


    "Father, I want to talk to you, Mr. Akali."


    "- What are you talking about, Tiara? Did that woman forget what she did?


    Tiara Rose tells her she wants to talk to Akali. But the father isn''t the only one who disagrees with it. And Aquasteed.


    But more than that, it was Philine who revealed her anger.


    "What are you thinking, Dear Tiara Rose! I will never forgive you for that!


    "Besides, the day after tomorrow, it''s an unveiling ceremony. I''d like to get some rest."


    "Didn''t His Highness Aquasteed also say this?"


    - Mm-hmm. I don''t know what to do.


    Honestly, I don''t particularly talk to Halt Knights. But I want to talk to Akali, who gave me the last letter.


    She told me not to lose the sequel heroine Isira, that''s what she told me.


    What have you been doing for the past year? I guess the fact that you''ve been with Halt Knights means the two of us are working hard as declared.


    "Just with Master Akali, please"


    "... Phew. Tiara, there''s something stubborn about it. Who the hell do I look like?"


    - Definitely your father.


    Though I never put it in my mouth. Sweet to his daughter, the Marquis of Clamenteal gave permission to meet Tiara Rose and Akali, shabby.


    However, it is advised that Aquasteed will also be present as a condition.


    "Sir!


    "I''m so glad that Filine is worried about my daughter, but I can''t help it because she wants it. Tell His Highness Haltnights to wait in a separate room."


    "... ok. Then I will guide His Highness Haltnights."


    Turning his back around, Filine immediately left the room to give a guide to Halt Knights.


    Everyone who was indoors had a bad feeling about it - but no one spoke of it. Guys, I can''t help it because Tiara Rose is cute.


    "Oh man...... Well, let''s go."


    "Yes. I''m sorry for being selfish, Master Aqua"


    "No. I love hearing about Tiara''s selfishness."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    If you apologize, they will return you to Aquasteed, who laughs when you dull. That embarrasses me, Tiara Rose leans down as I blush.


    In the reception room I followed while escorted, there was an acari waiting alone, as we were talking about.


    "Dear Tiara! Long time no see!"


    - It''s so friendly!!


    As soon as he saw Tiara Rose, Akali smiled as the flowers bared. She is Japanese, the heroine of the Game Lapis Lazuli ring.


    Beautifully cared for Sarasa black hair, black eyes. She wore a lovely peach dress and gracefully thanked her.


    "It''s been a while. You look fine. More importantly, Mr. Acari."


    "Yeah. I''m working hard with Master Halt Knights. I feel like I''m playing a new one now because the ending is so over!


    If you calm down across the street from Akari, that already sounded like fun to talk to.


    - Handling the new maiden game on your own after the end of the game is a horrible child......!


    That''s right, I''m just saying I love maiden games myself. Tiara Rose passes through a shudder and becomes more impressed.


    With a bitter smile, it was best to say "good luck".


    I mean, I guess Halt Knights is a target for acari as an offensive target.


    "Forget it, I will. Dear Tiara, Dear Aqua, Congratulations on this unveiling ceremony. And the wedding''s in a month, right? Be happy soon."


    "Thank you, Dear Acari"


    "Thanks"


    To the eye of the acari to congratulate him, he beat the heroine well! And there was a flame to admire. Well, I guess I didn''t like being aquasteed by the heroine in the sequel.


    "For a year, nothing? Didn''t you get bullied? Especially with the sea fairies!


    "... you hate me"


    "I knew it. I thought it was absolutely true. That''s why I brought this as a wedding gift."


    That said, what Akali took out was a beautiful piercing.


    The current acari is presented in this lapis lazuli as'' Princess with Holy Prayer and Making Holy Prayer ''.


    That''s the first time she''s created something called Pierce in this world. Bringing a new culture to a world where until now there were only earrings.


    Made of pink and dark blue, the piercings showed the colors of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, no matter who saw them.


    Each of these piercings is a guardian to the ear. Mass production is not possible because of the holy prayer of the acari, but it has become something many people seek.


    "So am I..."


    Saying so, Akali shows her ears. It soon became apparent that there was a yellow piercing there, showing the colour of Haltonites.


    "Well, I''m still screwing around. Halt Knights is so cute these days."


    I guess I''m thinking of Halt Knights, laughing at the dullness. Tiara Rose is happy that she looks like she''s having so much fun and she looks happy.


    I will thank you for deciding to receive the piercing and say to Aquasteed what I want to put on because of it.


    "Take this? Although I don''t mind Tiara wanting to wear it - it''s more surprising to me that she''s getting along with Miss Acari."


    "Well...... Sure, that''s right. I was attacked by an acari."


    "Speaking of which, I was! But, well, now that we''ve defeated the sequel heroine, we''re like buddies."


    I don''t care about the past. The type of acari tells Aquasteed that we''re friends now, with a nod of yeah.


    But it''s not even Aquasteed who honestly receives it. - but if I saw Tiara Rose laughing with her shoulders trembling on the side, I''d lose my mind about that, too.


    "Tiara?"


    "Oh, I''m sorry. Dear Aqua...... Well, I did do terrible things to Akali. But Aqua helped us."


    Though not a plain answer, it was best to say this to Tiara Rose.


    And I recall a letter from Akali I got when I was traveling to Marine Forest. Last written, a drink about not losing a sequel heroine.


    That was so inspiring. Lovely Isira was often beside Aquasteed. Of course, there''s more to being beside Tiara Rose than that.


    I thought if I lost, I''d feel sorry for myself. Aquasteed, who liked acari, chose me.


    So Tiara Rose wanted to keep picking absolute aquasteeds until the end. Don''t let the sequel heroine Isira beat you.


    "Totally. - One day, you''re gonna tell me everything right?


    "... Ah, Akuasa?


    "You know as much as Tiara puts on something I can''t. But if you don''t seem to say too much - be prepared?


    Hey, and.


    Aquasteed''s fingers touch Tiara Rose''s lips.


    My eyes are telling me to reveal all that anxiety to myself. It makes me horrible how far the hell I''m making predictions, but I''m sure I can get my mouth cracked soon, Tiara Rose thought so.


    "Already. It''s nice to be a lover, but leave me where I am!


    "Oh, I''m sorry..."


    While blushing, Tiara Rose apologizes to Acari. You wouldn''t want to see someone who even liked her befriending another woman.


    Acari laughs as she sips tea and says, "Well, that''s fine". Tiara Rose smiled when she asked me if I would pierce her as she was.


    On Tiara Rose''s ears, dark blue piercings.


    On Aquasteed''s ears, honey pink piercings.


    "Lovely. Thank you, Dear Acari"


    "Pierce is strange."


    "Pfft! This is my first accessory in the world!


    The proud-breasted clams have grown over the past year. They''re willing to sing the world of this maiden game until they die.


    She finally handed over a letter to Tiara Rose and returned home.


    - You''re gonna be really happy! Yes, leave the words.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The unveiling ceremony took place at Tiara Rose''s home.


    Royalty, nobility and a lot of people gather to send down the flowers of blessing to two people who marry in an exotic country.


    Time for the morning light to plug in, before the gathered people, Aquasteed and Tiara Rose enter. At that time, the guest gives a flower shower and gives a grand words of celebration.


    While illuminated, Tiara Rose laughs happily when Aquasteed escorts her.


    Good to be happy, the Marquis of Clementil watched with tears in his eyes. My daughter''s happiness is my father''s happiness.


    And watching it from where it was withheld are Philine, who is in tears of delight that I can''t see before, and Elliot, who looks worried about her.


    I''m sorry to show this to Elliot, Philine, but I can''t help it because I can''t stop crying.


    I''m relieved from the bottom of my heart that I''m really glad Halt Knights didn''t have a wife. I''d rather have more tears. Perhaps you can tell me to flow.


    In an unveiling ceremony, there is a word of oath from the bride to her parents.


    Tiara Rose goes under her parents, gives her thanks for raising her, tells her that she is happy, and marries her.


    "Father, Mother. I am very happy. The fact that your father raised you harshly, the fact that your mother made me go through all sorts of experiences. Now, that''s my power."


    "Oh. I''m glad Tiara laughed so happily."


    "Even in neighboring countries, you live well."


    "Yes...... Huh!


    Still in the dress, Tiara Rose hugged her parents. If you gouge it, the pluck will pass on. The two of you who raised yourself, with the desire to be happy.


    Titty and warm applause wrapped the mansion and the grand open unveiling was successfully concluded.

 29 14. Settlement with sequel heroine

    Having successfully completed the unveiling ceremony, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed returned to Marine Forest.


    The formal wedding is to take place in the cathedral in a month.


    Many people come as guests from all over the country. From now on, we will be chased to prep and we will have busy days.


    "... Phew. I should have remembered it all."


    "Are you all right, Tiara?"


    "Thank you"


    Aquasteed''s office.


    Next to Aquasteed doing her job, Tiara Rose desperately remembered her wedding guest list. Kings, princes, and princesses of all nations come to celebrate.


    The bride doesn''t know that, etc., and I can''t say it even if my mouth is torn.


    Have a sip of tea and watch Aquasteed sit on the side.


    It was easy to see that a clean, tidy face was seeing some fatigue and he would be forced to do it too.


    "I''m not that hard. Originally, we know our dignitaries in each country."


    "Exactly."


    Tiara Rose has been charged with a rigorous Queen''s education from an early age.


    Teachers were slapped into the history of each country and into the current connection between key positions and nobility. Therefore, it may be more right to check than to remember the list.


    That''s the same with Aquasteed, who never double-checks after a glance. Tiara Rose admires how good she is because everything fits in that brain.


    ¨D¨D¡­¡­


    Unexpectedly, Koten...... Aquasteed leans against Tiara Rose.


    I wondered what the hell was going on, but I soon realized that it was sweet. If you''re going to rest on your own shoulder, you can offer as much as you want.


    Long lashes laid down would envy the woman of the world if she saw them. Such Tiara Rose is one of them, but I''m sure Aquasteed hasn''t noticed.


    - Dear Aqua, she''s cute.


    Eh heh, a happy grin spills from Tiara Rose.


    Aquasteed, who peered at it with only a few thin eyes, also smiles satisfactorily.


    - Tiara is as cute as ever.


    Who on this occasion would realize that the two thoughts are together?


    Ho, ho, ho, ho. Soft air flowing, somewhere sweet.


    So "I want a lover too......" and no one replied to Elliot''s whining about being paperwork.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The days are quickly past, and if you realize it''s already the day before the wedding.


    From the home of Tiara Rose, the king, Prince Sirius, and his parents rushed to the wedding. I wanted to make time to go see him soon, but not quite there in preparation for the ceremony.


    It is also Tiara Rose''s job to be polished every day, she also received a massage this morning and in the morning she was cared for her nails with care in mind.


    - Things like this, you''re no different from Japan.


    Of course, it was originally a Japanese maiden game. As for the wedding, Tiara Rose is relieved without any special practices, etc.


    When you look at the nails that have been nicely loosened, your chest twitches and warms.


    After a year of bridesmaid training, she will be Aquasteed''s wife tomorrow. How emotional, sometimes.


    "It''s beautiful, Dear Tiara Rose. Well, I''m glad you''re safe with His Highness Aquasteed."


    "Already, Philine. What are you gonna do now, weep? The real deal is tomorrow..."


    "Right. If I do, look forward to it...!


    Prepare a tea set so Philine can calm down, and Tiara Rose gets a late lunch. In the afternoon I will take care of my hair and check the wedding flow. Then I took a bath and went to bed.


    Tomorrow morning we need to get ready early, so we have to rest considerably sooner than usual.


    That''s when the knock sounds on the door of the room.


    "I wonder who. You''re not supposed to have any promises, are you?


    "Yes, we will check, please hold on to Dear Tiara Rose"


    He nodded stiffly and Tiara Rose decided to leave it to Filine.


    I still have a lot of plans today - Tiara Rose looked at the door with a bad feeling.


    - This pattern, wouldn''t it have happened before?


    When was that? Yeah, it''s just graduation party day.... and decided to put an end to this memory in retrospect that much.


    Don''t flag Heroin Isira coming to visit. But nothing hits me more than these unpleasant hunches.


    Filine said, "There''s Isira..."


    "Well, Master Isira? Let me through."


    "Yes, sir."


    Immediately upon giving permission, Isira came with a samurai.


    Thank each other and Tiara Rose recommends a seat.


    "Sorry to keep you busy."


    "No, I am so glad that Isira is here."


    Next to Filine preparing tea, the two smile and chat.


    I wonder what the hell you''ve been doing, but have you come to stop Tiara Rose from getting married as a heroine?


    "Dear Tiara Rose, Congratulations on your marriage. I really wanted to celebrate."


    "Well...... Thank you."


    Instead of honestly communicating the words of celebration, Isira floats from the bottom of her heart to the kind of smile she is blessing. "I won''t stay long," he adds, making me happy.


    That''s Tiara Rose, too, frowns at this.


    It''s Isira congratulating the two of us on the upper side, but because in my mind I still thought I liked Aquasteed.


    When you look at Isira like that, Tiara Rose wonders.


    - Really, you didn''t like Master Aqua?


    When I talk about it before, I leave everything to my father when it comes to marriage. And Isira said. Because I don''t have a man who likes me, it''s best to have him get along.


    "... did you think I admired His Highness Aquasteed?


    ¨D¨D


    Isira laughed bitterly, but clearly told Tiara Rose.


    I didn''t think they''d say that clearly, so I didn''t even have words to try to say anything.


    "I don''t really know what love is. Marriage is because your father thinks you will look for a good person..."


    "Dear Isira,"


    - Love, don''t you know?


    I wonder if it might be because of Tiara Rose''s existence.


    Isira, the heroine of the sequel, breeds love with the attacker. In this case, it would definitely have been Aquasteed''s route.


    But I couldn''t grow up in love because Tiara Rose was there. Without the irregular presence of Tiara Rose, Isira and Aquasteed would have been bound.


    Loved by sea fairies, Duke of Marine Forest warrant.


    I can''t find a word for Tiara Rose other than a good fit.


    However, it is Tiara Rose who is loved by Aquasteed.


    You can''t give all this up to Isira.


    Here, Tiara Rose is wrong to apologize to Isira. But I feel like it''s my fault.


    "... Dear Isira, I am"


    "That''s it!


    ¨D¨D!?


    The moment Tiara Rose calls Isira''s name and tilts her neck wondering what''s wrong - stopping, a third party voice echoes indoors.


    If everyone looked at the voice at the same time, the clams stood as they scolded the dark hair.


    "Dear Acari!


    "Congratulations again on your marriage, Dear Tiara.... Nice to meet you, Master Isira. My name is Akali."


    "Thank you for greeting me, Dear Acari. I''m Isira Pearlant."


    Akali stood in the window.


    From the front, I guess Akali himself firmly understood that he would undoubtedly be refused entry.


    "The heroine of the sequel...... yeah. With the game! I wish I looked happier because I could have been a heroine."


    "Dear Acari, Please don''t be rude to Isira."


    "Oh, I''m sorry. I''m sorry if I offended you."


    "No, because I don''t care"


    Tiara Rose sighs as she dominates Philine and the woman trying to report to Aquasteed. Had Isira not been a gentle courtier, it would have been a lot of noise.


    Tiara Rose sneaks up on the acari and suddenly asks what she''s been doing.


    "I wanted to see Lucky Girl, the sequel heroine.... life should be more enjoyable. Isira is a heroine, but she hasn''t done it at all. Well, it''s better than taking Master Aqua."


    "Dear Acari..."


    I really love maiden games. And the Tiara Rose is quite open.


    Is there clams here because they were allowed to attend the wedding just before? Or did she come to Marine Forest at her discretion?


    Turn around and Akali looks at Isira.


    Do you see what kind of heroine you are? Or are you trying to make sure that you are just like yourself?


    However, conclusions have already been drawn within the Tiara Rose.


    Isira is neither a reincarnator nor a metastasizer. There was no particular response to the women''s talk when it came to modern sweets. As for the metastasizers, they are not what the Japanese look like, no matter what.


    Isira is therefore a normal human being living in the land.


    "You two are close, aren''t you?"


    "Huh?"


    Tiara Rose and Akali speak simultaneously to the kind of voice that Isira''s bell rings. From other people''s point of view, does it look friendly?


    Even as I was surprised, Akali said, "Yes, it is!," he insisted with his chest up. If Tiara Rose was stunned by what she was talking about, Akali mentioned something outrageous.


    "Yes. I, as Isira says, am a friend of Tiara''s. ¡­ so worried about Dear Tiara"


    "Worried, is it?


    Isira tilts her neck wondering what the hell there is to be worried about her friend.


    "Yes. Isn''t there always Isira beside Aqua? Don''t get too close to my friend''s husband!


    ¨D¨D


    Softly, the acari sticks his index finger to Isira. Don''t dare say that to someone''s lover! And I want to say it.


    What surprised me about that was Isira. She really doesn''t have the romantic sentiment of liking Aquasteed.


    - Me, if you look around, you look like you admire Master Aquasteed...


    Isira''s chest hurts.


    "I''m sorry, Dear Tiara Rose. I should have taken more account of that."


    "Please don''t, Master Isira. Don''t worry about that.... Don''t say such things, Mr. Akali."


    Isira is only 14 years old.


    Yet, I socialize well as a Duke''s wife, and I take care of the ocean. I can''t help but admire Aquasteed like her brother.


    "Sorry, you''re making me uncomfortable..."


    In response to Tiara Rose''s words, Acari leaned down a little while apologizing.


    And I could also understand at this moment that Isira is not Japanese or anything, but a very sweet girl.


    - That''s the heroine for the sequel game.


    Very good girl and cute Isira. But I was so scared of Akali for that.


    She thinks she doesn''t know what to do more than a pure child.


    This game is a sequel to The Lapis Lazuli Ring.


    I don''t know about Tiara Rose, but Akali is playing hard.


    The attackers were Aquasteed, the king prince, his squire Elliot, Keith, the fairy king of the woods, and a young and competent butler serving in Isira''s mansion, a heroine.


    In addition to those four, there is an empty fairy king as a character on a hidden route.


    - Definitely, it''s Aquasteed''s route.


    What Akali was so sure of was the dress Isira was wearing. It is not particularly intended as an event, but the colour of the ribbon on the back makes it possible to see which route it is.


    On Isira''s back, a beautiful dark blue ribbon. Without a doubt, that was the color of Aquasteed.


    "... Dear Tiara Rose, It is time for His Highness Aquasteed to be here"


    "Oh, yeah. We had to do a final confirmation."


    Tiara Rose, who offers to be a favorite, but I think she was heartily helpful.


    Soon Isira apologizes for her long stay and leaves with the samurai. Apparently, Akari was going home from the window and sat down on the edge.


    "... Dear Acari, why are you here today? His Royal Highness Haltnights is with you, isn''t he?


    "No, I was able to be discretionary."


    "Huh...?


    If you speak to the acari trying to return, the acari shakes his head.


    If it''s going to be an official business with Halt Knights, I didn''t think there was anything else wrong with it. But I didn''t expect the acari to come alone.


    "Why...?


    "Stick around. I''m just here to see how the sequel ends"


    "Really, you like maiden games"


    Jesus Christ, Tiara Rose just thought, and Akali rode herself out the window and scratched it off as it was. I think I used magic, but it didn''t take long.


    The place where Sutonakari landed is a room in an inn a short distance from the castle. The inn, which was somewhat overpriced, was spacious enough for the room and well groomed.


    In that space, it leaked pompously... a clam solitaire.


    "I don''t care about the past. - But I love Dear Tiara now. He thinks he''s my best friend."


    - So I''m not letting Isira (the heroine) screw up my wedding.

 30 15. Blessed and Next Queen

    I wonder who it is for today.


    Isira recalls yesterday in her carriage to Tiara Rose and Aquasteed''s wedding.


    That''s what Akali told me: ''Don''t get too close to my friend''s husband!'' That''s the word.


    - Was that what I thought of His Highness Aquasteed?


    When I got a chest, I felt like it hurt.


    "I had no romantic feelings for His Highness Aquasteed."


    I''m not telling anyone, Isira makes it a word.


    Otherwise, I had the urge not to. Such a fierce sensation struck Isira, like a vortex in her chest.


    I didn''t like it, he said. I shrugged to tell myself again.


    "His Highness Aquasteed is very brilliant, strong, calm, elegant, kind, adult... It was a dazzling contrast to me diving into the sea every day."


    Rock the coral hair ornament on your hair, and Isira leans against the carriage wall.


    What I think back is tough acari words, Tiara Rose for getting along with me, and then - Aquasteed.


    "Because I am not worthy of His Highness Aquasteed. I like it. It''s so emotional. Besides, marriage is for the house. So I''m telling your father I''m asking you to do something about the engagement."


    - I don''t think about romantic marriage.


    How can I feel so agitated right now when this doesn''t usually happen? Isira grips her fist all the time and endures inside her hot chest.


    "I''m sure Akali will say something like that..."


    - I''m sure you feel sorry for Tiara Rose.


    That''s why my chest is so tight.


    Isira''s emotions toward Aquasteed are not love.


    But the colour of the ribbon to which Isira ties was still dark blue today - ¡­.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Cathedral, in Marine Forest.


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed''s wedding is just about to be - strictly enforced.


    "... what shall we do? Me, isn''t that really weird?


    "It''s the most beautiful thing in the world, so feel confident"


    At the entrance to the cathedral, it is Tiara Rose who is making the final confirmation to Filine while she is annoyed.


    He is dressed in a pure white wedding dress and holds on to his occasionally loud chest.


    "It''s beautiful," praised Filine many times, responding to it. So much so that I don''t think Aquasteed will be able to marry me.


    The Tiara Rose wedding dress is adorable in its empire line. The hem area is laced and looks like a fairy of the moon, Philine thinks.


    Let the flowers that the Fairy of the Forest gave me come together in a dress, and Long''s lace dances fluffy because the Fairy of the Sky blessed me.


    The bouquet, made of white flowers, is wrapped around a dark blue ribbon.


    And in the ear - Aquasteed and matching, piercings given to the acari. It also has earrings designed to go with it, and honey pink hair is half-upped.


    "Thank you, Philine. I''m very happy."


    "Yes. Come on, it''s time to enter."


    "... Yep"


    The cathedral door slowly opens.


    - Me, I was scared that I could really get married...


    I don''t care what happens if Aqua chooses Isira at the last minute. All the time, I''ve been thinking.


    But now I don''t have to worry about it anymore.


    This is going to be the wedding of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed.


    The cathedral of the great country Marine Forest is made of stained glass mixed with coral and vitreous on the roof area. The light of the sun and the light of the moon transform everything into a blessed light by accepting the stained glass.


    Both sides of the entrance were fitted with statues of the fairies, impressing on them that it was the country where the fairies lived. The bride and groom of this country are told that they will be blessed and married by fairies.


    "... Dear Aqua"


    At the end of Tiara Rose''s gaze is the figure of Aquasteed dressed in a tuxedo.


    It has a white tone and the accent has a dark blue color close to black. Look at Tiara Rose, it happily Aquasteed smiled.


    At the end of the door, the participants welcome the Tiara Roses.


    Quietly get to your seat and wait for the bride to come in. Filine, who hurried to form near the entrance, had already seen Tiara Rose in tears.


    Laughing at you for being quick, I''m so glad to be celebrated by Filine, who thought you were like my sister.


    This cathedral has two entrances.


    One is the door to happiness where Tiara Rose entered.


    The other is the door to determination that Aquasteed has entered at the same time.


    The blue virgin road, which shows the path that each has taken, is made to intersect in the center of the room and become one path.


    At the end of the alternating virgin road, the gradient becomes a white carpet. There is a desire to dye the colors of the two of us for the rest of our lives.


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed walk slowly towards the center of each other.


    While everyone congratulates the two happy people - one courtier with a crying face somewhere.


    Yes, it''s Isira.


    "Why not? ¡­ My chest hurts so much"


    A small voice that no one can hear leaks out of Isira''s mouth. The orange eyes staring at the two stifled, and the puffiness and large tears spilled.


    I wasn''t in love with Aquasteed myself. Ask yourself why you want so much breast.


    - Me, did you really admire His Highness Aquasteed?


    Haven''t your thoughts ever been about respect?


    All this time, I thought I was. I really don''t swirl and let go when the words that Akali tells me go around inside Isira.


    "... eh, Your Highness Aquasteed"


    His hips floated unconsciously, and Isira tried to take a step forward - shrugging, he grabbed that hand.


    "-!"


    "I won''t let that happen."


    Along with his calm voice, he stopped Isira, whose acari hand was about to rise.


    He opens his eyes to surprise, but sits back in his chair as soon as he realizes what he was about to do. Fortunately, Isira never stood up just because her hips floated a little.


    "Me, what...!


    Realizing what she was about to do, Isira shook her body frighteningly.


    If Akari hadn''t grabbed Isira''s hand and stopped, she would have walked straight to Virgin Road.


    "Dear Isira, you...... I thought you liked Master Aqua?


    "No, I am! No way, such a thing.... but this chest pain - when it''s love, it''s called love. Yes, are you telling me?


    Sometimes, Isira beats faster and rings faster than an early bell.


    Did I already have something called love that I had never known before? Unlike Isira, who showed confusion, the clams were calm.


    - I knew it happened, this event.


    I thought it was unlikely, but it wasn''t zero. In addition, I was also concerned that Isira had been wearing a dark blue ribbon since yesterday.


    In the sequel game, the event occurs that the attacker marries another character.


    But heroin can get in there. The condition is that the wedding be accompanied by a ribbon with that character in mind.


    Tiara Rose is an irregular being, so I didn''t know if there would be an event for the game. However, with the possibility of what if, Akali used all means to attend this wedding.


    "I honestly love an event called Intrusion into a Wedding. ''Cause sometimes, isn''t it? A bridegroom with a bride chooses you. - But I am."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    At a time when music plays inside the cathedral, Akali opens his mouth.


    The attendees are nailed to the bride and groom, so no one notices the interaction between Akali and Isira.


    "More than that - it''s unforgivable to be beaten to the wedding of your best friend who''s laughing happily"


    "Oddly enough, I agree."


    "... Keith the Fairy King!?"


    Keith, who laughed and showed up with a metastasis before Akali and Isira.


    I look around to see if someone saw me, but the acari are relieved that nothing seems to care. That''s because Keith did the divine business of transferring at a moment when people''s gaze was broken, but the acari never noticed.


    "Did you say Isira? If you want to do something to those two, I won''t forgive you."


    ¡­¡­ Meh, that''s not true either. Stay with the Fairy King''s heart. "


    Isira well understands that Tiara Rose is liked by the Fairy King of the Woods.


    Tiara Rose loved by Aquasteed and liked by Keith. Originally, there was no gap for me to get in.


    - For me, you can''t be next to His Highness Aquasteed.


    Yes, is it because I honestly thought in myself? From Isira''s eyes, tears overflowed. But I didn''t raise my voice, I just cried like rain.


    "Sincerely, I''m sorry I couldn''t bless you, Dear Tiara Rose..."


    "It''s okay. Girls just have to cry when they break their hearts."


    "Dear Acari..."


    Softly handing Isira a handkerchief, Akali turned her gaze to two people in the middle of the ceremony.


    The fact that she''s crying isn''t so high a priority for Akali. I thought I would stop crying one of these days, and now I decide to enjoy a nice ceremony.


    "I''ve come to see the moment when Tiara will be happy."


    "That''s an odd encounter. I''m here to bless Tiara, too."


    If Akali smiled and told him what he was here for, Keith agreed with it.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    With the harp playing a beautiful tone, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed came as far as the position where Virgin Road intersects.


    When Aquasteed offers her left arm, Tiara Rose puts more hands on her as she looks embarrassed.


    More than in ancient times, men are supposed to have swords in their right hands to protect their loved ones. Therefore, the bride walks on the left side of the bridegroom. I guess the same story that is commonly passed down in Japan is because this is still the game.


    Walking down Virgin Road, which went from blue to pure white, the priest utters a blessing.


    Weddings from here are slightly different from those from Japan.


    As you can see in the name of the game, this is a maiden game called The Lapis Lazuli Ring. Although the country is already different, the wedding is the same way.


    A man can prepare a ring and put swear magic into it. That''s the wedding in this world.


    I don''t need words for vows.


    Because we can put a deeper bond into the ring than that.


    "Tiara...... It''s a ring with all my magic. Will you take it?


    "Of course, Master Aqua..."


    Sweet aquasteed smile as honey and words.


    Give me your left hand gently, and I''ll put a wedding ring on there.


    Beautifully designed ethanity ring with a thin pink beautiful diamond in the center. As wrapped around it, the jewels creep in gradients from dark blue to light water.


    "Now it''s mine - I''m not letting you go anymore"


    "... Huh!


    Put on the ring and touch with your lips to blur the rinse that touches your pharmacopoeia as it is. Very hot, Tiara Rose dyes her cheeks.


    After you get the ring, the vow from the woman''s side is to speak magically to the man''s forehead.


    The bridegroom gives him a magical ring, and the bride carves her presence into a man. A vow to pour out your magic and stay next to you for life.


    "I won''t let you go either... right?


    "... oh. Like that?"


    "Yes......"


    Aquasteed kneels down in front of Tiara Rose and gently drops his mouth to her forehead.


    Just touch, but a kiss containing magic emits a pale light. Because there was only less magic, Tiara Rose smiles, relieved that she had succeeded safely.


    Rings and magic vows.


    If you do both of these, give me a sweet mouthful at the end......


    "Tiara......"


    "... n"


    Slowly raise the veil and Aquasteed mouths gently to Tiara Rose.


    She is mouthed sweetly and snuggly, and exhales leak from Tiara Rose. As if he didn''t want to let go, Aquasteed''s tongue glances at his lips.


    If I trembled, my lips were released with a tickle of laughter.


    "I love you. Take care of it for the rest of your life and make it happy"


    "Yes, I love you too..."


    The moment the two exchanged words of love, before people''s applause came down - a great light engulfed the cathedral.


    "...... Huh!?"


    Suddenly everyone is surprised and confused. Aquasteed immediately holds Tiara Rose''s body and hides it on her back.


    But soon I realize that this light is not meant to attack us.


    - It''s like, the stars are descending.


    "The next king and queen. Let us bless your healthy happiness and peace in this country!


    "Keith!"


    "Fairy King!


    The cause of the glittering light was Keith''s blessing.


    Aquasteed''s shouting with Fairy King makes the attendees recognize Keith''s presence as Fairy King.


    Tiara Rose was blessed and made queen by the Fairy King of the Woods. And later, as Keith said, she will be the queen of this country.


    "Congratulations, Your Highness Aquasteed!


    "Happy Tiara Rose!!"


    "I''m so happy to bless the Fairy King of the Woods"


    "Wow, wow!


    As soon as possible, a great deal of applause and words of celebration flew from the participants.


    Put away the petals that everyone had in their hands and bless them both.


    "Petals are good"


    If Keith puts his fingers around the pussy, the light hangs over the flower shower petals fluttered by the attendees. Glittering petals danced to the cathedral and lit the light of blessings -.


    "... eh"


    "Are you crying? Tiara."


    "... no, if I did. I''m happy, I''m happy, I can''t stop crying."


    Blessed were many and married to Aquasteed.


    Beating the heroine of the game, Tiara Rose gained happiness. Seeing him embrace himself, Tiara Rose smiles her eyes overflowing with tears.


    Now the game is over.


    Seriously, this is where the real world begins.


    Swinging to the game is now over - ¡­¡­.

 31 1. Sweet newlyweds

    Aquasteed, the king prince of the great Marine Forest, and Tiararose, the marquis''s courtier, who gives Lapis of neighboring Lapis Lazuli. The two became husband and wife this time.


    And now. As the next queen, Tiara Rose has a remarkable day.


    Tiara Rose Lapis Clamentir changed his name to Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest.


    Lapis is worn by that name because Tiara Rose was blessed by Keith, the Fairy King of the Woods.


    Tiara Rose, who became Queen of Aquasteed, was given a new room.


    Each passes between connections, and the bedroom is made of Aquasteed and a single room. This means that we are free to enter and exit both rooms with each other.


    I''m in Tiara Rose''s own room now and I''m in the middle of having a dedicated designer to tailor my dress.


    "You still tailor your dress?


    "Of course, Master Tiara Rose. I am the queen of His Royal Highness Aquasteed, so I will have more official duties in the future, and I still don''t have enough!


    Fluffing her honey pink hair, Tiara Rose is making the final adjustment to her new dress. If you stand like a doll, the needle will fix the dress for you.


    Filine, the samurai, is the one who is compartmentalizing the scene while looking at the dress design paintings.


    I put my hair together later and am serious about which one looks good on Tiara Rose. I think about her more firmly than my husband, Tiara Rose.


    "Are you tired?


    "Adjust the ribbon here and you''ll get some rest."


    - A little, yeah.


    Tiara Rose takes a small breath when she hears the words of the needle and is not yet about to finish.


    The needles that come as day after day, and the nobles and merchants that come to greet the queen of the prince.


    I''m breaking it off that it''s official business too - not at all, I don''t have time to rest.


    Adjust the position of the ribbon attached to your back by extending your spine.


    Although the Princess Line dress may be a little childish, it''s strange because it''s also adorable considering she''s a new wife.


    "We''re done checking position, Dear Tiara Rose. Please relax for once."


    "Thanks"


    Ask slowly to take off the dress and Tiara Rose changes to a ruffled dress to wear only in the middle of tailoring.


    Sitting on the couch, a warm cup of tea is provided.


    "Good day, Dear Tiara Rose. Make adjustments to the last two or so and tailor that dress if you have a design you like. Nevertheless, there will be a night club tomorrow, to the lesser extent possible¡­"


    "Right."


    I sit on the couch with a creep, and I feel dizzy about Philine''s words, which are lively. There are other accessories and cosmetics confirmations, so it''s not funny.


    Tiara Rose, who has spent her time as a marquis, is, of course, used to this hand thing. of - but this time, there were more numbers and harder than usual.


    "We''ve got cake too."


    "Sweets!


    It was a cake made of peaches that was placed on the table.


    She''s had no eyes for sweets - sweets since her last life. I love it.


    Yes -.


    Tiara Rose has memories of her past life.


    I lived as a Japanese, I have memories. And this life falls into the sequel to Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, my favorite maiden game of my previous life.


    The ending as a game is over, so I''m happy now - but from time to time, I''m just a little nervous.


    - I wonder if the power of the game will work now and Master Aqua will like others.


    I don''t usually think of that, Tiara Rose, but I think about it when it''s mundane. Although no one would think that if they saw Aquasteed drowning toward Tiara Rose.


    Include the puffiness peach in your mouth and pound your tongue on its mistletoe. Unexpectedly loose cheeks, Filine laughs satisfactorily as well.


    I love the way Tiara Rose looks happy.


    "Speaking of which, will you be using the kitchen again tonight?


    "Yeah. I''m just gonna make a few cookies. Because Master Aqua said he wanted to eat it."


    "I''ll get you ready."


    Filine nods at Tiara Rose''s words and gives instructions to the maid.


    Well-educated maids all move for their husbands. Filine nods contentedly and drops her gaze on the design painting again.


    For Tiara Rose, who has loved sweets since her last life, the kitchen in this room was prepared by Aquasteed.


    For this reason, all equipment is specially ordered for Tiara Rose only. To be honest with her, the Queen, she doesn''t have much time to cook.


    But Aquasteed, who drowned her, made a kitchen if he noticed, sent her favorite treats and even prepared a dedicated garden.


    How long have you been amazed?


    - Happy, right.


    Laughing at ehehe, Tiara Rose drinks up tea.


    Of course, because Filine told me to adjust my dress. A short break, over.


    "Two after that. Nice to meet you."


    "Leave it to me, Dear Tiara Rose"


    The two needles thanked me and started adjusting my dress.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Doing a hard schedule during the day will give you free time at night.


    From there, it''s Tiara Rose sweet time.


    "I don''t make that many, so why don''t we bake them into pretty shapes?


    Filine lowers and makes sweets in the kitchen provided for the room by herself.


    The truth is, I was told that I would be with you, but Tiara Rose is easy for one because of her previous life''s confectionery knowledge.


    Of course - there are exceptions.


    "Smells good, Tiara."


    Fluffy, embraced to envelop him from behind.


    As I bury my face in Tiara Rose''s throat, I slip over.


    I love it so much, sir.


    "Welcome home, Master Aqua"


    "Yeah. - I''m home, Tiara"


    The man who hugs the cucumber mumbles to Tiara Rose lovingly.


    Aquasteed Marine Forest.


    A king prince of this country, he is the main target of attack in the game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring.


    If it was meant to be, it was supposed to be tied to Isira, the heroine. However, Aquasteed has only stared at Tiara Rose and loved her since her appearance.


    "Mm, that''s kind of cute cookie today. Looks like Tiara."


    "... already. I tried to shape it into an animal."


    Tiara Rose has a cat cookie in her hand. If you bake this later, you''ll be done using all the cookie dough.


    The roasted objects are in the form of cats, rabbits, and turtles.


    I wanted to give Aquasteed a taste of one, reach for the baked cookie - Tiara Rose, tilted her neck.


    "Tiara, what''s wrong?


    "Oh, no.... to give Aqua a taste."


    - Are you out of your mind?


    Tiara Rose picks a rabbit cookie and tries to give it to Aquasteed.


    but that is rejected by the person.


    Shake your head slowly and also understand that Tiara Rose is apparently unwilling to take it.


    "Tiara"


    "... Huh!


    Won''t you eat it? And it was also in the meantime that I was soggy.


    Aquasteed called his name and opened his own mouth.


    He''s suing me in silence.


    It''s not like I''ve never done ahem before, but it still doesn''t make any difference to my embarrassment.


    Tiara Rose, who was raised as a Marquis'' maid, had no such idea.


    "Ugh...... That''s all, isn''t it?


    "Pretty."


    Reddening to his ears, he carried cookies to his sweetening husband''s mouth.


    He eats a crusty rabbit cookie, and then he licks Tiara Rose''s fingertips all the time.


    "Ah! Ah, Master Aqua!


    "''Cause Tiara''s totally sweeter than cookies"


    Aquasteed laughs joyfully, saying it without any evil.


    But Tiara Rose is also a good fit, I guess, because she doesn''t really hate it.


    "Oh, speaking of..."


    "Tiara''s tea party is very popular with the lady, isn''t it?


    Place the last cookie in the oven and cook slowly.


    Watching the dough color, Aquasteed says the Tea Party in the Woods.


    "Isn''t that because sweets are popular?


    "Tiara really likes sweets. I''m going to be jealous."


    "For a treat?


    Ask Aquasteed, laughing that that would just be bad.


    Not self-admiring, but the Tiara Rose treats are very tasty.


    In addition, because I use modern Japanese recipes, I can''t even imitate them that way.


    "Yeah. Confectionery is very popular, of course. Everyone wants to get close to Tiara."


    "Princess Wang, that''s..."


    "No, I''m not."


    I want to be kind to myself, married from another country, because of course I am the queen of Aquasteed, the Crown Prince.


    That''s what Tiara Rose thinks, but Aquasteed denies it so she can cover her words.


    If you look at him in confusion, you try to face each other and get caught in that arm.


    "There''s no way Tiara, protected by the Fairy King of the Woods, is going to be in my mood, is there?


    "But..."


    Here, Marine Forest has a presence called a fairy.


    Forest fairies, sky fairies, sea fairies.


    Tiara Rose was welcomed by the Fairy of the Forest and blessed by the Fairy King of the Forest for the wedding fold.


    If you''re a fairy in the sky or the sea, there''s no problem.


    Even though it is assumed that the fairies of the woods rarely send blessings to people, they blessed them from the top.


    I''d rather tell you not to talk about it, something you can''t.


    "Tiara is underrated when it comes to herself, even though she has a solid upbringing"


    I wish I was more confident. Aquasteed smiled and mouthed gently on his forehead.


    "Is this the Tea Party in the Woods because of Keith''s blessing?


    "I guess. Blessed are the fairy kings of the woods, if only there were one or two of them in the royal family of history."


    Even though I say it myself, Aquasteed whines again saying don''t be jealous.


    The cookies just baked, so I''ll cut this story to a close.


    "I''ll make some tea."


    "Thanks"


    Tiara Rose is watching baked cookies satisfactorily.


    I''m about to have fun trying to get my tea ready right away, so there''s no way I can say I want to be holding you more.


    - My wife, she''s cute.


    Of course, a hug won''t make you refuse.


    I also know that if I spoil it, it will be sweet.


    but also the fact that Tiara Rose really likes sweets.


    Even though it''s sweet time because of this, I think it''s pathetic to interrupt.


    - Well, okay. It''s still a long night.


    "Dear Aqua?


    "Oh, I''m coming."


    Tiara Rose, with cookies and teacups on her tray, looks at Aquasteed in wonder.


    I said I was just thinking, and the two of us left the kitchen behind.

 32 2. The mystery of disappeared treats

    "Hmm?"


    Tiara Rose was roaring while making sweets in her own kitchen.


    Something''s wrong.


    Of course, the kitchen itself is fine. On the contrary, it is even exceptional because Aquasteed made it on special order for Tiara Rose.


    There was a problem with the sweets.


    "I knew there were a few less cookies I just baked"


    The first ten cookies I baked in an attempt to transfer the cookies I baked the second time onto my plate¡­ somehow I was reducing the number to eight.


    The discomfort I felt the other day when I was with Aquasteed was still right.


    - But why does the treat disappear?


    Unbelievable phenomenon, plagues my neck. It''s impossible for someone to break into this room, and there''s no way Filine or any other maid could do that.


    If so, there''s only one person I can think of as a fairy.


    "But if you were a fairy in the woods, you''d tell me to give it to you."


    Totally puzzling to have.


    "Dear Tiara Rose?


    "Ah, Filine"


    Philine, who heard the roar, gently turns to the kitchen. Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at how terrible she spoke because she usually doesn''t get in.


    What''s wrong, sir? And Philine, who looks worried. I don''t know what to do, but I''ve been a samurai with her ever since I was a little girl. I''ll talk to you about the sweets disappearing.


    "Well. The cookies?


    Filine was surprised, but soon accepted Tiara Rose''s words.


    "It doesn''t mean that we make Tiara Rose cookies¡­ are they fairies after all? But you don''t usually take it on your own, do you?


    "Really? So, wonder."


    The fairies in the woods love the treats Tiara Rose makes. But not the kind of kids who steal without permission.


    That''s what I was thinking, and at some point there were seven cookies that had eight.


    Face to face that this is still strange, Tiara Rose, along with Filine, takes her escort Tarmo to the garden.


    Little gardens with adorable pink roses bloom often the forest fairies like to play with.


    A dedicated garden made by Aquasteed for Tiara Rose, which cannot enter without permission of Tiara Rose.


    "I will wait here"


    "Thanks"


    Tarmo stands at the entrance to the garden and provides an escort.


    Built to stay in sight anytime soon, this garden is not that big. When it comes to the use, is it enough for Tiara Rose to have tea with Aquasteed?


    The tea party that Tiara Rose is inviting the lady to have is taking place in another large garden.


    This is why this is a private garden.


    "Oh, there he is."


    "It''s the princess ~!


    "What''s up ~? Let''s play ~!


    The fairies in the woods, who were in the garden, gather under Tiara Rose, laughing.


    The fairies with common green hair love plants so much - they also love the treats she makes.


    "Ah, sweets!


    One of you just discovered a Tiara Rose cookie and asked me to give it a try. Of course it''s good because it''s a cookie I brought for you, but I have to check first.


    I told Tiara Rose to wait just a moment and asked the forest fairies about the disappearing treats.


    "Yikes! Tiara''s treat, is it gone?


    ''I don''t know, if you take it on your own, the king will find you!


    "Right. Thank you, everyone."


    - After all, it doesn''t look like the fairies in the woods did it.


    In the first place, he says the king scolds you for doing something unsolicited. If Keith, the Fairy King of the Woods, is solid, these fairies can''t be the culprits.


    "I knew you weren''t a fairy in the woods,"


    "Right. Or so I am hated by sea fairies and have little to do with sky fairies..."


    I''m totally out of clues.


    But it''s still circumstantially impossible for humans to steal.


    "Why don''t you talk to His Highness Aquasteed?


    "But Master Aqua is busy on the job. I can''t bother you enough that I''m out of sweets."


    Filine makes all the suggestions here, but Tiara Rose shakes her head without force.


    It''s her concern that she doesn''t want to take care of her busy own husband for trivial matters.


    but that''s just what she thinks, not really.


    Aquasteed wants to know anything about Tiara Rose, and she wants me to talk to her about anything she has a problem with.


    Philine, who is feeling that way, laughed bitterly, while recommending to consult again.


    - In the meantime, we have to strengthen our security.


    Make sure Tiara Rose is talking to the fairies, and Filine goes under Tarmo for a security consultation. It''s not a large garden, so speak up low.


    "What''s up?


    "Has anything changed around Master Tiara Rose?


    To Filine''s inquiry, Tarmo recalls with surprise what has happened recently. - But nothing unusual is happening.


    There is nothing suspicious about security. Shake your head quietly and tell it.


    "Something bothering you?


    "Yeah. I don''t know if there''s any hostility, but there''s going to be some change around Master Tiara Rose. May I have your attention, please?"


    "Okay."


    Tarmo nodded at Filine''s words, which were not so many words.


    It can also convey information, such as the sweets disappeared. but then it puts a preconceived view on security. Focused solely on the discomfort felt by the samurai, fate was a bigger case - then you''re in trouble.


    In all around Tiara Rose, you have to be vigilant.


    For one thing, peace of mind, Filine pulls out her shoulder.


    "Philine, did you tell Master Aquasteed?


    "No. I noticed earlier, too. I have not told His Royal Highness - Master Tiara Rose may not want to tell you because she does not want to worry."


    "Right."


    - To His Highness Aquasteed, Tarmo will tell you.


    Now it is Tiara Rose''s exclusive escort, but it is originally near Aquasteed. It would be much more appropriate than Filine.


    Later, he''ll make sure Aquasteed leaves it to him.


    Even if Tiara Rose didn''t say it, I could easily imagine the future of being made to confess sweetly and gently.


    I just imagined it would fill my stomach, but Philine thinks it would actually be sweeter, like honey.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    At night, Aquasteed, who finished his duties, returns home under Tiara Rose.


    I have received reports from Tarmo during the day, so I was also looking forward to seeing how my dear wife would react.


    "Welcome back"


    "I''m home."


    Tiara Rose, who was loosely embroidered on the couch, smiles and turns to Aquasteed.


    "You''re late."


    "No. Good job, good job"


    Aquasteed''s lips touch Tiara Rose''s forehead and hold her tight. It''s like the promise we made when we got home, so Aquasteed is replenishing Tiara Rose.


    In particular, my work has been prolonged today. Usually, time spent relaxing.


    - But I had no choice because I was reviewing Tiara''s security.


    All this, I''m not going to postpone until after tomorrow. If there is an element of anxiety, it should be transferred to execution immediately.


    "Anything happen today?


    "No. I used to adjust my dress and make sweets."


    "Yes."


    Tiara Rose, not going to mention the daytime, smiled and told her it was fine.


    - Damn, she''s cute.


    I don''t know how I''m going to make you confess, but there''s a prank sprout in the aquasteed. Tiara Rose shook her shoulder for a moment when she shouldn''t have laughed.


    "Ah, Aku Asama...?


    "Yeah?"


    Gently smile at Tiara Rose''s voice and stroke her beautiful hair.


    Holding her up in the wind that it was nothing, Aquasteed hands on the door that leads to her bedroom. It''s only a little early to go to bed...


    "Ahhh!


    "What''s up, Tiara?"


    Embraced by Aquasteed''s arms, Tiara Rose dyes her face red.


    - Absolutely, I know!


    Tiara Rose was convinced to see how Aquasteed was doing. Absolutely, you know what happens during the day. Otherwise, they can''t even take you to your bedroom as soon as you get home.


    My instincts told me that I would be spoiled and made to confess everything.


    "In fact, during the day."


    "What, are you going to confess already?


    "Don''t look so sorry..."


    I was going to be cute because of it. Aquasteed chuckles.


    I had no choice but to sit on the couch and listen to Tiara Rose.


    "- That''s what I mean."


    "Confectionery. Indeed, the fairy is a better killer than the idea of man."


    "It is. But the fairies in the woods don''t do that..."


    I nod at Tiara Rose''s words and think of Aquasteed as well.


    - The sea fairy, huh?


    I think of the fairy most likely, simulating in my brain how to confirm, etc.


    If you are an empty fairy, you can be contacted immediately because Aquasteed has blessings, and you are not the kind of race to do those things.


    "I''ll look into it, Tiara won''t have to worry about anything."


    "Dear Aqua...... But you''re busy working, aren''t you? There''s no such thing as my cookies gone, is there?


    "No, you can''t. Tiara''s cookies are mine."


    Aquasteed strokes Tiara Rose''s cheek, laughing that she would be jealous of the treat as well. Mouth him several times to keep stuck and stroke his back to reassure him.


    - Before things get bigger, we have to process them.


    I just want to clean everything up while Tiara Rose thinks it''s a cookie disappearance case. Aquasteed thinks it will escalate step by step.


    It''s hard, but I''m not going to let anyone interrupt my time with Tiara Rose.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    But a few days later, the case develops from a direction I never thought possible.


    Tiara Rose herself witnessed the moment the treat disappeared.


    "Yep!


    From the water supply provided in the kitchen, the sea fairy turned up and took home a piece of cookie...

 33 3. Ahead of Thoughts

    Turns out the sea fairy was the killer who was stealing Tiara Rose treats.


    I can''t hide my surprise that the sea fairy who hates me was bringing it back. Will you bring home handmade treats for those who don''t even like them?


    - Sometimes it''s strange.


    However, Tiara Rose was neat somewhere because the mystery of the disappearing treat had been solved.


    "Thinking?"


    "Oh, no...... I was hated by the fairies of the sea, wondering."


    In a rocking carriage, Aquasteed asked Tiara Rose why.


    The two of them are headed under Isira because of the sea fairy''s involvement in this case. If she is blessed by the sea fairy, she will find out what caused it.


    - Harassment, don''t you think?


    Seeing Tiara Rose looking purely strange, the grin spills. Even though it was stolen by the sea fairies, my pretty wife seemed really easygoing.


    "I hope you know something, Isira."


    "Right. In this country, she''s the one most liked by sea fairies.... I''m sure you''ll help me"


    "Yes."


    Snorted, Tiara Rose sees a view of the sea approaching from outside the window.


    Isila Pearlant, the Duke''s wife. She is the heroine to appear in the sequel to the game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring.


    He chose Tiara Rose, not Isira, although it was supposed to be a position tied to Aquasteed.


    It was on his wedding day that Isira herself realized she liked Aquasteed. The hour was already late and the game of sequels closed quietly......


    Tiara Rose trusts Isira very much.


    She married someone her parents decided to marry. Aquasteed has no romantic feelings. Yes, because I was telling Tiara Rose.


    "But I''m also excited to meet Isira."


    "I''ve been busy lately."


    "Yes, I have sweets for souvenirs today, and they''re perfect"


    Smile back gently with a cute smiling tiara rose and an aqua steed.


    But that thought is backwards to a smile.


    - Miss Isira seems to know something after all.


    Aquasteed recalls the other day. The sweets disappeared from Tiara Rose and I immediately requested an investigation, thinking it was likely the work of the sea fairy.


    But Isira, who is usually fast at work, hasn''t reported back in forever. When I ask for progress, I only get a response that I am investigating.


    Tiara Rose witnessed the fairy of the sea on the arrow tip where she was going to check directly.


    That''s why we''re both going to visit Isira today.


    "... it''s time to get there."


    "Even today, Isira''s sea is beautiful"


    Tiara Rose thinks the sun''s rays reflect glitter into the ocean and it''s like mid-summer when she says it''s spring ahead. Wear a deep hat before getting off the carriage and protect yourself from the sun.


    Escorted by Aquasteed, Tiara Rose slowly stepped out of the carriage.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Welcome. Dear Aquasteed, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "I''m sorry for suddenly."


    They will guide you to the reception room and wait five minutes.


    Straight, pale, watery hair stretched down to the shoulder. Orange eyes are like the light of the sun reflecting on the sea. Loved by the sea, it''s the heroine of the sequel.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, my reply has just been slow...... I apologize for making you feel uneasy"


    "No, never mind"


    - Late reply?


    To Isira''s words, Tiara Rose tilts her neck in her heart. In front of Aquasteed, you can''t show a surprise look no matter what.


    The failure of Tiara Rose, the Queen, leads to Aquasteed, her husband. Don''t be alarmed, though Isira, who is close to you.


    - Maybe Master Aqua realized it was the work of the sea fairy.


    Then it fits what Isira said. I asked to investigate the sea fairy, but I guess Tiara Rose saw the killer before the results came out.


    Aquasteed, too brilliant, always thinks and moves about Tiara Rose.


    "I wonder where to start..."


    "Master Isira?


    Talking spicy, leaning Isira.


    Tiara Rose gets worried about what the hell is going on, but Aquasteed encouraged her to talk.


    In retrospect, Isira has made a mistake.


    ¡­¡­


    It''s hard to have the courage to talk, but you can''t go against Aquasteed, the king''s prince. Isira recalls the other day, as she courageously did.


    The sea fairy loves Isira.


    Because he loved the sea so much, raised fish, and created a vast place of coral blessings.


    For that reason, when Isira is sad, so are the fairies of the sea.


    After the wedding of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, Isira cried alone and quietly in the sea from the grief of her broken heart. Because I thought that if I cried at home, it would be a big deal because I was giving my thoughts to Prince Wang.


    Isira''s father is the Duke. If something goes wrong, it doesn''t.


    But that decision Isira made wasn''t the right one either. The fairy of the sea was saddened that Isira was crying, and thought to harass the Lady of Aquasteed, a thinker.


    Yes. - To Tiara Rose.


    "From what, should I talk to you..."


    I remember the fairy of the sea, but I can''t even say, ''Because I admire Master Aquasteed, I am harassing Master Tiara Rose, the Queen''. There''s no way I can tell you.


    Besides, Tiara Rose doesn''t know that Isira has romantic feelings for Aquasteed. What Isira thinks is that she doesn''t want to worry or hurt you extra.


    Tiara Rose smiles gently at Isira, who is not quite speechless.


    "Dear Isira, don''t think so. If anything happens in the ocean, I''ll cooperate. Hey, Dear Aqua."


    "Oh."


    Aquasteed also nods at Tiara Rose''s words and tells Isira that she is fine.


    "... told the sea fairy to stop stealing sweets. That''s what I''m saying, it doesn''t seem to work very well in my words."


    "It''s the favor of Isira, loved by the sea, is it? Not so long ago, I don''t think there''s any reason to want my treats..."


    The fairies of the sea do not nod to Isira''s request to stop because they are acting for Isira.


    I don''t know what to answer. When Isira is lost, Aquasteed''s words go in from side to side.


    "Tiara''s sweets are special, so I liked the sea fairies."


    "Mm-hmm. Sure, my treats are a little special..."


    Tiara Rose''s confectionery contains her magic.


    For example, the ability to heal naturally is increased, or the underlying physical ability is strengthened. I can get a little effect from the treats.


    It''s just that very few people know about it and the fairies in the woods. Even though I don''t think the sea fairy knows, Tiara Rose is only as likely to be, so I convince her.


    "Then if you say so, I''ll prepare a treat... Yes, Master Isira. Can you tell the sea fairies we''ll have some sweets?


    "Of course I don''t mind that...... I''m going to go under the fairy king of the sea."


    "To the Fairy King of the Sea?


    Suddenly, Tiara Rose opened her eyes to surprise.


    No one is currently receiving the blessing of the Fairy King of the Sea. And, of course, Isira.


    - Does that mean asking the Fairy King of the Sea to stop?


    But it must be very difficult to see the king. It''s the woods, the sea, the sky. There are no very exceptions to which.


    "Isira, have you ever met the Fairy King of the Sea?


    To Aquasteed''s inquiry, Isira shakes her head slowly. I''ve never met the king, though he is so loved by the fairies of the sea.


    "But I know the way to meet the Fairy King of the Sea. The fairy of the sea taught me before."


    "I see. Does Miss Isira mean to ask the Fairy King of the Sea to improve the status quo"


    "- Yes. I''m going to inconvenience you for a while now, can you please give me some more time"


    "Let''s forgive it. Don''t be rude to the king."


    "I understand"


    Ton ''and Aquasteed and Isira both decided on future policies. None of the opinions of Tiara Rose, the person of the day.


    - Can I ask Isira for such a big deal?


    I feel so sorry for you, I look at Aquasteed all the time. Smiled with a grin, he stroked his head. It seemed like they were telling me to leave it at ease.


    "Dear Tiara Rose"


    Hmm and roaring, Isira calls Tiara Rose''s name as she decides to. I couldn''t help but accidentally correct my posture with a serious eye.


    Are you telling me - and Aquasteed is a little surprised, but decides to look aside without stopping.


    "I am the reason why the sea fairy stole Tiara Rose''s treats..."


    "Huh...? To Isira, is it?


    "Yes, I..."


    ¡­¡­


    - Master Isira?


    Tiara Rose tilts her neck at Isira, who is about to say it but has no words. But I found it very hard to say.


    If the cause is on you, it''s obvious that it''s hard to say why. Yet Isira is desperately trying to tell Tiara Rose that.


    For Tiara Rose, that feeling was enough.


    Standing up from the couch, Tiara Rose knelt beside Isira. I peek into Isira, who has leaned over, and smile to reassure her that it''s okay.


    "Dear Isira, you don''t have to tell me. So don''t worry."


    "... Dear Tiara Rose. I''m sorry, I..."


    "Please raise your face. I''m not in so much trouble."


    - About confectionery, I just have to make it again.


    It''s much less nice for Isira to feel hard and hard.


    "Thank you, Dear Tiara Rose. Forgive me for not being able to say why... I will meet the fairy king of the sea."


    - I hope it''s not too surprising.


    With that in mind, Tiara Rose followed Isira''s mansion along with Aquasteed.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Dear Pearl, it''s a Tiara Rose treat!


    "Hmm. I can''t eat human sweets or anything!


    It''s deep in the sea, where the king gets it.


    It''s Pearl the Fairy King of the Sea and the Fairy who have the conversation. Although I have a Tiara Rose treat, Pearl doesn''t look like she cares otherwise.


    This is because the sea fairy is doing it arbitrarily. Pearl doesn''t interfere with each other. Because Isira is not as thoughtful as the fairies of the sea.

 34 4. Customers from the sky

    Tiara Rose morning is early.


    Because I basically have some plans every day, I also spend a lot of time tying my hair and getting dresses done.


    So much so that Philine, the samurai, prepares me every day, but wonders when the hell I''m resting.


    "Philine, you''re not taking the day off at all, are you? It''s not a good idea to push things too hard."


    "Well...... Thank you for your concern, Dear Tiara Rose. But I''ll be fine. I like to take care of Tiara Rose."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I don''t know about that either, but Filine smiled happily as she fixed Tiara Rose''s hair.


    A maid prepares tea as she smiles at them both. Warm drinks are provided in the morning to keep your body from getting cold.


    Take a sip of that and think back to what your plans were for today.


    In the morning, a small tea party invited the noble lady. I''m free this afternoon. It''s been a long time since I''ve only got half a day planned, so I think I''ll be able to take my time this afternoon.


    "Philine, do you have tea party souvenirs?


    "Yep. We have cute shaped muffins, so I think you''ll be satisfied"


    "Thanks"


    We''re inviting three Count''s maids, so we''ll give them sweets as souvenirs on the way home. The treats made by Tiara Rose have a reputation for their appearance and flavour.


    Honestly, I just want to take a little break, but Tiara Rose has been married to this country and the sun is still shallow. I have frequent tea parties to get acquainted with this country.


    In addition, there was a desire to get some information.


    How many aristocrats in this country will purely help Tiara Rose?


    Little by little, I''m trying to lay the groundwork for Tiara Rose so I can help Aquasteed.


    Although, of course, he plans to protect Tiara Rose from everything.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Well, Master Tiara Rose is really good at making sweets. It''s lovely."


    "I think I''ll try again."


    "Yeah, definitely. Because sweets are fun to make."


    Ha ha, talking in a flowery voice are four women, including Tiara Rose. The topic is feminine, about sweets and trendy dresses.


    You''re not so impressed with politics, not from the ladies'' mouths.


    - Then how about a fairy blessing?


    Whoever stole the sweets was a water fairy. Where I want as much information about the fairies as possible. Even if it was common sense content, there may be something Tiara Rose, who has been married to from a neighboring country, doesn''t know.


    "Are you all still with fairies from an early age?


    When Tiara Rose questioned the three ladies, they all snorted.


    "That''s right. Fairy blessings are often received among children. So when I was a kid, I used to play outside a lot."


    "It''s out there with fairies, isn''t it? It''s healthy, and it''s nice."


    I see. Nod.


    Except from out of the country like Tiara Rose, many people seem to get blessings as children.


    "Besides, children are more likely to receive blessings.... because unlike adults, it''s pure"


    As troubling as it is, the lady says as she fans her mouth away.


    I do know better about wanting to congratulate pure, cute kids than adults all over the plan. When you grow up, your chances of being blessed are much less.


    - Then you were lucky I was blessed by the forest fairy.


    When I check with the ladies, they bless the sea fairies. The other had received blessings from the sky fairies.


    "Usually, do you talk to the fairies about anything...?


    "Well, no. Dear Tiara Rose, it''s not something you can talk to fairies about so often."


    "Really?


    Under Tiara Rose, forest fairies come to visit frequently. As a result, the distance between her and the fairy is very close.


    - But Philine certainly hasn''t talked to fairies much.


    Filine is blessed by the sea fairy. But I''ve never seen him talking to a sea fairy, and I didn''t know that this time the killer was a sea fairy.


    "Master Tiara Rose is blessed by the Fairy King of the Forest. It''s something very special."


    "... right? Bless me for marrying you from another country, and you must take care of it."


    Smiling flutterly, Tiara Rose turns her gaze out the window.


    I''m sure there are fairies in the woods near plants and flowers. He loosened the calf and leaves and laughed back at me.


    Then the tea party ended when the ladies asked about the fairies and asked how it was amazing to be blessed by the Fairy King of the Woods.


    Dropping off the ladies, Tiara Rose heads to her own little garden with her feet.


    I don''t have any plans for the afternoon, so I thought I''d take my time reading.


    All the books I read are the history and materials of Marine Forest in this country, so I''m wondering if I can fulfill them and say I''m off...


    It is the history book that contains Filine''s brewed, aromatic tea in her mouth and proceeds to read it today.


    It''s emotional to say it''s a world of maiden games, but it has a solid history long ago.


    Again, I can see that this world is a decent reality, even if it was a game.


    For that reason, Tiara Rose liked to read history books.


    Because I don''t think I''m trapped in the game and live on my own feet properly.


    "... hey, there was such a time"


    "Oh, could it have even written something funny?


    "Yeah. There''s a confectionery tournament. - Yeah?


    A third party voice here, a garden dedicated to Tiara Rose.


    Even though Filine is out of her seat, there must be an escort Tarmo.


    Tiara Rose shifts her gaze to Tarmo before confirming the Lord of her voice.


    - He''s giving me a proper escort.


    But the face was stunnedly eye-opening.


    Tiara Rose, who once again saw the Lord of her voice, breathed into its beauty.


    Straight long blue, stretching to the waist. His eyes glow golden, as if he were a king who sees everything.


    The dusty and smiling beauty laid her back on the chair across from Tiara Rose.


    "Uh, are you...?


    "You didn''t say hello yet, I''m sorry. I''m Claire, the fairy king of the sky."


    "Uh-huh."


    - Fairy King!


    I can''t believe there''s a day when I can see not just Keith, the Fairy King of the Woods, but also the Fairy King of the Sky.


    I can also snort that Tarmo is surprised.


    From time to time, Tiara Rose stood up and thanked her at her finest.


    "Oh, you don''t have to be so hard."


    Don''t you like the rugged atmosphere, the Fairy King of the Skies, Claire, smiles with a grin.


    The gaze then moves to the prepared Tiara Rose handmade treat.


    "If you don''t mind, would you like to have it?


    "Thanks, glad!


    "- We''ve got tea for you."


    Filine, who sensed the situation, brings Claire''s tea to set me up.


    Tiara Rose is purely pleased with what a samurai she has been able to be.


    Seeing Claire add milk, Tiara Rose explains the treat.


    "This is the cheese tart I baked. I use several cheeses together, so I think I can enjoy a different flavour than the cheese I eat as it is."


    "Looks delicious. I love cheese.... Yeah, it''s delicious after all!


    The treat prepared by Tiara Rose was cheese tart.


    It''s not a big one, it''s a cute one made to a big bite size.


    Sakuri fabric is one of Keith''s favorites.


    Crail takes two bites and eats cheese tart elegantly.


    I wonder why she came to this occasion, while I''m glad you could eat the treats you make.


    Tilting his neck, he had clail and eyes on his lid.


    "Hehe, I''ve come to see the princess of Aquasteed."


    ¡­¡­


    - No way, Dear Aqua!


    When I hear that, once I''m in the sensation of being judged, the tension runs.


    What the hell would happen if I was branded unworthy by the Fairy King in the sky?


    Pretending, Tiara Rose''s body trembles.


    The occasional sound of the heart was very loud.


    But such worries are also paid for by Crail.


    "It''s okay. Something else you don''t eat or eat."


    "Ah...... Excuse me, if I may."


    "It''s okay. All of a sudden I shouldn''t have. But I''m glad Aquasteed''s princess is a good girl."


    Reaching for the second cheese tart, Claire says she just wanted to talk a little bit.


    Otherwise, Tiara Rose also pulled out her shoulder strength.


    "You have the magic of this treat, Tiara Rose. Strange, but comfortable"


    "I''m ashamed to say that I''m not good at magic... The only thing I can do well is put a little magic in the treats I make."


    Normally, no one does that to sweets. No, you should tell me there''s no one I can do it.


    Sweet Love Tiara Rose, which is why I can say it''s a skill to be formed.


    So Tiara Rose, who often eats the treats she makes, is health itself.


    Minor injuries, etc., immediately heal naturally. It''s pretty convenient, but it''s not very much because it worries me, but I won''t tell Filine.


    Without a doubt, that should piss you off if you don''t get hurt regardless.


    "Fairies don''t have to eat anything else. So I envy being able to make something so delicious."


    "Dear Clayle..."


    A slightly lonely smile appears in Tiara Rose''s eyes.


    And at the same time, I get the urge to know a lot more sweets.


    I wish it was more widespread because it''s food that makes me so happy.


    "I can always help you, if you like! Delicious treats will also be prepared for Lady Crail."


    "Tiara Rose, you''re sweet. ¡­ then let me sweeten you."


    Claire, who laughs happily, says shyly that she also wanted a girl friend.


    If you say that, even Tiara Rose wants same-sex friends.


    But the identity of the princess king of Tiara Rose stands in the way.


    The ladies who invite you to the tea party will never think of Tiara Rose as a friend.


    If that''s what you think, Tiara Rose and Claire have a difference in status as well - I can understand both feelings, so I decided to sweeten them to Claire''s words.


    The Tea Party between Tiara Rose and Claire, which took place suddenly, became a very serene and enjoyable women''s party.

 35 5. Fairy Kings Palace at the Bottom of the Sea

    Since Tiara Rose and Claire met, the two of them had a little tea party.


    After the second time, it became more lively than the three of us because Aquasteed absolutely told us to call ourselves too.


    Also today, we are having a tea party in the garden dedicated to Tiara Rose.


    "Aquasteed already. It was a sorority with Tiara Rose because of it. If the boys come in, they''ll ruin it!


    "Well said..."


    Take a bite of cookies and watch Aquasteed with a clail sprinkle and eyes. I say it was a sorority because of it.


    As soon as Claire arrives, Tarmo will soon become the Tea Party of the Three for Aquasteed to call.


    Tiara Rose can only smile bitterly watching those two.


    "I''m delighted to make tea with you both."


    "Shit, Tiara Rose is an honest and good kid!


    Claire moves to hug Tiara Rose all the time, but even Aquasteed holds it back and hugs herself.


    - Embarrassing!


    To sudden action, every now and then. I mean, I don''t like the situation where Claire is there but she''s hugged. I''m ashamed, and I just want these things to be done when we''re alone.


    "Dear Aqua, I am ashamed..."


    "But your face looks happy?


    "Ugh..."


    It''s even more embarrassing not to deny it.


    ''Cause I''m happy for what I''m happy for. - But it''s still not good to say before Claire is here. Guru pushes Aquasteed''s chest back and manages to succeed in leaving.


    Too bad, and it''s usual for Aquasteed to say that it doesn''t seem too bad at all. Yes, in fact, these things happen a lot for me. Prince Wang doesn''t care about people at all.


    "Damn, ''cause I''m a lover. It''s just Aquasteed, it''s sloppy."


    "Don''t come any closer to Tiara than you need to. There will be less of my pretty tiara."


    "I won''t lose it!


    Aquasteed doesn''t try to pull a step, though, on Claire, who tells her like she''s scared.


    I''m so happy to be loved, but every day was a tough Tiara Rose, too often.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Isira was swimming deep into the sea, making a spill of air with Kopokopo.


    I''m investigating Aquasteed to report on the sea fairies. The vast and vast sea is like the garden of Isira - but it is still nature. It''s very heavy on the little Isira''s body.


    I couldn''t get the sea fairies to listen to me when I asked them not to steal the Tiara Rose treats.


    Then we''ll have to ask the Fairy King of the Sea directly.


    It is very difficult to meet the king.


    They tend to think you''ll see Keith and Claire right away because they''re casually visiting under Tiara Rose, but it''s actually where you get there after a rough journey.


    "I wonder if I can see you..."


    Until now, Isira has never been in the Fairy King.


    I''m confident I''m loved by the sea fairies, but I don''t think I can see the king. Isira thinks the odds won''t be that high.


    Road directions - is.


    To the place where the Fairy King of the Sea lives, he must dive deep and deep into the sea. If you''re a normal person, it''s very difficult to get there because of the water pressure.


    As a first condition, the blessing of the sea fairies is essential. And you must know the way to where the king is.


    It is unlikely that I will meet the King, even though I have met both.


    "... I''ve never dived so deep into the ocean"


    Unlike the part close to the ground, it is dark and quiet there at the bottom of the sea.


    But I saw the palace in Isira''s sight.


    It was like Dragon Palace Castle. Besides, Isira opened her eyes wide.


    The castle where the fairy king of the sea lived was stretched out in front of him.


    "Wow...... I can''t believe there was such a palace at the bottom of the ocean."


    Hold down the occasional heartbeat and Isira gently approaches the palace. When I think there is a fairy king of the sea here, I get nervous and my body doesn''t move well.


    - But we have to work hard for Master Tiara Rose.


    Push all the way into your fist and knock on the door. Praying for me to react, the door slowly opened without sound.


    Apparently, I''m relieved you''re welcoming Isira.


    "Good."


    I look around for a moment, but I don''t see a fairy.


    No one, shimmering indoors.... Does that mean we keep going? Interpret it that way, Isira goes inside.


    In the palace, there was no sea water.


    It has the same air as the ground and is set up in a great environment. Any condiments made of glitter, coral, etc. are good to see.


    However, waterways are installed on both sides of the aisle. Isira thought it was probably made to guide the weak born fairies who didn''t like the air.


    As Isira progresses, the door opens as she walks. Apparently, he''s giving us directions. Honestly, as the door opened, the luxurious door showed its face.


    "This is where the fairy king is?


    The splendid doors decorated in gold had a majestic atmosphere just because they existed. Nothing should have been done, but the pressure on you is tremendously strong.


    - Without a doubt, here is the Fairy King of the Sea.


    So convinced, Isira gently opens her hands to the door.


    What I was waiting for was a fairy king, as I imagined.


    He sat down on the crimson throne, his eyes staring straight at Isira and capturing her.


    "Well done, Isira."


    ¡­¡­ I''ll be the first to see you. in Isira Pearlant. "


    "Mmm. Wawa is Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea. You''ve been to this palace a lot."


    Kneel immediately and greet Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea.


    Pearl hides his mouth with a fan, saying it doesn''t creep.


    Silver straight hair cut under the shoulder. Like other fairy kings, their eyes shine golden. The multilayered kimono dress adds a great deal of silver, the color of the pearl.


    - Beautiful.


    One of those words was all I could describe to Isira.


    You can say that with a beautiful girl. Is it as good as Isira''s appearance? I wondered if my real age would be much higher, just a little intimacy.


    "- What can I do for you?


    "Ha, ha! Many, I''m afraid, say.... the wife of His Royal Highness Aquasteed Marine Forest, Prince of our kingdom. Tiararose Lapis Marine Forest."


    Isira told the story of the sea fairies having trouble taking Tiara Rose treats on their own. Be careful not to be rude and elaborate.


    After listening to all the stories, Pearl closes his fan and puts it in his mouth.


    "... Hmm. What do you mean," sweets "?


    "Eh -!!"


    And. Fans draw grace or arc, pointing to a certain point. As you can see, Isira''s gaze follows that track as well - what she saw there was a Tiara Rose treat dumped in the trash.


    I breathe unintentionally, but I can''t say what Isira blames Pearl for. Made her angry but last. The sea in this country will be rough.


    That must never be all.


    "... Huh! Hey, why are you doing that?


    "Unfortunately, I hate that tiara rose."


    Squeeze your courage and ask at least why.


    The answer is exactly what Isira expected.


    - But why does Master Pearl hate Master Tiara Rose?


    Has this not happened before, so have you disliked it recently? In Isira, such a question arises.


    "Hey, why, don''t you like Master Tiara Rose? Is it because I am sending my thoughts to Master Aquasteed...?


    The sea fairy knows that Isira likes Aquasteed.


    And I also know that that Aquasteed and Tiara Rose are married. The fact that they both originally loved each other.


    That''s why I hate Tiara Rose for taking Aquasteed from Isira.


    Hearing Isira''s words, Pearl laughs at it with her nose.


    "Isira. Just because you get the blessings of the fairies and you come here - don''t think they''ll give you frivolous blessings, etc!


    "-! Also, I''m sorry"


    As soon as possible, tingly intimidation dominates the area.


    I instantly understand that it was Pearl''s power and realize that my query was wrong. There is a surprise sweat on my back, its body trembling on its knees.


    - Doesn''t Mr. Pearl dislike anything about Mr. Tiara Rose?


    Neither affirmed nor denied, but Pearl''s way of saying it isn''t something he hates about Tiara Rose. Isira didn''t think it was something that could be moved by small human emotions.


    "When, Isira"


    "Ha, ha!


    "Oh dear...... are you familiar with the surroundings of Tiara Rose?


    "? Yes, somewhat..."


    In a sudden inquiry, Isira is anxious to find out what is going on. I didn''t think you were particularly concerned, it''s the subject of Tiara Rose.


    When it comes to the surroundings, I still only think of Aquasteed. But Pearl shouldn''t even care about Isira''s romance.


    "Hmm. So do you know what''s going on with Claire?


    "Ku, is it Master Crail? I''m sorry, I don''t know him."


    - Who?


    Dear Tiara Rose''s lead samurai is Filine, and the escort is Tarmo. There''s no one near Aquasteed by the name of Claire either.


    Rather, there is no one in the nobility of this country named Crail. Isira, the Duke''s Lady, remembers all her knowledge of the nobility of this country.


    Spread the fan in your hand, Pearl sighs one thing.


    "What. Said it paved the way to here because of it, but it''s useless."


    "Sorry......"


    "Well, good. Claire doesn''t come here at all for tea or anything!


    Shaking her lustrous silver hair, Pearl rises from the throne.


    - Did Mr. Tiara Rose take someone named Claire?


    But I have no idea who Claire is. Aquasteed might know, so I think I need to confirm.


    "If you don''t know anything, that''s good enough. - Go home."


    "- Huh!?"


    Pearl''s cold eyes and words.


    Isira was instantly sent back from the bottom of the sea to the ground - ¡­.

 36 6. Coral tea

    A tea party was held on the basis of a report by Isira, who met the Fairy King of the Sea.


    A cake made by Tiara Rose is served in the reception room with delicious tea.


    I''m a member of Tiara Rose, Aquasteed and Isira because I talk about sea fairies stealing Tiara Rose treats.


    In front of the door stands Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, their respective escorts.


    But the tea party air under the name of the debriefing was not a very good one.


    Tiara Rose grates in more and more of Isira''s air. Isira was shocked that the Fairy King of the Sea could not accept her.


    She was the most beloved sea fairy in this country. I guess I was confident that I could get along with the Fairy King as well -.


    "You''re the king of fairies. Even if the fairies like it, it''s hard to be accepted by the king. Yes, I won''t be depressed."


    "... Yep"


    Isira nodded powerlessly at Aquasteed that such a thing was normal.


    "Dear Isira...... ''Cause I''m not very well thought out by the sea fairies, either."


    "Dear Tiara Rose, thank you"


    The fairies like it, including the Fairy King in the Woods. But it''s tiara rose hated by sea fairies.


    I miss that a little bit, but I also find it glaring that all fairies want to like me.


    Of course, it''s my favorite maiden game. It''s not like I don''t have a desire to be liked by all things. But there''s a loved one named Aquasteed.


    More than that, Tiara Rose is not even slightly dusty about trying to greed something.


    "I met the fairy king of the sea, and he chased me back, and I thought I''d dive into the sea again. Over and over again..."


    Isira squeezes her hand firmly on her knees.


    Even though I can''t seem to tell you, I''ll talk to you slowly.


    "- But I was not allowed to reach the house of the Fairy King. No matter how deep you dive into the ocean, there has always been only the ocean."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose gently offered a handkerchief to Isira, who cried tears at her eyes. I hope you don''t think too much, though I may not be able to tell you not to worry.


    In gratitude, Isira held her eyes with a handkerchief.


    In the meantime, the conclusion is that we have not been able to resolve anything - - is the current situation.


    Tiara Rose doesn''t see the problem that far because the treats are just stolen, but as an aquasteed it doesn''t either.


    My dear wife''s treats were stolen and I''m not sure what will happen in the future. Anxiety factors should only be eliminated.


    "In this case, move even on me -... Claire?


    Isira couldn''t get the information, so she moves. Yes, when Aquasteed was thinking, the indoor air moved unexpectedly.


    Knowing immediately what had happened, Aquasteed called the name.


    "Hehe, I''m here to play"


    "Dear Claire!


    It was Crail the Fairy King in the sky who showed up.


    When Tiara Rose calls the name with joy, another dissatisfied voice enters her ear from the side.


    "What, you ignore me?


    "Keith!


    Fairy King Claire in the sky and Fairy King Keith in the woods. They both showed up at the same time.


    Tiara Rose raised her voice of surprise and Isira was dwarfing herself because of the appearance of such an amazing figure.


    "I heard you were having tea with Claire recently. Long time no see, Tiara."


    "It''s been a while. That I could see the Fairy King of the Woods again -"


    "No hard greetings. Well, you look happy more than anything."


    Tiara Rose and Keith face-to-face since the wedding.


    Tiara Rose thanked the Fairy King, but Keith didn''t like what he did.


    I sat back somewhere in the empty chair and grabbed the teapot I had on the desk and made myself some tea.


    Tiara Rose laughed bitterly that it sounded like Keith, though she wanted to make you about tea.


    Drink up all at once, make a proper noise and a teacup is placed.


    Claire says, "I don''t know," but Keith doesn''t give a shit.


    "More than that, we have souvenirs today, don''t we?


    "You''re a fairy king too, so can''t you be more polite? Oh, yeah. I brought you some coral tea today."


    Two fairy kings who advance the story with no concern around them at all.


    Tiara Rose asks Philine, who had refrained, to prepare a new teacup. It''s a kind of tea I''ve never heard of, but what the hell is it like?


    Intrigued, I see the wrap Crail took out.


    "You''re the fairy king of the sky, but you''re the coral tea?


    Aquasteed sees Claire like a lot.


    The Fairy King is basically strongly linked to his forest, sky, sea and anything related to it. Speaking of corals, Pearl, the fairy king of the sea, lives in the sea.


    It is uncomfortable for Claire, the fairy king of the sky, to bring it as a souvenir.


    "That''s right ~! That said, it''s from Pearl. It''s delicious, so I recommend it."


    It was the little coral that was removed from the bag.


    Put that in a newly prepared teacup. Pouring hot water from above spreads the scent of a fluffy sea and the scent of a sweet flower.


    When Tiara Rose accidentally leaked her voice as "wow," Claire grinned.


    "Isn''t it? It''s my favorite."


    Claire laughing so hard, she seemed so happy.


    Move next to Tiara Rose and explain that it is delicious to add milk. - - but is inhibited by the aquastides that have stood up and traveled.


    I held Tiara Rose toward myself for a long time and drove Claire away with my hand.


    "Ah, Dear Aqua ?"


    "Tiara is my wife. Don''t get too close."


    "No more Aquasteed."


    Tiara Rose occasionally turns to Aquasteed, who rounds out her appetite for exclusivity like a child. In public, they don''t act so bold.


    - You don''t like me and Lady Claire getting along so much?


    I don''t know why on earth, but there''s no sign of an answer at all. Leaning his neck, he did not escape from Aquasteed''s arms.


    Because it''s also true that I felt ashamed, but happy.


    "I''m really drowning... Hehe, I envy you."


    I had no choice but to lower my back to the other seats, and Claire will prepare tea for everyone.


    Isira received it in awe and opened her eyes to wonder if she could do this on the coral. When it comes to corals in this country, it''s because what Isira is growing is the best.


    But she doesn''t know how to make tea from corals. If the Fairy King of the Sea likes it, I''m disappointed that he could have done these things as well.


    "Look, Keith about his seat, too. Speaking of which, I was disturbed all of a sudden, but I was probably busy."


    After finishing all the setups, Claire looked around properly.


    We used to have tea parties with three people, Tiara Rose, Aquasteed and Crail. I guess I found someone named Isira that I didn''t expect, and I thought I had.


    Aquasteed shook his head to give up and said, "It''s okay."


    Then I had a tea party again - and there was a proper little water noise.


    They''re all like, "Hmm?" Tilting his neck, Pearl, the little sea fairy king, had his face out of the teacup.


    What you know about Pearl is Claire and Keith, the fairy kings. And only Isira, who visited the palace and had a conversation.


    Isira opened her eyes wide open because she never thought she would see her again.


    Claire smiles happily and lifts the teacup where Pearl appeared.


    "Heh heh, I thought I''d see you when I used coral tea."


    ¡­¡­


    But Pearl just returned a muffled look, trying to utter nothing.


    "Uh, Master Claire? That person..."


    "Oh, you''ve never seen Tiara Rose before. Pearl, the fairy king of the sea."


    In a subtle atmosphere, Tiara Rose opens her mouth with a snack. Knowing that he is so the fairy king of the sea, his chest pulses every now and then.


    I didn''t think you''d get to know the Fairy King of the Sea. That seemed to be the same for Aquasteed, who immediately stood up and thanked Pearl.


    Pearl, however, ignores those two in a snarky fashion and stares at Kick-Ass Claire.


    "Pearl, what are you so angry about? No, I have to return my greetings properly..."


    Pearl finally opens his mouth as Claire asks in trouble.


    "Don''t give me any orders! Be such a good girl to a man!!"


    "Pearl......"


    To the suddenly poked truth, Tiara Rose raises her voice in surprise and low.


    I can''t believe the beautiful woman I always had tea with was a man or something... not very, but I didn''t think so.


    - But Master Aqua was jealous of Master Crail... Could Aqua have considered Lady Crayle a man?


    Such a hypothesis occurred in Tiara Rose.


    That''s why Aquasteed told Tiara Rose not to see Claire alone. If he was a woman, he would not say anything as irrational as that.


    - That''s the Fairy King, all very dark in character.


    I''m a handsome woman, Oneh, and a girl like the princess who calls herself a jerk. That''s the sequel to the most popular maiden game. Thinking about it, oddly enough, I could convince myself of this dark character as well.


    "I wish it was by Claire!


    "Huh!"


    Pearl uttered so many words, and again made a puffy noise and disappeared from the teacup.


    Tiara Rose, who has seen such a thing, has no choice but to be pompous.


    And pompous and squeaky, Claire''s little words.


    A slightly lower, neutral voice than usual.


    "I said I didn''t like men, so I thought I could get along with Pearl if I looked like this."

 37 7. Fairy Kings Trouble

    "Uh..."


    The Fairy King of the Sea Pearl disappears and the Fairy King of the Sky Crail looks soggy and lonely. The tea party, which was fun, had a nice quiet atmosphere, and Tiara Rose rushed to grate.


    - Does Master Claire like you about Mr. Pearl?


    For her, who hates men, wear women''s clothes.... TiaraRose thinks this is not something that can be done so easily. Though he seemed to like it a little bit and do it.


    "Damn, you''re a pain in the ass."


    "Aquasteed......"


    Sighing at him, Aquasteed tells Isira to leave. We can''t let the Duke''s lady hear about this kind of problem.


    Besides, Isira can''t solve this problem. That conclusion has already been drawn within Aquasteed. I decided I didn''t need to talk any more.


    Thank you and make sure Isira exits before Aquasteed sits back on the couch. If I turned my gaze to Claire, I took a sip of tea and then started talking.


    "Well, I''m a man, as you can see"


    "As you can see, it must be a woman."


    "Oh..."


    Claire laughs as she twirls her own hair and plays with her fingers. Speaking of which, he tells me that he was dressed like a woman, as if he''d forgotten.


    Instead, the situation may have become commonplace and he is not even aware of himself.


    To Tiara Rose, Claire re-brews the coral tea while continuing to say that I wasn''t hiding it...


    "No...... Don''t worry about me. Besides, it''s fun to talk to Master Claire."


    "Thank you, you''re so sweet"


    "Tiara''s a good woman, isn''t she?


    "Very."


    Keith laughs over a cup of tea, and next to it Aquasteed draws Tiara Rose toward herself. Don''t target your own wife, I stared at the fairy king.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "Tiara wields too much affection for everyone"


    "Ha, you have to hold on tight."


    "Keith!"


    - Oh, my God, this fairy king!


    Tiara Rose is, of course, an Aquasteed. It is best to keep Aquasteed from becoming anxious so that he becomes anxious.


    So I''ll tell Keith not to say anything extra.


    "Well, well. So, what are you gonna do with Claire? Do you like pearls that much?"


    ¡­¡­


    To Keith''s words, Tiara Rose swallows the words. It''s not like I can say anything, and I didn''t think it was a good idea to talk about Claire and Pearl.


    - Lady Claire''s, one-sided?


    But aren''t you both one-sided when you see how that goes? And I think. Sometimes it may be difficult to see each other too often because you are the fairy king of the sky and the sea.


    Hopefully there won''t be much difference...... I wonder if it''s okay to just be next to Aquasteed myself, and I''m sorry.


    "Don''t look like that, Tiara Rose. Because I''m fine."


    "! Dear Claire..."


    As for my face being cloudy, I rush to make a smile. Aquasteed says, "I don''t care," and he strokes his head.


    Still, it''s Tiara Rose who cares, but Aquasteed blocks her mouth with a treat before she says anything.


    "Mmm!


    "Hehe. Tiara Rose just needs to eat her sweets slowly and look happy."


    The dust and laughter made Claire speak the rest.


    "Right. I like pearls, but pearls don''t like guys, as you can see, do they? That''s why they hate me, too."


    - Absolutely, that''s a mistake!


    I cry out loud in my heart, but I can''t talk because I have sweets in my mouth.


    Apparently Aquasteed and Keith have the same idea as Tiara Rose. I see two people laughing small enough not to speak up.


    "Well, he hates men because they''re muscled. As much as I dressed as a woman, they wouldn''t like it."


    "Isn''t it? But I worked so hard, didn''t I?


    ".................. n"


    I hurried and swallowed the sweets, and Tiara Rose tried to speak up - Aquasteed''s fingers gently touched my lips.


    "Huh!"


    "Shit, Tiara."


    "Dear Aqua? But then, Master Crail..."


    Turn your voice down unconsciously and tilt your neck wondering why you shouldn''t tell.


    Yeah, I think the two of them need some outside push, too. But Aquasteed doesn''t seem to think that''s a good idea.


    "It''s not that easy for us humans to step in about the fairy kings"


    "That''s... yes..."


    But isn''t that pathetic for Claire and Pearl?


    Tiara Rose squeaks her gaze at Claire, who is arguing with Keith. I hope you realize soon that you don''t hate me.


    - Or I wish Keith could tell you!


    Tiara Rose sighs small as she hits the fairy king of the woods with her discolored feelings. But at the same time, when I look at two people like my best friend, I still don''t think it''s a good idea for an outsider to squeeze himself out.


    "Totally. Keith doesn''t take it easy."


    "Hmm. You''re a dustbin ''troublemaker"


    "Fine, that personality"


    After a sigh of relief, Claire drank tea. Eat the Tiara Rose Recommended Cake and pound your tongue drum that it tastes good.


    "It''s okay. Pearl and I are slowly shrinking, as always."


    "Heh heh. Good luck with that."


    We don''t need to talk about ourselves anymore, and Claire shook her head.


    Keith flushes it, as usual.


    "Well, not today. I''m leaving, Keith."


    "Me too."


    "That''s right. You two are still newlyweds, so it wouldn''t be nice for us to get in the way too much, would it?


    "... for what it''s worth, you come a lot."


    If Aquasteed laughs at Crail''s words, Fluffy and Crail laugh.


    "Oh, yeah. Maybe I should give Pearl something. Hey, Tiara Rose. I was wondering if you could go shopping with me soon."


    "You..."


    "If it''s okay with me, I''ll be happy"


    Tiara Rose snorts back before Aquasteed stops. Huh, sighing, Aquasteed muttered, "I''m going, too.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The unmatched tea party of the three fairy kings is over - Tiara Rose takes a relaxing bath and relieves her of the day''s fatigue.


    "Ha hoo..."


    Put about half your face on hot water, puffy and close your eyes.


    Thinking about Claire and Pearl. We both wish we were more honest... I think so.


    - No, is Master Claire being too honest?


    That''s why I''m trying to get along with Pearl until I''m dressed as a woman.


    "Love is hard..."


    Even I had a lot of problems with Aquasteed. Claire must be worried about Pearl in the same way. And Pearl.


    "I mean, I''m surprised you''re a man. I don''t care what you think, she was the perfect beauty..."


    As for that, I was somewhat shocked as a woman. I thought the man was so beautiful. That''s the world of maiden games, no one can help but be too attractive.


    And then, one thought crosses the back of my brain.


    "Doesn''t Master Pearl like that I''m having a tea party with the Crails looking fun?


    "That''s right!!"


    "Uh-huh!


    The moment Tiara Rose uttered her words, words besides herself cling to the bathroom.


    I don''t need to think about it from anywhere. From the hot tub, a pearl with a soggy face appeared.


    - As it were, no way the Fairy King of the Sea himself!


    If you''re surprised at the development you didn''t think at all, Aquasteed''s voice immediately calls Tiara Rose. At the same time you will hear footsteps and will undoubtedly come to the bathroom as they are.


    "It''s nothing, it''s okay," he says in a hurry to control Aquasteed.


    "Huh! I didn''t expect a man to come as soon as I screamed."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Pearl who was supposed to be saying disgust, but I could see envy in those eyes.


    Tiara Rose worries about what to do and opens her mouth to try and talk normally.


    "Master Pearl, would you like to join us for a tea party?


    "Hey, what are you talking about! There''s no way I''m going to have tea with you."


    "I will also call Master Crail. That way, it''ll be fun. Master Claire, she said she met Mr. Pearl very much, didn''t she?


    "Hmm."


    Instead - make an invitation to the Tea Party in a direct ball match. But the answer to return is no. If we don''t have human time and tea, is that what this is about?


    While I''m in trouble, I guess Pearl can''t help but wonder because he put his face on here.


    "Don''t ask the Fairy King out for tea at will, Wataru came to say it. Turn yourself around!


    "Ha ha..."


    Keith and Claire came under Tiara Rose from themselves. I''m not inviting you from this side by mistake......


    But that doesn''t work for Pearl. If she, the fairy king of the sea, says so, for the sea it becomes similar to the fact.


    "I''m going to do this today, but if it''s going to get any worse, I have an idea!


    "Dear Pearl, I am"


    "Shut up! Do not defy me, the fairy king of the sea! Stay away from the King, Claire!


    "... Huh!


    Freshly spoken, Pearl disappeared intact.


    I''ve promised to shop with Claire - and I hold my head to see what''s going on.


    "But she''s cuter than I thought she was, Master Pearl"


    He said he was the Fairy King, but eventually he gave his name to Claire and only one of the two remaining.


    "Even though I don''t take Lady Claire from Lady Pearl.... maybe it''s close to both of us thinking about it?


    If I think so, I''m not at all concerned about the confectionery theft that''s been done. Purely, Tiara Rose thought she wanted to support those two.


    Tell Pearl that you met him and try to take a bath thinking that shopping was a cancellation for now - you must have heard Pearl''s shitty voice. Aquasteed made a face.


    "Tiara, Daiji -"


    "~ ~ ~ ~!?"


    Screaming without a voice, Tiara Rose sprinkles Aquasteed with thoughtful hot water. I was embarrassed and in an instant my face turned red - ¡­.

 38 8. Pearl Sea

    Claire likes pearls.


    Pearl likes Claire.


    This is definitely a matter of decision - but this romance is so wrong.


    Tiara Rose drinks a relaxing cup of tea in her room and wonders if she can still do something to help.


    - But it''s not very good for me to talk about the Fairy King, is it?


    I remember what they said at the tea party yesterday.


    "What have you done with such a troubled face?


    "Filine...... I wish I had two one-sided people to help me."


    "Well..."


    That''s what it is. Filine speaks up.


    "But isn''t that fun?


    "Hmmm......"


    Sure, I wish both thoughts were sweet and sour memories, but those two are totally screwed up.


    This will definitely not be fun.


    - Though I think Master Clayle could use more guns.


    Philine laughs happily when she sees Tiara Rose troubled that way.


    "I''m glad I''ve been able to afford it because I''ve been so full of myself."


    "... sure, right? I''ve had plenty of them."


    Aquasteed and I have become a formal couple, which is why we can stay calm now. From the first culpable event, I think you were worried about Filine all the time.


    "Speaking of which, you''re going shopping soon, right? Adjust your plans."


    "Oh, I stopped doing that."


    "Did you stop...?


    Tiara Rose shakes her head without force before Filine finishes her talk.


    The three of us, Claire and Aquasteed, were going to go buy a present for Pearl... but yesterday I figured I shouldn''t go because of how she showed up in the bath.


    - Sure, you don''t like it if someone you like is shopping with someone else.


    For once, Aquasteed was with me, but it didn''t seem like Pearl had it in his eyes.


    "We have to tell Lady Claire sooner rather than later."


    "Oh, did you call?


    "Huh... Huh!? Dear Claire!


    "I''m here to talk to you about shopping!"


    What a time, Tiara Rose breathes softly as she suppresses her temples. I had planned to put in a no contact via Aquasteed, but I wasn''t expecting to come the next day.


    Keith would be convinced of the sudden behavior, but he didn''t think Claire was the type to try to move things forward too quickly.


    - After all, Mr. Pearl is special, huh?


    Think of it that way, I think Master Claire is cute too. Tiara Rose thinks all the girls in love are cute.


    Well, the contents are not men when it comes to clail......


    Tell Filine to call Aquasteed, and Tiara Rose will prepare sweets and tea in the kitchen provided in her own room.


    I wasn''t going to say no to shopping, but I can''t leave the fairy king I''ve been visiting without. The Fairy King''s position is more absolute than human.


    "Hehe, you''re in trouble for Aquasteed too. Don''t be alone with me, my God, you''re too monopolistic. Hey?"


    "Uh..."


    To Claire''s words, Tiara Rose can only smile bitterly.


    Because there''s nothing at all I don''t like, and I''d rather even want you to have more monopoly - it''s serious.


    Look at Tiara Rose with a red face, and Claire laughs "Oh".


    "That was a useless worry. You two look happy, and I''m happy too."


    "... thank you"


    "I, too, have to work hard to pick a present for Pearl! Gifts for girls don''t know what to do."


    To Claire I''m looking forward to, I can''t go with her anymore - and it''s hard to say.


    Honestly, Pearl is jealous, so there''s no way I can say it.


    I was in trouble to figure out what to do, and Aquasteed turned up.


    "I didn''t know it was coming yesterday today...... Even Tiara gets tired, so weigh in a little more."


    "Oh no, I would have lost it if I had. I''m sorry, Tiara Rose."


    Listening to Aquasteed''s words, Claire honestly uttered words of apology.


    Being fairy kings, they don''t get tired without much leeway. Because power, life, is strong out of step with humans.


    "No, I''m fine. - Well, I don''t know..."


    "Tiara?"


    "Tiara Rose?"


    Somehow, I have to tell him that we can''t be together. Putting much effort into his fist, Tiara Rose looks straight at Claire.


    "I cannot go with you in choosing a gift for Pearl."


    "... why? You didn''t like it?


    From the clail I heard Tiara Rose say, a tingly little harsh air flows.


    He, the fairy king of the sky, has the greatest influence on the atmosphere, on the sky.


    Unexpectedly shaking his shoulder, Aquasteed holds Tiara Rose and restrains Crail.


    "Listen to the end of the story. Tiara would be scared, wouldn''t she?


    "- Right. I''m sorry, Tiara Rose."


    "Yes, no eh! My way of saying it was bad. Sorry for the misunderstanding."


    Once, apologize to Claire before continuing the conversation.


    "I thought gifts for women I liked should not be bought by other women with me. Lady Crayle would be more than happy to be chosen."


    "That''s what happened...... But I''m hated by Pearl, right?


    "Still, it''s the women who don''t like it."


    It also contains the subjectivity of Tiara Rose, but unfortunately it is Aquasteed and Crail who are here.


    There will be no problem if you push it through as a female opinion representative.


    Philine is a samurai, so she never comes into this conversation.


    "That''s the woman..."


    Claire was surprised that there was no idea at all.


    He showed a slightly troubled sleigh, and nodded loudly, all right.


    "Then I''ll go shopping alone! Thank you, Tiara Rose"


    "No, I''m sorry I said so many things..."


    "I''m so glad. Just keep up the good work, okay?


    "Of course!


    Aquasteed sighed loudly when he saw the two of them squirting.


    Even if you look like a woman, Claire is a clean man. I was going to complain later about not being too Tiara Rose......


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Shopping alone is kind of fresh."


    Claire broke up with the Tiara Roses and came to the city to shop.


    Aquasteed told me about the royal shop, and I''m going to pick a gift for Pearl there.


    On a sepia-colored roof, glass show windows are lined with beautiful accessories.


    Claire smiles naturally that all of them are fine and would look great on Pearl, the king.


    When I stepped into the store, there were many more items.


    Among other things, coral accessories stop in Crail''s eyes.


    - Pearls look good on corals.


    The colorful vibrant suits her well in Japanese costumes.


    When you unintentionally imagine the look, Claire''s heart gets pouty and warm.


    "hehe, would you be happy"


    "Welcome. Looking for a gift?


    "Yeah, it is. Trying to make it coral-based."


    A clerk in a black suit responds politely.


    Remove the coral accessories from the showcase and carefully arrange them one by one before the crail.


    "I wonder what the color will be.... nice red, but nice sky and sea colors too"


    And white or blue?


    Bright white is nice, too. Pearls are going to wear any color, I think, Claire.


    "If that''s the case, there''s also a gradient."


    "Oh, that''s beautiful..."


    What the clerk offered was a hair decoration made from a combination of lighter and lighter colored corals, starting with blue corals.


    When I put it on, the coral makes a sound, it was made like that.


    The lower part is bright white, so it would also appear in dark colored clothes.


    "This is good! I''ll take it."


    "Thank you"


    The instant Claire just moved her gaze to see if there was anything else - very cute, I found the brooch.


    "Oh no, this brooch of flowers is adorable. Looks good on Tiara Rose! Wrap this up too."


    "Yes, sir."


    "That''s right, we got along. Perhaps we should align."


    The brooch of flowers found by Crail was available in a variety of colors.


    The one I chose for Tiara Rose is a pink flower. It would suit her honey pink hair well.


    - But would Aquasteed be jealous if I gave Tiara Rose a gift?


    I think about it, but I have already told her to wrap it, so I decided to buy it.


    I wonder which one my share is, and Claire starts choosing, and the sensation of frivolity strikes him.


    "Huh? This feeling, the sea is rough...?


    Could something have happened to Pearl? Claire immediately jumped out of the store and turned her gaze in the direction of the sea.


    Still, people in the city have not noticed because of the distance from the sea.


    - Why the hell not?


    Claire bites her lips tight.


    Crail looking happy to buy Pearl''s gift.


    Nobody knows it''s Pearl''s Rampage that I mistook to give it all to Tiara Rose yet -...

 39 9. Secret Medicine of the Sea

    Even though it was a calm sky, the sea changed color deeply and the waves made loud noises.


    Seeing a situation like never before, Isira''s body shudders.


    "What the hell is in the ocean..."


    Isira is the most beloved sea fairy in this country. She always stands in front of you when it comes to the ocean.


    But when I look at my sea, I think of Pearl, the fairy king of the sea, and his fairies.


    - I am not recognized by the Fairy King of the sea.


    On the contrary, it would not be an exaggeration to say that you hate me.


    Isira once obtained permission to enter the palace, but after that she could not catch a glimpse of the king''s palace no matter how many times she dived into the sea.


    "In the meantime, I need to tell Master Aquasteed right away!


    Isira tries to turn her heel back, but notices a little discomfort. I''m just trying to figure out what the hell it is, and I realize it''s the sea fairies.


    The fairies, who looked like little mermaids, put their faces on the water.


    "Isira! King, I''m angry"


    "You''re mad!


    "The Fairy King!? What the hell is going on?


    Pearl himself doesn''t have good feelings for Isira, but the sea fairies love Isira. So much so that you and Aquasteed were supportive of each other.


    The fairies were always reporting and consulting Isira about what happened in the ocean. It''s the same this time, but I guess it''s not the usual ratio to see how you panic.


    "Don''t do this."


    "Ah, the king!


    "! Fairy King of the Sea"


    Surprised by the pearl that suddenly appeared, Isira kneels in panic. I never thought I''d be able to see it again.


    "Hmm. Tiara Rose is a woman who doesn''t care. Leave Claire alone!


    ¡­¡­


    "Isira."


    "Ha, ha!


    Up from the sea level with a pastry, Pearl sees Isira with cold eyes. And reveal that anger against Tiara Rose, who is trying to take the clail away from herself.


    "Lord, pull Aquasteed away from Tiara Rose. That''s a tough guy."


    "Huh? What the hell is that..."


    "Hmm. That''s not what your Lord needs to know. I''ll do this, you can mix it with tea."


    Pearl didn''t want to keep Tiara Rose alive trying to take Crail away from herself.


    - Without Tiara Rose, Claire would be frightened...


    Squeezing his fist tightly, Pearl hands Isira a vial with pink liquid. You can''t just not accept what the Fairy King has offered you. Pearl receives it with both hands and stares at the vial.


    Isira had no idea what the hell was in it.


    "Fairy King, Dear Pearl. This..."


    "Nothing, it''s a little pill. No harm done, and the effect will soon expire."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    They say it''s a little medicine, and Isira is confused.


    I cannot do that to Aquasteed, the Prince of my own country, but it is the fairy king who is presiding over the sea who is giving instructions. It''s so easy, I can''t say no.


    What can I do - Isira worries, distorts her expression. You cannot serve suspicious medicines to the person you serve. However, it is said that the effect will soon expire without harm.


    Still.


    "I''m sorry, Master Pearl. I cannot betray Master Aquasteed!


    Still, my little thoughts are in Isira''s mind.


    I never want to do anything to Aquasteed, even if it''s harmless. Yes, the hot loose Isira eyes tell Pearl.


    "... well. Until we do it on our own. Water."


    "Huh!? KYYYYYY!!"


    As Pearl raised his right hand, the sea water turned the universe into a floating blade - directed towards Isira. The water cleaves the back of Isira''s hand, and red blood runs down.


    Pearl took away the vial I had just given him, and there he took a drop of Isira''s blood and changed the color of the liquid.


    "! Yes, what the hell did you do......"


    "Hmm. The fairies love you. Besides, it was convenient because I was nearby."


    ¡­¡­


    Seeing the tickling, laughing pearl makes Isira anxious.


    What the hell is this fairy king trying to do? I wanted to give him a voice to stop right away, but the tingly cold air released by Pearl won''t let him do it.


    But at the same time - the voice I''ve been waiting for reaches Pearl''s ear.


    "Pearl! What the hell is wrong with you!?"


    "... Crail. Hmm, nothing to talk about frivolously!


    "Oh, don''t wait!


    Crail falling from the sky calls Pearl, but he disappears into the sea without asking anything. We headed to the castle to drink the liquid from Isira''s blood, which we had just obtained, to Aquasteed.


    Claire breathes when she sees where Pearl disappears.


    "What the hell are you talking about already? Why are the pearls so rough..."


    I wish you could tell me why.


    That''s what I think, Claire, but I immediately notice Isira''s presence. Claire knows everything about this country because of her role as an Aquasteed source.


    Isira, who saw herself at a tea party during this time, was now on her knees shaking her body.


    "You can put your face up, Isira Pearlant"


    "Yes..."


    Let me know what happened to Pearl.


    Nodding quietly, Isira tells Crayle not to hide every single thing that has happened. Isira, who doesn''t know about the Fairy King, just tells the truth.


    When Claire heard everything, she said, "Wanna hang out?," he presses his mouth.


    "No, because... Tiara Rose has Aquasteed. It can''t be me. Is Pearl some kind of misunderstanding...?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Claire, who thinks he hates him, couldn''t figure out why Pearl went into such behavior. The only people who no longer know each other''s thoughts are in person.


    "So Pearl mixed your blood in a vial of liquid...... I wonder what kind of liquid it is. I can''t believe I bothered to put Isira Pearlant''s blood in. I don''t think it''s a bad thing, but... oh, okay."


    "Maybe it''s the secret drug of the sea, the love drug."


    "Eh..."


    To Claire''s words, Isira is breathtaking.


    I mean, if Aquasteed drinks that liquid - fall in love with Isira? With that in mind, Isira felt her face have a fever.


    But soon, I shake my head telling myself I shouldn''t. You can''t let others like how Aquasteed feels. Isira blues her face in an instant and asks Claire what to do.


    "But how could Pearl have done that? Because Isira Pearlant likes Aquasteed? Did you finally do it? You don''t have to make Tiara Rose so bad in the first place."


    With his hands on his mouth and worried, Claire tells him to go to the castle.


    There must be two of them there, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. Isira snorted in a stiff manner while suppressing her anxiety.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Philine, I think this cookie is beautifully shaped!


    "Well, it''s adorable. Wherever you look at it, Your Highness Aquasteed."


    Without knowing the sea was starting to get rough, Tiara Rose was in the middle of making icing cookies in her own private kitchen.


    Here, Marine Forest had plenty of stores handling confectionery ingredients. That was not a lapis lazuli, thus accelerating Tiara Rose''s occasions.


    "You have a lot of ingredients. This must also be because Lady Tiara Rose has become the official queen."


    "Yeah, you might be seeing more merchants than tailoring dresses."


    Chuckling, Tiara Rose put the cookies in the oven.


    And then I can cook it, but the water makes a noise, like one day - Pearl turns up in front of Tiara Rose.


    Filine knelt quickly so as not to be rude, and Tiara Rose also knelt down to thank her.


    The vial Pearl holds in his hand is already empty of contents. I wonder what the hell they have, but Tiara Rose and Pearl are not in the kind of mood for an easy conversation.


    "What is confectionery making here? - Oh, my God, is that supposed to be Crail?


    "! This..."


    I was going to bake it a second time, a cookie that followed the crail into Pearl''s sight. Bite his lips tightly and Pearl points to Tiara Rose with a fan in his hand.


    "How many times have you insulted me?" It sucks to hang out with Claire. "


    "No, Master Pearl! I''m baking someone else''s cookies right now. Never just made Crail-like cookies."


    - Definitely, you''re misunderstanding me!


    Pearl doesn''t have the ear to listen, though he tells the truth that he needs an excuse right away. Humph his nose and make the vial in his hand look like Tiara Rose.


    ¡­¡­


    "This is the secret medicine of the sea."


    "Hiyaku...?


    - I''ve never heard of anything like that.


    There was no such information in the book, in history, or in mankind. But Pearl says it, so it''s got to be real for sure.


    - But the contents are empty?


    Pearl continues his words, as if he had read Tiara Rose''s mind.


    "I gave Aquasteed a drink. Now he won''t see you again."


    "... Huh! Dear Aqua, why"


    "Hmm. Maybe I wanted to see your painful face. This love pill is very effective."


    - Love pills!?


    Tiara Rose is in a hurry not to know that such a thing exists. And at the same time, the question is under which circumstances, and to whom, that effect can be expressed.


    I pray you are safe, Tiara Rose''s ear, and a cruel word arrives.


    "Now Aquasteed likes Isira."


    - Of the game sequel, heroine.


    Tiara Rose shook her body that she could never be a heroine.

 40 10. Sea Threat: First Half

    I drugged Aquasteed for falling in love.


    That said Pearl''s words upset Tiara Rose badly. You love yourself so much, you can''t see any other woman. If it was meant to be, I would be told that with my chest up.


    Although.


    Isira is the heroine of this game, the woman who was supposed to be tied to Aquasteed.


    That made Tiara Rose anxious and swept away her chest stretching confidence.


    - Please, don''t hate me...


    Forget that she''s a lady, she runs down the long corridor and goes for Aquasteed''s office. The passing knights look at Tiara Rose with a slight eye opening, but they can''t afford to care about that.


    Please, please - only the feeling of prayer overflows.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    A small voice spills out of Tiara Rose''s mouth.


    About ten meters away, the office door. I usually ask for permission to enter the room, but now I couldn''t afford that. Tiara Rose''s heart, stuffed with cut wings, is directed to Aquasteed in a straight line.


    "Aqua - Eh!


    "-Tiara?"


    I also forget to give it to you, and exercise my right to call it "Aqua¡±, which is only allowed to me.


    Indoors were Aquasteed and nearby Elliot.


    Ha ha, let me cut my breath and squeal "Aqua" again.


    Seeing how unusual it is, Aquasteed immediately graciously hugs Tiara Rose. I stroke my back slowly, like I said I''d be fine.


    "Huh...?


    "Hmm?"


    - ''Cause they didn''t take love pills?


    Aquasteed smiles the same as usual, pointing at Tiara Rose. I can''t really see it in the smile people make of liking someone else.


    Whatever this means, Tiara Rose''s brain is confused.


    Didn''t Aquasteed like Isira?


    "What''s up, Tiara?"


    "Oh, um... Does Aqua like me¡­?


    "Yeah? Of course, I like you, and I love you."


    While surprised by the sudden question, Aquasteed answers with pleasure.


    ¡­¡­


    - But maybe, it''s a pattern that I like, but Master Isira also (...) likes.


    Given its potential, unpleasant sweat conveys its back.


    Do you also like Isira? Yeah, just ask Aquasteed one word, but I don''t have a voice.


    "Tiara?"


    What''s the matter - and the gentle Aquasteed voice reaches my ear. Will the voice be directed at Isira as well? If I absolutely don''t like that, I squeeze my hand tight.


    "Dear Aqua,"


    "Yeah?"


    "Oh, what about Isira... do you like it,?


    "Miss Isira?


    Shaking his body, Tiara Rose asks Aquasteed.


    "What''s wrong, Tiara? Even though the only person I like is Tiara."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Chuckling and laughing, Aquasteed strokes Tiara Rose''s head.


    - Because Master Pearl is supposed to be giving you love pills.


    I was just wondering what the hell that meant, and the office door opens.


    "... sounds like trouble has arrived"


    "Dear Clayle, Dear Pearl"


    "Why the hell not! I should have had some strawberry tea, why...!


    Aquasteed takes one breath and gently seats Tiara Rose on the couch. He turned himself to the two fairy kings and sighed loudly.


    Pearl, who is grabbed by Claire all the time, is in tears, and she gives a voice to the glitch and incomprehensibility. Because I gave Aquasteed a love pill and he cares about Tiara Rose.


    And the next moment, the door opened again with momentum.


    It was Isira who came in breathless. Behind that, you met him on the way or Philine was with him.


    "Dear Pearl, please stop...... Huh!!"


    "Dear Tiara Rose, what''s wrong...... Huh!


    but soon the two are breathtaking.


    Because two fairy kings were there. Of course I came to see Pearl, the culprit, but I didn''t expect Claire to be with me.


    Isira tries to hug her trembling body tightly and quickly hacks.


    Aquasteed is being drugged with love pills that make her like herself. We have Pearl, so we decided it was probably after it was done.


    Hilariously, Isira''s gaze is directed towards Aquasteed.


    It was Tiara Rose who immediately noticed it. And I also noticed that the cheeks were a little tinted.


    - Master Isira, I know.


    Tiara Rose also understood that Pearl had come here to understand what he had done. Considering that you uttered the word stop, I can see that you came to stop me.


    But.


    - You''re expecting it, aren''t you?


    Tiara Rose thinks she was shallow, although Isira didn''t think she liked Aquasteed otherwise.


    - How did I know Isira didn''t like Aqua?


    If you think like the game says, there''s no way Isira doesn''t like Aqua.


    It hurts so bad, it runs.


    But soon, that idea will blow up,. Because Aquasteed''s words were serious.


    "We have already heard information about the sea from the fairies in the sky. The huge tsunami is coming in the next fifteen minutes"


    "Huh -!?"


    To Aquasteed''s words, Tiara Rose opened her eyes.


    "Let me use Miss Isira''s beach to stop the tsunami"


    "Yes, I did.


    Claire and her fairies, the fairy king of the sky, have the role of capturing information about this country and communicating it to Aquasteed as soon as possible.


    For this reason, there is nothing else in this country that has as much information as Aquasteed. In addition, it is also the two fairy kings, Claire and Keith, who know the facts. Just Elliot on the side and my dear Tiara Rose.


    Isira immediately nods at using her own sandy beach and asks if there is anything that needs to be prepared.


    "A tsunami... no. Can you stop eating...?


    "Nature is troublesome. It''s very difficult for us fairy kings to manage it, but once we get our hands off it, we can move it as we please."


    "Dear Clayle..."


    Pearl, the fairy king of the sea, has intense emotional ups and downs and is younger than other fairy kings. Therefore, we cannot see the current wave once we left Pearl''s hand.


    "Heh, heh! Well, you shouldn''t have done anything to make Claire jump!


    "Pearl?"


    "Wouldn''t Claire have happily chosen a gift for that person!!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Hear Pearl''s words and the indoors are enveloped in silence.


    "So I took a love pill on him that would make me like Isira because I wish the person could have the same eye!!"


    "To me? - Oh, that tea. Elliot drank it?


    "Eh."


    After putting a moment aside, everyone saw Elliot.


    Pearl blushes, even though he must have given Aquasteed a cup of tea.


    "It''s poisonous. Though a fairy king''s gift, it doesn''t speak so easily"


    Of course, though there''s a reason that the fairy king is a pearl.


    So Elliot was drinking just before Aquasteed drank it. Aquasteed was just pretending to talk and doing great.


    "No way..."


    Pearl squeaks, shaking his shoulder.


    Because of this, I was going to punish Tiara Rose for wandering the crail -.


    And then everyone indoors sees Isira.


    - When you take this love pill, you like Isira, don''t you?


    I mean, if Elliot is on love pills, that feeling is right for Isira. Everyone thought so and saw Elliot and Isila alternately.


    "Elliot......?


    Although Aquasteed quietly calls his name, Elliot leans down and says nothing.


    I was just worried about what everyone should do, and Keith''s voice sounds indoors.


    "Hey, you guys! I guess we''ll stop the tsunami!!"


    "Oh! Well, I was. Dear Aqua, if there is anything I can do, I will cooperate."


    When I rush to tell Aquasteed, I shrug my shoulders like I have no choice. She is blessed by the Fairy King of the Woods even though she really wants to keep Tiara Rose in a safe place. Its power will do much to stop this tsunami.


    I really care about Elliot, but I can''t even say that if the tsunami is imminent in fifteen minutes.


    ... Though there are decisions that, to the extent of falling in love, there will be no harm in it.


    "Claire, I''ll be there in a minute, so call the wind! Tiara is holding onto me."


    "Ha, ha!


    Leave Pearl, who is about to cry, and Claire uses the power of the sky to transfer. Taking them are two people: Aquasteed, who uses the power of the sky, and Tiara Rose, who uses the power of the forest.


    Keith makes a metastasis as well and gets there.


    What was left indoors was Pearl, the fairy king of the sea.


    And Elliot, who was drugged with love pills, is the subject of it, Isira. Philine''s, the four of them, who were too hasty to follow.


    ".........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


    "Ah, Dear Pearl!!"


    I had a metastasis right away, and the pearl disappeared.


    "Wow, let us also go to the sea. You must be worried about Mr. Tiara Rose, too, Philine.


    "I understand, Master Isira. We''ll arrange a carriage soon."


    "Please"


    In response to Isira''s words, Filine left the office behind to arrange a carriage.

 41 11. Sea Threat: Second Half

    Hmm - Isira realizes that it''s her and Elliot who are in the office.


    Especially since I''m not doing anything to myself, maybe Elliot didn''t have the effect of love pills. That''s what I thought. Arrow tip, fumble and Elliot moved.


    "Dear Isira,"


    "Huh...?"


    I accidentally put myself in shape, but I immediately change that attitude.


    Because Elliot had tears all over her eyes.


    - Duh, what''s wrong?


    Isira has never seen a man cry before. So I don''t know how to handle it. But I quickly understood that I''m sure this situation would be due to love pills.


    Because otherwise, Elliot, who is always calm, can''t be in this state.


    Without uttering too many words, Eggu began to spill tears on Elliot, a hurried Isira.


    "Oh, um... Because of Mr. Pearl''s medicine, I think that''s what''s happening. So, uh, the..."


    - Duh, what do I do?


    An unpleasant sweat tells Isira.


    - I''m in trouble.


    When I thought Aquasteed might like me, I walked away. But that changes my mind so much when I become a different person.


    - Me, you suck.


    With a bitter smile, Isilla sees Elliot crying.


    For now, you should let him sit on the couch and let him calm down. Encouraging him to sit down makes it easy for Elliot''s body to sink into the couch.


    Good.


    Isira breathes relief, but Elliot grabs her thin wrist as she tries to leave.


    "What, Elliot?


    "Excuse me.... but I don''t listen to my body and emotions"


    ¨D¨D


    Turns out Elliot''s hand was shaking and not wanting.


    "I love you, but I don''t like you -"


    "... excuse me"


    "It''s not like Isira apologizes. I need to see the poison, and I went ahead and drank it myself."


    I try to do something about the fever that swirls around my body, wondering when the hell this medicine is going to run out. But it didn''t work.


    Isira''s fluffy scent of the sea reaches Elliot and disturbs her heart.


    "It''s time for Filine to finish arranging the carriage. I have to go to the sea. Elliot will wait here..."


    "No, I''m going. I''m close to Aquasteed."


    Elliot stands up crying.


    That face was already a mess, but unfortunately it doesn''t stop.


    "Dear Isira, the carriage is ready - Elliot!?"


    "...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


    "Duh, what''s wrong? You look terrible."


    With a slight pull, Filine flashes her face.


    And then, he shifts his gaze to Elliot''s hand, which is grabbing Isira''s wrist.


    "? Something wrong?


    "... no, the"


    To Filine''s question, Isira clouds her words like she''s in trouble.


    And at the same time, Filine remembered what Pearl was saying when she was making sweets.


    "Love pills are working......?


    "... it seems so"


    Philine was so convinced when she saw Isira snorted.


    But no matter how much medicine you say it''s because of, that attitude is not good for Isira, the Duke''s maid. I''ll try to pull it off right away, but Elliot''s power is hard to get rid of.


    "I don''t expect Elliot to do this, but you can''t do this to Isira."


    "... I know. I''m a civilian, and I don''t like Isira."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    To Elliot''s words, Philine and Isira face to face.


    Eggs keep crying, Elliot. Speaking of which, I thought I heard that you were out of the civilian population, but all your identities don''t work that well.


    It would still be nice if a man were superior or equivalent, but not many aristocrats would let their daughters be daughter-in-law to the inferior man.


    - Is Elliot possibly putting his thoughts on the aristocratic woman?


    That''s probably why the emotion that was pushing him to death came forward.


    "And for now, let''s go because we don''t have time! Elliot was wearing this cloth."


    You can''t walk around showing your face in tears.


    With a breath of jealousy, the Philinees moved to the carriage.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Wow, the color of the ocean is so bad."


    "It''s black..."


    The sea, which was usually clear, had turned into a deeply cloudy colour. Keith''s voice sighed somewhere, shrugging and "Is it the second time".


    "In the meantime, we have to stop the tsunami. I hope the tsunami is scattered in my wind and the aftermath is prevented by Keith''s tree."


    Nodding to Claire''s words, the Tiara Roses landed on the fluttering sandy beach.


    My skin feels that this place, which is usually calm, is tingling. The sound of my heart makes me feel terribly bad.


    When I hug my body all the way out of anxiety, "It''s okay," Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose.


    "Never leave my side. I''ll protect Tiara."


    "Thank you, Master Aqua"


    I snort and stick to Aquasteed.


    "You don''t have to worry too much about the rough sandy beaches because I think Miss Isira will restore them with the help of the sea fairies"


    "Okay."


    As if to exaggerate the words of Aquasteed who said so, there was a buoyancy and a great wind. I can see how strong the smell of the tide is and that it comes from the sea.


    The black sea twirls big and turns big waves toward the Tiara Roses.


    - This is where the battle starts.


    No other fairy king will solve it directly, no matter how much pearl caused the ocean disaster. That''s like an ancient decision, supposedly something like that.


    Even with regard to this one, though Pearl''s Rampage - it is classified as the troubles of a human and fairy king who could not get along well. Therefore, fairy kings do not often appear before humans.


    There are those who say that if we should stay out of this as much as possible, we should actively help.


    Looking straight at the ocean, Aquasteed sees a falling wave. We use the power of the wind to push back to the tsunami that is coming before us.


    But the power of Aquasteed alone doesn''t make that wave come true.


    "Crail!"


    "Bless the Fairy King in the Sky, Aquasteed Marine Forest. I''m counting on your strength to be king of this country."


    "Oh, uh, Keith!


    "Bless the Fairy King of the Woods to Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest. With me, Tiara, just look ahead."


    Keith laughs more at Tiara Rose''s voice.


    First, Aquasteed uses the power of the wind to kick back the waves that strike. Next, Tiara Rose uses the power of the forest to prevent its massive bumps and waves that couldn''t be pushed back.


    - But I''ve never used the power of the forest.


    Even magic isn''t that much. Tiara Rose, who doesn''t like magic, gets anxious.


    Pom, and...


    Warm plush touches the back of Tiara Rose.


    "It''s okay, Tiara. Because I''m next door."


    "You can''t use my powers, can you?


    "Dear Aqua, Keith...... Yes, good luck!


    Aquasteed and Keith''s hands support Tiara Rose''s back.


    That''s terribly reassuring and makes me think I''m absolutely fine when I say I''m in such a critical situation.


    - Because I can''t imagine these two losing.


    When I laugh unexpectedly, Keith laughs at me.


    "Look, let''s go, Tiara. I need you to help me. I need you to wake up the trees and build a breakwater."


    "Wow, okay!


    I feel the power of the forest pouring into my confidence and the pulse of the earth in this country. Protected by the Fairy King of the Forest, this country is rich in nature, and man who has the blessing of the Fairy King can use some of it.


    "Forest trees, lend me the strength to protect this country!


    Keith''s green hair dances as she responds to Tiara Rose''s powerful voice. At the same time, a small bud appeared on his face from a sandy beach where additional sand was laid on one side.


    - Wow. This is the power of the Fairy King.


    The air trembles in an instant so much that you accidentally breathe. The gargling buds quickly grew into large trees that could take on the role of jetties.


    "Mm, this is what it is. Now the trees will suck away the overflowing water. And then..."


    Depends on Aquasteed''s hard work. Yes, Keith laughs.


    "I''m with you, I''ll protect the ocean. Look, Aquasteed! More magic."


    "I know. Wind, push back the black sea!


    The tsunami that came this way was pushed back when a loud breeze broke out.


    - Wow.


    That''s the main target of the sequel game. I wonder if I could say that its overwhelming power is equivalent to that of the Fairy King, Tiara Rose thinks.


    The waves crumble wide and wide, and the bumps pour down on one side of the perimeter like rain. Although only a few waves that couldn''t be pushed back come this way - it''s Tiara Rose and Keith who prevent it.


    "Tiara, come here"


    "! Thank you"


    Gently, Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose from behind. And fly the wind force forward, protecting Tiara Rose from being crushed by the waves.


    When it''s like the ocean is cracked, I get the illusion.


    "O trees, guard against the waters of the sea"


    "We''ll hang in there too!"


    "Ooh!


    In response to Tiara Rose''s voice, the fairies of the woods raised their voices from between the trees.


    I can quickly see that everyone is trying to help, for Tiara Rose. The fairies in the woods are so warm.


    Absolutely not, to the city, to the woods, to turn this spilled tsunami around.


    "My magic, good luck -!"


    When Tiara Rose shouted out loud, the water shimmered all the time. Bashan and the heavily raised shavings were all absorbed by the grown trees.


    And in the sky, a great muscle of rainbows bloomed.


    "Stopped, huh?


    "Right."


    Until now the black sea has vanished with the power of the wind, and no damage has been done to the city by the jetties of the trees.


    - Good.


    Tiara Rose strokes her chest down relieved and sees the trees that protected the city.


    Though wet in water, its roots looked pristine because it was firmly strewn on the sandy beach. The trees, which contain the magic of Tiara Rose, pom tiny buds.


    "Huh?"


    "Flowers bloom, don''t they? There must be a new kind of flower in Tiara''s magic."


    "Liar, that''s what...?


    I didn''t expect flowers to bloom with my magic.


    Pink buds slowly open the flowers - showing the colors. It was an adorable flower with a small bag under a large wheel.

 42 12. Tiara Rose Flowers

    Take a breather as you look at the glittering rainbow.


    I wondered what would happen when Pearl had a tsunami, Tiara Rose, but I was able to feel a little confident in myself because I was able to stop it safely.


    "Phew..."


    "Are you okay? Usually you''re tired because you don''t use magic much"


    To support, Aquasteed turns his arm around Tiara Rose''s hips. "Well done," she smiles, gently stroking her honey pink hair.


    I nodded small and leaned over to Aquasteed to sweeten Tiara Rose as well. Take a blister and realize that each other''s clothes are soaking wet.


    I''m blurry that I need to change - but, uh, I realize.


    "Dear Aqua,"


    "Hmm?"


    A gentle grin does not break even with a slight surprise to Tiara Rose, who sees Aquasteed in momentum.


    "Ugh..."


    "Tiara?"


    "No, it''s nothing..."


    - Dear Aqua, a good man who drips water too!


    Shizuku, which falls from dark blue hair, looks colorful.


    Reaching gently, Aquasteed loosens her cheeks happily. Touching her to pay for the Shizuku on her forehead, her fingers trembled slightly at its cold.


    "Tiara''s hands, they''re warm."


    "! No, the... sorry. He touched me with his wet hands."


    "As much as you want me to touch you more?


    "Geez."


    Aquasteed draws my hand and hugs me for a long time.


    It''s supposed to be wet and cold, but I feel really hot. While he thinks it''s because his heart makes noises so loud from time to time, Tiara Rose lets herself down to that relief.


    There''s a sweet two-person world going on there - but there''s no way the Green Fairy King is honestly silent.


    "Hey, you guys forgot we''re here."


    "Well, well, Aquasteed did his best, and that''s not good. I''ll dry your clothes because you shouldn''t catch a cold."


    Claire spoke so that she could mock Keith, and kept the wind dry of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed''s clothes.


    With a pleasant warm breeze, Tiara Rose was impressed that she was just the fairy king. Aquasteed can also flash the wind, but the temperature cannot be adjusted perfectly to this point.


    "Helpful"


    "Thank you, Master Crail"


    I look at my fluffy and warm dress and think it''s like I''ve dried it under the sun.


    "Tiara, your flowers - I see."


    "Huh?"


    Keith laughs as he sees flowers blooming on the rough sandy beach.


    Flowers blooming with the magic of Tiara Rose are pink with beautiful large wheels. But I can''t see anything strange about it. Tiara Rose walks to the flowers with Aquasteed as she clenches her neck.


    The first thing I noticed about the discomfort of the flowers was Aquasteed.


    Actually, there was a little bag of fudge under the big wheel, and something seemed to be in there.


    ¡­¡­ What is it, it "


    "It looks like there''s something in there, but I don''t know what. It''s powdery, though. Tiara''s flower, so Tiara can open it."


    "Yes......"


    Tiara Rose picks flowers, prompted by Aquasteed.


    Fluffy and sweet scent tickles my nose and loosens my cheeks.


    - But what is this bag?


    It''s about the size of a wax, and when I shake it, it sounds like salad and something in it. When I gently broke the bag, it was the white powder that showed up.


    - Could this be...


    Next to Tiara Rose, who stares at the white powder, Aquasteed clenches her neck. Apparently, I had no idea what that was.


    Apparently he knew the answer, Keith looked sideways with a slight glimpse of the situation.


    "Hey, Keith. What is that?


    "It''s Tiara''s favorite thing."


    "Huh? Tiara, do you like powder?


    Claire asks Keith and is surprised at the answer she returns. Because I never thought Tiara Rose liked dubious powder.


    But Tiara Rose was convinced of what this was in Keith''s words.


    Put it on your fingertips for a bit and make it look like a pepper.


    "Tiara!?"


    "Mmm, it''s okay. Here."


    Aquasteed speaks out in surprise at his sudden behavior, but Tiara Rose just smiles. I offered my fingers white powder - the finest sugar - without any harm at all.


    "That''s Tiara or something..."


    With his breath, Tiara Rose puts a question mark on her head.


    Without explaining why, Aquasteed took Tiara Rose''s hand and put her fingertips in his mouth. Seeing the red tongue to taste and lick, Tiara Rose breathed.


    - Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!


    Unconsciously, I gave Aquasteed my own finger. I had no idea you would include that in your mouth.


    "Ah, Akua-sama..."


    The lukewarm feeling shivers as it comes from your fingertips.


    "Mmm, Tiara''s fingers are sweet."


    "Uh-huh."


    In an instant my face turns bright red and I have heat to my ears. But I don''t know what to do, and they make me Aquasteed, but it stays. - But it''s Keith, the mighty one, who interrupts there.


    "Come on, you jealous bastard."


    "Tiara is my wife"


    Rita Keith pulls her back, but Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose back without losing.


    "Damn, get along, both of you."


    Take the highest quality sugar while clayling at it. I see. I snorted, licking it peppery and laughing, "That''s sweet."


    With this sugar, the quality of the treats made by Tiara Rose would improve. That''s why Keith said this was Tiara Rose''s favorite.


    Keith, who doesn''t listen to Clayle, flies a bee spark with Aquasteed, while throwing the word "are you going" at Clayle, who starts walking towards the ocean.


    "Yes."


    Claire responds concisely and everyone speaks.


    - Go to Master Pearl.


    I wonder how it got so messed up, while Tiara Rose also thinks Pearl just overdid it.


    - Could it be that Master Crail has captured his affection... or something?


    An unpleasant sweat flows at that look of the sea with a serious face. Because it wasn''t always Claire''s face laughing even though she liked Pearl.


    "Keith, Dear Pearl..."


    - What happens?


    I just couldn''t put it into words.


    Keith, who is always challenged, replies with a serious voice.


    "... nothing can be done about it. We''re fairy kings, so nothing counts as human beings."


    "Then Lady Crail..."


    Why, are you trying to get under the pearl? An unpleasant sweat tells her back.


    Seeing Tiara Rose''s anxiously distorted face, Keith gently tells her not to care and sends out a crail towards the sea.


    "I guess the angriest thing about this one is Crail"


    "Nothing, I don''t like humans as much as Claire. In fact, the woods don''t really bless humans, do they?


    Hear Keith''s words and do snort.


    Right now, Tiara Rose is the only one blessed by the woods. That''s very special in this country, and it also serves to help Tiara Rose''s status as his daughter-in-law from another country.


    "Originally, Claire likes humans. You''d have been cooperative with Aquasteed, wouldn''t you?


    "Right. It''s no exaggeration to say that Claire knows everything about this country."


    The information we grab from the sky spans thousands.


    But the beautiful flowers that Claire was most concerned about - in the sea.


    Of course, it''s not easy to get information about the Fairy King, but there''s still a difference between Keith on the ground and Pearl deep in the ocean.


    "Dear Claire, I wonder if you''re all right..."


    "I don''t know. Well, it''s about Claire, so I think we''ll do well..."


    "He''s a pervert of a women''s clothing hobby, but he''s scared when he hangs up -"


    Buffy laughs, imagining Keith laughing when Claire and Pearl meet face to face.


    "Say Keith! It won''t be a laugh..."


    "It''s a laugh, like this. Well, you can leave Pearl to Claire."


    While I get anxious for Keith, who lightly says it''s okay, the Tiara Roses can''t even go under the pearl. We need to clear out the rough sandy beaches and tell the city that there is no problem with the rain in the shattered sea water.


    When we start talking about going back to the castle to send knights, Isira''s carriage stops.


    It was Isira who came out of it. Then it''s Philine and Elliot.


    - Are you all right?


    The three people who came down are neat and Tiara Rose tightens her mind that something else may have gone wrong.


    ¡­¡­


    "... Elliot?


    "Hiya face, dude."


    Unexpectedly breathtaking tiara rose, surprised aqua steed. I gave my thoughts straight to Keith.


    At the end of his gaze is Elliot, who keeps crying.


    "Well, you did take love pills... Elliot is highly resistant to poisons, so I just thought it was fine."


    Apparently, it worked somewhat.


    But there''s no antidote here, and I don''t know if there''s an antidote itself because it''s a fairy king''s medicine. Well, Aquasteed just figured out what to do, and Isira speaks up.


    "Uh, me..."


    "No, it''s not something Miss Isira cares about. I''m sorry, I''m here. Elliot did something to me..."


    "No, nothing"


    As Isira says, Aquasteed sees Elliot.


    "Wah, I will ask Master Pearl for an antidote!!"


    Now only Isira, blessed by the sea fairy, can go to the palace where Pearl lives. Sometimes I feel like I can''t wait to talk about love pills - but I didn''t want to make Elliot feel twisted with pills any more.


    "Dear Isira!? Now that Master Crail is gone -"


    Tiara Rose tries to stop in a hurry, but it didn''t seem to reach Isira''s ear, and I can hear her jump into the ocean properly.


    And as it followed, Elliot jumped into the ocean after Isira.


    "Ahhh!?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Aquasteed sighs with a shuddered face and Keith laughs.


    Tiara Rose wondered why she was so calm, but for now she prayed that everyone would return safely from under the pearl.

 43 13. Pearls Heart

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Pearl"


    Claire''s voice echoes Pearl''s Palace, as if the temperature were colder than the bottom of the ocean.


    Of course Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea, the Lord of the Palace, shook his body frightened by his voice. A tough voice I''ve never heard before lowers the temperature of the ocean.


    Always, a gentle and gentle clail who did nothing to anger me. The girlfriend - no, he''s angry.


    "Clay, Le"


    As squeezed out, Pearl calls his name.


    The name is called and the grin and clail smile, but those eyes are not laughing. When I looked at the pearl silently and clayed up my beautiful hair slightly - come on, the hair changed to a clear straight water color. The dress, which belonged to a woman, would belong to a neat man, and the original crail would make her look.


    As if it were the sky itself, everyone who saw it would think.


    "He looked like a woman because Pearl said he didn''t like men... but that''s enough, right?


    "... eh"


    Pearl takes a step back, not knowing what''s enough.


    I felt scared of Claire.


    "Uh, the wrinkles..."


    "Pearl. We, the Fairy King, have nothing to blame for any other natural disaster. Sometimes it may be judged necessary"


    Claire slowly takes her feet under the pearl as she continues her words.


    "But..."


    Claire crouches so as to gaze at the pearl sitting down.


    "- It''s not a good idea to involve humans in the situation between me and Pearl, is it?


    "... Huh!


    Pearl felt her eyeballs get hot.


    I wonder why I have to fit all this into my eyes. Of course, though Pearl shouldn''t behave cheaply himself.


    - Why do you have to fit like this?


    It''s about this time Pearl looks back at the angry Crail blurry.


    All the gear went crazy because of Tiara Rose''s coming to this country. Because it''s strange that a villain''s warrant exists for the sequel game.


    But in this world where everyone lives - there is no one who cares about it.


    The first to take action were the sea fairies.


    It began with me wanting Isira, whom we love, to be happy. I thought if Isira and Aquasteed were together, Isira would be happy.


    But there''s no way we can separate the compassionate Tiara Rose from Aquasteed.


    Pearl didn''t really care about this.


    Then the next contact was with Claire.


    Pearl thought somewhere that he would see her sooner or later because he was blessing Aquasteed. - I didn''t think it was going to be an intimate relationship.


    ¡­¡­


    "Pearl?"


    - I thought the Fairy King was a lonely thing, but he was the lonely one.


    Seeing Claire and Keith laughing with pleasure, I felt gradually depressed. Though I thought maybe I could get along with humans myself - that''s like a dream story.


    "I don''t need to be alone."


    With eyes with no emotions, Pearl tells Claire that.


    Crail bites his teeth even though he doesn''t want that answer. The truth is, I''m supposed to miss you more than anyone, but Pearl strengthens and locks himself in his shell.


    But I can''t help it either. That''s what I thought, where Claire took one breath - the van and the door to the room where the two of them were opened.


    "Dear Pearl!


    "Ugh......"


    "To Isira Pearlant, not Elliot"


    Surprisingly, it was Claire who first returned the reaction.


    I hope Isira is in the closest position to the ocean - notably Elliot, whose face is supposed to be terrible.


    And soon, Crayle and the others remembered that he was the one who took the love pill when it came to it.


    "Duh, please, can you give me a pill that will eliminate the effects of love pills?


    ¡­¡­


    To Isira''s words, Pearl sees them both silently.


    "Why doesn''t Elliot make Isira his own when he has the power?


    "Pearl!"


    "Huh! K, Master Crail?


    Isira was surprised for a moment because she looked different from her usual beauty - immediately, returning her gaze to Pearl. And people''s minds diligently tell them that it''s not something they can manipulate with drugs.


    Before Isira like that, Elliot speaks out, "No."


    "With me, you''re too different.... because my favorite people are aristocrats"


    "Elliot......"


    To an unbroken confession, Isira and Claire are breathtaking. I don''t know who Elliot thinks, but the walls of identity are definitely high.


    When Claire smiles like she''s in trouble, the pearl sitting up and poking a fan at Elliot.


    "Why do you care about such a difference in status? If you''re a man, you can help yourself protect as many women as you like!!"


    "... Huh!


    Raising the loudest voice ever, Pearl glances at Elliot.


    "A man cares too much about his identity. He also left to say that he was a different person. Never be united in man and fairy king, yes - ¡­"


    "Pearl"


    Twitch, tears overflow in Pearl''s eyes.


    Pearl''s words won''t stop, though Claire won''t offer a handkerchief to calm him down.


    "Yet he said he would get the name of the woe because he didn''t want to forget the woe. I don''t need anything, like feeling halfway..."


    Tears as big as pearls spilled out of Pearl''s eyes.


    Isira, who sees it, hacks. Pearl said he was given his name.


    - My name is Isira Pearlant.


    In the name of Pearl, loved and clan by the sea fairies.


    - Does that mean your old uncle long ago refused to accompany you with Mr. Pearl?


    I''ve never heard such a story before, and several generations here have been at peace. It must have been quite a while ago, Isira thought.


    - If that''s true... Oh, my God, is it cruel?


    I can''t believe the man I liked married and defended that name for generations. When I thought Pearl was watching that nearby, Isira thought she couldn''t help but hate herself.


    Pearl, however, allows the fairies of the sea to bless, and the sea has always been calm.


    - Is that because of Lady Claire?


    When Isira turns her gaze to Crail, she sees a very spicy look. That alone shows that Claire knew what happened to Pearl.


    "............... that, I''m sorry. It''s stronger."


    "Elliot, there''s tears..."


    Hearing Pearl''s words, Elliot stopped the tears. Those eyes have a strong will and you can no longer see the color of being made to fall in love with Isira by medicine.


    "It just - it seems to have expired."


    "Yes."


    "Then go - you did, but go under whom you should think"


    "Huh!?"


    I need to tell you no more because you''re not the same person - when I looked into Elliot''s eyes, who told me so, Pearl smiled satisfactorily and gently transferred only Elliot.


    And after seeing Claire and Isira several times, he took a slow, deep breath and opened his mouth.


    "... Sorry for the inconvenience. I''ve done a terrible job with Isira, and I''ve tasted a lot of fear for humans."


    "No, no... Dear Pearl. I am the one who, knowing nothing, is blessed by the sea - I''m sorry."


    "It''s okay. Was too indifferent to humans."


    Pearl smiles with a smile that''s going to disappear.


    Then turn your gaze to Claire.


    "Crail...... Thank you for keeping an eye on these strawberries. Forget that man, I thought it was just Claire - he''s no king."


    "Nothing wrong with Pearl about that. You just used it to be good for a terrible man, so forget it."


    "Huh -?"


    Pong, Claire''s big hand strokes Pearl''s hair.


    Take a big breath, for Christ''s sake, and now think with your hands on your hips about what to do. Claire and I think it''s too much this time, even though it''s because of how many reasons.


    If you hadn''t bothered anyone, you might have had a lovely yakimo.


    "I didn''t know Pearl liked me enough to have a tsunami. I thought you hated me."


    "! Wah, the wrinkles...... ugh!!"


    Pearl shakes his head in a hurry at Claire''s words, Sharan and the hair decorations make noises.


    "But Pearl. You have to be properly aware of what you''ve done this time. In the name of Claire the Fairy King in the sky, I take Pearl..."


    "Please wait!!"


    Claire spins words to declare punishment on Pearl. but Isira forcibly raises her voice and stops it before she says what it is.


    "... Isira Pearlant, this isn''t about humans talking, is it?


    "I know, I''m here. ¡­ but"


    Claire, blocked from her own words, answers Isira in a low voice. Isira breathes heavily and states to Claire, trembling at that voice without discouragement, which is not the kind of voice she was speaking to Pearl.


    "Will you let me keep the punishment for Master Pearl..."


    "! What are you talking about, Isira? That kind of pity is useless!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Unlike Pearl, who immediately disputed, Claire silently urges Isira to go ahead.


    "I have received the grace of Lord Pearl, even though I did not know him. Will you forgive me for my punishment for serving me..."


    "Straw, do you want me to serve a human being?"


    The tingly air runs indoors.


    Without making any assumptions about it, Isira snorted. Pearl clails - sin must be lighter to serve himself than to be punished by the Fairy King.


    In addition, it is also significant that the power of the Fairy King of the Sea can be used on the human side, albeit temporarily.


    Isira''s choice, which also included such an intention. But I was also certain that this was the best decision for Pearl.

 44 14. Blessings of the Fairy King

    Isira makes Pearl serve herself. I heard that word quietly about whether I could get it as a punishment for this time - and Claire said the word of denial clearly though.


    "Isira Pearlant. That''s just unacceptable, isn''t it?


    "Huh! I... have gone too far. Sorry, sir."


    Cold winds swoop indoors for a while.


    Immediately realizing that its source was Crail, Isira heads down in a panic. But in the eyes of a crail colder than ice, I''m just frightened.


    The warm crail appearance at the tea party was nowhere.


    "I can''t believe I left Pearl''s treatment to humans. I''m not supposed to forgive you for that, am I? Besides, to the offspring of Pearlant, I don''t know."


    "Ku, give me...?


    You''re supposed to be smiling, but that voice is cold.


    I fix it as nothing on the surface, but Claire is more than a pearl - I don''t really think of pearl rant humans.


    I do think that Crail likes humans, but he needs a line: fairy kings and humans. Therefore, I did not often think of Isira, who had made the decision that it was okay to be excessively involved.


    Claire goes on to say, "And..."


    "I''m also discussing with Keith that I''m the one who decides how to treat Pearl."


    Dust and smile, Claire looks at the pearl.


    I feel something in that grin and I try to escape, but I get captured easily. While Pearl thinks this only has a bad feeling, it''s not a good idea to defy the two fairy kings if they decide to.


    This time, even more because Pearl himself admits he''s bad.


    "So Isira Pearlant can go home now. Elliot also returned it by Pearl... and speaking of which, Pearl"


    "Hey, what?


    "Where did you transfer Elliot?


    "I''m going to confess, at that Tiara Rose place, of course."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Hearing Pearl''s words, an indescribable silence flowed indoors.


    "To Tiara Rose''s? Why?"


    ¡­¡­


    "You really like Tiara Rose, don''t you?


    Isira pretends to calm down that she shouldn''t say anything more to Crayle with her neck hanging. We both definitely don''t think Elliot''s thinker is Tiara Rose.


    Claire asks why Pearl made such a mistake.


    "Guys, I thought you liked that woman..."


    "That would be Pearl''s bias. I don''t think Elliot likes Tiara Rose, do you? Of course, you think he''s the one to serve."


    That''s Isira''s exact opinion, too, so she snorted silently.


    There''s a difference in identity, so it''s probably some nobleman''s warrant. Isira thinks so - but Crail''s voice interrupts that thought.


    "Well, that''s fine. It''s not a question of who humans accompany each other."


    When Claire called the wind with her fingers as a pattin, it surrounded Isira as if it were willing - making her metastasize all at once.


    A small scream leaks out of Isira''s mouth, but Claire doesn''t care about that.


    "... and what''s the punishment for the woes?


    "You honestly accept that, Pearl"


    "If you''re going to be punished, your Lord is the best. Seal the magic of wrinkles, or hundreds of years of caution?


    Pearl and the fairy king of the sea.


    I can predict what punishment I will be punished for.


    At the same time, there has been a tsunami, but there has been no damage, so it will not be that great a punishment.


    "Would I be cautious anyway? One is accustomed to it, so say whatever you like for a hundred or a thousand years."


    "Well, that would be reasonable. It''s not enough to seal the magic, and I don''t have a hobby for girls."


    But Claire goes on to say "but".


    "What...? So you''re saying it''s not prudent?


    Pearl blushes, apparently not the punishment he expected. But if Clayle decides, he just obeys honestly.


    Pearl decided not to do anything that would twitch if he didn''t want to.


    Claire, with a smile and a good smile, arcs and tells her mouth.


    "Give Aquasteed and Tiara Rose the blessing of Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea. That''s the punishment I decided to give Pearl"


    "Behold! What are you kidding me about!! The woes decided not to give blessings to humans!!"


    The past that blessed Pearlant''s man was a tragic farewell. Since then, Pearl had sworn to his heart that he would not give a blessing to man himself.


    I know about that, too, Claire.


    Now here in the kingdom of Marine Forest is a good country full of very serene nature.


    Prince Wang is blessed by the Fairy King Claire in the sky, and his queen, Tiara Rose, has Keith the Fairy King in the woods. Although it is exquisitely even-handed, it is also true that there is a fear of the possibility of a third force called the sea.


    There are no people in this country who want to fight Aquasteed, but I don''t think so in the future. Then the Fairy King of the Sea can give blessings to both first.


    "By the way, I ask you to bless me with all your strength"


    "Behold! If you do that, the magic of the wrinkles will be almost empty!


    "Yeah. ''Cause that would be punishment, wouldn''t it?


    If Pearl blessed him with all his might, it would take him about a hundred years to restore his magic.


    In the meantime, I can hardly use my powers. Well, I wish I could pull it into my own palace and do it, but it''s not pleasant.


    If it can be sealed, you can also unseal it if you do everything in your power. But there''s nothing I can do about all the magic that''s gone awry.


    A plush pearl speaks up, but Claire doesn''t try to pull a step.


    Huh, sighed loudly, and Pearl nodded, "I have no choice." If you bless him, all you have to do is pull him into your own palace. As ridiculous as it is to serve Isira, you don''t have to be under the person who gave you the blessing all the time.


    "It''ll be a punishment, and this country will develop further, and I think it''s all good,"


    "Claire, your lord loves this country too much..."


    After seeing Claire with an open face, Pearl spins the words of blessing.


    "Supreme blessings to the two people in charge of the future of Marine Forest, Sasami Soba Sea. Aquasteed Marine Forest has a blade of water that pierces everything. Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest has a wall of water that prevents everything..."


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Move the place from the sandy beach of Isira, all over the city.


    Aquasteed rode his horse, trying to calm down the confused residents in the earlier tsunami, let alone the damage.


    Fortunately, there was no damage, so the whole city isn''t so confused.


    Tiara Rose and Filine went back to the castle first and are now waiting. Keith said he would look into the Tiara Rose flowers that blossomed large circles, so he stayed alone on the sandy beach.


    ".................. Huh!?"


    Pearl blessings were poured on Aquasteed, who was trying to calm the turmoil in the city. I feel dizzy about the magic that''s pouring into my body, and I''m about to flutter down.


    Step all the way down there and look in the direction where the ocean is.


    "Your Highness, what have you done?


    "- No, no problem. Besides, I could use a little help. The residents are getting calm, so let them know there''s no problem."


    "Ha!"


    Instructing the knight, Aquasteed decided to hurry back to the castle.


    Immediately, I understood that the magic that had poured into me - was the blessing of the Fairy King of the Sea. Perhaps Tiara Rose is in the same condition. I had to be anxious, so I wanted to stay right next to him.


    "I heard the punishment for the Fairy King of the Sea is a blessing - give me something I should give you a word or so in advance..."


    I offend Claire for not being here, but there''s nothing I can do about it that''s done.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    It would be nice to run the horse and get to the castle''s own room - for some reason, Elliot and Isila as well as Tiara Rose and Filine were there.


    I''ll put around wondering if they let me do the metastasis right away, but why are you both here? Such a question arose in Aquasteed, but he was convinced to make sure Elliot''s face was back to normal.


    - Did the medicine expire and you come back here?


    If so concluded, Aquasteed decided that Elliot would have no problem.


    "I''m home, Tiara. Is your body okay?


    "Welcome back, Master Aqua. Yes, I''m surprised - there''s nothing particularly wrong with it."


    A fluffy and sweet scent tickles my nose when I hug my dear wife all the time.


    Tiara Rose was similarly blessed with the sea. He said the ocean hated him so much, but now he''s protected by the ocean.


    Apparently, Tiara Rose was a blessing dedicated to defense, and I could feel the magic of the thin ocean enveloping her. This would alleviate both physical shocks, physical fitness, etc.


    And when it comes to Aquasteed, he is blessed with attack specialization, the opposite of Tiara Rose. In order to protect this country, the Fairy King recognized his role as paving the way for a new one.


    Though I don''t do anything as noisy as war.


    "If Tiara is safe, that''s fine. The city wasn''t that messy either, so if you clean up the rough sandy beach, there''s no problem."


    "Yes."


    Watch Tiara Rose snort adorably, relieved.


    It''s strange because I thought I''d run out of magic to prevent the tsunami, but I feel like I could work a little harder just seeing that smile.


    And then, I remember the flowers that blossomed with the magic of Tiara Rose.


    The pink wheel will be the national flower of this country with its name as Tiara Rose. That makes me kind of feel like the country took Tiara Rose.


    "Dear Aqua?


    "... no, it''s nothing. I''m glad Miss Isira and Elliot are back safe and sound."


    Hold Tiara Rose again, then Aquasteed sees them both. "No problem," said Elliott approximating, and Isira looked softened somewhere.


    That gaze, at times, is directed at Elliot.


    - Is something wrong?


    But I don''t think Elliot''s gonna get his hands on Isira. Aquasteed tilts his neck and sees how the two of them are doing - but Elliot is not at all, as usual.


    As for Isira, who returned late, I was just wondering if Elliot had made a confession - there''s no such atmosphere.


    I don''t think so, but like Pearl said, if Elliot''s thinkers were Tiara Rose... I''d be afraid.


    There is a sound of chatter, and Filine does the tea support.


    "Thank you, Philine"


    "No. Would you like me to bring you some other treats?


    "Right. Could you bring me a macaroon..."


    Prepare Aquasteed tea and prepare the macarons instructed by Tiara Rose. I still have things to do, but if I don''t get a break first, I''m tired.


    Something sweet in that case! And, Tiara Rose can flaunt her face.


    Where everyone sat on the couch, Aquasteed briefly explains this one.


    "The punishment about the fairy king of the sea that caused the tsunami was decided by Claire, the fairy king of the sky. It''s about blessing me and Tiara with the fairy king of the sea."


    "... Huh!


    Hearing Aquasteed''s words, Isira is breathtaking.


    I wonder what a fool the suggestion I made earlier... makes me look down.


    "Besides that, there is no fairy king involved. Sandy beaches and other cleaning will be carried out on the human side and will continue to be handled as always. Flowers blooming with the magic of Tiara will be transferred to the castle to grow."


    "Okay."


    Tiara Rose nods honestly, but Isira shudders her expression and shudders small. Slowly he opened his mouth - to the sea and asked what he would do with the management regarding the sandy beach.


    Currently, Isira manages the beach. But if you have two blessed fairy kings of the sea - entrusting them to you would definitely be a better environment.


    Isira is only blessed by the sea fairies.


    "No, I''ll ask Miss Isira to continue managing the ocean."


    "But I..."


    "It''s Miss Isira who knows the sea best. Besides, Tiara has a forest, so she can''t get around to it. There will be more diplomacy in the future."


    As an aquasteed, there are times when you don''t want Tiara Rose wielded by the fairy kings any more.


    - The truth is, even though I want to keep it locked in the castle all the time.


    If I were this princess, the Fairy King in the Woods would like me, so - as for my husband''s self, I want him beside me as much as I can.


    "If that''s what Dear Aquasteed said, I''m happy to accept it. But I promise I''ll give you that seat as soon as I can."


    "Oh. Nice to meet you, Miss Isira"


    - Now for now, I guess one paragraph.


    Have a cup of tea and see a calm indoor. There seems to be no other problem, so Aquasteed had a plan to take a rest today and take care of the beach and move the trees after tomorrow.

 45 15. Golden Sea and Sky

    "Whew..."


    Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Tiara Rose''s consciousness awakens from the meltdown. I think it''s morning, but my tired body doesn''t move as much as I think. - And I thought... I realize that I can''t move because of my disappointingly turned arm, and I laugh bitterly.


    Sleeping easily is the aquasteed holding you from behind.


    - Usually, it''s unusual to be awake before me.


    Rotate your body twirling in the bed and turn back to Aquasteed. The eyes that always look at Tiara Rose are tightly closed.


    - Eyelashes, long.


    You see a neat face, and it still happens every now and then. Love it. Yes, I shrugged in my heart, and Tiara Rose snuck over to Aquasteed and tried to sleep twice - - - - In Keith''s voice, she jumps up.


    "I brought flowers."


    "Ki, Ki, Keith!! Why are you in the bedroom - Yikes"


    ¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose rushes to ask, but is turned back into the bed by an awakened aquasteed. Keep the sheets on your head and you''ll see nothing


    I move around and try to get out, but Aquasteed is holding me back and I can''t move well.


    Without hiding his grumpy colors, Aquasteed stared at Keith.


    "What, wasn''t the king prince of this country an absolute fairy king?


    "I won''t give in with regard to Tiara"


    "Hmm. So is that."


    Chuckling and laughing, Keith throws the bag he had in his hand at Aquasteed. To the extent that it would fit in one hand, it was packed with sugar collected by Keith at best from the Tiara Rose flowers.


    The sugar you are exposing is definitely in this country - no, it would be finer than any sugar present in this world.


    "You can do enough to wait in that room until you''re done dressing, right? I''m the only one who can look at Tiara."


    "Damn, you''re my poor Prince Wang. Well, why don''t you have some tea and wait?"


    - That''s what I''m talking about on my own!!


    Tiara Rose, who had only heard her voice in the sheets, was relieved that nothing had happened for now - her face became hot at Aquasteed''s desire for exclusivity.


    "Tiara, your face is bright red"


    "It''s Master Aqua''s fault..."


    When I take the sheet from Tiara Rose''s head, I see a red, pretty face. Aquasteed chuckled and gently mouthed good morning.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "What, your thinker was Tiara''s maid?"


    "Dear Keith, please don''t do any more..."


    When Tiara Rose and Aquasteed finished their dominance and headed under Keith, the brilliant proximity was where they were dealing. I''m sure Keith grabbed me, but I had some tears in my eyes when I was teased pathetically.


    Two people sitting on the couch drinking tea, but Tiara Rose was more concerned about the conversation than that.


    "Elliot liked Philine?


    "¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ I will remain silent"


    "Uh... Well, I''m sorry."


    Hearing more and more Elliot''s answers, Tiara Rose realizes that she has been shaken.


    - Speaking of which, you''ve never heard of anyone who likes Filine...


    Elliot is very good, and even his face is neat. As far as identity is concerned, he is a civilian as well - as a Tiara Rose individual, I wonder if there is also a future for the two of them to be united.


    If you only care about your status as a civilian, you can give Aquasteed a title of merit as his right-hand man.


    However, Filine would not immediately put in a no after judging only one point of her identity. You should be able to talk to yourself, and Tiara Rose thinks.


    In other words, I thought he must have been shaken somewhere other than his identity.


    "Don''t apologize...... Oh, the Tiara Rose flowers brought to you by Master Keith are planted in a dedicated garden. We also have a knight on the lookout, so no one will break in."


    "You don''t have to be so strict... But thanks."


    Tiara Rose thanked Elliot and sat down on the couch with Aquasteed.


    After a while, Filine comes with a brief breakfast - but nothing out of the ordinary.


    Without worrying about that, Keith explains the flowers.


    "What you can pick from Tiara''s flowers is the sugar I just gave you. Then, a very small amount of nectar can be picked."


    "I see."


    "And I can eat petals. Slightly sweet."


    - Wow, maybe I can make a new treat.


    Hearing Keith''s words, Tiara Rose feels groaned. Those eyes shined so hard that I couldn''t imagine waking up, nailing them to Keith''s brought Tiara flowers.


    Grab the flower gently and Aquasteed gives it to Tiara Rose''s hair. Even if you use large wheel flowers as ornaments, they are impeccable.


    "That''s Tiara''s flower. I can''t believe you look just like me, sweet everywhere."


    "! It''s about Aqua that you''re sweet about me..."


    Tiara Rose dyed her cheeks slightly as she touched the flowers she had put on.


    As for Keith, who''s been sitting on the couch in front of me and watching, do it roughly! I''m in the mood for it, but I can''t help it because he likes watching Tiara Rose too.


    I had no choice but to cut the story off forcefully and shift the subject to the sandy beach.


    "In the meantime, I brought all the sandy trees. All you have to do is fix up the rough sandy beach."


    "Keith, thank you"


    "Thank you. As for the sandy beach, let''s mobilize our personnel to clean it up."


    "Oh, I asked for it"


    The sandy beaches used to stop the tsunami are covered with bumps and holes or rolling large stones and corals that were at the bottom of the ocean.


    Fortunately, there''s no garbage or anything, so it won''t take that long to dispose of.


    "Tiara''s waiting at the castle because I''m coming."


    "Huh?"


    Tiara Rose unwittingly shakes her head when she hears Aquasteed''s words and was going to go with her. I''ve been involved in this case since the beginning. Tiara Rose couldn''t possibly just push the end of the last.


    "No, you can''t. Tiara, use these flowers to make sweets and wait."


    "Yeah, but that''s..."


    "I want to eat first, so it''s nice to meet you. If you can, you can come to the beach with it."


    - Mm-hmm. I can''t believe it''s that easy to make a new one.


    As an aquasteed, I didn''t want Tiara Rose to accompany me to a force job like cleaning up after. Although, of course, being tired is one of the major reasons.


    - But I know you''re worried about me.


    Rather, it also means that if you don''t have the strength to go, you''ll get your feet together...... I concluded that I should wait a long time, then I would make a delicious treat and deliver it by the end of the work.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    When Aquasteed went out putting the knight together, Tiara Rose was worried about what treats to make in her own kitchen.


    There are three types of ingredients to use: sugar, honey, and petals picked from tiara flowers. Of course, it is possible to use other existing seasonings, etc.


    To taste, Tiara Rose includes a single petal in her mouth.


    Once again, the sweet and gentle taste spread all over my mouth. Though there is no intense sweetness, I wonder if gentle flavors would be good for eating for a long time.


    "Like candy, what do you think?


    Then you can have fun in your mouth while you do something.


    Tiara Rose puts the sugar picked from the flowers in a small pan. The next thing I know, add water and set it on fire - maybe, I remember the sea blessing I was given.


    This is the power of the sea, or water. Although I imagine seawater, it is possible to create something other than normal water.


    Placing his hands on the pan, Tiara Rose explores the magic inside him and exercises the magic of the water.


    "Fits the best sugar, bring the water here..."


    Kopouri and water mix with the sugar in the overflowing pan so as to respond to Tiara Rose''s voice.


    "Yay, I succeeded!


    I don''t normally use magic, so I feel like I''m purely happy. Nobody''s watching me, so there''s no problem. Yes, I tell myself, stirring slowly over the fire.


    Add a little honey along the way and it will sparkle. It''s like they''re making magic treats, Tiara Rose thinks.


    When it turns beautiful golden, you can wrap the candy around the petals and let it cool down.


    "Yeah. It''s easy, but I think it worked"


    Where Tiara Rose nodded satisfactorily, Filine turned to see how it was going. "It looks delicious," he said, looking at the bekook candy he could do.


    "But it''s a little wasteful to eat. Very beautifully made, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Thank you, Philine. I think we''re all on the beach, so let''s go deliver."


    "Well. Waiting for His Highness Aquasteed to return here - oh, my God, Master Tiara Rose won''t do it, will he?"


    Filine smiles bitterly and arranges a carriage.


    I''m leaving immediately for the beach, but it''s about Elliot, of course, to talk on the road.


    "I think Elliot is a good guy..."


    "... that''s, well. Yes, but..."


    Philine laughs as troubled as she nods at Tiara Rose''s inquiry.


    "It''s a waste to me. Besides, my father is here to talk to me."


    "It was..."


    - You don''t mean you don''t like Elliot.


    But Tiara Rose thinks it would be tough to respond to Elliot''s thoughts if her parents were talking about the friendship.


    Filine''s house is the Baron''s. She''s a Tiara Rose maid, but somewhere she has the option of being a happy bride with a bride. Not many become samurai again after their marriage has settled.


    A heavy silence flowed in the carriage, and when I realized it, I reached the sandy beach in Isira''s mansion.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Dear Aqua!


    "Tiara! I had no idea you''d be here so soon"


    While smiling bitterly, Aquasteed, who was giving instructions to the knight, gently welcomes Tiara Rose. Next to it, he watched the sandy beach as Claire blurred and cleaned up.


    I didn''t know for a moment because it wasn''t my usual appearance in women''s clothing, but I soon found out that it was Fairy King Crail with the lumpy air.


    "Dear Clayle,"


    "It''s beautiful here, even though it''s full of stones. Tiara Rose"


    "... Yes. This is Pearl''s sea, so there''s no way it''s dirty."


    Claire laughs at Tiara Rose, who immediately agreed.


    I can be sure that this child will not abuse Pearl''s blessings. Yeah, I nodded, and when I tried to ask if Claire had made a treat...


    There''s been an anomaly in the ocean.


    From the bottom of the deep sea, a glimmer of light blew out like a fountain.


    The knights who were working unintentionally stop and are blinded by that fantastic sight. Only Claire will know what the hell happened.


    "No way, that''s..."


    He opens his eyes wide and Crail sees the light overflowing.


    It snubbed and poured down onto the sandy beach, gently enveloping the side.


    "Claire, is this...?


    To Aquasteed''s inquiry, Claire shakes her head quietly. In a small voice, he said, "Idiot." But a clear voice reaches Tiara Rose''s ear.


    The sparkling downpour of light cleanses the rough sandy beaches. The sand, which has been mixed with gravel, leads to a beautiful white, and the big stone returns to the sea.


    Launched corals appear as objects, creating new fun that is uncomfortable even on the ground.


    "The sandy beach is regenerating¡­. Dear Claire, is this Pearl''s...?


    "Yes, this is Pearl''s power."


    "Didn''t you bless us and run out of magic to the Fairy King of the Sea?


    To the affirmed clail, Aquasteed questions. Because I didn''t think a pearl without magic could do something like this.


    But Pearl used his powers.


    "This is not a goodbye from fright."


    ¨D¨D¨D¨D


    Pearl''s voice clings to the ears of the confused Tiara Roses.


    Tiara Rose speaks up to ask right away, but no response from Pearl. I just got anxious about what the hell is going on, and Claire opens her mouth looking lonely.


    "I also used the slightest amount of magic left in the pearl. Damn it, I don''t know whose punishment this is."


    "Claire, it''s..."


    "No, Aquasteed. I won''t forgive you for saying any more."


    A little magic left in the pearl.


    It was like a necessary driving force as a connection to restoring magic for the next hundred years. The absence of this magic means that we will be unable to remain conscious.


    Pearl squeezed his last strength and used up his magic by blessing this sea.


    That''s why I fell asleep. It was Claire, the fairy king, who instantly understood it. And with Claire''s reaction and calculation of her magic, Aquasteed began to give the same answer.


    "Dear Aqua, what the hell...?


    "Tiara Rose. This is something you don''t need to know, is it?


    "Eh! I''m sorry, Master Crail..."


    Ask what the hell is wrong with Pearl, but it is blocked by Crail. Soon Aquasteed comes in to help and gently strokes Tiara Rose.


    Aquasteed also decided that Tiara Rose, like Claire, didn''t have to know. Heart-friendly Tiara Rose will surely be deeply hurt and saddened to hear about Pearl.


    After looking at the sea lonely, Claire turns to Tiara Rose.


    "I''m sorry, say it cold. A treat made of tiara rose flowers, can I have it?


    "No, Master Claire. I made sweets like this."


    When I took it out of the package, Aquasteed and Claire shared the same sentiment that they were beautiful.


    Well, I''ll take one.


    "Yes. It''s delicious. - Huh?


    Pan, and.


    Drop the Baeko candy that Claire received into the sea.


    "This way, I thought it might reach Pearl."


    - I wonder if my candy will reach Master Pearl.


    I know I''m never liked, so I tilt my neck wondering. But if it reaches Pearl, who is in the palace of the sea - that must be nice, Tiara Rose thinks.


    Baeko candy falling into the sea melts and mixes with the color of the sea. The glittering golden sea reflects the color of the sky.


    - It''s like, there''s an sky in the ocean.


    Without saying a word, the Tiara Roses just looked out at the sea and prayed that there would be blessings for the future to come - ¡­.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    And then the sandy beach thing went back to the castle. No - Elliot bowed his head to Filine.


    "I''ll be absolutely happy. So could you give me some more time!


    "Hey...... Huh!


    Once they turned down a confession, now they made it in front of their own masters. Filine blushes in an instant and shakes her head about what she''s talking about.


    "I have to follow your father''s decision..."


    "I know that. But I really want to be with Filine...... I''ll make sure you get credit, so I want you to wait. I like Philine, who always works so hard."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - Wow, a fervent confession of love.


    Tiara Rose, who is not a party, keeps an eye on the sights that are sometimes played out. of - is blindfolded by Aquasteed.


    "Ah!"


    "No more peeking. We shouldn''t stick our necks in, so let''s go back to the room."


    "Mm-hmm. Okay."


    "Ah, Dear Tiara Rose! I''m with you."


    "Good luck, Philine!


    He was Philine, who reached out to the Lord for salvation, but said, "Fight! When I heard Tiara Rose''s support, I collapsed.


    Whether these two will be lovers to each other - still, a long way ahead of us.


    "Dear Aqua,"


    "Yeah?"


    In the hallway back to his room, Tiara Rose shakes Aquasteed''s hand all the time. Its hands that touch to grip the muggy are comfortable, and Aquasteed is driven by the urge to embrace even immediately.


    But I''ve learned enough that doing that in the hallway will piss me off.


    "I like it, I love it. ¡­ love, I am"


    "... thank you for choosing me. I am happy to be with Aqua."


    Tiara Rose tells Aquasteed how she feels as she dyes and scuffs her cheeks.


    Always, when you''re cute, like, love yourself - it''s more overwhelming that Aquasteed gives you the word.


    So I tried to tell him actively from myself.


    - Already, so that I think I''m absolutely fine. I want to tell Aqua, too.


    Tiara Rose strongly thought that even if Aquasteed was going to be drugged with love pills, she wanted to be confident and laughable that she was going to be okay.


    "Oh, already, sweetie. I love you, too."


    "Oh, here in the hallway...... eh"


    Aquasteed couldn''t have stopped in front of Tiara Rose, who said such a cute thing. Hold her tight and overlap her lips without gaining recognition.


    Snuggling gently, the sweet exhale spilled out of Tiara Rose''s mouth.


    "Ha-ha-ha, I''m embarrassed..."


    "He was cute, so I had no choice. Look, let''s get to the room."


    "Yikes!


    Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose and goes down the hallway twice as fast as ever.


    The different ladies and knights turned to the two of them with a smile that they would keep an eye on as usual.


    Thus, the Villain Warrant Lady had an amazing time not feeling anything but happy.

 46 1. Hidden Stages of Sequel Games

    The maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring was highly supportive and of course various events - so-called hidden events stages were also available.


    That''s something that''s not supposed to be officially announced, which made the girls more game-pickled...


    "I can''t believe there was a hidden stage in this sequel game too..."


    Groaning in a trembling voice was the villain''s warrant for Lapis Lazuli''s ring, who married the king prince of the neighboring country and married him to the stage of the sequel game.


    As you can see from what she said, she was playing this game in her previous life. Initially I was surprised to see if there was ever a reincarnation into the gaming world, but now I live very happily ever after.


    She is Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest.


    Lapis'' name was given to him by his country, Lapis Lazuli, and he is a villain warrant lady blessed by the Fairy King of the Woods and the Sea.


    "Mmm..."


    "Quiet, you shouldn''t. If I speak out loud, Master Aqua will wake up."


    At this hour when the clock needle is pointing late at night, his own husband, Aquasteed, is asleep next door. I''m sorry Tiara Rose woke me up even though I''m tired of doing business all day.


    The bedrooms of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed are accessible from each other''s rooms. In a large covered bed, in a tidy room. The moon you see through the window is so beautiful.


    Gently stroking Aquasteed''s dark blue hair gives her a soft look that seems pleasant. The golden eyes are closed, but I want you to rest now.


    The reason Tiara Rose is awake even though it''s late at night that... is because she''s excited to know the existence of a hidden stage.


    Akali, the heroine of Lapis Lazuli''s ring, was Japanese. He''s a race that loves maiden games, and he''s a strong player who also plays games that are the arena of today.


    It was written in such a letter from her that there was a hidden stage where only those blessed by the Fairy King could enter. Would you think that Tiara Rose, who knows its existence and is receiving blessings from the Fairy King, doesn''t want to go? No.


    "I love this game, too. If you can go to the hidden stage, I want to go......!


    Is there some kind of secret item? Or will an event occur? Either way, it makes no difference what I''m looking forward to.


    But there''s a problem.


    Tiara Rose died before the sequel game was released, so there''s not enough information to say at all. So much so that Akali, who also plays the sequel all the time, occasionally gives me information.


    - Lady Akali will enjoy playing with herself.


    In other words, Tiara Rose has to gather information on her own.


    "But I don''t think it''s that easy to get information on concealed stages...... Do you want to look into history and ask the fairies anyway?


    Whispering, thinking about what to do.


    If it were meant to be, it would be in the role of Duke''s Warlord - Isira Pearlant - the heroine in the sequel game that we should go to the hidden stage.


    of the previous one, and I''m sure no one in the game''s developers would think that the villain warrant lady would go. So Tiara Rose is going to come back to enjoy the hidden stage without taking too much care of it.


    I really hope I can ask around Keith, the fairy king of the woods, but I''m not sure I can explain it well when asked how I know the hidden stage exists.


    "Hmmm... just ask the library and the fairy - come on"


    I just came to a conclusion, and they pulled my arm a lot. When you blink your eyes at what the hell is going on, you have a beautiful golden color and a gaze.


    Tiara, what are you doing?


    "Dear Aqua... I''m sorry I woke you up..."


    I was going to be careful, but Aquasteed is sensitive to the signs. Blessed are the Fairy King of the Sky and the Fairy King of the Sea, the main offensive target of the sequel game.


    He was the thinker of Isira, the heroine, but Aquasteed chose Tiara Rose.


    Aquasteed Marine Forest.


    Being the king prince of the kingdom of Marine Forest, he has a busy day every day, yet - very, very much - loves and drowns Tiara Rose.


    "Oh, my body''s getting cold already"


    Aquasteed hugs him to share his body temperature and puts his face to Tiara Rose''s cold. He stroked his head and said, "Can''t sleep?" Ask.


    "... no. Sorry, I was thinking about the fairy."


    "Yeah?"


    "Fairies and their kings are not like us. ¡­ I wondered what kind of world you live in."


    Don''t say that you are very concerned about the world where you can prepare hidden stages, but tell them softly. If you delude it all like a lie, Aquasteed will surely rip it right off.


    Hearing Tiara Rose''s words, Aquasteed nodded, "I see."


    "Sure, we don''t know how fairies usually spend their time, and we don''t interfere disproportionately... well, there''s an exception called Tiara"


    "Am I the exception..."


    "Don''t you? Normally, fairies don''t bother to come and play under their opponents when they give their blessings."


    It was Tiara Rose who tried to argue that that was not the case, but I get stuck in words when I hear Aquasteed say Ugh.


    On second thought, the only fairies and fairy kings to come are under Tiara Rose. Aquasteed is also blessed by the Fairy King of the Sky Claire, but I have never seen the Fairy of the Sky or Claire visit it in person.


    "Sure, you just come to me..."


    "Damn, Tiara is oblivious to herself. I can''t help but worry."


    If someone doesn''t take it, or becomes anxious, Aquasteed puts his strength into the arms he hugs. I also hug Tiara Rose back all the time, disputing that I''m with her.


    "... there you are."


    "Oh."


    Slowly closing your eyes, sometimes late at night, drowsiness strikes Tiara Rose. Aquasteed strokes his back to gently refrain from looking at him like that and kisses Tiara Rose''s forehead, "Shall we go to sleep?"


    If you snort, all you have to do is leave yourself to a pleasant temperature and meltdown.


    "Good night, Dear Aqua..."


    "Good night, Tiara"


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The next day, Tiara Rose, who ran errands in the morning, took a trip to the library. What we look into is the information that leads to the fairy king''s hidden stage.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, you are as enthusiastic as ever..."


    It was Philine, the samurai, who called for a little rest. Serving me as a Tiara Rose samurai before I married her, she is a solid and dependable being.


    Let''s just say this is the only place I still have quite a grudge against my ex-fianc¨¦, Haltnights, for sticking his engagement out on Tiara Rose.


    "I want to know more about fairies."


    "Indeed, there were no fairies in our country."


    The only fairies live here in Marine Forest. As a result, neither Tiara Rose, who lived in the neighbouring country, had ever had any contact with the fairies.


    For this reason, Tiara Rose, who has been married, has little knowledge of the fairies.


    "But Dear Tiara Rose... You used to read quite a few fairy books and materials, didn''t you? Maybe you don''t have any more books you haven''t read?


    "Sure, yeah..."


    When I look at the bookshelves, all of them are books I''ve read. I sigh that I''m sure there won''t be any useful information because there''s no way I wouldn''t notice if I had information on the hidden stage.


    "Let''s take a look at the map of Marine Forest."


    "Is that a map?


    While the fairy book leaned his neck against the map, Filine took the map''s drawn book and offered it to Tiara Rose.


    It is easy to see with detailed Marine Forest buildings and mountains, but nothing can lead to a hidden stage. When I check the date of issue, I find out that it is a recent book.


    - But you don''t think anyone''s been to the fairy king''s hidden stage.


    Otherwise, it won''t be the hidden stage of the game. It''s where heroin steps first, which is why it''s hidden.


    "Thinking about it...... maybe an older map would be better than the recent one"


    "Is it an old map......? But what we have here is relatively new."


    I don''t have what I''m looking for and Tiara Rose drops her disappointing shoulder.


    "But you don''t think it means old maps will be discarded. It would also be relevant to the history of the country... yes, Tarmo would know."


    A short distance away, Tarmo the knight escorting Tiara Rose. Originally near Aquasteed, he is an excellent man attached as an exclusive escort from when Tiara Rose came to Marine Forest as her fianc¨¦e.


    When I speak to Tarmo, he immediately replies, "Yes, I do".


    "Old maps are managed by the Knights"


    "Yes, it was."


    Apparently the management was different from the library, and I laugh bitterly that no matter how many bookshelves I look at, I shouldn''t be able to find them.


    If it''s true, I''d like to pick it up right away, but the Knights are not the kind of place that Tiararose, the queen of the king''s prince, would go either. Or so, there''s no way Tarmo the escort is going to take this place off and pick it up.


    "Tomorrow, I''ll bring you"


    "Really? Thanks, glad!


    "But it''s rare to be shown interest even in old maps. Especially since women are not a very interesting matter."


    Hearing Talmo''s words, Tiara Rose does nod.


    "Sure, I think Marine Forest is good right now. But I thought you might find out more about fairies when it''s an old map. Which neighborhood was there a lot of forest and a lot of nature? Now that it''s a city and there''s no fairy, maybe it used to be there... that''s what I wanted to know"


    "Was it"


    I don''t really see the fairies right now, but I think they might have been different back in the day, which was more natural.


    - Compared to modern Japan, there''s quite a bit of nature though.


    Nature is very much cherished either way because it is only now and in the past in this world. Because magic is the dominant world, the air is beautiful.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, if you''re going to look at the map tomorrow...... will you be doing what you have planned for tomorrow by the end of the day?


    "Yeah, let''s do that."


    Nodding at the words of a good samurai, Tiara Rose left the library behind.

 47 2. Ancient Legends

    Tiara Rose has a small garden dedicated to Aquasteed.


    The garden, which was planted with colorful roses, also added the blooming pink flowers of Tiara Rose, which grew daily into a beautiful place. The gardeners, of course, but the fairies in the woods come to visit and take care of the plants as they do every day.


    At the entrance to the garden stands the escort Tarmo, and near Tiara Rose, who sits at the table, the samurai Filine refrains.


    So while having a tea party, Tiara Rose was staring at the old Marine Forest map she had brought to Talmo. I put the current map on the side and am also looking for differences between now and the old.


    "After all, the city is so much bigger than it used to be"


    It has grown more than once, and I can see the increase in the population with my eyes. In addition to that, there were more villages around here, the Wang capital. When I think of how it develops calmly, I know the royal arms very well.


    - From now on, I''m going to be a part of it.


    Though I''m a little confused when I think about it, I think if I had Aquasteed I''d be able to handle it.


    Looking at the map, I realize that the mountains behind the castle where I currently live and their surroundings have not changed for a long time. This is just where Keith, the Fairy King of the Woods, lives, so I can nod that humans aren''t hands on it.


    "But normally, you''re not supposed to know this is Keith''s territory."


    Is it some kind of hard place to put your hands on?


    Maybe it''s a royally owned land, so keep it that way, there''s a good chance. Besides, unlike kings, fairies often show their faces for what they do, and sometimes they pay attention.


    Tiara Rose thought there was also an operation to extend her legs from one end to the other where she was concerned...


    Thinking about where to start - the voice of Filine calling Tiara Rose gets in my ear. Looking back at what was going on, Aquasteed, who had stepped down his stewardship, had just shown himself.


    "Dear Aqua! Good job."


    "Thank you, Tiara. I heard you were looking at an old map, did you find anything interesting?


    "Ugh, that''s not particularly true..."


    Laughing a little troubled, Aquasteed also said, "Really?" and smile.


    I look at the map as I sit in my chair and narrow my eyes in nostalgia.


    "You haven''t changed much around this castle. It''s the place that leads to the woods where Fairy King Keith lives, so I''m sure no one''s got their hands on it. This is royal land."


    "The royal land...... means that the place where the fairy king lives is managed by the royal family?


    It seems that what Tiara Rose expected was a hit, and when asked, Aquasteed nodded. As far as the land inhabited by the Fairy King is concerned, it is forbidden to build buildings, as well as cities and villages. For this reason, Aquasteed said the area is managed by the royal family from generation to generation.


    - So, does that mean the royal family knows where the Fairy King lives?


    When he did get exposed to Keith, Aquasteed came to me to help by finding out where he was. Thinking about it, I guess there''s some material or something left.


    But I don''t think there was anything like that in the library, but one convinces me that there''s no such important material anywhere anybody can get it.


    "I mean management, or so that the Fairy King can live comfortably. It''s always been the rule not to put your hands on it."


    "Sure, the fairies prefer nature"


    Aquasteed snorts at Tiara Rose''s words as she sips tea. The fairies of the woods show themselves, along with the laughter they whisper when they do.


    It''s Tiara.


    "Oh, I know this! Map! ''


    "Good day. It''s amazing how you know the map"


    I think you know a lot more than that when you look at the fairies looking at the map that you spread out for fun. If you show me where you are now with your fingers, I''ll say, ''I know!'' And I get a cheerful reply.


    "The map was taught to the king."


    "To Keith? Looks like a big mess, you should take care of it..."


    As Tiara Rose admires her, she asks what else the fairy has taught her. Aquasteed also seemed interested when it came to fairy upbringing, and he listened quietly.


    Jumping full of little feathers, I''m trying to remember what I know as'' Afterwards''.


    ''Speaking of which, you were the first to tell me about the ring!


    "Ring?"


    ''Yes, there''s an important ring! A ring is the one Tiara is wearing!''


    Look at Tiara Rose''s left hand pharmacopoeia finger. Is this the ring? And I strain my chest so that I know. The gesture is adorable and I admire you for inadvertently laughing.


    - But I''m curious what a ring is.


    This game is a "ring" of lapis lazuli, so you don''t have to think about it as an important item. Even at weddings, a man gives a woman a ring.


    I''m sure there''s something serious about the ring that the fairy will first be taught by the king - Tiara Rose concludes in an exuberance alone.


    "What kind of ring is that?


    ''Mmm, I don''t know... even the King''s important thing!


    "Keith''s...?


    I did want to know what it was for, though it must be important. But the fairies didn''t seem to hear more than that, and Tiara Rose gave up on crying and hearing more than that.


    - I knew I''d have to look at the map and look for something suspicious.


    Stare at the map and hit the mountains and the sea. Although unfortunately only the sky could not have predicted at all.


    "... Tiara, maybe you''re thinking of something?


    "Huh..."


    Look enthusiastically at the map Tiara Rose and Aquasteed finds out if there''s anything. Peeping into Tiara Rose''s face, she said, "Is this also where you want to go?" and follow the Zubari certainty.


    I''m sure my heart will bounce, but Tiara Rose shakes her head slowly, careful not to put it on the surface.


    "Tiara, do you have somewhere you want to go? Speaking of which, there was a room where only the king could go ~! ''


    "The fairy king''s castle has lots of rooms."


    "Yeah!"


    Tiara Rose, who gave up only a little info on the ring, but hears that there is a room where only the Fairy King can go. I thought that was definitely the hidden stage.


    "Damn it. Fairies, if you take my Tiara under the Fairy King on your own, I won''t forgive you next time, will I?


    "Aqua Scary ~"


    "I''m not taking you."


    Because she is my queen, Aquasteed takes Tiara Rose''s hand and gently mouths her back. There was a slight lip noise and I felt my face turn slightly red.


    "Aqua..."


    "Tiara''s so cute, she always wants to touch me."


    That said, now he was gently kissed on the cheek, and Tiara Rose blushed to the ear.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    At the end of the tea party, Tiara Rose snuck out of the castle in the evening.


    I am asking Philine to relax because I am tired and take a little rest.


    Replace it with a qualitative piece and boot, not the dress you always wear. I was just a little excited that I might be wearing knee-length clothes for the first time since I was reborn.


    Fluffy long honey pink hair stands out, so gently tie it and hold down the volume. Additionally, when I was in disguise, I could still wear Dada glasses.


    "Yeah, this shouldn''t be easy for me!


    I was seriously satisfied with Tiara Rose herself, although I only looked like a nobleman of patience from anywhere. Yeah, I snuck out the room through the window to avoid being splashed by Tarmo, convinced that I could do it.


    "The first place to go is the sea..."


    I could walk closer in the woods, but it was more likely Keith would find me. Because Tiara Rose is going where heroin is supposed to go - I wanted to avoid that someone, someone else, would find me.


    I try to act modestly because it''s not an event that I do, which is a villain''s warrant lady.


    "... Dear Pearl, will you be all right?"


    Pearl, the fairy king of the sea, is falling asleep because he gave blessings to Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. I thought it wouldn''t happen for a while, and this time I wanted to be the first to look for a hidden stage in the ocean.


    If the king, the Lord, was asleep, he thought that there would be nothing wrong with the presence of the Villain Lady herself. If this is Isira, the heroine, it is not surprising that the awakening event of the Fairy King of the Sea has taken place.


    "You''re a villain''s warrant lady, so it might be nice to move..."


    Usually I go to sea with the carriage I have prepared, but this time nobody has prepared a carriage for me because I came out in confidence. Gently out of the castle, Tiara Rose went as far as the sea using a riding carriage.


    As always, the beautiful sea stretches out in front of you, but the sandy beach is also planted with Tiara Rose flowers, which grew under the power of Tiara Rose. Because the name was taken from the name, it is called the Tiara Rose flower as it is.


    Watching him grow well, a man in butler''s clothes stood near the sea.


    - Who could it be?


    This sea has Isira''s mansion nearby, but she''s not the same person as a butler who works there. Dark hair, rose red eyes. I''m worried that it''s going to be okay even though it''s going to go into the ocean now.


    As I tilted my neck, I decided to go through softly, not as hard as I could bear.


    I gently passed behind and tried to look around at the ocean, and a man in butler''s clothes turned to the lid - opening Rose Red''s eyes wide. He opens his mouth wide and looks at Tiara Rose with cancer.


    I''m going to unwittingly pull it off, but as a lady it''s not good enough, I just smile and confess all the time. Decided that he was someone who shouldn''t be too involved, Tiara Rose tries to leave early - but with words that have reached her ears, that leg stops.


    "Lapis Lazuli''s, Villain Lady......?


    "Huh...?


    - How do you know about the villain warrant?


    I guess it was a mistake to shake my body unexpectedly, the man approached Tiara Rose saying he was convinced about it.


    I try to escape, but my legs are faster for men. I don''t think I should, Tiara Rose raises her voice.


    "Oh, who are you?


    "! I apologize to the lady for this. I''m Olivia''s butler, Levi. I''m looking for the Fairy King''s ring, so can you help me? The Villain Lady Blessed by the Fairy King..."


    - You know about the fairy king''s ring?


    Deacon - Think about who Levi means Olivia. I''m fine with the aristocracy in this country because it''s all on my mind. That''s what I''m telling you, there''s one young lady that comes to mind.


    Olivia Ariadel. Though she is supposed to be a duke''s housemaid and has no contact with anyone in particular...

 48 3. Deacon to Know the Game

    Deacon named Levi standing in front of Tiara Rose.


    I don''t know him personally, and I''m suspicious that he immediately spotted himself in disguise. Above all, I know about fairies and rings.


    - Could it be the main character in the sequel game?


    That being the case, I can also be convinced that I know many things. Although Akali taught me about the target of the attack before - there must have been no one named Levi.


    Tiara Rose decided to think that she might be in a subcharacter standing position, even if it wasn''t the main one.


    "Actually, I''m looking for the Fairy King''s ring, too. I know the way, but I can''t go in there without the king''s blessing."


    "... who are you? My enemy?


    "No. I am Master Olivia''s butler"


    Nothing less or more, Levy tells.


    In an unspeakable atmosphere, Tiara Rose is breathtaking. Although suspicious, I know that you have information about the hidden stages.


    "A fairy king''s ring, what?


    "Oh, are you suspicious of me? A Fairy King''s Ring is a ring created by the Fairy King. Each possesses power, and whoever owns it can obtain further blessings -. You know that, right?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Sounds like a great event for the game, Tiara Rose thinks.


    But I''m also curious as to why the Lady''s butler is acting alone. The position of a completely irrelevant character butler is unnatural and extreme.


    "In the meantime, why don''t we go to a place where there''s a hidden stage of the ocean?


    Levy tells me you don''t have to go all the way inside the hidden stage just to see something.... Think of it then, Tiara Rose nods. It''s the thread of information I found, so it''s good to follow through.


    - I need to find out why you have this information.


    It is also possible that the Japanese, who have been reincarnated like themselves,


    "So the hidden stage of the Fairy King of the Sea is certainly in the cove over there..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - You''ve never been here in person?


    With a mouthful as if someone had asked, Tiara Rose finds herself uncomfortable.


    Walking along the white sandy beach and looking a little far-sighted is a cove. The quiet wave noise of Come on grows louder, and beautiful corals are pictured in sight.


    As always, the sea and sandy beaches managed by Isira are beautiful, staring grudgingly at them. I''m driven by the urge to watch all the time, but now I have to be much more patient and look for the hidden stages of the ocean.


    I go into the cove, listening to Levi''s guidance, "Here it is".


    Smaller fish swim around freely than they did when they were on the beach, and although it''s supposed to be a blue sea, the coral colors also look very colorful in phase.


    "They can go hidden stages from between those corals, in the deepest part of the cove - maybe, didn''t you know? Lady Villain Warrant, Lady Tiara Rose of Her Royal Highness Aquasteed."


    "... you know me very well."


    "I am not a stranger to His Royal Highness the King of this country."


    Becoming a rocky part, Levi offers Tiara Rose''s hand. Apparently they escort me not to fall, but now I refused because I can''t decide if I''m an enemy or an ally.


    Levy goes to the coral, which is the entrance, without anything to worry about it. As Tiara Rose did not reply to anything, it can be seen that the answer to the question of whether she did not know was affirmative and received.


    - Well, actually, I don''t know anything.


    One breath that might be better than a weird blur.


    "Behind this coral."


    "... no weird philosophy whatsoever, you''re a normal coral"


    "Unfortunately, I don''t even know how to get in. If you''re Dear Tiara Rose, can you come in?


    Beautiful pink corals are no different from normal ones all the time. But if this is the entrance, maybe there''s some trick.


    Tiara Rose gently reaches out and touches the coral.


    "Ah..."


    It''s supposed to be cold because it''s a sea coral, but the area Tiara Rose touches has twitching heat. I accidentally let go of my hand and I said, "What''s up?" and see Tiara Rose as Levi asks.


    I said I couldn''t get in because I don''t have blessings, so Levy is touching the coral, but I can''t feel the heat.


    When Tiara Rose touched the coral again, her hands went into the coral, attacked by the feeling of sinking into something pungent. Undoubtedly, this is the hidden stage, and I can see that only myself, blessed by the Fairy King of the Sea, can pass by.


    Tiara Rose has just told Levi that there''s no doubt about it, and she gets a bell-like, cute voice in her ear.


    "Dear Tiara Rose?


    "... Dear Isira"


    They were taking care of the ocean. Isira was just walking over here saying, "I saw a shadow..."


    I''m a little disappointed that you were supposed to be disguised, but once again, you were instantly spotted. How could anyone see through their disguise... Tiara Rose tilted her neck.


    "What are you doing here... Deacon of Master Olivia?


    "You know what? Dear Isira,"


    "Yes, because I have met Master Olivia many times."


    Isira wonders about the unusual combination of the two, but she doesn''t ask in depth if there''s any reason. However, is it okay to be alone with a man even though Aquasteed is absent...... though it went through the back of my brain.


    "I can confirm, so I''m going home. Dear Tiara Rose, I would love to talk to you again."


    Levi, who touches the coral satisfactorily, turns back his curly heel. I''m not going to go deeper into Levi, who just had Tiara Rose too, so I won''t say anything.


    of - read the air or not, Isira opens her mouth.


    "You, Lady Tiara Rose, the Queen of His Highness Aquasteed, are rude."


    "Dear Isira!?"


    Isira, who normally relaxes, roughed up her voice as if she couldn''t tolerate being treated lightly with Tiara Rose.


    I''m angry that I''m leaving someone who''s taller than me to go home first.


    Seeing Isira look like that, Levi openly sighs.


    "It''s lame to rough up your voice. I don''t think it''s very much the same Duke''s Lady as my Olivia."


    "Huh...!


    "You''re not Olivia''s enemy for an unblessed sequel heroine to the Fairy King of the Sea"


    Levy left the cove behind, as if to throw up a throw-up dialogue.


    All that was left was Isira with her mouth open and her eyes blinking, and Tiara Rose with her head wondering who Levi was.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Sweet for Isira''s word "I''ll send it," Tiara Rose was rocked by the carriage. When I look at Isira sitting across the street, my expression is dark as to whether the earlier exchange was a shock.


    "Dear Isira... Um, what is it with you, Levi, and Olivia, who you serve?


    "Didn''t you know Master Tiara Rose?


    "Yeah, I was just taking a little walk earlier... and I just met Levi."


    When I tell him that it was the first time I met him, he says, "You did," and Isira shows him just a little relief.


    Then slowly, Isira starts talking about the two of us.


    "Dear Olivia, the House of the Duke of Ariadel and my house¡­ are in conflict one way or another. You know that, don''t you, Tiara Rose?


    "Yeah, that''s about it..."


    "It''s just that the only people I don''t get along with are my comrades, and it''s not like me and Olivia don''t get along."


    Isira tells me that small places were often played.


    It''s just that Olivia seemed like a slightly unusual young lady, taking her butler Levy to various places for sightseeing.


    If that''s historical architecture or beautiful natural vistas...... But Olivia''s whereabouts had changed somewhere. Lapis Lazuli kingdom, especially if it''s a creek without weird philosophy, a small bakery in the city, a library, far away. It was all about places that weren''t tourist destinations, Isira says.


    "... maybe I shouldn''t say much to Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Never mind, tell me, Master Isira"


    "Well, I''m talking about when I''m just under ten. There was talk of Olivia as the fianc¨¦e of His Highness Aquasteed¡­"


    - Yeah, that, maybe.


    "His Majesty and the Duke of Ariadel entered into an engagement once. They say, without authorization to our Olivia."


    "Mudan..."


    I don''t know what that is, I think Tiara Rose is just pathetic. It''s good faith to tell them, even if it''s a political marriage you can''t refuse.


    But then, I lean my neck.


    "I didn''t know Aqua was engaged."


    Surely, there shouldn''t have been any fianc¨¦es when I studied at the Royal Lapis Lazuli School. Besides, it was also strange that if it had been, the king prince of the neighbouring country - Tiara Rose - did not know.


    "No, Master Tiara Rose. You two were definitely engaged by your parents, but Olivia hated it when she found out about it so badly... that, without standing for a week, the engagement seemed dissolved"


    "Well... is that what happened?


    Tiara Rose tilts her neck in a different way wondering what the hell was wrong with Aquasteed. No, I don''t know if I would have been able to marry Aquasteed by now if my engagement hadn''t dissolved.


    "Yes, I just don''t know why... Maybe someone else admired it."


    If that was the case, Isira says that that strange sightseeing might have been a date.


    I see, while nodding, Tiara Rose also thinks that her opponent is Levi... Even though I''m a butler, I was forsaking the name of the lady I serve...


    - No, more than that.


    "Olivia is a sequel villain!?"


    "Dear Tiara Rose? Hey, hey, hey.


    "Oh, no, it''s nothing, Master Isira... Well, I just got upset because I didn''t know Master Aqua had a fianc¨¦e..."


    When he lays down his face a little, Isira agrees with Tiara Rose, "Right?


    As Tiara Rose, I was full of heads about the villain warrant for the sequel that I found all the while. Even though it''s a maiden game, it''s weirder that Aquasteed, the king''s prince, was free.


    "It''s just..."


    "Master Isira?


    Tiara Rose tilts her neck wondering if there is anything still to Isira with a slightly troubled look on her face. Encouraging him to continue, he frowned if he didn''t want to say much.


    There''s only one thing the heroine of the sequel doesn''t want to say about the villain''s warrant for the sequel. Harassment of heroines, carried out by the villain''s maid.


    Maybe he was close at a young age, but now harassment has begun.


    "To Master Olivia, has something been done? Dear Isira,"


    "!... Yes. Well, Olivia seems to be circulating my bad rumors regularly for some reason..."


    "Rumor, is it"


    "It''s not a big deal. Recently the sea has been dirty, you swim too much in the sea and your hair is crispy, or you have gained weight from eating too much sweets...... Yeah, but I do eat too many Tiara Rose treats these days because they''re delicious."


    If you''re spreading a bad rumor - Olivia''s definitely the villain''s warrant for the sequel - even as you get a little carried away by the seemingly retarded rumors.


    I don''t know what you''re up to using Levi, but I''m more than likely aware of the game. To meet him once, Tiara Rose thought to visit the mansion.

 49 4. Tiara Rose Strength

    I was waiting for Tiara Rose, who gave Isira a carriage ride to Royal Castle, which was a good smile - His Royal Highness Prince Wang.


    - Wow, Master Aqua is so angry...


    I''m glad I snuck out, but I couldn''t sneak back in. No, it had been quite a while in the first place, though it was likely to have been either way.


    "Welcome back, Tiara"


    "I''m home now..."


    "Are you feeling well enough?


    "............... Yes, totally"


    Speaking of which, I said I was going to bed because I was ill. Tiara Rose could only flinch her expression and smile back at Aquasteed.


    Behind Aquasteed, Philine refrains from smiling again at this. I felt this one endlessly angry, and Tiara Rose honestly apologized.


    Let''s make something sweet as an apology to the two of you who made me worry. Tiara Rose thought so and tried to turn a blind eye to her kitchen - realizing there was a no-entry bill at the entrance.


    "Oh, you shouldn''t have to until you''re feeling better."


    That said, Aquasteed strokes the dust and Tiara Rose''s hair.


    "Let''s focus for a while on vegetables and other meals that seem good for you, Dear Tiara Rose."


    Filine grins, too, as she strikes the chase.


    ".................. Yes"


    - I didn''t think you''d be banned from sweets.


    It''s nothing to make, I can stand it. But I can''t believe you even banned me from eating. Tiara Rose loves sweets and maiden games, although she felt like crying by herself in her room.


    Give up the fairy king''s hidden stage for a treat?


    Giving up sweets for the maiden game?


    When asked which one to put on the balance - now, no matter what, Tiara Rose sighed softly so the two of them wouldn''t notice.


    Aquasteed lowers the filine and Tiara Rose sits on the couch. Aquasteed sits right next to him and looks seriously at Tiara Rose.


    "What''s wrong?


    "Think it''s kind of fresh. I never imagined Tiara would dress like that."


    "Oh......"


    Not a beautiful dress, as usual, but a piece worn in disguise. Plus, I wear Dada glasses, so I guess the impression is pretty different even if I soon find out it''s Tiara Rose.


    Tiara Rose rose once up from the couch and twirled for a spin on the spot. Keep bowing and saying, "What do you say?" and laughs like a light.


    Although it is easier to move than the dress, I think it would be uncomfortable to stand next to Aquasteed because it is a different outfit. It may seem like a combination of common people and Prince Wang...... what a tiara rose thinks, but from the looks of it, it just looks like the noble princess is playing.


    "So how did Tiara get out of the castle?


    Aquasteed takes Tiara Rose''s hand and makes her sit on her own lap.


    I was relieved because they didn''t seem to ask why, but that didn''t happen. But I was looking for the fairy king''s hidden stage... and I can''t be honest with you.


    Troubled to figure out what to do, Aquasteed enters a position where he waits without saying anything as he tangles his fingers in Tiara Rose''s hair.


    - Ugh, pressure!


    When I look at Aquasteed as I swim my eyes, my beautiful golden eyes stare at me. The fingertip I was playing with at the tip of my hair stroked Tiara Rose''s shoulder, tracing her neck and then touching her cheek.


    "No," whispers a low voice in his ear as he turns to the tickle.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "I thought you were a dear princess, but you''re like a free bird that flies away easily"


    "I was worried, I''m sorry. I want to know about the Fairy King, about this country."


    I thought I''d look around a lot on my own, and I don''t tell him what the real purpose is. It''s true that I wanted to know, so I''m not lying......


    It''s just Tiara Rose''s circumstance that the information moves confidentially because it''s a hidden stage in the game and if it''s supposed to be, it''s not who you''re supposed to be.


    "I''m glad Tiara thinks of this country."


    "Oh, yeah," the voice lifts as Aquasteed''s fingertips stroke Tiara Rose''s cheek.


    Tiara Rose squeezes her eyes wondering what''s wrong with the voice that even says it''s a good idea. The look on Aquasteed''s face, which was grumpy, is brightening somewhere.


    "Hey, Tiara. Shall we date?"


    "Huh?"


    The word "date" means "date."


    Going somewhere with two of us is just enough to count with one hand. That would be so much fun, Tiara Rose makes her chest bounce. Nod immediately, raise your hand and declare.


    "I want to date Master Aqua!


    "Then it''s settled."


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    A few days after scheduling, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed went on a date to the city.


    Sometimes I go out hiding my identity, although I''m not entirely alone because my escort is a little far away. I try to tangle my fingers, hold hands, and remember the first time I came to Marine Forest.


    Originally a beautiful city, but now even more...


    "It would''ve been a lot more gorgeous, wouldn''t it?


    "Yes. My flowers - it''s embarrassing, though"


    By the power blessed by the Fairy King of the Forest, Tiara Rose blossomed a beautiful pink flower. It was set as the national flower of Marine Forest and can now be planted all over the city.


    Nevertheless, the whole city has not yet been filled with flowers. There are many places where people are constructing flowers for planting and decorating.


    - Flowers, I didn''t think I''d be named.


    "The flowers called Tiara Rose are sweet, and many people want to grow them and use them as condiments for cooking. Of course, that''s what Tiara Rose, the person who created the flowers, does, and if her own flowers develop the dishes and treats, she can''t hope.


    "I wonder if there will be more treats with flowers..."


    "Tiara really likes sweets."


    "Oh, I''ll see you when I..."


    I only buy one round at a florist who already sells Tiara Rose flowers, and Aquasteed plugs it into Tiara Rose''s hair. "Yeah, you''re cute," he laughs, "no sweets yet," though.


    Tiara Rose hasn''t eaten or made any treats since she snuck out of the royal castle. Though not so much withdrawal symptoms, the frequency of thinking about sweets is unfortunately increasing.


    "Well, I like Tiara because she''s cute too..."


    "Aqua!


    Aquasteed drew Tiara Rose''s arm around him for a while, and lay it gently over his lips.


    We left in just a moment, but this is the whole city - and just so many people have witnessed it. Aquasteed chuckles when she sees Tiara Rose blushing with trembling.


    "From me, Tiara''s sweeter than a treat, though."


    "~ ~!"


    Aquasteed laughs when he says cake is not his eye.


    Even if they don''t say that, even Tiara Rose is sweeter and loves Aquasteed if it''s a treat. But I can''t talk about it here because I''m ashamed.


    - It''s just Aqua, sloppy.


    How rude of me to think that there is no such thing as shame. Staring back brings back the laughter of Aquasteed, who seems to be having fun.


    - No, I love it.


    It''s totally at Aquasteed''s pace, but I like that, so there''s nothing Tiara Rose can do about it.


    - Yeah, but.


    "Tiara?"


    With a little thought in mind, Aquasteed calls Tiara Rose to ask what''s going on. I laugh dull at that, and Tiara Rose responds with pleasure.


    "When I was in the castle, I could see Aqua differently and I thought it was fresh."


    "Really?"


    "Yes, Aqua in the castle is cool and cool, but she looks cuter when she goes out to the city and she''s shaggier than usual"


    Touch the flowers I just got for Aquasteed and tell them that I usually have my hair and dress well done.


    Now they are both lightly dressed and would be considered aristocrats, but no one would realize that they are the king prince of this country and his queen. That''s exciting for both of us, too.


    "About as cute as Tiara is to say about me."


    "Of course, I don''t like to think of Master Aqua as cute except me!


    I swell my cheeks up a lot and this is all I''ll never give in, Tiara Rose tells me.


    ''Cause it''s my wife''s privilege.''


    "Oh, you''ve already done that. My wife is too cute to be in trouble."


    "Dear Aqua - Huh?


    As we walked twisted together, that was reflected in Tiara Rose''s sight. Vendors planting Tiara Rose flowers over the shoulders of Aquasteed and on a brick roof.


    A pile of bricks that was piled up there swung, trying to fall - no, they fell. Move into Tiara Rose''s sight like a slow motion, no voice. There''s a little kid playing under the roof, and he''s gonna get hurt badly as he is.


    - Dear Aqua, no, we can''t make it!


    Seeing how Tiara Rose is doing, Aquasteed also looks right back. I got an idea of the situation, but it was Tiara Rose who moved one step faster.


    "Sea Blessings, protect your children...... Huh!


    "Tiara!"


    Tiara Rose reaches out desperately and runs under the children.


    I don''t like magic, but I have a blessed protection for the ocean. When you rely on it to raise your voice, a clear membrane of water can be made to envelop the children. The fallen brick hit the water protection and fell to the ground.


    "Ha, ha... good"


    I managed to stop the kids before they hit the brick.


    I think again that the sea blessings Pearl received are amazing. The relief leaves Tiara Rose sitting on the spot.


    Immediately Aquasteed rushes over and hugs Tiara Rose.


    Moments.


    Wow, cheers roll up from around me.


    Awesome, amazing magic, everyone rejoices in the safety of their children and praises Tiara Rose.


    "Wow, lady! You''re still young, but you have a lot of power."


    "Thanks for saving my son...... Huh!


    "No... I''m glad I''m not hurt"


    Respond to people, relieved in Aquasteed''s arms.


    Soon the contractor who was working on it will also come down and apologize to Tiara Rose and the children for the tremendous momentum. I honestly apologize for the mismanagement and say it when I''m careful not to wake up again.


    "I''m fine, so apologize to the children"


    "Yes......! Thank you so much for your help!!"


    I immediately went to the children and their parents, and the place was clear.


    With force in Aquasteed''s arm holding Tiara Rose, she leaned her neck wondering what was going on - and Aquasteed had an unspeakable look on her face.


    "Dear Aqua?


    "Is Tiara okay? Use your powers, no weirdness or tiredness?


    "Yes, I''m fine. Thank you, Master Aqua."


    Good, then, Aquasteed gently stroked Tiara Rose''s hair.

 50 5. The Royal Mission

    It gets deeper at night and Aquasteed is the only one in the office. I will look through a large number of documents and put them separately between what I will proceed with as soon as possible and what I can later turn.


    I would have had an escort in front of the door, but I''m already letting him back down. Aquasteed is strong, so if you''re in the royal castle, you definitely need an escort¡­


    "Why don''t you get some rest, Dear Aquasteed"


    "... Elliot"


    "Isn''t that a good job after tomorrow?"


    Nothing. Don''t you need to hurry now? And Elliot, with his face in the office, tells him.


    "I''m already around twenty-four, do you realize that?


    "That''s about it, I know"


    "I don''t know. Dear Tiara Rose, aren''t you worried?


    Normally, however late, Aquasteed returns before the date changes to the room where Tiara Rose is waiting. Knowing that, Elliot came to see Aquasteed in suspicion.


    Brew tea and place it in front of your own husband looking at the paperwork. My body was cold and I knew right away that fatigue was showing up on my face.


    Take a sip and say, "I know," again.


    Aquasteed stretched out a long time and looked at Elliot as he leaned against the back of the chair.


    "What?


    "... Elliot, too, did you see that?


    "Saw what? Oh, you mean Tiara Rose."


    Outstanding proximity immediately understands what Aquasteed is trying to say.


    During her date with Tiara Rose, Aquasteed thought she was badly impudent for not being able to do anything.


    They''re both amazing from Elliot''s point of view, but as a man, Aquasteed has no choice because he wants to protect Tiara Rose.


    Blessed by Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea, Tiara Rose had the blessing of a wall of water that prevented everything.


    This is a conservative blessing of the sea, enveloping Tiara Rose herself with the magical power of a thin sea. It also absorbs physical shocks and so on, thus treasuring it.


    Aquasteed received the blessing of attack specialization. They go very well together because they are paired, but I also wanted the power to protect Tiara Rose...... and I think.


    "Don''t get stronger and stronger sometime, even though I was protecting you"


    "... do you miss me? Dear Aquasteed,"


    "Lonely, huh? I think it''s a little different."


    Put the last paperwork on your desk and take a breath "That''s it".


    "Everyone would think Tiara Rose deserved to stand next to me"


    "Yeah. Now, you think. At the time of blessing by the Fairy King of the Woods, there is no way the Queen deserves it"


    "... if it''s true, I''ve always wanted to keep you locked up"


    To Aquasteed''s words, Elliot laughs quietly.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, that you are not just a woman who can be surrounded by nothing... aren''t you most familiar with Master Aquasteed"


    "I know that too."


    - I want to be stronger.


    I want to be strong so I don''t fade when I stand next to Tiara Rose. Aquasteed strongly thought so.


    I was proud of Tiara Rose for helping the people, but even that I wanted to protect every Tiara Rose. It''s only a chunk of monopoly greed, but that''s what I thought, so I can''t help it.


    "In the meantime, Master Aquasteed better get back to his room as soon as possible"


    "Elliot?"


    "Philine said Tiara Rose wasn''t asleep yet, was she?


    "... say that quickly"


    I told him I could stay asleep first, but no - because of Tiara Rose''s character, he was more likely to be awake.


    Aquasteed immediately jumped out of the office and went back to his room.


    "Ahhh. I wish I was at Master Tiara Rose''s rather than thinking alone. Master Aquasteed is really cool."


    While cleaning out the dried teacup, Elliot "is the baking master of care" all alone.


    "In the first place, if Master Aquasteed were so strong and worried about being weak... wouldn''t I be less than a bug"


    I didn''t say exactly how strong you were going to be.


    I only knew clearly that the future of this country was cheap.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Even if you want to sleep more - morning comes equal.


    From inside the bed, Tiara Rose stares at Aquasteed, who dresses in a blur.


    It''s nice to have been waiting for my late returning husband, but it was just a little hard to wake up as usual. Aquasteed is also supposed to be sleepless, but that look remains the same as usual.


    - Master Aqua, aren''t you tired?


    I just wanted to sleep so little myself.


    "Yes, Tiara"


    "Yes?"


    Makes a sinister look at Tiara Rose as she yawns but gets out of bed, "It''s night......"


    "What''s wrong?


    Tie Aquasteed''s tie, while tilting his neck. I''m worried that maybe I''ll be home late today.


    Reach out and gently stroke Aquasteed''s hair and tell him, "Don''t push me too hard," he said.


    "Thank you, Tiara. Actually, your father told me to have dinner with you. Anything, he wants to talk to me."


    "Were you..."


    The two of us are having dinner as much as we can, but not every day. Sometimes it''s convenient to work, separate like this. Tiara Rose nodded honestly, "Okay," she admitted.


    The father of Aquasteed, Prince Wang - Sotiris Marine Forest.


    King of Marine Forest, but not blessed by the Fairy King. Though blessed by the fairies of the sky and the sea.


    But still, as the king of this country, there are things I know.


    Aquasteed, invited to his dinner seat, cut up his clerkship early and headed under the king.


    Thick curtains shut out the light from the outside and only the chandelier lights up inside the room. In the middle of a large room, a small desk that doesn''t look familiar. Warm food had already been served.


    And most importantly - they''re paying people, and the proximity is barely paying.


    - What the hell are you talking about?


    Seeing an unprecedented sight, Aquasteed stares at his face.


    Well, it''s like we''re gonna have a secret conversation.


    No, I guess I will.


    "Sorry for the sudden, Aqua."


    "No. Is something wrong?


    When he gets to his seat, the king pours his own wine.


    Watching it still, the king''s gaze shifts to Aquasteed''s left hand on the fence. Looks like you''re looking at one finger at a time, but there''s nothing decorative in Aquasteed''s hands.


    "What''s wrong with my hand?


    To hold a sword, Aquasteed doesn''t usually get the kind of decoration.


    "Blessed be the sky and the sea. I thought you would be."


    "There''s something in the royal family that''s been told from generation to generation. Only the king should know, and not even the queen can know the description in the book."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Aquasteed understands that the story that will be told now is true only with the eyes of a serious father. I don''t know what kind of anecdote they''re going to hear - I don''t even think of fine dust.


    Even if my father didn''t get the blessing of the Fairy King, it doesn''t make any difference that he''s a king. I don''t think we''re talking about anecdotes.


    But.


    "I''m not a king yet. Are you sure?


    "You, loved by the Fairy King, cannot be king."


    "Father..."


    The father showed his chest stretched that his son was very proud to do what he could not have accomplished.


    "The king of Marine Forest is said to be the first true king with three rings in his arms"


    "The ring, is it?


    - Oh, that''s why Father saw my fingers.


    Aquasteed has no contact whatsoever with the ring, except he gave it to Tiara Rose when she was getting married. Father - even on the ring that Sotiris says, of course I don''t know.


    "It''s just that no king has ever gotten that ring," he said.


    "Who as one, is it?


    Sotiris nodded quietly as Aquasteed inquired.


    How is this story handed down when you don''t have a record of getting the ring? And, Aquasteed conceives. There may be a possibility that someone made it up.


    Seeing Aquasteed looking suspicious, Sotiris asked, "Can you believe it?" and opens his mouth. Of course, I can''t believe it right away.


    "There''s no evidence anywhere that there''s really that ring..."


    "Oh, you''re right"


    While affirming Aquasteed''s words, Sotiris goes on to say "but".


    "Directly from the Fairy King, he said there was a king who heard about the ring."


    "... I see"


    Surely the Fairy King himself would have trustworthy information if he had told him that there was a ring. Even if you haven''t had that ring in your hands as a single person before.


    Think that if you ask Claire, she might get some information. Blessed also by Pearl, contact is impossible because he is sleeping at the bottom of the deep sea.


    "The true king is supposed to be able to create a ring with the power he wants"


    "Is that the fairy king..."


    Aquasteed thinks you deserve the power of a fairy king who can unite each nature.


    - The power of a true king, huh?


    The details of what it is, he said, do not even know Sotiris. I guess I''ve lost my accuracy along the way because of what I''ve been hearing in detail.


    - Can I get that ring?


    Blessed are the two fairy kings, but the diagram of Keith blessing Aquasteed - unfortunately I could not imagine.


    Still, it will stick better that Claire, the Fairy King in the Sky, will bless Tiara Rose.


    "There are no conditions or anything like that to get that ring?


    "I don''t know about the king''s love - but even the blessed king couldn''t get the ring."


    No one knows, Sotiris tells him powerless.


    "Okay. Thank you for talking to me.... Come on, let''s have it because it''s going to get cold"


    "Right."


    In a quiet room, the two eat quietly. Each came up with something and wondered what they could do for this country - and.


    - If this story is true.


    Behind Aquasteed''s brain, one thought came to mind.

 51 6. Sea Rings

    Tiara Rose was pissed off by Aquasteed for sneaking out and banning her favorite sweets.


    But the fairy king''s hidden stage really bothers me. He wants to go to the back of the hidden aisle where Levy taught me to go and see what''s there.


    "But Master Aqua''s gonna piss me off... but I want to go, but he''s gonna piss me off... Ugh, what am I gonna do"


    Try to fall asleep on your couch and sigh. If Philine was here, she''d be pissed off for behaving badly, but now she''s lucky to be alone in her room. Rolling asleep without worrying, now think about what to do.


    And then, my head clears.


    "I knew I had to go...!


    Bullshit, I woke up from the couch and wondered how Tiara Rose hadn''t noticed such a pivotal thing. I realized I had to go to the fairy king''s hidden stage.


    - If it were meant to be, where Isira should go.


    But Isira, the heroine, has not received the blessing of the Fairy King. I mean, Isira, who''s supposed to go, can''t go.


    Maybe there''s something important for the future of this country. Whatever, it''s a big event called the Fairy King''s Hidden Stage.


    "If it''s something that needs the fairy king''s hidden stage...... Master Aqua has a blessing too, so you can go"


    Tiararose thinks that Aquasteed, the king prince, should go rather than himself. However, the question is, do I have to explain why Tiara Rose knows such a place......


    In the meantime, I concluded that I should think about it when the time came.


    "But the question is how do we get out of the castle and go to the fairy king''s hidden stage... right"


    I know that Tiara Rose has snuck out of it, so there have been more insignificant escorts. Of course, if you honestly told him you wanted to go out, your permission would go down, but that shouldn''t be the case.


    Because Tiara Rose, the villain warrant lady, can''t play a largely hidden stage.


    If so, I''m sorry that the game scenario that should have twisted. ¡­ although it has already been quite twisted.


    - Besides, there are people who know the game besides me.


    That butler, Levi, should definitely know about this maiden game. I couldn''t really talk about it, so I still don''t know the details.


    "I have Master Aqua at night, so I can''t get out of it. or there are phillines and tarmos during the day..."


    Besides, most importantly, I go to the fairy king''s hidden stage and I don''t know how long I''ll be back. I can''t make an alibi, and I think it''s packed.


    Now, I''m thinking about what''s going on, and there''s the sound of a concoction knocking on the window.


    ¡­¡­


    What the hell, I look at my own window. There''s got to be a knight around outside, so there''s no way a suspicious man could be here.


    - Could it be, Master Aqua?


    Previously, before we were married yet...... I remember Aquasteed coming to Lapis Lazuli''s own window. I finished talking on the veranda then.


    But now there''s no reason to sneak up on me. When I opened the curtain to see what was going on, Levi stood there looking grumpy.


    "Hih!


    Uh, uh, uh, why is the butler of the sequel villain warrant here? There can be no easy way to reach the window of Tiara Rose''s room, the queen of Aquasteed, the king''s prince.


    When he accidentally raises his voice, Levi brings his fingers to his mouth and quietly expresses his will.


    "Why are you here, Levi..."


    "Excuse me for a moment, the hidden passage of the royal castle."


    "Huh..."


    While I think it''s a state secret, I put up with the idea that if you know about the game, it might be related.


    "Let''s get the ring quick," says Levy, surprised at what he''s done.


    - Levi wants a ring?


    Maybe the villain''s warrant to serve...... though Olivia wants it. Without Tiara Rose responding, Levi does not hesitate to enter Tiara Rose''s room.


    "Hey, you......! Don''t go into your room on your own!


    "It''s just now, it''s two o''clock in the afternoon"


    "Sounds like you should," Levi mutters as she checks her pocket watch.


    Tiara Rose, who doesn''t want to hear what the hell I think I should be doing, but that''s the only way I''m going to be able to say it here.


    That''s right.


    That we get out of the royal castle and go to the hidden stage of the Fairy King of the Sea.


    Levy follows the wall of the room slowly looking for something with his hands in white gloves. Tiara Rose couldn''t kick Levy out of knowing about a game she didn''t know, even though she wasn''t sure whether to call Tarmo.


    - Could there be a hidden passage in this room?


    Because it is the Princess Wang''s room, I think Tiara Rose will be there, although she hasn''t asked. As soon as Levy said, "Right here," he spun the wall.


    "... surprised. I can''t believe this trick was here."


    "It''s a royal evacuation route. Get out of here and get the ring of the Fairy King of the Sea. Otherwise, I''m going to have Olivia''s deficiency."


    Levi reaches out to Tiara Rose and tells her, "I''ll be there soon," he says.


    "But..."


    "You can keep it locked inside. All you have to do is tell them you slept when you got back."


    "... ok"


    While I was worried about what to do, in the end, the armament went up to the fairy king''s hidden stage. If you hurry home, you won''t be able to do it again... I used a hidden passage to get out of the royal castle.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The only thing you can put on the hidden stage of Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea, is Tiara Rose, whose blessing you have. Levy said he would wait at the entrance and Tiara Rose went inside alone.


    "I''m glad I didn''t see Isira..."


    It''s a place facing Isira''s mansion, so there''s a good chance we''ll meet. This time Levi had a carriage ready just out of the royal castle, so that''s it.


    It was the first time I had passed the underground aisle of the royal castle, but it seemed hard to remember that it was made more intricately than Tiara Rose expected...... it was an honest feeling.


    - But I knew before Aqua told me.


    I''m sorry, but I''m honestly glad I found out.


    I was wondering if it was good, but well, I don''t want you to think about getting ready when something happens.


    "... Still, it''s cold in here"


    Because she is wearing a dress with shoulders out, the soothing air touches the skin of Tiara Rose.


    The concealed stage of the Fairy King, the first to be stepped on, was made like a submarine cave. Sure, it would be convincing if they told me the hidden sea path......


    Though limp and damp, the corals that grow on its walls emit pale light and replace the lights. While relieved that it wasn''t dark, slowly move on.


    On my own, being a villain''s warrant, maybe nothing will happen.


    - Well, let''s turn around then.


    It doesn''t mean I want a ring for everything, and Tiara Rose doesn''t know what effect the ring has.


    "Maybe what Isira will bless and be able to come..."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly as she thinks her hopes will be limitless.


    However, if Akali were in his position - he wouldn''t even care about Isira, he would dominate the fairy king''s hidden stage.


    "If I think about it, am I pretty modest?


    At a time when I am coming to the concealed stage of the Fairy King on my own, if I try to be Aquasteed, I am more of a modest princess, but unfortunately there is no penetrator here.


    I felt a lot lighter if I assumed I was modest compared to Akali. Exactly, I don''t want Aquasteed to think you''re a princess.


    "I wonder what a fairy ring looks like."


    So much so that there''s a ring in the game title that I think it must be beautiful.


    After walking for a while, all the walls that were like caves turned into corals. Surprisingly, between the bundles, the door appeared as if protected by its coral.


    Breathtaking that this would be the fairy king''s hidden stage.


    Shit, I think it''s kind of heterogeneous that I exist in this space with no sound, being a villain warrant lady. But I''m qualified to enter the hidden stage, so I put my hands on the door.


    The secluded doors were majestic with golden decorations. Make the feelings of Tiara Rose more elevated with the door where the fish are imitated, as it symbolizes the pearl.


    "... Pearl''s, Hidden Stage"


    I never thought I''d follow you in such a short period of time.


    Slowly opened the door - Tiara Rose stepped inside.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Over there......"


    Elliot had one head in the office where Aquasteed was taking his seat off.


    This aspect of excellence specializes in intelligence. I was going to be careful, but I realized that Tiara Rose was gone from her room - now I realize.


    "But there''s no sign in the castle? Could... have gotten out again?


    Elliot tilts her neck wondering if something is in that wife that she wants to get out of Aquasteed without permission. Tiara Rose is loved by the fairies in the woods, even if she wants to know about the fairies.


    Even if I don''t have to sneak out of it, the fairies come to see me every day.


    "Or do you have any other secrets?


    I don''t know what Tiara Rose is thinking.


    Tiara Rose has never been in there, although there are libraries and such where only royalty was allowed to enter. That would mean that Tiara Rose is getting information from another route......


    "Report to Mr. Aquasteed for now,"


    I know I''m definitely going to be grumpy, but if I don''t tell you, I won''t be talking about grumpy. Prepare the horses and be ready to leave the castle even soon.


    Of course, I won''t forget to cancel all the Aquasteed schedules I had planned after this.


    Oh, please stay safe. Elliot could only pray to Tiara Rose, who left him.

 52 7. The seriousness of the butler of the villain warrant lady

    It was the sea on land that spread out before the door was opened.


    To drown, Tiara Rose accidentally covered her mouth with her hands but no water. A fish with a flickering tail swims right next to him, tickling his cheeks.


    "Wow... sea, or fish swimming even though there''s no water"


    I tilt my neck wondering if I could swim in the air. And soon, I give an answer in myself that I can''t do that.


    - This is a special place for Pearl, the fairy king of the sea.


    Elsewhere, the fish did not swim in the sky. I never thought I could do this because I only saw fish swimming gracefully in sea water.


    Watching the poor swimming fish, Tiara Rose slowly looks around the room.


    The beautiful walls are the same beautiful white as the sand on the beach. By the way, shellfish are buried, reminiscent of the sandy beach. The lamps, which are attached at regular intervals, are made of coral and illuminate the light area lightly.


    Laying on ivory marble is a deep blue carpet. Carefully embroidered with golden yarn to entertain the tiara rose you are watching.


    And what lies ahead - is.


    "... there, there''s the Fairy King''s ring?


    Tiara Rose''s gaze was directed to the deepest part of the room.


    Just one pedestal, in this place of cancer. On a skinny table, a ring pillow with lace.


    - If you just want to see it, you''re okay, right?


    Slowly advancing his legs, Tiara Rose reached the front of the pedestal. The glittering ring is beautiful - and not enough to describe it in a nutshell.


    A thin, blue platinum with one pearl. A peek into it reveals that Kopo and the air are being created, something special and precious.


    "This is the ring¡­"


    Tiara Rose thinks she deserves the name Fairy King.


    The heroine who can get this - I''m so jealous of Isira. To so much beauty, I wonder if I could watch it for hours. Of course, if I did that, I''d be late to go home and Aquasteed would be busted out of the royal castle.


    "What happens when you wear this ring?


    "This is the first time Pearl''s cousin has come here."


    You don''t know how the ring works, are you here?


    "Huh...?


    Tiara Rose trembles frighteningly at the sound of her face.


    Because there shouldn''t have been anyone here but myself.


    I look around right away, but I don''t see people. An unpleasant sweat tells me where I am - haha. Only two fish are in this room, except for Tiara Rose.


    - Maybe the fish spoke the language?


    There''s a fairy, so it''s no surprise the fish are flying through the sky and talking. I''m sure.


    "My name is Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest"


    Tiara Rose takes a step back and thanks the two fish.


    "Marine Forest! Oh, could it be the king of this country, huh?


    "Master Pearl blessed you, so there''s no way you''re just a child."


    "Yes, no! I am not a king!!"


    Made a hell of a misunderstanding, Tiara Rose shakes her neck to the side in a hurry. You can''t be the king of this country. And when he told her that she was the queen of Aquasteed, the prince of the king, the fishes nodded so much.


    It makes the tail flicker and tells me, ''Neglected by recent information''.


    ''We''re not getting out of here, and we''re not getting any information. I don''t know anything about the last hundred years''


    "Were you..."


    Fish now asks me if I only know old Marine Forest.


    "I unfortunately don''t know the old Marine Forest, but I can tell you with my breasts outstretched that it is a very beautiful country. The people are calm and very peaceful."


    ''Oh, yeah, yeah. That''s not nice.''


    "I''m glad this is a beautiful country"


    A fish swimming with pleasure makes a strange look after a single delight.


    Then why did you come here?


    "Huh?"


    ''This is the room with the ring of Mr. Pearl. Tiara Rose, why did you ask for the ring and come here?


    "... Huh!


    I just came to see the voice of the serious fishes because I was worried about the fairy king''s hidden stage. Hehe, I just can''t say. There''s no way I can tell you.


    Now, no matter what, Tiara Rose smiles like trouble.


    "Oh, okay."


    "Yeah?"


    "Aren''t you going to kill the king now and be king yourself?


    "Oh, you know what?"


    "No!!"


    I don''t think about that by mistake, and I don''t want to. Tiara Rose tells me she was not interested in the king''s throne and wanted to know about this country and if she was looking into it, she would have gotten here.


    "You have been very good to me, who have been married from my neighbour. I never think about that¡­"


    Tiara Rose tells her desperately that she wants to support Aquasteed, who will eventually be king.


    "What''s so boring?"


    "You have an interesting soul, so I thought you''d do that."


    Tiara Rose sighs at the fishes laughing as they dull.


    I think you''d rather die if you were enough to kill someone, but I''m sure if you were the original villain warrant lady - that might have been different again.


    - But I don''t move as a villain''s warrant!


    "... interesting, soul?


    "Unlike normal people, it feels like something mixed up."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose thinks it would be about that because I''m sure I have memories of a previous life. Other than that, there''s nothing particularly unusual about it, so it wouldn''t be a good idea to ask too deeply.


    More importantly, Tiara Rose thought she was going to dig her own grave.


    "You seem to know. He said he was special. ''


    "Somewhat, but..."


    "Aren''t you going to say it,"


    To the words of the fish, Tiara Rose returns a smile instead of a reply.


    "Did You Say Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest"


    "Yes."


    "Ooh, take this ring. Yeah."


    A fishy tail slowly peers through the pearl of the ring.


    And to the words of the fish, Tiara Rose opens her eyes. I never thought they''d tell me I could take it with me, not heroin.


    Stand still and see the ring with the strange pearl.


    The slightly smaller size is probably a pinky ring. Seems like Pearl, a woman, Tiara Rose thinks.


    - What do I do, okay?


    Of course I care about the ring.


    But I don''t think I''m a good substitute for being a villain''s warrant lady. I think - if permission is to be granted, there is also a desire to try and get it on my own.


    Because Tiara Rose loves this maiden game. There''s no further reason, and I don''t want it.


    Fish prompt Tiara Rose, who doesn''t move while staring at the ring.


    "You deserve to be Pearl''s cousin."


    "... my credentials?


    Even though you''re a villain''s warrant?


    But I do become a qualified person at the time I am blessed by the Fairy King. If so, maybe there''s nothing wrong with Tiara Rose getting the ring.


    "Lady Pearl''s Ring......"


    Tiara Rose makes up her mind and gently reaches for the ring.


    When my fingertips touch me, I''m attacked by a sensation of rigor. I held my body tight as if the blood in my body had boiled.


    "... Ha, ha"


    - What a force, even though it''s not even fitted.


    Once again, Tiara Rose trembles at the magnitude of her being the King.


    Take the ring with both hands and Tiara Rose gently attaches it to her left pinky finger.


    I can see the heat spreading from the twitch and the ring and it circles all over my body. It''s like I''ve been replaced by this ring with my own body.


    "Hmm, I''m familiar with it."


    ¡­¡­


    ''Yes... is it a day or so for that ring to tame you?


    ''Oh, that would be about it. After a day, you mustn''t remove that ring''


    Tiara Rose is in a hurry to say such an important thing after wearing the ring. But then I just don''t have to take the ring off.


    In an attempt to reply to the acknowledgement, the door to which Tiara Rose had just entered opens with a bang.


    "Tiara!"


    "Huh!? Ah, ah, ah, ah, Master Aqua!! How did you get here!


    "That''s my dialogue"


    A breathless aquasteed stands in front of Tiara Rose.


    I got here based on Elliot''s intel. It was a passage that only those blessed by the Fairy King of the Sea could enter, but one Aquasteed came here with a flexible response to the opposing Elliot.


    "... What is this place? Or, Tiara, what about that ring?


    Hi-ha!


    Tiara Rose is sweaty to Aquasteed, who smiles. How could this place have fallen apart if it was supposed to have been through a hidden passage?


    Tell him that it is the ring of the Fairy King of the Sea, as he wraps his left hand around it.


    "Ooh, you''re the next king, eh?"


    "Fish...?


    "This is where only Pearl-like cousins can come. I''m not surprised you were both blessed. ''


    The fish tells her to laugh at the shards as she swims around Aquasteed.


    "Tiara Rose''s ring is a pearl-like ring. I''ll take care of it."


    ''There is nothing for us to talk about anymore. Go, cousins. "


    "Oh, thank you......!


    A little breeze blows, pushing Tiara Rose and Aquasteed''s back all the time telling them to get out of here fast. The tail of the fish flickers, and at the same time the door goes away.


    Deeply bowing his head, Tiara Rose thanked him for being able to come here.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    I came to the fairy king''s hidden stage, I was so excited, my heart popped - and on my way home, I''m so scared that I don''t know what to do anymore.


    Next to Tiara Rose, Aquasteed with a good smile.


    I smile but I''m sure I''m in a bad mood, but I don''t know how to fix my mood.


    It was Tiara Rose who made the promise and got out of the hidden passage of the royal castle so Levi could put her down.


    After a long silence, it was Aquasteed who broke it.


    "Tiara knew there was a Fairy King ring here?


    "... eh"


    The answer is yes.


    My royal family has information they can''t know, a neighboring maid...... how dare you. Now that you''re a queen, that''s not possible if you think about it normally.


    But Tiara Rose thinks it must be difficult to keep it hidden.


    "... Dear Acari, I have taught you"


    "To Miss Acari? How did she know that - oh, the power of holy prayer"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With Aquasteed conveniently interpreting, Tiara Rose decided to look forward without stopping to grin.


    The power of the holy prayer held by the heroine is immense, so much so that mere presence makes the country promise peace and abundance.


    "Sure, Tiara is close to Miss Acari. But if you need anything, you wanted me to tell you too."


    "I''m sorry, Master Aqua. ¡­ we will no longer take it personally"


    "That''s it. No matter how many hearts you have, it''s not going to be enough"


    Pull Tiara Rose''s shoulder all the way, and Aquasteed hugs her.


    He touches me to make sure Tiara Rose is safe, saying he was worried. Hair, cheeks, shoulders, back. Nodding his nose tip at the neck muscle, Aquasteed chuckles.


    "From Tiara, it smells like tide"


    When it''s kind of strange, I mouth it so well but gently.


    "Mmm...... Master Aqua also smells of tide. This place is full of Pearl''s power."


    "Right. I didn''t know there was a place like this. Come on, it''s the exit. There''s plenty to talk about when you get back to the castle, so be prepared to not sleep today."


    ".................. Yes"


    Tiara Rose just nodded at the black atmosphere of Aquasteed to see where the sweet atmosphere had gone some time ago.


    - Speaking of which, I wonder what happened to Levi.


    They were supposed to wait for me at the entrance, but it may not mean Aquasteed''s here. It''s possible they found him, but I didn''t think that butler would keep him that way.


    "Because Elliot is waiting at the entrance"


    "Yes."


    Aquasteed tells him to go home early, pointing to the entrance he saw. Tiara Rose snorted bitterly, too, and I apologize to Levi but I decide to keep going today.


    "I''d like Philine to brew some tea soon,"


    "Oh slow down -!?"


    As Aquasteed went outside pulling Tiara Rose''s hand, she saw Elliot falling. What the hell happened, Aquasteed looks around while sheltering Tiara Rose on her back.


    But there''s no one around. The sun began to fall around, a little dark. Aquasteed thinks it''s not hard to work at night, but it''s not a good idea to prolong it too long.


    "Dear Aqua!


    "It''s okay. Tiara doesn''t want to get out of behind me - heh!


    Moments, a heavy blow strikes Aquasteed.


    He grabbed the sword of love and took it by its sheath. My hands have been properly paralysed, but unfortunately the room that stands for it - is not.


    "It''s a better move than I thought"


    "Levi!?"


    Levi lands quietly as he is, bouncing through the universe with a recoil that puts a blow to Aquasteed. A man in a tight butler''s dress stands in front of him with an arc on his mouth.


    Staring at Levi, Aquasteed pulls out his sword. Fix the disturbed breath, check the opponent''s weapon, but nothing is held in its hand.


    - Magic?


    But there was no sign of that. I wonder if it''s even some kind of tease, Aquasteed thinks.


    "I''ll take it, it"


    "Aim - Tiara, huh?"


    There''s no way I''m gonna let you.


    Aquasteed kicks the ground and packs the distance from Levy at once. If the opponent does not have a weapon, he decided it would be a good idea to bring it into melee.


    I wave my sword, but Levy makes me try it without difficulty.


    - Fast.


    I could chase him with my eyes, but Aquasteed decides that his speed is more than his own. Then you just have to stop your leg with magic, trying to use magic - a sharp knife flies over with an aquasteed.


    "Heh... heh!


    "It doesn''t mean I don''t like melee."


    Levy says so, throwing one knife after another towards Aquasteed.


    "Where the hell are you, weapons..."


    Not with a sword, but with a face. You can hide so many knives in your butler''s clothes. An unpleasant sweat flows and Aquasteed desperately knocks off a flying knife.


    Don''t be ridiculous, I think so. Aquasteed unleashes magic. It''s not right for me to just fight unilaterally.


    The only thing I''m good at is a sword. He cleverly knives and magically attacks from here.


    A little, make a look like Levi''s going to suffer.


    "... what can we do about this"


    "I see you''re not just a prince being protected by an escort,"


    Levy looks troublesome and throws a new knife from his cuff toward Aquasteed. Aquasteed concludes that she doesn''t like how much more she''s planting, but she just has to say everything until she runs out.


    Focus your consciousness on unleashing powerful attack magic as you slap the knife down to the ground with your sword.


    That''s why I didn''t notice.


    That Levi was quietly approaching Aquasteed, trying to get confused by the knife.


    By the time I was happy, it was too late. Aquasteed nods and kneels on the spot with a gushing blow in his belly.


    "Well, and"


    Levi turns to Tiara Rose with a curl and drops that gaze to his left hand.


    Aim, fairy king''s ring.


    "Khaaaa."


    "... ugh, Tiara!


    Aquasteed''s voice echoes the cove.


    "Stop, Levi......! How could you do this?"


    "No, because I want to save Olivia."


    "... Huh?


    I look at Levi to stare at him, but when I hear the words he returns, I open my eyes haha.


    - A sequel villain''s warrant is involved in something?


    I''ve never met Olivia in person, but she''s a young lady in the same situation as a villain''s warrant. There''s no way Tiara Rose would care.


    "But then... can you talk to me about something? Something you might be able to help."


    So calm down, Tiara Rose talks to Levy - but the cold gaze just gets pointed.


    "I''ll help Olivia in the shortest possible time."


    I can''t afford to be with you.


    And I felt like they said so.


    At an unnoticed speed, Levi takes that ring away from Tiara Rose. But getting the ring doesn''t change Levi''s look.


    "How could..."


    Glimpsing Tiara Rose, Levi disappeared from the spot.

 53 8. Sleeping Villain Lady

    Ring of the Fairy King of the Sea, worn by Tiara Rose.


    As I''ve been putting it on for more than a day - yes, the fish told me. Yet Levi took it away from me thinking I might be on my side.


    Just because I know about the game made me want to believe it somewhere. Likewise, do you like maiden games...... I can''t believe it.


    Not at all, it was an out-of-count event for Tiara Rose.... to Aquasteed, of course.


    But more importantly, what was out of the math - is that Aquasteed has been hit by Levy? It''s not like he was killed or fatally wounded.


    But.


    I was kneeling on the ground, and they took away Tiara Rose''s ring. It''s an unparalleled humiliation, an unlikely sense of defeat.


    "Tiara, Tiara! Please, give me a reply!!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Aquasteed desperately calls Tiara Rose, but she fell asleep to take the ring and pass out. I don''t know why, I just have to get confused.


    Because Tiara Rose is the only one who knows that the Fairy King''s ring must not be removed.


    "Fuck."


    Out of Aquasteed''s mouth comes a rambling word, and he hits the ground at his leisure. Levi hit me. My belly is turning red and black, but that''s all.


    Of course there''s pain, but it''s not fatal. Over time, the pain will heal, and you can walk normally.


    - Why didn''t you stab me?


    I''ve noticed since the first blow I took that I''m not going to kill you. But I didn''t even stun him, I forced him to take Tiara Rose''s ring.


    Aquasteed thinks in confusion as to why he needed to do that.


    "... you were indeed the deacon of the Ariadel family"


    Thinking of the nobility of his own country, Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose. Now as soon as possible, I wanted to take Tiara Rose back to the castle.


    I''ll force Elliot to faint and tell him we''ll be back in the carriage soon.


    "... Dear Aquasteed! Dear Tiara Rose!? What the hell... what am I"


    "Sounds like you were being stunned. Don''t you remember?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    As he heads to the carriage, Aquasteed reports what happened to Elliot. Nodding at it, I remember while Elliot waited too.


    "He hit me in the back of the neck."


    "A blow.... I found out from your earlier interaction, but you''re excellent."


    Strike a hard spot to add or subtract and stun it with an exact blow.


    I wouldn''t be able to do it without experience, and I don''t think it just seems like a butler. The weapon I was using is probably what I would call a dark vessel.


    This is the first time I''ve actually met someone who deals with me.


    Where the hell were you hiding so many weapons, so much more than that? Just thinking, my spine seems to freeze.


    Get Tiara Rose in the carriage and sit beside it. Where Elliot sat face-to-face, he would send out a carriage for you.


    I never thought I was this far from the castle.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    A low voice echoes in a quiet bedroom.


    "What the hell is going on..."


    My doctor tells me it''s the first symptom I see. Make a pulse of Tiara Rose, magically check the flow of blood all over your body, etc. - but nowhere, no abnormalities can be seen.


    Yet Tiara Rose never looks to wake up.


    "Doctor, what about Tiara?


    "His Highness Aquasteed...... There is nothing else in life, but there is no precedent for this."


    ".................. tiara"


    Kneeling beside the bed, Aquasteed holds Tiara Rose''s sleeping hand. My eyes, staring at me to pray for me to wake up soon, shake anxiously.


    As he sees how it goes, the doctor slowly takes his seat off. We need to find out if there have been any of these cases in the past.


    Elliot, who had refrained outside, told me to call him if anything - but I don''t know if Aquasteed got that voice.


    - What prevents Tiara from waking up, the ring?


    Pinky Ring, who was told it was the ring of the Fairy King of the Sea, is now disappearing. I realize now that Levi''s aim was the Fairy King''s ring.


    "You weren''t after Tiara herself..."


    Aquasteed doesn''t know how to use the ring. I don''t know if Levy knows, but I wonder if the Duke''s family knows what the royal family doesn''t.


    In the last few days, it''s been a small and evil thing to be full of things you don''t know.


    "Tiara, wake up quickly"


    Adorable blue eyes, tightly closed.


    I want you to call me "Aqua" as usual soon, let me hear your voice, and look at yourself with those eyes. I hope so, Tiara Rose won''t wake up.


    Holding Tiara Rose''s hand for a long time, keeping the status quo in mind - and realizing it, Aquasteed was revealing the night.


    - It''s the Fairy King''s ring, so would you like to get some information from Crail?


    With that in mind, Aquasteed fingers the hair on Tiara Rose''s forehead. Mouth it on its forehead like it loves you and feel its warmth on your skin.


    "Tiara......"


    I can''t help you, what''s my husband...... and Aquasteed thinks to despise herself. I told him I''d protect him from the usual, but he said I couldn''t protect him at the heart of it and what am I going to do?


    "I want to be stronger. How can I be stronger than this?


    Workouts are indispensable, and swords and magic are good arms. Because other countries have gone around because of studying abroad, there is also the thought that they are familiar with various technologies.


    - Not yet, not enough effort.


    Its strength, which is too much from around, also makes no sense at all just because it cannot protect Tiara Rose.


    Again, I whine tiny with Tiara in my mouth.


    Let''s do what we can to help.


    "I''ll be sure to help you, just wait a little longer... Tiara"


    Gently stroke your cheeks and gently overlap your own it on your colored lips. Even without consciousness, Tiara Rose''s lips are sweet...... and that depends on the back of her brain.


    Releasing her lips to remnants, Aquasteed left the bedroom.


    "Dear Aquasteed!


    "Elliot. How''s the defense?


    "To the house of the Duke of Ariadel, I put out a fortune. ¡­ but the butler has been disappearing for a few days"


    I wonder if it will pierce the style of having nothing to do with the Duke''s family, Aquasteed thinks. That way, even if Levy moved and snagged a lot like this one, he wouldn''t have to do as much damage.


    But Elliot continues his words with a twinkle of an eyebrow.


    "It''s just that the butler - the day before Levi disappeared, I got word that the courtier he was serving had disappeared."


    "What? Well, was the man''s husband Olivia Ariadel"


    I''ve never met him in person, but I''ve seen him at night clubs.


    I had the impression that it was quiet and lovely, but I don''t think there was anything else worth highlighting. Therefore, there is not much Olivia data in Aquasteed''s memory either.


    - The missing lady and the butler who''s gone after it?


    Aquasteed arcs at his mouth, thinking it might be relevant, but then it''s his territory.


    Bless Aquasteed "Empty" specializes in information. More than the forest, more than the sea, information blends into the air. From the rumors of the people, to the deal behind them - there''s no sound that can''t reach the sky.


    "Talk to the sky fairy, and then tell Claire - hmm?


    "Master Aquasteed?


    The moment I try to call the wind, the desperate running footsteps enter Aquasteed''s ear. It soon became apparent that an emergency must have occurred because the royal castle should not run in principle.


    The sound is straight this way, definitely about Tiara Rose or Levy.


    "Elliot, open the door and let him in."


    "Okay."


    Hearing the sound of a knock that immediately sounded, Elliot passes the knight into the room who has been running as he sweats.


    On his knees, he offered Aquasteed a single letter shortly after he breathed.


    "... What''s this? The Ariadel family crest, or"


    "Is it from the butler?... This is a size one turn smaller than what the owner deals with. They think it belongs to Miss Olivia."


    "I guess."


    Open the seal to tear away, and Aquasteed glances at the letter inside. There were beautiful, flowing letters spelled out there.


    ¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D


    Demands the liberation of Olivia in prison as a condition of returning the ring of the Fairy King of the Sea.


    ¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D¨D


    Finally, find the name Levi. From the content, Aquasteed is convinced that there will be no mistake in what that butler wrote.


    Although...


    "What is the liberation of Miss Olivia in prison?"


    That''s not true.


    Sure, there''s a barn in the royal castle, but no one''s being held in it now. I told the fairy in the sky to look into it just in case, but there''s still no sign of people being let in before I know it.


    "I wonder what that means," said Elliot, glancing at the letter.


    Elliot goes on to list the places where the prison is, thinking about it.


    "In the basement of the royal castle, there are knights in the castle, knighthood stuffs in the city, and certainly small ones in the church. And then if you''re in a house of senior aristocrats, you should have a cell or a private soldier just in case. The worst is the bandits, but that butler can help himself if he''s about the same age."


    "Right...... Fairy in the sky, blend into the wind and give me information about the prison in this country."


    Tell the fairy in the sky where Elliot gave it, and see if Olivia has been captured.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Quietly closing his eyes, Aquasteed receives information from an empty fairy. But there is no one among those captured who thinks of Olivia.


    What do you mean, put your finger on your chin and think.


    "You''re not here. But prison is not what it is."


    "No way, another country? Then I can snort a deal with Mr. Aquasteed."


    "... no"


    Would such a powerful butler hold such a deal on himself just because of another country? Without that, Aquasteed can assure you.


    If you were that butler, it would be easy to sneak in. Of course, there will be a problem, but there must be a reason for them to be annoyed at the time Olivia is taken. It is unlikely that it will develop into a problem as a country.


    If you narrow it down with the erasure method, you get to just one possibility.


    - Where I let you in and the butler can''t.


    That is to say, places like those earlier will be involved. If that''s the case, I can also nod that Levy held up a deal.


    - I didn''t think blessings would help with these things.


    "Immediately, get a confirmation from Crail"


    "Yes."


    Aquasteed put his sleeve through his new shirt and finished dressing and left the room behind.

 54 9. Empty Rings

    "Crail!"


    "... Aquasteed, long time no see"


    As Aquasteed steps into Crail''s realm roughing up his voice, he is greeted with a tickle of laughter. Aquasteed sighs, perceiving that he grasps a lot.


    The realm of the crail, the temple of the sky.


    Keith''s Royal Castle is in the woods, and Pearl''s Palace is under the sea. The temple of Claire rises above the sky, as the words say. Even if you knew how to get there, you can''t go to a normal person.


    Only Aquasteed, blessed by Claire, the fairy king of the sky, is now possible to go.


    "Oh, my God."


    "If that''s what you think, you can come."


    Hit and change from what you''ve ever dressed as a woman, short hair on a low voice. "I don''t like it," said the king, wearing clothes for men, grinning cold.


    Hear the hair gradient from blue to white and close the book you were reading.


    "I''ve been waiting here, you can praise me enough"


    "... thank you"


    Sighing in his heart, Claire tells Aquasteed to praise him for being in his temple.


    It''s not a gentle tone like when you were dressed as a woman, it''s like some cold air somewhere. I don''t know what Aquasteed would have done with his original personality and a long way off life.


    Usually, I''m in the palace of Pearl, the fairy king of the sea. Claire has been doing that ever since Pearl talked about sleeping. Given that I rarely leave Pearl''s Palace, I do have to snort.


    "There are two main pieces of information I want. About the cause of Tiara not waking up from sleep and the prison where Olivia seems to be."


    "Tiara Rose doesn''t wake up because she forced the ring off. That''ll take time until you get used to it."


    "I knew it was a ring..."


    Hear Claire''s words and hold her fist all the time.


    I regret myself that this would not have happened if I had been stronger. Seeing such aquasteeds, Claire tells him, "It was just a bad minute".


    "Sure, that butler...... Levi seems strong though. Aquasteed is stronger if we meet each other in bees"


    "If you win with it, it doesn''t make sense"


    "Well, it makes sense"


    Chuckles and laughs, Claire continues her words.


    "We fairy kings each have our own ring. Have power and bring blessings to what you own."


    "Fairy King''s Ring, or..."


    The ring of the Fairy King of the Woods promises the abundance of his own country.


    The Fairy King''s ring in the sky can use the vibrations of the air to sound far away.


    The ring of the Fairy King of the Sea deactivates any poison, if liquid.


    Everyone wants it, and they still don''t have anything in their hands. - Claire laughs.


    "The ring of the Fairy King of the Sea would have been worn by Tiara, wouldn''t it?


    Isn''t it wrong that no one has ever had it? I thought so, but Claire keeps quietly saying, "No, I''m not."


    "I need a little time for the ring to get used to my body. So Tiara Rose is not yet the owner of the ring, hence the unconsciousness"


    "I see."


    Indeed, it is a ring with such great power that it is in the hands of men. No wonder that happened.


    "Just..."


    "I don''t see why Tiara Rose and Levi knew that place"


    There''s so much unexpected about this happening.


    Should I have kept an eye on Tiara Rose from time to time? And Claire says in a joking voice. Of course, though I would never do it to touch the reverse scale of Aquasteed if I did that.


    In the meantime, I settled on the conclusion that it would be best to get the ring back now.


    "And then, jail..."


    "He didn''t seem to be in a prison in this country. It''s also unlikely that it''s another country. You know where humans can''t step in?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Claire puts her finger on her mouth and thinks, "Hmm."


    A prison without human knowledge. If I''m only going to say the conclusion first - I do. But that''s a place we haven''t really disclosed to humans, and it was a long time ago that Claire herself went last.


    So it''s impossible - and I just want to get back to you.


    "What happens around Tiara Rose when it''s not obvious?"


    "What, all of a sudden"


    "No? Tiara Rose is strange. First of all, I''m just saying Keith blessed you, not a regular courtesan. That''s Aquasteed, you understand?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The only thing in this country that is blessed by the forest fairies is Tiara Rose.


    That''s all I''m surprised about, but I even captivated the Fairy King of the Woods. What if it''s not an anomaly?


    "Wind, tell me what''s happening to the prison on the board."


    Claire''s voice calls the wind, and the words interrupt along the way. Claire, who had always been faceless, frowned just a little.


    - Hit, huh?


    As far as the reaction goes, it must have been bingo. One problem solved for now, so let''s do it.


    "There you are?


    "... oh. But how did you get in there? Only the three of us, the king, should know how to get to that place."


    "Is it possible that another fairy king was telling someone?


    "Impossible"


    To Aquasteed''s inquiry, Claire denies it without interruption.


    "That prison is not such an easy place. It works like capturing a fairy king won''t get you out of jail."


    "The king?


    "... for now, shall we go? Olivia Ariadel seems a lot weaker."


    I wondered what the prison on the board was like, but I would interpret it as a topic that should not be touched upon by looking at the subtle through crail.


    I''m more concerned about Miss Olivia''s capacity now than that.


    - Can''t help but make the butler desperate, huh?


    Though I still won''t allow Tiara Rose to be in danger''s eye.


    "In the meantime, let''s go to prison.... Oh, and get this to Aquasteed"


    "Hmm?"


    Throw something small over here as Claire arcs.


    Aquasteed, who received it with both hands, looks wide open and surprises.


    What Claire gave me was a clear, empty ring. It was wide and quickly found out that it was something that dragged the opal into the shape of a ring.


    No, more than that, more than anything...


    "Crail, this..."


    "Of the Fairy King in the Sky, Ring"


    "How could you do that to me?


    Given Claire''s mouthfeel earlier, it shouldn''t be the same thing as giving it away. Wrong, it''s not a substitute to throw and give away.


    "Tiara Rose got the pearl ring, and I just thought Aquasteed could have the ring too"


    "... thank you"


    Put the received ring on the thumb of your right hand.


    I am attacked by a sense of squiggliness and hold my arms to hold my body back. To Claire, to Pearl, even greater than when we received the blessing - power.


    I never thought it would be awesome so far, I think with a sweat on my forehead.


    - Sure, it''s not a good idea if you remove this before it tames your body.


    Aquasteed breathes that Tiara Rose had just fallen asleep, possibly lucky to be unhappy.


    Come on, let''s go.


    "Oh!"


    Aquasteed took Crail''s hand and the two moved in the wind.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Prison on the board.


    That''s where the kings used to take their positions. Now there is no longer a need to exist, so much so that the Fairy King is even forgetting it.


    Yet there was a sequel villain''s warrant - Olivia Ariadel standing in Rin.


    "I''m surprised there are people who can get into this place."


    "Is that Miss Olivia?"


    The prison, which is a sphere, is conveyed by terribly cold water in the lattice of the cage. Floating in the air, at least pitiful... one plant in prison had fruit fruit.


    "... who?


    Olivia, who was turning back, looks back towards Aquasteed and Claire.


    Rose red hair, which would normally be lustrous, has lost its radiance. Honey Green''s eyes peeking through her edgy glasses don''t feel the energy to live without power - there never was.


    "... Huh!


    !?


    Olivia''s eyes, which weren''t strange when she closed them, opened wide open. And instantly I held my mouth down with my hands and nodded on the spot.


    Aquasteed speaks up as he leans his neck against that inexplicable behavior.


    "... I''m Aquasteed Marine Forest. Miss Olivia, is there a mistake?


    "Yes¡­ I am Olivia Ariadel"


    "Why are you here? - What, blood?


    "- Huh!!"


    Pompous, blood dripped out of Olivia''s hand.


    Aquasteed rushes right under Claire and Olivia, thinking she wasn''t supposed to be hurt or anything.


    Olivia takes out the handkerchief and wipes the blood a little faster than she tries to ask if she''s okay.


    "I''m sorry, I showed you something ugly. It''s all right now, Your Highness Aquasteed, Your Highness Claire."


    "Oh well..."


    Olivia thanks Aquasteed and Claire as she holds her nose down with a handkerchief. He didn''t seem to be able to do what he thought because he was in jail, but he hasn''t lost his grace.


    and more than that.


    - Nose bleeding, was it?


    "If you''re okay, that''s fine"


    Aquasteed concludes, seeing as how excited Olivia is, maybe she shouldn''t touch much because she herself tells her she''s okay.


    Claire, who was behind Aquasteed, walks to the front of the prison and stares at Olivia.


    "Olivia Ariadel. How do you know my name?


    There''s no way a man knows the fairy king''s name. Olivia shook her shoulders in a staring look at Claire.


    "Wow, me..."


    "What?"


    "I can''t believe I called His Highness Claire by name... Huh!


    You could be happy and dead! and whine as Olivia presses her nose again. Unexpectedly pulling her cheeks, Claire takes a step back.


    "Aquasteed, this kid, he''s weird"


    "... oh"


    "I don''t think I can talk calmly, so I''ll leave it to Levy."


    As Claire rattled her pussy and fingers, the wind gathered to transfer Levy.


    Even though it was sudden, Levy immediately looked around and grasped the status quo - running under Olivia.


    But there''s no way Aquasteed would let that happen.


    Pull out the sword and point it at Levi''s neck. If you move even one step as you go, cut it immediately, and the cold aquasteed eyes stare at Levy.


    "This is, Your Highness, Aquasteed"


    "You can afford a lot under the circumstances, can''t you?


    "No, sir."


    Levi smiles and gives the answer, but that gaze doesn''t capture Aquasteed. He stays staring at Olivia, who was put in jail.


    The desire to see you soon comes through with a hint.


    However, such emotions have nothing to do with Aquasteed. The sword tip that was touching Levi''s throat bled with blood.


    - Come on, give me the ring.


    Such a voice, like a scratch.


    Aquasteed himself laughs with surprise at how much emotion he turns to people.


    If you don''t give me the ring, I''ll cut it off like this. To Aquasteed, who is so murderous, Levy says, "Of course," raising his hands to show his intention to surrender.


    Receive the ring that was in Levy''s inner pocket and hand Aquasteed straight to Claire.


    Whether this ring is real or not - because I decided it was best to have Claire, the same king, check it out.


    "... it''s real."


    "Right."


    Aquasteed breathes and releases Levy. If it''s true, I won''t forgive you, but if we keep dealing with each other, we''ll be late going back under Tiara Rose.


    I suppress so much urge to kill you with reason that I return my sword to my sheath.


    Levy runs quickly, making noises with Kashan and touching the prison vigorously.


    Make sure you tangle your fingers in the lattice and call Olivia''s name in prison.


    "Olivia......! Great, you''re safe...!!"


    "Levi! Me, me...!


    Olivia and Levy touched their fingers over the lattice and wept at the joy of seeing them - they didn''t.


    "I have met His Royal Highness Aquasteed and His Highness Claire! I''m so happy, I''m dying..."


    "When Olivia is happy, so am I."


    "Mistakes are no longer allowed out of prison during the pilgrimage to the Lapis Sanctuary, but this is what it''s all about...! That Levi''s hands are too cold!


    The two fingertips that were in contact were relentlessly removed from Olivia.


    Levi''s fingertips aren''t as cold as ice because of the running water. If you keep it that way for a while, you''ll be paralyzed and out of use.


    I hurried to get something good so Olivia would let go, but it was a momentum that seemed to stick to the lattice all the time if I didn''t give directions. No, I would definitely have stuck around.


    "Hey, Aquasteed"


    "What?"


    "I don''t know what you mean, I don''t know"


    "That''s odd, I just thought I wasn''t sure either"


    Olivia Ariadel, the villain''s warrant for the sequel game.


    My hobby is pilgrimage to the sanctuary of the event spot.

 55 10. Loved by the King and Awakened by the Princess

    "Pearl Ring......"


    "Claire, give it back to me because I''m gonna put it on Tiara."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed bedroom.


    I received the Fairy King of the Sea ring from Levy and came back in a hurry - it''s terribly hard for Claire to stare at the ring.


    "I''m home," he says, making sure the sleeping Tiara Rose is no different.


    Claire asked me to make sure that the ring Levi brought was real.


    Of course, you can feel mighty magic the moment you touch it. But you can''t just decide it''s real. It is possible that the mortal detached butler is doing something.


    "... I can''t believe Pearl''s ring is in this hand, but I have to give it to him"


    Shabu-shabu, but Crail handing the ring to Aquasteed properly.


    "Fine, you''re always in the real Pearl''s Palace."


    "Say it, Aquasteed"


    "I can''t afford it."


    I want Tiara Rose to put on the ring as soon as possible and wake her out of her sleep. I''m wasting my time chatting with Claire, and I''m in a hurry if I don''t hurry.


    - Really, Aquasteed likes Tiara Rose.


    Claire chuckles when she sees Aquasteed she can''t afford.


    Aquasteed who receives the ring and takes Tiara Rose''s hand immediately. The figure is healthy and I find it loving as the object of my blessing.


    On Aquasteed''s finger, Claire''s ring.


    Tiara Rose fingers, pearl rings.


    What the two compassionate lovers hold together, even if it was a pearl ring - gives Crail something comfortable somewhere.


    On the ring, they overlap each other.


    I wish we could be compassionate, like the two of us with rings ourselves.


    Smiling lonely, Claire stared at the two of them.


    "Tiara... wake up early and show me your usual smile"


    "... mmm"


    With a beautiful pearled ring, Aquasteed gently attaches it to Tiara Rose''s left pinky finger. Please wake up and stare at Tiara Rose as she prays.


    Mouth the warm Tiara Rose fingertips and just wait for your eyes to open. Just look at the slightly trembling lashes, breathtaking.


    "Tiara, Tiara Rose......"


    Hold hands tight and call names again and again.


    Answer me quickly.


    As usual, call me Aqua.


    Then I''ll call you Tiara back.


    "... n"


    "Tiarah!!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Beautiful blue eyes appear in Aquasteed''s eyes.


    Oh, good. I was relieved too. Between the bundles, Tiara Rose quickly closed those eyes. There''s no sign of waking up with a regular sleep, even if you hang around a little bit.


    "Tiara......?


    Aquasteed touches Tiara Rose''s cheek and calls - her eyes are very closed.


    "I put on the ring, why..."


    ''Cause I''m not familiar with it.


    "Huh? Oh, did you need a day to tame the ring"


    Claire answers Aquasteed''s query.


    I can''t believe you want Tiara Rose to wake up soon, but you have to wait a day... and bite your lips off.


    "If I were stronger, I''d be glad"


    "Aquasteed is strong enough. You can sleep and wait until Tiara Rose wakes up. You won''t be aware, but Aquasteed''s body is tired enough, and you should rest."


    That''s faster, the ring gets acquainted with the body. If that''s what they say, Aquasteed has to snort too.


    "... ok"


    Claire hits Pong and Aquasteed on the back, prompting him to rest.


    He nodded immediately, taking Tiara Rose''s hand and Aquasteed fell asleep.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    From a calm sleep, where the waves of the sea flutter - Tiara Rose wakes up.


    Because I slept too much, or my body was stiff and I couldn''t move well.


    If you blink your eyes a few times, you''ll see the lid part of the bed. Beautifully decorated and wondering if my bed would have been so luxurious...... such a question abounds.


    - In the meantime, I need to wake up.


    I only wanted water because I was thirsty.


    I thought so. When I tried to wake up my body, a sweet, gentle, and terribly worrying voice - reached Tiara Rose''s ear.


    "Oh good...... tiara. Does your body hurt or suffer anywhere?


    ¡­¡­ Uh, yes. I''m a little thirsty... "


    "I''ll get you some water right away"


    I''m told to stay asleep.


    Blink with the pussy, Tiara Rose sees the man preparing the water splash. I know who you are and who you are if they ask you that.


    Aquasteed Marine Forest.


    It''s the main offensive object of the sequel game, my favorite character. Someone who may know each other because they were coming to school, but should have had no contact whatsoever.


    - Why is His Highness Aquasteed here?


    Plus, you look like you''re taking care of yourself.


    "... where are we?


    If you look around the room with your gaze, you''ll see that it''s more splendid than your own. And since there are many used coral decorations, I think it''s in the room of someone related to Marine Forest.


    I mean, would it be Aquasteed''s own room?


    - No, it won''t.


    "Tiara, it''s water. Can you drink?"


    "Uh... yes"


    "Just take your time."


    "... Oh, thank you"


    With his hands on Tiara Rose''s back trying to get up, Aquasteed gives him water in the glass. I think I need to tremble and drop it, and with my hands, Tiara Rose smiles.


    - Tiara?


    I am drinking the water I received but notice something wrong with Tiara Rose. I''ve been asleep all my life, so I thought my body hurt, but something''s different.


    - Disappointed because I couldn''t protect you?


    "Tiara......"


    I get anxious that they will hate me, and I call the name of Tiara Rose. My voice is plundering, and I laugh at myself for being terribly unstable.


    In response to the voice I called, Tiara Rose''s body swayed with horror.


    Oh, not the usual Tiara Rose.


    "I couldn''t protect it, so I put Tiara in danger''s eye.... I''m really sorry about that, and I can''t help but regret it"


    "... ah"


    "Sorry, Tiara. - I can''t protect you, I don''t deserve to like Tiara...?


    Tiara Rose with her eyes wide open, like a decent one.


    I can''t help but like it, and the emotion of being loving is overflowing, trapping Tiara Rose in my arms like a hug.


    I didn''t even hate the glass being thrown out and the sheets getting wet, and buried my face in that neck muscle.


    Please, give me a hug back.


    That''s what I hoped for, definitely Aquasteed''s greed.


    "Um, uh, I..."


    The trembling Tiara Rose voice reaches Aquasteed''s ear.


    But the word that went on was something Aquasteed didn''t expect at all.


    "Why is His Highness Aquasteed here?


    "... Huh?


    "Of course, I know about His Highness Aquasteed. But I don''t think we had any contact..."


    Look at Tiara Rose lowering her eyebrows like she''s in trouble and she says she''s such an idiot...... Aquasteed opens her eyes. Because this is like...


    "Tiara, what about me... you know?


    "Of course it is. The classes at the school were the same..."


    No one knows His Highness Aquasteed, Tiara Rose smiles. At the same time, I am told that I want you to let me go because I am ashamed.


    "Oh, oh..."


    "Me, my memory is a little fuzzy. Why are you here?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - Is my memory gone?


    Still, I''m relieved that you remember me.


    "This is Marine Forest, Tiara."


    "Huh? Oh, I was. I came to Marine Forest - but why did you come to Marine Forest...?


    Tiara Rose tilting her neck really hard.


    I thought you''d lost your memory the last year or so, but apparently you haven''t.


    Aquasteed tries to calm the confused Tiara Rose, stroking her back. - but quickly get out of my way after shaking my body all the time.


    My memories of being engaged to myself and getting married are falling apart.


    "I''m sorry," says Tiara Rose, blushing. There can''t be one where she has to apologize for something.


    And anxiously, Tiara asks if there is a filine of the samurai.


    "Oh, right. I''ll call you soon, so just stay a little more asleep."


    "Thank you, Your Highness Aquasteed"


    - Me, what''s wrong?


    Tiara Rose grovels back to bed as she watches Aquasteed leave. It stays dressed at night, and I think about getting dressed and relaxing my body with a light stretch after Filine comes.


    Immediately Philine opened the bedroom door and came running.


    "Dear Tiara Rose!!"


    "Filine."


    "Good, you''re safe...! Is there anything inconvenient about it?


    Seeing Filine worried in tears, I perceive myself in a more serious state than I think. Measure the heat and have Tiara Rose''s body carefully massaged.


    "Philine, I..."


    "It''s okay, Dear Tiara Rose. Now for now, take a rest."


    "... but there was His Royal Highness Aquasteed? I can''t believe you''re resting..."


    Isn''t it disrespectful to leave Aquasteed, Prince Wang, asleep..., Tiara Rose tells Philine.


    "It''s not disrespectful. Your Highness Aquasteed is very worried about Master Tiara Rose, and we have your word that first of all we should get fit¡­"


    "His Highness Aquasteed...? Why do you care so much about me?"


    Has it caused any trouble?


    I can''t help but wonder, if Aquasteed told me to sleep, now would be a good time to do so.


    - Later, I need to thank you properly.


    Filine smiles and tells her to stay asleep all day today.


    Tiara Rose replies reluctantly, acknowledging that she is not sleepy. When I at least told him I wanted to read a book or something, the samurai who could did so gave me pleasure.


    "You can also make tea. Then, the sweets... let''s settle down a little later. I''m getting a body friendly dish ready now."


    "Thanks"


    "Then, if you need anything, talk to me straight away"


    "Yes."


    Philine strongly says don''t ask the other maids and be sure to call yourself.


    First of all, the status quo, and things to come. Again, I settled in to talk after tomorrow.


    "We have a doctor before we eat. And then I''ll bring you a book."


    "Okay."


    Tell him to rest a while until then, and Filine leaves the bedroom behind.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    As soon as Filine got out of her bedroom, Aquasteed stuffed her to see how Tiara Rose was doing.


    "Physical condition, etc... seemed fine. But I still don''t seem to remember spending time with His Highness Aquasteed."


    "... right"


    Grabbing his fist all the time, Filine stares at Aquasteed.


    What happens to my own husband who doesn''t remember him after this?


    It''s all drowning, so they won''t make it bad.


    But.


    What if Aquasteed didn''t recognize the Tiara Rose I don''t remember as the Tiara Rose I loved?


    What if they tell me to go home to Lapis Lazuli and cure him... I want Tiara Rose, who was laughing happily, to stay here, even if she doesn''t remember.


    "Your Highness Aquasteed, what about Master Tiara Rose... eh"


    With anxiety, Filine asked Aquasteed.


    I guess my anxiety has been conveyed, smiling gently and saying Aquasteed is "okay".


    "I love Tiara more than once, and I''m confident she''ll love me more than once"


    So nothing to worry about, Aquasteed looked to the bedroom door.

 56 11. Lost Memories

    In a large bedroom, wake up for a good night''s rest.


    As soon as I woke up, I missed somewhere - Tiara Rose thinks.


    "I sleep alone, even though it''s the usual"


    I wonder why, and conclude that I may have felt that way because it''s too broad. I stretched my back wide and stretched slowly before leaving the bed.


    Philine tells me there''s nothing planned for today.


    She smiled to make it slow and amazing all day. But I wanted to say something. Tiara Rose is also aware that her current situation is strange.


    - I wish I knew what that was.


    Especially, Aquasteed.


    I didn''t know why he was with me. Of course I''m glad you''re close because you were my favorite character, and I''d like to talk more about it.


    But the way Aquasteed looks - it''s like that.


    "It''s like..."


    Holding hands all the time to endure the occasional.


    I felt my cheeks turn red, and I don''t know what to do - Concon and the sound of a knock echoing in the room. Hearing Philine''s voice continue, Tiara Rose stops thinking.


    Encouraging you to enter the room, you look like Philine with tea.


    "Good morning, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Morning, Filine"


    Drink tea and breathe while Filine prepares the dress.


    They told me to slow down, but I have a job to do. Isira and I need to talk soon about managing the ocean.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Memories of the work I''ve been involved with, etc. were solid.


    That means this is Marine Forest, and I also recall with great applause that it is a royal castle.


    "Filine."


    "Yes?"


    "Is Isira planning to climb the castle today?


    If there is, Tiara Rose tells me she wants some time.


    "I think Isira will be climbing the castle.... or, Dear Tiara Rose, do you remember?


    "Huh?"


    Tiara Rose laughs at the breathtaking voice of Filine.


    "Yesterday, I think I was getting a little confused. I''m all right now."


    "Oh good...... good!


    "I''m sorry I bothered you"


    "No, that''s not what Dear Tiara Rose cares about. Please wait while I call His Highness Aquasteed at once!


    - Your Highness Aquasteed?


    Shortly after Tiara Rose stopped, Filine left the room in a hurry to roll. It''s unusual for her to worry about always being graceful, and I''m in a hurry to see if I have to call Aquasteed by so long.


    "I shouldn''t have known you at all, but what shall I tell you..."


    Don''t be rude because they are His Royal Highness the King of Marine Forest. In the meantime, get out of bed and put your sleeves through the dress that Filine had prepared.


    I don''t have plans, so I''m relieved it wasn''t so decorative that I couldn''t wear it alone. I had a little difficulty with the back zipper but was able to wear it without any problems.


    "Your Highness, Aquasteed... You don''t really know what character you''re playing because you''re dead before you play the game."


    When we were together at school, a calm honor student who kept grinning. Yes, that''s exactly what royalty is all about.


    "... Tiara!


    "Huh!?"


    When I thought about leaving my bedroom for now and waiting, the momentum opened the door and Aquasteed came in. Tearful eyes reflect Tiara Rose.


    "Ah......"


    I can hug Aquasteed a lot harder as he rushes over.


    The smell of fluffy, fragrant aqua steed is superficial. A slender but rough arm touches Tiara Rose to handle the treasure.


    Why not?


    Yes, I wanted to put it into words, but I couldn''t.


    "Tiara......"


    "... eh"


    Aquasteed''s lips gently blocked Tiara Rose''s.


    Touch it gently, and leave immediately - again. Tiara Rose becomes immobile in her eyes staring at a loving being. I have no aversion at all, even though I was spoken of as I was.


    A voice calling his name, whose exhalation touches Tiara Rose''s lips.


    The heart that pulses like a bounce, it''s out of control. Press Aquasteed''s chest with your hands and leave.


    "Ah... Ah, Your Highness Aquasteed"


    ¡­¡­


    Hold down the touched lips, Tiara Rose calls Aquasteed''s name.


    Not the usual Dear Aqua, Aquasteed - with Your Highness.


    "Tiara, my memory is back..."


    "Huh? Memory, is it?


    Asked that by a surprised aquasteed, Tiara Rose tilts her neck.


    I do have a vague memory, but I also understand that I am in Marine Forest now, and that I work in this country.


    It''s just - I''m just not realizing for myself that Aquasteed''s memory is the only thing that doesn''t soothe me.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Uh, Your Highness Aquasteed?


    "... Aqua, can you call me?


    Reddish your face and smile gently at the confused Tiara Rose.


    Understand that you''re apparently not returning only to your memory, and regret only a little what you said earlier.


    I''m worried they wouldn''t have hated me. But as far as Tiara Rose''s reaction goes, I don''t feel anything like disgust.


    - Can I be proud of you?


    When he told me he wanted me to call him by his nickname, Tiara Rose breathed. I can see that my gaze is swimming, but I look happy.


    Even if I don''t have my own memory, I think it''s the same as Tiara Rose ever did.


    "So let me call you Tiara, too?


    "Ah-ha, yes. Ah, Dear Aqua..."


    "Yeah."


    Dropping her gaze, Tiara Rose called her name as she looked embarrassed.


    Cute, driven by the urge to hug - but long, endured. Explain your relationship with Tiara Rose first.


    "Tiara. What I''m about to say is maybe incredible. But I want you to listen."


    ".................. Are you referring to me and Master Aqua?


    Show me the bare gesture of thinking and Tiara Rose slowly opens her mouth. Affirming it returns serious eyes. I knew immediately that I was concerned.


    "Shall we talk about me and Tiara..."


    Tea and fruit were provided at the table, and Aquasteed slowly started talking about the two of them -.


    "Lies, me and Master Aqua are a couple..."


    "Yes, Tiara is my loved one"


    Aquasteed apologizes to Tiara Rose if she''s sorry she spoken to herself earlier.


    "No...... There''s nothing wrong with Aqua."


    "Tiara, please don''t just force me. If you don''t want to be touched, tell them honestly."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Aquasteed smiles because Tiara Rose does nothing to scare her.


    - I don''t want to be touched, I don''t know.


    Tiara Rose was surprised at herself for not thinking so. I used to feel so uncomfortable when Halt Knights was about to stroke my head.


    - You really, really care about me.


    I didn''t even think about that, although it was not a strange time for a political marriage.


    Although I don''t remember being with him, Tiara Rose thinks he occasionally goes to Aquasteed and wants to know a lot more.


    "I don''t feel bad about Aqua."


    "... thanks"


    So tell him to rest assured. Smiling, Aquasteed''s hand is stretched out on his cheek - touching.


    I don''t think so. I''m comfortable. And I close my eyes unexpectedly. Soon Aquasteed laughs bitterly, "Don''t be too distracted because you won''t stop"... and Tiara Rose laughs unexpectedly.


    As they laughed, they heard Elliot along with the sound of a knock - the door opened as it was.


    Don''t go in without permission, Aquasteed tries to be cautious...... don''t hesitate to sigh loudly at someone who has pushed Elliot away and gained momentum.


    Beautiful straight brunette, black eyes. Akali was there, the heroine of the Lapis Lazuli ring, dressed in a cute princess line dress.


    "Dear Tiara, Long time no see! How have you been?


    "Yeah..."


    I snort, even as I smile bitterly at free acari as usual.


    "I''m already concerned, I can''t even be there and I''m in person! Can we go?


    "Dear Acari, that will be later. A little bit of a problem."


    Tell Akali''s words, which were told abruptly, to wait a moment. Sure, though the fairy king''s hidden stage is also important.


    Tiara Rose tells me that her memory is strange. Because Akari can use holy prayer, maybe he can cure it¡­


    Aquasteed doesn''t look at the acari very favorably, but I''ll note that he''s kind of close to Tiara Rose.


    "... I see. Give me your hand, huh?


    "What do you think?


    Acari takes Tiara Rose''s hand and uses the power of holy prayer.


    "Um, I don''t know," Akali tells her, seeing if there''s anything unusual.


    "But you don''t seem to have any abnormalities in your body. Good."


    "Thank you, Dear Acari. Memories too...... I''m sure I''ll be back as soon as I''m normal. I was a little confused yesterday, but it''s relatively refreshing today."


    Akali, who calls himself Tiara Rose''s best friend, breathes relief. That looks like you''re really worried about your heart, and it''s not a good idea to make it too bad...... and Aquasteed thinks.


    But it''s honestly harsh that even holy prayers don''t know what causes Tiara Rose. Not so much, because the power of holy prayer is strong and immense.


    I wonder if it would be a good idea to wait slowly for my memory to return, as the person who lost it says.


    If it''s true, I want to undo it and hug it as soon as possible, but I can''t let Tiara Rose force me.


    With that in mind, the acari slaps his hands on the pan. Not to mention that I came up with a name proposal, but I glare at it and alternate between Tiara Rose and Aquasteed.


    - What the hell are you gonna do?


    I stiffened myself up to be wary by accident, but Akali''s suggestion was utterly outrageous.


    "Gather everyone and have a tea party! It''s like a maiden game event and it''s absolutely fun!

 57 12. Tea Party and Late Night Meetings

    It should definitely be a fun tea party! Acari, who so affirmed, just didn''t send out an invitation - he went to storm under the invitees.


    Instant instant execution, plus instant action. It''s like the speed of light...... and Tiara Rose just has to smile bitterly.


    Tiara Rose, Aquasteed and Elliot left in the room. Everyone pounds and sighs.


    "If you''re saying that Master Akali will do it, I guess it will really be instant. I''ll arrange a tea party, so please stay with Mr. Aquasteed, Mr. Tiara Rose."


    "Oh, please"


    Though frightened, Aquasteed makes sure it''s okay to have a tea party with Tiara Rose. He said if he was at all unwell, he should still rest.


    "I''ll be fine.... and I want my memory back as soon as possible."


    "Right."


    Aquasteed reaches out and gently strokes Tiara Rose''s hair. I wish I could keep my eyes closed on that feeling and not have this time...... and I thought so.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    That afternoon, he said, "It''s a tea party!" and the acari smiled.


    When it comes to the faces collected, Isira, Keith, Claire, and - Olivia. Everyone stuck too much in his heart to the clams that seemed satisfied with his throat and face.


    Aquasteed stood behind Tiara Rose and now decided to watch to follow her if anything. If you are this member, there is no problem in omitting a separate first greeting.


    Instead, they will also realize that they do not dare to talk because they are telling the current situation of Tiara Rose.


    "What, Tiara, you don''t remember?


    "... I remember Keith"


    "Is Aquasteed the only one you can forget?"


    With a laugh, Keith takes his seat first.


    The prepared tea party location is a luxurious guest room.


    Coral chandeliers gently light indoors, accentuating the color of the tea poured into the teacup. Tiara Rose welcomes those who have taken her feet as she shines her eyes on the sweets that are carried one after the other.


    "Welcome aboard. Please take your time."


    "Thanks for the invite, Tiara Rose"


    With a tickle of laughter, Claire gives Tiara Rose the baked treat "It''s a souvenir". And while his face shined, Tiara Rose was amazed at how Claire looked.


    - I''ve stopped wearing women''s clothes.


    Pearl isn''t awake, so I certainly don''t need to dress up for her who doesn''t like men anymore. But I felt kind of lonely about that.


    Is it because it reduces glamour? Oh, my God, Tiara Rose also expresses her gratitude for the baked sweets with a smile back.


    "Thank you, Master Crail. We have prepared the tea you liked"


    I''m glad to hear that.


    Smiling, Claire sits next to Keith.


    Next, Isira comes under Tiara Rose as she looks uncomfortable. I guess it''s hard to see you because you behaved rudely to Claire in Pearl''s Palace.


    "Dear Tiara Rose... what can I say?"


    "It''s okay, Master Isira. Thank you for coming to our sudden tea party while you''re busy."


    "No, no. I can always help you, if you like."


    Isira is entrusted with the management of the sea because she is loved by the sea fairies. Besides, we are busy with fish and coral variety improvements.


    It gives me a headache to think that the acari must have brought me here with or without it.


    "Then I took the cake. Enjoy it."


    "Well, thank you"


    I let the cook wave his arm, and Isira smiles.


    Tiara Rose hands it to Filine, softening up whatever the hell the cake is. Don''t forget to ask for your preparation so you can eat right at the tea party.


    Isira sat down and Olivia showed up as the last time she was pulled by Acari. He was holding his nose with a handkerchief, but as soon as he found Tiara Rose, he corrected his posture.


    "I''ll see you first, Dear Tiara Rose. My name is Olivia Ariadel. It''s a great honor to meet you."


    "This is Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest. I''m delighted to meet Olivia, too."


    Aquasteed taught me, name it now. It feels kind of ticklish and embarrassing.


    - Is that it?


    And then, I realize.


    When I look at the clams, I smile.


    When I look at Aquasteed behind me, he sighs wearily. It all turns out to be acari arbitrariness, and I laugh bitterly.


    - Indeed, Master Olivia is under house arrest. Levi, the butler, should be locked up.


    Yes, I recall Aquasteed explaining it to me. Maybe I just didn''t bring Levi in, but I guess I gave him permission for now because Aquasteed won''t say anything.


    "I''m sorry for the inconvenience."


    "No, I hear Master Olivia was in trouble, too. Aren''t you feeling spicy?


    "Yes, thank you for taking care of me."


    Olivia smiled fluffily, saying you were sweet.


    "Come on, let''s start the tea party for now!


    "Yes."


    Nodding at the clams that begin to divide well, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed also take their seats.


    The seats surround the round table in the order of Aquasteed, Tiara Rose, Acari, Isira, Olivia, Keith and Claire.


    "Dear Tiara, I''m a little out of memory... and I wish I could remember by having a tea party, so I gathered you all together."


    "I''m sorry to have taken your precious time. Thank you."


    The relaxed tea party started with Akali giving a light explanation of the current situation.


    Isira''s cake was cut apart and Tiara Rose''s eyes glowed. I don''t remember eating sweets here lately. I want to eat a lot...... what do you think, suddenly it gives me a dangerous vibe.


    - Hmm?


    "... this cake is not delicious"


    "Oh, I''m sorry...... Dear Olivia"


    Olivia, who took a bite of the cake, told him in a cold voice.


    There''s nowhere to look cute until now, and Tiara Rose can''t keep up with her understanding of what the hell happened.


    Isira, who was sitting next to her, shakes her body frighteningly and immediately utters words of apology.


    - Although it''s very tasty.


    The cake Isira brings is always delicious and Tiara Rose beats her tongue out. Leaning his neck, wondering if it would not have suited Olivia''s mouth so well, the acari sitting next to him was sparkling his eyes.


    - Oh, you mean that?


    Unexpectedly, I guessed. Advice, from next door, a small but powerful grunt reaches Tiara Rose''s ear.


    "Real Villain Warrant! Master Tiara didn''t look like a villain warrant at all, so glad to be seen here!


    I''m totally sorry - while I laugh bitterly in my heart, doesn''t it make much sense to flatter Olivia then? Although I don''t know if this is an event or if Olivia originally had these personalities.


    - But Isira said Olivia didn''t think much of her.


    The Duke of Pearlant in Isila and the Duke of Ariadel in Olivia are, to be honest, not that close. Even if Olivia neglects Isira, the heroine entrusted with the management of the sea... well, no wonder.


    As Tiara Rose wonders what to do, the Aquasteed she sees opens her mouth.


    "Miss Olivia, how about that? Miss Isira is in trouble."


    "Well...... His Royal Highness Aquasteed, oh, right. Isira and I are good friends..."


    Olivia glances at Isira and says, "Excuse me," a brief apology.


    "That''s about as much as Dear Tiara told me already... no, I had to harass you more!


    "Dear Akali... I will not do that"


    I think back to the time as I awoke at the acari talking to me in a whisper.


    Heroin Acari was always with Haltnights, who was Tiara Rose''s fianc¨¦e, and guided him from behind to fall Tiara Rose.


    ... although that was, indeed, as the game scenario suggests.


    But Tiara Rose didn''t do anything, so Akali was like a villain position. That makes me laugh at what I''m talking about.


    Look at that, Claire and Keith clap their mouths.


    "... Tiara Rose and Akali are close, aren''t they?"


    "It''s hard to think of a lady who can match Tiara."


    Since the identity of Prince Wang''s Queen has really come to pass, there is no such thing as a warrant for me to talk to Tiara Rose easily.


    Isira is the most friendly young lady in Marine Forest, but she is slightly different from her close friend...... position. Of course, although Tiara Rose wishes we could get along better.


    "Yes, I am, because Lady Tiara and I are best friends!


    Humph and proud, Akali proclaims with his chest stretched out.


    "I''m on Dear Tiara''s side. I''ll tell you what, because whoever turns to the enemy will not forgive you! Especially Dear Aqua!


    "... it''s me?


    Aquasteed looks at the clams with tired eyes that there will be no way to turn to the enemy. Touch Tiara Rose''s hair and tell her, "There''s no way I''m letting you go."


    "That''s fine. Poi, for God''s sake because I can''t remember Master Tiara back... because I will destroy Marine Forest!


    "Dear Acari!


    To the abrupt declaration of destruction, Tiara Rose hastily asked, "What are you talking about!" []/(exp, v5r) to be fond of/to be fond of/"


    Akali is a heroine and has the power of a mighty holy prayer. Honestly, it''s not a funny joke because it''s really not weird to destroy.


    but - and one man laughs at it.


    "Ha, you''re funny"


    "Keith! It''s not funny anymore...... Don''t joke like that, Mr. Akali."


    "Am I serious?


    "Dear Acari......!


    I sighed again at the crabs I was hungry for, and decided to eat the cake wondering what it would be useless to say to the crabs anymore.


    - Oh, I knew it was delicious.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    It was a tea party with key members invited, but Tiara Rose''s memories about Aquasteed never returned.


    Unfortunately for that, because Tiara Rose seemed to enjoy it... Aquasteed decided to think.


    Tiara Rose, who sleeps easily in bed, looks happy and would love to see that sleeping face all the time.


    "I thought I couldn''t do it and have a bedroom with you... but can I be a little complacent"


    Aquasteed told him to sleep in a separate room, but Tiara Rose refused to do so. Of course, I guess there was a lot of grit in Tiara Rose.


    Still, please do as usual... and yes, Tiara Rose told me.


    "Tiara......"


    I stroke my hair slowly and the smell of love comes in.


    Well, it''s time for me to go to bed myself. The moment I thought that, I felt uncomfortable with the pretense - turning around.


    "...... Huh!?"


    The entrance and exit were closed.


    No doors, no windows, you can''t break in from anywhere.


    Yet she was there.


    He backed the night sky with the moon floating, standing in front of the window and laughing.


    "Miss Acari... how did you break in here"


    Aquasteed narrows his eyes, saying what the purpose is.


    And to be sure, Akali laughs out in her voice. Nothing, I''m not here to do anything nasty, and I''m slowly walking over here, telling you.


    "Because I, Dear Tiara, am your best friend! It''s only natural to worry and see how things go."


    "In the middle of the night?


    "Yeah, I thought now would be a good time to talk to Aqua about Tiara''s memory."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Hear Akali''s words and look surprised.


    For once, I used the power of holy prayer to look at Tiara Rose. At that time, he said he couldn''t do it - Akali did tell him that, and I remember feeling sorry for him.


    "... Tiara-sama is the sea, Aqua-sama is the sky. It''s amazing how each of you owns a fairy king''s ring"


    Black eyes were pointed at Aquasteed''s fitted ring.


    Aquasteed is aware of the unscrupulous presence and the use of holy prayer for the Akali. Even this time, yes.


    - How do people from other countries know about this ring?


    Attitude and courage that do not even befall the Fairy King.


    And most importantly, the character of breaking into the bedroom of Aquasteed, Prince Wang, without worrying about anything. Sigh in your heart if you turn to your enemies it''s unlimited hassle......


    "So? You''ve deliberately transferred to my bedroom using the power of holy prayer. You think I even figured out how to get Tiara''s memory back?


    "You mean you get it...... right. I know how to get it back."


    ¡­¡­


    The moment I told you that - the air in the room, it changed.


    I feel it tingly on my skin, and Akali laughs bitterly that when it really comes to Tiara Rose, I can''t afford it anymore.


    The more I weave my jacket and the more Aquasteed moves I was trying to get out of my bedroom stopped.


    Though Tiara Rose is there, he''s not the one who keeps other women in the bedroom. Akali doesn''t care about the place, but Aquasteed cares about Tiara Rose so much.


    "With holy prayer, what can''t be returned...?


    I snort at the questionable words of Aquasteed.


    Nothing, holy prayer is not omnipotent. Of course, although it is limitless and omnipotent - there is not much you can do about sequel games, as the elements necessary to move the game forward are the main ones.


    "To me, I can''t go back. Only Aqua can do that."


    "... me?


    "That''s right. That''s only what Aqua can do. With the power of my holy prayer, I am no match for you.... As Tiara-sama''s best friend, I regret it."


    Add very much, Akali laughs lonely.


    "All you have to do, Aqua, is create the king''s ring."


    "Give me the ring? Me?"


    "Yes."


    Only one special effect can be applied to the ring made by the King.


    Sea rings are poison free. The sky is audio expansion, and the forest is abundant.


    - What kind of ring would Aqua create?


    Laugh and answer Aquasteed who tells you that you can''t possibly do that.


    "My favorite main hero is strong."


    So I pressed my heartbeat.


    Lapis Lazuli''s Ring...... of the sequel, Aquasteed Route Additional Disc.


    Acari thought Tiara Rose was purely amazing when she simply gave Tiara Rose information on the hidden stage, but she would go into an additional episode.


    Of course, Tiara Rose, who has died before the launch, does not know the existence of this disc.


    - This extra episode cost 10,000 yen.


    If it''s going to happen, Akali is convinced it''s going to be the best story ever. Of course, because I still have one foot stuck in it...... I don''t know if it will be a proper episode.


    "But I''m glad Dear Tiara found that possibility"


    I''m glad it''s not Isira.


    Yes, he whined in a small voice, and Akali made the same metastasis when he came - after Aquasteed and Tiara Rose''s bedroom.

 58 13. Underground passages in Royal Castle

    To pretend, the question arose as to how this sequel game would end - in Tiara Rose.


    Nevertheless, there are multiple ending routes available for maiden games. Lapis Lazuli rings have a lot of ending routes, and even the same character should have three routes.


    - Shall I ask Master Akali?


    "Let''s get Filine to set up a tea party"


    Close the book you were reading, Tiara Rose rings the bell that was on the table and calls Philine.


    It''s already been a few days since the tea party hosted by Acari, but my memory hasn''t returned yet. Although I feel a little anxious about it, Aquasteed tells me it''s slow and okay.


    - It''s all sweet, me.


    It''s a physical way, but if I fell and hit him in the head, I might get my memories back! That''s what I tried to do, but Aquasteed stopped me at all costs.


    And then try to take a trip to a place that Aquasteed and I used to go to, or talk about in the same situation. They were all just happy and didn''t bring back memories.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Well, of course, Master Aqua, when it comes to the ending of the route, that''s all I have!


    "Yeah, yeah! I''m impressed to see that again and again!


    "Oh yeah..."


    When I invited Akali to the tea party, Olivia followed me with excitement.


    Cutting out about the ending after you''ve paid for it, the tension between the two grows. I regret not being able to play while wondering if it was so amazing by then.


    "... Olivia was the same Japanese as me in her previous life."


    "It is. I''m ashamed..."


    He was reincarnated and told me that he had memories of being Japanese from birth.


    As much as I envy myself for having my memory back near the end of the game, Tiara Rose thinks that would have been a lot of hard work.


    "I just can''t play the Villain Lady well. I don''t like things like that, even though it has to be worse for Isira..."


    "On purpose, give Isira that attitude?


    Unlike Tiara Rose, you have to do your part! And Olivia seemed to think. After nodding, "acting is difficult," he grins bitterly.


    "Master Olivia is a bystander type. I want to play, but I''m gonna go."


    "Right. It''s horrible how I interact with His Highness, the characters. It suits me as far away as I can see."


    He was originally Aquasteed''s fianc¨¦e, but he declined because he seemed likely to ascend if he stayed all the way near him, his favorite character.


    Somehow, Tiara Rose thinks she''s an unusual warrant.


    And then the topic goes back to the ending.


    "That said, you''re already off the regular route."


    "Right...... Because the regular route is to defeat the monsters sealed by the three fairy kings in cooperation with the fairy kings¡­"


    "... Master Pearl is asleep, so we certainly can''t help and defeat him."


    There was no aquasteed route or anything when Isira, originally a heroine, could not get married, but no one would try to touch it there.


    "By the way, where is that monster sealed?


    "Right here."


    "Underneath this castle."


    "Yeah eh!?"


    Tiara Rose was so surprised that her eyes didn''t pop out at the two people who cursed her.


    I never thought there would be a place like that in the basement where I live. And soon, the question arises whether Aquasteed or the King knows.


    "The truth is, heroine¡­ Isira is blessed by all fairy kings, and it''s an event that occurs after you get the ring, right?"


    "But Isira is not blessed by any fairy king."


    "On the contrary, it''s an irregular that Master Aqua is wearing an empty ring!


    Although that may be a delicious development, the acari breathes.


    I didn''t think Akari would miss this opportunity to see episodes that I hadn''t played. It would be pretty hard to stop her claiming to be looking forward to it while shining her eyes.


    And at the same time, Olivia also turns her anticipation glance here.


    Playing the Villain Warrant Lady, she stepped on that she should not be actively involved - but is the unepisode still bothering me?


    but it wasn''t actually.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, Dear Acari. I really... want to go to the" Sealed and King''s Room "in the basement here!


    "Well, I''d love to see that, too. In other words, Olivia''s hobby is pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Next time, I''d love to come to Lapis Lazuli."


    "Yes! Please let me go!


    Make a stop at the two heating up and raise your voice that you just can''t do that on your own.


    "That''s good. Master Tiara, you must be wondering.


    "It is...... But what if the monster''s seal is unsealed?"


    "Mm-hmm. We have to do something."


    "I won''t."


    Heroins, rings, fairy kings, monsters who gather all of them and defeat them.


    Can these three take it down? It is impossible to decide.


    "But if you just look... where the blessing of the Fairy King is unnecessary, the only sanctuary I haven''t been to is in the basement here"


    "Dear Olivia..."


    The royal castle and garden said they looked around during night clubs and so on.


    But just like that - I drop my shoulder saying I couldn''t get to the basement of the Royal Castle. He said that if anything, the Duke of Ariadel would be annoyed, so he could do it all the time.


    That''s all I ask, though I''m terribly healthy - the things I want are too big.


    Now, a clear voice echoes indoors where Tiara Rose is in trouble to figure out what to do.


    "... you''re telling an interesting story"


    "Dear Claire...... Huh!


    - Yes, Mr. Crail''s weapon is information.


    I was alarmed because I paid for it, but there was no way I could shut down anything involving sound to the Fairy King in the sky.


    - What do I do?


    The opponent is blessing Aquasteed, the Fairy King in the sky.


    Technically, he''s on Aquasteed''s side, not Tiara Rose''s. An unpleasant sweat runs through my back, creating a smile to fix it.


    When Tiara Rose was thinking about what to do, she flashed! All in all, a shining acari slapped his bread and hand.


    "Dear Claire, let''s go underground together!" Sealed, I want to go among kings. "


    "... I''m afraid you know that place."


    Who is it? Ignore the words of Claire and ear softly at Claire when the clam is something.


    - Dear Acari?


    After Crayle showed me what the hell he thought he was thinking - "Fine," he replied with a slight acknowledgment.


    "What, Master Crail...?


    "I''ll get you on Akali''s suggestion. Tiara Rose doesn''t want to go underground in the Royal Castle?


    "I..."


    Hear Crail''s inquiry and get stuck in words.


    My heart accelerated from time to time and I was struck by a feeling of impatience that I couldn''t help.


    Hold hands tight in front of your chest and stare at the Crails.


    "Tiara Rose?"


    "... I''m scared. If I remember Master Aqua and my current memory disappears..."


    I''m just talking about the possibilities, but I add that and laugh bitterly.


    I just have amnesia, when I remember. I''ve heard a lot about losing my memory while I was having amnesia since my last life.


    This time it''s a special case, so it may be okay, but there''s no guarantee whatsoever.


    So the fact that we''re going through a lot of things in our current state - it feels awful and horrible.


    "Dear Tiara... You were thinking about that. I''m your best friend... sorry I didn''t notice your anxiety"


    "No, never mind, Dear Acari"


    - I wish I was as strong as Akali.


    If this was just about me, I wouldn''t think so. I don''t care about anything, I''ll do everything I can to get my memories back.


    But.


    I don''t want to forget about Aquasteed right now... cut it, I wish.


    "Tears don''t suit Tiara Rose."


    "Dear Claire... I''m sorry, I"


    "Shut up."


    Claire takes out the handkerchief and wipes Tiara Rose''s tears.


    "Well, it''s natural for Tiara Rose to be anxious. But yeah... if Tiara Rose doesn''t want to forget her current memory, that''s how it should be"


    "Sure, I like that"


    ¡­¡­


    Claire and Akali go on to talk very clap, and Tiara Rose can''t keep up with the content at all. Tilting his neck about what the hell he was talking about, Akari laughed and said, "It''s okay! I''ll just tell him."


    Is it because you have a good smile that makes me very anxious......


    "If you say Master Crail would be nice, I''m sure Master Aqua will allow it too. Then let''s go now!


    "Oh now...!?"


    Exactly, it''s not ready for the mind or anything.


    In the first place, it should be like a mountain to assume, for example, what if the monster''s seal is unsealed?


    When my head ached - Tiara Rose held down her temples.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    My senses attacked Aquasteed and I suspected that it would be troublesome...


    "Dear Aquasteed, what is it?


    "It''s a visitor I haven''t invited."


    Checking documents in the office distorts the air in the room.


    Crail has shifted on the flutter and wind - until fine, but then even the clams have shifted. Claire is fine, but the acari is nothing but trouble.


    "Dear Clayle, Dear Acari... I will have tea ready immediately -"


    "You don''t need that! ''Cause I''ll be right there."


    "Yes..."


    Elliot moves to prepare for hospitality, but it is overtaken by Akali.


    It''s going to give me a headache to get out in front of Aquasteed all the time and start telling me that everything will be decided already.


    "I mean..."


    "Underneath this royal castle, right? You can''t allow it."


    - I''ve never heard of anything in the basement.


    Aquasteed sighs, saying that his father, the king, would not even know. To a place like that, let''s go right away. Yes. There''s no way I can tell you to go.


    Watching Aquasteed shook his neck sideways hard, Akari swells his cheeks puffy. But the face quickly becomes serious and tells Aquasteed different information.


    "... even if the place where you create the king''s ring is there?

 59 14. Aquasteeds Ring

    Large country marine forest.


    The basement of the royal castle has become a mighty labyrinth - "sealed and between kings.


    Dim passages smell a little damp.


    The walls lined with inorganic gray bricks bring only a tiny bit of light. Magic or something, but no one cares about it.


    Because everyone was, in this place, overwhelmed by the air.


    "I didn''t know there was such a space in the basement of the castle..."


    Aquasteed takes a small breath when he sees the passage that spreads in front of him.


    Unlike the usual outfit, look ahead to wrapping that around your knight''s clothes. No matter what, they were dressed in moveable clothes.


    View a view of the Royal Castle as Elliot holds the lamp in his hand.


    underground passage, which would undoubtedly have been from the time it was designed, but there are no traces of it like that anywhere.


    "... because it''s a country with a long history. At the time of the founding of the country, very little material was available. Exactly, it''s a problem that nobody knows about the basement of the Royal Castle."


    "There''s nothing humans can do."


    Aquasteed thought that the fairies and their king must have been at the centre and managed.


    A cheerful voice echoes down the road, completely different from an aquasteed of such seriousness.


    "That''s fine now, so let''s go!


    "Dear Acari, if they run suddenly, it''s dangerous!


    "Fine. Dear Tiara, you''re worried."


    Clams in half pants that tie their hair and seem to emphasize ease of movement make them smile. It says on its face that I can''t help but look forward to the underground passage of the royal castle.


    "There shouldn''t be that much (...) danger, so it''s okay"


    "Until Dear Olivia..."


    But that would mean there would be some danger...... Tiara Rose sighs. I just hope that no one gets hurt, that it can be sealed and go between kings.


    I can''t help but worry mainly about Acari and Olivia.


    "... well, shall we go"


    With a bitter smile, Elliot takes the lead.


    Tiara Rose to Acari and Olivia right behind it. Behind it, Aquasteed and Claire.


    A less combative woman is caught between them.


    After a short walk, the aisle was divided into two strands.


    Now, whatever I do, it bothers my head - not long after, the voices of Acari and Olivia overlapped.


    "Right!"


    "... is that the power of the holy prayer of Lord Akali?


    Elliot looks at the acari with surprise, wondering how he knows the way.


    Unexpectedly he said, "Ah," but Akali nodded to Elliot''s words as if nothing had happened. Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at how convenient it is with the power of holy prayer.


    At the same time, I thought I was very jealous of the two of them playing the fairy king''s hidden stage in their previous lives.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Would you have walked for about an hour?


    At the end of the long passage, I saw the light. On either side of the luxurious door, a flower-inspired lamp is placed to illuminate the area. The doors are sculpted so that the fairies protect something.


    "There really was..."


    Elliot, who was half-hearted, opens his mouth pompously on the way there. And soon, I''ll take notes on the notebook I was bringing.


    - Guys, I''m on it.


    I do care because it''s the event stage of the game, but I wonder if Tiara Rose didn''t have to come this suddenly......


    It involved aquasteeds and crails and took care of them. I feel sorry for losing my memory and causing so much trouble.


    "Come on, let''s go, Dear Tiara! I''m sure it''ll bring back memories here."


    "Huh...?


    I take Tiara Rose''s hand for a long time, and Akali puts her hand on the door.


    Behind the door, which had been opened, only one altar had been set up in the centre of the room. The circular interior is muraled and depicts humans and fairies living happily ever after.


    Between the sealed and king, who briefly invited the Tiara Roses.


    "... who?


    "Huh?"


    Aquasteed, who was behind Tiara Rose, staring at the pedestal, raises his voice in large measure. That gaze is poured on the central pedestal, but I don''t feel any signs of people being there.


    Acari and Olivia breathed as they wondered what Tiara Rose meant.


    - Oh, I see. Is it the story of the game?


    I don''t know because Claire doesn''t change her expression, but I guess she doesn''t even look like a confused Elliot. And you don''t even look like two secretly tense women.


    "Dear Akali, what is this..."


    "Shit, Dear Tiara!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Acari''s attention brings silence to the hall.


    Thinking just fine in a way, Aquasteed thinks about the ring to revive Tiara Rose''s memory.


    No.


    - Here, I can create a ring.


    I don''t know why you thought that, but that''s what Aquasteed''s instinct understood.


    ''... how many years... it''s been thousands of years since we''ve had customers here''


    "You are..."


    "Welcome, my descendants"


    A man grinned and smiled, blocking Aquasteed''s words as he tried to ask.


    He ties the same dark blue hair as Aquasteed into one and flushes it forward. The white based outfit made me feel some age, with a long cloak spread out on the floor.


    As if in contrast to myself, I see an unreadable smile of thought.


    "Some generations ago, do you mean King of Marine Forest..."


    "First generation, to be exact."


    "Ferres Marine Forest"


    As soon as Aquasteed calls his name, he is returned ''Well Done''.


    I will not forget the name of the first king.


    "Long time no see, too, Claire."


    "Oh, Fell looks as good as ever."


    ¡­¡­


    I thought you looked familiar, but soon Aquasteed reconsiders whether it was obvious or not. Unlike humans, fairy kings who live a long time. Even if he lived before the founding of Marine Forest, no wonder.


    Claire, nicknamed Fell, looks happy somewhere.


    - When that happens, will it be a pretty close pattern?


    They say fairies and humans used to be more intimate than they are now. That''s only because of the power of the kings of history, Aquasteed thinks.


    I guess I made a lot more effort to be loved by fairies than I do now. All the books in the royal castle are old and few new.


    If you become the first king, it goes without saying.


    Because they made Marine Forest and made the fairy kings acknowledge it. A word of respect dominates Aquasteed.


    "The kid with the clail ring is my descendant, and the kid with the pearl ring?


    "My Lady."


    "Yeah. Speaking of which, you haven''t heard the name yet."


    Looking alternately at Aquasteed and Tiara Rose, Ferres offers his hand. While shaking hands, Aquasteed gives his name and thanks.


    "Aquasteed? Yeah, that''s a good name. ''


    "Thank you"


    ''And then there''s Tiara Rose. That kid''s the only one getting Keith''s blessing, that''s amazing.''


    Seeing Tiara Rose as she was surprised, ''I wonder if Keith has become mild,'' Ferres laughs. But still, Claire keeps saying the words.


    "You''re not."


    ''I thought so!


    Ferres laughing with his hands slapped is a lot worse than earlier. Quietly observe, wondering which is the original him.


    And this first king - Ferres, why is he here?


    - A sealed monster, it won''t be.


    I wonder if it acts like a monster watch, but if I can create a ring here, I also think it might have something to do with it. Or both?


    "-So."


    Pattin, and.


    Ferres rings his finger and instantly turns the altar that was in the center into a throne. Aquasteed is alert to what will begin as he hears the breathtaking voices of the Tiara Roses behind him.


    I don''t think it''s malicious, but I can''t read the intentions.


    - I''ve never thought a sneer grin so scary.


    "Hmm, it''s inconvenient that everyone can''t see me."


    "Fell is a ghost, so there''s only one person you can see."


    Return to the dissatisfied Ferres words that Crail has no choice.


    Hearing the word ghost, Aquasteed is convinced that it does. There''s no way I can live this long time alive.


    "Aquasteed Marine Forest"


    "Yes."


    ''Here, you can create a ring. I guess that''s why you''re here, huh?


    A clear voice tells you not to tolerate denial.


    Aquasteed''s answer is yes, of course, but sometimes we have to confirm it as the King Prince of this country.


    "Before that, one. I heard there''s a monster here, but it''s..."


    "It''s okay. The seal is tight, so you won''t wake up."


    "Really?"


    Relax and stroke his chest down, Aquasteed stares straight at Ferres.


    "Tiara Rose is losing her memory wearing the ring of the Fairy King of the Sea.... To reclaim that memory, I want to get the king''s ring"


    There was anxiety that creating a ring for just one woman would be rejected. But look at Ferres - Aquasteed felt he wasn''t the one to say that.


    He''s probably alive, not obsessed with the little things. I realized by instinct that he was such a person.


    "Fine."


    Ferres tells him immediately and invites him to come.


    Walking to the front of the throne, Aquasteed kneels.


    After laughing contentedly at it, Ferres calls Tiara Rose''s name. It''s a ring for her, so you''d better make it where she''s in person, right? Say so and watch Aquasteed.


    Claire brought Tiara Rose and placed her hands gently on that shoulder.


    "Uh...?


    Perplexed, yet honestly obeying Tiara Rose.


    Moment after moment, fluttering Tiara Rose''s hair danced and the wind blew into the windless indoor.


    And then he opens his eyes to the person who appeared in front of him.


    "- Master Aqua, is there another?


    "I''m Ferres Marine Forest. It''s the first king of this country, Tiara Rose. ''


    "Huh! Excuse me. I am Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest"


    Immediately take the finest thanks and Tiara Rose kneels.


    "The hard greeting, I''m done. Come on, let''s make a ring. ''


    - It''s not the ending, is it?


    Ferres, who told him to create the ring, smiles a lot like Aquasteed. The appearance seemed fun, and I didn''t think it was very much that the monster was sealed here.


    ''Oh well. You''re worried about Tiara Rose.''


    "Oh, um..."


    ''If you''re talking about monsters, don''t worry. It''s sealed, so it never comes out''


    "Really..."


    I''m glad you thought about Marine Forest, Ferres says.


    "Because you can see and hear me only while Claire touches you"


    "Yes, Master Crail, I''m sorry for the inconvenience."


    "I don''t mind."


    After watching the exchange between the two, Ferres calls'' Come ''and Tiara Rose next to Aquasteed.


    "Come on, Tiara Rose. Give me your left hand, Aquasteed. ''


    He snorts and Tiara Rose offers her left hand to Aquasteed. Take that hand and Aquasteed gently kisses A.


    A gentle, serious eye aquasteed - looks like someone else from the usual. More pressing air comes through than usual and drinks sagging and spitting.


    Claire takes her hand off Tiara Rose''s shoulder and tells her to "close her eyes"...... and honestly follows it.


    To the sight where you can no longer see anything, all you feel is the warmth of Aquasteed touching your hands. Sometimes I hear a lot of heart sounds and I hope no one else has listened to me.


    "In the Name of Ferres Marine Forest, Give Aquasteed Marine Forest the King''s Ring"


    Aquasteed''s fingertips peer through Tiara Rose''s left hand pharmacopoeia.


    Wedding rings are worn there, but I immediately feel the presence of different rings on my skin. Original ring and new ring overlay.


    "The word of the covenant - you know what I mean?


    The voice of Ferres, the first king, pushes Aquasteed''s back.


    "I swear here in the name of Aquasteed Marine Forest, star watching over the land of Marine Forest. Whether the flowing stars and the earth that supports the country perish, it is unlikely that the ring will lose its shine -"


    As Aquasteed finished his pledge, the ring that appeared on Tiara Rose''s left hand pharmacopoeia glowed strongly.

 60 15. Love it

    "This is... Lady Aqua''s, the ring?


    Tiara Rose''s left hand pharmacopoeia. A new Aquasteed ring worn so that it overlaps the wedding ring that was originally put on. With sparkling star jewels, it''s like the night sky.


    "... Me"


    "Tiara?"


    ".................. Aqua"


    When I realized it, I overflowed with puffiness and tears.


    Many times I call the names "Aqua" and Aquasteed to make sure that''s the name of my loved one. How could I forget, so much so that Aquasteed''s memory comes back to life.


    When I saw Tiara Rose like that, Aquasteed was hacked. Hold him right over and call his name as if to call him "Tiara".


    "Dear Aqua...... Huh! I remember..."


    "Oh."


    I also hug him from myself and bury his face in Aquasteed''s chest. Oh, I was wondering what I would do if I could never remember Aquasteed again.


    "I''m sorry, I''ve hurt you so many times about Aqua..."


    Crying to sneeze, Tiara Rose utters words of apology.


    I remember properly when I didn''t remember. Is it because he was telling me that he was anxious, that Aquasteed''s ring did not take away Tiara Rose''s new memory?


    As he strokes his head, Aquasteed tells him "it''s okay" over and over again.


    "I won''t let Tiara go, even if I don''t get my memory back"


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "If they didn''t like me - I could have locked them up"


    Aquasteed smiles, though he was never disliked.


    "Even if I had lost my memory, there is no way I would dislike Master Aqua!


    "Tiara......"


    "Absolutely. I can assure you."


    "Curiously, I can assure you, too"


    They both laugh that no matter how much they raise, they can''t hate each other.


    "Is this a happy ending?


    Make sure to lean your neck and ask Olivia, where Akali stands next to you.


    In front of you are Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, who are hugging each other. I''d be happy if those two were happy, but I don''t have all the fairy kings and I haven''t defeated any monsters.


    What makes it different from the game, though that''s fun.


    "Probably... I think so"


    "But Master Olivia is locked up with Deacon working disrespectfully on Tiara and Aqua. That can''t be happy, can it?


    "Dear Acari, have you forgotten? I, Olivia Ariadel, am a villain''s maid."


    Olivia says it''s really like a villain''s warrant for her butler being put in a cell.


    But what I don''t find interesting is the acari. I don''t like that Olivia, who''s gotten along because of it, seems lonely, and I was concerned about the existence of a butler who''s not a game character in the first place.


    When I tell Olivia that, she laughs like "oh" nothing.


    "Levy, when I was little, I picked it up. I gave it a name and educated it as a butler. Just..."


    "Just?"


    Akali is impressed that picking people up was a bolder person than he thought. Urging the words that follow, Olivia gives a look as troubled as she is.


    "Me, I talk to myself a lot. I used to talk about the game... and Levi remembered it all."


    "Oh..."


    "So I know everything about the game."


    He says he has taken Olivia''s solitaire seriously and believes it all. Of course the contents of the game are true, but this is not strictly the game world.


    There is a difference - Olivia was also discussing it, so Levy was convinced to come up with it herself, I guess.


    Levi, the most powerful partner not a gaming character, has become such a presence.


    "Deacon of the Dark Device, certainly the strongest."


    "I''m a proud butler."


    The story of Acari and Olivia has just come to a paragraph, and the thick, heavy air surrounds them. Everyone looks around to see what''s going on, and Aquasteed and Elliot put their hands on the sword on their hips.


    "Maybe the seal...!?"


    Tension runs in Tiara Rose''s raised voice.


    But I thought Ferres told you there was no problem. When Tiara Rose saw the throne, Ferres was there unchanged.


    "Your Highness Ferres...... eh"


    ''... it''s okay, not yet''


    When Ferres uses his power, the air is swept away. Relaxed, but in my heart, I fear a piece of power this monster has put out.


    I wonder if you don''t have to take him down. But the first king said it was no problem. I''m not here for anything that can overshadow that.


    Precisely, if it''s Crail, it''s possible. But I''m not gonna say anything, Claire, and he''s not gonna do it hairy.


    Ferres sits deeply on the throne, her golden eyes staring at Aquasteed.


    ''That''s the king''s ring. Aquasteed, don''t abandon that pride.''


    "Absolutely."


    "Tiara Rose. Best wishes for my lovely offspring."


    "... Yes!


    Hearing Tiara Rose and Aquasteed reply, Ferres smiled satisfactorily. And I turn my gaze to Claire, and I wave, ''Nice to meet you.''


    "Now I''ll bring Keith to see you."


    "Yeah. I''m looking forward to it."


    When Ferres rang his fingers with his pussy, the throne disappeared and the altar appeared again. At the same time, you won''t be able to see Ferres.


    Loneliness in a cancerous space, Tiara Rose holds her own hand.


    "Dear Aqua,"


    "... I never thought the First King would be underground"


    Aquasteed laughs bitterly that I have to thank Akali for saying I''m going to be here.


    Grateful to the altar, Aquasteed takes Tiara Rose''s hand. All I had to do was go back and turn around - I opened my eyes wide.


    The ceiling part of the entrance was about to start to collapse again.


    - Why, when?


    Beneath it stands just Acari and Olivia.


    "Dear Acari, Dear Olivia!!"


    Tiara Rose, who turned around, also noticed and immediately calls the two names - but not in time for the Tiara Roses in the center of the room.


    Elliot, who was checking the room, is also standing away.


    I make an unpleasant noise, and the moment the ceiling tries to collapse - I bounce off that debris so that a black shadow pops up to shelter the two of us.


    "- Levi!"


    "Yes, Olivia"


    Wear your usual butler clothes and land beautifully from the air.


    Smiling gently at Olivia calling her name, she said, "Are you hurt? asked."


    How the hell did the butler who was supposed to have put him in the dungeon of the castle get here? Everyone wanted to put their heads on it, but they were fortunate to have saved Acari and Olivia.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Returning from the basement of the royal castle to his chamber, Tiara Rose was in a mood for thought. My gaze swims through the universe and I can''t conclude in myself what to do - that feeling.


    I look at the ring layered on my pharmacopoeia, and I glance at it with my finger.


    "Lord Aqua created it just for me, the ring"


    Now you have to be careful not to take it off, or I''ll hold your hand. I can''t laugh if this comes off accidentally and I have amnesia again.


    With that in mind, the sound of a knock echoes into the room.


    When I urged you to go ahead, it was Filine who told the visitors. Tell him immediately that Acari and Olivia are coming and ask Tiara Rose what she will do.


    "Let me through. Philine, please have some tea."


    "Yes, sir."


    Tiara Rose gets up and invites Acari and Olivia to the room. I make sure Levi looks right behind me and accidentally hides the hand the ring is wearing.


    Olivia, who saw it, takes a step forward. And I bow my head deeply and say words of apology.


    "... Levi won''t do anything anymore. Dear Tiara Rose, I am truly sorry for this time."


    "I am so sorry"


    Levy bows his head in the same way and apologizes to Tiara Rose.


    "... my actions were also frivolous. I hear Levy was moving to help Master Olivia. I''m glad Olivia''s okay."


    "Dear Tiara Rose..."


    One paragraph around me, I was too conscious of the game. Tiara Rose is also bad for not thinking she can stand still when she hears something that sounds like fun about hidden stages.


    Olivia and Levy have apparently already gone to Aquasteed to apologize as well.


    Olivia says she bowed her head sincerely, thinking it wasn''t strange for her neck to fly physically.


    "Your Highness Aquasteed is kind. To a mob like me, there was no terrible punishment for this underground passage discovery."


    "Really..."


    I''d love to get into it if it wasn''t for Mob, but I''m going to put up with it a lot because I was about to break my hip on the story.


    This time, Olivia and Levy say the punishment is mainly money. I listened to Aquasteed''s decision and was relieved inside. I don''t want to see the same ex-Japanese being punished as myself.


    - Plus, I know how Levi feels.


    What if I was in Levy''s shoes and Aquasteed had been imprisoned like Olivia? I''m sure that I will make the most of my knowledge as a gaming experience without worrying about it.


    - It could be worse than Levy.


    So bitterly laughing Tiara Rose, but after two apologies Aquasteed thought the same thing. I know that liking someone makes people so impulsive - the first time I''ve ever truly loved someone.


    "Dear Tiara, please continue to be close"


    "Oh, I''m here too, Master Olivia."


    "Yes, thank you both so much this time"


    Tiara Rose thanks again and smiles.


    "We''ll be back in Marine Forest, so have tea regularly!


    "Yeah, definitely."


    Akali, who is staying at Marine Forest because he can''t, tells him it''s time to go home. I''m engaged to Halt Knights, Tiara Rose''s ex-fianc¨¦, but I''m worried it''s going well.


    Tiara Rose had been made to struggle by Halt Knights until now, but from now on Halt Knights is going to be made to struggle by Akali... and I thought in the corner of my heart.


    "The three of us would also like to make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land...... With Dear Tiara Rose, it''s a face pass anywhere!


    "Uh..."


    I laugh bitterly because I can''t just wield power in that place. When I''m streaming that it''s a joke because it''s about the commonsense Olivia, the knock sounds in the room again.


    "Tiara"


    "Dear Aqua,"


    It was Aquasteed who gave me a peek in the face.


    "Oh, did I interrupt?


    Look at Acari and Olivia in the room and Aquasteed tells them, "Shall we get back out?" But soon, Akali shook his head, "I''m about to be rude now," he said.


    "Actually, I have to leave Marine Forest by the end of the day."


    "Huh."


    "By the end of the day..."


    All I can say is a sigh in the words of a sudden acari.


    Instruct Elliot, who Aquasteed immediately withheld, to prepare because he is not at all ready to drop off.


    "Dear Acari, please say that sooner"


    "I''m sorry, but I didn''t want to water you at this time of fun"


    Akali rises from his seat and takes Tiara Rose''s hand. I gripped tight and apologized this time for all the mess I had gotten into.


    "To Dear Tiara, I didn''t want to put an extra load on you.... about memories."


    "No. I am glad you told Akali about this one. Olivia and I became friends, and we were able to get Aqua''s ring."


    Tiara Rose heartily tells me she''s really happy.


    Then...... and the acari snorted laughing too.


    "Then we have to have a bigger adventure next! Me, I will work out enough to defeat the monster when I get back to Lapis Lazuli!!"


    "Please, make yourself comfortable, Dear Acari"


    Tiara Rose prayed for a suddenly motivated acari and to make sure no trouble arose for a while.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Safely dropped off the acaris, and an end was finally struck to this series of disturbances.


    As a result of Tiara Rose''s arbitrary move to see the hidden stage, it annoyed a lot of people. Some people were delighted, but they told Aquasteed that it made them have all the hard work they didn''t need... that''s what they think.


    Sometimes even wine comes into the bedroom with something of good quality, even before going to bed.


    "You''ll be tired, you just have to drink and sleep right away"


    "Thank you, Master Aqua.... I''ve caused you a lot of trouble"


    Sorry, Tiara Rose bows her head to Aquasteed. Aquasteed, who saw it, chuckled and placed his hand gently on its head.


    I stroke my squeamish, look at the messy Tiara Rose hair and laugh again.


    "I don''t care about anything. I want you to tell me everything Tiara wants to do, and I want to keep having fun like this."


    Aquasteed puts his finger on his mouth with a forethought, though not what Prince Wang says.


    "Every day, when it''s a monotonous errand...... you want stimulation, don''t you?


    "Dear Aqua..."


    I accidentally squirt and laugh with Tiara Rose.


    The two of us sit on the bunk and toast quietly with a glass of wine. Only the moonlight coming in through the window illuminates the room, creating sweet air between them.


    Aquasteed takes Tiara Rose''s hand and touches the ring she created. Even in the dark it shines. Tiara Rose thinks it''s all packed with Aquasteed thoughts.


    It''s an important treasure.


    Softly Aquasteed leans over and mouths the ring.


    That tickles a little, and it''s like it''s twisted. Keep it on your cheek, on your forehead, on your lips - a gentle kiss kept coming down, then your lips went away and you had Aquasteed and your eyes.


    He only stares at Tiara Rose, his golden eyes.


    I''m fascinated by Aquasteed''s eyes, which glitter like a ring. Slowly reach into Aquasteed''s cheek and stroke his cheek.


    I want to see more Aquasteed eyes, when I thought so - I realized it.


    - Golden, eyes.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "Yeah? What, Tiara"


    "... no. I love Aqua."


    Gently, mouth to the eye of Aquasteed and hug the wine so that it does not zero. Call Aquasteed''s name again and ask Aquasteed to call his name too.


    Golden eyes, the king''s eyes.


    All fairy kings are born with golden eyes. It is impossible for anyone else to wear gold in his eyes.


    - Master Aqua''s eyes are the same golden color as the Fairy King...?


    Until now, questions that I have never cared about come here and flood out.


    I thought Aquasteed created the ring because it was the main character in the game. But think in real life - isn''t it hard to create a ring just because it''s a main character?


    Even if Ferres was helping me.


    "Sweeter, Tiara"


    Aquasteed''s big hand strokes Tiara Rose''s back.


    The temperature is comfortable and place the wine glass on the side table before dropping. Keep you two lying down, kissing goodnight and falling asleep.


    I wonder if there is something bigger about the existence of Aquasteed than a human being - such a question remained in the Tiara Rose.

 61 1. Forest Tea Party

    Coral chandeliers, lace curtains. The white-toned interior incorporates plenty of sunlight to highlight its luxury.


    This is the royal castle of the kingdom of Marine Forest, the private room of the Crown Princess. She has fluffy honey pink hair, a gentle smile that everyone is likely to fall in love with if you look at it - but she''s actually a villain''s warrant.


    I was about to daughter-in-law from the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli to Marine Forest, this great country located in a neighbouring country, and the month of almost two years was about to flow.


    As the queen of Aquasteed, the Crown Prince, there is also strong support from the people. With the blessing of the Fairy King of the Forest and the Sea, it is whispered that the future of this country is secure.


    Name, Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest.


    Lapis is a name given by her homeland and has also been promised a certain status in Lapis Lazuli.


    She is the villain warrant position for the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, but now she lives very happily ever after.


    "Soon."


    From Tiara Rose, I get a small voice. He went on to speak to Philine, a samurai.


    "Philine, how are you getting ready for the tea party?


    "Yes, Dear Tiara Rose. Whenever you have a customer, no problem."


    I''m relieved by Philine''s words.


    Hosting a tea party, however many times I go through it, makes me worry about whether there are any deficiencies in preparation, etc. I am careful to treat you well so that you can enjoy yourself.


    "The cook said that Tiara Rose made a wonderful treat today. I saw it, but it wasn''t just that it looked delicious and it was cute."


    "Really? Glad! Thanks."


    Tiara Rose gives thanks as she lets her honey pink hair twirl with her fingers.


    Fluffy hair is half-upped and flushed to the sides, and the Empire Line dress is arranged with a slightly cute, twisted ornament.


    The theme of today''s tea party is:


    Aside from the shortcakes, I also tried to get Dafu for moose, tart, macaroon, and a bit of Japanese style. Handmade by Tiara Rose.


    "Hehe, if you''re invited to Dear Tiara Rose''s Tea Party, you''re all happy"


    "I hope so..."


    Philine, the samurai, tells her so with a smile.


    The tea party organized by Tiara Rose is called the "Forest Tea Party" and is very popular with the ladies.


    The reason for this is that Tiara Rose is the only one in this country blessed by the fairies of the forest and their kings. I guess Tiara Rose, who has done light things we couldn''t have accomplished ourselves, is also admirable.


    Nevertheless, Tiara Rose herself thinks that she is the Queen of Aquasteed... There are many people who want to be liked by the next king''s queen.


    Tiara Rose is drowned by Aquasteed, so even more so.


    It will be time for the inviting ladies to climb the castle.


    The door to the room opens at a time when I stood up to make a move to pick you up.


    "Tiara, tea party already?


    "Dear Aqua, Yes, it''s time...... what''s wrong?


    It was Aquasteed who showed his face.


    He is the king prince of this country and husband of Tiara Rose.


    "No, I''m just here because I''ve got a little time."


    That said, Aquasteed chuckles.


    He''s a busy butler from day to day, but when his time is free, he comes under Tiara Rose. Previously, Tiara Rose said that I should rest more... but shamelessly say that being by Tiara Rose is the best way to rest my heart.


    "I''m sorry I couldn''t take it very slowly..."


    "It''s not about Tiara."


    "Have fun," Aquasteed says, gently stroking his head. With a nod to it, Tiara Rose also tries to stroke Aquasteed''s head with an aside.


    The saggy, glossy dark blue hair makes me want to touch it more.


    "What''s up, Tiara?"


    "Aqua always strokes me, so I thought to myself... I kind of like it"


    ".................. oh no more, Tiara is..."


    - I feel like Aqua caresses my hair a lot.


    Touching someone you like is fun from time to time......


    With that in mind, a maid came to the room to tell her that there had been a visitor. At the same time, Elliot, near Aquasteed''s side, also showed his face.


    Aquasteed should have been taking a break for a while, but Elliot looks a little rushed. Something must have happened, Tiara Rose thinks.


    "If I thought Tiara''s invitees were here, they said I could do the job too"


    "Right.... See you at night"


    "Oh."


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Forest tea parties are often held in one of several rooms served by Tiara Rose. If the weather permits, there is also the option of a garden, but my skin burns after being in the sun for a long time.


    Today, a tea party is available indoors.


    The three ladies I invited.


    Olivia Ariadel, the friendliest warrant in Tiara Rose and Marine Forest.


    What a villain''s warrant for the sequel to the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, she is, a Duke''s house warrant. In my childhood, I was only engaged to Aquasteed for a moment, but that also quickly dissolved and now I live in peace and fun.


    I have memories of when I was Japanese because I was reincarnated, and I like to pilgrimage the spots in the game to the sanctuary. In the future, she talks about wanting to marry around the Count''s second son and live as she pleases.


    Lucia Baldenstan, the Count''s maid.


    He is a family member who runs the Confectionery Chamber, and he loves sweets, too.


    Christina Foxsut, a baroness'' courtier.


    I love rumors and often tell Tiara Rose the fashionable stuff.


    "Wow, that''s amazing! Tiara Rose''s treats are all lovely."


    "Yeah, really. It''s such an honor to invite you to our tea party!


    Look at the treats prepared and Lucia and Christina speak up. "That''s Senior Tiara Rose," Olivia whines as she blinks her eyes, too.


    Thus, under high tension¡­ Tiara Rose''s "Tea Party in the Woods" began.


    "I hear there''s been a lot of honey circulation lately. Whatever, I heard you can collect a lot of quality honey from Tiara Rose''s flowers."


    "You already know that? I''m a little embarrassed to think of flowers with my name on them, but I''m so glad they''re helping."


    In Lucia''s words, Tiara Rose smiles illuminated.


    The flower of Tiara Rose, the national flower, is the kind of flower that exists to make sweets. The petals are sweet and the baggy fruit contains fine sugar. The great circle of pink became a symbol of this important country now loved by the people.


    The first thing to be exchanged at this tea party is to talk about sweets.


    Sometimes I love the organizer Tiara Rose, and the invited warrants always have information on how to fly it off.


    And of course, flowers bloom in fashionable dresses and romance stories.


    "Speaking of which..." Olivia cut out the story.


    "It''s almost the wedding of His Royal Highness Haltnites and Lord Akali of the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli"


    "Yeah, a month from now, so I''m just getting ready."


    Tiara Rose nods and hopefully it will be a happy wedding.


    Akali is a heroine in the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring. At first we met, it was like a rivalry, but now we treat Tiara Rose''s best friend friendly enough to name her.


    Such Tiara Rose, Lucia gives a worried voice.


    "Congratulations to His Royal Highness Haltnights on your marriage... the right to inherit the throne rests with His Royal Highness Sirius, my brother, right?


    "Master Akali is a user of holy prayer, why are you married to His Highness Haltnights? It would be cheaper for Lapis Lazuli to marry His Highness Sirius..."


    Christina agrees with that, snorts.


    If you think for the good of your country, you can marry an acari where what makes you king has holy prayers. Everyone would think so, but Tiara Rose thinks this is fine.


    - Master Akali likes Haltnights for some reason.


    Halt Knights likes acari, which is heroin, so no problem. For Lapis Lazuli, this combination is actually the best.


    Olivia, who knows that, is also nodding.


    "Lord Akali and His Highness Haltnights are getting along very well. So there''s nothing wrong with that."


    "Well, I was"


    "Then you can rest assured."


    Listening to Olivia, Lucia and Christina are relieved.


    Lapis Lazuli is the home country of Tiara Rose, so it is the general thrust of the country to want it to be peaceful. As a good neighbour bound by trust, we will probably continue to notice good relations.


    "Why don''t you let me talk to you about the wedding? Tiara Rose''s ceremony was very nice."


    "Thanks. I''m gonna have fun."


    Nodding at Lucia''s words, Christina now turns her attention to Tiara Rose''s fingers.


    "Is that a gift from His Highness Aquasteed?


    "This is..."


    Tiara Rose''s fingers are fitted with three rings.


    A wedding ring given by Aquasteed and a starry sky ring created by Aquasteed himself as king.


    Of Pearl, the fairy king of the sea, the ring of the sea.


    "Yes, Your Highness Aquasteed created it for me."


    "Well...... nice!


    Slowly stroke the ring, Tiara Rose nods. When it comes to the ring of the sea, I say that it is a favorite prepared by myself because it cannot be done very publicly.


    Lucia and Christina stare at Tiara Rose''s ring enviously with her lucid eyes that one day she too......


    "Since you needed Master Tiara Rose, Marine Forest has changed, too. More confectionery stores, and more gorgeous dress designs. Above all, the fairy of the forest blessed Tiara Rose, so nature has increased its radiance."


    Crop yields are increasing and the lives of the people are becoming richer.


    Listen to Christina and Olivia agrees with that.


    "As the number of sweet shops increases, so do the number of children looking for pastry chefs. Maybe we could have a sweet festival someday."


    "Dear Olivia, that would be nice......!


    If so, Tiara Rose shines her eyes when she may be able to open the supposedly old sweet tournament.


    That seemed the same for Lucia and Christina, "We''ll definitely hold it sometime," the tea party thrilled a lot.

 62 2. Ring resonance

    "Oh dear Tiara Rose... what is wrong with you?


    "Filine. No, it''s nothing."


    Filine and the maids who prepare to head to the wedding of Acari and Haltonites. Tiara Rose watching it but felt strange discomfort in her fingers.


    - Something wrong with the ring?


    My left hand pharmacopoeia.


    The "ring of the starry sky" Aquasteed gave to Tiara Rose seemed slightly glowing. And I get that feeling, like I''m looking for something.


    If it''s just a ring, I don''t care that much with Tiara Rose. I wonder if the gem reflected into the light, and that''s it. But this ring is not a good substitute for getting rid of it.


    As Tiara Rose stared at the ring, Filine asked, "Do you miss it?" Ask.


    "It''s been almost two years since you last came home from Lapis Lazuli. It was kind of a short while..."


    "Right. I''m only staying at my parents'' house for a day, so I''d like to talk to your father and mother a lot."


    "Yes."


    After that, we must also check whether a new confectionery shop is in place. If new sweets had been made, would it be possible to eat them all... what a thought.


    "Speaking of which, Mr. Acari''s position seems a lot more stable."


    When Tiara Rose tells her it was good, Filine gets a muffled look.


    - Oh, I was still mad.


    Akali has previously snuck into Tiara Rose''s bedroom to get Aquasteed and caused injuries.


    I don''t care about Tiara Rose herself already, but Philine still doesn''t feel comfortable. Halt Knights badly slammed his engagement into Tiara Rose.


    "Now, of course, we know that Tiara Rose and Akali are close. But Akali scratched Tiara Rose''s face!? Even though it disappeared beautifully, it was terrible."


    "Yeah, yeah."


    "And Master Halt Knights, how well you invited Tiara Rose, your ex-fianc¨¦, to your own wedding!


    "It''s just a neighbor I''m being kind to..."


    When he''s angry just thinking back, Filine bites off the handkerchief he took out.


    "Well, let''s have some tea and settle down, shall we? I have recently bought honey, and I have scones with me."


    "Dear Tiara Rose... Yes, I will be ready in a moment"


    "Philine''s share, too. Shall we have tea together today?


    "Thank you"


    If Tiara Rose smiles because it''s also important to calm down, Philine also laughs out of her shoulders.


    A bite-sized scone has a fragrant smell of baking.


    Cream cheese on accompanying honey and jam are all things Tiara Rose likes to eat these days.


    "Speaking of which, Philine, we''ve had more new ornaments lately, haven''t we?


    "Yes, many hair decorations and brooches with matching designs are brought in so that Dear Tiara Rose''s ring looks beautiful"


    "It was..."


    The dress worn by Tiara Rose was also decorated with a jewel with a chest line similar in design to the ring. Though I admire you for watching so closely, I''m purely happy about that.


    "This is also a testament to Tiara Rose''s popular support."


    "Yes."


    I am very pleased with the fact that I am accepted by Marine Forest. He wants to do something more for this country, I think so.


    Filine seems proud and makes me look happier than I am.


    Tiara Rose thought you were blessed with everything, both for the marriage and for the samurai.


    "So I''m sure it was for this reason that I and Master Haltnights broke up. Oh, my God, I''m trying to think so now."


    "For this reason...... sure, that''s right. Master Tiara Rose is the most adorable person to be with His Highness Aquasteed."


    "Already. But thank you, Philine"


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    That''s as the ring''s name suggests, as if it were a star.


    Chickatika and the rings of the starry sky glowed.


    "I knew it wasn''t my fault"


    As Tiara Rose was reading in her private room, the ring glowed clearly flashing. Like the other day, that? Glowed? It''s not like that.


    - Is there anything on this ring?


    It''s like asking for something, appealing, it doesn''t even look like such a reaction.


    "Does Master Aqua know anything about the ring?


    If there''s anything on the ring, I was wondering if you could tell Aquasteed, but apparently that''s not true either.


    Though I didn''t think it was anything I particularly cared about - I think I might want to talk to you about it once.


    Speaking of the person...... I called it a break for a little while and now I''m in a dream with Tiara Rose''s knee on my pillow.


    Afternoon break time while sitting on your own couch.


    "... sleeping face, cute"


    I watch it every day, but I never get tired of it.


    Gently stroke your comfortable sleeping face and turn the book one page.


    "Read the book looking at Master Aqua''s sleeping face, up to the sweets"


    Aquasteed on the knee.


    Read a book as you sink into a relaxed sofa. Tea and macaroons are placed on the side table just next to each other.


    Exactly, a time of happiness would be this.


    Tiara Rose finds herself in this situation so much that she thinks she might be too extravagant to be punished.


    Recently, Aquasteed has been busy on the job.


    I''m leaving the country to attend Akali and Haltnites weddings, so I''m in the middle of doing quite a bit of work upfront.


    For that reason, it''s late to go home here these days. There were several times when Tiara Rose fell asleep at night without being able to town, and it was morning when she realized... oh my god.


    - I can''t believe you fell asleep first, even though you''re my wife!


    I think so, a lot.


    But Aquasteed says you can sleep first. Philine, too, can''t resist because staying up late is bad for beauty and because she brings Tiara Rose to bed.


    I apologize for giving such aquasteeds further troubles.


    I drop my gaze on the ring and wonder what''s wrong.


    Or so, if you keep your mouth shut, you''ll definitely be scolded later.


    "When Master Aqua wakes up, let''s just tell him that the ring glows occasionally"


    It''s not sneaky to force you to wake up where you''re tired. He said he still has a butler after this, so he looks busy for a while.


    So now, I just want you to get some rest.


    With that in mind, Tiara Rose gently fingers Aquasteed''s hair. Then Aquasteed''s eyebrows moved and his eyes opened.


    "Oh, did I wake you...?


    "No. Something, coming"


    "Huh?"


    Aquasteed wakes her body, even though she looks a little sleepy.


    Tiara Rose wonders what the hell it means to miss the warmth of a knee walking away - but soon, the answer came.


    There was a gleam in front of me, and a single letter danced.


    "Wow."


    When I accidentally received it, it was written ''To Dear Tiara'' in adorable letters.


    Soon I find out that''s the word for the acari, and Tiara Rose laughs unexpectedly. Aquasteed, watching, groans "I knew it" and returns to Tiara Rose''s lap again.


    "Tiara and Miss Acari are really close..."


    "Right, especially these days"


    "If I get in contact with Tiara so easily, I''m going to be jealous"


    Though bitterly smiling at the stubborn narrative, Tiara Rose opens the letter.


    What the hell kind of letter is this at such an important time near a wedding? A peek into the text reveals a brief greeting written in the letters of this world. And the happy content that I look forward to the wedding.


    "What''s it say?


    "Master Akali says he''s swinging Halt Knights and getting ready for a grand. Looking forward to your wedding day."


    "Right...... Halt Knights is tough too. Something''s going to get messed up that day."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Aquasteed says you''re going to be tired before you go.


    While I do agree with that, I look at the bottom of the letter''s text - as always, the text written in Japanese.


    - I wonder what the hell happened this time.


    I wonder if he even found it in a secret passage in the royal castle of Lapis Lazuli.


    There it only said, ''I made a big discovery!! Let''s solve the mystery together''. As usual, it''s an acari-based message, and it doesn''t say what the hell kind of big discovery you made.


    This, then, Tiara Rose doesn''t know what to do.


    It doesn''t even say that we want to figure out the mystery together, so extend our stay... But I wonder if that might have happened because greedy for the maiden game she told me it was a big discovery.


    Mum thinking about it, Aquasteed reaches out and strokes Tiara Rose''s cheek, "What''s wrong?"


    "Oh, no...... I thought it sounded like a letter from Akali. He said he made a big discovery, but it doesn''t say anything at all."


    "Sure sounds like Miss Acari. I don''t really want you to get my tiara involved."


    Aquasteed tells him, as a joke, that Tiara may be reduced.


    "Don''t worry, it won''t decrease"


    "I know. But in Lapis Lazuli, we also go to Tiara''s home. It''s Miss Acari''s wedding, so we can''t make that much time for each other, can we?


    "That''s right..."


    Acari, the lead actor in the wedding, won''t even be able to play around before or after the ceremony. He doesn''t seem to mind at all, but it''s not strange to have a hole in Haltnights'' stomach.


    Well, maybe it''s a good idea to have a hard time here... and Tiara Rose thinks.


    However, Akali''s personality is well understood by Aquasteed as well.


    Aquasteed sighed now that something was going to go wrong, even if maybe not.

 63 3. Small visitors

    Aquasteed drops him off at the errand, and Tiara Rose finishes the assignment. I don''t think you had any plans for today in particular, let''s even make a sweet map of the city... what a thought comes to mind.


    Out on your own balcony, overlooking the royal castle gardens and city. This moment is Tiara Rose''s favorite when the sea reflects the morning sun and looks glittering.


    Lately, the city has become much more gorgeous. There are more decorations using flowers, and more cute exterior cafes.


    "I wish the sweets were more widespread"


    Oh, my God, I''m greedy.


    And, uh, speaking of which, I recall you hadn''t talked to Aquasteed about the ring. I forgot to tell her that I was going to be too busy and that there wasn''t that much change.


    I stare at a ring with a jewel that shines like a night sky, stuck in my left hand.


    There was no discomfort that bothered me then, and I wonder what the hell it was. When it comes to common developments in games, rings can be keys to opening doors, proof of identity, magical items, and then...


    "... Could you be telling me where Master Aqua is?


    After all, this ring was made by Aquasteed himself. Wouldn''t it be possible to have such a feature... I don''t know what to think.


    But then, I might not feel very good about it, like GPS.


    "It''s not very easy to get in touch, so it''s convenient when it comes to convenience."


    You can use magic to get in touch, contact magic falls into one difficult category or another. So of course I can''t use Tiara Rose, who doesn''t like magic.


    Akali, who sends letters, or Elliot, who is near Aquasteed''s side, can use them.


    When I was thinking about that while looking at the ring, the light in the gem began to grow bigger or smaller.


    "Huh?"


    And at the same time, it feels like the ring is being pulled by something.


    Aquasteed ahead? Think so. But what the ring indicates is ahead - apparently, the royal castle gardens.


    Aquasteed, who works in the office, should be in the castle. It''s not in the right position, so I wonder what the hell you''re showing...


    "But you should go."


    If the place were a royal castle garden, nothing would go wrong.


    Maybe it''s an event of the game or a hidden item... something like that. Tiara Rose thinks we just need to see how it goes and report it to Aquasteed if anything.


    If you decide so, goodness hurries.


    Tiara Rose calls Filine and tells her she wants to take a walk in the garden. The escort always has Tarmo on it.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, it''s still a little chilly in the morning, so take this one."


    "Thanks"


    Tiara Rose came all the way to the garden as she greeted the working maids busily. The roses and tiara rose flowers left in the morning dew bloom beautifully, making me feel luxurious in the morning.


    It is named a walk, so I walk in the direction of the ring under the guise of the wind watching the flowers.


    - Where the hell is it?


    I don''t usually go to the back of the garden. So Tiara Rose doesn''t really know how deep this garden is either.


    Probably Tarmo, if you know.


    Seeing Tiara Rose walk deeper than usual, Filine asks, "How far are we going?" and speak up.


    "I''d like to go a little deeper, okay?


    "I don''t mind that, of course...... Talmo, is the garden going on all the time ahead?


    Filine asks Tarmo what Tiara Rose also wondered. Nodding immediately, Tarmo indicates affirmation.


    "Ahead, there is a fountain. There are flowers all around and they are very beautiful. But I think walking takes about twenty minutes."


    "This garden is bigger than I thought it would be."


    Filine says to impress, and Tiara Rose agrees.


    - Maybe the fountain is an event spot or something.


    Although I may be referring to a different place, I would also like to see it if it is a beautiful fountain.


    "Walking is no problem, let''s go, Philine"


    If you tell him you''d love to see it, "Of course," Philine laughs with pleasure. Just like Tiara Rose, Philine seems relieved to want to see it.


    Love the flowers in the garden and head to the fountain to see where the ring leads. Fortunately, the directions still seemed consistent.


    At the end of the rose arch, there is a fountain. Tiara Rose''s chest bounces to Tarmo''s voice, who says, "It''s right there".


    "This is the fountain. - Huh?


    Beyond the arch, Tiara Rose, most eyed by the fountain, stops unexpectedly in agitation.


    The fountain, about five meters in diameter, was black and cloudy. There are beautiful flowers around it, so this sight is nothing but heterogeneous.


    - The ring looks like it was referring to this fountain after all.


    quicker than you can think of what that means, "Step back!" Tarmo stepped forward in front of Tiara Rose.


    "What the hell is this, there''s a risk of some kind of drug mixing......!


    Tarmo in a hurry and Filine who makes you look anxious.


    But Tiara Rose, on the contrary, calms down. Usually a beautiful fountain led itself with the help of a ring for some help - I thought.


    As I watched Tarmo observe the fountain, fu... I saw Kopokopo and bubbles in the center part of the fountain. Tarmo seems to be looking at water quality, and he hasn''t noticed that yet.


    Tiara Rose glances over and stares at what the hell it is. Then the bubble grew bigger and bigger.


    "- Huh!?"


    To its sound, Tarmo and Filine also see the center of the fountain.


    A single animal reveals itself with a shaver. It was an instant that I thought what was going on, and I immediately understood that the animal was drowning.


    When Tiara Rose leaves one step ahead, Filine stops right away.


    "Stay away, it''s dangerous! Fountain water could also be poisonous and harmful!


    Never touch it, Philine gives a sad voice.


    "But if you don''t help, you could drown and die!


    "That''s why Master Tiara Rose doesn''t need help"


    "... Huh!


    But I can''t even tell you to help by letting Tarmo jump into a fountain that might be poisoned.


    I don''t even want to kill an animal. There are no long sticks around this garden that can be grabbed.


    Tiara Rose blushes her lips and wonders if she can somehow help with the power of the protection of the Fairy King of the Sea - haha.


    If you realize it, you''re quick to judge from it.


    In an attempt to jump into the fountain, he captures Tarmo in sight with his hand on the sword he had.


    "Tarmo!"


    "Yes."


    "Back off. I won''t allow you to jump in."


    ¨D¨D!?


    Tiara Rose, who deposited the stall that was wrapped around her shoulder with Filine, ran straight into the fountain.


    "Dear Tiara Rose!?"


    Hearing Philine''s sad cry, Tiara Rose swims beneath the drowning animal without worrying. Immediately hugging the animal, Tiara Rose looks back toward Tarmo and Filine.


    "Oh my God...! Talmo, please help Master Tiara Rose quickly!!"


    If he drowned, Filine bursts into Tarmo in tears. But it was Tiara Rose herself who was supposed to have jumped in.


    "It''s okay," he says as he swims, reaching the shore where the two of us are.


    "What are you going to do now, Master Tiara Rose!


    "Oh, don''t touch me, Philine"


    Reach right out and control Filine and Tarmo trying to pull Tiara Rose up from the fountain.


    Flush wet hair back into the water, sucking water and putting your face on the heavier dress.


    "You better not touch this water."


    "But Master Tiara Rose is touching it... Huh!


    "I am fine because I have the protection of the Fairy King of the Sea. Because if it is liquid, it will disable any poison"


    The pinky ring Tiara Rose wears to her left pinky finger is the ring of the Fairy King of the Sea. As I told you earlier, any poison, if liquid, is deactivated and protects the owner.


    Even if a meal is poisoned, it won''t do any good for Tiara Rose.


    Therefore, he took control of Tarmo and jumped himself into the fountain.


    In this, Tiara Rose is the only one who can enter an unknown fountain of unknown condition and remain intact. Explaining that to both of us doesn''t erase Filine''s sad eyes.


    "It''s not a question of the poison not working......! No more such impotence!


    "That''s right. Even if it''s poisonous, it''s not Tiara Rose who''s responsible for jumping in."


    "... oh, sorry"


    Because I''m fine - and Tiara Rose thought about it, but it still didn''t seem like such an easy issue for the two of us.


    "In the meantime, let''s clean the dirty dress..."


    "... thank you, Philine"


    Using the magic of water, Philine removes the dirt on Tiara Rose. Filine, who is protected by sea fairies, is good at magic about water. It mainly helps by cleaning indoors, etc.


    However, I can''t even dry it, so I need to hurry back to my room.


    When equally helpful animals were cleansed with water, black haired, whole horned mysterious animals appeared. It''s about the size of a cat and looks just the right size when you hug it.


    also mundane hair looks very soft, its figure is like a pomeranian covered with hair all over its body.


    "... an animal you''ve never seen?


    "Right......"


    Tiara Rose wipes the water gently with a stall and takes a serious look. The first look I see brings to mind the idea that it could possibly be a kind of fairy.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, please return to your room for now. I''ll keep the animal."


    "Right. Ask Tarmo. - Come on!


    Trying to give the animal to Tarmo, he starts rushing and rumbling. I got out of Tiara Rose''s arm and ran into the rose bush as I glanced at this one.


    Tarmo tries to chase the bushes right away, but he doesn''t look like an animal anymore.


    "... the search will be conducted in the Knights. Let''s go back."


    Tiara Rose''s body is more important now.


    That monstrous fountain of color, the unobtrusive animal that was there. There is no doubt that something is going on.


    "Okay. I''m sorry, because you weakened the power I hold."


    "It''s not Master Tiara Rose''s fault, so don''t worry about it. Let''s warm up now."


    Tarmo, an escort, can''t leave Tiara Rose behind to chase animals. The first step is to get back to your room and move Tiara Rose to a safe place.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Tiara!"


    "Dear Aqua..."


    When Tiara Rose finished her bath, Aquasteed waited in her room looking worried. Tell him immediately, "I''m glad he''s safe," and hug Tiara Rose.


    "I''m sorry to bother you. I have no problem with Pearl''s ring."


    "Not at all...... In the future, don''t be so impotent with a ring. When I heard the report from Tarmo, I thought my heart would stop."


    If you don''t keep any number of hearts, Aquasteed breathes.


    Let Tiara Rose sit on the couch and give her warm tea. Though I took a bath, I can''t feel at ease with Aquasteed unless you stay calm for a while.


    Prepare cookies with me, and sit next to Aquasteed.


    "Speaking of which, did you find that animal...?


    "No, not yet. Tarmo is taking command and looking for the premises, but it is also likely that he has left the royal castle"


    "There''s a mountain behind you."


    Maybe that''s where it came from.


    We''ll do a search for a few days, but if we still can''t find it, we''ll end up making the decision that we''re not inside the royal castle. But the water in the fountain was more of a problem than that.


    "Within the royal castle, nothing like that has ever happened before. There are many knights, and it''s hard to think of suspicious characters in there."


    The investigation is underway, so we''ll be able to find out what caused it in the near future, Aquasteed says.


    So Tiara Rose is told to keep her company until the problem is solved.


    "I won''t stand in your way either... oh?


    "Hmm?"


    Feeling his gaze on the lid, Tiara Rose looks at the window.


    There was an animal there that I helped in the fountain earlier - staring at Tiara Rose.

 64 4. Adorable Customer

    also a mundane black hair with a slightly grown horn somewhere cute. He seems to be wearing accessories around his neck, somewhere stylish.


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed nail to that figure who doesn''t know if it''s safe to say animal.


    Is it a fairy? But can it actually be a horrible organism because the horns are growing? Think about that, but immediately reconsider that you can''t possibly look adorable.


    "That''s the animal Tiara helped...?


    "That''s right. Good, you look good."


    Tiara Rose is relieved because she was worried that she would be weakened by the water. Instead of calling the window immediately, try to open it and invite it in - it can be stopped by Aquasteed.


    "Tiara, it''s not dangerous. There''s no guarantee, so don''t take it personally."


    Aquasteed pulls Tiara Rose''s hand as she says she will be worried. And Aquasteed opens the window and invites the animal in.


    Tiara Rose worried that she might escape again, but the animal came so indoors without warning of anything.


    "I''ve never seen it before, but is it a fairy?


    "Me too, I''ve never seen an animal like this. I''m sure it''s not a normal animal, but when they say if it''s a fairy... I don''t know"


    "You''re a strange girl."


    Look at the animal as Aquasteed would be wary, but there''s no way he''s attacking or trying to do something. And while I''m relieved, I tell him to stay away from Tiara Rose.


    But the question of what this animal is soon disappears. This, by the animal itself.


    "Aquasteed, Tiara Rose, I want your help!


    "-! The animal talked...!?"


    The crushed eyes moisten a little, but no tears. Eyes with such strength stare firmly at Tiara Rose and Aquasteed.


    ''If you stay like this, Ferres becomes something that''s not good. I want to stop it...... would you please help me?


    "His Royal Highness Ferres?


    Tiara Rose is surprised by the name of someone she doesn''t even think of.


    Ferres Marin Forest.


    It is the first king in the basement of this royal castle, sealed and present among kings in a state of ghosts.


    The person who helped Aquasteed when he created the Star Sky Ring.


    - How does this animal relate to His Highness Ferres?


    There were no such animals in that place. The same was true of Aquasteed, who told him in a quiet voice, "Who is it?"


    The animal took a step back and lowered his head with a pepper before naming his name.


    "I, Lilliage Marine Forest. Please call me Lilia. ''


    "... royalty?


    Only royalty can name Marine Forest.


    I heard the name that was told, but I had never heard such a name, even in the royal family of history. If it were possible, it would be the Lady of Ferres, who has no official record.


    Aquasteed''s predictions seemed to have been met, and Lilliage told him he was "his wife".


    I didn''t know it was Her Royal Highness.


    ''No. Tiara Rose, thank you for helping me''


    ''It''s okay,'' Lilliage laughs to Tiara Rose, who immediately knelt down and thanked her. The next time I see Aquasteed kneeling in the same way, I go on with the words a little worried.


    "Is Aquasteed ill or not? Now that my power as king is starting to wake up, I think it''s hard to have more magic and control. ''


    "I feel more magic, but no malaise, etc. Thank you for your attention."


    ''Yes... I''m glad''


    I''m relieved to see the kind looking Lilliage and find that Tiara Rose is not a dangerous animal. But at the same time, I wonder why she, the Queen of Ferres, is here like that.


    The times you two have lived in, long ago. Like Ferres, Tiararose wonders if Lilliage remains in this world as a ghost or close to it.


    I want to help Ferres, but so maybe the result of trying to move somehow is that...


    - I love His Highness Ferres.


    Just as I think of Aquasteed. Perhaps it was also the presence of Lilliage that the ring wanted to convey.


    Then Tiara Rose decides on her heart to help Ferres and Lilliage.


    ''Oh?''


    To the lid, Lilliage turns her gaze to the table and gives her voice.


    ''What would that be?... very cute''


    "It''s a sweet treat, called cookies. Do you want to eat it?


    ''I want to try it!!''


    Icing cookies that mimic flowers look so gorgeous.


    Previously, there were only some cookies that were just baked, but as a result of Tiara Rose''s creation and spread the word, the castle cook could also make them.


    Tiara Rose held Lilliage up and sat in her chair, handing her an icing cookie.


    Lilliage, who received it with a fluttering hand, indulged in cuteness with his eyes before putting it into his mouth.


    ''Hawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawawa


    "Glad you''re happy"


    "Women like sweets all the time."


    Aquasteed smiles when she sees Tiara Rose and Lilliage eating cookies happily.


    And then, I notice a little dirt on my Tiara Rose dress. Where the hell do you think it is, and I immediately realize that Lilliage is the cause.


    "Tiara"


    "Yes?"


    "For one thing, let me give my support to Master Lilliage. I''m sure you''re tired too."


    ''! Yes, I did, I... I''m sorry. I was outside, so I''d be glad to have a bath.''


    Nodding at the words of Aquasteed and Lilliage, Tiara Rose put hot water in the tub provided for her room, "You''ll have a bath ready," she said.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    While Tiara Rose and Lilliage are in the bath, Aquasteed instructs Elliot that the search for the animal is over.


    Immediately returned to routine work, but Aquasteed had more to do.


    Call Elliot and Filine and also tell them that changes may be made to future schedules.


    Along with that, I''ll also tell Philine and Elliot about Lilliage. It would be a lot smoother to move just because the two of you who are close are grasping it.


    "Are you the queen of His Highness Ferres..."


    "Oh. I and Tiara can''t be absent from the wedding. Worst of all, Elliot will be asked to stay in Marine Forest and deal with Master Lilliage."


    "... well, that''s something you can''t do other than me"


    Filine goes with Tiara Rose, but gives instructions to get the room ready for Lilliage to be comfortable.


    "Depending on what Tiara Rose thinks, it may be safer to use Tiara Rose''s room than to have a new one"


    "Right. Let''s check it out."


    I don''t care, Lilliage''s identity is the identity.


    I want to avoid situations where someone else can find me.


    As Aquasteed conceived what to do, Tiara Rose and Lilliage turned up after the bath. Tiara Rose, who was bathing earlier, just had to take care of Lilliage and change her dress.


    Lilliage''s black hair is fluffy and she has a cute ribbon on the back of her neck.


    "Dear Aqua! And you have Philine and Elliot, just fine."


    "Yeah?"


    "Master Lilia told me that the tomb of His Highness Ferres'' parents... is apparently in Lapis Lazuli. Is it okay to bring Lady Acari''s wedding, Lady Lilia?


    According to Lilliage, the tomb is buried together with powerful items that my parents, who were royal, had.


    It means that if we can get that, Ferres'' power will be more stable than it is now.


    ''Though, Ferres wasn''t very close to his parents. I''d like to sneak up on it. "


    "Right...... Then let''s schedule it so we can stop there."


    "Thanks, Aquasteed"


    To the fluttering, smiling Lilliage, Aquasteed asks if he can widen the map and find out more about it. Lilliage rides up to the table with her little body, looks at the map and tilts her neck.


    ''... I''m sorry, I don''t know where it is. Probably near the castle.''


    "No, I have nothing to apologize for. Maybe an old map would be better. Elliot."


    "Yes, get ready immediately"


    Elliot leaves the room to pick up an old map to keep in the Knights.


    Filine prepared tea and macarons so Elliot could slow down until he returned. I knew Lilliage would shine her eyes and nail her macarons, so Philine laughs small that it looks like there are two Tiara Roses.


    As Lilliage was eating macarons obsessively, Elliot with the map returned. Spread it right on the plane, but there is no royal castle in the Lapis Lazuli kingdom there.


    Yes, this is still a map before Lapis Lazuli was founded. But in the times Lilliage has spent, this should be the closest map.


    ''I''m sorry, I don''t know.... I just don''t think it''s that far from Marine Forest''


    "Okay. If it was a royal tomb, there should probably be some trace of it. Elliot, do your research one step ahead."


    "Yes, sir."


    Exactly, because of other countries, there can be no major searches, and it''s not a case of cracking down on personnel. It was the day to leave for the Lapis Lazuli kingdom, thinking that maybe it would take quite some time - without getting any information.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Inside the luxurious carriage, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. Then, Lilliage.


    Exactly no such animal or fairy has ever been precedented, so while on the move, Tiara Rose is somehow deluded by pretending to be a doll she likes.


    Now he runs into the country of Marine Forest for the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli.


    ''Wow, the sea is beautiful. Besides, I''ve never been to another country before because I''ve been in Marine Forest!


    So I''m so excited, Lilliage tells me she''s happy.


    I''m obsessed with the view outside, mumbling the Run nose song.


    "I''m glad you''re happy for Master Lilia, Master Aqua"


    "Oh. I''m glad you said you like your country after all these years"


    Perhaps Marine Forest, where Lilliage has lived, was more natural and beautiful than it is now. Still, Lilliage tells me she loves Marine Forest now too.


    Cute and delicious treats that never used to be. Beautiful streets, smiling people. ''Thank you for taking care of this country'' - Lilliage, who told me so, seemed really happy.


    As a royalty, I am more than happy to say a word to Aquasteed, who has built this country.


    "A lot more, I''d like you to see Marine Forest"


    "Right."


    The three of us enjoyed the journey between the bundles, taking our time to see the scenery.

 65 5. To the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli

    The carriage journey went well and the Tiara Roses made it to the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli safely.


    First go to the royal castle and say hello.


    "Wow... I miss you"


    Escorted by Aquasteed, Tiara Rose gets off the carriage.


    Tiara Rose looked up at the beautiful Royal Castle of Lapis Lazuli as she felt the sun shine to welcome her.


    In a pale blue building, a staircase leading inside. The knights line up on both sides, and the acari rush down delightfully between them.


    "Dear Tiara! Welcome!


    "Dear Acari,"


    "You''re as good as ever..."


    Tiara Rose waves toward the acari, even as she is harassed if she doesn''t fall. "It''s been a while," Tiara Rose grins, too.


    Beautiful black hair and eyes. Adorable face and trendy dress with ribbon. This is the heroine of the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, which deals with holy prayers.


    "Miss Acari, you look well and most importantly. Congratulations on your marriage to Prince Haltnites."


    "Congratulations, Dear Acari. I''m so happy to be able to attend the ceremony."


    "Dear Aqua, Dear Tiara, Thank you. I, too, am very excited about the ceremony. Take your time."


    After a brief greeting, Akali will guide you to your room "This way".


    "I prepared a lot of delicious treats! Dear Tiara, Olivia has already arrived here, so we''ll have a girls'' party at night!


    "Eh."


    It''s the first time I''ve ever heard of a sorority. I wonder what Tiara Rose will do, but if Olivia is there, I think it would be convenient to introduce Lilliage, who is pretending to be a stuffed animal.


    Aquasteed gives up his look slightly and says, "You should like Tiara".


    "Nevertheless, don''t let me force you too much because Tiara is tired of moving the carriage all the time"


    "I know! If anything, I will heal you in holy prayer."


    "It''s not."


    Humph and proud acari, Aquasteed breathed heavily.


    Tiara Rose grins next door, too, but if you can eat sweets a little too much... I''m thinking about it, but I can''t tell Aquasteed that, not very much.


    After a short walk while we chat, we arrive in the room.


    We''re a couple, so we''re in one room at Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. Filine and Elliott were also given separate rooms to allow free time until dinner, where they had a face-to-face meeting with the royalty of Lapis Lazuli.


    The rooms provided are equipped with reception, main room, bedroom and bathroom.


    The white and sepia-based interior is calm and looks like you can stay calm during your stay in Lapis Lazuli.


    Out on the balcony you can admire the gardens where the roses bloom. While I''m amused by its beauty, I kind of miss the lack of fairies.


    - I can''t believe there''s no fairy, it was a natural sight.


    Tiara Rose is so happy with that, thinking she''s completely familiar with Marine Forest.


    "Are you tired?


    "Dear Aqua...... I''m fine. We have a lot to do now, so we need to get in the mood."


    "Right. Something about Mr. Lilliage, and can''t you afford too much time"


    When you gaze indoors from the balcony, you see a relaxed lilyage on the couch. I got motion sickness because I wasn''t used to traveling in the carriage, and I seem a little tired.


    Next to it, he keeps the room in order to make it easier for Filine to spend time.


    Elliot, who was with me until earlier, has already gone out to look for the tomb marks of Ferres'' parents indicated by Lilliage.


    Tarmo and a few knights I brought with me are just taking turns and hitting the guard in front of the room.


    "I wish I could do something too..."


    Tiara Rose, the Queen, can''t go on the investigation, so she has to make love in her room. Besides, we also need people who work as royalty and take care of the liriage.


    "Let''s leave it to Elliot now. Tiara''s gonna be ready for dinner, right? I''m going to go through the literature in the library, so be nice."


    Because she is the first queen, Aquasteed decided that it would be nice to have Tiara Rose by her side. Besides, women smile at each other all the more.


    "... Yes. Thank you, Master Aqua."


    Dropping off Aquasteed going to the library, Tiara Rose prepares hot milk and meringue confectionery with honey for Lilliage.


    "It''s warm, it''s sweet"


    "I drink when I''m tired too."


    ''That''s right. Sure, this is going to blow my fatigue''


    While stroking Lilliage''s back, I wonder if I should let Akari heal with the power of holy prayer. Lilliage sips hot milk and breathes a howl. I was a little relieved that my expression seemed to be calming down more than earlier.


    When you put the meringue sweets in your mouth as well, Lilliage makes your face shine all the time.


    "Tiara''s treats all make you delicious and happy"


    "Glad you''re happy"


    No more of the loose ends up earlier, and Lilliage was eating sweets fine.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    At night, Tiara Rose dresses up for dinner.


    The Empire line dress overlays the ribbon and lace, and the neck is accompanied by flower ornaments using ribbons of the same material. Fluffy and soft honey pink hair suits the water color of the dress well.


    Escorting a tiara rose like that is an outfit aquasteed.


    Fabric with thin grey lines on black ground with gold edges. The tied tie is aligned with the bow on Tiara Rose''s neck.


    Upon entering the dining room of the dinner party, the royalty of Lapis Lazuli was already in place.


    I greeted him first on behalf of Alexander Lapislazuli Lactomut, king of Lapislazuli. He is the father of Haltnites and the one who stripped him of his throne.


    "Welcome there. It''s been a long time since I''ve seen you two. You look fine, I''m relieved. Would you be tired on the road? I''ve prepared a meal, so I want you to take your time."


    "Thank you. Your Majesty doesn''t seem to change, more importantly."


    Aquasteed and Alexander exchange hands and Tiara Rose also exchange hands.


    "You''ve become more and more beautiful while you haven''t seen it, Miss Tiara Rose. If Schnaus sees it, he''ll cry and be moved."


    "Please don''t, Your Majesty..."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly if she can''t laugh because she''s going to really cry and be moved.


    Then the queen greets her and soon comes forward as Akali claims herself.


    Slightly dark pink dress with white stripes and ribbon. With a smile, he said, "Have you had a good, hypnotic sleep? It''s a long night!" What an unforgiving thing to say.


    "Acari, don''t talk too much about troubling your guests"


    "Dear Halt Knights!


    Hartnights Lapislazuli Lactmoot, former fianc¨¦ of Tiara Rose and married partner of Akari. With beautiful golden hair and blue eyes, it''s the main target of this game.


    "... Long time no see, Prince Aquasteed. Then, Tiara...... Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Oh, it''s been a while."


    "Long time no see, Your Highness."


    A tense air flows, just words of greeting and nothing lasts since then. A bright voice goes into my ear when Tiara Rose is worried that I should say something that cares about me.


    "Sister Tiara, it''s been a long time!


    "Yikes! Prince Sirius!"


    "Has it been three years since I''ve seen you like this? I was so excited about this day!


    It was his brother and second prince, Sirius Lapislazuli Lactomut, the number one successor to the throne, who jumped out from behind Haltonites.


    I hug Tiara Rose all the time and am very happy to see her for a long time.


    So much so that when you look at a beautiful, neat face while still ten years old, you mistake it for a seemingly beautiful girl. Sirius, who laughs innocently, has clear, empty eyes in her golden hair that is only slightly lighter in pigment than Haltonites.


    "It''s been a long time, Your Highness. It was very growing and surprising."


    "But I haven''t caught up with Sister Tiara''s height yet..."


    "My height will be over in no time."


    So tell him to rest assured, Tiara Rose stroked Sirius'' head.


    Alexander laughs bitterly as he sees how it goes.


    "Not at all...... Sirius is very excited to meet Miss Tiara Rose. I want you to be more calm as far as I''m concerned, because I''m going to be the next king."


    "No, I don''t mind. I''m so glad I don''t have a brother."


    Besides, despite the dinner party, this place is close to the inner circle. Usually Tiara Rose also knows that Sirius is solid, so she smiles that it''s no problem.


    "Dear Tiara and Sirius, we were close, weren''t we? I didn''t know."


    "I was surprised, too"


    Akali put his hand on his mouth and surprised him greatly, and Aquasteed agreed with it.


    "That''s right," Tiara Rose nodded as she looked at the two of them.


    "I had many opportunities to talk to Prince Sirius at a tea party with the queen."


    "Oh, I see"


    The young prince said she was attending her mother''s tea party together. He called me a sister and admired Tiara Rose because she was his own brother, Haltnights'' fianc¨¦e.


    - Oh, but you''re not my sister anymore.


    Halt Knights and I broke up our engagement and married under Aquasteed. Sirius himself cut it out when he thought it might not be a good idea to let him call him his sister as he was.


    But you''re not my sister anymore.


    I miss you, Sirius tells me.


    Tiara Rose unwittingly wants to tell her sister she''s fine with the trick the adorable boy shows her, but she endures much more.


    "... Huh!


    But at the same time, Halt Knights stifled his body. If I hadn''t broken my engagement, Tiara Rose would have been Sirius'' sister-in-law.


    Alexander opens his mouth first when he is confused that Halt Knights should say something.


    "Sirius, you''ll have to greet Prince Aquasteed first"


    "Yes, I was."


    Sirius utters his apology, saying that he was happy to see Tiara Rose, and that she hadn''t.


    At the same time, he bowed his head to the acari, saying he was "insensitive".


    "It''s okay, I don''t care. Tiara is my best friend, so she''s like Prince Sirius'' sister."


    "Dear Acari..."


    Don''t say anything unsolicited, Tiara Rose laughs bitterly.


    "Isn''t it sooo fun and happy that me and Lady Tiara are your sisters? Me, my little brother as cute as Prince Sirius is always welcome! Hey, Dear Tiara."


    "Right......"


    "Isn''t it? For the girls'' party at night, and a gift to keep...... oh, this is for later fun!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Even Alexander, not just Tiara Rose, laughs bitterly at the acari that doesn''t seem to stop talking. "You''re a healthy daughter-in-law, I''m glad," the only queen smiling is maybe more human than Akali.


    "Dear Acari, Prince Sirius cannot greet His Highness Aquasteed like this."


    "Oh, I was"


    If not, Akari held her mouth down with her hands and smiled deliberately at her cheeks.


    - But the atmosphere on the ground was brighter.


    Prince Sirius is also relieved to see how Akali is doing.


    "I''m sorry I''m late, Your Highness Aquasteed. The second prince, Sirius Lapislazuli Lactomut."


    "It''s Aquasteed Marine Forest. Not a very long stay, nice to meet you."


    "Yes."


    Shaking hands with Aquasteed, Sirius smiled happily.


    The dinner party proceeded without delay and Tiara Rose stared at the dessert lined up in front of her.


    I could see at a glance that the quality of dessert was much better than previous lapis lazuli. Acari must have made a dramatic evolution by staying in the royal castle and sharing her thoughts and opinions on the food.


    The star of dessert is chocolate.


    On a single plate, it is performed as if it were a story.


    A bite-sized chiffon cake is packed inside a chocolate ball that mimics the shape of a hemisphere.


    Honey, strawberry, blueberry and chocolate sauce at the end of the plate. And a striped chocolate ribbon with a two-color truffle chocolate with cocoa powder and sugar powder next to it.


    Marine Forest, as well as Lapis Lazuli, are putting more effort into the look of dessert.


    "What do you say, Dear Tiara! I suggested this chocolate plate."


    "Very tasty, Dear Acari"


    "Isn''t it?


    Including a bite, chocolate quickly breaks shape in your mouth.


    Milk, white, bitter and various types of chocolate. Depending on who was put out, I guess seeing that combination differs is tailoring it to my tastes.


    Aquasteed dishes are dominated by white and bitter chocolate.


    - Master Akali has done a lot for his country.


    Create a fashion for piercings and other accessories, or develop desserts. Tiara Rose is impressed by the disrespect she used to bring back to the white tower.


    - That gut, I respect it a lot.


    Akali is honest with himself and never says yes to anything he doesn''t like.


    Therefore I will not lie, but will surely do against what I said Jesus. As a result, there is a high level of trust regarding the words spoken by the acari.


    I also have a big personality, and I have restored a little bit of trust and am here now.


    "Sister Tiara, ah... sorry"


    "It''s okay, Prince Sirius. What''s the matter, sir?


    "Actually, Dear Tiara Rose, I would like a flower with your sister''s name on it, if you don''t mind."


    Can''t you? and Sirius stares at Tiara Rose.


    The Tiara Rose flowers, which became the national flower of Marine Forest, are very beautiful. This time too, I have planted it in a pot and brought it to you that it would be a souvenir.


    "Of course, Prince Sirius."


    "Thank you!


    When Tiara Rose agrees, Sirius laughs like a flower.


    "Oh, my God, I can''t believe you want flowers."


    "Brother Haltnites...... That''s why Sister Tiara will grab my love!


    What a rarity... Sirius stares at Haltonites.


    "How about your brother, too, as much as sending flowers to the woman you like?


    "Ugh."


    Speaking of which, I wish Halt Knights hadn''t done that to me... Tiara Rose laughs bitterly.


    It wasn''t even a date. Was it enough to be given jewelry and other ornaments for my birthday?


    - Dear Halt Knights, you told me to be nice...


    Thinking it''s kind of fresh to see him like this, apparently that was the same for the acari.


    Akali was looking at Haltnights and Sirius with cancer, and I think I can still hear my heart saying, ''Such a delicious scene wasn''t in the game, was it!!''.


    "Damn, don''t argue like that. Miss Tiara Rose is right in front of you..."


    "Oh, I''m sorry, Sister Tiara..."


    "Shh, I''m sorry..."


    Two people immediately apologize to Alexander for not being ugly.


    I look at Halt Knights dripping my head, and the clams shudder and laugh. Tell him that Tiara Rose doesn''t care, either, and smile.


    "Then Master Haltnights send me flowers"


    "Oh, oh! Absolutely."


    Nodding to Acari''s follow-up, Haltonites also tells Tiara Rose and Aquasteed they want flowers.


    "Of course you can. Hey, Your Highness Aquasteed."


    "Oh."


    Hearing the two replies, Halt Knights stroked his chest down as relieved as well.


    The atmosphere, which was a little too dull, is completely gone, and the voice of the chatter is brighter.


    Akali explains the dessert to Halt Nights, who sits next to him, and smiles that it will be delicious. I guess I don''t hate Halt Knights because they also say they are "too sweet" but they eat well.


    Those two seemed kind of happy, and Tiara Rose was relieved.

 66 6. Fun sorority

    As soon as Tiara Rose and Aquasteed returned to the room after the dinner party, the Akali samurai came to visit.


    Filine hits the response, but gives an unexpected surprise at the unexpected event.


    "Huh?"


    "It is a gift from Acari to His Highness Aquasteed and Tiara Rose"


    "That''s... but you just get this..."


    - What the hell are you thinking?


    Filine smiles and shows a little anger, but doesn''t put it on her face.


    A gift from Akali was a nightwear - a pajama.


    The transparent bag you can see inside is wrapped in a lovely colorful ribbon. That''s the same gift wrapping you get from an attacker in the game. Of course, though it never meant they would give away pajamas in the game.


    To the bewildered Filine, but also the Acari maid can''t pull it off because it''s an order from her husband.


    "We also said that what is so unproductive..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Oh, these samurai also have to serve a hell of a lot of women and they''re struggling... and Philine sympathizes just a little bit.


    "For once, I will receive..."


    "No, that would be very helpful..."


    Philine sighed small when she saw the Akali maids bowing their heads deeply.


    Worried about what was going on with Filine, Tiara Rose, who stepped out of the bath, said, "What''s wrong?," he called out.


    "Well, Dear Acari presents your pajamas -!!"


    - This wrapping is amazing!


    Instantly realizing it''s the same way to wrap up a game item, Tiara Rose breathes less inspiring.


    "It''s nothing," smiles Philine, surprised, and takes a sneak deep breath to calm her mind so she doesn''t notice.


    - Speaking of which, you said you had some more fun at the dinner party.


    I quickly found out that I''m sure this pajama is a surprise.


    "Dear Tiara Rose... As such, do not receive what you will wear at night..."


    "Master Akali and I are promising to have a sorority at night. I''ll take my share, but I don''t need His Highness Aquasteed''s share, so I''ll give it back."


    "Yes, sir."


    Tiara Rose gives instructions to Filine and moves to her bedroom to change.


    The Acari ladies also pulled me back a lot if they could receive one......


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The chandelier only lights a pale light and places various aromatic candles in the room.


    Cakes, macarons, cookies, madraines, chocolates¡­ and many kinds of sweets are available. The aroma and warmth of tea relaxes the body.


    The pyjamas prepared by Akari were of the long t-shirt type with lengths down to the knee. The clothes are commonly sold in Japan today, but they are not sold here.


    I think Tiara Rose feels kind of fresh.


    This place where Tiara Rose was invited is Akali''s private room.


    Gathered to have a girls'' party were Tiara Rose, Acari and Olivia. And Lilliage brought by Tiara Rose.


    We all fall asleep on a big bed and have a chat.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, Long time no see"


    "Dear Olivia! I''m so glad to see you here."


    When Tiara Rose and Olivia get a quick greeting done, Akali blinks when she looks at Tiara Rose''s embrace of Lilliage.


    "Stuffed animal... so, isn''t it?


    "Yes. I wanted to introduce you both, and I took you."


    The acari immediately said, "Who?" and lean his neck. Olivia, too, is just as inclined to her neck as she is to be an animal she has never seen.


    "It''s Liliage, call me Lilia"


    "I can''t believe I can talk... cute!!"


    "What''s going on? Animals......?


    also tense of the acari to the adorability of the pretentious lilia. I hug her all the time, and she also buries her face in a mundane way to make her happy.


    Tiara Rose panics to her too quick acari move. Although she looks like a lovely animal, Lilliage is the first queen of Marine Forest.


    "Dear Acari, please don''t! Master Lilia is not such an easy and mundane person!


    "Huh?"


    Ha-ha-ha. Look at Tiara Rose, who disturbs her breath, and then look at Lilliage. Acari and Olivia tilted their necks again at the same time, probably both of them - they weren''t in a character game like this, were they? You must think.


    "Is it a fairy?


    "Sure, that line could be thick...... that''s Olivia!


    Yeah, I look at the nodding acari, and Lilliage shakes her head ''no''.


    "I, Lilliage Marine Forest. I''m Ferres'' wife. ''


    "Eh."


    The surprising voices of Acari and Olivia overlapped the voice of Lilliage, who smiled and told her as she lit up.


    "I am the first king of Marine Forest, the queen of His Highness Ferres."


    "You know someone amazing again, Dear Tiara...!


    Hearing Tiara Rose explain, she said, "Inspiring!" and the clams shake.


    "Liar, Master Ferres was just an outside hobby!?"


    "Surprised...... but that would be nice too"


    "Right, right... good"


    Completely indispensable first king, there''s about one thing unusual about it and it''s finally normal. If that''s an outsider hobby, we just have to accept it - and Akali tells us with a serious eye.


    "Uh, um..."


    "Dear Lilia, this is also a mundane condition... something I''ve always wanted to hug"


    "Neither His Royal Highness Ferres nor His Royal Highness Lilia can resist."


    Sleepy Acari and Olivia talk accelerates rather than stays.


    "Ha! Wait, Master Olivia......! Me, I realized something amazing!


    "What have you noticed, Dear Acari?"


    "You mean the first queen... an old grandmother of Master Aqua, right? That means that Aqua is drawing extrahuman blood too!


    "Oh yeah...... Huh! But can you bear a man''s child in the form of a beast?"


    "Heh, that''s it! Often, only on full moon nights will you be human...!!"


    "hey I see!!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose hugs Lilliage as she looks slightly farther away at the two uplifting. In the first place, Tiara Rose thinks in a corner of her head that Acari''s reasoning is off the hook because it''s a full moon tonight.


    Lilliage grated, seemingly unable to keep up with the conversation between them at all: ''What''s the matter?'' And a troubled face.


    ''Uh, this is what I look like now, but I''m human, right?


    Acari and Olivia turn to Lilliage''s confession. And he looked so subtle and mixed with a little shame that he wasn''t human.


    "Neither of you should be too rude to Master Lilia..."


    "I''m sorry."


    "It was frivolous, sorry......"


    ''Never mind,'' Lilliage smiles at the soggy two.


    "But how did you get to Lapis Lazuli?


    "Oh, maybe to let me see you?


    Ask Olivia why, Akali to interpret conveniently.


    "I hear His Highness Ferres'' help is unstable..."


    "What, is that...?


    "If you leave it like this, Marine Forest is going to be in big trouble."


    For this reason, Tiara Rose tells me that Lilliage is accompanying him this time.


    "Somewhere in Lapis Lazuli, if there is an item in the tomb of His Highness Ferres'' parents, Lilia will calm down."


    ''But too much time has passed. I don''t know where the tomb is, and I don''t know if the tomb still exists. "


    Acari nodded so much that he heard the story.


    Olivia would be the best of these memories about gaming knowledge. But Akali is a person who spends time in Lapis Lazuli and lives happily ever after thinking of the present as a continuation of the game. I know this country best since the game.


    If you have any new information, you are most likely to have one of these.


    "What an amazing coincidence"


    "I wrote to Tiara, didn''t I? I sent it because I found an old grave."


    "That''s...!


    Maybe or maybe not, it''s more than likely the tomb of Ferres'' parents. Lilliage also looks at the clams with anticipation.


    "I don''t know if it''s Ferres'' parents'' tomb, but I felt the strange power¡­ I''m sure it''s an important place"


    ''I want to go, I want to go right away! Please take me, Tiara Rose!!''


    "Well, of course that''s true... but it''s just not safe at night, Master Lilia"


    We can''t go alone, so tell Tiara Rose we can''t.


    Going is not a problem in itself. Put on an escort, get ready to go.


    Aquasteed, who is recognized by Ferres as king, should also go, so I want him to wait at least until tomorrow.


    To Tiara Rose''s explanation, Lilliage nodded.


    ''I said all I could... I''m sorry''


    "No, I can''t help but hurry Master Lilia."


    "That''s right. I''ll be with you tomorrow, so be sure to get your items!


    "I''ll have Levi investigate, too."


    "Dear Tiara Rose, Acari, Olivia...... thank you"


    Pompous, tears zero out of Lilliage''s eyes.


    ''I didn''t expect you to be so kind. Dear Acari and Olivia, this is the first time I''ve seen you...''


    "No, you don''t need to cry, Master Lilia. She''s cute, so keep smiling. Now eat and grill sweets and nourish your English for tomorrow!


    ''Ha!''


    Smiling and nodding at Akari''s suggestion, Lilliage hits on Pan and Macaron.


    ''I love this sweet macaroon!


    "That''s Lilia! I love macarons, too."


    "Tiara''s not a macaroon anymore, she''s a macaroon, isn''t she?


    "... it was"


    Olivia unwittingly erupts when she hears Akali''s words, and we all laugh.


    "Hehe, I can''t believe you slept in bed and ate sweets... that''s a luxury"


    "When I was in Japan, it was a normal routine, but I wouldn''t do such bad behavior in this world."


    "Yes, yes! A samurai gets angry."


    "Please do not execute, Dear Akali..."


    Like today, we can do it because we''re paying people other than ourselves. Tiara Rose and Olivia caution that it is not a good act to do in front of a samurai.


    I immediately saw an acari who said, "I already know," and I felt a long way away that, oh yeah, it was too late for the samurai to pay attention to me already.


    "The country develops, even if it gets rich... life is its cramping, isn''t it"


    "Dear Lilia..."


    The time when Lilliage lived to speak of loneliness is now more than 1,500 years old Marine Forest. A time when there was more nature than today and fairies and humans were closer.


    Compared to now, it would undoubtedly have been freer in the old days.


    ''But... now Marine Forest is peaceful, warm, and I love it''


    "Yes, I love Marine Forest, too"


    Endorsing Lilia''s words, Acari and Olivia raise their hands and claim they love Marine Forest too.


    "! Thanks, both of you"


    Thus the Sweet Women''s Party in Acari was enjoyed until late at night.

 67 7. Forgotten Graves

    The next day, in the early hours of the morning, Lilliage woke up.


    Passing next to the Tiara Roses sleeping comfortably, Lilliage sees what''s going on out the window. The morning sun starts to rise and the leaves of the wet tree glitter in the morning dew is so beautiful.


    "This is the land where Ferres was born and raised."


    Though his eyes narrow on his eyelids, Lilliage looks far away. When I think there''s Ferres'' parents'' grave ahead of me, it makes me feel better.


    - Come on, I want to go fast.


    I think so, but Lilliage can''t do anything by herself. Without the cooperation of the Tiara Roses, we wouldn''t even know where the grave is, and without the carriage, it would take days to get there.


    ''And yet... you''re all sleeping comfortably''


    Though it''s good to get some sleep.


    Olivia sleeps with her hands on her chest and regularly in Tiara Rose, where she sleeps slightly round, in a lazy and luxuriously sleeping clam. Everyone falls asleep from the chat, but I think this way you have character in the way you sleep.


    If it''s true, Lilliage should have slept a little more too, but she wasn''t very much, but she didn''t feel that way.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    As soon as the Tiara Roses woke up, today''s schedule was put in place. The irremovable official duties were somehow packed in the morning and adjusted by Elliot to allow him to move freely from noon onwards.


    "Dear Aqua, we''re all set for this one"


    "Oh. Elliot''s arranging the carriage, too, so let''s go"


    ''Ha!!''


    Lilliage held in Tiara Rose''s arms speaks out in excitement as'' Let''s Go Fast ''.


    The members are Tiara Rose, Aquasteed, Liriage, Acari and Olivia. Then Levi, Elliot and Olivia''s butler.


    I just sat Lilliage in the carriage at the beginning, and from behind, I said, "Are you going somewhere?" and a voice.


    As Tiara Rose looked back, Halt Knights was approaching us. Aquasteed, not Tiara Rose, responded to that.


    "Tiara has been promising to go out with Miss Acari for a long time."


    "Oh, speaking of which, you used to exchange letters frequently..."


    When Halt Knights saw the clams all the time, he quickly figured out how willing he was to go out dressed. I was at a girls'' party last night, and Haltnights thinks I must have been looking forward to seeing you.


    Halt Knights laughs bitterly when he says the wedding is soon, but you''re still free.


    "I''m sorry, but give my regards to the acari.... It may not be something I could have told Prince Aquasteed."


    "No, it''s nothing. Tiara would be happy to have friends of the same sex."


    I know Halt Knights is reflecting, although the fact that Halt Knights stuck Tiara Rose has not disappeared.


    These days, rumors of Halt Knights working hard in government have also often been heard in Marine Forest.


    Talking about that, a relaxing voice reaches two ears.


    "Dear Halt Knights, Dear Aqua!


    "Acari, don''t bother me too much, okay?


    "Of course!


    Halt Knights breathes when he sees a clam that sounds fun.


    "I''ve been busy getting ready for ceremonies here lately... I hope you''re having fun today."


    "Thank you"


    That said, Halt Knights gently strokes Akali''s head. Tiara Rose, who was watching how it went, gets into the carriage relieved.


    - I was worried because it was a little too messy, but it seems okay.


    Relieved by the two good friends, is it Lilliage and Olivia''s turn next? Thinking about it just made me feel a little easier to stick around.


    I arrived about two hours by carriage from the royal castle.


    It''s a wide meadow with no building whatsoever, and at first glance it doesn''t seem like there''s a grave. Where the hell are you? and a landscape where Tiara Rose would tilt her neck.


    "This way! Come on, hurry up!


    Quickly and quickly, the acari rush out of the meadows looking very pleasant.


    "Dear Acari! Please be more supple¡­"


    "Isn''t that nice! Look, Master Tiara, hurry up!


    "Oh already..."


    Akali, who looks like she''s having fun, looks exactly like she''s coming on an adventure.... No, it''s exactly the adventure itself, but Tiara Rose wants you to think a little about who you are.


    Let''s go, Tiara.


    "Yes, Dear Lilia..."


    Did you get caught in the acari, Lilliage also runs through the meadows out of Tiara Rose''s arms. I''m probably trying to find a grave because I''m kind of looking around my gaze.


    The Tiara Roses follow the rest as they watch the acari and liriage running this way.


    "From now on, it''s going to be tough when we get to the grave."


    "Right......"


    "Tiara, please don''t move on your own."


    Aquasteed tells me not to leave my side, though.


    "Yes, of course. Dear Aqua,"


    The Tiara Roses go after the rest while agreeing to the Aquasteed as if it were out there. Olivia laughs with pleasure and says, "This is a point to check".


    I''m sure he''ll come back for another pilgrimage to the Holy Land later, Tiara Rose thinks.


    Walking down the meadow, the acari disappeared on the lid.


    "What!?"


    "Levi!"


    "Yes, Olivia"


    Contrary to the astonishing Tiara Rose, Olivia makes Levy call and confirm his name. Elliot also comes forward and takes an alert look at what happened.


    Aquasteed also takes Tiara Rose''s hand as he guards his surroundings.


    "Tiara''s behind me"


    "Dear Aqua......"


    "What the hell happened?"


    I knew I should have prepared more downstairs... thinking so, I heard the loose voice of the acari "Dear Tiara".


    "Miss Acari''s voice?


    "I''m here ~!"


    "Oh, you can also hear Master Lilia"


    Wondering what was going on with the remaining Tiara Roses, Levi, who looked it up, came back under Olivia.


    "Looks like we just went down the stairs leading down to the basement."


    "Oh... it was. Thank you, Levi."


    "If it''s for Olivia"


    Acari and Lilliage looked perfectly out of the grass on the ground to match Levi''s report.


    Haha and laughing, "It''s this way," he said with ease.


    Sigh that you said you were worried about us, but wanted me to tell you first if your grave was in the basement.


    As the Tiara Roses walk to the clams, a small entrance surrounded by grasshoppers appears. Due to the bush of grass, it doesn''t look like there''s a passage to the basement all the time.


    "Dear Akali... You''ve noticed this a lot"


    "Sure. This is hard to discover. It''s not even in the official dossier..."


    Olivia admires you as if you were the one who makes strategy books.


    Tiara Rose peeks inside the aisle, agreeing with it too. The stone staircase appears to be made with special ore, slightly bright.


    The road width is enough for each person to finally get through, and the lights are the ones that can be secured somehow, but they are not maintained.


    "I don''t know what it is, so be careful - ''Miss Acari. Don''t be too presumptuous."


    "It''s okay, Master Aqua! Because there''s probably no danger."


    Everyone sighs when they see the clams going straight in. This is compassionate ahead, because noble ladies are not the ones to take the lead.


    Immediately Elliot follows Acari, followed by Aquasteed and the Tiara Roses.


    "Master Akali is strong... you want to do everything yourself"


    "I know that, but I would have too many behavioral problems. Tiara can''t be wrong..."


    "Am I like Akali... it seems difficult"


    "That''s fine."


    Aquasteed tightens his mind that we need to be more careful ahead of it now, though I think Halt Knights is a little pathetic that would always be swinging.


    Just because Elliot and Akali made it through the aisle safely doesn''t mean there''s nothing trapping them. It would be just fine to be too cautious.


    Worry that something was at stake ended up worrying, and the underground passage was not deep enough to reach the bottom right away.


    "Here it is, Master Lilia!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With a clam in his throat or face, he said, "Do you have it?," he says.


    This place, secretly built in the basement of the meadow, was not very much but did not seem to be a royal tomb mark.


    "This is the tomb..."


    Tiara Rose''s vision showed a tomb marker.


    I wonder if I''ve been asleep in this very quiet space. Unexpectedly, grab the cuff of the aquasteed that was next door.


    Immediately Aquasteed turns his arm around Tiara Rose''s hips and hugs him, "I''m fine".


    "Sure, it''s a little creepy"


    Olivia, who was behind me, seems a little anxious, just like Tiara Rose. Soon Levi takes Olivia''s hand and turns to follow her so she doesn''t fall in the dark.


    It''s a little more space than everyone else lets in, but it''s narrow. The dust is terrible and the air is getting worse.


    When you get to the immediate vicinity of the tombstone, it is well known that the material of the tombstone is a good one, but that it has not been left unattended and maintained for a long time.


    Gravemarks carved with something like letters are faint and illegible.


    - How did you get here?


    It''s like being forgotten, hidden trying to get rid of it... it''s like that place. Not very much, but I don''t think you have an item to help someone.


    Lilliage gazes at her staring at the grave marker wondering if she will be all right. Then, from those big eyes, there were zero large tears.


    ''Ferres'' parents are sleeping here, aren''t they?... I have never been able to see you, but did Ferres not miss you ''


    "It''s such a thing as a royal boy. You have things to do and duties to do before your parents do."


    "Aquasteed...... Right. Thinking about it, I think Ferres was always hard working and splendid ''


    "Your Highness Ferres loves Lilia, so happiness is greater than loneliness."


    "Thank you, both of you"


    Hearing the words of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, Lilliage laughs relieved.


    Lilliage joins her small hands and offers prayers to Ferres'' parents.


    Tiara Rose and the others closed their eyes with their hands together. Please give me the power to help Ferres, please.


    Silence lasts for a while, and Lilliage opens her mouth.


    ''Thank you, gentlemen. There''s no mistake here in Ferres'' parents'' tomb. ''


    He went around behind the tombstone and told me this was the royal crest.


    That was before the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli could, and at the same time I tell you that all I still know is about Lilliage and Ferres.


    "Then the rest is what you need!


    ''Yes! I think it''s probably somewhere in the tombstone...''


    If it''s for Ferres, I''m sure my parents who sleep here will forgive me happily. Tiara Rose kneels slowly in front of the tomb marker and deeply thanks.


    Lilliage goes beside Tiara Rose and thanks him in the same way.


    "Please lend me the strength to save His Highness Ferres."


    ''I never saw you, but Ferres seemed to have a great time. But now I''m in pain. Give me the power to save Ferres. "


    I heard the two of them speak and all prayed again.


    "Come on, let''s find"


    Aquasteed touches the headstone and confirms it from the front. Elliot searches behind him and Levy keeps his perimeter alert for when something happens.


    - Of the first king, my parents?


    A record in Marine Forest shows nothing about the first king - Ferres'' parents. On the contrary, there is little material even for the first king.


    I can''t help it because it''s old, but Aquasteed thinks it may have been hidden for political reasons.


    And in the center of the tombstone, the indentation appeared when the accumulated dust was paid by hand. It was dusty and I didn''t realize it, but a closer look showed that it had a handle there.


    ¡­¡­


    "Some of the headstones are off?


    Thinking it''s like a teasing box, Aquasteed shifts some of the headstones. Tiara Rose peeks into it from her crotch, and the clams are pleasantly shining their eyes.


    "Wah, bracelet? Rather than, is it a bracelet?


    "Sounds like it... kind of an unpleasant vibe. I don''t think it''s a very good thing."


    What Aquasteed took in his hand was a rusty bracelet.


    Lilliage also climbs onto Tiara Rose''s shoulder and sees her bracelet. And I immediately glanced at him and said, ''Indeed¡­'' and I agreed with Aquasteed.


    - How about giving this to the first king?


    Aquasteed fears that the condition will become even more unstable.


    "You have to purify this bracelet from bad spirits to give it to Ferres"


    Whatever you do, Lilliage sadly lowers her brow.


    "Dear Lilia..."


    Tiara Rose also wonders if something can be done about it. Ferres will have to keep this bracelet in normal condition to save Marine Forest. I''m sure it used to be a beautiful bracelet.


    What is the way to purify things? Do you want to go to the shrine? I don''t know what to think, but there is no shrine in this world.


    Speaking of things that exist instead, magic.


    - Oh, well.


    Acari and Olivia speak up at the same time that Tiara Rose flashed perfectly. And we looked at each other and at the same time derived the same answer.


    "The Holy Prayer of Heroin!


    I mean me, and Akali tells me confidently.


    "Miss Acari''s? Sure, that might solve it..."


    I see. Nodding, Aquasteed isn''t very motivated. That is because we do not want to involve the royal clams of other countries in our own problems, and we decided that it would be difficult to do so with any power of holy prayer.


    Seeing such aquasteeds, Akari said, "It''s okay!" and take the bracelet with a smile in his hand.


    "Even I want to help Master Lilia. True, this bracelet is a lot of evil. I know it''s degenerating into something bad. ¡­ I''m sure it was obscene because no one came here."


    ''Dear Akali, what can you do...?


    Lilliage gets anxious when she stares at the clam staring at her bracelet. I hear a lot of evil...... and squeeze my little hand tightly.


    To such a lilyage, Akali smiles gently.


    "I''ll take care of it, Master Lilia! Because we have just the right event!


    "Event, is it?


    "Yes! It''s my wedding! With so much happiness, holy prayer is empowering."


    So I''ll take care of it, and Akali laughs.


    "If you make it Akali, your wedding is also an event."


    "Hehe, that sounds like an acari. I think I can see some nice stills."


    I got my bracelet, and the Tiara Roses go back to the ground in an attempt to get back to the royal castle. Get some fresh air and take a breather.


    Tiara Rose thinks that if the tomb were on the ground, the bracelet might not have been soiled this far either. When I settled down, I thought I wanted to come to the grave again.


    Before returning to the carriage, the voice of a horse named Hihin and "Your Highness Aquasteed!" and the voice calling this one gets in my ear. Tensions run all at once to that voice, including haste.


    "Right here!"


    Immediately Elliot speaks up and speaks to the knight on the horse. I''m one of the knights I''ve come with from Marine Forest, and as soon as I look at this one, I kneel.


    "This is urgent news from Marine Forest! From the night sky of Marine Forest, the stars disappeared -"

 68 8. Akalis Wedding

    "There''s a star from Marine Forest...?


    Hear the words of the knight who came, and everyone who was on the spot breathes. That''s never happened before, and I''ve never heard of it.


    What the hell is Tiara Rose all about, it bothers my head. But before guiding the result, Lilliage screams.


    ''Ferres is becoming more unstable...! If it stays like this, it will transmit its effects not only to the stars but also to the earth!!''


    "Huh!"


    "Come on, come on... I just need to purify the bracelet I got and take it"


    Lilliage was in a hurry and hung up on Tiara Rose. The way it is, I can see that the situation is not quite good.


    "But the star disappears... Dear Lilia, what happens to Marine Forest?


    ''Me too, I don''t know. This is the first time Ferres has not been in good condition so far...... However, yes¡­ it is possible that it is no longer a place for people to spend''


    "People...?


    Everyone breathes in the words of Lilliage.


    Marine Forest is a great nation, with the protection of fairies on a rich earth. Even with that, I don''t know if people can live in it - that''s about it.


    The stars disappear, so maybe the sun disappears. Maybe the water will dry up and the grass will stop growing. If you think about it, you won''t have a cut.


    Tiara Rose nods with Aquasteed and confirms her intentions that she must hit her hand as soon as possible.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "It''s okay, Tiara. The country has His Majesty. Our national treasury has nothing to shake with a little disaster"


    Tiara Rose thinks that if it is an important part of her country, she should return soon. Trembling anxiously, Aquasteed smiles at Tiara Rose saying "no problem".


    I hope there are only natural anomalies yet, but it is imperative that there be confusion if it involves the lives of the people.


    Hearing Aquasteed''s words, Tiara Rose nods forcefully.


    We have Acari and Olivia here, so it''s not a very good idea for the royal Tiara Roses to show their impatience. Tiara Rose looks forward, indulging herself in wanting to talk to her soon.


    "Dear Acari, Dear Olivia. I don''t want to make the mess bigger yet. Can you keep this on the spot?


    "Of course."


    "I know, sir"


    Acari and Olivia nodded honestly to Tiara Rose''s words that she didn''t want me to say yet.


    Relax about that, think about what you should do. At the same time, it is important to support Aquasteed and Liriage in making it easier to move.


    - If anything, we need to make sure Lapis Lazuli can help us.


    I think about sending a letter to my father, the Chancellor, as he lays low in content. Akali was also listening to the current report together, so it would help.


    That is also the support Tiara Rose, who gave Lapis and married Marine Forest.


    - We must leave Marine Forest to His Majesty to do what we can.


    But more than that.


    "Dear Lilia, you should return to His Highness Ferres..."


    ''Tiara...... no, things do not get better when I return. Without purified items, there''s no point.''


    So when I stayed here until Akali''s wedding was over, Lilliage made it clear.


    Of course about Marine Forest, but you''d be more concerned about Ferres. Tiara Rose was worried about that, but she''s hacked by the strength of Lilliage.


    - I must also be strong as the Lady of Marine Forest.


    "Elliot, check the Marine Forest information. Accompany it with scheduling."


    "Immediately"


    The knight who brought the news, let him go home one foot away.


    The Tiara Roses board the carriage and meet on their way back to the castle. Aquasteed will meet with Elliot as soon as possible and will only be in your podium for a little while.


    The Tiara Roses think about what has happened with the Acaris while riding the carriage.


    There were no such gaming events, although there were all people with gaming knowledge. As a result, I have no idea what''s going on.


    "It''s okay," he laughs positively, as the acari worries.


    "In the meantime, I think we just need to purify the bracelet. Isn''t it very much like a maiden game to put a hero back together with a purified item?"


    "Dear Acari... it''s not a game, it''s a reality"


    "Of course it is, but there must be a way to definitely be a happy ending!


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at Akali''s words, but I don''t think she''ll be saved by the brightness of Akali at times like this. If you are anxious to be royal, it will be passed on to the people.


    "For now, let''s do what we can. Once my wedding is over, Tiara and the others will have to be ready to return to Marine Forest."


    "Right...... thank you, Dear Acari. Dear Olivia..."


    "I will return with you. Levi, just make sure you get out of here right after the wedding."


    "Yes, sir."


    Because we don''t know anything at this stage, we decided to collect information from each other at Marine Forest. Tiara Rose, Olivia and I might be able to grasp something separate if from each point of view.


    In the meantime, I kept my own return schedule, and the story came together by returning home as soon as Akali''s wedding was over.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Given that the wedding is about to begin, I''m careless...... sometimes I do"


    "Right. Let''s congratulate Master Akali now, although there are some things about Marine Forest."


    Before the ceremony began, Tiara Rose was taking her time while Olivia and I had tea. Now Akali''s ready, and when that''s done, I''ll move the place to join him.


    Levi, Olivia''s butler, is serving me on this occasion, as I leave the liriage thing to Filine.


    Aquasteed is now out of his seat because he has a meeting with Elliot on his way home, etc.


    "When Akali gets married, she won''t be able to come to Marine Forest very often."


    "Yeah, right."


    "I miss you," Olivia tells me, sipping tea. Tiara Rose nods at it and agrees.


    Since Tiara Rose is also in the position of Queen of Aquasteed, the Prince of Kings, it is not possible to go out so easily.


    "Thinking about it, marriage isn''t always a good thing after all..."


    "Dear Olivia...... But if you really want to be with me, I''m sure it will change."


    "Is that what it is?


    If he can''t make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, Olivia is going to be single for the rest of his life, which makes him occasionally anxious. I''m a duke''s warrant for Marine Forest, all the more so because it doesn''t seem like it would be a good idea to have an offer of engagement.


    Olivia can''t seem to imagine much, "I still have a second son in the Count family..." he mutters.


    Looking at Olivia like that, Levi tells her, "Why not something else?"


    "Levi?"


    "We don''t endorse marriages that make Olivia feel painful."


    "Oh...... thanks. Then help me if I''m about to marry more than the eldest son of the Earl''s family."


    "My pleasure."


    Indeed, Tiararose sees the two of them saying that now that they are taking Levi on a dignified pilgrimage to the Holy Land would be the happiest time for Olivia.


    Levy is not only excellent as a butler, he is also very reliable as an escort because he is working out. A knight serving the royal castle may not be enemies in bundles.


    - Nevertheless, am I allowed to give that order here?


    They''re both going to say it for real, so they''re of poor quality.


    He wants Olivia to have a happy marriage one day, but with this butler, it''s a tough future - Tiara Rose got a little worried.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The wedding of Acari and Haltonites took place in the same cathedral as the game. A brightly colored stained glass with a chandelier as if the stars were glowing.


    To the sound of a majestic pipe organ, a clear melody played by the choir.


    "Wow, nice..."


    - As I saw in the game.


    Clams wrapped in pure white wedding dresses made of lace and halt nights dressed in flock coats made of white and sepia.


    - I''m glad you two had a happy marriage.


    Though relieved, Tiara Rose recalls that a lot has happened with Acari and Halt Knights. Originally, Halt Knights was Tiara Rose''s fianc¨¦e.


    I ended up stumbling upon the acari and though I wasn''t true to the story on second thought...... as an ending it''s a happy ending.


    Because it''s the wedding of Akali, the heroine, and Haltnites, the attacker.


    "Tiara"


    "Dear Aqua?


    When I was thinking about the game, Aquasteed talked to me in a whisper. When I tilt my neck wondering what''s wrong, I get a worrying look.


    "... No, because it''s Prince Haltnites'' wedding. I was a little worried. Very, very hard, wouldn''t you say?


    "............... I''m fine. Now, I want you both to be happy."


    "Right..."


    - Tiara''s strong.


    From Aquasteed''s point of view, Tiara Rose is the victim, so to speak, of being suddenly pushed to break her engagement. Though I proposed as I was, I would have had plenty to think about.


    Would I have behaved like her if I had fallen into such a situation? That''s how I think.


    Even if it was done...


    - Like this, you won''t be happy for the two of us.


    It''s a good way to forgive someone for hurting yourself. Because she has a wide heart and blesses someone''s happiness immediately - she must have been able to get blessings for the fairies in the woods that nobody loved.


    "Besides, this is how I was able to be with Master Aqua. I think I''m the happiest person in the world."


    So I''m glad it turned out, Tiara Rose smiles.


    "At all, I''m no match for Tiara. It''s me who''s happy."


    "... Huh!


    Aquasteed also agrees with Tiara Rose and smiles gently.


    That smile looks great and Tiara Rose makes her face red in the light. She says she sees things about Aquasteed every day, but it still happens from time to time.


    "Don''t look so cute in here.... you won''t be able to stand it, will you?


    "! Dear Aqua..."


    Because it''s Akali''s wedding, Tiara Rose looks forward as she holds her red face down with a handkerchief. It''s just a scene where you''re given a ring and you say the words of your vows.


    "Do you think of this country and vow to support and accompany each other when you are sick or healthy? Haltnights Lapis Lazuli Lactomut"


    "I swear."


    "Do you think of this country and vow to support and accompany each other when you are sick or healthy? Acari Titrait"


    "Yes. I swear."


    With the word of the priest, Haltnites vows love to Akali. And Akali pledges his love as well.


    Tiara Rose can breathe unexpectedly into the two of us staring at each other happily. I swear love. I''ve seen this scene many times in the game, but the reality is still hugely touching.


    "I swear with the power of holy prayer I will make this world (...) a place full of love and happiness. So all of you who are joining us, have a flying love for this world!


    "Ah, Acari!?"


    I hear what Akali has declared, and I''m panicking that Haltnites might not be like pre-practice. Tiara Rose thinks what an acari she is, laughing unexpectedly at it.


    Akali is a man of the Lapis Lazuli kingdom, but this world itself is also the game she loves.


    Even if it was a country that wasn''t playing in the game, he wants to turn it upside down and protect it.


    "Looks like Miss Acari," laughs Aquasteed next door. Olivia, who is attending a little far away, is making her eyes gleam, and that''s good. As much as I can hear her heart saying please don''t do more.


    Akali receives the ring from Halt Knights, looks lovely and then mouths it softly.


    Slowly closing his eyes, Akali prays. Along with that, the participants pray for love for the world by putting their hands together and closing their eyes just like the acari.


    "Please pray with us, Master Haltnights"


    "Oh."


    Nodding at the word of the acari, Haltnites lays his hand on the hand of the acari.


    "To Lapis Lazuli, I pray for the abundance of flying off. Then convert this power to holy and also purify the despicable!


    When Akali declares so, a fluffy, beautiful brunette rises and a white light. Everyone gets nailed to that mysterious figure.


    It is what holy power has become a pillar of light. Reminds me to miss seeing the same sight when Akari awakens to this power.


    The light of purification goes through the cathedral ceiling and pours all over the country. At the same time, in the bracelet held by Lilliage waiting with Filine in the guest room provided for the cathedral.


    Participants are narrowing their eyes about to blindfold the overflowing light. "This is holy prayer......" I heard whispers honoring Akali that "our country is safe".


    "Wow. That''s holy prayer."


    "Now the bracelet I give you to His Highness Ferres must also be purified"


    "Oh, yeah"


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed decided to return to Marine Forest shortly after attending the ceremony. I would have stayed at Tiara Rose''s parents'' house for a few days if it had been, but it''s all postponed.


    Now I''m just saying that the stars have disappeared from the sky, and no harm has been done to people. Nor have they reported to other countries. We are going to go back to the country and see how Ferres is doing to decide on future moves.


    Tiara Rose is relieved that the ceremony went well.


    The ritual was successfully completed, and then Acari and Haltnights both exited and finished. - where the acari opens his mouth "Then what''s next".


    "Acari? Would you leave...?


    "No, because I haven''t thrown the bouquet yet"


    "Throw a bouquet...... what?


    - Dear Akali, please exit!


    Seeing the two people who had started the conversation, Tiara Rose felt a headache. Tiara Rose, who is invited as royalty, can hear the conversation because she is watching the ceremony in the front row.


    Hartnights is in trouble not knowing what it is about because he is not in the habit of doing bouquet toss in this world.


    Unlike Japan, most of the attending warrants are married or have fianc¨¦es.


    I realize that Acari''s gaze is directed at Olivia when I wonder if it might be annoying.


    "Oh, that''s what...!?"


    "Tiara?"


    "Oh, no. When I receive a bouquet of brides, I have a jinx that says," The next thing I know, I''ll be happy to be married. "


    "I see, so..."


    Aquasteed knows Olivia doesn''t have a fianc¨¦e, so he hears and convinces Tiara Rose that Akali will bake her care.


    But the music of exit is already starting to play.


    Definitely not having a bouquet toss meeting...... and seeing Olivia wondering what the hell she''s going to do while laughing bitterly at the freedom of the acari.


    Then Olivia twitches her hand, and her gaze stares at the bouquet. Definitely turns out I''m serious (bee) about picking up a bouquet.


    - If you take the bouquet of holy prayer, you can''t marry the Count''s second son?


    That may be the bulk of offers for engagement coming from royal and duke sons in other countries.


    Olivia, whose hobby is pilgrimage to the Holy Land, has the goal of living as she pleases with her daughter-in-law around the Count''s second son.


    "The girl who got my bouquet, be happy!


    "- Huh!?"


    Acari, who proclaimed so loudly, throws the bouquet heavenly high. Its trajectory is straight towards Olivia, although it makes it look like a casual throw.


    From the ladies who heard the word of the acari, a delightful voice lifts up, and his gaze turns to the bouquet. But would it be an enemy to Olivia already in a battle posture?


    - It''s so burning. Lady Olivia is rare.


    Although there are times when tension is definitely high, the calm side is usually strong. Even while I was attending the ceremony, I strained the smile of the lady to keep her quiet.


    But now, I''m stretching my arms toward the bouquet that''s coming at me.


    Olivia caught the thrown bouquet loose and falling - couldn''t do it.


    "Huh?"


    "Hmm?"


    "Is that it?"


    Tiara Rose, Acari, Olivia and...... puts a question mark on my head.


    Indeed, the bouquet was imminent before Olivia''s eyes, and no matter what she thought, it was not the kind of situation that other warrants could catch.


    I don''t know what the hell that means, but I put my gaze around the cathedral - and I found it.


    "Levi has it..."


    "............... what the hell is that butler really"


    "I don''t know what that means," Aquasteed told Tiara Rose when she heard her crush.

 69 9. Lost Starry Sky

    "I didn''t think Levi would take the bouquet that was directed at me!


    "I''m surprised at that one. Dear Acari, because he was pompous..."


    Sigh like Olivia gave up.


    Look at that, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed just have to laugh bitterly. This story is going to get screwed later.


    Now that Akali''s wedding is over, he''s in the carriage hurrying back to Marine Forest. Elliot and Levy do the honors, and the other knights are running as they escort around the carriage.


    We decided to return to Marine Forest first with only the minimum number of members because it would take time for everyone to travel.


    "In the meantime, it was nice to be able to attend the wedding safely. Too bad I wasn''t able to stay in Lapis Lazuli much, but when I settle down again, you just have to make time for me to travel"


    "Yes, I''m looking forward to it"


    While Aquasteed strokes Tiara Rose''s hair, she tells him she wants to go to other countries with him.


    Olivia can''t help but look at it with a smile and say it''s like a new still and eye blessing.


    "Ugh, I want water, water ~"


    "Are you all right? Dear Lilia......"


    ''Mm... yes no''


    Lilliage, who was resting on Olivia''s lap, looked disgusting but asked for water. Tiara Rose sounds worried and Olivia gives Lilliage a drink of water.


    Gently stroking her back, Olivia opened the window just a little to change the air.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Soon after crossing the border between Lapis Lazuli and Marine Forest, a glimmer of wind blew Keith and Claire appeared. (Can''t you go to another country?


    Marine Forest has become unstable and we''ve been waiting for the Aquasteeds to return.


    "I didn''t expect you to arrive and be greeted early, Claire"


    "Even I never thought this would happen. I can''t believe Lilia left Marine Forest."


    For one thing Aquasteed gets off the carriage and goes under the crail.


    "We need to discuss this as soon as possible."


    Claire, who looks tired somewhere, breathes. Turn your gaze to Lilliage, who is in the carriage, and then squeal your fingers with your pussy.


    "-!"


    At the next moment, with Claire, Tiara Rose, Aquasteed, Lilliage, Elliott, Olivia and Levi disappeared from the spot and transferred.


    A temple in the sky, the realm of the crail.


    A large space and a round table and chairs for a number of people were available in the centre.


    It will be the first time the Tiara Roses have entered this place without the protection of the Fairy King of the Skies, Claire. Olivia also tried to come here on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land but it was impossible.


    Olivia, who is about to raise an accidental exclamation, but now I endure with my hands on my mouth that it is not the time.


    "Claire, just stop letting me transfer all of a sudden without a word"


    "I didn''t have much time."


    The knights, who have left without telling them anything, are probably in a hurry. I know you''ll be waiting nearby, but Aquasteed thinks you should go back as soon as you can.


    "Tiara, how have you been?


    "Keith! What the hell happened?


    "Well, I''ve been waiting to tell you that. In the meantime, from the description of the status quo"


    Keith, the Fairy King of the Woods, who is celebrating Tiara Rose.


    The long hair is lightly assembled, and the height is masculine and the king''s piercing. "You''re in a lot of trouble," said some distracted voice.


    Claire was the first one to open his mouth after making sure everyone got to their seats.


    "Firstly, from the current state of Marine Forest. The stars are disappearing from the night sky and the fairies are weakened. If we don''t do anything about it, the earth will lose its strength."


    "Does that have anything to do with His Highness Ferres? How did this happen?"


    Aquasteed asks Crail to explain why this happened all of a sudden, when there has never been a problem before.


    "I''ll explain it in order," Claire tells Lilliage as she turns her gaze.


    "First, Fell, the first king¡­ Ferres and his queen, Lilliage. During the founding of Marine Forest, we shared our power with Ferres. It''s superior to normal blessings."


    "But to Ferres, a human being, the power was too great."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Listening to the words of Claire and Keith, Lilliage distorts her expression spiciferously. But without saying anything, I urge the two of you to go ahead.


    "Its immense power replaced Ferres with King of the Starry Skies. It''s the same power as us fairy kings. Just like us fairy kings, Ferres created a ring with his own power - a ring in the starry sky."


    ¨D¨D


    I heard Claire tell me that he was given the power of the Fairy King and that Ferres had acquired the power that no man could, and Aquasteed breathes.


    Aquasteed himself was recognized by Ferres as king and one of the creators of the rings of the starry sky. In other words, it seems to be pointed out that aquasteeds are different from humans, just like Ferres.


    Aquasteed''s gaze is directed towards Tiara Rose''s fingered rings in the starry sky.


    "Our three fairy kings and Ferres, king of the starry sky. Founded by these four, this is where Marine Forest starts."


    "I see. Claire, can I have one?


    "Go ahead, Aquasteed"


    "Why is there no information on Ferres, the first king, in this country? Even more unnatural without information if you are so cordial with Ferres."


    The country is adorned with paintings of historical kings. But there''s no sign of Ferres there. Only the portrait of the first king is missing.


    At the same time, it is equal to no material written about what kind of person he was.


    Aquasteed thought there would be a good reason, but if he had done the founding with the Fairy King, it would be weird.


    Still, this country cares about fairies. How did you treat Ferres, whom the king of that fairy gave power, to hide?


    Lilliage opened her mouth as Aquasteed stared at Crail for answers.


    "Let''s talk about it from me."


    Standing on a chair with a small body, Lilliage looks around everyone''s face. And in its hands, the rings of the starry sky created by Ferres are ravaged.


    ''This is the ring of the starry sky that Ferres gave me. The effect is twofold. The first is the power of healing. And the other thing... is to accept with this ring the immense power that Ferres could not receive''


    "Eh...!?"


    One of the most surprising things about that word is Tiara Rose with a starry sky ring given to her by Aquasteed in the same way.


    If it''s the same starry ring, it''s probably the same effect. It was probably also the healing power this ring had that revived Tiara Rose''s memory.


    Touching his own ring, Tiara Rose can''t hide her agitation in a beating that gets faster.


    I wonder if this ring also embraces the unacceptably immense power of Aquasteed. But I don''t feel that way right now.


    But now it''s more about me than...


    "Dear Lilia, is Aqua okay...!?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose is anxious that maybe Aquasteed will also become unstable, like Ferres.


    Seeing Tiara Rose like that, Lilliage sees'' You''ll Continue ''and Aquasteed.


    ''If it''s true, I wish I could have done something with just me and Ferres.... but that didn''t come true. It is painful to entrust such a thing to our children''


    Lilliage''s body, who told him so, is trembling in small pieces. It looks very spicy and the thought of not wanting to bother Tiara Rose and Aquasteed about ourselves.


    After a little silence, Lilliage continues the words.


    ''... you might have a prediction. This time, Ferres became unstable and there was an anomaly in Marine Forest... because my tolerance was also full and I could no longer take Ferres'' power ''


    Although there have been signs of this for a long time, Lilliage says she has been unable to do anything about it until now.


    Kaku Liliage has also just managed to move in a way that is not human like this. Tiara Rose and the others are less free than they think.


    "Shut up, I''m sorry"


    To Lilliage''s words, Tiara Rose shook her head "No".


    It would be very courageous to tell them that it would be a burden on them. This is all the more so because the country and Aquasteed will be heavily involved in the future.


    ''Aquasteed. You are very influenced by Ferres. That would be your birth qualities. Closer to the king than anyone ever born''


    "I mean, I... inherit His Highness Ferres'' blood in colour"


    "Yes, sir."


    Lilliage turns her gaze to Aquasteed.


    "It was only recently that I was able to move in this way. But Ferres has always had an impact ''


    "Influence?"


    ''Yes. Aquasteed, your power was affecting Ferres. I don''t even know why... but I think Ferres would know. Is it just more power or is it some kind of mutation''


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - I mean, am I the cause of things?


    I never thought my powers were affecting Ferres. We''ll have to meet Ferres and find out more.


    ''Aquasteed. You, too, may one day be crushed by the same power as that Ferres. Tiara thought about it exactly when she heard the story, didn''t she?


    "Dear Lilia......!


    ''... it''s okay. Now, not yet.''


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Now the silence flows when I hear the words of Lilliage that


    Everyone is afraid of the upcoming Marine Forest and worried that something will happen to Aquasteed.


    It was Aquasteed who broke that slight silence.


    "Thank you for your valuable story. Dear Lilliage, but my body is fine, and my magic has increased... not that I can''t control it."


    ''Yeah. That surprised me so much to see Aquasteed too. Because Ferres seemed spicy right after he got his powers as king...''


    Very strange, says Lilliage.


    Of course, that''s best if you can stay like this because it''s not a bad situation.


    "The answer must be Tiara."


    Me?


    Keith shares his thoughts with the distressed Lilliage. Tiara Rose, hearing it, sees Keith properly. Anyway, Tiara Rose doesn''t have a lot of magic, nor can she use special magic like an acari.


    If it''s heroine, what the hell can a villain''s wife do?


    Keith laughs when he sees Tiara Rose making her wonder.


    "I told you before, right? You said you were funny. At the end of the vessel, the amount of magic is low. So I guess it''s easy to accept the power of Aquasteed"


    ¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose hears the word and thinks about her characterization as a villain''s warrant lady.


    One of a number of characters with a name. Less important characters were listed as names in the game, such as [students] and [knights].


    If you consider the position of Villain Warrant Lady, surely that spec would be higher than a nameless mob. Although I never had a chance to use it.


    In other words, isn''t Tiara Rose''s body originally built to withstand even using high-spec magic and the like?


    That''s why we''re using the power of the Fairy King right now - but it''s okay to use big magic that consumes a lot of magic. People with little magic can fall. When you think about it, it goes without saying.


    I never thought that coming here and being a villain warrant lady would help Aquasteed.


    "In the meantime, we need to do something about Ferres now. Lilia, you had a solution, and you went to Lapis Lazuli, didn''t you?


    ''Of course it is. If you put this on Ferres, it should absorb and stabilize the extra magic''


    "I see."


    Look at Lilliage''s bracelet and nod if Keith does.


    "Then how do you put it on Fell''s arm..."


    "Right. Now I''m going under Ferres, but my bones just break."


    Hear the words of the two fairy kings and find that this is not a very good situation. You should get ready immediately and go see Ferres in the basement of the Royal Castle.


    "Sorry about us"


    "Never mind, Master Lilliage. I''m royal, so that''s part of the role."


    "... Aquasteed looks just like Ferres."


    Lilliage smiles and sees them all.


    And to cement your resolve - to speak of that wish.


    ''Then I ask you all. As it is, Marine Forest itself is swallowed up and doomed by the power of Ferres. Please, don''t let Ferres, who loved this country, do that. Join me... help Ferres''


    "Of course, Master Lilia. I will protect this country with Aqua until I die."


    "I won''t let that happen when this country dies. We still have a lot of places to go."


    Listening to the words of Lilliage, Tiara Rose and Olivia nod of course.


    Aquasteed gets up and looks around at the members here.


    "From here on out, it''ll be a pretty tough phase. Miss Olivia has become involved, but we need everyone''s help for Marine Forest."


    "I will always be next to Master Aqua"


    "Don''t say such a thing about getting involved. As a nobleman of Marine Forest, I will do everything I can. You can also use Levi like your hands and feet."


    Tiara Rose and Olivia smile at Aquasteed''s words. The two fairy kings nodded and began to move this country, trying to save Ferres.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Just as the story came together, Claire moved everyone to the royal castle in Marine Forest. Thanks for that, each of them will be ready soon.


    Aquasteed first thought to discuss it with the King, but the King himself came under Aquasteed. I guess he heard about his return and decided he couldn''t even afford to wait.


    While heading to the office, Aquasteed asks about the current state of Marine Forest. So far, there seemed to be no difference from the information given by Crail earlier.


    "From me, too, I have something to report. Or we know the cause itself"


    "You mean you got that much information... that''s just blessed by the Fairy King in the sky"


    One of the weapons of the Fairy King in the sky is information.


    Even if you haven''t been blessed, that''s about as much the king grasps.


    I''m relieved by that, too, during the bundle.


    What I don''t like is what comes next...


    "Dear Aquasteed, reports are up that the plants are starting to wither!


    "The plants!?"


    Aquasteed''s office.


    Elliot, who immediately went to check on the situation, changed his blood phase and came back. I hold my head that this is what it means to affect the earth in its unlikely reports...


    There''s no way I can revive a dying plant.


    One suggestion is made by the King as Aquasteed devises what is going on.


    "If we''re going to move soon...... we''re going to need words to reassure the people to contain the confusion"


    "Speech, is it..."


    What the King suggested was a speech.


    There is, of course, a reason to pretend that the story is not with the king himself, but with Aquasteed, the king''s prince. That''s the rate of support from the people.


    Prince Wang, who is blessed by the Fairy King, has more trust than the King. In addition, Tiara Rose, the Queen, has received blessings from the Fairy King.


    Thinking about it, the King decided that Aquasteed would be more deserving this time than he was.


    "You''re more appropriate, not me. What do you think, Miss Olivia?


    When the king asks Olivia, Olivia claps her hands and endorses.


    "That''s a very good idea. His Royal Highness Aquasteed is popular with the public, so it will be reassuring for the people to have words to wipe out their anxiety."


    "We don''t know at the moment how much time it takes to get to an end. I think you should take immediate action."


    Elliot also agrees with the King and immediately leaves the office to prepare his speech. Even though he grinned bitterly at the immediate vicinity, Aquasteed stood up to get ready.


    Aquasteed tells the King that he has not yet given details, but will let them come from Elliot while he is making his speech.


    Nodding, the king smiles softly as if he is pleased with the growth of my son. If you can count on me so much, you can give me all the authority.


    "You seem to know a lot more about this one than I do. I''ll take care of the castle, and you can move freely to solve it."


    "That would be greatly appreciated. necessarily, save the marine forest.


    Aquasteed and the king exchanged their gazes and nodded at each other.

 70 10. Forest Fairy Kings Ring

    I heard Aquasteed give a speech, and despite the suddenness, many of the people gathered. Tiara Rose is proud to say that Aquasteed''s hopes were there as well.


    The place where the speech will take place is a square built right next to the royal castle.


    It is also a place where ordinary people are allowed to enter, and is usually a place to relax and interact as a park. Now there, many citizens are gathered.


    Tiara Rose takes a softly peek at the square through the window before the speech begins.


    "Wow, amazing man..."


    So many people, people, people, people that I think more than half of the people are coming. Those who can''t get into the square are overflowing the road, waiting for Aquasteed now or now.


    Then, shift your gaze a bit to see the plants in the square. Although I have heard Elliot''s report, I had not yet confirmed a plant that had begun to wither with my own eyes.


    I thought the tragic sight was spreading, but the flowers were still blooming, and the trees had leaves. I''m relieved about that, but if you look closely... the shades are dull somewhere. Exactly, as the expression began to wither.


    I am anxious that once Ferres'' power has stabilized, we will be able to solve this problem. Reverting dead plants is like bringing the dead back to life.


    "Tiara"


    "! Dear Aqua..."


    As he stares out the window, Aquasteed holds Tiara Rose as "it''s okay".


    Feel anxious and gently stroke Tiara Rose''s hair and touch her forehead with her fingers. Keep your forehead revealed and kiss there gently.


    "I''m worried...... I''m sure it''ll work out. There is Aqua, and most importantly... Lilia is working hard for His Highness Ferres."


    "Right. And then I have Tiara, so it''s a hundred manpower."


    Aquasteed''s finger, which was stroking his hair, touches Tiara Rose''s cheek. Its temperature is comfortable and Tiara Rose slips into Aquasteed''s hands like a small animal.


    We both want to stay like this forever - I can''t believe it, I think. Such a sweet space. Your lips overlap from either side, hugging each other to make sure they''re warm.


    Like replenishing the tough situations ahead with energy to get over them.


    "Mm, Dear Aqua...... Aqua"


    "Yeah. Just a little more. May Tiara bless me so that words may reach the people"


    "... n"


    You know what, whenever I give it to you, Tiara Rose smiles. He was spoken to several times to snuggle, and when he realized it was time for the speech to begin.


    When Aquasteed showed up from the balcony with Tiara Rose, the crowd shouted woefully. Tiara Rose has goosebumps when the air trembles so much in people''s voices.


    "His Highness Aquasteed, His Highness Tiara Rose!


    "If you two are around, this country is cheap!


    "Bless the Fairy King to Marine Forest!!"


    - This has more expectations than I expected.


    Is the royalty what so much pressure comes from the people? I meant to know, but my legs tremble when I have to see them. Tiara Rose unconsciously squeezes the hem of the dress.


    Aquasteed, who takes that weight all by himself, was looking straight at the gathered. Not if you''re trembling when you''re the only one standing next to Aquasteed. Tiara Rose similarly looks firmly at the people.


    Tiara Rose also became a daughter-in-law and royalty now under Aquasteed. I eat relaxing sweets all the time, because I''m not a marquis maid.


    Aquasteed takes a step forward for the speech and turns back to Tiara Rose before speaking.


    "Tiara, beside me"


    "Ha, yes... Huh!


    Take the offered Aquasteed hand and line up next to the Tiara Rose as well as the step-by-step and step-by-step Aquasteed.


    Then the people said, "Your Highness Tiara Rose!" A great cheer boiled down.


    "My queen is loved too much by the people."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Aquasteed grinned, his right hand softly up. All the people who saw it shut their mouths and the square was surrounded by silence.


    I can''t believe how many people there are and how quiet the sight can be.


    "Thank you for gathering here despite the sudden announcement."


    Make sure you see the faces of all the people, and Aquasteed opens his mouth.


    Its voice is low, but clear, beyond the square - it spreads all over the city. To the loudness of its voice, the assembled people opened their eyes wide and were astonished.


    What Aquasteed uses is an empty fairy king''s ring. This has an extension that makes the voice of the owner sound wide. For the king to preach the word to the people, the ring.


    "We live in this country, so we will all grasp the tragedy. When the stars are disappearing from the night sky, plants and crops are losing power and starting to wither away."


    Aquasteed takes a slow, deep breath.


    "-But. This is the country the fairies and their kings love. I, too, am blessed by the Fairy King. That''s why I assure you. Marine Forest needs to wither."


    Speaking forcefully, Aquasteed holds Tiara Rose''s hips next door. Once again, show the people that some Tiara Roses are loved not only by themselves, but also by the Fairy King of the Forest.


    Rest assured, Tiara Rose smiles and waves as she says so.


    "I have already moved to bring this matter to a resolution. But there is no power to bring the plants back to life here and now. Therefore, I want to ask everyone. I want you to enjoy it until I fix it."


    "As soon as we have food insecurity, we are also preparing to open our national treasury. Don''t be anxious, trust your Highness Aquasteed."


    Hearing the words of Aquasteed and Tiara Rose, the people immediately express their willingness to endorse.


    "It''s usually His Highness Aquasteed and His Highness Tiara Rose, who are moving for Marine Forest. There may not be anything we can do to help, but believe me, we can wait! Wouldn''t you? Guys!!"


    "Of course! Even the food is stockpiled. Even if we don''t open the treasury right away, there''s no way we can hold out."


    "Your Highness, who moves to solve the problem, should not be stopped with our dissatisfied voice!


    There''s no problem with the city, show it endurance. The voice of such a people reaches the ears of the Tiara Roses. Tiara Rose peeled all the way over where she was about to cry unexpectedly.


    "Very nice, you''re a people. Dear Aqua,"


    "Oh. I''ll do my best not to betray this trust"


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    There are two main problems.


    The bracelet shall be delivered to Ferres to restrain and stabilize the force.


    Correspondence between disappeared stars and plants that have begun to wither.


    There''s Ferres. "Sealed and ready to head to the king''s chambers, see the members accompanying him. Claire and Keith will accompany us this time, so there will be relatively no problems.


    That''s what I thought Aquasteed, but, hey, Tiara Rose sees me thinking of something as I can think of it.


    "Tiara? Something bothering you?


    "Dear Aqua, I wonder if the plants that began to wither will also come back to life if they went under His Majesty Ferres and put on their bracelets."


    Sure, Tiara Rose''s anxiety is best.


    Keith opens his mouth when Aquasteed is bothered to respond.


    "We cannot revive dead plants. Even if you stabilize Fell, the disappeared stars will just return. the affected earth, its influence will only disappear"


    "I mean, the fact that the influence disappeared doesn''t go back to being dead."


    "Yes."


    To Keith''s exact words, the air gets a little heavier.


    "Tiara...... sorry, if I had more power"


    "It''s not Master Lilia''s fault, don''t say that"


    Tiara Rose tells Lilliage that it''s not the same. At the same time, breathe heavily and close your eyes to decide something.


    See how it goes and Olivia goes under Tiara Rose looking worried. "What''s wrong? ''It''s okay,'' he grins at Olivia, who seems worried.


    And Tiara Rose stared at Keith as she was determined.


    "Tiara?"


    "Me?


    Aquasteed calls Tiara Rose to bewilderment, but now only Keith shows up in those eyes.


    "Keith, I need a favor."


    "Hmm?"


    "I want you to entrust me with the ring of the Fairy King of the Woods."


    To the words of Tiara Rose, all but the fairy king are annoyed.


    The Fairy King of the Woods ring is a promise of plant abundance. If we do get this ring, we may be able to resurrect dead plants.


    Keith chuckled, "I see," he muttered.


    "Surely, if it were my ring, it would also be able to resurrect the dead earth. Tiara Rose, are you ready to receive my ring?


    "I do!


    "Ooh."


    Listen to Keith and answer immediately.


    You admired that, and Keith laughs.


    The Fairy King of the Woods ring promises abundance.


    However, there are conditions for that.


    One is that Marine Forest has only that effect in the country.


    The other is when the bearer of the ring - Tiara Rose - has abandoned this country. The Fairy King of the Woods ring erases the effect and returns under Keith.


    The richness to date will disappear and the growth of plants will be reduced. He asked Tiara Rose if she was prepared to receive the grievance from the people.


    "It''s impossible for me to dump Marine Forest. Spending the rest of my life in this land, I''ve made up my mind since I was married... when Aqua reached out to me."


    Looking into Tiara Rose''s eyes with determination, Keith narrows her eyes with joy.


    "... from me, please"


    "Aquasteed, too, huh? I wish they''d asked me that much."


    !!


    Tiara Rose can flaunt her face to Keith, who agrees with her.


    "Thank you! Now you don''t have to worry about starving the people."


    "Right.... but then we''ll split it up."


    "Sure, it would be a good idea to get a ring while heading under His Majesty Ferres"


    Approximately the grateful Tiara Rose, Keith tells her it''s not such an easy issue. Aquasteed nodded at it too. I don''t have time to do this slowly, one by one.


    Hearing that, Tiara Rose nods too.


    Where the ring is, it''s the fairy king''s hidden stage. Only man blessed by that fairy king is eligible to go there. Therefore, it follows that only Tiara Rose can go to Keith''s hidden stage.


    "I''m worried about letting Tiara go alone..."


    "If you''re going to say that, I''m worried about Master Aqua. But now it''s a matter for the country. I will do my part, and I ask His Majesty Ferres and Lilia to do the same."


    "Oh."


    It was decided to split in two hands, and Tiara Rose and Keith went to the hidden stage where the Fairy King of the Woods ring was kept.


    Aquasteed headed between the sealed and king where Ferres awaited, along with Claire, Lilliage, Elliot, Olivia and Levy.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Tiara Rose and Keith headed for the woods behind the Royal Castle.


    In fact, there is a small tree gate, where it is the hidden stage of Keith the Fairy King of the Woods.


    "Here... I''ve been through this a few times."


    I can''t believe an entrance was made to such a grand place, like passing by an occasional walk. I think so, but the grass and flowers make it impossible to see it as an entrance.


    "It''s in a place like this, but the entrance to the ring is hard to understand and make. Evidence suggests that no one has ever realized this is the Tree Gate. Thinking about it, it''s amazing you got yourself a pearl ring."


    "That''s... well, it''s a maiden''s account"


    Tiara Rose deceives vaguely because I just can''t say it''s because Levi remembered the game knowledge.


    When you gently go inside the tree gate, the smell of greenery becomes stronger.


    Tree gates are tunnels made of trees. I don''t know where it leads, Tiara Rose thinks it''s a strange tunnel. Sometimes when the fairies used to bring me here, I couldn''t believe I was connected under Keith.


    A lot of flowers were blooming inside the tree gate. Nor is that just a flower.


    "What is this... a gem?


    "Oh. The grace of the earth."


    The center of the flower was filled with gems instead of honey. It''s also bright somewhere in the tree gate, glittering and surrounded by trees.


    Keith picks it one and gives it to Tiara Rose.


    "The jewels, the earth makes. Because the environment is good here, special flowers with their nutrients will bloom."


    "It''s unique to Keith''s realm."


    "Well. You can''t see anywhere but here."


    - Instead, if it blooms outside of here, there ''ll be confusion.


    For God''s sake, the jewels are blooming as flowers. Plants never escape, and you can pick them all you want.


    "So was Pearl''s realm, but that''s the fairy king..."


    "What, have you reviewed it?


    "¡­ more than ever, I respect Keith"


    So Tiara Rose pokes that it''s not a matter of reviewing or anything like that. Seeing that, Keith chuckles, "That''s funny."


    "To me, the fairy king, it''s like a tiara to behave like that."


    "... Didn''t Keith tell you to do that"


    You also forbade me to call you after, and often said, Tiara Rose is all alone. They''re funny how Tiara Rose looks like that, and Keith laughs again.


    "Already! Even the Aqua are in trouble toward His Majesty Ferres, so let us hurry!


    Without time to relax, Tiara Rose increases her walking speed. Keith still laughs when you usually walk slowly.


    - We need to get the Fairy King of the Woods ring and go under Master Aqua quickly!


    Although I may not need much power of my own, there is a possibility that I can help something because I have a starry ring ring.


    After a while, a silver door appears.


    Margined with plants it is majestic, somewhere intimidating, and stops by accident.


    Seeing Tiara Rose like that, Keith laughs as she turns her arms around her neck from behind.


    "What, did you notice that?


    "I don''t..."


    "Nothing to be afraid of. You welcome Tiara Rose here?


    Like one day when you invite me to my castle - say so, and Keith slowly opens the silver door.


    Inside it was like a small room, unlike the tree gate that came through, with no flowers but no plants, it was just a quiet space with white walls and a pedestal in the center.


    One way or another, it doesn''t look like Keith''s room that prefers flashy.


    "Look, come here"


    "... Yep"


    Keith offered his hand to Tiara Rose, who was not in the room and looked around inside. Taking it, it escorts slowly to the front of the pedestal.


    The ring placed on the pedestal is a double chain type that attaches to the middle and pinky fingers. The chain part was decorated to mimic the plants, and the part of the ring was adorable with a jewel of the flower''s heel.


    - Beautiful.


    That''s the candid feeling.


    When I saw Keith right next to me, all I got was a nod back. Take it quickly, Keith''s golden eyes are complaining to Tiara Rose.


    Take it gently, Tiara Rose looks at the ring. The color is pink gold, but the addition and subtraction of light also seems to make it green. When I try to put it on my finger quickly, it takes a stop from Keith.


    "Huh?"


    "Tiara, you''re going to put your finger on yourself when I''m here, the king?


    If you have no idea, Keith takes the ring from Tiara Rose''s hand.


    "Keith!"


    "You''re not gonna give me a gift from the Fairy King without me, are you?


    Keith laughs like he does. Tiara Rose cannot be denied, the king''s word.


    Tiara Rose carelessly offers her right hand to close her eyes and calm her feelings.


    Keith takes Tiara Rose''s right hand and mouths it on its back - softly, put the ring on. Then a great force flows into Tiara Rose.


    "-!"


    "This is my power. Tiara would handle it well."


    Keith''s power circles the entire body of Tiara Rose. Because of its strength, his body is about to fall flutter, but Keith hugs him tight.


    The Fairy King''s ring takes about a day to get acquainted with the body. If you remove it before you get acquainted, that recoil will strike you. When Tiara Rose had previously removed Pearl''s ring, she fell asleep and lost her memory so much.


    - But it''s a lot more powerful than that.


    Repeat breathing shallow and wait to calm down.


    "... it''s okay now"


    "Until you get used to it, don''t get distracted - Ah"


    "Huh?"


    The moment Tiara Rose walked away from Keith and breathed - making a sound of a pong, a plant grew from the ground where there was nothing.

 71 11. Monster between sealed and king

    Just as Tiara Rose left for the ring of Fairy King of the Woods, Aquasteed also sealed to meet Ferres and headed among kings.


    In addition to Aquasteed and Lilliage, Elliot, Olivia and Levy will accompany them. Lilliage with a bracelet is a form that Aquasteed can hold.


    "I''ve been there before, so the directions are fine"


    "Oh."


    Elliot leads confidently, and then the Aquasteeds follow. In the event of an unforeseen event, Levy is at the end of the story.


    Out of unpleasant tension or low mouth count on the road. Lilliage holds her bracelet tight as she prays. The only person whose body is shaking a little is probably Aquasteed.


    - Ahead, what the hell is going on?


    Will Ferres, the first king, be in that place as well? I wonder if it''s turning into something heterogeneous... such anxiety was present in Aquasteed.


    "... Somehow, the air is heavier than it was when you came before. Olivia, isn''t it cold?


    "No, I''m fine. Something that''s rather exciting and hot."


    "That''s good."


    Levi opens his mouth, silent for a long time, just before he arrives between the sealed and king, which is his destination. The content was a concern for Olivia, but it contained an unmissable word that it was not the same as it had been when she had visited before.


    I''m pretty sure that''s because Aquasteed also felt it, and Levi, the strong one, thought the same thing.


    Immediately we reached the door that was sealed and continued among kings.


    Luxurious doors with sculptures of the fairies and floral lamps illuminate the area on both sides. The entrance is no different, but the tingling air stings my skin.


    ''Aquasteed, open it quickly. Inside is Ferres......!


    "Calm down, Master Lilliage"


    Once he had deposited the hurrying Lilliage with Olivia, Aquasteed lowered Elliot and slowly opened his hands to the door himself.


    "Ferres!"


    Immediately Lilliage tries to go under Ferres, but Olivia holding it and Levy holding it back stop it. Lilliage wants to get out of her embraced arm, but Olivia''s power is stronger than she expected, and she won''t forgive it.


    At the end of the door, Ferres stood.


    White outfit with a long white cape and a number of ornaments. Somewhere divine he is, but now he''s depressed as if he''s been depressed.


    And I feel, not very good air. As Ferres slowly opened his mouth, he turned his gaze to the entrance.


    - Lilia, why did you leave me on your own?


    "Ferres, I''m here to help you...... Huh!?"


    To help, I''ve got my bracelet. That''s what I tried to go on, Lilliage, but it''s ha-ha breathtaking. And I tell you in a trembling voice, ''No way so far''.


    I thought you were keeping a good consciousness, but apparently Ferres'' consciousness has become a very volatile one.


    Ferres'' eyes raised his face - they were changing color from golden to pitch-black.


    - Is this a recoil that can''t control enormous forces?


    I wonder if I can put my bracelet on Ferres in this state. Definitely, it wasn''t normal, and honestly it didn''t seem to fit me out of myself.


    As Aquasteed crept through the door and took a step, Ferres pulled out his sword and pointed his cut at Aquasteed.


    "If you want to take Lilia away from me, even my child will not forgive you."


    "...... Huh!!"


    ''No, Ferres! Listen to me!!''


    Lilliage roughs up his voice, but that doesn''t reach Ferres. The colorless eyes remain directed at Aquasteed.


    "Duh, what shall we do? Now it''s hard to put a bracelet on His Highness Ferres..."


    "Right. Is His Highness Ferres a strong sword?


    I can''t think of a good idea of how Elliot could put on a bracelet. While Olivia agrees with that, she asks Levy what Ferres'' prowess is.


    "The sword can be seen as quite powerful. His Highness Aquasteed is also a powerful man, but this one doesn''t want to hurt His Highness Ferres, so isn''t it bad minutes?"


    Seeing Ferres''s set-up without a gap, Levi tells him so. In addition, Ferres is in the position of King of the Starry Skies with power from the Fairy Kings. More than a sword, you can think of magic as troublesome.


    Defeating and capturing your opponent completely changes your standing around. If we can strike relentlessly, we might win...... Levy continued.


    "Whatever it takes, Levi takes His Highness Ferres - ahhh!


    You can''t attack me, Olivia accidentally raises her voice when she tries to go on like that. Ferres, who had his sword on Aquasteed, moved.


    Aquasteed also took Ferres'' attack with his sword, but he was on the defensive side.


    "Your Highness Ferres, Master Lilliage is there!


    "Ferres!"


    So put your sword away, Aquasteed screams. But that voice doesn''t seem to have arrived, and Ferres'' attacking hand will never be loosened.


    The flowing swordsmanship was an ancient era swordsmanship in which no more users existed.


    - Strong.


    On the defensive side, it may not hold for long. A slender sword like Rapier launches an attack with an emphasis on speed. If that''s all, I can take Aquasteed as well. But this sword uses magic that increases speed.


    The sword wielded cuts the air at the same time, and it becomes a deception and scratches the Aquasteed unprotected.


    More scratches on cheeks, arms, body, shallow but definite.


    ''Ferres, stop... Huh! Aquasteed, you''ll be hit as it is!


    "I know, I''m here... eh"


    Lilliage screams, like you can''t watch anymore. I am trembling anxiously that just preventing Ferres from attacking will kill Aquasteed.


    But Aquasteed never tries to attack Ferres.


    Because - to Ferres, I am sworn to a covenant not to betray you. That''s the condition when you created the Star Sky Ring for Tiara Rose.


    There''s also that, and Aquasteed wants to get Ferres back to sanity somehow without an attack. I''ve called many times, but I don''t even know if my voice is reaching Ferres.


    "Lord Ferres, please go back to your sanity!


    "... Ferres, Aquasteed. Dear Olivia, I will go under Ferres''


    "Come on."


    As determined as something was, Lilliage gained momentum and got out of Olivia''s arms. Unable to cope suddenly, Olivia reached out screaming "Dear Lilliage," but could not touch Lilliage.


    The bracelet he held folds with his mouth, lands on the ground with a light body and Lilliage makes a fierce dash toward the Aquasteeds. Momentum kicked up the ground as it was, jumping high and landing over Aquasteed''s head.


    "...... Huh!? Dear Liliage!?"


    Without even flickering at the sword and sword bumping sound of a kid, Lilliage stares at Ferres looking insane.


    ''Ferres, you can''t go back to sanity if you look at me so close. I miss you. But I''ll help you.''


    "How do you make it sane......"


    ''I have an idea. Bracelet, please.''


    Placing his bracelet over Aquasteed''s head, Lilliage jumps to Ferres according to the timing when Ferres drew his sword.


    I rush to hold the bracelet placed on my head and see what the hell I''m going to do with it, Lilliage.


    "... Become!?"


    "Ferres!"


    Lilliage''s mundane body stuck to Ferres'' face.


    !?


    To that sudden action, everyone loses their words. I never thought I''d use such hard means. But for what it''s worth, Ferres'' movement stops for a moment.


    Aquasteed flies big back and takes a constant distance from Ferres.


    Then, gradually, Lilliage''s body grew much bigger.


    "Duh, what''s going on, Master Aquasteed!


    "I don''t know either, but if I were to put my bracelet on His Highness Ferres, it would be now"


    Ferres is trying to peel the lilyage off his face, but that movement weakens as the body of the lilyage grows larger.


    "That would be the wife you loved......! Please get your sanity back!!"


    Aquasteed takes a gap and puts a bracelet on Ferres'' wrist. Feeling like praying, please, please, I hope you recognize me about Lilliage.


    Lilliage, who saw his bracelet put on, left Ferres and landed on the ground.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Your Highness Ferres......?


    "Aquasteed, huh?


    "Good, you''re back to sanity"


    Ferres'' eyes, calling Aquasteed''s name, regained light from the pitch black to the original golden color.


    And soon, I look at the lilyage sitting still beside me and open my eyes. Lilliage, which was the size she could hold, was still slowly growing over a metre in size.


    Aquasteed watches Ferres and Lilliage, wondering if things are going pretty badly.


    Ferres crouched to his knees and lovingly embraced Lilliage.


    "Oh, Lilia. ¡­ did you take my power with you? Lilia''s body said it was the limit."


    "Limits?"


    "Yes. Me and Lilia have been here forever. Lilia embraced a force I couldn''t control, but there''s no way that would keep it all the time. Lilia was at her limit."


    Rather than Ferres suffering, Lilliage continued to embrace its overflowing power all the way through the rings of the starry sky.


    That''s only when I lost the concept of a liriage person.


    "Lilia, who accepted too much of my power, has become a being called a monster. I''m no longer a person, but my heart is sweet...... I stayed Lilia"


    "My lord Ferres, it''s..."


    "Between these sealed kings, monsters are sealed."


    The words rose to the back of Aquasteed''s brain.


    And at the same time, I realize that''s a liriage. I can''t believe the first queen was that monster.


    However, there is no material between the First King and the Queen, and the portrait is not decorated.


    - Kings obliterated of existence, huh?


    Realizing that our own masters were not human, I guess the ministers tried to kill Ferres and Lilliage.


    I mean, I was betrayed by a man I trusted.


    - Is that why you made me swear a covenant?


    I guess the only thing Ferres believes is Lilliage.


    "That''s right. Lilia is a monster sealed in the land."


    When Ferres told him so in a lonely voice, Lilliage roared ''Gaaaaaa''. The air swayed and breathless pressure wrapped around him.


    And that body, it''s not a cute change that means don''t grow up - it just changes its appearance as a monster.


    "Lilia!


    "Your Highness Ferres, it''s dangerous... Huh!


    Aquasteed takes the arm of Ferres, who calls desperately, and returns to the entrance where Elliott and the others are. The recoil that sucked Ferres'' power away, or now Lilliage has lost her sanity.


    "Lilia, Lilia...... Huh! Even if she changed her appearance, even though Lilia never forgot me."


    Ferres looked desperate to see her lose herself in this way - again, shouting the name of her beloved wife.

 72 12. Ferres Wishes

    What the hell am I supposed to describe that?


    also didn''t look like an animal that was always cute, and Lilliage just turned that into a monster. The size is loosely over five meters, with the rounded corners pointing upwards. The corners rubbed against the ceiling, paralysing and small fragments dropped.


    Ferres flutters, facing Lilliage - but is attacked by Lilliage with flaming magic. Immediately, he stretches his boundaries, wondering what''s wrong, but suddenly a great force strikes down Ferres.


    "... ugh, ku"


    Ferres and Lilliage are connected by a ring in the starry sky.


    Lilliage''s loss of self destabilized the connection through the ring. From there it struck Ferres himself, as if the power of Lilliage were to reflux.


    Because of its bitterness, Ferres endures by kneeling and nodding.


    "Huh!?"


    Even if Aquasteed soon notices Ferres'' anomaly, he can''t make a move because the magic of Lilliage rolls out one after the other.


    The magic played out of Lilliage is unrestricted. Perfect with fairies, she can manipulate all magic with ease.


    It also has a calm personality and doesn''t usually use aggressive magic - but if you think in terms of magical power, it would outweigh the power of Ferres as well.


    Aquasteed is also good at magic, but in one way or another it is specialized in attack.


    If you find out the monster is a Lilliage, you can''t even take him down. If the war continues like this, it will be a pretty tough fight.


    - If we don''t do something, neither His Highness Ferres nor Master Lilliage can help.


    Somehow, we have to figure out a way to help. With that in mind, Aquasteed desperately carried out the magic of Lilliage.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Keith, let''s hurry! I''m worried about Aqua!


    He said, "I know."


    As the Aquasteeds struggled with Lilliage, who turned into a monster, Tiara Rose was sealed with Keith and running between kings.


    I''m supposed to just come home with my bracelet on Ferres, but Tiara Rose, who got the Fairy King of the Woods ring, was back a long time earlier.


    At first I was waiting for everyone to return, but I thought it was just too late and decided to take Keith down to Ferres.


    If it was true, it was supposed to help revive the withered plants with the returned Aquasteed... but that''s going to be a little later.


    Keith runs the lead and Tiara Rose is the shape that follows......


    - Keith, you''re fast legged... Huh!


    Ha-ha-ha. Tiara Rose desperately following me with disturbing breath, but I didn''t expect to eat a cliche like this that I haven''t usually exercised.


    I should have rushed it early, but Keith and I reversed our position.


    "Damn, I don''t know what else to do"


    "Huh? Come on."


    Hurry up, won''t you? Keith, who said so, took Tiara Rose up like a mound. Tiara Rose, who doesn''t think it''s an act to do against a royal woman, is likely to scream, but her health is already limited, making it difficult to keep running.


    "... ugly"


    "I''ll take you with me, so be nice. Or do you want a hug?


    "You can keep this up!


    Tiara Rose screams, not wanting to be held sideways besides Aquasteed.


    "Oh, my God, that''s a lot more important."


    "If it breaks out, Keith is going to be amused and flaunted. He was better off. That''s why I''m making a big deal out of him!


    "Ha ha, I see"


    When Keith heard the words and laughed, they were sealed and ran out between kings.


    And run for a while, and the two get to their destination. Outside the door, to Elliot, Olivia and Levy seemed to be watching what was going on inside.


    I wonder what the hell you''re doing, Tiara Rose approached the three of them.


    "Dear Olivia!


    "Well Dear Tiara Rose!! You''re safe and above all. Does this mean you''re here...?


    "Yeah. Keith gave me the ring."


    "Wow, beautiful..."


    When I showed him the ring of the Fairy King in the Woods I got, Olivia sparkled her eyes, as usual. But soon, he said, "It''s not the other way around!," he pointed in the door as he panicked.


    ¡­¡­


    "Hmm?"


    Tiara Rose and Keith peek inside, breathtaking. There''s the black monster and the aquasteed that keeps sending that attack. There was Ferres looking at the situation in a blind way.


    I wonder what the hell is going on, Tiara Rose, but I realize that it could have been a sealed monster.


    "Shit, I didn''t expect Lilia to lose herself."


    "Oh, Master Lilia!?"


    True black, but completely different in size and corner shape.


    I''m surprised at Keith''s words, but that serious look doesn''t look like he''s lying. Definitely Lilia. Aquasteed and Ferres are in danger if we don''t do something about it.


    Tell the conceived Tiara Rose that Olivia and Elliot were this place.


    To help Ferres lose his sanity, Lilliage accepted enough power to exceed his tolerance.


    As a result, Lilliage woke up as a real monster.


    "No way... how can I undo Master Lilia"


    "I don''t know. This offense has been going on for over fifteen minutes now."


    "Fifteen minutes..."


    Then Aquasteed drains his health and loses.


    "Keith, is there no way to help Master Lilia? Somehow, I want to help."


    But I shook my head with a look of regret.


    "If I could do that, I''d do something about it a long time ago. With the power of our Fairy King, we can''t help. The truth is, before Lilia did this... we tried to discuss it."


    "... Huh!


    "Of course, Ferres did everything he could to stop it. But that''s all I''ve got."


    "You can''t do that!


    The option of abandoning Lilliage is not among the Tiara Roses.


    Even though what''s happening in front of you is real, this is the world of Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, a maiden game that Tiara Rose loves.


    There''s got to be a way to be a happy ending somewhere.


    Tell yourself that and explore measures.


    Lilliage, who is unleashing magic against Aquasteed, looks lonely somewhere. Absolutely, I want my usual smile back.


    And secondly, Tiara Rose is in Lilliage''s hands - pay attention to her fingertips. Though the long stretched nails were sharp and horrible, a closer look put the ring on.


    That''s the Ring of the Starry Sky of Lilliage, which Lilliage usually used to necklace and lower from her neck.


    The moment I captured it in my sight, Tiara Rose''s starry sky ring glowed pale.


    - Maybe we can help Master Lilia out.


    The rings of the starry sky held by Tiara Rose and the rings of the starry sky held by Lilliage resonate. Even when we first met, the rings of the starry sky led us under the Lilliage.


    Lilliage was also able to get out of this place and come under Tiara Rose because of the resonance of the ring.


    I''m sure this ring would help Lilliage.


    "Tiara, Aquasteed won''t keep you if you just stay like this - so what are you thinking"


    "... that only I can do"


    Attack Lilliage, Keith tried to tell him so... but the words were swallowed up and never uttered as if they were sucked into Tiara Rose''s serious eyes.


    Passing next to Keith, Tiara Rose tries to go under Lilliage. To Tiara Rose, who looks serious, Keith is bewildered to stop. But it was Elliot who reacted immediately to that.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, please step back because it is dangerous! If anything happens to Tiara Rose, Aquasteed will be saddened."


    "I can''t. Tiara''s got some weird stubbornness, and she''s never gonna get away with it."


    To Elliot in panic, Keith laughs and says it''s useless.


    Olivia wasn''t going to stop it from the beginning, but she was getting some different feeling about "it''s like heroin".


    - I don''t know if I can do it well.


    But I''m the only one who can save Lilliage right now. Tiara Rose stares at the ring of the starry sky and softly mouths the gem at its center.


    "O rings of the starry sky - connect the lines with the rings of the starry sky held by Master Lilliage, and give me that overflowing power!


    If Lilliage is so powerful that she can''t support it, she can support it both of us, not one. Let me help you with that, Tiara Rose prays to the ring.


    Then a pale light swept through the sky to create a space like the night sky.


    Aquasteed, who immediately noticed the anomaly, sees the entrance - Tiara Rose. And I see the unusual power of magic pouring into Tiara Rose, screaming in a hurry.


    "Tiara, what are you doing...!


    Don''t because you don''t know what''s going to happen, Aquasteed says, but Tiara Rose''s determination is stiff. He shakes his head quietly and smiles that he never stops.


    "I am the Queen of His Highness Aquasteed. Together, we stand ready to carry our country."


    If this body here cannot accept power and decay, then it must be human until then.


    But Tiara Rose in the position of Villain Lady has a chance. Keith also said there would be vessels that would accept massive amounts of force.


    Besides, I bet.


    "Tiara, Tiara Rose......"


    "Your Highness, Aquasteed, and Master Lilliage, let''s cut it off."


    That''s how enormous power poured into Tiara Rose at once.


    At the same time, the movement of the Lilliage, which was in a series of magic, stops. My body gets smaller just for the amount of force flowing into Tiara Rose. The sharp corners gradually begin to round up.


    "... haha"


    "Tiara!"


    Aquasteed embraces and supports Tiara Rose as she is about to fall into the heat of unfamiliar magic.


    Tiara Rose sweating, but accepting diligently. Aquasteed continued to support Tiara Rose, as he prayed not to just be impotent.


    The first change came from Ferres.


    The flow of force that was refluxing stops, giving a little leeway back to the look on his face that seemed painful. Trying to drag the body that weighs in, Ferres heads under Lilliage.


    Ferres bursts into tears embracing his trembling Lilliage body. And over and over again, say "sorry" and apologize.


    When the two smiled, Lilliage returned to her original size and at the same time stopped the force that was flowing to Tiara Rose.


    Tiara Rose strokes her chest down, hoping the two of them were safe.


    But more than that, Aquasteed was relieved that Tiara Rose was safe.


    "Tiara, don''t be impotent all of a sudden. I thought my heart would stop."


    "But thank you for believing in me and not stopping. It''s a pleasure to save Master Lilia."


    "Oh......"


    Aquasteed agrees. No, everyone here would be relieved that it turned out best.


    Tiara Rose got the Fairy King of the Woods ring and the Aquasteeds were able to undo Ferres. The disappeared stars will return to the sky and Marine Forest will return to a peaceful and rich country again.


    Aquasteed thinks about what''s to come, even though he supports Tiara Rose, who is tired and flustered, but still has a pile to do... but now that I''ve seen the two happy people leaning in, I just want to watch them.


    Can we make this country happy even though Ferres and Lilliage are not happy?


    In order for the country to be happy, Aquasteed thinks it is conditional on everyone being happy, both themselves and the people.


    And for Aquasteed to be happy, there has to be Tiara Rose.


    "Dear Aqua?


    "Thank you, Tiara. Tiara seems essential to me and to this country."


    "Ha-ha-ha, if it''s Aqua-like"


    Make sure you tangle your fingers, and Aquasteed rubs Tiara Rose''s hand. The gaze of the two, though, remains directed at the happy Ferres and Lilliage.


    Touching the lyriage of crying Egg Egg, Ferres says he contradicted himself by saying "Don''t cry" while crying too.


    The sight is somewhere smiling and warm. I don''t think very much that it was the two of us that were so rampaged up until earlier, I still wonder if this is what it is, and Tiara Rose gets her chest hot.


    "... Ferres, I finally see Ferres'' face"


    Show your face better, Lilliage begs. That''s the same with Ferres, staring at each other.


    "It''s been a long time since I''ve heard Lilia''s voice"


    ''I''m sorry I left you alone for so long...''


    "That''s my dialogue. Because I tied Lilia up as my queen. If I were stronger, I''d put so much strain on Lilia."


    "I won''t tell you that, I promise,"


    Lilliage''s mundane little hand touches Ferres'' lips, ''No, you can''t,'' he said.


    "I''m with Ferres, even if it''s going to decay."


    "Yeah, yeah...... Thanks, Lilia."


    With a quiet tear, Ferres mouths gently to Lilliage.


    "Thanks for staying with me"


    "Yes."


    "And please, stay with me"


    "Of course, sir."


    The two tears mixed together, and they glowed small as if to bless something.

 73 13. A New Celebration Festival

    Ferres and Lilliage restore stability, sealed and from among kings the Tiararose return to the royal castle. Looking outside, the sun is already falling, dark.


    "... Dear Aqua, the starry sky is returning"


    Tiara Rose ran to the window and looked up at the starry sky.


    Smile for the Aquasteeds, saying it''s more beautiful than any starry sky you''ve ever seen. Soon Aquasteed and Olivia will come and see the sky in the same way.


    "Good. But I have to get Tiara Rose to do another job"


    Tiara Rose nods and shows Aquasteed that she has no problem telling her to care about her health.


    "Yes, we will be ready shortly"


    "I''m sorry, please"


    "I will help you too, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Thank you, Master Olivia"


    Olivia offered to help Tiara Rose as she tried to go back to her room to get dressed. I honestly appreciated it, so Tiara Rose rushed to her room with Olivia. Levi, the butler, also tried to follow him, but Olivia was ordered to leave a message because he was dressed.


    "I''m getting ready, too. Master Aquasteed, please get dressed quickly."


    "Oh, I know. Prepare yourself."


    From now on, we will pray for abundance, with Tiara Rose as the main body. It''s just like a daytime speech and it''s too steep, but there''s not a single reason you can delay it.


    It is only by informing the people, but not many people may get together.


    Well, get dressed - yes, Aquasteed tried to make a move, but Ferres got eyes on me looking around for a moment.


    He came out of the kings, sealed with Lilliage, because his strength had stabilized. I laugh bitterly that it will be interesting because it has been about 1500 years since I was king.


    Even though you don''t look like a person because you''re a ghost, you can''t just leave it alone. I felt uncomfortable trying to speak to Ferres to go with me.


    "... hmm?


    Olivia told me to leave a message, and Levi was watching Ferres. You''re not supposed to see it, are you?


    What do you mean, Aquasteed tilts his neck.


    "Levi, what are you looking at?


    "My lord Ferres. The first king is more liberal than I thought."


    "Can you see it?


    "Yes, it''s all over the place."


    Aquasteed holds his head wondering if he would have seen himself or if he hadn''t touched the Fairy King. but there''s nothing like someone taking a look at me because I don''t have a portrait of the first king.


    If it is strong and there is a problem, is it about the point that the face looks just like Aquasteed?


    "Oh, do you see me? The power''s stabilized, Lilia''s here, and I''m in great shape."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Hahaha laughing Ferres can be such a bright personality by nature. also hugging the mundane liriage, he says, "You''ve changed."


    ''It''s been a long time since we lived. No matter what, food, especially sweets, is delicious! I want Ferres to eat it, too.''


    "The food? Looking forward to it."


    Seeing the two shags, Aquasteed blurred wondering if the ghost could eat.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Tiara Rose took a bath with Olivia and dressed herself in her outfit as she helped Philine, who was waiting for her.


    Not a pretty dress as usual, but a majestic low waist silhouette dress.


    Fine pure white fabric, carefully embroidered with thin golden yarn. A simple race drew on the presence of Tiara Rose.


    And the place is the same place Aquasteed gave a speech during the day. I thought it might keep the people waiting more, but I was relieved to be able to finish it as quickly as possible.


    "Tiara"


    "Dear Aqua!


    What greeted me out was the equally dressed aquasteed. Immediately take Tiara Rose''s hand and escort.


    Here, besides Aquasteed, there is a king. Ferres and Lilliage are not here because they are in Aquasteed''s room.


    "You both did a great job. I didn''t expect my own son to be so fine. I regret that I couldn''t make it, but I''m going to be able to fly with more joy than that."


    "Father..."


    "Come on, the people are waiting. Both of you, show him your faces quickly."


    That''s what Sotiris says and pushes the two backs.


    "Thanks"


    Sotiris smiles with great satisfaction as he utters his words of gratitude. And he looked lovingly at the two cheering sons from the people.


    When I went out on the balcony, the voices of the people overflowed saying wowwwwwww. Even though it was late at night, there were more people in the square than during the day.


    Everyone was thinking about believing in Tiara Rose and Aquasteed and making sure they could rush right away if anything happened.


    A few days, maybe months, they''ll wait more. The anxiety of such a people was blown away in this moment. I can''t believe you two can see each other again so soon.


    When Tiara Rose and Aquasteed wave, the voice grows even louder and shivers the air.


    "Thank you for coming together at this late hour"


    Using the ring of the Fairy King in the sky, Aquasteed uttered the word.


    Then everyone closes their mouths and clears their ears to miss that voice. And I wonder what''s going to be reported, making my chest squeal.


    Of course, the people know that the stars are back in the night sky, so they think it would be about that.


    But reality is more of a miracle than that.


    "It would be quicker to see the actual sight than I tell you something....... Tiara Rose"


    "Yes, Your Highness Aquasteed"


    Tiara Rose, wrapped in pure white dress, is like a goddess. The people breathe and squirm about what the hell is going to be done.


    If the starry sky is to report back, Aquasteed, Prince Wang, tells us. But Tiara Rose, the Queen, came forward.


    The only woman in this country who is blessed with a forest fairy and a king who can unite it.


    There was no way that there was anything, and the people gathered had excessive expectations. But Tiara Rose is going to make it easy for her to imagine it.


    Tiara Rose closed her eyes softly, hand in hand to pray, without saying anything.


    Then the pale light envelops Tiara Rose. The source of this is the Fairy King''s Ring in the Woods, which Tiara Rose is wearing.


    "This is... what the hell is going on?


    "Was Tiara Rose a goddess?!?"


    A small voice rises from the center of the people.


    The light gradually grew larger, and it seemed to sublime to a single pillar, which was very fantastic. I can''t see the beginning of the light stretching everywhere, and after a while the miracle happens.


    The light emanating from Tiara Rose descended from the far sky onto this earth, as if it were the birth of life.


    Who was the first person to raise his voice?


    "From the touch of light, buds have grown!!"


    "Beautiful light, wow...... Huh!


    "It''s a miracle. Can you do this if you are blessed by the Fairy King of the Woods"


    At the same time, the dead plant regained its power and put on a new stump. Everyone is nailed to Tiara Rose by the power the world plays.


    That''s Aquasteed with you, too.


    "Is there so much power in the ring of the Fairy King of the Woods"


    Aquasteed gets a voice about how amazing it is, more than the Fairy King in the sky, more than the Fairy King in the sea. More, to the country, to Tiara Rose, the loving taste comes as we look at the plaza where the grass sprouts.


    "Thank you, Tiara"


    "Dear Aqua,... No, I just did what I deserved. Above all, maybe he wanted to give back to Aqua and this country for giving me a place."


    "Hmm? I asked Tiara to marry me because I loved her. There''s nothing like that."


    Aquasteed''s fingertips gently touch Tiara Rose''s hand. And mouth the back of it.


    "Ah, Dear Aqua... Everyone is watching"


    So embarrassing, Tiara Rose complains - the word is unacceptable.


    "Give me Tiara''s blessing, too"


    "-!"


    With that said, Aquasteed speaks to Tiara Rose.


    There is no Tiara Rose blessing, so what a convenient dialogue. But Aquasteed''s lips are very gentle and warm.


    If you noticed, Tiara Rose was open to mouth-watering.


    "Wow, that''s hot."


    Ferres, don''t make fun of me.


    "Well, I have Lilia."


    "... Already"


    Large single tree with balcony with tiara rose and aquasteed visible. On that thick branch, Ferres and Lilliage, Keith and Claire calmed down and watched the two of them.


    Ferres laughs happily when he sees his descendants performing their duties in splendor.


    "For starters, is this one paragraph"


    "Right. Lilia''s calm, and you''re gonna have it for a while, right?


    ''Cause Tiara has taken on quite a bit of power. I think it will hold quite a bit''


    Keith agrees with Claire''s words, and Lilliage nods too. Though I don''t know the clear numbers, you can assume I will have them in hundreds of years.


    Nevertheless, Claire turns her gaze to Ferres and Lilliage.


    "What are you going to do when you get out of the basement? I''m not gonna take care of you two, am I?


    "No, you''re right. I''m surprised it''s sealed and out of the kings, but Lilia, who was sealed, is free."


    Claire tells me that there is no place for Ferres in the royal castle and that she does not intend to be involved in any trouble. Ferres laughs bitterly as he says, "You''re an asshole."


    "Nothing, I''m not going to let you two take care of me. Lilia and I are going to travel inside Marine Forest. I want to see what''s going on with this country we built..."


    "Oh well. Then I won''t stop you. But call us as soon as you feel weird."


    "Of course."


    Ferres, who died without seeing much of the country, couldn''t help but worry about Marine Forest.


    Monetary aspects don''t matter. There''s a treasure stash that only Ferres grasps, and it''ll be fun to go through working if you have to.


    Keith and Claire loosen their cheeks as they sighed at Ferres, who looked like they were having fun.


    "Oh? Looks like the ring''s over and we''re going to start something."


    "Oh, I guess about that"


    "How do you know only Claire?"


    "My weapon is information. It''s as light as this."


    Not knowing what to do, Keith turns his gaze to the Tiara Roses as he rots. Ferres and Lilliage don''t seem to know the contents either, softly watching what''s going on.


    And Aquasteed''s voice echoes all around him.


    "Today we decided to set this day for the celebration day that Marine Forest regenerated. Every year, I''m going to give the country a festival."


    When Aquasteed tells us, the people will see more excitement.


    "Join Tiara Rose for a treat tournament. Of course, this year. I want you to be excited because you are not eligible to participate and are able to enter as individuals or teams of up to three."


    He went on to post details all over the city and was told that the event was in a month''s time.


    ''Confectionery, it''s delicious, isn''t it? I''ve loved it since Tiara Rose fed me. I''m looking forward to it.''


    Ferres laughs as Lilliage slaps her hand and shakes. I went straight around behind Keith and Claire, turned my arm around my neck and grabbed it disappointingly.


    "All right, let''s join that confectionery competition too!


    "Ahhhh!?"


    "Why would you do that..."


    It was a team of three, and Ferres laughed refreshingly.

 74 14. Turbulent Suites Games

    Participant Requirements for Sweet Games


    ¡¤ There are no restrictions on participation, including identity and age.


    However, if the contestants are at least thirty sets, qualifications shall be held.


    ¡¤ Participate individually, or in teams of no more than three.


    If the contestant declares the materials to be used in advance, he/she will receive payment.


    -The judges will be conducted by the public and will vote on treats they like.


    Note that there are special judges, but only special awards will be judged.


    Therefore, a simple overview was posted to various parts of Marine Forest. At the same time, it quickly becomes a festive mode of giving the country away.


    Though I thought it would be better to get a couple dozen sets together because I couldn''t afford that much on the schedule, the Tiara Roses applied more than expected and the qualifiers were held.


    Qualifying takes place in their respective cities and villages, with a final set of appearances of thirty-two. Tiara Rose is looking forward to now that most of them are civilians who are restaurants and are going to be very excited.


    And, of course, Tiara Rose will compete.


    There are three members of the Tiara Rose team: Tiara Rose, Acari and Olivia.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    In a calm reception room. Sirius is listening with a smile and smile to the voice of the hagga clam and to Tiara Rose, who hammers at it.


    Next door, Aquasteed and Halt Knights are drinking tea in a tired manner. Aquasteed prepares for the Sweet Games, Halt Knights is tired of traveling on the road.


    It would be about Acari and Sirius who are healthy.


    "No way, I didn''t expect to come to Marine Forest to call it a honeymoon"


    Aquasteed looks at Halt Knights in a slightly dazed manner. Then he shrugged his shoulder, "Even I am," he said.


    "Akali said Marine Forest was really good. Besides, Sirius had to remember diplomacy too, so I brought him in."


    "Right."


    "If you''re going to have a royally-sponsored festival in Marine Forest, you''ll love it."


    Aquasteed nods, for sure, because he will be the next king of the Lapis Lazuli kingdom. With guests, the festival would be even more exciting.


    After the festival, Sirius returned home alone and Akali and Haltonites told him they would be touring Marine Forest for a while.


    "The real deal at the Sweets Games is tomorrow, right? Dear Tiara, have you decided what to make?


    "Yeah, I got a recipe for you once."


    "Then we''ll have to have an ops conference later!


    If it''s a special Tiara Rose recipe, the acari makes your voice play when you can expect quite a bit. I didn''t think I had reached the Royal Castle in Marine Forest earlier and jumped into Tiara Rose and volunteered to participate.


    "I wanted you on the team, too," Sirius drops his shoulder as he sees how it goes. But the limit is no more than three teams, so I can''t help it.


    "Speaking of which, what happened to the qualifying round?


    "Of course, I competed and won"


    "At that time, Levi was on the same team."


    Tiara Rose and Olivia answer Acari''s question.


    Levy was only a butler doing Olivia''s impossibility, and the cooking skills were perfect. It''s a foam that makes meringues, so much so that I wanted to show you the high speed of the vessel.


    It was Aquasteed and Halt Knights, who I think is well, seeing those women.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The next day, the Success Suites Games were held.


    The Tiara Roses have prepared pastry clothes for today, full of both appearance and contents.


    Team ¢Ù is Tiara Rose, Acari and Olivia.


    Team ¢Ú includes Ferres, Keith and Crail.


    Team ¢Û was Hultonites and Sirius, who jumped in as national guests.


    In addition, there is a high level of participation from the general public. In addition, there was a young lady bringing her own chef and a cook wearing a mask if she didn''t want to show her face.


    "Wow, that''s exciting! Enjoy now!!"


    Shagu Akali heads to the cooking space just set up in the square. And the Tiara Roses followed, and all the participants arrived at the placement.


    Confirm it and the man in charge of the MC declares it exalted.


    "So, the first sweet tournament - here we go!


    Pan and a declaration of opening was made when magic was struck out like fireworks. There are plenty of galleries around the square, and I''m looking forward to seeing what kind of treats they can offer.


    "Okay, good luck! Dear Acari, Dear Olivia!


    "Yes, why don''t we form a circle?


    "Nice, feel like a team!


    To the temperament tiara rose, Olivia suggested a circle and Akali got on with it. The three of us circle, gaze at each other and nod.


    Ahead of wondering if Tiara Rose should say anything, the acari inhaled his breath deeply.


    "You can''t beat anyone. Ooh!


    "Oh...!


    "Ha, the heroine of the lapis lazuli ring and the tag of the villain warrant...... excited eh"


    Tiara Rose trembles on her shoulders in a rather temperamental clam scream. And Olivia, who joined the circle, was bored by the combination of these two teams. Plus Alpha to be exact because I have myself, too, but I don''t care there.


    "Now let''s get to it! What we make is hall cakes and candy for decorations!


    "Me and Tiara Rose are in charge of the cake part, and Akali is in charge of the candy maker."


    Since the judges are the people, we also need to have a few. Assign roles among themselves and work smoothly.


    The acari magically melted the candy and let it freely shape and perform as well. A huge applause comes from the audience who saw it, getting in better shape and finishing more and more of the massive candy work.


    Seeing that, Tiara Rose laughed one bitterly that she was going to be able to do some pretty fancy finishing cakes.


    ''Each team, you''re making more and more treats. Here, let me introduce you to the special judges! I am Queen Lavina to His Majesty Sotiris. It is a great honor for both sires to eat! And the chef and deputy chef of my royal castle. Then, I am Dear Liliage, friend of Dear Tiara Rose!!''


    Unexpectedly Tiara Rose erupts into the MC''s words on the way in.


    "Hey, why is Master Lilia being a special judge!? Besides, you''re being introduced as my friend...!


    ''Hey, that''s Tiara Rose''s friend. You look very adorable. He''s an animal I''ve never seen, so maybe he''s close to a fairy!


    Without realizing the rushing Tiara Rose, MC introduces Lilliage. Ferres, who sees that happening, laughs ticklishly and says, "It''s okay."


    Looking at those who spoke, the adjacent booth of the Tiara Roses was the Ferres team''s cooking table.


    "Me and Lilia decided to take a look around Marine Forest. With the title of Tiara Rose''s friend, you''d be very receptive to the unusual looking Lilia, too, wouldn''t you?


    That''s why I took this opportunity to reveal, Ferres tells me. Indeed, that decision would be correct in view of the future.


    "That may be... I''m afraid I''m a friend of Lilia''s. Of course, I think so."


    "If you could be my friend, I''d be happy to. I''ve missed Lilia so much."


    "His Highness Ferres......"


    So do me a favor, Ferres. Ask me straight away.


    "It''s an honor to say so. I want to be close to Lilia all the time."


    "Dear Ferres, don''t forget I''m here too!


    "Oh, a maiden with holy prayers? Lilia tells me you dropped the bracelet stain, thank you."


    Ferres smiles and says thank you when Akali makes his name out with his hands up. And I also turned my gaze to Olivia and said hello to the three of them.


    "Hey, Ferres, how long have you been talking to the enemy team? Do something about this candy over here."


    "-Keith. I was just talking about Lilia... but if you don''t make it, you''re gonna pass the three-hour limit."


    Telling him to resume cooking, Tiara Rose and Ferres went back to cooking, respectively. And soon to be moved, Tiara Rose''s hand. Ferres admires the kind of movement that exists to make sweets.


    "The women''s team is amazing... we can''t lose, either"


    "If so, move your hands. You said Lilia wanted to make cupcakes, right? Well, Ferres. You really can make sweets."


    "Mm, I''m sure you''ll be fine"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Keith and Claire sighed to Ferres, who smiled and told him they thought they could handle it.


    "Hey, brother... I''m too clumsy"


    "Damn, this shouldn''t be..."


    The Haltnights and Sirius teams had been able to expose the audience due to their poor handling. The audience would have easily turned their backs if they were civilians, but the two were guests in the royal family of neighboring Lapis Lazuli. Something must not happen.


    As a result, I was able to construct a structure for watching quietly¡­


    "Ahhh, it crumbled again..."


    Something in Halt Knights'' hands crumbles because the force is not applied well. Bright pink, it would be a macaroon that could have become a macaroon.


    The meringue part that forms the foundation of the macaroon, without so much burning...... could be done beautifully there. Ganache was also mellow made and it was very tasty when Sirius tasted it.


    So Haltnites and Sirius thought they could do a macaroon with no problems. of, but at the end of the day, Haltnites showed clumsiness with what could be described as the easiest affirmation of pinching Ganache with meringue.


    Too strong a finger, many crushed macarons.


    "... it''s the first time I''ve made confectionery, so I won''t have a choice. I mean, Sirius, you were clever."


    "Compared to your brother, anyone can fall into the clever category."


    Halt Knights with crushed macarons on his ass, Sirius creates a beautiful macaroon.


    "I''m new to Marine Forest, so I can''t look terrible. Besides, Sister Tiara Rose will eat this macaroon."


    Having said that, Sirius wrapped three macarons separately that were able to do well at the moment.


    "Hey, hey, Dear Tiara, Dear Olivia"


    "What''s wrong? Dear Acari,"


    Acari, who had finished making candy finishes, urged him to look there with an eye on one point. Olivia responds instead of Tiara Rose, who is focused on decorating the cake.


    The place Akali showed the players competing individually were doing more work. The handiwork was very vibrant, laying raw cream on top of the Danish dough and decorating the flowers of Tiara Rose, fruit and national flowers.


    Olivia whines "sounds delicious" by accident, but soon loses her words.


    Because a man who was cooking was wearing a mask. Maybe you don''t want to expose your face, but the black mask is badly noticeable.


    "Who the hell is this? It doesn''t suit the mask, and the Danish cake I''m making looks really good."


    "I totally agree that it looks delicious.... but that mask didn''t come out of the game, and isn''t it a particularly important person?


    Olivia concludes that it would not be a character with a name located in the main character or sub. If it''s an unnamed mob, Olivia doesn''t mind otherwise.


    Though tension maxes at once if this is a character to be attacked by others.


    "Well, you sure don''t seem like an important person. But it looks delicious. I think I''ll be happy for the day when I come out for breakfast."


    "Sure, you have that. If you have a store somewhere, I think you''ll be on the market soon."


    When Akali is talking to Olivia about being excited, Tiara Rose''s voice is "Both of us ~".


    "If you''re free, please help me! I''ll make as much cake as I can so a lot of people can eat it. Master Akali should apply cream to the sponge. I decorate with cream. Olivia, decorate the candy workmanship made by Acari and wrap it around a ribbon made of chocolate."


    "Ok!"


    "Okay."


    Tiara Rose gives instructions that this is not the case with other participants. I usually make sweets out of it, but now I make them very lively.


    The three of us had just created five hole cakes, and there was a bell that informed us of the time limit.

 75 15. Land of Happiness Marine Forest

    Each team simultaneously placed the treats on the platform of the square, signaling the sound of a bell ending the Sweets Games. Confirm that and explain the method of vetting to the audience gathered by the MC man.


    ''Come on, they all look like delicious treats. It is up to all of you to judge this! Have a tasting and give the flowers prepared to the team that made your favorite treat. The team that won this flower the most will win!


    The flowers prepared are small pink flowers. With so many people in charge of judging having those flowers, the team that shines in the victory will be made of flowers.


    "The winning dawn will receive a medal as a royal servant, as I was told."


    As soon as the MC told him so, the cheer boiled down.


    A royal servant is not such an easy title to obtain. Credit is also involved in ongoing business. Even if we start doing business and we''re on track, we have to show our strength to keep the status quo going for a few years.


    ''And besides winning, there are special judges'' awards! This is an award given to one team by both sires, the head chef and deputy head chef, and Master Lilliage. At a royally-sponsored night club, the selected treats will be lined up as desserts!


    The special prize also gives me a great deal of voice. Either way, it''s a great honor to be chosen, and anyone who runs a restaurant will want an award so much that they can get their hands out of their throat.


    In addition, there are side awards such as prizes and ornaments.


    Thus, a taste review began.


    Those who became judges rushed under the confectionery, and the confectionery that was supposed to be plentiful disappeared. Everyone says, "Yummy!," he blossoms into conversation about which is his favorite treat.


    "It''s nice to have a loop in the sweets like this."


    Tiara Rose looks at the people who eat sweets happily and smiles. But at the same time, I''m going to regret it somewhere. The reason is simple. Because I participated as an athlete, I was unable to participate as a judge who could eat a lot of sweets.


    He shrugged so that no one could hear him as he put his hand on his cheek to see if he had failed.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    All the treats were arranged before the King Sotiris, who served as special judges. That all looks delicious and brightly colored.


    Scrutinize your appearance first, while somehow curbing the urge to eat immediately.


    "They''re all great and very difficult to judge. Speaking of what catches my eye in this, is it still the team of the Tiara Roses? Very brilliant candy maker."


    "Yeah, really. It''s amazing because you can even make sweets, not just upbringing as a queen. Thanks to Tiara Rose, the dessert situation in this country has become very rich."


    "Right."


    In addition, cakes with finely shredded chocolate and Madeleine, who looked out for the national flower, were also highly regarded. Then move on to real food.


    "Oh, is this a honey cupcake? The sweeter nature, the easier it is for men to eat and make."


    Honey cupcakes praised by the chef were made by the city''s popular Honey Cafe Flower Honey shopkeeper. Honey was a luxury product with little distribution, but bees preferred Tiara Rose flowers, allowing them to collect a lot of honey.


    As a result, it is becoming easier to reach the common people, not the nobles.


    A compliment with cupcakes shows a burnt cupcake in the chef''s eye. I get nervous about the fact that it is the real deal and the audience, and I tilt my neck to take it even though I wonder if I couldn''t successfully adjust the baking additions and subtractions.


    As you can see from a distance, it''s overcooked. I was burning hard through the crunch, not very much, but I couldn''t possibly want to eat it.


    "Though, it''s a review, so you have to eat..."


    As I''ve noticed, the chef tries to open his mouth and eat it... but he calls it ''Kiku!'' Ringing and controlled by Lilliage.


    "Uh, Dear Tiara Rose''s friend Lilliage. What''s wrong, sir? If you eat something that''s too burnt, I don''t think it''s good for you."


    Instead of burnt cupcakes, the chef serves the honey cupcakes to Lilliage. But shaking his head, Lilliage insists he wants a scorched cupcake.


    I just thought I''d give this to you, and the chef confirms the team that made this scorched cupcake. There, the names Ferres, Keith and Crail were listed.


    I hear that, and Sotiris speaks "I see".


    "That''s Keith, the fairy king of the woods. I didn''t know you were attending this event."


    "Hey, my God! Such a thing...... Huh!!"


    Sotiris also sees Keith at Tiara Rose and Aquasteed weddings and more. For this reason, it was soon found out that it was a cupcake made by the Fairy King.


    The chef stares at the scorched cupcakes, shivering that this is a treat made by the Fairy King.


    "It''s a fairy king''s cake, so maybe Master Lilliage wanted it too"


    Placing the cupcake in front of Lilliage, she smiled joyfully into her mouth - flashing her face in an instant. It didn''t look good and didn''t seem burnt and hard and delicious.


    "............ I see"


    Even to see how Lilliage is doing, the chef goes on to hit the cupcakes, saying it''s for scrutiny. Moments, the twitchy bitterness spread in my mouth. Sure, this is not good. I chewed it somehow and shook my head to stop eating it.


    But then, the chef felt his body warm.


    "? This is what if..."


    "What''s wrong with you?


    "Your Majesty¡­. Yes, apparently, very little, but this cupcake has a magical effect"


    Regardless of the taste, is its potency just something like Fairy King? The chef left it to that inspiring momentum and ate all the unsavory cupcakes.


    And secondly, a macaroon made by Haltnights and Sirius. Lilliage also looks delicious and gently flattens Sotiris and Lavina.


    However, the rating is not very high, especially since it is not a macaroon with new ideas.


    "Tiara Rose cake next. They make a big round of roses out of candy, and they''re so beautiful."


    Lavina plays her voice and stares inadvertently at the cake of the Tiara Roses. Glittering candy workmanship with raw cream and chocolate ribbon decorations.


    Exactly, you could call it one art.


    "What a waste to eat. But if you don''t eat it, it rots. I''ve never felt this way about food before."


    Placing a fork in a rough cake, Lavina slowly includes sponges, raw cream and chocolate sections in her mouth. The sponge is made of raw cream and chocolate, delicious to melt just that.


    "... ha, very tasty"


    "Oh, this is delicious. It tastes very polite and classy."


    Beating their tongues, Sotiris and the others finish tasting all the treats. Discussions were held on which teams to make special awards next.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    - Ha, I want to do the vetting, too.


    Tiara Rose watched as the judges ate the sweets looking delicious and left flowers on their favorite team. And at the same time, I vow to be a judge next year and eat lots of delicious sweets.


    And a lot of flowers were pointed at Tiara Rose''s team as well. When Tiara Rose thinks this is going to win a little, a bright voice goes into her ear.


    "Sister Tiara Rose"


    "Dear Sirius. Good luck making sweets. How was it?


    "My brother was clumsy and in trouble," said Sirius, who joined with Haltnites, making him laugh, including tea glare.


    "Well, Master Haltnights was clumsy,"


    I listen to Sirius and laugh when the acari dull. Next to that, Olivia takes a clumsy and embarrassing note in her notebook.


    It''s true that the two of us made macaroons, but Haltnights crushed the majority of macaroons.


    "But it''s also fun to try and make your own what you usually casually eat. As a matter of fact, I wanted Sister Tiara Rose to eat the macaroon I made."


    "Do you have a macaroon made by Master Sirius? Thank you, it looks so delicious. Beautiful shape, and it would have been pretty hard to make, wouldn''t it?


    Look at the beautifully wrapped macaroon, Tiara Rose can flaunt her expression. It''s always a pleasure for someone to make treats for themselves.


    Praise Sirius, but it must have been tough, right? and labor Sirius, who would have done unfamiliar work.


    "I failed a little at first, but if I get used to it, I can do something about it"


    "Master Sirius is very clever."


    When Tiara Rose is impressed with Sirius'' words, the MC''s voice echoes in the square as the review appears to be over.


    "This concludes the review! Please wait while we go to the tally ~! ''


    "Mmm, I feel like we''re winners, what do you say?"


    Compare the flowers Acari has won with other teams and tell them they are quite likely to win. Tiara Rose also comes from time to time as she watches the staff count.


    - Would you like our cake?


    I was concerned about that, but I am proud to say that it is quite highly regarded because I get a lot of flowers from the judges. Still, the tension of waiting for results is not reduced.


    Olivia is also restless with the twitching Tiara Rose.


    "It''s time for results.... Dear Sirius, you should return to your cooking space once. Mr. Haltnights will be worried."


    "It''s a results announcement, so you have no choice. I really wanted to be with Sister Tiara Rose a little longer."


    Tiara Rose thinks Sirius is cute to look a little lonely and would have liked to have had a brother like this. The Tiara Roses breathe a sigh of relief by sending them out first before they get results.


    After Sirius is invisible, Olivia opens her mouth "You''re cute".


    "He was a character that barely came out in the game, but he''s a beautiful boy, and I''m so sorry he didn''t come out in the main."


    Olivia.


    Olivia gets a chiseled sigh when she absolutely misses him in the game. And I realized that he was Akari''s brother-in-law, "I envy you," and breathed deeply.


    If you''re bitterly smiling at Olivia like that, the MC tells you the flower tally is over.


    "All right, definitely the winner must be us!


    Come on, announce the results quickly, Common! And, the acari wait in Jen royalty. Presented will be a special award for the top five teams and judges.


    "First, fifth place! Honey Cafe Flower Honey''s, Honey Cupcakes! One hundred eighty-six flowers earned!


    A applause comes from the audience and the shopkeeper bows out saying thank you.


    "Flower honey is the cafe I went to with Olivia the other day. I''m so glad you know the shops are popular."


    "Yeah, really. We have Acari now, and we''ll see you soon."


    "Looking forward to it!


    Fourth- and third-place were announced while the women''s club story was in full swing. Pancakes and ice cream had been chosen. And finally, there''s first and second place left.


    Hands together to pray and listen to the MC''s words.


    ''Oh, my God, the difference between first and second place was only seven flowers. That was quite a fight, my hands to tally were going to tremble unexpectedly!


    - I''m sure the masked man will come to the top.


    Danish cakes are not in this country yet and I have never made Tiara Rose. Eating as a sweet, of course, is more versatile than cake because it can be used for breakfast and lunch.


    Given that point, would the Tiara Roses be at a disadvantage?


    - But even we made the best of it.


    Never took a retreat to a masked man''s Danish cake. Tiara Rose would be able to tell that with her chest stretched.


    "Come on, come on, second place, the number of flowers won, three, two! The number of copies increased at once. Second, this is a large wheel of rose cake made by Dear Tiara Rose''s team!


    When the MC gives the results in high spirits, wow, a loud cheer occurs.


    "Liar, aren''t we the only ones!?"


    I''m sorry to hear that.


    Akali, kneeling with his fists on the ground, is about to truly regret it. I know you were willing to win with a bee, but the regret is that Tiara Rose is the same.


    ''The glorious winner was a masked man made a Danish cake! The cute look is popular with women, and yet the point of view of bread won many men''s votes will be the winning factor. The number of flowers won is 329!!''


    After a huge round of applause, the masked man goes to the center with a meeting. What we have there is a medal for the victory certificate and a variety of side awards.


    "But it''s hard to win using modern cake recipes"


    "Dear Tiara, be sure to win next year!!"


    "Eh."


    Akali, who has now begun to put his next tournament in perspective, is now willing to study making sweets when he returns. I do plan to do it again next year, but Tiara Rose wanted to do the judges, not taste......


    "Then what about a five-step cake to make it more impactful?


    "Dear Olivia, that''s good!


    Talking properly, Acari and Olivia are already starting to thrive completely oblivious to the existence of the winner. The two of you don''t have any prizes or anything in particular, and Tiara Rose thinks it''s okay - haha, the yellow scream sounded.


    "What the hell...?"


    "Ugh!


    "Huh...... Huh!!"


    Tiara Rose sees the center of the square, the source of the voice, breathtaking. Akali is surprised and Olivia unwittingly nearly bleeds her nose and holds her face down with her hands.


    There stood not the man in the mask who received the medal - but the Aquasteed who removed the mask.


    "Dear Aqua... Huh!? Lie, when... but I certainly wasn''t anywhere when I looked before the tournament started."


    I never thought this would happen.


    In the first place, Tiara Rose didn''t think Aquasteed could make treats. Sometimes I help Tiara Rose make a little, but that''s about it.


    When was I able to make such a nice Danish cake? It''s a delightful miscalculation, but it''s suddenly too unfolding and bad for the heart.


    It was the prince, the king of his country, who made a treat that everyone admired - and there is no reason for the women to make a scene.


    As I watched Tiara Rose win Aquasteed, I caught sight of Aquasteed on the pretend. She smiles gently and her chest squeals all the time.


    "Tiara"


    "Oh... no"


    Aquasteed slowly walked under Tiara Rose and offered her the Danish cake she had made.


    "I wanted Tiara to eat, and I snuck into practice."


    "For me...?


    Would there be a woman who wouldn''t be tempted to say she made sweets for herself? No, I''m not.


    What Aquasteed offered was an adorable piece of crunchy Danish fabric with candy coated fruit and tiara rose flowers.


    It''s a waste to eat, and I hesitate unintentionally. It''s a waste to lose such beautiful sweets. But it''s just as wasteful not to eat.


    - The more I want to watch all the time, the more beautiful.


    Aquasteed laughs bitterly at Tiara Rose staring at the danish cake inadvertently. But he definitely seemed to like what he had made, and the joy creeps up.


    And Aquasteed realizes Tiara Rose has a macaron. Considering it wasn''t made by Tiara Rose, a little jealousy sprouts up wondering if someone gave it to me.


    "Tiara, what about that macaroon?


    "Huh?"


    Sure, it reminds me that Haltnights was making macaroons. No way, now my ex-fianc¨¦e, who married another woman, gives away treats, makes me feel incredible.


    But Aquasteed''s predictions fell off.


    "Master Sirius gave it to me."


    "Oh, brother, is that you... But just my sweets today. Right?"


    "Huh!


    Though I''m still a kid Sirius, I don''t want to feed other guys made treats. Aquasteed made sure to push the little Danish cake against Tiara Rose''s mouth to feed it.


    - is, embarrassing!!


    The surrounding gaze has been pouring here ever since Aquasteed arrived. Even though we all know how many couples, it''s embarrassing.


    But Aquasteed doesn''t seem to pull either, and Tiara Rose has no choice but to eat the Danish cake.


    The crisp dough seems to be braised with honey, with a hint of sweetness. The fruit is stingy and I think I can eat as many as I want - what a thought, I got obsessed and flattened one with the pepper.


    "Was it delicious?


    "... mmm, yes. But I was embarrassed. No more."


    Aquasteed wipes the breadcrumbs on the side of his lips with his fingers and smiles satisfactorily. And hold Tiara Rose up as she is and use the ring of the Fairy King in the sky to shout out loudly.


    "The star this time, as we all know, is Tiara Rose. With the blessing of the Fairy King of the Woods, he restored greenery to Marine Forest. Would you please give my beloved Lady a round of applause for her blessing?


    When Aquasteed tells him so, those who were gathered in the square applaud him in unison. I can hear you screaming Tiara Rose''s name out loud and saying thank you for a fun festival.


    "Dear Tiara Rose!


    "The cake was delicious"


    "Looking forward to next year!


    Tiara Rose waves loudly to respond to the words of the people. And at the same time, I get the feeling that I''m very happy.


    Tiara Rose thought from the bottom of her heart that she was glad she was able to protect this country.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Dear Aqua, you''re going to take a bath with Lilia"


    "Oh. You''ll be tired today, take your time"


    "Thank you"


    The Sweets Games closed with a great deal of cheer.


    The winner is Aquasteed. The special jury award is for the third-place team that made the ice cream. Akali regretted it, but the special prize is just hard on the team of royalty and their associates.


    It should be noted that the result of the Ferres team is¡­ needless to say.


    "Tiara''s cake, it was delicious"


    "Thank you, Master Lilia"


    While the two of us grab a hot tub, it''s about the Sweets Games that we talk about. Lilliage seems to have had a lot of fun, sharing her thoughts with her eyes shining.


    "Next year and beyond, we''re going to play the tournament all the time, right? I can''t help but look forward to it now.... Ferres'' cupcakes weren''t delicious. ''


    "Oh, did you..."


    I laugh bitterly at Lilliage''s words and tell him then we''ll just have to practice. Because Aquasteed won, it would be possible if Ferres also practiced desperately. However, although the level of sweets is likely to increase with each increase in the number of times.


    "Oh, yes, I did."


    ''Tiara, it''s been about a month since you took in my powers, but is there anything strange about your body? If you''re at all uncomfortable, let me know''


    Think about what was asked, but soon "it''s okay," Tiara Rose says. Shortly after accepting the power of Lilliage, he was dazed like a daze, but now he''s nothing.


    ''Really, good. Thanks to Tiara, I am likely to be able to maintain the status quo for several hundred years or so. Thank you.''


    With words of gratitude, I bowed my head deeply after Lilliage went up to the edge of the tub.


    "Don''t bow your head that way, Master Lilia. ¡­ but I''m glad to be of some help"


    As for Tiara Rose, I''m so glad Lilliage is laughing so well. As someone with the same rings of the starry sky, I want to continue to have a good relationship.


    - Oh?


    I smiled and told him I was okay. Tiara Rose, but I rebuke Lilliage''s words again.


    "It looks like we can maintain the status quo for hundreds of years or so."


    In view of this, Tiara Rose will have absorbed hundreds of years of power that Lilliage receives on his shoulder. I am anxious to know if it is really ok, although there is no abnormality in my body so far.


    - Maybe I... someday.


    I wonder if the day will come when I will become a monster. I wonder what kind of idea goes through the back of my brain, but it''s never unlikely.


    Like Ferres and Lilliage, they don''t live for more than a thousand years, so maybe that worry is useless. However, a little anxiety remains on Tiara Rose''s chest.


    ''Tiara, what''s wrong?


    "No, it''s nothing. Maybe I put it up a little bit."


    ''I''m tired today, aren''t I? Looks like the Ferres have a treat for you, shall we go up now?''


    Nodding at Lilliage''s words, Tiara Rose lifts Lilliage and leaves the bathroom. Filine, who was waiting, wipes Lilliage''s body before helping Tiara Rose change.


    "Aren''t you a lot tired?


    "Really? Philine, can I just ask for a little massage later?


    "Yes, of course."


    I strained and made a lot of cake, so I''m getting more tired than I''m aware of. But first, we all have a dinner party.


    "Tiara, are you up?


    "Dear Aqua? Yes, I''m up. What''s wrong, sir?


    Hearing Aquasteed''s voice, Tiara Rose takes her bathrobe under the feather-woven Aquasteed.


    "Look, it''s still wet. You''ll catch a cold."


    "... thank you"


    With a bitter smile, Aquasteed used the magic of the wind to dry Tiara Rose''s hair. Keep your fingers tangled and enjoy Tiara Rose''s hair.


    "Tiara''s hair is troublesome because she wants to touch it all the time"


    When I no longer want to let go, Aquasteed mouths the hair gently as she tells me so. Tiara Rose, who embraces her eyes narrowly and seems comfortable, can also be added to the trouble of being too defenseless.


    "I like to touch Aqua''s cheeks these days!


    "That''s my first ear."


    "While asleep, sneak in"


    Tickles, Aquasteed laughs.


    "Then I''ll have to do something to get back at Tiara while she''s asleep."


    "Master Aqua has touched me enough when I''m awake, so that''s a rejection."


    At any rate, when Tiara Rose smiles at me for touching me when I''m awake - whoops, I can be hugged by Aquasteed.


    "It''s a dinner party coming up, so don''t say anything too cute. Makes me want to fall back."


    "Oh... excuse me"


    When the two of us are giggling, we realize that at some point Lilliage and Filine are gone. A good samurai is always good at reading the air.


    Aquasteed and I sit by the window and indulge in the starry sky for just a moment.


    "Marine Forest is really beautiful."


    "Oh. Tiara and I are going to protect the starry sky."


    "... Yes"


    May this land be much happier.


    I stared at the starry sky for a while, as I prayed so.

 76 1. Aquasteed Anxiety

    "Khushu!


    "Well, Master Tiara Rose. Is it a cold?


    "Do you have a little sore throat...?


    Tiara Rose has apparently caught a cold this past season when spring is over.


    Blooming flowers begin to grow in the summer, and the fairies seem to enjoy their day snuggling in the sun. The forests bring grace to fruition, and the seas grow as the fishes grow. The sun is watching over it from the sky.


    Here, at a time when Marine Forest benefits most naturally in a year.


    Tiara Rose weaves a thin stall and asks Philine, the samurai, to brew her tea.


    "I''ll add honey, too."


    "Thanks"


    It smells sweet and gentle from the teacup I received and my heart is at ease.


    She is the king princess of this country, Tiararose Lapis Marine Forest.


    Beautiful honey pink hair, serene eyes. It looks harmless, but it''s actually this world - a villain''s warrant for a maiden game called "The Lapis Lazuli Ring".


    "I''ll get my bedroom ready, take a break"


    "Right."


    Drinking dust and tea, Filine begins her preparations so that she can sleep immediately. Leave it to a good samurai, nothing will go wrong.


    "But I can''t believe I''m sleeping from this hour..."


    Right now, it''s just the right time for an afternoon tea time. The puffy day feels good, and if I''m honest with you, it''s great for a nap. Although it may not be the same as a nap because I am ill.


    Drink up some tea while Filine prepares.


    - Speaking of which, you haven''t caught a cold in a long time.


    I remember catching a cold when I was a kid, but the last few years have been health itself. Being managed by Filine, I don''t live a regular life and get sick.


    "Adult colds are prolonged, and it''s good to sleep and cure them before they get worse."


    Philine''s finished her schedule, so I''m just going to go back to bed. Have the windows curtain the lace and let plenty of sunlight into the room.


    Comfortable warmth strikes nature and drowsiness.


    "Oh, pompous."


    "Dear Tiara Rose, I will bring your doctor to see how you are before dinner"


    "Thank you, Philine"


    Hugging her pillow, Tiara Rose fell asleep happy.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    In an off-white setting, windows open slightly and a pleasant breeze blows through. The wooden furniture is more craftsman on the arm, highlighting my husband''s elegance.


    Such an aquasteed clerk''s office, but now I was bothering.


    "Tiara has a cold? Are you okay?!?"


    Tiara Rose was asleep and Philine rushed to Aquasteed. In a hurry for his own wife''s illness, does Aquasteed have an appetite, fever, complexion? And I''m going to ask you questions early on.


    Filine laughs bitterly when she tries to panic awfully to such aquasteed.


    "We''re starting to pull it off, so I think it''ll get better tomorrow. We''ve arranged for a doctor, so we''ll see about that later."


    "Right..."


    "I''m sleeping slowly now, so I think it''ll get better tomorrow"


    Aquasteed is relieved by Tiara Rose''s medical condition as communicated by Filine.


    "But it''s forbidden to impose. Please adjust Tiara''s schedule for tomorrow and beyond."


    "Yes, sir."


    I''m worried about what''s worrying me, even though I''m starting to catch a cold.


    The person who gave the immediate instructions was Aquasteed Marine Forest, husband of Tiara Rose and Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Marine Forest.


    Dark blue hair, sluggish body. A neat face frightens the seriousness, but only sweet and gentle for Tiara Rose.


    "Dear Aquasteed, I''m also paragraph one job right now...... do you want to go see how it goes?


    "... right, no, I''m going out a little bit first"


    Elliot speaks to Aquasteed and suggests looking at the situation.


    Being near Aquasteed, he also schedules and so on. Under gentle eyes, Sepia''s hair. I don''t have a lover, but he''s a popular and friendly figure from the royal castle maids.


    Elliot blinks like he ate a bean cannon, thinking he was going right under Tiara Rose.


    There shouldn''t have been any plans now for Aquasteed to take precedence over her.


    "Where are you going?


    "It''s at Crail''s. I''ll be right back."


    "Yes, sir."


    If it''s true, I want to go under Tiara Rose right away.... but before that, there was something I really wanted to confirm. Aquasteed left the job to Elliot, leaving the office behind.


    The temple of Claire, the fairy king of the sky, is in the realm of the sky.


    Only Aquasteed, blessed by the Fairy King in the sky, can go there in a living person. Aquasteed can''t take him, even though he''s close by.


    Exceptionally, other humans can only go if Crail himself invites them.


    Clear air, white based conditioning. Some of the walls of the temple are made of large glass, allowing you to admire the king''s capital in a way that looks down from the sky.


    "Aquasteed, what''s wrong?


    Crail, of course, welcomed Aquasteed into the sky.


    Cut off her blue gradient hair with her shoulders, her golden eyes combine her majesty as king. Everyone would almost spill on a beautiful face that would be mistaken for a woman.


    I need to talk to you a little bit.


    "Consultation? I don''t think this country is experiencing any problems that need my help right now..."


    As Aquasteed tells her, Claire leans her neck strangely. His weapon of manipulation in the sky is information. Because the wind blowing into the country picks up the sound and delivers it to him, we know most of it.


    There is nothing wrong with this peaceful country right now.


    That''s why Claire said, "What?," he asks with ease, "but Aquasteed looked at Claire with a terribly serious, thoughtful look.


    "... it''s about Tiara"


    "Tiara Rose''s?


    Speaking of which, Claire recalls that you received earlier information from the fairy that you fell ill. But since it''s an early symptom of a cold, she shouldn''t have had any problems.


    When I tried to open my mouth to ask if Claire was in an unknown situation - a wind blew and petals and leaves of trees broke out.


    Beautiful long hair and firm body. Fan at hips and loosely stall at neck. Keith, the Fairy King of the Woods, has golden eyes just like Aquasteed and Crail.


    I''m celebrating Tiara Rose, so Keith came to see what was going on.


    "What, what''s wrong with Tiara?


    "Keith...... come back on your own"


    "Fine, nothing."


    Claire sighs, telling him to contact him beforehand if he''s coming.


    Nevertheless, I mean Keith, who is free to run. Even with caution this way, I''m sure you''ll soon forget it.


    The gaze of the two then moves to Aquasteed.


    "What happened to Tiara?


    "I''m sick. ¡­ I wondered if that might be the effect of the power of the King of the Starry Skies"


    "I see."


    Two kings convince themselves of the words of Aquasteed, who told them anxiously.


    The power of the King of Starry Skies is the power that Aquasteed possesses.


    That can also deal with Ferres Marine Forest, the first king. But it''s huge, and it''s very burdensome on the human body.


    For this reason, its power flows in the Ring of the King of the Starry Skies. Because Tiara Rose has Aquasteed''s King of Starry Skies ring, she thought she was ill under the influence of her powers...


    Now Lilliage, Ferres'' wife, has been transformed from a human to a monster by the power of the ring.


    I''d rather not be anxious, I can''t.


    "I think too much, Aquasteed. Her malaise has nothing to do with the king''s power"


    "Right...... sure, neither Tiara nor Aquasteed are disturbed by power"


    But that seemed worrying, and Claire and Keith ran out of words, "It''s just a cold".


    "Right, good. Because of my power, if anything happens to Tiara..."


    Even if you repent, you won''t be able to.


    I am heartily relieved by the answers of the two fairy kings, then soon I will want to go under Tiara Rose. Having immediately guessed it, Claire says, "You just have to go" with a bitter smile.


    "Are you worried? About Tiara Rose. I''m going out, too, so go home."


    "I guess I''ll go see Tiara later, too."


    "Sorry, thanks"


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Aquasteed, who followed Claire''s temple, soon turned under Tiara Rose. I go from my room to the two bedrooms, but I don''t see Tiara Rose.


    "Tiara?"


    I''m in a hurry to see if I haven''t slept even though I''m ill, but soon I realize I''m sleeping in a different bedroom.


    This is the bedroom I use with Aquasteed, the King''s Prince. There is a separate bedroom for Aquasteed to take care of not getting cold and for Tiara Rose to slow down.


    Immediately move the place and enter the bedroom that is made adjacent to the Tiara Rose room. To avoid making as much noise as possible, slowly approach the ceiling sleeping table to see how his wife is doing.


    But Tiara Rose slowly opened her eyes and smiled flutteringly.


    "... Dear Aqua"


    "Did I wake you up?


    "No. I slept a little, but I woke up. The sun feels good here, so I''m just comfortable sleeping down"


    I''ll tell Aquasteed I''m feeling better now.


    "Right. But don''t push me."


    "Yes, I''m sorry for your concern"


    "I''m fine. I''ve been through a lot lately, so maybe I''m tired."


    Aquasteed sits on the edge of the bed and gently strokes Tiara Rose''s hair. Keep kissing gently on your forehead and whisper in your ear, "Get better soon".


    "... Huh! It''ll be better soon."


    "Oh. I''m worried, I can''t help it"


    "It''s a big deal, Master Aqua."


    Tiara Rose gets thrilled with the smiling Aquasteed face. Low voices whispered in your ears further accelerate it.


    There, the sound of cones and knocks.


    Allowing her to enter the room, Filine gave her a peek in the face.


    "Excuse me, sir."


    "Philine, what''s wrong?


    "Yes, Master Olivia is in sight. Dear Tiara Rose, when I told you that she was not feeling well, she wanted to see you..."


    Perhaps Olivia had some business and climbed the castle.


    They always visit Tiara Rose when they climb the castle. The two of us have tea parties and often spend some time relaxing.


    "Dear Aqua, may I speak to Olivia for just a moment?


    "Of course I don''t mind that, but is Tiara okay?


    "Yes."


    Thinking about what to do, a little bit and Tiara Rose decided to welcome Olivia in.


    Immediately Filine brought Olivia. It has a very good fragrance set and makes my eyes shine when I realize that I have a sweet souvenir.


    Soon after entering the room, Olivia thanked the lady.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, Your Highness Aquasteed, Good day to you"


    "Oh. Miss Olivia seems fine too, above all."


    "Master Olivia, there you are. I can''t be very welcoming, but take your time."


    When Tiara Rose welcomes Olivia, she puts her hand on her mouth and Olivia snorts. Wouldn''t that mind be great for a villain warrant lady and a hero who''s worried about it and stuck around!!


    I can feel the urge to get bored and bang the floor, but Olivia endures much longer. If I get any more excited, I might get a nosebleed.


    She''s such a villain''s warrant for the sequel to The Lapis Lazuli Ring.


    Long hair and stringy hair accesses. Framed coloured glasses are a good fit, a tense Duke''s maid.


    Like Tiara Rose, I remember a previous life when she was Japanese.


    "I''m glad you look better than I thought"


    "Yeah. Maybe I''m tired. It should be better soon."


    Relax, "Please get better soon," Olivia smiles.


    Along with that, a lovely wrapped balm couch was offered as a souvenir. Let your eyes shine on it, Tiara Rose can''t hide her joy.


    "If you eat this, it''s going to get better soon"


    "Dear Tiara Rose... Yes, because of that... why don''t you take a trip with your sanatorium? I''ll lend you the villa I always use."


    "In the villa?


    To Olivia''s suggestion, Tiara Rose finds that very fascinating.


    But it would take quite a few days if we were to combine therapy. Aquasteed is busy at work and may be tough to get to. Or so I don''t even think about going alone with Tiara Rose.


    - It''s a nice invitation, but I can''t seem to.


    Aquasteed opens his mouth first as Tiara Rose tries to put in a no.


    "That''s good. I''ll adjust my schedule, too, so let''s go together."


    "Dear Aqua, I''m busy... okay?


    "Of course. Tiara''s the best way to get better."


    I was purely pleased with Aquasteed''s reply because I didn''t think it was possible.


    Due to his status as Prince Wang and his concubine, it is difficult to go out calmly. It will probably be hard to twist the time out, but Aquasteed acknowledged without showing it at all.


    "Then I''ll arrange it for you. I''ll send you Levy to check the dates and stuff."


    "Thank you, Master Olivia"


    Thus it was decided that the two of us, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, would go on a trip.

 77 2. Relax Travel

    Tiara Rose, who was complaining about her illness, but fortunately seemed to have really started catching a cold and was perfectly better off on her way to her sanatorium trip.


    I mean, it''s just been a good trip.


    The villa Olivia introduced us to is about two days by carriage from the King''s Capital of Marine Forest to the western direction.


    Arriving overlooking the idyllic country roads where the fields are located, is a village that grows its main specialty, a marlin forest. On a small high hill outside the village, a villa is built.


    "That''s a good point, Dear Aqua. My cold is totally better, and I''d like you to take a look at the village."


    "Don''t be alarmed yet, Tiara."


    Tiara Rose looks at the field cheerfully with her face out of the carriage, but Aquasteed still seems to be worried and wants her to take her time at the villa.


    Too overprotective, Tiara Rose laughs unexpectedly. And "I want to go," Tiara Rose looks up at Aquasteed.


    "... ok. Let''s take a day off today and see if there''s any problems tomorrow."


    "Yes!"


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    In the Marine Forest, many villages are nurturing pigeons.


    This village, visited by the Tiara Roses, is one of them. The village has a small population of about five hundred, but is very vibrant to work with pleasure. There are many children in the village and they keep laughing.


    I took a night off at the villa and came to the village to see the violin because I made sure there was no problem with my health. Besides Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, Elliot, Filine and Tarmo are with us.


    As soon as I got to the village by carriage, the village chief and several villagers greeted me warmly.


    To the village chief who immediately knelt down, Aquasteed responded and Tiara Rose continued her words.


    "Thank you for responding, despite the sudden visit"


    "Regards"


    "There is no such thing. It is a great honor for the royal family to walk in like this."


    The village chief smiles happily because there is little like royalty coming. It''s only a rural area, an old man with solid, gray hair.


    The village chief himself guided us to Hatake.


    "Wow, wow..."


    Looking at the guided side of the field, Tiara Rose gives an exclamation. (12) Every grain was sparkling as if it were a gem, and I could see at a glance how dearly it was raised.


    When I definitely wanted to use it for my new sweets, Pikori and the Fairy of the Woods gave me a peek in the face from between the fields.


    "Oh, it''s Tiara!"


    "Tattered"?


    "Oh, thanks...... But you can''t do that, can you?


    The fairy in the woods laughed briskly, offering a delicious looking bamboo to Tiara Rose. Tell him he shouldn''t do it without permission, but soon the village chief will say, "It''s no big deal, you can do whatever you want!" and roughed up his voice like he was in a panic.


    Then¡­ and the sweetness spread as soon as the lid was included in the mouth. Accented with a slight acidity, it adds more flavor.


    "Ooh, yummy............!!"


    "Then I''ll give you more!"


    "This, this is what I recommend!"


    "I raised this one."


    Seeing that Tiara Rose looked delicious, the fairies in the woods said, ''Eat this too!'' And I pick a lot of tweezers. More than thirty pieces were then carried under the Tiara Rose.


    There''s no way I can just eat it. It''s a hurried tiara rose, but Aquasteed laughs with pleasure when he sees it.


    "As always, Tiara is loved by the fairies in the woods."


    "Everyone in the village is working so hard to make it..."


    Tiara Rose, whose heart decides to pay for what the fairies pick later.


    A lot of them ask Filine to keep them so they can eat when they get back to the villa.


    "But it''s rare to have so many forest fairies. I wonder if this is my favorite place."


    "Although it is rare for humans to see fairies in the woods... there have been a few more sightings here lately."


    "Really?


    "I guess it''s because of Tiara. The fairies of the woods have become active."


    Hearing the words of Aquasteed, Tiara Rose nods so much that it becomes.


    Indeed, "the flowers of Tiara Rose have been described as national flowers, and the fairies of the forest have appeared in many places as taking care of them.


    Without Tiara Rose, this would not have happened.


    I also checked with the village chief and he returned an answer that I had not imagined.


    "No, it''s only in the last few days that the fairies in the woods have shown themselves. ¡­ I seem to miss the guests who came to the village"


    "The fairy in the woods?


    Everyone thought that Tiara Rose was the only one currently blessed by the forest fairies. For that reason, I was very surprised that other human beings were blessed.


    Of course, though that would be a good trend if the fairies in the woods were to bless people more in the future.


    - But I kind of miss you.


    Tiara Rose loves the fairies in the woods who blessed her dowry from the kingdom of Lapis Lazuli. Because I''ve always thought that that blessing could be directed solely at me... just a little bit, I''m discouraged.


    "As far as I''m concerned, I''d be happy if the fairies in the woods stopped being all Tiara"


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Tiara Rose smiles at those cheerful words. As for Aquasteed, I mean it, but Tiara Rose makes me happy that she must have comforted me.


    Aquasteed takes Tiara Rose''s hips and tells her to go back from the field to the village. Because it would be tough if I had a cold.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, this way please"


    "Thank you, Philine"


    Larger stall, Filine puts on Tiara Rose''s shoulder. The fairies who saw it smile ''Cute ~''.


    "Thank you. We''re going back to the village."


    "Huh? Aren''t we going to see each other?


    "Meet?"


    "Maybe there''s a guest nearby that the village chief was talking about?


    Aquasteed expects Tiara Rose with her neck tilted. That seemed to be a hit, pointing to the great tree about thirty meters away when the fairies said, ''Yes it is ~''.


    "Huh? That..."


    The first thing Tiara Rose saw was Ferres and Lilliage taking a nice nap under the tree.


    Well, I do bitterly laugh that these two should be liked by the fairies in the woods.


    Ferres Marine Forest and his wife, Lilliage Marine Forest.


    The first king of this land and his queen.


    A man of mighty power and founded Marine Forest with three fairy kings.


    "Ah, those two would be happy to be blessed,"


    "Right. He said he was going to travel, but I didn''t think he''d be here."


    To Elliot and Aquasteed, who laughed equally bitterly, only the village chief, not knowing the circumstances, leaned his neck.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Hey, I didn''t know the Aquasteeds were coming to this village."


    Ferres giggles and tells him to have fun. In its arms is also held a pretentious and adorable lilyage.


    Ferres with a face similar to Aquasteed and thin hair of pigment. Lilliage has become a monster figure because he continued to embrace the power of the King of the Starry Skies. Now that its power is calming, it travels and looks around Marine Forest.


    Tiara Rose, who found them in the field, called out and invited them to the villa.


    Large living room, opposite Tiara Rose and Aquasteed sitting on the couch side by side, with Ferres sitting holding Lilliage in his arms.


    It was just called Olivia''s proud villa, and it was a very calm creation of a woodhouse. Filled with fragrances of natural trees, large windows allow you to spend tea time overlooking the majestic mountains with a wooden deck.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, I''m ready for you."


    "Thank you, Philine"


    "Wow, it looks delicious ~!"


    The fairies in the woods sort it out and it''s the finest violin they''ve ever gotten from the village.


    Prepared with warm tea, the tension rises between Tiara Rose and Lilliage.


    And, uh, can Ferres eat just like ourselves? The question comes to Tiara Rose. Ferres is a ghost, so he may not have the concept of saying he eats.


    Tiara Rose, roughly, calls out to see what''s going on.


    "Ah... Your Highness Ferres, do you eat food?


    "Yeah, I''ll take it. Thank you, Tiara Rose"


    ''You can eat without a problem. It''s a strange thing to say it''s a ghost. As a person, I died...... well, you might want to think of it as something of a fairy. Keith and the others will be able to eat, right?


    Ferres says there is no problem and Lilliage explains it in detail. Relaxed by the answer, Tiara Rose and the others enjoyed the quarrel.


    "Huh... I''m hungry"


    "Are you all right? Dear Lilliage,"


    "Yes, no."


    When I finished eating all the rice, the lilyage began to mellow. Since Ferres is gently stroking Lilliage, it probably has that effect as well.


    "Let me show you to Lord Ferres and Master Lilliage''s room."


    Soon Aquasteed gets up and tells him, but Ferres shakes his head slowly.


    "Tiara Rose, will you let Lilia sleep in her room? I''m in the mood for a drink."


    "Yes, of course."


    Apparently, tea wasn''t enough, Tiara Rose laughs inside. Now let''s prepare wine and champagne, not just tea.


    Aquasteed seems to hang out with Ferres and sits on the couch again.


    "Tiara will be tired too, so rest first"


    "Okay. Good night, Dear Aqua, Your Highness Ferres"


    "Good night. Say hello to Lilia."


    "Yes."


    Take care of the liriage Ferres had and hold it tight.


    Ask Filine for help with Tiara Rose, and Elliot will prepare the Ferres liquor. Where the division of roles was soon decided, Tiara Rose left the living room behind.

 78 3. Talk to Ferres

    Dropping off the Tiara Roses, Ferres stood up in the air.


    "Aquasteed, can I talk to you for a second"


    "Your Highness Ferres......?


    Apparently moving out of the living room, Aquasteed wonders if wanting a drink was an excuse. but Ferres peeked back into the kitchen fumbling with the wine and raw ham Elliott had prepared.


    - Was it true that you wanted a drink too?


    Until then, it was an unstable ghost of power. It is also understandable that you want alcohol or something delicious. Aquasteed nodded honestly and followed Ferrez.


    "This country still has beautiful stars."


    "Right."


    The place where Ferres moved was on the roof of the villa.


    Sit on a loosely sloped roof painted in an eponymous color and place the plate careful not to fall. Aquasteed grabs the wine glass he''s been given, and Ferres and I toast to the night sky.


    "- Cheers. I didn''t think there''d be a day like this where I could drink with my own kids."


    "Neither did I expect a day to drink with the First King."


    A glass of white wine is poured into the night sky.


    Staring at it, Aquasteed quietly waits for Ferres to cut the story out. Please, talk to me, or I''ll give you another order...


    What the hell do you want to talk about until you pay Tiara Rose and Lilliage?


    I guess Aquasteed''s tension passed on to Ferres. Drink up the wine you were tasting all at once and Ferres laughs with pleasure.


    "Don''t be so vigilant, Aquasteed. I''m not gonna take it and eat it."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Maybe it''s just a chat, huh?


    "Impossible."


    Against teasing Ferres, Aquasteed clearly denies the possibility.


    "Damn, if it wasn''t a little cuter, Tiara Rose would have captured my affection, wouldn''t she?


    "It''s an extra favor..."


    "Hehe. Well, I wanted to talk to you about your future."


    Hitting and changing from earlier, the low, serious voice of Ferres clears into the clear night sky.


    Aquasteed hacked into the word and pointed his equally serious eyes at Ferres. Crossing golden eyes, like stars.


    - Not really, that doesn''t sound like a good story.


    With such anticipation, Aquasteed sipped wine and listened to the words just as Ferres did.


    "It''s time for the King of the Starry Skies to take turns"


    "Changing kings?


    "Oh.... me and yours, it''s an alternative"


    It feels like Ferres'' words have heat, twitching and penetrating his body. Thin, it was something I was feeling, but I never thought I could tell it as a word so quickly and clearly.


    On the palm of Aquasteed, from nervousness or sweat.


    Seeing an aquasteed like that, Ferres tells him "it''s okay".


    "You will be able to use your power much better than I am."


    "That''s not true."


    "This immense force, which could not be controlled by itself, became familiar to man in the long history of Marine Forest. Dark enough blood to flow in me won''t be in Aquasteed anymore"


    The blood of the royal family grew thinner and thinner from the second king, the son of Ferres, and a thousand and six hundred years had passed since his founding.


    Even if Aquasteed is taking over Ferres'' blood in color, he says it won''t be enough to be out of control.


    "His Highness Ferres. What happens to me when I become king"


    "... it''s a straight ball"


    "Isn''t that a problem you can get away with?


    Will we come off the concept of human beings and continue to live all the time?


    Or like Lilliage, will you even lose your human appearance?


    What I want to hear is, it''s like a mountain.


    Hearing Aquasteed''s words, Ferres conceives with his fingertips on his jaw.


    "Honestly, I don''t know what will happen to me either.... It''s just a prediction, but Aquasteed and Tiara Rose will be able to use their powers without any problems. I just might run out of something called life expectancy"


    "Life expectancy¡­"


    "Otherwise, the King of the Starry Sky will be gone."


    Hopefully the next king will show up soon, but that will be difficult, Ferres says.


    I can''t help but convince Aquasteed of that word. Because it''s been over a thousand and six hundred years in Marine Forest until the second generation of Aquasteeds shows up.


    - Built with the fairy kings, Marine Forest.


    Fairy King of the Forest, Fairy King of the Sea, Fairy King of the Sky - and King of the Starry Sky. These four have been watching and supporting Marine Forest since its founding.


    No way the king of the starry sky can pull out in Aquasteed''s place. I have always wanted to support you as a royal fairy king.


    But - it''s not like I don''t have a concern.


    "I don''t care what happens. But what makes Tiara unhappy..."


    "Aquasteed"


    Trying to convey it, Ferres'' fingertips were stuck in front of Aquasteed''s eyes. The fingertips slip straight into the lips, and Aquasteed mumbles.


    "More than that, don''t say it. You must not deny her resolve. Tiara Rose is a strong man prepared to be royal."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Ferres is proud to have Tiara Rose as a member of the royal family.


    And at the same time, I told him to look good, but he thinks that there has to be a woman in Aquasteed who will be there for me, too, so that I have to have Liliage.


    Aquasteed and never denied Tiara Rose. Still, still, as my beloved wife - I wanted her to be happier than anyone else.


    "Even I don''t know how Aquasteed feels. But the relationship between you and Tiara Rose wouldn''t be that easy to break off, would it?


    "Of course."


    Tiara Rose will support Aquasteed, who has become king, and will stay with us everywhere. I''m not nagging, I really think so, and I actually am.


    Aquasteed takes a big, deep breath and calms his mind. And again, I see Ferres with a serious look.


    "No way, that''s all we''re talking about, right?


    "Aquasteed is true, excellent and troublesome"


    Chuckling and laughing, Ferres started talking again.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Tiara Rose puts Lilliage to bed with Filine.


    A room reserved for Ferres and Lilliage, united by gentle young vegetable colours. The walls use wood as is, and the vases are lived with spring and summer flowers.


    "You''re sleeping well"


    "Master Lilia has just begun her journey, and I''m sure she''s getting tired."


    "I''ll get you some water."


    "Yeah, please. Philine, take a rest when it''s over."


    "Yes."


    Leave it to Filine, Tiara Rose leaves the room behind.


    As I walked down the hall trying to get back to the room, I saw a pretty plate decorated with embossed flowers. It says'' library ''there, which reminds me that it was recommended to Olivia when it came to it.


    "I''m sure there must be valuable material..."


    That''s the book Olivia collected.


    Tiara Rose, who was already trying to get some rest, stepped into the library thinking that I was really worried about her for just a little while...


    The interior is about ten tatami, not very spacious. However, the bookshelves line up sloppily. In addition, a bookshelf is made in the form of an embedding on one side of the wall. Wood desk and chair next to a window with only one. I can imagine that there was a small lamp there and Olivia would have been reading.


    "Wow, you''re not sure which one to read."


    Taking one book right at the entrance, it was a lapis lazuli history book. Right next to it is something of the same lineage, which can be found neatly organized by genre and country.


    "I wonder what it is?


    Slowly looking from the edge of the bookshelf, that was the lineup called Olivia. "About the Fairy," "World Map," "Royal History," etc.


    When I was attracted to an interesting back cover, there was a book with nothing written on the back cover.


    "What the...?


    If you''re curious and take it in your hand, the cover doesn''t say anything. Turning the page with your neck tilted, a beautiful handwritten text catches your eye.


    "Uh," Marine Forest Still Winning Places List, Suburban Flowers, Boulevards, Rumor Cafes "- said! This says something about the game!


    As you go further through the content, the profile settings of the attacked audience. Things you like or don''t like, personality or identity. Plus, politely, it even writes down the game settings and the impression when we actually meet.


    "It''s a tactical book made by Master Olivia! Awesome!!"


    I didn''t expect to see a handwritten offensive book.


    "Interesting. It also says a lot about Marine Forest that I don''t know about. Uh," Beginning Square "? Oh, speaking of which, it was in Lapis Lazuli, too."


    Beginning Square refers to a square marked with the game logo ''Lapis Lazuli''s Ring''.


    Basically, that''s where dating meets and important events happen. I''m impressed that Marine Forest had the same thing......


    Not Olivia. Barely, Tiara Rose must also make time and make pilgrimages to the Holy Land! And I swear to my heart.


    I became more and more obsessed as I was reading, and Tiara Rose kept reading strategy books all the time.


    "- Ha!"


    As a result, it was morning.


    I blink a few times with my patsy, and I glance at the window. The morning sun was starting to rise and it turned out that the morning was already here. It''s still early to wake up, but it''s no different in the morning.


    I can''t believe I''m obsessed with books and staying up all night.


    "Oh, what about Master Aqua?!?"


    I was so worried about him for having a cold, I was obsessed with books and stayed up all night - I can''t believe I could tell you. I rush back to my room, and, uh, speaking of which, I realize that nobody came looking for me.


    Tilting his neck, Tiara Rose heads to the bedroom to which she was addressed. I don''t care what Aquasteed would do if he was standing in the shape of a ghost, he roughly opens the door.


    But there''s nobody there.


    If you touch the bedroom, there is no disturbance in the sheets, etc., and it stays cold.


    "Didn''t Master Aqua come back to his room overnight?


    - Is something wrong?


    Or did you get drunk and fall asleep in the living room?


    Tiara Rose hurries downstairs, but there is no one in the living room. There are no glasses or anything like that, they are beautifully prepared.


    "... Dear Aqua?


    Driven by anxiety, Tiara Rose searches the villa for Aquasteed. But there is no aquasteed in any room. What I''m not looking for is a room where someone is resting. Or so I can''t even look around there.


    If you''re looking for something else, it''s the only way out. Even though I don''t think so, it''s possible that I''m watching a beautiful morning sun. That''s what I thought, Tiara Rose went out the front door to the garden.


    "Wow, beautiful..."


    The trees lit up in the morning sun and had a view that you''d always want to see. Unexpectedly looking at me, I can hear "Tiara".


    "! Master Aqua?


    I''ll turn around the voices, but there''s no one there. No way? What do you think, "It''s this way," he said from up there.


    "Morning, Tiara. I think I''ve totally spoken to His Highness Ferres... sorry"


    When I saw him, I saw Aquasteed and Ferres sitting side by side on the roof. When I see him smiling bitterly, I know that it would have been morning if I had spoken in and noticed.


    But what the hell were we talking about all night?


    Aquasteed and Ferres got off the roof and came under Tiara Rose.


    "Come on, let''s go back to your room"


    "It''s still a little early to wake up. I''ll go back to Lilia, too."


    "Yes. Um, Master Aqua, what..."


    "You''ve totally spoken in. I mean, Tiara, why do you keep yesterday''s dress?


    "Huh? Ah... this is..."


    Trying to ask me what I was talking about, Aquasteed whispers it up and confirms Tiara Rose''s outfit. I''ve been reading books all night, so I can''t even be dressed.


    The chuckling aquasteed would definitely be angry. Next to it, Ferres looks at this one with a laugh of fun.


    "Tiara''s the one who''s going to need to listen carefully to what she''s been doing."


    "... Yes"


    To Aquasteed''s words, Tiara Rose snorts. If I told him I''d been reading books all night, he''d definitely piss me off.


    - But. Kind of, like, teased you?


    What the hell were you two talking about with Ferres? It came from Aquasteed that I didn''t want to say that, and it was Tiara Rose, who only gave up a little.

 79 4. Sudden Notice

    "Huh..."


    "You want to sleep?"


    "... Yes"


    When Aquasteed and I went back to the bedroom, I felt relieved or yawned. Will I be scolded all night after this...... I thought so but I can gently stroke my head on Aquasteed.


    "In the meantime, take a bath"


    "Thank you"


    Nodding at the careful words of Aquasteed, Tiara Rose took a slow bath.


    There is warmth when it rises, and my neck moves at last. Aquasteed, who was up to use another bathroom, smiles bitterly and dries Tiara Rose''s hair with the magic of the wind, which still contained water.


    As it is, Tiara Rose is pulled away and put to sleep on the sleeping table. When I was gently whispered "good night" in my ear, my consciousness was already in my dreams -.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The Tiara Roses woke up after noon and finished a light meal.


    Biting down his sleepiness, Tiara Rose makes cakes in the kitchen with Lilliage. Since I''ve been up all night, a restraining order has been issued from Aquasteed for worrying about a cold.


    Aquasteed said he would go out with Ferres on a horse inspection of the neighborhood.


    When I tell Lilliage about last night, I laugh with pleasure.


    "Ferres and Aquasteed were drinking on the roof?


    "It is. I''m surprised..."


    ''Sure, it''s unusual for royalty to drink outside. But Ferres has always been.''


    Ferres has his majesty as king, but he also has a childlike side somewhere.


    They tell me that I used to sit on the ground and drink with fairy kings. Sure, if it''s around Keith, I don''t think that looks very tight.


    ''I, too, was often swept away by his freedom to run. At first, I hated Ferres when he pushed me. "


    "Push...?


    ''Yes. Ferres was royal, but he had a lot of brothers up there. I ran away to create a new country.''


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Hearing the words of Lilliage, Tiara Rose has her eyes dotted.


    Indeed, Ferres was originally a royal of another country. I knew he founded Marine Forest with the Fairy King, but I don''t even know Tiara Rose until the details.


    "In the country where Ferres was born, there were no fairies. At first, the fairies wanted to see it, so they came to Marine Forest today. ''


    Ferres came to hear the rumor because Lilliage was liked by fairies more than anyone else. Then he lived in the village and Ferres became friends with the fairy.


    Lilliage looking to have fun, but he tells me he hated rustling and Ferres. Compassionate from anywhere, but I guess we had a lot of difficulties until the two of us got married.


    Tiara Rose also softly swears on her chest that Aquasteed and I will overcome any difficulties.


    "Ah, Tiara! Isn''t it time the cake was baked?


    "Right, sounds good"


    Lilliage moves her nose to the baked smell of the sponge drifting from the oven. It conveys that you shake your glossy tail to the left and right, and that it''s more fun in action than words.


    Tiara Rose squeezes the raw cream, and then Lilliage puts the chives on. It became very luxurious with a clay laid on one side.


    As a final finish, put on the adorable decorative chocolate in the form of a liriage that Tiara Rose has secretly made.


    ''Wow, what is this! So cute!!''


    "It''s Master Lilliage. Chocolate can be melted and stiffened again if molded. Isn''t she cute?"


    ''Ha!''


    Lilliage is grinning when Ferres seems happy.


    It is a tremendous pleasure for Tiara Rose to say that someone will be happy in Sweets. Laughing to be caught by Lilliage, he takes the cake he can to the living room.


    I had Filine brew me some tea, and the Aquasteeds just got home.


    "I''m home, Tiara"


    "Welcome back, Master Aqua"


    When I welcome Aquasteed, I can mouth him gently on the temples. Ferres was embarrassed because he was next door too, but I can''t say anything because I''m happy. "Already......" he said, only a small disobedience, but Aquasteed is laughing.


    Ferres, who saw it, also tried to mouth it on the cheek of Lilliage, who welcomed him as a loser...


    "I''m home, Lilia"


    ''Welcome back. But you can''t because you''re embarrassed!


    He was eating a cute meatball punch from shy liliage.


    Tiara Rose keeps the two jackets, goes to the hanger and heads to the living room. Welcome is the cake we just finished.


    "Speaking of which, you said you''d make a cake"


    "Wow, that''s a cake with Lilia on it"


    Look at the cake on the table and praise Aquasteed for "it looks delicious". Ferres nailed it to the Lilliage chocolate I put on it.


    The four of us have a delicious cake and each have a neat time talking about what happened today.


    Ferres opens his mouth watching Lilliage cheek the cake with delight.


    "You''re here for Tiara Rose''s cure. How many days are you staying?


    "I have two weeks planned"


    When Aquasteed answers the question, then Ferres looks at Tiara Rose and suggests.


    "Right. If you like, I want Lilia to teach you some delicious food. I don''t know, Tiara Rose."


    "If you''ll excuse me, I''ll be happy"


    ''Are you sure!? Glad to hear it!


    After being able to move around as a little monster, Lilliage is blind to delicious dishes. Among other things, I especially like sweets and would like Ferres to eat them alone one day.


    I decided that Tiara Rose, who is good at cooking, could teach me, and my lily-age tail wobbles all over me.


    - Now the sweets will spread again!


    Aim, Marine Forest full of sweets.


    From the next day, relax in the morning and make a lilyage and treat in the afternoon. I spent the night reading books in the library to the extent that I didn''t fall asleep.


    But the happy time didn''t last that long.


    After a quiet day for about a week, an early horse with urgent news rushed to the villa. When I heard what was going on, I heard that the king had fallen.


    Currently Sotiris Marine Forest, King of Marine Forest. Aquasteed''s father.


    Let the knight who made the report out of breath rehydrate and get ready to go right back to the royal castle. Sooner or later, the Horse Knight doesn''t seem to know the details, so we need to get home as soon as possible.


    "How could His Majesty..."


    ''Tiara, me and Ferres are going back together.... I hope you''re all right''


    In Lilliage''s eyes, tears come from worry. To her, Sotiris is her own descendant. One of those beings who loves you like a child. You can''t be worried about Lilliage and Ferres.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Back in the royal castle, there was no change from usual.


    When the king falls, the upset runs, so I find myself keeping it a secret. Anxiously, Tiara Rose headed to the bedroom where Sotiris was resting, along with Aquasteed, Ferres and Lilliage.


    I was surprised when the knight on watch saw Ferres and Lilliage, but he didn''t do anything to say something in front of Aquasteed.


    Sotiris slept in the back of the room, organized with green, light-water conditioning, on a sleeping table where the off-white lace was arranged to fold over. Next to it, Queen Lavina accompanies her worryingly.


    "Aqua......!


    "I''m home, Mother."


    A quick peek into the bedroom allowed me to see the weak but well-conscious Sotiris.


    I''m relieved about that, but I can''t stay alert until I know the details. My doctor explained to me before I came here, but I was told that my name was uncertain.


    Fortunately, is there not a human out there who has had the same medical condition? Aquasteeds are given permission to visit because the infection is highly unlikely.


    Sotiris wakes up, supported by Lavina, and sees the Tiara Roses.


    "I''m sorry I said it was a trip."


    "I don''t mind. I''ll be back for the trip."


    "Your Majesty is safe and at ease. Rest now that I am perfectly well."


    Tiara Rose stares at Sotiris wondering what the hell is wrong with her. Maybe it''s not in this world, it''s a disease in Japan...


    Slightly skinny cheeks. Her complexion is not very good, and the neighborhood is formed under her eyes. When I listen to them, they say they have an appetite, but at night they get more fever, dizziness, and sloppiness.


    - At all, I don''t know what the disease is.


    I''ve never heard of worsening symptoms at night. When Tiara Rose faints, the voice of Lilliage reaches her ear, ''Maybe...'' from behind.


    "That was... Tiara Rose''s friend, Mr. Lilliage. Then you teamed up with King Fairy at the Sweet Games."


    ''Sotiris. Besides the explanations your doctor tells you, do you ever wake up all night long? Your body feels heavy like a stone and your breathing is shallow''


    ¨D¨D


    I guess there was something that came to mind in Lilliage''s explanation of what he said. Sotiris opened his eyes only for a moment and breathed small.


    It is clear from the state of Sotiris that it is true, but the Tiara Roses have not been briefed by their doctors. No, I guess I couldn''t dare tell him because I didn''t want him to worry.


    Though it''s a little awkward not to be told, it would be a consideration for Sotiris, who thought it would be a burden on Aquasteed up to his share of the work.


    "Dear Lilliage, are you aware of this disease?


    ''... Yes. It''s a very horrible disease. It is the initial symptoms that cannot be judged by their appearance. But gradually you start to feel your body as heavy as a stone, and you can''t help but breathe with the feeling of being crushed''


    "Right. But I''ve never heard of a disease like that before."


    It''s a ruthlessly dangerous disease, Lilliage told me.


    Ferres, who was holding Lilliage, leaves her with Tiara Rose to go to the front of Sotiris. Slowly reach down to your throat and look terribly sad.


    "It''s a very rare disease. I can''t believe there are such people in this day and age. It will be hard to breathe, breeze, bless this one."


    "... Huh!


    With the words of Ferres, a glimmer of wind overflows the room. That size is enough to show how much Ferres is loved by the fairies.


    Sotiris breathed heavily, but in the next moment it seemed easier to breathe and his expression calmed down a little.


    "Much easier. Thank you."


    "It''s superimposed"


    Ferres lowers, confirming that he is feeling better, receives and hugs a liriage from Tiara Rose.


    "Thank you, Ferres"


    "Yeah. I could see your face and it''s time for us to leave the room"


    "Yes."


    Staying too long would drain Sotiris'' health. The Tiara Roses uttered words of sympathy and followed Sotiris'' bedroom.


    Sotiris, who dropped off the Tiara Roses, talks to Lavina, next door, without hiding his surprise at what happened.


    "I never thought you could use the power of an empty fairy like that"


    "Yeah. But I was relieved that Master Sotiris seemed to breathe easier. Who the hell is that?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Remembering Ferres, who didn''t name him, Lavina tilts her neck.


    Seeing her like that, Sotiris gently lowered her mouth. Maybe you''ll die like this - yes, because I thought you would. But what Ferres did to himself, what Lilliage knew about the disease.


    Maybe we can still live.


    "Nevertheless, I''ve never seen his face before."


    "Oh, did he know?


    "No. But... I only know the name from birth"


    Sotiris did not miss hearing the name Ferres called by Lilliage. That name was the first name Sotiris remembered...


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Lord Ferres, Master Lilliage, do you have any idea what your father''s illness is?


    "... because once upon a time I got the same disease"


    "And Master Lilliage?


    After Sotiris'' bedroom, the Tiara Roses moved to the tea room.


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. Ferres and Lilliage. Sitting on the couch facing each other, talking about what happened earlier.


    Pay up, and Aquasteed confirms to Ferres and Lilliage what happened earlier. As far as Riliage speaking with a harsh look, I guess it''s not an easy illness.


    Aquasteed bites his lips and asks how to treat them. This is how Liliage lives, so I guess it''s not a disease that never helps.


    Instead of Lilliage, it was Ferres who answered the question.


    "I know only one way to cure that disease"


    "One?"


    "Yes. The way I cured Lilia. Unfortunately, I ran out of hands, but there was no other way."


    Look at Ferres shrugging his shoulders, and you can see that there really is no other way. If you had left it up to your doctor to explore ways to treat it, you would likely not be able to make it.


    "And. The doctors told me it''s unlimited, but it''s not like it''s not."


    "! Then I have to tell my mother to leave immediately"


    "Oh, I''m fine"


    Surprised by Ferres'' words, Aquasteed stands up to tell him right away but is controlled by the person of the day, not right away, so he doesn''t have to rush.


    "Aside from Lilia, there''s something that died of that disease. That''s on death, move. Is it a nearby person, a random person, or is there another law? I don''t know about that, but when the pathologist dies, a new person falls ill"


    "Are you unsure of the cause"


    "Yes. It''s a bad thing. So if you don''t treat Sotiris, you''re in big trouble. That''s a good chance of getting sick to Tiara Rose."


    Aquasteed trembles in a felicitous serious voice. Tiara Rose also held her mouth right next to her and breathed in its horror.


    Aquasteed tries to hear that only one way, and he hacks.


    "That way, maybe..."


    "It''s what Aquasteed imagined, no doubt about it. It''s just not like we can get that right now."


    Tiara Rose gets worried when she sees Aquasteed showing her troubled sleigh. There is some way, and I could have guessed in the current exchange that I could execute it to Aquasteed.


    But I also feel at the same time that it must be a terribly tough thing to do.


    - I support what Aqua has decided.


    ''It''s okay, Tiara. Believe in the Ferres.''


    "Dear Lilia! Yes, because I believe in Aqua."


    Right, Lilliage jumped over the table and landed on Tiara Rose''s lap. Lilliage''s also stroked his mundane fluff and calmed his mind just a little.


    From the mouthfeel of Ferres, it will probably take some time to get medication to cure Sotiris. Wishing there was something I could do to help, Tiara Rose watched over Aquasteed, who was seriously thinking about it.

 80 5. Circular ring light

    The Tiara Roses returned from their trip and rumors began to circulate a little after.


    That''s why Aquasteed should reign because the king is down sick. I had predicted these rumors would happen, but it''s still not comforting to hear.


    Tiara, there''s a crease between your eyebrows.


    "Ha! Don''t, if I..."


    Put your hands on your cheeks and try to move them against each other to loosen them up. Aquasteed laughed dull when he saw it, so Tiara Rose became even more hazy and aware of her own lapse and red.


    - If you want to, do something unexpectedly wrong!


    When I''m even red to my ear, a cough called "Kohon" gets in my ear. The source is Elliot.


    - Yes, this was Master Aqua''s office!!


    Elliot witnessed me embarrassing myself, and if I had a hole, I''d want to go in.


    Tiara Rose was now helping out in Aquasteed''s office. Nevertheless, it''s not that difficult. It looks at letters such as requests delivered by the public and determines them to be feasible, impossible, withheld, or otherwise.


    "Yeah, my next letter is much more... ''Glad to see more cafes handling cakes''. I''m happy for you, too."


    These letters are sorted into others.


    Aquasteed, who was watching how it went, smiles at Tiara Rose, who works hard to confirm the letter.


    Sure, I''m glad to hear that.


    "Yes. After all, I can''t separate food cravings from humans. You should be satisfied with your clothing and accommodation."


    As for Tiara Rose, I would like it to be more fulfilling.


    It is the job of Elliot and others to confirm the letter, but sometimes they want to hear the public''s voice and help with this job.


    In addition, there are reports of public facilities and roads that I want repaired because they are broken, and consultations about security. It''s a very rewarding job because I can see what the people think of the country.


    A strong light suddenly plunged indoors through the window as the three of us were working on Tiara Rose, Aquasteed and Elliot.


    "What!?"


    I look at the window in surprise, but that alone doesn''t tell the cause. Did a knight practice magic and something happen? Or has there been a case?


    Immediately Elliot checks out the window and confirms it in the garden, city order. Finally, he turned his gaze over the sky - opening his mouth gently.


    "Elliot?"


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed''s voices overlap what Elliot looks like.


    Looking over the sky the same way as what was going on, there was a glowing circle floating there. I can see whether glittering particles of light are gathered or emitting light.


    "I''ll check right away! I hope so, but you just can''t go check on that one. I''ll show the Knights the royal castle and the city if there''s anything unusual."


    "Oh, please"


    Though Elliot, a brilliant proximity, it''s impossible to go check the circle that floated high in the sky.


    Tiara Rose stares and wonders what the hell is going on. There should be no such precedent in the history of Marine Forest studied.


    - Could it be an event for the game?


    However, I have not heard such information from Acari or Olivia. Nor did the tactical book found in the villa say that the circle appeared in the sky.


    What is considered to be so is an irregular development such as that of Ferres and Lilliage. In the original game, he planned to take down Lilliage, a monster, for the ending. But this is how Lilliage is helping.


    Maybe there was a new game route.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    A few days passed without being able to identify the cause of the appearance of the circle ring.


    As a result of interviews conducted by the knights, it appears that no one or place is particularly harmed. When I asked the fairies, ''You''re beautiful!'' Everyone began to wonder if it was not a bad thing because they would reply.


    It''s the crown that showed up to congratulate the next king, Aquasteed! Yes, who the hell was the first person to say it?


    Rumors of people spread quickly, and the city became oblivious to the topic of showing up to congratulate Aquasteed on his reign.


    "Damn, I have trouble with people''s rumors"


    "You just have to think that''s all Master Aqua supports. You can''t honestly take that before Your Majesty is there..."


    Aquasteed breathes and puts his head on his shoulder so that he may lean against Tiara Rose.


    The two are now taking a carriage to the city''s central square. Because there were reports that the symbol of the fountain there was glowing.


    If you have any clues about the ring, go check it out.


    "I haven''t had enough tiaras in the last few days, including reporting..."


    "Dear Aqua,


    Smile in a sweet way.


    Tiara Rose also tries to keep her weight in Aquasteed and leans in with the two of us. The temperature coming from the shoulder mouth you touch is comfortable and you will always want to do this.


    "Tiara, too, am I missing?


    Aquasteed that tickles and laughs mischievously. Engage your fingers in honey pink hair to indulge in its luster. I lean my lips against my hair, but it immediately moves to my temples, eyes, and cheeks. And finally, touch Tiara Rose''s thin pink soft lips.


    "Mmm..."


    "Or, enough?


    After mouthing, he stares at Aquasteed''s golden eyes at close range.


    Tiara Rose''s occasional heart is about to explode. Enough, I don''t know. No matter how filled with aquasteeds, you will seek out that greedy self is not enough.


    It''s not strange whenever your lips touch you, just a short distance away.


    It''s just the two of us, so you can be bold just a little bit. That''s what I thought, and Tiara Rose turned her arm around to Aquasteed''s neck and mouthed softly.


    She is gently embraced back and kissed several times.


    "... ha, uhh, it''s a long time, Dear Aqua"


    "Really?"


    To be freed from the long mouthful, Tiara Rose was leaning back on the aquasteed. The opponent is sloppy, so I just have to think of him as the guy to be the main offense.


    I arrived at the destination square while I was falling asleep in the carriage.


    Because something needs to be done, the area around the square is sealed off and people are kept away.


    I haven''t let him near this investigation either, except for Elliot and Tarmo, who are waiting at the castle. There will be enough knights on guard in front of the containment zone.


    Just go to the fountain and under the symbol that it''s glowing.


    It''s usually a lively square, but I miss being idle and somewhere because of the lack of people. A fountain made of statues of the fairies of the woods, the sea and the sky, made with the implication that they are blessing this city.


    "Oh, you''re really glowing symbols...?


    - Is that it?


    "Doesn''t seem to have anything to do with the ring."


    The symbol was at the foot of the statue of the fairies. I don''t know if I see it because it''s usually where the water is flowing, but I guess now I know because it glowed.


    But above all, Tiara Rose looked familiar with its symbol.


    - It''s the game logo!!


    And I remember.


    That the square of the beginning, which was written in Olivia''s strategy book, is here.


    - That means it''s definitely a gaming event, right?


    This square, with the game logo, is where players and attacking characters meet up for a date or where many events with stills are available occur.


    I may be careless, but if any event starts, I get excited.


    "Elliot, stop the fountain water."


    "Yes!"


    When Aquasteed gives instructions, Elliot switches the switch right next to the fountain. Then I immediately saw the symbol of the fountain clearly.


    There was another sentence there, not just a glowing symbol.


    - Japanese!?


    Tiara Rose watching behind Aquasteed breathes unnoticed.


    Other than yourself, you''d think it was a pattern or something attached to a symbol, not a sentence. Slowly approached, checking the letters written.


    "Have the rings of kings of the woods, the sea, the sky and the starry sky, and pray, without anyone knowing"


    Now there are three King''s rings that Tiara Rose has. The ring of the Fairy King in the sky is worn by Aquasteed.


    I don''t know what will happen if I collect it, but it would mean I won''t move on from here unless I collect it. I have a nasty rule that if you tell Aquasteed why, he may cooperate, but he shouldn''t speak out.


    "It''s glowing, but you don''t know anything more. This has never happened before, so it probably has something to do with the circle..."


    "Looks like we''re gonna have to go back and get our records."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Next to Elliot taking records of the shape and glow of Mark, Aquasteed stands up and stares at it. That look is when you''re thinking of something.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "Oh, you''ve made me anxious. It''s okay, there''s no problem."


    To reassure her, Aquasteed smiles.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I think Tiara Rose sees the look on her husband''s face like that and sneers... she''s hiding something she knows.


    Aquasteed and I have been spending the closest time in years. When I''m really cornered, when I get an answer, when I''m worried, sometimes I''m characterised by the way I think.


    - Dear Aqua, less blinking.


    At times like this, there are often some conclusions in him.


    Conversely, the number of blinks increases when there are fewer clues and you are in a hurry. Of course, I would consider tricks and expressions, but I can afford Aquasteed right now. That''s Tiara Rose''s decision.


    I wonder what the hell you''re thinking.


    "Dear Aqua, is there anything I can do? There may be something I can do to help."


    "Thank you, Tiara. But not yet... no, I''m fine."


    ¡­¡­


    I am convinced that Aquasteed knows something about this beginnings square. ''Not yet,'' I guess you know when it comes to something happening.


    - Elliott and the others, of course, like I can''t tell you?


    Or does the Japanese content written here have something to do with it? I don''t know, the idea of wandering around inside Tiara Rose dominates.


    Elliot was on his way home from finishing the record, but Tiara Rose''s Sprout remained indelible. And at the same time, I can''t help but worry about the words written in Japanese.


    Why Aquasteed worries about something and can''t move on. I get to the idea that maybe I don''t know what to do because I can''t read Japanese.


    If so, the actions to be taken by Tiara Rose will be determined by themselves -.

 81 6. Mistakes

    Over the country is the light of a circle ring and a glowing game logo on the square at the beginning.


    I can only be sure that something absolutely outrageous is about to start.


    "Dear Aqua, how far... what do you know?


    You''re definitely hiding something from yourself.


    "Tiara?"


    "Huh? - Oh, it was in my voice...?


    "Just like that."


    Tiara Rose, who was inadvertently immersed in her own thoughts, but this was Aquasteed''s office. I can''t believe you accidentally had an idea about Aquasteed, disqualified as a warrant lady.


    If I can''t help it if I find out, I''ll honestly come to the conclusion that I''ll ask.


    "I couldn''t help but wonder about the circular ring and fountain symbol..."


    "Did you think I knew something?


    "... Yes, you''re right. Master Aqua was calm and seemed to know something. Could it be that you were hearing something from His Highness Ferres?


    Aquasteed is surprised because he didn''t expect me to say it in such a way as to approach certainty so far. And at the same time, I understand that you''re taking a good look at yourself.


    or so, what Aquasteed has is not so easy to say. Is it right that it''s harder to tell Tiara Rose than that?


    Tiara Rose gets depressed when she sees the troubled Aquasteed and seems like she shouldn''t have asked.


    "Of course, if you can''t talk, I won''t listen. But I know that Master Aqua is very troubled.... Can''t I help you?


    "Thanks. It''s so comforting to have Tiara"


    Aquasteed, rising from the concierge, comes all the way under Tiara Rose. Sit down next to me and quietly tell him, "It''s okay."


    Don''t worry. Smile back vaguely to Aquasteed, who strokes his head. Frankly, he''s apparently not willing to tell me. Sprouts swell at Aquasteed''s attitude as if it were deceptive.


    - I know you can''t talk.


    Aquasteed is royal, Prince Wang. There will be many things you cannot tell the Queen. Besides, Tiara Rose has been married from a neighboring country, so even more so.


    What you can''t say is understandable by reason. Yet it is - exclusivity.


    If you have something, you want to share it all. I know you''re protected by Aquasteed, but I miss that you can''t let me touch the core for a reason.


    When I realized that, the embarrassment sprouted. I wondered if I was so greedy. I initially thought the heroine in the sequel would rob me of Aquasteed, but I''m doing well.


    "Tiara? Her face is a little red, but could it be a cold?


    "What! No, you don''t. It''s okay......"


    Aquasteed''s big hand touches Tiara Rose''s forehead to measure heat. Cold and comfortable, a gentle mouthful came down my cheek when I accidentally closed my eyes.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "Tiara is to take a short break. I''m glad you''re worried about me, but Tiara suddenly gets impotent, so I don''t care."


    "It''s..."


    Sure you can''t deny it, but for Aquasteed''s sake, the event of the game! If I hear that, I can''t help but ignite my motivation.


    I dropped my shoulders slowly and decided that staying here any longer would likely interfere with Aquasteed''s work and I decided to rest in my room.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    As I was headed to the room with a clown, I found Lilliage sitting in the hallway window looking out. I''m staying with Ferres because I''m worried about Sotiris.


    - But it''s rare that Lilia is alone.


    I''m usually with Ferres, but what''s wrong?


    As I stared at Lilliage, I noticed Tiara Rose''s gaze and turned this way.


    ''Tiara! What''s wrong, in that place? That''s kind of a crying look......''


    "Dear Lilia... Me"


    ''If I may, I will listen to you. Let''s go to Tiara''s room''


    "... Yes"


    Lilliage smiled gently and even came to Tiara Rose''s room with me.


    Confirm that Filine has prepared tea and financi¨¨re and dropped back before explaining the earlier exchange. And he couldn''t help but control his emotions.


    ''You did, didn''t you? But Tiara is the queen of Aquasteed, so greed is natural. "


    "Is that right...... I am a royalty. I think it''s just right to be behind Aqua, but I want to be next door."


    "Wouldn''t you like to be next door"


    "Huh..."


    Hearing the words of a lightly said Lilliage, Tiara Rose has her eyes dotted.


    Tiara Rose, who remembers being Japanese, has the idea that women should be allowed to hit men. For that reason, I was wondering if it would be a good idea to honestly listen to Aquasteed''s decision.


    But this is Marine Forest, not Japan.


    It''s the game world.


    ''Unlike Ferres, I was born a civilian. That''s why I thought so differently. Even now, we often don''t know what Ferres is thinking, and we''re often not convinced''


    "Dear Lilia..."


    ''But I can''t help but have feelings for each and every one of them. We are alive.''


    Killing your own heart and living wouldn''t be fun, would it? and is questioned by Lilliage.


    "I have come as a marquis, as the queen of Aqua, the Crown Prince... to behave well"


    Otherwise, I thought the heroine would take all my seats. Aggressive Tiara Rose for the events of the game, but once Aquasteed annoys me, I cower.


    "Both Tiara and Aquasteed look like Ferres."


    "To His Highness Ferres...?


    "Yes. Conscious of my duty as royalty, I try to push my heart to death"


    "It''s..."


    Duty as royalty, Tiara Rose has grown up being taught from a young age. Even now that the memories of the previous life have been restored, the desire to do all for the good of the country has not disappeared.


    Tiara Rose takes that for granted.


    Probably both Aquasteed and Ferres.


    If I had to do that with instinct, I think there would be a part of me that I feel.


    ''Ferres is strong. I''ve always been king on my own. ¡­ I didn''t know much about royal duty.... I don''t like the sober language either''


    Therefore, Lilliage was sorry and hard to have to ask Tiara Rose and Aquasteed for their own untimely ends.


    Even though it was about me, I didn''t like it bothering Tiara Rose, who was irrelevant.


    But Ferres and Aquasteed accept that as a royal duty, naturally. I tell her that I really don''t understand it in Lilliage and that I always do it again.


    ''I mean, girls are always something they no longer do. Women always have to be made to do it by royal men!


    "Dear Lilia..."


    That claim is weird, and Tiara Rose accidentally squirts and laughs.


    "You''re finally smiling, Tiara"


    "Ah..."


    "It''s cuter to be laughing."


    "Yes, right..."


    Instead, he touched his cheek, relieving the tension on his face that was solidifying. I''m ashamed to do it in front of Aquasteed, but if it''s in front of Lilliage, the same woman, there''s no problem.


    Take a big, deep breath and calm your feelings.


    I can''t help it anymore.


    I pinched the bread and my own cheek with both hands and said, "Okay!" and get in the mood.


    Lilliage, who saw it, squirts her eyes and laughs, just like Tiara Rose.


    "Tiara has a very masculine side once in a while."


    "Huh!? Well, is it?


    For the first time in my life, I was told I was manly because I intended to live softly as a courtier. But I don''t feel bad about being praised for ''there is good''.


    "That''s right. Tell me about Lord Lilia and His Highness Ferres. You two founded the country, so come on. Wasn''t it tough?


    "Fine, if it''s Tiara''s favor."


    Lilliage eats her finanche and groans, ''Let''s talk from what''. And then, he remembered something. ''Speaking of which,'' he cut out the conversation.


    "When we founded this country, we took the Fairy King''s position."


    "Take the position, is it?


    "Now, I did hear that there was a game called Playing Fairies on the Board that was simplified."


    "Yes. Master Claire is very strong."


    The game is something we''ve all played before. It''s a game where you can leave three pawns on a 5x5 mass eye and pinch them like reversi to make the other pawn your own.


    I remember the Tiara Roses always stayed defeated in a game that required knowledge.


    "But I can''t believe you took the position... didn''t you join forces to build a nation?


    ''Take a position, you might think it''s abusive the way you say it. This is done by men to show their power. I''m so strong that I can protect this place.''


    It was an initiative about where I would give/protect my blessings in this country.


    It was done because the fairy kings love Marine Forest, Lilliage says. Marine Forest is such a rich land because of the positions taken.


    Ferres'' efforts would have been even more daunting to think that it was a country as good as the fairies wanted to take it from each other.


    Tiara Rose is impressed to hear that explanation and wonder if she did such an event to make one country. A human being who knows this founding secret may be none other than himself.


    - Does Master Aqua know?


    I think so, and a certain thought comes to mind.


    I was wondering if maybe, like myself, Aquasteed is hearing this story from Ferres.


    I hear that, and the idea comes to mind that you might be worried. Of course, it''s only Tiara Rose''s prediction, but Aquasteed just made the King of the Starry Skies ring. It wouldn''t be strange if things like positions were involved.


    "Perhaps the cause of Tiara''s sprouts is to take a position."


    Currently, this Marine Forest position is held by Ferres, Keith, Crail and Pearl.


    "If Aquasteed is to become the true king, we must take the Fairy King''s position and take the position from Ferres"


    "I dispute with His Highness Ferres...?


    ''No, just show strength. Ferres is already a grandfather, so it''s time to slow him down''


    Lilliage''s tone of not having to worry about anything is bright and relieves Tiara Rose. And at the same time, I''m still convinced that what I was concerned about is the right thing to do.


    Lilliage gets off the couch a little and goes out to the balcony. As Tiara Rose continued, Lilliage on the railing stared at the circle above.


    ''This circle, perhaps¡­ came out because Marine Forest is looking for a new king''


    "But Master Aqua is worried about something and can''t be king...?


    ''Maybe so, but I don''t know that much. If it''s Ferres, you might find out, but I''m sure he won''t tell you''


    Lilliage, with her cheeks swollen up, laughs, saying, ''It''s no longer true''.


    Ferres doesn''t tell me what he thinks is unnecessary to me. I''m sure it''s to keep you from worrying or putting you in danger...... that''s soooo much longer. As my wife, I want to stand next to Ferres. "


    "Dear Lilia,"


    I know exactly how that feels! And Tiara Rose snorts full of strength.


    "So I ignored Ferres'' opinion and kept swallowing my powers, and I became a monster,"


    "Huh."


    "Ferres, I was hoping it would be easier."


    Wouldn''t Lilliage be a better man? Though I just didn''t put it in my mouth. Whatever it was, it worries me that it was too much.


    ''Nevertheless, there was no way Ferres could have helped if he hadn''t. So it turned out to be Aurai. "


    "Were you..."


    Tiara Rose feels sorry for reminding me of the hard things. But Lilliage doesn''t seem to care, he stays smiling.


    Return indoors from the balcony and eat the remaining cookies for two. In the meantime, what Tiara Rose thinks is the information obtained from Lilliage and the development of a game that could possibly be.


    The light of the circle would be for Aquasteed to establish his position as king of the new starry sky.


    As far as the message in the square of beginnings is read, the signal for the start is the rings of the kings. The problem is in that it is who collects it and prays.


    - The text was written in Japanese.


    I can imagine that this is an event that the heroine of the game should do.


    Tiara Rose is a villain''s warrant, but she won''t have a problem because she has a track record of being able to get into the fairy kings'' hidden aisles. All you have to do is collect four rings and Tiara Rose will pray.


    That way, the fairy king''s positioning begins.


    Exactly, the square where it started.


    But then, a concern passes through the back of the brain.


    When it comes to having the current king, wouldn''t it take the form of taking over the country if we took up positions...... Nevertheless, the people will not be calm with the light of the circle still on all the time.


    "Looks like you''re worried"


    "! Dear Lilia..."


    ''Tiara, please. Press Aquasteed''s back and make him king in the true sense. I want Ferres to be free and see the wider world, not just this country.''


    Hearing Lilliage''s serious voice, Tiara Rose swallowed her sagging and spitting. Ever since the founding of the kingdom, Ferres has been entrusted with the responsibility of King of the Starry Skies.


    Sure enough, I also think Tiara Rose needs to be free and determined.


    - Collect the rings and move on to the square event that begins.

 82 7. Ill sneak up on you......!

    Though I was determined to proceed with the event, to do so I must have the ring of the Empty Fairy King that Aquasteed holds.


    Tiara Rose, who had finished bathing, was worried about how to get it while grinding on the bedside.


    Exactly, "Give me the ring!" It''s not something you can lend me. "It said something that if I told you why, you might lend it to me, but someone shouldn''t know about it.


    I mean, we have to keep Aquasteed from spreading it.


    - I don''t really want to hide anything.


    "Tiara?"


    "Ah, Master Aqua. Welcome back."


    "I''m home. I could have slept with you"


    Aquasteed''s workload has increased since the king lay low on his illness. The medical condition also still shows no signs of recovery, which makes me more worried every day.


    It just doesn''t seem like there''s any way to get it fully healed. Although Tiara Rose didn''t know how to do it, Aquasteed and Ferres looked grasping it.


    "I was fine," says Aquasteed, who looks like he stopped by his father''s bedroom.


    "Appetite seems to be the same, and I''m relieved about that"


    "It''s important to have something to eat."


    "It''s just that my mother seems to be in better health care."


    Aquasteed crept onto the bedroom and fell asleep beside Tiara Rose. Keep your arms spinning to your hips and being held somewhere sweet.


    The gesture is cat-like and cute, but all I''m talking about is worrying.


    "Lady Lavina...... I''m worried, so I know how that feels. Can I prepare a delicious treat and invite you to a tea party? Maybe it annoys me..."


    "No, invite Tiara if you want. If you can, it''s better outside than indoors."


    "Okay."


    With all the pulling into the room, Lavina really is better off. Aquasteed says he wants me to be forced to take him, even if I tell him I don''t like him in person.


    "You can''t force Her Highness to do just that," he laughs bitterly.


    "I''ll have a tea party with you then. That way, we''ll be forced to bring him in, won''t we?


    "If Aqua says so, fine..."


    "Yeah. I''m looking forward to it"


    "You have an extraordinarily delicious cake. Of course, something else."


    If you realize it, you will feel calm and Tiara Rose will feel calm. Aquasteed is harder than he is because his father is sick. Thinking about it, I felt like something I had grabbed on my chest had fallen off.


    Tiara Rose continues her words as she gently strokes Aquasteed''s hair.


    "I hope it gets better soon. Looks like Lilia had it before... and I''m sure it''ll heal, won''t it?


    "... right. I''ll fix it."


    "Master Aqua."


    Listen to Aquasteed and accidentally correct your posture. Sitting on the sleeping table, Aquasteed rolls down on his back with his head on Tiara Rose''s lap. Knee pillow.


    Aquasteed, who closed his eyes slowly, seemed to be thinking of something. No, that could have been close to determination.


    The next time I pointed those eyes at Tiara Rose, there was no stray.


    "I want to be king of the starry sky."


    ¨D¨D


    To a sudden confession, breathtaking.


    A moment of silence flows through the properly quiet indoors, but it is again driven by a clear Tiara Rose breath.


    "Tiara might have a hard time -"


    "That''s okay, that''s okay."


    "... tiara?


    Blocking Aquasteed''s words, Tiara Rose roughs up her voice.


    "More, involve me. Dear Aqua, it is not enough to be protected by Aqua. I want to walk next door."


    Breathe on your shoulders and tell Aquasteed what you thought. There were twitching tears in my eyes, and I was so glad that they told me of their determination.


    Tears overflow and tears that convey Tiara Rose''s cheeks fall on Aquasteed''s cheeks. Squeeze it at your fingertips, Aquasteed licks it with pepper.


    !!


    "Soggy."


    "Oh, of course! What are you doing, Dear Aqua!!"


    Hurry and rub your eyes with your hands and wipe your tears.


    "Here, if you do that, it''ll turn red"


    No, Aquasteed gently untied Tiara Rose''s hand. Tears pull in as they are gently mouthed by the eyes that are crying.


    I get wiped with the cuffs of Aquasteed''s nightwear and on the contrary I''m sorry. But I don''t even have just the right handkerchief or anything......


    Tiara Rose tries to change the subject so as to hide her embarrassment.


    - Confectionery, no, no, uh, yeah... yeah!


    "Dear Aqua, show me the ring!


    "Give me the ring?


    Aquasteed chuckles at the sudden, overly topical shift.


    I''m ashamed of you for doing that, but I don''t realize that even Aquasteed had an original operation to get me to show you the ring.


    "The Fairy King''s Ring in the Sky Can Expand Your Voice"


    "Yes, I know"


    When you want to deliver your voice to the people, nothing would be more convenient. There are newspaper-like mediums in this world, but there are no televisions or radios that tell something in real time.


    Aquasteed pulls it out of his finger and hands the ring to Tiara Rose. I''m glad I didn''t get any vigilance, but I actually can''t believe you''re showing me to get this - I wouldn''t be able to tell you if my mouth ripped.


    If you look so far off, you might be able to sneak it out while you''re asleep.


    The ring of the Fairy King in the Sky, created by shredding the opal, is clear and wide across. Usually, it''s stuck on Aquasteed''s right thumb.


    "It''s not a good idea to rely too much, but it''s a fact that you''re being helped."


    "Yes."


    As for that, Tiara Rose agrees.


    Unnecessarily, we should not use more power than humans could otherwise have. Identify and use when you really need it. That would be the responsibility imposed on those who became owners.


    - But I have to sneak up on this ring.


    I don''t mean to be the kind of guy who steals without permission, but if I don''t, I won''t move on. There is no need for Tiara Rose to get lost here because Aquasteed spoke of when he would be king.


    "Thank you, Master Aqua. It''s just called the Fairy King''s Ring in the Sky, and it''s so beautiful. Transparency is the best."


    Don''t forget to sneak it into Aquasteed''s fingers and make sure it feels sneaky sized.


    "... Huh"


    "Are you sleepy? Dear Aqua,"


    "A little. I''ve been packing up a lot of work lately, and I think a lot."


    "Let''s go to bed now," Tiara Rose lays down too, seeing as she groans. I hug her with my arms all the way from my head and stroke Aquasteed''s back.


    Then he buried his face in his chest and immediately began to groan. When I think I''m so tired, I don''t think I can put too much strain on myself.


    - If the event is troubling you, let me fix it!


    Go to the first square and pray. I''m proud that I''m the only one who can do that so far, and I don''t want to give that role to anyone else.


    "... la ~ lara ~"


    Like a lullaby, sing in a slow tone.


    Tiara Rose, like a cradle, invited Aquasteed to a comfortable sleep.


    That, of course, is no exception for Tiara Rose, who was lying with me. When I realized it, I slept well in a hug.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Mmm... Huh?


    When I woke up feeling a paralysis in my arm on my lid, I had an aquasteed head in front of me. Unexpectedly, I''m about to raise my voice, but I endure it where it is in inches.


    "Oh well... I fell asleep with Master Aqua in my arms"


    Just below Aquasteed''s head was his left arm acting as a pillow. Sure, this paralyzes me, but it also raises the question whether Aquasteed, who always has an arm pillow on himself, is okay.


    Gently pull your arm out so you don''t wake him up and put him to sleep on the pillow.


    He seems to be asleep and has no sign of waking up at all. Pressure from the nobles who want Aquasteed to reign in daytime work, in his father''s illness, in the light of the circle that appeared above him.


    A lot of things are on Aquasteed.


    "Good day, Master Aqua"


    I need to spoil you a lot more tomorrow while I gently stroke your head! What a thought. Ha.


    - Maybe now you can sneak out the ring?


    Aquasteed is so asleep that he won''t wake up even if he moves it a little, and I don''t know if this chance will come after tomorrow.


    Waking up in the middle of the night makes me wonder if it''s a miracle at all.


    "... hey, I''ll just borrow it"


    Tiara Rose gently pulls the Fairy King''s ring out of Aquasteed''s finger. I put it on my right thumb and wondered if it was awfully large - but the size was adjusted to fit my fingers perfectly.


    "! Wow, you''re getting to fit the owner''s finger"


    You don''t seem to have to worry about dropping the ring or anything like this.


    Tiara Rose gently gets out of her bedroom and goes to her room. Choose moveable and ruffled outfits from the clothing room and change quietly.


    If you want to make any noise, the knight of the escort in front of the door will suspect you.


    Bring the hair together in one piece so that it is not disturbing, and dough it in a low position.


    White trousers prepared for horseback riding and a simple blouse on top. A deep blue jacket with lace was woven and a slightly disguised conscious change was completed.


    "Okay, now it''s perfect! And then how do we get out of this room..."


    If I want to go out alone at midnight like this, I know Tarmo will disagree greatly with me. On the contrary, they would wake up Aquasteed and report this.


    Tarmo''s confidence is close to zero because he jumped into a fountain where safety had not previously been confirmed in order to help Lilliage.


    "Oh, yeah. Olivia''s strategy book had all the hidden passages of the Royal Castle."


    It''s a passage that also exists in Tiara Rose''s room.


    From the main road just to go outside, the road to the sewage, a comprehensive hidden passage leading to a room with a royal castle and it is on a considerable scale.


    Tiara Rose managed to memorize only the hidden passageways connected from her room, but Olivia had all the hidden passageways of the Royal Castle listed in her strategy book.


    In a way, it was a moment when I thought Olivia''s enthusiasm was horrible.

 83 8. To the Beginning Square

    The hidden passage in Tiara Rose''s own room leads to the emergency exit and the hallway next to the courtyard.


    "You shouldn''t use it for emergencies."


    I don''t know what the exit is in, and I shouldn''t leave any traces of it being used to make it possible for intruders or anything like that.


    For this reason, it is the best route to exit the corridor that is normally used.


    Sneak out of the hidden aisle and look around for any knights around. If they come this far and find us, all the maneuvers will become water bubbles.


    Midnight courtyard, very quiet. Yet above the sky there is a circular ring shining, very bright.


    This season that spring is over and summer is almost upon us. As usual, roses are planted, but also sweet peas of bright and beautiful colour. The sweet scent relaxed the nervous Tiara Rose.


    - All you have to do is go to the square.


    I usually went by carriage, but I just have to walk away this time. It''ll take a lot of time, but I have to work hard to get one person in the mood.


    "In the meantime, go look at the gate. - Huh?


    I heard a horse called Hihin in Tiara Rose''s ear trying to move. I get anxious that something has happened because I don''t usually use horses at this time.


    - Let''s go sneak in and see how it goes.


    If there were any incidents, it is possible that the knight would rush to Aquasteed for a report. If that happens, the absence of yourself next to the Aquasteed that happened becomes a further major incident.


    The sound of the horse was the passage leading from the courtyard to the gate out of the city. It''s the part where Tiara Rose thought she was going to have a hard time getting through because there are trees at both ends of the aisle and the view is good.


    "You''d better go ahead and sneak in... the knight on the lookout will find you"


    Sneak peek through the gaps in the plants, but no knights.


    Apparently, the timing of the patrol was good. While I was at it, I checked and tried to get through it just a little bit - Pittari and Tiara Rose''s leg stopped.


    Tiara Rose''s gaze was pointed ahead - there was a horse. That''s what I expected. But there was a problem with the person on the horse.


    No, it would be huge.


    "Dear Acari!?"


    The long, glossy black hair was wrapped in one, wearing trousers for horseback riding rather than the usual adorable dress, and weaving his coat in feathers. Is it something like heroine to ride a horse in a Rin position?


    "Ah, Dear Tiara!"


    When Tiara Rose called Acari''s name, she waved her hand from the horse and came here in a high-tension manner, even though it was midnight.


    "Dear Acari, here in Marine Forest... or it''s midnight now..."


    "Because it''s a circle of light over the head of Marine Forest!? You can''t let an event like this get away with it!! No, I''m glad I practiced horseback riding"


    "Uh..."


    After all, Tiara Rose sighs.


    Think about that, like, if you''ve got proper Halt Knights permission, or if you''ve been working out a schedule or a plan... but I don''t feel like I can do as much as I''d expect with an Akali opponent.


    And Akali also looks at Tiara Rose and notices a different outfit and tilts her neck.


    "Dear Tiara, what are you doing here?


    "Uh..."


    "That outfit, you''re going somewhere, right?... Maybe not, but don''t tell Master Aqua, right?


    ".................. Yes"


    Behind words of questionable content, Akali''s eyes gleam. You think it''s just slipping into the beginning of the event Safe!! But you think it is.


    Tiara Rose sighed loudly, without hiding.


    "For once, I''ll confirm... you didn''t come alone, did you?


    "I''m here with a few knights, properly. If you were alone, you wouldn''t even forgive Haltnights."


    "Yes..."


    I wonder if you have permission.


    The knights who came with Akari said they had already rested after checking with the person on night duty to confirm their stay, etc. Akali seems to be here alone because he wants to hit the wind a little at night.


    He said he was going to say hello to the Aquasteeds again tomorrow morning.


    "Master Akali is in the night breeze...?


    Tiara Rose is surprised that she is not a child who does such a flair. "I knew you wouldn''t mislead me," Akali laughs and tells me why.


    "That''s pre-construction."


    "Can I ask you the truth?


    "Since we got here, Master Tiara has been traveling. I was wondering if there was something there, so I waited here."


    I was surprised to hear Akali speaking sarcastically.


    ''Cause I didn''t think my actions were finding out this way either. Akali excels in magic and talent because he can use the power of holy prayer. If you trace Tiara Rose''s magic, you''ll know where she is.


    I don''t mind Tiara Rose holding her head, and Akali prompts her to go on.


    "So where are you going?


    "... Beginning Square"


    "Beginning Square!! Sounds like some amazing event is about to start. All right, Dear Tiara, get in the back!


    Akali rushes to get in the back for now, even though he hasn''t told us anything about the details.


    Sure, it would be best if you could work with me because I have a clam here. I told him only that there was a situation and he couldn''t give me the details, and Tiara Rose decided to let him ride to Akali''s horse.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "No - this was my first time for two, but you can handle it pretty well!


    "Dear Acari, look right ahead!!"


    The gates that Tiara Rose thought were the hardest questions could be easily slipped through by the acari using magic. It''s magic that makes your existence rare.


    Pretty difficult magic, but I admire that''s heroin. I don''t like magic. I can''t use it on Tiara Rose, so I''m just a little jealous of the clams I manipulate freely.


    The wind at night is still a little cold on my skin.


    But my body gets nervous with two rides of horses I''m unfamiliar with. If you''re careful not to fall, you''re going to get really nervous.


    "Dear Tiara, are you okay ~?"


    "It''s okay...... Huh!


    "We''ll be there soon, the square at the beginning. I''m so excited about what''s out there, I''m going to speed it up!"


    "Stop, be normal Dear Akali!!"


    I guess I''ve been through sleep before. The clam tension is just going up, and Tiara Rose is having a hard time just following it.


    Running his horse a little enough, Tiara Rose and Akali arrived at the beginning square.


    Just like last time, there is a fountain in the center of the square with a glowing game logo. The water in the fountain remains stopped and looks very fantastic because it is bright in the dark at night.


    Connecting his horse to a nearby street lamp, Akari skipped to the fountain.


    "What the hell kind of event is going on here... Japanese?" Without anyone knowing, hold the ring of the king of the woods, the sea, the sky, the stars, and pray, "Hmm, you have to have the ring."


    I immediately checked the glowing logo and the Japanese acari, but I tilt my neck not knowing what was going on.


    The game of the sequel takes down the monstrous Lilliage for the ending, but in this world we are saving the Lilliage, and I don''t think there seems to be a concept of the ending in the first place.


    But Akali also knows what this ring is. Tiara Rose takes the rings from the woods, the sea and the starry sky. Aquasteed owns each empty ring.


    "The fact that Master Tiara snuck in here... Aqua''s ring, you got it, didn''t you?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Otherwise, you wouldn''t bother coming in the middle of the night, would you? And the eye of an acari tells me.


    Tiara Rose silently makes her hands look clammy. There were rings of all fairy kings and rings of the starry sky created by Aquasteed.


    "Wow. We have all the rings!... but I can''t believe he defeated and took Aqua"


    "I won''t do that!


    I immediately argue with the acari, who opens his eyes wide and shows surprise. There''s no way that can happen that you have to take down your favorite aquasteed and get a ring.


    "But I often get the ring from Master Aqua..."


    "I borrowed it gently because I was asleep. Dear Aqua, He seemed a little troubled... I thought maybe it was because the event wouldn''t go forward"


    "Ah I see..."


    Indeed, Akali is also convinced that the event will not go on forever unless he can read the Japanese language of the fountain.


    "But that''s why you didn''t give me the details,"


    ''Cause it seemed like I shouldn''t have told anyone.


    "Then I can''t help it. In the meantime, move on with your event! You''re so excited about what happens."


    Nodding at Acari''s words, Tiara Rose kneels before the fountain logo. Together, all the rings he was wearing showed a glittering, pale glow.


    Unexpectedly we both get a voice in its beauty.


    "Wow, beautiful..."


    Tiara Rose slowly takes her eyes and poses as a prayer.


    Praying is, of course, peace in Marine Forest.


    - May this country be full of blessings.


    Then, as if to echo Tiara Rose''s prayer - the circle that was shining above added more light. A small star glows around the ring, illuminating the marine forest.


    And a larger demonic formation appeared at his feet than the two Tiara Roses who prayed and the Akali who were beside him.


    "- Huh!!"


    "Wow, what is this... transfer magic!?"


    Tiara Rose in a hurry, not knowing what happened, and Akali, who decides it''s a metastasis with a magical feeling. That guess was on, and the two of them disappeared from before the fountain.

 84 9. Positioning the Kings: Part One

    Tiara Rose and Akari were transferred by the Demon Square in a room about ten tatami in a circle.


    The walls, etc. are all made of crystals, surrounded by clear light. There seemed to be no other path or room to follow, but a pedestal had been set up in the central part. But nothing is placed on top of it.


    "What the hell is this room...?


    Tiara Rose looks around, but nothing has changed except there is a pedestal. Acari also looked at the pedestal and said, "What do you use it for?," he leans his neck.


    Acari tries to touch the pedestal to see if anything happens, but nothing in particular happens.


    "Hmmm...... In the meantime, I think it''s Master Tiara who can move the event forward, so I''ll touch the pedestal?


    "Well..."


    If you can''t help standing still, Tiara Rose goes to the front of the pedestal.


    It''s a pedestal made of crystals, just like a room, and is circular. It is easy to imagine that it is a key point because it glows lightly.


    - I hope the event progresses and the problems of Master Aqua are resolved.


    I think so, Tiara Rose tense but touches the pedestal.


    I guess this behavior was the right one. A strong light emanates from the ring and Tiara Rose and Akali close their eyes to the glare.


    The exciting feeling of what the hell is going to happen would be a lie if I told you it wasn''t. But to the voice he heard, Tiara Rose breathed.


    "... what the hell, Tiara?


    "Uh... Dear Aqua?


    The light stopped and it was Aquasteed who was ahead of Tiara Rose opening her eyes.


    "We''re here too."


    !!


    You can hear it from behind Tiara Rose, Keith''s voice.


    Turning hastily, Aquasteed, Keith, Claire, and Ferres were there.


    "You''re so unsolicited..."


    While Keith smiles bitterly, he looks around the room.


    Following that, Claire sighed.


    "I miss you, here. Long time no see."


    "I didn''t think you''d be the wingman to come in this way."


    - Guys, you know what''s going on?


    Aquasteed gently hugs the confused Tiara Rose. but I can read anger emotions from that look. No doubt, I am angry at you for acting on your own.


    No matter how much you get out of here, there''s no reason you shouldn''t be forced to transfer the Aquasteeds.


    "Oh, I''m sorry...... Well, no one should know."


    "When I woke up, I was worried because there was no tiara on the side"


    "... Yes"


    Ferres, who was quiet, opened his mouth after honestly seeing Tiara Rose apologize.


    "Well, it''s been a long time since I''ve played a game. The Fairy King of the Sea is asleep, but we all understand that, don''t we?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Hearing Ferres'' words, everyone''s expression turned into something serious.


    Aquasteed hugging Tiara Rose has gained a little strength, so you probably know what you''re going to do. The only two people who don''t know anything are Tiara Rose and Akali.


    "You don''t seem to know Tiara Rose, shall I explain? This is the starting point for the Kings to gain their position."


    "Position...?


    "Yes."


    As a result of Tiara Rose''s prayer, the event that arose was a compulsive ''Fairy King''s Position Taking''. The first time the kings took up their positions was when they founded Marine Forest.


    The Fairy King took the position in a tactical strategy to determine his realm. There is also an implicit understanding that if anything happens, we will settle for the position. This is because if the kings fight, there will be damage to the earth.


    "When I founded Marine Forest, the three fairy kings blessed me. But let''s talk about who will bless where in Marine Forest. Then I thought I should grasp the earth to bless"


    "Do you mean that the kings get their position to show their power?


    "You''re right, Tiara Rose. And I fought in the same position to show that the king of this country deserved it."


    Hear the words of Ferres, and nod so much.


    - Then the purpose of this Fairy King position is... Ah!


    "Your Highness Ferres, what is this..."


    I see you''ve noticed.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The first fairy king''s position was taken when the country was founded.


    This can be called, in other words, when Ferres became king of the starry sky.


    And this time, it will be because Aquasteed will be king of the starry sky.


    Tiara Rose''s prayers have declared the beginning of Aquasteed''s positioning to become a true king.


    "Dear Aqua, I..."


    "It''s okay, Tiara. I''ll be fine. Whatever you say, Tiara will be there for you."


    That''s all you can do, I tell you.


    "Aquasteed, you know the rules, right?


    "... Yes"


    Hearing Ferres'' inquiry, Aquasteed nodded forcefully.


    Marine Forest territory is filled with blessings of fairies, though invisible to men.


    It''s a gem, it''s a coral, it''s a flower, it''s in that shape. When you get it, that''s your realm.


    That this is'' taking a position ''.


    The position is divided into square squares within the marine forest. There is a blessing in that mass to make it into a position. So the participants have to make the positions their own one by one.


    However, it is also possible to take the position.


    Let''s say, for example, that Keith got his position.


    When Crayle gets the positions on both ends, the pinched Keith position becomes Crayle''s position.


    Would it be easy to understand when it comes to mechanisms like reversing?


    At the end of the whole explanation, Ferres goes on to say, "Bye."


    "Shall we begin, Tiara Rose? The oath of initiation."


    "Am I?


    "Of course. Originally, this game should have its own ring if the king is to play it. But we need all the rings for a third party to force us to start."


    Knowing that fact, Tiara Rose is breathtaking.


    He said he had definitely done something extra. Knowing the circumstances, Ferres, the Fairy King, and Aquasteed knew how to declare their own initiation.


    "Me, you''ve done something extra..."


    "No, that''s not true. It''s a good separation. Sometimes it''s better for someone to force me to move on than time passes for mischief like this. Tiara Rose, put your hands on the pedestal and declare."


    "... Yes"


    Ferres tells me that Tiara Rose touches the pedestal.


    My body trembles just a little bit, either from nervousness or anxiety that I don''t know what will happen. But Aquasteed, who was right next to me, smiles gently, "It''s okay".


    - Master Aqua told me that he would be king of the starry sky.


    That, I''m sure, would be the answer to Aquasteed, who troubled me out.


    "Dear Aqua, I pray for Aqua. I''m always on my own, sorry."


    "If you say that, so am I. I just made you anxious, I''m sorry."


    It''s a little weird that the two of us apologized to each other, and I laugh unexpectedly.


    "Now take the oath... Huh!?"


    "By bringing the three rings together, we can stabilize the land. The time limit is three hours''


    "Tiara?"


    "Didn''t you hear a voice right now?


    "No...?


    "But it does..."


    Neither Akali nor the Ferres, including Aquasteed, could hear what Tiara Rose had heard.


    But Tiara Rose clearly heard that voice. A powerful voice sounds in the room.


    ''- That would stop too much power from eroding a person''s body''


    "Huh...?


    Tiara Rose opened her eyes wide to the words she heard again.


    That means Ferres, who lost his life under the influence of enormous power, or Lilliage, who has changed his appearance to a monster. And - no matter what happens next, it means Aquasteed can''t beat himself.


    Then Tiara Rose has one path to choose from.


    Creating a marine forest that unites the power of the ring and no one feels hard about it. I''ll stick to this.


    And soon, information poured into Tiara Rose about what to do.


    "- Oath! I hereby declare the commencement of the Fairy King''s position!


    Tiara Rose tells him so, but soon leaves the pedestal. Because of the sudden behavior, Aquasteed also sees Tiara Rose wondering what happened.


    "Dear Aqua, I''m sorry. I will do what I can!


    "Tiara?"


    Tiara Rose goes to the wall of the room and wears a ring.


    Then a door appeared on the wall all the time. It was Claire who reacted immediately to that. I don''t even know what Tiara Rose is trying to do, but I do know what lies ahead.


    "! Tiara Rose, what are you going to do"


    For that reason, I tell him that I can''t let him go without knowing why.


    "Dear Claire, I''m fine. I will do my best to help Aqua..."


    "What do you mean - Oh, wait!


    Tiara Rose disappeared across the door and Claire chased it.


    The only ones left in the room were Aquasteed, Ferres, Keith and Acari.


    Ferres giggles when he sees the two of them leaving, telling him what a carefree thing to say about "you''re fine". And look at Aquasteed at the pedestal, and ask.


    "Are you glad Aquasteed didn''t go after you?


    "Tiara said she would do what she could. Then I just believe in Tiara and do what I can."


    Truth is, I''d very much like to go after Tiara Rose.


    The fact that Claire chased him is an anxiety element somewhere, and I want him to confess everything he thinks.


    "I... will be king of the starry sky"


    Ferres smiled gently at Aquasteed''s determination.

 85 10. Positioning the Kings: Middle Edition

    "Damn, Tiara''s still unpredictable."


    "If Keith tells you, you''re done."


    "Wait, I don''t want Ferres to tell me."


    After Tiara Rose and Claire leave the room, Keith sighs, "Oh, boy. Ferres makes fun of that, but from those who watch it, all three of them may be similar.


    Akali, who was quietly watching a series of flows, was constantly on to what was about to happen.


    "Dear Aqua, you''re going to take a position and bless Marine Forest, right?


    "Oh.... or why is Miss Acari here?


    "Of course that''s natural to rush with a Marine Forest importance! I was just able to rendezvous with Master Tiara, and I was lucky to be here."


    Phew Phew and Doya. Don''t tell me everyone thought it was a hassle when they saw the clams telling them with their faces...


    "But you mean going around the whole Marine Forest, right? That sounds tough."


    "Turn around. Even I care about this country."


    "... Dear Aqua"


    Once you travel from the edge of the territory to the edge, it will take more than a few days, though not very much. The fairy kings can use the metastasis originally, but Aquasteed can''t.


    In that part, I consider it to be an overwhelming disadvantage.


    Akali puts his finger on his mouth and thinks "hmm" to worry.


    Acari loves all the characters in the sequel, including the Fairy King. Of course it was Aquasteed who was attacking me in the main, but he also wants everyone to win.


    Seeing a troubled acari makes me anxious about what the hell I''m going to do this time, but that was Aquasteed''s worry.


    "After all, I''m guessing Dear Aqua this time! Whatever, because he is my best friend''s husband!!"


    "Oh...?


    "It''s okay, leave it to me. It looks like heroin."


    Akali, who slapped his chest more and more, kneels before Aquasteed and prays with his hands together. - It''s the power of holy prayer that only heroin can handle.


    "! Miss Acari, what are you really going to do!!"


    "Please shut up. It''s the first time I''ve really prayed, so it''s rare."


    Laughing more, Akali mouths words of prayer.


    "The magic of Lapis in me, convert that power and give it to the temporal."


    "- Huh!!"


    Acari''s prayer becomes magic and is converted into the power of Aquasteed.


    The light enveloped Aquasteed and transformed it into a new force that could only be used for a while.


    "Okay, it worked. To Master Aqua, I lent you the power of my metastasis. I don''t think we''re going to get behind the fairy kings."


    "Is that possible to transfer the power of metastasis..."


    "It was a bet to succeed."


    Akali laughs more and makes pieces.


    "Come on, good luck and be king. Dear Aqua! I look forward to the new marine forest that Tiara and Aqua will make."


    That''s right, smiling, Akali dropped the three off.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Crail after Tiara Rose.


    Keith moved out to win his position.


    Aquasteed also moved alone to become king of the starry sky.


    "First, find a form of blessing and pour your own power into it..."


    Everything is my first experience, and the confusion is enormous. Besides, the Keiths are not new to this position. Aquasteed is at an overwhelming disadvantage because he has experienced it in the past.


    First came the Aquasteed, a hill in a place where the royal castle can be seen. Various flowers are coloured every season and have become popular as a tourist attraction.


    Is it because the sky fairies who are blessing Aquasteed are providing support that the wind of the night blowing through the saha strokes my cheeks?


    "Marine Forest position, or"


    They''re just saying it''s a big country, and the territory of Marine Forest is huge. Its size extends to about 7 million km2. If you compare it to Earth, is it somewhere slightly smaller than Australia......


    In that territory, vertical and horizontal lines are placed and divided into squares of mass. The number of lines is ten each.


    Though divided territory, it makes no difference in vast numbers.


    "If we don''t do it efficiently, it''s tough."


    The winning condition for Aquasteed to become King of the Starry Skies is to acquire more self-defense than Ferres has in the realm today. That shows me that I am superior to Ferres as king.


    Okay, shall we move?


    The moment Aquasteed thought so, Marine Forest''s atmosphere swayed. And what overflowed and felt was the clearing up of the power of the forest.


    - Master Keith, you got the position!


    "We need to find the fairy blessing soon too..."


    Blessings take the same form as naturally existing ones.


    It is a flower, a nut, a coral, a leaf of a falling tree. To find it, you need to love and be loved by fairies.


    And one way to do that is to ask the fairy to tell you directly what it is.


    Aquasteed looked around and found three sky fairies shaking around. And soon, he asks where the fairies bless.


    "I want you to tell me where the blessing here is"


    "Aqua!"


    ''Blessings,'' what shall I do? Is that it? That''s it! Do you want me to tell you? ''


    The fairies seemed to have a good grasp of the place to bless, and start consulting with Aquasteed as to whether it was something I could teach them.


    "If you need any consideration, let''s get it ready. So I want you to tell me."


    Killan and his eyes shone as Aquasteed offered to help the fairies.


    "Consideration! Then help me take care of the trees now!"


    "Care?"


    Soon there will be a bunch of sky fairies gathered together to take Aquasteed to the little woods beneath the hills. As Aquasteed observed the fairies wondering what the hell they were going to do, a big wind blew up.


    "...... Huh!?"


    "Hi-ha!"


    Tree leaves fluttered around the shaggy fairies saying wow wow. Care was apparently to let the wind take the leaves of a tree that had fallen out.


    Although the leaves you drop are often left intact on the ground, he says he will help you make them if the animal asks for a bed.


    "Was the fairy in the sky doing this too..."


    ''You didn''t know. This is how fairies always look at Marine Forest.''


    The fairies laugh that there are times when they do blow strong winds on mischief, but most of them have some purpose. Aquasteed, who did not know about it, is pleased to find out about a new side of the fairy.


    "Thank you for knowing us."


    When the fairy laughs as if to haunt her, a single leaf falls flickering high in the sky with strong winds. It slowly circled and was on the palm of Aquasteed''s offered hand.


    "This is..."


    "Blessings from us."


    "I''m not trying."


    "Thank you, thank you"


    The fairies waved at Aquasteed and flew away into the sky somewhere.


    However, I am relieved to be able to somehow obtain the blessings of the fairies in this land. Flow your magic into the Blessed Leaves and this will be Aquasteed''s position.


    - It''s comforting to have the fairies work with you.


    "Above all, I am delighted to be able to bless this land with the fairies"


    Aquasteed slowly sheds his magic into the leaves of the tree. Although it looked normal, as it shed its magic, the leaves changed color to a transparent water color.


    The magic of Aquasteed, which grew up blessed from a young age by the fairies and crails of the sky, is a colour of the sky that is very clear and, when coloured, transparent.


    Absorbed of magic, the leaves gleam and drift loosely into the air.


    The state will remain this way until the decision is made to win or lose the Fairy King''s position. When it is finished, it will feed Marine Forest, blending into the earth.


    "All right, next. Just next door is forest territory, so can we pinch it further from the opposite..."


    In doing so, the position Keith obtained involves the position of Aquasteed, sandwiched by the position of Aquasteed.


    We used the transfer to move the location to get to the operation.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Aquasteed has moved north.


    Far ahead of the royal castle, this is a place where we don''t usually come and where we don''t have much human hands. Because of the mines, there are many forest fairies living there.


    There are not many tall trees and some are mainly grasshoppers.


    There are few plants growing in the mine, so the rocks remain exposed to the protrusion. Being surrounded by mines, it''s hard to get here on foot.


    "You have a lot of resources here."


    If I can, I would like to develop my country here without getting my hands on it.


    ''Wow, there are people here!


    "Are you... the fairies in the woods? I didn''t think you''d usually show up, but did you often live in these depths"


    ''Yeah. Because I want to take care of the woods, I may often live where there are no humans!


    The fairies in the woods welcomed Aquasteed, laughing at him.


    "I came here looking for the fairies'' blessings. What do you do here all the time?


    I''m always looking for gems. Over here. ''


    "The kings make rings from the gems they collect!"


    - The ingredients for the ring?


    Speaking of which, I don''t think the King of Starry Skies ring that Aquasteed gave to the Creation Tiara Rose did have all the ingredients in place.


    I never thought the gems the fairies were collecting elsewhere were the ingredients for that.


    When Aquasteed entered the mine with the forest fairy, it had become a one-sided gemstone mining site. Forest fairies collect gems and brush them until they glow with plant leaves.


    Although it''s a little bit of a passage for Aquasteed, who is a human being, there won''t be any problems with the little fairies.


    "This is... amazing"


    It''s in the mine, but it''s not dark at all with the brilliance of the jewels. Rather, I think it''s bright and dazzling enough.


    A fairy who picks gems gives it to Aquasteed.


    "Is this a lapis lazuli? The deep blue is so beautiful."


    "Bring it, follow me ~"


    The Fairy of the Forest moves through the mine, so does Aquasteed. of... the aisle narrowed and the ceiling became so low that I had to walk crouched.


    If we narrow it down any further, we won''t be able to move on, and we''re in a hurry.


    "Forest Fairy, how far the hell are you going?


    "We''ve arrived!"


    Grrr! and the tip of the forest fairy spreading her hands out was a little cavity and water gushing. It was the fairy of the sea who put her face down with the sound of water.


    "I brought you a new gem."


    "Okay, I''ll take it"


    In the fountain were a few sea fairies.


    He plays with the water to feel good, or he tries so hard to sharpen the gems with the water pressure of the water. I didn''t think the two kinds of fairies had a cooperative system here.


    - I''ve always lived in a country, but there''s still so much I don''t know.


    "Should I give you this gem?


    "Yes, please."


    When Aquasteed offered him the lapis lazuli he had, the sea fairy happily received it. And then, throwing it gently, Pooh scrapes up its surface wrapped in water while it floats in the universe.


    The fairies of the woods collected and polished the jewels and the finishing touches were made by the fairies of the sea.


    The beautifully cut lapis lazuli fell straight into the fountain with Po.


    "! This fountain..."


    Beautiful, isn''t it?


    The water was not very deep, so I could see immediately what was going on at the bottom. Beneath the clear water are so many gems that they cannot be counted.


    The waters shine in seven colors with rubies, sapphires, emeralds and a variety of gemstones. To a very mysterious sight, Aquasteed can only breathe.


    And the fountain where the jewels sank, he said, would be the ingredient for the kings to create something.


    "The ring I created, you were getting ingredients from here, too. Thank you, Fairy of the Forest, Fairy of the Sea. I could create something wonderful and give it to Tiara."


    "Then, good."


    "When Tiara is happy, I''m happy ~"


    The fairy of the forest laughed happily, and the fairy of the sea removed one gem from the bottom of the fountain.


    "I was happy, I''ll give it to you"


    "Is this a blessing... Thank you, make a good country and show it"


    "Yeah."


    Aquasteed won a second position and Keith''s position in time will also be his own. Now there are three positions Aquasteed got.

 86 11. Positioning the Kings: Part II

    From the power of the starry sky, which is too powerful, we may be able to save Aquasteed and Ferres. Tiara Rose, who knew that, rushed to the best of her ability for that purpose...


    "Here, Tiara Rose! Wait!!"


    "Don''t come after me, Master Claire!


    Tiara Rose and Crail run all the way down the crystal corridor.


    But right now, you can''t stop here. There''s only three hours left to put the ring together. I have some hands on explaining the situation to Claire, but now I''ve wasted that time.


    The way Tiara Rose unites the Fairy King''s ring needs to be wrapped and recreated with her own magic once and for all. That''s fine in itself, but the problem is the place.


    Is it because it''s still a maiden game event? They have a sacred place called Between Prayers, and it has to be there.


    I don''t know how far they are. Yeah, maybe it''s not the main road.


    That''s why Tiara Rose is in a hurry. Incidentally, the places made of this crystal are no longer able to travel with each other by transfer.


    For this reason, it is impossible to shortcut the distance even if you ask Crail to do so.


    "The ring of the Fairy King in the Sky is what I gave Aquasteed. I can''t believe I used that on my own and forced myself to take up positions..."


    Now there''s no point in giving your ring to Aquasteed, is there, Claire?


    "After all, Master Crail knows everything..."


    Claire finally caught up with Tiara Rose running out of breath haha. I held back the speed of walking, but I don''t stop.


    Claire sighs when she sees Tiara Rose looking like that.


    "I don''t know everything. Especially the Tiararose and Olivia Ariadel think they are strange beings. How do you have the information that only we know?


    "Oh, that''s... eh"


    "Even now, I don''t even know where Tiara Rose is headed."


    Some regrettable claire voice reaches Tiara Rose.


    - Where even the Fairy King doesn''t know it exists?


    Thinking about it, Tiara Rose thinks it''s probably the most important positioning ever. And it would be the place where Isira, the sequel heroine, should go, not herself the villain warrant.


    "... Master Aqua said he would be king. If Aqua is going to lead Marine Forest, I want to support it next door."


    "You say the place you''re on your way now needs it for that?


    "Yes, I will show you the support of Master Aqua, His Highness Ferres, and Master Lilia. That is the will of the Villain Warrant Lady!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Hearing Tiara Rose''s strong will, Claire replies "Yes".


    "Really, Tiara Rose is a strong girl."


    "Because Master Aqua will be here.... I have been told by my former fianc¨¦e, who was the Crown Prince in my country, that I am in exile from the country. That''s when Aqua supported me."


    - So now I support Master Aqua.


    Whatever fits, I''ve been thinking about being on Aquasteed''s side ever since.


    "Damn, you''re no match for both of us."


    "... Huh?


    "I wish I could have walked with Pearl, too"


    The lonely side of Claire walking side by side catches my eye.


    Pearl blessed Tiara Rose and Aquasteed and fell asleep for a long time. Still, it should be noted that Claire is often in Pearl''s Palace, not his own temple.


    - But Master Pearl should like it about Master Crail.


    Tiara Rose thinks we''ll be happier than ourselves if we wake up, although it''s very long before Pearl wakes up.


    And then the question arises whether Claire can stay with herself like this.


    "Dear Claire, don''t you have to be in the fairy king''s position to take part?


    Perhaps Aquasteed and Keith are working on the position.


    Hear that word, and Claire stops. With that, Tiara Rose accidentally stopped on her feet, too. When I saw Claire behind me a few steps, she had a blown out grin somewhere.


    "Right, let''s decide to join the war, too. ¡­ Tiara Rose, if, if, you can no longer stand the immense power, you should pour it in"


    "Where do you mean pour it in?


    "That''s it for the tip. I can''t tell you the answer."


    ¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose honestly listens to Claire''s advice, which I don''t think is important. So far, though I don''t have the enormous power I can''t stand......


    Maybe I get anxious that something will happen to my body.


    "See you later, then"


    "Yes."


    Dropping off Claire moving to the ground, Tiara Rose began to take the road back again.


    Although it was a crystal hallway that I didn''t know how far it would go, the blue door shows in my sight. Tiara Rose relieves herself when she finally seems to be able to move on.


    Don''t tell me it was physically demanding to keep walking on the same path the whole time.


    "Well, if this was between prayers, it would be perfect... Huh?


    At the end of the door, it was a quiet sea palace.


    The floor was soaked with about a few centimetres of sea water, at the centre of which was a sleeping pearl. The sleeping area on the water makes me feel strange somewhere, but it wasn''t if I cared about that now.


    "How did you end up in Lady Pearl''s Palace...?


    Go to the center of the large room and take a peek into the bedroom.


    There, Pearl, the fairy king of the sea, who looked the same as before, was in his sleep.


    Beautiful silver straight hair cut under shoulders. I don''t have the hair accessories I always decorated, but that''s all the glossy hair looks good. The relaxed evening outfit is tailored in brightly colored kimonos.


    "Looks like he''s slowly asleep"


    Tiara Rose hasn''t seen Pearl since she got her blessing. Though I''ve used up all my magic, there''s nothing like dying. I knew that, but I was very relieved to see him safe this way.


    "But how did you get out here? I want to go to prayer - eh!?"


    Could it be connected from here? The moment Tiara Rose tried to look around the room with that in mind, enormous power poured more and more into Tiara Rose.


    He can no longer stand on a sudden shock and Tiara Rose kneels on the spot. The sea water wets my knees, but I can''t afford to stand for that.


    "Ha, ha... eh"


    - It''s painful.


    Is this the enormous power that Claire was talking about earlier? I don''t know why, but it''s painful, and unconsciously, a large grain of tears falls from Tiara Rose''s eyes.


    What do I do, what do I do?


    ¨D¨D¨D¨D¡­¡­


    - If you can''t stand the enormous power anymore, you should pour it in.


    "Let this power pour in... Huh?


    To what?


    No, it''s settled.


    To Pearl, who has no magic and keeps sleeping.


    "So Master Claire said a hint."


    I guess I gave Pearl as punishment and I couldn''t help him save it. However, he taught me about the suffering Tiara Rose in terms of anticipation and advice.


    Tiara Rose receives blessings from Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea, making it easy to transfer that magic. If it weren''t for Tiara Rose, Claire wouldn''t have told you to pour in magic either.


    Going under the pearl as he crawled, Tiara Rose poured the magic into the pearl that was so overflowing.


    "Ha ha... Dear Pearl,"


    I pour the magic inside me into the pearl as much as this.


    "... cum"


    "Dear Pearl!


    Groaning and a small coughing voice.


    And soon, that bell-ringing voice uttered "Tiara Rose".


    "What are you doing... is this the Wonder Palace?"


    "Ha, ha..."


    "It''s worn out a lot."


    - Somehow, the force that seemed to overflow calmed down.


    And to relieve you, there''s a pearl right in front of Tiara Rose who was out of magic and in deep sleep. He briefly explained what had happened so far that he probably hadn''t swallowed up the circumstances.


    "While I''m asleep, it seems kind of tricky.... Not at all, man is no good at all."


    Pearl stands up when he takes the fan that was placed by his bedside and opens it badly. Then, making a loud noise, Pearl changed her outfit from a night outfit to a vibrant kimono dress.


    The multilayered fabric is made of deep red to enhance the silver of the pearl. Hair accessories embellished with strings and flowers tied their beautiful hair.


    "I don''t think I''m going to let the magic of the starry sky dwell on me."


    "Of the starry sky...?


    "Oh, didn''t you understand? Its immense power, which flows through its body, is the power of the overflowing Aquasteed. Daimyo, you''re taking a good position and you''re gaining strength."


    As a result, Aquasteed himself had a tough time controlling the force, and the force overflowing through the rings of the starry sky poured into Tiara Rose, Pearl says.


    "Totally. The next time I woke up, I thought you weren''t here anymore."


    When he wakes up a long time ago, Pearl takes one.


    "Then, while the wobble was asleep, he took the ring at will. And you''re trying to change that ring."


    "Yes. I apologize for receiving the ring when Pearl was asleep."


    Both Keith and Claire entrusted the ring to Tiara Rose and Aquasteed at their will. But Pearl is the only thing Tiara Rose brought in without permission to enter the hidden passage.


    I look at Tiara Rose, who bows her head in haste, and only tells her to hide her mouth with a fan and say "good".


    "Tiara Rose, let''s work together."


    "Huh? Is that okay?"


    "I don''t mind. I want to do something for Marine Forest."


    Pearl, who planned to stay asleep without magic, has not yet recovered the power of blessing either. Now I say we only get a minimum of territory and slowly be merciful of the sea of Marine Forest.


    "And the wobble is the fairy king of the third generation of the sea. Unlike Claire and Keith, our relationship with this country is shallow"


    "No. We know that Mr. Pearl has protected the sea. Don''t tell me you''re lonely like that"


    "... Hmm. Nothing. Let''s do what''s best for this country in our own way."


    What we need to do now is look between prayers.


    But like Claire, Pearl says he doesn''t know about its existence either.


    "This is a strange space. During the oath to take the Fairy King''s position, it leads to the kings'' realm. I don''t need that king''s ring for anything other than a king to get there."


    "Were you..."


    "Has anything else changed while the straw was asleep?


    "Ah..."


    To Pearl''s inquiry, Tiara Rose leans down.


    That means the king is down in sickness. Tell him that Lilliage is a disease he had previously suffered and that his medical condition has not yet recovered.


    The people and others have yet to be informed of the King''s fall.


    Hearing Tiara Rose''s words, Pearl nodded so much that it would be.


    "Oh, that''s why you woke up strawberries..."


    "Huh?"


    "What, you haven''t heard? Nevertheless, Flirting has never actually seen it either... saying that there are blooming flowers at the moment when the king of the starry sky takes power. That''s - huh!?"


    Pearl explains, the earth made a loud noise.


    "What''s going on!?"


    "Apparently, the battle for the position is over."


    "Already!? Yes, we must hurry and go between prayers"


    It had already been more than two and a half hours since the beginning by running down the crystal aisle and interacting with Pearl.


    Tiara Rose rushes out of the palace and returns to the crystal hallway. Pearl follows it, too, but we just have to run down the corridor where we don''t know the way and we just can''t replace it.


    If we don''t hurry, the time limit will come.


    Running out of breath, the door enters sight. Now it was time for the door to follow during prayer. Tiara Rose opened with the momentum as it stood.


    "Ha ha... this is where, during prayer... Dear Acari!?"


    "Dear Tiara! And even Pearl!!"


    Apparently he circled all the way around and came back to the room where the first pedestal he transferred was located. Tiara Rose snorted, and if she doesn''t make it in time, she will be struck.


    Acari was the opposite, tense to Pearl, the fairy king of the sea, who suddenly appeared.


    When I saw how Tiara Rose was doing, Akali said, "What''s wrong?" and lean his neck.


    "... I had to find myself between prayers, but I came back here"


    "During prayer...... are you talking about a space made with the power of holy prayer?


    "Huh? Oh yeah, that was...!?"


    - How could I have forgotten?


    Between prayers was the magic of the spatial system used by heroines. This is the magic that Tiara Rose used and everything in the game, even though it was orthodox magic in the game of "Lapis Lazuli''s Ring".


    I can''t believe I forgot, it''s a big mess.


    But only the heroine in the game can use that.


    I mean - it''s going to be two people, Akali and Isira.


    - So this event was originally a villain''s warrant and I couldn''t complete it without magic?


    I didn''t think I''d come here and feel sorry for my helplessness.


    When I regret it and hold my fist, the pearl voice of "Quickly Blame" echoes indoors.


    "Can a man named Acari make a time for prayer? Then make it quick and pray there."


    "Oh, but..."


    The question arises as to whether it does not have to be made on its own - but soon the acari used magic so I ran out of time to think about it.


    The space between prayers created by Akali must be very clear of air. I breathe very lightly and my body makes me feel like a feather.


    The space between the prayers made is located just in the part of the pedestal.


    Tiara Rose can get her hands on the pedestal and pray, just as she did when she swore.


    What you should do is unite the ring of the Fairy King of the Forest, the ring of the Fairy King of the Sky, and the ring of the Fairy King of the Sea.


    Slowly, the magic of Tiara Rose envelops the three rings. The force is very hot and will probably burn heavily if anything other than the person, Tiara Rose, touches it.


    Remove the ring from your fingers as you pray and wrap it around your palm. Put that hand on your forehead and pray for peace between the ring and Marine Forest.


    Praying with magic wrapped around the ring, would five minutes have passed?


    A pale light was emitted from Tiara Rose''s body, and there was one ring in his hand. We were able to bring the three rings together safely.


    The remaining time limit was only one minute.


    From the hands of Tiara Rose, a platinum ring carved with Tiara Rose flowers appeared. The fairy kings'' rings are united, a ring that allows you to control the power of the starry kings.


    Tiara Rose has drained most of her power, but there''s no way the Aquasteeds can control the power of the giant starry sky.


    "Beautiful, ring"


    "Dear Acari...... thank you"


    "Well, you can''t do that without me!


    "Thank you, Master Pearl"


    As the three of us rejoiced that the ring was ready, the atmosphere swayed and the Aquasteeds moved into this crystal room again.


    The Fairy King''s position is over.


    "Dear Aqua, Your Highness Ferres and Keith, and Master Claire!


    "I''m glad Tiara''s okay, too"


    Aquasteed, who saw this one, smiles happily, but his expression is somewhere more bitter than usual. I guess I''m not used to the magic of the King of the Starry Skies increasing in power just for my increased position.


    "So tell me what Tiara was up to -"


    "Aquasteed, you''d have something to do before that, wouldn''t you?


    "Your Highness Ferres... you did"


    Ferres laughs bitterly at Aquasteed trying to give Tiara Rose priority over anything else.


    Ferres looked around the room and told him he was "glad" to see Pearl.


    "You''re the fairy king of the sea, aren''t you? I''m Ferres. So glad to see you."


    "The wolf is Pearl, the fairy king of the third generation of the sea. I am honored to meet the First King."


    When the two, who were first meeting, exchanged greetings, the demonic squares painted on the floor glowed pale. This is the light of blessing the Aquasteeds have gained from taking up their positions.


    The light gathered on the pedestal and changed its appearance to a single crown.


    The crown, made of crystals, is designed with grass wood embellishments symbolizing the pedestal and coral accents. The more transparent it is at the top, the more empty it is.


    "This is the crown of the king of the starry sky. Come on, Tiara Rose."


    "... Yes"


    Tiara Rose, who has sworn in the start of the Fairy King''s positioning, has the role to give this crown to the winner.


    I haven''t heard where winning or losing is, but I believe in who wins from the beginning. There''s no way a man who loves this country and vows to be king won''t win.


    When Tiara Rose takes the crown into its hands, Keith or Crail moves to clear the way.


    Aquasteed was at the center of it.

 87 12. Fairy Star Festival

    Aquasteed, who showed his power, was recognized as king of the starry sky.


    Once Tiara Rose puts the crown on Aquasteed, the generational replacement of the King of the Starry Skies is complete. But once Aquasteed waited.


    "First, I have something to tell Tiara. I asked His Highness Ferres, it''s important."


    "... Yes"


    To the look of serious aquasteed, Tiara Rose corrects her posture. I feel the sound of my heart getting louder wondering what the hell is going on.


    - Because I forced the event to happen.


    Anxiety about what I would do if the harm was happening.


    However, Aquasteed''s conversation had nothing to do with Tiara Rose''s behavior.


    "When I become king of the starry sky, His Highness Ferres ceases to be king of the starry sky.... you know that, don''t you?


    Tiara Rose nods at the quiet Aquasteed voice.


    "That means His Highness Ferres and Lady Lilliage could die. Of course, I don''t know what would happen if I didn''t actually become king. This is about forecasting."


    "... you two, no"


    Breathtaking to what I''ve heard.


    Ferres and Lilliage, influenced by the power of the starry sky, have lived for so long. That''s off the concept of human beings, but I certainly don''t know what will happen when that power is gone.


    "It''s not about Tiara being sick. I have come to the conclusion that I will be king."


    "Dear Aqua... but I am"


    - I want everyone, to be happy.


    How good would it be if I could tell you that? With the three rings in one, the power of the King of the Starry Skies should be able to stabilize.


    But I can''t easily tell you that I''m okay in this room right now. I don''t know what this ring will look like, so I can''t say anything far-fetched.


    Ferres smiles gently at the overwhelming Tiara Rose.


    "It''s okay, it''s not about you being sick. We lived too long."


    "His Highness Ferres......"


    "... Tiara Rose, what about that ring?


    Crown Aquasteed without worrying. Though it was Ferres who tried to say so, he turned his attention to Tiara Rose''s unfamiliar ring.


    And at the same time, I realize that there is no ring for each fairy king that Tiara Rose had.


    "No way, I didn''t think Tiara Rose had that power"


    "Huh...?


    "It''s a very beautiful ring. But there''s still room in this ring to embrace magic."


    "Can you see that?


    Ferres looks at the ring and realizes that Tiara Rose has united the fairy king''s ring. At the same time, I can discern what state the ring is in.


    "It''s really like Tiara Rose," he says, laughing fun.


    "You made this ring with the desire to save me and Lilia, too. ¡­ let me respond to that thought just a little bit"


    ¡­¡­


    In Tiara Rose''s ear, Ferres sneaks up on her ear.


    I was surprised to hear what it was about and open my eyes. ''Cause I didn''t even think that was possible.


    I rebel in my head to remember what I heard and thank Ferres.


    "I''ll try my best. Never, never fail."


    "Yeah. I''m looking forward to it...... come on, it''s a crowning ceremony"


    The two of us are done talking and our gaze gathers in Aquasteed again.


    As Tiara Rose held the crown of the crystal, Aquasteed knelt down and quietly closed her golden eyes.


    - No way, I didn''t think I was born into a villain''s warrant to play such a big role.


    I''m sure Villain Lady doesn''t deserve the role of crowning to be king. Even this ring couldn''t have been prepared without clams.


    I have plenty of people to support me, although I may be a villain warrant lady who can''t do anything alone. That was a very happy thing and I recognised that this world was still warm.


    The crystal room is surrounded by silence, creating harsh air.


    "Aquasteed Marine Forest. The fairies of Marine Forest will bless you for ruling the land as King of the Starry Skies"


    "Let me show you not to be ashamed of that blessing"


    Tiara Rose slowly put the crystal crown on Aquasteed''s head.


    Then, from nowhere, the fairies show up and say ''Congratulations''. Soon the Ferres also applauded and celebrated the birth of the new king of the starry sky.


    "Congratulations, Master Aqua. I will also improve so that I can support you next door all the time."


    "It''s enough for Tiara to stay by my side, but I think I''ll be able to do anything if I get her to support me"


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Hear that powerful word and smile at each other.


    "Congratulations, Master Aqua! After all, it''s not the main - it''s not. The prince is amazing."


    "Oh, thank you. Miss Acari, thank you for coming from Lapis Lazuli."


    "You''re Tiara''s best friend."


    Acari laughs, more importantly if the heroine''s holy prayer has helped.


    "Congratulations, King of the Starry Skies"


    "You are my blessed human being, so I need you to do this."


    Claire and Pearl, who are both in line, also send Aquasteed a blessing.


    "Claire, Dear Pearl...... thank you. Mr. Pearl, thanks to you, is there no problem?


    "I''ve got plenty of magic from Tiara Rose, so there''s no problem."


    Pearl spreads his fan and hides his mouth. Actually, it''s a blackout, but it seems to be falling apart from the clail next door, smiling gently as he looks at the pearl.


    Finally, Keith came forward watching from behind. Put your arms together and breathe for the good of you.


    "Damn, I thought positioning was my win."


    "Master Keith..."


    "Not necessary."


    "Huh?"


    Keith, looking somewhere grumpy, whispered Aquasteed''s words.


    "Keith is fine."


    "! That''s..."


    "Are you willing to tell me twice?


    "... no. Thanks, Keith."


    Keith, the Fairy King of the Woods, who had not given a blessing besides Tiara Rose, acknowledged Aquasteed and allowed him to give a blessing and call his name.


    Aquasteed embraces Keith''s blessings as they pour in and feel their warmth.


    Keith lays his arm on Aquasteed''s shoulder and lowers his voice.


    "Tell you what, if you cry Tiara, you won''t understand."


    "Naturally."


    "Then fine."


    Hearing Aquasteed''s answer, Keith laughs satisfactorily.


    Tiara Rose, who was watching how it went, was somewhat rude to think that the two of them, who could never be said to be close, were considerable progress.


    But.


    - If these two put together, that''s what''s most powerful.


    There are rear support clails and pearls, and Aquasteed and Keith will be the ones to specialize. If you are this member, you have no enemies on your way.


    Oh, my God. When Tiara Rose thinks about it, Aquasteed and I look at each other and smile at the sieve.


    "Then, as the king of the starry sky, shall we serve first?"


    "Role, is it?


    "You saw it with Tiara a long time ago. It''s a fairy star festival announcement."


    Aquasteed explained to me that when there was a king in the starry sky, the king would let the stars descend.


    And at the same time, this festival has something to do with something Ferres taught me. Tiara Rose nodded forcefully because she loved the fairy star festival.


    Only the Festival of the Year, replaced by the King of the Starry Sky, shall be declared for initiation by the King of the Starry Sky and four of each Fairy King. Thereafter, the King of the Starry Skies will make a declaration of initiation.


    If the king of the starry sky were absent, the fairies would call upon the little stars at their discretion to perform the festival. Until now, Ferres was unable to make a declaration of initiation, so the fairies worked hard for me.


    "Well, shall we watch over here?"


    "Yes."


    Ferres decides to take a tour, followed by an acari.


    Tiara Rose couldn''t do it either, so she decided to go to Ferres and Akali and watch the Aquasteeds side by side.


    Four people surround the pedestal: Aquasteed, Keith, Crail and Pearl.


    Place your hands on the pedestal and call the stars with your strength.


    I remember when I was still in the Lapis Lazuli kingdom and Tiara Rose feels nostalgic.


    At night, when I was in my room, Aquasteed came to visit me. And for my own sake, and let me do a fairy star festival.


    "I hereby declare the start of the Fairy Star Festival with the power of the King of the Starry Skies"


    "From the Fairy King of the Woods, bless the air with clarity"


    "From the Fairy King in the sky, pray that the stars can be seen high everywhere"


    "From the Fairy King of the Sea, the water and silence for how brilliant the stars are"


    Each powerful voice receives and the crystal pedestal shines.


    The light becomes a muscle, climbing through the ceiling and high above the marine forest. It will eventually reach the top of the sky and descend into the earth as a shower in the starry sky.


    The ceiling part of the room, which was made of crystals, became more transparent, reflecting the night sky of Marine Forest and showing the sights to the Tiara Roses.


    The fairy star festival, initiated by the Fairy King in the Starry Sky, is much more glittering than usual, showing off its power.


    "... you blossomed"


    "Huh?"


    Ferres'' voice reaches the ear of Tiara Rose, who was looking at the night sky on the ceiling.


    I don''t know what the hell bloomed, chasing Ferres'' gaze. Earlier I was staring, when I saw the pedestal of the crystal that had declared its beginning, a circle of flowers was blooming.


    That looks like a flower made of crystals, very transparent.


    Ferres gave me an explanation, wondering what the hell kind of flower it was.


    "Those flowers are illusory flowers that bloom only when a new king of the starry sky is born. And... it''s a miracle flower that cured Lilia''s illness."


    ¨D¨D


    "What, are those amazing flowers?!?"


    Tiara Rose takes her breath away and makes her tense that the acari is an awesome rare item.


    "Well, Master Aqua uses those flowers..."


    "Yeah. I was gonna help that kid. But I was so worried that Lilia and I might die."


    Now we can help the king who is still sick.


    Tiara Rose relieved by that fact, but it''s still too early to feel safe. From now on, we have to do one more thing to save Ferres and Lilliage.


    Celebrating the king''s birth, he picked the blooming flowers, and the Tiara Roses returned to the earth.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Returning to the earth, the circle that was above disappeared, and instead many stars were pouring down.


    It''s time for the morning to come, but the light of the stars shines without losing to the sun. No, should I say it looks like you''re dancing with the sun?


    Around the beginning square, too, people had gathered to know the beginning of the star festival.


    "Wow, what is the amount of this star! Double the usual, no... isn''t that even more amazing?


    "Such an amazing star festival, for the first time in my life"


    "Maybe there''s something good going on this year"


    Every voice I hear seems happy, and Aquasteed seems satisfied.


    "Tiara"


    "Dear Aqua...... you are so beautiful. I''m so happy to show you the star festival this way"


    Try to lean against the aquasteed that came next door and look up at the sky.


    "But you also feel a little lonely when you run out of the circle rings that have been shining all along. What was that?


    "Oh... if it''s that circle, it''s here"


    "Huh?"


    What Aquasteed showed was the crown on its head.


    "That''s who the circle is, was it?


    "Oh. I guess the result of my quest for a new king was that circle"


    "It was a new king''s urging, wasn''t it?"


    I hear that fact, and I laugh unexpectedly.


    The crown of crystals shining over Aquasteed''s head is very beautiful and remarkable, either because it reflects the light of the stars. The people around them also look at Aquasteed as they notice this one.


    "Exactly does this stand out..."


    "It''s a crystal crown. And I think Keith and the others are making us stand out."


    The main character of the sequel is dominated by the crowned Crown Prince. There''s no way a beautiful gathering of humans can be pictorially inconspicuous.


    Aquasteed takes the crown and tells Tiara Rose to "hold it".


    "Yeah, that just sounds horrible..."


    "This is what you can do."


    When placed in the hands of Tiara Rose, the crown disappeared.


    "What!? Gone!? What the hell am I..."


    "No, no, not that Tiara did anything. The crown is here."


    The one shown is the King of the Starry Skies ring that Aquasteed gave me. A crown of crystals had been added there as a silhouette line.


    I was very surprised because I didn''t think I could fuse with the ring. And at the same time, I''m relieved to know that I didn''t do something to the crown.


    Then let''s go back to the castle.


    "Yes!"


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed took their hands and all returned to the royal castle.

 88 13. Lady Villains Ring

    Returning to the royal castle, immediately before the sight of the king - the thunderbolt of Filine fell on Tiara Rose.


    "Dear Tiara Rose!! If you need to go out or anything, please report it to me. I was very, very worried..."


    "Sorry, Philine"


    "... do I not deserve to be beside Dear Tiara Rose?


    Tiara Rose shakes her head in a hurry to Philine, who just tells her to fire me if she doesn''t need to. I''ve been like sisters since I was young. I trust Filine more than anyone else.


    Hold Philine''s hand and apologize wholeheartedly.


    "It was something I couldn''t tell anyone. Of course, to Master Aqua. I''m sorry I bothered you, Philine. Still, I love Philine for scolding me like that."


    "Dear Tiara Rose......"


    After the two of us hugged each other for a long time, Tiara Rose explained the situation to Filine. And I can''t help but laugh at Philine in a hurry.


    "Oh, that''s what happened!? Get ready to see..."


    "No, you can keep it that way"


    "Yes, I did. If that''s what His Royal Highness Aquasteed says."


    While Tiara Rose was talking to Philine, arrangements were made for Elliot to be seen.


    Since there is no time to change into a dress, I have obtained permission in advance to keep the outfit intact. Akali remains horseback riding style.


    After seeing him, Tiara Rose asked Filine to prepare herself and Acari''s dress and went under the king.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Heading under the king were four: Tiara Rose, Aquasteed, Ferres and Acari, and a total of five of the liriages we had just joined.


    Keith and the others said they would make adjustments to their newly gained realm and went home.


    Sometimes it''s still early in the morning, and only one king is in the room. If it is daytime time, Lavina, the Queen, is much clearer.


    But now, I tell a maid nearby that Lavina should stay with me as soon as possible and let them go and call.


    "Aquasteed, and..."


    Said to be urgent in the morning, King Sotiris accepted a glimpse from his son, whose dress code also remained vague. And look at those gathered figures, and I wonder what the hell is about to start.


    My own son and righteous daughter will be fine.


    But Acari, the queen of Prince Hartnights of Lapislazuli and the user of holy prayer. And we have the first kings of this country.


    There is no one who sees this and thinks there is nothing.


    Besides, Aquasteed is sending Lavina to call as soon as possible, so here we go.


    Tiara Rose thanks the lady when she sees Sotiris wake her torso from her bedroom.


    "Good morning, Your Majesty. I''m sorry to see you like this."


    "No, I don''t mind. Something happened, and you came here? Lady Akali also said she came all the way from Lapis Lazuli, and I''m sorry for this outfit"


    Sotiris shakes his head and tells him nothing is wrong. On the contrary, enough to apologize to Akali for sleeping with the Guest.


    Akali is the one who doesn''t care about that.


    "It''s okay, king. I''m the one who worried about Tiara and didn''t touch her."


    I''ll tell you what, Akali, 90% curiosity, 10% worry about Tiara Rose.


    While we were talking like that, Lavina came over in a panic. The hair is not tied and the dress is simple. As Aquasteed put it, you must have rushed me.


    Look at the people who are aligned and immediately lower the maid.


    "What the hell is going on? So many in the morning..."


    "Mother, with the help of everyone, we have the medicine to cure your father''s illness."


    "Is it true!?"


    Listen to Aquasteed and Ravina roughs up her voice. And soon, when I don''t deserve what I say and do, I realize and breathe.


    "I''m sorry I messed up.... What is that medicine?


    "This is it."


    "Well, beautiful..."


    What Aquasteed took out was a piece of crystal flower, a petal. This is all we can do to cure Sotiris'' illness. The rest of the flowers are to be stored in the royal castle.


    This flower is blooming with blessings. For this reason, when magic is shed, the blessings gathered in the crystal become Shizukuishi, making it a cure for all diseases.


    Both Sotiris and Lavina wonder where the hell they got this stuff. But there are Aquasteeds and Tiara Roses who are blessed by the Fairy King in their rare presence with the power of holy prayer.


    No matter what miracle happens anymore, I don''t think it''s surprising.


    "Mother, shed magic on this. Then Shizukuishi, so let your father drink it."


    "Okay."


    I ask Lavina because the magic of the Tiara Roses is heterogeneous and enormous compared to normal humans. I left it to Ravina because it could affect Sotiris in some way.


    Immediately he receives the crystal petals, and Lavina pours and drinks the Shizuku into Sotiris. Then the warm light flooded the room and at a glance it was found that Sotiris'' complexion regained and recovered more and more redness.


    "Oh, oh... Dear Sotiris. Good, good..."


    "Don''t cry like that, Lavina"


    Sotiris gently strokes Lavina, who has cried out too much of her restored joy. The look of it is very smiling, but now are the Tiara Roses disturbing bugs?


    If the illness had healed, there would be no problem, so I left the two of them behind and gently followed the room without even saying hello.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    "Good for you, the king is well!


    "Yes, thank you for all your cooperation, Mr. Akali."


    When I got dressed and calmed down, Filine prepared me some tea and sweets. This solves everything! I can finally stretch my feathers - it''s still a little early.


    Acari is sloppy enough to sink into the couch, but there''s only one important thing left for Tiara Rose to do.


    "The case of His Highness Ferres and Master Lilliage has not yet been resolved."


    "Speaking of which, you said that Master Aqua might die because he became king"


    There are only two of us here now, Tiara Rose and Akali.


    Aquasteed was checking the necessary paperwork as soon as possible, and Ferres went with Lilliage to see the fairy star festival.


    I''m still fine now, but I don''t know what will happen.


    "I don''t want you two to be happy, but I want you to be alive."


    "I agree with that, but do you have a hand?


    "... I do. Because His Highness Ferres gave us a hint."


    I remember when you snuck me in the ear.


    "I''m going to make a ring too."


    "Oh dear Tiara!? That means Villain Lady''s Ring, maybe it''s kind of cool!


    "There is also my power in this ring. That way you can have my ring with the power of the Fairy King."


    Listening to Tiara Rose, Akali said, "You look invincible!," he says with pleasure.


    But then we''ll need a place to create the ring again, won''t we? and the acari lean their necks. If you need any help, I''ll take care of it, and Akali slaps you in the chest.


    "Thank you, Dear Acari. But I''m fine on my own this time. You can create it at night, so I''ll take a little nap."


    "Really? Then it would be bad to interrupt... and I guess I''ll play with Master Olivia"


    "I''m sure Master Olivia will be delighted."


    I''m sorry that Aquasteed only gives one person a temporary sleep even though he''s at work, but he can''t be snagged at the heart of it.


    Tiara Rose broke up with Akali and fell asleep for a moment.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    With the help of the stars coming down from the sky, you can create the Tiara Rose Ring.


    Yes, Ferres taught me. Tiara Rose came to the rooftop of the royal castle a little before the night date changed. The fairy star festival is still going on and very bright because there are stars that keep coming down.


    The rooftop to which Tiara Rose came is a place where only royalty or authorized human beings can enter. As a result, no one else has the luxury of singling out the starry sky.


    "The night breeze feels good..."


    Driven by the urge to fall asleep like this, but that just can''t be right.


    "Okay, let''s create a ring!


    The platinum ring with the Fairy King''s ring in one is still held by Tiara Rose.


    This will enable us to control the power of the King of the Starry Skies, but that is not enough. Even if we can control it, it doesn''t make sense that Ferres and the others are dead.


    I want everyone to be happy.


    At first there was a side that was floating on some of my favorite game characters, but now I love them as people.


    "The wish I can put in the ring is a happy lifetime"


    I mean, it''s a happy ending.


    "I will take the descending starry sky with this platinum ring that will be a great yuan..."


    Place a ring on the palm of your hand so that it is raised high in the sky. By doing so, the power of the Fairy King in this ring attracts the stars.


    Seeing what would happen, the star that was pouring into the night sky suddenly changed direction and started pouring Tiara Rose over it.


    "- Huh!!"


    Unexpectedly close your eyes and turn away from the force more than you thought. Big stars loom right in front of me, and there''s no way I can look at them that easily.


    Don''t bump into it!? and the cold sweat conveys it from the rushing emotions, but it ended in worry.


    The downpouring star was gently sucked into the platinum ring, slowly changing its shape before coming under Tiara Rose.


    - Surprised, I did.


    "Ha..."


    I accidentally lose my hips and sit on the spot.


    However, in Tiara Rose''s hands the platinum ring has increased its radiance. Apparently, he succeeded in acquiring the power of the stars, which is the cornerstone for creating and changing rings.


    And then, if you do the magic of Tiara Rose, it will be complete.


    The words of the pledge to create the ring are fine because I remember them properly. Say the same words when Aquasteed created the ring for me.


    "Stars watching the land of Marine Forest, I swear here in the name of Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest. Whether the flowing stars and the earth that supports the country perish, it is unlikely that the ring will lose its shine -"


    Then, the ring, which was platinum, changed color to honey pink. Tiara Rose has the same hair color, shiny and glossy.


    "Oh wow, you really made my ring"


    That''s an inspiring word.


    Staring at the ring, the door that leads to the rooftop and indoors opens with a sound. What came was a slightly disturbed breathing aquasteed. I can see you rushed here in a hurry.


    "Tiara......"


    "Dear Aqua?


    "Why are you so upset..."


    Tiara Rose snaps her neck when she sees Aquasteed dripping.


    "What''s wrong with you? Or was Aqua asleep?"


    "I took about an hour off, so I don''t have a problem. ¡­ downstairs, there''s a fuss that the stars are pouring down on the royal castle"


    "What!"


    I hear Aquasteed''s words and my shoulders bounce.


    Surely that was something compelling. From a distance, the meteorite hit the royal castle! You won''t have a choice if they think so.


    "I''m sorry, Master Aqua. It''s okay."


    "Sounds like it."


    Aquasteed, in relief, lowered his back next to Tiara Rose and said, "What are you doing here?" Ask.


    And that gaze was poured into the ring of Tiara Rose''s honey pink... villain warrant lady.


    "Well, I wanted to give Aqua a ring."


    "To me?


    "That''s right. This ring made me wish for happiness."


    Laughing like a scuffle, Tiara Rose explains from the beginning.


    How did you bring up the King of the Sky Fairies ring with Aquasteed, what is this ring made of and what effect does it have, etc.


    "This ring can control and stabilize the power of the starry sky. And with my help, I can connect with my loved ones."


    "Connection?"


    "Yes."


    Tiara Rose''s created Villain Warrant Lady ring is a ring that creates a connection with the owner''s loved ones.


    For this reason, the power of Ferres and Lilliage can also be controlled to some extent through the ring of the Villain Warrant Lady.


    In other words, it will be possible to give Ferres and Lilliage the blessing of Aquasteed, the king of the starry sky, through the ring.


    "Well, then surely there is no need for His Royal Highness Ferres and Master Lilliage to die under the influence of a generation change"


    "Yes, I think it would mean Aqua''s family... or something like that"


    "Thank you, Tiara. You''re gonna put it on, aren''t you?


    I looked at the aquasteed I offered my left hand, and of course I nodded.


    All this time, I missed that I was the only one wearing a ring to my left hand pharmacopoeia. Like a wedding ring, I thought many times that if the two of us could wear the ring one day...


    - It''s like a second wedding.


    Overhead, the stars are pouring down to bless.


    A completely different situation than when we saw it together, before we were still officially engaged. But both, the heart sounds like an early bell as if it were the culmination.


    Slowly put the ring on Aquasteed''s pharmacopoeia and gently stroke its hand. He''s bigger around one than Tiara Rose, and he''s a gentle hand that always protects him.


    "Tiara"


    "Dear Aqua, Mmm..."


    Be gentle with your mouth, close your eyes and accept.


    Repeating the kiss several times to snuggle, Aquasteed holds Tiara Rose and lets her sit on her lap.


    Keep kissing deeper and indulge in Tiara Rose.


    "... Ha, ha."


    "Mmm...... It looks like we''re monopolizing each other''s rings."


    "Aqua-sama already."


    But that''s what Tiara Rose thought too.


    Aquasteed looks at the ring that got stuck in his left hand pharmacopoeia and smiles satisfactorily.


    "Tiara''s Ring You Created For Me"


    "Again, I''m so embarrassed..."


    "She''s shy. Tiara''s cute, too"


    "Already, um..."


    That being said, Aquasteed once again - kissed Tiara Rose gently under the sky descending from the starry sky.

 89 14. Coronation

    As soon as the fairy star festival came to an end, it had been notified to the people by the country.


    It was sudden, but everyone embraced it and showed a grand exuberance of joy that it was the birth of a new marine forest.


    That was that Aquasteed Marine Forest would reign king.


    "Oh, I''m already expanding a lot too fast to keep up!


    Olivia roughs up her voice in one of the rooms Tiara Rose has for the tea party.


    Happiness will be loosely beyond the highest point because even though I''m just happy to reincarnate into my favorite game, I can see the moment when my favorite character will reign.


    Now in this room are Tiara Rose and Acari.


    The season is already showing a shift in autumn, but the forest of Marine Forest is very beautiful in colour with red leaves.


    Aquasteed''s reign was decided, and he came from Lapis Lazuli for the crowning ceremony. Halt Knights and Sirius are here with us, but now we''re in a separate room talking to the Aquasteeds.


    "No - at first I thought what would happen, but you can handle it!


    "Dear Akali, it''s too easy..."


    Clams laughing while eating cookies calm down like a settling case.


    "But I have to go home to Lapis Lazuli after the crowning ceremony. I miss you both so much!


    "They''re royalties from different countries."


    "That''s right. I can''t come easy to see you, and royalty is tough."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at what she says to you for running off on a horse.


    Looking at those two, Olivia does snort desperately. We still have a lot of places to go in Marine Forest and Lapis Lazuli. "You''re still the second son of the Count family!" Olivia nodded again.


    "Master Olivia is less than ideal ~! How about I attack the character?


    "If you do that, you''ll bleed to death with a nosebleed!


    Acari tells him with a laugh, but Olivia shakes her head at high speed.


    I thought it would be fun to have a future with offensive characters, but it seems the hurdles are too high for Olivia. I said clearly that the target of the attack was something I loved.


    Looking at the clock, it''s almost time for Aquasteed''s crowning ceremony to begin.


    Tiara Rose stands up and speaks to both of them.


    "Shall we move?"


    "Yeah, what you have to burn His Highness Aquasteed in these eyes. I''m also asking Levy for a sketch, so I''ll give it to you later."


    "I want that too!!"


    "Me too!!"


    To Olivia''s words, Akali lifts her hand with momentum. Of course, Tiara Rose raises her hand with a loss. No one went into the fact that Levi could even paint anymore.


    That butler is too versatile. I guess what Olivia wants me to try to accomplish, no matter what the difficulties.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Soon, there will be a crowning ceremony.


    There are three people in this room, Aquasteed, Sotiris and Lavina. Sotiris spoke to his son, who looked somewhere tense.


    "Sorry for the sudden reign, Aquasteed"


    "No."


    Sotiris has always wondered what would be best for Marine Forest. But when I heard about it, I decided to give up my throne.


    Sotiris thinks that all the impossible is happening around Aquasteed.


    Interaction with the first king you can''t possibly see or blessings from all fairy kings. And more importantly, the presence of mysterious flowers that cured Sotiris'' illness.


    Whatever happens, it''s not something ordinary people should be able to do.


    And the thought has always been in Sotiris. But we couldn''t make a young aquasteed king, and we watched the people, the fairies, the reactions of other countries, and when.


    "I''ve always thought you deserved a king. And it still seemed true."


    "I''m still immature. ¡­ but I want to be a fine king not to be ashamed of what you thought or the feelings of the fairy kings who blessed me"


    I guess the tension eased up a little bit.


    Aquasteed''s expression calms down and gives him room to smile.


    Rising from the chair where he was sitting, Aquasteed looked at the "It''s Time" clock.


    "Right. I''m so proud of my son."


    "Thank you. Oh, yeah. I was going to invite my mother out for tea with Tiara, but I regret not being able to take that time in a row of rushing things."


    "No, you can always do that."


    With Tiara Rose, even if something happens, it''s something that goes in a very good direction... and Aquasteed smiles.


    I could immediately imagine that Lavina, too, would have been when Sotiris was down sick. A brilliant son pays proper attention to others, even if he does his best about himself.


    The sound of a knock echoed in the room, a voice that came from across the door to call for time. When prompted to enter immediately, Elliot looked nervous somewhere.


    Apparently, Elliot nearby is more nervous than Aquasteed, the lead actor. Seeing that makes me laugh unexpectedly.


    "You''re more nervous. What are you gonna do?"


    "No, I can''t believe you''re not nervous here... like Aquasteed"


    Elliot told me that Sotiris and Lavina were laughing with Aquasteed, too.


    The setting sun dyes the city of Marine Forest in orange.


    Even in the whole city today, you can see a number of fairies. That is because it is an important day when the King of the Starry Skies, who has shown strength to himself, will also reign as King of Marine Forest.


    It may be since Marine Forest was founded that the distance between humans and fairies is so close.


    The place where Aquasteed''s crowning ceremony will take place is the tower facing the square where he has given a speech before. Construction has been carried out and the crowning ceremony has been transformed into a wide construction so that it can be carried out in a connected manner.


    As you can see more of Aquasteed, the balcony is laid like a staircase and stage with a crimson carpet. Next to it, a crown for Aquasteed is available.


    "Admission of His Highness Aquasteed Marine Forest!


    When told so, it boiled more as the people rocked the atmosphere. He preaches words of celebration to his mouth and tries to firmly reflect Aquasteed''s appearance in his eyes.


    Aquasteed enters through the entrance and exit under the stairs and slowly walks towards the stage.


    The spine stretches with a pin, pulling the jaw, beautiful golden eyes looking straight ahead without a bump. Tailored with a white tone, the outfit features gold and dark blue embroidery to highlight the smooth aqua steed.


    Exactly what the king deserves.


    Climbing down the stairs, Aquasteed kneels.


    "Aquasteed Marine Forest. Blessed be this nation that you will build."


    That''s what they told me, and the crown was put on Aquasteed''s head.


    Moment after moment, a louder applause wraps up Marine Forest. All around the overflowing applause, he said, "Long live His Majesty Aquasteed!," I hear you calling Aquasteed over and over again.


    Aquasteed waved at the people and smiled.


    "Good, Master Aqua"


    "Thanks to Tiara Rose for her hard work, right?


    "With the help of His Highness Ferres and Lilia."


    Sitting in the reserved seat, Tiara Rose watched Ferres, Lilliage and the crowning ceremony. Aquasteed, with only hope, we have a seat for Ferres on the royal side.


    I don''t know who it is when I see it from other nobles and royalties in other countries, but I don''t intend to publish the existence of Ferres in the future. Perhaps you''ll settle for the perception that Aquasteed and Tiara Rose are dear friends.


    ''Oh, I''m impressed. Very nice crowning ceremony, Ferres, Tiara''


    "It''s also very nice that the fairies are sending flowers down from the sky"


    Lilliage is embraced by Ferres and weeps over his lap. I can''t watch it without tears because it''s an Aquasteed crowning ceremony just like mine.


    Ferres wipes that with a handkerchief, but he laughs bitterly, not likely enough, no matter how many pieces he prepares.


    The guest seats are full of fairy kings, and many royalty members from all countries are invited to take their seats.


    A crowning ceremony so magnificent and extravagant, I''m sure, has never happened before. - No, what a blessed king to all fairy kings has been since the first generation.


    Aquasteed''s crowning ceremony will always be told like a story -.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    The crowning ceremony was successfully concluded, with a dinner party in the evening that brought guests from all over the country.


    The Lapis Lazuli kingdom, which I had thus been gracious, talked about going to flourish in the future to exchange studies, etc., and in the future I would like to see the development of Marine Forest more.


    And the lead came back to the room looking tired.


    I just finished bathing, so I''ve already put my sleeves through the night clothes. Tiara Rose was in her bedroom and reading, so Aquasteed walked in there.


    "Welcome back, Master Aqua"


    "I''m home."


    Wipe your still slightly wet aquasteed hair with a towel and caution, "You''ll catch a cold," he said.


    I really felt like getting Tiara Rose to spoil me this way...... I just can''t say. Aquasteed wants to be a good looking man in front of his wife forever.


    After wiping her hair clean, Tiara Rose takes several deep breaths to correct her posture.


    Aquasteed becomes somewhat anxious about what he intends to do this time around. but that seemed worrying.


    "Congratulations on your reign... Aqua"


    "Thank you, Tiara. I knew you''d like to call me that."


    I wanted to call you Aquasteed''s name, but I''m still unfamiliar with it, so I was ready to calm down.


    Its behavior is adorable and Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose all the time. Flipping around like that, Tiara Rose pushed down the sleeping aquasteed.


    "Yikes! If I pull it all of a sudden, it won''t hurt!


    "It''s okay, ''cause I''m working out"


    "Aqua..."


    Aquasteed gently lowers his mouth on his forehead, eyes, cheeks.


    "That...... is embarrassing, but I like to call it Aqua. I''m a king, but when I''m calling you Aqua... I feel like I''m alone, and I''m glad."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Ah, aqua?


    Aquasteed sighed loudly when he saw Tiara Rose, who modestly told him.


    I get anxious to see how that goes and say something that bothers me. I should have been more tired than usual today with crowning ceremonies and dinner parties with guests.


    I rushed to say something of an apology - that''s what I thought, but that didn''t come true because of Aquasteed''s actions.


    I cuddle and hug about Tiara Rose, and now I push Tiara Rose down and sew both of those hands onto the sheet.


    "Oh no more, why does Tiara say such a cute thing... I won''t give you a hand or two?


    "What...!


    Chu, and.


    Aquasteed''s lips touch his neck muscles, marking him red.


    "Aqua, um..."


    "No, I won''t listen to Tiara."


    Why don''t you mouth it again and get some rest? He sealed Tiara Rose''s words.

 90 15. Yakuso

    "So maybe the fairy can come to Lapis Lazuli too when the exchange study abroad system is in place!?"


    "It''s just possible, you don''t know unless you actually go"


    Today is a meeting with our neighbor Lapis Lazuli.


    Aquasteed''s schedule is stuck in the gutter, even though he said he only opened it overnight from the crowning ceremony.


    From Marine Forest, two Tiara Roses and Aquasteed.


    Three people are present: Acari, Haltnites and Sirius. It is a peaceful atmosphere that is not too different from normal, although it is a meal because it is a friendly face.


    The topic is about the exchange study abroad system.


    Aquasteed also has experience studying in Lapis Lazuli, and he wants us to learn and be active in different things, not just in his own country, but also in other countries.


    And the one who has eaten most of that story is Lapis Lazuli''s right to inherit the throne, Sirius, Haltnites'' brother.


    "I came to His Highness Aquasteed''s crowning ceremony and saw the fairies for the first time. It conveyed the feeling that she was so adorable and loved this country again"


    "Thank you"


    To Sirius''s bouncing voice, Aquasteed continues his words with a smile.


    "That said, it''s difficult right away. In keeping with my reign, many fairies are now coming to the city. Some fairies will get along with the people."


    We''re talking about the possibility that those fairies might follow the people who study abroad.


    Of course, that is adapted for adults, but children tend to be more liked by the fairies in one way or another. For this reason, he concluded that the chances of fairies going to another country were most likely to follow the exchange study.


    Tiara Rose would also like to show her parents the fairies.


    I really wish it would come true one day, but it can actually be the quickest way for Tiara Rose to invite the fairies to come with me.


    "Sister Tiara is liked by a lot of fairies, isn''t she? I also want to come to Marine Forest to exchange studies and get along with a lot of fairies"


    "Well, does Prince Sirius come here to study abroad?


    "Of course! Yesterday, my brother accepted me."


    Sirius grinned and sees some tired Halt Knights.


    "I allowed it.... Well, it''s a good way to deepen your friendship with Marine Forest."


    "Was I? Then let''s have a welcome party when Prince Sirius arrives. Invite the fairies too."


    "Is that true? It''s a promise, Sister Tiara."


    I look at Tiara Rose and Sirius, who talk fun, and say, "Nice!" and the acari come on board.


    "Dear Acari, this is when Prince Sirius studied abroad, isn''t it?


    "Of course I know that, but isn''t that fun? I think I''ll study abroad too..."


    "What are you talking about, already"


    There''s something hard to tell if Akali is serious or joking, but he''s basically serious about everything. If we don''t stop here exactly, they''ll really come to study abroad.


    "Don''t, don''t stay in Lapis Lazuli properly. I''m coming to see you, too."


    "Is that true? Then I''ll be looking forward to it. Let''s invite Olivia, too."


    Though it was a slightly fuzzy acari, I hear Tiara Rose''s words and shine her expression.


    Even after this, Tiara Rose and Akali are going to have a tea party with Olivia. Aquasteed saw Tiara Rose, saying you were three really close people.


    The meeting between Marine Forest and Lapis Lazuli ended up mainly talking about studying abroad.


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Today''s Tea Party is a ''Tea Party in the Woods'' held in the gardens of Tiara Rose.


    I can do it with great ease for three people: Tiara Rose, Acari and Olivia. Since Filine and Levi will serve, Tiara Rose and the others are familiar with their preferences and very cozy.


    Philine''s brewed tea is very tasty, and these days Olivia asks Philine for tea, and Levy is burning in a sense of confrontation.


    "Olivia, I''ll make you some tea today. Dear Filine, please prepare the sweets"


    "... Yes, sir."


    For some reason Levi starts partitioning the field, and Philine snorts and prepares the treat.


    Levi seemed to brew tea for Olivia and prepared a teapot to set the tea leaves.


    "We did some research to help Olivia drink it deliciously. The water uses spring water from the mountains inhabited by the Fairy King and warms the teacup with light boiling water. And also pour hot water into the teapot and steam it with the smell of tea leaves..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Filine prepared the treat and then left the room after seeing Levi with cold eyes. I''m going to hear her heart say she doesn''t want to be.


    Levy also finished brewing tea safely, graciously before exiting.


    "As always, Deacon Olivia is hilarious!


    "You burn your sense of confrontation right away, Levi. I hate to lose."


    Acari drank tea and said, "Yummy!," he grinned.


    "But this tea is really delicious."


    Take a sip, Tiara Rose also cheeks loose in deliciousness.


    "If it was Japan, Levi would be a hottie. He''s handsome, and all the way? But I can do my job and I''m tall."


    No complaints, Akali says.


    I do agree with Tiara Rose and Olivia. Because of his identity in this world, there must be many hopes and loves that no matter how high Levi''s butler skills are, won''t come true.


    Different identities of love are rarely recognized in this world. Civilians are sometimes seen in a form like concubines if they are high on the male side, but vice versa is very difficult.


    "Identity...... To rule the country, I think it is necessary. But it''s nice to have a country where anyone can be free one day."


    "That''s right."


    Olivia gavels at Tiara Rose''s words, and the acari is also nodding.


    "You''ve been kind of a heavy topic. I wanted to ask Olivia about the offensive book."


    "Oh, you read it to me when you went to the villa"


    "Oh, strategy book!? What is it, it!


    The thing that''s eaten me the most is the acari.


    Tiara Rose tells Olivia that when she went to her villa, she discovered a handwritten offensive book written by Olivia. Then, immediately, "I want ~!" cries Akali.


    "I have to book it, it is! And make it a family heirloom!


    "I can''t do that. It also contains all the royal castle plans and hidden passageways."


    "Ah... you''re Olivia''s memory creature."


    I guess you thought it was a fun book with a profile to attack. Akali hears the intensity of the content, and this guy shows vigilance in Olivia''s memory when it sucks.


    Nevertheless, there is nothing else dangerous. It''s just the spot.


    Probably because we were having fun talking about the game.


    Sometimes I was alarmed, and no one noticed the signs of a certain person.


    "That sounds like a fun story."


    Yes, I heard voices from behind.


    Coming here with a gentle grin is Aquasteed.


    Three women, the current story talks only with their gaze about whether they were listening or not.


    - Did you hear what I''m saying, Master Aqua?


    - Probably in time......


    - I had no idea what sign of Master Aqua was!


    The conclusion reached by the three men was probably that it was too late.


    And that''s also manifested in Aquasteed''s behavior, where he comes next to Tiara Rose and slowly opens his mouth.


    "Hey, Tiara. Isn''t it time you told me what you''re hiding from me?


    "Oh, that''s..."


    "What does Tiara know?


    Acari and Olivia instantly realized.


    Oh, this is the one who''s finding out... and.


    The two of us look at each other and nod. And tell the mundane Tiara Rose.


    "Dear Tiara, I don''t think I can hide it through anymore, so shouldn''t I confess?


    "I agree."


    "What!? Are you both serious?!?"


    I''m terribly surprised because I didn''t think they''d tell me to talk.


    Aquasteed heard the two words, then decided to grab Tiara Rose from the Tea Party.


    "I''m sorry that the three of us were having a tea party. I''ll borrow Tiara for a while."


    "Go ahead."


    Acari and Olivia respond promptly.


    Rather than that, I must not have enough time for a while so I sent it out with the wrong word "take your time until morning".


    "You found out," he said, dropping off Aquasteed''s back, while the two of us continued our tea party for a delicious cake -


    ¡ó ¡ó ¡ó


    Aquasteed doesn''t know Tiara Rose has memories of her previous life, but she''s always been suspicious that she''s hiding something.


    But I thought you''d tell me what you were hiding someday. But at any given time, what I had stopped visiting and piled up in the aquasteed.


    At first I thought it was just Acari, but apparently to Olivia - Levi knows something, too.


    Exactly the broad-minded Aquasteed was also the limit of patience.


    - How come I''m the only one who doesn''t know about Tiara?


    "Ah, Master Aqua!


    "Shut up until you get to your room"


    "... Huh!


    With Tiara Rose, Aquasteed returned to his room.


    Rigorously demanding that there be no one in the knight watching in front of the door, close the key.


    I''m usually in Tiara Rose''s room, and it''s unusual for two people to be in Aquasteed''s room.


    The simple interior of the monotone can be seen to attach importance to the functional aspect. That seems to represent Aquasteed''s neat character.


    Talking about Tiara Rose''s arm she was grabbing, Aquasteed breathes.


    "I''m sorry I imitated you like I was forced to bring you"


    "No, I''m fine. I shouldn''t have kept it a secret from Aqua for so long... I''ll tell you all about it."


    "Tiara......"


    When they sat on the couch, Tiara Rose slowly started talking about herself.


    That''s far beyond what Aquasteed had in mind, is that possible? and various thoughts swirl around in me.


    But seriously, the way Tiara Rose looks, who thinks she''s sorry for keeping her mouth shut, is not something she''s lying about.


    - I didn''t think you had such a big secret.


    And at the same time, I wonder if that''s why I''ve always been so impotent.


    Tiara Rose bowed her head to Aquasteed, having finished telling her everything.


    "I''ve been quiet, and I''m sorry. You may think of me as a lousy woman..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Still, I wanted to be with Master Aqua. I thought Aqua might make me happy."


    Tiara Rose''s voice, which was clear, gradually engulfed the color of tears.


    What if I told Aquasteed and he hated me? What if they dump you? What if I chose heroin? I guess that thought has always been in Tiara Rose.


    That much could have been expected from Aquasteed as well.


    "Tiara, look up"


    "... Yes"


    "My pretty face is messed up with tears"


    "Well, because... Huh!


    Aquasteed chuckles and follows with his lips the tears that convey to Tiara Rose''s cheek. Lick it as it is and tell him "That''s sweet".


    "I can''t believe it''s sweet.... or are you not angry?


    "Angry? Why?


    "I''ve been hiding it from Master Aqua...?


    "But more than that... from what I''m telling you right now, you like me."


    "- Huh!!"


    I didn''t want Aquasteed to hate me.


    I wanted to do what I could for Aquasteed.


    What if Aquasteed is taken by Isira?


    I was so glad Aquasteed chose me.


    I did tell him that I was a reincarnated person, but more than that, Tiara Rose''s story was overflowing with the feeling that I loved Aquasteed.


    How can I be angry with my beloved who keeps saying such cute things?


    - Even though I''ve decided to like it more.


    How cute to be anxious.


    "Maybe Tiara had memories like that for Marine Forest."


    "Huh...?


    "Me, His Highness Ferres, and Master Lilliage. This country was saved by Tiara."


    So tell them that it was fate that Tiara Rose met Aquasteed as a villain warrant lady.


    "And you swore you''d live with me all the time. If this isn''t destiny, what is it?"


    - Yeah, but.


    "Does Tiara''s fate in this case refer to me and Miss Isira... If that''s destiny, I''ll give it up."


    "Dear Aqua,"


    "I can''t wait to like Tiara so much."


    So tell him not to be afraid to talk about it anymore, even if something happens.


    Tiara Rose nodded desperately and hugged me too much to say, "It''s yakuza". Tiara Rose''s hair touched her cheeks and that''s a little dull.


    Is the Villain Lady so cute?


    "Tiara, look up. I want to kiss you."


    "...... Huh!!"


    Telling her honesty, Tiara Rose trembles in Aquasteed''s arms. It was usually atmospheric, so I guess it would be embarrassing to be told.


    I want to kiss you, but I''m embarrassed, what do I do? That''s what I think. Tiara Rose is moving so cute.


    "Tearer?"


    "So, because! Don''t you always say that......"


    "Really? But if Tiara looks up, I''ll kiss her."


    "Huh!!"


    - Well, how long till Tiara gets her face up?


    Until the dear villain lady who has been taken from the neighbouring country is honest - one minute more.

 91 1. Maiden Game Love Facts

    Marine Forest, a great country loved by fairies.


    Usually the sun''s rays were pouring down comfortably, but now it was snowing and announcing a winter visit. I wouldn''t have that much to pile up, but I''d be able to make enough of a small snowman.


    Tiara Rose looked out the window in her room and murmured, "It''s supposed to cool down," she said.


    "Winter is the season when you want chocolate......!


    I would love to have ice cream if I had one, but unfortunately there is no one in this world. So in the winter season, convenience stores and so on often remind me of seasonal chocolates and I want to eat them.


    Philine laughs at Tiara Rose, who is giving her the kind of chocolate she wants to eat while folding her fingers, as she prepares her tea with Aquasteed sitting on the couch.


    "Is dessert chocolate for a while?


    "Dear Aqua! Winter makes me want to eat."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at the aquasteed of the teasing.


    "I made some tea, so take your time. If you''re too close to the window, you''ll catch a cold."


    "Right. Thank you, Philine."


    Sit down next to Aquasteed and include warm tea in your mouth.


    I took one breath and leaned on Aquasteed''s shoulder.


    She is Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest.


    Fluffy and shaky honey pink hair is so adorable, a gentle smile attracts everyone.


    This is the villain''s warrant for the game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, which has been married here from the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli, located next to Marine Forest.


    "What''s wrong, Tiara? Sweet?"


    "It''s getting a little chilly, so I thought I''d pluck it in like an aqua"


    "... say that cute thing again"


    That''s what Aquasteed said, gently stroking Tiara Rose''s head deposited on her shoulder.


    her husband and king of Marine Forest.


    Aquasteed Marine Forest.


    Dark blue hair, golden eyes. The power that dwells in it is mighty, supporting this country with the Fairy King as the King of the Starry Skies.


    Calm and harsh, but also has the side that it''s sweet for Tiara Rose.


    It was Filine, the maid of the Tiara Rose, who was smiling at the two of them.


    He puts Tiara Rose first in everything and has served me from a small place.


    "You can''t have chocolate right away, but if it''s a chocolate cookie, you can have it."


    "Really? Glad!


    When Filine told him so, Tiara Rose flashed her face.


    Tiara Rose loves maiden games and sweets, and lots of treats and more have been delivered under her as gifts from time to time.


    I have concerns about getting fat if I eat too much, but that''s where I want to do something about it by exercising and stretching.


    "Speaking of which," Aquasteed said as Philine stepped back to prepare the chocolate cookies.


    "It''s southwest of here, do you know a country called Sandrose?


    "Is that Sandrose? Of course I do."


    Nodding at Aquasteed''s words, Tiara Rose thinks of Sandrose information.


    A great empire with unbeatable territory to Marine Forest, but half of its territory is a burning country that is deserted. However, the oasis dotted in the desert is very beautifully made and has a good reputation for seeing the mysteries of nature.


    If we try to get from here to Sandrose, it would take at least two months one way using a carriage.


    - Speaking of which, I''ve read in books that romance is a thriving country.


    "Sure, it was polygamy, wasn''t it? Marine Forest doesn''t seem to have the same culture."


    "That''s Tiara, you know her well."


    "No, no..."


    But Tiara Rose tilts her neck wondering what the hell happened to Sandrose.


    "Actually, they took the deal. Anything, I think I want a Tiara Rose flower."


    "Flowers, sir?


    Hearing words that I didn''t expect, Tiara Rose makes it right. I can''t believe they want Marine Forest national flowers from countries that aren''t usually involved.


    "The flowers of Tiara Rose are flowers that grew and blossomed with the magic of Tiara Rose. Very cherished by the people, the city is full of flowers.


    It''s just a little hard to take care of - but there''s no problem with the fairies in the woods taking care of me because of them.


    I think so. Tiara Rose, but I am anxious that she will grow up in Sandrose.


    If there were to be such a thing as sending a flower named Tiara Rose, the queen, to dry up¡­ would it be awkward for both countries?


    Or it wouldn''t be nice to send a national flower as a cut flower. It won''t last longer than a bowl, and I don''t even think it will hold up without withering to Sandrose in the first place.


    Thinking about things like that, honestly...... makes me think it''s subtle.


    "After all, is it difficult to bring flowers to Sandrose"


    "... right. I wish there was a fairy in the woods in the other country too, because I''m not there."


    "Yeah. Let''s politely say no to Sandrose"


    That''s what Aquasteed said, tangling his fingers in Tiara Rose''s hair. Tiara Rose laughs at that gesture like she plays and tells her, "It''s ticklish".


    "But I can''t believe I want flowers... Anyway, I hope you can give me some Marine Forest treats and make them popular with Sandrose."


    "Sounds like Tiara."


    I don''t mind spraying the flowers, but I need the sweets! and Tiara Rose theorizes forcefully.


    But certainly Aquasteed, too. That''s just something I doubt. I know if you want me to see real flowers, but the Sandrose royalty has never visited Marine Forest.


    "Oh, but..."


    "Maybe it''s a present for a woman."


    "Love Power, so be it."


    Then don''t stick around, Tiara Rose thinks too.


    "But it''s not like you don''t have an identity, is it?


    "The Sandrose Empire has one emperor¡­ you have nobility underneath it. I heard the emperor has five side chambers."


    "Five..."


    Listening to Aquasteed, Tiara Rose puts on her face.


    I can assure you that Tiara Rose, whose one-on-one romance is fundamental, would never like to have a wife that much besides herself.


    - He''s an emperor.


    I''ve never seen him before, but I''m pretty sure he must.


    There''s going to be a fight between the side rooms, and the relationships are going to be loose.


    "Yeah, but I guess the side chamber side also determines the pros and cons depending on the identity of the house"


    "There are nobles, but there are side rooms chosen by civilians."


    Tiara Rose, who imagined the mud, but listens to Aquasteed and opens his eyes.


    In Marine Forest and Lapis Lazuli, marriage to a royal family requires the identity of a lady. But Sandrose doesn''t seem to need it.


    - I mean, can you make free love, too?


    I don''t like polygamy, but I can like it on that point.


    Aquasteed noticed that Tiara Rose''s atmosphere had changed, "Do you care about anything?," he called out.


    "It''s not just about political marriage, it''s about the culture of making love and marrying freely in that way."


    "You said that''s where Tiara lived in Japan."


    "Yes. I also want to honor my blood muscles... I do know that"


    All this is a difficult problem.


    - But considering it''s still a maiden game...


    What a legitimate bloodmuscle character becomes a popular element of the iron plate in the maiden game. But if the same thing is actually happening around me, so be it...


    When it comes to political marriage around Tiara Rose, is it around Olivia, Isira? Elliot is not a nobleman, but I''m sure it would be hard if he liked the noble lady.


    "We brought you chocolate cookies"


    "Thank you, Philine"


    Thinking about it, Filine brought me some chocolate cookies. But that look doesn''t look cheerful anywhere.


    Until earlier, it was normal.


    - It was taking a while to get ready, and maybe something happened?


    But there''s Aquasteed, and I''m like, "What''s wrong? I can''t even ask."


    It''s going to be like an order, and it''s going to get Philine in trouble.


    "With cookies, I also brought you hot milk. I''m not putting sugar or anything, but what do you do?


    "Wow, it''s going to warm up. I have cookies, you can stay put."


    "Yes."


    Aquasteed also nods at Tiara Rose''s words and receives hot milk. What a luxury it is to have hot milk and sweets in a warm room on a snowy day.


    Filine smiles at Tiara Rose, loosening her cheeks.


    Go straight to the window and put your hands on the curtain before it cools down. And to the lid, I noticed that the snow was starting to accumulate.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, Your Majesty Aquasteed, it looks like there''s been snow"


    "Really? There hasn''t been a snowy year since I came to Marine Forest."


    "It''s a warm climate, so it''s not the first time there''s snow. Unusual."


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed also rise and look out the window.


    "Wow, wow! If you make a candle and make a cheese fondue inside, it looks like fun..."


    "Kamakura?"


    To Tiara Rose''s shaky voice, Aquasteed tilted his neck.


    "It''s about a house like a cave made of snow. The truth is, they eat pots inside."


    "Heh... That''s funny."


    When I enjoyed the snow with my eyes and then went back to the couch, my fingertips that were touching the window got a little cold. When Tiara Rose accidentally tried to warm her up with exhalation, she took that hand by Aquasteed.


    I was not given room to argue, and Chihua Aquasteed''s lips touch Tiara Rose''s fingertips.


    "... Huh! Dear Aqua,"


    "Tiara''s fingertips, they''re cold."


    Chuckling and laughing, Aquasteed folds her cheeks over Tiara Rose''s hands.


    "Master Aqua''s cheeks are warm."


    Even though he gets embarrassed, Tiara Rose smiles. Aquasteed laughs as he tickles his fingertips at Aquasteed''s cheek, which he touched as it was.


    "Tickle"


    ''Cause I''m ticklish.''


    "Then let me give it back to you, too?


    "What!"


    Hearing Aquasteed''s words, Tiara Rose has been trying to keep her hands off Aquasteed - but Aquasteed is disappointed that she can''t escape.


    Tiara Rose gets hugged by Aquasteed all the time and conceptualizes.


    "Aqua''s fingertips are cold, so I''ll warm them up."


    "Thanks"


    Tiara laughed dull at Rose''s offer, and Aquasteed kissed that cheek gently.

 92 2. Filine Facts

    Aquasteed, who reigned from Prince Wang to King, turned the location of the office into a wide area. Because of the increase in the number of bookcases where materials are placed and the number of people entering and leaving work.


    Still, the interior of the calm atmosphere is the same as before, so I could quickly get used to it.


    tall windows and an Aquasteed concierge placed in front of it. The leather chair is pitch black and seems comfortable to sit on.


    There are also tables and sofas for discussion. But today, Tiara Rose, who sat there, looked magical.


    ¡­¡­


    Aquasteed and Elliot, who were working, accidentally look at each other and tilt their necks.


    I''m always up to something with a healthy Tiara Rose in mind, so I''m not planning on doing it again...... I can''t help but think.


    "What''s wrong, Tiara? If you need anything, I want you to talk to me."


    "Dear Aqua... Actually, I don''t think Philine''s well."


    "Philine did? I''m worried about that."


    Aquasteed takes his seat and goes to the couch where Tiara Rose sits and sits next to him.


    Seeing that, Tiara Rose leaned against Aquasteed''s shoulder. Take a small breath and get a voice saying, "I''m worried".


    "Oh, maybe... Elliot hasn''t heard anything? From Filine."


    "Is that me?


    "Yes."


    Pong and clapping his hands, Tiara Rose turns her gaze to Elliot.


    Gentle eye area and soft orange brown hair. Tranquil in character, but excellent proximity to Aquasteed.


    Tiara Rose thought he might be listening to something from Filine because she and Philine were colleagues.


    Elliot thinks like she''s worried about "uh-huh," but she doesn''t seem to have any idea and shakes her head small.


    "I think it was as usual......"


    "Yes...... Philine is worried because there are some things she tries to solve alone."


    "Sure, it''s solid."


    If he hadn''t been consulted, he wouldn''t have looked any different.


    Tiara Rose finds nothing clueless and unfortunate, but given Filine''s character, I''m convinced she can''t help it either.


    Instead, maybe it''s because we''ve known each other for a long time that I''ve noticed how Filine has been doing lately.


    - There''s something a little boisterous about it, isn''t there?


    Although I''m usually fine, I seem to be losing my mouth these days.


    But it''s hard to even think that Philine can honestly tell me to be honest with you.


    "Me, I''m going to see what''s going on!


    "Shall I come with you?


    "No, Master Aqua should stay at work. I''ll be fine by myself."


    "Okay."


    When Tiara Rose stands up dull, Aquasteed cares and speaks up. but that is turned down by tiara rose.


    Indeed, Aquasteed quickly convinced that it would not be a good idea for men to squeeze into trouble-seeking consultations between women.


    One word, I just told him "be careful" and sent Tiara Rose out.


    Tiara Rose walks through every corner well cleaned and beautiful hallways with a mysterious face.


    - Suddenly I said to Filine, "What''s wrong? Why don''t you ask?


    In the meantime, let''s start by asking what''s going on with Filine, who would be resting in the pantry.


    So Tiara Rose even came to the holding room where the maids were free to use it. Gently open the door just a few centimeters and peek inside.


    He''s like a suspicious man, but fortunately there''s no one else but Tiara Rose right now.


    Behind the holding room...... in the window seat, there was a figure of Filine looking at something.


    - There he is!


    I wonder what Filine is looking at, Tiara Rose stares. Apparently, you''re looking at the letter.


    That look looks depressing, and I guess the cause of my recent troubles is that letter.


    But I don''t even see the content of the letter you''re just reading, and it''s not a good idea to take a peek at it on your own.


    - Shall I speak up?


    But maybe it''s a concern you don''t want to be asked.


    When Monmon and Tiara Rose were troubled that way, Philine and I met each other in the sieve.


    "... ah"


    And at the same time, the surprise was in my voice.


    Well, I can''t help it if they find me. Tiara Rose opens the door, goes all the way down to Filine, who is in the grand holding room, and sits in the chair across the street.


    Filine looked strange and saw Tiara Rose.


    "Dear Tiara Rose? If you call me, I''ll be on my way..."


    "It''s okay."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at her for looking sorry.


    "If you don''t like it, you don''t have to tell me... because I haven''t seemed to be well with Filine lately"


    "-!"


    To Tiara Rose''s words, Filine''s shoulders bounce. My husband poked me at the stars, and I guess I felt sorry for him for worrying.


    Lowering his eyebrows, Filine nodded as she noticed.


    "You can''t hide anything from Master Tiara Rose."


    "Filine......"


    With that said, Filine sent the letter she had to Tiara Rose.


    Tiara Rose, who interprets it as meaning you can look at it, reads the contents through her eyes. That was sent by Filine''s parents, but she frowned unintentionally at the one-sided content.


    "As it says, my parents told me to get engaged..."


    "Because I''m a good old man," Philine says, smiling bitterly.


    As she told me, the contents of the letter were about marriage.


    Philine is 21 years old, too, so she''s old enough to get married. I don''t usually even talk about romance, so I never thought I''d be worried about marriage.


    - But if you think about it, you deserve it.


    If I hadn''t come to Marine Forest with Tiara Rose, Philine would have been married too.


    Nevertheless, I am concerned about the spicy look on Filine''s face.


    "You don''t seem very motivated... who are you?


    "... Dear Tiara Rose, I''m Lucas Dunston, as you know"


    "Sure... that was a childhood thing for Filine."


    "Yes."


    Ask me, it was Filine''s childhood tame being recommended by her fianc¨¦e.


    Of course, Tiara also knows about Philine''s childhood training Lucas as a nobleman.


    Lucas Dunston.


    He is the eldest son of the Count Dunston family, 22 years old.


    Which would be a nobleman who would fall into the wealthy category.


    Tiara Rose also remembers talking several times at night clubs and so on.


    In retrospect of what he was like, I do think Lucas was often watching Filine.


    - Speaking of which, it''s like I saw Master Lucas chase Philine around...


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly when it seems like a one-sided Lucas one-sided thought.


    "I do not want to return to Lapis Lazuli on the grounds of marriage. I will always want to serve Tiara Rose."


    "Filine...... Thank you, I''m so glad to hear that. But if you like Philine, don''t hesitate for me."


    If I think about myself and give up who Philine likes...... I don''t want you to be.


    I told him for it, but Filine smiles fluently and says thank you.


    "As long as I marry Lucas, I''m ready to be separated from home."


    "Uh, Philine, don''t you like Master Lucas?


    "I can''t believe you like that guy!


    Looking at the clearly out-of-the-box filine, Tiara Rose opens her eyes. Filine rarely reveals her emotions about herself.


    Sigh, Filine continues her words.


    "Lucas is who he is. If you don''t get what you want, I guess it''s not funny. You have persevered in inviting me to go out, and I still receive letters regularly."


    "Really..."


    I know it''s Lucas'' love heart, but everything seems to be working the other way around.


    "I keep saying no when it comes to marriage, but I''m persistent. I hope you don''t mind."


    "It was... If Filine doesn''t want to get married, I won''t say anything. If you have any problems, talk to me. Because it helps."


    "Thank you, Dear Tiara Rose"


    Philine smiles with a neat look, either because she was able to speak inside her chest.


    Then I''ll go back.


    "Yes, if you need anything, don''t hesitate to call me"


    "Yes."


    Knowing the circumstances of Filine, Tiara Rose leaves the holding room behind.


    Because staying all the time won''t be a break for Filine. He slowly came back and told him that there was no problem, and Tiara Rose turned to the guest room where Sirius was staying.


    Sirius has come to study abroad from Lapis Lazuli, home of Tiara Rose.


    I decided it would be a good idea to ask him if I were to ask what was within Lapis Lazuli. Of course, to get information about Lucas, who is getting married to Filine.


    When I told the maid with Sirius what to do, I decided to prepare a room and have tea there. Tiara Rose, the queen of one country, doesn''t go into a man''s room.


    After waiting for a while for tea, Sirius arrived.


    "Sister Tiara!


    "Prince Sirius, suddenly I''m sorry"


    "No. I''m just glad to see Sister Tiara"


    Sirius Lapislazuli came to the room happy.


    Lightly pigmented golden hair and empty eyes. He is the next king to inherit the throne of the Lapis Lazuli kingdom, although he is still a 10-year-old boy who laughs with an unusual look.


    I was Tiara Rose''s ex-fianc¨¦, and I''m going to be Halt Knights'' brother.


    "But what''s wrong? It''s rare that Sister Tiara needs me."


    "Actually, I need to ask you something..."


    "What do you want to hear, sir?


    To a decent Sirius, Tiara Rose advances the couch across the street saying, "Please sit down". Where the maid prepared the tea, she cut the story out.


    "... I see, son of the Dunston family. Of course I do."


    "All I know is what happened before I married you, so I don''t know much about you right now."


    "Oh, right"


    Sirius tried to remember and gave Tiara Rose the information she knew.


    Lucas'' house is fairly lubricated financially, he said, succeeding in the business of crafts such as processing corals. It also has multiple stores in the city and is one of the most popular in Lapis Lazuli.


    "I see, you can certainly snort at me..."


    "Sister Tiara?


    "Looks like I''m proposing to Filine, and I wanted to know who she was."


    "Were you... The Sanfists remember that, on the contrary, the business is not doing very well"


    Contrary to the Dunston family in Lucas, the business of the Sunfist family, Filine''s home, is not performing well, Sirius says.


    Although Tiara Rose also knew that Filine''s house was not originally very wealthy, the situation may be serious in addition to her thoughts.


    I mean, I can see that this time it''s a political marriage with a lot of money involved.


    "Conditionally, I don''t think it''s bad..."


    "Right. Objectively, it''s a political marriage for no reason."


    Sirius seems to have thought we should get married, and he''s making it seem strange.


    But as Tiara Rose, I don''t think I want to endorse a marriage that Filine isn''t convinced of. I wish I had an excuse to say no somehow, but Lucas wouldn''t be convinced by the seeming no.


    First I thanked Sirius and Tiara Rose left the room behind.

 93 3. Fun preparation

    "Dear Aqua, It''s a little steep, can I come out to Master Olivia tomorrow?


    "Tomorrow? That''s a lot steep. Sure, but what happened?


    "I was going to talk to Olivia a little bit about Filine."


    It''s night and time to relax on the couch. Tiara Rose asked Aquasteed for permission to go out and was given a light acknowledgement.


    Besides, Tiara Rose can relieve herself of her expression.


    "You were worried during the day. I wish there was something I could do to help, but it''s not a good idea to talk too much into women''s problems......?


    "It''s not, but if it''s Aqua, it''s important"


    "... I think that''s the same for Tiara"


    Have you forgotten that she''s the queen? And, Aquasteed laughs.


    "Also, of course, I''m aware! But when it comes to marriage, Aqua, the king, speaks too differently."


    "Marriage......? Have you been talking to Filine?"


    "... Yep. But he''s not a very good person."


    So Tiara Rose thought it would be nice to get some advice from Olivia.


    If Aquasteed could intervene here, it would develop into a diplomatic issue. It''s not the same as Tiara Rose being a little consulted or empowered.


    Aquasteed mouths gently on Tiara Rose''s forehead and says, "Fine."


    "Be careful and go. But you don''t have to talk to me if anything happens, do you?


    "Yes, of course."


    Keeping her hair gently caressed, Tiara Rose leaned against Aquasteed''s shoulder.


    The next day, Tiara Rose took Filine and her escort Tarmo to visit Olivia''s mansion.


    The garden is set to a green tone and it is beautiful to see that it is already winter. The gardens that get lonely except for the really warm season are the other way around.


    As soon as we arrived, Olivia and Levi greeted us.


    Olivia Ariadel, a sequel villain''s warrant.


    A Duke''s maid, the same reincarnator as Tiara Rose. I love the maiden game, I can''t stop nosebleeds marrying characters and tell them I can''t, the woman whose hobby is pilgrimage to the Holy Land.


    Rose red hair and beautiful honey green eyes. He looks intelligent with glasses, but he''s a pervert in one way or another.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, I''ve been waiting for you."


    "I''m sorry I suddenly visited you"


    "No, never mind. Let''s go to your room."


    I need you to take me to Olivia''s room and force Levi to leave, who wants to stay, because we''re talking to each other... Have Filine wait in the holding room with Tarmo, too.


    After a cup of tea and settling down, Tiara Rose cut to the point.


    "Actually... I need to talk to you about Filine. Not only that, I hope we can talk about the whole thing..."


    "Overall, is it?


    To Tiara Rose''s words, Olivia tilts her neck.


    So I told her that I was coming to Filine to propose marriage and that I wish I could make more free love......


    "It was..." Olivia says, thinking a little.


    I wondered if maybe there was any good idea, and Tiara Rose would also shut up and stare at Olivia. And a while later, Olivia opened her mouth.


    "Actually, there''s something I''ve always wanted to try."


    "What did you want to try, is?


    "Yes, this would also be the first step in what Tiara Rose calls a free romantic development."


    Olivia looks very happy, smiling and clapping her hands to tell her.


    What the hell are you suggesting? That''s what Tiara Rose tried to hear - but before that, blood dripped from Olivia''s nose.


    Nose bleeding.


    "Yeah eh!? Are you okay, Master Olivia...... eh!


    "I''m sorry, if I did! It''s the usual, so don''t worry about it."


    "Yes, always..."


    Approximately Tiara Rose, who looks worried, Olivia wipes her nose with a familiar hand.


    "There''s really no problem, so don''t worry. Imagine getting a little excited..."


    - What the hell did you imagine, Dear Olivia!!


    Unexpectedly, I blush until Tiara Rose.


    "All I propose is a masquerade!


    "Masquerade...... Huh! Ha, sure that can get you excited......"


    I hear Olivia''s words, and Tiara Rose occasionally.


    A masquerade is a night club in which all participants participate under a mask.


    You can dance with people who don''t know their names or identities and enjoy the moment -.


    - If Master Aqua wears a mask, it definitely looks good on him.


    Tiara Rose, so sure, would love to see it. At the same time, he nodded forcefully, "Let''s hold it".


    Olivia definitely also wants to see a seductive figure wearing a mask of offensive characters. I know how that feels very well, Tiara Rose nods in her heart.


    And at the same time, it becomes a meeting place for Filine.


    She doesn''t usually attend nightclubs because she''s a samurai. But this is a masquerade, so you just have to convince... or this one will get ready under the water and join us.


    Imagine Philine''s dress, which I haven''t seen in a while, Tiara Rose dusts.


    "If only this would create a man who cares about Filine. As far as I''m concerned, Elliot and I seem to be breathing..."


    "Near His Majesty Aquasteed, you''re Elliot the offensive character. Sure, it might be nice, but he may be tough because he doesn''t have nobility"


    "Really..."


    Identity is tough.


    Although Elliot is near Aquasteed''s side. Marriage may also be possible if Philine''s house accepts, but unfortunately what the Sanfists are looking for would be a nobleman who can afford it financially.


    - I hope we find a good landing place somehow.


    "Doesn''t Master Filine have any men who like him?


    "You''ve never heard of anyone in particular... I hear a lot about you."


    "I hate people who are going to propose, but there''s no one else I can marry...... so you know. After all, there is only a masquerade......! If that''s the case, we''ll have to get ready! Levy, Levy!


    Olivia, full of motivation, calls Levi just because she can''t wait.


    "Did you call? Olivia."


    "Levi, I''m hosting a masquerade."


    "Yes, I did. Now get ready to connect."


    With just one word from Olivia about holding it, Levi either understood what he was supposed to do or left the room. To that momentary event, Tiara Rose turns her eyes round.


    I think Tiara Rose is the same and an unusual butler.


    Levi.


    A butler dedicated to Olivia, aged 24.


    Rose Red''s eyes have a strong presence, although she looks calm wearing black hair and butler clothes. If it''s for Olivia, it''s a man who does everything.


    "Dear Olivia, what exactly did you give Levy? Specifically, we haven''t decided on anything..."


    "I''ve always wanted to try a masquerade. I''ve already told Levi everything about the ideal masquerade!


    That''s Olivia.


    While Tiara Rose smiles bitterly, she asks Olivia what she will do. There are many things that need to be done by the time of the event, such as where it is held and the number of invitees.


    Soon Olivia began to tell the details of the masquerade with pleasure.


    "The venue will be at a separate residence of the Ariadel family. It''s not hard to get around because it''s on this property, even if it''s a separate residence."


    "If it''s Olivia''s mansion, you can rest assured you''re joining us"


    The Ariadel family, the Duke''s house, never does anything nasty. If this was a secret invitation, there might have been some kind of obnoxious event¡­ and there might have been some suspicious people out there.


    "Invites are from the aristocracy of Marine Forest¡­ age should be at least 18 years old. The upper limit is up to 25 years old. I don''t care if you''re unmarried or married. You may not think that meeting is the ball, and Tiara Rose will be able to attend."


    "I think it''s good. Yeah, but... if you don''t call Akali, he''s gonna get mad at you later."


    I can easily imagine how angry you didn''t call me to such a fun event. Unexpectedly, Tiara Rose and Olivia look at each other and laugh bitterly.


    "Send an invitation to Lady Akali as well. It''s going to take some time to get here from Lapis Lazuli and... What about holding it in, like, two months?


    "Yeah, I don''t think that would be a problem. I think Aqua can adjust her schedule if she''s two months away."


    Even if it was a tough schedule, I think I''m going to make time for it somehow...... and Tiara Rose thinks. You must be worried about what Tiara Rose would do if she went to a masquerade by herself and got a little bit of a weird guy.


    It''s easy to imagine, and I laugh unexpectedly.


    "Dear Tiara Rose?


    "Oh, I''m sorry. I wondered what would happen if we had an event that wasn''t in the game...... so excited. I hope it turns out well for Filine too..."


    "That''s right."


    After that, it was not long before the evening filled with details of the masquerade at Tiara Rose and Olivia.


    And a month and a half later, an acari came from Lapis Lazuli. I also sent an invitation to Halt Knights, who became Acari''s husband, but I am getting a reply that I decline because I am busy.


    "Long time no see, Dear Tiara, Dear Olivia!


    Yeah, I let my expression shine, and I rendezvoused at Olivia''s mansion.


    The three of us are having a masquerade meeting today.


    Akali Lapislazuli, heroine of the maiden game Lapislazuli''s Ring.


    Beautiful dark hair and black eyes, no matter what you look at them, are Japanese. That was supposed to happen, and Akali moved from Japan to this world.


    He is now married to Haltnites, the second prince of the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli, and lives in Lapis Lazuli.


    "I''m glad you both look good! I was so excited to see you."


    "Yes, I''m glad Akali is doing well too"


    "It''s been a while. Now let''s talk about the masquerade......!


    Tiara Rose and Olivia respond to Acari''s greeting and rejoice in a long time.


    By the way, Aquasteed said he would adjust his plans and join in no matter how. Tiara Rose, Aquasteed, we both have a new outfit for that so I''m looking forward to it now.


    The women''s party began, surrounding Levi''s prepared tea and treats.


    Nevertheless, what we talk about is a huge masquerade. It is on a considerable scale because most noblemen who sent invitations have replied to participate.


    Flowers will be blossoming on the interior and on the stories of drinks and dishes to be served on the day.


    By the way, all dessert relationships are left to Tiara Rose.


    To the lid, an acari muttered "Marriage......" while eating cookies.


    "It''s kind of weird that a character''s engagement that didn''t have a romantic element in the game"


    As for the clams, I can''t seem to imagine much.


    "Sure...... Lady Filine was the ending to follow Lady Tiara Rose, who was deported from the country."


    "Speaking of which, you wrote that on the endo roll"


    In response, Olivia tells him what happened to Filine after the ending. However, this does not apply to the status quo, as this is the story of Tiara Rose if she had been deported from the country.


    Tiara Rose snorts, too, that''s what it said when it came to it.


    Akali goes on to tell her the exact things she can''t imagine from her regular girlfriend.


    "It''s strange to think that now Lapis Lazuli''s childhood taming will be her fianc¨¦e... Because Filine went out of the country, and she''s not in the same shape, but she''s still out of the country. When that happens, don''t you think it would be better to be tied to the nameless Mob of Marine Forest?


    Now Acari tells me that only Filine is not going back to Lapis Lazuli.


    "Sure, Tiara Rose... it''s me... but I can''t imagine Filine going back to the country even though I followed her"


    "Isn''t it? So I''m sure you''ll find someone nice in Marine Forest in Filine."


    When Tiara Rose agrees with it, Acari easily concludes. She''s basically optimistic, but on the contrary, she''s often saved by that personality.


    "A man character near Filine...... not a mob, but you have Elliot. But what about it, because it''s an offensive character?


    "Uh-huh, you don''t really know where it is. I would support you if you two were thinking, but basically you''re on Philine''s side."


    If Elliot likes Philine, Tiara Rose is going to disagree if Philine does no.


    Even if Akali went ahead with Elliot, Philine''s feelings should be a priority.


    Talking about that, Olivia made a suggestion.


    "Then why don''t we invite Elliot, too?


    "That''s good!


    "Agreed!


    To that suggestion, Acari immediately raises his hand, and Tiara Rose goes on.


    The masquerade you''re planning is going to be pretty fun and busy -.

 94 4. Its Like A Wizard

    "Philine, can I have a word with you?"


    "Yes."


    "It''s about my future plans..."


    Tiara Rose''s own room, cut out stories about the masquerade in the relaxing hours of the afternoon.


    "Well, is it a masquerade?


    "I think we''re gonna have a lot of busy days."


    The ball will be held at Olivia''s Mansion. I contact all participants when I send them an invitation to see them as individuals and to be close to them.


    I can''t reveal my identity or name on the same day, but I can see you later.


    Both men and women have Tiara Rose flowers on their bachelor masks so that they can know whether they are married or single.


    "A lot of tea parties with Olivia were a meeting, wasn''t it?"


    "Really? I''d also like Philine to follow me on that day..."


    "Of course, I''ll be with you!


    "Thanks"


    Because she is the samurai of Lady Tiara Rose, and Filine smiles.


    - Not as a samurai, but as a participant...


    That''s not to be told to Filine yet. If I were to give you an invitation, Philine would definitely refuse. And they follow me as a Tiara Rose samurai.


    "Then you also have to choose a dress....... but why not make it an unusual dress for a masquerade? That way, you won''t know it''s Tiara Rose."


    "Fine."


    Hearing Philine''s suggestion, Tiara Rose immediately agrees that she seems to enjoy it.


    There were usually a lot of water colored dresses, so you could try a different type. Just now Philine. How about that one, isn''t this good? And, I''m going to give you the type of dress.


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at the way she seems to enjoy herself.


    - I also have to give Philine an extraordinary dress.


    And then, say what you were wondering.


    "Doesn''t Filine have anyone who likes her?


    "Huh? Is it me?


    When Tiara Rose asks, Filine does the right thing. Apparently, I didn''t think much about myself. Tilt his neck to worry and smile bitterly, "Especially......"


    "I like to work, so you''re not very willing to marry me..."


    "Philine is a worker, for sure. I want to tell you to get some rest."


    Rather, is Filine resting properly? And as much as Tiara Rose thinks. Of course, I get some time off, but I''m often studying.


    - I hope this is an opportunity for you to play with Filine, too.


    With that in mind, Tiara Rose and Filine spent the afternoon consulting on the dress.


    The period of fun preparation was quickly over and it was the day of the masquerade.


    Tiara Rose wears a dark blue dress that she doesn''t normally wear, with a long white hem lace bolero. When my hair went up, I got a lot more tone than usual.


    "It''s nice to be cute, but the adult atmosphere is nice too! If you put a mask on it, no one will know it''s Tiara Rose."


    "Thank you, Philine"


    As Tiara Rose and Filine smile, Aquasteed, who was watching her prep, giggles.


    "Sure looks like someone else from the usual"


    "If that''s what you mean, Master Aqua looks like someone else, doesn''t he?


    "Really?"


    Aquasteed is a silver and white suit. I usually have a lot of dark shades of stuff, so it kind of shows up fresh. Plus my hair is flushing a little back, so if I put on a mask and can''t see my face, I''m going to get nervous...... Tiara Rose thinks.


    - Too often, my heart doesn''t seem to hold.


    "... very good looking"


    Tiara Rose goes in front of the couch where Aquasteed is sitting and hugs her as she stands. I can see that the face is red and illuminated.


    Aquasteed arcs on his mouth and calls his name with a slightly lower voice, "Tiara". So much so that I want to keep my hands intact, tangle my fingers, and lock up some colorful Tiara Rose like this.


    "Not if you get caught by a weird guy, right?


    "It won''t catch, no more"


    - Even though Master Aqua is here.


    "Besides, married people don''t wear flowers. I don''t think any man would bother to dictate a married woman, would he?


    "¡­ so much so that Tiara is attractive."


    "Then even Master Aqua is. Don''t look at anyone but me, okay?


    "Of course."


    Seeing the two with a sweet atmosphere, Filine gently left the room behind.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, you make me happy."


    Philine, walking down the hall in the mood of Run, wanted to confirm the carriage while she was at it. I''ve made arrangements, so I guess it''s time to be ready.


    "We shouldn''t be late for the masquerade, so we have to hurry..."


    As Filine walked just a little faster and passed in front of a certain door - suddenly, she was grabbed by her arm for a long time and dragged inside the door.


    "Khaaaa!? What!?"


    He hastily tries to rebuild the system, but his opponent''s arms are not strong enough. In a weak filine, you won''t even be able to shake it.


    An unpleasant sweat tells me on my back and I want to call for help somehow. But I don''t like using magic, and the sea fairies who are blessing Philine are not here.


    Exactly desperate - that''s what I thought, Filine, but I open my eyes to the voices I hear.


    "I won''t take anything else and eat it"


    "Huh... Huh!? Ah, you!


    "We don''t have much time, so be quiet"


    Even though she was so scared that she was about to cry, Filine raises her voice trying to hold down her trembling body.


    "You think you can do this, Levi!!"


    "... of course, I have your permission"


    "Huh!?"


    Ten people brought in - Levi answers in a cool voice - to the scolding Philine''s words. On the contrary, I panic in my head about what the hell Philine is all about.


    Whose permission did you get? Levi''s husband is Olivia, but Filine''s husband is Tiara Rose.


    But I don''t think Tiara Rose will give you permission to do this.


    "Don''t be ridiculous. I will return to Lord Tiara Rose."


    "You shouldn''t do that. This is an order from Olivia and Tiara Rose."


    "Huh!? Do you think I would believe such a lie!?"


    Come on, Philine reveals her anger.


    There''s no way my husband would allow this kind of kidnapping.


    "Well, the way was left to me... it''s been somewhat more forceful"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    That''s definitely bad for Levi, and Filine pulls her cheeks.


    ¡­¡­ What is it, the outfit? What''s wrong with your usual butler clothes? "


    "Non non! Now I''m not Olivia''s butler, I''m Olivia''s wizard."


    "Macho, grab...?


    Levi was in a wizard''s robe.


    What are you talking about? I thought this butler and Filine didn''t want to get bottomless with her cold eyes. But I can also see that there must be orders from Tiara Rose and Olivia on this wizard part.


    Filine sighs and asks Levy what the hell she''s going to do.


    "Of course I''m a wizard, so here''s what I''m gonna do."


    When Filine is fed up with what the hell she''s going to do, Levi suddenly flicks her robe. What the hell kind of performance... I thought so for a moment, and when I realized it, Filine was wearing a dress.


    ¡­¡­


    Unexpectedly check your whole body.


    "Huh? Liar, why..."


    Cream and light green dress with champagne gold lace. The hairstyle is half-upped and even wears a loose wave.


    I usually lift my hair and wear it in my samurai clothes, which makes me look unfamiliar to myself.


    It was years ago when I last wore a dress.


    "... what are you going to do, Levi? I mean, how do you let me get dressed...?


    "I''m a wizard, that''s how easy it is"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I wouldn''t be a wizard.


    That''s what I wanted to say, Filine, but before that, Levi tells me, "I''ll be there". And give Philine what he took out of the robe.


    "Oh, give me this"


    "Huh? On the mask, Tiara Rose flowers?


    "That''s right. Put it on quickly, we''ll head to the venue."


    "Yeah eh!?"


    Tell him so, Levy walks early enough with Filine in his arms. No, you could call it a race. That''s fast.


    "Levi, please don''t"


    "I want to get back under Olivia as soon as possible, so please be nice."


    "Huh!"


    How selfish - I try to tell you that, but speaking of which, I recall this man saying this was an order of Olivia and Tiara Rose.


    I mean, I didn''t give directions on how to do it, but I want you to dress up and attend the masquerade - which is probably what Tiara Rose wants.


    Indeed, Filine never attended as a lady even if she was invited to a night club or something. Tiara Rose kept a secret from Filine and took hard means to snort in some ways.


    "Because I was troubled, Master Tiara Rose set me up with a place like this..."


    "Nobility is a hassle."


    "... right. I need to find someone nice, too."


    When Filine squeaked, Levi responded unexpectedly.


    With a bitter smile about it, I think it''s time to consolidate the fruit again. If something similar happens in the future, it could annoy Tiara Rose.


    Then I guess I''d like a future where I marry the aristocratic son of Marine Forest.


    "I belong to Olivia, so don''t fall in love"


    "I''m not in love, what are you talking about"


    "That''s more than anything."


    Philine laughed unexpectedly because she looked serious and Levi told her.


    As it was flushed, Filine came to the Ariadel mansion where the masquerade was held. Put on a mask and put on a tiara rose flower that represents being unmarried in your ear.


    "Wow... wow"


    Once inside, a large number of writers and warrants wearing masks were chatting. There is a dance space in the center and some people are dancing.


    Cooking spaces seem to be the subject of the sweet corners that Tiara Rose was passionately talking about. There''s chocolate flowing from the big fountain and it''s just fun to watch. Next to it, the chef is baking crepes, so he also looks more temperamental than the main dish.


    I laugh unexpectedly and think Philine needs to eat later.


    "Dear Tiara Rose and His Royal Highness Aquasteed... it seems they are not here yet"


    Those two stand out just because they''re there, so I''m sure you''ll find out soon enough.


    I have no choice. Until Tiara Rose arrives, enjoy the ball. When Filine was so determined, a voice was called from behind.


    "Good evening, young lady"


    "!... Evening"


    Turning around, there was a man with honey-colored hair.


    Looks like you spoke up, trying to interact with Filine. At the lady''s grace, the man smiled gently.


    "That''s a very nice dress. ¡­ I''m so sorry I can''t get your name"


    "Thank you"


    "Do you usually attend nightclubs often?


    Is it the effect of wearing a mask that makes me friendly? I''m usually polite because I have an identity, but now I''m loose because I don''t know who I''m dealing with.


    As for Filine, though I''m happy because it''s easy.


    "No. It''s been a long time since I''ve been to a nightclub."


    "Did you...... if you don''t know, ask me anything"


    "Well, thank you. I was a little nervous, so I''m relieved you could say that."


    We can have a normal conversation, and Filine is relieved for a moment.


    It''s Tiara Rose watching you sneak out of the shadows. Isn''t that a peek? And I just want to get into it, but no one has noticed how it is.


    "Philine, I''m talking to a man!


    Besides, the atmosphere seems nice, Tiara Rose thinks. Unfortunately, I don''t know who I''m dealing with because I''m wearing a mask, but there won''t be a serious filine dealing with a weird guy.


    She''s just a Tiara Rose samurai, very polite. Manners should understand better than a warrant lady or son attending a nightclub every time.


    So if you malbehave in front of Filine, you won''t be able to deal with him.


    "All I have to do... is rendezvous with Master Aqua."


    Acari and Olivia will come to the venue as soon as the discipline is over.


    Aquasteed should be in charge of Elliot''s participation. If someone isn''t on the lookout, Elliot says, "Because it doesn''t suit me like this!!" because it''s going to come with outrageously plain clothes.


    I mean, Aquasteed is a supervisor and a lookout.


    "Even so, the cream colored dress is so cute. It was worth the effort!


    "Yeah, you''re so cute"


    "Huh...?


    As I looked satisfied at Filine''s dress, I heard a man not knowing from behind on the pretense.


    Turning hastily, one brown-skinned man with a mask stood.


    - Who?


    To the man who suddenly appeared, Tiara Rose gave an expression under her mask. Because there are no brown-skinned men in the aristocracy of Marine Forest, and I don''t remember inviting them.


    Sunburn - although it''s possible, it''s a little hard to think about.


    As Tiara Rose stares at the man, she smiles flutteringly.


    "Maybe he''s stuck with me? Lovely kitten."


    "Huh..."


    - Chara!!


    Thinking he would have winked absolutely under the mask, Tiara Rose pulled on the man''s behavior. At the same time, I thought you would love a masquerade or something...


    Golden hair, brown skin. Unfortunately, I can''t see my face, but I can only feel the charade from its atmosphere.


    "Stop," Tiara Rose says, indulging in a grand sigh.


    "This is a place to interact and get acquainted, not play numb. If you''re kidding, come home."


    "Wow, I''ve never been told that by a woman! Fine, you!


    "... were you listening to my words?


    To a man who didn''t seem to answer at all, Tiara Rose sighed deeply in her heart that she had been caught in every trouble -.

 95 5. Masquerade: Part I

    "Cold bareback is also fascinating. I can''t wait to be seen in your face with an innocent mask..."


    That said, the man''s fingertips creep Tiara Rose''s jaw.


    Immediately, Tiara Rose uses the fan she had and pays off the man''s hand. I suck at being a married woman and doing that to myself.


    "It is not appropriate for me to be so, because I have not put on flowers which are proof of my unmarriage. Of course, for unmarried women..."


    "Mmm, that''s tough. But I also think that''s a nice place... because I''m attracted to you?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I should have been strong and careful, but I haven''t enjoyed it at all.


    On the contrary, there''s nothing I can do about it because I even feel like I''m watching Tiara Rose more with a hot eye in her puckering appearance.


    Somehow, you should get away from this man.


    When Tiara Rose thinks so, the man says "Ah".


    "Pretty girl you cared about, now you''re being called out by another guy, right?


    "Huh?"


    That''s what they say, Tiara Rose also sees Filine.


    Sure, he''s separate from the gentle looking man we were talking about earlier.


    Soft warm suit with brown hair. At first glance, though I get the impression that it seems moderate - something''s wrong with Filine.


    It gives me a tingly vibe and I don''t like it. From being a little distant, a man may have been rude to Filine... but from here on out, I can''t even hear what he''s talking about.


    - I hope you don''t be rude to my maid!


    As I stared at him, the brown man, who had a little bit on Tiara Rose, grinned in a dull manner.


    "You''re quite obsessed with her, aren''t you? Your friend or something?


    "... Yep. We''ve been together ever since we were little, so I don''t want to be bothered by some weird guy. And to you, of course."


    "Really?"


    Then I glanced at the brown man, but he just grinned.


    "Then we need to get closer! You two can''t hear each other here, can you?


    That said, the brown man takes Tiara Rose''s hand and walks to the center of the party hall.


    "Hey! Get off me!"


    "Well, that''s good."


    Tiara Rose immediately protests, but the brown man doesn''t seem to care and is free to run.


    Sometimes it was a pair of men and women, nothing particularly noticeable. If Tiara Rose had been alone, she would have been heard from other men.


    In a way, maybe I should be a man (bug)...


    Going near Filine, I heard the conversation between the two of them.


    "Philine, thanks for the engagement reply"


    "Huh...? You, could it be Lucas?


    Listening to the conversation between the two, Tiara Rose opens her eyes. The brown man gives a voice similar to praise without thinking "hiu".


    - What''s this about?


    Philine was reluctant to get engaged, so there''s no way she''d respond with an acknowledgement. If it''s possible, does that mean my parents replied on their own......


    "I mean, that man... was it Master Lucas?


    I''m surprised about that.


    Because the Tiara Roses haven''t sent an invitation to Lucas Dunston. I call myself the brown man next to Tiara Rose right now, can anyone enter this masquerade......


    For once, if I knew you, I would have given you permission to enter, so I guess there was some kind of handover.


    "I say fianc¨¦e, but it sounds like the woman you''re obsessed with hates you."


    "... right"


    "Do you treat women poorly?


    If we don''t do it better, the brown man laughs.


    Tiara Rose returns her gaze to Filine.


    "Why... because Lucas should be in Lapis Lazuli, right? You said you came all the way to Marine Forest for today?


    "You''re going to meet Filine, so there''s no reason for this. Plus, Philine''s with me when I go home. Even your parents have permission."


    "- Huh!!"


    Apparently, a lot of things have been decided in Lucas.


    Hearing that, Tiara Rose gets angry. What an unsolicited man, he said. It''s also natural that Filine doesn''t like it.


    As Tiara Rose was trembling in anger, Filine moved.


    "Now that I know I have no choice but to talk to you, I beg your pardon"


    "Wait, Philine. You think you''re allowed to do that?


    When Filine walks out, Lucas also walks to follow it.


    I can''t run, but I have no heart or fast feet. Lucas walks beside him with a face that doesn''t eat, even though Filine shows so much of the color of rejection.


    "Hey, Philine. I wanted to dance with you because it was a night club."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - You''re a terrible person...


    Lucas is speaking to Filine, but has not responded.


    We managed to get out of the party hall, and the courtyard we reached was liberated. It''s winter so it''s a little cold, but I guess I decided it was better than being in the party hall with Lucas.


    Filine makes sure there''s no one around, then stops.


    "Come on, Lucas! I will not marry!!"


    "Don''t talk to me like that, Philine"


    "I can''t believe I... Huh!


    It''s a noble political marriage, isn''t it? But Lucas said so.


    Philine and I thought one day it would be something to get married. But I definitely don''t want to just marry Lucas.


    I know it''s possible that I won''t be happy because I''m in a political marriage, but I can''t be a millimeter happy in my marriage to Lucas. That''s all I don''t like.


    Nothing, you don''t have to be as happy as Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. But at the very least, I thought someone would take care of me...


    Tiara Rose looks at them as she tries to smudge her lips. Shouldn''t we go in between and have an arbitration, though I try to get close to thinking so - I can be stopped by the brown man who was following me.


    "What are you doing?"


    "Those two are nobles, aren''t they? Then you shouldn''t be in between. Or do you think you have any power? It doesn''t make sense if you don''t leave it to the right person."


    "Oh, that''s..."


    True argument, I think Tiara Rose.


    And being Queen of Marine Forest, I have power. If you order Lucas to leave, you can even kick him out of Marine Forest.


    But that won''t be a fundamental solution, and Philine will have a crack in her relationship with her parents.


    I had no choice but to see just a little more.


    Lucas also sighs deeply because he left the party hall and lost his eyes.


    "Filine."


    "Come to me."


    "I don''t like it!


    Lucas takes Philine''s hand because she''s a good girl. Looks like Filine tried to shake it off somewhere, but besides her thoughts, she seemed to have strong Lucas powers.


    I can''t shake it off, I flaunt my face.


    "Because I will never marry you! Get your hands off me!


    "I like Filine so much. Besides, I''ve already sent money to my parents, so you can''t shake my hand."


    "Oh no... Huh!


    Apparently, something was happening back there as I had expected.


    I can''t believe he wasn''t just accepting an engagement, he was already assisted with money. Philine feels miserable wondering if she can run away from Lucas anymore.


    I guess that''s what Lucas thought when he saw Filine lean over silently and accepted her engagement to herself. I stroke Filine''s head and say, "You just have to know," with my eyes from above.


    "Look, let''s go back inside and dance and go home. You should come to the mansion where I''m staying today."


    ".................. I don''t like it"


    "! Come on, Philine. Or can''t you just say it with your mouth?


    "...... Huh!?"


    Lucas raises the corner of his mouth and smiles disgustingly. I drew Filine toward me for a long time, hugging her and trying to take her lips away - Tiara Rose couldn''t bear to jump between them.


    "Come on!


    - I can''t forgive you for forcing me!


    "... Huh!


    Though it was Philine and Lucas who were suddenly surprised by the appearance of Tiara Rose, Philine was relieved to grasp Tiara Rose''s dress.


    He shook Lucas''s arm at the mercy of his strength and came under Tiara Rose.


    "Are you all right? I''m sorry, I should have checked with you more firmly in the entrance..."


    "No, never mind. It''s Lucas'' fault for coming on his own."


    Filine shook her head, saying it was never Tiara Rose''s fault.


    "You said I was talking to Philine because of you... would you please stay out of my way?


    "... talk, is it? I''ve been watching, but Philine doesn''t like it, does she?


    "That would be your mistake. Me and Filine are engaged. She was just a little lit up."


    He wears a mask, so Lucas doesn''t realize his opponent is Tiara Rose. For this reason, Lucas does not break the tone of his strong temper.


    Some sort of warrant lady... but I guess I''m looking down.


    If they found out she was the queen of this country, they would bluish immediately - but I''m sure Filine wouldn''t be happy if Tiara Rose used her power to help. If you bother me, you''ll blame yourself.


    Tiara Rose and Lucas stare at each other, "No," a cheerful voice goes in between.


    Of course, the Lord of that voice is a brown man.


    "Don''t you have that attitude towards these pretty kids?


    "... who. This is our problem, so I hope the outsiders don''t squeak out."


    I don''t need a reason to help a girl.


    The brown man shelters Tiara Rose and Filine on his back and confronts Lucas.


    Seeing that, Filine blued.


    Filine tells him in a fine voice that she wasn''t going to involve others to make things bigger.


    "Duh, what can I do..."


    "It''s okay, Philine. More than that, are you okay? Are you hurt?


    "Yes, I''m fine... inconvenience you both"


    "Don''t worry, it''s not a nuisance"


    Instead, I even think it''s chara about this much because the brown man bothered me.


    A little more, and I''m sure Aquasteed will come looking for you. So Tiara Rose didn''t think it would be a problem if she protected Filine.


    Fortunately, the brown man is on my side here...


    If that''s what you think, Lucas roughed up his voice.


    "Come out, you guys! I''m taking Philine home like this!!"


    "- Huh!?"


    In response to Lucas''s voice, several men came out. Apparently, Lucas hired an escort or something... but those eyes, they don''t seem to make sense to the discussion -.

 96 6. Masquerade: Part II

    "I don''t know what to say, it''s typical..."


    Seeing Lucas'' action, the brown man laughs as if he was frightened.


    It was five men who came out by the signal. I''m wearing a costume and a mask, so I don''t know my face.


    - Such a large number, how the hell did you break in?


    Whatever it takes, the Duke''s house security isn''t so sweet that it lets such a large number of people through. Even at the reception reception, if only a small number of people still give me this many unexpected numbers, I will be able to report to Tiara Rose or someone.


    ... but it''s not now to think about it.


    - For one thing, we need to do something about this situation.


    Lucas stands with his arms together and laughs with his nose. I offered my hand straight to Filine and grinned.


    "Come on, Philine. Neither do I mean to imitate it. Let''s go home together."


    "... Huh!


    In the dark, he said we could exercise our strength - it''s written on Lucas'' face.


    I''m telling you to come with me if you don''t want to hurt your dear friend. Filine bites her lips off at how Lucas looks like that.


    "No way, I never saw Lucas so stupid"


    "Philine doesn''t have to come with me."


    "Ti...... but"


    Tiara Rose calls out to scold Filine and tells her she doesn''t have to worry about anything. Instead, there''s no way I can forgive a man for doing this to my own pretty samurai.


    Tiara Rose is terribly angry, though not in her expression or attitude.


    That seemed to be the same for a brown man, with his eyes under his mask staring at the men.


    "... Apparently, you guys don''t want to give Philine away. Then you have no choice. Let''s have a look at your eyes that hurt a little!


    "- Huh!!"


    Five men came this way, signaling Lucas'' voice. Soon a brown man tried to stop it, going in front of the men - kicked it up thoughtfully as it was.


    "Wow!!"


    "There''s no way I''m gonna get hit by the one who doesn''t even know how to escort a girl!


    "... I can''t believe you''re tough on nobles... knights or something"


    "Come on,"


    First one, a man stretches out and falls to the ground.


    Seeing it, Lucas pounds his tongue and steps back... but the momentum of the brown man never stops. I quickly defeated the four remaining men.


    With so much handiness and strength, Tiara Rose speaks out of surprise.


    "Wow, you were strong...... thanks, that helped"


    "I don''t know who it is, but thank you"


    Shall we thank you both and then stick Lucas, the main culprit, out on security? Yes, Tiara Rose thinks, a brown man roughs up his voice as a hack.


    "Danger, behind -!"


    "Huh?"


    I didn''t think Lucas'' men were still lurking because I was alarmed that they would be okay anymore. Just from the part that hits the back of Tiara Rose and Filine...... two guys popped up.


    A brown man tries to help, but the distance is too far away to make it.


    "Dangerous!


    "Oh, Philine!!"


    Aggressively, Philine moves forward to shelter Tiara Rose.


    The knife the men have in their eyes, closing their eyes all the time - but realizing that nothing shocks them.


    "Oh, I''m glad I made it..."


    "What, Elliot...?


    "Yes. Are you all right? Filine."


    The man''s knife was being bounced off by Elliot''s sword.


    I can tell that he was sweating on his cheeks and rushed me this far.


    I smiled so that I could reach out and reassure Filine, who had put her sword in the sheath of her hips and sat back down. "It''s all right now," I told him, getting Filine up.


    - Good.


    Look at the two of you, Tiara Rose relieves herself. And a gentle voice arrived in my ear saying, "Sorry I''m late," from behind.


    It''s a low, sweet voice from someone I love about Tiara Rose.


    "Dear Aqua!


    "I''m glad Tiara''s okay. I can''t believe this is happening..."


    "... Yep"


    Aquasteed sees the fallen men and Lucas captured by the brown man. And soon, go under the brown man.


    "You protected us both, didn''t you? Thank you."


    "It''s a man''s job to protect women."


    "Let the man be taken to the guard immediately."


    For one thing, I''m glad I was able to clean it up before the noise got louder.


    As yet, the participants in the masquerade have not noticed this commotion. Tiara Rose thought about taking Filine to move the place and trying to speak up, but with Elliot on it, I can think of it.


    -... is that it? Could it be a little good vibe?


    Oh, my God, so much so.


    Aquasteed and the brown man, who were watching Tiara Rose, are also followed to shift their gaze to Filine and Elliot.


    The two are surrounded by a calm atmosphere and the hustle and bustle earlier seems to be a lie.


    "Thank you for your help. Best of all, I''m glad Dear Tiara Rose is not hurt..."


    "Yeah, but I''m glad Philine didn''t get hurt either"


    "Because Elliot helped me.... I apologize for the inconvenience caused by me"


    With that said, Filine looks at Lucas for a moment.


    But I can''t talk about something because I have a cloth on my mouth. And soon, he was taken by a security person who came.


    "That one... you knew Filine"


    "... Yes. He took the liberty of asking my parents for permission to engage me and came this far to bring me back."


    "! Such a discretionary..."


    Eliot is surprised that he didn''t know what was going on, to Philine, who told him pale. And I hold my hand tightly, and I regret myself for not being able to do anything.


    Seeing Elliot like that, Filine laughs dull.


    "You''re sweet, Elliot.... I had no choice, I''m sure. It''s embarrassing, because my house is not very wealthy."


    "So, an earlier nobleman..."


    "Yeah. Looks like you offered to help us with the money."


    Philine also had many brothers and would have liked money for her younger sisters. Think about it, you know, but it''s actually very hard to do something on your own.


    Seeing Philine laughing lonely, Elliot sips his saggy spit.


    "... philline"


    "Yes?"


    Philine tilts her neck wondering what happened to Elliot when she sees something to think of. Could it have confused me by telling me a little about the family situation?


    If so, I''m sorry, Philine thinks.


    "Elliot, don''t worry, I''ll be fine."


    "I care"


    I was instantly answered.


    "Eh..."


    With his eyes wide open, Filine looks at Elliot. Then he, too, was staring straight at Filine.


    Those eyes are serious and my face gets unwittingly hot.


    Elliot spins words in a small voice.


    "... I have no identity, so I don''t deserve to tell Philine anything"


    "Huh...?


    Elliot has no family name because he is a civilian. I am more familiar with the working pattern of Aquasteed''s proximity, and with aristocracy if I do poorly, than with aristocracy, but there is nothing that directly involves me there.


    I always have, and of course I always will, thought so.


    Blessed by her husband, Elliot has never considered herself unfettered to be a nobleman. On the contrary, I even thought I didn''t have to have a troublesome night club.


    "But now... I wish I were a nobleman. That way, we could have helped Filine in no time."


    "! But Elliot helped me. Coming out of a picture book, like a prince."


    Filine tells me she''s getting proper help, and she has nothing to care about. But Elliot doesn''t seem to be convinced and shakes his neck to the side.


    "Filine."


    "Yes, sir"


    "... If hope is to come true, will you wait until I get credit and noble status...?


    ¨D¨D


    Philine opens her eyes wide to Elliot''s words, which she did not anticipate.


    Few people without nobility confess to nobility... Even if it did, it would hardly ever come true.


    But in Elliot''s case, it''s a little special. Because there is a chance that he can get his place as a nobleman.


    Elliot, who is near Aquasteed, is a trustworthy man. If you can get some great handle on it, you''re likely to be in aristocratic status.


    Hardly, Philine''s heart accelerates. I can''t think of an answer to what a reply Philine should give me. Because I never thought I''d ever really get a confession, not a political marriage.


    Look at the ground, confused, Filine takes a small, deep breath before looking at Elliot. Just like earlier, he remains looking at Filine with serious eyes.


    Elliot is a colleague of Philine''s.


    Usually gentle, serene... but good at magic and swords and dependable. Although there are some bad spots for a while, I also know they are popular with royal castle maids that there are gaps and they are cute.


    "... thank you. I''m so glad to hear how Elliot feels."


    "Filine......"


    "Me, I''m waiting. Elliot will reach out to me again."


    "... yes, be sure!


    Tiara Rose breathed relieved when she saw Philine and Elliot smiling as relieved. I had no idea it would fit in such a tight clap......


    "Good."


    "Elliot, instead of working hard from now on,"


    "Right."


    Aquasteed smiles next to Tiara Rose to support her side. I want to help you somehow, but I can''t help but get Elliot to work on all this.


    One thing settled on this!


    Let''s go home - and Tiara Rose got her arms around her shoulder where she thought.


    "Yikes!


    "Kitten, by the way... this man, who?


    A brown man was coming nearby and asked Tiara Rose not to be funny. - but not the aquasteed who silently forgives it.


    "Do you want me not to touch my wife?


    "Yeah? I was married, hmm..."


    Aquasteed stares at the brown man and pays off his hand spinning over Tiara Rose''s shoulder. In a hurry for the two staring at each other, Tiara Rose said, "Because I''m married!," he told the brown man.

 97 7. The Dance of Two Kings

    "Married..."


    The brown man tells him to sigh and looks at Tiara Rose.


    The eyes under the mask, however, did not show the colour to give up, and Aquasteed let Tiara Rose hold her while alerting the brown man.


    "It''s not unusual to get a divorce now, is it? Hey, come to me."


    "Huh..."


    The cheeks of Tiara Rose tug on the brown man who said hello. I thought you could give it up if you were married, but I never thought you''d break up and tell me to come under.


    Nevertheless, Tiara Rose is not going under the brown man, and it is absolutely impossible to break up with Aquasteed.


    Tiara Rose immediately shook her head, showing her rejection and hiding behind Aquasteed.


    "Will you not frighten my wife?


    "I''m not going to scare you anything else...... I just want to be more intimate"


    Dust and a brown man laughs.


    Think about what happened to Tiara Rose to someone who doesn''t try to back down at all. I don''t want to get along, and I want you to stop kidding me because sometimes we have aquasteeds.


    Speaking of Aquasteed, he decides it''s just useless to deal with him, or he turns his hand around Tiara Rose''s hips and quietly tells her "Shall we go?"


    Sure, it''s not a good time to rub it with someone who attended the masquerade here. A brown man made a stop when he saw Tiara Rose nodded small.


    "Wait. Exactly. Isn''t that a little unconvincing?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When a brown man behaves in a way that puts his neck up, the ornament he was wearing makes a noise and shakes.


    Aquasteed, who was beside Tiara Rose, sighed small, "I told you it was my wife, didn''t I?," he advised again.


    But you were listening to that or you weren''t there - what returned was a suggestion.


    "Anyway, let''s have a fight. Well, don''t you think this masquerade could be exciting?


    "Competition?"


    Aquasteed looks suspicious and sees a brown man.


    "If I win, give me time to dictate kitten."


    "... there''s no way I''m going to take such a battle, is there?


    Aquasteed heartily thinks it''s a good joke. Before competing, I didn''t like the fact that they treated Tiara Rose like a prize.


    I have nothing more to talk about. That''s what I thought. I was about to walk away, and the sound of bread and slapping my hands sounded.


    "Competition! Isn''t that good!!"


    "... eh, Levi!?"


    I look at the butler who came out of nowhere and everyone who was on the spot opens their eyes.


    Behind it are also Olivia and Akali, who are shining their eyes. Whisper, "Villain Lady Event to be tackled by two handsome guys!? Can''t miss it!!" or something like that?


    "Dear Tiara, are you okay?


    "I was worried because you weren''t in the venue"


    "Thank you, both of you. I''m fine... what the hell."


    Is it the three of us who are in favor of the battle: Acari, Olivia and Levi?


    Aquasteed next door has a tired look at what''s going on.


    "Oh... those three seem to be hoping for a battle, right? Or do you think you can beat me and run?


    "Hey, don''t be ridiculous! I don''t know who you are, but there''s no way Master Aqua will lose! Of course I''ll take that fight!!"


    "Hey...... Huh!!"


    What disputed the provocative brown man''s words was the acari, neither party nor anything. However she seems to say, Tiara Rose gets an unexpected bitter laugh.


    A glimpse of Aquasteed revealed a deep sigh. And he groans that he has no choice, and then replies with an acknowledgement, "Okay."


    "That''s how it goes!"


    "So, what do we do with the contents of the battle?


    "... right, how''s the dance?


    "Dance..."


    Together, I am surprised by what I don''t think is a charming brown man''s suggestion. And at the same time, if Aquasteed is going to leap, he''s going to want to see it.


    I have never danced, although I have performed dances at nightclubs and such.


    - But can Master Aqua dance?


    Such a natural question passes through the back of Tiara Rose''s brain.


    But Aquasteed returns the word so as to overwhelm such a Tiara Rose concern.


    "Okay, that''s fine"


    We all went back to the party venue after hearing Aquasteed''s acknowledgement.


    ¡ô ¡ô ¡ô


    ''- Well, visitors. Let me do one more.''


    What flows to the party venue is the voice of Levi, who moderates it.


    Aquasteed and the brown men are getting ready, so now Tiara Rose, Acari, Olivia, Filine and Elliot are in the venue together.


    Filine comes beside Tiara Rose and peeks into her face worried.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, are you okay?


    "Yes, I have no problem... but I am worried about Master Aqua"


    "That''s right..."


    No way, who would have thought we would have a dance fight?


    Acari and Olivia seem very excited and excited to see what kind of dance the two of us will see.


    "It''s okay, if it''s Master Aquasteed"


    "Elliot!"


    Smiling to reassure you, Elliot tells you.


    Tiara Rose relieves herself a little that he says so in the vicinity that perhaps Aquasteed can dance some sort of dance.


    - But that man should be good at it too...


    Thinking about it, I don''t even think it''s safe.


    ''Come on, we''re ready. What you will all enjoy tonight is dancing. We know that victory and defeat are determined by the magnitude of your applause, so after the dance, please applaud''


    When Levy told him so, Aquasteed and the brown man came out with the mask on. But the costume is like an ethnic costume with multiple layers of cloth.


    The first thing to dance is like a brown man. One grace, then step forward, before you dance - and turn that gaze towards Tiara Rose for just a moment.


    I was winked with batin, over the mask, but I knew clearly.


    Flowing into a quiet venue is the sound of a light, but then bass drum. When you look at the person you are beating, you can see that he is a person with silver hair on his brown skin, probably with him.


    "Huh -?"


    Tiara Rose breathes when she sees a brown man dance away.


    It doesn''t look as challenging as it was earlier, and its appearance dancing is even beautiful to the fingertips. Each and every move is so polite that I accidentally fall in love with it.


    - Isn''t this the Sandrose witch dance?


    Sandrose is an empire in the desert.


    The dance of a brown man is very similar to the dance performed by that desert witch in divinity.


    Although Tiara Rose has never actually been to Sandrose either, traditional masterpieces of each country and so on are learned as knowledge.


    Of course, about the desert witch leaping dance.


    "Wow, wow. I thought you''d even do a charade dance, but it''s beautiful!


    "Yeah, yeah."


    Hammer at Shagu Akali, and Tiara Rose smiles as well.


    And at the same time, it''s about who that brown man is.


    - Only a woman can be a witch in the desert.


    That''s why men don''t dance that one. But there is only one exception. That''s if that brown man was the Emperor of Sandrose.


    In Sandrose, it is customary to give dance for the gods. It is a divinity inherently performed by desert witches, but the emperor can also dance.


    - That means that he is the Emperor of Sandrose!?


    If that''s true, it''s outrageous. The emperor of another country wants Tiara Rose, Queen of Marine Forest.


    I realize that fact, and I get a headache.


    Sounds like a proper bell, a brown man - perhaps, the dance of the Sandrose emperor Saravia is also in a good position.


    "... ah"


    Saravia dances like a manipulator of a cloth, and that flies through the universe like a wing. Quiet hands on the floor, pose to pray and end the show.


    "Wow, wow!


    "I''m surprised to see such a wonderful dance!


    Soon after the dance, more and more applause arose from the audience. Everyone praises and gives full applause.


    "... Ha, thank you"


    Saravia laughed as she breathed, bowing down and backing off. And it''s not like the next Aquasteed to dance.


    Though I thought it was not very popular to compete with Aquasteed in my area of expertise, Saravia couldn''t help but want Tiara Rose.


    "That kitten... seriously, let me take it from you?


    "There''s no way I''m gonna let that happen"


    "I heard the King of Marine Forest was moderate... but I hear he''s not"


    Aquasteed and Salavia, the only interaction we can hear is between the two of us. Saravia chuckled and dropped off Aquasteed walking to the center.


    "Yikes! Dear Tiara, it''s finally time for Aqua!!"


    "I wonder what kind of dance we''ll ever see. It wasn''t officially set up, so check it out!!"


    As soon as Aquasteed comes out, a yellow voice rises from the acari. Olivia is also excited to see what kind of dance she can see as she roughs her nose.


    Conversely, when it came to Tiara Rose, I was worried about Aquasteed and couldn''t help it. I can''t be calm if I see Saravia''s quiet and then existential dance.


    - Win, Master Aqua!


    Tiara Rose watches Aquasteed standing quietly as she feels like praying.


    Unlike Saravia earlier, Aquasteed has no sound.


    What the hell are you going to do, and the spectators watching you think, what you hear is the sound of the wind cutting.


    "Huh... Huh! Sword Dance!?"


    Using his love sword, Aquasteed dances in supple motion...... but the sword makes a noise as forcefully as possible. As Tiara Rose raised her voice, it was the sword dance that Aquasteed danced.


    Quiet but powerful, Tiara Rose wondered if Aquasteed could have done this as well.


    "I can''t believe I could have done this..."


    I fall in love, and Tiara Rose gives me an exclamation. Put your hand on your mouth and stare at Aquasteed in a nagging manner.


    He manipulates the sword as if it were part of him, like a martial arts god. If you hadn''t touched the sword from day to day, you wouldn''t be able to treat and dance like that in the end.


    - You could have told me.


    While Tiara Rose thinks so, she laughs at the same time, though in a way it seems like a surprise event.


    The audience has raised their voices and they are showing excitement. The strength would be better on Aquasteed than on Saravia, who danced quietly and beautifully.


    Finally, he dropped his mouth to the sword and finished the Aquasteed dance.


    In the moment, I am applauded for being woeful. That''s such a powerful applause that Saravia can''t even beat it, so much so that some of the inspiring, less grumpy courtiers.


    It was an unplanned battle, but it would definitely have been the best festivities as a masquerade.


    ''... Hmm. That''s a huge applause for both! It''s hard to put on A and B - so let''s call it a draw! Again, a big round of applause to both of you for dancing!!''


    Hearing Levi''s voice, an even louder applause engulfed the venue.


    And at the same time, eh draw!? and Tiara Rose is in a hurry. You said you were competing, but don''t you have to settle it?


    I''m in a hurry, but I''ve already declared it, so there''s nothing I can do.


    After the dance, Aquasteed and Saravia were in separate rooms for two.


    "Ah. You thought I''d definitely win, but I can''t believe the draw"


    "I won''t let you win that easily. I can''t believe you''re coming to my country... What do you mean?


    While removing the mask, Aquasteed tells me he hasn''t been contacted for a visit.


    Saravia chuckled and similarly unmasked and sat down on the couch. My beautiful eyes are narrowed and I say, "Nothing."


    "It''s not official business, okay. Besides, you didn''t mean to expose yourself, did you?


    "... is it courtesy of Sandrose to upset the place?


    "Ha, no way! But I really wanted that kid. I didn''t know you were the queen of this country."


    Aquasteed sighed several times today, hoping to get back to the country soon.

 98 8. Shopping for Tiara and Aqua

    When the masquerade was over and settled, Aquasteed wanted to spoil Tiara Rose. I must have gotten tired at the masquerade because the Emperor of Sandrose gave me a weird little tease.


    Nevertheless, Tiara Rose doesn''t get that sweet because she''s shy.


    Well, that''s cute... and Aquasteed thinks.


    Plus I don''t have much appetite, and I don''t get molested about anything. Except if it''s sweet, but that''s what Tiara Rose does to herself even if Aquasteed doesn''t prepare it.


    "Dear Aquasteed, what''s wrong with you?


    "Elliot..."


    Elliot came under Aquasteed wondering if he had any good ideas in the office.


    "No, I was going to spoil Tiara"


    "Master Tiara Rose? Oh, you''re always spoiling it."


    "It''s..."


    That''s true, though.


    "There was a lot going on at the masquerade, so I was hoping I could take my time."


    "Oh, I see"


    It was tough, and Elliot laughs bitterly.


    At the same time, Elliot is in the process of encouraging Philine to do more work so that she can propose properly. Aquasteed knows that too, so I''m going to ask Elliot if he has any big job.


    Elliot does his thinking trick, then slaps his hand with a pong.


    "Then why don''t you shop with me?


    "Shopping?"


    "Yes. After this, I asked Filine about the merchant coming under Master Tiara Rose. They also buy a few dresses, so I think it''s a good idea to give them ornaments or something."


    "Shopping¡­? Right, let''s try that."


    Tiara Rose usually nodded just fine because she doesn''t buy much stuff.


    And if I want to give it anyway, I want to align it from top to bottom. I also have a feeling it''s going to flow like a reward to Aquasteed in a way... but that would be it, this would be this.


    Under Tiara Rose, merchants and pastries often visit.


    They show us new products and sweets, and Tiara Rose and Filine have a good time shopping by considering what to buy together.


    Dresses and accessories are often decided by Filine, and Tiara Rose asks, "Are you that much?" and I often have my neck strapped to the side. It''s always been promised that Filine would say, "It''s not enough."


    Today we welcome the merchants in the guest room with Tiara Rose, but Filine made a stop before it started.


    "What''s going on? Filine."


    "His Majesty Aquasteed wants to be with you."


    "Really?


    Hearing Filine''s words, Tiara Rose makes her expression shine.


    Aquasteed is busy on the job, so he doesn''t often attend. Groaning, Tiara Rose invited in the Aquasteed that came.


    "I''m suddenly sorry, Tiara"


    "No. I am so happy to be able to shop with Master Aqua"


    "Really?"


    As Tiara Rose told her with a smile, Aquasteed also smiled softly.


    Filine set the place up for me, so Tiara Rose and Aquasteed sat on the couch side by side.


    The upcoming merchants are basically dealing with winter stuff.


    When the tea was ready, Filine retrieved a list of what Tiara Rose needed before calling the merchants into the room in turn.


    Then Aquasteed called Philine.


    "Filine, what are you planning to buy?


    "Yes. Today, the main thing is dresses and ornaments for winter. Then we''ll meet to design a dress for spring."


    "I see. Thanks"


    Of course, besides that, the pastries are coming to sell the sweets.


    "I have a lot of dresses for the winter, but I don''t have any new ones at all..."


    When it comes to Tiara Rose, she gets a bitter laugh at what Filine has told her. Some were given to Aquasteed, and the dress is like a mountain.


    Nevertheless, there is no way that Tiara Rose, the queen, will wear a dress around. As queen of the great Marine Forest, the people always ask for the dress they deserve, and as the state of the art of fashion, they also become the admirers of the ladies.


    "Now let''s look at dresses and ornaments first"


    With that said, Filine put the first merchant in the room.


    An old man dressed in a good suit, acting as a representative. Then there are a few needles.


    Say hello to the Tiara Roses before arranging the dresses.


    "Wow, they''re all adorable"


    "I like what the fur has on it. Looks good on Tiara."


    "Really?


    also points to what this fur has on it and Aquasteed looks like fun. There are several kinds of clothes, so I hope there are some, including different colors.


    Next to it, Filine takes a serious look at the design and glances at it. And I asked one of the needles about the dress.


    "Is this design up to date?


    "Of course it is. Because we are tailored to highlight the beauty of Tiara Rose."


    "I think this fur is good for Dear Tiara Rose''s hair color," the needle smiled and told him.


    Next to Tiara Rose and Aquasteed looking at the dress altogether, I''m going to buy a bunch of clothes that I''ve decided Philine needs. In addition to that, Tiara Rose will also be buying what she likes.


    - As always, you can count on Filine.


    On his own, Tiara Rose laughs bitterly that he can decide what to buy so pompous.


    "Now, five dresses and ornaments, please"


    "Oh, wait, Filine. I''ll buy this dress and fur with you."


    "Yes, sir."


    Aquasteed waits as he tries to finish purchasing the dress.


    I chose a pretty outdoor dress with a light water colour and pink ribbon, a headdress. Then it''s a fashionable fur with the type of animal heel that wraps around your neck.


    "What, Master Aqua?


    To a purchase I never thought I would, Tiara Rose sees Aquasteed.


    "A gift from me. Want me to put this on and date you?


    "Dating...... Huh! I''m so happy to know what to do."


    Upon hearing Aquasteed''s suggestion, Tiara Rose laughs as if to hang on.


    "Then I''ll coordinate Aqua''s clothes, won''t I?... okay?


    "Sure. Looking forward to it."


    "Yes."


    The two of us looked into our eyes and smiled, Tiara Rose leaned over to Aquasteed to sweeten them a little. Aquasteed loosened his cheek, glad to suggest a date at the same time.


    The purchase of the dress ended and the next merchant was called - Tiara Rose and the others blinked.


    "Huh... Your Majesty Saravia?


    "Hey, kitty. Good to see you again."


    It was Saravia, the emperor of Sandrose, who came into the guest room as a merchant.


    I competed with Aquasteed at the masquerade and the result is a draw. I thought we wouldn''t be involved with each other anymore because of that - apparently the idea was sweet.


    Aquasteed sighs and greets Saravia with a correct posture.


    "I didn''t think you could come to the Royal Castle as a merchant. If you need anything, you may contact me directly...?


    "No. This trip, it''s not official business, it''s patient. Your Majesty Aquasteed''s concern, I will make you feel at home."


    "Was it"


    Although Aquasteed and Saravia are grinning and smiling, I see a spark between them. Tiara Rose bothers me with what''s going on, but we won''t do anything that matters because we''re both at the top of the big country.


    "Well, that''s why. I came here today with a jewel that looks good on my kitten. Yes, Your Majesty Aquasteed. No need to talk."


    With that said, when Saravia rang her fingers, the silver-haired man who had refrained behind her took out the jewels and offered them to Tiara Rose and Aquasteed.


    "This is a desert gem I can take because of my country, Sandrose. Look, it''s beautiful red, it looks a lot like a kitten."


    "His Majesty Saravia. Will you stop calling my Lady Kitten?


    "Well, sweetie''s a kitten, isn''t she?"


    Although Aquasteed embarrasses Saravia, he doesn''t seem to be going to correct the way he calls it.


    And while doing some more, Aquasteed breathes when he sees the jewels Saravia has brought. Sure, that was a terribly beautiful gem.


    Is it about the size of a bee ball? Deep, close to black red. But there is a blur and light from the center of the gem. Apparently it has something magical on it, and it would be very valuable.


    "I''ve never seen such a beautiful gem"


    "Oh, right. Even Marine Forest won''t be able to unearth so many gems"


    Tiara Rose shines her eyes and Aquasteed agrees with it.


    Marine forests with lots of ore and so on, but you can only really see things with magic at their finest. Besides, nothing bigger than what Saravia brought is that way to be found.


    "Wouldn''t you? Sandrose is a good country, isn''t it? Kitten, didn''t you want to come?


    "! It won''t! Why would you say that!


    Praised, Saravia laughs a lot and tells Tiara Rose, "Be my queen". Of course, I immediately refuse such a thing.


    "I don''t like it. It''s just Aqua to me."


    "I can''t get along...... Well, that''s kind of cute."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Seeing Saravia wink properly, Tiara Rose grabs Aquasteed''s cuff and shakes her head silently.


    "Well, we''re ready for a long fight. Well, let''s go home today."


    "Eh."


    "Hmm? Do you miss me?


    "No! That gem, isn''t it pretty rare..."


    Tiara Rose panics because it is good that Saravia took a seat, but the gems he brought were too expensive.


    I can''t even just take it as a pong. But it''s not a good idea not to accept it even if you think about the diplomatic side if it''s a gift from the Emperor of Sandrose.


    Because Marine Forest gets accepted for rejecting Sandrose.


    Saravia laughs all the time when she sees Tiara Rose like that.


    "Oh, never mind. I just brought this to you because I wanted you to have it."


    "... Yes"


    To the words of Saravia, Tiara Rose nods and receives the red gem.


    Seeing it, Aquasteed graciously holds Tiara Rose and says her thoughts, "You''re beautiful," and turns her gaze to Saravia.


    "Thank you for the gift from Sandrose, a great nation, to Her Ladyship. From me too, I would like to make a gift to His Majesty and Her Highness the Queen of Saravia. Stay tuned."


    "... oh. I''m looking forward to it, Your Majesty."


    Listen to Aquasteed and Tiara Rose is relieved.


    I got a present and I was wondering what to do, but Aquasteed seems to be paying me back.


    And anyway, I thought it might be a good idea to add delicious sweets to the Lady of Saravia, Tiara Rose.

 99 9. Saravias Plan

    "Uh-huh."


    "It''s hard..."


    Tiara Rose tried to raise her voice and haunted her head from day to day. And hammering is a clam staying in Marine Forest.


    Tiara Rose has a lot to do because there has been a lot going on here lately.


    First and foremost, the matter of Saravia, the emperor of Sandrose.


    Since I have given Tiara Rose a gift, Aquasteed is supposed to give it back. Nevertheless, the destination is his wives. So Tiara Rose decided to pick a thank you item.


    And secondly, it''s about Filine.


    Elliot and I are not having any problems because it seems like it will continue to work, but I have to go back to my parents'' house once.


    Of course that''s not a problem, but because of this, Tiara Rose is going to go with me on the comeback as well. And, of course, Aquasteed.


    "It''s a gift for Sandrose, so is coral or pearl the specialty of Marine Forest the royal road"


    "Right. But that makes me feel like it''s happening..."


    "Sure, that''s not funny."


    It was Olivia who suggested it to me.


    I also thought about Tiara Rose, but I thought it was a gift from the royal family, so I thought I''d come up with something a little more creative.


    Hearing that, Akari also says "It''s hard" and sinks into the couch.


    Now there are three people, Tiara Rose, Acari and Olivia, in Tiara Rose''s private room. The three of us are having a cup of tea and the Philinees are having a blast.


    And there was wisdom in what to present to the Lady of Sandrose.


    "I wish His Majesty Saravia didn''t have to give a gift to Lady Tiara! Let''s make up our minds."


    "Right."


    Tiara Rose nods, even as she grins bitterly at the puffy acari.


    Nevertheless, it is not so easy to decide.


    However, I would like to give you something related to Marine Forest.


    - Then the content will be narrowed down.


    Corals, pearls and other things that can be taken at sea.


    Flowers, ores and other things that can be taken in mountains and forests.


    However, flowers, food, etc. would not be very good because of climate and travel distance problems.


    - And what you wanted was a Tiara Rose flower.


    But I''m deciding it''s hard to give you that.


    ... right.


    "How about using corals and pearls to give Tiara Rose flower heel accessories?


    "Nice! I agree!


    "I think I''m good, too. Because I haven''t made any accessories with Tiara Rose flower pieces yet"


    This would also allow us to incorporate the opinions of the Sandrose side, who said he wanted Tiara Rose flowers.


    All you have to do is ask the tailor you''re always asking for from the design. Now that this problem has been solved, I feel like I''ve got a pretty good chest grip.


    "And then there''s the love affair of the maid of the Villain Warrant! I thought I was just a mob when I was playing the game, but I never thought I''d have this much presence!!"


    "As for Filine Sanfist, very little information was disclosed."


    Akali is the real deal from here! But when I say that, I tell him I thought Filine was a mob. Sure, he wasn''t that impressive of a character in the game either.


    Olivia also says the character introduction to the offensive book was half a page, as she supports it.


    Squeeze the kobu all the way, "Fun!" cries Akali.


    Then there, there came the sound of a knock and Aquasteed.


    "Oh, you were here"


    "Dear Aqua!


    "Sorry to disturb you, Your Majesty Aquasteed"


    Acari smiles and Olivia gracefully thanks her. Aquasteed tells them to "take it easy" and sit next to Tiara Rose.


    Acari and Olivia sit side by side across the street.


    Tiara Rose promises to hold a design meeting with Aquasteed just now, telling her that she has decided on a gift for Sandrose.


    Looking smiling at it, Akali questioned Aquasteed straight.


    "So, Dear Aqua, how soon can Elliot be a nobleman?


    "All this, I don''t know. It''s not like Elliot just has to work hard."


    "Really?


    Aquasteed shook his head with a bitter smile at Akali, who says sorry.


    ''Cause it''s harder to give credit than when you''re peaceful and you have nothing.''


    "Oh, I see... It''s hard not to contribute to the country."


    Akari nods and squeals at me if it''s a bad time. And immediately slap your hand, and Tiara Rose blocks you from trying to say, "Then -".


    "Dear Akali, you can''t be nasty."


    "Huh. I was hoping I could make a little case and get Elliot to solve it."


    "I don''t want to..."


    Let me do it. And I''m going to accidentally get into it.


    Philine and Elliot aren''t happy to do that, and most importantly, it''s obnoxious.


    Aquasteed sighs softly when he sees Tiara Rose paying attention. The conversation then turns to the content of going to Lapis Lazuli in order to go to Filine''s home.


    Because of this, Akali said he was leaving at the same time.


    "I would also like to say hello to Filine''s home. Please come to my home with Aqua."


    "Please."


    "Oh, I want to stay at Dear Tiara''s house too!


    "I can''t."


    Akali raises his hand and claims yes, but Tiara Rose waves her head and dismisses.


    "Yeah, yeah, why not..."


    "Have you forgotten what you did to me? Your father can''t possibly allow you to stay with Akali."


    "Dear Acari... I forgot, don''t look like"


    During the Golden Wheel, his father would never forgive the acari.


    Though, I know you''re getting along with Tiara Rose, so it''s gloomy on the surface.


    "Then I will give up Master Tiara''s house. But if your father''s still mad, I''d like to go apologize soon."


    "Thank you, Dear Acari"


    I don''t know if that will melt my father''s anger, but I''m sure sincerity will pass on. Thinking about it makes me feel a little dusty.


    Olivia also makes sure to keep an eye on Akali, and everyone thinks it should work out.


    "All you have to do is have a problem with Filine''s house. I know it''s hard to say from Philine, but I''m worried about the funding... and I''m glad Elliot''s helping me with the aid, too."


    Tiara Rose hears that Filine''s salary sends a considerable amount to her parents'' house.


    When I told him that, Aquasteed raised his voice "Oh".


    "There will be nothing wrong with that. Elliot is more lucrative than a bad aristocrat for money."


    "What!!"


    There are also many allowances and so on, and Elliot''s salary is quite high.


    And I''m busy at work, and I barely have time to spend my money. So, actually, yeah, it looks pretty nostalgic.


    Filine was talking about the possibility of abandoning the aristocracy. That means you don''t have to get aristocracy, or Elliot as a civilian.


    "Maybe we can still get married like this?


    "If you''re certainly not obsessed with nobility, maybe that''s it too"


    When Tiara Rose tells her, she decides that Olivia has one too.


    I can''t do it when I''m a Duke''s wife, like Olivia, but Philine, the invisible baron ahead, has no problem. I mean, I don''t necessarily have a good daughter-in-law who does.


    But it''s Aquasteed who stops at it.


    "Because Elliot has told me he''s going to be a nobleman... he probably won''t do anything to withdraw"


    "Sure..."


    If all you need is money, get married right away! Oh, my God, there''s no way Elliot can do that. Serious and sincere, he won''t withdraw what he said.


    I thought they were going to stick together, but it still looks like a long way to go......


    "Well, now the job is a paragraph."


    Elliot stretches all the way out and cleans up Aquasteed''s office, where no one else is. All you have to do is lock your room and exit, and you''re done for the day.


    After the office, walk through the windy courtyard at night to your own room.


    Elliott, near Aquasteed, is given a room on the Royal Castle property. If you need anything, you can rush right away, and the dining room at Royal Castle is pretty convenient.


    "Hmm?"


    Feeling some sign on the pretend, Elliot stops.


    No way. Intruder into the royal castle? I thought so and looked around - it was Saravia who showed up from behind the building.


    "Hey, nice night."


    "Your Majesty Saravia......! Why are you in such a place..."


    Elliot is confused, especially since he''s not inviting you to the royal castle. But don''t be disrespectful to the emperors of other countries, so lower your hips and respond.


    "Is there something I can help you with? If it was a retraction for Master Aquasteed..."


    "No, I''m here for you today."


    "To me......?


    To words that I didn''t anticipate, Elliot puts his thoughts through his brain as to what they mean. You can''t make some inadvertent remarks here and bother Aquasteed.


    Chill out what the hell they say.


    "Hey, Elliot. I''ll give you your nobility."


    "Eh -"


    To the words thrown lightly, Elliot doubts his ears inadvertently if he hears them.


    "Look, that way you can pick her up, right? That''s how I like to support the two of you."


    "Your Majesty Saravia......"


    Is that word like a magical nectar to Elliot today?


    Saravia''s words erode Elliot so that he can come together. Saravia rocks at Elliot''s heart wanting to pick him up early.


    But those words don''t reach Elliot.


    "... just how your Majesty Saravia feels, I will have it. I am proud to be near Aquasteed."


    "Right, too bad"


    "If you''re going home, we''ll arrange a carriage..."


    "No, that''s not necessary. I''m keeping you waiting too. The carriage has been arranged."


    Hearing Saravia''s words, Elliot nods so much that it becomes.


    Then he sent Saravia to the place where the carriage was provided and dropped her off. After he can''t see the carriage, Elliot holds on to his crisp, painful stomach.


    "Huh - it didn''t work out"


    "It''s not going to be that easy. Taking in the king''s side is not a living thing..."


    Sigh to Saravia, who can nod in the carriage, so that Izet, close to him, can open up.


    "Didn''t I tell you I couldn''t do it from the start"


    "I hate giving up before I do it."


    "Totally......"


    Even if you don''t think you can do it, it''s the Saravian style that I''ll try for now. If you couldn''t, you could change the operation and try again next time.


    Unless I give up, can I have the possibility?


    "When I made Elliot a nobleman, I wanted to thank you, Kitten... for getting along with Tiara Rose."


    "That''s what I can''t do. I mean, I don''t think she''ll leave Her Majesty the Aquasteed?


    "Isette''s got a hard head. If you fall in love, you''ll come to me."


    "Oh, it''s time to get to the inn"


    "Hey, don''t ignore me."


    Were you tired of talking about your husband, Yzette replied lightly and then quietly told him to "take the rest of the day off".

 100 10. Long Time Homecoming

    "I''m sorry that Master Tiara Rose has also been involved in my personal homecoming..."


    "It''s okay, Philine. Never mind?


    "Dear Tiara Rose...... thank you"


    Tiara Rose smiles at Philine, who sneers.


    Now, we''re in a carriage headed for Lapis Lazuli.


    Focusing on Tiara Rose, Philine sits next to her left and Akali sits to her right. Across the street, there are two of them, Aquasteed and Elliot.


    "Looks like we''re all traveling together, that''s good! So much fun!


    The clams are gaining momentum that even the flowers seem to fly, and I would be happy to show them to a delicious sweet shop made of lapis lazuli.


    I couldn''t help but notice that Tiara Rose accidentally ate it.


    "I know it''s fun, but you get tired of shagging from the start, don''t you?


    Acari laughs as Tiara Rose tells her with a bitter smile.


    "Oh no, Master Tiara. I''m not that old yet!"


    "Well, so is that..."


    I tend to forget that it''s a good year to convert from previous life, but Tiara Rose is nineteen. I remember living plain long enough to occasionally become an old thought.


    At the same time, Akali was always a tiara rose who I also think was healthy and envious.


    The journey by carriage went well and we arrived at Lapis Lazuli without anything.


    Acari returns to the royal castle, and the Tiara Roses to their parents, the Clamenthir family.


    Going to the mansion, his father came to the entrance hall with momentum before the butler could greet him.


    "Tiara, I missed you ~!!"


    "Father, it''s been a while. Looking good, good."


    "Oh. Me and my mother are fine. Your Majesty Aquasteed seems well and above all."


    My father, Schnaus, greets Aquasteed after embracing Tiara Rose.


    Isn''t that the opposite order? And I just want to get the penetration in, but I can''t help it because this father is my daughter, Tiara Rose Love.


    Aquasteed is more than happy because he prefers Schnaus for his daughter.


    "Yes, the Marquis Clamenteal seems to be doing well and relieved"


    "I''m still active. You can''t be resting for the good of your country."


    "Lapis lazuli would be cheap with a marquis."


    Iltiana, Tiara Rose''s mother, turns up from the back as she is having an unflattering chat. She looks like Tiara Rose, a woman with a relaxed and gentle atmosphere.


    "Welcome back, Tiara. Thank you, Your Majesty Aquasteed, for taking your feet far away. Please, take your time."


    "I''m back now. Mother."


    "It''s been a while. For a short time, but I''ll take care of you."


    Has it been more or less two years since I was reunited with my parents?


    I am relieved and relieved that the two of you are well.


    At the end of the whole greeting, Philine and Elliot came in. He asked his servant for the luggage he was carrying in the carriage, and he made arrangements for me.


    Schnaus and Irtiana speak out gladly when they find Filine. Philine is as important to both of us as her daughter because she has been a Tiara Rose samurai since she was a young girl.


    "I''m glad Philine looks good too"


    "Welcome back, Philine"


    "Sir, ma''am, we''re out of time. We look forward to seeing you."


    Philine smiles and exchanges greetings.


    Iltiana went all the way to Philine and said, "Are you okay?" and peek into his face a little worried. This time, I tell her that I''m going to Filine''s home together with the reason.


    "Ma''am, thank you for your concern. Dear Tiara Rose, be equally worried... I am happy."


    "Me, Tiara Rose and, of course, Schnaus, are on Philine''s side. Talk to me whenever you need anything."


    "Yes."


    Listening to Irtiana''s words, Filine brings tears to her eyes. I''m so glad you''re so important to me.


    Elliot then greets again as a side of Aquasteed as well. I''ve had several face-to-face conversations with Schnaus, but I''ve never talked to Irtiana.


    "He''s a very serious young man. Your Majesty Aquasteed has a good man, as long as you envy him."


    "I''m Iltiana, mother of Tiara Rose. Please take your time."


    "Thank you. We are close to Master Aquasteed, Elliot."


    Everyone''s greetings are over at the front door, and Tiara Rose laughs.


    Normally, I do it in the reception room or somewhere, but I can''t help but do it this time. Schnaus missed Tiara Rose and couldn''t help but see her, so she couldn''t wait in the reception room for the adults.


    The last time I came to Lapis Lazuli, I had planned to come to my parents'' house, but I couldn''t, so Schnaus couldn''t wait any longer.


    Irtiana smiles at Schnaus, who is shaking, but urges the Tiara Roses to go to her room and slow down a little.


    "Fun story, let me hear it at dinner. Let me show you to your room, as you will also have the luggage you have brought."


    "Yes, let me do that. May I use my own room?"


    "Absolutely. Tiara Rose''s room is always ready for use, so leave it at liberty."


    Only the luggage was decided to be carried by the maid, and Tiara Rose takes Aquasteed to her room. Filine and Elliot each have their own guest rooms available, so they each take a break for a while.


    It''s been a long time since I''ve been in my own room, and Tiara Rose just glances around inside.


    "What''s up, Tiara?"


    "I kind of miss it. Oh, the doll is still decorated...!


    Tiara Rose narrows her eyes as she looks at the rabbit stuffed animal on the chest. Little things, it''s a birthday present my father gave me. It''s got a red check ribbon wrapped around it and it''s adorable.


    Though I''m a little embarrassed to think you''re still decorating your doll.


    "Pretty and nice. When I get home, should I give Tiara a doll, too?


    "Oh, I''m not such a child anymore..."


    "Really? If I leave it in bed, I''ll hug it and sleep. It''s cute though"


    Tiara Rose blushes to the aquasteed she tells with a dull laugh.


    But soon, Aquasteed said, "But."


    "And then you can''t because I can''t hug you and sleep"


    "Ah, Master Aqua! Already..."


    I wonder what to say with a strange face...... and Tiara Rose shudders. But at the same time I''m happy and I don''t know what to argue with. No, it would be appropriate to say that we cannot do it in this case.


    Tiara Rose opens the window as she looks up to her hot cheeks with her hands. Then Aquasteed saw Tiara Rose saying "I miss you".


    The window now opened by Tiara Rose is attached to the balcony.


    Before, still before the two of us got engaged. Aquasteed once made contact through this window to meet Tiara Rose.


    I was shown a fairy star festival with the power of Aquasteed and had tea on the balcony. Now that I remember it, I miss it so much.


    "Dear Aqua, why don''t you join us for tea because of this? On the balcony, of course."


    "That''s nice."


    Tiara Rose prepared a teapot and stepped out the window onto the balcony just bent over the corner. Low tables and sofas are also installed from the outside in places that are blind spots.


    This is Tiara Rose''s favorite place to read, eat sweets, and relax.


    Even as the two of us try to sit side by side on the couch, the cold wind strokes their cheeks.


    Snow is the only thing that hasn''t fallen, but the season is winter. Tea with it may have been reckless, Tiara Rose sees Aquasteed.


    "It''s colder out there than I thought"


    Nevertheless, because of this, I sit on the couch.


    Aquasteed also sat on the side first as Tiara Rose sat down. But I''m worried Tiara Rose will catch a cold in the cold.


    It''s a dress for winter, so some cold surfaces would be considered, but it would be hard outside without a coat.


    My breath is white.


    Aquasteed takes Tiara Rose''s hand and puts his face to the cold.


    "It''s still right outside, but it''s so cold..."


    "Master Aqua''s hands are warm."


    "Is it because of the high temperature? You don''t get too cold on your hands and feet."


    Hearing that, I think Tiara Rose is purely envious.


    Because toes are particularly cold, it always gets cold in winter. I know it''s cold-hearted as it is vulgar, but I always cover it with warm drinks, etc.


    So winter makes it an excuse to touch Aquasteed''s hands all the time here.


    "It''s warm, so I want to touch it all the time"


    Aquasteed also chuckles as Tiara Rose touches her, laughing all the time. Make sure your fingers tangle with each other, and Aquasteed plays with Tiara Rose''s hands instead.


    "When it gets cold, won''t you touch me?


    "Huh..."


    "I''ve always wanted to touch Tiara without that kind of relationship."


    "~ ~ ~ ~!!"


    I shrink in embarrassment at Aquasteed''s relentless sweet dialogue.


    Of course, Tiara Rose. Because, for no reason, anytime every day, I want to be touching Aquasteed, and I would be happy to be touched.


    "Even I am! Yikes!!"


    Tiara Rose affirms Aquasteed''s words and jumps possumly into its arms. Gyu ~ Hold me tight and relieve me of the warmth of Aquasteed.


    - Master Aqua, it''s muddy.


    I think I can''t leave this once I taste it.


    - Oh, well. Because I don''t get much of a hug outside.


    I''m usually in a warm room, so I rarely flirt outside. Even if I did, it would be enough to hold hands.


    "... Master Aqua is warm and I don''t want to let her go"


    "Tiara,... oh well"


    Hearing Tiara Rose''s words, Aquasteed is about to blow out unexpectedly. Tiara Rose, who endures it all the time and holds onto herself, hugs it back to wrap it up.


    And I do think this should be warm.


    Aquasteed sees Tiara Rose holding onto herself and lets her sit on her lap, trying to hold her up a bit as she does.


    "Yikes! Master Aqua, suddenly you don''t lift it."


    "-"


    Tiara Rose opened her mouth to argue, but it was all blocked by Aquasteed before she could finish saying it.


    She mouths me gently and kisses me to stumble over and over again. Tiara Rose''s shoulders sway to a small lip sound, slightly apart, gazing at each other.


    A delightful golden colour is watching Tiara Rose.


    When Tiara Rose closed her eyes shyly, her lips overlapped again. The air outside is cold, but each other''s exhales are terribly hot.


    Kissing for a while, Tiara Rose breathes like she wants oxygen.


    "Ha... ha ha... Dear Aqua, here¡­ outside"


    "Tiara, what more... was I forced to do?


    "Oh, that''s...!!"


    Suddenly he wanted to say no kissing outside, but Aquasteed smiled that Tiara Rose''s words were not convincing at all.

 101 11. Filines Home

    I offer you a rose that I can''t even hold with my hands, and I offer you my love.


    It was already hard to get such a big round of red roses this winter period. But to the person who prepared it for me...... I''m sure I''ll fall in love.


    No, maybe it''s already falling.


    "Philine, I love you. Come on, get married now!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    But the rose freezes under Philine''s gaze.


    "I never wanted to see you again..."


    Filine looked at Lucas offering a rose in front of her, as if to see garbage.


    Going back in time, an hour ago...


    Today, the day after returning to Tiara Rose''s home, we were to go to Filine''s home without much rest. It''s Philine''s hope that she''ll just finish what she doesn''t like.


    That''s right, Aquasteed, the king of neighboring Marine Forest, can''t go with us, so we talked about going to the Sanfist family, my parents'' home with Tiara Rose and Filine.


    There''s a carriage available in the entrance hall, and we''re just heading out.


    But Aquasteed sees Tiara Rose looking worried somewhere.


    Now I''m worried sick about Schnaus telling me to go with him, but I feel the same way as Aquasteed.


    Think about what you''re going to do and speak to the side you were holding back.


    "Elliot."


    "Yes?"


    What''s wrong, sir? To Elliot, who came to tell him so, Aquasteed shows Tiara Rose with his gaze.


    "Come with me."


    "Huh? But that''s..."


    "I have no problem with one. But I''m worried about Tiara. Besides, isn''t Elliot worried about Philine, either?


    So Elliot laughs bitterly at Aquasteed telling him to come. I can leave my husband alone, but I''m glad he cared.


    Elliot nodded a little worried and admitted she would go with him.


    "Okay. But please refrain from acting alone."


    "Oh, I know.... Tiara, take Elliot with you."


    "Dear Aqua!


    To his sudden offer, Tiara Rose acknowledges with surprise and a smile.


    "Thank you for your concern, Master Aqua. Say hello to Philine, too, Elliot."


    "Tiara must not be impotent either. If you need anything, take it home and talk to me."


    "Yes, I hope I can help"


    Aquasteed gives Tiara Rose a push and Elliot nods a little less confident.


    Although my husband, Aquasteed, often accompanies me to the nobleman''s mansion, I never thought I would go to the home of a woman with less than a lover by making a confession.


    Of course, I won''t spare your cooperation if I can help you worry.


    Elliot squeezes her attention in an effort to be aware that there is no coarse phase.


    Philine, watching that exchange next door, chuckles.


    "My house is not a place to be nervous. You may not be able to be very welcoming, but take your time."


    "Thank you"


    Elliot thanked Philine for her words and smiled a little relieved.


    Thus Tiara Rose and Philine and Elliot headed to Philine''s home as they headed to Aquasteed.


    And the story goes back to the beginning.


    Lucas with glittering eyes and Philine with eyes as cold as an ice queen.


    The temperature difference between the two is too intense.


    - Or why is Master Lucas here?


    Noisy at a masquerade hosted by Tiara Rose and forced to return to Lapis Lazuli. And I gave a warning from Marine Forest to stay away from Filine... apparently it didn''t make sense.


    Tiara Rose sighs small.


    There is no clearer law in this world than Japan. I have an identity system in the first place, and not everything can be equal. Of course, I''m not going to forgive anyone for committing a crime, though.


    If it was Marine Forest, Lucas might have taken care to stay away from Filine, but there''s nothing he can do to get back to his country.


    Tiara Rose walks up to next to Filine and sees Lucas with a troubled look.


    "Dear Lucas. Don''t put my maid in too much trouble. Plus, at the garden tip in front of the front door... Oh, my God. Aren''t you a little under-considered?


    "Ah...... Dear Tiara Rose!?"


    Why here, to Lucas with the expression, Tiara Rose does not mind continuing the words.


    "Philine is my precious lady. Wouldn''t it be weird to come say hello with me on the way home?


    "That may be so... isn''t Tiara Rose now the queen of Marine Forest? I can''t believe that''s bothering to say hello."


    Tiara Rose gets angry at what Lucas says that looks down on Filine''s position, the baron''s house. You can''t even be fond of being told that way about your precious samurai.


    Well, I never liked it from the beginning.


    Filine ignores Lucas and speaks to Tiara Rose and Elliot.


    "In the meantime, go inside. My father must be here today."


    "Yes. Thank you, Philine"


    When the three of them try to get inside, "Wait!!" Lucas roughs up his voice.


    "Philine, let''s get married. I''m ready for a wedding dress."


    What the hell is this guy talking about - and I think the Tiara Roses.


    If it is indeed a political marriage between nobles, sometimes the houses prepare each other. But Filine told him many times she didn''t like it, and he hasn''t accepted it.


    Sometimes you may not be able to resist if you are a powerless nobleman''s courtier, but Filine is a Tiara Rose maid. In a way, he is in a better position than his father, Baron Sanfist.


    Filine sighed loudly and told her without breaking her unpleasant posture.


    "I have refused that many times, though?


    "Philine, oh well. You were embarrassed because there were other people. I''m sorry I took you so seriously."


    "No, sir."


    Tiara Rose thinks this doesn''t look like a cut, and Baron Sunfist from the back of the mansion says, "What''s all the fuss?," he said.


    I can''t believe the actors are on the doorstep.


    "What the hell is going on!... Philine, are you back? Dear Lucas, I thought you were waiting in the reception room - Dear Tiara Rose!?"


    "Long time no see, Baron Sunfist"


    "I apologize for taking your feet. Filine takes care of you."


    Baron Sunfist, who looked around at them all, looks at Tiara Rose and hurries to thank him.


    I can tell you how low your head is and how low your hips are.


    "No, because I am always better helped by Philine"


    "If it seems to be helping, I hope so. Come on, come here."


    "Thanks"


    Baron Sanfist invites Tiara Rose into the mansion. And along the way, I notice Elliot with me.


    "What about this one?


    "He is Elliot, near His Majesty the Aquasteed. I am here today to replace His Majesty, who cannot come with me."


    "It''s Elliot. Best regards,"


    When Tiara Rose introduced Elliot, Baron Sunfist nodded so much that he would be. And smile and shake hands, saying hello.


    "I can''t offer you much hospitality, but please take your time"


    "Thank you"


    I thought it had become a little calm, but I saw Lucas stare at Elliot. Apparently, Elliot, who was near Filine, didn''t care.


    "Philine is going to marry me, so stay away from other men so inadvertently"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Even listening to Lucas, Philine probably decided that any further conversation would be pointless.


    Try to turn away and stand right between Tiara Rose and Elliot.


    It''s Baron Sunfist who panics when he sees it.


    Even if the title is a nobleman above his own house, he also receives financial assistance.


    I guess to be honest, I don''t really want to spoil my mood.


    "Philine, I do not take such an attitude. Lucas thinks a lot about our home."


    "That''s right, Filine. Besides, I could make Filine the happiest bride in the world!


    Where the hell does such confidence come from?


    Just as Lucas trembles at Philine''s gaze like absolute zero degrees.


    "Philine?... You wouldn''t have been such a cold looking kid, would you?


    Show me your pretty smile, Lucas tells me.


    But there can''t be a smile on Filine either.


    Baron Sanfist also speaks in a hurry to Filine, who looks like that.


    "Philine would have always been a good girl, wouldn''t she? Speak too much of me, don''t bother me. Right?"


    Apparently, Filine gives up that her father is totally on Lucas'' side.


    For a long time, this father could never turn against someone in a better position than himself. Always ask about the other person''s complexion and receive one reply even under conditions that put me at a disadvantage.


    I can''t say no.


    That''s why I also nod at the marriage story between Filine and Lucas.


    But Philine also knows that this marriage has the advantage of money.


    If Filine marries Lucas, she''ll be able to protect her young sisters in a financial sense, and she won''t have to make them feel hard.


    However, I didn''t like Lucas even considering its merits.


    I can''t help it, I''m disgusted.


    Filine turns her gaze to Lucas with her father.


    "That''s enough. My parents decide my life on their own, and you persevere even though you say you don''t like it..."


    "Filine......"


    I found myself seriously angry at that quiet Filine voice.


    Usually, you can say that Filine seldom gets angry for real.


    If anything happens to Tiara Rose, she manifests anger, but that emotion doesn''t often come on the table when it comes to her.


    - What can I do, I''m seriously mad!


    Absolutely, Tiara Rose thinks we have to fix this and go home.


    Even though Filine seems to be spicy so far, we''ll have a discussion there and bring it over next time... Oh, my God, no.


    But Filine would not want to use her position as Queen of Tiara Rose and force her to settle on this story.


    So what do I do? Tiara Rose thinks, but without waiting in between, Filine showed the move.


    Philine pulls Elliot''s arm a lot.


    And clearly, I told him.


    "This is my fianc¨¦e!

 102 12. Elliots Feelings

    Everyone opened their eyes to surprise at the bomb statement Philine told them that Elliot was their fianc¨¦e. ''Cause I never thought she''d say that.


    But Elliot will be the one most surprised.


    It''s very easy to see that you have eyes wide open and are upset with your mouth open.


    "Oh, uh, Philine?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Perplexed Elliot calls Philine''s name, but Philine can put her strength into her arm grabbing hand. If you look closely, it looks like you''re trembling in small pieces, and Elliot gets annoyed.


    My parents told me about Lucas and I''m having a hard time... but don''t be on my side here right now. What are you gonna do?


    Elliot takes Philine''s hand himself and turns to Baron Sunfist.


    "I admire Master Filine.... youngsters like me will think, but there is no lie or falsehood in this feeling"


    "Elliot......"


    Neither did she blame herself for acting on her own, but Elliot decided to pretend during this moment. Trying to protect Filine with everything she can.


    Baron Sunfist was stunned for awhile, but soon became annoyed. And after letting his gaze get a little lost, that gaze caught Philine first.


    Unlike his earlier attitude of strength, Filine can be seen making him look anxious somewhere. But the hand still grabbed Elliot and told Baron Sanfist that he trusted him.


    I can''t believe my own daughter is so firm at some point, and also brings her fianc¨¦e... I kind of miss her when I think about it that way.


    "You said, Lord Elliot. Hey, Philine''s not much of a distraction to people, so I''m very surprised."


    "No......"


    "If it were near His Majesty Aquasteed''s side, he would have a solid identity and nothing wrong with it. Besides, Filine is so passionate about you. I can''t object to that."


    Elliot and Philine are surprised by Baron Sunfist smiling kindly.


    "Baron Sunfist......"


    "Father..."


    I just thought you''d give up on Elliot and be told to marry Lucas right away. And yet, I''ve admitted so much about Elliot.


    Tiara Rose, who was watching the exchange, also startles me. However, I am relieved when it comes to things that are likely to fit safely round.


    of, but it couldn''t have ended so easily.


    "Don''t be ridiculous! Philine is my fianc¨¦e! Even wedding dresses are available! I''m giving you the money!!"


    "Oh, that''s... But do I also want to learn how Philine feels¡­"


    Lucas yells and Baron Sunfist argues with all his might but gradually gets smaller. It was impossible for him, who was usually passive, to thrust Lucas the mighty.


    Usually, I''m sure Lucas would have pushed me down like this.


    But now, there''s Elliot.


    "Master Lucas''s thoughts may be the most, but please know how Philine feels"


    "... don''t be ridiculous, for the sake of the civilians!! If you want to destroy so much of my engagement with Philine, let me ask you to pay the money and compensation I paid to the Sunfist family! That way, I''ll pull my hand!


    "Hey Lucas, what are you saying............!!"


    When Elliot gave Lucas his opinion, he turned upside down and became angry as the fire raged. Do you know how much I love Filine!? -.


    Without hiding his frustrating appearance, Lucas showed the sleigh he thought, "Right..." and offered Elliot by running a pen on the paper he had removed from his inner pocket.


    "Here, pay for this! If you do, I''ll free Filine from me! Shit! I don''t think you can do it!!"


    With a slight laugh, Lucas sees Elliot receive the paper.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Hey, this amount!


    Peek at Elliot''s received paper, and Filine blues her face. Of course it''s not the amount Philine can pay, but it wouldn''t be possible for Elliot, who doesn''t have a family name, to pay.


    Filine bites her lips so hard that she distorts her expression that she sucks. A little thought would have shown Lucas going upside down and yelling and scattering.


    I can only regret the fact that I''ve involved a gentle Elliot.


    "It''s okay, Philine. Don''t cry."


    "I can''t believe I''m crying..."


    "But I''m going to cry. It suits Filine because she smiles."


    So smile, Elliot smiles at Filine.


    "Then we will pay you this amount immediately"


    Elliot has a cool face and writes something on the paper and envelope he had in his inner pocket. Easily stop the seal, turn it into a single letter and enchant it.


    "Wingspan, fly through the clouds!


    The letter then instantly turned the figure into a bird. I feathered my big wings and flew away.


    Now the person who received the letter will go through the payment process even soon. If Elliot says something and she says she stopped after all, it''s not a hoard.


    So I hit the lead in a way.


    "Hey, what... such advanced magic, I can''t even use it..."


    Impossible, Lucas shakes his head.


    To him like that, Elliot grins.


    "Now that you have the payment process in place immediately, please confirm it"


    "Hey, hey... Huh! You can''t believe that! Hey check it out right away!!"


    To Elliot at his leisure, Lucas immediately ordered his squire to look into it.


    What a furious development - and Tiara Rose gets an admirable breath.


    Elliot, who doesn''t usually come out on the surface, looks shadowy, but is very good and dependable. That''s also easy to tell from the fact that Aquasteed has been flanking Elliot all along.


    If you''re not good, you can''t keep getting close to Aquasteed.


    "Dear Lucas, isn''t this ugly any more?


    "Dear Tiara Rose......! But it''s not the kind of amount you can pay civilians. Appropriately, you may be willing to take Filine by telling her you paid."


    Listen to Lucas, I can''t even tell you what he said.


    - I wonder if this guy doesn''t make sense.


    "Elliot is the closest side of His Majesty the Aquasteed. Denying it is an insult to His Majesty the Aquasteed, I take it?


    "Well, that''s not..."


    When Tiara Rose tells her in a harsh tone, Lucas shuts up.


    No one can do anything to turn Marine Forest, a big country, against its enemies because it''s horrible. Tiara Rose breathes and calms her breath before smiling at Philine and Elliot.


    "You seem to have calmed down for a moment, you''re relieved. Philine, too, I''m glad it came together well. And Elliot, thank you for protecting Filine."


    "Dear Tiara Rose, thank you"


    "I''m still short on strength, but I''ll try my best"


    Philine laughs like she does, and Elliot makes a smile.


    Although Lucas is about to regret it, I am a little anxious that this procedure is Baron Sunfist...... so it was Tiara Rose I would ask my own father to do.


    Tiara Rose was led to the reception room, where she was finally able to calm down.


    Baron Sunfist seems to have totally liked Elliot, and he''s in welcome mode. Now that Filine is talking to her parents in a separate room, it''s a situation where both Tiara Rose and Elliot are waiting.


    Elliot sits on the couch and looks at Tiara Rose in a restless manner.


    "Um... thank you. If you hadn''t followed me, I''d have prolonged it more."


    "I am the one who is thankful to have Philine protected.... Speaking of which, did you just write to Master Aqua?


    "Yes, it is"


    The flying destination of a letter that I expected but was curious about. Apparently, Tiara Rose was being sent under Aquasteed as she had thought.


    - Then I''m sure Aqua will pick you up.


    Sometimes when Aquasteed comes, it won''t be any more of a problem, but I''m sure he''ll want to say hello to Baron Sunfist because he''s also in Elliot''s position as master.


    "Then let''s wait here for a while...... oh?


    "Child...?


    Tiara Rose tried to tell me that until she picked me up... the door was slightly open and multiple eyes were peering this way.


    "Maybe Philine''s siblings. Welcome."


    "Wow, it''s Tiara Rose!


    "Hello"


    The five children who came in straw with greetings.


    Tiara Rose knew Philine had a brother and sister, but when she had to see them, it was a roll.


    The boy, who I think is the oldest of them all, came forward on behalf of him.


    "Sorry, I didn''t ask my sisters..."


    "I don''t mind. I am Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest. And you?"


    "I''m Alan, the eldest son of the Sanfist family. The year will be sixteen."


    Courtesy, I like it.


    He has the same yellow-green hair as Filine, and he looks like a gentle boy with a calm atmosphere.


    I''m Elaine. I''m fifteen.


    "Luna, twelve"


    I''m Louis, Luna''s twin brother.


    "I am Nadia, ten years old."


    Everyone introduces themselves and finally Elliot greets them too.


    "I''m Elliot. We are in the vicinity of His Majesty Aquasteed of Marine Forest"


    "Be polite, thank you. I didn''t know my sister had such a lovely hall."


    Alan I tell you with a bitter smile, but that look looks delightful.


    You must be happy that Filine is going to be happy.


    "It''s embarrassing, because we can''t afford much money...... Given that my sisters were going to marry me in the future, my father was too strong to say no to Lucas."


    So he said he was very grateful for helping Filine.


    But at the same time, I regret that there was something more I could do.


    "I wish my oldest son had been firmer..."


    "Master Alan is still a student, even though he''s already graduated, isn''t he? I can''t help it."


    "Dear Tiara Rose...... Thank you. But in the future, I intend to boost my business so that I can marry my sisters as well as my favorite men. Still, I''m immature."


    Speaking of 16, it''s the year you graduate from school.


    When that happens, Alan will be helping with the business under Baron Sunfist. Show your intentions to that, but Tiara Rose finds it difficult to serve it back so easily.


    - Suddenly the performance, and it must be tough for sixteen-year-old Alan to stretch.


    I hope it''s some new measure too - and Tiara Rose flashed.


    "Yes, open a new Sweets store!


    "Huh...?


    The sudden suggestion surprised Alan, as well as Elliot and his younger sister and brother.

 103 13. Sweet Classes

    This is a good idea, Tiara Rose thinks.


    It will not be difficult to enter as there have never been more shops to handle sweets, and there are not many stores open that far yet.


    If you are a Sanfist family, Tiara Rose thinks it would be no worse to expand your business for the common people than for the aristocrats.


    Although the first capital investment may cost money, it could be funded by the Clamentiel family there, or Elliot could lend a hand.


    When Tiara Rose is making plans in her brain, she realizes that Alan is looking at herself with a puzzled look.


    "Oh, I''m sorry for all of a sudden. Dear Alan, I really like sweets."


    "Yes... I have asked Sister Filine, so I know"


    "Philine did? Really... Well, that''s a quick story."


    I didn''t know they knew I liked sweets...... and Tiara Rose moves on, albeit a little embarrassed.


    "Let''s make a confectionery shop. I''ll give you a recipe for that."


    "Oh, sweet shop...... is that it?


    "There are, of course, several stores in Lapis Lazuli right now. But I think it''s okay to have more."


    Besides, there are many shops for nobles.


    Although the quality of the ingredients may be reduced, Tiara Rose suggests that you try selling them at a price that can be easily purchased even by ordinary people by making purchases cheaper and less costly.


    That''s it for this story, though, if you shake your head that Alan doesn''t like it.


    I don''t know.


    When Tiara Rose asks, Alan figures out what to do.


    I guess I have a lot to think about. Of course we need manpower, but we also need purchasing routes such as land, construction costs and materials for stores, and we have to go through the process.


    rather than.


    "I don''t think that''s a good matter for me, a student..."


    Alan tells me he needs the permission of his father and lord, Baron Sunfist, first.


    I do have that, but I don''t think we should get Baron Sunfist if we''re going to launch it as a new business. You may be rude.


    "Indeed, it will be necessary to ask the Baron for permission. However, if I were to start a business, I would like Alan to do his best. Of course, I''ll let you back it up."


    "Dear Tiara Rose..."


    Alan can''t hide his surprise for caring more about us than he could imagine. But it was true that I was happy, and I immediately nodded and expressed my will.


    "For my part, I would love to hear that story"


    "Of course I am, but the Kramentiles can help. Because I always had Philine to support me."


    "Thank you"


    Filine, who served me as a samurai from a young age, has always supported me about Tiara Rose.


    When the shadow of a woman named Akali hits Halt Nights, or when her engagement is broken...... and she always backed me up on the best side so that my relationship with Aquasteed could go well.


    - If I can help Filine, too.


    "Let''s do our best, Master Alan -"


    "What are you trying to do? Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Filine......!


    When Tiara Rose took Alan''s hand and tried to get in the mood, her voice was covered along the way. I''ve come to finish talking to my parents, it''s Filine.


    Though it looks a little awkward, the expression is neat somewhere.


    As a matter of fact, I''m opening a confectionery shop with Alan as a new business for the Sunfist family.


    "Dear Tiara Rose!? Are we going back to Marine Forest?


    "Of course I know. I''ll pass on the recipe during my stay and go to the store once I get back to Lapis Lazuli."


    It looks like a lot of fun and I''m excited about it now.


    Besides, if it''s a store with Tiara Rose on it, the clams should be eye-catching. That way, there won''t be any weird guys like Lucas coming over a little bit.


    Filine puts her hand on her temples and sighs.


    "Such impotence again..."


    "It''s not impotent, Sister Philine!


    "Alan?"


    Alan was the one who blocked Philine''s voice from trying to stop him.


    The eyes are filled with a strong will, and the belief that they can definitely be made to look.


    "I couldn''t stop Master Lucas. I regret it so much, and I don''t want to make the same mistake again. So we need the strength to protect our sisters. ASAP!"


    "You''ve been thinking about that... Alan has somehow become such a fine man."


    Filine bowed her head to Tiara Rose as she wept over her brother''s growth.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, Best Regards, Brother"


    "Already, Philine. Keep your head up. Neither can I. Just give me a hand and I''ll tell you the recipe. In fact, it''s Lady Alan who works hard."


    I''m going back to Marine Forest soon, so I can''t even teach the recipe slowly. Instead, it may be harsh if it''s not enough to teach now.


    Tiara Rose calculates the dates of her stay, etc., and "ok" her temper.


    The place has changed, the kitchen of the Sunfist family.


    Philine''s brothers and sisters, including Alan, gained momentum.


    "Well, I''ll give you the recipe. The truth is, plan first... what, because I have limited time to be taught"


    "No, I''m very happy. Thank you, Dear Tiara Rose!


    There''s a lot to do, such as selecting a business plan or store, but Tiara Rose doesn''t have much more time than that. So I decided to teach you the recipe first.


    Teaching is a hall cake made at the Sweets Games. When selling, there is no problem with either as it is or equally enough.


    Taste, of course, but the candy workmanship and chocolate decorative ribbon on top of the cake becomes important. Glittering candy workmanship with raw cream and chocolate ribbon decorations.


    First, Tiara Rose makes one up and shows you an example.


    "Wow, Master Tiara Rose is amazing!! I''ve never seen such a lovely treat"


    "Thank you, Master Luna. Let''s all eat first and see what it tastes like."


    When we split it into plates and eat them all together, they all glow and admire each other very often. "Delicious," "Sweet," "Happy," "Absolutely Selling......!," he seems pretty hopeful.


    Seeing that, Tiara Rose is delighted.


    For one second I was eating cake and neat myself, I was called out from behind.


    "Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Elliot?"


    With Tiara Rose going on and on, Elliot was like air. Reflecting on doing something a little sorry, he asks what''s wrong.


    "I''m talking about investing, let me too"


    "Huh? But Elliot paid Master Lucas earlier, didn''t he?


    Tiara Rose wonders if it would be quite tough to invest even more new business from here on out. I don''t know how much more Elliot''s nostalgia is, but I''m pretty sure it''s going to be a lot of money.


    "It''s okay," laughs Elliot as Tiara Rose troubles.


    "It''s Dear Tiara Rose''s cake, so this business will definitely be a success. This is an investment in the future."


    "Elliot......"


    He doesn''t seem to doubt he''ll ever succeed, and he''s smiling.


    Even though it''s usually calm, Elliot''s core doesn''t get bumped at times like this. Tiara Rose grins bitterly, "Right," she mutters.


    "Well, I guess I''ll ask Elliot too."


    "Yes, I''ll take care of it!


    When Tiara Rose agrees, Elliot brightens her face.


    Then there came Aquasteed, where the kitchen door was knocked and guided by Baron Sunfist. Apparently the Baron is very nervous and beefy.


    "You''re late, Tiara Rose. Thanks for contacting me, Elliot."


    "Thank you, Master Aqua"


    "It was very helpful. Thank you, Master Aquasteed."


    Aquasteed thanked Baron Sanfist and tried to do something himself... but he notices a confused baron because he hadn''t heard about the confectionery yet.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, let me explain to my father from me"


    "Okay."


    Nodding to the offered Alan, Tiara Rose, who was trying to explain, backs off.


    Philine and Elliot also came to the side and entered the system of watching together.


    Aquasteed doesn''t know the details either, so he seems to talk to Baron Sunfist.


    "I have received advice and offers of assistance from Dear Tiara Rose regarding my post-graduation. And that includes Mr. Elliot."


    "Alan thought it was something to help me with my business..."


    What the hell? And, Baron Sunfist asks.


    "We want to start a new business at the Sunfist house! We are still preparing plans and such, but please allow us to succeed."


    That said, Alan bowed his head.


    Baron Sanfist also seems to have had trouble with what a reply he should give, and he can swim his gaze.


    Isn''t it reckless for a still young Alan to do something that doesn''t work out for himself? Yes, he thinks so.


    But at the same time, I am painfully aware that I do not have that talent.


    Look at Alan, look at Tiara Rose, look at Philine and Elliot.


    So, Baron Sunfist''s shoulder pulled out all the strength.


    My son has so many allies...


    Baron Sunfist put his hand on Alan''s shoulder and nodded forcefully.


    "I''ll believe you."


    "Thank you, Father!


    "But make me only one promise. If there''s nothing you can do... talk to me first. It may not be very helpful, I don''t rely on it, but as a father, I''m going to try my best to help."


    "Yes, be sure......!


    Now he sees Alan nodding powerfully, and Baron Sunfist laughs happily from the bottom of his heart.


    I''m sure the various chains that have hunted him down for years have broken a little.


    The heaviest of them all, the weight of Lucas, will never be entangled again.


    At ease, Baron Sunfist sees Alan, "Speaking of which," he says.


    "What the hell are you going to do?


    "Yes, it''s a confectionery store! There are many stores for aristocrats now, so I''ll keep the cost of the materials down and make one for the common folk!


    "Or confectionery!? Exactly, isn''t confectionery harsh on Alan?


    It''s Aquasteed who overwhelmingly laughed when he heard Alan say that.


    Unexpectedly panicking Baron Sanfist, Aquasteed shakes his head and tells him that he has no problem.


    "If you''re in a store that makes with Tiara''s recipes, you won''t have a problem. I can assure you."


    "If that''s what His Majesty Aquasteed says, as far as I''m concerned, I won''t really disagree"


    "Oh. I hope so too...... oh, yeah. If you want, you can open a store in Marine Forest and make it a sister shop."


    Oh, my God, Aquasteed makes a suggestion I don''t know if I''m serious or joking.


    But if Tiara Rose earnestly receives it, she will surely move to make it happen.


    And now, I''m happy to shine my face all the time.


    And Aquasteed makes another suggestion.


    "I''ll also teach you how to make the Danish cake I made at the Sweet Games, so you can put it in the store too"


    "That''s good, Master Aqua!


    Tiara Rose immediately slapped her hand and said, "I''m hiring!" and laughed happily.


    Thus, the sweet class lasted until late this evening.

 104 14. There were spices in every day that was calm......

    After a few days of stay, the Tiara Roses returned to Marine Forest.


    We''re supposed to proceed with the exchange on paperwork when it comes to the confectionery store plan, and I''m sure it''s a success when I look at Alan''s intentions.


    In the first place, just the touch of Tiara Rose on the back would come enough customers.


    By the way, Philine and Elliot are not engaged.


    Apparently, since Elliot got the aristocracy... As Tiara Rose, I wish I''d gotten married, but Elliot doesn''t seem to bend her own words.


    I thought it was too serious... but it wouldn''t be a good idea to talk too much. So Tiara Rose just watches with Aquasteed.


    Tiara Rose was sitting on her own couch reading a book, but closes it and puts it on her desk. I reached for tea and took a sigh of relief.


    "Are you tired? Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Philine. Well, I''ve been reading books, so my body''s hardened."


    When I told him that with a tickling laugh, Filine said, "Would you even like to take a walk?" He offered me a suggestion.


    Think a little, Tiara Rose nods, rather than just being in the room......


    "It''s cold out there, so I''ll bring you something to weave"


    "Thanks"


    I got Filine ready and went out to the garden for a walk.


    Is it because I had a busy day? Winter is coming to an end now, and spring is near. Although the flowers haven''t blossomed yet, it wouldn''t be that far away to see the full color.


    Today, there are no fairies in the garden.


    "It''s winter, so are you taking your time at home?


    "Maybe the fairies feel the cold, too"


    "That''s true. Maybe next time I''ll give you some warm tea."


    Talk about the fairy, then Tiara Rose moves on to Philine''s topic.


    "So, what about Elliot?


    "I don''t know... I won''t do it. I decided to wait, so I just waited."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly when this one was stubborn too.


    But the look on Philine''s face seems delightful, and I hope it keeps going well.


    "I''m happy, aren''t I? You don''t just have to marry Lucas, you even have to assist me with the house. I can''t thank Elliot enough."


    So Filine smiles that she believes in him no matter what.


    - Right. Elliot needs to do his best.


    After all, because you get the precious lady of Tiara Rose. I don''t want you to be semi-prepared, I want you to be happy at the top.


    I think of Elliot, who''s not here right now, as I won''t forgive you if you whine about Filine.


    "... Looking forward to it. If you ever have a problem, you''ll definitely talk to me, okay? I''ve had a lot of help from Filine, so now I''m gonna help."


    "Yes, Dear Tiara Rose. If you need anything, I''ll talk to you first. But I don''t think Elliot would have to worry about that."


    "So is that..."


    Elliot was a "good guy" from his first impression. That hasn''t changed since a few years and I''m sure it will continue to do so in the future.


    Walking through the lazy garden, a slightly noisy voice reached the ears of the Tiara Roses.


    That belongs to the maids and knights who work for the royal castle, and I''m worried something might have happened.


    Filine gives an anxious look and tries to go see how it goes, but stops and turns to Tiara Rose.


    "Let''s go back to your room for once. If it seems to bother you, I''ll check."


    "Right. If anything happens, you shouldn''t get in the way of the knights."


    But I could hear him calling it off sooner than I could go back to my room.


    "Kitten!


    "What, Your Majesty!? Why are you here..."


    Apparently, the knight and maid were trying to stop Saravia somehow, but he seems to have come all the way to the garden to run free.


    Exactly, I guess the knights couldn''t make it out strong to royalty in other countries either.


    Tiara Rose smiles bitterly, "It''s okay," she says to the knights.


    Ask Filine to prepare tea for you to deal with Saravia, and ask one of the knights to go get Aquasteed.


    "Do not trouble the knights of our country too much, Your Majesty"


    "I''m sorry, because I really missed you kitten. But it''s good to see you here."


    Saravia smiles, saying it was worth a little impotence.


    I only have a bad feeling about Tiara Rose when she looks at me with a smile and fun.


    What the hell are you doing here, what is your purpose? I don''t even think emperors of other countries are anything but trouble......


    "For one thing, let''s move the place. It''s cold in here..."


    "Oh, right. Sandrose doesn''t get cold this far, so it was freezing."


    Bitterly smiling at Saravia''s words, Tiara Rose moves to a welcoming room in the royal castle.


    The indoors are warm and comfortable enough to forget the outside temperatures.


    Saravia sat on the couch and sighed relieved with her mouth on the tea served. Although Tiara Rose only has a bad feeling about how much fun it looks.


    In the meantime, would it be nice not to get down to business and chat until Aquasteed gets here?


    When Tiara Rose turned a blind eye and tried to find out what was going on with Saravia, unfortunately, her eyes closed.


    Then I smile so much that I look at this one.


    "What''s up, kitten? Oh, could I have fallen in love?


    "No. Don''t tease me too much, Your Majesty."


    "Yeah, okay. Wouldn''t it be fun if we talked about it while we were at it? Look, she''s cute, so laugh more."


    Niko - I smile back at Saravia with a more smiling smile, and Tiara Rose smiles bitterly as well.


    "Sire Salavia, please enjoy the sweets too. It''s delicious because the cook makes it more on his arm."


    "Thanks. Though I thought so during the masquerade, Marine Forest desserts and treats look beautiful too. My country wants to be an apprentice."


    "I''m so glad you said that. Thank you."


    The cook''s arm is twitching because Tiara Rose is taking the lead in the confectionery relationship.


    Domestic is foolish, and you won''t be ashamed to send it out to any country. Now enough to say that it''s one of Marine Forest''s leading businesses.


    Praised for his favorite sweets, Tiara Rose nods that it would be.


    "I love sweets, too, and I often talk to cooks."


    "Heh, can you make it?


    "You lose to the cook, but to the extent you''re addicted"


    Saravia is a little surprised and says "wow".


    "Normally, royalty doesn''t cook for itself. I''d love for you to act like a handmade treat too."


    "No, because I''m just not armed enough to serve His Majesty Saravia."


    "Yeah? It''s just called kitten hand cooking, even though it looks delicious"


    Really? And Saravia''s staring.


    Tiara Rose also shakes her head because she cannot behave to the royalty of any other country. Except for the friendly acaris, but I just can''t do Saravia.


    I behaved, but at the end of the day, I might be able to set something up.


    Tiara Rose regains her temper if she is not careful, as her mouth becomes lighter when it comes to the subject of sweets.


    Then Saravia laughs as she watches how it goes.


    "Like, really"


    ¡­¡­


    "I think it''s so cute to see Rin look a little alarmed like this, even though she''s usually beautiful. They don''t sell to me, they don''t sell me, they want me more and more."


    Saravia''s eyes are narrowed and her gaze at Tiara Rose is fevered. I can''t do that to an emperor opponent in another country, even if I want to take a step backwards by accident.


    Let''s have a loving laugh and somehow say something. It was Tiara Rose who thought so, but doubted her own ears at Saravia''s words, which were continued.


    "I''ve been breaking up with all the side rooms to get the kitten"


    "Huh...?


    "From now on, kitten...... no, I swear I''ll just love Tiara Rose. So be my wife and come to Sandrose."


    No, no, no, no, no, what the hell are you talking about? This man.


    This is exactly what it would be like not to have an open mouth blocked.


    Did you break up with the whole side room to marry Tiara Rose? In the first place, Tiara Rose said she has an important husband named Aquasteed.


    I want to hold my head to Saravia, who is willing to try to take it from me.


    "Of course, you''ll be my wife, won''t you?


    "No, no, no, no, because I am the wife of His Majesty Aquasteed!!"


    Watching Saravia wink properly, she accidentally roughs up her voice, and Tiara Rose hurries to hold her mouth.


    No matter how rude you say it, Saravia is the emperor of another country. Even if I say no, I scold myself in my heart that there would be more different words.


    But Saravia is not the kind of man who cares about Tiara Rose''s tricks like that.


    "Fine, take it easy. I prefer a vegan atmosphere."


    "... no. I am the queen of Marine Forest."


    Excuse me, Tiara Rose, set the tone.


    - Or even though Master Saravia shouldn''t be too serious.


    Tiara Rose wants us to be more nervous because royalty is face-to-face with each other.


    "I am delighted with the sentiments of His Majesty Saravia, but I do not intend to leave His Majesty the Aquasteed"


    "I''m ready for a long fight."


    "That''s not the problem......"


    Where Tiara Rose was in a hurry to see what was going on, Aquasteed came.


    "Thank you for waiting, Your Majesty. What did you do today?


    "Oh, Your Majesty Aquasteed. Actually, I''d like to talk to your wife."


    "Are you with Tiara...?


    Without breaking his grin, Aquasteed sits next to Tiara Rose.


    "What are you talking about? I''d love to be with you."


    "Well, it''s also a story that will require Your Majesty''s approval. I didn''t get a good reply, but I''d love to welcome Tiara Rose to my wife."


    Aquasteed sighs in his heart that it is troublesome¡­ to Saravia, who also tells him that he has broken up with the side chamber.


    "Your Majesty Aquasteed, I..."


    "I know, Tiara"


    Tiara Rose looks at Aquasteed with the thought of a resolute refusal, though she seems sorry.


    Of course that doesn''t make me nod to Saravia''s reply because Aquasteed feels the same way.


    "Even if I turned Sandrose against my enemies, I''m not going to give them Tiara Rose. Can you pick it up? Your Majesty Saravia."


    "You have good eyes, Your Majesty Aquasteed. But even I don''t want to give up. So I''m going to let you stay at Marine Forest for a while. Of course, I swear I won''t do anything barbaric."


    In addition, they are offered to accommodate distribution from Sandrose for the duration of Saravia''s stay. Except that Tiara Rose is an end, you could say it''s not a bad condition, but rather a favorable one.


    Aquasteed sighs blatantly and sees Saravia.


    "If I said no... what would you do?


    "Right. I''ll keep approaching Kitten while staying at some inn."


    "... ok, I''ll get a room"


    I give permission to Saravia, who is not going to make it back to Sandrose, no matter how she gets up, to stay within sight of her then.


    If you are staying within the royal castle, you can also place a watching knight from here, calling it an escort.


    It seems impossible to have a calm day for a while.

 105 15. Unreadable Minds

    "Oh already ~!!"


    "Dear Tiara Rose, I know how you feel... but it can''t be."


    "... because I didn''t expect His Majesty Saravia to be like that!


    As Tiara Rose rolls over the bed with her voice raised, she is cautioned by a bitter, laughing filine.


    Saravia, who has approached Tiara Rose by saying that she is also ready for a long battle, is staying at the Royal Castle as a guest of honor.


    Tiara Rose is a day of constant sighs, saying that it is a troubling thing for Saravia.


    If you''re having tea, you''ll definitely come and see me, or you can''t scorn me because I''m Sandrose''s emperor.


    "Sure, a charming man doesn''t like me either. Master Tiara Rose has an Aquasteed, what the hell do you mean by that?"


    "Right."


    Nodding at Filine''s words, Tiara Rose wakes up her body and sits on the bed.


    - Or can I stay in Marine Forest, another country for such a long time to the Emperor''s sake...!?


    If the Tiara Roses broke up with the side room while they were going to Lapis Lazuli, I wonder if even my own country is somewhat messy......


    In the first place, can we get such a light divorce?


    Thinking mummy, Filine brought me some tea and macaroons.


    "Eat something sweet and calm down, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Thank you, Philine"


    Just include the macaroon in your mouth and your cheeks will loosen to its sweetness. Eating loosely also calms the feeling of being annoyed.


    And, uh, I doubt it.


    How could Saravia have come to Marine Forest in the first place? He said he wanted Tiara Rose flowers, but I don''t think the emperor himself is worth enough to go out and get them.


    - It''s the finest ingredient for a treat...


    I don''t think Saravia would ask for flowers just for a treat, and if she broke up with all the side rooms, I can''t even think about giving flowers to women so much...


    Perhaps the purpose now is Tiara Rose, but will we really get that far until the emperor of one country gets himself?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Dear Tiara Rose, what''s wrong?


    Look at Tiara Rose, who has thought about it, and Philine leans her neck wonderfully.


    What the hell was the change of heart when he said he was happily chewing on the macaroon until earlier...


    Tiara Rose smiles bitterly and tells Filine what she cares about.


    "His Majesty Saravia says he''s going to dictate me, but I was wondering if he had a real purpose."


    "Does that mean you''re making Dear Tiara Rose a convenient reason?


    "Yeah, ''cause it''s... unrealistic to have me as my wife"


    Of course there is a possibility that you are my emperor and really want to get Tiara Rose. But maybe Saravia''s sincerity lies somewhere different.


    Hearing the words of Tiara Rose, Filine goes on to say, "Indeed¡­" as well.


    "Sandrose is also a great empire, but Marine Forest is also a great power. It''s like good because His Majesty Aquasteed is moderate, but if you make a mistake, it''s an international issue, right?


    "I wonder what His Majesty will do if there is a dispute"


    Do you want to sell fights to big country opponents to get yourself? Thinking about it makes the word getting Saravian Tiara Rose seem more and more like a lie.


    - Maybe you should check it out.


    "Philine, you might want to do a little research on what''s going on with Sandrose. Anyone familiar with this?


    "If that''s the case... isn''t Elliot looking into it? I don''t think His Majesty Aquasteed has hit Sandrose with anything."


    "Elliot did? Speaking of which, I haven''t seen him in the last few days..."


    Apparently, he was running around investigating Sandrose.


    "Let''s go to Dear Aqua''s office. I''m sure Elliot will be there."


    "Yes, we''ll be ready in a minute"


    "Please."


    I asked Filine to prepare a stall, and the Tiara Roses left the room behind.


    When I went to Aquasteed''s office, besides Aquasteed and Elliot, there was Isira.


    I haven''t seen Isira lately, so it''s been a long time since I''ve seen her face to face.


    "Long time no see, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Dear Isira, it''s been a long time. Looking good and glad to see your face"


    "Me too."


    To Tiara Rose''s words, Isira smiles happily.


    Isira Pearlant.


    It is a heroine in the sequel to the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, and a duke''s house courtier. He is loved by sea fairies and manages the ocean in Marine Forest.


    Pale watery hair, orange eyes. A sixteen-year-old girl wearing a cute pink dress.


    I like Aquasteed and have drugged him with love pills to get it. But over it Aquasteed chose to talk about Tiara Rose.


    With such a past, Isira had stopped visiting the royal castle much.


    So it''s very unusual for Isira to be here. Aquasteed opens his mouth as Tiara Rose wonders what the hell is going on.


    "Actually, it''s about Sandrose, and I have something to worry about."


    "Are you talking about Sandrose? I''m here to talk about it, too."


    Apparently, Isira''s here has something to do with Sandrose.


    "And Tiara? Then I was just fine. Because I was just going to go get it now. For now, sit down."


    "Yes."


    Tiara Rose sits next to Aquasteed and Isira calms her hips on the couch across the street.


    Elliot prepared the paperwork, and Filine prepared tea for everyone.


    "I was asking Elliot to look into His Majesty Saravia and Sandrose. Apparently, Sandrose is experiencing some serious problems."


    "... problem, is it?


    "I''ll explain that to you."


    With a serious look, Isira raises her hand.


    Arrange Elliot''s paperwork, and Isilla moves on.


    "I feel like the sea fairies are on purpose, and I''ve been looking into it for a while now."


    "The fairies?


    "Yes, as Tiara Rose knows, I often dive into the sea and talk to fairies. That''s when I heard something that bothered me."


    The source Isira brought is like a sea fairy. Indeed, it is not surprising that they would have had information unknown to humans.


    The fairies live within Marine Forest and never go to the territory of another country... but the sea is connected by water. Did you learn anything from it?


    One breath down and a shocking word is uttered from Isira''s mouth.


    "... Sandrose''s oasis is starting to dry up a little bit"


    "What, the oasis?


    In Sandrose, where much of the national territory is desert, the presence of oasis is very large. Most of the time I''m building villages and cities around the oasis, and I''d say it''s grace.


    If that''s true, it''s a more serious problem than Tiara Rose imagined.


    - Under such circumstances, the emperor will be away from the country?


    Unless there''s some way to crack it, isn''t it hard to get physical? Tiara Rose thinks so and quickly gets annoyed.


    "Maybe His Majesty Saravia asks for me... because I have the protection of the Fairy King of the Sea...?


    Maybe he''s using the power of Tiara Rose and trying to get the water back into the oasis. Think of it that way, and you can nod at what the Emperor himself has forcefully done.


    "It''s natural to think so, I think...... but it also looks like you''re seriously trying to get a tiara"


    "Dear Aqua..."


    The first aim may have been the resurrection of the oasis, but it''s not surprising that I met Tiara Rose and was fascinated, Aquasteed says.


    Saravia looks challenged, but it''s hard to see where its heart lies.


    Aquasteed''s hand gently strokes Tiara Rose''s hair and smiles, "It''s okay," she said.


    "I''m not giving Tiara to Sandrose. Elliot''s been doing a lot of research."


    "Exactly. It''s a broken bone to look into another country."


    Explain how Sandrose is, with Elliot grinning bitterly.


    "As it was from Isira, the Sandrose oasis is beginning to wither away. However, the water level seems to be dropping, and few people seem to notice it. Perhaps only His Majesty Saravia and a very small part of us have grasped it."


    "So you can''t move publicly."


    If we put in a large number of personnel for the investigation, we will be torn apart by the public. But Saravia, I don''t know what an individual is doing for a move.


    If you are a chara man who usually likes women, the people will also think you are chasing women from other countries.


    Nevertheless, we do not know the facts because they are speculations with regard to Saravia''s behaviour.


    Elliot smiles bitterly and tells his guess.


    "Sure, His Majesty Saravia seems seemingly sloppy, but it is also true that the Sandrose Empire has power. It was three years ago, but it hasn''t faded since the previous emperor."


    "Oh I see, you can do your job..."


    Kitten, what a call and laugh about Tiara Rose, but I could see the gap in my conversation with Aquasteed and in my battles.


    - More and more, I don''t know what His Majesty Saravia is like.


    Tiara Rose sighs small as she seems to need to see how things go for a while.


    Or......


    "Would you like me to put in a little whiskey? Because His Majesty Saravia will visit almost every day"


    I thought I might be able to tell you a lot if I asked. Tiara Rose suggested, but soon Aquasteed shook his head as "rejected".


    "Tiara, do you know what your situation is? Even though I want to keep it locked in my room so that it doesn''t touch His Majesty''s eyes."


    "... Huh!


    "Yet you can''t get close to yourself."


    Needless to say, Aquasteed''s face approaches Tiara Rose''s eyes. At a distance my lips are likely to touch, I breathe unintentionally.


    "I can''t allow it, okay?


    "Ha, yes... Huh!


    Tiara Rose can only snort desperately at the words of Aquasteed, who was told so with her eyes narrowed.


    I''m thrilled, and I''m actually glad you said that about yourself... Tiara Rose is determined to make it right this time.


    I''ve always acted alone, so I''ve been worried about Aquasteed.


    "But... if you keep it up, won''t it be too late to solve it? Sandrose is a big country, so I think it''s a good idea to help and sell thanks..."


    "Well, I do have that... but I''ll think about it later. That Tiara is a big man."


    "Yes...... ugh!


    Aquasteed seems to have a good idea too...... yes Tiara Rose was just convinced and her lips touched it.


    "Oh, oh, dear Aqua!? Here, all of a sudden... Huh!!"


    In the clerk''s office, even though everyone else is here! Aquasteed chuckles as Tiara Rose raves her voice like that.


    And I looked indoors, and I said, "Really?," he says.


    "Because - no one!?"


    "Elliot went out in a separate meeting, and Philine stepped back, and Miss Isira went to the fairy to talk to her."


    Aquasteed says the Elliotts must have distracted her lately, as Saravia came by during the day and didn''t have much time for the two of us to slow down.


    Sure, I thought that was Tiara Rose too, but I don''t think it was in the middle of an important story!? But it''s also not something that I can conclude by discussing any more than that.


    Tiara Rose leans sweetly against Aquasteed''s shoulder as she frowns.


    "Then don''t hesitate to sweeten it! It''s hard for me to deal with His Majesty Saravia."


    It''s seen favorably, and I''m the emperor of Sandrose, and I''m very concerned about one response at a time. How many times, come on! And that you wanted to yell at me?


    Looking at Tiara Rose like that, Aquasteed said, "Shall we kick him out?," he says.


    "Eh."


    "Sure, I''m the emperor of Sandrose, but I''m not going to allow Tiara to like it as much as it offends me. Marine Forest is no better than Sandrose."


    I don''t know if Aquasteed''s words are serious again.


    - Because it''s going to happen.


    Or if you''ve got any more tears or escalations on Tiara Rose... I think you''re going to do it for real.


    - I''m so glad you said that, though.


    "I know you care about me, but not if you involve the country"


    "... that sounds like a tiara answer. I know, I''ll protect Tiara, so no problem. But if you feel something is happening or you don''t like it, say it right."


    "Yes."


    Aquasteed told me to protect it, so it''s bound to happen. I feel safe and I don''t feel uneasy about fine dust.


    I''m sure Aquasteed will protect this country and himself this way.


    - I want to do my best to support Master Aqua like that next door all the time.


    With that in mind, Tiara Rose gently held Aquasteed''s hand.

 106 1. Gobbling Fairies

    The snow, which had accumulated only a little, completely melted, and spring came when the light of the sun was warm.


    Tiara Rose, who woke up early in the morning, smiles "beautiful weather" with her face out the window. Then, signs of movement in the first place from behind.


    "... are you going to the garden?


    "Yes, for a walk before breakfast. Will Master Aqua come with you?


    "Right, let''s go"


    Just face out of the bedroom, Aquasteed turns his shirt to the sink for his hand. Seeing that, Tiara Rose, who stayed dressed at night, also had to get ready after the bedroom.


    She looks happy in the morning, Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest.


    Adorable honey pink hair as a woman, watery eyes. The queen of this country loves to eat and make sweets and is blessed by the fairies of the woods.


    I''m from Lapis Lazuli, my neighbor, but I''ve been married to this country for a lot.


    But the truth is, I have memories of a previous life when I played this world - the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring.


    I''d still be glad if that was all, but what a Tiara Rose was a villain warrant lady, the main character''s rival position! Prince Wang at the time you were engaged, he pushed you to break your engagement and deport you from the country? So my current husband... Aquasteed asked me to marry him and I came to this country.


    I was desperate when I realized I was a villain''s warrant lady, but now I have a happy marriage.


    As soon as Tiara Rose goes to her room, she calls on Philine, the samurai.


    "Good morning, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Morning, Philine. I''m going to the garden with Aqua, so I want to get dressed."


    "Yes, I did. It''s a beautiful day."


    I like something that''s easy to move, and Filine brings me a dress and a stall. It''s still cold out there though Spring Ahead, so I might catch a cold if I don''t keep it warm.


    "Breakfast will be served with a few slow eyes."


    "Yeah, please."


    "Yes."


    Sara gently braided Tiara Rose''s hair behind her and gently put it together, Filine laughs satisfactorily.


    Filine Sanfist, samurai of Tiara Rose.


    Yellow green hair, sepia eyes. An excellent samurai, serving Tiara Rose from an early age.


    Now Elliot and I have a little bit of a good vibe, but there are a lot of obstacles and it''s still going to take a little while for the two of us to get together.


    Tiara Rose wraps her fingers around her beautifully tied hair.


    "Truth is, Philine does everything cleverly."


    "I''m used to it. Master Tiara Rose makes sweets easily, doesn''t she? I think it''s the same as that, right?


    I also convince Tiara Rose that after listening to Filine, I see......


    "Dear Tiara Rose, it''s a new fashion."


    "I wish you were more widespread!


    "Yes."


    Immediately he grips his fist for a long time and intentionally, Filine laughs dull.


    Many treats made by Tiara Rose are not originally found in this world. They use recipes and methods that I remember in my previous life, when I was Japanese, so they appear completely new in people''s eyes.


    Fortunately, sometimes this world is a maiden game, and does it mean that some equipment and other cultures are developing?


    - If it weren''t, it wouldn''t be easy to make sweets like this.


    In that regard, I am quite grateful.


    "... hey, it''s time to go. You''re gonna be late."


    "Welcome, Dear Tiara Rose"


    Perhaps Aquasteed is already dressed and waiting, so Tiara Rose hurried to leave the room behind.


    The gardens of the Royal Castle are something gardeners tend to do every day, but the gardens of the Royal Castle in Marine Forest are only slightly different from those of other countries.


    Not just the gardener, but the forest fairy is taking care of the grasshoppers.


    "Flowers over there, maybe not feeling well?


    "Water, we don''t have enough water ~!


    What a busy voice to hear.


    In this country, fairies who are not in other countries live with nature.


    Forest fairy and its king Keith.


    Fairy in the sky and its king Crail.


    The fairy of the sea and its king Pearl.


    They sometimes bless people and give them their power. I just don''t give it to anyone. Bless only those who like it.


    No one has blessed the forest fairies, especially those who prefer grasshoppers, except the first king and his queen, who have only blessed Tiara Rose.


    When Tiara Rose and Aquasteed come to the garden holding hands, the fairies of the woods are still looking forward to taking care of the flowers today.


    It is the "Tiara Rose Flowers", the national flower, that we grow most importantly.


    As always, the fairies are enthusiastic.


    "Because you love flowers. I also brought some sweets for my souvenir today, so I think you''ll be happy"


    "Heh... that''s nice"


    Aquasteed smiles when he sees the cookies he brings in his basket.


    Tiara Rose''s husband, Aquasteed Marine Forest.


    Glossy dark blue hair, golden eyes. Here king of Marine Forest, he is also king of the starry skies that unite the land.


    He is the main offensive character in the sequel to the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, but he proposed to Tiara Rose, a villain''s warrant, to rescue her while she was convicted, and returned to her country together to marry her.


    "Shall I get one, too?


    "I don''t mind that... but when you get back to your room, it''s breakfast, right?


    "If it''s one of the cookies, it''s okay. I''m so glad you ate what Tiara made first thing in the morning."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Already, and with a bitter smile, the inner heart rises to the word.


    It is such a pleasure for Tiara Rose, who loves to make sweets and dishes of her own.


    - Then you might want to bake scones for breakfast!


    In this time of year, Marine Forest specialties are in season. Tiara Rose thinks that if we jam it and eat it together, it will taste even better.


    Then the ingredients you need...... oh my god, so much for me to think of.


    "Tiara"


    Aquasteed attracts Tiara Rose to herself, who has begun to think mummy. Keep hitting each other on the forehead and saying, "What are you thinking?," he asked.


    Apparently, he''s getting jealous that his thoughts have gone to the scones.


    "You''re taking a walk with me now, so I''ll see you later about the treats. Right?"


    "Ugh...... yes. That''s a prospect for Aqua."


    "Because we''ve been together for years. Too much unexpected, but I know a lot about Tiara."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Unexpectedly, Ki-jun, let alone stare at Aquasteed. Then he smiles and a gentle kiss falls on his temples.


    Become a world of two, and keep your mouth shut - and you say, ''Wow... do I look like I''m gonna cum?'' and a softening voice reached the ears of the Tiara Roses.


    - Yes, this was a garden!


    Looking at the voices, the fairies in the woods who had been caring for the grasshoppers until earlier looked at this one with interest. He''s red with his hands on his cheeks, or he''s shyly turning away...


    I can''t hear the usual laughter that sounds like fun.


    "Ah, ah, uh...!


    When Tiara Rose was making her mouth full of embarrassment, Aquasteed said, "Don''t tell me, okay?" Tell the fairies.


    "What is it?"


    "Because Tiara''s gonna be shy. Will you keep a secret from the other fairies?


    ''Yeah, okay!


    The fairies of the woods nodded many times, ''Let it be!'' and stretch his chest.


    But as for Tiara Rose, more than anything else, I am ashamed that the fairies have seen me. It''s too much though. Let''s be a little more careful this time.


    But Aquasteed doesn''t seem to care at all about what he''s seen, and he''s laughing with dullness and fun.


    "You must be used to being seen."


    "That''s it, this is this......!


    "Really?"


    Sometimes it''s called royalty, and when there''s no one else in the room, it comes with the knights of the escort. So I often get witnessed kissing scenes... but it''s not like the fairies can stare at me up close.


    "So, what happens after we get back to the room?


    "... it''s no comment"


    Whispered in his ear by Aquasteed, Tiara Rose turns bright red and turns away.


    - That can''t be answered here!


    What an answer when the fairies are intrigued to hear. Hard to say yes or no, Tiara Rose swells her cheeks.


    But fu.


    I notice other fairies gathering in the woods before I was looking at them.


    Something''s crouching, and there''s one fairy who looks sick. Around it, there are a few fairies who seem worried and rub their backs.


    "I wonder what''s wrong?


    When Tiara Rose told her she looked worried, Aquasteed also looked at the fairy''s presence, "You don''t look well," she said.


    Then the fairies who were with you tell them why.


    "Kind of twitching lately"


    "I don''t like it!


    "I don''t know why, what is it?"


    Apparently, something is happening to the fairies that I don''t know why.


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed look at each other and shake their necks. We can''t feel anything on our own, so we don''t know what to do.


    Or, you can''t leave the fairies alone.


    "Ah, maybe a tiara treat ~!?"


    "Huh? Yes, I brought it for everyone to eat."


    "Tiara''s treats contain magic, so you''ll be fine!


    "Really? Then let me feed you quickly"


    Feeling relieved by the fairy''s words, Tiara Rose hurried to the weak fairy and offered her cookies.


    It''s big in one, so when I give it a small crushed one, it slowly eats it in my mouth. Momogu proceeded to eat, and the fairy quickly got better and smiled at me.


    "Are you okay?"


    ''Yeah, Tiara''s treats are delicious! Thanks ~''


    "Good. You''re welcome."


    Smiling at the fairy, I think we need to find out what caused it as soon as possible.


    If you''re talking about them, you should ask Keith, the king. Tiara Rose decided to give the fairies cookies and go talk to Keith with Aquasteed.


    Keith, the fairy king of the woods, lives in the mountains behind the royal castle. There is his castle, where he lives with the fairies.


    Surrounded by rare grasshoppers, they are blinded by glowing flowers. The Fairy King reigns in a fantastic place that everyone would admire.


    When Tiara Rose and Aquasteed went under Keith, they said, "Hey, what''s going on?" and was spoken to in the same way as usual.


    Apparently you don''t really care what the fairies are up to.


    "Keith, there was something wrong with the fairies in the woods... some of them looked sick."


    "Hmm? Yeah, speaking of which, I thought the air was heavy."


    It was Keith, the Fairy King of the Woods, who told him in a blatant manner.


    Green hair, long to the waist, is loosely put together and its eyes are golden to represent being king. The waist is fanned and the vibrant outfit highlights its presence.


    Now I bless both Tiara Rose and Aquasteed and care about something.


    Even if you don''t know anything about this one, you''re apparently uncomfortable.


    "But before... I feel like something similar happened to me"


    "Really?"


    As Keith tells him with his head on, Tiara Rose puts words on the eating mood. I was worried about the fairy, so if you have any idea what it is, I''d love to know.


    "I wonder what it was..."


    "Is that a recent story?


    "... no, I also feel like it was a few hundred years ago"


    Aquasteed asks Keith to think about it. Looks like he''s desperately digging up memories of similar events that happened before.


    Sometimes he''s been alive for over a thousand years, and he can hardly remember it all the way to the details.


    "I hope I don''t have any particular problems, but if it was a precursor to something, I''d have to deal with it"


    If you know beforehand, that''s best. But Keith twisted his neck and remained troubled.


    Then why don''t we ask the fairies? That''s how Tiara Rose thought about it, and the sighing-minded grunt sounded.


    "I can''t believe you forgot that. That''s a hell of a head."


    "Dear Claire!... What, do you know what caused it?


    To Claire, who showed herself, Tiara Rose cut to the point shortly after thanking her.


    "You know, it''s like a routine thing."


    It was the Fairy King of the Skies, Claire, who appeared wrapped around the wind and transferred.


    Beautiful white hair is blue, golden eyes showing the king. The loose and simple clothes make him look majestic somewhere.


    You may say that you have the sky as your territory and have all the information you need about Marine Forest. I''m blessing Aquasteed now.


    To the amazing Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, Claire goes on to say the words.


    "The reason the fairies were bothering is because a sleeping salamander woke up in the underground temple of Sandrose. Because of the instability of power, the newborn fairy is susceptible."


    "Salamander... is the name of the Spirit, isn''t it? You know, gay tales, myths..."


    Tiara Rose blinks her eyes when she never thought it really existed.


    - But because it''s a world with lots of fantasy elements...


    Even if it existed, no wonder. Now, Marine Forest has fairies and kings. Even if they say there is a Spirit, you won''t have to deny it.


    Because I heard about Claire, or Keith slapped him in the hand with a pound.


    "I remember. No, that happened."


    "Well, it''s not like I''m about to come."


    Claire tells me calmly that I can forget.


    As far as listening to the two of you, it doesn''t look like you need to look at the problem much. But Tiara Rose doesn''t know the details, so she asks what she cares about Claire.


    "When you wake up, something bad happens?


    There''s nothing wrong with that.


    Claire shrugs her shoulders to Tiara Rose, who tells her with anxious eyes.


    "Good."


    Tiara Rose relieves herself that apparently she doesn''t need to worry.


    When I saw the weak fairy, I was in a tremendous hurry, but now I could calm down by listening.


    Aquasteed holds Tiara Rose''s shoulder like that and gently strokes her.


    "I hope there''s no problem, but I woke up. What''s Salamander gonna do? Are you going to sleep again?


    They''re waking up salamanders in hundreds of years cycles, so of course they''ll fall asleep again. But Aquasteed doesn''t know why he wakes up and sleeps.


    "The Sandrose royalty should calm you down. As usual."


    "We don''t know how to do that, but we''ve never had a problem before, so you''re gonna be okay."


    Claire and Keith say that the Sandrose royalty will solve it, but they don''t even know how to do it.


    Aquasteed heard it and nodded so much. If royalties in other countries were to carry out their responsibilities, they would have decided that Marine Forest did not need to be involved.


    - The royal family of Sandrose means His Majesty Saravia, right?


    I''m just staying, but I''m worried it''ll be okay.


    - Or like a flag.


    Oh, my God, I wonder if it''s because Tiara Rose likes games. Though of course I wouldn''t put that in my mouth because it would be unnecessarily misleading.


    "Oh, but... it''s not that it doesn''t affect this country at all"


    "Huh? Is there something?


    "Salamander is the spirit of fire. It affects the countries surrounding Sandrose."


    Says Claire, Salamander is a being worshipped by people as the Spirit of Fire, and its attributes are literally Fire.


    Temperatures increase compared to normal years.


    In addition, it is said that the volatility of distribution, such as prices, and the fact that prices also rise compared to normal years¡­


    Hearing the story, Tiara Rose nodded that the possibility was certain.


    "Do you need any measures?


    "No... Marine Forest is a rich crop, so there will be nothing wrong with more exports of food to other countries, for example"


    I want to make sure that firewood is prepared if the cold increases, etc., but I don''t need to do anything in particular for the summertime heat increases. Even if I did, it would be as much a reminder as¡­ to do some serious hydration.


    And if there is more exports, if the cause is in Sandrose, there may be a great advantage in being able to sell thanks.


    "Hydration is certainly important.... Oh, then you can also take salt, so what about making salt gelato? It''s delicious!


    Tiara Rose makes her eyes shine wondering if this is a good idea.


    The three of them, Aquasteed, Keith and Claire, who heard that, laugh blinkingly because they had no idea.


    "Tiara really likes sweets. Then when I make it, I''ll let you eat it, too."


    "Oh, excuse me. If I..."


    As soon as I thought about it, it came out of my mouth.


    Keith laughing a lot and Claire screaming. But Aquasteed looks at Tiara Rose in such a fun way.


    "I want to make it a country where Tiara can make sweets at will. I''m glad you said that, as far as I''m concerned.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Even if he has trouble, Tiara Rose tells him he should be free to make treats and spoil them once in a while because he will solve them.


    "Yes..."


    Tiara Rose blushes unexpectedly in those straightforward words and can only nod small.


    Behind him, Keith and Claire laughed bitterly as they watched.

 107 2. Invitation to Sandrose

    Sunlit sand holds heat and half of the country is desert Sandrose Empire.


    Giraffed heat during the day and freezing cold during the night. To be honest, it may not be an easy environment to live in.


    But the desert roses that bloom there are so beautiful, and not many of the ladies say they want to see them once before they die.


    I seldom draw water to each household, so I go to the oasis every morning to collect the water I use on that day for a living.


    Today the girl went to the oasis to get some water, but... I notice things are different from usual.


    The adults nearby also gave a peek at the look of surprise and anxiety. What the hell is that? If you think so and look at the oasis - there was less water than yesterday.


    "What''s going on with less water in the oasis...!


    "Sixty years old, I''ve never seen anything like it."


    "No way...... it never dries up!?"


    People''s anxiety grew at once, saying what they thought to themselves.


    If I may be mistaken, I use the water of the oasis as a blessing every day. Impossible to see it wrong. People''s stirring gets bigger and bigger, and their anxiety spreads -.


    "Sire Saravia, the water in Sandrose''s oasis is dwindling...... Huh!


    "... well. Is that all you got?


    "Huh? Yes..."


    "You should go back and rest now"


    Royal Castle of Marine Forest, one room reserved for Salavia.


    Orange bright curtains and lace overlaid on them. The room, organized in bright shades, may be perfect for Saravia, whom Tiara Rose tells Chara.


    But now Saravia doesn''t even make such a charming appearance feel fine dust.


    Saravia Sandrose, Emperor of the Sandrose Empire.


    Brown skin, short blonde hair. The red eyes are narrowed and at first glance I don''t know what I''m thinking.


    Until now, I''ve got everything I want. Now I''m in love with the feisty Tiara Rose I''m not afraid of myself, and I''m staying at Marine Forest saying it''s to get it.


    Now in this room are the Lord, Saravia, the nearby Izette, and the knight of the decree who was reporting.


    The knight rushed to his early horse to inform Saravia of Sandrose''s anomaly. I still get the temper to keep my breathing a little disturbed and not report it any sooner.


    The oasis may wither...... the knight who had such a hurry is baffled by Saravia, who is looking badly calm. You think you''re gonna take things more seriously.


    But Saravia told me to back off. As far as I''m concerned, I have to back off. Saravia took a small breath as the knight thanked her and left the room behind.


    "We need to get back close to the country, but we also need to get ready for it..."


    "Right. Exactly, you can''t leave a country in this state empty."


    In reply to Saravia''s words, Izette replies while holding her temples down. If it''s going to be pretty tough, I guess it''s bothering your mind about the future ahead.


    The vicinity of Saravia, Izet.


    To brown skin, a desert people, silver hair. Because of his serious personality, he is often swept away by free-running Saravia.


    For one thing, as Izette makes all the arrangements - one thing that bothers me.


    "What happened to the jewels you gave to Dear Tiara Rose after all? It must have been a fabric stone to do something about this situation, right?


    "Oh, the jewel you gave Rose"


    What Izette told me was when Saravia went to see Tiara Rose pretending to be a merchant.


    The red gem, previously given to Tiara Rose, is officially called ''Salamander''s Tears''. It is told that the tears shed by the Spirit of Fire Salamander have become gems, but it is not sure if they were truly tears.


    "Hopefully, we''ll build strength in Salamander''s tears... I don''t know"


    If we don''t know yet, Saravia sighs.


    "I can''t save Salamander with my power.... I''m sorry I sent Rose the jewels in silence, but there''s no guarantee it''ll work"


    "As far as the condition of the knight earlier, it seemed pretty serious. If you do it badly, there will be a riot, right?


    "To keep you from doing that, I''m here."


    "Dear Saravia..."


    Take a big, deep breath and Saravia closes her eyes.


    Far from ancient times, salamanders sleep beneath the Sandrose Empire.


    ... No, should I say that Sandrose was founded in the land where Salamander slept? Since then, Salamander and the royal family of Sandrose have made a covenant.


    Salamander usually sleeps, but wakes up hungry in a hundred year cycle. The role of the royal family is to give Salamander the magic of the name of food.


    Until now, nothing has gone wrong because the royal family has given Salamander magic. But this time, I chose a different means because I couldn''t do it.


    Tiara Rose was chosen as the person to be given magic to Salamander instead of Salavia.


    "I''m getting the blessing of the Fairy King, so I thought maybe - but I didn''t know it was Dompisha. At first, I thought I''d just use it."


    Saravia laughs when she is now completely obsessed with Tiara Rose.


    "I didn''t think anyone with the power to match the wavelength of Salamander would be anywhere but the royal family of Sandrose."


    "We can''t do that either. I wonder who the hell you are, even though you''ll never fit in with a normal person. Rose is."


    Not everyone can be given magic to a salamander.


    As Saravia told us, it can''t be done without the magic of the right wavelength. Is it possible to find such a human being to such an extent as to find sand and gold grains from the desert?


    No, maybe it doesn''t even exist. That''s what I thought, but I had to give Salamander some magic, so I checked it out for once.


    Among them was the people living in Marine Forest, where the fairy blessings are. Isn''t there a slight change in magic? and conducted an investigation in secret.


    Blessed are many fairies...... It was a normal magic.


    Then what about Aquasteed, who is blessed by the Fairy King? The quality of magic was better than normal, but not as good as the wavelength fits.


    When I was about to give up, I checked the magic wavelength of Tiara Rose and found that it was suitable for salamanders.


    It also had a heterogeneous soul to have as a reincarnator and the height of the original specs for being the main character in the game called Villain Warrant Lady... that Saravia couldn''t possibly know about.


    "We''re going to have Salamander share the magic of Tiara Rose, so we have to invite her to Sandrose.... or will the circumstances be explained?


    "I''ll send an invitation to the festival, so there won''t be a problem. Exactly. There''s an interaction. You''re not gonna turn down my invitation."


    When I look at Aquasteed''s drowning, he doesn''t seem to let go, but the guy thinks exactly public and private.


    "The thing is... we''ll see how Salamander goes for a second. From the tears of the salamander, it would be best if only magic were successfully removed and given"


    "Right. If His Majesty Aquasteed decides it may be a dangerous place, it will be difficult to take Master Tiara Rose."


    "Oh."


    I was wondering if I could safely fill the salamander I was about to wake up with magic. Saravia nodded less confidently than usual.


    A few days later...


    "Dear Aquasteed, you have received an invitation."


    "Hmm?"


    Elliot with a single letter came under Aquasteed, who works in the office.


    Sit in a black leather chair and place the documents you were looking through first on your desk.


    Aquasteed''s office is summed up in an atmosphere of calm based on black. There is a gentle breeze through the window that opens just a little and is comfortable.


    "Is this... an invitation from Sandrose? The sender, of course, is His Majesty Salavia"


    When I retrieved and read the letter using a paper knife, there was an invitation to the ceremony "Festival of Fire and Water" at Sandrose.


    This is an annual Sandrose festival, but we should not have normally invited royalty from other countries.


    Aquasteed looks at the letter with surprise and sighs small.


    "You can''t just say no to a formal invitation..."


    "Right. Everything seems to be going pretty well this year."


    "... I see"


    It was easy to imagine what Crayle and the others had told me about Salamander.


    Hopefully it won''t be any trouble, Aquasteed sighs again.


    "With all those sighs, happiness runs away, doesn''t it?


    "Elliot...... that would be superstitious"


    What do you think?


    It was Elliot on the side who told him with a gentle grin.


    Soft brown hair, including slightly orange. I''ve been calm from time to time, but I''m a man who can do his job exactly.


    Now to propose to Filine, I am more encouraging than to get aristocracy.


    Have a sip of tea, Aquasteed now what to do...... and it bothers my head.


    "Participation in the ceremony is between me and Tiara. The climate in Sandrose is tough, so schedule your itinerary at your leisure."


    "Okay. In addition to Filine and Tarmo, Tiara Rose will be accompanied by several knights."


    "Oh, nice to meet you"


    Then you''ll also need a souvenir, so you have to think of something.


    Looking at the invitations, we can afford the ceremony days in three months. Nevertheless, there are about fifteen days by carriage to Sandrose. There won''t be much time to relax.


    "But when it comes to sandrose, it looks hot. Your outfit might also need some heat protection..."


    "Right. Especially since Tiara isn''t even working out like me or Elliot, so it could be hard. Tell Filine to get the dress ready as soon as possible."


    "Okay."


    Elliot nodded and left the office to adjust schedules, etc., with Filine.


    Aquasteed moves the hand he was stopping again and runs his eyes on the paperwork.


    If we were to go to Sandrose, we would be vacating the Royal Castle for over a month. I knew I was going to sigh again when it seemed like a busy day for a while.

 108 3. When to Break Up

    "Philine, have you finished packing?


    "Yes, you can leave at any time."


    "Thanks"


    Tiara Rose was getting ready with Filine when she heard she was going to Sandrose to attend the festival from Aquasteed.


    It''s also a country I wanted to go to once, so it''s hard but also exciting to deal with Saravia. However, is it difficult to be hot because it is a desert country?


    "You have to take a lot of moisture. Try to take a break."


    "Of course it is. We will make your journey as comfortable as possible."


    Filine prepared more carefully than usual, including a sunscreen cream and a hat to keep the sunlight out of direct contact.


    "Probably not a problem, but please let me know as soon as you have something, okay?


    "Yeah, sure."


    When Tiara Rose and Filine looked at each other and smiled, a knock sounded in the room at that time.


    "... I wonder who. Although I don''t have a very good feeling about it."


    "I''ll check"


    The visitor was the person Tiara Rose had expected.


    "Hey, Rose. You look so cute today."


    "Your Majesty Saravia... I''m not allowed to enter the room, am I?


    "Don''t be so hard on me. Me and Rose, right?


    "Then I am Tiara Rose, not Rose. Don''t call me by my nickname."


    Tiara Rose tells me she''s clear, but Saravia doesn''t look familiar.


    Haha I laughed and sat down on the couch across from Tiara Rose.


    Following Saravia, the correspondent Filine returns with a tired face. I can easily imagine Saravia coming in on her own, even though I stopped her.


    Moreover, since then, Izette, near Saravia''s side, has also come.


    "... So, what can I do for you?


    "It''s cold, Kitten. I don''t need a reason to come see my darling."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I just want to sigh as much as I can, but I''ll put up with it a lot.


    I don''t want to lack gratitude, even if they are charas, because they are the emperors of Sandrose. Even if it was inexorable.


    You felt the silent pressure of Tiara Rose, Saravia laughs a lot.


    "And then... right. As you know, I started bothering you, so I apologized for that."


    "If so, please go to His Majesty the Aquasteed, not me"


    "Of course. But I thought it was for kittens."


    The nuisance that Saravia is telling us is about the water problem of Sandrose''s oasis.


    I had heard that when the Spirit Salamander of Fire woke up, the heat would increase due to its effects... but the water in the oasis had decreased more than I had expected.


    Though the Tiara Roses thought it would decrease somewhat due to higher temperatures.


    Because of that influence, some wealthy people are coming to Marine Forest in fear that the oasis will continue to wither...


    There is no problem accepting it because of the abundance of water and food, but because things are getting bigger than they were supposed to be, Aquasteed is being followed through with it.


    "Can you talk to me even though the people are anxious?


    Shouldn''t we go back to the country right away? And, Tiara Rose tells them in the dark.


    "There''s no problem.... This festival is being held on a massive scale to revive the grace of the oasis. It''s a little less now, but it won''t go away."


    "Really..."


    To Saravia''s words, Tiara Rose is also convinced for once.


    - Is it possible that the festival is being dealt with by the royalty that Lady Claire was talking about?


    Claire''s words are trustworthy, so I''m sure what Saravia says is also true.


    In other words, you can attend a festival that takes place only once every few hundred years. Tiara Rose thinks it would be a great honor, although she has some anxiety at the scene.


    "Will His Majesty Saravia be dancing witches, too?... Looking forward to it"


    "If your kitten''s going to look at you, there''s no way you''re not going to stick around!


    Saravia winks at Tiara Rose and tells him, "Expect it".


    He rode himself out even further and reached for Tiara Rose over his desk. In a hurry Tiara Rose tried to escape to the side and said, "Your Majesty?" and a low voice reaches my ear.


    "Come on, I thought I told you not to mess with my queen.


    "Whoa, aqua. I almost had a good vibe with the kitten from now on."


    "Dear Aqua!


    Just for a break, Aquasteed came to Tiara Rose''s room.


    Sit straight next to Tiara Rose and hold her shoulder.


    "No alarm, no gap at all"


    "Ah, let me see..."


    Saravia shrugs her shoulders and sits deep on the couch.


    Keep your gaze on Aquasteed and say, "Aren''t you busy?" Ask lightly.


    "I''m very busy because of someone. If it''s true, I was planning on going to Sandrose with Tiara as well... but I got to rendezvous a little late"


    "Oh, really?


    "Wow, not so much"


    As Tiara Rose and Saravia talked about earlier, there are a lot of people coming from Sandrose now, and Aquasteed has been chased a lot by the response.


    So I was supposed to go to Sandrose with Tiara Rose, but I had to go late.


    When I heard that, Saravia said, "Like!" and make the expression shine.


    "I''ll escort Rose properly, so Aqua just needs to slow down"


    "So you''re telling me not to call the queen of men by her nickname."


    "Ha."


    Even in Aquasteed''s words, Saravia doesn''t seem to like it.


    "Totally. He said I wanted to go with him because this is how I''m going to attach him..."


    "Eh, Dear Aqua...... If I were you, Philine would be here, and I''d be fine."


    Tiararose tells him because Saravia doesn''t deal with him, and even one of them performs proper official duties. Nevertheless, the opponent is Saravia, the emperor. Yes, it would be difficult to reject it so strongly.


    "Don''t worry," Aquasteed says to Tiara Rose, confused, bewildered.


    "Of course I didn''t intend to leave it to His Majesty Saravia, so I prepared a solid escort here"


    "Yeah? When it comes to escorting kittens, was it a knight named Tarmo?... other than that?


    "Oh, yeah"


    With a decent Saravia on her ass, Aquasteed rattles her pussy and fingers.


    Then two kings appeared in the transfer.


    Long green hair and beautiful silver hair dance.


    Keith the Fairy King of the Woods and Pearl the Fairy King of the Sea.


    "Oh, Tiara. Me and Pearl are going to Sandrose together."


    "Girls (stomach) must be tough on their own, and you can do it with them."


    "Are you two my escorts?


    When Tiara Rose startles and blinks her eyes, Pearl tells her, "Well, then."


    - It''s too luxurious for a fairy king to be my escort...!


    A feisty woman, Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea.


    Long silver hair aligned under the shoulders, the king''s golden eyes. It is elegant to wear a vibrant kimono dress that overlaps and hides your mouth with a fan.


    When I look at Aquasteed, who is unintentionally beside me, I smile. On that face, it seems to say that Tiara Rose deserves this because she wants to go alone.


    Tiara Rose breathed unexpectedly and nodded.


    "Thank you for your concern"


    "It''s a long road, be careful. If anything happens, talk to the people around you."


    "Yes."


    Aquasteed gently strokes my head, and Tiara Rose relieves me of her shoulder strength.


    "But... Regardless of Keith, I''m surprised that Master Pearl is with us"


    "Hmm. Because you owe me the magic to awaken me. You can do this with your strength."


    "Was it..."


    I thought Pearl and I were at a distance, so I''m very glad you could help me out this way, even if there''s a reason to be grateful.


    Besides, she hates men. On that grounds, I guess it would also be an excuse to pull Saravia apart...... and laugh bitterly.


    Where the interaction between the Tiara Roses had settled, Salavia, in large part, took a seat. And then Keith and Pearl go down and kneel.


    "With the two fairy kings, we will see"


    There is no previous joke, Saravia''s low, calm voice echoes indoors. In reply to that, Keith narrowed his eyes as if to identify him.


    "Oh, I don''t know.... Allow me to say hello"


    "My name is Saravia Sandrose, Emperor of the Empire of Fire Sandrose. I am honored to meet the Fairy King in my life."


    It''s Keith, the Fairy King of the Woods.


    "Wrinkles are pearls. The fairy king of the sea."


    Tiararose thinks it''s as if Saravia is being shown that she is an emperor when she is usually challenged but is thus shown Rin.


    I wish you had this attitude from time to time... but I don''t speak up.


    Say hello and take your seats.


    What we''re going to discuss now is a date to get to Sandrose.


    These are the six main members: Tiara Rose, Keith, Pearl, Filine, Elliot and Tarmo. And a total of eight because Saravia and the nearby Izette will also be accompanied.


    There, the maids, the knights who escort them, etc. are also added.


    "Well... we''re leaving in three days. I''m going to be out of there about ten more days late, but I''m going to meet you at Sandrose about five days after Tiara arrives, because I''m rushing the itinerary."


    "Yes, I understand. Your Majesty Aquasteed is waiting for you."


    I miss you for a while, but I get in the mood that I have to hold on as queen myself.


    Aquasteed gives Saravia detailed directions to see if there are any problems. Advice is needed if we are to make it the least dangerous possible and safely traceable route.


    Looking at the map spread out on the table, Saravia takes a serious look at "Hmm......" And pointed to one street.


    "I''ll let you check later, but we''re planning on doing construction here, so you should take a detour. The night lane is a little dangerous, so I''m going to take care of it. Well, if you don''t get out of the carriage by yourself, I don''t think you''re in danger."


    "... no, let''s take a detour. If you can avoid it, you''ve never crossed it."


    "Okay."


    Even with caution, it is Tiara Rose who ends up being impotent by herself.


    Then Aquasteed decides to bypass immediately that it is best to go along a safe path no matter what you do from the start.


    I checked the detailed schedule and the discussion ended fine.


    As Saravia and Keith left the room, Aquasteed returned to Tiara Rose.


    "Dear Aqua?... good job"


    "... yeah. I''ve been trying to figure it out, but I don''t think I''m gonna be able to go with Tiara."


    "It''s your job, so I have no choice. We won''t be seeing each other for a while, and we''ll spoil a lot until we leave!


    Holding the exhausting Aquasteed''s head all the way in, Tiara Rose puts it on her lap. Keep stroking your head and smiling gently.


    Aquasteed with a knee pillow laughs bitterly that he''s going to fall asleep like this.


    "Tiara''s knee feels good and troubled"


    "What is it, it"


    Chuckling at Aquasteed''s words, Tiara Rose tells him, "You can sleep."


    "Sleep is important. Lack of sleep can also make you less efficient, right?


    "That''s right...... it would be a waste of time if I slept with Tiara because I could make some time with her"


    "Already..."


    Unexpectedly blush at the words spoken.


    - Master Aqua says something embarrassing.


    I''m thrilled, and no matter how many hearts I have, I''m not going to be enough.


    "Yeah, but maybe if Tiara kissed me, I could sleep"


    "Huh... Huh!


    You''re gonna spoil me, aren''t you? And, Aquasteed smiles deeply.


    The opposing Tiara Rose roars. I do want to fulfill Aquasteed''s request before I tell him to spoil it.


    - I''ve been married for years now, and I wonder how long I''ll be thrilled.


    There''s no sign of calm at all.


    - That and this is because Master Aqua is much better looking!


    He''s sweet, he smiles nice, he leads in everything, and although he''s a little mean once in a while... I like it all, including that.


    When I stared at Aquasteed on my lap, I said, "Hmm?," he asks.


    Tiara Rose thinks you want to sleep in your sleepy eyes. I''ll be stroking your head all the time, so I want you to at least get some rest now.


    Because Tiara Rose can''t leave for Sandrose so slowly.


    "Good night, Master Aqua"


    "...... hmm. Just a little."


    Chu, and. With a sweet and gentle mouth, Tiara Rose strokes her forehead hair with her fingertips and drops one kiss there as well.


    In a pleasant warmth, Aquasteed began to take a nap.


    And not long after, the day of departure came to Sandrose.


    Philine and Elliot finished all the prep and stuff, so all we have to do is get in the carriage.


    "Tiara, that you will never be impotent if something happens. Like?"


    "Of course, Master Aqua."


    "If His Majesty Saravia is about to do something, don''t hesitate to use magic. Absolutely, right?


    "Uh... I''ll do good"


    Tiara Rose laughs vaguely because she can''t be very impotent with her emperor counterparts in other countries.


    Then Keith broke into the conversation from the side.


    "I''m blessing you two, fairy king. I''m with you, right? Whatever happens, I swear I''ll protect Tiara."


    "I do trust the word to protect..."


    Keith is going to get a little carried away in a different way, and Aquasteed says he can''t be trusted. Nevertheless, he is the most trustworthy opponent of all.


    Being a fairy king, he is better than Saravia, so if he has done anything to Tiara Rose, he will relentlessly drive him away.


    "... I left it to you, Keith"


    "Oh, I''ve been entrusted"


    When Aquasteed offers his right hand, Keith offers his right hand the same way and the two fists bump into each other.


    What you two have is an un-linguizable thought of taking care of Tiara Rose. Since we acknowledge each other that, in terms of entrusting it to protect, no one may be more secure.


    I think Tiara Rose, who saw it, has been in a pattern for a long time.


    "We have Keith and Lady Pearl, and we''re fine. Even His Majesty Saravia won''t be joking in public..."


    "I know that, but it doesn''t matter if you''re convinced."


    I said that. What if Aquasteed held me tight and I did have the same situation?


    If a luscious beauty had come to Aquasteed...... just think so, it''s not funny and unpleasant.


    - Master Aqua feels the same way.


    "I will never be alarmed!


    "Yeah, promise"


    Suddenly laughing at the tempered Tiara Rose, Aquasteed tangles her pinky fingers and makes a promise.


    But to be honest, Aquasteed has nothing but anxiety. When it comes to Tiara Rose, she acts without clapping.


    "Look, it''s time to leave, kitty."


    "Sire Saravia!


    "It''s a different carriage than Tiara''s, so please get in your carriage, Your Majesty."


    One carriage for four: Tiara Rose, Keith, Pearl and Philine. Saravia is in the same carriage as the nearby Izette.


    Saravia complained to the end, but there''s no way Aquasteed and Keith would let that happen. Of course, Pearl, who hates men.


    Talking about that - a little wind blew and Claire showed herself.


    Besides, the figure is that of a beautiful woman with long hair.


    "Hey, I can''t believe you''re leaving Marine Forest without even contacting me"


    "Crail!!"


    The one who hastily vandalized his voice was Pearl, who was beside Keith.


    Stop wearing women''s clothes here these days and say you looked like a man, what the hell kind of blow.... I think it''s obvious what you''re doing for a man hating pearl.


    Jito, look at the clail that is eyed. Pearl hangs around for a moment, but argues strongly.


    "Would you be able to pick up the sound of Marine Forest as you please? Are you getting your own information about this one anyway?


    "That''s right, but I wanted to hear it directly from Pearl."


    "Don''t be obstinate, you won''t have a choice. Nevertheless, dress like that again..."


    Come on, Pearl says I wish I was a man without worrying about myself, but I can''t help it because Claire''s priority is to care for Pearl more than I do.


    "Already. Shall I go to Sandrose too? Keith, I''ll take your place. You stay."


    "Don''t be silly. It''s me and Pearl."


    "You''re not accommodating..."


    Aquasteed sighs at the words of the fairy kings that have suddenly begun. From before we left, it means we''ll be compassionate first.


    In the meantime, Claire''s going with us is dismissed.


    "Crail."


    "I already know. Aquasteed, scary face."


    "... at all. If you don''t leave soon, you''ll be late for the city you''re staying in."


    "Right," Claire breathes, listening to Aquasteed.


    And immediately see the pearl.


    "Pearl, be careful. There will be no meeting with Salamander... but if you need anything, let me know right away."


    "I know. Don''t worry, it''s fine."


    "Well, shall we leave?"


    Pearl responds and Keith speaks up.


    Seeing the two of them get in the carriage, Tiara Rose spared no time to break up and hug Aquasteed.


    I''ll see you soon, but I still miss what I miss.


    "I''m coming, Master Aqua"


    "I''ll be on my way, too, so I''ll be waiting for you, okay?


    "Yes. Okay, I''ll go"


    "Oh."


    When Tiara Rose laughs flutteringly, Aquasteed kisses those lips gently. It''s weird because I''m embarrassed but think I won''t be seeing you for a while......


    With his lips apart in remnants, it is now time for Tiara Rose to board the carriage. Immediately Philine will also ride and leave.


    Peeping his face through the carriage window, Tiara Rose waved.


    Come on, let''s go for Sandrose.

 109 4. Oasis Grace

    In the raucous sun, the carriage moves towards Sandrose without any problems. It''s good because I enjoyed the view at first, but I''m just tired of spending days.


    "Getting around in a carriage is tough for humans."


    Pearl tells him to look bored and slams a fan.


    Tiara Rose, who saw how it went, smiles bitterly, "It''s almost Sandrose''s border," and looks ahead with her face out the window.


    There is the border that leads to Sandrose. Beyond here, what awaits is the Burning Great Empire Sandrose.


    "To the city with the royal palace, you''ll go through several cities with oasis. That would make some things unusual, and I think Master Pearl would enjoy them."


    "We''ve been in Marine Forest forever."


    To Tiara Rose''s words, Keith nods too.


    "I''m letting you leave a message. You can buy a souvenir for Claire. You know, he talks a lot about dressing as a woman."


    "Was it on my crail? Well, what the hell do you want me to buy for a woman dressed like that? Are you a woman or a man?


    "You''re either, aren''t you?


    Keith laughs and says that Claire''s in charge is Pearl.


    Of course I don''t like it as a pearl... but Claire owes me a little something too. That she was taking care of Pearl''s Palace when she was asleep.


    Pearl frowned and said, "I have no choice."


    Then some time later, a carriage carrying the Tiara Roses crossed the border into the Sandrose Empire.


    The temperature would be higher than ten degrees due to physical sensation than Marine Forest.


    "I was ready... but it''s hotter than I expected"


    ... and so much so that Tiara Rose spills unexpectedly.


    Keith, Pearl and Philine just have to nod at this temperature, too.


    "I don''t understand the heat on land because I''m usually in the ocean. ¡­ water, lower the temperature in this space."


    "Wow...! Awesome......!


    When Pearl uses magic to look up into the sky with a fan, the inside of the carriage cools in an instant. I would be quite grateful to be comfortable in an air-conditioned carriage.


    "Thank you, Master Pearl"


    "Well, there''s nothing like this. Because it''s a narrow carriage, and then it''s hot."


    "Right."


    I do apologize for asking them, the fairy kings, to stay in a hard environment. Tiara Rose thought, "Let''s give something back because I''m in the shape of relying on Pearl."


    Low humidity and very high temperatures where the sun is shining. But for that matter, the place in the shade seems to be relatively comfortable.


    Staying is a small city thriving around the oasis.


    In Sandrose, the size of one city at a time is small in itself, as the oasis serves as a base for life. Instead, there are a lot of cities.


    The buildings made of red brown bricks and the water that is the grace of the oasis flow all the way around the city - unfortunately, there is an oasis, but the water that flows into the city seems to have dried up.


    Tiara Rose gets off the carriage and stretches her back a lot. So much so that I accidentally breathe in the frivolous enthusiasm that it really strikes me.


    I took a few shallow, deep breaths to calm down.


    "... Phew. This is Sandrose."


    Tiara Rose puts her honey pink hair together in a low position and wears a wide hat with her twat. What you''re wearing is a lightweight, long-sleeved, striped, calm, one-piece dress with lace.


    "You''re not at all like Marine Forest. Wow."


    Even in previous life there were countries with deserts, but I have never actually visited them. For this reason, Sandrose was very fresh for Tiara Rose.


    Oasis, of course, but I''d also like to see the ore that''s actually called the Desert Rose.


    "Rose, do you want to go sightseeing before you go to the lodging?


    "Your Majesty Saravia...... I''m glad to hear that, okay?


    "Of course."


    approaching the smile, Saravia has made an attractive suggestion for Tiara Rose. Of course I want to do sightseeing, but can the royal family do that in this emergency when the oasis is starting to dry up?


    - Well, if His Majesty Saravia doesn''t mind?


    There is no need to speak out about what the royalty of another country does. If it''s a suggestion to take care of Tiara Rose, you just need to look a little bit and cut it up.


    "Okay, please"


    "Pleasure."


    "... but you can''t call Rose"


    "That''s too bad"


    While Filine and Elliot were getting ready for their stay, they decided to do sightseeing with four people: Tiara Rose, Keith, Pearl and Saravia.


    Isette, near Saravia''s side, has given us explanations and more about the Philinees.


    What came was an oasis that Tiara Rose wanted to see.


    In the heart of the city, water gushes out and plants sprout all around. Exactly, the term grace in the desert would fit perfectly.


    But now, under the influence of Salamander, the water in the oasis is diminishing.


    Indeed, if you look at it, you can see at a glance that there is no water to where it is in the waterway, so it is at a lesser level than usual.


    Plants don''t have a heart, either, or they don''t have energy.


    "Well, this is the oasis, huh? It''s not in Marine Forest, but it''s also quite beautiful."


    When Pearl leaves a step ahead, the people around the oasis scream about something.


    The appearance of silver hair on clear white skin is very noticeable. Even more so because Keith and Tiara Rose are with us.


    It''s the main character in the maiden game, so they''re all beautiful.


    Keith comes next to Pearl and asks him what he''s going to do.


    "What, you''re going to make it for Marine Forest too? But my realm is so full of nature, there''s no desert, is there?


    "I didn''t say I would make it.... Well, can I thank you for seeing something rare?"


    "Hmm?"


    Tiara Rose and Saravia, who were watching the two of them, also go under the pearl saying what the hell they were going to do.


    Then he made a proper sound to the water of the oasis and got his hands on it.


    "Hmm. The water temperature seems a little high, but it has an impact, so I can''t help it..."


    "Oh, the heat in the salamander is also increasing the temperature of the water"


    "That''s how it is."


    Apparently, Pearl is checking the water quality. Tiara Rose is impressed that you are the fairy king of the sea who directs the water.


    "Dear Pearl, do you know the state of the oasis?


    When Tiara Rose, concerned, speaks, Pearl says, "It''s not just water".


    "The beauty dries up because it''s not pleasant to watch..."


    Tell him so, and Pearl will gently contain his power in the waters of the oasis. Then the amount of water in the oasis that was gushing increased all at once.


    The water level rises as you look at it, and in no time, the water flows up to the waterway that leads to the city, filled with clear water by oasis.


    "Wow... Huh!


    Tiara Rose breathes when she is shown one scale of the fairy king''s power.


    But when I saw it, Keith didn''t shut up either.


    "I''m planning on staying in this city, and most importantly, I can''t just let Pearl dress good... sooo!


    "Keith!?"


    Keith holds the fan he was sitting on his hips and winds up. Then, now the plants that were growing around the oasis regained their energy and blossomed.


    I wonder if the blue and powerfully stretched plants have grown about a few centimeters.


    "Is this the power of the Fairy King... dull"


    "Yeah, very..."


    Saravia, whistling all the time, opens her eyes and looks at Keith and Pearl. I didn''t think it would be this easy to revive an oasis that started to dry up.


    The Tiara Roses are not the only ones who saw this sight, of course.


    Those around me are equally surprised and about to slip back into a miraculous phenomenon.


    "The water in the oasis is back!?"


    "What the hell kind of trick is that?!?"


    "Who the hell are those people?


    "I know you''re noble... but your skin is white, someone from another country?


    It keeps getting more and more important. With that in mind, Tiara Rose tried to speak to Saravia to talk to her about putting the place in place - but before that, it was a step ahead of those to whom Keith and Pearl had gathered.


    - What the hell are you going to do!?


    Will you tell him you''re the fairy king and put the place away? Tiara Rose is in a hurry to see if that confuses her.


    In fact, however, a different word came from the two of them than Tiara Rose had expected.


    "This grace was brought to you by Tiara Rose, Queen of Marine Forest"


    "Don''t forget to thank her mercifully, okay?


    The two men who said so went to both sides of Tiara Rose and uttered words praising Tiara Rose as if to take her hand and worship her.


    - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!?


    To an entirely unexpected development, I''d like to deny it, but I can''t disturb her as queen... Tiara Rose smiles patiently wanting to complain to Keith and Pearl.


    And as soon as I did, wow! and thriving voices echo around.


    "I''ve heard rumors about Master Tiara Rose! Rumor has it, you''re beautiful and lovely."


    "Does it have any special magic to revive the oasis?!?"


    "Wow, wow!


    When the residents are telling their mouths, one of them says, "Ah!" He roughed up his voice.


    "Your Majesty Saravia is here too!


    "True! I thought you were definitely going out after a woman... maybe you were running for me for an oasis?


    "You were...!


    Something is up to Saravia''s stock on its own.


    The blurring has grown even bigger and the crowd has grown. Then he signals by hand that Saravia will now step forward and be quiet.


    "As you can see, the oasis was resurrected with the mercy of Dear Tiara Rose. She came all the way from Marine Forest to attend the Festival of Fire and Water. When the festival is over, grace will return to all oases, so I want you to wait in peace"


    Saravia made me think that this event was entirely Tiara Rose''s doing.


    The gathered people are verbally thankful and happy to continue to be cheap. How dare you say that Tiara Rose herself has no such power?


    "Keith, Dear Pearl, why did you give my name..."


    Keith chuckles as Tiara Rose asks, tired.


    "Tiara is the one who can follow us, the fairy king. Just keep your chest up and be grand."


    "Mmm. I don''t care because you are blessed with straw."


    "... ok"


    If the two fairy kings have just said this, Tiara Rose can''t argue either. He had no choice but to accept it and make a smile and wave at the gathered inhabitants.


    "Ugh, I''m tired... Huh!


    At night, taking a breath in the lodging, Tiara Rose was thoughtless about the day and shaking the bag shaky.


    It''s double, and the big bag is full of ice and salt, and there''s a small different bag in it.


    Looking at it with some pitiful eye is Pearl, who was resting on the couch.


    "Philine, what''s he doing?


    "Making confectionery¡­ and I am asking"


    "Is that the sweet?


    Now my eyes are surprised and I say, "I don''t know why".


    But soon, Tiara Rose responded to the voice.


    "Dear Pearl, we can just do it, so let''s have it together. Philine, can you get Keith and Elliot, too?


    "You don''t have to."


    "Keith!"


    I tried to get them all to go get it for me to eat, and Keith just came on a transfer. There''s Elliot beside it, so I guess the two of us were just having a meeting.


    "Hmm, is that bag sweet...? I don''t know, you look like shit."


    "This is different, plus it''s the sweets in the bag inside!


    Don''t get me wrong, Tiara Rose gets mad at Keith.


    Then I take it out of the bag and put the sweets I was making - salt gelato on a plate and arrange it on the table.


    "Well, this is a strange thing. Sounds cold."


    I look at Pearl seriously and wonder if I can do something like this when I shake it......


    "It''s salt gelato. You can also take salt, so I think it would be perfect for a desert country sweet. Let''s have some filine with us."


    "Yes!"


    Including salt gelato in the mouth for all spreads a calming cold and sweetness in the mouth. It tastes very little salt, so it''s easy to eat.


    Pearl in particular seemed to like it and said, "This is fine!" and shines his eyes.


    "I''m glad you like it. Sandrose is hot, so you have to drink moisture and salt."


    "Oh, you''re going to eat this indefinitely"


    Keith, who quickly flattened out, laughs and demands a replacement. But I''ve already eaten what I made, so I''ll see you next time.


    "What, there''s no more"


    "You also make it in Marine Forest. I think it will be popular in the summer."


    "I do want to eat on a hot day. I''m looking forward to it, so you can call me first if you make it, okay?


    "You can call me frizz."


    Speaking of the Tiara Rosemary Forest Gelato project, Pearl as well as Keith have joined the story.


    With the fairy kings, it''s definitely a blast of popularity. Tiara Rose replies with a smile acknowledging that she should behave to the fairies as well.


    "Well, I''m done eating. Shall we take the day off? The Royal Palace in Sandrose is scheduled to take about five more days by carriage."


    "Right. Me or Pearl would be nice, but Tiara''s gonna fall in the heat if she doesn''t rest."


    "We have to be very careful."


    As a queen, I can''t believe you fell in another country.


    I am more careful to manage my health than I am in my own country because it annoys me everywhere. That''s why I have a lot of room for schedules.


    - I''m better with salt gelato, and I''m fine.


    "I''m not going to get sick or bother Aqua on my own this time."


    When Tiara Rose replied in a good mood all the while, Keith and the others laughed as if they were frightened.


    "You don''t always know what to do..."


    "It''s best to be adult."


    Somehow, they were two fairy kings who felt anxious.

 110 5. Welcome Feast

    Through several cities and villages with oasis, the Tiara Roses arrived at the palace of Sandrose.


    On a golden, round roof, walls built to circle around the perimeter are painted with murals. There is a wide waterfront in front of the stairs leading to the entrance, which is very cool.


    Tiara Rose shines her eyes and falls in love with her when she is amazing.


    "I never thought I''d get a chance to see Sandrose''s palace like this. Nice."


    "If you''re a kitten, I''ll always invite you."


    As he groans, Saravia immediately comes and laughs. Tiara Rose laughs bitterly, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no."


    "Your Majesty Aquasteed will be here in five days, so please keep Salavia at work until then. There''s a festival, isn''t there?


    "I''m still unconnected...... Well, no. Welcome to Tiara Rose, our Imperial Sandrose. Together with two fairy kings, let''s welcome them."


    Saravia, one step forward with a flurry, delivered a welcome word to the Tiara Roses behind the palace. It is as if the rays of the sun shining behind him are lifting him, the emperor.


    Tiara Rose also gracefully thanks her and once again utters her greeting.


    "It is a great honor to have you invited to a traditional ceremony. Not a long stay, thank you."


    "Oh. Anytime you have any inconvenience, tell me"


    "Thank you for your concern"


    Then... and Saravia invites the Tiara Roses to the palace.


    "It would have been hot and hard on the road, wouldn''t it? Get some rest first."


    "Yes, thank you"


    Next to the corridor, which is a passage, the water flows and the flowers that bloom in the water are planted and very beautiful. A more pleasant breeze tickles Tiara Rose''s cheek and feels quite cool when she is in the shade.


    Pearl, who sees it, shrugs, "That''s okay."


    "The water here seems to be under control. That''s just a palace."


    "It''s an honor to compliment Master Pearl."


    Saravia smiled and said, "Isn''t it beautiful?," he says.


    "Our country, as you can see, has a very large area of desert, but there is a lot of nature to feel the power of life. I''m sure you two will like that."


    "Right. Strawberries prefer nature as it is."


    Of course we may apply our own hands, but it is also King Pearl''s job to nurture the breath of life with care. Protect and guide fairies and watch over humans.


    Marine Forest today must be ideal.


    As I walked briefly guided by the palace, I quickly came to the front of the prepared room.


    "This is the kitten''s room, next to it is Master Pearl, Master Keith. Behind it, it''s ready to be used as a room for the sidelines and knights. Indoors, we have sun rose dresses, so be my guest."


    Despite the summer specifications, it would be somewhat hot in a Marine Forest dress...... and Saravia winks.


    "Thank you for your concern. Your Majesty Saravia will guide you..."


    "Well, sooner or later, this could be your kitten''s house, right?


    "I won''t!... Already"


    Tiara Rose immediately denies the deceitful cut back. Wrong doesn''t make it like living in this palace all the time.


    When the hell will you give up on yourself......


    "I''ll take a little break."


    "Oh. I''ll see you later"


    "Yes."


    Today, we are going to have a welcome feast at night.


    I''m purely looking forward to that, but sometimes it''s my first time visiting another country alone, and I''m nervous somewhere. Telling him to take a break for a while, Tiara Rose entered the room.


    When the sun had completely set, Keith came to Pearl''s room.


    A few servants looked up to the wind with a big fan and Pearl was just gracefully eating a treat while sleeping in a couch with low legs for a relaxing, cold drink.


    "You''re being graceful again."


    "What is it, Keith? I''m not just resting to get tired on the road."


    "I know you''re not that tired, but I do. I need to talk to Pearl, so you guys can back off."


    Pearl sits back and takes one breath as Keith lowers the servants.


    "What, you mean Salamander?


    "Oh, yeah"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Pearl seems to be thinking about what''s going on. When I saw him shut up, Keith muttered, "I knew it," too.


    You two seem to see the same thing.


    "... tell Tiara?


    "Well then... if I put extra tea in it, I can see him running anyway"


    "Then shut up."


    "Uhm."


    I just got my story together, and a knock sounds in the room.


    "Dear Pearl, it''s time for the feast"


    "Philine?... you can come in."


    "Excuse me. Was Master Keith with you? What can I do for you?


    Philine seems to have come to help with the support, as the feast begins.


    Pearl often thinks, but says, "I don''t need it." I have a dress as a fairy king, so I figured if I wore it, I wouldn''t have a problem.


    "I''m staying the same."


    "Yes, I did. Let''s go now that the guide is here."


    "Oh."


    "Uhm."


    Honey pink hair clumps to the side in a low position, lace vale on the head. The see-through exposed desert dress had a bold design that exited around the navel.


    And on his chest, he wears a pendant of red gems sent by Saravia. There are more ornaments than usual, and when Tiara Rose walks, there is a sound.


    The welcome feast that began opened with the dance of the Sandrose witches.


    Quiet, but powerful, they are the witches of this country. Dance for prayer is fantastic, very mysterious with moonlight.


    The ceiling of the guided hall has no roof in the central part and offers a full view of the starry sky and moon.


    Hospitality dishes arranged on the rug and fine wine. What a luxury, Tiara Rose stares at the witches in the front.


    Shan ringing bells and strings. And the song of love that lurks on it crosses the loneliness that has separated me from Aquasteed.


    It was a slow itinerary, so I left Marine Forest and arrived at this palace in eighteen days. Yes, Aquasteed hasn''t touched me in eighteen days, and he hasn''t asked me to call him by name.


    - I''d like to see Master Aqua.


    As I watched the dance with such worrying eyes, Saravia sat beside me and spoke.


    "This is a dance for Salamander. It''s sacred. It''s an honorable position with so many admiring women."


    "It''s a beautiful dance. I''m sure Salamander will be satisfied."


    Tiara Rose honestly shares her thoughts because she then wanted to see it for once. To be able to dance so much, come on. It would have been tough.


    - Speaking of which, the salamander is real, isn''t it?


    Without a doubt, Saravia, the emperor, should know that too.


    I know because Tiara Rose also asked Claire, but Saravia doesn''t know that this one is informative.


    I''d like to ask because I care, but I don''t think so either.


    If I could see you...... what would I think because I like maiden games? If it''s about this world, I want to know everything.


    Once the festival opens in a few days, the salamander recovers and falls asleep again. Then the next awakening could be hundreds of years¡­ a thousand years, if at all.


    - No, I promised Aqua I wouldn''t do anything unsolicited!!


    I can''t believe I want to see Salamander here. If I let him out, he''ll definitely be pissed off by Aquasteed later.


    I laugh when I see Tiara Rose with an unbearable look on her face about something, and what''s wrong with Saravia. What kind of facial expressions did you say you were watching inadvertently until earlier on?


    "... no. There''s a fairy king in my country, so I thought it wouldn''t be strange if Salamander, the Spirit of Fire, was real."


    There he is.


    "You''re not there... What?


    Ask Saravia if Tiara Rose is chatty and Salamander is real. Then they replied briefly in a joking tone.


    I''m sure you look terribly dumb. Saravia chuckles when she sees Tiara Rose, who has left her mouth open.


    "I have a fairy. Wouldn''t it be surprising if there were spirits of fire?


    "That''s well, yes...... Because it''s something I never heard of."


    "Oh, right. It''s a state secret."


    "Hey...... Huh!


    How dare you, this man!


    Tiara Rose is in a hurry, but Saravia is not in a panic at all. Is it not aware that it has divulged something important to the country?


    "Nothing, fine. Anyway, Rose, the fairy kings are aware of Salamander''s existence, right? No, it''s possible he knew. You live longer than we do."


    So nothing, Saravia says, is not going to stand weird against Marine Forest opponents.


    "Was it...... So this festival is for Master Salamander?


    "Oh. I''ll dance, you''ll have to take a good look. I''m sure we''ll fall back in love, huh?


    "Nothing to fall back in love with, I''m not in love with. Don''t be a jerk, Your Majesty."


    Tiara Rose gets angry because she won''t give up forever. But Saravia doesn''t mind that, she shifts her gaze to Tiara Rose''s chest. To be precise, a glowing red gem on its chest - to the tears of a salamander.


    "... what is it"


    "No? You''re wearing the jewels I gave you, so I thought you could expect a little."


    "That''s not what I''m going to wear!


    I just followed you because it''s a public place, but I don''t want you to take the liberty of making weird interpretations.


    "... Beautiful"


    "Huh?"


    Saravia''s hand reaches out on the lid and touches the necklace Tiara Rose wears.


    It can be seen that this magical gem is becoming more of a mix of Tiara Rose magic than it was when it was given. A warm light of serenity and kindness.


    Tiara Rose thinks she wants Saravia, who has begun to see the gem still, not to take it seriously because it''s embarrassing.


    "That''s a magical gem. By the day, the color of red is getting brighter and brighter... so beautiful."


    "Right. Rose''s magic combines to make her more radiant. Much more than when I had it."


    "... Huh!


    Tiara Rose didn''t miss seeing Saravia''s eyes narrowed and she looked at the gem in a nostalgic way.


    - Could this have been more important than value...?


    How can Saravia, who is always charming, stare at the jewels like this cut? Saravian sincerity, I don''t know.


    Tiara Rose chooses words so as not to show upset.


    "Was this jewel held by His Majesty Saravia?


    "Hmm? Oh, was I inadvertently whining? Yeah, it''s the jewel I''ve had since I was born. Unfortunately, I don''t think I deserved it."


    ¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose wonders if it doesn''t fit or not the gem.


    If it''s more of a decoration, it''s the same red color as Saravia''s eyes, so it looks better on her than it does on her own. Wondering, but asking why.


    "Even to His Majesty Saravia, I think it suits you..."


    "No, Rose looks better than me. A fairy-loved princess is loved by spirits."


    "That''s not..."


    Not knowing how to respond, Tiara Rose smiles vaguely.


    While I think it''s kind of weird how Saravia is doing, there are times when she doesn''t have Aquasteed, and it wouldn''t be a good idea to step in too much.


    ... a little, though worrying.


    Saravia takes the wine and turns her gaze from the gems to the witches dancing.


    "Seven days to the festival..."


    Tiararose thinks that the words of Saravia, who was pounded and grumbled, have an earlier reason for an indelible look. But from what I''ve heard, there''s nothing I can do.


    Though concerned, the feast closed without asking.

 111 6. Just one direct line

    "Oh, I want to see Master Aqua!


    "Dear Tiara Rose, do not fall asleep in that appearance"


    "Ah... right. Sorry, Philine."


    A voice of caution flew in from Filine as Tiara Rose dived back to her bedroom after the feast. The desert dress becomes wrinkled even though it washes.


    Tiara Rose sits on the sleeping table and breathes.


    "I know you want to see me, but I''m sure His Majesty Aquasteed is on his way here, too"


    "Right.... I was surprised that Aqua would go with a horse instead of a carriage to shorten the itinerary."


    Although I desperately stopped because of course I don''t want you to be so impotent.


    "It''s proof that you''re loved, Dear Tiara Rose. Do you want to change?


    "... because of this, maybe we should just stay like this for a bit longer. Although highly exposed, I''ve never had a desert dress before, so it''s fresh."


    "I would also like to show His Majesty the Aquasteed."


    "... that could be a little embarrassing"


    To Filine''s words, Tiara Rose smiles bitterly as she illuminates.


    If those golden eyes saw me seriously, what would happen? Definitely turning bright red with shame, Tiara Rose swells her cheeks.


    There''s nothing wrong with wearing it in public, such as a feast, but in front of someone I like, I really think of it that way.


    Having seen Tiara Rose like that, Filine thinks she definitely needs to make an opportunity for Aquasteed she couldn''t see. Don''t tell Tiara Rose about that, of course.


    "I''ll check on the hot tub."


    "Yeah, please."


    Dropping Philine out of the room, Tiara Rose leaves for the balcony.


    The room provided is on the third floor, and the view is great sometimes because of the full starry sky now. You can admire the gardens and streets of Sandrose''s palace.


    The air at night is a little chilly, but not enough to go back and get my jacket.


    And then, I remember the words Saravia said earlier.


    - Does Salamander exist?


    I didn''t think you''d tell me that much, so I accidentally laughed from Tiara Rose.


    "I want to see you, but you can''t let me get involved. We have to be patient."


    Saying so, relaxing and enjoying the night view, I saw blonde hair in a corner of my sight. Apparently, Saravia''s in the garden.


    Tiara Rose tilts her neck wondering what the hell she''s doing at this hour.


    As I followed Saravia with my gaze, I stepped to the waterfront. And keep walking down to the statue of the goddess set in the center.


    The statue of the goddess is a bit of a different brown color, so it was probably made from desert ore. He wraps cloth around beautiful limbs and prays for the earth.


    "... what are you doing?


    Maybe drunk? Yeah. Even if Tiara Rose gets caught, there''s no choice. Surely he must have been drinking quite a bit of wine.


    "Maybe I should tell someone...... But Philine''s taking it off."


    Uh-huh. Troubled, Saravia''s hand touched the statue of the goddess.


    Then, in light red, the statue of the goddess shines. Glow in the dark world It is so mysterious, as if it were a miracle brought about by a goddess.


    "Huh?"


    Tiara Rose blinks her eyes and looks seriously at Saravia and the statue of the goddess. He thought he was drunk was a total mistake.


    Isn''t that, yes - a ritual?


    "Awaken Master Salamander...... no, something to make him sleep again?


    Tiara Rose shook her head at her thoughts and denied that she would not need to be forced to wake up. Given the spirit of this festival, I thought you were doing something for Salamander.


    - But even though we still have a few days until the festival.


    "............ hmm?


    When Tiara Rose was still asking about Saravia, her body fluttered and swayed.


    "Your Majesty Saravia...... Huh!?"


    And as it were, Saravia collapsed with a proper splash.


    He seemed barely conscious and tried to get up... but he sat back in the water and relaxed. It doesn''t look like a strange situation whenever you lose your mind.


    "... Huh! No, not right away."


    As Tiara Rose rushes out of the room, Tarmo, who was escorting him in front of the door, gets a little.


    I''m a little impotent, but I don''t know what kind of a ladylike husband is panicking about from time to time. Tarmo first tried to open his mouth to ask what was going on, but immediately said, "I''m in a hurry!" and wandered at Tiara Rose''s temper, roughing her voice.


    But that''s why you can''t let your husband act without asking why. I wish it was Marine Forest, but this is another country.


    "But Dear Tiara Rose -"


    "Fine, I''ll follow you. You stay right here."


    "...... Huh!?"


    Talmo tried to advance, but was immediately grabbed by the shoulder from behind.


    "Oh, Master Keith!?"


    "You don''t know that my princess is an adult."


    Keith chuckles as he looks behind Tiara Rose, who rushes down the hallway. And slowly, I chased after her.


    The light that comes from the palace, and the moonlight.


    I wonder why you feel slightly brighter when there should only be those two. My skin is cold as ice because of the clothes that got soaked up with water.


    Saravia fell asleep to the water as she sat down and became a billionaire. Fortunately, it is shallow made, and it will not drown.


    "... go, Your Majesty!


    "Oh... Rose"


    I noticed a voice I heard from afar, and I think it should feel swollen and bright. Everywhere she is, it''s warm and full of light.


    "Sire Saravia, are you all right!?"


    "I can''t believe they saw me dressed badly..."


    "What are you talking about! I''ll be in my room in a minute!


    If you''re not kidding, Tiara Rose takes a sip of Saravia.


    I may touch my cold skin and get frostbite even as it is. I thought I needed hot water ready right away, and I tried to speak to a servant or a side that would be around me...


    "... why is there no one here when it''s a palace"


    "Because I paid for it? Then I guess I don''t want people to call me because I can''t be seen like this"


    "Huh? But in this situation..."


    It doesn''t look like Saravia can walk, so I have to carry it to someone. But when you don''t call people, you can''t help but move.


    - What should I do?


    That''s what Saravia was doing until she paid for it, so I guess it was pretty important. You can''t call people in the presence of Tiara Rose because they seem sick after falling over it.


    Because I might waste everything he was doing.


    "I''ll carry you. We''re moving."


    "Keith!"


    Sighing at him, he takes up Saravia, where Keith was falling.


    "Have you forgotten all those unscrupulous things?


    "This is not unscrupulous, it''s natural!? Because if people fall in front of you, you have to go help them"


    "Yes, sir."


    When Tiara Rose tells her it''s natural, Keith just walks out. Saravia is groaning painfully, but I don''t mind that.


    "Already, Keith... But thanks."


    My mouth told me something I wish I hadn''t helped, but this is how Keith came after me and took care of Saravia.


    Hearing the words of thanks, Keith replies only one word "oops" and raises his hand.


    "Let''s go. Sure looks like they''re ready to take a bath, so you can throw it in there."


    "Huh!? Exactly to His Majesty the Emperor. That''s abusive..."


    "I''m the fairy king, aren''t I?


    "Ah, yes..."


    Tiara Rose rushes to stop Keith, but it won''t come true if they argue he''s the Fairy King. It is generally assumed that fairy kings are higher than kings of one country.


    From the garden into the palace, it came as far as the baths that Filine had prepared for Tiara Rose.


    Hot water keeps your body warm even if you''re just in the bathroom. Saravia took a small breath, too.


    But more than anything else, Philine, who was in the bathroom, gave a voice that was surprised and not close to screaming.


    "-!? What the hell... Huh! Your Majesty Saravia!? Shh, I need a doctor right away...... Huh!!"


    "Wait, Filine. For now, I want you to keep this a secret."


    "What!?"


    At the same time Philine went under Tiara Rose and rushed to propose, the sound of Dobble and a huge splash rose. Looks like Keith really threw Saravia in the hot tub.


    "Gee ho, ho... ha"


    "You''re so weak. You have less magic, you''re so impotent."


    "Ha, ha... was it foresight"


    Answer Keith''s words with a grin that Saravia mocked herself for sitting in the hot tub.


    Apparently, Keith knows what Saravia was up to. Tiara Rose doesn''t know, but let Philine down for a second.


    There''s no way a Marine Forest person could inadvertently know what it was about because Saravia had gone without even telling Sandrose''s face.


    - Or should I leave the room, too?


    Tiara Rose thinks that the chilled Saravia should stay in the bath like this.


    So I thought I''d sneak out of the room, but there''s still a voice waiting for me from Saravia.


    "Hey kitty, isn''t it awful to leave me alone?


    "... because isn''t your Majesty Salavia soaking wet? I was wondering if you should take a break for a while."


    "But let me just say thank you, okay?


    Saravia still seems tired, but she has a slightly better complexion than earlier.


    Tiara Rose nodded bitterly, saying it was indeed rude to leave the room without telling her anything.


    "Thank you first. Thank you, thank you very much. Exactly like that, you could have frozen to death. Thank you for your time, Keith."


    "I''m really glad you''re okay."


    "I was just following Tiara instead of the escort."


    For a moment, Tiara Rose asks Saravia if she can listen.


    "So what the hell were you doing?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    But Saravia just smiles and doesn''t respond.


    - What don''t you want me to ask you?


    I''ll tilt my neck really hard and see Keith who seems to know exactly why.... and it seemed irrelevant to me.


    Totally Keith thinks... but what he said earlier about using too much magic caught me.


    - Could it have been that you were giving the Salamander magic?


    Tiara Rose thought so, although it might be simple. The act of giving magic to others is an iron plate development in the game.


    Besides, the timing is just right.


    Keith referred to Saravia as'' less magical ''.


    "Maybe... not enough magic to give Master Salamander?


    "-! What, you see anything for kittens"


    "Oh, it was just an anticipation... was it a hit?!?"


    "Like, predictions. So I dug a grave."


    I can''t believe you honestly answered Tiara Rose''s resulting whine when you said you were the Emperor of Sandrose. Saravia nods when she is still too tired of consuming magic.


    But more than Saravia, Tiara Rose is upset this time.


    - Yeah, is it okay that you don''t have enough magic?


    I wonder if it''s pretty important, my anxiety grows in Tiara Rose. According to Crayle and the others, you said the past was handled by the Sandrose royalty with no problems.


    - Oh, well.


    Because of Saravia''s low magic power, we cannot secure the amount of magic we have to give Salamander. If that''s the case, I can explain that Saravia''s collapse now... is also due to the use of too much magic, and Keith was right.


    "That, it seems to me, is there anyone besides His Majesty Salavia who can give the Salamander magic?


    "... unfortunately, I''m not here. Only a person with the right wavelength can give magic. Sandrose is just a direct royalty."


    "Oh no..."


    Tiara Rose frowns at the air that there is nothing she can do.


    And what I recall is the history of Sandrose.


    This country has been polygamous since its founding and is now known as a paedophile power. Tiara Rose thought lightly about it, I don''t like people who have more than one wife because I want to be alone...


    - But if I look at His Majesty Saravia now, I know exactly why.


    Isn''t it possible that polygamy was made in order to ensure a certain number of direct royalty?


    That''s because we need people to give us magic when the salamander wakes up. Perhaps the salamander who woke up in history fell asleep again, endowed with magic by several royalties.


    But now what?


    Isn''t Saravia the only royalty capable of giving magic?


    His parents are already in the other world, and he has no brothers. There is only one direct royal family now, Saravia.


    Though I said it was challenging...... what if there was really a reason for that? I have denied my duty as a royal of Saravia.


    Tiara Rose grips her fist for a long time and shames herself for thinking cheaply.


    Can''t you help me somehow?


    When I thought so, fuh-- the words Saravia told me come back to my brain.


    "A fairy-loved princess is loved by spirits, too."


    In a moment, I felt like I understood.


    Tiara Rose takes a small, deep breath and stares at Saravia.


    "Then let me dedicate my magic to the Salamander. I''m sure my magic will match the wavelength with the salamander.... is it not?


    "... no, it''s not. Really, don''t come to Kitten. I don''t know what to expect."


    That''s what I say, Saravia laughs.


    "Thank you. Kitten...... No, Tiara Rose"


    "Yes."


    Really, I guess Saravia couldn''t help herself. I bowed my head softly and thanked Tiara Rose for her offer.


    "It is said that the jewel that I gave comes from the tears of Salamander"


    "Is this it?


    "Yes."


    Tiara Rose sees a glowing gem on her chest, and I didn''t know it was worth that much...... and blues for having it.


    "It''s brighter and more beautiful than before, isn''t it? That''s because the kitten''s magic wavelength fits with the salamander and builds up a little magic on that gem."


    "That''s what this gem meant..."


    - Hmm?


    This means that from the beginning, it was determined whether Tiara Rose''s magic wavelength would fit the salamander.


    - Could it be that you came to Marine Forest for this?


    Saravia''s sincerity, which is usually challenging, is very difficult to understand - and Tiara Rose thought again.

 112 7. Belly Peco Salamander

    "Ha, I knew this was gonna happen"


    "Oh, I''m sorry. I''ve made up my mind..."


    Sighed Keith''s voice echoes into the wide aisle.


    Replying immediately to that is the voice of Tiara Rose, who is sorry.


    This is an underground temple where the desert formations have been transformed by the heat of the salamander, making it a special ore. - Yes, this is the road leading to Salamander''s bunk.


    From the walls and floors, the roses of the desert that can only be seen in the desert bloom. Its desert roses glow pale and illuminate wide passages.


    The three of us, Tiara Rose, Keith and Salavia, are just heading from the secret entrance hidden beneath the statue of the goddess to Salamander''s bunk.


    Saravia''s magic is not enough, so Tiara Rose decided to work together to give her magic.


    Much appreciated...... and Saravia sees Tiara Rose.


    "But if Aqua finds out, she''ll be angry, won''t she?


    "Ugh...... It''s, but... it''s a help, you know."


    It''s okay, Aquasteed is not that narrow-minded of a person. Tiara Rose nods so, but Keith makes tea from the side.


    "Be angry with me later."


    "Don''t be so mean...... oh, could there be a salamander at the end of that door?


    A luxurious door appeared before the Tiara Roses, who had been walking for some time. Inspired by the lizard of fire, the red gems are arranged on both sides.


    When Tiara Rose stopped her leg, Saravia put her hand on the door.


    "I''ll make sure, just in case, but when I open this place, I can''t go back. Are you sure?


    "Yes. Lady Salamander won''t fall asleep again without magic, will she? If you can help me, I''ll be happy to help you."


    "Okay."


    Salamander''s condition is like a hibernating animal, to say the least.


    Usually I sleep, and when I wake up, I get the magic I need to sleep again and go into hibernation. Saravia taught me when I came here that it was like a natural dish.


    Slowly opening the door, the hall widened in front of him.


    The corners of the circular room are lit with pine lights, illuminating the inside of the room. Looking up, the domed ceiling has a starry sky. Apparently, magic is applied so that you can see the actual sky.


    And in the center there was an altar, and a laying cloth stuffed in a cage placed on top of it - a small lizard sleeping round.


    "Dear Salamander...?


    Tiara Rose, who thought exactly that Keith and the others were taking human appearances like fairy kings, blinks her eyes. Salamander, I turned my gaze to Keith and Salavia to make sure he was the one.


    "Oh, that''s the salamander."


    "Sure, I feel the magic of fire... you''re weak"


    Saravia affirms, and Keith agrees.


    But I told Salamander there wasn''t much magic, and I saw Salavia.


    "I don''t have much magic, so I couldn''t give it much."


    "Through that statue of the goddess, you were giving the Salamander magic, weren''t you?


    "Oh. There are several ways to give magic to Salamander. That statue of the goddess is just the easiest way to give it away."


    Like now, a way to give magic to salamanders directly.


    How to give magic via the statue of the goddess.


    Tiara Rose is impressed that there''s a lot going on. I guess I''ve done a good job of managing information so the royalty won''t forget it for generations.


    - But are you sure you''re okay with my magic?


    I get anxiety about what to do if Salavia tells me it''s not a problem, but I actually meet Salamander and he refuses.


    Sometimes, he woke up with a salamander who seemed to have felt signs of people. Little lizard eyes move slightly and I''m going to look at this one.


    Keith shrugged, "Are you awake," and shrugged his shoulder, for God''s sake.


    "If the royal family had been decent, Tiara wouldn''t have gotten involved."


    "Ha, you have no words to give back"


    To Saravia, who smiles bitterly, Keith says, "Why?" and cast doubt.


    "If Tiara is going to give you magic, of course she''s going to get it in return. Look, if I get magic, I won''t forgive Aqua, of course.


    "Oh, speaking of which, I didn''t decide anything..."


    Hearing Keith''s words, Tiara Rose scolds herself that she was inadvertent.


    I offered to help people, but this is a national problem. Exactly the lack of merit here could certainly have been cheap behavior as a queen.


    I''m not asking you to give me disappointment in return, but I just want some benefit for Marine Forest.


    Saravia chuckles.


    "Fine. Whatever Rose wants, let''s have it ready."


    "What, no, I don''t have that much to want..."


    Tiara Rose thinks it would be a good idea to leave this matter to Aquasteed.


    "I will decide that after Master Aqua arrives. It will be like a dashi after the reward..."


    "I don''t mind. As much as Aqua doesn''t make unscrupulous demands, I know."


    "Yes."


    A brief summary of the conversation led Salamander to jump out of the cage and come before the Tiara Roses.


    The red skin has scales, which may look lizardly but are also close to dragons. I''m going to Saravia, Tiara Rose and Keith''s feet and making sure something smells like it.


    You liked Tiara Rose among them, and the salamander wrapped around her legs.


    "Wow! What can I do¡­¡­!?"


    I never thought I''d be missed so much.


    Saravia seems kind of happy with the rushing Tiara Rose. Maybe the salamander was relieved to make sure he was well.


    "A very good wavelength of magic. Will you give it to me?


    "Talk...!? Oh, my name is Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest. I offered my cooperation to His Majesty Salavia, and if I could share my magic with Salamander..."


    "Ho, right! I felt the magic of Saravia earlier, but it wasn''t enough to maintain my body."


    Looks like Saravia''s magic wasn''t enough, after all.


    "I''m not hungry! As it is, there is not enough magic to control the power, and this land will burn. ''


    "Wouldn''t that be tough!!"


    I was wondering what would happen if Salamander didn''t sleep again, but I didn''t know it would be that bad of a misery......! Tiara Rose roughs her voice and looks at Saravia as if she stares at her.


    "Why didn''t you ask for help sooner! I''m talking about His Majesty Saravia, so you knew at the stage where you gave me this gem!?"


    If the power of Salamander runs wild and Sandrose is engulfed in scorching heat, people will no longer be able to live in this land. Worst case scenario, if the timing isn''t right, even the dead might get out.


    If you cannot fulfill your duty as royalty by yourself, Tiara Rose resents what you will do without using what is available.


    Saravia accidentally pounds on Tiara Rose, an unusual sword screen.


    And at the same time, I''m grateful that you''re so worried and scolded for yourself.


    "For once, even I have a wife."


    "Your wife''s hand? You mean you can handle it?


    "Sort of. But I was born with less magic... and to be honest, it''s tough."


    Hearing Saravia''s words, I see... Tiara Rose is convinced.


    If you have the means to solve the worst case scenario, I can understand that I will do it myself whenever possible.


    It''s just not something I would have accumulated as a Tiara Rose if I had fallen in front of you with that.


    As Tiara Rose and Saravia talk, a salamander floating in the universe waves his tail boring.


    "I''m not hungry. Does Tiara Rose and them end up feeding us magic?


    "Er... I have His Majesty Saravia, just a little from me"


    Then Tiara Rose sees Keith, who I''m sure will have no problem with.


    "I disagree in the first place.... Well, I''ll leave the judgment to Tiara. It''s not like you''re gonna die. Just let it go."


    "Really? Then I''ll give my magic to Salamander as planned."


    This will not burn Sandrose, nor will Saravia force him to fall.


    "Go ahead, Master Salamander"


    "Umm."


    Tiara Rose touches Salamander''s little hand and slowly hands over the magic that is inside her.


    Close your eyes and you can feel the magic changes you''ve had since birth.


    Sometimes a villain warrant lady, originally Tiara Rose didn''t have that much magic to handle, and she falls into the category of bad magic.


    But he came to Marine Forest and was blessed with fairies and their kings, and his magic grew without realizing it. As a matter of fact, it now has enough magic power not to take a pull on the main character.


    Salamander rocks his tail and seems happy with Tiara Rose''s magic.


    Gungu Magic is sucked, isn''t it just too much to take...... and Tiara Rose is confused. I should have told you a little first, but I laugh bitterly.


    "Dear Salamander, it''s time..."


    ''Hmm? But I''m almost full... no!


    "Yikes!


    "Tiara!?"


    Because the magic of Tiara Rose was so delicious, the salamander took the magic of Tiara Rose at once.


    Quickly Keith takes Tiara Rose''s hand and pulls her towards herself to help - one step, it was too late.


    "- Huh!? Lie, why... Huh!


    "Damn!


    From the recoil, which took away too much magic, Tiara Rose''s body became smaller within a glance. The figure has gone from a beautiful woman to an adorable six-year-old or so.


    Big eyes are tight, small hands are tight and seem comfortable to touch. Wrap the cloth part of the desert dress you were wearing around your body because your body has shrunk.


    "What''s going on!?" tears Tiara Rose as Keith hugs her.


    "Better than being sucked out of magic and decaying."


    "That was such a tough situation!?"


    "Oh. Before they sucked up all their magic and died, they must have made up for the part of the foundation they were building their bodies on as magic."


    Keith told me the horrible fact that it was safe for Salamander to suck whatever magic he wanted.


    "Nevertheless - Tiara wouldn''t have told me to give you so much magic, would she? Salamander."


    ''... not bad. What makes you want to eat if you have delicious magic in front of you''


    It wasn''t the little lizard that was ahead Keith stared at.


    True to the opposite of Tiara Rose, Salamander was a luscious beauty.


    Spirit of Fire, Salamander.


    brown skin and eyes as beautiful and strong as ruby. The red hair tied together in one is so brilliant and so illusory that I imagine it''s burning.


    The highly exposed desert dress makes her limbs more accentuated with finesse and plumpness. Even if you''re not a man, your eyes will nail you.


    Salamander drew his mouth in an arc and said, "I''m hungry."


    Seeing that, Tiara Rose is confused not knowing what to do.


    - Bloated stomach means you spared Sandrose''s demise for now, right?


    But now I still have the question of whether my appearance will go back to adulthood properly. Will I grow up if I rest and my magic recovers, or do I have to do something?


    Tiara Rose gets anxious and sees Keith.


    "... Hey Salamander. Return the magic you took. If Tiara stays like this, she''ll be in trouble."


    ''I don''t want to! I''m hungry, and I don''t want to be hungry again. "


    "If it were magic, Saravia would give it to the festival. So be patient."


    "Yikes!


    Even as Keith tells in his anger-containing voice, Salamander turns that way. And as it were, he disappeared from this place.


    "- Huh!?"


    "Chip, metastasized..."


    Amazing Tiara Rose and Keith pounding her tongue.


    Speaking of the remaining Saravia, it seems to have become more than what he had assumed, holding his head.


    "I can''t believe this is happening.... Little kitten is cute too"


    "Don''t be ridiculous, Your Majesty! Lady Salamander has gone somewhere, but what can I do..."


    "I''ll show my face at the festival, so I can meet you there at worst.... will the kitten go back to normal when she sleeps and rests and her magic is restored, or do I have to ask the salamander to return her magic"


    Saravia tells me she doesn''t know at the moment. That seemed the same to Keith, who nodded even though he didn''t like it.


    "I''m going back to my room for a second."


    "Yikes!


    Keith took Tiara Rose alone to the room.


    In the furious unfolding, it was completely dark outside, and it was late at night when everyone noticed.


    But Keith didn''t mind, so he moved to Tiara Rose''s room and called three people, Pearl, Philine, and Elliot.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, what the hell - Dear Tiara Rose?


    Philine, who had just come to the room, vandalized her voice in tears, but she is confused because she does not see her own husband.


    I just thought you and Keith were back together.


    Instead, though an adorable child very similar to his own husband is held in Keith''s arms.


    When Keith tells him "Are you here," he hands Philine the tiara rose he was holding.


    Let me get dressed.


    "Yes. Yes, sir..."


    Hugged by Filine, Tiara Rose breathes relief.


    "Um, I''m sorry, Philine. It''s me..."


    "... after all, you were Dear Tiara Rose"


    "You know!?"


    "Because you were what you were when you were a child."


    I kind of miss you, and Filine smiled.


    Go to the bedroom in the back of the main room to change clothes. But the question is, do you not have clothes for children?


    Tiara Rose was put down on the sleeping table and saw the distressed filine.


    "I don''t have clothes for kids, so I have to source them somewhere..."


    "Oh, right"


    Exactly at this hour, the palace servants would also be resting.


    But I can''t even keep my rash clothes on Tiara Rose, so it would be nice to find someone on the night shift to deal with.


    That''s what Filine thought, and the bedroom door opened and the pearl came. Apparently, I asked Keith about the situation.


    "It''s got Keith on it, but it''s not sloppy."


    "... I have no words to give back. But this is my decision, and Keith is not bad."


    "I couldn''t protect you, so it''s the same."


    If that''s what they say, there''s nothing I can do.


    "Sorry for the inconvenience"


    "Well, it''s good to have passed.... If you''re a servant, you don''t always dress sloppily."


    ¨D¨D


    When Pearl closed the fan in his hand, Tiara Rose''s clothes turned out to be the right size. This is a lovely water-colored dress with pearls and lace.


    I get an unexpected exclamation.


    "Very nice...... Thank you, Dear Pearl."


    "For one thing, your lord is better off sleeping. Now that you''re exalted, you may not have noticed, but the magic is all over you, right?


    "Oh, right..."


    It''s a pile to think about, but one of the things you have to do is sleep and restore your magic.


    Because Pearl told me, I get more and more drowsiness. I bet you''d be happy if your eyelids got heavy and you fell asleep on the bunk like this.


    Seeing Tiara Rose, who began to groan as soon as possible, Filine tells him to "rest now".


    Gently stroke Tiara Rose''s head and lay her body down. When I gently applied the light towel kettle as it was, I could hear him sleep easily. Apparently, I fell asleep at this moment.


    "You were tired, Dear Tiara Rose..."


    "There is no magic, so naturally. We''ll have a discussion over there, so I''ll have some tea."


    "Yes, sir."


    After Tiara Rose fell asleep, Keith and the others decided to share information today and what to do in the future.

 113 8. City Sightseeing in the Small Tiara Rose

    The next day, Tiara Rose woke up at a time when the day was higher.


    I rubbed my nagging eyes and would surely be comfortable if I slept twice...... I think so - haha.


    "Yes, I''m getting smaller... and staying smaller!


    I slept overnight and tried to restore my magic, thinking maybe my body was back to normal, but apparently that was sweet.


    Because Tiara Rose was making a scene, or the bedroom door opened and Filine came in.


    "Good morning, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Philine! Good morning.... I''ll stay small."


    "... to Master Keith, I asked what the situation was. I will do everything in my power to support Master Tiara Rose, so let''s find a way to get back to normal!


    Tiara Rose weeps carefully at Filine, who smiles fine. How can you be so sweet when this has happened with a decision you''ve made on your own?


    I''m not surprised you scolded me.


    Tiara Rose stepped off the sleeping table and hugged Philine all the time.


    "Thank you, Philine. I always leaned on you, and I''m sorry I bothered you so much."


    "That''s not true. Was Tiara Rose done to save His Majesty and Salamander? You can never boast of it, and you can never disdain it."


    "... yeah"


    Give Philine a gentle hug and be wrapped in relief.


    Rubbing his nose, Tiara Rose smiled and turned to Philine. Then he immediately wipes his eyes and nose with a handkerchief.


    "Your pretty face is ruined."


    "... I won''t cry anymore"


    "Yes. Shall we take a bath and get dressed?"


    The bathroom provided in the back of the bedroom is smaller than it should be, but is free to use it.


    Warm up the tired body, carefully wash the hair that had been slightly sanded, and finally give an oil massage to change into a child-sized dress.


    What was available was a sea dress with a different design pearl than yesterday. The knee length makes it easy to move, but it has a large bow.


    "You''re so cute, Dear Tiara Rose. What should I do with my hair?"


    "I don''t think it''s okay to stay like this..."


    "Because you look like a child, you think you can make it cute."


    Tiara Rose''s opinion was dismissed in a rush, and Filine messes with her hair. The dough is good, and the three braided knits are adorable. But then there''s nothing wrong with being an adult.


    Fix your hair as you think about it, more than a dozen minutes. I can do my hair today.


    "... it''s done!


    "... Exactly, what do you think?


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at herself in the mirror.


    It''s a twin tail tied with ribbons from a high position on both sides. Sure, I don''t think I would do this to myself as an adult, but it''s quite embarrassing.


    - Because it looks like a child, it doesn''t look good... I don''t mean...


    I wonder if that''s okay, I laugh bitterly.


    "It looks great on you, Dear Tiara Rose. It''s okay."


    "Really? Then this will do. Thank you, Philine."


    After this, we have a lunch in the name of breakfast, an operational meeting to put our bodies back together. At any rate, we have to get back before Aquasteed arrives at Sandrose.


    Running on horses with little time off, I was finally able to cross the border into the Sandrose Empire.


    Aquasteed wipes the flowing sweat and raises his voice, "Let''s take a break".


    "Rest in that oasis over there, Your Majesty Aquasteed. We have a cold drink for you."


    "Oh, let me do that"


    Take a breath and lower your back to the roots of the trees that are just in the shade.


    After finishing work early because Tiara Rose was worried, she would be able to get to Sandrose''s Palace about two days earlier than planned.


    Nevertheless, both humans and horses are quite drained in this heat. I have no problem with this because I am taking a serious break, but I will have to give enough time off to the knights who are accompanying me after this visit.


    As Aquasteed photographed his gaze into the water of the oasis, the surface of the water was glittering reflecting the sun''s light. It''s very beautiful and I don''t feel like something strange is happening at first sight.


    Even the water level doesn''t look so low...


    The Marine Forest knights don''t know what''s going on with Sandrose, so they indulge in the water of the oasis "cold and pleasant".


    I sweated cold when I heard the anomaly from Isira through the sea fairy, but for this minute I wouldn''t have a problem.


    Sometimes I asked Claire about Salamander, and Isira and I have already shared information. The fairies should calm down soon.


    "... I want to see you soon"


    What came from Aquasteed''s mouth, which moistened his throat with cold things, was his thoughts on his beloved wife.


    It''s been sixteen days since we broke up. I was wondering if you were okay with some of it, but it''s outrageous. He wants to meet and hug quickly and feel its warmth, and he falls into a similar sensation to dryness.


    "Tiara......"


    Call your name and think of what you''re going to be doing now.


    Would you be hitting the tongue drum on Sandrose sweets? Or would you be admiring a desert rose, a rare ore, or watching a witch dance?


    Even if I''m wrong, I''d like to think there shouldn''t be any cases going on.


    "Tomorrow, Sandrose''s Palace."


    Aquasteed stood up to leave and spoke to the knight.


    There were five gathered in the room given to Tiara Rose: her husband, Tiara Rose, Keith, Pearl, Philine and Elliot. Tarmo is on guard in front of the room.


    Keith looked at Tiara Rose, who remained small, and sighed, "I knew it".


    "You can''t go back to normal until you take the magic back from Salamander."


    "No... Master Salamander doesn''t know where he is."


    "Saravia said she''d show up at the festival, so you''ll have to wait for it"


    We may be able to force him to drag him out with force moves, but if it''s even a battle, it could damage the palace as well. Thinking about it, this is not a very good idea.


    Seeing Tiara Rose fall apart, Pearl says, "You don''t deserve it."


    "You just have to wait until the festival and get mad at Aquasteed for coming here"


    "Ugh...... somehow, I want to get it back before Master Aqua gets here!


    It worries me, and most importantly, I don''t want to look like one of these kids.


    I told you I wouldn''t take all that personally, you Arisama. Maybe I get stunned and captured by affection... something like that.


    If that happens, you won''t be able to get back on your feet for the rest of your life. So somehow, I want the magic back before Aquasteed gets here somehow.


    Hearing Tiara Rose''s appeal, Keith and Pearl worry.


    And while Pearl put a fan in his mouth, he mouthed a certain suggestion.


    "Then let the king of Sandrose treat you like one. If he is, can he cross over to Salamander?


    "To His Majesty Saravia? Right, I''m going to ask.... or what happened to His Majesty Saravia after that?


    I realize that I have no idea what Saravia is up to since Tiara Rose got smaller, although she was totally out of her mind.


    If I remember correctly, they should have left me on Salamander''s bunk.


    It was Elliot who answered the impatient Tiara Rose inquiry.


    "If it was His Majesty Saravia, we would have been entertained by guests from other countries in the morning."


    "Really... you''re safe"


    If it had fallen again...... and I was a little worried.


    But when I heard Tiara Rose say it, Keith laughs, whoa.


    "You''re worried you''re getting smaller because of him"


    "... I am the one who said I would give you magic, so it is not because of His Majesty Saravia that I have become this figure. Because of Salamander, I will not blame His Majesty Salavia."


    Sounds like Tiara.


    Then you can do whatever you want, Keith tells you.


    "I couldn''t have expected Salamander to take my magic away from me, but I''m not going to do this again next time. You''re going to Saravia''s, aren''t you?


    "Yes, of course!


    Tiara Rose held her fist for a long time and decided to go see Saravia.


    - Of, but things aren''t going so well.


    "I can''t believe I can''t see you right away..."


    Tiara Rose swells her cheeks when she usually comes to see her on her own even if she doesn''t want to.


    I saw that. Filine grinned bitterly and prepared me cold lemonade and gelato.


    "I have no choice, because His Majesty Saravia is also busy.... Of course, I would like you to give priority to Master Tiara Rose..."


    That''s what I said, Filine, smiling but not her eyes laughing.


    "It means we can take time at night, but it''s not time to meet the queen of another country!


    "... I have no choice. What countries other than Marine Forest are also invited to this festival. As emperor, it is only natural that His Majesty Saravia should be dealt with."


    Rather, I appreciate you taking the time, albeit at night.


    The preparation of the festival, the hospitality of the guests, the problems of the salamanders and the fact that Salavia has a lot to do unexpectedly.


    Tiara Rose drinks lemonade and makes her face shine "delicious".


    Even more gelato is available, which makes me think a hot country is a good thing. Although indoors use demonic props to regulate the temperature.


    "Speaking of which, I have time until tonight...... what do you do? Keith and Pearl said they wanted to go sightseeing in the city."


    "To the city? ¡­ well, there''s nothing to do in the palace, why don''t we go to the city"


    "Yes."


    As well as making the city, Sandrose is very different in terms of what it sells, culture, and history. It would be very much to learn to actually see that in your own eyes.


    Tiara Rose came to the city with four people: Keith, Pearl and Philine.


    There are oasis trees growing all over the city and water gushing out of several places. Apparently, this is a city that could have come from multiple oases.


    The amount of water in the oasis flowing into the city is sufficient, and the sight I saw while I was away seems to be a lie.


    Tiara Rose stares, is that it? and tilt his neck.


    "Maybe the water level is back."


    "Hmm, so be it. Salamander was filled with the magic of Tiara Rose, so I guess it''s back to normal."


    Pearl, who answered Tiara Rose''s question, looks around the city.


    "The water level will go down again for a while when you take back your magic to undo it. But that magic is all the emperor of this country has to give."


    Nothing. Pearl says Tiara Rose doesn''t need to think about anything.


    "... hmm? What''s that?


    "Huh?"


    It was a pearl that showed a serious looking atmosphere, but I turned my gaze to a certain point.


    When Tiara Rose and the others saw it, they apparently sold stalls. What they sell is a cold drink with tapioca in it.


    Pearl seems to have never seen it before, and she is softening like she drank it.


    "You''ve got weird grains in you."


    Keith didn''t even seem to know, which sounds strange.


    "That''s a tapioca drink. Uh... it''s made from potatoes called cassava. I think that''s in sweet coconut milk."


    "Yam...? I thought it was nuts or something."


    "You look like a nut."


    It''s a small grain, so I wonder if few people know that that one is made of potatoes.


    When Tiara Rose went to the stall, the shopkeeper, who apparently was just listening, spoke to her.


    "Young lady, you know so much about it, even though it''s small. That''s great."


    "Because tapioca drinks have a great crumbling texture! I didn''t know it was a popular drink in Sandrose¡­ it''s a big discovery"


    Tiara Rose enthusiastically says she would love to buy Cassava and go home and also make tapioca drinks at Marine Forest.


    "Ooh... you lady really like tapioca. Uh... you want to buy it?


    "Oh, I was. Can I have four?


    "Yes, sir."


    Filine gives the money and everyone receives coconut milk with tapioca.


    A sip first spreads the sweetness of the rich coconut. Sweet but refreshing and very easy to drink. He has made it since he broke the coconut, and it''s cold very well.


    "Oh, delicious..."


    "Mmm, this is pretty good."


    Next to the lukewarm Tiara Rose, Pearl also drinks satisfactorily. Apparently you like it, can''t you buy coconut and go home? And I''m even seriously considering it.


    But it is Tiara Rose who endorses it.


    "Nice, would be great if Marine Forest had coconut......!


    "That''s right! I hope there''s such a thing as Cassava. But given the climate, it''s quite... No, should I talk to Keith about this"


    Look at the two shags, Keith does coconut milk for Christ''s sake. Although it does taste good, I don''t want to drink so much because it''s sweet.


    Maybe they''ll talk to me later, but then I can sell Pearl a favor... and I think Keith did.


    The next thing the Tiara Roses headed for was the desert garden, one of the tourist destinations outside the city. This is a very fantastic and beautiful place with lots of desert roses made from ore occurring naturally.


    One of the sights is the variety of ornaments available nearby, such as accessories made of desert rose ore.


    - I was also seen in the basement of the palace, but I knew it was different when I saw it in the desert.


    After seeing the desert roses all the way, ornaments and more take you to the stores.


    "Wow, big... you also sell real desert roses"


    I thought I was just admiring the natural stuff, but it didn''t seem like it. As Tiara Rose looked with admiration, the clerk woman said, "Isn''t that amazing? I''ve spoken to him."


    "They say it took me about a hundred years to do this."


    "A hundred years too...... It''s bigger than my height."


    "That''s true. If you''re a little girl, you''d better have something smaller. It''s a popular amulet."


    What was on the guided shelf was a tiny, colourful desert rose.


    Different descriptions are given for each color and the effect is written.


    The one with a strong yellow flavour is Golden Luck. What''s reddish is love luck. Anything close to blue, good luck.


    "It''s very popular with women."


    "You are. She''s cute, so why don''t I buy one too?"


    As Tiara Rose watches, she realizes that Filine is watching a brooch of reddish desert roses. Apparently, you''re into romantic luck stuff.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Unexpectedly Tiara Rose stared, realizing her gaze, Filine''s body jumped in a freak.


    "No, um... I was just watching, wasn''t I?


    "No, I wouldn''t hesitate.... Yes, I will give it to you!


    I always take care of Filine, so I''m so glad she can give me what I want.


    I just grab two red desert roses and I''ll do the accounting. The second, of course, is Elliot''s share. I want you to put on a friendly matching brooch and be happy soon.


    Keith sees a product in the store appropriately, but Pearl was buying a desert rose necklace that would be an amulet.


    "Yes, Philine. Give Elliot the other one."


    "Thank you, Dear Tiara Rose"


    Tiara Rose smiles contentedly when she sees Philine happily received it.


    When he sees the shopping done, Keith hugs him about Tiara Rose saying, "We''re going next." Apparently, he thought that if it was a child''s leg, he would carry it because it was too late.


    "Is there somewhere Keith would like to see it?


    "Me? Nothing in particular. I don''t even know about Sandrose, and I don''t know where Tiara wants to go."


    "Then let''s take a look around the city"


    "Okay."


    If you have a place or shop you care about, you just need to take a moment to look.


    Thus the Tiara Roses took their time and enjoyed the sightseeing of Sandrose.


    Standing asleep easily, he is like an angel descending from the sky.


    Tiara Rose, completely exhausted by tourism, was in deep sleep in Keith''s arms when she returned to the palace.


    It''s Filine who''s smiling at it.


    "When your body is a child, does the rhythm of life fit with it?"


    "If you look like this, you won''t have the strength."


    If I were an adult Tiara Rose, I wouldn''t have had anything to sleep about.


    I received her mumbling from Keith, and Filine was just about to take her to her bedroom... where she was called from behind.


    "Kitten!


    "Your Majesty Saravia... I''m sorry, now..."


    "Oh, are you asleep? I''m here because I''ve got time..."


    It''s pathetic to wake you up just like that, when Saravia tried to stroke Tiara Rose''s hair - and Keith grabbed her arm before that hand touched her.


    "Whose permission are you trying to touch?"


    "Oops - excuse me for this, Fairy King of the Woods"


    Saravia puts her hands up and mouths a brief apology.


    "Tomorrow morning, I set aside some time. Can you tell Tiara Rose that at that time...?


    "Oh, I don''t mind"


    I decided to shift my plans for today to tomorrow, and the Keiths took Tiara Rose back to the room.

 114 9. The Battle of Women

    Near lunch the next day, Tiara Rose was finally able to talk to Saravia.


    The place is a guest room like a guest, sitting on the couch opposite each other. Keith and Pearl are behind Tiara Rose, and Izette is holding back behind Saravia.


    "Hey, but you''re really cute. Adult kittens were beautiful too, but they look adorable too"


    "... don''t tell me about Salamander, because it''s good about me. I can''t stay like this, so I want to go back."


    When Tiara Rose says so, Saravia laughs bitterly.


    "Right...... Sure, if you''re gonna be my wife, you better look like an adult."


    "Sire Saravia, I am serious!


    If you''re kidding me any more, Tiara Rose will not forgive me.


    "I''m sorry. I can get Salamander to meet me, but it might be pretty hard to negotiate to give me back my magic."


    "It''s..."


    "Even I hung up on you to give back the magic of your kitten....... but his reply is not very colourful"


    He said the negotiations would still continue, but the situation was rather harsh.


    I wonder if Tiara Rose has any way... but I can''t think of a good idea. Is it not possible in a way that gives little by little, not enough magic at once?


    That way, we can handle Saravia and there''s no need for Tiara Rose to remain small.


    "In the meantime, do you want me to call Salamander?


    "Right...... Can I ask you a favor?


    "Oh."


    When Tiara Rose nodded at Saravia''s suggestion, the knock sounded just as if she had anticipated the timing.


    "Hmm? I told you not to disturb anyone..."


    "It could be an urgent requirement, right?


    When Saravia glanced at the door and Izette responded...... it was Aquasteed who was due to arrive in two days.


    "What!?"


    The most surprising thing about it is, of course, Tiara Rose.


    Keith and Pearl seemed to know by the signs, flat even when Aquasteed sees them.


    "Pretty soon, huh?"


    "Somehow, yeah.... What about Tiara?


    Before saying hello, Aquasteed realizes he doesn''t have the person he''s after. I thought Keith and Pearl, plus Saravia, couldn''t have been without Tiara Rose.


    Saravia laughs at the way it looks.


    "Aqua really likes kittens."


    "Because it''s my wife. Your Majesty Saravia seems to be in the same mood as ever...... hmm?


    Tiara Rose, which is solidified in a cocoon on the couch, appeared in Aquasteed''s eyes.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I see. I want to hold my head, but I''ll put up with it a lot longer there.


    "This is another lovely young lady."


    "-!"


    - Hih, Master Aqua has spoken to me!!


    Whatever you do, Tiara Rose''s head is in disarray. I never really talked to him, but would Aquasteed like kids?


    Or will they hate themselves for taking this upon themselves?


    The anxiety I had in mind pushes me at once.


    As Tiara Rose was about to answer, she saw Aquasteed as Saravia teased her.


    "Me and my kitten''s daughter."


    "Don''t make stupid jokes"


    "I''m sorry about Nori"


    Aquasteed goes all the way under the little tiara rose and gently hugs its body.


    "That guy only tells jokes, so you better not deal with him"


    "Huh!


    "Yeah? You could hold me up, didn''t you?


    "Yes, no eh! Love it......!


    I feel Aquasteed right around the corner because of the hug. The pleasant smell was very reassuring, and Tiara Rose probably shook her head before hugging her all over its neck.


    Until just now, I''ve been thinking about how to get through this situation, but I can''t be touched anymore. ''Cause I missed Aquasteed and I couldn''t help but miss him.


    "That''s good"


    Aquasteed smiles and gently strokes Tiara Rose''s head.


    "That''s cute, Twin Tails. Beautiful hair too."


    "Huh?... Oh, thank you"


    Praised by the pretense, Tiara Rose has an unexpected fever in her face.


    And the word could come up in the back of my brain...


    - Dear Aqua, don''t you even realize I''m here?


    Maybe you think it''s some kid.


    - Right, it''s impossible that people''s bodies will be smaller if they think about it normally.


    When Tiara Rose is elsewhere, she concludes she thinks so. While relieved that he wasn''t immediately pissed off, Tiara Rose indulges in him holding onto Aquasteed.


    - You look like a kid, so you''ll be fine for a little while, right?


    I can''t be ashamed of myself if I look like an adult, but if I were a child, I would be critically forgiven.... Well, other than Aquasteed, he finds out it''s Tiara Rose.


    "Do you want to be sweet? How old?"


    "Uh, six years old..."


    "Right. So, are you a fine lady already?


    "Yes! Absolutely."


    Tiara Rose nods instantly at the words of the dull laughing Aquasteed. I can''t afford to waste my time being told I''m a lady and I''m just a kid.


    Keith laughs at the reaction. Speaking of Tiara Rose, she puts a finger to her mouth and sends a gesture called ''Shh'' that if she laughs, she may say it''s herself.


    "Yeah? What''s up, Tiara?"


    "No, nothing...... what, eh!? Did you even notice me?!?"


    Lightly Aquasteed calls me by my name and blues my face for what I had found out for so long. I was happy and hugged until now, but I feel like it collapsed in a flash.


    "Yes, since when..."


    When Tiara Rose asks Aquasteed with a trembling voice, she asks for an answer.


    "From the beginning"


    "Saiso!?"


    "You said you''d know about Tiara, didn''t you?


    "Ugh..."


    Speaking of which, I do recall that when I took a walk in the morning garden, I was told, ''I know a lot about Tiara''.


    I can''t believe you know it''s not just thoughts, but even if they look different......! and.


    But if you do, Tiara Rose will behave in one way.


    "Oh, I''m embarrassed... I''m going down, please put me down..."


    "Huh? It was so sweet."


    "If you think Master Aqua is a child, well... what a thought. I''m so embarrassed right now, everyone is watching!


    Rammed in Aquasteed''s arms, Tiara Rose manages to escape and go down to the floor.


    "If Aqua also noticed, don''t do anything confusing..."


    "Sorry, Tiara''s kind of cute"


    That said, Aquasteed sits next to Tiara Rose, who sat on the couch.


    "So? How is this happening... of course there''s an explanation? Keith, Your Majesty Saravia"


    Behind the dusty, smiling aquasteed, it was as if Blizzard was blowing.


    With a sigh, a voice sounded indoors containing a shudder of "I see".


    Aquasteed who had the pale hope that if unilaterally Tiara Rose had been damaged and her body had become smaller...... but from what I heard, it still included a runoff of Tiara Rose.


    I was wondering if I would do something, but after all, Aquasteed laughs bitterly.


    "Keith, too, pay a little more attention to Tiara''s behavior... you should have forced me to stop"


    "That being said, Tiara''s not the kind of woman you''d listen to, is she? You look sophisticated, you''re actually pretty stubborn. If you''d stopped and Tiara had gone unauthorized, you''d have been sucked out of magic and died.


    "Right..."


    It must be a treat for Tiara Rose to sneak out in the middle of the night. After all, because I have a priori.


    Surely if Keith hadn''t helped Tiara Rose from Salamander at inches, he would have been in a more tragic situation than he is now.


    Next, he shifts his gaze to Tiara Rose, sitting next to him, and puts his hand on its head.


    "How could Tiara not wait for me to come?"


    "Also, I''m sorry...... His Majesty Salavia was down, and Salamander seemed hungry and in difficulty... for a little while."


    "Damn it, I won''t hold any number of my hearts."


    That said, Aquasteed holds Tiara Rose up and lets her sit on her lap.


    "What!? Dear Aqua!?"


    "I did what I wanted, what I''ve been doing here for awhile"


    "... Yes"


    Tiara Rose snorts as she pulls her cheeks to a powerful smile that does not saunter the presence or absence of Aquasteed.


    The main issue then moves on to putting Tiara Rose''s body back together......


    "Ask Master Salamander to return his magic, or what? But isn''t that what Her Majesty Saravia told you and received a colorful reply?


    "Oh."


    "Don''t you have any idea why?


    "... that''s a tough question"


    Hearing Aquasteed''s words, Saravia thinks troubled.


    And I just had a strange look on my face, and on the pretend - a brown fingertip touched Aquasteed''s shoulder.


    ''Oh, not a good man. If you want to give me magic, you can give it back to her. "" Huh!? "


    "Dear Salamander!!"


    Appearing in an instant without a sign, Salamander held his body floating in the universe, then turned his arms to Aquasteed''s arms.


    Exactly, Aquasteed is also astonished and breathtaking about this.


    It was Tiara Rose who reacted immediately. Return the magic, and that''s what I want to say - before that, there''s something I have to say.


    "Hey, stay away from Aqua!!"


    Though the Spirit Salamander of Fire, I won''t forgive you if you''re trying to take Aquasteed away from yourself. With that in mind, I try to strip Aquasteed of my spinning hand.


    "What, I like you, give in, man?"


    "No, Master Aqua is my husband!


    I look at the two staring at each other and Saravia squirts and laughs.


    "You''ve never seen such an exclusive kitten before"


    "Not if you''re laughing, Your Majesty! Your Majesty has also told Lady Salamander to stop!


    "That being said, Salamander won''t listen to me... Salamander, please calm down because I want to talk to you for a second."


    Saravia speaks up, as she said originally, but Saramander turns that way from Saravia to see how much she likes Aquasteed.


    Seeing it, even though it is my Aqua-like......, Tiara Rose''s face becomes more and more like a young man. Apparently, the emotional ups and downs are getting more intense when you''re an adult for what you''ve become a child.


    "Please leave, Master Salamander!


    ''No!


    I see the reward went on for the two of them, and Aquasteed calmly tells them "please stop".


    So what do you think, the salamander who was wasting so much time left Aquasteed lightly?


    ''You have no choice, I''ll see you later...''


    To the salamander who said so, Aquasteed proceeds as if he hadn''t heard. I guess that means I''m not going to hang out with Salamander''s jokes right now.


    "I''d like you to give Tiara Rose her magic back."


    ''I don''t like it. If I do that, will I fall on my stomach? Are you still saying that''s okay? You''re cold. "


    "Shouldn''t we have been talking about sharing a little magic...?


    Salamander touched Aquasteed''s lips with her fingertips and said, ''You''re not treating her like a woman, are you?'' and a glossy grin.


    Apparently, even if we talk, we''ll be in parallel.


    Aquasteed decides that it would be better to find negotiating material and set up a forum for discussion again.


    "For one thing, I would like to give it back to you at the festival. Is it then that His Majesty Salavia will give the Salamander magic?


    ''Yes, but I''ve had enough magic. I''ll keep an eye on the festival, but can you still sleep like this?


    I don''t know what to do? And, Salamander tells him to try Aquasteed.


    ''Or if you''re going to be my opponent... you can hit me with the magic of Saravia, okay?


    That way, magic returns to Tiara Rose and two birds a stone without getting magic from Aquasteed. The calculation is made in the salamander.


    Aquasteed often thinks "Hmm..."


    We have to take back the magic of Tiara Rose, so it may have to be her utterance in the worst case Salamander won''t accept the negotiations.


    Tiara Rose, who sees it, is in a hurry to say if Aquasteed chooses to be handcuffed for himself...


    "No, Master Aqua! For my sake, I will never forgive you for sacrificing yourself!!"


    "Tiara......"


    Tiara Rose, who was sitting on Aquasteed''s lap, changed its orientation to Aquasteed''s and grabbed the jacket''s chest tightly. No, he shook his head.


    I didn''t expect you to hate me so much, and Aquasteed''s cheeks loosen naturally.


    "It''s okay, Tiara"


    He caressed his back gently and spoke to reassure him.


    Then alternating between Salamander and Salavia, Aquasteed tells the suggestion.


    "Dear Salamander and this one, let''s look for a satisfactory proposal. I will present it on the day of the festival, could you please give us another place to discuss it?


    "I don''t mind."


    ''Hmm... well, I don''t think there''s anything I can convince you of, but it would be good''


    "Thank you"


    Somehow I was relieved that Aquasteed had delivered the occasion, but Tiara Rose can''t think of any trading material for Salamander.


    ''Well, now that the conversation is over... may I have some wine with you?


    A perfectly unpunished salamander took Aquasteed''s arm and pressed his busty chest.


    Aquasteed doesn''t change one complexion, but Tiara Rose does a little. And soon, he said, "Please don''t!" Salamander peels away from Aquasteed.


    The arm grabbed firmly and Tiara Rose smiled.


    "Dear Aqua, I, Salamander and I need to talk to each other, so I''m going to take a few seats off."


    "Tiara, it''s"


    "I''ll take it off"


    "... ok. But with Master Pearl if I''m not supposed to be present. Exactly. That would be acceptable, wouldn''t it?


    Tiara Rose embraced Aquasteed''s suggestion as she was aware that she had just taken it upon herself.


    The three of us, Tiara Rose, Salamander and Pearl, came to the separate room to have a discussion with each other.


    Drinking servant''s prepared tapioca coconut milk, staring at each other often.


    The first person to say the word was Tiara Rose.


    "Dear Salamander. Your Majesty Aquasteed is my husband, so don''t play games."


    ''Alas, you are a child... shouldn''t I be the one dealing with adults? Not a body like that, you can''t have one kiss?


    "That''s not true, so don''t worry"


    Even when I''m smaller, Aquasteed still loves me about Tiara Rose. I don''t know that. It''s not Tiara Rose.


    That''s why it''s a pretty strong statement.


    When it comes to the Spirit Salamander of Fire, you can''t just tolerate it if you''re trying to take away Aquasteed.


    "... at all. You''re a child. Well, now you''re really looking like a child. Salamander doesn''t say anything obsessive about aquasteeds, either, and you just have to be honest and throw up."


    "Dear Pearl? Do you know anything about this?


    Apparently, Salamander is stubbornly refusing for a reason.


    As Tiara Rose stared at Salamander, she moved her gaze to Pearl and began to tell her that if she knew why, she couldn''t help but hide it.


    ''Damn, I can''t believe you''re blessed by two fairy kings.... If I return my magic to you, Saravia will die?


    "Huh...?


    Until earlier, the room was loud with rhetoric, but it became quiet as if it had hit the water.

 115 10. Saravias Apologies and Suggestions

    Finishing the discussion with Salamander, breaking up with Pearl, Tiara Rose returns to her room.


    Then there was Aquasteed, who was waiting for me to return to Tiara Rose. We''re a couple, so it looks like we''re gonna use the same room.


    "Welcome home, Tiara. I don''t have an excellent expression..."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Tiara Rose whispers in remembrance of what Salamander had told me earlier. Exactly, it''s not that easy to put into your mouth.


    - I can''t believe His Majesty Saravia lost his life when he returned his magic to me.


    I would never accept that, and it''s scary and even hard to put it in my mouth. Seeing Tiara Rose like that, I guess Aquasteed guessed something.


    Without further pursuit, I gently held Tiara Rose up.


    "Shall I get Filine some drinks and sweets? You''re tired of talking to women, aren''t you?


    "... Yes. That''s right, when you''re tired, it''s sweet!


    Aquasteed rang the bell and called Philine to order drinks and snacks.


    To calm down, Filine prepared some warm tea for me.


    Then vegetables, fruit sandwiches. Jelly as a dessert. Other than that, Madeleine and cookies were prepared for Tiara Rose.


    The first thing to eat is Madeleine, not a sandwich.


    I''m tired, so it''s a sweet, snack, sweet sandwich operation.


    "Didn''t you become a kid and like sweets even more?


    "Ugh...... that could be true. Compared to normal, it''s kind of hard to contain emotions."


    "Well, I can''t help it. Putting emotions on the table is one of my children''s most important tasks."


    Even as I nod at Aquasteed''s words, the contents are adults...... and Tiara Rose laughs bitterly.


    Flattened Madeleine, Tiara Rose reaches for a raw cream and fruit sandwich. The slight sweetness combined with the sourness of the fruit gives it a very satisfying taste.


    As she was delightfully eating, Aquasteed''s fingertips touched her cheek, "It''s on." Apparently, it had raw cream on its mouth.


    "Ah! Thank you"


    "You''re welcome."


    Tickle and smile, Aquasteed stares at Tiara Rose.


    - It''s kind of hard to eat...


    "Dear Aqua, have you not seen me too much?


    "Really? I''ve been away from Tiara for so long, I can''t help it."


    If they say so, Tiara Rose can''t deny it either. Tiara Rose, ''cause if you can watch all the time about Aquasteed, you want to watch it.


    But I don''t think it''s a good idea for you to use that as a word.


    "I missed you too, Aqua."


    "Yeah."


    Tiara Rose puts her sandwich on the plate and looks up at Aquasteed as she blushes. Now that I''m a child, it''s kind of fresh because it''s not the same line of sight.


    - Even if you peek in from below, Master Aqua looks great...


    Unexpectedly, sometimes, but don''t tell me.


    Hold him tight on Aquasteed''s hips and his gentle arms will hug him back. I''m happy with that, and Tiara Rose laughs fuzzily.


    "Tiara''s cute even when she''s smaller. Says it won''t hurt to put it in my eyes, but now I think I can convince you."


    "If you say that, I''m embarrassed"


    Aquasteed touches the honey pink twin tail looking fun and tangles it with his twirling fingers, "That''s fresh".


    "This is, Philine! I wondered if I was a little childish..."


    "Filine has good arms. He''s a kid now, and he looks great."


    "Oh, really?


    I was a little embarrassed, but Tiara Rose asks if I could give her a compliment. And I got up off the couch and tried to pinch the hem of the dress and spin it around.


    To that adorability, it goes without saying that Aquasteed''s cheeks have loosened.


    "Pearl prepared this dress for you."


    "Master Pearl? Sure, that''s not the type of dress that''s in Sandrose."


    Tiara Rose can sit back next to Aquasteed and shine a little light on her actions.


    I can stroke my head full with a good boy to see if that appearance got into Aquasteed''s bumps. That''s comforting, Tiara Rose narrows her eyes.


    - I want you to kiss me.


    I don''t know what I thought, but I''m sure I can''t help it. Besides, Aquasteed always talks at these times.


    It''s weirder not to expect it.


    That''s what I thought......


    Speaking of which, he said His Majesty would come later.


    "Huh?"


    I wouldn''t be able to help myself if they shook a completely different topic and gave me a barbaric voice. Why don''t you kiss me? And I can''t even hear it from myself...... Tiara Rose nodded again.


    "But what are the requirements? After I left the room with Lady Salamander, did you talk to His Majesty Salavia about anything?


    "Just a quick greeting and a few things about your stay schedule. I''ve spoken to Keith about this case, especially."


    "Was it..."


    That sounded like a knock just in time, thinking I couldn''t figure it out more and more.


    "Looks like we''re here. I''m leaving. Tiara needs to sit down."


    "Yes."


    Tiara Rose drinks tea when she sees Aquasteed get up. I''m just a little sorry that I might have had a good vibe with Aquasteed because of this......


    Of course, if Saravia wants to talk about something, I can''t say no because I think it''s about this one.


    Aquasteed, who responded, came back with Saravia.


    "Hey, kitty. You must have fought a woman with Salamander, didn''t you? How''d it go?"


    "Nothing.... than that, was there anything?


    "... right"


    Saravia stared at Tiara Rose and lowered her head to ninety degrees.


    "Really, I think I''ve done something sorry for Tiara Rose. Ask Salamander to return his magic properly. Two hands don''t bother me."


    "Your Majesty Saravia... such, suddenly..."


    Until earlier, we were talking about Aquasteed presenting negotiating material. Tiara Rose looks at Saravia worryingly, but all she came back with was a laugh.


    - But if you do that, Your Majesty will die, won''t you?


    Is this man saying it with knowledge?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose looks at Saravia''s red eyes and sees them, but I can''t read his emotions from those eyes. No, I guess I''m not trying to make you read it.


    I guess that''s the eye of a prepared man, and I thought so.


    "To protect Aqua, I saw a momentum kitten selling fights to Salamander... and I didn''t think I could keep doing this either. I''m the one who''s gonna have to work the hardest, and this isn''t gonna make you look good, is it?


    That''s why I decided to do everything myself, Saravia says.


    "Well, originally it was about Sandrose, so I don''t mind... but if you need help, I''ll give you a hand."


    "Enough. Thank you, Aqua."


    Sometimes Aquasteed didn''t know what was going on about magic, and he snorted in one reply, drawing on Saravia''s feelings.


    But Tiara Rose knows why.


    Salavia has less magic than she was born with, so if Salamander gives her magic to sleep again... all her magic will be gone and she will die.


    No, we talked about exactly that likely...... but for Tiara Rose they are both similar. Dangerously, it makes no difference.


    Perhaps if Tiara Rose nodded here, Saravia would be prepared to die and give Salamander all her magic.


    - Well, there''s no way I can accept it if I know what''s going on.


    Tiara Rose explores whether there is a way for everyone to help. But there''s not much time for respite. Four days from now, there will be a festival of flames and water.


    At the end of this festival, Salamander said he was going to fall asleep... he told me when we talked earlier.


    So Tiara Rose declared her voice rough.


    "Disagree! Leave the magic to Salamander and find a way for me to get back to normal!


    "- What?"


    I guess I didn''t expect such a response. Saravia opens her eyes and tells her what the hell she''s going to say.


    Aquasteed sighed with his hands on his head.


    The statue of the goddess in the palace was previously made in the symbol of Salamander.


    It has been handed down from generation to generation only to the royal family of Sandrose who can instill magic there. There were many royalties before, and now there is only one Saravia.


    Time had passed since the discussion between Salamander and the Tiara Rose woman, and now she was about to stay up late.


    "Accept my magic..."


    Salamander, sitting on top of the statue of the goddess, muttered about talking to Salavia earlier.


    "What, my magic is so disgusting? Salamander."


    "Saravia!"


    "Hey. Are you even looking at the stars? ¡­ indeed, today, the weather is nice"


    What a laugh Saravia has about the good weather here these days is the protection of Salamander.


    Step right into the waterfront and Salavia goes all the way under the statue of the goddess with the salamander. As Saravia leans lightly against the statue, a little silence flows.


    They looked at the night sky silently, then slowly Saravia opened her mouth.


    "Tiara Rose said no."


    "Give me magic." You''re going to die, so you just have to thank me for that decision. ''


    "But before I do, I''m a Sandrose royal. If you don''t do your duty, you''re not dressed well, are you?


    I felt like Tiara Rose scolded me and caught a glimpse of her pride.


    It made me kind of embarrassed to use Tiara Rose to gain the magic of a salamander. Then it would still be more like a king to die clean.


    But that doesn''t make sense to Salamander.


    ''Please don''t say anything stupid. I think that''s all right. Scratch your feet not to die first, though you may indeed be king!


    "Salamander......"


    "I cannot allow you to die alone! Use whatever is available in other countries! No one fits my magic wavelength, except that woman! That''s how miraculous this is. ''


    The only thing that matches the magic and wavelength of the Spirit of Fire Salamander is the Sandrose royalty. Even if I were there, that would surely be astronomical, really slight odds.


    ''Please, don''t go ahead and try to die on your own. I, Saravia... do not want you to die. I want you to live.''


    As much as you can tell, a salamander screams in tears all the time.


    Down from the statue of the goddess, Salamander becomes emotional and pushes Salavia down to the water. Blistering and wet, but I don''t mind that.


    While Salavia is surprised by Salamander''s actions, she is not going to change her mind. I shook my head and tried to show my willingness to reject, but a small grain fell on my cheek before that.


    "Salamander, you..."


    ''Please. At the expense of Tiara Rose. But live. Don''t sacrifice yourself for me.''


    It was Salamander''s tears that poured out of Salamander''s eyes. A precious gem that is rarely seen.


    Even in the palace of Sandrose, it was a substitute for only one thing that existed that I gave to Tiara Rose.


    "... I cried twice. I wonder if you know what this word means... Saravia ''


    "Oh...... the more painfully I know. Salamander, you liked me so much."


    Glad to hear it - that said, Saravia reaches out to the salamander she is in love with. Touch the crying eye area and narrow your eyes.


    "Salamander''s tears are so beautiful."


    The jewels to be born were many, dozens of times more mysterious than what they ever had. I''m sure you can''t, even if they tell you to take your eyes off me.


    When I want to keep looking, Saravia thinks.


    Salamander''s reaction, however, was not what Salavia expected.


    ''Please don''t get on with it. Sure, Saravia is beautiful, but if you look at it from me, you''re still a child.''


    "Hey... you said to Aqua, can''t I?"


    ''It''s not natural. That man and Saravia are completely different things.''


    "Right..."


    I just thought that was a confession of love, but apparently it wasn''t. Salavia gets up with Salamander, with her head on.


    "In the meantime, the kitten refused me. I''ll try to find a way to keep me from dying.... or Izette will get mad at you."


    "Isn''t that a good side?"


    "Right. I may not be blessed with my family, but I think I have a good relationship with the people around me."


    Saravia smiled gently, saying she was very grateful for that.

 116 11. What about the princes kiss?

    The day after Saravia''s apology, Tiara Rose was worried about what to do now.


    When I went back to normal in any other way than to have my magic returned, I spoke Australian. But unfortunately, Tiara Rose has no idea.


    - But when it comes to how to break the curse... the prince''s kiss?


    Well, it''s not a curse.


    That''s the way it comes to mind.


    If I told you I could do the magic, would you kiss me? And, although they may laugh at me, I think there could be such a romantic way because this is the world of maiden games.


    But the question is, would you ask Aquasteed to kiss me?


    "On second thought, you feel like you have a pretty high hurdle"


    "Hurdle."


    "Ah..."


    Unexpectedly squeaking, Aquasteed, sitting next to him, tilted his neck.


    Speaking of which, Tiara Rose remembered the situation, saying she and I were just sitting back and relaxing on the couch.


    "Did you have any good ideas to get magic?


    "Uh..."


    No way, let''s give it a kiss! That''s embarrassing and hard to say.


    Because Aquasteed also has a lot of causes.


    - I haven''t seen him again in a long time, and he hasn''t kissed me yet.


    Yes, Aquasteed came to Sandrose yesterday... Tiara Rose hasn''t had a kiss yet.


    Kind of a nice vibe, huh? There were moments when I thought, but that really collapsed quickly in the story about Saravia.


    Tiara Rose gets anxious, naturally, actually.


    - ''Cause if you were my regular aqua-sama, you''d definitely be kissing me!


    Could it be that, as Salamander said, I don''t want to kiss you because I don''t want to be a child anymore?


    If it''s true, it''s a lot of shock.


    Or maybe Aquasteed stunned me because I simply took the liberty of it and hated me.


    Either way, those things happen and Tiara Rose is afraid to tell them she wants them to kiss her from herself. If they react subtly, they won''t be able to get back on their feet.


    "Tiara?"


    What''s the matter with you? And Aquasteed peeked into my face worried.


    "No. Um, I thought maybe the same thing happened in a long history. If so, I wonder if there''s a book or something..."


    "Oh, it''s possible."


    "But I think it will probably be precious... if we think about it normally, I wonder if it would be difficult for us, the royalty of another country, to view it"


    There will surely be such things as material on important take-out bans about the country. That''s why I don''t think there''s anything salamander-related about a library that''s open to the public.


    Aquasteed often conceived and nodded.


    "I will ask His Majesty Saravia to cooperate there. Exactly, this is an irregular case, so there''s a good chance you''ll allow it."


    "Right......"


    - I kissed you, and I couldn''t tell you.


    Seeing Tiara Rose get soaked up, Aquasteed tilts her neck wondering if she would have handled something wrong.


    "No, it''s nothing! I got a little nervous if I could go back."


    "Right.... but no matter what I do, I''ll find a way to get it back."


    "Dear Aqua...... thank you"


    To reassure you, Aquasteed caresses your head gently.


    At the same time that''s comfortable, oh, what if this is a good vibe?...... and Tiara Rose thinks. You don''t have to bother with this, you might be able to get a kiss in the stream.


    Sometimes, my heart sounds a little louder.


    Tiara Rose closes her eyes and leans over to leave herself to Aquasteed. It becomes a lukewarm air and the usual sweet atmosphere.


    If this is absolutely possible, Tiara Rose has something close to certainty.


    But it collapses by Aquasteed''s ruthless words.


    "Then why don''t we ask His Majesty Saravia for permission to go to the library"


    "Huh..."


    "Huh?"


    Stupid. Honestly, I looked disgusted, and Aquasteed pounded.


    "Oh, no, not that I don''t like going to the library."


    "Yeah? What''s up, Tiara?"


    "... I''ve been away for a while, so I''d like to slow down a little more like this for both of us"


    I grabbed Aquasteed''s clothes sleeve and said, "Can''t you?" and moisturize the eyes. I do not know if I can break the curse with a kiss, so it is important to go to the library.


    But more than that, I want to be with Aquasteed more.


    Look at the honestly sweet Tiara Rose, Aquasteed loosens her cheeks.


    "My princess says something cute."


    "Geez."


    He was lifted up and sat on Aquasteed''s lap.


    Ever since I got smaller, I feel like his knee is in my fixed position. Of course I don''t hate that, and I''m glad to say so.


    Yet I kind of feel like I''m a long way from feeling without heart.


    - Such anxiety, it''s my fault, right?


    There''s no way I can say I''m anxious about the relationship, even though I''ve already caused a lot of trouble. That''s the only time I might get sick of being a pain in the ass this time.


    If you''re not a good boy somehow, Tiara Rose bites off her lips.


    "Sorry, you''ve made me nervous"


    "Dear Aqua...... No. I''m the one who always leans on Aqua."


    Embraced to be wrapped all the time, wrapped in the scent of aquasteed. I was so comfortable, I blew up the anxiety I was thinking about right now at once.


    Rub your cheeks against each other and enjoy Aquasteed all the time here.


    - This is definitely the time!


    If Aquasteed isn''t coming, we''ll just step in a little bit more from here.


    "Dear Aqua, Dear Aqua!


    "Hmm?"


    When Tiara Rose calls, she returns a happy smile.


    I apologize in my heart that my chest is stunned and I feel sorry for what I suspect. After all, Aquasteed has seen so much about himself.


    In an attempt to create an atmosphere first, Tiara Rose takes Aquasteed''s hand and connects it all the time. Rub straight and indulge in big hands.


    "My hands are getting smaller, and Master Aqua''s hands look bigger."


    "Right. Tiara''s even cuter than usual."


    Though Tiara Rose''s hands are small and her fingers are not long enough to make a lover connection that teases her fingers. Still try hard, stretch your fingers and try to tangle.


    Seeing Tiara Rose like that, Aquasteed chuckles.


    "I usually touch tiara a lot from me, but this is good too. It''s going to be kind of a habit for Tiara to ask for it."


    "Wow, I''m always looking for Master Aqua!


    What I usually say to the wind that isn''t, I want you to stop.


    Aquasteed apologizes "I''m sorry" when Tiara Rose says so and makes her persevere.


    "Of course, I know you''ve always loved me, but I''m usually more than that."


    "I will be content, too.... but that''s because Aqua loves me a lot."


    Aquasteed is better off if one of you starts to care, but I''m just going to give back the same feelings.


    In the first place, I can''t help it because Aquasteed starts spoiling Tiara Rose before she sweetens it to Aquasteed.


    "But I can''t help it because I want to love Tiara. I''m sure that won''t change forever, so be prepared."


    "! I''m ready, you know... I''ve already done it. Or more and more!


    Rather, Tiara Rose laughs at the momentum from this side of the spectrum.


    It''s such a calm atmosphere, and it''s neat - after all, there''s always no sign that Aquasteed is going to set you up for a kiss.


    I''ve just confirmed my love for myself, why not!


    Shivering as he sifted, he glances at Aquasteed''s face.


    "Your nose is tiny and cute, Tiara"


    "Hih!


    Aquasteed''s fingertips were stretching and he was stroked on the head of his nose. I reiterate that that sounds like a lot of fun and I knew you had a lot of love for yourself.


    - Then maybe it''s because I''m not attracted to it?


    I''m sure Aquasteed must be an adult woman, not a child.


    But I can''t be bothered with that all the time because I have to explore the possibility of breaking the curse. Tiara Rose never wills, turning her arms around Aquasteed''s neck.


    "... ugh!


    Stretch out your body all the way and give it a kiss that touches you properly.


    That''s all, your body has heat from time to time.


    Finally, I could kiss you.


    I see Aquasteed''s face saying I did it.... and I''m making my eyes squeeze. Aquasteed, who is so surprised, didn''t think he''d get a mouthful of it.


    Aquasteed covered his mouth to block it with his hands and deflected his face.


    "Oh, Dear Aqua...?


    Could it have been really, really bad? Did you hate kissing yourself so much that you turned away? Thinking about it makes me want to cry asexually.


    When I almost seeped in tears, I noticed.


    - Dear Aqua, my ears are red.


    Maybe or maybe not, is it lit?


    Totally, I pulled in tears.


    - Oh, speaking of which, it didn''t go back to normal.


    It''s not a curse, so I can''t help this.


    "... ha. Why are you coming from Tiara when I''ve been patient?"


    "Huh? Patience...?


    "Tiara''s a kid now, so maybe she''s still cute... I thought I shouldn''t kiss her"


    Apparently, Aquasteed turned out to have restrained himself.


    "Damn, then say yes! I was so anxious that you might have hated me or because I was unattractive!


    "Tiara...... right, sorry. It wasn''t a good idea for you to come to a conclusion on your own. We should have spoken properly because we were a couple."


    He said he never hated it - Aquasteed gently wraps Tiara Rose''s cheek around her hands and drops one kiss on her forehead.


    "... Yes. I''m relieved. I wonder if an adult woman is better than a child because Salamander was giving a little bit to Aqua... or something"


    "That can''t be true. I won''t do anything for Tiara that makes Tiara sad."


    "I know, but I thought maybe. I still tried so hard to seduce her, but Aqua didn''t take it personally..."


    Tiara Rose talks about all the previous grids.


    Aquasteed is desperate to see if he was thinking about such a cute thing... and is about to do it.


    "Oh already, Tiara is too cute to be in trouble. I''m sorry I made you anxious. There''s nothing I can do..."


    "That''s not true! Even I was impotent without waiting for Master Aqua to come. You deserve it in a way."


    "... Sure, I''d be glad to have you weigh in a bit more. No matter how many hearts I have, I''m not going to have it."


    Even this time, what the hell would have happened without Keith?


    Perhaps if it were just Tarmo the escort, Tiara Rose would not have been in the world by now.


    "I like you, I love you more than anyone... Tiara"


    "Me too, Master Aqua. I love it."


    Staring and whispering love, my lips overlapped - a kiss fell all over my cheek.


    "Dear Aqua, aren''t those lips there?


    "... since my toothpick has to stop working, since I''m back here as an adult"


    That said, Aquasteed stroked Tiara Rose''s lips with his fingers.

 117 12. The Kings Face

    Saravia''s father took no more than one wife and loved and pulled out only one in his lifetime.


    The woman was a subordinate nobleman''s maid, and she had a happy marriage - weak body, and Saravia died when she was ten years old.


    After a while, his father also left the world to follow the rest.


    That''s why Saravia doesn''t have any brothers.


    As the season was about to shift from winter to spring, Saravia was concerned that her mother''s health would never recover.


    Sometimes it''s a desert country, and even at this time of year, Sandrose isn''t very cold. However, it is also a season that cannot be said to be easy for the sick to spend.


    Saravia came to the garden and found her mother sitting by the water.


    "Mother, what are you doing here"


    "It''s not Sarah. Have you finished your morning studies yet?


    "... done. So, my mother hasn''t been feeling well since morning, has she? I need to sleep..."


    What if it gets worse, Saravia asks her mother.


    "I''m sorry," he grins bitterly at his worried son, stroking his head.


    "I''m a little calm, so I thought you''d be okay."


    "Already...... My hands are so cold."


    "I think I''m getting a little cold"


    Saravia sighs at her mother, looking swallowed.


    "Let''s get back to the room. You''ll see rain clouds in the distance, so it''ll be colder in the afternoon."


    "Well, that''s tough. Sarah also had an audition for dancing this afternoon..."


    "Don''t worry about me, mind your own body"


    "Yes, sir. Sarah doesn''t care."


    Saravia takes her mother''s hand and returns to the palace.


    But along the way, her mother coughed up and stopped her leg. I immediately grabbed my mother''s back, which looked spicy, and said, "Are you okay?" and speak up.


    "Somebody give me a hand because my mother looks spicy!


    "Yes, I did, right away!


    A servant who traveled through the vicinity noticed the hurried voice of Saravia, and soon came. Take her to her room so she can hold her mother and arrange for a doctor.


    I put him to sleep on the sleeping table, but his breathing is disturbing and he''s about to suffer.


    "... so that''s why I wanted you to take your time in the room..."


    Saravia distorts her face when she says why she went out to the garden or something.


    The mother, who had been coughing for a while, slowly opened her eyes and looked at Saravia as her breathing settled. The fact that I was suffering until just now is a lying smile.


    "I''m sorry, Sarah. You surprised me."


    "... it''s okay. But you have to be asleep no more today!


    "Yeah, right. I thought it would be all right for a little while... but my body is in trouble for not listening to me."


    Saravia sighs frightened, wondering if it is the word of a man about to fall. I sincerely hope you feel a little more at stake.


    Saravia sits on a chair placed next to her bedside and stares at her lying mother.


    Clear golden hair is glossy straight and has a length to the waist. Brown skin, red eyes. Saravia''s appearance inherits her mother''s in color.


    What resembles an emperor, his father, is his winning eyes and losing personality?


    When Saravia sees her sitting, her mother giggles.


    "... what is it"


    "No. The little one was two melons to me, but I thought Sarah was starting to look a little like him when she grew up and became manly."


    One day Saravia will take over the position of emperor, so I''d like to see her, my mother groans.


    "I don''t know when my father is leaving, but my mother is the queen, so it''s up to me to see her."


    "Hehe, I hope so"


    When I could always see it, the only reason my mother didn''t say it in the words of certainty was... probably because she had noticed thinly her death.


    It was not until Saravia, who was still young, that she realized that, at any rate, she would reign in the emperor.


    "... I want Sarah to live long enough to keep an eye on this country."


    "Suddenly again..."


    "Right. If I insist, I can''t make you a sibling."


    The royal family of Sandrose has taken multiple side chambers for generations and played many children. However, it is tough on her weak body to have any more children, and neither my father, the emperor, nor my new side chamber, thinks of fine dust.


    But Saravia was also proud of it.


    My parents love only one person in their lifetime.


    So much so that the emperors of history even thought that many had side chambers and were not honest. In the future, he wanted to be like that... as a young man.


    "Me and that guy will leave the world before Sarah does. So Sarah, I want you to keep an eye on my country."


    "Don''t tell me as if I were going to die"


    "Because humans, things that you don''t know what''s there.... Oh, my God, was that a little too sentimental?


    With a dull laugh, her mother holds Saravia''s hand.


    "Just for a moment, I''ve been thinking about what''s going to happen. Sarah, hey Sarah... what I gave you must have been enough to give birth to your life in this world."


    "Don''t be silly. I get a lot more stuff from my mother."


    Happy, angry, pathetic or fun. Then, loving someone. The feeling that Saravia loves her parents and the people of this country would have come from her mother''s affection.


    "One day I want to find someone I care about."


    "Heh, that''s good. I''m sure she''ll be very happy that Sarah loves her. I was loved by that man, and gave birth to Sarah, so happy."


    "Yes!"


    Saravia, ten years old, replied vibrantly to her mother''s words. Yes, I am very happy at this time, and one day I will see this country where I have become emperor - together.


    But with his mother''s death, all of that was overshadowed.


    "... Dear A, Dear Saravia! It''s morning."


    I inhaled my breath and woke up ha-ha.


    The morning sun was plugged in through the window, apparently slower than usual to wake up. Usually, he said he''d wake up before Izette came to wake him.


    Saravia wakes up her body and sighs one.


    "Morning, Izette."


    "Good morning, Master Saravia.... Looks like you were stuck, but was it bad in your dreams?


    Offered a wake-up ginger tee, Saravia sees Isette without hiding her tired expression.


    "... it was my mother''s dream when she died"


    "It''s..."


    Without knowing what to answer, Izette mumbles.


    "Lately, you''ve had a lot to do. I''m sure you''re tired and weak. Calm down a little and rest."


    When Izette opens the window to change the air, the wind strokes Saravian blonde hair.


    I sipped ginger tea and looked out the window for the view, and blurted, "It''s not going to work," he said.


    "I didn''t think the Fairy King was with me."


    "Right. When Rose comes in, the plan goes crazy"


    "I do agree with that"


    laughed all the time, and Saravia drank Ginger Tea all at once.


    "At first I was thinking of getting a sneaky enough amount of magic from Rose, but you can''t. I didn''t want to be that kind of person."


    "Dear Saravia,"


    "I''m sure my mother wouldn''t want me like that."


    "But more than that, I am saddened that you will die!


    Roughing up Yzette''s voice telling her not to choose death easily so that she can put it on Saravia''s words.


    Indeed, it was the royal duty to give magic to the awakened salamander. But since it was centuries ago, it was the responsibility of the former emperor to take only one concubine.


    "Salamander woke up and found out I had to do that duty... when my mother died. Salamander''s will came through me, and I realized what I had to do."


    And at the same time...


    "I despaired. ''Cause, you know, my magic wasn''t enough magic to give Salamander. In the first place, there''s no way that only one human can fill Salamander''s belly."


    So soon, Saravia advised her father to take a new side room. Because as it is, when the salamander wakes up, he can no longer deal with it. Anyway, he told me to have more kids so that Salamander could give me magic.


    But the opinion was never accepted.


    And at the same time, Saravia couldn''t deny her father''s rejection.


    Because I couldn''t forget how much I loved only one of my own wives.


    Then I wish I could take lots of side rooms in place of my father and prosper the royalty...... I thought so.


    This is all Saravia has ever done.


    "Even before, I had filled Salamander''s belly in exchange for the Emperor''s life. It''s not like I''m gonna die, and it''s not too bad to give it a try."


    "It''s decided badly. If you die, the Sandrose royalty will be gone."


    "... so is that"


    But there''s a part of me that looks optimistic.


    Sandrose had many royalties looking back in history. Perhaps it is secretly spreading its blood among the civilian population as well.


    I mean, in case something like this happens right now - I wonder if the emperor long ago keeps the cloth stone.


    No, eighty-nine out of ten. That''s what you''d be doing.


    As an emperor, there is certainty. Because, no doubt, Saravia will do it too. No wonder there was someone with the same idea. No, it would be weird if you weren''t there.


    That''s why some parts of me were able to move boldly this way.


    "Oh, speaking of which... Your Majesty Aquasteed has asked me to grant you access to all the libraries."


    "Library?"


    The subject changes to Pretend, and Saravia unwittingly gives a barbaric voice.


    "What a place to be...... oh well. Looking for clues to get your body back."


    "You probably are. However, the underground library is tightly controlled with access. Even the people of this country can''t get in so easily, but when they become royalty in another country, let alone royalty..."


    "No, I don''t mind, give me permission."


    Saravia speaks lightly of her consent before Isette tells her she should say no.


    Sure, considering this one, it''s inevitable to admit it... is it really okay? It''s not just about how to get back to normal, it''s about military classified material about this country.


    But once Saravia decides, the idea won''t be so overshadowed. Izette has no choice but to reply "if you will".


    "Then I will tell His Majesty Aquasteed from me."


    "Oh, please. But the festival is the day after tomorrow. I don''t think I can find a way back by then... but somehow, I don''t think Rose can handle it."


    laughed all the time. Saravia rose from her bedroom and put her arms through Izette''s prepared sleeve of clothes.


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed look for ways they can regain their magic, and Saravia prepares for the ceremony. The day of the Flame and Water Ceremony quickly came as each of us did what we had to do.


    Nothing good comes up...

 118 13. Festival of Fire and Water: Part I

    A magnificent fireworks are magically launched to mark the beginning of the Festival of Flames and Water.


    Once a year in Sandrose, it is a festival held in the summer in the square of the palace. It is meant to thank and pray for the grace of the oasis if it were meant to be, but not this time.


    Because there is an important role for the awakened salamander to give him the magic to sleep again.


    If the salamander fails and does not gain magic, Sandrose will be transformed into the capital of death by the magic of a salamander who has left control.


    The royals of all countries, including Tiara Rose, are invited to this festival where the salamander awakens. That''s all there is to it.


    Tiara Rose is faceless as she watches the stage of the festival set up. The reason for this is that my body hasn''t been undone yet.


    "You''re a cute kid," she greeted me from each side because I''m sitting next to Aquasteed.


    "Tiara, it''s over time."


    Aquasteed tells me I should leave the later response to Saravia.


    But Tiara Rose can''t accept that either. It can''t be accepted that Saravia dies in her place.


    No matter what I do, there''s one conclusion I''ve come up with all the way to bed.


    I can''t be happy with myself, Saravia or Aquasteed as it is, so I mean compromise...


    Of course I don''t know if you can accept it, but when it does, I''ll just have to persevere in pursuit. And I''m going to get some magic back, recover again, and then give it to Salamander.


    - Master Salamander also cares about His Majesty Salavia, so if you sincerely discuss it, you will understand.


    But if you come up with a little something for Aquasteed, I''ll be ready to fight then, though.


    "Tiara?"


    Aquasteed has called again on Tiara Rose, who doesn''t think about it and respond.


    "Eh! Uh, right, no, you''re not..."


    "... maybe you''re hiding something from me?


    It''s probably because it''s gotten a lot going on, Aquasteed inquires with certainty. But I get in trouble about how to cut it out, and Tiara Rose lets her eyes swim.


    But happy or unhappy, at this time began the dance of the Festival of Flames and Water.


    First, the dance of the witches of the desert is performed, and when it is over, it is the dance of Saravia, the emperor. It is so precious that the emperor dances, and everyone is breathtaking and burning that figure in their eyes.


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed are also blinded by their beauty.


    Much more fantastic than when you fought Aquasteed at a masquerade. I''m sure Salamander will be watching this dance too.


    Staring silently at Saravia...... Tiara Rose slowly opens her mouth when she still can''t keep her mouth shut to Aquasteed.


    "... I really couldn''t have the courage to put it in my mouth. But you can''t just not tell Aqua."


    Tiara Rose''s hand, which she had on her lap, trembled slightly.


    Not an aquasteed to miss that. Put your own hand on Tiara Rose''s hand and gently wrap it around. It''s okay because I''m attached, like I tell you.


    "... you must also know that Aqua needs magic in order for Salamander to sleep again"


    "Oh."


    "For generations, the royal family of Sandrose has taken on that role and taken full responsibility. That''s why this country is a romantic power."


    Tiara Rose keeps her eyes peeled away from Saravian dance and continues her words.


    "For His Majesty Salavia to satisfy the magic of Salamander alone, His Majesty Salavia''s magic is not enough. You can''t let them fall asleep again without putting as much magic into their lives as you can."


    "It''s..."


    "Yes, if I had my magic returned to me by Lord Salamander and His Majesty Salavia had given me magic... I would probably run out of that life"


    Aquasteed is breathtaking to see if the situation was that serious.


    But at the same time, I found out why Tiara Rose was trying so hard to get it back on its own. It''s too harsh for her to be kind to put people''s lives and herself on the scale.


    Aquasteed held Tiara Rose''s shoulder and quietly told her, "You''ve said it well," she said.


    "You let one Tiara carry the hard stuff."


    "No, I should have told Aqua sooner."


    "That''s not true. As Tiara said, saying someone''s death is very courageous."


    So naturally the feeling, Aquasteed smiles gently.


    "... Keith, Dear Pearl"


    "I''m here."


    "I don''t have a choice..."


    "The situation is just as I heard. Well, the two of you may already be familiar... but I''d like to talk to Master Salamander, will you look for me? You must be watching His Majesty''s dance from somewhere."


    When Aquasteed said so, Keith and Pearl nodded and disappeared from the spot.


    - When Master Aqua does it, he does everything without...


    Tiara Rose was thinking of finding a salamander on her own, so it pains me that she still has to talk to someone.


    I''m sure Keith and Pearl will find Salamander soon enough.


    "Thank you, Master Aqua"


    "I''ll do whatever I can. Tiara, you can''t be any more impotent, okay?


    ".................. Yes!


    "I''m a little concerned in the meantime, but let''s just say it''s okay"


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed once again turned their attention to the dance of Saravia during the intervening period until Salamander was found.


    Listening to the sound of a bell called Shan, Salamander was turning his gaze to the dance of Salavia. The place is on the roof of the palace, with a privileged seat overlooking the festivities taking place in the square.


    Salamander smiles contentedly that you have improved¡­


    She started waking up when Saravia was just a young girl. A state of repeated awakening and sleep in a fine sleep, not a complete awakening. Simply put, he slept twice or three times a few years.


    So I was watching Saravia from time to time.


    "Somehow, you''ve been watching it since you were a kid, so Saravia''s so cute."


    I have a much stronger attachment to Saravia than some historical royalty who has given me magic.


    ''I couldn''t dance well at first, but that kid hates losing... so you were up early in the morning and specially trained. Then it''s the mother''s thought, and above all, what you think deeply about me and this country''


    I''m so glad about that.


    I just got more feminine personality than I thought... but I can''t help it all. Perhaps Saravia, who was pure, could not have instilled love in more than one woman without falsifying herself that way.


    The sound of Shane and the louder bell tells us that it''s time for the finale.


    "What are you doing here?"


    "It''s an honor for the Fairy King of the Sea to come to me immediately."


    "Say it often."


    Because of this, I was watching Saravian dance, and they shredded Xing.


    It was Pearl who took Aquasteed''s instructions and found Salamander. Put the fan on your mouth and narrow your eyes looking terribly troublesome.


    "I''m looking forward to discussing Tiara Rose."


    ''Unfortunately, I have nothing to tell you. I''m sorry, but I refuse.''


    Anyway, I can see you telling me how to get myself back on track or something like that. Salamander shook his neck sideways and ran out of interest.


    And I sigh at him, and I wonder what''s wrong with Pearl.


    This time the goal is twofold.


    Returning Tiara Rose, who has become a child, to adulthood.


    Not letting Saravia die.


    It''s simple and clear.


    I haven''t told Tiara Rose and Aquasteed yet, but Pearl actually has a secret to fix these two.


    "Not at all, Salamander doesn''t have ears to listen to. You can take them with my strength, but it won''t even Tiara Rose want them."


    ''That''s right. I don''t want you to do anything without it.''


    "... but what if Saravia says there is a way to fulfill her duties as king even more without dying?


    When I couldn''t deal with them, the salamander tried to move the arrow tip... and Pearl threw me such a suggestion.


    But Salamander shouted and laughed, ''Don''t be ridiculous!'' and see the pearl.


    ''There''s no such convenient way. If there''s such a way, I''ve done it a long time ago. Stop teasing me. "


    I wish Pearl could use a little more head for a salamander who decides that''s why I can''t.


    "Flirting is a boring joke, I don''t like it. It depends on whether you believe it or not, but isn''t Saravia the last one to be miserable if you put me through too much?


    ''... Huh!


    They poke me where it hurts, and Salamander bites my lips off. Indeed, Pearl is right, that would be best if Saravia did not lose pride as an emperor.


    I can''t say it back because I understand that properly.


    "Hmm. Well. Do you want to go under Tiara Rose? The Saravian dance is just about over."


    Wow, cheers up, Saravia is thankful on stage.


    ''Fine. If it''s just talk, I''ll listen to you. But remember, I''m not going to give Tiara Rose back her magic. I don''t like it when Saravia dies.''


    "I know. Let''s go."


    When Pearl flipped the fan, the body disappeared with the salamander.

 119 14. Festival of Fire and Water: Part II

    Saravia finishes the dance and is wrapped in a round of applause. He thanked the Quartet and thanked the Tiara Roses for accepting the invitation to this festival.


    Then the light gathered over Salavia''s head... and Salamander showed himself. At the same time, Pearl shows himself moving right behind Tiara Rose.


    Looks like they were each in a different location after the metastasis.


    "As requested, I brought Salamander... but what are you not going to do? Tiara Rose"


    "Thank you, Master Pearl. There are only a few things I can do... but if I miss today, Salamander will fall asleep, so I can''t talk to you."


    So don''t regret it, Tiara Rose smiled when we talked.


    The appearance of a salamander over the head of Salavia spreads a twist around the perimeter.


    Who the hell is that luscious beauty!?.


    No one knows that this festival is for Salamander, although all the humans who are in attendance know it because Salavia gave an explanation at the beginning, but it is really real.


    Salamander had a glossy grin and saw only Salavia without even teeth, such as the crowd.


    I only saw the dance that was offered to me.... very nice ''


    "It''s an honor to say that."


    Seeing Salavia kneel down to Salamander, everyone comes to the conclusion that that beautiful woman is Salamander. Everyone is surprised that it''s not real...


    And at the same time, I was impressed by the fact that Salamander himself watched the festival.


    Salamander got a drink from the folks and it smiled beautifully.


    And I went straight down from the universe and walked under Tiara Rose.


    "I need to talk to you. I''m not."


    "... Yes. I don''t think you have much time, so if you''ll excuse me, let me be frank with you. My magic, I give. But it''s inconvenient and troublesome to remain a child. Would you like to set up a compromise?


    Whether I checked the library, asked Keith and the others, or talked to the Sandrose people... I ended up not getting a clue to get back to normal.


    Salamander will fall asleep after today''s festival, so it''s time out.


    "For example... when my magic is restored, I will give it to Salamander again"


    If it''s okay to fall asleep late, Tiara Rose thought this would be a good way.


    But Salamander shakes his head.


    ''No, you can''t.... but yeah. If you can defeat me, you can admit your strength and accept the compromise. "


    "Ya, knock it down......?


    "Yes. I am Salamander. I prefer to fight, the Spirit of Fire. ''


    What do we do? And Salamander provokes about Tiara Rose.


    Unfortunately, though, Tiara Rose has no combat experience, so even if she fought, the battle is visible. There''s no way you can win.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - How weak I seem, I''m too unscrupulous.


    Though I also feel like taking it with momentum, Tiara Rose is not stupid enough to take the kind of battle that wins and loses have already been decided.


    Next door to worrying about what Tiara Rose will do, Aquasteed looks worried.


    Regardless of the battles, Aquasteed decided that it was better for him to take on the negotiations here, and tried to open his mouth, but Tiara Rose uttered words before that.


    "I am weak, as it seems. I don''t like magic, and I''ve never dealt with weapons such as swords. Does Master Salamander have fun fighting me?


    ''Sure, I don''t think you can win. I don''t have any other hobbies, do I? Well, then¡­ I will attack, so why don''t you avoid it and prevent it? If you can do it unharmed, you win.''


    One shot at battle, then maybe it''s not bad, Salamander grins.


    Hearing that suggestion, I do convince Tiara Rose is better at defense. But that''s why we don''t know if we can prevent Salamander from attacking.


    - ''Cause it''s a boss class to see!


    If this was the world of maiden games, you would decide that even if Salamander appeared as a lass boss, it would be a reasonable placement.


    As Tiara Rose was about to decide to reply, Salamander looked bored and shifted her gaze... and stared at Aquasteed.


    "If I win, I''ll have him."


    "Huh......!?"


    Salamander says yes or no, he gazes at Aquasteed to show off his busty breasts. Stay close as you appeal to your limbs all the time.


    "Do not play, Salamander"


    ''Oh, that''s not true. I will fall asleep today, so when can I dream before then?


    Oh, my God, I seduce you about Aquasteed.


    Tiara Rose, of course, does not tolerate fine dust.


    "Dear Salamander! I''ll take that battle, so don''t give Master Aqua a bite!


    "Oh, you''re going to work hard even though you''re small?


    I thought I was just gonna wrap my tail around it and get away with it, and Salamander giggles.


    "You don''t have two words for what I said, do you?


    ''Course you do. I am a proud salamander, and I will not overshadow a word I uttered once.


    Between the two women, a bee and a spark scatter.


    It''s a battle with magic, but if you look at it from scratch, it''s only going to look like a battle with aquasteeds... that would be adorable.


    But what stops it is the Aquasteed himself, who is being made intentional.


    "Tiara, there''s no way you can forgive that. Please, take care of yourself."


    "No, Master Aqua. There are times when women really have to fight. I will definitely win, so watch over me."


    Powerful without saying whether or not, Tiara Rose rises.


    And without asking Aquasteed to stop, stand in front of the salamander.


    Then Saravia, who was just watching, also came here saying this was not a good idea.


    "Salamander, kitten, it''s not a good idea to be dangerous like that. Stop arguing."


    "This child has won a battle with me, and I will not stop now."


    "No! As usual, fill my belly with my magic. After this, if I give you the magic when I give you my last service, that would be possible, wouldn''t it? So give Kitten back her magic."


    ''I don''t like it. I told you, didn''t I? I think you''re more important to me than this girl. "


    So I don''t have that option from the beginning.


    Saravia punches her fucking tongue and makes her frustrated that everything is not going well. But what stopped it was Tiara Rose.


    "Emperor, don''t disturb me like that. Others will be anxious. And..."


    "And?"


    "I''m not going to lose."


    Tiara Rose declared so and smiled.


    Aquasteed and Salavia sigh that they won''t stop this anymore, no matter how much they stop it. Though only Pearl laughs with pleasure as he sees how it goes.


    Saravia goes next to Aquasteed and sees Tiara Rose and Salamander together.


    And what bothers me is the power of Tiara Rose.


    "It''s a hell of a kitten.... So, Kitten has a chance?


    "To be honest, I don''t know the strength of Master Salamander either... I didn''t think I could, but Tiara''s not supposed to be impotent either, so I guess there''s some kind of operation."


    "Operation..."


    I doubt that such a thing would make sense before the overwhelming power of fire in Salamander, Salavia thinks. But at the same time, sometimes it''s Tiara Rose who doesn''t know what to do, and the expectation that maybe...... also goes through the back of his brain.


    Tiara Rose and Salamander went up to the stage where Salavia had been earlier. Keep facing each other on the edge and edge. Is the distance between them, like, thirty meters?


    The invitees who were enjoying the festival also seem nervous about what is going to happen. The area is quiet and everyone is paying attention to the Tiara Roses.


    The way to compete is clear.


    Something about a salamander attacking from thirty meters away and Tiara Rose taking it.


    Salamander wins if the attack passes.


    If intact, it will be a win for Tiara Rose.


    Aquasteed speaks softly to Pearl standing behind him.


    "If you decide it''s dangerous, I want you to protect Tiara, whether you win or lose"


    "... I''m really worried about you. Well, look, you''ll see the results soon."


    At the same time as Pearl''s words, Salamander roared and unleashed his attack magic on Tiara Rose! A black flame mimics the figure of a dragon and continues in a straight line to Tiara Rose.


    The sound of the wind hanging up leaves me with the illusion that the dragon is groaning.


    "No way, such powerful magic...... Huh! Dear Pearl, Tiara like this!


    "Hmm. Can''t a flame like that lose a soft water?


    The next moment it looked as if a black dragon would storm as if swallowing Tiara Rose. But the moment I touched it, it scattered.


    "- Huh!?"


    Salamander, who undoubtedly thought he had captured Tiara Rose, cannot hide his surprise that his magic has disappeared. No, if I''m being exact - is it evaporation?


    The fiery dragon disappeared in a thinly stretched membrane of water around the Tiara Rose.


    "There''s no way a flame will work on a strawberry blessed Tiara Rose"


    "I see, the blessing of the Fairy King of the Sea... is it ever so awesome"


    Saravia breathes more than I could have imagined.


    Aquasteed is relieved from the bottom of his heart that Tiara Rose was safe.


    ''I never thought I''d lose. I may have insulted you somewhere about the fairy king of the sea.''


    As previously proclaimed, Salamander admitted his loss clean.


    Where the battle was decided, Shizuku poured down from the parallax and the sky. It''s clear, but it''s raining? And, though I thought so, this is water vapor water that was born from the impact of the Salamander and Tiara Rose forces bumping into each other.


    Somewhere, I heard a pounding squeal.


    "Fire and water¡­"


    "Is this the symbol of this festival?


    "At first I thought it was a problem, but it was a beautiful event"


    "That''s a fire and water festival."


    All that I saw said that the fire of Salamander and the water of Tiara Rose represented this festival.


    That''s not true at all...... and Tiara Rose laughs bitterly.


    - But if you''re mistaken, you''d better, wouldn''t you?


    So it was conveniently decided to lay low that we were simply fighting.


    "Damn, did you do it again, Tiara"


    "Keith! Speaking of which, Keith was looking for Master Salamander, too, wasn''t he?


    "No, leave that to Pearl. I was ready."


    "Ready?"


    Without knowing what the hell he''s talking about, Tiara Rose blinks her eyes with Salamander.


    "I''d rather show it to you than explain. We''re transferring."


    "Wow!


    Keith uses metastatic magic without waiting for the Tiara Roses to respond.


    Forced to transfer were Tiara Rose, Salamander, Aquasteed, Salavia and Pearl.


    "Is this... a statue of a goddess with a path leading to the temple of the Salamander?


    There''s so much change going on that Tiara Rose tells us where she transferred, but accidentally confirms it.


    From the foot of the statue of the goddess, green was sprouting.


    - And this leaf... "Tiara Rose Flowers"?


    Given Sandrose''s climate, Marine Forest''s National Flowers I didn''t think it was possible to grow them in the end.


    Why? Though I thought so, I soon realize it was Keith''s fault. The fairy kings of the woods are the easiest way to do this kind of art.


    Aquasteed also stands next to Tiara Rose in amazement.


    "Exactly, that''s all I can say."


    "? What do you mean?


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed can tell the name of this plant just by looking at the leaves, but Salamander and Salavia are tilting their necks without knowing.


    "I''ll leave the rest to you."


    "Dear Pearl?


    Make a sound and Pearl steps into the waterfront around the statue of the goddess. A brightly colored dress floats in the water and slowly moves forward in front of the statue of the goddess.


    And when I looked up at the fan from the bottom, and shook the wind against the surface of the water - the glitter began to shine.


    Then I wondered, even though it was only sprouting a little from under the statue of the goddess, it began to grow a little.


    "Is this... Pearl''s magic permeated the water"


    "Exactly. See, the proud buds of Marine Forest are now flowering -"


    With Pearl''s words, the buds bounced. A large pink wheel showed itself.


    Yes, it''s a tiara rose flower.


    The flowers that blossom to lean against the statue of the goddess are further down than the statue of the goddess - passing through the ground and stretching its roots to the beds of the salamanders.


    The flowers gently enveloped the goddess in a pale light, like a soothing Virgin.


    Saravia sees this sight and spits on it.


    "Is this a Tiara Rose flower? I never thought I''d see you blooming in my country."


    How fantastic and unconsciously wanting to see it closer, Saravia went to the water and touched the Tiara Rose flowers.


    And notice.


    "Does this flower have the same wavelength magic power as Kitten?


    It was Keith who answered the question Saravia had spoken.


    "Oh. This flower was born with the magic of Tiara, so it contains the same magic wavelength"


    "And that''s the real deal from here. Whew, Salamander. This flower roots up to the sleeping bed of the garden and can continue to send magic, albeit slightly. Why don''t you add that to your belly?


    ''I see what the Fairy King of the Sea was saying was about this.... Fine. I''ve lost like no other, so let''s accept this proposal.''


    Salamander laughs with a refreshing face and goes under Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. Saravia, who saw it, hastily followed Salamander to the side as well.


    "As promised, I will return half the magic I took to Tiara Rose. Wait for this flower to fill your stomach with magic. Sometimes don''t sleep right away, ''cause I think it''s a good idea to keep an eye on Sandrose.''


    "Yes, thank you for accepting our proposal. Dear Salamander,"


    When Tiara Rose gracefully thanked her, Salamander had giggled and offered her right hand.


    ''I don''t really like to be classy. So, is this the best way to thank me?


    For a moment to the word, Tiara Rose quickly makes a smile and nods. Then hold Salamander''s hand tightly and tie a stiff handshake.


    "Of course, Master Salamander!


    ''Thank you, Tiara Rose. You are such a noble queen. "


    Thus, in one paragraph, a proposal was made by Salamander concerning the future.


    "When it comes to gaining magic from flowers, that''s not enough. So, Saravia, if you have a lot of magic, or if you have a lot of kids, give me some magic."


    "Oh. It''ll take time, but I promise I''ll keep it."


    "Human time is not long for me. If you''re Saravia''s kid, I''ll wait for you as long as I can. ''


    The Tiara Roses became witnesses, and Salamander and Salavia exchanged promises.


    From now on, I will also be pleasantly promised to familiarize myself with the magic of Saravia by the water and to properly grow the Tiara Rose flowers.


    "It''s my turn next."


    Finally, now I can go back to where I was.


    I want to go back to adulthood soon. And I want Aquasteed to give me a proper kiss... although I can''t tell you how torn my mouth is on this occasion.


    "Tiara Rose, hands."


    "Yes."


    As I offered my hand as I was told, Salamander knelt before Tiara Rose. Then he puts his forehead on the back of his hand and returns a little bit of the magic he was taking away.


    Tiara Rose''s body reacts to the returning magic and has a slight fever. They leave me alone, so my child''s body gets sleepier and sleepier.


    Aquasteed gently supports Tiara Rose''s back, which has begun to gloat.


    When Salamander returns half his magic, Tiara Rose is completely in her dreams.


    Aquasteed thought I should wake him up, but I decided to let him sleep and hug him as he was, I''m sure he''d be tired of a lot of things.


    "By the time you wake up, rest assured that the magic you returned will be all over your body and your body will return to being an adult."


    "Okay. Thank you, Salamander."


    ''It''s okay. I am the one who cannot thank. You make me kind of jealous that such a good man belongs to Tiara Rose.... to apologize for the inconvenience, I''ll tell you one thing''


    With that said, Salamander hears that there is a softness to Aquasteed.


    "... it''s also romantic"


    I''m so excited for Tiara Rose to wake up now.

 120 15. I knew Id end up with a sweet kiss.

    When the morning sun slips through the window and Aquasteed wakes up, he loosens his cheek to Tiara Rose sleeping on his own arm pillow.


    "He''s sleeping like he feels good"


    This is how I don''t wake him up right away, and sometimes I like watching him sleep.


    How long has it been? Five minutes, enough, no, more time than that, I could have stared.


    "Mmm..."


    "Wake up?


    "Oh, my God?


    Tiara Rose blinks several times and rubs her eyes like she''s asleep.


    While I think I have to wake up, it''s so comfortable in the arms of the people I love that I want to stay stuck like this forever.


    "... that?


    "Hmm?"


    "Me, when did you fall asleep...?


    I have a broken memory where I have my magic returned to Salamander. I know that you''ve probably lost consciousness there.


    Seeing Aquasteed for answers, he was gently stroked on the back.


    "When I got my magic back, my body was warm with heat... sometimes I was a kid and I fell asleep just like that"


    "You were... sorry for the inconvenience"


    "No annoyance, that''s not true. Everything went well with the help of Dear Salamander, His Majesty Salavia and Keith and Pearl. Because Tiara worked twice as hard for me."


    Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose all the time as she praises her. Touch your head a lot, a gentle kiss on the temples.


    - Oh, it''s Master Aqua''s kiss.


    Glad.


    That''s what I thought. - That? And a certain question comes to mind. No, it''s not a question or anything.


    "I''m not staying a child!!"


    "Tiara, it''s..."


    Sure, sure, I should have gotten my magic back from Salamander, but what the hell does that mean? A sloppy, nasty sweat runs down his back, and Tiara Rose''s heart is like an early bell.


    Aquasteed is talking about something beside him, but his heart sounds loud and he doesn''t get it in his head at all.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    If you don''t calm down and think, Tiara Rose takes a deep breath.


    - Magic is returning to your body properly.


    I can tell that by the senses.


    Maybe if you rest a while longer, your magic will fully recover and you can return to adulthood.


    If that''s not possible, it''s possible that if you go back to the country and ask Claire or Ferres, they''ll tell you the solution.


    Now I tell myself I don''t need to be pessimistic.


    But, but even if I encourage myself to be okay... my anxiety is getting more pressing.


    "Akuasa well...... Huh!


    "Tiara, it''s okay"


    Blurry large tears overflowed Tiara Rose''s eyes and shook her head, "Why not?" It''s like I''m not in my ear to follow Aquasteed.


    "At all, it''s not okay! Don''t let Aqua kiss you like this!


    "Huh..."


    "I had my magic back, so I went back to being an adult and thought I was kissing a lot. We must have never kissed this long before."


    Seeing Tiara Rose, who cried genuinely blurry, I thought Aquasteed was cute, though careless.


    If I had a child, I''d be a better princess than a prince...... so much so that I thought about it.


    "Tiara, look at me because it''s okay"


    "Phew, ugh... properly, I''m watching. But I can''t stop crying..."


    "Sorry. I''ll stop you right away, forgive me"


    "... Huh? How do you... eh?"


    Aquasteed shrugged Tiara Rose''s jaw trapped inside her own arm and mouthed it on her plump, adorable lips.


    Tiara Rose opened her eyes in surprise, but soon she closes her eyes and leaves herself to Aquasteed.


    He is gentle at first and mouths me to stumble on a few times.


    Aquasteed''s arm is gently stroking my back so that Tiara Rose can rest assured. For the first time in a long time the warmth is comfortable and filled with the feeling of happiness.


    - You didn''t kiss me so hard.


    Will you kiss a crying woman? So much so that I could afford to think about it, Tiara Rose has also settled down.


    After several kisses and talking lips, Tiara Rose''s breath totally went up.


    "Ha, ha... eh...?


    I''m on my way to getting my breathing ready, and I''m amazed at the changes in my body.


    Because when Aquasteed kissed me, I looked like a child, and Tiara Rose was a former adult at some point.


    When I saw Aquasteed what he meant, he smiled extraordinarily gently.


    "Welcome back, Tiara"


    "- I''m home, Master Aqua."


    I stopped crying because of it, but now I''m surprised and happy and then happy and overflowing with tears. Aquasteed takes it with his lips and kisses it with his eyes, cheeks, forehead, nose and... in turn.


    "You''re just crying, you''re busy"


    "Ugh...... too many things to stop. Can''t you?


    "No? Yeah, but Tiara''s crying face makes me feel awesome, so in a way, you''re in trouble."


    "-!"


    In return for Aquasteed, Tiara Rose instantly turns her face bright red to her ears. I didn''t know what to reply to and tried to dive into a towel kettle...... I opened my eyes to my situation.


    "Geez, my clothes...... or cloth!?"


    "I''ve grown up from a child, so I can''t help it. Thinking about getting it back together, I had Filine tie me with a bow so I could get a bigger cloth in the shape of a garment."


    "Well, you did. But it is, isn''t it? When you grow up with your kids'' clothes, it''s tough..."


    Oh, oh, embarrassed, I''m so panicked in Tiara Rose''s head as she calmly replies.


    Ribbon just wrapped around a bigger cloth, just below, untied by a recoil back from the child. It''s like a gift that was wrapped but opened.


    Wrap the cloth around your body immediately and breathe like that.


    On the side, Aquasteed laughs as he says something outrageous, "I wish I could have stayed that way".


    "No.... but how did you get back at this time?


    "Right...... my kiss?


    "What!? But... I couldn''t get it back when I kissed you the other day."


    Of course, it would be very romantic if it was back to normal because of the kiss, but I''ve tried it before, so it doesn''t fall a bit.


    I''m very happy...


    But the answer was, Aquasteed gave it to me.


    "There was no magic before this. Now that the magic was back, it must have come back with my kiss. The princess is going back to normal with the prince''s kiss, isn''t she?


    "Dear Aqua..."


    This time, Tiara Rose nodded honestly.


    It''s true that, as Aquasteed says, the magic situation was different, so it''s also natural for the results to be different.


    - What are we gonna do, my face is gonna burn!


    I can''t believe you asked me to undo it with the prince''s kiss. King''s Road Expansion, what do you do without occasionally. When Tiara Rose is looking happy, Aquasteed kisses again.


    "... I wouldn''t condone that outfit forever, either, would I?


    "Huh?... hey, I''m going to get dressed!


    Tiara Rose turns bright red on an aquasteed that looks terribly fun to laugh at. I hurried straight out of my bedroom and went to the main room.


    The only person left in the bedroom is Aquasteed.


    "Really cute, Tiara is. He also totally believed me on the kiss story, and how much on earth do I feel captivated by me..."


    Aquasteed rolled a glowing red gem in his hand, while he fell asleep on the sleeping table.


    Actually, there''s a little tease about Tiara Rose getting back to normal in good time earlier.


    That''s "Salamander''s Tears" that Tiara Rose wore on her necklace.


    After Tiara Rose fell asleep to have her magic returned, Aquasteed was taught by Salamander to ''take off the gem and go back to where it was''.


    Though there was also a limitation that since I went to sleep and woke up...


    Salamander''s tears continued to send Tiara Rose''s magic to Salamander as a mediator. So it stayed small while I was putting it on.


    The truth is, I thought I''d take it off right away, but there was something about the clothes, and I explained it after I woke up and put it back together... But there were times when Tiara Rose was disturbed, and it suddenly became that way.


    This sounds like a romantic way, Salamander said.


    "I thought I''d give you a proper explanation, but maybe you should just kiss me back."


    Aquasteed decides that it is not necessary to bother teaching Karakuri later. Then get up from the bedroom and change into a ruffled shirt.


    "Well. I think I''ll have breakfast with Tiara."


    I''m sure today will be the best meal I''ve had since I came to Sandrose.


    Because you eat with Tiara Rose full of happiness.

 121 1. Letter from my parents

    A pleasant breeze and a sweet smell that smells all around you on it. Many young ladies are climbing the castle today at a tea party hosted by Tiara Rose, Queen of Marine Forest.


    In the gardens where colorful roses bloom, this again offers many kinds of treats and tea. All prepared by Tiara Rose herself.


    "I''m so happy to have a new treat devised by Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Yeah, really. Recently, a lot of sweet wrapping is cute. I''m always wondering which one to buy"


    "Eating, of course, but treats are important to enjoy with your eyes."


    Tiara Rose smiles tenderly at the ladies who have gathered. Inside, the new treat is accepted enough to make a gutsy pose.


    What kind of treats to make next, I think about that.


    One person who loves such treats is Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest.


    Fluffy honey pink hair and gentle watery eyes. The empire line dress, which is based on water color and white, is adorable and adds to her.


    I have been married from my neighbour Lapis Lazuli, the queen of this country.


    But actually, this world - it can also be a villain''s warrant for a maiden game called ''Lapis Lazuli''s Ring''. He was proposed and saved by his current husband, Aquasteed, from being acquitted and deported from the country.


    It must be understood that I love making sweets and eating them, even if I don''t have to say it anymore.


    So although I''m a villain''s warrant lady...... I live very happy now.


    As Tiara Rose was explaining the new cake to the ladies, Olivia came with a fan on her mouth.


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at the fact that the eye area looks very pleasant and she probably fans hiding her mouth that is about to burn to.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, this cake is so delicious. A combination of shortcakes and cheese would be nice."


    "Thank you, Master Olivia. I''m so glad you like it."


    "I''m so happy to have such a delicious cake. Besides, I can''t believe it''s handmade by a senior who''s a villain warrant lady."


    It was Olivia Ariadel who said it off in a sneaky way.


    Ribbon hair accessories for Roselette''s long hair. From the stylish Dade glasses, clear honey green eyes peek.


    She is a Duke''s house warrant and a villain''s warrant for the sequel to The Lapis Lazuli Ring.


    Love this game wholeheartedly, the character is heavily in love with all the deductions. Therefore, it is often exciting and nosebleeds...... By the way, my hobby is pilgrimage to the Holy Land.


    To Olivia, who wanted to let go and praise her, Tiara Rose said, "That''s great, isn''t it?" I''m happy and my cheeks are loose.


    When Tiara Rose looks around, there are already fewer cakes, macarons, Madeleine, etc. that were plentiful. I had intended to have a sufficient number, but it seemed fast to lose my mind.


    I''m just worried about adding it or not, but the tea party is about to end.


    Then the little voices of the ladies reached my ears.


    "Oh, you''re already out of new cakes..."


    "It was so delicious, I couldn''t help it. It''s an honor to invite you to Tea Party at Tiara Rose."


    "That''s right."


    Olivia, who was just listening with Tiara Rose, is nodding, yeah.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, the cake is very delicious"


    "We still have a little time, so have them bring us an extra. I wish I could hold more tea parties, but I haven''t had much time lately..."


    "You have a busy day."


    Tiara Rose has been busy here lately, traveling to other countries and then diplomacy. Now I''m just taking a breather, and this is how I can hold a slow tea party.


    - As queen, should we hold tea parties a little more often?


    Or should I actively participate in tea parties and night clubs? I have a lot to do as queen, and my eyes are going to turn.


    Olivia opens her mouth.


    "Then we''re having a tea party at home."


    "Thank you, Master Olivia"


    "That would be a little distracting, wouldn''t it?


    "... right"


    We talked in a whisper to hide in Olivia''s fan, and the two of us chuckled.


    At the end of the tea party, Tiara Rose snuggles around on her own couch saying, "I''m just tired..."


    "Ugh... I feel kind of tired lately. Could you have lost strength?


    I was still going to be young, but I''m not exercising from day to day. I guess I''ll have more time to walk...... what a thought, the sound of a knock sounded.


    When he enters the room, it''s Aquasteed who came in.


    "Good luck with the tea party, Tiara. I saw Miss Olivia on her way home earlier, and she told me to spoil her because Tiara seemed tired."


    "Master Olivia did that!?"


    Embarrassing! And Tiara Rose holds her reddish cheeks with her hands as she sits definitely back on the couch.


    What I''m trying to spoil is Aquasteed Marine Forest.


    Dark blue hair with ribbing golden eyes. Aquasteed, staring very happily at Tiara Rose, is her husband and king of this country.


    And it is also the main offensive target of the game sequel.


    Sitting beside Tiara Rose, Aquasteed gently touches her hair.


    I can stroke your head, "Good luck, good luck" as it is. That face looks like a lot of fun and this is like a reward for both.


    "... thank you, Dear Aqua"


    "Yeah."


    Posan and Tiara Rose lean over to Aquasteed.


    Then the fatigue will blow away as well.


    - Is Aqua a healing pill?


    Oh, my God, I think about it.


    "Still, this time it seems like you always had more invitees for the Tea Party"


    "Yes. It was very busy because everyone who invited me was present. I''m just afraid I couldn''t talk to everyone for long..."


    Now we''re going to reduce the scale a little bit and invite them back in several instalments, Tiara Rose tells us.


    "Tiara''s Tea Party is very popular."


    "I''m glad. Ladies and gentlemen, you really like the sweets... they''re going to spread more sweets."


    Once accepted by the noble lady, it penetrates the city more and more. The cooks hired by their houses will surely be better at making sweets as well.


    Aim, sweet powers no country can beat! Well.... what a joke, but I wish it were a national specialty.


    "Damn, Tiara''s driving force against sweets is amazing. I totally love sweets, too."


    That''s what Aquasteed laughs at.


    "... but"


    "Dear Aqua?


    Tiara Rose tilts her neck to the aquasteed that shows a slight bare gesture of thinking. Could it have been a treat you didn''t like -?


    Of course, that ends in concern.


    "I guess the sweetest thing for me is Tiara"


    "... Huh!


    Tiara Rose slowly closes her eyes as she sees her narrowed Aquasteed eyes approaching. And touch the lips, a gentle feeling.


    "... you see, sweet"


    Pellies and lips licked, Tiara Rose red to her ears.


    "That''s a sloppy way of saying it"


    Don''t you get tired of just kissing normally, sweet words are on the set. This is weirder that I''m not ashamed.


    As for Aquasteed, I can''t help but find that kind of reaction from Tiara Rose...


    When Tiara Rose hugs Aquasteed, who doesn''t want to show her face out of embarrassment, she can stroke her head okay.


    - Ugh, it''s so spoiled.


    I''ve already recovered to full health.


    Keep going slowly - that''s what I thought, arrow tip, a knock sounded in the room.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, this is Filine. Your husband is writing to you."


    "From your father?


    Allowing him to enter the room, Philine came with a letter.


    Filine Sanfist, samurai of Tiara Rose.


    He has yellow-green hair done with a made-up cap and is dressed in a clear samurai garment in a long skirt.


    I have always worked as a Tiara Rose samurai and am also like a sister and a comforting ally.


    The letter Philine brought was from Tiara Rose''s father, who is in Lapis Lazuli.


    It''s not unusual though, and my daughter Love''s father has written to me regularly.


    "Thank you, Philine"


    When Tiara Rose looked at the letter, she found a recent report here and...


    "Huh? Did you adopt a child?


    "Adopt a son?


    To Tiara Rose''s voice, Aquasteed and Filine also give a voice of surprise.


    What was written in the letter was that he welcomed a boy as his only adopted son to succeed him. At last, I want you to show me your face once...


    - I''m surprised, but we certainly don''t have a successor.


    "I was the only one in the Clamenteal family who had children, so I''ve been worried about the succession."


    So I''m a little relieved, and I go on with the words.


    "Right. Because Tiara got it for me, and I can only let her inherit it if she makes a child or welcomes an adopted child."


    "Yes. Now the Kramentiles are also cheap."


    "If you''re going to show me your face, I''ll adjust so I can go with you. Can you give me a minute?


    "Absolutely."


    I''ll write back to you later and report back home with Aquasteed when I calm down.


    You mean I can have a brother-in-law, right? I was wondering if we could get along. "


    To my first sister and brother, I get a little nervous.


    When I saw that, Philine said, "It''s okay!" and press the heartbeat.


    "Gentle Tiara Rose. Besides, if I wear Tiara Rose sweets, I''ll have kids!


    "If I say Filine, I''m already..."


    - Sure, Operation Sweet might be a good idea!


    Oh, my God, I think Tiara Rose, too.


    "So, who was adopted?


    Aquasteed asks, if he is the son of a nobleman, maybe he knows.


    Even if you didn''t know your children directly, you''d know more or less because Tiara Rose remembers all the Lapis Lazuli nobles.


    Although...


    "That''s not what I wrote in my letter about who I adopted..."


    Aquasteed and Filine also tilted their necks wonderfully at Tiara Rose, who wondered what it meant.

 122 2. Visit of the Fairies

    I sent a reply letter to my father asking me to come see him because I adopted him, and Tiara Rose starts preparing for her homecoming.


    Aquasteed may also go with him, and he made plans to leave about a month after he would be adjusting his work.


    Speaking of Tiara Rose, I''m just writing down some sweet recipes for my desk.


    Besides returning home, I''m thinking of giving it to Alan, Philine''s brother. Should be able to use it as a new menu for sweet stores I started for the common people. For this reason, it is relatively easy to make, and the cost of materials is limited to those that are low.


    Because he''s doing sweet related stuff, Tiara Rose mumbles her hum nose with fun.


    "Sounds like fun, Dear Tiara Rose. Did you have a good recipe?


    That said, Filine puts tea and Madeleine on her desk.


    "Thank you, Philine. It''s an arranged donut recipe, but I think it''s going to get popular from a wide audience because I''ve got something simple, big and a cute little one."


    "For Alan...... thank you, Dear Tiara Rose. I got a letter the other day and it said it was a lot of fun to do."


    "Good for you."


    Hearing about Alan''s started sweet store, he strokes his chest relieved that it''s going well. The new products we are going to deal with will surely also make them popular successfully.


    "You don''t seem to have a problem getting ready to go home."


    "Yeah. Are the other luggage okay?


    "Yes, because I have finished choosing everything I take. Plus, I''m staying at your parents'' house... and I don''t have a lot of luggage."


    To Philine''s words, Tiara Rose nods that too.


    The Tiara Rose room at my parents'' house is intact, as well as lots of confectionery related ingredients and cookware. Instead, I may not have to take anything.


    "It''s going to be a little longer, so I''d like to hold as many tea parties as possible before then. You''ve got a few invitations, haven''t you?


    "Of course it is. If Tiara Rose comes to the tea party, it will be foiled."


    That''s Tiara Rose, and Filine gets her chest stretched.


    "Big deal, Philly... oh?


    "Dear Tiara Rose?


    When Tiara Rose giggled dull, there was a sound of a concoction knocking on the window. Looking at something, the fairies in the woods were waving.


    "Tiara!"


    "I''m here for you."


    "Well, welcome"


    When you invite in the fairies who laugh at you, you jump around the room having fun. That looks happier than usual, and maybe something good happened.


    "You''ll bring sweets so the fairies in the woods can eat too"


    "Thank you, Philine"


    "Confectionery! Yay!"


    "Tiara''s sweets are delicious!"


    Apparently the fairies were delighted and Tiara Rose and Filine dust each other in the face.


    "Enjoy as much as you like"


    "Yay."


    The fairies in the woods, who had never eaten sweets before, had completely shifted Tiara Rose sweet lovers.


    Of course, as a Tiara Rose, you''re welcome to like sweets.


    The fairies came on Tiara Rose''s lap and started singing fun. Tiara Rose blinks because this has never happened before.


    - Wah, fairy song!


    First time listening. Besides, tension increases.


    Not that I''m particularly good, but the fairies'' voices are so cute. A gentle song that soothes the occasion.


    When he finishes hearing the song, Tiara Rose applauds.


    "You''re very good"


    "Eh heh!"


    When Tiara Rose praises, the fairies dye their cheeks so that they can illuminate. And ''I think I''m happy for you'' makes me look satisfied.


    This had to serve a special sweet to thank the song, and Tiara Rose looked at the fairies with a smile.


    "I''m glad we had a tea party before Tiara Rose returned home."


    "Thank you for inviting us today, Dear Olivia"


    Today, Tiara Rose and two young ladies are invited to a tea party at Olivia''s mansion. It is open in the garden of roses because of the beautiful weather.


    "It''s an honor to invite you to Tea Party with Dear Tiara Rose and Olivia!


    "Me, I''m looking forward to today and I didn''t sleep very well yesterday..."


    "It would be," Olivia nodded as the two warrants stared at Tiara Rose with her lucid eyes.


    "We also have Dear Tiara Rose''s cake today, so have fun. - Oh?


    "Master Olivia?


    Come on, sweets! By the way, I saw the rose that Olivia was planting with her eyes open. Tiara Rose shifted her gaze with him, and there were fairies in the woods.


    "Tiara ~"


    "I came to see you ~"


    Straw and lots of forest fairies came. I immediately lined up around Tiara Rose and said, ''Ah, Tiara''s treat!'' and sparkle your eyes.


    The fairies are on their desks and staring at the cake.


    ''Sounds delicious!


    "Tabbed - Yikes!!"


    "... Huh!


    The moment the fairies were happily playing cake, Olivia held her nose, not mouth - with a breathtaking handkerchief.


    Apparently, it''s the usual seizure (nosebleed).


    Sometimes there are the courtiers I invited, and can I call it years of moves to hit a handkerchief before they see blood?


    "But the fairies in the woods are at my tea party!? They''re adorable..."


    "Dear Olivia!? Please calm down"


    Tiara Rose rushes to give her handkerchief as well, but I can see Olivia''s face saying ''It''s the main hope''.


    Soon Levi, Olivia''s butler, will bring an extra handkerchief, but that gaze won''t move from the fairies.


    "Levi, please share the cake with the fairies in the woods"


    "Yes, sir."


    It was Levi, Olivia''s butler, who graced her.


    Sharp rose red eyes, dark black hair. Dressed neatly in butler''s clothes, he is very discreet.


    I am an excellent butler who is intoxicated by Olivia, but is it flawed in the balls that other than Olivia is not in much sight?


    "Go ahead, there was a fairy in the woods"


    When Levi cut the cake apart, the fairies sat at their desks happy to begin eating. The smiling sight makes not only Olivia, but also the two ladies.


    "Nice... I can''t believe I saw a fairy in the woods so close..."


    "Only Tiara Rose is blessed by the fairies in the woods, so we''re just so lucky to be able to see you like this"


    Thanks for letting me see the fairies in the woods, the ladies smile.


    Tiara Rose''s stock keeps rising because it''s what makes such a warrant girls smile "yummy ~" at the forest fairy.


    Tiara Rose would be happy with the nasty atmosphere, but Olivia seemed to be just a little lonely.


    "Dear Olivia, what has happened to you?


    The nosebleeds are reassuring because they are clumped, but I wonder if it is possible that I have pain or have dizziness due to anemia.


    Even though Tiara Rose was worried, Olivia shook her head small.


    "I rarely get to see the fairies nearby, so I just thought I''d be so happy."


    "Really?


    "Yeah, ''cause I''m a sequel villain''s warrant. Fairy blessings have not been received."


    ¡­¡­


    To the facts told, Tiara Rose holds her mouth.


    I wonder if it means that Olivia was hated by all the fairies, although she was hated by the sea fairies herself.


    - Villain lady, slap!


    Even though I don''t think I should, I want to fall for it on this occasion.


    "Never mind, Dear Tiara Rose. Am I very happy just to be nearby like this right now - ever?"


    Before I finish saying that, Olivia again holds her nose in a handkerchief. Apparently, today''s excitement doesn''t hold.


    Then the fairy, who finished eating the cake, came on Tiara Rose''s lap. And just like the other day, he started to look like he was having fun with "Ranlan ~".


    Apparently, they still perform the song today.


    "Well, cute"


    "I''ve never heard of a fairy before. That''s Tiara Rose."


    "I''ve never heard of it before."


    - But why are you singing?


    After listening to the fairies'' songs, Tiara Rose decided to listen.


    "Thanks again for a great song today. But why did you sing to me?


    Maybe a treat thank you. But the fairies just look at each other and laugh fun.


    "Hi-ha! I don''t want to."


    It''s Himitsu!


    "Yeah, is that a secret?


    "Really!


    Apparently, you can''t tell me.


    They didn''t tell me why, but it was a little later that rumors spread all over the country that Tiara Rose could dedicate a song to the fairies, making it harder for a while.


    A few days after Olivia''s Tea Party, the day of homecoming came to Lapis Lazuli.


    "You''re gonna get tired on the carriage for a while, so you''re gonna tell me as soon as you want to take a break, okay?


    "Yes, Master Aqua"


    I have plenty of time to stay in the city along the way because I can afford this date. So as for Tiara Rose, I wish I could have lots of dates with Aquasteed.


    By the way, although Tiara Rose doesn''t know, Aquasteed may already have plans for a date.


    "Tiara ~"


    "Are you going out?"


    The fairies who found Tiara Rose and Aquasteed in front of the carriage come and show their soggy faces.


    "Yeah, we''re going to Lapis Lazuli."


    ''I know, where Tiara was born, right?


    "The King taught me before!"


    "Come home soon ~"


    While the fairies seemed lonely, they smiled and said, ''Come on.''


    "I''ll give you Tiara''s favorite flowers."


    "Give ~"


    "This is a flower that can be used as an ingredient for sweets...! Thanks."


    "Eh heh."


    The fairies give Tiara Rose full of sweet edible flowers and chest up satisfactorily.


    "Thank you, forest fairies. Let me thank you too."


    Smile at the fairies, thanking them for the flowers they also got Aquasteed. And as soon as I got home, I laughed out loud thinking I would make sweets.


    No, maybe I''ll make it on the road. On the contrary, I might taste it - what a thought, "Dear Aqua?," Tiara Rose called her name.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What''s wrong?


    Tiara Rose tilts her neck when she sees Aquasteed suddenly shut up.


    "... no?


    Aquasteed with an attitude like saying it was nothing, but I took one flower with Tiara Rose in my hand. If you keep the petals in your mouth, you say, "That''s sweet."


    "It will be an ingredient for sweets."


    To the tickling laughing Tiara Rose, Aquasteed takes the remaining petals to its mouth.


    "It''s too sweet for me to eat it all by myself, so let''s do half of it?


    "... Huh! Dear Aqua, this is outside!?"


    I have flowers all over both hands of Tiara Rose so I can''t receive them. Aquasteed is a convict of knowing that and bringing petals to his mouth.


    After a few exchanges, Tiara Rose was eventually broken and fed.

 123 3. The Underground Incident

    It was a very sunny feeling to go home to Lapis Lazuli for a long time, but the moment I saw my parents'' front door through the carriage window...... Tiara Rose snapped her mouth.


    "Sorry! But I want to be Dear Tiara''s best friend forever!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone would have wanted to hold their heads to see what the hell they were doing.


    At the doorstep - an acari was sitting in the ground.


    I saw a clam sitting in the ground and a mother who was bewildered and urging me to go home. The servants, who refrained behind them, all look in trouble.


    "Uh, Dear Acari, such... oh, Tiara?


    "Huh? Ah, Dear Tiara!"


    As soon as Tiara Rose''s mother, Irtiana, noticed Tiara Rose''s carriage, Akali turned with joy.


    It''s such a full laugh that I don''t think I was grounded until just now.


    I wonder what this should do and Tiara Rose turns her gaze to Aquasteed sitting across the street. Likewise, I''m smiling bitterly.


    "... before, you must have come to apologize for when you attacked Tiara"


    "Huh? That''s... that''s so much more now"


    I nod so much that it is Aquasteed''s word. Sure, if that''s the case, I don''t know or know that Akali is coming to apologize in the dirt.


    The heroine of this maiden game, Akali Lapislazuli Lactomut.


    Beautiful brunette with glossy straight hair and black eyes. The peach-toned lace dress is adorable and enhances its presence.


    I love maiden games and I''m sure no one will beat me when it comes to my ability to act. Now I name myself Tiara Rose''s best friend, and we''re actually good friends.


    Tiara Rose gets off the carriage with Aquasteed escorting her as she endures wanting to sigh.


    "Long time no see, Dear Acari. I was very surprised to see such a scene when I returned home after a long time..."


    "Haha. Long time no see, Dear Tiara, Dear Aqua"


    "I had no choice," says Akali, hand-paying the dirt on his dress.


    "Because I wanted Tiara''s father to forgive me.... that he attacked Dear Tiara and caused her injury. Well, I can''t even get you to meet him."


    "Dear Acari..."


    I signed up for a visit with my father, but he didn''t seem to see me. Tiara Rose sighed this time wondering if that was why she was taking such hard means.


    "If so, you can contact me first."


    "This is between me and your father, so I won''t bother Dear Tiara.... I thought we could make up soon... I''m a heroine."


    - Even that heroine can''t be a non-attacker (father).


    His father, Schnaus, is a loving wife and a fool. There''s never going to be anything else to gloat about, and if it''s Tiara Rose related, it''s going to defy the royal life.


    As Tiara Rose and Akali interact, the comforting voice of "Welcome Back" reaches my ear.


    "I feel safe looking good, Tiara. Welcome."


    "Your mother seems fine and above all. I''m sorry, Mr. Akali bothered you..."


    "That''s not about Tiara apologizing. ¡­ I told Mr. Schnaus that once I met Mr. Akali, he was stubborn, wasn''t he?


    To Irtiana''s words, Tiara Rose can''t do anything but snort.


    "... For now, let''s get into the mansion. Me and Aqua have to say hello to your father."


    "I like that. I''m sorry, Sire Aquasteed. I''ve shown you something ugly."


    Watching Irtiana bow her head and apologize, Aquasteed immediately shakes her head. It was all about the acari being arbitrary, and the Clamentiel family had nothing to do with it.


    "No, because it''s not your mother-in-law''s fault. It''s been a long time since I''ve seen you."


    "Well, thank you. Let me show you to your room."


    Following Irtiana, who said so, Tiara Rose stepped into her parents'' house for the first time in a long time.


    "Dear Acari, have you been going by for days?!?"


    "Because if you don''t, you won''t forgive me!!"


    While waiting for Schnaus to come, the Tiara Roses talk in the reception room. The contents, of course, refer to the dungeon where the acari were.


    Apparently, he kept going underground to get forgiveness.


    Tiara Rose foreshadows, "I''m glad to hear how Akali feels," and opens her mouth.


    "It can be difficult for your father to accept an apology. I can''t even tell you that my daughter is clearly a very serious parent."


    That''s what made my father harrassed when he wouldn''t pop up in the first villain warrant felony event.


    Aquasteed agrees with Tiara Rose.


    "Even I didn''t mean to forgive Miss Acari."


    "Oh really?!? But Master Aqua treats me normally..."


    "Because Tiara, who''s supposed to be the victim, forgives everything, and you''re getting along with Miss Acari. Whatever I say would be useless?


    I hate it when Aquasteed says something and Tiara Rose goes in a direction she doesn''t want.


    "Thank you, Master Aqua"


    "Not at all. I''m left to be harassed because of that."


    "Ugh... sorry about that"


    It does bother me because when I''m with Akali, I feel like I can get tense and do anything. However, it is often saved by its positive character.


    Tiara Rose says difficult things with her mouth, but she also thinks that would be best if Acari and Schnaus reconciled.


    I was just wondering what was wrong, and Schnaus and Irtiana came.


    "Tiara, I''m glad you look good! Thank you, Your Majesty Aquasteed, for taking us far away."


    "I''m relieved your father hasn''t changed."


    "It''s been a while. I''ll take care of you for the rest of your stay."


    Schnaus is in a good mood because he hasn''t seen his daughter in a long time. "Dinner needs to be extravagant," he said, in an atmosphere where even flowers seem to be flying in the background.


    But then, I catch a clam at the edge of my sight, and that look breaks down.


    "Why does Master Akali? I have not given permission to enter the Mansion..."


    I felt the temperature in the room drop to Schnaus, who is telling me to leave in the dark. For once, the current acari is the queen of Haltnites, even though she is the first prince without the right to inherit the throne.


    Tiara Rose had to fix Schnaus'' mood somehow, but the acari moved before that.


    "Sorry, Dear Tiara''s father! My dear Tiara and I have made up already and we are best friends!


    "Shinyu...... Huh!?"


    Listening to Akali''s words, Schnaus is struck by the feeling of lightning falling. My own pretty daughter is such a fierce human best friend? Impossible, he said.


    Schnaus puts his hand on his forehead and breathes.


    "I seem tired too of hearing phantoms. I''ve been busy working here lately..."


    Apparently, he decided not to listen to Akali. Iltiana is a troubled face watching that behind her back.


    "... father"


    "Hmm? I don''t know, Tiara. Let''s make it a slow cup of tea till dinner, as we can carry some treats right away."


    "Well, sweets!... not"


    Calming his mind, which was about to rise unintentionally, Tiara Rose coughs with Cohon before calling Schnaus again.


    "Me and Lady Akali, we''ve really made up. Please, won''t you forgive Master Akali anymore?


    "Tiara......"


    Tiara Rose goes to the side of the acari and shows Schnaus smiling.


    Sure enough, they took my fianc¨¦e, wounded me, and Tiara Rose would have done a lot of terrible things to Akari. But it''s also true that I''ve had a lot of help so far.


    "Besides, Lady Akali also has a huge contribution to make to Lapis Lazuli. Aren''t they creating lots of fashions where women are happy, such as the spread of new accessories and treats"


    I also do my job as the First Prince''s Queen properly.


    That''s what my pretty daughter tells me, and Schnaus roars mummy. Of course, Schnaus knows what Acari is doing as the prime minister of this country.


    That''s why it''s a different issue from this.


    Acari takes a glimpse of Schnaus and sighs small that it seems difficult to get forgiveness after all.


    I didn''t expect you to forgive me that easily, but it''s more than I expected. Even today, I see Tiara Rose thinking I should go home now.


    "Thank you, Dear Tiara. I''m so glad you just said that. I''m just trying my best to make sure this world (of games) that I love is peaceful and happy"


    "Really, Master Akali loves this country"


    "That''s right, I love it. Because there''s no way you''re gonna hate me!


    Akali says with a smile that he wishes he had developed more.


    "............... well, you think so much about this country"


    "Father..."


    "Maybe I was the one who wasted all this time."


    Acari''s love of maiden games seems to have been conveyed to Schnaus even as he flipped a little. The wrinkled expression between the eyebrows earlier disappears, causing tenderness to soften somewhat.


    "Your Majesty Aquasteed also allows you to speak of the Akali?


    "... right. It''s not acceptable what she did to Tiara, but I think she''s giving Tiara more than that."


    "I see that such a thing..."


    No, Schnaus puts some loneliness in his eyes that a daughter is something that is growing up without his parents'' knowledge.


    "It''s okay, Father! Because Dear Tiara, I will be properly happy!!"


    "Dear Acari, That sounds like a proposal then!!"


    Don''t be a weird rhetoric, Tiara Rose stops the clams from cutting.


    "Oops, I was. As your friend, I won''t betray you for the rest of my life. I''ve always decided I''m on Tiara''s side."


    "Then I''m on Akali''s side."


    "Yes! If anything, I will fly to help, so please help me if anything happens to Tiara, too, right?


    Tiara Rose laughs at the clam that if I were there, it would be a hundred manpower. And at the same time, there''s no such thing as a scene where an acari gets pinched.


    "Master Schnaus, may I forgive you already? Haven''t Acari come to apologize every day for the past week or so, whether it''s windy or rainy?"


    "Iltiana... That''s right..."


    To a mouthful of schnauz, Tiara Rose pounds her hand.


    "Lady Akali often comes to see me, so why don''t you start by listening to me from Lady Akali? ¡­ it would also be cruel to tell your father to change his mind immediately¡­"


    "Oh, that''s good! I know so many cute stories about Dear Tiara and all that! I was so obsessed with making sweets that I didn''t even realize they were taking a break."


    "Hey, Dear Acari!?"


    I told you not to say that, and Tiara Rose upsets me.


    "... Tiara, don''t get carried away with making sweets all the time. You''re already the queen of Marine Forest."


    "I know, Father. Akali just said it a little too much..."


    "Then that''s what we''ll do............................ I don''t know if I can forgive Master Akali yet, but if this is enough to listen to Tiara, let me give you an ear."


    To Schnaus, who said with a little light, Tiara Rose was relieved that she was getting embarrassed.


    The day of inviting clams and having a tea party at my parents'' house may also come true as soon as I wish.

 124 4. Tiara Roses brother

    The day after returning home, Tiara Rose was finally to face the adopted child. I wait every now and then with Aquasteed for Schnaus to bring me in.


    "... Tiara, your expression is getting harder."


    "Ah! If I did... I''d get nervous. You''re going to be my sister, but you can''t."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly as Aquasteed clings to her cheek.


    I am somewhat anxious that I will be able to get along with the children who are going to be my brother-in-law. I don''t know what I would do if I didn''t get a very good impression.


    Though, as a Tiara Rose, I''m also trying to spoil you with a lot of friendship.


    "I hope every day is fun for Tiara''s brother."


    "Really?


    "Because I''m happy with Tiara every day"


    "... again, that''s what I''m saying..."


    I wonder if Tiara Rose''s mouth is made of sugar while wrapping her hot cheeks with both hands.


    A knock sounds in the room on the lid, and Tiara Rose corrects her posture hah. "Go ahead," he says, encouraging him to enter the room, I see Schnaus and the child behind him.


    - Wow, beautiful girl...


    The boy, more transparent than expected, shows up and is unintentionally breathtaking.


    "Sorry to keep you waiting."


    "No, Father, please introduce my brother-in-law"


    "Oh. Come on, it''s your sister Tiara Rose. Say hello."


    When Schnaus gently pressed the child''s back, he came out in front of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. Though I tended to lean a little, I took a quick look at this one before bowing.


    "Nice to meet you, Darrell. Thank you very much."


    Darrell Lapis Klamentir, who became Tiararose''s brother-in-law.


    He was six years old, a beautiful boy with light watery hair and blue eyes. White based outfit with black knee-length trousers. Ribbons are tied around the neck.


    I blinked a few times, but his expression like a doll didn''t move. As soon as I said hello, I leaned down, so maybe I''m familiar with people.


    Tiara Rose slowly goes forward and crouches to get the same gaze so as not to scare Darrell.


    "Nice to meet you, Darrell. I am Tiara Rose. Can you call me Tiara, please?


    ".................. Yes. Sister Tiara."


    Tiara Rose breathes relief when she sees Darrell snort. Apparently, I''ve never been hated.


    Next, Aquasteed greets Kneeling Darrell in the same way.


    "I''m Aquasteed Marine Forest. Tiara''s husband, king of Marine Forest."


    "It''s an honor to meet you. Thank you very much."


    To Aquasteed''s greeting, Darrell bows back politely.


    It''s still an unstoppable move, but Tiara Rose and Aquasteed thought I must be nervous.


    Sit on the couch and have tea prepared.


    Tiara Rose groans about what to talk to Darrell, but suddenly worries her head that it''s not a good idea to keep asking questions and scaring her.


    "I''m relieved to have greeted you safely. Darrell, it''s great to have a proper greeting."


    "Yes."


    When Schnaus stroked his head and praised him, Darrell, who was faceless, smiled slightly. Seeing that, Tiara Rose is relieved that Darrell seems to be opening his heart to Schnaus.


    I hadn''t heard how he was adopted, but I guess he has a proper relationship as a parent and child.


    "Darrell, I can''t stay that long, but let''s go out and play a lot."


    "... Yes. Thank you."


    Darrell nodded at Tiara Rose''s words, but her face had returned to her faceless expression at the beginning of her entry.


    - Could you have asked me out all of a sudden?


    As Tiara Rose slowly drops her shoulders, Aquasteed opens her mouth to follow it.


    "I''ll be Darrell''s brother-in-law... Same guy, you can always count on me if you need anything. Although I have a very dependable father-in-law nearby"


    To say that and laugh, Darrell just nodded the same way he did when Tiara Rose. Nevertheless, I don''t do anything to force you to pack the distance.


    Tiara Rose thinks about getting along a little bit. I''ve just been adopted and I''m probably just getting used to this house all the time.


    "Yes, does Darrell have anything he likes? I like sweets. I''m also good at making them, so I''m going to make some cakes for Darrell too... do you like sweets?


    In that case, when it''s a sweet topic, Tiara Rose recollects herself and smiles and talks.


    Darrell glanced into his eyes and tilted his neck. Apparently, you''re thinking of replying to Tiara Rose.


    After a moment of silence, Darrell nodded. Apparently, sweets and sweets fall into my favorite category.


    Tiara Rose is relieved.


    - Great, you can enjoy the sweets together!


    What a bunch of things I thought. Darrell caught a glimpse of Schnaus and got up off the couch.


    And I bowed deeply as it was, and I walked out of the room.


    "........................... Huh?


    Tiara Rose trembles wondering if she could have talked about Sweets.


    "Oh, I''m fine, Tiara. Darrell''s just not used to it yet, I''m sure he just doesn''t know how to deal with it"


    "Perhaps so..."


    "... Could it be Darrell''s origins or something for a reason?


    Still where Tiara Rose thought she was lonely, Aquasteed saw Schnaus.


    Exactly, he seemed to think it was strange that he adopted the son of a nobleman. Schnaus takes a big breath and sees Tiara Rose and Aquasteed.


    "Your Majesty Aquasteed has a vision."


    To Schnaus''s words, Tiara Rose also asked, "What do you mean?," he frowned.


    I thought he had exactly welcomed every three or four men of some nobility into adoption. But that doesn''t seem like it when you look at Schnaus.


    But if not, who?


    Think so, Tiara Rose may open her eyes.


    - No way, royalty that was hidden from existence!?


    Abandoned right after birth, raised as a commoner - what a really maiden game-like story. Rather, it''s a setting with a high probability of coming out.


    Tiara Rose is absolutely certain. I''m sure Schnaus will explain it to you from now on, but it looks like you can hear it without surprise.


    Tiara Rose slows her breathing down.


    "Father, tell me about Darrell"


    "... oh, of course"


    Schnaus nodded and slowly began to talk.


    "Darrell is apparently a wizard''s apprentice"


    "... Huh?


    Tiara Rose, who thought she was an abandoned royalty, looks at Schnaus in a pompous manner. but the story of Schnaus continued.


    Retrospective, a few months ago.


    Schnaus was taking Irtiana out to a flower garden in the suburbs. The two who are still lovely are not uncommon to go out like this on holiday.


    "Master Schnaus, there are very beautiful flowers here."


    "Mmm, that''s good stuff. This is like the color of Iltiana, that''s like the color of Tiara over there."


    "Well, Master Schnauz."


    Iltiana laughs when she sees Schnaus in a good mood.


    As they sat near the flower garden and enjoyed their tea, they heard something barking from afar.


    "What...?


    "Irtiana, behind me. Find out what''s going on right now."


    Schnaus stands up to shelter Irtiana and asks his squire to check the status quo. The knight of the escort is with us, so there will be no danger unless there is something like it......


    "Dear Schnaus..."


    To the anxious Irtiana voice, Schnaus smiles and looks like he''s okay.


    "It must be a dog or something. But wild dogs are dangerous, so let''s wait in the carriage just in case."


    "... Yes"


    "What, the knight will deal with it right away. Don''t be so anxious - eh, Iltiana!!"


    made a loud noise from behind the stirrups, and Schnaus hugs Irtiana in an aggressive manner. At that moment, a wolf popped up towards us.


    "Gawwwww!"


    "Ugh... Huh,!


    "Khaaaa! Dear Schnaus!!"


    The shelter of Irtiana caused the wolf''s fangs to strike Schnaus. I just got my right arm bitten by a wolf, and blood runs.


    "Somebody, Master Schnaus... Huh!


    "Dear Schnaus, Dear Iltiana!!"


    The knight of the escort, who has rushed quickly, defeats the wolf with his sword. It was a short time ago, but Iltiana has too many things going on to keep her from thinking.


    More than that, more than anything...


    "Dear Schnaus!!"


    I raise my voice that I must immediately help my own husband, who is bleeding and suffering. Not if you''re scolding the escort knight who was too late to come and help you now.


    "... it''s okay, Iltiana. He just bit me, it''s not that important. More than that, I''m glad you''re not hurt."


    "Please take care of yourself more, Master Schnaus..."


    "Hey, you''re my treasure. It''s natural to protect it."


    I look at Schnaus smiling gently and relieve him that for one second there doesn''t seem to be anything else in his life. Nevertheless, if I keep cheering, it gets worse.


    "Bring me a doctor, quick!


    "Shh, soon..."


    The moment the escort knight turned back about to run out, Sole appeared in sight.


    "Are you hurt?


    It was Darrell who showed up then.


    Schnaus moisturizes his throat with tea and continues.


    "No, I was really surprised then. Darrell used healing magic to heal my arm injury."


    "Darrell has that power...?


    "Surprised..."


    Healing magic is very difficult and unusual for people to use. Although Akali can use healing magic as a prayer for the Virgin, there will be only a few hundred people in the country except for that. Plus, a few people say it''s a level that can be completely cured... etc.


    "We invited Darrell to the Mansion to thank him for his curative magic."


    "You were..."


    "I just didn''t know what the hell Darrell was like"


    I don''t know how much Darrell''s identity I look into, and he doesn''t really talk about himself either. Schnaus and Iltiana said they must have thought that he had lived to the fullest while being an orphan.


    Then she tried living with me for a while and adopted me because I had a small mouth count but a kind child with a heart.


    "But healing magic skills are amazing, so we''re talking about whether he was a wizard''s apprentice, not an orphan. I think it might make me feel a little bit easier over there, and I try to feel that way while Darrell doesn''t say anything."


    "Your father doesn''t know much about Darrell, either."


    "Yeah, but I know you''re a good kid, so I''m going to slow down my distance as a parent and child."


    That''s what I said. Schnaus already looked like Darrell''s father.

 125 5. Healing Power

    After greeting Darrell, Tiara Rose returned to her room with Aquasteed.


    Immediately Filine brewed me some tea, so I decided to relax on the couch.


    "Phew..."


    Sit deep down on the couch, thinking you might be a little bit behaving. Then Aquasteed, sitting next to him, hugged him about Tiara Rose.


    "Tiara, are you okay? Maybe he was tired on the road."


    "Wow, thank you. I think I''m used to riding in carriages, but it was a long journey."


    Although I may behave a little badly, it''s been a long time since my parents decided that if Aquasteed next door was going to spoil me...... I''d get sloppy.


    Leaning on Aquasteed, I feel very relieved.


    Philine also looks worried and sees Tiara Rose.


    "Would you like to call a doctor?


    "You don''t have to go that far, Philine. ''Cause I think it''ll be better if we take a little break."


    "... ok. But if you need anything, please tell me right away, right? I will arrange a doctor even at midnight!


    Philine stabs me in the nail when I absolutely can''t force you to make it worse.


    "Then I beg your pardon once. If you need anything, call me right away"


    "Yes. Thank you, Philine"


    As Filine leaves the room, Aquasteed peeks into Tiara Rose''s face with a pranky grin.


    "Dear Aqua?


    "I work too hard, so sometimes it''s important to slow down like this. Why don''t you lay down?


    Aquasteed makes it easy for me to knee-pillow Tiara Rose.


    "Awww."


    "Look, close your eyes and take a deep breath. It''ll calm you down, won''t it?


    "... Yes"


    He shrugs his forehead with his fingers and strokes his head to calm him down. Tiara Rose thinks if they do this to me, they''ll let me melt them down.


    - But it''s comfortable...


    Close your eyes slowly, wanting you to stroke more.


    "... Aqua-sama''s hand, it''s cold and pleasant"


    "I have a slight fever......? Maybe I''m done greeting Darrell and I''m relieved."


    "Perhaps so. But... I''m surprised. I just thought I''d taken a son from some nobleman."


    Tiara Rose wondered that it was a little reckless behavior for her father. However, although Darrell, whom I spoke earlier, did feel very calm and good.


    That seemed to be the same for Aquasteed.


    "If you succeed, it is common to have children of relatives. Maybe there''s some other reason."


    "Perhaps so. I''m going to talk a lot about getting to know Darrell better during my stay."


    If you grow up fine like this, you''re sure to be a Lapis Lazuli executive. At that time, I want it to be a pattern while I can smoothly conduct diplomacy with Marine Forest.


    Thinking about it, I''m looking forward to Darrell''s growth now.


    "Then we need to get better first. Because if you stay ill, you''ll worry about Darrell."


    "Yes. It''s just... I don''t have any appetite, or maybe I''m tired. You may not have much dinner either......"


    Maybe they got buttered by changes in temperatures, etc.


    "... Ha, shouldn''t I make sweets for when I couldn''t have dinner!?"


    When Tiara Rose says she''s going to be able to eat it for now, Aquasteed laughs "here" bitterly.


    "... it''s a joke"


    "You have to eat the staple food properly. But if you''re energetic enough to say that, I''m a little relieved, too."


    Aquasteed chuckled, so Tiara Rose was also put on and smiled. The time to relax like this is precious without worrying about your job.


    - Something that really bothers me about time when I have a job for Master Aqua.


    So I''m actually very, very happy to be able to be alone without worrying about Aquasteed''s time.


    Therefore, the knee pillow was also relatively able to accept very well. Tiara Rose also wanted to be sweet because she was tired.


    - Ugh, my face is going to burn...!


    If you hide your face with your bare hands, you will immediately hear a murky "tiara" coming down from Aquasteed.


    "Here, then I can''t see your face"


    "Don''t be ashamed of yourself..."


    It melts. That''s what I thought, and the sound of a concon and a knock sounded in the room to inform the visitors.


    "Oh?"


    "Shall I deal with it? Tiara, stay seated."


    "... excuse me. Thank you, Master Aqua."


    Watching Aquasteed head to the door, Tiara Rose sits back on the couch properly. Filine can stay put, but there is also the possibility that parents and other servants...


    - If they saw a knee pillow, they''d be embarrassed to look at each other...!


    I heard Aquasteed talking and came back inside the room. When I saw it, it was Darrell who visited me.


    "Sorry to interrupt all of a sudden..."


    Darrell seems restless and twitchy. Aquasteed tried to advance the couch, but continued the words before it.


    "... Dear Sister Tiara, your stomach... are you okay?


    "Huh?"


    Two Tiara Rose and Aquasteed raise their voices to the content cared for by the lid. Sure, I''m tired and have slight fever, but it doesn''t mean I''m not feeling well in my stomach.


    - Darrell was worried about me and you came to see how it went.


    Its kindness makes my heart warm.


    "Thank you, Darrell. I''m not that sick, so I''m fine. I can''t believe you''re worried about my sister."


    I was actually going to be the sister I could count on, but I got worried from the run out. I''ll just have to salvage this in the sweets when I get better.


    "... Really?"


    Darrell breathed in relief and smiled.


    "Let''s get some tea ready right away. Darrell, please go to the couch."


    "Yes."


    When Darrell sat on the couch, Aquasteed prepared himself a cup of tea.


    "Dear Aqua, I..."


    "No, you can''t. Tiara needs to slow down a little bit.... well, it''s going to be inferior to Tiara''s brewed tea"


    Aquasteed laughs when she''s sorry in that regard.


    "That''s not true, Master Aqua. I''m so glad."


    "Really? I''m glad you''re here. Above all."


    Aquasteed put the tea in front of Darrell and sat back next to Tiara Rose.


    "I wanted to talk to Darrell a lot during my stay. Could it have been your life here? There will be a lot of hard times, but your father thinks about Darrell properly, so if you need anything, talk to him right away."


    "... Yes. I know what you''re getting better at."


    Darrell nods and stares at Tiara Rose.


    "Sister Tiara was told she was the queen of neighboring Marine Forest. That''s why I missed you so much."


    "If you father..."


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed laugh bitterly when their daughter is in love with education. The look of Schnaus, who seems lonely, immediately comes to my attention.


    "We can''t leave the country too often, so it''s hard to go home often."


    "Yes, that''s what your father said too"


    I don''t know if I could be more free as an aquasteed... but I can''t create opportunities for you to meet so often because the country is different and at different distances.


    Nevertheless, Tiara Rose appreciates that she has responded adequately.


    "It''ll still be difficult now, but Darrell should also come to Marine Forest once he''s older. Some things are different from Lapis Lazuli, and I can spread the word."


    "Yes. At that time, your father will take you with him"


    "That''s good."


    Darrell seems to have a good son, also thinking about his daughter Love Schnaus.


    Aquasteed thinks it might work, though he thought it was still an unwieldy parent-child relationship.


    ".................. ha fu"


    "Tiara?"


    "Tiara, your sister?


    Aquasteed and Darrell talking gave me a spicy exhale from Tiara Rose. When I see it, my cheeks are slightly redder than they were earlier.


    "Maybe you''ve got a fever..."


    Touch Tiara Rose''s forehead and Aquasteed measures its heat.


    "... you''re hotter than just now. Tell Filine I''ll have her arrange a doctor right away. Darrell, I''m gonna take a few seats off, so I''m gonna stay with Tiara. - Darrell?


    Darrell got up off the couch and came in front of Tiara Rose whether she heard Aquasteed or not.


    Darrell, I''m fine.


    Tiara Rose asks Darrell to leave if she has a cold. But Darrell shook his head sideways.


    "After all, it looks painful..."


    You said you couldn''t be okay earlier, right? And Darrell looks lonely. But it wasn''t really that hard earlier.


    Darrell took Tiara Rose''s hand and closed her eyes.


    "Darrell?"


    "What the hell..."


    Darrell''s body glowed pale as Tiara Rose called her name and thought about what Aquasteed would do. Gentle, watery light.


    "This is..."


    What Darrell used was the healing power that Schnaus was talking about.


    A gentle light passes through Darrell to Tiara Rose, and her body warms up. My breathing, which was hard, quickly calmed down and my body is lightening up.


    Tiara Rose was surprised that she seemed ill more than she thought.


    "So this is Darrell''s power... wow. Something that makes me sick no longer look like a lie. Thanks, Darrell."


    Darrell nodded small as Tiara Rose thanked her.


    "I was asking the Marquis earlier, but that''s an amazing power... Thanks for helping Tiara, Darrell."


    "... Yes"


    When Aquasteed is equally thankful, Darrell laughs happily.


    "Tiara, she''s happy because your sister''s feeling better."


    "That kid?"


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed tilt their necks at Darrell''s words like pretending.


    The only people in this room are Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. I''ll look behind you just in case, but there''s nobody else.


    Then Darrell pointed to Tiara Rose''s stomach.


    "Because I was worried that I was not feeling well and that my sister Tiara was not feeling well..."


    "What is this place..."


    Tiara Rose looks at her own stomach and gently attaches her hand.


    If what Darrell says is true, it will mean she is pregnant with a child with Aquasteed.


    I take a deep breath to calm down, but I do recall wondering if the moon thing is lagging behind.


    - I just thought it was because of my busy schedule and my long carriage journey.


    Sometimes, it beats faster.


    When I saw Aquasteed right next door, I was holding my mouth. Breathtaking, I found my eyebrows swaying with joy.


    "Dear Aqua, I..."


    "I''ll get a doctor right away! Tiara must remain still. Like?"


    "Ha, yes... Huh!


    Aquasteed dropped him off from the room and Tiara Rose thanked Darrell again.

 126 6. Worrying Aquasteed

    "Tiara, you can never wear a dress with your shoulders on. Don''t let your body cool down, make yourself comfortable."


    "... uh, yes"


    I was immediately diagnosed by a doctor and Aquasteed told me that at the opening. And they put a cardigan on me.


    I''m not that cold because I''m on the bed, but I''m glad you care.


    As Tiara Rose snorted bitterly, she was hugged sooner or later when she said something.


    "And then, thanks. Give us our children."


    I''m glad to hear Aquasteed in Tiara Rose''s ear. I find myself trembling with joy, and oh, I realize I really have a child in my stomach.


    - With Master Aqua, children......


    "I''m the one who''s happy. Thank you, Master Aqua."


    "From now on, we need to try harder to protect you both. Oh, I want to see you soon."


    "Dear Aqua, I feel fast..."


    Tiara Rose smiled as she stroked Aquasteed''s head, which gently touched her stomach.


    In anticipation of spending some time with one Aquasteed, Philine and Elliot came.


    "Congratulations, Dear Aquasteed, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "I''m already happy... Congratulations, Dear Tiara Rose, Your Majesty Aquasteed!


    You know, Elliot, who looks happy, and Philine, who''s happy in tears.


    "Thank you, both of you. Philine, if you cry so much, so do I."


    If they''re going to catch me and cry, even if Tiara Rose tries to endure tears all the time...... my eyes are twitching.


    "Tiara, you don''t have to put up with anything"


    "... Yes"


    Aquasteed strokes my head, and the puffiness and tears drop zero. Glad to hear it, I can''t believe there''s so much tear in it.


    "I hope I fall asleep like this because I''ll be tired of everything going on today"


    "But Elliot came because of me..."


    It''s also bad to fall asleep without much talk - yes Tiara Rose tried to say it, but Philine opens her mouth before that.


    "You mustn''t, Master Tiara Rose! Think of your body best now."


    "That''s right. It''s enough to see how well I''m doing."


    Tiara Rose giggles at Philine, who looks impatient.


    "So why don''t we take a sweet rest to your words today?


    "Yeah, please don''t. How about some tea or something before you go to bed? Your body will warm up."


    Let me ask you a favor.


    "Yes."


    Aquasteed strokes Tiara Rose''s head slowly again as Elliott also lowers with Filine, who prepares for tea.


    If they do that with gentle, big hands, the sleeper will attack.


    - I''m glad, but...


    "Dear Aqua, if they stroke you so much, you''re going to fall asleep before Filine brings you tea..."


    When I say that with my face red, I get a tickle laugh.


    "That''s tough"


    "You definitely don''t think that...?


    "I don''t know.... but because I''m so glad Tiara sleeps safely beside me"


    They tell me I can''t stop stroking you.


    "Well, this is my only privilege, okay? I''m the only one who can touch Tiara."


    "... Yes"


    To the aquasteed that reveals the desire for exclusivity. Slightly lower voice, colorful eyes. Sometimes I get more than I need to.


    Tiara Rose stares at Aquasteed.


    - Even I want to touch it.


    But now, you''d better rest, even though Darrell has healed you. Aquasteed stroking the smile and tiara rose looks like a lot of fun and the happiness meter goes up.


    "... Dear Aqua"


    "Yeah?"


    "I want to touch it too, so... how about this?


    That said, Tiara Rose takes the Aquasteed hand she was stroking and tangles her fingers. Then bring it straight to your own cheek and rub it off like a small animal.


    ".................. tiara"


    Aquasteed holds his temple with his free hand and breathes.


    "Tiara''s really good at stirring me up..."


    "Well, that''s not what I mean...... Huh!


    "I know. I just can''t help but love Tiara too much."


    "~ ~!"


    Aquasteed''s fingertips touching Tiara Rose''s cheeks tickle Tiara Rose.


    "Yikes! Dear Aqua......"


    "That''s about it, right? Bad cute tiara."


    Hehehe, Aquasteed''s fingertips touch me to enjoy the feel of my lips. Slowly, my body trembles.


    Aquasteed''s hot eyes are turned and he breathes unexpectedly.


    "... I like it"


    "Tiara?"


    "I love it, Dear Aqua..."


    Wrap your hands around the aquasteed that is touching you and give it a kiss that can be plundered at its fingertips.


    Tiara Rose hangs on and puts a naughty smile on Aquasteed.


    "Did Aqua, too, occasionally? ¡­ I''ve been around for a long time."


    That''s why I wanted Aquasteed to come along and try to kiss me, Tiara Rose says.


    "... every now and then when you''re touching Tiara."


    "Huh?"


    Aquasteed, who told him he could be more confident, slowly kisses Tiara Rose so he can cover her.


    "Mmm..."


    As soon as the lips away from him were slightly remorseful and opened his eyes, his gaze coincided with the golden eyes of Aquasteed, which were close by.


    - Oh, Dear Aqua, it''s close...


    But it''s comfortable.


    From now on, this man will not only protect himself, but also the beloved child who lived in his stomach. I''m sure there''s nothing I can do to make you feel so safe.


    "Thank you for your continued support for me and this child"


    With that said, Tiara Rose hugged Aquasteed all the time.


    "Of course."


    Aquasteed hugged Tiara Rose back and gave her another gentle kiss.


    The next morning, Tiara Rose wrote Philine''s "Good Morning!" I woke up with a voice. Looking next door, Aquasteed seems to have already woken up.


    "Morning, Philine. ¡­ I wonder what time it is now"


    Looking out the window, it''s much brighter now. Tiara Rose panics that she may have fallen asleep.


    "Take your time, Dear Tiara Rose. It''s ten o''clock now, so it''s certainly later than usual...... because we had a lot yesterday"


    Philine smiles as she tries to make it into a light breakfast.


    "Is it that time already?... I slept early yesterday."


    "That''s all I was tired of. I have a baby on my stomach now, so I need you to take it slower than usual! I''ll keep an eye on Tiara Rose so she won''t be impotent, okay?


    Philine, who swears to protect Tiara Rose from anything, is as reliable as Aquasteed.


    "Thank you, Philine. That''s very comforting."


    "Leave it to me! I will try to protect Master Tiara Rose from anything! Even if that is a hard choice, I will be careful if you eat too much sweets......!


    "... Huh!


    Filine''s words struck me in the head with cancer.


    - Yay, you may not eat too much sweets for sure!!


    Instead, I''ve been eating whatever I want. Tiara Rose can''t help but cry for a child.


    Seeing how it goes, Filine decides to give away the biggest cake in the world when her child is born.


    "Well, get dressed for breakfast..."


    Don''t, don''t!


    "Yikes! What sound...!?"


    There was a loud noise in the mansion as Tiara Rose rose out of bed. Surprised and grabbed by the pillars of the bed, Filine smiled bitterly, "Here we go......"


    "Looks like we''re gonna fix the mansion."


    "Huh? I didn''t talk about that yesterday..."


    Maybe I went home at a busy time. But "that''s different," Philine shook her head.


    "Master Tiara Rose is pregnant, so it looks like her husband is in a hurry to fix the mansion."


    "Huh?"


    He said, "Loosen up a little bit."


    "Father..."


    What an early start yesterday today makes me want to hold my head. Nevertheless, I know perfectly well that you are happy enough to do that.


    As Tiara Rose finished her dominance and headed to the dining room, a panicking voice of aquasteed sounded.


    "Tiara, isn''t the stairs dangerous...?


    Tiara Rose shakes her head in a hurry to Aquasteed who tells her to wait because she hugs her. I just don''t need you to do that.


    "It''s okay, Master Aqua! Because you should move your body a little!


    "Yes...? But tell me as soon as it gets a little hard."


    Aquasteed, who looks worried, comes beside Tiara Rose to escort me.


    "Yes, thank you...... Ah, good morning, Dear Aqua"


    "Oh, you haven''t said hello yet. Morning, Tiara. How are you feeling?


    "I slept plenty, so I''m fine. Thank you, Master Aqua."


    "Good for you."


    I was just relieved, and now there was Schnaus downstairs. Apparently, he''s talking to a contractor repairing the mansion.


    Those eyes are raunchy and lively.


    - Father, so full of motivation...


    "Aren''t our stairs too high!? It''s tough for Tiara to fall, so get a remodel right away...... Huh!!"


    If it''s a simple fix to the mansion, Tiara Rose will still be returning to Marine Forest by the time it''s finished, even if it''s remodeled now.


    Just a little too floating, Aquasteed and I smile face to face.... but Aquasteed also didn''t want you to plan at high speed that you might need to remodel the castle in your head.


    Slowly down the stairs, Tiara Rose speaks to Schnaus.


    "Good morning. And then there''s no need for that...... Father"


    "Oh, good morning, Tiara. Is your body all right? You don''t have to do much, do you? The refurbishment... right, maybe after Tiara leaves. You shouldn''t be too loud right now."


    Apparently, doing the refurbishment is a decision in Schnauz. As a Tiara Rose, I don''t think I need to do that much, and I want your help and see Aquasteed.


    "It''s okay, Tiara. I''ll give you instructions to finish in a hurry by the time I get home."


    "Oh, that''s not true, Master Aqua!?"


    I don''t think Tiara Rose can say anything to these two men anymore.


    "Is it a boy, is it a girl? What shall I do with my name?"


    "... I''m feeling fast, Dear Aqua"

 127 7. Stuffed Toys Incident

    In the morning, Aquasteed and I relaxed in our own room. Awesome, and after lunch we were to celebrate again only in close quarters such as family.


    Different sweets were arranged in front of Tiara Rose as special today, although from now on it''s not good to eat too much.


    Tart full of fruit, Madeleine or macaroon. In shoe cream, waffles. The recipes Tiara Rose was teaching the chef and the powers she would have arranged further from there.


    "Wow, they all look delicious......!


    "For Master Tiara Rose, the cooks made it sticky. Enjoy as much as you like today."


    "I''ll have to thank you later."


    When Tiara Rose got to her seat, Filine prepared me a fruit tea. The refreshing fragrance is more sweet.


    In the dining room are the leading actors, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. There are seven of them: Filine, Elliot, Schnaus, Irtiana and Darrell.


    "I''m so sorry. Congratulations, Tiara"


    "Congratulations, Tiara"


    "Thank you, Father, Mother"


    Irtiana smiles calmly at Schnaus, who is weeping with joy. And as Schnaus rang the bell on his desk, several servants came holding a stuffed animal.


    "... Huh?


    "Kids need toys, don''t they? You have so much fun choosing gifts for your lovely grandchildren!


    "Father..."


    I can''t get tired of repairing the mansion and it looks like I even went to buy a ton of stuffed animals at some point. The number is thus beyond the number of fingers in both hands.


    Too soon, no one could cling to Schnaus, who everyone on the spot thought but seemed happy with the smile.


    - So many stuffed animals, you can''t take them all home.


    Though the Tiara Rose is shattered, Schnaus is happy to feel it. It would be nice to take some back to Marine Forest and leave the rest at my parents'' house.


    Next, a tense faceted Darrell came to Tiara Rose.


    "Congratulations, Sister Tiara"


    "Thank you, Darrell. When you have kids, you can play with them."


    When Tiara Rose said so, Darrell snorted after blinking her eyes.


    Next, Filine and Elliot once again uttered words of celebration.


    "Congratulations, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Congratulations. This is from me and Filine."


    That being said, it was the box of squares that the two full smiles gave to Tiara Rose. Wrapped in lace and ribbon.


    "Thank you, both of you. What is it?"


    When Tiara Rose unwrapped her wrapping with Aquasteed, it was a prefix for the baby that came out of it.


    The colour is white and embroidered with grass flowers. They chose to look very good on the children of Tiara Rose, who are blessed by the fairies in the woods.


    - Guys, I''m feeling too fast.


    That''s what I think, zero tickle and grin.


    "Very cute. Let me use it first. Hey, Dear Aqua."


    "Right. This child, born blessed by all, must be happy."


    Once again I conveyed my thanks from Tiara Rose and Aquasteed and the tea party just for my relaxed body began.


    It''s a celebratory venue for Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, but Tiara Rose decided to sit next to Darrell and talk because she wants to get to know him better.


    "Darrell, this is a treat I teach the cook to make. I''d love it if you liked it..."


    That said, Tiara Rose offers Darrell the shoe cream.


    Fluffy shoe dough and plenty of cream. Definitely excellent, Tiara Rose would easily flatten with about five peppers.


    "Thank you, Sister Tiara. I''ve never seen this treat before."


    "What do you think...?


    I''m thrilled to see Darrell eat the pussy and see if she''ll like it. He said he likes sweets, but I don''t know if he''ll like them.


    I love all the sweets like Tiara Rose! It is uncommon for anyone to have a preference.


    Waiting for a thrill, I got a grin on Darrell''s face that didn''t really change his expression.


    "I like it, this... uh, shoe cream"


    "Really? Oh good! I''m so glad Darrell liked it."


    Tiara Rose, who caresses her chest with relief, splits that and this and the recommended sweets onto Darrell''s plate.


    Aquasteed, who sees it, takes "Tiara" and his hand. The look seemed to make me laugh somewhere.


    "No way, are you going to put it on all kinds of Darrell plates?


    "Huh? Ah... if I did!


    Haunted by Aquasteed''s call, Tiara Rose glances at a plate overserved with sweets.


    - What I did!


    I''m glad Darrell liked the shoe cream, and I''m stuck in shape.


    "I''m sorry, Darrell..."


    Darrell shakes his head as he sifts as Tiara Rose apologizes for the item dripping. He grinned as he did and took Tiara Rose''s plate in his hand.


    "Glad to hear it, Sister Tiara"


    "Darrell......!


    Tiara Rose giggles at Darrell. I''m impressed with how cute things were with my brother.


    "What a good boy, Darrell!


    "Wow."


    With joy, Tiara Rose hugs Darrell all the time. He''s a very sweet brother. I want my own children to grow up like this.


    "Dear Aqua, my brother is a very good boy!


    "Right. Tiara seems happy, so am I."


    Aquasteed also chuckles and smiles that he''s going to be a good playmate if a child is born.


    Aquasteed tells me it would be nice to go home again or invite Darrell, including my parents.


    "Oh yeah," said Schnaus, who watched as he deled into such interaction, seeing everyone.


    "It''s about this pregnancy, but I''ll publish it when Tiara''s feeling better. Publication in Lapis Lazuli would be better after publication in Marine Forest"


    "Oh, right. I think I''d like that, too."


    Pregnancy of the royal marquis nobility is often made public when you feel calm or after the birth of a child. Now I have no problem with it, but back in the day - in a time of successor strife and war, I hid it through until I was born to protect my children from assassinations, etc.


    There are remnants of them, and they won''t be made public soon.


    Seeing Aquasteed, who immediately endorsed him, Tiara Rose turns face to face with Irtiana. He''s laughing with a slightly troubled face, so I''m sure he''s thinking the same thing.


    - Can two people who are so floating be hidden?


    Instead, Schnaus has been buying tons of stuffed animals with a broom. In no time, I think rumors will spread.


    - Probably before the announcement...


    Nevertheless, that would also be one of the memories. When a child is born, I can also make a joke about this happening.


    Tiara Rose sips cold lemon water and looks up in her face with her hands.


    "Is it because we talked a lot? It''s a little hot."


    "Maybe there''s a slight fever again - it doesn''t look like there is."


    Aquasteed touched Tiara Rose''s forehead to easily gauge the heat. But it''s not otherwise hot, so I smile, presumably because I feel elevated.


    "But if you''re not feeling well, say it right away."


    "Yes."


    When I nodded and smiled, suddenly - something strange happened.


    "What!?"


    When I felt something move at the edge of my sight, I looked at it, and the stuffed animals that Schnaus gave me moved in unison.


    Bears, rabbits, cats, dogs, dragons... those stuffed animals twirl around like dancing, walking and running around their desks.


    The trick is so cute, I accidentally chase it with my eyes.


    The women have become captivated by stuffed animals, but the men have not. Aquasteed sees the doll as soon as something happens so he can protect Tiara Rose.


    "What the hell is going on!?"


    "What are the chances that Demon Props......?


    Ask Surprised Schnaus what kind of stuffed animal Aquasteed is. I thought it might be that kind of stuffed animal... apparently not.


    "No, it''s a stuffed animal I bought at a regular store. Doesn''t look harmful..."


    Schnauss reaches for his roughly crusty stuffed animal and hugs it up. Kuma then moved her hand to show it happily.


    "Well, cute......"


    Tiara Rose, who saw it, shrugs unexpectedly and is driven by the urge to try and hold a moving stuffed animal herself.


    I wish the stuffed animal could move and play with me...... I wonder if anyone has ever thought about that if it''s a girl.


    "Tiara, can''t you?


    "Wow, I know......!


    Aquasteed cautioned me first about whether the nogging had fallen off.


    "But you''re in trouble for not knowing what caused it"


    "I''m glad you''re cute, but you''re also scared..."


    I don''t know why, so you can''t accept it easily, says Filine. Philine sees Elliot as she really wants to touch it but smiles so bitterly.


    "What do you think of Elliot?


    "Right...... if it''s not a magic prop, isn''t someone magically moving it?


    "Magically?


    To Elliot''s words, everyone sees the stuffed animals dancing again. You may certainly be able to move it with magic, but that would surely be very advanced rather than simple magic.


    Is there someone who can make it that easy?


    - Yeah, but I''m glad it wasn''t haunted.


    And then I thought of only one person who could do this.


    I''m in this room, and I''m an amazing user of magic - yes, it''s Darrell.


    Maybe they did it to please us. If you think so and turn your gaze to Darrell. I was just looking at the stuffed animal in a strange way.


    "Apparently, Darrell didn''t do it..."


    "! You thought Master Aqua was Darrell too"


    "I can''t believe I can magically do this kind of artistry because I don''t. Maybe... and. Arms, of course, but even ideas and taste should be needed. I don''t think I can do it."


    Aquasteed seemed to think that Darrell might have an overwhelming healing magic talent, and a child''s idea of wanting to play with that stuffed animal.


    But like Tiara Rose, I saw how Darrell was doing and decided it wasn''t.


    - Then who the hell is it?


    Aquasteed said he couldn''t do it. Sometimes it''s the main offensive object of the sequel, and that''s not how magical users are more than aquasteeds.


    Possible human beings in this room are about an unknown number of Darrells.


    - Suppose I can think of something else...


    Acari, a heroine, and then Isira. Or is it someone who is similarly the target of the game?


    - But I''m not here...


    "Uh-huh... you don''t know"


    "Because there has to be something, should Tiara move the room first? Dealing with stuffed animals, because we''ll keep them"


    If anything happens, my belly child will be in danger too. That''s what I thought Tiara Rose nodded honestly and stood up for the move.


    "That''s better. I wish I knew the cause, but I can''t feel safe without knowing..."


    "Father, please be careful"


    "Oh, Tiara, rest easy."


    For one thing, Aquasteed escorts me to my room, so once I entrust this occasion to Schnaus.


    But when Tiara Rose walked out, the stuffed animals followed him by and behind.


    "Yeah eh!?"


    "The stuffed animal..."


    Aquasteed aggressively shelters Tiara Rose behind her back, but the stuffed animals don''t seem to make any other moves just following her.


    What do you mean, Darrell went near the stuffed animals. And as I can tell, I uttered the word.


    "Tiara, your sister''s going back to her room, so we''re done."


    When Darrell says so, the stuffed animals stop moving perfectly. I stopped moving and fell on the spot.


    Everyone but Darrell opens their eyes wide and sees the sight.


    "Darrell... was it you who was moving the stuffed animal?


    I just thought it was very different because I was surprised, but yes Tiara Rose tried to keep the words going, but shook her head, "No, it''s not true," she said.


    "It looks like the baby was magically moving it. I''m sure he was very happy with his stuffed animal."


    "What, the baby...?


    Tiara Rose looks at her own stomach and touches it with her hands. No way, I never thought the baby was doing it.


    "Really, this kid...?


    When Tiara Rose squeals like that, it''s like, ''Yes!'' Only the cat stuffed animal stood up and let him shake his long tail like he replied.


    "This is surprising..."


    "Well..."


    Schnaus and Irtiana were surprised, and Filine said, "That''s the child of Dear Tiara Rose!" I am impressed.


    Aquasteed lays his hands on Tiara Rose''s hand, which touches her stomach, smiling gently.


    "Apparently, our children have more magic than expected."

 128 8. Interact with Darrell

    At night, Tiara Rose thinks a lot as she slowly grabs onto the tub.


    First, about the baby in your stomach. I never thought I''d handle magic before I was born. And about Darrell, who easily spotted it.


    - For once, you might want to talk to Darrell properly.


    It''s not that I don''t believe in Darrell, but I want to know my brother properly. Besides, I might be able to hear something about children''s magic.


    "... invite Darrell to tea tomorrow!


    Though silent and not much emotional ups and downs for children, I''m sure you''ll find a lot of things out when you talk to them.


    "If that''s what you decide, talk to Filine now!


    The treats, too, Darrell prepared something he had never eaten... No, Tiara Rose nodded alone that she would like to make her own.


    "Tiara, are you ready for this?


    "Yes! Thank you for your help, Dear Aqua"


    To invite Darrell to a tea party, Tiara Rose was preparing herself in her room with Aquasteed.


    I''m done setting up the table, so all I have to do is wait for it to be time to start.


    "There''s still a little time to go, so why don''t Tiara sit down?"


    That''s what they say, Tiara Rose gets escorted to the couch by Aquasteed. Since the discovery of pregnancy, I''ve really become more worried than usual.


    "If that''s about it, you''ll be fine, right?


    "It''s... of course I know, but I''m not comfortable."


    Aquasteed also sits next to Tiara Rose and is sweetened "think it''s for me".


    "... Yes"


    "Thanks"


    The dust and aquasteed smiled, slowly putting his hand on his stomach. You look serious, so you''re probably thinking about your child''s magic.


    I''ve never heard of these precedents before, and there were no maiden games, no episodes like the one where a child was born after the ending.


    So utterly unknown -.


    "... Extremely, I hear stories of children with magic from within the womb"


    "Is that true? I''ve never heard of it..."


    "As I said, it''s a pretty rare case. The only reason the story doesn''t penetrate is because, after all, we tend to show up in powerful royalty"


    So the common people, of course, say that even the nobles rarely have that information out there.


    "I''ve just never heard of something from the inside out like this one, mostly the extent to which I can feel magic"


    "Enough magic to bring it outside...... I hope that''s not a burden for this kid..."


    "Right. If anything happens, I''ll do everything I can to protect you."


    So if you don''t have to look too anxious, Aquasteed can hold you gently.


    "There''s no other place you can feel so safe."


    Tiara Rose is also sweeter than rubbing on aqua steed. Then a kiss came down on his temples, touching his nose, cheeks and finally his lips as they were.


    "Cute, Tiara"


    "Ah, Dear Aqua..."


    Give me another kiss - the moment you think so, a knock sounds in the room with Concon Con. And at the same time, the voice "It''s Darrell".


    "Oh, it''s that time already...... too bad it''s time over. I''ll see you later..."


    That''s what I said. Aquasteed kisses Tiara Rose''s temples gently and gets up off the couch.


    "Dear Aqua, I..."


    "Sit down because it''s okay. That''s about all I can do, right?


    When I opened the door, the tense faceted Darrell was immovable upright. Then he bowed his head down and bowed with all the momentum.


    "Thank you for inviting me, Sister Tiara, Your Majesty Aquasteed"


    "There you are, Darrell"


    "I''m not that nervous, and you don''t have to call me that hard. Come on, come."


    Aquasteed gently touches Darrell''s back and prompts him to enter the room.


    "Oh, thank you. Uh... well, if it''s not your majesty, what can I call it?


    "Right...... I''m Tiara''s brother, so I don''t mind you calling me my brother."


    Of course, it can be named after you. When Aquasteed says so, Darrell lets his gaze get lost and thinks about what to do.


    "Brother......"


    "Oh, that''s fine"


    "Yes, thank you"


    Darrell is relieved to see Aquasteed nod.


    "They both look like real brothers"


    "Is that true? Sister Tiara. ¡­ I''m glad."


    Darrell, who was either nervous or faceless, but her fluffy expression softens.


    "Come on, let''s make it tea. Have a seat, Darrell."


    "Yes."


    "You don''t have to be nervous," Tiara Rose smiles when she sees Darrell sitting across from her.


    Make sure Aquasteed also sat next to him, making tea. Darrell is staring at Tiara Rose''s hand, and the hand he puts on his lap holds his fist firmly.


    - He seems so nervous.


    Tiara Rose opens her mouth in an attempt to shake the topic so Darrell can talk easily.


    "Today, I tried to prepare a shoe cream a little smaller than yesterday. I have two kinds of cream, yesterday''s and chocolate."


    Don''t hesitate to eat it, Tiara Rose decided to try it with a treat first.


    Darrell even blinks his eyes, "It looks delicious," he says. Keep reaching and including chocolate shoe cream in your mouth that wasn''t there yesterday.


    ¡­¡­ This is delicious... "


    "I''m glad you like it."


    Following the plain, Tiara Rose is happy that she also liked the chocolate.


    Seeing Darrell smiling, I wish he was this close from time to time.


    "Thank you, Sister Tiara"


    "You''re welcome, Darrell. Though I know you''re nervous...... can you make it easier for me?


    Although it is difficult to do so right away, I want you to smile more and talk a lot. When I honestly told her that, Darrell looked a little troubled.


    - Have I said too much?!?


    Tiara Rose panicked and shook her head, "I''m not saying I can''t do it," she said. I''m not going to force Darrell to do anything he doesn''t like.


    But Darrell shuts up and regrets that Tiara Rose should have done so after more interaction.


    I was happy that my brother was able to do it, and he told me that he had given himself healing and that the child was using magic.


    Aquasteed spoke to Darrell as he thought about how Tiara Rose would follow up.


    "I just met him, so I still can''t help but talk, but if you''d like to tell me about Darrell? Me and Tiara would love to get along better with Darrell."


    "Brother...... thank you. Uh, I... don''t know much about words, I''m studying. So I thought it might annoy both of us..."


    Darrell says there''s a lot he doesn''t know yet and the letters still can''t be read smoothly.


    "You were. Darrell, I don''t think that''s annoying. Let''s talk a lot, shall we? It''ll be Darrell''s study, and I''ll be glad to."


    "Right. If there''s a wrong word, I can tell you."


    "Oh, thanks! Glad."


    To the words of Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, Darrell gives us a year-to-year smile. Unlike before, I guess I could smile safely.


    "Hehe. Darrell is our brother. Hey, if you don''t like it... I want you to tell me how Darrell''s been spending it."


    "Ah... that''s..."


    Darrell''s expression, which was a smile, clouded, and Tiara Rose blamed herself for it. There''s no way we can teach Tiara Rose what Schnaus and Irtiana don''t know either, only a few days after we met.


    But seeing how Tiara Rose is like that, Darrell is in a hurry this time. Because of me, I put my sweet sister in trouble, he said.


    "It''s not, Sister Tiara! Um... I can''t help but remember my master."


    "Master...?


    "He taught me the magic of the healing system and raised me. I always called him my master..."


    For the first time, I was taught healing magic from Darrell''s mouth. And at the same time, Schnauz''s predictions had been met.


    As far as Darrell''s atmosphere is concerned, he appears to have a fondness for his master.


    - But now you''re our adopted son away from your master, aren''t you?


    Though there are many patterns of separation, I can''t even kind of imagine Darrell being so gentle being loving to his master.


    Possibly, he was paying his monthly allowance, but it became impossible. Did Darrell make a mistake and break the gate?


    - Darrell can use such amazing healing magic.


    I just wondered why we can''t be together, and Tiara Rose''s thought reaches one possibility.


    I rush to try to change the subject, but it''s too late.


    "The master was gone from the world the day it rained. And then I was alone... and when I was worried that I didn''t know what to do, I met my fathers."


    "I''m sorry, Darrell. I remind you that it''s hard for you. I miss you so much that my master who raised me is dead."


    "Your sister is sweet," Darrell surprised when Tiara Rose was about to cry now.


    "But... well, you say this emotion is'' lonely ''"


    Until now, Darrell didn''t know the words to describe that emotion. What my master didn''t tell me, Darrell doesn''t know.


    So Darrell''s mouth count was as low as his silent master''s, and he often knows nothing but magic because he lived in a narrow world.


    Aquasteed is surprised, too, to say a word of comfort.


    "Thanks for talking to me, Darrell. If it''s hard again, don''t hesitate to tell me."


    "Yes, Master Aqua is right. If you miss me, join me in a lot of chatting. Your mother would like to talk to Darrell more."


    "Sister, brother...... thank you. I feel a little less lonely."


    Having said that, Darrell told me a little bit about herself and her master''s memories.


    "I''ve been living in the woods with my master for a long time. I''ve been to the city a few times a year, and that''s about it. So I was surprised the first time I ate a treat"


    When it came to the sweet stuff Darrell knew, was it about honey picked in the woods, or was it nuts when it came to purely stand-alone and sweet?


    There were no toys, and every day was a magical day.


    So Darrell laughed bitterly that it was normal that there was nothing but magic and he was still unfamiliar with the current environment.


    "But I want to get used to it quickly for my father and mother who will be nice to me. I don''t like being alone..."


    "Darrell......"


    Darrell was studying desperately, taking care not to be hated. I found it after I left my master, lest I lose this precious place.


    Easy, but finished listening to Darrell, Tiara Rose can''t stop herself from overflowing with tears. ''Cause I can''t believe such a young child had such a hard experience.


    Even though it was hard to just talk about his death, he cherishes this place and does his best not to want to lose it.


    "Darrell, I''ll protect you no matter what!


    "Me too, Tiara, I will protect you from your sister! I''m not good at anything but healing magic..."


    So if anything happens, Darrell motivates me to rely on Tiara Rose. That''s cute, Tiara Rose said, "My brother is so healthy!" and I want to protect you even more.


    "Then I have to protect you both."


    "If you have Aqua, you have nothing to be afraid of."


    "Yes!"


    When Tiara Rose and Aquasteed smiled, Darrell replied cheerfully, laughing happily.

 129 9. Running Magic

    "Mm-hmm...?


    Tiara Rose finds herself breathless and wakes up.


    I drank hot milk last night and should have gone straight to bed. I''ve slept well, and I''ve never been ill.


    "Ha..."


    Weren''t you tired of traveling? I woke up lightly thinking so - breathtaking.


    "Hey, what... WHAT!?"


    "Hmm... tiara?


    As soon as Tiara Rose raises her voice, Aquasteed wakes up. And check the surrounding conditions and shelter Tiara Rose on her back.


    "Is this... magic?


    Fluffy - and the bed where Tiara Rose and Aquasteed slept was floating in space. At the same time, the stuffed animals that were kept in the bedroom, side tables, books and vases, etc. are at the same height.


    I can shake it slowly like a cradle and feel safe somewhere. I feel like that, but Tiara Rose''s breathlessness just never gets better - it''s getting worse - yes, I feel it.


    Watching Tiara Rose, whose breathing is likely to be painful, Aquasteed hugs her right up. I''m having this strange phenomenon because I realized it must be a baby in the womb.


    Jumping out of bed, Aquasteed raises her voice as she screams.


    "Elliot, Philine! Arrange for a doctor immediately! And then, I''m sorry to wake Darrell in the middle of the night."


    The first person to rush was Elliot. With my jacket woven, my hair hasn''t even been done. From being out of breath, I guess I chose to come first.


    "Dear Aquasteed, what the hell - Dear Tiara Rose!?"


    Until earlier it was Tiara Rose who kept the consciousness of the painful things, but now she is relaxed in Aquasteed''s arms.


    "Elliot will wake Darrell up soon. See a doctor too, but he might be better suited to specialize in healing magic"


    "Okay, right away!


    By mistake, Philine arrived with the cardigan feather-woven hair gently together.


    "Dear Tiara Rose!? What the hell happened, Sire Aquasteed! Doctors are¡­¡­!?"


    "Not yet. I''m having Elliot go get Darrell right now. Filine arranges for a doctor to let the Marquises know as soon as she''s done."


    "Immediately!


    Aquasteed breathes as he rushes to see Filine leave. First you have to put Tiara Rose to bed, but the bed and accessories remain floating.


    Nevertheless, my body gets tired when I put him to sleep on the couch.


    If this state of affairs seems to persist, we just have to have another room available.


    "Ha, ha... eh"


    "Tiara......"


    Gently stroke Tiara Rose''s forehead, which seems to twitch and sweat and gently drop her lips.


    - Hot, huh?


    I think I have a lot of fever. I was sleeping next door, but I''m sorry I didn''t notice.


    I regret that I can''t do anything for Tiara Rose. And I can''t believe it didn''t help, even though it''s about my own children.


    The butterflies and footsteps approach and the doors open with momentum. It was Darrell, who was out of breath, who jumped in and saw Tiara Rose with her big eyes.


    "Dear Sister Tiara......!


    "I''m sorry I''m in bed, Darrell. Perhaps the magic of a child in his stomach is affecting him. You shouldn''t if I do something and it has a negative impact...... I''m sorry, can I see you?


    Kneeling to be in the same sight as Darrell, tell him that Tiara Rose suddenly seemed to suffer and that what was around him floated.


    Darrell nodded small and placed his hand on the belly part of Tiara Rose.


    "I can''t solve this fundamentally, Tiara, but I think I can temporarily calm your sister down."


    That said, Darrell used healing magic. Then, as he looked around, Tiara Rose''s breathing calmed down and he rested calmly.


    Apparently, the bitterness has been relieved.


    Aquasteed puts his hand on his forehead to see if he has any heat, but compared to earlier, the heat was pulling off.


    "... thanks, Darrell. Thanks."


    "No, Tiara, I don''t want your sister to suffer either..."


    Looking into the bedroom, everything that was floating is back in position. I caressed my chest down about it and put Tiara Rose to bed.


    And you predicted the timing, a louder footstep sounded earlier.


    "Tiara, Tiara!"


    "Sir, if you get too loud, Master Tiara Rose..."


    As Aquasteed expected, it was Schnaus who came. Filine came back, too, as she chased it.


    "Because Darrell used healing magic, Tiara has settled down already. Now that I''m asleep, be quiet..."


    "Good... Darrell, that''s my son!


    "Yes."


    When Schnaus stroked Darrell''s head and praised him, Darrell happily loosened his cheek as well.


    "Oh good...... If Tiara Rose is safe, Darrell should rest."


    "Right. Darrell, go back to your room now. See you tomorrow at the breakfast table."


    "Yes. Good night"


    When Filine left the room with Darrell, who I said I would send him, Elliot came back because he misplaced him.


    "Your doctor will be arriving soon"


    "Oh, okay"


    Then immediately the doctor saw Tiara Rose, but the only physical thing was the diagnosis that there was just fatigue.


    When magic comes into play, it''s not very useful in general medicine. You may be able to restore your depleting health, but that would also be insignificant.


    Aquasteed had to think of something and saw Tiara Rose sleeping.


    The next day, Tiara Rose woke up as usual.


    "Tiara, how are you feeling?


    "We apologize for the inconvenience at night. I don''t think it''s a problem anymore."


    "There''s nothing annoying about that."


    Aquasteed relieves Tiara Rose that she is well. But I don''t know when I will be in the same situation again, so I ask you to slow down for a while.


    "Philine will be here soon, so make sure you stay with me while I''m gone"


    "Okay. You''re a little slow."


    "Because I''m going to talk to the Marquis. When that''s over, we''ll have sweets together."


    Aquasteed smiles, stroking Tiara Rose''s head pounding as she lay down in bed. Keep your mouth shut on your pink lips, "I''m making you a good girl," he said.


    "I can be a good adult now, can''t I?


    "Tiara has too many priors.... Looks like Philine''s here. I''ll see you later."


    "Yes."


    I touched my lips only once more to spare the remnants and left the room.


    "Aquasteed, Your Grace!


    When I went to the reception room, Schnaus was already waiting.


    From now on, we''re supposed to discuss Tiara Rose. The same is true of the current situation, but the situation could be worse if improvements are not seen in the future.


    Aquasteed sits on the couch and first tells the cause of this one.


    "... children''s magic is too great"


    "I know that, too. It''s good for an excellent amount of magic, but I''m afraid you don''t know how that affects Tiara."


    "Yes."


    Aquasteed hastily puts the compiled material on the table in the middle of the night to show Schnaus.


    "I looked it up from one end, but I don''t have enough time... this is all I''ve got"


    "Is this a real example of a child with magic!?"


    It''s basically unpublished data, but last night, I used Elliot''s contact magic to interact with Marine Forest. Nevertheless, the source of that information would know everything about the information, not the material from the old days, etc. - Crail.


    "There is no record that the magic of children is so great."


    "... sounds like it"


    Schnaus nods at Aquasteed''s words as he glances at the material. And I get a breath of admiration that "I often get this much material in this short time..."


    "Not yet, Tiara will be fine"


    "... now, what? So you''re saying there''s something ahead?


    Tingling and Schnauz''s eyebrows move and his expression hardens. But even Aquasteed is with me.


    I swore to protect Tiara Rose no matter what, so I''m going to use any means to help.


    "Something called magic, it grows. If you''re a child, I''m sure that stretch is huge."


    "Hmm... that''s right"


    "Now move a stuffed animal or float something. There are probably feelings, like children playing, and the view that that thing in the middle of the night -- it''s probably like crying at night."


    In other words, the current situation is not that problematic because the child in the stomach controls magic and uses magic. No, it''s not a big problem just because Tiara Rose is suffering, but there should be tougher situations coming up.


    "If magic keeps growing - if a child can no longer control magic"


    "Well, wouldn''t it be hard if that happened!


    "That''s right. So I want to find a way to help Tiara."


    Allow a child in your stomach to control their magic, or find something completely different.


    There''s not much time...

 130 10. Acari Again

    A few days after Tiara Rose began to suffer from child magic, the acari came again. To talk about Tiara Rose in order to get to know Schnaus better.


    Of course, he is also a greedy kid who wants tea with Tiara Rose and Aquasteed.


    "Huh!? A child!? Yikes! Congratulations Dear Tiara ~!!"


    Acari said, "Yay!" and spread your hands to show joy.


    "We need to prepare a celebration for this! Dear Tiara, would you like some sweets after all?


    "Dear Acari... thank you"


    "No. You''ll bring it next time!... but is it an evil obstacle? I don''t seem to be feeling well."


    I look at Tiara Rose sitting on the couch looking tired and the acari leans her neck worried.


    "Do you want to rest in bed?


    "No. I mean, evil resistance... it''s like the magic of a child is too great for me."


    "What!? That''s Tiara and Aqua''s child! Aren''t you the strongest before you were born!!"


    That''s the main target of the sequel and the villain''s warrant! That''s what clams shake. As for this one, it''s more serious, but I kind of feel comfortable that she might be okay with it.


    He was shaken and satisfied. Akali sat on the couch and said, "So what? Continue talking."


    "Do you know gender or something like that?


    "I''m still ahead of you. Because I found out I was pregnant the other day.... or can I make a gender determination in this world?


    "Oh, sure. It''s obvious that it''s Japanese medicine... but we haven''t developed any medical equipment at all."


    My doctor also tells me that I don''t know my gender until I''m born. Given that he is an Aquasteed child, I still would prefer a prince...... Tiara Rose thinks she doesn''t mind either if she is born well, and Aquasteed would feel the same way.


    "But if I were Tiara''s child... the girl would be so cute, and what a handsome boy she would be...! I can''t even stop thinking about it. I''ll see you as soon as I''m born!!"


    Akali can''t seem to help but look forward to it now, and his face is burning.


    I''m very happy with that, and if Akali had a baby, I hope the kids would get along with each other.


    And then, I recall, Acari came to have an interaction with Schnaus.


    Reports of Tiara Rose''s pregnancy had the topic inadvertently gone somewhere.


    - Your father is talking to Master Aqua now, isn''t he?


    I haven''t heard what you''re talking about, but it would definitely be about children. I can''t let you two get in the way, so I''ll have you give up your visit today.


    "Dear Acari, Father and Aqua are busy... it may be difficult to see you for a while"


    "Really?... Well, you''re both busy."


    I''m here because of you, and the clams swell my cheeks.


    "Excuse me.... we''re both desperate to do some research for our kids"


    "Huh?"


    "There''s too much magic, too much burden on me. It''s painful, it''s hard to stay conscious..."


    "Yeah yeah!? Isn''t that important!!"


    The strongest children are the best! What a thought. He wants to beat himself to death, and Akali squeezes his bush.


    "I wasn''t sure when I was playing the game, because I moved into this world and started using magic... I know the dangers of magic very well. I can''t believe a baby who hasn''t been born yet controls magic..."


    Now might be a good time, but Akali says it should be getting harder and harder from now on.


    "But Master Aqua''s looking for a way to fix it, isn''t he? Good......"


    If the magic continues to explode, I don''t even want to think about what happens to the mother Tiara Rose.


    "You can''t do this! I''m also going to storm the Saving Dear Tiara Party!


    "Dear Acari!?"


    Akali, who soaked up from the couch, "It''s okay, I''ll take care of it!!" and left the room.


    In the reception room, Aquasteed continued yesterday with a story about Schnaus and magic. But at the same time, the place of birth has become a problem.


    "If you''re a nobleman, you won''t have a problem giving birth back home, but Tiara is already royal of Marine Forest. Given that, it would be nice to have the environment ready in Marine Forest -"


    But as for Schnaus, I can''t help but worry that it will be dangerous to do so. What if the magic swells up on the road to Marine Forest?


    Even Marine Forest would have excellent healing magic users. But I don''t know if that person can see how 100 percent Tiara Rose is doing.


    Then I thought maybe I should stay at my parents'' house where Darrell is also there and give birth.


    Of course, Aquasteed thinks of that as one option.


    But then only Aquasteed returns to Marine Forest, and Tiara Rose will have days she won''t see for a while.


    Even the king''s aquasteed throws out his job because the queen rehabilitates him, and the country stops turning.


    - I want to protect Tiara with my hands.


    So somehow, I''m jumping to find a way to hold back my child''s magic. But so far, there''s not a good way.


    I gather excellent healing magic users in Marine Forest, but it''s also hard to say that it can be solved.


    Aquasteed sees Schnaus as he still can''t think together.


    "It doesn''t mean you don''t make the best choice for Tiara, just because she''s royal. Because if it''s the best way for Tiara, I''ll push it through."


    "That''s... that''s comforting"


    "It''s best that Tiara be safe."


    So, as I tried to continue, the door to the room banged open with momentum. When Aquasteed and Schnaus looked at the door, what was there was a royal acari.


    "... what are you doing, Miss Acari"


    The first thing you returned to me was Aquasteed, which is just bad manners, isn''t it? and turn a cold gaze.


    But I''m not an acari frightened by that.


    "You say Master Tiara is a pinch! My best friend, I thought I had to get him into an ops meeting, too, so I ran."


    Akali walks all the way into the room and stops on his feet perfectly.


    Aquasteed and Schnaus sit on each couch opposite each other. I guess you thought you couldn''t just sit on either of them...... I brought a chair provided for my desk, put it in your birthday position and took a seat.


    "Come on! Think of an operation to do something about your baby''s magic!


    We don''t have time! And the acari saw this one.


    Aquasteed isn''t a problem, but Schnaus isn''t comfortable with Akali yet. Would you accept, though for Tiara Rose?


    Such a concern passes behind Aquasteed''s brain.


    Schnaus nodded at Acari''s words, even looking like he had bitten the bitter bug to death.


    "I''d just like to dismiss it if it''s true, but the most important thing right now is the future of Tiara and the child, not my feelings"


    "That''s right, now it''s about Dear Tiara that matters the most! Father, definitely help Tiara and the baby!


    "Ah, oh......"


    Schnaus agreed with Acari, even as he was pushed slightly by Acari''s temper. Because the future is more important now than before.


    - That''s Tiara''s father.


    To be honest, Aquasteed thinks it''s very big to be able to use the help of Akali. She is a user of ''Holy Prayer'' and I have heard from Tiara Rose that she was playing this game.


    Maybe you know some good way.


    First, Aquasteed explains what happened these past few days.


    "I see, control of magic...... But can you do that even though you may not be yourself yet?


    "... I don''t know. But if you don''t get it under control, Tiara''s just gonna be in danger."


    "It''s..."


    Even an acari drops his shoulder wondering if he knows how to let an unborn child control his magic.


    "Uh-oh, no, you definitely help Dear Tiara and the baby! There has to be some way!!"


    It''s a maiden game, so we have to be happy endings! I''d say so, but Tiara Rose is a villain''s warrant.


    "I can''t believe I''m dead because I''m a villain''s warrant, because I don''t allow heroines like that."


    Seeing a burning acari to help Tiara Rose, Aquasteed and Schnaus are in the mood that they definitely have to help too.


    Schnaus also puts his hand on his chin, raising the way he can come up with what to do.


    "Take steps to keep the magic under control, so it doesn''t get more magic? But there''s no precedent for that, so it''s going to be hard..."


    "If that''s the case, I wish I could suck the magic out of you..."


    "- That''s it!


    To the words Aquasteed said, the acari looked up all the time and said, "It''s nice!," he says.


    "Is that what Lady Acari says when she says it''s good to suck away magic?


    "That''s right. As your father would say, it may be a hand to say that it does not increase magic... but then it is pathetic that it is going to hold back the growth of children''s power"


    If that''s what you think, Akali agrees with Aquasteed that while you increase your magic, you just have to suck it off.


    But both Aquasteed and Schnaus, while reasoning suggests they should suck away magic, have no idea how to do it.


    "Miss Acari, is there any good way?


    "Yes! I have equipment items to suck the magic out of, so you just have to make them!

 131 11. Flower birds at night

    Akali makes his nose rough and tense.


    "All you need is an ''attack ring'' or a ''protection ring''!


    "That''s the first ring I''ve ever heard..."


    Asking for an explanation of what Aquasteed was like, Schnaus also ate, "Does Tiara and the child help!?".


    "It''s a little hard to collect ingredients, though. Well, still, if it hits me, it''s a little bit! You must have been on a big ship!


    Ring of attack, ring of protection, this is equipment that can both be made by collecting materials. It was useful from the beginning to the middle, but not many players equipped because it was less effective in the final phase.


    As the name suggests, the attack ring uses the magic of the user to attack. The Ring of Guardianship stretches an easy line. What you need to activate the power of the ring is the magic of the equipper.


    "This ring doesn''t just suck away magic when you use it, it sucks away magic all the time during four or six. It''s a tiny amount from me, but I think it would be enough if it were the magic of Dear Tiara and the baby!


    If you look from the acari of heroines who use holy prayer, it doesn''t make any difference to be a little sucked with a ton of magic equipment.


    But Tiara Rose sometimes has little original magic power, and Akali thinks it''s hard to put it on at four or six o''clock under normal conditions. But if that''s where the magic of the child is added, it''s not the story.


    "Not only does it absorb the magic that''s going to run wild, but it also protects you about Master Tiara! Isn''t that the best ring ever!


    When Akali forcefully preaches the guardian ring, he says, "Great!," Schnaus applauds.


    "Create it now! If you have the materials you need, I''ll arrange it!!"


    "Please calm down, Father! We don''t sell ingredients, so we have to get them ourselves!


    "Huh! Speaking of which, that''s what you said..."


    Schnaus, who was getting himself off the couch with excitement, coughs up and sits back on the couch.


    Aquasteed looks at the acari as he envisions it, while wondering how strong Tiara Rose will be.


    - Because of Darrell''s healing power, I''m not that impatient.


    That''s not why it''s okay to be slow. If you think about the burden of Tiara Rose, as soon as possible, and if you can, now - I want to move to get that material.


    "Miss Acari, I need more information on that material"


    "Dear Aqua! Yes, of course! Birds that only show up at night - flower birds at night. An attack ring can be made from the wings of a bird to create a protective ring from its tail feathers."


    "From bird feathers? Don''t ask me the first time..."


    "I''ve never seen them sold at a grocery store."


    Akali says it''s an item we can''t get unless we make it ourselves.


    "Flower birds at night are special birds. Wings are petals, tail feathers are plant birds made of leaves. It''s so rare, it''s not that easy to encounter a bird!


    That''s why I need to go to the woods every night with guts.


    Nevertheless, Akali believes that if we just encounter it, we won''t have a problem overnight. If you find a flower bird for the night, it''s already here.


    The hard part in the game days was that even if you knocked down the flower birds at night, you didn''t have a hundred percent chance of dropping the material.


    The scarce value is high, and the drop rate would have been five percent?


    Given that, the real world of victory is an easy victory if you find and defeat it.


    "I see, at night..."


    If that''s the case, Aquasteed thinks we just need to get ready to leave and go to sleep. I''m not going to relax, so I''m willing to make my decision tonight.


    "I will be looking for flower birds for the night from tonight. Meanwhile, I''d like to ask you about Tiara."


    "Yeah, of course. For Tiara, thank you very much."


    Schnaus nods at Aquasteed''s words and bows his head.


    "Besides, Darrell... worried if Tiara gets bitter again, he''s taking a little nap time during the day. Tiara is loved and happy by all."


    Loosen his cheeks, Schnaus told him, "I''ll take care of the mansion".


    As Tiara Rose groans on the couch, she realizes the feeling of being gently caressed by her hair. Oh, it''s Aquasteed, so quickly it raises my mind.


    "... Dear Aqua"


    "Oh, I''m sorry, you woke me up. But if you want to rest, let''s go to bed."


    I was fluffed up and moved right to my bedroom. Aquasteed, sitting at the foot of the bed, had a gentle grin, and Tiara Rose smiled at it.


    - The sun is already setting.


    Outside the window it was dark and I laughed bitterly as if I was going to nap but fell asleep.


    And then I realize that Aquasteed''s outfit is different than usual.


    "Dear Aqua, are you going somewhere?


    Clothed closer to the knight than usual, he also lowers his love sword on his hips. All I''m saying is I''m going to fight now, and I''m confused.


    "It''s okay," Aquasteed grins bitterly, stroking Tiara Rose''s head.


    "I found a way to do something about Tiara''s and the child''s magic."


    "Huh!? How the hell... and yes, Master Akali was"


    I remember leaving Tiara Rose to join the discussion to resolve myself.


    Maybe the acari did something outrageous!? and such an idea crosses the back of my brain.


    Aquasteed chuckles when she sees the confused Tiara Rose.


    "You don''t have to worry so much. It''s Miss Acari''s suggestion, but I''m going to go find a flower bird for the night now."


    "Is that - Oh, is that an attack ring and a defense ring?


    "I knew you knew Tiara too"


    I just have to look at the nodding aquasteed and convince myself that it is definitely the perfect item to have Tiara Rose as well.


    "That would absorb my magic, so I think the magic flowing from the baby would absorb it with me. That''s right, Dear Akali, you''ve noticed so well..."


    Tiara Rose sighs when she wouldn''t have noticed by herself.


    "It can be hard to get the material..."


    "Who do you think I am? I''ll get it and come back soon."


    "... Yes. Thank you, Master Aqua. Because I''ll be waiting for you and this girl. Please come back soon."


    "Of course."


    Tiara Rose slowly closes her eyes as she sees Aquasteed''s face approaching. The lips touch as they are, and the rip sounds.


    I''m kind of ashamed of the sound of it, and I hide half my face with the quilt kettle I was putting on my body.


    Tiara Rose''s reaction was as cute as ever, and Aquasteed chuckled thinking so, saying this had to come back in a hurry.


    "Come on, it''s our time from here!


    Acari, who had finished her duties, spanned the horses and waited for Aquasteed and Elliot in front of the mansion.


    Aquasteed shook his head when he could not accompany the clams to the woods with just no escort.


    "Miss Acari will be waiting in the mansion with Tiara."


    "I don''t like it. This is so much fun... I can''t stand still to take care of Dear Tiara!


    Aquasteed and Elliot sigh when this follows whatever they say to Akali, who answers with a hunched chest.


    "Elliot, contact Prince Haltnites immediately."


    "Yes, sir."


    It''s Aquasteed''s decision that Halt Knights should be with him.


    "Is Master Haltnights coming too?!?" said Akari, happily sparkling his eyes. I was just a little anxious to see if Elliot would be okay with such an acari.


    A while later came Haltnights, who rode the horse and let him cut his breath.


    "Ha, ha, ha... sorry. Acari, another unsolicited thing...!!"


    "You''re not on your own at all! Because this is also to help Master Tiara!


    "Tiara...?


    Aquasteed explains to Halt Nights, who has no idea what''s going on. And now we''re going to the woods to get the ingredients for the ring.


    Halt Knights suddenly bewildered, "Isn''t that tough! scream."


    "No, wait... in this case should I say congratulations first? No, if you just need to get the flowerbird material for the night, you better head to the woods as soon as possible."


    "... thanks. I''m not going to make it public yet, so please do. It would be helpful if you could work with me on this one."


    "Oh."


    Acari, who confirmed that Aquasteed and Halt Knights had finished talking, spoke out loudly, "Shh shh shh shh!" and ran the horse.


    Forests on the outskirts of the capital of Lapis Lazuli rarely enter after night due to the presence of nocturnal dangerous animals.


    There''s also that, and few people will know about the existence of flower birds at night. Maybe I rarely even see that in this world because Halt Knights didn''t know.


    It is said that the beautiful voice that rings at night confuses people and does not make them aware of their existence.


    How many people in the world remember the crystal-clear ringing sound of a puree?


    Upon reaching the forest entrance, the Aquasteeds set foot in the woods with the horse''s reins across the tree branches.


    "Puy."


    "Acari, what a sudden"


    "Oh, this is the noise of the flower birds at night! Puy, it sounds like a puy. Isn''t she cute?"


    Acari seemed to think that maybe if he rings a bell, he might show himself.


    "You sound funny."


    Elliot looks around in the woods with interest. Look at the ground and gaze right over the tree. But unfortunately, I don''t see a single bird.


    When this looks pretty tough, everyone pulls their minds together.


    "My rule of thumb is, it comes out in the back! So let''s keep going ~!"


    Magically prepare the lights, and the acari walk out of the lead. It is Elliot, who also serves as an escort, who hastily stops it.


    "Because I walk in front of you!!"


    "It''s okay, because I''m still strong on this!


    To the acari who let them grip the cobwebs for a long time, "That''s not the problem!" Elliot gives a voice.


    "Acari, listen to me. It''s not too late for anything, is it?


    "Yes."


    Acari nodded at Haltnites'' words, and the four began to move through the woods.


    "Flower birds at night are about the size of one hand and they''re so cute. The colors of the flowers are different, so it''s a pleasure to encounter."


    Orange, pink, white, water...... and the clams give a lot of flower colors. I wonder what color night flower birds I''ll see today, and now I''m going to groan.


    Even though Aquasteed wonders if there really is a strange bird made up of such plants, he convinces me that it''s not strange to have a plant bird because there are fairies and spirits.


    After walking for about an hour, Elliot, who was leading the way, stopped to "That''s..." When we looked forward so that we could all make no noise, there was a small river, where there were birds drinking water.


    Still soft shades of tail feathers on wings made of white petals that can''t even beat the darkness of the night. Definitely the flower bird of the night I was looking for.


    "Puy."


    Clear voices take my ears off unexpectedly.


    Oh, I''m not allowed to touch such a beautiful creature - my body is tied to such an idea. This is why people can''t find flower birds at night.


    Relentlessly feed Elliot and Haltnights, who try to flirt back, the thunder that has reduced the power of the acari saying, "No!"


    The moment they shook their bodies freaking out and opened their eyes wide.


    "Ugh, uhh... paralyzed..."


    "Suddenly, what are you doing... Akali..."


    Acari turns a grin and grin at Elliot and Haltnights, who nod to the ground and endure paralysis.


    "You can''t, if the flower birds at night confuse you. We are a team to help Master Tiara!


    "Ha! Speaking of which, my legs were definitely about to go home..."


    "I can''t believe I was so naturally guided... sorry. Thanks, Acari."


    Elliot drips when it could have been a big deal without the acari.


    "You will. You will. You can praise me more!


    "Here, you''re too well, Akali."


    When Haltnights tells him to flaunt, Akali laughs out her tongue and says, "Go ahead."


    Okay, let''s get back on our minds and go! At that point, a clear voice called ''Puilly'' was heard from right around the corner.


    When I saw it, the flower birds of the night were flying just above the Aquasteeds.


    "What a fantastic sight..."


    That''s what Aquasteed said, stretching his left hand to the sky half unconsciously.


    Then what do you think? The flower bird of the night rang to stay in Aquasteed''s hands and sing ''Puilly'' again.


    And the thing that surprised me the most was the acari.


    "Lying, I can''t believe I miss the flower birds of the night! But I think Aqua can do that too, so wow......!!"


    "Uh... don''t you have to knock this down to get petals and leaves?


    "Oh, right"


    Stroke the petals and leaf areas by holding down the flower bird the night Aquasteed stayed in his arms. Then, he easily fell out of the flower birds of the night.


    "Surprised, I didn''t put any effort into it"


    "Is it bird defense instinct? Wouldn''t it be more important to cut off the material and run away?"


    "I think so."


    "You want to do a lot of research," Elliot says, looking seriously at the flower birds at night.


    "Can I take you home like this?


    "That would be... the jurisdiction of Prince Haltnites. That''s just how I feel..."


    "Right."


    Aquasteed and Elliot looked at Halt Knights, but the grass behind it made a loud gusty noise and swayed.


    "- Huh!?"


    "Everybody back off!!"


    As Elliot moved forward to shelter everyone at once, a flower bird popped out of the trees at night over a meter long.


    "Parent!?"


    When Elliot roughs up her voice, Akali screams behind her.


    "Liar, you didn''t have a parent -!? Doesn''t it look so strong!!"

 132 12. Childrens Magic and Defense Rings

    I can''t believe this is happening. Aquasteed will calculate what to do in his brain.


    In the first place, there was no recognition that the flower bird of the night was a chick. Adult birds have an unimpeded appearance, but no wonder because they are not ordinary birds.


    "It''s going to be... hard for you to miss"


    The chick nostalgic for herself, so she had the hope that maybe, but she''s not going to be so good. On the contrary, I am on guard against this one.


    - Is it obvious?


    If I had had a child with Tiara Rose, I''m sure I would have the same reaction as this parent bird.


    "I''ll be out front, Master Aquasteed, behind you! If possible, stay out of the woods!


    Elliot sets up his sword and screams, taking a step forward in the form of shelter for Aquasteed, Akali and Haltonites.


    Akali argues with that.


    "It''s such a danger to stand alone! You should cooperate here, defeat your parents, or have them run back!


    "No, no, no, you can''t just risk the acaris!


    When Elliot roughed up his voice and refused, Halt Knights also said, "That''s right!" and take the clam arms.


    "What if I get hurt! You get out of here now!


    "Dear Halt Knights... how sweet of you to worry about me..."


    "Acari......"


    Halt Knights sighs at Akali, who never forgets the occasions in this situation.


    "But it''s okay, Master Halt Knights! I''m pretty strong when I look like this!


    "Wouldn''t that be the problem!?"


    "What? But I think you''re strong for the next time, Master Aqua, right? I can''t use my sword, so it''s just magic..."


    That''s what I said. Acari makes a bee sound and thunder out of his own hands to show it. It''s not something weak earlier, it''s something powerful.


    If you do point that at them, you won''t just be sorry.


    Halt Knights looks blue, but Aquasteed decides he didn''t see it.


    It''s probably no use telling a free-range acari to go home first.


    "Dear Aqua, I can fight too, right? Isn''t it hard for Elliot to stand up to that parent bird alone!


    "... ok. But you can''t go forward. Miss Acari uses magic, so leave the avant-garde to us. Prince Haltnites, on Miss Acari''s side. If anything happens, take care of it."


    No matter what we''re discussing here as it is, the parent bird can''t wait. Then it''s the decision that it''s best for all of us to deal with each other.


    Aquasteed lays down his sword and sees his parent bird.


    - If you can, I want to avoid the fight.


    "Puy."


    The flower bird of the night that was stuck in Aquasteed''s arms rings and sees his parents. But ''Puy'' just rang in a low voice, and there''s no change in the intimidation directed at us.


    The parent bird spreads its wings wide and rings again to fly flower feathers toward the Aquasteeds. Aquasteed knocks it off with his sword, kicks it on the ground and puts a knife in his parent bird - but is pushed back by a winged gust.


    "Dear Aquasteed, please step back!


    Now Elliot waves up his sword and puts a blow in the parent bird. It was decided beautifully because they were the ones who had a gap from behind Aquasteed.


    A parent bird who rang in a low voice flew loud into the sky and descended sharply this way. Apparently, he''s landing off his feet and trying to make a crushing attack.


    Then, from behind Aquasteed, he said, "Heh heh!" and Akali gets a laugh.


    "Now that''s my show! I don''t have any parents for night flower birds... because I''ve knocked them out many times in the game. With a thunderbolt - Dangerous!!"


    "Puilly"


    The moment the acari tried to unleash thunder magic, the flower bird of the night broke in between the acari and the parent bird.


    Think thunder will hit the flower birds of the night as it is, and somehow modify the trail of stomping magic in a wild way.


    "... ku, change direction!!"


    "Acari!"


    Halt Knights supports the clams that nearly collapsed in the recoil of the control of the force from behind, relieving me that I was glad they were safe.


    The magic of thunder, misaligned by the clams, had knocked down a few large trees, and if it had struck the parent bird directly, it would have been out of breath in an instant.


    "... Miss Acari doesn''t know the word" hands-down "?


    "As it were, well, it looks like the parent bird escaped with the shock now... let''s just say"


    "The chicks are gone."


    The chicks of the night are gone, and only a few trees that have been knocked down remain.


    "Ha! I''m surprised! But I''m glad no one''s hurt and the flower birds at night have escaped. We''ve got the materials, and let''s just make a ring."


    The Aquasteeds were tired of the brightness of the clams as if there had been no major disturbance.


    The work of the Aquasteeds began making rings that solved the baby''s magic problems.


    The creation is made in the royal castle of Lapis Lazuli, in the presence of Acari and Haltonites. Because the proponent is acari and the ingredients can be harvested from precious birds that live in lapis lazuli.


    Tiara Rose, with Aquasteed, climbed the castle with Philine, Elliot. What has been provided is a guest room, where we already have a set of materials and the materials we need.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, are you feeling okay?


    Filine prepares herbal tea for everyone and cares about Tiara Rose''s health. I have Darrell cure magic to calm me down, but the magic of children is increasing every day, so I can''t wipe the bitterness completely.


    Tiara Rose smiles to reassure Filine, nodding that she''s okay.


    "I am a tour of making rings, so I cannot force myself. I really wanted to make it with you, but I can''t forgive Aqua..."


    "Tiara, please, just keep her company."


    "Of course, Dear Tiara Rose!!"


    The worrying voices of Aquasteed and Filine overlap on Tiara Rose, who really said they wanted to make a ring together.


    How the hell did you think you could make it yourself, so much so that everyone wanted to sigh.


    But one of them, only the acari, is nodding yeah.


    "I know, I know, Dear Tiara! Makes me want to try and make game items! But since you don''t know what''s there when you''re the current Dear Tiara... take a good look at it, will you?


    I was hallucinated that maybe Akari would tell Tiara Rose to make it with me, but it just didn''t seem like it.


    Tiara Rose nodded honestly "yes," even as she grinned bitterly.


    "Then let''s just make a ring!


    "I always think that Akali knows a lot of things..."


    Look at the clams in the hands of the flowerbird material of the night, as Haltnights impressed. Even if you saw the old literature, it wouldn''t be on how to make a ring with precious ingredients.


    "I love this world, ''said Akari, smiling with skill.


    "This is the ring I''m sending to Tiara, so please ask Aqua to do the work"


    "Okay. Give my regards to the professor, Miss Acari"


    "Yes! I''ll take care of it!


    In the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring, you can make certain items.


    All you need is two things: material and magic.


    It may seem easy to ask, but the drop rate of ingredients is low and you can''t make items that have as much magic as you need.


    Therefore, when there is less heroin magic in the early days of the game, it is helpful to have items, but it is difficult to make them.


    "We''ve got the base of the ring here, so use this."


    "Can the foundation be an existing one?"


    "That''s right. This material is magically processed to look like a gem, so it works."


    "I see..."


    Akali will be good at explaining it, but if he asks me why it is a ring here... I would only be able to give an ambiguous answer because it is a game concept.


    Tiara Rose chuckles as she sees Filine go ahead with the work.


    "I can''t believe Master Aqua made it to absorb the magic of the baby... I''m so glad"


    "Master Tiara Rose doesn''t do much with things. Normally, I think the princess would do more of a favor... but it''s also a lovely place for Tiara Rose."


    So when Tiara Rose asks me to do something, I do my best to respond, and Filine gives me a full grin.


    That''s the same with Aquasteed, trying to spoil Tiara Rose if there''s a gap, or giving her what she seems to want.


    Perhaps the ultimate example of this is the kitchen dedicated to Tiara Rose, which becomes more luxuriously easy to use once you realize it......


    Aquasteed takes the base of the ring and puts the leaves on there, the tail feathers of the flower birds of the night. The first thing to make is the Ring of Guardianship.


    "There''s not enough protection for Tiara."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    I blush at words directed at me.


    "I''m protected by Master Pearl, so you won''t get hurt by surprise, will you? Instead, I want Aqua to have the protection ring."


    "No, you can''t. From now on, there are children, so it''s not enough."


    "Even with all this, I haven''t..."


    - That''s just too overprotective, Dear Aqua!


    And furthermore, I notice that it is seen in the clams of a slight face. In retrospect of the present exchange, Tiara Rose''s face becomes so red that she wonders if the fire erupted in an instant.


    - Oh, embarrassing!


    But I''m also glad, and I care about Aquasteed, so I can''t even tell you to stop it strongly.


    Hiding his face with both hands, Tiara Rose can only shrink on the couch.


    "Ma, love bana, come on. As for listening...... now it''s a ring! Dear Aqua, If you put a leaf on the foundation, let the magic flow and say ''Create Item''"


    "Do you have such a spell..."


    Aquasteed nods honestly as he becomes half-hearted, but fails and can''t waste material.


    Staring at the ring as it slowly shed its clear magic like the sky.


    "- [Item Creation]"


    The ingredients emitted a picky, strong light, as if to echo Aquasteed''s words. And in the next moment, the pedestal of the ring and the leaf part were in one, and a beautiful ring decorated with fresh green leaves could be made.


    "Is this the Ring of Guardianship?"


    "Yes! I''m glad I did well. When I put it on, they suck magic, what do you say?


    Hearing Akali''s words, Aquasteed put the ring on his finger.


    "... sure, don''t suck the magic out of it. Not that much, but it would be enough to accommodate a child''s magic."


    "Now Master Tiara and the baby are safe! Hehe, put it on him quickly."


    "Of course."


    Aquasteed removes the ring and goes under Tiara Rose, who sits on the couch. Stay on one knee and smile gently.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "Good. Now we can protect Tiara and the children."


    "Thank you"


    Taking Tiara Rose''s right hand to handle the gem, Aquasteed tried to put a guardian ring on his pinky finger - at that moment, Tiara Rose groaned with a potentially painful voice.


    "Teiara!?"


    "Dear Tiara Rose!?"


    Aquasteed speaks up right away and Philine and Elliot come right around the corner worried.


    - I just thought I was calm, but I can''t believe the magic swells up all at this time.


    Your whole body gets hot and your abdomen is hot. I breathe heavily, so much so that I''m under the illusion that it''s burning.


    "Ha, ha... no, everyone away -!"


    "...... Huh!?"


    At the same time that Tiara Rose gave a shouting voice, the temperature in the room rises all at once. And everyone''s gaze swept to the vortex of flames that appeared before Tiara Rose''s eyes.


    "Ko, this is..."


    The moment Aquasteed accidentally opened his eyes, the flames swayed. And soon - gut shock runs. Elliot, who was right next to him, burst out in response to a flame moving towards Aquasteed.


    "Gu...... ahhh!


    A whirlpool of flames created by a swollen outburst of magic strikes directly at Elliot, who sheltered Aquasteed, sending a sad cry.


    "Elliot, no, ahhh!


    Filine screams and calls his name again and again.


    "Out of the way! Water, put out Elliot''s flames!!"


    "Oh, Elliot...... ahhh"


    Side by side the crying filine, Akali calls Aquasteed''s name.


    "Give Dear Tiara the ring! Quick!!"


    "I know......!


    Aquasteed is trying to touch Tiara Rose''s body with heat, but the flames emanating from Tiara Rose herself were coming at him.


    That''s like a junction, as if they''re telling you not to touch it. But if you leave it, Tiara Rose dies.


    "Tiara, it''s okay..."


    Aquasteed takes Tiara Rose''s hand and draws her body to herself. Take your right hand immediately and put a protective ring on its pinky finger.


    Then a pale light was emitted and the ring became the size of Tiara Rose''s pinky finger. It sucks away the magic of the flames and the heat dissipates from Tiara Rose''s body.


    Tiara Rose herself seems to have lost consciousness as a result of the current shock. But breathing is normal, and life doesn''t seem to tell you otherwise.


    Aquasteed breathes relief at that.


    "Ha, ha... good..."


    But it''s quick to feel safe.


    Elliot, who sheltered herself, should be in a dangerous condition if she can''t see a doctor right away. I hear a confusing Filine, so I decide the situation is pretty bad.


    "Elliott--"


    "I would be fine now, Master Aquasteed"


    "-! Are the injuries okay...?


    When she saw it, Elliot''s clothes burned and her skin was exposed, but she didn''t have a single burn or injury.


    Draw conclusions immediately.


    - The healing magic of Miss Acari?


    "Master Aqua has burns, too, so you''ll heal them. Otherwise, Master Tiara will care."


    "Thank you, Miss Acari. I sincerely thank you."


    "Naturally. Because Elliot, Aqua and Tiara are all important. If there''s anything I can do, I''ll cooperate!


    Akali, who said so, cured me beautifully by applying healing magic to Aquasteed''s burns.


    "Yes, boys should take a bath and get dressed, and we women should see Dear Tiara. Philine, can you help me?


    "Yes, thank you, Dear Acari..."


    Filine wets her tears and nods at the words of Akali. I thought Elliot might have died, and I couldn''t stop crying.


    But now, Elliot herself is perfectly well... and honestly lost her place to tears.


    Akali takes Elliot seriously and gives her a good smile.


    "Elliot isn''t usually noticeable, but you''re in good shape!


    Philine''s cry, "What are you talking about ~!" stuck in the royal castle to Akari, who said that all of a sudden with his thumbs up all the time.

 133 13. Cute Filine

    Take Tiara Rose to the Royal Castle guest room, where Acari and Filine take a breather. Now you can rest assured that Tiara Rose is also resting calmly.


    "I''m glad nothing happened to everyone -! The magic is sucking off the ring, and all you have to do is wait for the baby to be born safely."


    Akali is sitting in her chair and watching Tiara Rose sleep as she mumbles her nose.


    "Boy, girl, oh too much fun ~!"


    The clams tense more and more on their own can''t stop their faces from turning bitter.


    While looking sideways at her like that, Filine rings the bell and calls the royal castle maid. I have everything I need to take care of Tiara Rose around me, but I can''t possibly not have a drink for the clams.


    Watching the maid enter the room with a wagon of tea sets, the acari makes her face shine all the time.


    "Wow, tea and sweets."


    "¡­ you will be ready soon"


    "Thank you, Philine!


    When I see Akali move from her bedside chair to the couch, I make tea and serve Madeleine.


    She seemed hungry and soon the acari''s hand reached out. Eating just like that, smiling satisfactorily.


    "Yummy ~! Master Tiara will want to eat it when she wakes up, and I''ll leave it for you."


    "Um... Dear Acari"


    "Hmm? What, Philine"


    It''s very rare to be called from Filine, and Akali''s voice plays. But soon, Philine opens her eyes a little to the fact that she broke her hips deeply.


    "Hey, what''s going on?


    "... thank you for helping Elliot"


    "Ahhh! Ugh, I don''t want to thank you. It''s natural to help someone you love!


    "-!"


    It was a clam that made me wonder what the hell they were going to say, but I stroke my chest relieved that it was just a thank you.


    Elliot is also a key character in this game and one of those people who loves acari. Or as an acari, I also want to help everyone living in this world.


    And as for the acari, I''m glad that I was able to have a conversation with Filine in this way. We had hardly ever usually had a conversation.


    So Akali floats and doesn''t realize that Filine has a leaning, spicy look on her face.


    "Dear Akali, you can''t say that in such a misleading way."


    "Ah, Dear Tiara!


    Acari''s voice reached her ear and woke up. Tiara Rose opened her eyes to see what the hell she was talking about!?


    Tiara Rose slowly rises up and goes to the Acaris and to the front of Filine. I slowly took Filine''s hand and smiled, "It''s okay," he said.


    "Dear Tiara Rose... I''m fine, I''m relieved to wake up. Is there anything wrong with you?


    "Philine, it''s all about me. Thank you, I''ll be fine."


    And Tiara Rose looks at the acari, then at the filine again.


    "Then... I''m sorry I put Elliot in danger..."


    "No, Master Tiara Rose. We are close to Tiara Rose and His Majesty Aquasteed, so there is nothing more pleasing than that Tiara Rose is safe."


    Filine shook her head slowly at Tiara Rose''s words, which seemed sorry. Instead of apologizing, please praise the brave Elliot.


    To that thought, Tiara Rose feels the back of her chest getting hot.


    - It could certainly have been a cheap word against someone who pledged allegiance.


    "Thank you, Philine. Elliot is very brave and dependable. But I think I''ve worried about Filine..."


    "No, because what you say now is enough for me and Elliot."


    Having said that and smiled, Filine has very strong eyes. Until just now, I don''t think I was shaking anxiously in Akali''s words.


    But Tiara Rose opens her mouth if I don''t follow her because she got out of bed without letting that go.


    "... because Akali loves everyone in this world, it doesn''t mean she likes Elliot special."


    "Ah... yes"


    "Huh? Huh? Could I have said something extra...... right!?"


    Apparently Acari perceived everything in the words of Tiara Rose, and stood up from the couch and hurried to go before Filine, and grabbed both hands from Tiara Rose.


    Philine''s body trembles unexpectedly.


    "I''m sorry, Philine! If I did, I''d cheaply say my favor for Elliot... it''s okay, because I love Halt Knights the most!! I mean, Philine, you''re old enough, it''s time to marry Elliot...! Yes. Marry! We need to celebrate!!"


    "Heh... Huh!?"


    "Please calm down, Dear Acari..."


    "To Tiara''s pregnancy, Elliott and Philine''s marriage is a joy!


    "It''s not that easy," Tiara Rose tells Akali, who laughs ha-ha-ha.


    "Huh?"


    "Elliot is not a nobleman."


    "Oh, you know..."


    I see ~ and the clams bother me with arms together.


    "Elliot might be fine with that, but Philine''s a girl, right? Time is not boundless... but then we''ll get married soon."


    "Dear Acari?


    Tiara Rose and Filine tilt their necks at the acari looking convinced of something by themselves.


    "''Cause if you''re a nobleman, think you can get it right away"


    "Huh? - Oh, right. Indeed..."


    "Wait, what do you mean, Dear Tiara Rose, Akali?


    Filine is in a hurry for what Tiara Rose and Akali understand but don''t know just who she is. The way you think about Elliot is really cute with the girl you''re in love with.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose and Akali look at each other and chuckle.


    "Philine''s got nothing to worry about, so it''s okay."


    "That''s right. Women just have to wait for the prince to pick them up!


    I saw Tiara Rose and Acari that sounded fun and found out something must be moving in a good direction Philine... but on the contrary, I got restless.


    After resting in the royal castle, Tiara Rose returned to the mansion.


    I was worried that the magic broke out and fell, but explained to my family that there was no problem because I had already completed and fitted the ring.


    "Dear Sister Tiara, I''m glad you''re safe..."


    "Darrell, I''m sorry you got me worried. Me and the baby are fine."


    "Yes."


    Darrell smiled happily, so Tiara Rose strokes her head gently.


    "Oh, but you should get some rest."


    "Yeah, I''m gonna take a break in my room."


    As I go to my room, Darrell rushes me. Moreover, my parents, who were behind me, nodded at me with all their strength, and if I was in Aquasteed, I had reached out to escort them.


    - I''m so spoiled.


    Of course I''m happy, but I wonder if I should be so happy.


    I''m the queen of Marine Forest, so I''d like to be resolute... but now that I''m pregnant, it''s going to be difficult. Because neither Aquasteed nor Schnaus can help but want to spoil Tiara Rose.


    "Then you''ll be off in your room. Good night, Father, Mother, Darrell."


    "Oh, take your time"


    "Good night, Tiara"


    Back in the room, Tiara Rose finishes bathing, etc. I''ve eaten at the royal castle, so I can fall asleep like this any longer.


    "I fell asleep during the day, though..."


    I''m not that sleepy.


    You may want to relax and read in the room or try to grate it. When I go back to my room thinking about that, I don''t see Aquasteed.


    "Oh...?


    Where the hell did he go, Tiara Rose tilts her neck. There are not many places Aquasteed goes in this mansion.


    The dining room, library, etc. are free to go in and out, but there shouldn''t be any errands to go, especially now.


    "I tried to talk to Master Aqua and get Elliot time..."


    I remember Elliot walking in to help me when his magic ran wild. But Tiara Rose passed out just like that, so she hasn''t seen Elliot since.


    When I checked with Aquasteed at the Royal Castle, I was taking my seat off because I had some errands etc... though.


    "Oh, maybe Master Aqua is with Elliot."


    Then you might be in Elliot''s room or some other guest room. Tiara Rose rings the bell and calls Philine.


    Soon the door was knocked and he said, "What''s wrong?," said Filine in the face.


    "I''d like to walk in the mansion for a little bit, so I was wondering if you could get me something to wear."


    "I don''t mind that...... are you all right?


    "Yeah. I''m out of my stomach. The extra magic is the ring is sucking me off, so I''m doing very well."


    "... ok. But don''t push yourself too hard, okay?


    That said, Filine prepared me a long indoor outfit with a length all the way down my knee. The hair is loosely grouped together and flushed to the side.


    "She''s cute," Philine smiles contentedly, opening the door.


    "Which way are you going?


    "Master Aqua isn''t here, so I thought maybe it was Elliot''s. I asked Elliot to help me, but I still haven''t seen her face..."


    "Oh, was that what happened? Then he said he would talk to His Majesty Aquasteed in the guest room."


    Just in time Philine knew where the Aquasteeds were, so she decided to have them taken.


    I got to the guest room used by Aquasteed and Elliott and heard Elliott''s surprised voice from inside as Philine tried to knock.


    Maybe it wasn''t a good time, Filine sees Tiara Rose behind her.


    "It''s unusual for Elliot to be so loud."


    "Speaking of which, yes... What the hell are you talking about?


    The two of us tilted our necks and thought we''d come back in time - now we heard Aquasteed.


    "Oh. I defended the life of Tiara and her belly child, the # 1 heir to the throne of Marine Forest. It''s no wonder Elliot is given a place of nobility."


    Filine breathed heavily in the words.


    Because I never thought I''d know Elliot would get a place of nobility at a time like this.


    I mean, I''m letting my head go around wondering if I''m glad I found out.


    Tiara Rose chuckles at such a cute and confusing filine.


    - Dear Aqua, I think you let me hear it on purpose.


    The original Aquasteed voice is not that loud. Perhaps you stood up for me to know and dare tell Tiara Rose and Filine were outside the door.


    I cannot inform anyone else about receiving the nobility, if it were meant to be, until the Synod. Elliot, too, heard from Aquasteed this way, but you can tell Philine. Permission shouldn''t go down.


    So I guess Aquasteed told me this way so that Filine could feel safe.


    Later on, it''s Tiara Rose''s job. When I looked at Filine to tell her it was useless to say anything else, there were zero large tears falling out of her tiny, big eyes.


    "Ah... I''m sorry, Dear Tiara Rose... I, uh, what can I say..."


    Tiara Rose hugs Philine all the time with her blubbering and tears spilling and not stopping.


    "Congratulations, Philine"


    "Oh, thank you...... Ah! Is this what Tiara Rose and Akali were saying during the day?


    "Yes, you protected me and this child. Elliot must have given her the title."


    When Tiara Rose strokes her stomach and says so, Filine cries, "I''m glad".


    "In the meantime, shall we go back to your room?


    "... Yes"


    I couldn''t stop crying to take Philine''s hand and Tiara Rose returned to the room feeling happy.

 134 14. Sweet Time for Two

    A few weeks after Tiara Rose went home with Aquasteed, she decided to leave for Marine Forest tomorrow morning.


    Initially, I thought about Tiara Rose''s physical condition, and for a few months there was talk that I should not be at home with the meaning of sanatorium... but that I, the queen, should not be able to vacate Marine Forest for long.


    I''m at my parents'' house today, it''s my last night.


    "Tiara, aren''t you sure you can''t do this? Though the magic problem has been solved, evil obstruction is often hard, isn''t it?


    Aquasteed takes the hot milk in his hand and goes next to Tiara Rose sitting on the couch.


    In addition, there is hot air and my body is about to warm up.


    "Thank you, Master Aqua. Sometimes I do think it''s a little hard, but it''s not too hard to move."


    "Really? But if you need anything, don''t hesitate to say it. Otherwise, Philine will be worried."


    "Yes."


    If I did go unscrupulous, I think Philine''s going to be pissed off crying. Her sermons, which give me the most thought about Tiara Rose, always reflect on how sorry I am.


    Tiara Rose mouths hot milk and relaxes her body.


    "Delicious."


    "That''s good. It''s just a little bit of sugar, so I think it''s good for fatigue."


    Starting tomorrow I''ll have to ride the carriage again for a long time, so it would be nice to take something slow and sweet right now.


    Nevertheless, the sweets will not disappear from in front of Tiara Rose because Filine is well prepared.


    Aquasteed puts his hot milk on his desk and stares at Tiara Rose''s stomach.


    I''ve seen it many times since I found out I was pregnant, and I''ve caressed it gently, but I just had to worry about it every day.


    - Dear Aqua, she''s cute.


    Tiara Rose finds herself and her belly child very valued as such an aquasteed figure.


    "I want to see you feeling better soon."


    "Dear Aqua, you''re feeling fast, aren''t you?


    "So is that..."


    Aquasteed laughs when he has no choice because it bothers him. Unlike the usual Rin expression, a sweet face like alarm.


    Lay your own hands on Aquasteed''s hand as he strokes his stomach, and Tiara Rose slowly takes more by Aquasteed.


    Then this time, the hand that was stroking his stomach slowly strokes Tiara Rose herself. Touch your cheeks to tickle, play with your hair, and end up behind your neck to draw you towards yourself.


    "Ah......"


    "-"


    They take my lips as they are and I feel the taste of sweet milk.


    Kotsumi, and. Aquasteed puts his forehead on Tiara Rose''s forehead, narrows his eyes and smiles lovingly.


    And pompous, a word.


    "... a man would be nice"


    Yes, Aquasteed spoke.


    If you are well, Tiara Rose is surprised that Aquasteed, who said so, clearly chose which is better, whether you are a man or a woman.


    However, it is common for couples to have a conversation about which child''s gender is better.


    "Is it a boy? You''ll look better, just like Aqua."


    But after all, Tiara Rose thinks you want a prince. Because he is the king of Marine Forest, it is only natural that he strongly desires the birth of a prince who will be the king''s prince.


    - As the queen I''ve been married to, I want to have a prince.


    I might say that''s the role given to Tiara Rose.


    "Tiara, you look like you''re thinking hard."


    "Ah! I''m sorry if I..."


    "I have nothing to apologize for. You''ve been thinking a lot because I said I wanted a man, haven''t you?


    Tiara Rose has no words to give back after being exposed to the stars.


    "But isn''t it important..."


    "So it''s not like Tiara feels responsible either. Nothing, you just have to be queen when the girl is born"


    That''s why Aquasteed says there''s no need to worry about it because of the child''s gender.


    - But then why should a boy?


    "If I were a girl, I might marry someone else, wouldn''t I?


    "Uh... that''s right. I have also been married from my neighbor."


    To Aquasteed''s words I didn''t expect, Tiara Rose nods that she was the pattern while confused as to what to give back.


    "Tiara''s father is amazing.... I might not think I''d be going out to someone''s daughter-in-law if my daughter were born"


    "Dear Aqua..."


    I''m not even born yet, and I don''t know my gender. Yet you seem to be even thinking about when a child is going to his wife from now on.


    Tiara Rose laughs in her voice.


    "Master Aqua, that''s just too soon, isn''t it?


    "I know. But there''s nothing I can do about it that I didn''t like."


    "That may be..."


    Tiara Rose looks at her own stomach and thinks about when her daughter was born. Cute and raised with Aquasteed and will surely be a lovely courtesan.


    There will be many daughters who don''t like their father, but I don''t think there are girls who would hate Aquasteed.


    - Ah.


    Tiara Rose, who was thinking about living with her parents and children, went to a certain conclusion.


    "Boys are good!


    "What did you think? Tiara."


    Aquasteed tilts his neck wondering what the hell is wrong with him, even though Tiara Rose, who had not made any particular mention of his gender, told him that a man was good.


    I wish I could have explained why a man would like it right away, but I felt the reason was a little childish and Tiara Rose whispers.


    I shook my head sifting and said, "I knew it was a nashi!" I raise my voice.


    "Something you can''t tell me?


    "No, it''s not like that...... I changed my mind thinking what a selfish reason it was"


    ".................. Hmm?


    If they say that, it''s something called Aquasteed that makes me want Tiara Rose to say it no matter how.


    Because Tiara Rose at times like this definitely only says cute things.


    Well, what do we do? - Oh, my God.


    Tiara Rose is a Tiara Rose, and this'' Huh? ''The smile hardens when it''s the one you shouldn''t laugh at.


    "Oh, but... Huh! If I were your daughter, I would be very excited to have a tea party with you."


    "Tea parties organized by Tiara are popular. Surely if my daughter was born and had a tea party with me, we would be able to come with the children who would not normally be able to climb the castle"


    It''s the ladies who made their social debut who invite them to their regular tea party. But if you go with your daughter, you can invite other noble ladies and warrants.


    It''s like a privilege unique to the royal family, and if nobility does it, the factions are the same, or there''s no interaction between children unless they''re so close.


    Even with those things in mind, the children who are born will be a bridge for everyone.


    And then, I remember myself being invited to the Royal Castle Tea Party at a young age.


    I scolded myself for being so nervous, but trembling that I had to behave firmly as the Marquis'' maid who gave me Lapis.


    - That was a higher hurdle memory than I thought.


    "Whether you''re a daughter or a son, you have to be ashamed of yourself wherever you get out. Because that will help this child in the future..."


    "Right."


    Spoiling is important, but you can''t forgive anything. Otherwise, it''s the person in trouble after the social debut.


    "Tiara"


    "Yes? Dear Aqua..."


    When Tiara Rose was called by her name and turned to her face, there was an aquasteed face right in front of her. If I move a little more, I''m going to kiss you, that''s the distance.


    My heart jumps at once and I carve a fast beat with Dodd.


    "Duh, what''s wrong?


    With that said, Tiara Rose shifts her body slightly behind her. But Aquasteed also packs the distance to go with it.


    "Chi, it''s close, Dear Aqua..."


    "Tiara''s cute. Shall we go to bed? Don''t let your body get cold, let''s go to bed."


    "Yes."


    Aquasteed holds me up before Tiara Rose tries to get up. Apparently, they''ll carry you to bed.


    "You can walk yourself, can''t you?


    "I know. Really, I just want to be touching"


    ".................. Ha"


    Hide with both hands the faces that have been whispered rustling and sweet words and turned bright red. Always is, but Aquasteed is spoiling me again tonight.


    As the two of us fall asleep in bed, our eyes meet Aquasteed''s golden eyes.


    Its eyes like sparkling jewels are a testament to being king. I''m glad I can stare, but I get nervous and sometimes more than that, and I think it''s like they''re going to eat me.


    Slowly Aquasteed''s hand reaches out and touches Tiara Rose''s forehead.


    "Mmm."


    "Shall we continue with what we just said?


    ¡­¡­


    Aquasteed mouths as she looks at Tiara Rose if she hasn''t heard why Tiara Rose told her that her son is good yet.


    Aquasteed''s right hand, which was touching Tiara Rose''s hair, was placed under Tiara Rose''s neck and turned into an arm pillow. Easily, they hold me to Aquasteed''s chest.


    "Hey, Tiara. Tell me why - if you can''t, I want a kiss from Tiara."


    "From me, is that...?


    To a chuckling aquasteed, Tiara Rose blushes.


    It''s not like I''ve never kissed you from myself, so no, it''s not like that. I just get more occasional than usual.


    Tiara Rose thinks it would be better to tell her why or kiss her. But the result is an embarrassment in my brain that I don''t like to talk about.


    - And I kissed him!


    As Tiara Rose roughly turned her arm around Aquasteed''s back, Aquasteed rubbed off. I''m glad that the behavior shows me.


    - Dear Aqua, cute...... I like it.


    Slowly closing his eyes, Tiara Rose touches Aquasteed''s lips intact. If I let it go right away, I''ll be attracted with an arm pillow, "Not yet," he said.


    Honestly kiss me again, get away from me right away...... but next time I touch Aquasteed''s lips again from Tiara Rose. Now I couldn''t leave right away, and I mumbled my upper lip.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    - I tried from myself, but I''m embarrassed!!


    When I let go of my lips and opened my eyes that this was no good, Aquasteed''s golden gaze was directed at Tiara Rose.


    "Huh... Huh!? Oh, Dear Aqua, or, maybe, look all the time...?


    "Pretty and tight, huh?


    "And don''t be embarrassed!"


    I never thought they''d be watching me all the time while I was kissing from myself. I''m embarrassed to try to back off, but I can''t do that either because I''m being pillowed on.


    "As far as I''m concerned, you could have tried a little harder..."


    That''s what I said, now I''ve been kissing you from Aquasteed with my eyes open. Tiara Rose suddenly, too, forgot to close her eyes - or should I say she couldn''t react with a moment''s gap?


    "Hmm......"


    When I close my eyes with a second kiss, Aquasteed calls me "Tiara".


    "Because of this, I''d like to see Tiara''s pretty face, wouldn''t you?


    "Huh!! No, I can''t, I''m embarrassed!! Then I should tell you why I said my son should......"


    "Really?"


    I can''t believe they''re watching me kiss you just the whole time. Tiara Rose thinks and says what she just thought.


    "The... daughter will take Aqua... and..."


    "Me?


    To a decent aquasteed, Tiara Rose nods.


    "Look, look... isn''t it common for girls to ''marry your dad''"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Besides, Aquasteed is the main offensive target of the sequel, and he''s a very good-looking prince of sparkle.


    My daughter must even be tempted - and I can''t help but think.


    "So, you know, wouldn''t a boy have to worry about that? And so I thought..."


    "What about Tiara, Yakimochi? Oh, I can''t believe it was such a cute reason anymore."


    Aquasteed hugs Tiara Rose all the time and gently strokes her back, "It''s okay," she said.


    "Sure, if I were a daughter who looked like Tiara, I''d be drowning, but still it doesn''t change that it''s just Tiara Rose to me. Not the best, I don''t want anything other than Tiara."


    Of course, she''s cute when she has a child, and Aquasteed goes on, although she thinks it''s loving.


    "So there''s nothing Tiara would worry about."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    "Besides... if I had a son and they told me I was going to marry Tiara, I would never give in."


    Even if it''s my own son, Aquasteed laughs if I don''t forgive him.


    "But it''s also nice to be jealous of Tiara this way. I love you, Tiara. And, of course, belly children."


    "... Yes"


    Now I closed my eyes as the two of us stared at each other and kissed him again.

 135 15. Blessings from the Fairy

    "Dear Tiara Rose, how are you feeling? If the carriage is fast or something, don''t hesitate to tell me, will you?


    "Yes. Thank you, Philine"


    A few hours after going through my parents'' house to return to Marine Forest. I can''t stop Philine''s whiskering in the carriage with me.


    The first carriage includes three people: Tiara Rose, Aquasteed and Filine. The second carriage is ridden by Elliot, and the escort knights, including Tarmo, are marching around the carriage with horses.


    Finally, I''ve only brought one stuffed animal that Schnaus gave me, and I''m sitting right next to Filine.


    "Philine will be watching Tiara closely, so I think I can go to work safely"


    "It''s okay, I''m making a proper adult......"


    To a soothing tiara rose, Aquasteed chuckles.


    "You don''t have to. If you need anything, I''ll protect you, so don''t hesitate to tell me, okay?


    "Yes."


    "Even if my job was busy and it lasted all night, right?


    "Ugh... even that is sloppy, Dear Aqua!


    Tiara Rose breathes when she is very unlikely to be able to talk to Aquasteed in that condition about things that might cause her even more concern.


    If you''re feeling a little ill, you just have to shut up and sleep.


    Yes Tiara Rose thinks, "You see," Aqua Steed gently strokes Tiara Rose''s head.


    "That''s why we need Filine. I can''t wait for my husband to shut his mouth because he''s tired."


    "... right. If I were in the opposite position, I wouldn''t like it. If anything happens, I''ll talk to Mr. Aqua."


    "Oh, do that"


    - Let''s talk to Aqua more seriously from now on.


    I was made aware again because I was not alone in my body.


    As we crossed the border gate into Marine Forest, wow - the fairies came around the carriage all the time.


    The straw-flying fairies are so adorable, but I''ve never seen a sight like this before, so Aquasteed and Elliot get a little too.


    "... I can''t go on with this, so why don''t we just go outside and take a break"


    "Yes."


    Down the carriage escorted by Aquasteed, the fairies came in a straight line to Tiara Rose.


    "What, me?!?"


    I don''t know what the hell is going on, but I look at the fucked-up smiling fairies and I get out of my body. Because they don''t even think of fine dust to do something to themselves.


    When the Fairy of the Forest came, he flew around Tiara Rose and offered me flowers. When they receive it, the fairies have a full grin.


    "Yes! It''s a gift!"


    "Eh heh, bless the baby!"


    "Cheer up."


    When the fairies of the woods, the sea, and the sky touch Tiara Rose''s belly, the glittering particles pour down. The fairies seem to have gathered to give their blessings to the baby in their bellies.


    "Nfu, full of energy!


    "I''m sure you''ll have a beautiful child like Master Pearl!


    "Looking forward to it."


    The most surprising things to see the Blessing-giving Fairies are the Aquasteeds and Elliotts, who were originally born in Marine Forest. Because there is no precedent for blessing a prenatal baby...


    Aquasteed looks at the fairies, holding Tiara Rose''s shoulder.


    "Thank you for the blessing. Our children are happy to be born blessed by the fairies"


    "Thank you"


    Tiara Rose thanks you just like Aquasteed and strokes her own stomach.


    I was very surprised in my heart because I didn''t think I would get blessings from all the fairies.


    Tiara Rose blesses from the forest fairies, Keith and Pearl.


    Aquasteed blesses from sky and sea fairies, crails and pearls.


    - Maybe this is how you blessed me because I''m a child of Master Aqua.


    If Tiara Rose hadn''t been liked by the forest fairies, it could have been just a blessing from the sky and the sea.


    When I returned to the royal castle with blessings from the fairies, I was informed by my maid that Olivia was coming.


    Tiara Rose thinks it''s unusual to come in such a hurry, although she probably got information from somewhere about her return today.


    Face to face with Aquasteed and ask the maid.


    "Master Olivia?


    "Yes, we are waiting for you in the guest room, what will you do?


    "Then I''ll be on my way, so could you tell him that?


    "Yes, sir."


    Tiara Rose is not particularly busy, so she asks you to convey the acknowledgement immediately.


    Besides, I want to tell Olivia that I had a child. Aquasteed also seemed to have drawn on Tiara Rose''s intentions and immediately nodded gently.


    "You knew Tiara was coming home, so maybe there was something you needed to hurry up with. I have to go to the office for a little while, but call me as soon as something happens."


    "Okay."


    Once he broke up with Aquasteed, Tiara Rose headed to the guest room where Olivia waited.


    Olivia, holding her nose in handkerchief, was blinding and staring at Tiara Rose, who came into the guest room looking excited.


    It''s a little red stained, so I''m sure there was something exciting about it.


    "Senior Tiara Rose......! Congratulations............!!"


    "Eh."


    Tiara Rose is bewildered by Olivia, who has given her the words of celebration and gifts at the top of the opening.


    I haven''t told anyone that Tiara Rose is pregnant, and I haven''t even set a date to announce yet.


    Could there be a fairy? Though I thought so, they also have nothing to talk to people about unless they''re such favorites.


    - How do you know that?


    I''m sure that question has come to Tiara Rose''s face. Olivia snapped her nose and then said, "It''s a deduction!" and stretched his chest.


    "''Cause I started fixing it at the Royal Castle."


    "That''s all, is it?


    "Yeah. Oh, my gift is ragged"


    "Thank you, Master Olivia"


    When I opened the box I received before I heard the story, it contained adorable pink and water colored rattles. Featuring a fairy-inspired design, it has a luxurious finish.


    I took it in my hand and shook it, and it rang high with Karan Karan.


    "Wow, cute......!


    "Boys and girls, I''ve got two colors for you to use no matter which one you''re born with. I''m so glad you like it."


    "Let me take care of it."


    When Tiara Rose hugs the rags tightly, the sound of a concon and a knock echoes in the room.


    I guess the maid brought some tea.


    "I shouldn''t...... I will not disclose that I am still pregnant."


    "I know it''s too late, but then you should hide the rags. Put it in a box and put it on the side table over there."


    "Huh? Uh... yes"


    I''m curious about the word "too late," but I don''t have time to think about it right now. Tiara Rose hurried the rags back into the box and placed them on the side table.


    Upon prompt entry, a maid came prepared with a tea set.


    "We have Louis Bostee and Financier for you today"


    "Thanks"


    - Louis Bostee?


    I don''t hate anything, but they usually brew tea...... and Tiara Rose thinks. When a customer is coming, it doesn''t change much unless it''s their preference.


    I''m smiling gladly when I see Olivia, so there doesn''t seem to be a problem......


    Olivia chuckled as she made sure the maid dropped.


    "Tea contains caffeine, but Louis Bostea is non caffeine."


    "Huh? Huh... is that what this is about?


    "Yes."


    I care about Tiara Rose who is pregnant and she is silent because it is not well known that she is pregnant......


    I hold my head wondering when the hell I got to know.


    "Speaking of which, Master Olivia knew. Uh, wouldn''t it be so unusual to fix a royal castle?


    The historic Royal Castle has many places where the exterior is splendid but needs repairing. With each passing of time, gap winds may concern you or leak rain.


    Of course, it is repaired gradually, and there is little such thing because it is managed properly from day to day.


    "It was closer to refurbishment than repair. Like eliminating high steps, or changing the material on the wall so that it can protect the room from the fundamentally cold. It is we who serve the King who have given us a life that must be protected or weakened - and who want to think so."


    "... it was"


    The nobles are for the king...


    Marine Forest is a very peaceful country and also has good relations between royal marquis nobles. Therefore, there were many voices wishing for the reigning Aquasteed child.


    Where I''ve always thought so, if I get construction instructions from Aquasteed that are like caring for pregnant women... with the fact that I can''t help but receive and rise to it.


    Of course there is a possibility of their mistake, but then you just have to expect the next one again.


    "The people may want to make the announcement to the nobility sooner rather than later."


    "Yes, I would like to celebrate Tiara Rose as soon as possible."


    "I''m glad. Thank you, Master Olivia."


    From Olivia''s nose, who smiled with a dust, her nose bled.


    "Ah......"


    "Oops, excuse me!


    Sooner than Tiara Rose said anything, Olivia held her nose down slightly with her handkerchief. I''m going to be worried the other way around because I remain gracefully seated without showing any upset colors at all.


    "... why the hell did you get a nosebleed from that one?


    It wasn''t that exciting, was it? and Tiara Rose tilts her neck.


    "Well... I imagined the future a little bit"


    "Is it the future? Could it be that Olivia..."


    "If Lady Acari and Her Highness Haltnights had a child and married Lady Tiara Rose''s child... wouldn''t we be stepmother of each other''s heroine and villain warlord''s child...!


    Why don''t you kind of screw up the tension? and Olivia approached me with her burning eyes behind her glasses.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "It''s a common development, but as a game fan, you can''t miss it! Dear Tiara Rose, your child is beautiful, no matter what your parents look like...... I''m sure if you make your social debut, you''re definitely hot!


    Apparently Olivia is getting paranoid.


    "- Ha! We''re close now, but if Tiara Rose and Akali stayed close... there might have been a Romijuli pattern too!


    "Dear Olivia, your imagination is too successful!


    Tiara Rose said, "Please calm down!" I raise my voice.


    Of course, if Akali is given a child, it may be possible to get engaged, get married and move on, but I don''t plan on doing that at all at the moment.


    Olivia seems to have realized that she''s become too excited, too, making her face red and lean down.


    "Sorry, I''m so happy... embarrassed"


    "No, I''m glad you''re feeling better."


    I laugh when I think that Olivia and Akali are going to come along better than I am when the child is born.


    "Come visit me when you are born, Master Olivia"


    "Of course! I''ll be rushing soon!!"


    Then after a while of chatting, Olivia left because Tiara Rose might get tired if she stayed too long.


    Looks like you really rushed me today just to celebrate my pregnancy.


    On the road back to his room, but Olivia floats in her brain wondering what she will do in the future. Nevertheless, it is not a project where Tiara Rose easily pinches her mouth.


    When it comes to what I can do, it''s all about responding to it when Olivia asks for help.


    "... I wonder what happened to the end of the sequel villain warrant"


    Though, I guess I don''t have a problem because I live well and do a hobby sanctuary pilgrimage. Before your stomach grows, you might want to have him taken to a recommended sanctuary somewhere.


    When I went all the way back to the room just a little while exercising, Aquasteed had already returned from work.


    Looks like he was relaxing from the balcony and watching what was going on outside. The sunset dyes the garden orange, beautiful.


    "Welcome back, Tiara"


    "I''m home now, Master Aqua"


    When I go beside Aquasteed, I gently hold my hips.


    "What about Miss Olivia?


    "As a matter of fact... I''ve lost my pregnancy... I got you a gift."


    "I knew it."


    Apparently Aquasteed expected it and giggled dull.


    "I gave you a lot of construction instructions. But I try not to make it public properly, so it''s okay. I guess it''s enough to change the menu of meals and drinks a bit."


    "Thank you"


    I won''t make it public yet, but if you don''t take care of it, I''ll be in trouble as an aquasteed.


    So there are places where I dared to create such an atmosphere and pay attention to it.


    "Starting tomorrow, there will be regular check-ups of doctors, and I think there will be a little more people to know. If you ever think you don''t like anything, don''t hesitate to say it, okay?


    "Yes. If you need anything from Master Aqua, talk to me, will you?


    "Of course."


    Tiara Rose smiles and leans against Aquasteed from herself.


    "Hmm?"


    "... me and this kid, I thought... Aqua would be happy to protect me."


    - I''m happy to protect you both.


    Aquasteed gently hugs Tiara Rose and drops a kiss on her lips.


    "My body needs to get cold, let''s go inside"


    "Yes."


    Turning their backs on the sun-dyed garden, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed leaned back indoors as they both leaned in.

 136 1. Calm Daily

    In Marine Forest, the season has been spring to summer, and there have been many hot days.


    In the royal castle gardens, the forest fairies look after the plants with pleasure, and the sea fairies with their faces out of the fountain are watering them down. The Fairy in the Sky sends a cool breeze to Tiara Rose and Filine, who are on the bench.


    "All the fairies are well. Isn''t it hot?


    I can''t believe I''m about to melt without the shadows... Tiara Rose smiles.


    Favored by fairies, Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest.


    Fluffy honey pink long hair with watery eyes. The queen of Marine Forest, who has a lovely face and is drowned by her husband, the king.


    Now she''s six months pregnant, and she''s starting to understand how her stomach is fuzzy.


    Tiara Rose, who lives full of happiness, is actually the villain''s warrant for this game - The Lapis Lazuli Ring. I remember playing games in my previous life.


    It was at first that I was anxious to be the Villain Lady, but my husband, Aquasteed, accepted it and loved Tiara Rose.


    "Don''t you feel the temperature much?


    "That... might be a little jealous."


    Hearing Philine sitting next to him, Tiara Rose stares at the fairies.


    "You can wear it in winter, but there''s nothing you can do in summer. Dear Tiara Rose, if you have any inconvenience, please tell us immediately"


    "Yes. Thank you, Philine"


    Philine Sanfist, a samurai, is the one who is willing not to inconvenience Tiara Rose.


    He puts his yellow-green hair together in a cap and is dressed in elegant long samurai clothes. Tiara Rose has been a samurai since she was young and she is a trusted person who grew up like her sisters.


    Filine, who was watching the fairies, said, "Is it time to go back to your room?," he called Tiara Rose.


    "Already? I''m still fine..."


    "If you stay out too long, you will be worried about His Majesty the Aquasteed. How about we go around your garden? Fruit water will be provided"


    "... right. It''s tough when Aqua''s worried."


    To Philine''s words, Tiara Rose laughs dull.


    He looks worried cautious when Tiara Rose tries to work or exercise after she is pregnant. Are you sure it''s okay to move? and.


    Recently, I even feel like Aquasteed''s cliche has become "better off..."


    Nevertheless, just standing still is the opposite of bad for you.


    Since the obstruction is not terrible, the doctor also tells me that it is better to take a moderate walk.


    - I''m very glad you''re worried, though.


    Tiara Rose strokes her own stomach and rises off the bench.


    "Let''s take a short walk back to your room"


    I also talked to the baby in my stomach more this way.


    I was a little embarrassed at first, but now I don''t really care. That is, Aquasteed, Olivia and the fairies, including Filine, speak up.


    This child is loved - when I think about it, I hear a gentle voice calling herself "Tiara".


    A gentle husband entered his sight, coming here on foot on a cared for rose path.


    "Dear Aqua!


    "I was going to take a short break. Tiara, how are you feeling?


    "No problem. Me and my baby are very well."


    When she hears Tiara Rose''s reply, Aquasteed smiles happily.


    Escorting Tiara Rose is Aquasteed Marine Forest.


    He is the king here in Marine Forest and the dear husband of Tiara Rose.


    Dark blue hair with golden eyes, a testament to the king. The neat face is beautiful and always has a gentle grin on Tiara Rose.


    "Were you taking a walk with Filine?


    "Yes, the fairies were all taking care of the plants, so I was taking a break and watching."


    That''s why he''s not walking so much, Tiara Rose laughs bitterly.


    "You''ve got more chances of the fairies coming to the royal castle lately. After all, is it because you blessed this child?


    "Perhaps so. Everyone talks to their belly babies."


    Marine Forest has forest, sky, sea fairies and their kings.


    Bless those you like and give them an edge of their power.


    "Our children are too loved to worry the other way around"


    "Nobody takes it, do they?


    Aquasteed seemed anxious that if a born child missed the fairies more than he did... I''m busy on official business and it''s hard to take time during the day.


    Although I''m just more confident of loving you than anyone else.


    Walking through the lazy garden, I stumbled upon Sirius.


    "Ah, Sister Tiara!


    "Prince Sirius. It''s strange to see you here."


    Sirius Lapislazuli Lactomut was the one who happily called Tiararose''s name.


    He is the second prince of the kingdom of Lapis Lazuli, the fatherland of Tiara Rose, and now comes to study at Marine Forest.


    I''ve known Tiara Rose since I was a young girl and she admires me like a sister.


    "Recently, fairies have been showing their faces in the garden a lot. Actually, I want to get along, and I''m just passing through."


    "It was... The fairies are whimsical, but I''m sure Prince Sirius will get along."


    "I feel like if you could tell Sister Tiara that, it would work out kind of well"


    Sirius listens to Tiara Rose and gives her an extraordinary smile.


    Aquasteed nods, "I''m sure you can," too.


    "Fairies rarely bless those in other countries, but they are not unprecedented. There are many fairies in the royal castle right now, so you should take your time talking to them."


    "Yes, thank you!


    Sometimes the king has pushed his heartbeat, and Sirius seems more tempered than he was earlier.


    "Oh, I was. Sister Tiara."


    "Yes?"


    "It''s before the announcement, so I can''t say much...... Congratulations on your pregnancy"


    ¨D¨D


    I hadn''t told Sirius yet, so Tiara Rose puts her hand on her mouth in surprise.


    I do have a bloated stomach, but even though I don''t know it from looking at it because I was having my dress devised.


    It''s still before publication when it comes to Tiara Rose''s pregnancy, but some humans know it. They include samurai and escort knights, doctors, chefs and some maids.


    "Thank you, Prince Sirius. But you''ve noticed."


    "It''s about Sister Tiara, so I get it. Besides, I can see the people around me are more concerned than usual."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly that it''s still something that gets ripped off in an instant by someone who understands.


    Aquasteed also seemed surprised, but immediately smiled and spoke to Sirius.


    "We''re adjusting the timing, but we''re going to publish it in a little while. Until then, please keep it a secret, Prince Sirius."


    "Of course it is. I''m sure it''ll be a festival to name the country."


    Looking forward to it now, Sirius looks happy.


    Glad, but still embarrassed... I think so Tiara Rose.


    When I broke up with Sirius and went back to the room, Filine prepared fruit water for me.


    "Ha... you''ll be back"


    "It''s hot out there. But you''re also gonna watch out for your body being too cool, right?


    "Yes."


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed sit on the couch side by side for a relaxing time. This is how the two of us spend our time together, it feels good.


    Aquasteed sees Tiara Rose put the glass on the table and gently reaches for her cheek.


    "Dear Aqua?


    "No... I thought if I had a child, I wouldn''t have much time to settle down"


    "Sure, I hope it''s tough to take care of you."


    I wish you could take a nap on the good boy, but he could cry and grumble.


    There is no position in this world as a nanny, and mothers raise their children, even if they are queens. For this reason, it is inevitable that you will be tight on the child you were born with.


    Tiara Rose rubs against a hand that touches her cheek and stares at Aquasteed with an upward look.


    "Dear Aqua... I also love the time to relax with Aqua. So don''t forget about me when you have a child, okay?


    "Tiara......"


    Sometimes I think that if a girl were born, Aquasteed would be mellow...


    That doesn''t mean I don''t like it, though. I just think I''m going to hate myself for being lonely... though.


    That''s why I took the courage - embarrassed and hard to call him, calling him Aquasteed''s name without honor. Aqua, and.


    When it came to the called aquasteed, I blushed my cheeks happily. I''m actually weak when I''m struck unintentionally because I can''t usually get them to call me.


    "Oh already, how far does Tiara feel if she captivates me?


    That said, Aquasteed mouths Tiara Rose.


    "Mmm..."


    Tiara Rose slowly closes her eyes and accepts, leaving herself to Aquasteed. A gentle, sweet kiss is going to make the summer heat melt together.


    When her lips gently leave, now Tiara Rose touches Aquasteed''s cheek.


    "Even I... remain captivated by Aqua, right?


    So you''re my son, and you have a naughty grin.


    "Not at all. Doesn''t look like an enemy to Tiara"


    "That''s my dialogue. Aqua is going to spoil me and do something about it."


    "As far as I''m concerned, you could do something more...?


    "... Huh! Aqua."


    If you don''t have a heart any more, Tiara Rose will stop this topic.


    And I remember a letter from my parents. I was just about to go for a walk, so I was going to check it out later.


    "May I confirm your letter for a moment?


    "Sure. Anything wrong?


    "It''s from my parents'' house, so it could be about my stay in Marine Forest. Because it''s better for Aqua to know."


    Tiara Rose takes the letter she left on her desk, opens the seal with a paper knife and returns to her seat.


    There was a letter from his father, Schnaus, and a letter from his adopted stepbrother, Darrell.


    "Wah, it contains a letter from Darrell! Glad."


    "Good for you, Tiara"


    "Ha!"


    Tiara Rose was initially very worried about being able to get along with Darrell, who had been adopted. That''s why I was so happy to get a letter.


    It is written hard in a difficult letter, and Darrell''s hard work can be seen at a glance.


    "What about Darrell?


    "... you seem to be worried about my body. If possible, he wants to come to Marine Forest before giving birth."


    Darrell was good at healing magic and was the first to mention Tiara Rose''s pregnancy. Even when I got sick, I remember you worrying me very much.


    If it was meant to be, I wouldn''t have a problem with it if I had a Marine Forest doctor.


    But it turns out that your belly baby has a tremendous amount of magic, and something unexpected could happen.


    Actually, there was that, and Darrell was also moving on between Aquasteed and Schnaus talking about having Darrell wait in a separate room when she gave birth.


    "You''re my sister''s sweet brother. If Darrell''s coming, you''re welcome here. Another letter, too, about that?


    "Ah, that''s your father''s letter"


    Tiara Rose takes another letter and reads its contents.


    "Uh, ''Tiara! How you doing? This one''s almost done remodeling the house. Come visit me anytime. The bespoke stuffed animal I ordered for my children is almost finished''... sorry Dear Aqua, it wasn''t my usual father''s letter, not my plans to stay etc."


    "Really, Tiara is loved."


    Aquasteed laughs at how loving Schnaus-like her daughter is.


    "Then I''ll pack the dates for Darrell and the others. Do you mind?"


    "Yes, thank you very much."


    Some Darrell is good at healing magic, some Royal Castle doctors, and Tiara Rose thinks it''s going to blow everything up about anxiety.


    - I want to see this girl soon.


    With that in mind, Tiara Rose leaned against Aquasteed''s shoulder.

 137 2. Festival to give the country

    Shh, shh, and Tiara Rose takes several deep breaths to calm herself down.


    Seeing that, Aquasteed chuckles.


    "It''s okay, Tiara. Don''t be so nervous."


    "I can''t, I get nervous. Very occasional......!


    Tiara Rose, with her hands on her cheeks, dressed Philine in a relaxed dress for her support.


    Today, Tiara Rose''s pregnancy is about to be unveiled and revealed to the public. For this reason, I am more nervous than usual...... so.


    - Maybe this child will be the next king.


    Thinking about it, I can''t tell you not to be nervous.


    "You''ll have a warm drink. I think that will calm you down."


    "Thank you, Philine"


    Once he sees Filine leave the room, Tiara Rose gently checks out the window. The square was very busy with a crowd unheard of today''s announcement.


    I wonder what kind of pleasure it is, and it seems to be softening.


    Besides, it seems like it''s already in a festive mood, with stalls.


    "Sounds kind of fun"


    When you accidentally spill a grin from Tiara Rose, you smile that so does Aquasteed, who came next door.


    "Nobody''s gonna think there''s bad news."


    "Because Marine Forest is a rich and peaceful country. You''ll be glad to know that."


    "Right. And that''s because Tiara has always been there for me."


    ¨D¨D


    Thanks for staying with me, Aquasteed has just kissed me to the touch.


    "I am the one... who has always supported Master Aqua. But if I could have been a good supporter... I''d be glad."


    "Yeah."


    Aquasteed gently takes Tiara Rose''s hand and escorts it to the couch. Then Philine, who just prepared herbal tea, came along with Elliot.


    "Thank you for waiting, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Now that we''re ready to publish, we can move on."


    Looks like Elliot came to tell me that he''s ready for publication.


    As this remains the country, Tiara Rose''s birth control is announced, and then Tiara Rose shows her face off the terrace along with Aquasteed...... flow.


    So Tiara Rose''s turn is really only at the end.


    "Thanks for the report. There''s nothing wrong with that, so move on."


    "Yes."


    Upon hearing Aquasteed''s reply, Elliot immediately left the room.


    Then as I drank the herbal tea and slowed down, I heard a loud cheer from the outside saying wow wow.


    "Looks like Dear Tiara Rose''s pregnancy has been announced! It''s a great cheer."


    Filine seems as happy as she is about herself, and Tiara Rose lights up.


    "... I''m so glad this girl is welcome"


    "Yes, I am also very proud to be a lady of Lady Tiara Rose"


    If you notice, Filine is not very tearful of joy, and Tiara Rose rushes to wipe that eye area with a handkerchief.


    "What will Philine do when she cries?"


    "I''m sorry, I''m happy..."


    When it comes to Tiara Rose, the tear glands loosen as soon as possible, Filine said.


    "You''ve been crying at me."


    "Dear Tiara Rose...... Huh!


    Elliot just got back where the two of us were lurking.


    "Wow, what''s wrong!?"


    Sounds like you''ve been impressed.


    Aquasteed answered Elliot''s query and saw the two of them.


    Grab Tiara Rose gently, hold her eyes gently with a handkerchief and kiss her forehead to reassure her, "My wife is cute," she said.


    Seeing that, "That''s just not possible..." Elliot also offered Philine a handkerchief.


    "It''s a happy day, isn''t it? I know exactly how Filine feels."


    "Elliot...... thank you"


    Philine, who received a handkerchief, smiles.


    "Hi, when it comes to Dear Tiara Rose... I''m happier than I am. It''s my turn to show you what Tiara Rose is going to look like, even though I have to be firm..."


    "It''s okay," Elliot tells Philine, who wipes her tears in a hurry.


    "That''s why I love Master Tiara Rose, too, because she''s such a filine. Of course, even me and Master Aquasteed."


    "... Yes"


    Nodding at Elliot''s words, Filine rises.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, I would like to make a few eye changes."


    "Thank you, Philine. Please."


    Hurry up and put on the disintegrated makeup, and Filine finishes her prep. Now you won''t have a problem whenever your turn comes.


    Clear white skin is beautiful and Tiara Rose looks like a beautiful doll. Philine stretches her chest in order to thrive.


    "Master Tiara Rose is the most beautiful in the world"


    "My dear Philine."


    While bitterly smiling at her own samurai pushing her heartbeat, Tiara Rose expresses her gratitude.


    Seeing that the exchange between the two is over, Aquasteed stands up "I guess it''s time".


    "Shall we go to the terrace then, Tiara"


    "Yes."


    When I went out onto the terrace in an Aquasteed escort, I received so many voices that I wondered if the earth had wobbled for a moment.


    "Congratulations! Dear Tiara Rose! Your Majesty Aquasteed!!"


    "The future of Marine Forest is also cheap!


    "Congratulations!!"


    Many words of celebration reach Tiara Rose''s ears. I''m so happy about that, it makes me feel so much better.


    But now it''s time to respond to this celebration with a smile on your face.


    Tiara Rose waves and sees those who have gathered.


    "Thank you. Me and my belly child are fine. I''m so glad you''re celebrating this way."


    Over and over again, Tiara Rose gives a full grin. Next to that, Aquasteed is kind enough to support me about Tiara Rose.


    The people can''t seem to hide their joy, and someone says, "It''s a festival -!" He raised his voice.


    "Wow, looks like they''re throwing us a festival"


    Tiara Rose is in a hurry for a dull, laughing aquasteed.


    "Isn''t that just great?!?"


    "That''s all Tiara loves, to the people. You can laugh and accept."


    "Dear Aqua...... Well, I''m very happy for everyone."


    I think you''re very happy that you''re a villain warrant lady and you can have such a future.


    - So I will also be able to support this country.


    Tiara Rose felt that way stronger when she saw the people who seemed to be happy to get together.


    It''s good that the people are in festival mode, but at the same time, there has been a fuss within the royal castle.


    Many people are happy and grateful to come and tell Tiara Rose and Aquasteed the words of celebration.


    But he said, "Soon your son will be a prince or a princess or a fortune...!" Oh, my God.


    After a few days, many gifts came not only from the nobility of the country but also from the royal nobility of other countries.


    I can''t get into Tiara Rose''s private room, so much so that I have a private room.


    Philine, who is chased by that confirmation, is very happy to carry out her work because it is a celebration to her husband, though very much.


    "Philine, are you okay......? You''ve got a lot more work to do, haven''t you?


    When Tiara Rose says when she''s having tea, Filine smiles, "It''s okay," she says.


    "The royal castle maids are helping us sort it out, too, so it''s not that hard. Gifts for Dear Tiara Rose, make a list."


    "Thank you, Philine"


    Knock sounded there and Aquasteed came looking tired. In that hand there is a single letter, and Tiara Rose and Filine look at each other, wondering if there would have been any trouble.


    "We''ll bring you some tea soon."


    "Oh, thank you"


    As Filine lowered to prepare tea, Aquasteed sat down beside Tiara Rose.


    "Good day, Master Aqua. Can I help you?


    "... right"


    When Tiara Rose asks, Aquasteed really affirms it. If it were always, Aquasteed would solve most things.


    It was unusual for me to tell myself that I was, and I kind of thought I''d be happy.


    "Is that the letter?


    "Oh. It''s from Saravia"


    "From His Majesty Saravia...?


    Is that a word of celebration for my pregnant self? When Tiara Rose opened the letter with that in mind, it was an offer to engage the baby to be born.


    It was about the two children, so Aquasteed seemed to put it right in Tiara Rose''s ear as well.


    "Engagement...... even though I still don''t know if I''m a prince or a princess"


    Too much, Tiara Rose laughs bitterly. But I also know that that''s all I want to do to connect with Marine Forest.


    "But I don''t think His Majesty Saravia had any children."


    The Tiara Rose question is also natural.


    In the first place, Saravia should have been divorced from all of her multiple wives...... and Tiara Rose recalls.


    Yet by engagement, what the hell does that mean?


    The question was answered by Aquasteed as he sighed.


    "Looks like we got back together after we got home from Sandrose. Now that the two wives are pregnant, I''m guessing that means they''re engaged to the child they were born with."


    "Well......"


    I just have to raise my voice to my surprise.


    This one and his opponent say they don''t know their gender. What are you going to do if you are all men?


    - I wonder if I''ll wait until the princess is born.


    But Sandrose is polygamous, so I think Tiara Rose is going to be blessed with the child again soon.


    "So, what are you going to do with the... Aqua?


    Given the fact that it is royal, the issue of political marriage reaches around. Even Tiara Rose was engaged to Halt Knights at first.


    I was born into a royal nobleman, so I understand that''s some kind of duty.


    So Tiara Rose is willing to follow it if Aquasteed decides to.


    But it wasn''t Aquasteed that made it.


    "Rejected. In the first place, I''m not going to let myself marry someone I don''t want."


    Tiara Rose accidentally squeezes into the clear Aquasteed.


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Given the national interest, we should have a political marriage. But I also want my kids to be tied up with someone they like like.


    But I was glad Aquasteed left the way for the kids.


    "Otherwise, I couldn''t marry Tiara."


    I''m sure she would have married a Marine Forest maid by now. That''s around Isira, the Duke''s maid.


    "Of course, in the future...... maybe something big will happen and there will be occasions when we have to have a political marriage. But if not... I want the future to be with the person my child wants."


    With that said, Aquasteed gently touches his stomach.


    "Yeah, but when I bring a hell of a opponent... I don''t know what to do"


    "Dear Aqua,


    That''s what I might do if I were a challenging opponent like Saravia, and I''d vandalize my voice to tell you not to kid around.


    Saying that, Aquasteed laughs.


    "It''s okay. Because it''s our child. They find good people."


    "Right.... but I''m done talking about that ahead. Now, let me spoil every Tiara Rose."


    "... Yes"


    The two of us looked at each other and laughed, and Tiara Rose kissed her sweetly.

 138 3. New nobility

    "Dear Tiara Rose, is there anything tight about the dress?


    "Yeah, I''m fine. Thank you, Philine."


    Have a relaxed dress on and a slightly later breakfast than usual. I have a baby in my stomach, so I''m careful not to strain my body.


    After breakfast, we often have a relaxing tea time.


    Think about fetal education, read picture books, listen to performances, and play with the fairies. Sometimes fairy kings come and twitch.


    Have fun today talking about Filine and when the child was born.


    "If I were a princess, I''d have to find a new samurai. If you are a prince, are you close?"


    "Philine, I''ll be quick."


    I need to find a candidate and educate him now, and I''m in the mood.


    Nevertheless, that''s not just Philine, it''s the same with Aquasteed. He said he''s starting to select a dedicated escort knight for children, and there will be more dedicated maids for Tiara Rose.


    Even if Tiara Rose doesn''t do something, she''s getting more and more ready around.


    "Everybody''s good and I''ve got nothing to do with it."


    "That''s not true. My life resides in my stomach, so the hardest part is Dear Tiara Rose. We can only support¡­"


    That''s what Filine says, holding Tiara Rose''s hand tightly.


    "If you need anything, you can say anything, right? I will do everything in my power to make it easy for Master Tiara Rose to spend!


    "Thank you, Philine"


    To the burning filine, Tiara Rose chuckles.


    Then you left it on the couch. This stuffed animal stood up and moved out. Apparently, the baby in my stomach was also Tiara Rose - glad you cared for my mom.


    I was in a hurry at first not knowing why the stuffed animal works, but I wouldn''t be slightly scared if I knew the baby was playing.


    "It''s cute how stuffed animals move. Cat, please play with me"


    Filine moves the hare stuffed animal in her hand and lets her play with the twirling dance.


    "Wow, cute"


    As Tiara Rose watched her smile, suddenly her cat plush jumped. And in a straight line, we run to the entrance.


    "Huh?"


    "Is there something on the door?


    I don''t know why, Tiara Rose and Filine look at each other.


    Then the concon and the knock sounded. Apparently, a stuffed animal went to the door sensing that a person had come.


    "Wow...... I have no idea what the signs are..."


    My belly baby would be excellent, similar to Aquasteed.


    If that''s what I was thinking...... it was Aquasteed I came to visit. Looks like you came by to see how Tiara Rose was doing because of one paragraph of work.


    "Dear Aqua,"


    "I''m here to see you because I got a job paragraph."


    Aquasteed''s been hugging me on my feet. I took this stuffed animal and smiled gently.


    "It''s strange how many times I''ve seen a stuffed animal move."


    Playing with the cat stuffed animal and high touch for a bit, I stopped moving. Apparently, my dad took it easy on me, and I''m satisfied.


    The sight smiles and Tiara Rose feels happy just watching.


    "How are you feeling? Tiara."


    "No problem. Right now, the three of us, the baby and Philine, were playing with a stuffed animal."


    That said, Tiara Rose shows the hare stuffed animal moving by hand.


    "Nice. Now I want you to mix it up with me."


    "Absolutely."


    When Tiara Rose agreed comfortably, Aquasteed sat next to her.


    "Oh, Philine. Tea is fine, can I just have a little tea with Tiara?


    "Yes, I did. Now if you''ll excuse me."


    I look at the aquasteed that lowered Filine and lean her neck wondering if anything would have happened.


    "Dear Aqua?


    "Not much to tell Philine from my mouth. I''ve set a date for Elliot''s epistle."


    "Is it true!?"


    To the good news from Aquasteed, Tiara Rose is happy to give her voice.


    The two were both thoughts, but they were not in from the difference in status between Philine being noble and Elliot being civilian to marriage. Until Elliot became a nobleman...... and.


    Which means you two can get married in the sun.


    What should I do if I can''t help it?


    "Good...... I''ve always been worried about Filine."


    Philine is two years older than Tiara Rose, so I''ve always cared about her getting married late.


    "So, Philine has it from Elliot?


    "You might be reporting by now."


    When Tiara Rose heard, Aquasteed nodded.


    - That''s why you let Philine back down.


    Then Tiara Rose thinks trying to get me to slow down a little bit. Especially since I don''t have a rush to ask Philine for anything, so it''s good enough for nap time.


    When Tiara Rose strokes her chest down relieved, Aquasteed also tells her she is "at ease".


    "Elliot was popular, but she didn''t have any floating stories."


    "Right...... I think a lot of the maids in the castle liked Elliot, too"


    But he said he had turned it all down.


    Sometimes I know you''ve been busy with your work, but I''m even more glad the two of you are tied together, wondering if you''ve always thought of Filine.


    "I have to think of a gift for both of you to celebrate."


    "Right. I will give you my sword at the time of the epistle, so shall I give it from me and Tiara apart from it?"


    "Yes."


    In addition to that, we also have to think about celebrating our marriage.


    Now I live in a room in the royal castle, but if I get married, I''ll need a mansion too. When that happens, there will be more to use.


    "You''re going to be busier"


    "You''re going to have a baby, too. But Tiara can''t do it. If you need anything, talk to me right away"


    "Of course it is. I want this child to be born safe."


    "Oh."


    I want to see my belly baby soon.


    Tiara Rose keeps her head on Aquasteed''s shoulder and tries to sweeten it.


    "Looking forward to seeing this girl."


    "Right."


    Then a month went by, and the day came when Elliot''s epic ceremony would take place.


    Tiara Rose is slowing down with Filine until time as the castle rushes to prep in the morning.


    Although - Filine is unusually nervous about bees.


    "It''s okay, Philine. Calm down?"


    "Ooh, I''m calm!?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly when she is absolutely uncomfortable.


    "Elliot would be fine. Something very good."


    "... Yes"


    At the time Philine nodded at Tiara Rose''s words, the sound of a knock echoed in the room and Aquasteed turned up.


    Apparently, the ceremony starts now.


    "It starts already, but you look okay?


    "Yes, no problem. I am relieved that Filine is also in the immediate vicinity"


    Things are going great today, Tiara Rose smiles.


    Then Aquasteed escorted him to the throne room where the epic ceremony would take place.


    The glow of the sun entering through the window and the National Flower Tiara Rose illuminated by it blooms. The nobles are lined up to see it, and a red carpet is laid in the centre.


    And Aquasteed and Tiara Rose sit side by side on the throne, waiting for Elliot to enter.


    A little further away is Filine. Sometimes Tiara Rose is pregnant and is allowed to be present.


    I wonder if Elliot will be all right, seeing the door as an entrance from time to time.


    The minister checks documents and such, and calls Elliot''s name.


    Soon the knight opened the door and Filine''s eyes nailed.


    "- Elio, t"


    Breathtaking for its grand standing behavior.


    It''s not the usual gentle smile or a way to make you feel tender. As one man, Elliot stood there.


    A dark blue colour that reveals his husband, Aquasteed, in white toned knightly clothing. And it''s accompanied by a deep green reminiscent of Filine.


    Looking straight ahead, the look of it is Rin, and you can say it''s exactly Aquasteed''s right arm.


    Elliot walked away and knelt before the throne.


    "By virtue of his achievements in helping His Majesty the Aquasteed, as well as Lord Tiararose and his Son, I bestow the title of Baron on Elliot"


    As soon as the minister tells him so, Aquasteed rises from the throne and walks to Elliot.


    Then he hands the sword in his hand to Elliot and smiles.


    "Thanks to Elliot, I''m safe, as well as Tiara and the kids. Thanks."


    "What a waste of words, Your Majesty Aquasteed"


    "- From now on, as a nobleman of Marine Forest, let''s give it a name as Coral Lucia"


    "Thank you. Happiness. As a nobleman of Marine Forest, I pledge my allegiance to His Majesty Aquasteed."


    When Elliot was awarded a place of nobility, the applause boiled down. Tiara Rose applauds with joy, and we all rejoice in the birth of a new nobleman.


    "To Baron Coralusia, we give him a territory to the south. Connect to deliver."


    "Ha!"


    The territory given to Elliot is a seaside location south of Marine Forest with small inlets.


    Small territory but many fairies live in the beautiful sea.


    There will be a lot of tough times in Elliott, who has just become a nobleman, but there are many comforting allies like Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, including Filine.


    To try to be more refined from now on, Elliot once again tightened his mind.


    "Phew..."


    Safely the epic ceremony is over and Elliot returns to the gallery where he was provided.


    Because I rarely go out in public, these places make me nervous. I tried to be like you...


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Elliot slowly puts her hands on the bag she leaves behind. And what I took out of it was a beautiful little box with gems.


    To give it to Filine, I''ve had it for a long time - the ring.


    I give this to you on the day of the wedding. So not yet, but I''m really curious to carry it with me.


    Let''s get dressed first and get back to work, yes Elliot thinks, Knock sounds.


    "Yes?"


    "Elliot, it''s Philine."


    "Oh, go ahead"


    As soon as Elliot gave permission, Filine opened the door and tried to get in - hardened.


    "Filine?"


    I don''t know what the hell is going on, Elliot tilts his neck. And then immediately, follow Philine''s gaze¡­ and realize that it is directed at the ring you hold.


    "Ah..."


    Accidentally, Elliot laughs bitterly.


    "Filine."


    "Huh? Oh, yes..."


    Elliot squeezes the look she was loosening and sees Filine.


    Then he took Philine''s hand, which was nestled outside the room, and invited her indoors to close the door. Filine, who is more upset than usual, thinks she''s so cute.


    Get aristocracy, and even a thinker named Filine. Aren''t you being overly blessed, my God?


    Elliot kneels as she takes Philine''s hand. And like touching a treasure - no, to Elliot, Filine is a treasure. He shines more beautifully than any gem and thinks of himself.


    Pull the hand that remained touched to your mouth and gently mouth it to the back of Philine''s hand.


    "- Even though I got the title, I''m a baron. I don''t know if I can give a response with my chest up if Filine ever deserved it."


    I understand in my head what to do as a nobleman as a side of Aquasteed. However,


    "But Filine is as important to me as Master Aquasteed. Please, I-- why don''t you marry Elliot Coralusia?


    When I told him so and stared at Filine, I saw tears in the eyes of a gentle sepia. It makes me think that she, who always behaves in a temperament, is something to protect in her own words.


    "... Yes. Thank you for your time."


    "Filine!"


    As soon as she heard the acknowledgement reply, she couldn''t stay or not, and Elliot hugged her about Philine.


    At night, a sumptuous meal was prepared in one of the Royal Castle''s rooms.


    Yes, it''s a celebration of Elliot becoming a baron and gaining the name of Coralusia.


    Tiara Rose, Aquasteed, Filine, Tarmo and just a few celebratory seats in the body that I usually work with.


    The big one will be done by Elliot as a revelation again at a later date.


    Tiara Rose asked the chef to make a dessert to keep for Elliot, and the interior decorations are also more luxurious than usual.


    The star of the day means Elliot with a glass stands before everyone.


    "I''ve never thought of myself standing forward like this since I served Master Aquasteed. Essentially, I''m good at the back¡­"


    Elliot shares her honest thoughts that it''s good for the support, but it''s hard for her to have to talk.


    "But from now on, as a nobleman, I want to serve Master Aquasteed more than ever. Thank you for your continued support.... Cheers!


    "Cheers!"


    In keeping with Elliot''s greeting, we all match the glass.


    "Again - congratulations, Elliot. I''m sorry for the delay."


    "Thank you, Master Aquasteed. No, because I know best that the process is difficult"


    "So is that."


    Elliot replies with a laugh to Aquasteed apologizing for the words of the celebration and for the late epic ceremony.


    Plus, Tiara Rose''s pregnancy sometimes meant she was more bummed than usual.


    Or...


    "Dear Tiara Rose was in labor, even after she calmed down..."


    Elliot seemed to be concerned about the busy times and the bumps. But to that, Aquasteed shakes his head immediately.


    "Are you going to keep Philine waiting any longer?


    "It''s..."


    Elliot didn''t seem to want to delay Philine''s wedding any more, either, so he stuffs the word on Aquasteed''s question.


    Tiara Rose, who watched the interaction between the two like that from the side, chuckles.


    "It''s a celebration, so make that about it"


    "You did. ¡­ Elliot, it''s a celebration from me and Tiara"


    Aquasteed, who soon cut the story off, handed over a piece of paperwork.


    "Thank you. This is...... what is this!!"


    Elliot, who glanced at the paperwork as she thanked him, raised her voice in surprise. I didn''t seem to expect it, I''m in a hurry.


    "You''d need it, wouldn''t you?


    "Sooo, that''s, I need... but I just got too much of this"


    When I saw Elliot trying to return the papers, Filine and Tarmo came next door.


    "What the hell did you get me?


    "If you had it for Master Aquasteed, wouldn''t you like me to take it?


    "... near the royal castle, it''s a mansion"


    Elliot was a little silent and opened his mouth.


    Exactly. Filine and Tarmo didn''t seem to envisage that response either, and opened their mouths pompously.


    "That''s exactly what this is..."


    "What is a mansion so easy to give...?


    Filine is in a hurry and Tarmo is in a state of confusion.


    Aquasteed opens his mouth so as to follow those three.


    "Land close to the royal castle would be hard to get, wouldn''t it? But Elliot is near me, and Filine is a Tiara Rose maid. You should have a mansion nearby for when something happened."


    "Dear Aquasteed..."


    Elliot shudders at the care.


    "Thank you. Okay, thank you. If something happens, we can rush it right away..."


    "I''m counting on you"


    The story came together beautifully, so Tiara Rose slaps her hand "Come on".


    "It''s going to get cold, let''s eat"


    "Oh, right. The chef waved his arm for Elliot."


    Aquasteed nodded at Tiara Rose''s words and the celebratory meal began.


    When will Elliot and Philine''s wedding take place, or should we have to go to the territory once, or rather open a sweet store in the territory? Oh, my God, we all celebrated Elliot''s epistle by telling stories that would please Tiara Rose.


    The wedding was to take place on the shortest possible date because Aquasteed told me to smile as soon as possible......

 139 4. Gifts for Filine

    Turn over Aquasteed. After discussing it with Elliot and Filine, it was decided that the two weddings would take place three months later.


    At times, about a month before Tiara Rose''s scheduled birth date? It was suddenly this day off because it was difficult to get some calm time after childbirth.


    Speaking of Tiara Rose, I just sent Acari a letter about Filine. Besides, including the chatter without a scratch.


    There was a little obsession between Acari and Filine, but it''s also getting a little bit less but less.


    - Though, originally, it''s because Akali hurt me or something...


    It''s strange now because it even feels like a nostalgic laugh.


    "Filine''s wedding, fun. Maybe even if I didn''t, I''d be touched and cry."


    With that in mind, it was Tiara Rose who wondered if the months would pass sooner.


    And a few days later, the case comes abruptly.


    "Dear Tiara, I''m here -!!"


    "Oh dear Acari!?"


    It was the first heroine of this maiden game who rode a horse and came at such a speed as to shake off an escort desperately following him.


    I always wanted to sigh when Tiara Rose stormed me where I was walking in the garden with Filine.


    Akali Lapislazuli Lactomut, floating at Filine''s wedding.


    Long, glossy black hair, black eyes. Trouser style for horseback riding now, but often dressed in peachy dresses.


    He is a Japanese transferee married to Haltnites, the main target of the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Rings, and lives in the Lapis Lazuli kingdom.


    "Why didn''t you contact me for a word...... Master Akali will be treated like a national guest, won''t he?


    "Well, well, isn''t that nice? I thought I had to hurry up and celebrate Filine!


    So no problem! Tiara Rose and Filine smile bitterly at each other for the acari that


    I don''t have any problems at all, but I can''t help what''s come.


    "Thank you, Dear Acari"


    Philine says thanks to Akali for rushing to celebrate.


    "No! Because we need to celebrate Filine''s wedding, grandiose! Oh, fun. So let''s just take some measurements of the dress!


    "Yes?"


    What are you talking about all of a sudden, Filine freezes.


    Tiara Rose has grown accustomed to Acari''s unscrupulous, but from a philline''s point of view, Acari is like a monster.


    Acari keeps talking about whether he realizes such a filine or not.


    "Actually, before I got here, I stopped by Master Olivia''s. I asked you to arrange a needle, so I think you''ll probably be here soon."


    "Dear Acari, are you seriously going to take your Filine measurements now and make a dress?


    "It''s a mochi!


    Tiara Rose decides to go back to her room if she has no choice in the clams she says with her face.


    "Master Akali can''t stop what''s happened.... Plus, I want to be part of Filine''s dress making. We haven''t decided on the details yet, have we?


    "Yes, now I was just talking a little bit about what to do with Elliot and the design..."


    I heard Filine say, "Leave it to me!," Acari stretched his chest.


    And in the room reserved within the royal castle, Philine''s wedding dress plan began.


    "It''s my needle, so you''ll make the best wedding dress!


    It was Olivia Ariadel who welcomed me to the excitement.


    Rose red hair, ribbon hair accessories. Honey Green''s eyes shine as hard as they aim for prey.


    She is the villain''s warrant for the sequel, and the warrant for the Duke''s house in Marine Forest.


    I love the Lapis Lazuli ring too much, all the reckoning, my hobby is pilgrimage to the Holy Land. That amount of knowledge is just enough calories to inadvertently create a personal offensive book.


    And next to Olivia is Levi, the butler.


    The brunette flushed behind him is neat and Roselette''s eyes have a strong eyelid.


    It''s the perfect butler from anywhere - the contents of which are Olivia supremacy, a little - no - quite, perverted.


    Olivia''s brought needles gratefully, and we''ll just get to measuring Filine. Levi is a man, so he prepared tea and stepped back.


    While we measure Filine, the three of us come up with opinions on what kind of dress we would like: Tiara Rose, Acari and Olivia.


    "It''s cute, but could you possibly be grown-up?


    means Tiara Rose.


    "Elliot is your wife, so what about the colorful dress?


    And, acari.


    "You might even try making it all the way!


    I think whatever you wear suits you, Olivia.


    Mm-hmm. And we all bother our heads.


    If it''s a couture ribbon, it could be cute and adult too. But the see-through dress is also sacred and colorful and hard to throw away.


    I feel like I can get ahead of the fashion when it comes to the chest of the V-line, and the off-shoulder with lace looks good on me.


    Considering that once in a lifetime, it bothers me as much as it does.


    "Speaking of which, dresses that show their backs boldly were also like fashionable in Japan for a time?


    Akali tells me he remembers seeing it in a magazine feature.


    "You had it! I remember thinking it would be nice to use dress fabrics to make roses."


    "You''ll get lost..."


    Olivia says flowers are good, and I agree that Tiara Rose is going to look good in whatever she wears, too, Philine.


    Then Philine, who had finished measuring, came blushing.


    "Ro... please be modest in your exposure"


    Apparently, I was ashamed that Akali was saying he was going to haunt Elliot with his colorful dress.


    Tiara, go to Rose''s romantic circumstances. She was a go-go, but she still gets a lot of shame when it comes to herself.


    The fact that such a place is also cute and good...... though.


    Olivia, who saw a filine called Modestly......, suddenly said, "Fine!" He raised his voice and took the paper and pencil in his hand.


    Its eyes are burning with melameras and its hands draw designs with tremendous speed.


    "Clear, less exposed...... but! Make it a total race and make a see-through around your neck!


    I finished the design with Shbababa and Olivia showed me "What do you think!?"


    As I was saying, I design and overlay grass flowers in total lace over pure white white. Calm but fine design, it suits Filine well.


    Seeing the design painting, the Tiara Roses immediately admire it.


    "It''s lovely, Master Olivia! Looks very good on Filine"


    "I like the place called Total Race! Elliot is definitely Ichikoro too for this!!"


    Tiara Rose and Akali each share their thoughts and see Filine. No matter how much the surroundings admired it, it doesn''t make sense if the person in question doesn''t like it.


    From time to time, wait for Filine to react.


    Filine takes a closer look at the dress design painting and opens her mouth.


    "Wow... can I wear such a nice wedding dress?


    Apparently it was perfect for Filine''s taste, and her voice is shivering a little from joy. This doesn''t seem to be a problem with the dress.


    After that, you can align the designs and make Elliot''s tuxedo as well.


    "Of course it is. I''m so glad you''re happy with Filine."


    "Thank you, Master Olivia"


    "You''re welcome. I''ll finish my best dress, just wait"


    Burning Russia! And Olivia''s temper is enough. Essentially, for Olivia, who''s all presumed, Filine is one of the subjects who wants to dress and love.


    "Okay! We''ve decided on a design, and then we''ll meet the girls over a treat!


    "Now let Levi bring you some extra treats. Levi!"


    As soon as the acari shakes, Olivia snorts, too. And as soon as I called my name, Levi showed up with a treat from nowhere.


    As always, this butler is out of standard...... and Tiara Rose thinks.


    Nonetheless, all the treats Levi prepares are delicious.


    Have a new cup of tea brewed and just reach out to Madeleine. I can tell it''s still warm and burning.


    - It looks delicious.


    When Tiara Rose tried to enjoy the scent, something came up from behind her body. When I instantly refused and put Madeleine on the plate, Philine immediately rubbed my back "Are you okay!?".


    "Bad obstruction, right? Are you going to throw up?


    "No...... It was just a little disgusting, not that far."


    If I don''t smell Madeleine, I''m relieved that there doesn''t seem to be a problem.


    Tiara Rose, however, had been hit by another shock,


    - I can''t believe my body refuses sweets...!!


    I''ve never felt that sick before, and I just thought that evil obstruction was mild physical.


    "Are you all right? Dear Tiara Rose"


    "You might be able to have a different treat! How about panna cotta?


    Akali recommends a different treat to Olivia, who worries. Tiara Rose laughs unexpectedly, but it''s important to know which treats you can eat...... and see the treats arranged on the table.


    And it''s Philine who''s so freaked out.


    "I finally know that Dear Tiara Rose loves sweets, but now I can''t. Don''t even..."


    "Also, of course! But I don''t want the same thing to happen in front of Aqua... I want to know what''s wrong and what''s good for me."


    Aquasteed would definitely accept Tiara Rose worried, but I don''t really want to be seen feeling sick and about to throw up...... a maiden heart.


    Look at Tiara Rose looking so healthy, there''s no way Filine won''t cooperate. I snorted desperately and said, "I won''t let you!" I raise my voice.


    Besides - if there were any visitors, if anything, Tiara Rose would be ashamed of herself.


    ... Well, Aquasteed wouldn''t let that happen.


    Filine splits the treats one plate at a time and Levi also brings different kinds of things to the table.


    Of course, there are baked sweets, cakes, bread, and why even calves and Japanese sweets.


    I''ve never seen Japanese confectionery before, so while I want to eat it normally... I''ll ask Olivia for it again next time.


    "The macarons... they don''t look good. Looks like the fruit will be fine. Oh, but the fruit on the cake doesn''t seem to work."


    "How about this one?


    As Tiara Rose judged, now Filine prepared a panna cotta for me.


    "- Pannacotta''s gonna be fine!


    "I''m glad I have something to eat. What about fruit jelly?


    Tiara Rose, who took a bite of Panna Cotta, gets fruit jelly next. Neither does this one smell particularly bad.


    "... the jelly system seems to be fine."


    Even if I just figured that out, I can feel safe about my future diet.


    "Bad obstruction is hard... I''ll be there for you if you need anything, so call me anytime! Dear Tiara!!"


    "Thank you, Dear Acari"


    "Well, I can support you with anything."


    "Dear Olivia, thank you too. You''re very blessed with me, my friend."


    Whatever happened to this, Tiara Rose thought we could get over it.


    And at night, Tiara Rose reported to Aquasteed about the obstruction.


    Then they hug me like I was terribly worried.


    "It may be important to know what you can eat, but really... don''t push me"


    "Of course it is. Besides, if the obstruction subsides, you''ll be fine... oh? I can smell cookies from Master Aqua."


    "Ah!"


    Accidentally, Aquasteed rushes away from Tiara Rose. But not as uncomfortable as it is during the day.


    - I wonder why?


    While wondering, Tiara Rose tells me it looks okay. Then Aquasteed thought a little... "Maybe," he opened his mouth.


    "Maybe it''s the baby''s influence. Because the influence of magic on the mother will be greater than Tiara thinks."


    "My belly baby..."


    When I think of the daytime, speaking of which, I''m thrilled to talk about Philine''s dress, and I think she''s been the most tense here lately.


    Maybe that passed on to the baby and things changed slightly from what they were supposed to be.


    "... my feelings also affect my baby, just as my baby''s magic affects me."


    "Sounds like it. Then I need to give you a lot of love."


    "Yes."


    So first, let Tiara Rose kiss you. Aquasteed gently touched Tiara Rose''s cheek.

 140 5. Baby plush play

    Sitting in a locking chair placed by the window, blanket on the knee. Tiara Rose reads a picture book, shaken by a relaxing chair.


    There are stuffed animals around the chair that the baby is moving and it''s a little reading and listening party.


    "... Thus the girl lived happily with the fairies"


    When Tiara Rose finishes reading, the stuffed animals clap and clap.


    - Pretty!


    Tiara Rose loosens her cheeks when she can read as much of this as she wants. I can''t believe the stuffed animal is going to be an audience.


    "I wish you''d enjoyed it."


    That''s what I say, gently stroking my stomach.


    Tiara Rose thinks the baby might be on holiday time in her stomach as it''s about time for tea this afternoon.


    I think about falling asleep with myself like this, or something like that - the center of the room has shimmered all the time and the three fairy kings have metastasized.


    "Hey, Tiara! How''s it going?


    "I brought you sweets for souvenirs."


    "Wrinkles brought you tapioca milk tea! This is the best."


    Suddenly even freezing for a moment, Tiara Rose smiles and says thank you.


    "Thank you, gentlemen. I''ll get you a table."


    Actually, I was only concerned about Tiara Rose''s health, Keith the Fairy King of the Woods.


    The golden sharp eyes, the testimony of the king, are intimidating and existential, as he brings his long dark green hair forward to one hips.


    It''s my favorite personality, but the roots can also be taken care of gently.


    A subtle pearl escort is the Fairy King of the Skies, Claire.


    Empty hair is nicely cut off and has golden eyes, just like Keith''s, the king''s testimony.


    Pale and calm clail, but also has a side such as wearing women''s clothes to reassure a man hating pearl.


    All around the admirable tapioca is Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea.


    Beautifully aligned silver hair and golden eyes. Most overlapping kimono-style dresses are beautiful and vividly colored about pearls.


    Pearl, who didn''t really lean around before, but now he''s doing well with Tiara Rose as well.


    Ring the bell and call the maid and ask her to set the table. Filine is absent now because she has a wedding meeting.


    In preparation, the fairy kings see stuffed animals moving admirably.


    Keith hugs a stuffed animal and plays with his arms moving. Plus the stuffed animal also returns a reaction, so I guess it''s fun.


    "You''re clever."


    "Really. How amazing a child is born..."


    Claire also looks at Keith''s stuffed animal and says she''s looking forward to it.


    "Well, I''m glad Marine Forest looks cheap."


    "It is. I haven''t even been born yet, but the fairies seem to like babies and can''t help it."


    Pearl looks at Tiara Rose''s stomach as she nods at Claire''s words. The fact that there is a new life there may have made me wonder when I had to look at it.


    Did Tiara Rose notice Pearl''s gaze or touch her own stomach?


    "Do you want to touch it? Dear Pearl."


    ¡­¡­ Is that good?


    "Yes."


    Pearl, who still seemed concerned, brightened his expression all the way to Tiara Rose''s suggestion.


    The two of us sit side by side on the couch and Tiara Rose smiles "Go ahead".


    Pearl slowly touches Tiara Rose''s stomach in a rough way. It''s a lot older now, so I can feel the baby when I touch it.


    Keith and Claire also look at Pearl with interest.


    "Wah, it''s moving!


    "My baby kicks me in the stomach. I was surprised at first, but I''m glad to get used to it."


    "I see..."


    Pearl strokes her stomach with a gentle grin, even as she marvels at her thoughtfully strong moving baby.


    "You''ll be born well soon. Then I will give you my extraordinary blessings."


    "Dear Pearl..."


    No matter how much we bless ourselves, she is the fairy king. Tiara Rose opens her eyes because she didn''t think it would be so easy to bless her.


    Then, Pong and Keith''s hand were placed over his head.


    "You, do we look so flirtatious? I''m a child of Tiara, so I''ll give it to you whenever I want to bless you."


    "I''m a blessed Aquasteed child and heir to the throne of this country."


    "Up to two..."


    To the two of us who say so naturally, Tiara Rose is stifled up.


    I''ve been married from a neighboring country, and I can''t believe you''re welcoming yourself so warmly as a villain''s warrant -.


    Despite all the games, I am sincerely glad I have been dealing with everyone.


    Pearl looks at Tiara Rose like that and chuckles.


    "To do that, think of your body first. If there''s anything else, Aquasteed doesn''t know what to do."


    "I''ll be very careful"


    Then, because you were rumoring...... Aquasteed came.


    "Is there anything wrong with having all three kings?


    "Nothing. Hey. I''m just here to check on Tiara!


    "... well. Thanks."


    Aquasteed, who accidentally got himself in shape, also loosens his cheeks when asked why. You must have been glad you came to see about Tiara Rose.


    Aquasteed came too, so we all decided to have a slow cup of tea.


    Arranged on the table are Keith''s brought flower tea, and Clayle''s baked confectionery. Then pearl tapioca and milk tea and panna cotta with tapioca.


    On a very gorgeous table, Tiara Rose sneers.


    Today in a rare seating order, Tiara Rose and Pearl sit side by side on the couch, opposite it Keith and Claire. Aquasteed calmed his hips on a solo couch.


    It always feels a little strange because there is always an aquasteed next door. But I''m happy to get along with Pearl.


    Instead, the cat stuffed animal moved out and sat on Aquasteed''s lap.


    "This... I wonder if we''d like to enjoy tea together"


    The place soothes in the actions taken by the baby.


    Of course, maybe we''re just going to be playing together. But either way, enough to soothe the adults in this room.


    "When I''m born, I''ll give you a frivolous tapioca."


    "Well, thank you. Looking forward to it."


    "Mmm."


    It is at the point where I am, but this definitely doesn''t make me a sweet favorite child...... and Tiara Rose thinks.


    I''m looking forward to having a tea party with you now, boys and girls alike.


    - At that time, I wish I could do the same as I did today.


    When Tiara Rose takes a panna cotta with tapioca, Pearl says, "I recommend it!" and stretch his chest.


    "But it''s rare. I thought you''d eat the cake first..."


    "Oh...... Actually, there can be a little bit of an obstruction. I hope when you''re calm, but when it''s me and the baby are in a good mood... it doesn''t seem to work."


    "... difficult. Well, that''s patience until you''re born, too."


    When I tell her that the jelly system is fine, then and pearls line up a lot of panna cotta in front of Tiara Rose.


    "You can''t eat that much!?"


    "Well, if you don''t mind, it''s no problem."


    "Problem¡­"


    I suppose you think you''ll eat as much sweets as you want......


    Keith giggles as Tiara Rose and Pearl interact like that.


    "Then I''ll bring you some jelly next time."


    "... thank you"


    Why does this, honestly, feel unhappy?


    - Absolutely, I''m going to bring a ton of jelly...


    Tiara Rose expresses her gratitude with no expression, as she can see she is being teased. Then they laughed even more at Keith for getting in his bump.


    After enjoying the chat for a while, the fairies came looking like they were having fun.


    "I''m here to see you!"


    "Ah! There are kings too!


    "Dear Pearl!"


    It was the fairies of the woods, the sky and the sea who came. The fairies of the sea have legs that are mermaids and cannot fly, so the fairies of the forest and sky hold them.


    Pearl, who saw the sea fairy, immediately put water in his plate.


    ''Thank you -!


    "That''s Mr. Pearl!


    The fairies of the sea, who moved onto a platter of water, applaud and praise the pearls.


    The fairies in the sky sat courteously on the empty couch and took out their little teacups and drank their own tea.


    The fairies in the woods are flying around having fun.


    - Sexual disparities?


    With all the fairies in the woods all the time, the action of the fairies in the sky and the sea is very fresh.


    The fairies in the woods were free and began to twitch with cat stuffed animals. Apparently, this one''s babysitting me.


    - They''re all cute.


    Tiara Rose didn''t seem to be the only one who thought so, and the other stuffed animals in the room moved out.


    Around the circle, dancing too.


    "Wow! Wow!! ''


    "Let''s dance together ~"


    "Then I''ll Sing - La La La"


    Tiara Rose gets tense to the stuffed animals and fairies who start playing fun. Then the smell of the cake just makes me feel a little worse.


    - Ah, because it''s too cute...!


    If the excitement could not be stopped, Tiara Rose hides her flashy mouth with both hands.


    "I''m going to open the window for a little ventilation."


    My body''s getting a little hot, too.


    When Tiara Rose stands off the couch, she is struck by a sharp standing glare because she has been sitting on it.


    Ah - I shouldn''t.


    When I think that, my body shakes about, and I''m about to fall. The Aquasteeds soon realized that Tiara Rose was really better off because she was sitting on the couch.


    Tiara Rose closed her eyes a long time in preparation for the shock - but was taken fluffy.


    "Huh...?


    If you open your eyes, it''s the ceiling that moves into view. And here''s Aquasteed and Keith who rushed me.


    Claire and Pearl stand up from the couch worried and look at this one.


    "Tiara, are you okay?


    "Yes...... but why me? - Ah."


    As soon as Aquasteed woke me up, I noticed a lot of stuffed animals that were supporting me about me.


    - Did the baby help me?


    "Thanks"


    Tiara Rose thanks her stomach and strokes her stuffed animal as well.


    "I can''t believe I have to protect you, but I''m protected the other way around..."


    I wonder if my mother is disqualified. If I tried to say that, Aquasteed would take the lead in saying, "That''s not true".


    "We all love Tiara, so we want to help. And this kid."


    "Dear Aqua..."


    So you tell me you don''t care.


    "But you''re afraid of standing glare... Let''s get up slowly from now on."


    "Yes."


    When Tiara Rose nodded, Pearl opened the window for ventilation.


    "Now that we have all the creeps, can we rely more on them? Because it''s easy enough to carry one person."


    "Dear Pearl...... thank you"


    I thought it was horrible to ask the Fairy King for something, but I honestly think Tiara Rose will try to sweeten it next time if you say so.


    "What, are you coming to my castle until you''re born? Comfortable."


    "There''s me next to Tiara, so that''s not necessary."


    "Fuck, it was a joke."


    What do you say?


    Aquasteed immediately declines Keith''s invitation. I don''t even feel like a little spark is flying, but there are some parts of it that make the two of us feel quite comfortable.


    "Nevertheless, I didn''t expect to support the fallen Tiara Rose... an amazing stuffed animal - no, magic power"


    Claire looks at Tiara Rose''s tummy, and I think it''s going to be hard to give birth.


    "I think it''s because it''s been fun today and it''s been too much. I''ll be careful next time."


    "Oh. If anything happens to Tiara Rose, Aquasteed will break out."


    So be careful, says Claire.


    "Should we stay here because this could be a burden for Tiara Rose any longer"


    "I like that. Even so, you''re terrified of the children you''re going to have. I''m sure he''ll be a good king."


    Looking forward to it, Keith giggles.


    Claire and Pearl seemed to agree there, too, and nodded.


    "Then we''ll go home with this. See you later, Aquasteed."


    "... same-sex is easier to talk to when something happens, so you can call for fright whenever you have trouble."


    "Come to me whenever you''re tired of being in the castle"


    The three of them, Claire, Pearl and Keith, left with a metastasis.


    "Well then... shall Tiara sleep a little"


    Dropping off the fairy kings, Tiara Rose was transported to bed by Aquasteed. I''m blanketed as it is, and I can stroke my head.


    I did get a little tired, so I nodded honestly. Seeing, the stuffed animals are also stuck, so the belly baby may have started taking a nap as well.


    Tiara Rose grabbed Aquasteed''s cuff and said, "Are you at work?" Ask.


    "Yeah, I still have the paperwork."


    "... don''t force Aqua too much, do you?


    With Tiara Rose doing little work now, Aquasteed''s burden was also slightly more than before.


    I''m worried about that, but Aquasteed says it''s not a problem at all.


    "If it''s for Tiara, I think I can do anything. So just a little refill"


    "Ah...... eh"


    It is Tiara Rose who is replenishing it, although she is gently mouthed by Aquasteed who said so.


    I enjoyed my time alone for a while.

 141 6. Wedding Cake

    The preparations for Filine''s wedding also went well, and just a few moments before the ceremony...... her brother Alan came one step ahead of his family from the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli.


    "Alan! Well done for coming. Did you have any problems on the road?


    "Yes, it was a very comfortable carriage trip."


    The one who answered with a smile was Alan Sanfist, Philine''s brother.


    The yellow-green hair is with Filine and she is gentle on the face. He is the eldest son of six brothers, sixteen years younger than Philine.


    I have Tiara Rose and Elliot invest in running a sweet store for the common people in Lapis Lazuli. Performance is on the right shoulder and good.


    When Filine finished preparing her tea, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed just arrived.


    "Your Majesty Aquasteed, Dear Tiara Rose, We are out of time"


    "Well done, Alan. I need you to take your time."


    "There you are. I''ve been looking forward to seeing you."


    If it''s true, I had planned to see him on my return home earlier... but I was too busy to take the time to discover Tiara Rose''s pregnancy or solve the problem that the baby''s magic was too great.


    If it''s true, he wanted to have a sweet store meeting. All I could do was give you a new recipe or something via Filine.


    "I''m sorry I haven''t been able to take the time to talk about the sweet shop."


    "No, because Master Tiara Rose''s body is the most important thing. I look forward to having a healthy baby soon."


    "Thanks"


    Say hello and take a seat and enjoy the conversation for the first time in a long time.


    Philine rarely goes home to her parents either, so it looks like she''ll enjoy seeing Alan this way.


    Listening to my brother and sisters, Philine seems happy too.


    When Alan finished talking about the house the whole way, "Actually," he saw Filine.


    "Alan?"


    "... I have a favor to ask of Sister Filine."


    "To me, sir?


    To Alan, who looks serious sometime, Filine turns her worried eyes. He was having fun talking to me, but maybe he had some trouble at home.


    Alan mouths the rest when he sees Filine nodding.


    "Wedding cake for the wedding, could you let me make it?


    "Huh?"


    I thought it was serious, Filine opens her mouth and pounds.


    "My confectionery brand funded by Dear Tiara Rose and Elliot...... I want them to be made with ''Flower Sugar''!!"


    "Cake, is it..."


    It is common in this world to have a wedding in a cathedral, and not to make a wedding cake.


    So why did Filine get the cake? And it seemed strange.


    "In Lapis Lazuli, it''s fashionable to eat wedding cakes for weddings. The wedding at the confectionery division had a very successful cake announcement¡­"


    "I don''t mind if that..."


    Even as Alan, you want Philine to be reassured that you are doing a fine business in this way.


    Since there was no reason to say no, Filine immediately accepted.


    But it was Tiara Rose who waited here.


    "Dear Alan, you can''t just shut up and listen to that."


    "Dear Tiara Rose?


    No matter how much my sister''s wedding cake, my daughter-in-law is Elliot, the nobleman of Marine Forest.


    Alan is anxious that maybe he won''t make a cake.


    "Of course, I won''t have one! For Philine''s sake, make the best wedding cakes!


    "Dear Tiara Rose..."


    Open your mouth pompously in return for something different than Alan had imagined. And soon, oh, I remember that this guy was Tiara Rose, who loved Sweets and her sister.


    Well, then, you must want to make the best cake.


    "Of course! With Tiara Rose, we''re going to make the nicest cake in the world."


    Tiara Rose nods over and over to Alan, who grips her fist all the time.


    But there is one problem. That''s about Tiara Rose''s health. Although the obstruction is not that heavy, it is not when you are told you are in good health.


    Tiara Rose turns her gaze to Aquasteed, who sits next to her, to see how things are going.


    "Philine''s wedding is a month before her due date, so if it''s true, I definitely want you to rest..."


    "Yes... right"


    To Aquasteed''s words, Tiara Rose hangs out as soon as possible.


    I know exactly what you''re saying, and I''m going to attend the ceremony. I''ll accept it as soon as I don''t have a pregnancy, but it''s just not a good time.


    But Aquasteed also knows that Tiara Rose cares about Filine, and I know exactly how that feels.


    "If you promise not to push me and leave all the work to the cook... I will allow it. Tiara''s in the best shape for me."


    "Dear Aqua...... Thank you!


    When Filine''s wedding cake can be made, Tiara Rose makes her face shine. That smile is so cute, it always spoils Aquasteed.


    But - I waited from Filine, who was sitting across the street, but it took me.


    "Dear Tiara Rose, I am very, very happy with your feelings, though! Exactly a month before the due date, don''t do that."


    "So, but! Dear Aqua, please allow me..."


    "What do you do if you can''t and something happens to your body? Wow, that doesn''t make me feel safe getting married..."


    "Filine......"


    To words that care for themselves, Tiara Rose stuffs words.


    Sure, if you do something that you can''t do, there''s a lot of annoyance around you. Furthermore, Filine will regret that it was her fault.


    - But I want to make Filine''s cake, too.


    When Tiara Rose was worried about what to do, Alan thought of an alternative.


    "Then how about if Dear Tiara Rose is painted with ingredients and cake design paintings? I''m going to use that as a basis to make a recipe."


    If that''s all, I can work while sitting down, and I don''t have a lot of work.


    Plus, it even follows the pleasure of waiting excitedly for the cake you can do. What a nice idea, a storm of applause in my heart.


    "I will! You don''t mind if I do? Filine."


    When Tiara Rose asks happily, Filine is pushed a little by the momentum.


    ''Cause I can''t help it. Filine loves to talk about Tiara Rose, serving from a small place...... Because they say they want to celebrate themselves.


    "... ok. But don''t you think about design paintings when you''re feeling better?


    "Yes, of course. I wouldn''t do anything to worry Philine."


    Tiara Rose looked at Filine and smiled, "I promise," she said.


    From then on, I packed the details of Filine''s wedding cake on a good day.


    But the cake design painting never bothered me that much. Because of this, I decided to go with the dress design.


    It''s a total lace with a floral pattern, so I plan on getting a lace-like decoration with raw cream to go with it.


    - Fine, so it may be pretty difficult...


    I''m sure Tiara Rose believes Alan would make a good one.


    "I wonder what fruit to use for the cake. I definitely want to be there, so other than that..."


    Tiara Rose thinks it would be difficult to throw away the luxury of using only the wax.


    However, if it is designed to look like a lace, it is sometimes done with less fruit on the cake to make it a stylish design.


    Instead, keep plenty of fruit in the sponge.


    "... nice, nice!


    More and more cake designs can be made in Tiara Rose''s brain, so she draws it up on paper.


    The cake is made into three steps, the bottom step is decorated with a pedestal, and the decoration is drawn with raw cream to lace.


    The second step draws a face with chocolate on a raven inspired by a fairy.


    At the top step, cut the cubes to make rose flowers and cover the white chocolate with laced solidification like a vale.


    "... it''s become quite a difficult design."


    Think about that for yourself, but I get anxious that it will really be okay. Would you prefer a slightly more modest design?


    Raw cream is good, but it''s hard if you''re not used to white chocolate finishing. Besides, that''s all the more so because it puts it on like a vale...


    Nevertheless, I can''t help thinking alone. All you have to do is talk to Alan about this tomorrow and decide.


    "It''s time to go to bed..."


    Check the clock, it''s past ten o''clock at night.


    After I get pregnant, Aquasteed scolds me for staying up late. Aquasteed of the day, though he hasn''t come back yet.


    Tiara Rose falls asleep in bed, takes a slow, deep breath and relaxes. Caress your stomach gently and sing a song so your baby can sleep safely.


    "Shake the cradle of flowers and sleep in the good boy ? The fairy of the woods will put a leaf futon on, the fairy of the sea will babysit the tone with coral instruments, and the fairy of the sky will have a safe night''s visit ~"


    I hardly had a chance to play a babysitter until I got pregnant. I''ve been taught Marine Forest babysitting songs lately, so I often do that.


    Anyone who lives in Marine Forest knows that the fairies are songs that put children to sleep.


    When Tiara Rose was finished, the applause reached her ear.


    "Huh?"


    "I miss that babysitter."


    "Dear Aqua! When did you come home... I had no idea..."


    Shameful to be seen, Tiara Rose dives into the bed.


    "If it''s Tiara''s singing, it''s as much as I''d like to hear all the time. Not just for this kid, but for me, too?


    That said, Aquasteed also followed Tiara Rose into the bed.


    She held me gently and said, "No?," he whispers gently in his ear.


    "No¡­ but not"


    Give up that you''ve been caught, and Tiara Rose hugs Aquasteed all the time. Fluffy, smells like shampoo.


    "But I''d also like to hear Master Aqua''s babysitting song."


    "Mine?


    To Tiara Rose''s words, I think Aquasteed rarely had a chance to play the song when it came to that.


    Is that how much I wanted to be with my mother when I was little?


    "... then shall I join you"


    "Together, is it?


    "Yeah. When this kid''s born, shall I join you?


    To Aquasteed''s suggestion, Tiara Rose said, "Nice!," he nodded with a smile. If we both sing, I''m sure the baby will be relieved.


    - One more thing I''ve enjoyed since I was born.


    I want to see you soon.


    With that in mind, Tiara Rose fell asleep with Aquasteed.

 142 7. Philine and Elliots Wedding

    With a week to go until Filine''s wedding, preparations were steadily under way.


    Today the four of us gathered in the royal castle, Tiara Rose, Acari, Olivia and Alan, for the final confirmation of our wedding dress and cake.


    Philine, along with Elliot, is absent from the scene because she is having a final meeting.


    "Look! Give me this beautiful finish...... Huh!


    Ba ''an and Olivia showed us a beautiful wedding dress with total lace. It is knitted in a floral pattern and has a sea-through neck and a combination of colours.


    We also have accessories and tiaras to match the design, so all we have to do is wait for the production.


    "Ah, already, it''s great! Dear Olivia!!"


    Akari is happy to let go and wonders if it will be the same day soon.


    "Elliot is a dick too for this!


    "Dear Acari! How dare you say that in front of Master Alan!!"


    I don''t know, Tiara Rose rushes to pay attention to Akali''s words. Alan shook his head as he blushed.


    "Oh, I''m sorry. Hey! Eh heh."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly that she has absolutely no reflection on the cute, pero laughing acari. The finish of the dress is fine, so you should move on to the subject of cake.


    "Dear Alan, would you like some cake?


    "Yes! We''ve got the best!! Please try it"


    When I gave the signal, the maid pushed a wagon with a wedding cake on it for a few people.


    It''s about a meter tall and very powerful. But then, the cake itself is beautifully crafted with a delicate design.


    Whether viewing from afar or nearby, you will enjoy a different awesomeness.


    "I think I did what the design painting did, how about it? Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Dear Alan...... Very nice finish. The chocolate is beautifully made, and the lace painted with raw cream is finer than I imagined."


    No problem, Tiara Rose decides.


    "Great......! Thank you, Dear Tiara Rose!!"


    "Welcome, thank you. Alan''s cake is amazing."


    But because I saw that luxurious wedding cake, something sickening and disgusting comes up in Tiara Rose. It''s an obstacle.


    "Dear Tiara Rose! Dear Acari, please open the window!


    "Ha, ha!!"


    Soon Olivia supports Tiara Rose and whispers her back. Akali, who was given instructions, ran to the window.


    Alan doesn''t know what to do, and he looks worried and horny.


    Speaking of Tiara Rose, I self-loathe that she annoyed me because she revealed the finished cake.


    "Are you all right? Dear Tiara,"


    "Excuse me...... Looks like we''ve got a little bit of an obstacle."


    I smile because I''ll settle down after a while.


    "I''m sorry, Master Alan. You''d be surprised, wouldn''t you?


    "Ah...... no. I can''t help you with anything, and I''m sorry. I''ve seen my mother suffer from evil, but even then I don''t know what to do..."


    It''s incompetent as a man, Alan says.


    But soon Olivia denies it.


    "That''s not true, Master Alan. All you have to do is worry about your wife and stay on your side. Touch your back, or ask for your request. I''m sure you''ll be comfortable with that."


    If Aquasteed did have me on his side in Olivia''s words that we could just be together, I don''t think that would make me feel any easier.


    Clams also nod and say, "I''m with you when I''m sick I miss one ~".


    "Yes, I''ll carve it in my heart so I don''t forget!


    "Master Alan is going to be a good husband! It''s not weird at your age or having a fianc¨¦e."


    "Uh... right"


    Alan smiles bitterly at Akari''s words and mutters, "I''ll talk to you..."


    "Is that also why you don''t want to get engaged?


    "... now, the sweets business is fun. You can''t really think about your own engagement or anything, can you? When I was in school, well... I was the eldest son of a baron with no money, so I didn''t have a good engagement story."


    Now that the business is on track, he said there have also been several offers for engagement. But he really wants to prioritize the business, and Alan can''t seem to get on with the engagement.


    The three Tiara Roses, Acari and Olivia are all bothered Uh-huh.


    Honestly, knowing Japan... at Alan''s age, a man gets married fast, I think. Nevertheless, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed married in XVII......


    "I don''t think so," Olivia tells him quietly.


    "Dear Alan, the value is going up and up. So don''t panic right now, I think it''s a good idea to look at your house."


    "Dear Olivia...... thank you. I feel a little easier."


    Now focusing solely on the business, Alan looked good.


    Sometimes Tiara Rose was the first business she proposed, and worried that it would add up to Alan and he couldn''t get married, but apparently that was an extra favor.


    - I''m glad Master Alan seemed to enjoy it.


    "Well... it looks like Tiara Rose''s addition and subtraction have improved, so please excuse me."


    "What, you haven''t eaten the cake yet!?"


    Alan''s words are hurried when Akari waits and waits. Olivia looked at it with a frightened eye, but "Because ~" Acari shrugged like a puppy.


    "Taste is what I push my heartbeat, so be sure to eat it for real. I just wanted to make a few more improvements."


    "Improvement, is it?


    When I see the cake wondering if Tiara Rose would have had any problems, Alan makes me lower the cake saying "I shouldn''t".


    "Would you allow me to put my hands on Dear Tiara Rose''s proposed design?


    "Of course it is. Looking forward to the day of the ceremony."


    "Yes! Now, I beg your pardon here"


    Alan carefully folded his hips and left the room.


    - I wonder what kind of cake it will be.


    I haven''t eaten it but just saw it and found it to be a very complete wedding cake.


    The quality of the bamboo was very good, and the raw cream looked very tasty.


    But if Alan wanted to improve for his sister, Filine, he would surely be able to do better.


    And on the day of the wedding.


    The wedding of Filine and Elliot takes place in a small diocese.


    Neither of us have that many aristocrats to be so cordial about, so neither are so many invitees.


    Tiara Roses To the usual members, Acari, Olivia. Two parents, a coworker, and some friends.


    The Tiara Roses are sitting in their seats waiting to begin now or now. Aquasteed, who saw it, laughs, "Calm down".


    "I''m kind of very nervous... I''d like to see Filine soon"


    "Right, I''m glad Elliot has consolidated himself, too. How emotional..."


    That said, Aquasteed turns his hand around Tiara Rose''s hips and gently hugs her.


    The marriage of Filine and Elliot would not have been possible had Tiara Rose and Aquasteed not been married.


    Something that Tiara Rose would not have done without an irregular that she was a villain''s warrant, that Halt Nights would have broken her engagement, and yet Aquasteed would have proposed to her.


    What is more like an overlapping fate is like a miracle.


    Otherwise, Filine could have been forced to marry Lucas by now


    - I''m glad you''re a villain''s lady.


    Maybe it''s because Tiara Rose was a villain''s warrant, two people tied together. That makes me feel extremely impressed even though the ceremony hasn''t started yet.


    "Ah! No more, if you cry. The ceremony hasn''t started yet."


    An acari sitting next to me to the right wipes Tiara Rose''s eyes with a handkerchief. Aquasteed was also surprised, gently rubbing Tiara Rose''s back.


    "If I greet you with a crying face, you''ll worry about Filine."


    "Right...... Thank you, Dear Aqua, Dear Acari"


    When Tiara Rose smiled, she used healing magic with her hands on her eyes where the clams turned red.


    "Mmm, that''s just it!


    "Thank you"


    Even more embarrassing that she had now cried, Tiara Rose thanked her with a lit grin.


    Light plunges through a stained glass window on the ceiling, and harsh music plays into the cathedral. It''s a signal for the bride and groom to enter.


    From the door of two dioceses, Philine and Elliott, respectively, show themselves.


    Filine dressed in pure white and holding a blue bouquet in her hand.


    The fine total lace wedding dress makes the pure filine look sacred. The long lane looks very much like a thumbing blue virgin road.


    Dressed in tuxedos designed to go with Filine, Elliot. I thought I was nervous, but it was riddled with a very calm atmosphere.


    Walking to the point where Virgin Road intersects, he smiles and escorts to Filine.


    "Wow..."


    Once again I was so impressed, tears flooded Tiara Rose''s eyes. Even Filine was crying with joy at Tiara Rose''s wedding, so I''m sure she''ll be fine.


    Watch the two ceremonies as they hold their eyes with a handkerchief.


    The Blue Virgin Road turns white when the two paths cross. The thought of dyeing the rest of our lives with the colors of both of us...


    When the priest utters the word of blessing, it is a ring vow from the bride to the bride.


    In this world, there is no exchange of wedding rings.


    The groom gives magic to the ring, and the bride returns her magic. I will be with you for the rest of my life¡­.


    I can connect with something much deeper than just the vow words on the upper side.


    Elliot kneels before Philine and puts a ring on her left hand pharmacopoeia. And mouth it gently, I swear love.


    "Philine. I will love and protect you all my life"


    "... Yes. I will always love you and support you next door."


    Philine taps Elliot''s forehead and carves the magic. Now the two become a genuine couple.


    Elliot gets up and smiles lightly.


    It''s been a riddled look until now, apparently because the tension was getting through the top.


    "After all, it calms me down when I''m with Filine"


    "Elliot..."


    Filine chuckles and closes her eyes.


    Elliot touches Philine''s vale and gives it politely. The revealed Filine''s face was reddish and slightly tearful.


    Oh, beautiful...


    I fall in love, and Elliot''s time just stops for a moment.


    "... eh, philline"


    Slowly, touch the treasure.


    But the unstoppable fever was also in Elliot. I''m sure we stared at each other for, like, a few seconds, no, it could have been shorter.


    Because the more I realized, the more I could not help but scorch, and I was speaking to Filine.


    As Elliot and Philine kiss, the applause of blessings boils down from the attendees.


    Be happy for the new couple.


    After the ceremony in the diocese, a reception was held.


    That said, it''s just something to enjoy a meal, not something to do as grandiose as Japan.


    The main thing, of course, is a wedding cake devised by Tiara Rose and created by Alan.


    "Wah."


    Tiara Rose sees an improved wedding cake and gives an exclamation.


    The basic parts are the same, but the design around the foundation had changed only slightly. A round piece of jelly was filled with cuts in the shape of a rose. Sure, it''s much more gorgeous and beautiful than just the violin.


    Acari and Olivia, who were next door, also shine their eyes on the cake that came out.


    "Wow, nice! I want to eat fast!"


    "This is a wedding cake filled with Alan''s thoughts on Philine and Tiara Rose!


    Listening to Olivia, Alan cares about herself and realizes that she has prepared a rose jelly for me.


    - Because when I was evil, I said I could only eat jelly.


    I guess that''s why you added jelly to your wedding cake.


    Making improvements from the finished cake must have been tough. Tiara Rose is delighted with Alan''s care and tears eyes again.


    "My tear glands are already loose today..."


    "It''s okay, Tiara. Would you like some cake with me?


    "... no"


    Just a little bit of cake, and I''ll have some jelly too. I was worried the obstruction would still be terrible today, but I cried. It seems a little calm. Good health.


    I think that rose jelly is beautiful and I can''t eat it.


    Smells like sweet walnuts and a touch of misty jelly. Since I first taught him how to make sweets, Alan impresses me that it''s something he''s put up quite a bit.


    "Yummy......!


    As Tiara Rose eats with a full grin, Aquasteed stares at her.


    "Oh, Master Aqua?


    "No... eat happily, think you''re cute"


    The moment I was told, my Tiara Rose turned red.


    "Isn''t it hard to eat when you say that..."


    "I''m sorry, I''m sorry."


    To Aquasteed who tells him to eat without worrying, Tiara Rose fans her cheeks with her hands when she cares.


    "It''s delicious, so try Aqua too. It''s a cake that Alan has made improvements to until the end."


    "Right."


    As I enjoyed the cake with Aquasteed, Filine and Elliot came.


    "Philine, Elliot! Happy marriage."


    "Congratulations, both of you"


    When Tiara Rose and Aquasteed state their words of celebration, they smile happily "Thank you".


    "We will continue to serve Elliot and the two of you, Dear Tiara Rose and His Majesty Aquasteed, in good faith"


    "The only reason Philine and I were able to travel together was because of Aquasteed."


    "You don''t have to worry about us till our wedding day anymore..."


    "No, because to me, Master Tiara Rose is very important."


    Tiara Rose is also attached to Filine, who tells her in tears in her eyes. He said he could eat the cake and pull in tears because of it.


    Akali, who was looking at those two, said, "Look, let''s laugh!" and comes into the conversation.


    "Because today Filine is the happiest bride in the world!


    "Right. Philine''s smile is the best thing in the world."


    Asked by Acari and Tiara Rose, Filine nodded and smiled.


    "Yes. Thank you, Dear Tiara Rose, Dear Acari!

 143 8. Restless Men

    A month had passed since Filine''s wedding, and around Tiara Rose, she showed calm - on the contrary, there was a rushing day with just a few moments to go before giving birth.


    The mansion Elliott got was finished with care and loading furniture, but I don''t know when Tiara Rose''s labor pains will start...... so Filine still lives in her own room in Royal Castle.


    I''m worried about this, Tiara Rose, but Elliot seems to be looking forward to having a child, and equally still lives in the Royal Castle''s own room.


    Aquasteed, who managed to clean up the paperwork that was in the mountains, stretches all the way.


    As a result of reviewing and streamlining work to increase time on Tiara Rose''s side, most people who work for the Royal Castle, not just Aquasteed, have reduced their working hours.


    "I''ll make some tea, shall we take a break? You''re going to be able to do your job for tomorrow, right?


    "Right, please"


    I''m in the middle of working as far forward as possible so that whenever I can get labor pains to Tiara Rose.


    As Elliot was about to brew some tea and prepare something for a snack, the office door opened up momentously shortly after the sound of running down the hallway with tremendous momentum.


    For a visit with nothing like a knock, Elliot stood up and said, "Who is it?" and roughing up his voice.


    "Ha, ha... it''s me... eh"


    "" Tarmo!? "


    Running in out of breath was Tarmo, a Tiara Rose escort knight.


    Silver-haired short hair with a rough body. Puppet Quiet and seldom talk, always refraining from stepping back from Tiara Rose.


    That''s how he rushed into the office.


    There''s only one reason.


    "Tiara!


    Tarmo nodded quickly as Aquasteed raised his voice.


    "Yes! The labor pains have begun!! The doctors are now hitting the response......!


    "I''ll be on my way!


    Aquasteed, along with Tarmo and Elliot, jumped out of the office and headed under Tiara Rose.


    When I went to Tiara Rose''s room, she looked painfully asleep on the bed.


    "Tiara!"


    "Ha, ha... Aqua, sama...?


    Tiara Rose reaches out and responds to Aquasteed''s voice as she breathes incessantly.


    Holding that hand tightly, he calls his name "Tiara" again and again.


    "How can I not help Tiara who seems so bitter..."


    He wants to give you that pain on behalf of him if he can, and that''s what he thinks. But Tiara Rose shakes her head slowly.


    "I''m fine...... I will have a healthy baby, Dear Aqua... Aqua, wait for me... Ha, no.... right?


    "... Tiara''s strong"


    Aquasteed nods forcefully when he sees Tiara Rose, who is already ready to be a mother.


    Unfortunately for me, I can only wait.


    As Aquasteed held his hand, the room glowed and three fairy kings arrived.


    "Sounds painful...... are you sure you''re okay?


    "More sparkle, Tiara!


    "Both of you, calm down a little."


    Once here, Pearl puts Keith and Katsu worried about watching the spicy Tiara Rose. Claire takes them out of the room.


    "Until we''re born, we better wait outside"


    Tiara Rose laughs at the three fairy kings who quickly left. Though I didn''t exchange words at all, I''m glad you came.


    "Ugh! There he is!!"


    "Tiara!?"


    You were relieved that the Aquasteeds were here, and Tiara Rose''s labor pain accelerated at once.


    Tiara Rose doesn''t seem to be able to afford to tell Aquasteed she''s okay anymore.


    The doctors will be here soon, and they''ll be ready for the birth.


    "Your Majesty, we have a room next door. Please wait there."


    "... ok. Good luck, Tiara."


    "Ah... ah, yes, aqua..."


    I sent Yale to Tiara Rose, who calls her name hard, and Aquasteed left the room behind.


    How long has it been since Tiara Rose''s labor pain began? Two hours? Three hours? No, about five hours?


    "It''s only thirty minutes," Elliot grins bitterly at Aquasteed walking around the room restlessly.


    "... I know"


    "Still thirty minutes!? I feel like another year or so..."


    But Aquasteed isn''t the only one wandering around the room, so is Keith. Two restless men are walking in a groovy room.


    "Dear Aquasteed, Dear Keith, let''s sit down and wait. Produce seems to take a while¡­"


    "Tiara''s trying, but you can''t just sit and wait for me"


    "I can''t, sit down and do what!?"


    Yeah, Elliot understands that these two can''t seem to say anything.


    In the meantime, it''s Pearl and Claire who are gracefully drinking tea.


    Claire in particular seems happy to be able to make pearls and tea, and she also bakes her favorite care.


    "You guys...... you''re so calm often"


    "You''re just too restless, Keith. Why don''t you take a tapioca milk tea and calm down?


    In that state from now on, Pearl laughs that she will be exhausted at birth.


    Then take a seat and hold the shoulder of the person who was sitting heavily on the couch by the window.


    "He''s got a lot more liver."


    "Ah... no, I can''t believe it"


    It was Darrell, Tiara Rose''s brother-in-law, who rushed from Lapis Lazuli, who raised his voice to Pearl''s words.


    Because the healing power is so strong, it keeps me from doing this for when something happens.


    "Tiara, I just pray that your sister can give birth safely...... Oh, of course, if you need anything, I''ll rush right away!


    Darrell Lapis Klamentir, a cute brother-in-law who prays for her sister-in-law.


    Light watery eyes and gentle blue eyes. He wears a white dress with a bow around his neck.


    He''s a pretty six-year-old boy with tremendous healing power.


    "Speaking of which, I still haven''t said hello. Wrinkles are pearls. Are you Tiara''s brother?


    "Yes. My name is Darrell Lapis Klamentir. Best regards, everyone"


    Though we had a light meeting at first, the greeting became now because everyone was twitching. Finish greeting Keith and Claire, including Pearl.


    She''s calm. When she saw Darrell, Aquasteed shook her head gently.


    - Don''t worry about Tiara if I''m in such a hurry from now on.


    Take a cup of tea prepared by Aquasteed as well so that you can remain calm. Sitting right next to Darrell, trying to talk about something...... I realize.


    "Speaking of which, what about your stepfather and stepmother?


    My mother, Iltiana, maybe accompanies Tiara Rose. Philine also helps Tiara Rose give birth.


    But that''s not how Schnaus, a man parent, would do that. It is also inconceivable that I have not refrained from taking care of my daughter.


    To Aquasteed''s inquiry, Darrell showed a troubled face.


    "Mother, Tiara, is at your sister''s. Your father..."


    "Yeah?"


    Darrell said, Keith and the others also said, "What''s going on?" and see Darrell.


    "Uh, maybe... outside the door"


    "Outside?"


    When we all tilted our necks and looked at the door, Elliot opened it for me. Then there was Schnaus, who was coming and going down the hallway in an unsettled manner.


    Like Aquasteed and Keith, he was restless and seemed to be walking around all the time.


    "This is for everyone!!"


    As soon as I saw this one, Schnaus came indoors.


    Schnaus Lapis Klamentir, father of Tiararose.


    In the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli, he is about the status of Prime Minister, and he is still young in his early forties.


    Is it my wife, daughter and son Love, as you can see?


    "No, you shouldn''t... I''m so restless"


    "I understand. But being in the hallway could get in the way of the doctors... please go inside"


    "Right."


    He nodded at Aquasteed''s words and Schnaus also came indoors. And soon, I finally bow my head.


    "... I didn''t know the fairy kings were in full swing"


    "You should take it easy"


    Speaking on behalf of Keith, Schnaus took his seat thanking him only once more.


    I thought the conversation would also play with some of the humans waiting for Tiara Rose to give birth...... there would be heavy silence indoors.


    Especially the men look at the walls in the direction of the next room while everyone twitches except for Crail.


    "Oh, boy."


    Pearl shrugged her shoulders and the door opened just in time.


    "Dear Tiara, the labor pain has begun!?"


    "Dear Acari, please calm down!


    "We''re both in enough panic..."


    It is Acari, Olivia and Sirius who have said that. Everyone seems to have heard that Tiara Rose''s labor pain has begun.


    "We''re all here! No. - Could we be the last?


    I take my seat, saying that the acari is in a hurry.


    Olivia thanked the lady and Sirius greeted her politely.


    Seeing more tense clams than usual, Aquasteed laughs bitterly.


    "It''s kind of disturbing to have Miss Acari..."


    "Huh? Really? Eh heh, glad ~"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I''m not complimenting him on anything, but now he can''t afford to hang out with this tension, so Aquasteed decided to shut up with a social grin.


    Darrell rises to greet Olivia and Sirius.


    It was Sirius who immediately noticed Darrell.


    "Oh, you''re the one that said the Marquis of Clementil adopted him. I''m Sirius Lapis, Lazuli Lactomut."


    Olivia Ariadel.


    When he sees the two of them greet him, Darrell breaks his hips deeply.


    "This is the first time I''ve seen you, Darrell Lapis Klamentir. Best regards,"


    The next king of Lapis Lazuli is determined to be Sirius. In the near future, there may be a future in which Darrell becomes Sirius'' right arm.


    After a soothing greeting, the room is wrapped in a tingly air.


    "- Huh!?"


    It was like feeling the swing of the air, and everyone stood up aggressively. What is this, and before someone screams - I heard healthy production coming from next door.


    And at the same time, the wall bordering the next room blew up with a blast of flames.

 144 9. Loved Princess

    "Uh-huh, uh-huh."


    I desperately repeated my "hi-hi-hoo" breath and endured the pain - the production of a voice that reached Tiara Rose''s ear.


    Moment after moment, a new breeze swept through everything that hurt.


    Breathing is still painful, my eyes are ticklish and my vision uncertain. Still, somehow I let my gaze get lost in search of the baby I had.


    "Huh."


    - Me and Master Aqua''s... baby...


    I''ve always wanted to see you.


    Looking forward to the day I can see you, wanting to sing, read a picture book, take a break myself and feel like a nap with you......


    I can finally see you like that.


    - Come on, I want to see your face.


    Then the doctor who immediately took the baby up came to me beside him.


    "Baby......"


    "Dear Tiara Rose, lovely princess -"


    But before the doctor could finish, the baby''s magic suddenly swelled. Perhaps getting out of the womb made it harder to control magic.


    A big flame appeared in front of the baby, rumbled and destroyed the walls of the room - blew it up!


    "What the hell!!"


    The walls blew up with a blast of flames and it was Pearl with excellent defense who responded instantly. With the power of the sea, he bounded the waters and received the collapsed walls.


    All intact on this side, but the problem is with the Tiara Roses, who were giving birth. Aquasteed runs right out and goes from the destroyed wall to the next room.


    "Tiara!!"


    "... Huh, my... baby!


    When Aquasteed jumped into the room, Tiara Rose was desperately awake to receive the baby from the doctor.


    But there''s a flame around the baby, not very much, but not in a holding state.


    I need immediate help. The moment Aqua reached out - from around the baby, the flames went out.


    "What''s going on!?"


    Taking Tiara Rose, who is about to fall into bed with a flutter, Aquasteed strokes her chest down with relief.


    I''m still breathing on my shoulder looking painful, but Tiara Rose and the baby are safe.


    "Ha, ha, Dear Aqua... I''m fine now"


    Following Tiara Rose''s gaze, the baby''s fingers were fitted with a "guard ring" and an "attack ring".


    - Well, was Tiara desperately trying to put this on?


    I let the ring suck the magic that was about to run wild, and it looks like I got nothing. But it seems that Totally Tiara Rose has run out of health.


    After I did the big thing of giving birth, I guess that''s natural, too.


    "Thank you, Tiara. I need you to be safe."


    "... Yes"


    Seeing a baby who sleeps easily, Tiara Rose smiles fuzzily. I''m happy and happy, and I guess there''s nothing I can do.


    Tiara Rose slowly reaches out to Aquasteed, who looks lovingly at herself and her baby.


    "Tiara?"


    Aquasteed took Tiara Rose''s hand and said, "What''s wrong?" He asks me gently.


    "Give your baby a name"


    "Oh... you did"


    Aquasteed laughs bitterly that he was inadvertently at the birth of a new life and a sudden outburst of magic.


    Aquasteed slowly hugs the baby and smiles.


    "You''re a good kid, you''re sleeping comfortably... She looks like Tiara, she''s a very pretty girl."


    Stroking her slightly growing forehead, Aquasteed kisses her gently on the forehead. It is the birth of a princess, the number one successor to the throne of Marine Forest.


    "Give this child the name of Lucia Rose, like a glowing flower forever"


    Hearing the name Aquasteed gave me, Tiara Rose is overflowing with tears. I was also glad that you put in a rose that sounded the same as yourself.


    Luciarose Marine Forest, an angelic child who sleeps comfortably.


    The slightly growing forehead is a little darker pink than Tiara Rose. The eyes I saw at birth were golden honey pink.


    A lovely princess, similar to Tiara Rose. I''ll be in charge of the upcoming marine forest, princess.


    Aquasteed finds the clail he was watching right there and calls his name.


    "Claire, it''s me and Tiara."


    "Hehe, you''re adorable. I''m glad I look like my mother. From the Fairy King of the Skies, Claire, let us bless you. - Don''t let malice taint you."


    Then a gentle breeze poured down the particles of light that glittered on Lucia Rose. It''s a blessing, from the Fairy King of the Skies, Claire.


    Tiara Rose is moved by the mysterious sight.


    But to such a sacred atmosphere, "Ah!" and two dissenting voices.


    "You, how dare you run out on your own!! You were talking about me blessing the best!


    "Claire! The same woman, my best blessing!


    Yes, Keith and Pearl.


    We both want to bless ourselves the most, and I''m about to regret it.


    "Keith, I didn''t promise you that. Pearl... because I am the first fairy king to give a blessing to Aquasteed... sorry"


    Keith seems unconvinced by Claire''s words and obstinate, but Pearl had no choice but to pull out his shoulder strength.


    Besides, Aquasteed was the first to call his name because it was Claire.


    "I don''t have a choice. It was only later that I gave you my blessing... Lucia Rose, let us bless you from Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea. You seem to have a strong fire power, so let''s make it easier to handle it by strengthening the power of water."


    A small blister broke out and pearl blessings poured down on Lucia Rose. From now on, he made it easier to handle the magic that would have grown.


    "Thank you. Dear Claire, Pearl"


    "I''m so glad to have Lucia Rose blessed as well. Thank you, Dear Claire, Dear Pearl."


    It would be nice if Aquasteed and Tiara Rose thanked the two of them - and one fairy king, Keith, seemed to be stubborn.


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly, but wonders what''s wrong.


    I can''t change order now because I''ve already blessed him, and he''s certainly the first one who was blessing Aquasteed, as Claire said.


    "Ki, Keith?


    Calling his approximate name, Keith came under Tiara Rose, even as he became infidel. Watch Aquasteed hold Lucia Rose and gently touch her little hand.


    "You''re so small, you''re gonna break it"


    Pompous and squeaky, Keith smiled when she saw the lovely Lucia Rose. The Tiara Roses are relieved by their expressions full of charity.


    "The baby is cute. Keith, why don''t you give us your blessings soon!


    When Pearl hurries, Keith turns away.


    "Nothing, you two have enough blessings. The fairies in the woods are blessed, and that''s fine."


    Looks like Keith wanted to give the blessing the most than anyone could have imagined.


    When Tiara Rose saw Aquasteed, she laughed bitterly that she had no choice. I know I''m sorry, because Aquasteed also wanted to show Claire her daughter first, who had always protected herself.


    Pearl said, "The vessel''s small!," he says to Keith, "but Tiara Rose goes in to stop" please wait ".


    "I know Keith thinks sincerely of us. Because I''m happy enough with that feeling."


    "You know damn well, Tiara. Right... if Lucia grows up and becomes the princess she deserves to give me my blessing - then I''ll give her the blessing of the forest in a grand way"


    Hearing that reply, I think Tiara Rose is just a freedom-loving forest fairy.


    "Yes. If Lucia Rose becomes a fine lady, then give Keith''s blessing"


    "Oh."


    It''s a promise - and Tiara Rose and Keith smiled.


    Then he moved the place to Tiara Rose''s own room and revealed Lucia Rose to everyone.


    A bed that sleeps easily is a cradle of flowers made by the fairies in the woods. Bedmerry, made of coral by the fairies of the sea, plays a cool sound with sharalah. The fairies in the sky are rocking the cradle of flowers and spinning the coral bedmery with the power of the wind.


    The adults around them dust when they see how cute the fairies are.


    But only one person was crying.


    "Oh, oh, sweetie. Lucia Rose, that''s a very good name......!


    Lucia Rose was born and became a grandfather, it''s Schnaus. My grandson is so cute, I''ve always been impressed beside the crib.


    "If I were your father... I''d be ashamed..."


    When Tiara Rose tells him as he lies down, Iltiana, who was on his side, follows Schnaus, "I have no choice," he said.


    "All this time, I''ve been looking forward to having Tiara''s child. The mansion has been completely remodeled so you can come and see me whenever you want."


    He''s a troubled grandfather - and Iltiana smiles.


    But opposite Schnaus, Olivia, who held her nose in a handkerchief, was staring at the baby inadvertently.


    "Oh, he''s so cute. How lucky I am to be able to see the birth of the Princess of Marine Forest......! Dear Tiara Rose, I really congratulate you!!"


    "Thank you, Master Olivia"


    Next to Olivia, Acari and Sirius also look at Lucia Rose, grinning at her cute cutie.


    "Ha - cute! Babies smell so good. Hot and fluffy, with all your skin!"


    "Dear Acari, if you make so much noise, Master Lucia Rose will wake up."


    "Huh."


    When they all loved each other the whole way, Alexander and Lavina came too. Aquasteed''s parents, former kings and queens of this country.


    I greeted him lightly and the two of them immediately looked at Lucia Rose.


    "I''m sorry I''m late. This is a lovely princess. Congratulations, both of you."


    "Hehe, you look like Aqua in the eye. Congratulations."


    "Thank you"


    This one seems very happy with his first grandson and he smiles all the time.


    And I do think Tiara Rose, as Lavina said, has a similar eye area to Aquasteed.


    - Looking forward to growing.


    "We''re going to get tired of staying too long, so this is it. I''ll be back to see your face."


    "Yes. Thank you, Father."


    Nodding at Aquasteed''s reply, Alexander looks at Schnaus and Irtiana.


    "If you like, would you like some tea with me? Let''s blossom into a cute Lucia Rose story."


    "Oh, that''s good. We''d love to be with you!


    The parents seemed to have tea together and watched Lucia Rose again before leaving the room behind. I''m sure it''ll be fun and exciting to talk about my grandson.


    "Then we''ll be free, too. You''ll be back, Dear Tiara Rose."


    "Rest easy, Dear Tiara!


    "Thank you, Dear Acari, Dear Olivia"


    They all left the room, with only three in the room: Tiara Rose and Aquasteed, then Lucia Rose.


    I hear exhales that seem easy and pleasant, and oh, I realize again that I was really born.


    Aquasteed looks at Lucia Rose''s sleeping face and then sits down by the bedside.


    "You''re tired, aren''t you? Shall we take a break? Lucia''s fine because I''m watching."


    "... Yes. Thank you, Master Aqua."


    "Yeah. Good night, Tiara"


    Tiara Rose fell asleep quickly, as her strength was still severely depleted. The sleeping face looks somewhere like Lucia Rose, Aquasteed thinks.


    Gently stroking Tiara Rose''s head, Aquasteed mumbled a slow babysitting song.

 145 10. The Power of Salamander

    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed mornings often began with the cry of Lucia Rose.


    "Uh-huh."


    "Hmm... in the morning?


    Tiara Rose then gets out of bed and hugs Lucia Rose, who is crying in a basket of flowers.


    "All right, well, get up early today. Morning, Lucia."


    When you kiss your cheeks with a good boy and a good girl, Lucia Rose immediately smiles like a flower.


    "Ah."


    The smile on my face is very soothing to watch.


    "The princess is in a good mood today."


    "Dear Aqua, have I woken you up? Still not asleep."


    I''m busy at work, so at least sleep...... and try to get Aquasteed back to bed. But he shakes his head and drops a kiss on Tiara Rose''s temple, "No, you can''t," he said.


    "Because I''m Lucia''s father, too. Let me stay with you. You miss being put to bed by yourself, don''t you?


    "Dear Aqua..."


    Escorted by Aquasteed, Tiara Rose sits on the couch.


    "I''ll put in some herbal tea, just wait a minute"


    "Thank you"


    "Ahhh."


    Sitting on the couch and giving up Lucia Rose makes me look like I''m having a lot of fun. Sometimes I cry in the middle of the night, but not so often.


    I''m growing up well and ticklish.... Though still a few days old.


    "When Lucia grows up and becomes a lady, we''ll have a tea party together."


    The three families, Tiara Rose thinks it might be a good idea to have tea in the rose garden. He says he''s just born, but he''s going to have a lot to look forward to and get in trouble.


    Playing with Lucia Rose, Aquasteed with herbal tea came back.


    "You''re welcome."


    "Thank you, Master Aqua"


    Leaning against Aquasteed''s shoulder sitting next to him, Tiara Rose shows Lucia Rose''s face.


    I think I''m smiling...... I''m tired or I''m falling asleep easily.


    "Oh..."


    "Babies say it''s their job to sleep, and they can''t help it."


    Now Aquasteed hugs Lucia Rose and puts her to sleep in the cradle of flowers. You seem so comfortable that you want to see it forever.


    "Are you all right?


    "Yeah. Don''t wake up, you''re sleeping with me. Good boy."


    Aquasteed came back next to Tiara Rose and included herbal tea in her mouth. I wanted to sleep a little, but I''m waking up.


    Speaking of which, I recall one thing we had to discuss properly.


    "Tiara, I mean Lucia..."


    "Yes?"


    "No, the magic of fire would be strong, wouldn''t it? I wonder why it''s fire."


    Sure, Tiara Rose also thinks I can''t think of any reason like this.


    Neither Tiara Rose nor Aquasteed have a high aptitude for the magic of fire. On the contrary, Tiara Rose did not originally have that much magic.


    Well, then, did my parents, or before that... have a highly qualified figure of fire in my ancestors? But no one comes to mind.


    "I don''t know...... why not?


    "No, did I just care too much? Nothing like the quality of magic is absolutely inherited."


    "I''m a child of Aqua, so I wouldn''t be surprised if you had great power, would I?


    He''s the main offensive child of the game, so he might be hiding a hell of a lot of power. I thought so, but that great magic wasn''t hidden already.


    "I''m just a little nervous to think about it if I can''t control more and more magic from now on."


    "Let''s make sure it doesn''t happen. I''ll check my magic every day so that if anything goes wrong, I can deal with it right away."


    "Yes, thank you, Master Aqua"


    Now if you could grow up quickly, that would be fine, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed smiled when they saw Lucia Rose.


    About a month after Lucia Rose was born, I received a single letter from Sandrose.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Dear Aqua, your face..."


    Tiara Rose smiles bitterly at Aquasteed, who sees the letter with a troublesome face.


    Maybe he''s wary that he''s officially offered Lucia Rose an engagement.


    Aquasteed opened the envelope with a paper knife and read the contents.


    "... His Majesty Salavia and Lady Salamander are coming soon to celebrate Lucia Rose"


    "Well."


    Tiara Rose laughs bitterly at Aquasteed, who is holding her head and sighing.


    This is going to be busy again.


    And a month after the letter, Saravia and the others came from Sandrose.


    Under Saravia in the reception room, Aquasteed shows his face. Then Saravia waved as she relaxed on the couch.


    "Long time no see, Aqua, kitten. There were so many pretty kids on the road, it was fun."


    "There really are a lot of fairies in this country."


    Saravia Sandrose is the one who feels more challenged than before.


    Golden hair and brown skin. Red eyes are like rubies, and majesty as kings.


    He is a young emperor of the Sandrose Empire, proud of his polygamy.


    Together is the Spirit of Fire Salamander.


    Red hair tied in a high position and eyes of the same color. Brown skin peeks through the highly exposed desert dress.


    She''s asleep if it''s supposed to be, but now she''s awake because she doesn''t have enough magic.


    "Well, where''s the kitten that''s going to be my daughter in the future?


    "Elliot, His Majesty Saravia is home."


    "Liar, even a joke! Don''t be ridiculous, Aqua!!"


    He was an aquasteed who tried to wish Saravia home soon willing to have Lucia Rose as his daughter-in-law, but he is categorically rejected.


    "This time it''s a pure celebration!


    "I chose them too, so they''re all first-class."


    With that said, Saravia shows Aquasteed the items of celebration she had brought into the reception room.


    A variety of things were available, including a desert rose amulet and jewels to pick at Sandrose and a small desert dress. They are all so stunning to keep an eye on.


    "Thank you, Your Majesty. Dear Salamander,"


    "For Aqua and Kitten, I took care of her. Let me do this."


    Suddenly Saravia dropped the tone of her voice and thanked her again, "I appreciate it.


    "If that''s the case, it''s done."


    "... Thankyou"


    As Aquasteed sat on the couch across from Saravia, the sound of the knock just sounded.


    "Oh, is she a kitten?


    Aquasteed rises, taking control of Saravia trying to stand up for the escort.


    "Come on, will you stop calling my wife a kitten?


    "Wow, I''m scared"


    "You''re still a good man!


    Aquasteed opens the door as he stares at the two Sandrose. There''s Tiara Rose, of course.


    He holds Lucia Rose in his arm, with Filine and Tarmo holding back behind him.


    "Tarmo asks for an indoor escort"


    "Yes."


    Aquasteed gave instructions and deposited Lucia Rose so that Tiara Rose could greet the Saravians.


    "It''s been a while. Sire Salavia, Dear Salamander"


    "Oh, it''s been a long time. I''d like to call you Kitten - but Aqua''s staring at me. Dear Tiara, but let me call you"


    "Long time no see. Looking good. Best of all."


    Softly greeting her, Saravia has just expressed her interest in Lucia Rose.


    "What''s your name?


    It''s Lucia Rose.


    "Lovely, nice. I''d love to be my wife in my country."


    It was Saravia, who asked Tiara Rose her name, but said something extra, so Aquasteed stared at her and said her mouth.


    "From now on, then, you''ll be considerate ahead, right?


    "... haha"


    Sometimes I think that in the future, Aquasteed is going to slash you away if you bring a guy as challenging as Saravia...


    Well, that''s what he says in his mouth and attitude, but Aquasteed puts Lucia Rose first, so he won''t do anything with his own greed alone.


    Salamander seems intrigued too, staring at Lucia Rose all the time. And I said a word, a hell of a thing.


    "Lucia Rose has my magic."


    "Huh?"


    Tiara Rose and Aquasteed open their mouths to words they had not expected at all.


    Sure, Lucia Rose had a strong fire magic power, but I never thought that was what came from Salamander.


    "What the hell do you mean, Dear Salamander"


    An aquasteed with a serious look asks the salamander that fact. There must have been no element in Lucia Rose that would have housed the magic of Salamander.


    Of course, to Tiara Rose.


    In Aquasteed''s words, Salamander gives a more bewildered look to the contrary.


    "You gave my magic to Tiara Rose for nothing."


    "What!? To me?


    Tiara Rose is stunned by the fact of the shock because she had no such memory at all. When and how the hell did you get the power of a salamander?


    When Tiara Rose is in a hurry, Salamander tells me ''It was then''.


    "You have given me the power to prepare the Tiara Rose flowers. You must have smiled and snorted, right?


    "At that time... thank you...? Wasn''t that just a handshake?


    "Thank you for shaking my hand... I wouldn''t do that much!


    To Salamander''s point, Tiara Rose drips when she does.


    - I just thought I was thankful for shaking hands.


    But the salamander admits it and shakes hands. Even if they say thank you, Tiara Rose, who is a human, is so convinced.


    "Thank you very much, Salamander. So the magic of Lucia Rose''s fire is unusually high, thanks to the help of Salamander."


    ''You will. Though I didn''t expect to move to a child with a stomach......''


    Salamander touches Lucia Rose''s little hand as she says'' That''s funny ''.


    "The magic of fire grows, but there''s nothing to worry about because it''s not harmful."


    To the salamander, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed look at each other.


    Sure, there may be no harm to the magic of fire, but that''s the problem. Too big, I''ve been in danger many times.


    When I told him that, now the salamander was decent.


    ''Are you serious? Because she''s your daughter, she has a lot of magic. "


    Tell him so, Salamander pointed to Aquasteed.


    - Right!!


    Tiara Rose is that Aquasteed is the main target of attack and that she has become king of the starry sky. Those two things alone snort that it''s enough to think about.


    The high suitability of the magic power of fire was due to the fact that the salamander had been given power.


    I had a lot of magic because I was an Aquasteed child. What I''ve been wondering about here lately has been resolved all at once.


    ''But surely the magic of fire is higher than I thought.... maybe you''ve met other spirits?


    "Other spirits, are you"


    "Yes. Am I a fire? Something else with water undines, windy silves, and earthy gnomes. If you come into contact with someone in there, you can also nod that the magic has been pulled and grown more than expected. ''


    It''s the first time I''ve ever known that spirits affect each other''s magic.


    But Tiara Rose has never met any other spirits, and she doesn''t even know where they are.


    Even about the salamander, until I actually saw it, I just thought it was gay.


    When I shook my head that I had no idea, Salamander nodded, ''Right?''


    ''Even I don''t know where I am. It''s not that easy to meet someone even if you''re trying to meet them.''


    So this story ended with the fact that it was Aquasteed''s daughter who had the high magic of Lucia Rose and that it would be her own qualities.

 146 11. Two Reconciled

    An elegant tea party was held at the Clamentir Mansion, Tiara Rose''s home in the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli, next to the Kingdom of Marine Forest.


    Participants were two: Schnaus and Acari.


    "... I also wanted to stay under Tiara..."


    Schnaus falls into the table, it takes a long sigh.


    "I know, that feeling. Lucia, you were so cute!


    "Oh. That cuteness is the treasure of this world"


    "Really. When you grow up, don''t you come to Lapis Lazuli or your wife?


    He was Schnaus, who admired Lucia Rose by being caught by the word of an acari, but opens his eyes to the continued words.


    "What do you say! It''s outrageous to let such a cute Lucia out to my wife. There won''t be a warrant for Lapis Lazuli."


    "Father is tough!"


    Butterfly, you can grow it to be a flower, but if it goes too far, you miss the edge with a nice man... and Akali laughs bitterly.


    At a time like this, it''s best to change the subject.


    "Speaking of which, when are your mother and Darrell coming back over here?


    "Oh, until my neck sat for now... so I guess the next two months or so"


    "I miss you......"


    Actually, only Schnaus was back in Lapis Lazuli first.


    Darrell remains under the Tiara Rose of Marine Forest with Irtiana because he is still worried about the magic of Lucia Rose.


    Iltiana is with us because she decided that Darrell''s side should still have guardians.


    I would have liked to have stayed with Schnaus if it were true...... he came back ahead to cry because he has a lot of work at Lapis Lazuli.


    There''s also been an increasing chance these days to talk about Acari, Tiara Rose and Lucia Rose.


    Schnaus says I haven''t completely forgiven you yet...... though.


    "But Darrell, you''re great, aren''t you? Healing magic expert, with your sister in mind... and even care about the baby you were born with"


    "Oh! Darrell is my proud son, too! He''s only six, but he''ll be very solid, won''t he? I have a slight weakness, but the core is solid and very dependable"


    Now it''s Darrell Talk.


    "Hi, looks like you lost your master who lived with you. When I first came to my house, it was like a depressing day, but now he''s smiling at me every day."


    "Your father''s Darrell. You love him, too."


    "Absolutely!


    Acari laughs as Schnaus answers instantly with a crisp face.


    "Then it would be great if Lucia Rose became your daughter-in-law!


    "- Huh!!"


    When Akali casually says so, Schnaus breathes heavily.


    On that face, yes or no hands...... it was a blind spot!! but it looks like it is depicted.


    "I said somehow, Master Tiara and Darrell, you''re my sister and brother, aren''t you? You can''t, can you?


    When Akali says something rare and utterly utter, Schnaus nods as he is often silent.


    "... I know"


    "Is that true? Well, I hope so. Oh, then why don''t you just let me have a boy and marry you two!? Wow, isn''t that a fucked up idea!


    It''s like a girl comic strip when kids between best friends get married! and the acari tense up.


    But as for Schnaus, Haltnites'' son and Lucia Rose are married? Damn!!.


    "I respect Lucia''s will. I disagree with an unwilling engagement."


    "Mm-hmm. I agree with that."


    But I have no dreams...... and the acari creep. Even if it was a maiden game, it would be an absolutely delicious development.


    I think Akali is a good grandfather for a cup of tea and a schnauz.


    Though myself and Tiara Rose were exceptions, nobility is a world with so many political marriages. Lucia Rose is the first princess of the great country Marine Forest, so I''m sure there will be a lot of proposals.


    "Oh well...... It''s a big country, so you don''t even have to have a political marriage?


    In retrospect, Aquasteed is a man who said he didn''t want to be about himself with the power of holy light because he has his own power.


    I thought you''d pick yourself out perfectly, but I was just looking at Tiara Rose.


    To Acari''s words, Schnaus nods, "Right."


    "His Majesty Aquasteed has a solid vessel as king. There''s no need to marry politically."


    Marine forest is rich and there is nothing disabling about it.


    One way or another, if Lucia Rose wants an engagement, she can''t say no. That''s the big country Marine Forest.


    "Ahhh, I knew... that''s Aqua''s country"


    "Tiara seems happy too."


    No one else can be more secure as Schnaus.


    "It also comes with an excellent doctor in Marine Forest and now Darrell. The problem of Lucia''s great magic will surely be solved."


    I''m a little anxious, but now I just have to trust Tiara Rose and Darrell to wait.


    "Lucia, you''re the daughter of Dear Tiara and Aqua! You''ll be absolutely fine. If you need anything, I''ll call you too!


    Schnaus laughs as he opens his eyes as Akali stretches his chest.


    "... at all. Master Akali is a strange man. I just thought it was hostile to Tiara."


    "Yesterday''s enemies will be best friends from today."


    That''s what I say, and the acari makes me do a wink with the batin. but Schnaus calmly "won''t tell," returns a scratch.


    "Yes, Father! Say it!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Father?


    To Schnaus, who suddenly shut up, Acari leans her neck. What the hell is going on? and.


    "... no. Master Akali really thinks of Tiara now..."


    That''s what I thought again, and Schnaus smiles.


    "This is how you talk about Tiara and Darrell and tell me you''re cute about Lucia too... I''m so glad. Can you completely forgive me for hurting Tiara? It may be difficult if asked."


    "Father..."


    "If you are a current acari, you can also talk while drinking tea like this"


    I mean, what are you trying to say?


    "I have no more anger toward Master Akali. Keep up the good work as Tiara''s best friend."


    "... Oh, Father ~!!"


    Acari jumped to his senses when he heard what Schnaus had to say. I immediately said, "Here!" It goes without saying that he was angry.


    "La-la-la-la-la-la"


    The fairies of the woods perform a song to Lucia Rose, who is nagging with a basket of flowers. Apparently, you''re babysitting me.


    In Tiara Rose''s room are Lucia Rose, Darrell and Filine.


    The Tiara Roses were about to have a relaxing tea time as Lucia Roses was about to take a nap.


    "Lucia, you''re adorable"


    Darrell seemed to see Lucia Rose''s sleeping face without ever getting tired of it and also thought he had to protect himself from its small size.


    He plays aggressively when he''s awake, and magically calms me down when his magic grows.


    Philine is with me when I''m obsessed with Lucia Rose.


    "Because babies grow really fast. I''m sure you''ll soon be able to sit on your neck, get high, and walk."


    "Wow... then I''d like to take a walk with you"


    "That''s very nice"


    It would be so cute if Darrell and Lucia Rose were friendly and holding hands for a walk. When they could walk, Tiara Rose and Filine thought they wanted to go play in the flower garden.


    "Osampo! I''m coming with you ~! ''


    ''Sounds like fun!


    The leprechauns are finished.


    "Let''s all go then"


    "Ha! I''m looking forward to it, Sister Tiara"


    ''Wow!''


    As Tiara Rose nodded, Darrell and the fairies nodded happily.


    However, it will still take a year before Lucia Rose can walk securely.


    "Yeah, Darrell must be a good brother then, too"


    "Brother......! Yes. I''ll do my best to protect Lucia!


    "It''s very reliable."


    Seeing Darrell laughing happily, Tiara Rose smiles too.


    "Master Lucia Rose has also fallen asleep, so let''s go to the couch, Master Darrell. We''ll have the cake ready soon."


    "Thank you"


    At the time Darrell tried to get back on the couch, in the room - Tiara Rose''s eyes glowed hard to be exact.


    "What!?"


    I shrugged myself in surprise, but the light quickly disappeared and a single letter appeared.


    "Ah, a letter from Mr. Acari."


    Always bitterly laughing suddenly, Tiara Rose takes the letter.


    Thoughts that would have surprised me. When I looked at Darrell, he was protecting me by covering the cradle of Lucia Rose''s sleeping flowers.


    Like a little knight.


    Darrell, it''s okay now.


    "Tiara, your sister?


    "I''m sorry I surprised you. It seems that Akali was magically sending a letter."


    Darrell breathed relief as Tiara Rose showed a split and thick envelope.


    "Master Akali is always sudden."


    "Really."


    Tiara Rose has no choice but to laugh bitterly at Philine, who looks frightened.


    Cut the seal with a paper knife, read the letter and Tiara Rose opened her eyes "Oh".


    As Darrell sat on the couch across the street, he said, "Is something wrong?" and see Tiara Rose.


    "It also contained letters from your father, addressed to Darrell and your mother. This is Darrell''s share."


    "! Thank you, Sister Tiara!


    Darrell received the letter with pleasure and just started reading it.


    Filine looks at the letter wonderfully as she prepares her tea.


    "Did Akali''s letter also contain your husband''s letter?


    "Yeah. Apparently, you two settled."


    "Well."


    Though I was showing a little walk away, I guess it was nice to see that Lucia Rose was born with even more common and beloved subjects.


    "Darrell and his mother are here, so I guess I got some time to talk to Akali."


    It was Tiara Rose who could imagine the two having tea while they cheered up and laughed unexpectedly.

 147 12. Fairies Babysitting

    It''s been about two months since Lucia Rose was born, and lately she''s starting to smile cute and chat with "uh" and "uh-huh".


    Just the question is, has there been more crying at night with it......?


    Tiara Rose gets laid back for childcare she can''t be.


    Lucia Rose''s adorable golden honey pink eyes stare at me as if I were going to make an appeal I want you to stand at all times.


    Tired, but Tiara Rose was mellow on her cute Lucia Rose.


    "Huh, ahh."


    At midnight when Tiara Rose and Aquasteed also slept well, Lucia Rose cried.


    It was Aquasteed that woke up as soon as I realized it.


    Looking to the side, Tiara Rose stays asleep. I can see that the colour of tiredness is floating on that face, and I''m getting tired of taking care of it during the day.


    Aquasteed strokes Tiara Rose''s head before going under Lucia Rose.


    "Ugh."


    Lucia Rose, who was crying, stopped crying just a little when Aquasteed showed her face.


    "It''s all right now, Lucia. There''s nothing to be afraid of."


    "Ah!"


    As Aquasteed held him up, Lucia Rose smiled happily. He seems to love his dad, and he''s coming.


    "That''s cute."


    I kiss my forehead gently and stroke my back so that I can sleep safely.


    "Nevertheless, the same goes for the day...... if you cry at night, Lucia is going to get tired too"


    "Ugh."


    Both pretty princesses look tough, and Aquasteed hopes she can do something more.


    But it''s hard to say that a father is powerless, and often he''s no match for his mother.


    Diapers, dresses, baths, etc. can also be done for Aquasteed, but Tiara Rose still has a longer time together.


    Trivial changes in Lucia Rose are also readily apparent to Tiara Rose.


    "I haven''t studied enough yet......?


    Seeing Lucia Rose gradually glowing, Aquasteed puts her back to sleep in the cradle of flowers.


    "... you''re adorable"


    I enjoyed Lucia Rose''s sleeping face for a while and went back to bed.


    "Uh-huh."


    "Dear Lucia Rose, what''s wrong -!


    I hear a cry from the cradle of flowers, and Filine rushes over. Hug him right away and grab the cause.


    "Diapers...... isn''t it? Are you hungry?


    Uh-huh. If you don''t know, Filine tilts her neck.


    "I must be hungry. Because I didn''t drink much earlier."


    "Was it"


    Tiara Rose sits on the couch and receives Lucia Rose from Filine. Now that I raise them with breast milk, the only way I can give them rice is by Tiara Rose.


    Filine closes the curtain and tells Tarmo, who is escorting him outside the door, not to open it without permission.


    "It''s rice, Lucia"


    "Ah."


    Gently stroking her head, Tiara Rose gives her breast milk. Looks like Lucia Rose was hungry after all because she would be happy to drink it.


    Filine also comes next door to make sure that the cushions and the like don''t strain Tiara Rose.


    "Thank you, Philine"


    "No. You''re adorable, Master Lucia Rose"


    "Yeah, but I often make you cry because I haven''t..."


    If I could raise my child a little more smoothly......, Tiara Rose thinks.


    "That''s not true. I know that Tiara Rose is raised with love. And of course, His Majesty Aquasteed."


    "Filine...... I''m glad you said that."


    I''m sure on my own, I might have gotten laid and fallen. I think I''m blessed that people around me have always supported me.


    "... I actually couldn''t wake up last night when Lucia was crying in the middle of the night"


    "It''s very tight during the day, so you get really tired at night. Were you okay?


    "Yes, because Master Aqua noticed."


    I''m glad Aquasteed is proactive in raising Lucia Rose, but I usually work during the day. I don''t want to strain you until midnight...... and Tiara Rose thinks.


    - And I can''t believe I fell asleep!


    If it''s a big failure, I can sneer.


    Seeing the soggy Tiara Rose, Philine wonders what a voice she should speak.


    If the same thing happened to me, I''m sure I''d be just as worried about Tiara Rose.


    "...... but because His Majesty Aquasteed also loves Master Lucia Rose. And more about Dear Tiara Rose than that. So I think it''s a good idea to sweeten well when you''re tired. And, of course, do not sweeten me."


    The Tiara Roses aren''t the only ones who love Lucia Roses.


    I felt like my shoulders were just a little lighter when I heard Philine say that.


    "Right. Thanks, I''ll try to be a little sweeter."


    "Yes!... Ah, you seem to be full already"


    When I saw it, Lucia Rose looked satisfied.


    I''ll gently stroke your back with a tongue and let you give it a whiff.


    "Philine, can you put me to bed in the cradle?


    "Yes."


    I entrust Lucia Rose to Filine, and Tiara Rose fixes the dress. But it''s hard to wear it beautifully by yourself, so I''ll get Philine to help me along the way.


    Now that I finally took a breath, I circled my stiff shoulder - where Lucia Rose cried.


    "Oh, dear Lucia Rose, what''s wrong?"


    As Philine immediately tried to abandon herself, the fairies of the woods, the sea, and the sky came, saying, ''I''ve done it''.


    He gathers around the cradle of flowers and stares at Lucia Rose.


    ''I''m crying!


    ''It''s not hard!


    The wind!


    While the fairies of the forest and the sea were in a panic, the fairies of the sky were calm. He used the force of the wind to spin the coral bedmery around.


    "Shit."


    Shara Shara Seeing Bed Merry making a noise around, Lucia Rose immediately stopped crying. He stares happily at Bedmerry.


    "Phew, this is the power of the fairy in the sky!


    "Wow......!


    ''I''ll do it!


    Now the fairy in the woods sang a babysitting song and began to give up about Lucia Rose. I hear that, and the fairies of the sea are wandering with me.


    Apparently, the fairies are helping me raise a child.


    "Amazing, I can''t believe you even helped the fairies"


    "Yeah, really. I have to get some sweets to thank you."


    "That''s good. I love Tiara Rose''s treats, so I''m sure she''ll be happy."


    Filine nods and prepares me for Tiara Rose''s suggestion.


    "What? It''s not busy."


    "The fairies make a scene about Lucia Rose being cute, so I came."


    It was Pearl and Claire who showed up in the room on the transfer. Apparently, he was concerned about Lucia Rose and came to see me.


    Immediately Filine will thank you and prepare the tea.


    "Welcome, Master Pearl, Master Crail. The fairies are babysitting Lucia."


    "The fairies in the sky are excellent, so babysitting is going to do well"


    To Claire''s words, Tiara Rose nods that she was right.


    "I turned the bed merry and let it stop crying"


    And now I''m the fairies and I''m in the middle of a big chorus of babysitters.


    I want myself and the fairies to do their best to give up Lucia Rose.


    Then all of a sudden, one of the fairies in the woods said, "Bye! ''and took the trumpet out of nowhere. Fairy-sized, miniature.


    Where did you get that stuff from?!? and everyone on the spot was amazed.


    "Wow, what''s that! Cool! ''


    "I know. That''s a human kid, isn''t it?


    "When are you gonna give me something like that..."


    Running out! And, the sea and sky fairies look at the trumpet with envy.


    The fairy in the woods with the trumpet is a good face, poop! And I let it blow. It sounds so loud that I don''t think it''s a small trumpet, the air in the room trembles.


    But it''s a very beautiful tone, and it seems to relax me when I hear it.


    "He''s pretty good."


    "Yeah, and Lucia Rose."


    The moment Pearl and Claire complimented each other, "Heh heh," Lucia Rose began to cry.


    "What!?"


    Suddenly Pearl panics and sees Lucia Rose, the cradle of flowers.


    "... doesn''t seem particularly unusual or dangerous."


    "Probably cried in surprise at the sound of the trumpet"


    "You don''t like loud noises, do you? Hmm... babies are hard to come by."


    Claire hugged Lucia Rose and refrained from saying "I''m fine".


    Then Lucia Rose stopped crying immediately.


    "You''re a good cook and you''re a good savior."


    "I''m just really surprised at the sound of the trumpet. Look, you should hold Pearl too."


    "Wow!?"


    Claire gives me Lucia Rose, and Pearl is confused. How the hell am I supposed to hold this weak toddler?


    "Dear Pearl, please sit here"


    "Tiara! Mm-hmm, I''ll do that."


    As soon as Tiara Rose called Pearl, Claire escorted her to the couch.


    Sitting slowly and carefully, Pearl breathed relief. Apparently, he was pretty nervous.


    Pearl looks at Lucia Rose in her arms and loosens her cheeks.


    "Cute."


    "Uh-huh?


    Lucia Rose reaches out hard and seems to be shuddering.


    Pearl''s beautiful platinum hair and brightly colored kimonos and flower hair decorations may have caught my eye.


    "What, did you like this?


    "Ugh!


    Pearl thinks "Hmm..." to Lucia Rose, who raised a voice that could also be taken as affirmative.


    "Well, I''m a princess who gives my blessings..."


    "Dear Pearl?


    Tiara Rose, who was watching next door, leans her neck wondering what the hell she was going to do.


    He doesn''t mean she''s a girl.


    When Pearl touched Lucia Rose''s hair, a cute lace headdress appeared on Pong and Lucia Rose''s head.


    It''s white and cute with ribbons and small flowers on the left and right.


    "Wow, cute!


    "That''s right! He''s a naughty kid, so I guess I''ll dress up for the most part. I''ll give you some more coral accessories when I grow up."


    What a big move.


    Tiara Rose chuckles and thanks Pearl.


    "Master Pearl adores you and Lucia is happy. Thank you."


    "I don''t mind this much"


    Pearl stroking Lucia Rose looks really happy.


    "Come see me anytime"


    "Right. If you feel like it, let''s say you come with Claire."


    "Yeah, definitely."


    When Tiara Rose nodded, ''We too ~'' the fairies gathered together.


    Pearl was giving up, so he didn''t hesitate to watch from a distance. What a healthy side to know, Tiara Rose laughs.


    "Thank you, fairies. I was so happy with the babysitting song earlier, will you try again?


    ''Of course!''


    ''It''s up to you!


    ''I''ll try to do it perfectly!


    When everyone nodded, Filine brought a wagon saying, "I''ve got a treat for you," he said.


    "Confectionery!"


    Tea time!


    "My Cup..."


    The fairies got to the table each, so it was a fun tea party.


    And Tiara Rose realizes once again that a lot of people are really helping her...

 148 13. Call Your Name

    "Dear Aqua, Lucia has slept"


    "Yeah, thanks"


    It''s time for Tiara Rose and Aquasteed alone after Lucia Rose sleeps at night.


    Stay away from Lucia Rose, who sleeps comfortably in a basket of flowers, and sit next to Aquasteed, who is looking through the paperwork on the couch.


    "Work, are you busy?


    "No, I''m fine. I just have a lot to check, ''cause it''s not hard."


    Aquasteed left the paperwork on the side table and leaned against Tiara Rose. Apparently, it''s sweet.


    Gently stroking his dark blue hair, Tiara Rose happily calls her name "Dear Aqua".


    But then I realize Aquasteed''s golden eyes are staring at me.


    "Dear Aqua?


    "Hey, won''t you call me anymore? Like then."


    To a profound word, Tiara Rose is confused as to when the hell that was. I don''t have anything in mind.


    - When did this happen?


    I don''t remember calling it special, and I''ve been on Lucia Rose all these days. I didn''t have much sweet time either......


    Aquasteed was giggling as Tiara Rose desperately thought.


    "Ah, Master Aqua!


    "Sorry, I''m desperate to think Tiara''s cute."


    I can''t help but say so.


    "Name. When you had labor pains, you would have called me ''Aqua'', right? Since Lucia was born, I was hoping that Tiara would finally call me and throw it away -"


    When I finished giving birth, Aquasteed told me that I was back to what he always called ''Dear Aqua'' and that I was very disappointed.


    "Oh, that... that... I feel like I can feel Master Aqua closer, and Aqua..."


    But again, because the usual habits are hard to disappear, or because I was relieved to give birth to Lucia Rose, I went back to the usual way of calling it.


    Even as Tiara Rose, I was going to call her Aqua from now on......


    "Hey, call me?


    Aquasteed touches Tiara Rose''s cheek and her fingertips fall to her lips.


    "From this pretty mouth, I''d like to be called."


    "...... Huh!!"


    Tiara Rose''s heart looks like an early bell to Aquasteed''s voice, which is more colorful than usual. Sometimes I can''t stop and my body lags unconsciously.


    But it''s on a small couch, and there''s no escape.


    "Ah..."


    My back hit the elbow on the couch and I was quickly cornered.


    "You can''t run anymore.... What do we do?


    Will you call me? - And Aquasteed deepens his grin. From the look on his face, I can see the thought of letting him definitely call me.


    Of course, even Tiara Rose doesn''t hate to call her a name.


    I''m just terribly embarrassed when I think about situations.


    - I wonder why it''s so colorful...!!


    After all this time, I get stuck with the way Aquasteed looks. But we''ll be together forever.


    "... what are you thinking? Tiara."


    If I had kept my mouth shut, I would have been distanced from Aquasteed all at once. They put their lips on their ears and whisper in a low voice.


    Once, something creepy runs through Tiara Rose''s spine.


    She kisses me in the ear all the time and is prompted with a sweet voice, "Here" as it is.


    "If you don''t call me soon, I''ll eat you like this, okay?


    That''s what I said. Aquasteed eats my ears out.


    "~ ~ ~ ~!"


    "Tiara''s delicious."


    The look of it laughing with pleasure is like a carnivore. It''s not strange that Tiara Rose has been peppered like this.


    Aquasteed''s lips keep changing places with his ears, temples, forehead, cheeks.


    - Keep it up, they''ll eat it all!


    Though there is even Lucia Rose right there, Tiara Rose reaches her arms out and hugs her all the way to Aquasteed.


    "Aqua...... Huh!


    "... tiara"


    Then he is called by his name to a happy voice.


    "He finally called me"


    Tiara Rose regrets just a little seeing Aquasteed smile full of happiness and wish she''d called him sooner.


    - From now on, let''s call it proper aqua.


    "Hey, face... let me see?


    "... definitely red, so please wait a little longer"


    Now that we''re holding each other to Aquasteed, we can''t see each other''s faces. But for that matter, I''m a little scared that I''m going to hear my heart.


    Because Tiara Rose beats so fast. Not very much, but I''m ashamed to make you listen.


    "Pretty Tiara''s face, would you like to see it?


    Tiara Rose is utterly stuffed by the squeaky Aquasteed voice. As much as I''m getting spoiled all the time, I want to hear as much of your request as I can.


    Not sure what to do, "You have no choice," Aquasteed pulled his body back.


    "Yikes!


    I almost fell into the couch as it was, and Tiara Rose accidentally pulled her body back. Then Aquasteed''s hand strokes his cheek.


    "I finally saw Tiara''s pretty face"


    "Ah..."


    Aquasteed, giggling and telling, is in the same position that Tiara Rose pushed down on the couch... her face has more heat than it did earlier.


    Tiara Rose''s honey pink hair rests on Aquasteed''s face, making her look ticklish somewhere.


    "It''s suddenly dangerous, Aqua - Ah, uh, Aqua"


    "I''m sorry. Because I really wanted to see Tiara''s face. Pretty."


    "I''m embarrassed to be told so much already"


    Though they always say she''s cute, I feel like she''s saying it more than usual today.


    "Tiara looked like her mother these days. Of course it''s cute too, because Tiara looks at me like this is cute too"


    I mean, in the end, they''re both cute, Aquasteed says.


    As a Tiara Rose, I sometimes get to every word I''m told. If they say so much, my body won''t have it anymore.


    "Mother''s face, is it?


    "Yes. I wonder if Tiara feels like she''s ready when she''s watching Lucia, that she has to protect her. But also full of charity... like the Virgin Mary"


    "Exactly. That''s a big deal, Aqua."


    I do want to protect Lucia, but the Virgin Mary says too much...... and Tiara Rose laughs bitterly.


    I''m just so glad Aquasteed thinks so, though.


    "Aqua has a father''s face, too, right?


    "Really?"


    "Yes, my eyes on Lucia are so sweet."


    Tiara Rose thinks she has eyes that are not what is meant for her, that are calm and then merciful.


    "If you have a proper father, I''m relieved. I''m worried you''re gonna be okay."


    "Really? I think Aqua is a very fine father."


    Instead, I sometimes wonder if I am making a proper mother.


    Thinking about it, I can see that they cared about each other the same way.


    "Then I hope we grow up together. Me, Tiara and, of course, Lucia."


    "Right. I think Aqua can do anything."


    When Tiara Rose smiled as she worked hard, her hand came out of Aquasteed. They pinch both cheeks, and they attract them as they are.


    "Ah... Aqua"


    "... tiara"


    Eyes meet, we call each other names, nature and lips overlap.


    "Mmm..."


    Repeating the gentle stumbling kiss several times, Aquasteed cleverly switches the position between herself and Tiara Rose.


    When you are pushed down by the couch, a gentle kiss deepens.


    "Huh..."


    When Aquasteed''s tongue is tangled, his body jumps unconsciously. Clinging to his back all the time, "cute" and sweet words whisper in between kisses.


    When you can''t breathe properly and open your mouth, the tangled tongues pull threads from each other.


    But you''re glad you finally called your name... I can''t stop talking about Aquasteed.


    Tiara Rose sinks into the couch with her breath rising.


    "Ha ha..."


    "I haven''t been able to slow down much lately, so..."


    Aquasteed honestly tells me he wants more.


    "I didn''t mean to disappoint you...... sorry?


    Tiara Rose is kind of loving to the aquasteed who apologizes with no evil at all.


    - I, too, kiss Aqua... what I like.


    So there''s no need to apologize at all.


    Instead, I even think I''d be happy if I were asked for more.


    "Aqua...... the"


    "Hmm?"


    Tiara Rose grabs the sleeves of Aquasteed''s clothes and stares at them with a steady upward look. I hope this conveys my thoughts......


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Seeing the very cute Tiara Rose, Aquasteed laughs bitterly that you''ve gone inside. I can''t even be told to stop like this.


    Tiara Rose slowly closes her eyes as she tries to kiss her face again.


    A little more time for both of you - yes, I thought so.


    "Uh-huh."


    "-!"


    The cry of Lucia Rose echoes into the room and opens her eyes all the time. I am so embarrassed because my lips were just about to touch me.


    I''ll take a look.


    "... Yes"


    I kiss my forehead all the time and Aquasteed goes under the basket of flowers.


    "What''s going on, Lucia? Did you miss me?"


    Hold Lucia Rose gently and bring her to the couch as Aquasteed gives up. Then he smiled so much that he said, "Ah," in a good mood.


    "You were glad your dad held you, Lucia"


    "Ugh!


    "That would be an honor."


    The two of us chuckle and sit on the couch.


    Leaning against Aquasteed''s shoulder holding Lucia Rose, Tiara Rose babysits with a gentle voice.


    "Shake the cradle of flowers and sleep in the good boy."


    It''s only night now, and Lucia Rose better get some sleep.


    Then Aquasteed came along.


    "Forest fairies put leaf futons on, sea fairies babysit tones with coral instruments, and sky fairies have a reassuring night-time visit."


    The calm tenor voice makes me sleepy up to the tiara rose I''m hanging out with.


    I''m sure Lucia Rose is the happiest person in the world to sleep with such a lovely babysitter.


    I leaned in for a while as it was and spent time with the three members of my family.

 149 14. Darrells Past

    About three months after Lucia Rose was born, her neck became seated.


    "You''ve made hugging a lot easier, Dear Tiara Rose"


    "Yeah, he''s been gripping my fingers lately."


    "I want you to hold my finger too......!


    I''m tickling that little hand with my fingers as Filine hugs Lucia Rose. Apparently, I can''t wait to give you a break.


    "Dear Lucia Rose, it''s Filine ~"


    "Ugh!


    He reacts when he calls his name, gripping Philine''s finger all the time. The figure is adorable and Filine has a loose cheek.


    "Please grip, Dear Tiara!


    "Isn''t she cute?


    "Very!!"


    Lucia Rose is wearing the forehang that Philine and Elliot got, and she''ll be able to play with the rags Olivia gave her in a little while.


    Now it''s at the cradle of flowers, and the Tiara Roses are shaking it for you to play with.


    Then there are also tons of stuffed animals delivered from Schnaus all over the room. Sometimes it''s moving and Lucia Rose is playing.


    When Filine is flashing Lucia Rose, a knock sounds in the room.


    "Oh, it must be Darrell. I''ll take care of Lucia, will you handle it?


    "Absolutely."


    Tiara Rose keeps Lucia Rose and remembers her upcoming plans.


    Today, Darrell''s routine checkup for Lucia Rose. At intervals of a few days, he sees a state of magic that no normal doctor can see.


    "Brother Darrell is coming, Lucia."


    "Ahhh!


    Lucia Rose seems to love the gentle Darrell thing too, and she seems happy for me. It is very helpful because I do not get stuck in the examination.


    "Dear Sister Tiara!


    "Darrell, thank you for coming. Lucia was waiting for Darrell."


    "Wow, I''m glad"


    Darrell is coming right under Lucia Rose and gently stroking her head. Lucia Rose looks happy too.


    Shortly afterwards, Aquasteed also turned up.


    "Just a paragraph away, I''ll be with you."


    "Thank you, Aqua"


    I don''t have a problem with myself, but I still feel comfortable having Aquasteed.


    Sleep Lucia Rose in the cradle of flowers and Darrell sees the state of magic and more with healing magic.


    With all the guardian rings, Lucia Rose''s magic grew daily. I''m worried I might lose control of my magic one day.


    It''s just... Darrell can''t stop the growing magic or teach you how to control it.


    For this reason, I do a medical examination every time I can.


    "... after all, a little bit, but the magic is growing."


    Place your hands over the ruthia rose and slowly follow the movements of magic in your body. It''s a little bit bigger but certainly bigger than I saw it at birth than I saw it a few days ago.


    Now I have pearl blessings and I have no problem with magic control, but I don''t know what will happen to Darrell if it keeps increasing.


    "It may be good to have a lot of magic, but it''s also burdensome to have too much..."


    "Right...... Especially since I don''t have much magic, it seems difficult to teach Lucia how to handle it¡­"


    Though I can teach you how to use it differently: instilling magic in sweets. Nevertheless, ordinary people don''t really think about doing this.


    "I''ll support you there. ''Cause I think if you''re dealing with magic, you know it to a certain extent."


    "Thank you, Aqua"


    In the meantime, we shall take a serious look at the state of magic and set up a system so that we can learn to treat magic early when we reach a certain age.


    Today''s diagnosis ended fine, and Tiara Rose was relieved.


    "Speaking of which... Lucia''s magic of fire is strong, like the help of Salamander."


    "Master Salamander''s?


    "Yes."


    Tell Darrell about the other day when Salavia and Salamander came. Maybe it''s a little hard to talk about, but he listened seriously as he nodded.


    "I see... that you''ve become more powerful because you''ve come into contact with other spirits"


    I''m worried that Tiara Rose might also be concerned about something because Darrell got so upset as to think about it.


    Silence flowed into the room for a while and Darrell slowly raised his face.


    "... I never talked to you yet, will you listen to my master? Dear Sister Tiara, Brother Aqua"


    "If Darrell doesn''t get hard, I''ll listen."


    "Oh. But you don''t have to"


    Darrell smiled relieved as Tiara Rose and Aquasteed nodded gently. And he told me the story of a master who was pompous and... bubbly and disappeared.


    "Master, dinner is ready."


    "Hmm."


    A small home deep in the woods, by the fountain.


    The sky is blocked by the leaves of the great trees, and just from time to time the light that plugs in reflects on the water surface of the fountain. If I told him I was about to, the words were bad, but when it comes to being in nature, should I say something?


    It took me two days to get to the city and I was always there while I was in the wild. So the only time I go is when I run out of condiments and other things I need.


    In such a place, Darrell and his master lived together.


    The master was always immersed in magical things, and although he sometimes read books, he was more of a writer of something.


    Darrell carries prepared meals, even though he has trouble with a master who suitably hammers him.


    If you can''t come to the dining table, if you eat at the desk where I''m writing, that''s fine. Because if I don''t eat, I''m hungry and I''m not feeling well anymore.


    Darrell finishes his meal alone and waits for his master''s time to settle down.


    "Oh, Darrell. I''m sorry, I lose track of time when I''m obsessed."


    The master hugs Darrell and compliments him for eating alone. He stroked his head saying he was a good kid and smiled, "Let''s take a bath".


    He ties his long hair behind him, which has been left unattended and stretched, wrapping around him in a long robe with a hem. I''m not too obsessed with myself, is it magical when it comes to what I like?


    Darrell, though, loves such a master.


    The bath is on the back of the house.


    Standing in front of a large tub with trees joined together, the master hands on. Then, in an instant, the water boils up and you can take a bath.


    Come on, Darrell, let''s go in.


    "Yes."


    It''s in the deep woods where no one is, so take off your clothes that look like they''re on the spot.


    It''s a huge tub for both of us, so we can stretch our bodies at will. The master speaks out "ahhh" and indulges in hot water.


    "It feels good"


    "Yes."


    When Darrell nods, the master begins to draw something on the surface of the hot water with his fingertips, "Yes," he said.


    Master''s fingers can do anything and always surprise Darrell. The lines depicted as rinsing shine brightly and make me blind.


    "Shall we talk about magic today?"


    "Ha!"


    "Good reply. You taught me that human magic is mostly determined at birth, right? But sometimes it increases."


    The master''s finger moves away from the surface of the water and draws a continuation to the universe. But the finger remained wrapped around the water, and the drawn line became a cup of 3D.


    Let the magic use there to get it in just before it overflows.


    "People have cups to put magic in, and they''re born with full magic in there. Darrell, that''s how you were born."


    "Yes."


    When Darrell nods, the master makes another similar cup: "For example..."


    "If Darrell was given magic by someone else... what would happen?


    I may not be able to do that, or I may have given it to you because of some circumstance. Although it is an extremely rare case, it is said that it may be amplified if it is compatible with magic.


    "Uh... I think my cup will overflow"


    "Yes. There is no magic in a glass full of them. But if they let you in, and you overflow - it''s a magical outburst."


    That''s beyond the magic I can control, and I won''t be able to handle it well unless there''s so much going on.


    "If you run wild, what happens?


    "Well, it depends on how much magic you overflowed...... the area exploded and it sucks to die"


    I wasn''t sure what a young Darrell meant by death, but I somehow figured out that it must be a big deal.


    "So how can it not explode? There are several ways to do this. You see?"


    Shaken by the question, Darrell thinks.


    What if I pour water into a glass and it overflows?


    "Uh, prepare a bigger glass?


    "That''s one hand."


    That said, the master made me try to make a glass of water bigger.


    "But that''s pretty hard. The easy thing is, it sucks magic out of the glass before it overflows."


    "That won''t overflow!


    "Yes, yes."


    Even so, that''s not so easy.


    I wish I had items like attack rings, guard rings, but not something anyone could get.


    "But that''s hard too. Right, if Darrell encounters such an occasion... I hope he interferes with that magic and uses the magic of healing"


    "Healing with people''s magic?


    Will Darrell be able to do that? And I always look at my own hands that use magic.


    "That being said, it''s hard magic, so maybe it''s still hard for Darrell. But I''m good at healing magic, so I''ll be able to handle it sometime."


    "Yes!"


    In this way, the master darrelled me a lot of stories.


    The treatment is so delicate because healing is the magic that works on people. Trying to handle it doesn''t make it that easy.


    Knowledge, effort and then talent will be needed.


    Darrell, who always seems to enjoy listening to his master, is equipped with all of that.


    "Darrell can be the best healing magic user in the world"


    My master used to say that.


    I have studied magic, taken care of my master, and spent time with both of us in the deep woods. No one comes to visit, the days when time flies quietly.


    Then a while later, I had a visit to a house where no one was coming. Darrell hasn''t seen him, but the visitor told me about his master.


    "Undine and I called it that."


    "Eh...!?"


    To Darrell''s words, Tiara Rose opened her eyes wide. Aquasteed is also amazed and hands on his mouth as he contemplates.


    "So Darrell''s master was the Spirit of Water Undine...?


    "... I don''t even know if it''s true, but this is how I come to live in the city. The master said it was something special... I think so"


    The power to manipulate water freely did not lean on others and responded to anything that was magical. Somewhere unusual, such a master.


    "But humans don''t bubble and disappear, do they?


    "That''s... yeah,"


    Previously, Darrell said the master disappeared bubbling the day it rained. I just thought that was a metaphor for death, but it literally disappeared.


    "I listened to Master Salamander and remembered the story of his master''s magic. Since then, they''ve also taught me that when compatible magic approaches, it increases its power... If Lucia has the magic of a salamander in her."


    If the master was really Undine, he probably had some sort of resonance -.


    I''ve just never heard of Darrell himself having the same powers as his master or anything like that.


    "So it''s not something we can talk about with certainty..."


    "No, enough is enough. Darrell was under his master from a small place, wasn''t he? And healing magic expert. Just like Master Salamander, it''s possible that Master Undine would have given him power."


    Speaking of which, I recall that there was a change in Tiara Rose''s body also after she arrived at her parents'' house.


    Darrell nodded small to Aquasteed''s words.


    "So... Tiara, your sister felt painful... thinking it might be my fault..."


    Tiara Rose stands up when she sees Darrell distorted her expression so she can cry.


    "That''s not true, Darrell!


    "Sister..."


    "Even if Darrell had the power of Master Undine, he wouldn''t blame himself. Instead, be proud of that power. He must have been a lovely master, huh?


    "... Yes"


    Tiara Rose gently holds Darrell''s hand and smiles.


    "I know Darrell was always worried about me and Lucia, and he still cares about me this way. Darrell''s healing magic is a gentle power to help people."


    Besides, I''m glad this happened at the stage where Darrell and Akali were.


    If, after birth, one Lucia Rose is influenced by some force in a place where there is no Tiara Rose or Aquasteed either - then I feel relieved.


    "That''s why I''m so glad, Darrell."


    "Oh. You never despise yourself. Thanks for talking to me, Darrell."


    When Tiara Rose and Aquasteed both thanked each other, Darrell either because what he was suppressing piled up...... he hugged me.


    Take it tight and say "it''s okay" over and over again.


    Darrell, who lived with his master and didn''t know much about what an emotion was... but now that his mind was growing more and more, Tiara Rose was happy.

 150 15. Future Things to Do

    Because Elliot and Philine''s mansion settled down, and the three Tiara Rose, Aquasteed and Lucia Rose accepted the invitation.


    In case there shouldn''t be, the escort knights are bringing more than usual.


    "Welcome, Dear Aquasteed, Dear Tiara Rose, Dear Lucia Rose!


    "I''ve been waiting for you"


    As soon as I went to the mansion, Philine and Elliot greeted me.


    "Thanks for inviting me"


    "Thank you. I''ve been looking forward to today."


    "Ahhh!


    When I was put through to the reception room, the maid prepared tea, cake and baked confectionery. It feels strange because Philine usually brews it.


    - Philine is already the wife of the Coralusian family.


    Although it has fallen below the title of my parents, Filine doesn''t care about that, and Elliot would be able to go further up.


    "How''s your honeymoon?


    "What!?"


    When I Zuba asked what Tiara Rose had always cared about, it wasn''t Filine...... but Elliot blushed.


    It''s a fresh reaction I didn''t expect, and I decide they''re doing pretty well.


    Philine replied happily, "It''s going well" while dyeing her cheeks a little.


    They both look happy and even Tiara Rose will be happy.


    After a light chat, Aquasteed cut out a story about Lucia Rose. It''s about magic and it''s about spirits.


    I was also briefly talking to Philine and Elliot, but not in detail.


    "Talmo, come over here and listen to me with you."


    "Yes."


    If Tarmo, who was waiting in front of the door, also refrained from being nearby and met with other spirits in the same way he had been and would continue to be... explain the possibility that the magic might swell.


    "All fairies and, Dear Claire, Pearl. That blessing alone is amazing... I didn''t know you were even living in the power of Salamander."


    I can only be surprised, Elliot says.


    "But still, it is Master Lucia Rose who controls magic in this way. We have the power to bless the rings and pearls¡­ but in the future we will surely grow as splendidly as His Majesty Aquasteed"


    Anything slightly disturbing, Filine says Lucia Rose will get you through it, even if you have difficulties.


    "If there''s anything like a malicious spirit approaching, I''ll just do my best to protect you."


    Talmo told me that all I could do was protect it.


    Aquasteed nods at the three words and tells them what is to come.


    "We need to get ahead of ourselves here so Lucia doesn''t get in danger. What''s overwhelmingly missing..."


    "That''s information."


    "Oh."


    Elliot follows Aquasteed''s words and snorts at it.


    It has been thought that the existence of the Spirit has never been as real as a gaga. Therefore, there is little information, and it would be another dream to know where it is.


    "Elliot, can you ask me?


    "Of course it is. No matter what hand you use, I will try to gather information for Master Lucia Rose. Leave it to me."


    When Aquasteed asked for it, Elliot nodded quickly. Even if you didn''t tell me, I was going to name it after myself.


    "I''m going to go through His Majesty Salavia, too, and talk to Lady Salamander."


    "Yes, the more information you have, the better."


    It would be nice if Elliot stood at the top and attached some knights to form an intelligence-gathering unit.


    It''s my honeymoon, but I''m going to be pretty busy from now on.


    "Tiara and Filine, try to keep an eye out for Lucia. Darrell, it''s time to go home."


    "You can''t have Darrell look at Lucia all the time. I''d like to be careful."


    "I want to be more careful, too."


    If there is any change in Lucia, we may be able to respond immediately.


    Fortunately, there are also attack and defensive rings now. Yeah, well, there won''t be anything like a rampage full of magic.


    "Then Tarmo. It''s hard to be vigilant because you don''t know what the Spirit looks like, but if anything is uncomfortable around you, please report it immediately."


    "Absolutely."


    That concludes our first discussion.


    "There''s not much I can do."


    Basically, until now, everything has been superior or there has been a thread to solve it. But this time the thread is even small, and I can hardly find it.


    Everyone here feels like something''s wrong.


    "Huh?


    Because I felt the serious air, or I raised my voice bright as Lucia Rose would erase it.


    "Ugh."


    "I''m sorry, Lucia. That''s not a good vibe."


    Tiara Rose uses the rags she was bringing to play with, flashing Lucia Rose. I''m glad to hear it, the air on the field is soothing.


    "The power of the baby is amazing. We will serve you well so that Master Lucia Rose can smile like this forever."


    "Thank you, Philine. It''s very comforting."


    At the end of an important discussion, I decided to ask the Philinees to show me around the mansion.


    It''s not that big of a mansion, but it''s right near the royal castle, with a rose garden. It is a beautiful garden with gardeners taking care of it every day and seasonal flowers.


    A small fountain is installed because two people, Filine and Elliot, are blessed by the sea fairy. You can come and see me anytime, it means.


    The mansion was carefully refurbished, although it had a few years of construction. It''s a two-story mansion, and the Philinese rooms are upstairs.


    The Tiara Roses were shown the guest rooms and dining room on the ground floor.


    Because of this, I''ll talk to him as he takes his time to get some tea in the last dining room I saw.


    "Filine chose the interior? It''s so warm, it reminds me of the Sanfist mansion."


    Filine''s home was full of brothers and always full of warmth. There are only two of us in this mansion yet, but I''m sure there will be more families soon.


    "I wasn''t particularly conscious, but if you ask me, it looks like the atmosphere of my parents somewhere"


    "I like it, this interior"


    "... Huh! Oh, thank you."


    Elliot responded naturally to Filine, who said she had not noticed at all. Because I was smartly complimented, or the filine is a little lit up.


    Sometimes Elliot says something he''s sure to do.


    Filine points to the painting on the wall.


    "It''s a painting by Elliot."


    It is a landscape painting, with a large single tree and a building cut out at the end of the canvas. It''s a beautiful piece, with a leaky tree.


    Elliot paints very well and paints many things as a hobby. I also paint pictures occasionally, but there are usually many landscapes, etc.


    - Oh? What is this place...


    But if you look closely, Tiara Rose had an idea of the place.


    "Is this... the shade of the tree I used to read?


    Elliot nods at Tiara Rose''s inquiry.


    "Yes, it''s a school in Lapis Lazuli"


    "I miss you."


    I graduated from school, and it''s been a long time.


    Recover memories from your previous life. It''s where the culpability event took place, but have tea with Filine, meet Aquasteed... lots of good memories too.


    "It''s nice to see a nice painting."


    "No, because my painting is a hobby."


    "I''m not that humble."


    "Thank you"


    I looked at the landscape I missed for a while thinking about that, wanting to have Lucia Rose painted one day as well.


    I stayed completely long and it was evening when I realized it.


    "Thank you for today"


    "I''ll see you tomorrow at the royal castle"


    "Thank you for coming. It''s pretty fresh to meet Elliot like this."


    "Right."


    I''m usually in Aquasteed''s clerk''s office, so this was the first time I''d seen Elliot like this, who had become a nobleman.


    Nevertheless, the relationship between the two remains the same as before.


    After exchanging goodbye greetings, the Tiara Roses returned to the royal castle.


    Tiara Rose is putting Lucia Rose to bed and playing with the stuffed animal she got Schnaus.


    I don''t move it by magic and it seems fun to see Tiara Rose moving it by hand.


    "Ah!"


    "It''s Lucia''s favorite, Cat - haha"


    When I "nya" with a cat stuffed animal, Lucia Rose makes me happy to have my hands and feet splashed.


    The way you''re holding Cat''s tail so hard with your little hands makes you feel so grown.


    "Until recently, I couldn''t hold things..."


    When it grows too fast, Tiara Rose thinks.


    - I wish I had a video camera.


    That way, we can keep Lucia Rose growing without... But there is no electricity in this world, so I can''t help it otherwise.


    "You''re both playing cute."


    "Aqua! Welcome back"


    "I''m home. I''ve sent a letter to His Majesty Saravia. If Master Salamander knew anything, he''d tell me."


    Aquasteed breathes when he does what he can at the moment for the first time.


    Then I put my jacket on the couch and even came to the bed where Tiara Rose and Lucia Rose played.


    I fell asleep next to Lucia Rose so I could stay asleep.


    "Good day, Aqua"


    "You can just get Tiara to call your name, and you''re gonna fly tired."


    "Already..."


    Tiara Rose uses her cat''s hand to stroke Aquasteed''s head all right. When you''re tired, I''m sure it''s a good idea to spoil you.


    Aquasteed smiles happily and hopefully the real deal anyway...... and puts his head on Tiara Rose''s lap.


    "Then you don''t know which one is the baby."


    "If you can spoil Tiara, you can have a baby."


    "If Aqua"


    I stroke the head of a big baby and kiss that forehead gently. It may not have always been as smart as Aquasteed would have been, but it''s a spoil to be Tiara Rose.


    Aquasteed smiles satisfactorily and tangles his fingers in Tiara Rose''s hair.


    "You''re gonna want me to spoil you more."


    "You have no choice. It''s special."


    "Ugh! Huh?"


    "Ah, Lucia! Sorry, I didn''t forget Lucia, did I?


    When I held up Lucia Rose, who cried out, she smiled as if she was relieved because she could see Tiara Rose''s face.


    "Ahhh!


    "Good, stop crying right away"


    "I''m sorry, Lucia. I took my mom away."


    Aquasteed stroked Lucia Rose''s head and touched her cheeks like that.


    "It''s dull, and it''s the kind of skin you want to touch all the time. Babies have skin and I envy them."


    "It''s definitely moist and cute, but I also like Tiara''s moist and beautiful skin"


    Aquasteed''s hand, which was touching Lucia Rose, now extends to Tiara Rose. I touched my cheeks as I stroked them.


    "Yeah, you like it"


    "Thank you"


    - This little thing makes me so happy.


    Aquasteed''s words are like magic and always make me happy about Tiara Rose.


    "Lucia''s dad looks great"


    Unconsciously he groans like that and loosens his body so that he can lay Lucia Rose to sleep. I went out to Elliot''s Mansion today, so I should be more tired than usual.


    As Tiara Rose thought, I could hear her sleep right away.


    "Let''s sleep in the cradle, shall we?"


    Tiara Rose gets out of bed and puts Lucia Rose to sleep in a basket of flowers. It seems easy and pleasant, and it may be neat until this morning.


    When I go back to bed, Aquasteed pulls my arm and hugs me.


    "Aqua?"


    "Because Tiara says something cute when she''s taken away"


    "Huh?"


    To Aquasteed''s words, I tilt my neck to say something - remembering that I accidentally whined like I was talking to myself.


    "No, that''s... well, because I really do. Aqua''s the nicest in the world, isn''t it?


    So accidentally, I can''t help but talk unconsciously. It''s the responsibility of a good aquasteed.


    "The usual shy tiara is cute too, but the tiara that speaks of me is also nice. be soaked"


    "... I''ll say as much as I want. Because I love Aqua."


    Though I''ve said it all, it''s not like I''m not ashamed.


    Tiara Rose''s ears turn red and her face can be turned away just a little. But that behavior is just adorable.


    I''m not going to let you sleep tonight. With that in mind, Aquasteed kissed Tiara Rose.

 151 1. Sweet Daily

    Marinforest, a great country loved by fairies.


    And soon, I was about to celebrate the first birthday of a princess born in this country. Marinforest is very lively at the festival that raised the country.


    Tiararose laughs bitterly at the amount of gifts delivered for the princess.


    Of course, I''m glad you gave it to me for my daughter.


    Ahhhh ~


    "Oh, did you like the present? They all celebrated Lucia''s first birthday."


    Say that and take the hand of the daughter who is going to stand up with her hands on the gift box. Then you''ll show me a very cute and happy smile.


    It was Tiararose Lapis Marine Forest who took her daughter''s hand.


    Married to Marinforest from the Marquises of neighboring Lapis Lazuli, the mother of Princess Lucia Rose, who is now her first son.


    Fluffy honey pink hair and light blue eyes. The gentle smile is cute, but now she often shows a strong side as a mother.


    And here - she is also the villain of the maiden game world "Lapis Lazuli''s Ring".


    Lucia Rose Marine Forest, a loved and growing daughter.


    Dark pink hair and golden honey pink crushed eyes. Everyone in the royal castle loves me and always smiles.


    Sometimes I have the magic of salamander fire in my body, and I have had powerful magic in my body since before I was born.


    You can use magic to manipulate stuffed animals freely.


    Tiararose complimented Lucia Rose, who stood in her hand, saying, "You''re good ~".


    I can''t speak yet, but I grabbed it and remembered to stand.


    Therefore, I was worried about Tiararose and couldn''t let go of my eyes for a while. Because as soon as I look away, I go anywhere.


    "Ahhh!


    "Yikes, Lucia!


    Lucia just stopped standing and switched to yes mode. Yes, yes, apparently the destination is like a door.


    When Tiararose stood up to chase after him, he noticed that the door was slightly open.


    - Oh, yeah?


    Looks like Lucia Arrows noticed the door was open.


    When Lucia Arrows reached the door with a yes, the door opened with a gentle voice saying, "I''m home."


    The incoming person holds Lucia Rose and kisses her on the cheek.


    I''m home, both of you.


    Welcome back, Aqua.


    Ah!


    Back was my father, Aquastead Marinforest.


    Dark blue hair and golden eyes, a sign of the King. It is a smooth system, but it is so muscular that it is well trained.


    This is the king of the Marine Forest.


    Aquastead holds Lucia Rose under the tear rose and gently mouth her lips. I have Lucia Rose, so just touch it.


    "... so sweet."


    "Ah...."


    It was discovered that she had just eaten sweets, and Tiararose lighted up by holding back her mouth.


    Because I didn''t think the flavor was left behind.


    "Childcare is tiring, sweets are important."


    "Aqua...."


    Tiararose chuckles at Aquastead, who says she can eat anything. That''s right, if you eat so much, you''ll get fat and it''s not good for your health.


    "But if you say so, so is Aqua. Thank you for your work. Would you like something to drink?


    "I see... let''s drink together"


    "Yes"


    Aquastead sits Lucia Rose on the sofa and takes off her coat. Tiararose will pick it up immediately and head for the hanger.


    I''ll call you later.


    "Thank you."


    "I have drinks and... ah, delicious nut brownies. Philline bought me a popular shop in the city."


    That''s nice.


    So I decided to eat with Aqua Steed and I haven''t talked to him yet. I''m sure Philline will be eating with Elliot at home by now.


    --Hmm, Aqua''s favorite wine? Or an easy-to-drink champagne?


    I thought about what would be good, and recently I''ve been drinking a lot of wine, so I tried to prepare some champagne.


    I have to take care of Lucia Rose when she trips, so I only need a little tear rose.


    --I have nut brownies!


    Champagne is fine, but nut brownies are better.


    Enjoy a relaxed atmosphere with Aquastead and the two of you.


    Returning with cut nut brownies and champagne, Lucia Rose was sleeping pleasantly next to Aqua Steed.


    "It''s usually bedtime."


    "Shall I take you to your bedroom first?"


    "Yes"


    Aquastead holds Lucia Rose and puts her to bed with flowers in her bedroom.


    Flower beds and bed parts made by fairies are made of plants, and birds'' wings are used for decoration. And when you sleep comfortably, you can hear the spirals of the sea with a small sound.


    What an exhausting bed.


    "Nnju ~"


    Lucia Arrows smiled when she put him to bed.


    "Lucia seems to have enjoyed herself today."


    Aquastead laughs at Lucia Rose''s sleeping face, and Tiararose answers with a slightly tired face.


    "I can''t let go of my eyes when I''m doing yes. I was about to hit my desk leg today... and Philline was in a big hurry."


    "That was tough."


    Rushing Lucia Rose''s forehead, Aquastead laughs, "She''s a transfer princess."


    But that''s not all, Tiararose continues.


    "Besides, that stuffed toy...."


    Um?


    What Tiararose calls'' that ''stuffed toy is a large lion stuffed toy placed next to the bed.


    From what I can see, Lucia Arrows is about to get on.


    But Aquastead leans his neck, saying that the stuffed animal shouldn''t have been in the morning.


    "Actually, this is a birthday present for Lucia from Acari."


    "From Miss Acari? I have to thank you."


    "Yes"


    The lion stuffed toy has embedded ornaments on its neck and has a very crispy vibe.


    "But what''s wrong with this stuffed animal?


    It''s a bit of a luxurious, ordinary stuffed toy.


    But Tiararose shook his head at Aquastead''s words.


    "It was good until Lucia got hold of this stuffed animal and got up, but I walked out on my back...."


    "Ahh....."


    I see, Aquastead looks at the lion with a bitter smile.


    "... somehow, I don''t think Miss Acari chose a stuffed animal with that intention."


    Me too.


    So I put the stuffed toy in the bedroom so I couldn''t move it during the day.


    Of course, when Tiararose has some leeway, it''s okay to play with the lions.


    I''m just worried about getting too stiff and accidentally getting hurt.


    "Nh, delicious!


    Return to your room and enjoy a relaxing evening with nut brownies and champagne.


    It''s just Philline''s choice, and it''s delicious.


    Tiararose smiled and ate nut brownies, and Aquastead stared at her.


    The nut brownie Aquastead has in his hand is still untouched.


    "You''re not eating? Aqua"


    "... no, I''m enjoying watching Tiara eat."


    "~ ~!?"


    I didn''t expect such a return, and Tiararose''s hand stopped.


    "You can eat without worrying about me.


    "I care!


    "I''m always watching."


    I wonder what to do with Aqua Steed because the tear rose is cute and suddenly illuminated when I am conscious.


    Whether you''re eating happily or can''t eat in the light, you can''t help it.


    "... please also eat Aqua. Now you''re looking at the Aqua I''m eating!


    "That''s it again...."


    Aquastead giggles at Tiararose''s suggestion. There''s nothing wrong with eating... but I think the results are going to be the same anyway.


    Well, take a good look.


    "Eh...."


    The tear rose stunned at the Aqua Steed that came aboard.


    I knew from years of experience that I was definitely up to something. But it''s too late.


    Aquastead put nut brownies in his mouth and turned his gaze toward the tear rose.


    "......!


    It''s delicious.


    Lick your lips and crush the nuts. Just seeing that trick makes your heart pulse so fast.


    I''m just eating nut brownies, and I wonder why they''re so colorful... on the contrary, they illuminate the tear rose.


    Aquastead takes another bite while watching the tear rose.


    Yeah, but...


    That''s what Aquastead said and put his hand on Tiararose''s cheek.


    "It might taste even better if you two ate it together."


    Ah, Akua


    A beautiful smiling face with nut brownies in its mouth is getting closer and closer.


    It was Tiararose who managed to escape, but he couldn''t move because he was being held down by the Aqua Steed with a strong force besides his mind.


    I was quickly stripped of my lips.


    "Nh...!


    Moisturizing brownie touch and brandy fragrance spreads into your mouth, making you immobile.


    It''s supposed to be bitter brownies with bitter chocolate, but it''s so sweet because of the kiss. Tiararose thinks it''s going to get light-headed.


    Tiararose stuck to Aquastead''s clothes and sifted. If I don''t do this, I''ll melt and fall on the sofa.


    Ak, nh


    When Tiararose swallows nut brownies, Aquastead releases his lips.


    "... it''s sweet when you two eat together."


    "Ugh!"


    Even though it was a moist and bitter adult nut brownie, it was incredibly sweet just by eating with Aqua Steed.


    --I must not tell you that I want to see you eating nauseously in the future...


    Though I thought about it, I didn''t hate Tiararose either. I was just embarrassed.


    "I''m sorry, I wanted to refill Tiara."


    With a gentle kiss like Aquastead''s touch, Tiararose blinks her eyes... smiling.


    Well then, there''s no choice.


    Please resupply and I hugged Aquastead.

 152 2. Report on spirits

    "Hah, I''m tired! Time for a break!!"


    "Is Keith a bad hunter... or do we have to mess around?


    Craig sighed at Keith as he stretched out. Looking at the books in the forest library, Keith grew up to be easy to read.


    "Well, you know what I want to know. Let''s go to Tiara and have some sweets."


    "Absolutely...."


    Keith the Fairy King of the Forest puts the botanical books under control.


    She has long dark green hair in one piece and flushes it forward. Winning eyes are intimidating and golden, a sign of the King.


    Blessed is the Empty Fairy King Claire, who blesses Aquastead.


    Empty hair is neatly cut and cool eyes are golden, a sign of the King. It''s calm, but for pearls, I wear women''s clothes.


    They were investigating spirits for Lucia Arrows in the "Forest Book" in Keith''s Castle.


    Lucia Arrows holds the power of the Spirit of Fire Salamander in her body and possesses powerful magic.


    Also, when you encounter spirits, magic resonates and may increase. I wish I could grow up and learn how to handle magic, but if I don''t, I''m more likely to run wild.


    That''s all we have to do to prevent it.


    That''s why Keith and Craig were investigating spirits.


    "Nevertheless, there is little information about spiritual relationships. We weren''t particularly involved, so maybe we can''t help it....."


    If this happens, Claire thinks she should have stayed involved.


    Keith said, "There''s nothing you can do about the past!".


    "It''s not too late now."


    "Sometimes I wish I could be as optimistic as Keith."


    "You...."


    That being said, they made the transition and left the forest library behind.


    The location has changed, the imperial castle of Marine Forest.


    Tiararose, Aquastead, Filine, Elliot, and Talmo gathered to discuss the Spirit.


    Lucia Arrows is taken care of by the fairies.


    "I managed to find out where the Spirit is... I''m sorry, there''s hardly any harvest."


    If you don''t face him, Elliot will fall.


    "The existence of spirits was thought to be a ghost.... but we have to find something for Lucia Rose."


    Filine looks tough when she finds out it''s hard.


    But it''s burning because of the cute Lucia Rose.


    Elliot Coralsia, close to Aquastead.


    Now he has been awarded a baron and lives with his wife Philline in a mansion near the royal castle. I''m good at intelligence, but this time I''ve been forced into a lot of trouble.


    Filine Coralcia, the maid of Tiararose.


    Yellow-green hair and Sepia''s eyes. I love Tiararose and can be trusted from a small point of view.


    Now I''m married to Elliot and have a happy life.


    "No, thank you. But almost nothing means there was some, right? Elliot"


    "Yes"


    Aquastead looked at Elliot with a serious look and encouraged him to continue.


    "The spirits without any clues are the wind spirits silf and the earth spirits gnome."


    Spirits are the salamander of fire, the undine of water, the silf of wind, and the gnome of earth.


    Among them, Salamander is known to be in the Sandrose Empire. However, she doesn''t know where the other spirits are.


    Undine seems to be the master of Tiararose''s brother-in-law Darrell. But now it becomes a bubble and disappears - it is presumed that one end of its power is inherited by Darrell.


    Salamander, Undine has already resonated with Lucia Rose, so only two spirits remain: Silf and Gnome.


    "I don''t know, Undine, but Salamander is in Sandros, a desert country. For this reason, I think we are close to each other''s power...."


    Based on that, Elliot realized that there was a very windy country nearby.


    The country is a small country of the kingdom of Rapislazuli, the Philadelphia, opposite Marinforest.


    The kingdom is lined with windmills, and no matter what you do, the power of the wind brings great grace.


    "Among the ruins excavated in Philadelphia is a legend about Sylph."


    Just because it happened doesn''t mean Sylf is in Philadelphia. A wind-rich country may only symbolize Spirit Silf.


    But Elliot thinks he''s the best candidate at the moment.


    "So, in my opinion... there is a spirit of wind in the Kingdom of Philadelphia."


    It''s worth checking out.


    Aquastead nods to Elliot''s words and thinks he needs to get in touch with Philadelphia.


    "Aqua, let me handle Philadelphia."


    Tiara?


    "Actually, I''ve been to Philadelphia. I have an interaction with Princess Emerald, so I think it''s easy to talk to her."


    Tiararose recalls going to Philadelphia.


    I went to Philadelphia on a trip between my parents and Philline. At that time, he greeted the royal castle with his face.


    - How is Princess Emerald?


    Philadelphia''s First Princess Emerald was the same age as Tiararose, so she stayed a short time but became very close.


    I''m honestly glad to see you again.


    Then I''ll leave this to Tiara.


    "Yes"


    Tiararose nodded at Aquastead''s words.


    "When I go to Philadelphia....."


    --It looks like Akari-sama will be involved.


    That''s what I think, and I laugh bitterly.


    The fastest way to go to Philadelphia is through Lapis Lazuli. I think we should contact her beforehand.


    Looking at the thoughtful Tiararose, Aquastead said, "Do you have any concerns? He worried.


    And slowly shake his head, Tiararose smiles bitterly.


    "Akari-sama is going with me..."


    "Ahh....."


    The words of Tiararose coincided with those of everyone. Everyone''s perception of acari is the same.


    However, he is the user of holy prayer, and the acari in the heroine position of this maiden game depends on him.


    Let''s talk about it first.


    When Tiararose thought so, a wind blew into the room and Keith and Crail appeared.


    "Hey, I''m here to eat Tiara''s sweets."


    "Good work discussing spirits."


    Keith, Claire!


    Sitting on an empty sofa, Philline immediately prepares tea and sweets. As Keith asked, it was a cookie cooked by Tiararose.


    Claire started talking about the Spirit while looking sideways at Keith who was just eating.


    "I heard what you said earlier. Sure, Philadelphia is a pleasant environment for Silf."


    "If Craig says so, the chances are pretty high.... but I don''t have any information about Gnomes at all."


    As Aquastead returns it, he thinks about the land Norm likes... but this is all very difficult to identify.


    There may be a lot of gems and ore... but if you ask me if it''s public, no. There are also hidden mines, so it won''t be easy to investigate.


    Crail giggles as she sees Aquastead sighing.


    "I don''t know where the gnomes are, but... they''re underground."


    "In the basement?


    The Tiararoses were astonished at Craig''s words. I didn''t think you lived in such a place.


    "I just didn''t know where it was."


    "No... thank you, Craig."


    When Aquastead thanked him, Keith opened his mouth after eating the cookie.


    "Gnomes rarely interact with others, so I don''t think so."


    I see. If you don''t come into contact with Lucia, you won''t suddenly get more magic and run wild. "


    In Keith''s words, Tiararose gently stroked his chest.


    As Lucia Arrows grows and learns to manipulate magic, she''ll be fine. Until then, Tiararose draws attention to the need to protect herself.


    "Hang on, we really don''t have much information on spirits. We''ve been in the Marine Forest for a long time, so there''s a lot we don''t know."


    "There''s nothing I can do about it. But where did Keith get Norm''s information?


    "It''s my castle''s library. I''ve recorded a lot of things, but not all of them."


    --There was a library in Keith''s castle.


    Tiararose was surprised and Keith said, "What? And I looked at this.


    "Keith and the book aren''t very connected."


    "It''s you... even I read books."


    "Right, I''m sorry. Thank you for looking into the spirits in the library, Keith."


    Ah.


    It''s so comfortable to say that the Fairy King is on your side.


    But the Fairy King has nothing to do with humans. It has always been a stance that humans solve human problems.


    However, I do put a shoulder strap on Tiararose anyway.


    "Well, for now, is there enough information we can tell you? And then there''s the relationship with Philadelphia... but Tiara can do it."


    I''ll do my best.


    Keith takes his last bite and sends a word of support to Tiararose.


    For now, I told you, let''s go home.


    I see. I''ll come back for some sweets. "


    When Craig and Keith said so, they quickly disappeared due to the metastasis.


    The remaining members face each other.


    All you have to do is contact Philadelphia. Elliot examines relationships such as mines and information about the underground.


    I was relieved to decide where to go for a moment.


    "I know it''s hard, but I need your help with Lucia."


    "If there''s anything I can do, I can do it myself."


    Yes!


    Everyone responded in a breathtaking manner to the words of Tiararose and Aquastead.

 153 3. The Missing Princess

    Tiararose wrote a letter to promote interaction with Philadelphia for several months.


    The Princess of Philadelphia replied that she would be welcome, so I am now scheduling a visit.


    Tiararose brought Lucia Rose to the garden.


    Filine and her escort, Talmo and a few knights.


    "I''m glad you''re able to make it to Philadelphia."


    Philline shakes the subject of Fillarcia while making tea.


    "Yes. I wish I had more information on Master Sylf... I''m worried we''ll find a way in."


    No way! Is there a spirit of wind in the royal family of Philadelphia? And I can''t even ask with a straight ball.


    "We''ll have to do everything we can to find a clue."


    "I can help you, Master Tiararose."


    Thank you, Philline.


    Tiararose and Philline laugh face to face and see Lucia Rose playing on the lawn.


    --I will never put Lucia Rose in danger.


    As a mother, I will protect my child no matter what.


    Ahhh ~?


    "Ah, Lucia, don''t go too far."


    It is cute to wear on the lawn with pleasure, but if you go outside the lawn, stones may fall and you may be injured.


    "Lucia Arrows is curious. I''ll take him with me."


    Philline called out Lucia Rose''s name and reached out to her, "Here we go!"


    As soon as Lucia Arrows saw Philline, the flowers smiled and reached out in the same way.


    Hmm ~


    "Ah, you''re so cute, Lucia Rose!!"


    The lovely Lucia Rose and Philline are mellow.


    I quickly crouched down and tried to lift Lucia Rose, but her hand grabbed the universe.


    Oh?


    "©¤!?"


    At the moment, everyone on the spot opened their eyes.


    Lucia Arrows suddenly fell into a hole in the ground. Suddenly, no one can keep up with their thoughts.


    "Lucia!?"


    As Tiararose roughens his voice, Talmo runs.


    "Report to His Majesty immediately and arrange for a doctor!


    Talmo gives instructions to the knight and stretches his hand to the hole where Lucia Rose fell. However, Talmo''s hand grabs the universe in the hole without touching Lucia Rose.


    "What do you mean...!?"


    The holes are not that big, and the size of the ruchiarose is about as big as the ruchiarose. That''s why Talmo put his arm in it, but he couldn''t even touch Lucia Arrows.


    If you don''t know what it means, Talmo bites his lips.


    "Lucia, Lucia is safe!?"


    Tiararose came up to the hole and peeked inside - what a mysterious thing happened.


    Lucia Arrows'' fallen hole began to close. The hole is about to disappear as he swallows Lucia Rose.


    "The hole...! What''s going on!?"


    "Dear Tiararose, it''s dangerous! Stay away!!"


    "No! Lucia, Lucia is in here!!"


    How can my mother escape to safety?


    "No, no... Lucia!!"


    "Master Tiararose, for now, let the knights handle it...!


    With a screaming voice, Tiararose desperately touches the ground. I don''t care if my hands are torn apart by dirt and sand.


    I can''t even hear the call to leave it to Philline''s knight.


    Tiararose makes her voice rough, but there''s nothing to explain why. All we can do is dig back into the blocking ground while everyone is confused.


    "Lucia..."


    Relax, Tiara.


    "... ah, key... s?


    Keith grabs the hand of Tiararose, who desperately digs a hole, and appears in the metastasis. I can see that the expression is serious and different from the usual.


    Stay back.


    Keith said just one word and put his hand on the ground.


    "Trees all over the Marine Forest, use their roots to find the princess of this country!!"


    In response, the grass and flowers, the trees, and the earth swayed.


    I see that the fairy king that reigns in the forest manifests his wrath.


    Tiararose watched desperately for tears to spill and stared at Keith... but Keith stood up after tongue-tapping.


    "Shit, I got away.... the Spirit of Earth did it."


    Keith takes the hands of Tiararose and makes him stand up.


    Looking at the hole on the ground, it looks as if nothing had happened. I can''t believe Lucia Arrows may be on the ground.


    Tiararose staggers but asks Keith why.


    "The Spirit of Earth...? Why Lucia....."


    "I don''t even know why.... but for whatever reason, I''m not going to forgive you. Isn''t it? Aqua"


    Seeing Keith calling, Aquastead was on his way.


    There is an empty Spirit right next to it, so they must have told me what happened. From that expression, you can see the color of anger.


    "- Of course."


    Aquastead came under the tear rose and hugged me gently. Then tears spilled out of Tiararose''s eyes.


    "Aqua, Aqua... Lucia...!


    I was patient, but when I saw Aquastead, I was relieved and tears came out. I''m worried about Lucia Rose and I can''t help it.


    Aquastead gently caresses and soothes the tear rose.


    "I can''t believe this is happening while I''m telling you to protect me... I''m sorry, Tiara."


    "... no. Aqua doesn''t have to apologize."


    Tiararose stuck to the Aqua Steed and shook his head. Instead, it was me who couldn''t do anything with it.


    Instead of teasing me, she hugs me to reassure me.


    "Even if the opponent is a spirit, I can''t forgive him for grabbing Lucia. Absolutely."


    "... yes, yes! I''ll do whatever I can for Lucia...!


    Tiararose weeps if not when she is crying.


    "Keith, I don''t know where Lucia was taken...."


    "Unfortunately, the only thing I know is in Marine Forest."


    "Oh no...."


    Slightly hopeless - I thought so, but Keith pointed in a direction, "Well, wait."


    "We can''t even pinpoint the location, but the signs of Lucia have gone from Marine Forest to Lapis Lazuli."


    "Well then, Lapis Lazuli... think there''s a gnome around Philadelphia we were just talking about."


    Keith''s words were followed by a metamorphosed crane.


    "It''s magic to go through the dirt, but it''s impossible to get far enough across the country. Not to mention taking people with you."


    In other words, the Gnome will be in or around the kingdom of Rapislazuli, the kingdom of Philadelphia.


    "Let''s go now! If we don''t hurry, if something happens to Lucia..."


    Calm down, Tiara.


    "Aqua...."


    Aquastead stops the tear rose trying to get ready in a hurry.


    --I want to go and get him!


    The feeling of "why?" grows in Tiararose. But it disappeared in an instant, looking at Aquastead''s eyes.


    Tiararose lost his words to his golden eyes, desperately suppressing his emotions.


    Choose the best course of action to help Lucia Rose. Those are the eyes that think about it.


    --Aqua said she would definitely help.


    I was shaken by a temporary emotion, and if I did everything I could before I helped Lucia Rose, I wouldn''t have any children.


    Tiararose takes a deep breath and calms his mind.


    "Philline, get ready to write to your father and Acari. Elliot, can you magically deliver a letter?


    "We''ll be ready soon!


    "Of course."


    When Tiararose gave instructions, they nodded immediately. Filine, who was crying bewildered, wiped away her tears and ran to prepare.


    "Talmo, check the condition of the horse as soon as I have it here. Then make sure you can change trains."


    "Now!


    After listening to Aquastead''s instructions, Tiararose realizes that he is going on a ride, not a carriage.


    It''s overwhelmingly faster, and it works when something happens.


    "I go first by horse. Tiara was on a carriage..."


    "I can ride a horse too! Please, Aqua, let me come with you."


    "Tiara... okay. But it''s pretty tough, so if you think it''s impossible, say it right away. Okay?"


    Yes!


    Usually, you can travel by carriage, but Tiararose can also ride a horse. I''ve never felt so relieved to have practiced.


    I''m coming with you.


    "Keith!?"


    "Norm grabbed Lucia. I won''t forgive you."


    Unlike the quietly angry Aquastead, Keith doesn''t try to hide his feelings. I was so worried about Gnome.


    But at the same time, I think it''s very reliable.


    "Claire, you asked me to stay away."


    "... at all. Okay, don''t worry about Marine Forest."


    Ah.


    Keith is always there when something happens, and Claire laughs bitterly when she says she''s just answering the phone.


    Then Philline, who had a letter set, hurried back.


    "Dear Tiararose, the letter is ready!


    "Thank you, Philline!


    Immediately write to Akari and his father and have them send them under the two Lapis Lazuli with Elliot''s magic.


    The letter states that Lucia Rose has been taken away by the Ghost Gnome and is going to the Kingdom of Philadelphia. And I want you to tell me if you have any information.


    In the meantime, I asked you to investigate the caves and places that lead underground.


    "For now... this is all I can do. I wish I could get some information on the gnome somehow...."


    Tiararose grasped his hand and calmed his feelings. Otherwise, I would have run away right away.

 154 4. Underground Kingdom of Ellie

    The place where the ghost gnome of the earth is is called the Kingdom of Ellie.


    Most of its people are dwarfs, about 80 centimeters tall for adults, and now live underground.


    Dwarf was thought to be an imaginary creature that appeared in a picture book, but he actually lived quietly and discreetly.


    The Ellie Kingdom is a kingdom built underground with the power of the Ghost Gnome.


    It covers about a third of the underground of the Kingdom of Philadelphia and even of the Kingdom of Rapislazuli.


    Nevertheless, there are not many residents.


    It is mostly a mining site, such as ore, and its residential area is a small country that covers only about half the area of the Kingdom of Philadelphia.


    Food is traded with the Kingdom of Philadelphia to earn just what it takes to live.


    And the current location is Dwarf Castle in the Kingdom of Ellie. A castle of ore dug into a cave, it''s cool and refreshing.


    Hmmm...


    Lucia Rose, who was taken away all of a sudden, cried out loudly. The two Dwarves'' maids are desperately trying to cure it.


    They are about seventy centimetres tall, but they are adult women of honor.


    "Oh, Princess, please show me your lovely face."


    "Ah, don''t stop crying!"


    Hmmm...


    But Lucia Rose never stopped crying.


    "It''s rattling, it''s fun to hear sounds ~"


    "Without me! Ah, you''re not laughing!"


    "Ehhhhhhhhh!


    I try hard, but I can''t help it. The maids are in trouble, and see their Lord.


    "Dear Norm, where the hell is this child?


    "Aren''t you a human child... yet so young?"


    Our maids are crying because they can''t help but have no experience taking care of human children.


    "Patience," Norm said.


    "... that child is our star of hope."


    The ghost gnome of the earth speaks with a slender little voice.


    Dwarves are similarly small and about 60 centimeters tall.


    My forehair is long and my eyes are all covered. A mushroom with brown hair and a small ore crown on its head.


    He is wearing a thick cape and a waist bag containing mining tools.


    Norm strokes Lucia Rose''s crying head... but she doesn''t stop crying.


    "Aww... stop crying, please..."


    The maids rushed to the troubled gnome and said, "What''s going on? Ask for explanation.


    "... in fact, the main fire we use for blacksmithing - the flame spirit is about to disappear..."


    "Hmm!?"


    "I really had to tell you, but... I''m sorry I couldn''t tell you... but this is all my power..."


    The maids looked face to face at the depressed gnome. Lucia Rose stopped crying perfectly because she felt the serious air.


    "Oh, good girl, princess."


    "Please be quiet for a moment."


    "Ahhh...."


    The gnome caressed his chest down at Lucia Rose, who was so carefree, and proceeded.


    "We''ve been making legends with blacksmiths."


    "Yes"


    The maids nodded at Norm''s words.


    Dwarves are a family that lives with gnomes and love blacksmiths. However, I am not interested in honor, but I have just silently forged and made weapons.


    In fact, it was the dwarves who made the legendary swords in this world.


    There''s no need for such a thing because there''s no war going on right now... but for that matter, it''s going to become a household necessity... in fact, there are quite a few good items.


    "... everything we train is first-class. Although this wonderful technology has been cultivated so far, it can only be demonstrated with the fire of the flame spirit, right?


    "Yes, the Flame Spirit is a holy flame for blacksmithing. With this fire, we can build something wonderful."


    "For us, it''s essential -- it''s like water to live."


    Yes, the flame spirit is a very important fire for Norm and Dwarf.


    I can''t think of anything that happened when the fire went out. The maids think it''s not like they''re grabbing a child like this.


    "Lord Norm, for us, the Spirit of Fire is life itself."


    "Can''t you do something to keep the fire on fire?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The maid''s desperate voice shuts Gnome''s mouth once.


    "When I saw the fire of the burning spirit, oh, no more... yes, I thought"


    When I thought so - I found a big fire.


    This child is Lucia Rose. We are the saviors of Salamander, who possessed the power of fire. "


    "What do you mean...!!"


    Norm hurried to grab Lucia Rose before the fire went out.


    The maids took a serious look at Lucia Rose and shed tears. That''s all, the Spirit of Flame is important to Dwarves.


    "Good, we don''t have to lose the fire."


    "It''s horrible just to think you can''t blacksmith with the fire of the flame spirit."


    Good. Good. The dwarfs rubbed their chests down.


    "Wait, Master Norm!


    "Aren''t his parents with him?


    "Eh... uh, if you revive the fire of the flame spirit, I''ll go back to you properly...?


    The maid blues his face to a possy-talking gnome.


    "Which princess are you really ~!?"


    Dwarves screamed at the Ore Castle.


    "Tiara, His Majesty Saravia has replied. Lucia seems to be safe."


    "Really!?"


    To help Lucia Arrows, the Tiararoses are aiming for Lapis Lazuli with horses. I''m in a town on my way to stay.


    On this riding, you''ll be heading for the Kingdom of Philadelphia: Tiararose, Aquastead, Elliot, Talmo, and Keith. There are several other knights. Filine is not good at riding, so she''s going after her in a carriage.


    If you were a salamander, would you know about Lucia Rose? So I had Elliot send me a letter and I got a reply right away.


    Tiararose sat on his bed, and when he went to bed, his strength relaxed.


    "However, even Salamander doesn''t know the condition or the details. I can''t feel the magic of a particularly disturbed fire, so it seems to be calming down...."


    "I''m just glad to know that Lucia is safe. Good, Lucia... I''m going to help you right away, so wait...."


    Tiararose''s eyes became hot.


    Even if he were safe, he would be worried.


    Aquastead sat next to the crying tear rose and hugged her thin shoulders. Tiararose leans on his shoulder and gets a soft word.


    "I''ve never been away from Lucia for so long."


    Aren''t you up in the middle of the night and crying? Do you eat properly? Isn''t it terrible?


    As it stands, Tiararose is more anxious and will manage.


    "I''ve always been with you.... I want to hug you quickly."


    "... yes"


    Tiararose and Aquastead fell asleep with their hands tied together.


    In the morning, the well-dressed Tiararose performs radio gymnastics. I have been riding a horse all day, so I carefully relax.


    The Aquasteads who watched radio gymnastics at first were wondering, but now they''re doing it together.


    "But you''re getting on pretty well."


    As Tiararose watched the horse, Keith came.


    "It''s Keith. I didn''t think the Fairy King had a chance to ride a horse."


    That''s why Tiararose laughs bitterly at me not to say what I thought I couldn''t ride. Keith and the Fairy King are always magical.


    "I''ve been on a horse before. I mean, you don''t have to ride, do you? It''s strange that I can''t ride it."


    "... I see."


    --Keith is an excellent motor nerve.


    I can easily imagine that I did it without practicing. I''d rather have a little exercise nerve.


    Easily manipulating horses is daunting and dependable.


    Tiararose was talking to Keith when Aquastead and Elliot arrived.


    "Before we leave... Elliot"


    "Yes, Master Tiararose, a letter from Princess Emerald."


    "Really!? I''m glad you answered."


    Originally, I was planning to adjust the schedule slowly and visit, but I was contacting you by letter to ask you urgently about this incident.


    When Tiararose checked inside, he wrote a pleasant reply saying, "Please, don''t bother."


    "Good, now I can go to the Kingdom of Philadelphia and talk to Princess Emerald."


    "I hope there''s some clue about the Spirit..."


    It seems to be tough on Philadelphia.


    Yes, Tiararose and Aquastead were talking, and Keith joined the conversation with "That''s it."


    "Stay close and I''ll follow Lucia''s magic. It may be difficult to grasp a clear position because it''s not a marine forest, but to some extent you should know."


    "Really!? Thank you, Keith!! That''ll help."


    If we can''t detect Luciarose''s magic in Philadelphia, we need to find another location immediately.


    There is no time to waste for a moment.


    "But you can do Aqua like this, right?


    "Me? I''ve never done such a thing with much consciousness... I see, it''s worth a try."


    It may be difficult to master immediately, but it seems useful to remember it later.


    "Then I''ll tell you when I get to Philadelphia."


    "Thank you."


    Aquastead thanked Keith and he was just ready to leave. Tiararose also hurried to write a reply and have it delivered to Philadelphia first.


    Well, let''s go.


    "Yes"


    Towards Philadelphia, the Tiararoses ran with horses.

 155 5. Ask for clues

    On the way, I stayed a little in the Kingdom of Rapislazuli and came to the Kingdom of Philadelphia. The time is in the evening, and the orange sky is beautiful.


    When you cross the border of Lapis Lazuli into Philadelphia, a refreshing breeze blows through. Certainly, Tiararose thinks there is a Spirit Silf of the Wind.


    Philadelphia has a mild climate and can see many water wheels. The fields are spread out, and I can ask about the level of self-sufficiency.


    Philadelphia''s imperial castle was a lovely brick castle with a large windmill.


    As soon as the Tiararoses arrived, they were welcomed. It was the princess Emerald who greeted me.


    "Welcome, Your Majesty Aquastead. And Master Tiararose, it''s a great pleasure to see you again."


    "Thank you for the welcome despite your sudden visit."


    "I was looking forward to seeing Emerald."


    To Emerald, Aquastead and Tiararose return the greeting. And apologize for the sudden visit.


    But Emerald smiled, "Never mind."


    Emerald Philarcia, Princess of the Kingdom of Philadelphia.


    Lightly pigmented golden hair has a loose wave and is as long as the waist. Easy, yellow-green eyes. Her warmth can be seen in her face.


    A dress with several folds of cloth is reminiscent of an ethnic costume, with a jeweled circular on the forehead in the middle.


    "I''m glad I could talk to Mr. Tiararose a lot. And you guys are starting out."


    "Yes, I''m with you this time."


    When Aquastead says so, Elliot and Talmo step forward.


    "I see you for the first time, Emerald. Elliot Coralsia, close to His Majesty Aquastead. Please make sure you know him."


    This is Tarmo, Lord Tiararose''s Guard Knight.


    "Thank you both very much."


    Next, Tiararose looks at Keith to introduce him.


    --Should I keep quiet about being the Fairy King of the Forest?


    When I was worried about what Tiararose should do, Keith opened his mouth first.


    "I am Keith, Fairy King of the Forest. I have blessed Tiara and Aqua, so I accompany them."


    ©¤!


    In Keith''s words, Emerald opened his eyes wide. And immediately, I broke my hips deeply.


    "I didn''t know you were a fairy king, so I''m sorry. I am Emerald Philarcia. Please take your time during your stay."


    "Oh, thanks."


    At the end of the greeting, the maid guided me to each room.


    The indoor windows let in a pleasant breeze that tickles the long hair of Tiararose. Breathing heavily and deeply, Tiararose sat on the sofa.


    "Hmm... You''re finally in Philadelphia."


    "Are you tired? After that, we''ll have dinner with His Majesty the King, so you should rest a little."


    "No, I''m fine!


    I want to find a clue to Lucia Rose right away, so I can''t wait to get some rest. Aquastead smiles bitterly at the sight of such a tear rose.


    "I know how you feel...."


    Aquastead holds the prepared fruit water and sits next to the tear rose.


    "Almost there, His Majesty the King will have a welcome dinner party. It''s important to take a break now so we can talk about it properly. After that, I think I can move freely, so let''s find a clue to the Spirit."


    "... yes"


    Tiararose nods as she strokes her head in the gentle hands of Aquastead.


    Then I closed my eyes thinking that I would be able to get some information about Silf. Then, my drowsiness came.


    "Ah...."


    Yeah?


    "... no. I was surprised when my drowsiness hit me at once."


    "Of course I was flying that horse."


    Not surprisingly, Aquastead smiles.


    "I''ll lend you my knees until dinner time."


    "Well then, Aqua can''t sleep...."


    "I''m used to horses, so it''s okay. It''s better to touch Tiara like this."


    That''s why Aquastead pulled Tiararose to his knees.


    "Warm"


    "Looking to rest?


    "... yes. I''m going to be really well."


    Tiararose closes once again with a giggle at Aquastead''s query. Then I fell asleep immediately.


    After about an hour, it became a welcome dinner party.


    Philline hasn''t arrived yet, so I asked the maid of the royal castle to help me prepare.


    Wear lace blue dresses and marine forest coral ornaments. The hairstyle is up-style and has a different vibe.


    "Welcome to Philadelphia. Your Majesty Aquastead, Lord Tiararose. It''s good to see you."


    "It was a sudden visit, but thank you for setting up a seat like this."


    "Thank you very much. I''m so glad to see you."


    King Edmond Philarcia picked me up at dinner.


    Chestnut hair and long chin. Eyes are the same yellow-green as Emerald, and they tend to be slightly slippery as well. It has an easy-to-use system and is in its fifties.


    Emerald is a late daughter who is very cute.


    At the end of the greeting, dinner began somewhat.


    Edmond asks about this visit while talking about other people''s love.


    "It was about magic and cultural exchanges... Philadelphia is in the countryside, and I was looking forward to today."


    That''s what Edmond laughs at.


    As you can see, I''m visiting Philadelphia to have a magical and cultural exchange.


    Because it is natural to talk about history and wind-related magic.


    Aquastead smiled and shook his head, "What a country..."


    "I think the wind feels good in Philadelphia and the city around the windmill is beautiful. This wind has been around for a long time?


    "Yes, the wind is Philadelphia''s pride and is now an essential part of life. It''s a terrain with lots of high mountains and deep valleys, and the wind blows."


    "I see...."


    Certainly, the terrain would make it easier for the wind to blow.


    Aquastead thinks while swinging the topic of history to Edmond. Maybe we''ll have a silf conversation.


    "There have been fairies in Marine Forest since ancient times, and there are few such cultural properties, such as ruins. What kind of stuff does Philadelphia have...?


    "If it''s a ruin, some..."


    Edmond smiles and answers Aquastead''s questions.


    I went on talking for a while, but unfortunately I was unable to get any useful information and the dinner party ended.


    But it seemed like Edmond didn''t know about Sylf.


    Tiararose and the others returned to their rooms and took a sigh.


    "I didn''t get any information..."


    "Yeah... Your Majesty doesn''t seem to know anything."


    "I wonder if Sylf is in this country. Maybe he knows where Norm is."


    If you don''t have a clue, you have to think about your next move right away.


    But for now, we need to see if there''s any magic in Lucia Rose around here. Tiararose went up to the roof with Aquastead and Keith.


    "Keith, can you do me a favor?


    "Ah, Aqua, you too."


    "Okay."


    From now on, let''s find out if there are any signs of Lucian Rose''s magic in this country. We may not know the exact location, but we may find a clue.


    As Keith concentrated, a light of green magic appeared around him. If Aquastead does the same, a golden light will appear.


    The sight of Tiararose took her eyes by accident.


    --Wow.


    But in the meantime, I thought, "Wow! The voice echoes.


    "Is this magical light? Very beautiful."


    "Princess Emerald!?"


    Emerald looks relaxed, but the Tiararoses are in a hurry.


    Because if you''re doing something magical on the rooftop, you can''t help being suspicious. Perhaps they thought they were trying to do something harmful to the country.


    "Oh, shit, I didn''t realize you were focused on finding Lucia."


    "Princess Emerald doesn''t seem to have any indications....."


    Keith and Aquastead whispered and stopped acting.


    What kind of excuse do I have? But I was surprised by the princess before I came to that conclusion.


    "I can do it too. Hey, Sylf, give me a hand."


    When Emerald said so, light enveloped her body. Yellow-green, windy, gentle but powerful light.


    It''s going to be so beautiful and fantastic - we can''t just sit back and watch it. Because Emerald said something he couldn''t help but hear.


    "Spirit of the Wind!?"


    The voices of the three Tiararoses overlapped.


    Then Emerald blinked his eyes.


    "Oh no, did you know about Sylf? But that''s right... there are fairies in the Marine Forest, so it''s no wonder you know the Spirit exists."


    Emerald laughs bitterly but reaches out into a empty space.


    Welcome, Sylf.


    ©¤ Oh, Emerald


    After a small gust of wind, the spirit silf of the wind took Emerald''s hand and revealed itself.


    "I thought you''d think it was magic, and I owed it to Sylf. I didn''t think you''d get caught."


    "... who? These people. I don''t think one of them is human."


    Wind Spirit, Silf.


    A girl with winning green eyes with her yellow-green hair on a ponytail. Does it look like she''s in her late teens?


    I''ve been wearing costumes with high skin exposure and watching them as if they were worth stepping on.


    Tiararose was anxious not to get a good impression, but Keith next door laughed.


    "Perfect, we''ve got something for Sylf."

 156 Chapter 5.

    After a short stay in the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli on the way, we came to the Kingdom of Filarsia. It was evening, and the orange sky was beautiful.


    A fresh breeze blew through the borders of Lapis Lazuli as we entered Filarsia. Indeed, Tiararose thinks that it looks like there is going to be a wind spirit sylph.


    Filarsia has a mild climate and many water mills can be seen. The fields are sprawling and self-sufficiency is evident.


    The royal castle of Filarsia was a lovely brick castle with a large windmill set up in it.


    When Tiara Rose and the others arrived, they were immediately welcomed. The one who greeted us was the princess, Emerald.


    ''''Welcome, Your Majesty Aquastide. And Tiararose-sama, it is a great pleasure to see you again.''''


    "Thank you for welcoming me to your home despite my unexpected visit.


    I, too, have been looking forward to meeting you, Master Emerald.


    Aquastide and Tiara Rose return the greetings to Emerald. And they apologize for the unexpected visit.


    However, Emerald smiles at them and says, "Don''t worry about it.


    Emerald Filarsia is the princess of the Kingdom of Filarsia, Emerald Filarsia.


    Her lightly pigmented golden hair is loose and wavy, and is as long as her waist. Her yellow-green eyes, which tended to be calm and slack-jawed, were yellow-green. You can see her warmth from her face.


    Her dress, made of layers of cloth, is reminiscent of traditional dress, and a jeweled circlet is attached to her forehead, which is parted in the center of her bangs.


    It will be a pleasure to talk with you a lot, Tiara Rose. Also, it''s a pleasure to meet you guys.


    Yes. She''s with me this time.


    As Aquastide said this, Elliot and Talmo stepped forward.


    ''''It''s a pleasure to meet you for the first time, Emerald-sama. I am His Majesty Aquastide''s entourage, Elliot Coralcia. Please have a look around.''''


    "Lady Tiara Rose''s guardian knight, Tarmo.


    I look forward to working with you both.


    Next, Tiara Rose looks at Keith to introduce him.


    --should we keep quiet about the fact that he''s the Forest Fairy King?


    As Tiara Rose was wondering what to do, Keith was the first to open his mouth.


    ''I''m Keith, the Forest Fairy King. I''m accompanying Tiara and Aqua as I''m giving them my blessing.''''


    -Oh!


    Emerald''s eyes widened at Keith''s words. And immediately, he folded his hips deeply.


    ''''I did not know you were the Fairy King, and I apologize for my disrespect. I am Emerald Filarsia. Please take your time during your stay.''''


    Yeah, thanks.


    After the greetings, the maid showed us to our respective rooms.


    A pleasant breeze entered through the windows of the room and tickled Tiara Rose''s long hair. Taking a deep breath, Tiararose sat down on the couch.


    ''''Feng ....... I see you''ve finally arrived at Phyllalusia.''''


    ''You''re not tired?¡¡After this, we have a dinner with His Majesty the King, so you might want to get some rest.


    No, I''m fine!


    I don''t want to waste my time resting because I want to look for clues on Lucia Rose right away. Seeing Tiara Rose like that, Aquastide chuckles.


    ''''I know how you feel. ......


    Aquastide takes a seat next to Tiara Rose with the fruit water that had been prepared.


    ''''In a little while, His Majesty the King will hold a welcome dinner for us. It''s important to take a break now so that you can talk to him properly at that time. After that, I think we''ll be free to move on, and we''ll look for clues on the spirits.


    ...... Yes.


    Tiara Rose nodded as the gentle Aquastide''s hand stroked her head.


    And then she closes her eyes, hoping that she will be able to get some information about the sylphs. Then a drowsiness hit her.


    ''''Ah .......''''


    Yeah?


    ...... no. I was surprised to find that I felt sleepy all at once.


    ''It''s only natural after all that horse flying.


    Aquastide smiles, not that it''s any wonder.


    ''I''ll lend you my lap until it''s time to eat.


    That''s not going to help Aqua sleep. ......


    ''I''m used to horses too, I''ll be fine. More importantly, it''s more restful to touch a tiara like this.


    So let''s keep it that way, Aquastide pulled Tiara Rose into his lap.


    ''It''s warm,''


    Do you feel rested?


    ...... Yes. I feel so much better.


    Chuckling at Aquastide''s question, Tiara Rose closed her eyes once more. Then, she immediately fell into sleep.


    ******


    An hour or so later, it was a welcome dinner.


    Philine hadn''t arrived yet, so I asked the maids of the royal castle to help me get ready and finish the preparations.


    She wore a light blue dress made of lace and coral ornaments, a specialty of the Marine Forest. Her hair is in an updo, giving her an unusual look.


    ''Welcome to Filarsia. His Majesty Aquastide, Lady Tiara Rose. It''s a pleasure to meet you.


    Thank you for taking the time to sit down with us on such short notice.


    Thank you. It''s a great pleasure to meet you.


    We were greeted at the dinner table by the king, Edmon Filarcia.


    Chestnut-colored hair and a long beard. Eyes are the same yellow-green as the emeralds, also slightly slouchy. She has a skinny build and is in her fifties.


    Emerald is a late addition to the family, and she is very fond of her daughter.


    After the greetings, the dinner began in a relaxed manner.


    While chatting about trivial matters, Edmon asks me about my visit.


    ''It was something about magic and a cultural exchange ......, wasn''t it? Filarsia is kind of rural, and I was really looking forward to today.


    Then Edmon laughs.


    As it is now, we are visiting Filarcia to ask if we can exchange magic and culture.


    Because with these two, it''s natural to bring up the topic of history and wind-related magic.


    Aquastide smiles and shakes his head, "I can''t believe it''s in the countryside .......


    The wind is nice in Filarsia, and I think it''s beautiful to see the city landscape with its spinning windmills. Has this wind always been there?


    ''Yes. Wind is the pride of Filarsia, and nowadays it''s an important part of our life. It''s a terrain with many high mountains and deep valleys, and the wind blows.


    I see. ......


    Certainly, with that terrain, it would be easier for the wind to blow.


    Aquastide waved the topic of history to Edmon, pondering. Perhaps the topic of sylphs might come up.


    ''The Marine Forest has had fairies for a long time, and there are very few such cultural assets, such as ruins. Is Filarsia such a thing ......?


    If it''s an archaeological site, there are several: ......


    Edmon smiles and answers Aquastide''s questions.


    Then they continued to talk for a while, but unfortunately the dinner party ended without any useful information.


    But apparently, Edmon didn''t seem to know about Sylph.


    * * * *.


    Tiara Rose and the others went back to their rooms and changed and then gave a single sigh.


    ''You didn''t get any information: ......


    ''Yes ....... His Majesty Edmon really didn''t seem to know anything about it, did he?


    ''I wonder if Master Sylph is not in the country. Perhaps he might know where the gnome is.


    If you don''t have a clue, then you have to figure out your next move right away.


    But for now, it was time to make sure that there was no magic power of Lucia Rose in this area. Ciara Rose went up to the roof with Aquastide and Keith.


    ''''Keith, can you do me a favor?''''


    Yeah. Aqua, you''re with me.


    Okay.


    Now I''m going to ask you to look for signs of Lucia Rose''s magic in this country. We may not have a clear location, but we might be able to get some clues.


    As Keith focused, a pale green magical light emerged around him. When Aquastide did the same, a golden light emerged.


    Tiara Rose couldn''t help but be taken aback by the sight.


    --Amazing.


    But just as she thought that, a third party said, "It''s amazing! A voice said.


    ''Is this the light of magic?¡¡Very beautiful.


    ''''Princess Emerald!''''


    Emerald looks relaxed, but Tiara Rose and the others are in a hurry.


    Because if they were using magic and doing something on the rooftop, there was no way they would be suspicious. Maybe they thought they were trying to do something harmful to the country.


    ''Oh shit, I didn''t notice because I was so focused on finding Lucia,''


    Princess Emerald is not looking good in any way: ......


    Keith and Aquastide whispered and stopped acting once.


    What excuse should I make?¡¡But before he could come to that conclusion, the princess surprised him.


    ''I can do it too. Hey Sylv, I need a little help.


    When Emerald said this, a pale light enveloped her body. A yellow-green, windy, gentle but powerful light.


    It''s a very beautiful and fantastic picture - but I can''t just sit back and watch it. Because Emerald said a few words that I couldn''t miss.


    ''''Wind Spirit--?!''''


    The voices of Tiararose and the other three overlapped.


    Then, Emerald blinked her eyes with a snap.


    ''''Oh, my God, you knew about Sylph?¡¡But yes, ...... there are fairies in the Marine Forest, so it''s not surprising that they know of the existence of spirits.


    Emerald chuckles and reaches out into the empty space.


    ''Welcome, Sylph.''


    What is it, Emerald?


    After a small gust of wind, the wind spirit sylph took Emerald''s hand and manifested.


    ''I thought you''d mistake it for magic, so I used the sylph''s help. I didn''t expect to be found out.


    "...... who?¡¡These people. One of them doesn''t seem to be human.''


    The Wind Spirit, Sylph.


    A girl with yellow-green hair in a ponytail and victorious green eyes. Her outward appearance is probably in her late teens.


    She is dressed in an outfit that reveals a lot of skin and looks at us as if she is trying to price us.


    I was impatient that Tiara Rose didn''t seem to have a good impression of me, but Keith, who was next to me, laughed.


    ''''Just as well, we''ve got to go run some errands for Sylph.

 157 7. Undercover investigation in the Kingdom of Ellie

    No one has ever taken a strong attitude toward themselves, and the first time I touched Keith''s self, Silf - quickly fell in love.


    Everyone loses their words in unexpected surges.


    I''ve known Gnome for a long time, and I can''t raise food without him! I don''t know why I took Lucia Arrows away, because he''s just a blacksmith. "


    Sylf didn''t know Norm did that in the first place.


    ''Well, I don''t think Norm would do that.... did something happen? "


    Sylf thinks we need to look into this.


    Let''s go first. It''s already night. What do we do? I''ll always be fine.


    I said I can do it now or tomorrow.


    Honestly, I don''t think it''s dangerous to go in the dark, but it''s a precondition to go under the Lucian Arrows.


    "I want to go right away! Please, Master Sylf."


    "... okay, get ready."


    When Tiararose answered in a cannibalistic tone, Silf nodded.


    This way, Mr. Keith.


    Don''t stick around. Get away.


    Ah


    Sylph smiles and guides me, but Keith is bothering me.


    Tiararose looked at it from behind and smiled bitterly. At the rear are Elliot and Talmo.


    "Even so, there was a path to the kingdom of Norm... to the Kingdom of Ellie."


    "... yes. But please keep it a secret. They just want to blacksmith and live quietly."


    "Of course."


    The current location is at the foot of a mountain near the Philadelphia capital. Running on a horse doesn''t take 30 minutes, so it''s pretty close.


    The back of the clock cave in the mountain is said to be a sip to the Kingdom of Ellie.


    It has been about an hour since I walked carefully at my feet.


    I saw a big door and two guarded knights. Looks like Ellie''s kingdom is beyond this door.


    The knights who noticed the Tiararoses immediately said, "Who are you?" and pull out the sword with a rough voice. But Emerald stood up to control it.


    It''s me.


    "Dear Emerald!?"


    "Why in the middle of the night..."


    The knights quickly retract their swords, but show confused colors.


    But that can''t be helped either. I''ve never seen anything but Emerald before, and it''s midnight. Were you involved in some kind of suspicious incident? I can''t help thinking about it.


    Emerald smiles to reassure the knights.


    "Sometimes we need to check as soon as possible. These are my valued guests."


    "Excuse me."


    "Open the door."


    The knights put their hands on the door and opened it - but it''s hard to open it.


    "... hmm?


    "What do you mean, you always open it?"


    To the knights who couldn''t hide their confusion, Emerald said, "What happened?".


    "I''m sorry, I don''t know why... but the door won''t open. It usually opens at night."


    "We have no contact from the dwarves."


    If we don''t know why, the soldiers seem to be up to speed.


    "Is that what happened?


    I''ll try.


    As soon as Keith wondered, Silf put his hand on the door. Even if it cannot be opened by humans, it may be opened by spirits.


    Ngugugugu


    But I tried to pull the door as hard as I could, but it didn''t open. I tried to push it, but it didn''t tickle.


    Silf tried desperately to open the door, but it seems impossible.


    No, it won''t open at all! Gnomes are good at defensive magic, so it''s hard to break them. "


    "Oh no...."


    According to Silf, Tiararose blues his face.


    It''s like saying there''s a door that doesn''t open at this time, even though you''re usually free to go in and out.


    "Sylf, is there any way to get to the Kingdom of Ellie!?"


    "... not necessarily, but I have to get down from the cave in the middle of this mountain, so it''s hard.


    "Inside this mountain....."


    When Tiararose looked up, the wind blew.


    A rocky mountain with a very small proportion of trees. At first glance, you can see that it is quite difficult to reach the middle of the mountain in Tiararose, where there is little mountaineering experience.


    - Well, I just have a hunch that it''s going to be tight.


    To be a mother, you also needed physical strength.


    However, if it''s for my daughter''s sake, I can''t put on such a weak voice. When I was thinking about it, I had Aquastead''s hands on my head.


    When you look at it, all of Tiararose''s thoughts are smiles at you for foresight.


    "I''m going with Keith, and Tiara is waiting with Princess Emerald."


    "But... I''m also looking for Lucia..."


    I know that my feet and hands are tight.


    Tiararose tried to tell him that she wanted him to take him, but Aquastead hugged him gently.


    "I know how Tiara feels. But this time, I''ll leave it to my father. Tiara always does her best, so let me dress up occasionally."


    "Aqua...."


    I promise I''ll bring him home.


    As Aquastead stroked Tiararose''s back, Keith also came and stroked Tiararose''s head.


    "I''ll protect Aqua and Lucia together. Don''t worry, you''ll have to wait for your grand return."


    "When I get back, I want to eat tea treats."


    That''s good.


    The smiles spilled on Tiararose''s face when she saw the two laughing.


    "... hah. Lucia, please, Aqua, Keith."


    Without getting ready to equip, the three of Aquastead, Keith and Silf began to climb the mountain.


    Keith grabbed my arm when I thought Aquastead might be a long way away - the next moment, I was in the middle of the mountain.


    "... thank you"


    Oh.


    Keith looked around, thinking it was mostly against the rules.


    A few plants on a bare rocky mountain. There would have been a lot of cliffs and it would have been pretty tough for Tiararose to climb.


    "Hey, don''t leave me alone!


    "It''s late, Sylf. Get me to the entrance."


    I can''t help it......


    Silf, who had metastasized late, walked out of the room.


    The entrance here is enchanted, so ordinary people don''t know. Other than me, it''s about the gnome. "


    Silf stopped after walking for about five minutes.


    It''s just a rock, but it doesn''t look like a cave, though it''s very small.


    "... it seems quite clever magic. If I were alone, I might not have noticed."


    When Aquastead says so, Silf gets a little better.


    Yes, the gnomes are amazing!


    "That awesome gnome is a crowd."


    "Ah, that''s... I''ll go check with Gnome right away!


    When Sylf used his magic, he saw the entrance to the cave in the eyes of the Aquasteads.


    Let''s go. Let''s go.


    In the dark cave, the Aquasteads stepped in.


    Then we arrived at the kingdom of Ellie, the gnome we were looking for.


    The kingdom of Ellie was very lively and feverish.


    Even though it''s midnight, you can see that Khan, the sound of hitting an ore called Khan sounds, and he works day and night.


    Keith, who saw the dwarf, was surprised to see how alive he was.


    "The dwarves and we are too different in our system... are we going to be okay like this?


    It''s okay. The dwarves are familiar with the people of Philadelphia, so they won''t be on alert. "


    At least it was an Aqua Steed that I thought was like a jacket, but it doesn''t seem to be a problem.


    Besides, let''s go to Norm. They must be in the castle.


    "Yes, I''d like you to show me."


    Leave it to me. Master Keith, I''m very useful!?


    Silf approached Keith while walking majestically down the boulevard. Straight ahead, you''ll reach the Ore Castle where Norm lives.


    Aquastead, who thought he''d use a way out or something, wants to hold his head and wonder if he''s really okay... but this is certainly the fastest.


    And even as you go to the Ore Castle, you can see the sword being sold and exhibited.


    All of them are weapons and armor for the industry, and Aquastead can''t hide his surprise. Marine Forest has become a national treasure.


    However, more than that, there are a variety of agricultural tools and cooking utensils.


    Aquastead thinks the tension would increase if Tiararose were with him.


    "As Sylph said, the dwarves don''t seem to care about us."


    Well. Some say they don''t care so much except for blacksmithing..... "


    "I see.... hmm?


    Suddenly, the voices of the dwarves came into my ears.


    "The firepower in our workshop has weakened. How about yours?


    "What, you too!? Me too. Well then, it''s not a job!


    - Fire?


    Aquastead and Keith instantly realize it might be the reason they took Lucia Rose.


    With regard to the magic of fire, there is nothing to the right of Lucia Arrows.


    "I think we should check this out a little."


    "Oh, so you don''t know anything about Sylf?


    Eh!? When I say fire used by dwarves... I wonder if it means flame spirit. The flames of this country are like the source of fire used by gnomes and dwarves. I can''t put this on a blacksmith. "


    After hearing Silf''s explanation, Aquastead nodded.


    "It is highly likely that the flame spirit, weakened for some reason, is about to be revived with Lucia''s power."


    "I''m sure that''s true. Nothing is more suitable for blacksmithing than the flames of salamanders."


    Eh, does Lucia Rose mean Salamander!?


    "It''s similar. Let''s hurry!


    While rushing back to Keith, Silf found out something terrible was going on and ran toward the Ore Castle.


    There was a Dwarf soldier guarding the gates of the Ore Castle. --But that''s all that matters.


    I can''t afford it.


    "Nah, what are you guys doing!!"


    "Stop, this is Norm''s..."


    Keith took a fan from his hips and hit the wind.


    I stunned the soldiers and magically destroyed the door. Keith is more violent than usual, but I''m not going to stop him at all.


    Rather, Aquastead would have done it if Keith hadn''t done it.


    Lucia''s up there.


    "I''ll get it back now!


    When I stepped into the Ore Castle, there were many dwarves, including maids and servants. Everyone is surprised what happened, but they rush up the stairs without worrying.


    "Silf, you''re in charge!


    Eh, am I?!


    The crowd of dwarves are asking me, "What do you mean, Sylf!!" I''m sure you''ll explain this to me.


    In that gap, the Aquasteads found a room with signs of Lucian Rose''s magic and opened the door.


    "Lucia!!"


    As soon as Aquastead called out his name, he heard a cheerful laugh.


    "Ahhhhhhhh!"


    "I''m fine..."


    He went under Lucia Rose, reaching out to us with a smile, and Aquastead embraced the little treasure.

 158 8. The precious princess

    Using Wind Spirit Silf as a guide, Aquastead and Keith headed for the Kingdom of Ellie together.


    Tiararose returns to the royal castle with Elliot and Talmo, waiting for the return of the three.


    Tiararose and the others.


    "Master Tiararose, Master Aquastead will definitely help Master Lucia Rose."


    That said, Elliot offers tea to Tiararose, who is worried.


    "Thank you, Elliot.... but I''m still worried about you."


    Of course, I believe that Aquastead and Keith will bring Lucia Rose home.


    But there''s nothing else to worry about.


    Tiararose prayed for her safe return.


    Ah!


    Lucia Rose, who finally met Daddy Aquastead, smiled and hugged her with a small hand.


    "Oh, good. Show me more faces, Lucia."


    Huh?


    "I don''t think I''m hurt either..."


    As Aquastead strokes his chest, Keith strokes Lucia Rose''s head, saying, "You look fine."


    I felt relieved and breathed.


    "In any case, I didn''t expect to be taken so grand..."


    No matter what, Keith laughs.


    "Better than crying."


    And Aquastead returns it.


    Then he said, "Ah, um..."


    When Aquastead turned his gaze, there were two maid dwarves there. I know you took care of Lucia Rose because I have rattles in my hand.


    "What is your relationship with the princess?


    "I''m so happy, is it your family?


    Aquastead nods to the maid who asks her how she is.


    "I am the father of this child, Lucia Rose. Aquastead Marine Forest."


    "Father!


    "Very nice!!"


    When you name it, the maid excites.


    "Oh, wait... isn''t Marine Forest... a big power?


    "Yes, I read about it in a book. Master Norm, did you bring the princess from such an amazing place?


    Every once in a while, the two maids'' faces turn blue.


    "I didn''t know you were Princess Marine Forest, so I''m so sorry!!"


    "I haven''t scratched a single princess!!"


    The maids immediately lowered their heads and apologized for their rudeness.


    But since I apologized, I can''t forgive you... As Aquastead thought about what was going on, Lucia Arrows reached out to the maids.


    "Lucia?"


    "Princess...? Ah, maybe you want this?


    The maid shakes the rattles in his hand and shows them to Lucia Rose. Then Lucia Rose reached out, so the maid gave me the rattles.


    Looks like you like it a lot. Gripping tightly, Lucia Rose waved to Aquastead.


    "You''re good, Lucia."


    Ah!


    Apparently I wanted to show it to Aquastead.


    A closer look inside the room reveals that there are a lot of toys. Lots of cute things like rattlesnakes and stuffed toys.


    But it was the rock lion toy that caught my eye.


    - The dwarf made it?


    Or a gnome?


    Either way, Aquastead thinks it''s pretty precise. Without considerable skill, this level of completion will not be reached.


    Ah, ahh


    Luciarose reached out to the rock lion because Aquastead was watching. Looks like he wants to play with a lion.


    "No, Lucia. Mom''s waiting for you, so I''ll come home with you now. Right?"


    "Uhh... ahh"


    Lucia Arrows nodded honestly to Aquastead''s words. I suppose you could hear the word mom.


    "You know what? That''s great."


    Ah!


    Keith stares at Lucia Rose as he says so. The eyes were very serious, and Aquastead said, "What''s wrong?".


    "... the magic of Lucia has grown considerably. Probably because of contact with the gnome."


    "Then you''d better get out of here as soon as possible."


    When Aqua Steed immediately turned his heel back, Silf''s voice said, "Dear Keith!"


    "Ah, idiot! Don''t come over here!


    Huh?


    Hearing Keith''s voice, Silf stopped his feet tightly.


    "Nh, suppress your magic so it doesn''t resonate!


    Ha, ha!


    As Keith told me, Sylf suppressed his magic. This is not going to affect anything... why on earth? And tilt your neck.


    And I stared at Lucia Arrows... haha, I opened my eyes.


    That child has the magic of Salamander!? No way, such a baby... That''s why you told me to keep my magic down. "


    I see, the more Sylf nods.


    And looking seriously at Lucia Rose, I was surprised at the magnitude of its magic.


    Amazing magic. You still don''t have proper control. Besides, it looks like a pretty close line... if I hadn''t suppressed my magic, I''d be running wild. "


    If it runs wild, it will explode throughout the Ore Castle. Many people will be injured, and in the worst case, the Kingdom of Ellie may have been buried in the sky.


    I feel terrified when I think about it.


    Oh?


    "Oh, it''s okay, Lucia. I was surprised to hear it out loud."


    "Let''s go," Aquastead whispers to Keith and Silf as she strokes Lucia Rose, blinking her eyes.


    "Yeah, Tiara''s worried."


    Keith agreed, but Sylf said, "Wait."


    "Of course I''m leaving... but I can''t see the gnome... hey, don''t you guys know the gnome?


    Silf seems to have noticed the invisible gnome.


    Of course, Aquastead and Keith were concerned, but it was more important to bring Lucia Rose home than that.


    Either way, we can come back later.


    The questioned maid looks up with her eyes swimming.


    But you thought you couldn''t hide anything from Sylf. I honestly opened my mouth.


    "Well... Norm is going to see the flame spirit."


    "After that... I''m going out a little bit."


    Going out? A ghost with a pull?


    Where the hell are you? The maid shook her head, "I don''t know," she asked.


    "So the man who grabbed Lucia isn''t here?"


    "... that''s what happens. If I go to the Spirit of Fire, I may be there."


    "You can put that behind you. Let''s go back to Tiara."


    Okay.


    I have to see Norm, but Lucien Arrows has a higher priority.


    Aquastead looked up and left the Ore Castle behind.


    Ah!


    "... Lucia!!"


    When the Aquasteads returned to Philadelphia''s royal castle, tears broke out of the eyes of Tiararose, who had seen Lucia Rose.


    It''s not going to stop overflowing.


    "Ah, Lucia... Aqua, Keith, and Shilf. Thank you very much."


    Hi, Tiara.


    "There was no gnome, but I''ll punish you hard later."


    I''m back now.


    "Good, everybody''s safe."


    Tiara Rose hugs each Aqua Steed holding Lucia Rose. Relax from the bottom of your heart with the warmth of your beloved two.


    Lucia Rose also seemed relieved to see Tiararose. Even though she was held by Aquastead and smiled, her expression was distorted.


    Hmm, ahn...


    "Oh, Lucia. It''s okay, Mom and Dad are here."


    Hmm...


    "You must have been relieved to see Tiara."


    As the two cry, Aquastead gently holds the tear rose. It''s like we have two little kids.


    "I''m sorry, I can''t stop crying...."


    "You can cry as much as you want. I''ll hold you until you stop."


    "Aqua...."


    Hmm.


    Keith shrugs his shoulders as he sees the three of his family drowning in water.


    "I''ll leave you three now."


    That''s right. So, we... we didn''t have a date? Master Keith!


    "Maybe I''ll call Craig first...."


    "Ahh, I don''t feel so good...."


    Keith decided not to listen to Silf and left the room.


    "Ha-ha, I''m glad we solved this sooner than I thought."


    Keith, who came to the rooftop, stretched out and saw the mountains rising in front of him.


    I think that the place where these spirits are, while looking at the slowly rising morning sun, wants to retreat a long time ago.


    "I don''t know how it affects Lucia."


    Yeah, but...


    "I''m sorry if I don''t owe Norm a favor."


    I wanted to leave everything to Aquastead if it was a human problem. But the story is different between the Ghost Norm of the Earth and the Kingdom of Ellie.


    No one knows the kingdom of Ellie, and it is not a place where human law extends.


    Keith laughs when it''s so annoying.


    "Well, I won''t forgive you for that."


    You''re talking about things again.


    Craig.


    A gust of wind delivered Craig''s voice.


    Crail-style magic allows you to chat with distant opponents. Wherever the wind blows, you can deliver your voice anywhere.


    What happened to you?


    Lucia is safe.


    That''s good. Have you figured out what Gnome''s after?


    In response to Claire''s question, Keith tells the Dwarves of the Kingdom of Ellie what they were talking about.


    The flaming spirit used for blacksmithing is about to disappear, and I think I needed Lucia Arrows'' salamander magic to strengthen the fire.


    "And one more bad report."


    "... resonance?"


    "Correct"


    Reunited Lucia Arrows had more magic than before. That is undoubtedly what happened when Norm approached.


    As a child who is not yet able to control magic well, it is safe to say that he is in a very dangerous state.


    Keith sighs.


    "The ring still sucks up the magic, but you don''t know when it''ll break?


    I guess. That''s why I told you. Keith said, "Don''t bless Lucien Arrows..."


    "... ah, that''s what you said."


    That''s what Craig said to Keith in the woods library.


    Keith''s blessing...


    "When Lucia can''t help herself, give her the best she can... I know, that much."


    Keith chuckles that he''s going to do it without being told.


    Even if Lucien Arrows stood in the abyss of despair, he decided to help with his blessings - Keith said.


    However, the expression disappeared from Keith''s face.


    Keith?


    Craig figured something out and called Keith. After a while of silence, Keith sighed.


    "I was supposed to be home tomorrow... but it''s gonna be a bit of a hassle."


    With his tongue on his head, Keith left the roof behind saying, "I''ll be in touch again."

 159 9. Silf and gnome

    "Ha, Keith-sama is really cool... I''m so jealous of Lucia Rose, who loves you so much."


    Silf looks at the view from the window of Emerald''s room. The Lord of the room is still dreaming.


    Whether it''s your usual expression, when you''re angry, or when you''re upset, it''s all very well dressed... but the best part is the gentle smile I showed Lucia Arrows.


    Sylf thinks he wants to be turned around like that.


    "Ah, but... I brought Lucia Rose back, so I''m going back to the Marine Forest."


    Sylf is depressed when he misses it.


    "... am I going to follow Marine Forest?


    I wonder if that''s a pretty good idea, how dare Silf laugh. It''s fun to have such a moment while you live for a long time.


    The Philadelphia wind is very pleasant. I wonder how Marine Forest is blowing. "


    When you think about it, you can see your chest bouncing.


    Oh, what should I do?


    Are you sure you want to leave Philadelphia and go to Marine Forest? The more you think about it, the faster Silver''s chest sounds.


    But at the next moment, the thought was obscured by a quiet voice.


    "... Silf"


    As soon as Silf opened his eyes to the voice he heard from behind, he turned around.


    Gnome!! Do you know what you''ve done!?


    Uuu......!


    The sudden appearance of the gnome is a step back from the power of Silf.


    And while I was teasing my hand, I said the excuse "I can''t help it".


    "Without her power, the fire of the flame spirit will go out...."


    That''s why there''s something you shouldn''t do.


    "... it''s okay, I''ll return it as soon as I''m done."


    Sylf sighs heavily in reply to Norm.


    I don''t think that''s the problem.


    "It''s like a drawstring... ahh"


    ¡­¡­


    Silf walks in front of the gnome and takes the leaves that reach his hair.


    Happy birthday. I can''t believe I didn''t notice this at all... "


    Turn the leaves around and throw them out the window. In the wind, the leaves flew away.


    "Ah, thank you...."


    "You''re welcome."


    "... I knew I had to have a silf."


    That''s what Norm laughs at.


    "If it weren''t for Sylf, the Ellie Kingdom would be gone by now. Sylf has come between us and the Kingdom of Philadelphia, so we can get food. The silf is amazing...!


    I am a spirit of earth and there is a people named Dwarf¡­ Norm says nothing can be done without the help of Silf.


    It''s you......


    Not so loud, before Sylf tried to say so - Norm made a bomb statement.


    So, Sylf... I want you to resonate with Lucian Rose''s magic!


    Haaaa!?


    Sylf can''t hold his mouth open, just like Norm can''t. If you resonate magically with Lucia Rose in her current state, she will run wild.


    Sylf stares at the gnome, wondering if he knows that.


    You can''t do that!


    "I really need the magic of Lucian Rose''s fire."


    "... strengthening the fire of the flame spirit with a runaway magic? Don''t be ridiculous."


    Silf truncated the rejection without listening.


    Good judgment.


    ¨D Dear Keith!


    The wind blows and Keith turns up in the room.


    I cut the conversation with Craig because I felt the magic of earth in the venue. And I came to find a place.


    Keith stares at the gnome with his cold eyes.


    "Nice to finally meet you. How dare you grab my princess? Hey, Norm?


    ©¤!!


    Dear Keith!


    Surprised by Keith''s sudden appearance, Norm backs away.


    Who is it...?! No way... Lucia Rose''s father!? "


    Well, it''s similar.


    Because I am the daughter of Tiararose and Aquastead, who give blessings, so is my daughter.


    "Ugh... I was just going to meet Sylf in secret."


    I can''t believe I ran into Lucia Arrows'' guardian. As a result of the gnome falling, the back hits the wall of the room.


    Now we can''t distance ourselves from Keith. The Sylf next to Keith is also happening, and he won''t let us out of the rescue ship.


    "Don''t think Lucia will forgive you."


    Keith narrows his distance from the gnome and says, "What''s going on? The door opened.


    ¨D¨D


    The door next to Norm''s back was the door leading to the bedroom where Emerald was sleeping. What a bad timing, Keith whispers.


    "Um, what does this mean?


    For some reason, Emerald is confused by things like the Shura Hall in his room. And one of them is a gnome I''ve never even met.


    Norm moved faster than everyone thought.


    Ore Prison!


    Kiaaaahh


    Gnome used his magic and trapped Emerald in an ore cage. I didn''t think it would be hard, and Silf opened his eyes.


    Gnome, don''t play games!! Let go of the emerald!!


    I hate it! If Sylph had a magical resonance with Lucian Rose, he would let go. "


    What are you doing......


    Sylph grips his hand on an outrageous exchange condition.


    "... you''re kidding me. Get out of my way, Sylf."


    Dear Keith......


    Norm, let him go now.


    The air in the field becomes heavier with Keith''s voice without restraint. Tingling tightly, Sylf felt her body stopped moving.


    Oh, I''m really angry.


    Keith slowly goes to Gnome and uses his fans to use his Attack Magic. The impact blew the gnome and broke the wall - not a single scratch on the ore jail.


    "You''re not scared of my attack?"


    Keith thinks it''s just superior to defensive magic.


    I thought I''d think about my next move, but before that, the knights who heard the noise came.


    "Dear Emerald!?"


    "What the hell is going on!?"


    The knights look indoors and immediately hold their swords.


    Emerald seems to have passed out in the cage, unconscious. But the knights don''t know Silf and Norm, so Silf doesn''t have the power to do anything about them.


    The knights will know as much as Keith, a guest.


    "Ugh... Sylf, until you hear my request... I''ll keep this kid."


    The gnome rose in staggering motion, scratching away every prison of ore as it melted into the ground.


    Hearing a series of stories from Keith, Tiararose held his head. It''s the same with the Aqua Steed next door, and I wonder what happened.


    "... if Sylf doesn''t resonate with Lucia, Norm won''t let Emerald go..."


    "That''s what I''m talking about."


    The fact that Emerald is not here is a serious problem. Because Emerald was the only royal man who knew the existence of the Spirit Silf.


    The King had difficulty explaining because he thought that the silvers and spirits were ghosts.


    The Tiararoses are all together, but Silf is under house arrest in a separate room.


    "Princess Emerald needs help, but we can''t put Lucia in danger. I wish there was some way..."


    "Is it quick to solve the root cause?"


    "Is it the fire of a burning spirit?


    Ah.


    Aquastead will give you a solution to Tiararose''s words... but that''s not easy.


    The magic of Luciarose is the solution Norm thought of, so I don''t think it''s that easy to come up with a better way.


    Uhhhh, when everyone bothered, Keith opened his mouth "for now."


    "Tiara, go back to Marine Forest first. Or... is Rapis Lazuli safe? Better than being here."


    "Sure, that''s better. If we leave this problem alone and Lucia gets targeted again....."


    Aquastead immediately agrees to Keith''s proposal.


    "But... I can''t believe I''m going home first."


    I was worried about Tiararose - when I tried to put it in my mouth, Aquastead''s index finger touched my lips.


    "I know how you feel, but I can''t. Lucia''s safety is our top priority right now."


    "Ah...."


    Happy with Aquastead''s words.


    The Emerald taken by the Gnome, the state of the Sylf, the future of the dwarves... there are too many things to worry about... the smallest lives we have to protect.


    "Tiara, can you leave this to me and go back a step?


    "I see. I will protect Lucia."


    Reliable.


    Aquastead smiled and hugged Tiararose.


    Well then, let''s decide what to do next. I''m staying here and clearing things up with Norm. Talmo continues to escort Tiara. Elliot remains my assistant. "


    But then Aquastead shuts his mouth.


    Elliot wanted to be his assistant and Keith to be with Tiararose... but Keith''s face said Norm would never forgive him.


    I wouldn''t nod if I told you to go back with Tiararose.


    Aquastead has no choice but to modify the maneuver.


    "Talmo, Elliot and Tiara are waiting for you in Lapis Lazuli. However, the power of the gnome is unknown. Will you get in touch with Miss Acari and stay with me until I get back?


    "Sure, it would be nice to have Akari-sama. I''m in touch with your father and waiting for Aqua at home."


    "Oh, I''ll catch up with you soon, so don''t worry."


    "Yes"


    By the time we arrive at Lapis Lazuli''s parents'' house, we will be able to join Philline. Good timing.


    "... instead of Aquastead, Tiararose will always protect you."


    "As a guard knight, I won''t let you touch a finger."


    Elliot and Talmo nodded to Aquastead''s conclusion and immediately agreed.


    Tiararose Side doesn''t seem to be a problem now.


    "Now, about the central gnome... this is between me and Keith. Is everything all right?


    "Oh, of course. They took our princess, and they have to pay for it."


    Looking at Keith smiling, Tiararose took a breath.


    Not that I can forgive the gnome who took Lucia Rose, but when I think of these two as opponents... I feel a little sympathetic.

 160 10. Tension MAX heroin

    Tiararose, who successfully recovered Lucia Rose, came to his home in the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli.


    As soon as he arrived, his father, Schnauss, came up to Tiararose and Luciarose.


    "Tiara, Lucia, good to see you!I was in a hurry when I got the letter, but I''m glad I''m okay.... "


    Shunaus said "good" again and again, relieved.


    "Aqua-sama is with us.Look, Lucia. "


    Um...


    Lucia Rose answers Tiararose''s questions with a smile.Schnauss is a melodramatic grandson.


    Tiararose called Elliot and Talmo, laughing bitterly at it.


    "This time, two and a few knights are together.Until Aqua and Keith come back, thank you very much. "


    "We''re out of time.Thank you for your help for a while. "


    Thank you very much.


    As Elliot and Talmo thanked him, Schnaus nodded.


    "Oh, of course.I have a room, so it might be difficult to say... slowly, but I don''t mind if you let me go. "


    "Thank you."


    There was also tiredness in the carriage, and I decided to take my time in my room until dinner.


    "Uuuu...."


    When Tiararose and Lucia Rose returned to the room together, Lucia Rose rubbed her eyes as if she were asleep.


    Oh, you''re asleep.


    To take a nap, Tiararose takes Lucia Rose to her bedroom.Then there was already a crib.


    Looks like Schnawes has prepared it for Lucia Arrows.


    "Father..."


    Everything you might need for your lovely grandson.


    It''s amazing how many kinds of toys, clothes, and even blankets are installed in the garden, starting with the crib.


    --Although I''m not old enough to play yet...


    When I get a little older, I think I''ll bring Lucia Rose back to play.


    And the whole house was perfectly refurbished.


    The dangerous corners are rounded and the steps are loose.In addition, a fence was installed in front of the stairs so that Lucia Arrows would not fall down even if she was free to move around.


    Exactly, it''s exhausting.


    While I was sleeping in Lucia Rose, I heard a knock in the room.


    "Dear Tiara-sama! It''s me, it''s acari!! I got a letter and came here!


    Akari-sama! Here you go. "


    Acari Lapislazli Lactomuto, owner of a vibrant voice.


    Glossy dark hair and bright black eyes.The heroine of this game in a cute pink dress.


    He is now married to the main offensive character Hartnites and lives in Lapis Lazuli.


    As Akari entered the room, she looked around the room, "Lucia!?"


    "Lucia is taking a nap.Will you play when you get up?


    "Ah, I''m sorry!I''ll play a lot when I wake up!! "


    He also brought a new toy for the souvenir, and Acari took out the colorful building blocks.


    Wow, cute.


    There are round, square, triangle, moon, stars, flower shapes, etc., and it''s fun to just watch.Lucia Rose would be delighted.


    "Sure! I want to play with you soon!"


    "Yeah."


    Tiararose prepares tea and cake.


    And in tea, he told Acari that he was the kingdom of Philadelphia.


    "Uh-huh, there''s a dwarf in the basement!? Wow, I miss you!


    After hearing Tiararose''s story, Acari sparkled his eyes.Apparently, the fantasy element has become tense.


    "Besides, I can''t believe I even met Sylf and Gnome of the Spirit!!"


    "I''ve only met Mr Silf."


    "Ah, that''s right.But it''s amazing to see Sylf.That''s good, I want to see you too. "


    Can we dig a hole in the ground and go to the Ellie Kingdom?What a terrible thing to say about acari.


    "Exactly, that''s a bit...."


    I''m kidding.


    Tiararose smiled bitterly and her cheeks swollen.I won''t do anything so stupid!and.


    --If it''s acari-sama, I''d really do it...


    Run as soon as you remember! In this style, I try to do even more reckless things.


    For that reason, there were many times when I thought it was a joke.


    But it''s kind of a waste.


    Huh?


    Tiararose leans his neck against the words of Acari.


    "Gnome and dwarf technology.It''s always been a dwarf to make the best weapon. "


    Besides, there''s a gnome at the top of it.


    "If we really make weapons, what can we do?Not interested?Dear Tiara, "


    "I''m not good at every fight....."


    "Hmm...."


    Tiararose replied with a rash.


    The weapon is a man''s romance.


    "We are women, Akari-sama...."


    That''s what I''m saying.


    While swinging his sword, Acari shouted "Legendary Sword!"


    "But I''ve never seen Akari-sama using a sword.


    Clams fight magically, so they don''t have weapons.In the first place, Tiararose thinks that a staff is better than a sword if you fight with magic...


    "Well, that''s right... isn''t there a chance for you to change your job to a magical swordsman?


    "There are no job settings for this game"


    "That''s right!


    Gahn! And the acari are in shock.


    "Eh, I thought it was cool.Norm''s sword would make me a brave man. "


    "If you''re too indifferent, Your Highness will be worried."


    Since marrying Acari, Hartnites has shaken up quite a bit.As it stands, it looks like a hole will be made in his stomach.


    "Ha ~. In the meantime, I''m glad Lucia is safe.If anything happened, I would have gone to destroy my country ~ "


    "Don''t say anything horrible when you sacrifice."


    I don''t know if I''m kidding or not.


    Acari is mocking the cake while laughing.


    "... but I''m not lying.I''m not the kind of person who can hurt and laugh at my best friend''s children. "


    "Dear Acari-sama...Thank you very much. I''m surrounded by trustworthy people, and you''re very blessed. "


    Tiararose''s eyes became hot.


    "There''s me and Aqua-sama, and whatever happens, it''s absolutely fine!I''ll buy all the fights that are sold!


    So don''t worry, the acne will tighten your chest.


    Then I heard a voice from the bedroom saying, "Hmm."I think I just woke up from a nap.


    "Lucia!


    The acari flashed his expression and smiled, "I''ve met you!"


    Bringing Lucia Arrows, the Tiararoses moved over the rug mat.You can also play with Lucia Rose here.


    "My acari sister gave it to Lucia."


    Ah?


    Lucia Rose stares at her with a colorful twist in front of her.Maybe you''re thinking about what to do.


    After some observation, I slowly reached out and grabbed the star grasp.


    Ah!


    Turns out it''s a toy, Lucia Rose waves her arms with a happy grip.That alone seems to be fun enough.


    "Wow, Lucia is so good!Play with your sister, Akari. "


    Ah ~


    The acari grabbed the flowers with joy when they gave them to Lucia Rose.I clashed with the claws of the stars that I had.


    "Nh ~, is it still difficult to make something with a stick?"


    "That''s impossible.I don''t think it''s enough to play with it like this. "


    I''m looking forward to growing.


    "Yeah."


    I enjoyed hanging out for a while.


    At night, Tiararose dives into bed with Lucia Rose.


    Acari is staying in the guest room, Tarmo is escorting, and Elliot is resting.In addition, several knights are watching around the Mansion.


    If you think you can finally spend time with Lucia Rose, now there''s no Aquastead.


    "I''m not used to nights without Aqua."


    I wonder what''s going on by now.


    Do you eat properly?Are you hurt? I hope it''s not too rough... and I''m worried about Aquastead.


    I want you to come home soon, hug and kiss me.


    I wonder if I think like that... because I miss you.


    "... no, Aqua is working hard for Lucia.I''m the only one like this..... "


    Tiararose murmured if it wasn''t tight, and Lucia Rose, who was sleeping next door, woke up.


    Ugh?


    "I''m sorry, Lucia. I woke you up."


    Ah.


    Lucia Rose smiles like she says it''s okay.


    I turned around and fell facedown.I crawled towards Tiararose and touched him with my little hand.


    "Lucia....."


    Tiararose loosens the cheeks for a touch of Lucia Rose.


    "Thank you, you''re cheering me up."


    Hmm...


    "It''s all right," Tiararose smiles, holding Lucia Rose smiling.


    "Let''s wait and believe in Dad.Keith is with us, and we have two of Marine Forest''s strongest men. "


    I get anxious, but honestly, I can''t imagine someone who can beat these two.


    Rather, I''m more worried that Keith won''t brawl at anger.Keith loves Lucia Rose so much.


    Come on, let''s get some sleep, Lucia.


    Um...


    Tiararose strokes Lucia''s hair and sings a lullaby song with a calm voice.May you sleep slowly.


    "Shake the flower cradle and sleep with a good boy ?"


    "Ah...."


    Lucia Rose, who listened to the babysitter song, fell asleep immediately.


    Tiararose prayed for the safety of the Aqua Steeds as she watched their lovely sleeping faces.

 161 11. People you care about

    When Norm took Princess Emerald back to the Ore Castle, the maids blued their faces.Even so, I grabbed people again.


    "Dear Norm, for the sake of God!What the hell are you doing!


    "Which princess is it this time!!"


    Besides, unlike Lucia Arrows, she''s in Ore Prison.Besides, you seem to be out of your mind.


    This magic is named Prison, but it is safe to prevent any attack while inside.


    However, it is not possible to enter and exit at the will of the person who is inside.


    Gnomes silence at the words of maids.


    I can''t say I took the Princess of the Kingdom of Philadelphia.They trade food with the Kingdom of Philadelphia, so it''s a very important country for the dwarves.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The maids hold their heads when they see a gnome that says nothing.


    "For the time being, why don''t you let him out of here?


    "It''s safe inside, but it''s cramped."


    The maid says that the Ore Castle is not in danger, so it''s better to let it out, but the gnome shakes his head and refuses.


    "I let this kid go because Sylf asked me to."


    "Would you please do me a favor...?"


    "... yeah. I''ll rest in my room for a while, so don''t let anyone near me."


    The maids looked at each other like a gnome who said so.


    Master Norm, you seem to be overwhelmed.


    "You must be worried about the fire of the flame spirit.Norm, of course, but it''s also very important to us Dwarves. "


    The maids were silent for a while and immediately shook their heads.


    "Let''s set up a room so that this princess can come out whenever she wants."


    "Yeah, that''s it."


    I was hoping to get the room ready soon, but Emerald, who was in the Ore Cage, woke up.


    My eyes twitched and stirred many times.But no one in this room knew Emerald, and I realized that no one would come to help me by screaming.


    "Ah, um..."


    When Emerald spoke, the maid shook her shoulders in a panic.I''m sure you didn''t expect to wake up so soon.


    "What should I do? The princess is awake."


    "Norm''s gone, and we can''t let him out."


    Speaking of which, how many people can I talk to?


    After seeing the maids in trouble, Emerald decided to have a chat that seemed unreasonable.


    "Ah, um... I''m Emerald.Dwarf''s maid... right?


    "Yes, we''re maids...."


    "Aren''t you surprised to see the dwarf?


    Ordinary people will feel weird when they see dwarfs.Different ears, different from ourselves.Some people just refuse to react.


    "It''s okay," Emerald smiles.


    "I''ve met the dwarf a few times.Sometimes it''s a contract before we make a deal...I''ve been to the city with Sylf. "


    Well...


    The maids gave a voice to Emerald''s words.The Ellie kingdom comes because only a few people are really in the Philadelphia kingdom.


    "Are you the Princess of the Kingdom of Philadelphia?


    "... yes"


    Emerald didn''t intend to reveal himself, but he was already discovered.


    Perhaps it would be better to ask this straight away.


    "Why did you bring me here?He''s a man of no power or power. "


    The fire of the Fire Spirit was originally a great flame that could be seen from anywhere in the Ellie Kingdom.But now it''s getting smaller, and it''s getting smaller up to a few meters.


    Gnome sits in front of the Spirit of Fire and stares at the burning state.


    "If you don''t hurry, it''ll disappear..."


    It was the power of the flames that I found, but it was recovered.


    I wish Sylf would do me a favor....


    If Lucia Arrows and Sylf share magic, I''m sure that little body won''t be able to control it.


    At that stage, it is a maneuver to resurrect the flame by sucking the overflowing magic into the flame spirit.It''s a maneuver, but it''s not working at all.


    If we don''t do something about it before it disappears, our country will be gone...


    Hey, what does that mean?!


    Silf!?


    Reacting to the murmuring, Gnome opens his eyes in surprise.And from the silf staring at me... I''m distracted.


    But it''s not a silf that forgives it.


    Gnome, explain!If you don''t tell me, I won''t know!! "


    "I wonder why Sylf is here...!The magic of Lucian Arrows..... "


    I''m here to talk to you!


    Eh......


    In Silf''s words, Gnome blinks.


    "You know, how long do you and I have been dating?Of course, Emerald is a dear friend, so I''ll get it back, but you want to blacksmith, but I don''t think you can grab people just for that.If you have a reason, please talk to me before you do it...!! "


    ......!


    Tears float in my eyes.


    Norm rubbed his eyes on his sleeve and started talking about the fire of the flaming spirit.


    The spirit gnome of the earth was born in the mine.


    It had a hard body that could protect itself from the outside enemy and an ore - a flame spirit.Norm soon learned what a flaming spirit was.


    "... this is the power of the Gnome until now."


    There is only one spirit of the same kind in the world.


    Among them, substitution is also performed.At that time, I was powered by the next generation of spirits, but in the case of gnomes, it became a visible form of ore.


    That is where the existence of a gnome loves blacksmithing.


    If you use the Spirit of Flame to light a fire, you can make a great weapon......


    I can tell by instinct.


    This ore has been used by generations of gnomes to ignite fires for blacksmiths.Instead, my powers are inferior to other spirits.


    But with this, you''ll be fine.


    Build your own forgery.


    Norm thought so and lit the fire of the Spirit of Fire near the mine where it was born.


    Mine ingredients in mines, make weapons¡­ I''ve been living like this for years, and I''ve found someone who''s been attacked and fallen by a traveling bandit.


    As a result of his immediate help, Norm became acquainted with the human being.And the sword he had was a very good substitute - it took away his eyes.


    Who made this sword!?


    "Eh, this is it... uhn..."


    Humans are confused and wonder if it is okay to answer that question.Because the sword was made by a dwarf.


    They didn''t like to appear in public, and they didn''t like being told to make weapons by people who didn''t know how to make them.


    "But you are my benefactor.If you promise not to say anything else, I''ll tell you. "


    Of course.


    When Norm nodded, he told me that there was a race of people who loved dwarf blacksmiths.


    A lot of swords and equipment are made there, and many people aim to have weapons made if they wave their swords.


    Dwarf... I''d love to meet you.


    "It''s a difficult race, but if you''re kind, you might be able to get along."


    After hearing the story, Norm came to the place where the dwarf lived with a flame spirit ore.The sound of the iron striking Khan Khan, day and night, excited Gnome''s heart.


    Gnome, who loved blacksmithing, was quickly accepted and spent every day blacksmithing with the dwarves.


    Norm''s fire-enhanced weapons became a national treasure, and the dwarves shook their arms.


    Years, decades, centuries¡­.


    When the dwarves ran out of life, the gnomes stopped growing when they reached some appearance.


    Those dwarfs also realized that Gnomes were not the only ones.And I found out that there was a ghost gnome of earth.


    Norm spent hundreds of years with the dwarves blacksmithing.I couldn''t get used to watching my long-lived companions die, but everyone passed away with a smile thanking them for meeting Norm.


    About 100 years have passed since then.


    The number of humans has increased and the dwarves have begun to be treated as heterogeneous.They are just blacksmiths and live, and nothing bothers them.


    Even so, the humans became stronger against the dwarf.Dwarfs who were out were attacked by humans, causing more injuries.


    "Don''t be ridiculous, what the hell did we do...!!"


    "That''s right. They don''t just use the weapons we make."


    "The sword decorated in that castle is a sword made by my grandfather!


    What a terrible thing to do, the dwarves grieved.


    His smiles disappeared every day from the dwarves, and he could not hear the sound of the iron pounding.


    Well then, that''s no good.... let''s go where there are no humans. "


    It was the Wind Spirit Silf that helped me then.


    I ran into her while collecting food in the woods.Then I met him once in a while and became a friend to talk nonchalantly.


    Norm decided to use the power of the Flame Spirit Ore to create a new country.


    Normally it was within Gnome''s reach, but I couldn''t help but create a country to live with the dwarves.


    Norm laid the fire of the Spirit of Fire on the ground, and unleashed its power.


    Then, you''ll be attacked by a feeling that your magic has slipped out of your body.I thought it was scary, but much better than being persecuted by humans and no place to live.


    "Control the fire of the flame spirit and build a kingdom."


    Then, the ground drops around the place where the fire of the Spirit of Fire existed.


    "It''s okay," Gnome tells the annoying dwarves to calm down.


    Even if you''re on the ground, you''ll only be found by humans, so let''s build a country underground.The name is... "Ellie Kingdom".It''s our new country. "


    "... at this time, I got a lot of help from Silf.The people of the kingdom of Philadelphia were kind, and the dwarves gradually became able to accept humans. "


    That''s right, it''s going well.


    Yeah.


    Well, that went well.


    But the Flame Spirit, who left my hand, kept using its power for as long as it kept burning.When I realized it, I was already exhausted to the point where I couldn''t help it. "


    Accept if only a part of your power is lost - but as it is, the country created from the ore of the Spirit of Fire will be crushed and buried in the ground.


    "I want to protect the dwarves."


    Gnome saw the silf with his faithful eyes.

 162 12. Lucia Roses Flame

    Aquastead and Keith were preparing to go back to Gnome, but they couldn''t see Silf.


    "Keith, don''t you know Master Silf?


    No?


    When I was about to go to Norm, Sylf was gone.


    What if you came alone to help Emerald?I thought it was impossible to break the Gnome''s defense.


    "Norm and I were like old friends, so you went to persuade them?


    "That''s fine, but it could be the worst."


    Doesn''t that mean Sylf has a magical resonance with Lucian Rose?It is assumed that I refused, but I can''t tell you that I won''t.


    I think we should hurry.


    I''ll fly in a flash.


    Ah.


    Keith took Aquastead to Norm''s Ore Castle.


    At Tiararose''s parents'' house, I''ve been playing with Tiararose and Lucia Rose, Acari, and Darrell since this morning.


    "Yikes! Lucian-chan can''t walk well!"


    Ah!


    Now acari is practicing walking while holding Lucia Rose''s hand.


    Hmm, ah


    Darrell smiles and claps his hands as he sees Lucia Rose walking around.


    Darrell Lapis Klamentir, the brother-in-law of Tiararose.


    Light blue hair with natural perm and blue eyes.With a gentle and gentle look, he is a very powerful healing magician.


    While pregnant with Lucia Arrows, Tiararose was helped many times by Darrell''s healing magic.


    Even though Lucia Arrows staggered several times along the way, Tiararose, who was watching alongside her, quickly followed her.


    "Nyah!"


    "Oh, what''s wrong, Lucia?"


    Lucia Arrows hugged me because I was happy to be supported by Tiararose.The smile at that time was so cute that Tiararose became mellow.


    "Lucia loves Mommy ~"


    Cute and cute, the acari strokes Lucia Rose.


    Ah!


    Lucia Arrows also smiled at the acari and raised her hand.


    "Ah, do you want a hug?I''ll do anything for you.


    "Master Akari?


    Huh?


    Tiararose leaned her neck to the acari, who stopped her words.Then, did you imitate it? Lucia Rose also scratched her neck.


    The appearance is cute, and Tiararose, Acari and Darrell are stunned by three.


    "Oh dear, dear Tiara-sama!There are cracks in the protective ring!! "


    "Eh!? That''s not hard!


    Hurry up and take Lucia Rose''s hand, and as Acari said, the ring of defense is cracked.If left as it is, it may break.


    "... is it because of Norm''s resonance?"


    Tiararose looked seriously at Lucia Rose and prayed that nothing else would happen.


    "How about making a ring again?


    "... it seems that the ring can no longer withstand Lucia''s magic, so even if it is new, it will soon be in the same condition.It seems like we need a more fundamental solution. "


    Darrell shook his head and wondered if there was any other way.As it stands, magic will run wild without resonance.


    "I don''t think this is such a convenient item...."


    "I wish I could accept Lucia''s magic."


    "I hope it''s an item that''s looking for magic somewhere...."


    The three of them worried, and the acari opened their eyes and grabbed Darrell''s hand.


    "That''s it!!"


    Huh?


    Darrell leaned back for a moment to the acari that had been eating so fast.But it''s not acari who let go of his hand because of that.


    "There''s something just right!


    "Huh?... Akari-sama, maybe?"


    "Yes, maybe!Yes, Dear Tiara-sama. "


    The smile disappeared from Tiararose''s face in an instant.


    Darrell trembled when he saw it, but immediately looked at the acari and asked why.


    "As far as Tiara''s reaction is concerned, I don''t think it''s a very good idea...."


    Shouldn''t we stop it for the time being?Darrell said.


    "But I don''t think there''s any other way...."


    "Is that how you do it?


    Against Darrell, who never heard of him, Akari laughed a lot.


    "Of course, I''ll let that flame spirit ore suck Lucia''s magic!


    "Nh...?


    What''s the matter, Aqua?


    "No, I''m kind of chilly, but... it''s my fault."


    Somewhere I don''t know, something''s going to happen... like that hunch.And I thought it was a mistake to call acari under Tiararose.


    After successfully arriving at the Ore Castle, Aquastead and Keith began searching for Gnomes.But apparently not in the Ore Castle.


    "So what, huh?It has the magic of a silf. "


    Keith followed the signs and said that there was a Silf who had disappeared from the city.I don''t know what you''re doing, but maybe you''re with Norm.


    The two ran under the silf.


    The flames that were burning brightly toward the sky have now become quite dull.


    The flames of the Flame Spirit''s Ore are smaller and only about the level of fire.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Norm and Silf saw the fire and heard a crackling sound.This country made of flame spirit ore is about to collapse.


    "Hey, what''s going on?


    Dear Keith!


    Seeing Aqua Steed and Keith come, Sylf glowed his face... and quickly lowered his eyebrows.


    That''s not when Keith is happy to be here.


    "Is that the fire of the flame spirit...?


    "It''s a lot smaller."


    Aquastead''s questions and Keith''s exploring words.


    Gnome thought, "... it''s going to disappear soon."But that''s not all.


    We will destroy this country together.


    "What...?


    "Huh? You want to get involved and blow yourself up?


    Aqua Steed with his eyebrows closed and Keith questioning.But the gnome has given up, and I will not change its expression.


    That makes Keith even more frustrated.


    "You...."


    "Wait, Master Keith!


    However, a silf split between Keith and Norm.Her eyes were filled with tears, as if she were different from the one she had seen in the royal castle of the Philadelphia kingdom.


    "Please, this country... help Norm and Dwarf."


    Sylf?


    Aquastead and Keith heard from Silf about the founding of the Kingdom of Ellie and the ore of the Spirit of Fire.


    Several supplements came in from Gnomes along the way, but after all, when the Flame Spirit Ore disappears, the whole country collapses and buries itself alive.


    Things are worse than I expected.


    Aquastead sends his gaze to the Flame Spirit Ore.


    Originally, it would have burned a fairly large amount of light, but now it is so thin that the fire is almost extinguished.


    "Does touching this really suck the magic away...?


    "... uhh, yeah"


    Listen to Norm''s reply and Aquastead touches the test.Then, they did suck up the magic.


    But the flame spirit glowed in an instant, and immediately the light fell out.


    Apparently, the power to absorb, store, and place is limited to Fire.


    "It seems true that Gnome says he needs the magic of fire."


    Keith whispers and asks Aquastead what to do.


    "It''s none of our business, so just get back on the ground."


    "Oh, that''s the best I can do."


    Apologies to Norms and dwarves, but Aquastead is the king of the great Marine Forest.


    If we are to be buried alive and die here, we must escape immediately.But at the same time, I don''t think we should abandon the dwarves here.


    However, we don''t know how much longer the fire will go out.Perhaps the country will collapse before the evacuation ends.


    "... I can''t help thinking about it.Immediately issue an evacuation order.Sylph is with the Philadelphian kingdom - yes, without Princess Emerald. "


    Silf has no interaction with royalties other than Emerald, so now that she''s trapped in the gnome, she can''t bridge.


    "Norm, release Princess Emerald.I want her to have a place where the dwarves can evacuate. "


    "... Sylf won''t do anything for me, okay?"


    Gnome snips his fingers and an emerald ore jail emerges from the ground.


    "©¤!? Silf!! And His Majesty Aquastead and Keith!


    Emerald! Thank goodness you''re safe.


    As soon as Silf rushed under Emerald, the prison door opened and Emerald was freed.


    But the next moment, the ground where Emerald and Silf stood cracked.


    "Haah!


    Emerald was about to fall into that crack, and Silf blew a blast of wind.Then Emerald''s body floated in space.


    While relieved that it didn''t fall, Sylf''s face turned pale in an instant.


    "Sylf! I''m saved - what''s wrong?


    I lied!? I''m sorry, Keith-sama...I''m using magic right now... it''s like it''s resonating... "


    "©¤!?"


    In the worst case scenario, Keith throws up a rumor that "shit."


    And even worse - the Ellie kingdom will be buried, and even the Flame Spirit Ore will be gone.


    "Aqua! I don''t have time for the dwarves in this situation!Make up your mind as King and go to the ground now - under Lucia. "


    "Ah, but there''s a way to do something about the magic of Lucia at stake -"


    I''ll take care of it.


    Keith answers Aquastead''s concerns without putting his hair in it.


    --It''s hard to leave the dwarves behind, but there''s nothing I can do about it.


    "Okay. Believe Keith and get on the ground right away."


    Back.


    That was the Aqua Steed I was about to say, but the walls of the ceiling just above me collapsed, so the words got clogged.


    It was more serious than I expected - I thought so, but it caught my face with a powerful weather voice.


    "Wow! There really is a country underground, wow!


    "Akali-sama, please join Aqua."


    Tiara?


    Aquastead runs out of sight of his wife appearing in front of him.At the same time, I noticed the condition of the daughter holding Tiararose.


    "Aqua! The magic of Lucia...!!"


    Huh, huh huh?


    Is magic running wild?In this state, I had it well. "


    Tiararose reports a hasty encounter.


    Luchiarose''s ring was cracked and needed quite urgently.Therefore, I took the suggestion that I should let the Ore of the Acari Flame Spirit suck magic.


    And with the magic Silf used earlier, both the Ring of Defense and the Ring of Attack were shattered.


    "I didn''t think I could hold it back with a ring my whole life, but I didn''t expect it to break so fast!Dear Aqua, let me suck Lucia''s magic with the Flame Spirit Ore!! "


    "Okay!


    Aquastead receives Luciarose from Tiararose and goes under the Flame Spirit Ore.There''s also a gnome.


    Lucia Rose......


    "... this is not to help you.Lucia''s magic is on the run, so I can''t help it. "


    Still, it doesn''t matter.... thank you, I''m glad the dwarves don''t have a place to live anymore... "


    Norm takes the Flame Spirit Ore and brings it before Lucia Arrows.


    Lucien Arrows breathes in agonizing shallow breaths due to the sudden increase in magic.


    Please touch this.I''m sure that powerful magic will calm down...No, I''ll calm down.... "


    "Lucia, touch this stone.That way, you''ll suck up the magic. "


    Ah?


    Aquastead gently touches Lucia Rose''s hand and together touches the Flame Spirit Ore.Then, the magic of Lucia Arrows, which was about to explode, was sucked into the ore of the Flame Spirit.


    Oh, good.


    And everyone was relieved.


    "Fufu, my operation has been a great success!


    "You''re smart, but how did you get here?


    Keith questions the acari.It shouldn''t have been such an easy place to come.


    "If you dig a hole in the ground, what a bingo!It was. "


    "-What?"


    Keith wanted to hold his head when he signed the buoy.


    Lucia, good luck.


    Ugh ~


    Tiararose holds hands on the back of the Aqua Steed and watches the magic of Luciarose absorb into the Ore of the Spirit of Fire.


    Until recently, Tiararose also felt the magic of the tingling Lucia Rose, but it became much looser.


    - Good, looks fine.


    Tiararose was about to burst into tears, but when I saw what happened the next moment - I opened my eyes.


    The Flame Spirit Ore can''t stand the huge magic of Lucia Arrows... it''s crushed to pieces.


    ©¤ Yes?


    Gnome''s eyes became bright.

 163 13. Like a miracle

    It seems that I couldn''t stand the magic of Lucia Arrows, and the ore of the Spirit of Fire broke apart.


    Looking at it, Keith chuckles.


    "Ha, don''t be afraid that the power of the toddler is stronger!Hey, Gnome. "


    "... I can''t believe it..."


    Norm is desperate with his hands on the ground.


    According to the plan, if the magic of Lucian Arrows were poured into the ore of the Flame Spirit, the magic would be restored for hundreds of years.


    Instead of resurrecting - the Ellie kingdom will collapse like this.


    "Whatever path you took, the result was the same..."


    Is it because I was immature?Or did I have to find a better way to live with humans?


    Well, either way, it''s too late.


    "Eh!? In the meantime, Lucia seems to be fine... she''s sleeping well."


    "The magic reaction is normal, and it seems to have calmed down."


    The acari also looked at Lucia Arrows and said, "It''s okay!"and pushed my thump.


    "The magic of Lucien Arrows will never run wild."


    "I''m relieved."


    Elliot and Talmo, who were together, smiled at Lucia Rose''s face, which had fallen asleep.Everyone was worried about Lucia Arrows.


    I was gathering as much information as I could on the Spirit and looking for the best way for Lucia Arrows.


    Nevertheless, this time it was completely unexpected...


    "Well, at the end of the day, it''s a complete victory!


    This settles one thing!To create an atmosphere like acari, Sylf says, "I have to run!"and roughed up his voice.


    Huh?


    The Flame Spirit Ore is what supports this country.The fact that it broke apart means this country will collapse!! If we stay like this, we''ll all bury ourselves alive. "


    "Ehhhhhhh!?"


    The acari cries out when it''s tough.


    But can we escape the underground kingdom that lies deep in this earth now?And acari thinks around in his head.


    If we make a quick metastasis or dash, they''ll be able to escape.


    But there''s not enough time to blame all the dwarves.


    "With this happy game, you can''t end up like that!


    Acari thinks the dwarf must be happy.


    "Running away would crush the dwarf kingdom... why don''t you try to stick this flame spirit ore somehow!?"


    "Akari-sama!?"


    Tiararose was surprised to say such a rude thing.


    Tiararose has no idea how to attach broken ore.Even if it is done in the first place, will equipment be needed?


    When Tiararose thinks a lot, the acari begins to ask Gnome.


    "Gnome, is there any way!?"


    Eh!?


    The acari shakes the fallen gnome and says, "Don''t give up yet!"and drink.


    "I''m heroin, I''m absolutely fine!We will not die!! "


    Er... yes...Um, if I had a powerful ore or gem, I could use my magic to repair the Flame Spirit Ore.... "


    Unfortunately, however, there is no such convenience here.


    That kind of thing is very rare, and I can''t even see it that way.That''s why it''s impossible to attach the Flame Spirit Ore...Run. "


    Saying it''s unrealistic, Norm pushes back the acne.If you stay here, you''ll die, so go back to earth.


    Damn it, Gnome seems to be staying for the last time with the Ellie Kingdom.


    In that position of the gnome, the acne swells its cheeks.


    "If I were dead, I wouldn''t be able to do anything..."


    Why don''t you take care of your life, Akari grips your fist.


    But the fact that you can''t save your friends... certainly creates a feeling of helplessness.


    Acari also wondered if he could save Norm for each Ellie kingdom if he had more power.


    "I''m a heroin... and it''s useless."


    "... that''s not true, Acari-sama."


    "Dear Tiara-sama...?


    Tiararose puts his hand on the shoulder of an unusually depressed acari and smiles, "It''s okay."


    The acari rubbed her eyes, which were about to tear, and she seriously looked at Tiararose.


    "Perhaps Tiara-sama has a plan?


    "... just in case"


    "Sa, Sa, Sa... Sasu, the villain lady who dropped the main part of the sequel!! I can''t believe there''s a way out, Tiara-sama ~!"


    The thrilled acari hugs the tear rose.Everyone, including the dwarves, will be saved.


    But how on earth?And acari leans her neck.


    Tiararose took out what he had with him... for the time being.


    A sparkling red jewel.


    "I wonder if we can fix it now."


    "Eh....?


    Seeing what Tiararose took out, the gnome rose up and ran as he was about to fall under the Tiararose.


    Hold your long forehair with your own hands and open your eyes in a tight amount to see it.


    "Eh, no way... did that salamander... cry?


    "I just got it, that''s all."


    Is that so...?


    Very rude, but certainly not in the case of a strong girlfriend showing tears.


    What Tiararose showed was a jewel from Saravia - "Salamander''s Tears".


    Can you use this to repair the Flame Spirit Ore?


    If it''s the tears of a salamander, you can.... but is that okay?This is a very precious gem.Maybe there''s only one thing in the world.... "


    Tiararose recognises that the trembling voice of the gnome is truly precious.


    But if that''s true - I wonder if Salamander''s tears should be used now.


    "I don''t mind. This must have come under me for today."


    "... I''m the one who grabbed Lucia Rose, thank you, thank you... Tiararose"


    Receive salamander tears from Tiararose and the gnome rises.


    "Now... I''ll light the flame spirit ore again."


    "Let us help you too."


    "Eh....?


    That''s how Tiararose stood up and touched Salamander''s tears with Aquastead and Lucia Rose.


    Lucia Arrows'' magic comes from salamanders, so Gnomes are probably more familiar with it than they are with their own magic.


    Keith scratched his head as he watched Tiararose.


    "You''re really nice, Tiara.I can''t help it, so I''ll help you.As expected, when a country is crushed, the aftertaste is bad.... trees, tear apart its roots, support this country, and build the throne of the Spirit of Fire!! "


    When Keith called out to the earth, he supported the rock whose roots were about to collapse.Then the vine stretched, and a throne was formed to place the ore of the flame spirit.


    Originally the throne was sitting on a gnome, but the Flame Spirit Ore is part of the gnome''s power, so it seems to have been prepared.


    "... at all, Tiara can always really cool me down."


    I''m sorry, Aqua.


    "No. Thank you for protecting Lucia, Tiara."


    Aquastead smiled and took the hands of Tiararose and Luciarose, touching the ore of the Spirit of Flame with three.


    From there, Norm clasped his hands.


    "... the power of the Gnomes of all generations to support the kingdom of Ellie.The glow will be revived with the help of an absolute flame salamander.Once again, you will have a sparkling flame in your hand that will never die. "


    When the gnome was finished, the crushed flame spirit ore and the tears of the salamander began to sparkle.And when it comes to your body, it''s a floating feeling.


    The crumbling rock and ore castles slowly return to their original state for reverse regeneration.


    It''s like we''re building a world.


    The ground in the place where the fire of the Spirit of Fire rose, and the height gradually increased.In no time, he came to see all of Ellie''s kingdom.


    Clear, cold air is just right for a hot body.


    Amazing sight.


    "I never thought I could make a country like this."


    Hmm ~


    Hugged by Aquastead, Tiararose overlooks Ellie''s kingdom.Some of these sights come to your chest no matter how many times you look.


    "Ah, ah!


    "Lucia liked the view."


    "I''m in a pretty high position, but isn''t Lucia scared...?


    Looking down, it was so expensive that it was likely to become a rag, and the sluggish Lucia Rose seemed quite courageous.


    Tiararose leaned against Aquastead and smiled, "Because I have a dad."


    "I wouldn''t be scared, no matter how scary Aqua is...Aqua will definitely protect us. "


    That''s why Lucia Arrows enjoys the view with peace of mind.


    "Yes, I will protect you."


    Aquastead smiles and gives a gentle kiss to the temples of Tiararose and Lucia Rose.


    It was embarrassing to see everyone, but everyone was obsessed with the view of the newly created Ellie Kingdom... and nobody was looking at us.


    --Would it be okay if it was just a little bit?


    Tiararose was waiting for Lucia Rose and Lapis Lazuli, so she was away from Aquastead for a while.


    That''s why I missed you a little.


    "... Aqua"


    Hmm? What''s up?


    Chu, and.


    The lightly stretched Tiararose lips blur the Aqua Steed lips.An unexpected kiss from Tiararose.


    But he left quickly, so he was only touching it for a moment.


    "... can I kiss you too?


    "No Aqua."


    I''ll never let you go in a little while.


    Tiararose dyes her cheeks and she smiles bitterly when she sees that it is likely to cause her teeth to stop.


    "... let''s go home.To our house. "


    "Yes"


    In the ears of Tiararose, who watched the scenery, the gnome said, "Thank you."

 164 14. Breath of new flames

    After the fire of the Fire Spirit returned, the Tiararoses came to the Ore Castle.That''s why Gnome gave me a party to thank me.


    The city dwarfs are back - no, they''re using Salamander''s tears to watch the fire of the flaming Spirit, which has become even more beautiful.


    Meanwhile, Tiararose and Acari watched Lucia Rose play on the balcony.


    Hmm ~!


    "Wow, that''s so powerful...!!"


    Lucia Arrows is riding on a stone statue of a lion.It was made by Gnome, and it''s precise enough to keep moving.


    Acari raised her tension and said, "I want you too!"


    But Tiararose is worried that "because it''s a stone statue, it''s hard to hit my head..."


    "It''s okay, I''m watching it while I''m playing."


    "... that''s right.If only we could protect Lucia from having fun. "


    Tiararose thinks he should be careful not to say anything wrong for a reason.


    While watching Lucia Arrows play with the stone statue of the lion, Tiararose remembers Aquastead and Keith who are not here.


    They''re talking to Gnome right now.That''s true, this case cannot go unpunished.


    --When I think about Norm, I don''t want him to be punished too severely....


    However, there is no indication.


    Lucia Arrows is the princess of the Marine Forest and the number one successor to the throne.Of course, that''s not all.It is only natural to be angry because she is our dear daughter.


    --Nevertheless.


    "I wish it were peaceful."


    After playing on the balcony for a while, a stone statue of the lion riding Lucia Arrows came out.


    Kyaa


    Looking at the funny laughter, Lucia Rose must be moving the statue herself.


    I thought the only thing that worked with magic was stuffed animals... but I was impressed by the growth of children.


    --Yes, but I''ve floated my bed before.


    "Wow! Lucia is so cool!I want to ride a lion too ~ "


    "Akari-sama is a little..."


    Tiararose thinks that if a moving lion crosses the acari, it will go anywhere on it.


    And it''s easy to imagine where the people around you are exhausted.


    The lion walks gently with Lucia Rose on his back.I was wondering if I would keep going around the balcony, but I went indoor- to the party venue.


    There are invited dwarves at the party and they are having fun chatting.Apparently, the dwarves are standing like nobles in what we call humans.


    When Lucia Arrows showed up on the lion, the dwarves cheered and came here.


    "You are the princess who revived the fire of the Spirit of Fire!


    "Did Norm make that stone statue lion...?It''s so nice!


    "Thank you, the fire in Ellie Kingdom has come back to life!


    "Long live Lucia Rose!


    The dwarves thanked each other and honored Lucia Rose.I can see how important the fire of the Spirit of Fire was to the dwarves.


    Looking at Lucia Rose, who has become so popular, the acari laughs happily, "Wow!"


    "Lucia certainly had a lot of trouble with the gnomes, but she''s a hero to the dwarves."


    I could also use the magic of Lucia Arrows'' runaway, and I could say that I should have seen the results alone.


    "Besides, it would be more fun to have an event like this!


    "It''s just Acari-sama!


    Don''t do it together, Tiararose immediately disagrees.Sure you can enjoy it as a game lover, but not as a mother.


    Tiararose sighed and said, "I''m glad you''re safe."


    Ah?


    "Nothing.Lucia likes this lion. "


    "Ahhh!"


    Lucia Arrows smiles and slaps the lion.


    --This is going to burn your father''s rivalry.


    Tiararose laughs bitterly when she finds out that a lot of stuffed toys are about to be presented.


    "When you get a little older, you can ride this lion anywhere."


    "Don''t say such horrible things....."


    A princess riding a lion and going anywhere is no big deal.Imagine a guard knight chasing after him with a horse, and Tiararose shook his head.


    When I was having such a chat, the entrance sighed.


    The Aquastead, Keith, and Gnome seem to have finished the discussion and are showing up at the venue to attract attention.


    The discussion seemed to have ended successfully, and Tiararose gently stroked her chest.


    Aquastead, who immediately noticed Tiararose, came to us.


    "Nothing happened while I was away?


    "Yes, but Lucia has come to the fore."


    That''s how they see Lucia Arrows surrounded by dwarves.The dwarves are all friendly and Lucia Rose seems happy.


    We don''t have time to talk, Aqua, Tiara.


    Keith!


    The incoming Keith showed the gnome waiting in his jaw.


    There will be greetings, so Tiararose, Aquastead, and Keith will be present.


    I thought you said that the Aqua Steed had decided to report the punishment...


    --I don''t know the contents, do I?


    However, Tiararose, as queen, intends to follow Aquastead''s decision.


    Give me your hand, Tiara.


    "... yes"


    Take an Aquastead escort and climb up to the stage.After that, Lucia Rose and the acari on the lion also followed.


    The gnome who welcomed me lowered his head deeply into the teardrops and Lucia Arrows.The dwarves in the venue where I saw it stopped.


    "... Lucia Rose, Tiararose.I was totally sorry about this incident.I only thought about us. "


    Norm''s apology calmed him down.


    Some people know how it happened, such as a maid dwarf who worked at the Ore Castle, but they don''t know that the usual dwarves were kidnapped by Lucia Arrows.


    "I... really don''t like to rely on someone or consult with them...That''s all I wanted to do, everything I could... "


    In that case, it is Silf who scolds Gnome the most.


    Remembering Sylf''s face, I regret once again that I did something terrible.But when it''s over, there''s no going back.


    Slowly, the eyes of a gnome that can''t be seen hiding in your hair become hot.


    "I wanted to kidnap Lucia Arrows and revive the fire of the Fire Spirit..."


    Gnome''s confession made me more uneasy.


    I can''t believe they were so important without us knowing.


    The dwarves gaze at what happened to them.But the answer doesn''t come out right away.


    Because the dwarves know how important the fire of the flame spirit is to the blacksmiths themselves - to the gnomes.


    "... as a result, the fire of the Fire Spirit was revived by the power of Lucia Arrows.But it was thanks to Lucia Rose, Aquastead... His Majesty Aquastead, Her Highness the Queen Tiararose, and Her Majesty the Fairy King of the Forest Keith. "


    Norm stood in front of Aquastead and now folds his hips deeply.


    "Ellie vows here to support the kingdom of Marine Forest with the fire of the Spirit of Fire."


    "I received that sincerity.Marine Forest takes care of the bond with the Kingdom of Ellie. "


    Everyone lost their words to the unexpected gnome''s declaration, but a little applause was heard in the venue.


    It grew bigger and bigger, and applauded all over the Kingdom of Ellie.


    After the party, Tiararose and Aquastead were able to settle down in the guest room of the Ore Castle.


    Lucia Rose is tired of sleeping in bed because she plays a lot.


    "... I wondered what would happen, but I''m glad it''s over.And the magic of Lucia has calmed down. "


    "That''s right. That''s the best harvest..."


    Aquastead sits deeply on the sofa and breathes.Although the results were good, the fact that Lucia Arrows was captured does not disappear.


    When we get back to Marine Forest, we have to review our security, but it will be difficult to deal with the Spirit.


    When I get back, there''s plenty of work to do.


    Tiararose wondered what to do to Aquastead, who was visibly tired.


    --I want to help too.


    But there aren''t so many tear roses that can be done.I don''t know about the security aspects of Tiararose, and on the contrary, it seems to cause trouble.


    Tiararose said, "What''s wrong?I was worried.


    "... I wanted to help Aqua, who is tired, but I wondered if there was anything I could do."


    "I always get help from Tiara."


    That said, Aquastead leaned against the shoulders of Tiararose.Dark blue hair on my cheeks and I feel a little ticklish.


    "Aqua...."


    "Only Tiara can spoil me."


    "....."


    "Tiara just being next door makes me feel better and tired and happy."


    Aquastead''s gaze caught on to Tiararose and she smiled a lot.My face becomes red every once in a while.


    --That''s my dialog.


    Tiararose also relaxes his shoulders and leans against the Aqua Steed.


    "Two people - Lucia and the three of you - will live well and happily ever after."


    "Yeah, we''ve been together forever."


    "... yes"


    Looking at Aquastead''s slowly approaching face, Tiararose closed her eyes and accepted the kiss.

 165 15. Call me your name.

    After spending a day in the Ore Castle and a few days in the Kingdom of Philadelphia, the Tiararoses were ready to return to the Marine Forest.


    Looking at the carriage prepared, the acari is soggy.


    "I can''t believe I have to go back...I wanted to spend more time with Tiara-sama, and I was going to explore Gnome Country to make my sword!! "


    "Dear Acari-sama....."


    No, no, Tiararose smiles bitterly when she shakes her head.I mean, I''ve never seen an acari use a sword before...


    "Let''s go play again.The Kingdom of Ellie is an unknown country, and it is important that we continue to interact. "


    There may be rebellions from other countries.


    When that happens, Marine Forest and Lapis Lazuli are on the side.I''m sure some people will accept the dwarf as unusual.


    Tiararose nodded forcefully.


    "That''s right. It seems that there are many mines in the Kingdom of Ellie underground in Lapis Lazuli, and it might be a good idea to create an official entrance.Hmm, I''ll make it!Lapis lazuli are a lot of skilled craftsmen, so I''m sure they''ll go well with the dwarves!We have to get to it!


    Lapis lazuli are good at processing corals and so on, so the dwarf seems to have decided that weaponry and decoration are good for craftsmen.


    Sure, you''ll be able to do something amazing that''s never been the case before.


    Tiararose thinks it''s hard to get back to Lapis Lazuli because the tension of the acne has risen at once.Lord, there are people around the acari that will be swinging.


    "Dear Tiararose, Dear Acari,"


    "Princess Emerald!


    Looking back, it appears that Emerald, Sylf, and Gnome came to see me off.


    Emerald took Tiararose''s hand and smiled, "Thank you."


    "You''ve taken a lot of care of me.What would have happened if Master Tiararose hadn''t been here? "


    "No, Emerald.Speaking of which, I wish I had told you the truth. "


    Rather, I got Emerald involved, so it''s up to me to thank him.


    Emerald smiled when Tiararose made him feel sorry.


    "It was about the Spirit, so I can''t help it.I didn''t mean to tell anyone about Silf. "


    It''s the same with Tiararose, isn''t it?Emerald says.That''s right, so Tiararose can only nod.


    However, from now on, the existence of dwarfs will be recognized from the surroundings, and spirits will also be recognized.


    --Of course, I don''t intend to announce it to the public.


    Even in Sandrose, the presence of the salamander was classified as a state secret.Oh, and I can''t say that there are spirits.


    As Tiararose pondered, Emerald pushed forward the silf and gnome behind him with "both of us."


    "Master Sylf, Master Norm."


    "... the gnomes have caused a lot of trouble.Besides, I finally resonated with Lucia... I''m sorry. "


    "I may not be able to apologize either... but I''m sorry."


    Sylf and Norm wanted to apologize to Tiararose once again.


    "That''s enough for both of you.Norm was judged a king to protect his country, wasn''t he?I''m sure there was something hard about it. "


    Tiararose......


    Each one moves for something important and is now reflecting.With that in mind, there is no way you can say something at once.


    As Tiararose smiled, Gnome hugged Tiararose.


    "Thank you, Tiararose. I''m definitely on your side.... if you need anything, you can always count on me. "


    "... yes. Thank you, Mr. Norm."


    A slight sniff and a heartfelt apology.


    How pleasant it would be if the Spirit of the Earth were to say so much and be on my side.


    Norm walked away from Tiararose and called the dwarf maid he had been holding back.I have a box in my hand.


    "I heard that Tiararose likes to make sweets, so... here''s the cookware I made for sweets with my whole body in mind..."


    "Eh...."


    Tiararose blinked his eyes at an unexpected development.


    ¨D ¨D A confectionery making tool made by Norm with the whole body in mind!?


    That''s just a great thing to say.


    Rather, I wonder if I can use Norm''s skill as a cooking utensil.


    I froze to a lot of events and looked at Tiararose, worried that Norm would not have liked it.


    "Um... mostly cookies and cake molds, but I also made things that squeeze spoons and creams..."


    The maid opened the box and showed it to Tiararose.


    "Wow...."


    The gnome was simply "molded," but it was made in great detail.Even the finest craftsmen will not be able to make this much.


    --It''s like God''s work.


    "Thank you, Norm.I will use it with great care. "


    ...... yes


    Tiararose thanked her happily and Norm smiled back.I''ve never seen you laugh.


    As we finished talking, an Aquastead with a Lucian Rose arrived.Looks like it''s time to leave.


    Gnome went under Aquastead and fell on his knees.


    "Lucien Arrows, Norm and the dwarves will always welcome you as their messiah.And one day... I want you to hit me with your sword. "


    Ahhhh ~


    "... thank you."


    Lucia Arrows is decent and doesn''t understand the meaning of Norm''s words.Instead, Aquastead replied and thanked him.


    See you later.


    "... yes. Please be careful on the road."


    After saying goodbye, the Tiararoses left the kingdom of Philadelphia.


    Hmm, you''re home at last.


    Keith, who got out of the carriage, stretched out and loosened his consolidated body.People often ride carriages for a long time... with the words.


    Tiararose laughed bitterly and said, "Good work," getting off the carriage.Finally, Aquastead, holding Lucia Rose, got off the carriage.


    Lucia Rose looks tired and drowsy.


    "Welcome back."


    When everyone got out of the carriage, Craig showed up with a metastasis.


    "I''m glad you''re back safely.Keith told me what happened, so I don''t need an explanation. "


    "Oh, it''s all taken care of.From now on, there will be dwarfs in the Marine Forest. "


    Aquastead smiles as it gets more and more lively.


    "In any case, I didn''t expect Lucia''s magical problems to be solved here...."


    Fortunately, Keith thought he had completely lost sight of the timing of the blessing.... well, I''m sure there will be times when I need it in my life ahead.


    Keith touches Lucia Rose''s cheeks with his fingertips in Aquastead''s arms.It''s nasty.


    "Uu......?


    "Keith, if you do that, Lucia will happen...."


    As Aquastead tried to shake Keith''s hand, Lucia Rose''s little hand grabbed it.


    "Lucia?"


    Aquastead peeks into Lucia Rose''s face wondering what happened to her unexpected behavior.


    Then the flowers burst into laughter.


    "Phew!


    "...!!!"


    Aquastead lost her words to her daughter''s sudden words.


    I still can''t speak properly, and this may be the first time I''ve pronounced properly.Tiararose came next to Aquastead as he was moving and trembling.


    Lucia Rose looked at the tear rose and raised her hand.


    Well...


    "Lucia....!


    I was touched by the fact that you called my name for the first time and pressed it against my mouth.Happy, happy, unbearable.


    My daughter, who thought she was still a baby, had grown up so well.


    "Aqua, you called Aqua Dad."


    "You called me mom about Tiara."


    The two of them smiled face to face and hugged Lucia Rose.If you are called so cute, the tiredness of the carriage that you have been riding for a long time will blow up.


    "Can''t you call me?Lucia "


    Ah?


    Keith peeked into Lucia Rose''s face with an infidel face.Apparently, I''d like you to call me that.


    "Look, Lucia, it''s Keith, Keith.Can you say that? "


    "Ki... chu?


    "Oops, you can call me."


    Good boy, Keith strokes Lucia Rose''s head.


    "Kichu!


    Oh.


    Lucien Arrows called his name and Keith smiled.


    And Philline and Elliot, who were watching it, dashed over here.


    "Master Lucia Arrows, I''m Philline."


    "I''m Elliot."


    "Both of you."


    Tiararose laughed to Philline and Elliot, who couldn''t help but call her by her name.And look at Lucia Rose with anticipation.


    "Fee, no!


    "Yes, it''s Fine, Lucia Rose!"


    "No...!? My name is hard to call..."


    Filine rejoiced and Elliot smiled instantly with an unspeakable face.Above all, I''m sure you''re glad you called me.


    After that, Craig also had a nice face.I don''t say anything, but I know you''re going to call me.


    Tiararose called Lucia Rose''s name and pointed her face towards Craig.


    Lucia, it''s Claire.


    "Kuiiyu?


    When Lucia Arrows calls her name, Crail loosens her cheeks.Her expression hasn''t changed much, but she seemed happy.


    "Well done, Lucia."


    "With this, you''ll be able to talk in no time."


    "Yes"


    I''m sure that''s how much more we can do every day.


    The Tiararoses smiled that they were still looking forward to growing Lucia Arrows.

 166 1. Fairy Summer Festival

    Colorful corals and fish inhabit lush forests and the earth.And a clear sky that lasts forever.


    The name of Shiso, loved by the fairies, is Marine Forest.


    Step out onto the rooftop of the royal castle to see the bustling city.


    Ah!


    Fufu, that sounds fun.


    Tiararose holds her daughter Lucia Rose and tells her about the city, "That''s the square, and that''s the other way".


    Lucia Arrows always seems to be enjoying herself.


    It was five years since Tiararose married Marine Forest in the summer.


    "This year''s festival is going to be big.Let''s go to the festival with Lucia. "


    Ai!


    Tiararose smiles in reply to her cheerful beloved daughter.


    Queen of the Marine Forest, Tiararose Lapis Marine Forest.


    Fluffy honey pink hair and light blue eyes.a white tuck skirt is embroidered with flowers from the body to the hem around the blue body


    With a gentle and gentle expression on her face, Tiararose''s eyes staring at her daughter are filled with kindness.


    She''s a virgin, but here she is - a villain lady reincarnated into the world of the sequel to the maiden game Lapis Lazuli''s Ring.


    Lucia Rose Marine Forest is the fun way to see the city.


    The First Princess, the First Son of Tiararose and Aquastead.A little dark pink hair and golden honey pink patchy eyes.


    Magic has calmed down and is now living a quiet life.


    - Okay.


    Speaking of the summer in Marinforest, the Fairy Star Festival is held.This year is also a five-year milestone for the daughter-in-law of Tiararose, and the three-day festival was to be held in magnitude.


    Preparations are now well under way, and the festival will begin tomorrow.


    "Looks like a lot of sweet stalls are opening this year, so I''m looking forward to it.What does Lucia like? "


    "Nhhhhhh!"


    Yeah, let''s have some cookies too.


    Ah!


    Tiararose, who loved sweets too much, and Lucia Rose, who gradually learned the words.Recently, I look forward to talking about things like this every day.


    Tiararose lowered Lucia Rose and tied hands.


    "It''s time to go back to your room.If you stay out here, it''s hot and melting. "


    Ai


    Looking forward to tomorrow''s show, Tiararose and Lucia Rose returned to their rooms.


    And the next day.


    "Wow, that''s amazing. The whole city is so lively."


    Tiararose is moved by the view of the city from the balcony of the royal castle.


    Many sweet stalls opened for the festival, and Tiararose sparkled his eyes.If I may, I would like to enjoy the sweets of all the stalls.


    Aquastead giggles when she sees such tear roses.


    Well then, let''s hurry up and buy it all.


    If you take it back to the castle, you can eat with the three of us: Tiararose, Aquastead, Lucia Rose, and the family.


    I''m sure it''ll be a very pleasant family reunion.


    "It''s really nice... but it''s all out of my stomach."


    "Sorry."


    Aquastead Marine Forest is the fun teaser of the Tiararose.


    Tiararose''s husband, king of the Marine Forest.


    Golden eyes on dark blue hair, showing you are king.Now that I''m looking at my wife and daughter sitting across the street, my eyes are still falling.


    It was the main target of the sequel, but Tiararose chose me.


    Tiararose smiled at Aquastead''s words and wondered what she would have liked if she had eaten so much.


    But there is something more fun than getting all the sweets and going back to the castle.


    Tiararose tied a ribbon around Lucia Rose''s head.And look at the festival as a whole, not at the sweet stalls.


    Ai-too!


    "You''re so cute, Lucia.... I want Lucia to enjoy a lot of festivals. "


    Eating sweets at the royal castle is fine, but now the three of us want to go out together, Tiararose smiles.


    "Yes, I want Lucia to go through a lot."


    "Yes"


    I was ready to go out, so when I went to the entrance hall of the royal castle, I heard a tense voice.


    "Dear Tiara! Thank you for inviting me to the festival!I''m flying! "


    "Welcome, Akari."


    This time, the Tiararose sent invitations to Acari, Hartnites and Darrell for a special star festival.The acari seemed to be looking forward to it, smiling.


    But for some reason, I can''t see Hartnites or Darrell.


    "Um... Akari-sama, are you alone?"


    Tiararose leans his neck and says, "Huh?Looking back. Of course, there''s nobody here.


    "No, I think I left it behind!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tiararose smiles bitterly at the same acari.


    Acari Lapislazli Lactomuto, whose tongue flashes to the ground.


    Glossy black hair and black eyes all the way to the waist.In the heroine of this game, he marries Hartnites, the first prince of the kingdom of Lapis Lazuli, and lives happily.


    The cute peach dress has a star pattern lace on it, and you''ll soon know it was prepared for this festival.


    Acari laughed at Ahahaha and said one reason.


    "I''m the only one running away with a horse...Well, it''s okay. Halt Knights and Darrell will be here any minute! "


    "... at all"


    Though the throne inheritance has been stripped away, Tiararose thought it would be a little more gentle because she was the first prince''s queen... but she swallowed the words that it would be impossible to say because she was acne.


    Acari then greeted Aquastead and Lucia Arrows.


    "Long time no see, Aqua-sama! Lucia!"


    "Miss Acari is as good as ever.You''ve come a long way. "


    "Hey, hey!"


    Aquastead thanked lightly, and Lucia Rose called hard for acari.You must have remembered that we used to hang out together.Meet the acari, smile.


    Acari called herself sister Lucia Arrows.


    "Haaa! Lucia is even more beautiful and cute...!I brought you a souvenir, but it''s in the carriage... and I''ll give it to you again at night. "


    "Ahhh! Ahhh!"


    "How nice of you to say thank you!! All right, let''s go to the festival!Oneechan will buy you anything you want!! "


    "Let''s go!"refers to the outside.


    Tiararose thought it would be better to wait for Hartnites and Darrell... but since it''s about acari, it''s probably a long way ahead.


    Tiararose shrugged and nodded.


    Well, shall we go to the festival first?


    Lucia Rose is now able to walk a little, so she walks hand in hand in the middle of Tiararose and Aquastead.


    Lucia, walk slowly.


    Ai!


    Lucia Rose replied cheerfully, but she couldn''t help but be concerned about the festival.Everything I see is fresh, and if I let go of my hand a little bit, I''m going to run away.


    It''s the same with acari, walking down the street.


    "Every stall looks delicious! In the meantime, I''d like to have a tapioca drink... hmm, I''d like to shoot, but it doesn''t seem like it''s there?Dear Tiara-sama, do you have a shot or a superball?!? "


    "There is no projectile in this world!"


    I don''t have a gun in the first place, but I don''t have a shot.Acari swollen her cheeks and drank tapioca milk tea.


    "Nh, delicious! Lucia... is she still early?"


    "It''s dangerous if I get stuck in my throat, so I like fruit juice."


    "Fruit... ah, I found the stall! For Lucia, my acari sister will buy it right away!!"


    Tiararose stares at Aqua Steed and smiles bitterly as the lights dash into the stall.


    "Miss Acari is so tired... I don''t suppose she will."


    "Aqua... but this festival is huge, so I know how you want to feel."


    I am usually in the castle, and I don''t play much.


    As a matter of fact, Tiararose has been moving her gaze since a while ago.There are lots of cute sweets to look at, sneaking around to check them out.


    "Tiara, how about that fruit filling over there?"


    "Woah, that looks delicious! And it looks cute."


    Small strawberries are wrapped in water and made easy to eat with a bite.Strawberries are a specialty of marine forests, so many stalls are used.


    There are also stalls that sell crepes, pound cakes, and more.


    You''ll get caught up in it.


    That''s right.


    I was worried about which Tiararose was going to be, "I bought it!" and the acari came back full of energy.


    I have four strawberry juices in my hand.Looks like you bought it for all of us, not just for Lucia Rose.


    By the way, acari had already drunk tapioca drinks.


    "Thank you, Acari-sama."


    "No! Lucia too!"


    Ai-too!


    Lucia Arrows receives a full smile of strawberry juice and sips it.Then, the deliciousness bounced.


    "Hey, shit!"


    "Do you like it? That''s great! It''s delicious!"


    Hmm ~


    The acari smiled.


    Tiararose and Aqua Steed also drank strawberry juice, and when it did taste good, the cheeks relaxed.Next, when Tiararose thought about buying something to eat, a group of three people who had been enjoying the festival walked in front of them.


    Oh, isn''t that Tiara?


    "Keith...! And Claire and Pearl."


    Were the pussy here too?


    The festival is quite fun too.


    The trio are the fairy kings who live in this country.


    He seems to be wearing more rough clothes and enjoying the festival.Face your head and have food and drinks.


    --I ''m enjoying it as much as I can...!!


    While surprised that the Fairy King would be so interested in human festivals, Tiararose greets with a lady''s salute.


    "Ah, don''t be so hard. If you thank me, you''ll stand out."


    "Keith... but it''s already noticeable."


    Hmm?


    If there were three beautiful fairy kings, they wouldn''t be able to turn their gaze.A woman looks hot at Keith and Craig and a man flickers at Pearl.


    Claire noticed the gaze and put her jacket on her pearl.And then I put on the hood.


    "What are you doing, Craig?"


    "Pearl is a little more aware of her beauty."


    "... hmm. I don''t like anything like strawberries, not so much as wet."


    Even though he turned away, Pearl seemed to be thrilled with Craig''s jacket.


    Keith the Fairy King of the Forest wearing the face of a bear.


    Dark green hair and golden eyes.Black tank top with rough light green jacket.The waist has a loose ribbon and a fan that it always holds.


    He seems to be holding Frankfurt in his hand and enjoying the festival.


    An empty Fairy King Crail wearing a fish face.


    Empty hair and golden eyes.Light blue shirt and black trousers.I lent my jacket to Pearl, so I can understand the fine lines.


    I have strawberry juice in my hand, just like the tear roses.


    Pearl the fairy king of the sea wearing the face of a bird.


    Silver hair and golden eyes.Now wearing a clay jacket and hood, the Japanese design dress is gorgeous and enhances the existence of pearls.


    I have my favorite tapioca drink.


    "I didn''t expect to see you in the city."


    "Sometimes."


    Keith laughed and said he had eaten and walked a lot.Apparently, I like human food besides what I think.


    "You seem to be enjoying it, above all."


    When Tiararose smiles, Keith replies, "So-so."


    Besides, they''re not going out like this.


    "Ahh....."


    Looking at Claire and Pearl, Tiararose smiles bitterly.Keith used to say we should leave him alone, but he seems to care about both of us.


    Then Keith points to the other side.


    "There''s a magic chute over there. Aqua, it''s a match."


    Magic chute?


    Oh.


    When I went, there was a street stall that looked like a projectile.It''s like a game in which you use magic to shoot down a line of prizes.


    "Hee, did you have a game like this...."


    "Bet on Tiara''s confectionery."


    An impressive Aqua Steed and Keith betting on tea rose sweets on his own.


    I''ve been making sweets from day to day, so I don''t think it''s suitable for gambling products, but Tiararose accepts.


    "Papa, do it!"


    "I''ll get Lucia a stuffed toy."


    "Idiot, I''ll get you a big stuffed animal!"


    In this way, the Tiararoses fully enjoyed the festival.

 167 2. Long thoughts

    Hartnites and Darrell waited for Tiararose as they enjoyed the festival and returned to the royal castle.They had food and souvenirs they bought at the store, and they both went to the festival.


    As soon as the Hartnites found the acari, they walked slowly.I have fries in my hand.


    "Akari, you''re running away again on your own....!"


    "You''re enjoying Hartnites too!"


    "Maybe because I went first!"


    Why can''t I wait a little longer, Hartnites gets angry.


    Tiararose smiled bitterly at the appearance, and Aquastead lifted Lucia Rose and laid his hand on her eyes, saying, "Don''t look."


    Then, immediately, Philline and Elliot arrived.


    Welcome back, Lord Tiararose, Your Majesty Aquastead.


    Looks like you enjoyed it.


    "I''m home."


    "Oh, Philline, can I get Lucia?"


    Aquastead sees Philline nodding and keeps Lucia Rose.


    Looks like you''re already in trouble.


    "There''s plenty at the festival."


    Philline Coralucia is merciful.


    She is the maid of Tiararose and Elliot''s wife.The couple support Tiararose and Aquastead.


    Elliot Coralsia, who likewise plays Lucia Rose.


    He was an Aquastead Servant and was awarded the Baron of Merit.Sometimes it''s missing, but I''m good at swords and intelligence, and there''s a lot to be counted on.


    Halt Knights panicked to his head as he watched the Aquasteads interact.


    "... uhh, I''m sorry. I was upset....."


    "No, more importantly, about being safe."


    Then Darrell came under Tiararose and Aquastead and lowered his head, "It''s been a long time."


    "I was looking forward to seeing Tiara and Oniisama Aqua!"


    "I''m glad you''re doing well, Darrell.I wonder if he''s getting taller again. "


    Tiararose put his hand over Darrell''s head and smiled, "You''re about to get pulled out."


    "I want to grow up faster! That way, I can protect a lot of things."


    "Oh... I''ve already seen an adult man - Darrell?"


    Well, Darrell looked into Tiararose''s stomach to block the conversation.Seriously, I''m anxious to know what happened to Tiararose.


    "Ah... I''m sorry, Sister Tiara. It was impolite."


    "No, it''s okay, but what''s wrong with me?"


    Was there dirt or something on the clothes?Tiararose leaned his neck, but Aquastead saw Darrell saying, "Maybe."


    "Ah... yes, oniisama''s right, eh?"


    Darrell?


    Tiararose doesn''t know why and looks alternately at Aquastead and Darrell.


    Darrell didn''t seem to know if he could speak and whispered to Aquastead.


    "Huh? Huh? What do you mean, Aqua?"


    Now Aquastead brings her lips to the ears of Tiararose.


    "Ah, ahh!?"


    "It''s okay, son. Listen to me."


    "......!"


    Actually...


    What the hell is everybody doing here!? Yes, I feel like Aquastead''s words have changed the color of the world.


    "There''s a baby in my stomach."


    "Ehhhhhh!? I''m the second...!?"


    Losing his words, Tiararose covered his mouth with his hands.


    Your heart is pounding and your hands unconsciously touch your stomach.When I think that there is a new life here, my eyes become slightly hot.


    - I''m glad.


    Just one word, but there are a lot of thoughts in Tiararose.Thank you for coming under us.


    Tiararose''s words and actions also made the acari and hartnites feel good.The acari quickly dashed under the tear rose.


    "Congratulations, Tiara-sama!"


    "Ah, thank you. I don''t really feel it yet...."


    Tiararose said in the light, and I think I should report to my fathers.I''m sure you''ll be as delighted and drowned as you were in Lucia Rose.


    I can easily imagine it and laugh at it unexpectedly.


    However, Darrell saw Tiararose with worrying eyes.


    "I feel the same magic as when I was with Lucia...So I''m a little worried, but there''s no magic coming from the outside... so I think it''s okay to take a good look at the course. "


    "This child also has magic....."


    Tiararose still smiles bitterly at Darrell''s words.


    It''s Aqua''s kid.


    I think that you will have a brilliant child with a beautiful appearance.


    Darrell says he feels the same magic as he did in the Lucian Arrows.However, since the power of the Spirit has not been affected this time, it will not be a strange situation...


    And I caressed my chest.


    The three Fairy Kings who enjoyed the festival were disbanded, and only Keith and Craig watched the city from the rooftops of the castle.


    Keith took a breath and said nothing.


    Marine Forest is a good country.


    "Yes, Ferres and Lilia worked hard to build the country, so I''m afraid that''s all we need."


    "... well..."


    The fairy kings have been watching Marine Forest.


    There have been many disasters along the way, but they have gradually grown.


    Now that Aquastead is here, Marine Forest will be at peace for a while.Then Keith had one thing to think about.


    Claire and Pearl have been having a nice time here lately.


    "Hey, Claire, it''s a big festival, so why don''t you confess to Pearl?"


    "... that''s right."


    What a joke - before Keith said, Craig answered positively unexpectedly.


    "Oh, really... Are you serious? What kind of cowardly, deep clay is that?Can you really confess? "


    Are you kidding me?And Keith blinked his eyes.


    "... I guess Keith told me to confess.Well, even if I confess, Pearl may be annoying. "


    Keith sighs at Craig''s words.When it comes to me, it seems to be passive.


    "... Tiara and Aqua seem happy these days. Are you jealous?"


    "If you say so, Keith is the one.Put that little bit on Tiararose..... "


    Haha


    Speaking of which, Keith laughs.


    Sometimes I thought it should be my own, but lately I think it would be good because I am laughing next to Aqua Steed.


    "- I see."


    Ah.


    Keith smiled quietly at the nodded crane.


    The third day of the last day of the star festival.


    The mountain where you can see the starry sky is clear of air and calms you down.Close to the temple of Claire, this is the favorite place in Marine Forest.


    The star festival is climaxing and the stars are descending.


    Craig called Pearl there.


    "The stars you see from here aren''t extraordinary."


    "Yeah, I was hoping someday I''d see Pearl."


    Really? Huh? Then I should have invited you. "


    Pearl swells her cheeks because the star festival has always been there, and there should be plenty of opportunities.But it wasn''t that easy for Craig.


    "If I thought you''d say no, I''d be scared."


    "Crail....."


    Pearl opened her eyes and looked at Craig.But his face was facing down, and he couldn''t read his expression.


    There was a moment of silence between them.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Pearl wanted to remain unaware.


    Loving someone is happy and fills your breasts.But at the same time, the loneliness when I was alone, as much as I loved it, was getting many times heavier.


    How many years have passed since Pearland''s man, who once gave Pearl his name, betrayed him?


    I know that Craig is not such a man.But this feeling is not rational - still.


    All the time, all the time, Craig...


    "Thank you for loving straw, Claire."


    ¨D¨D¨D¨D


    Tell him Pearl hugged Craig.


    Thank you for always liking me.


    I''m sure Claire was the only one who thought about Pearl for so long.


    "Oh, Pearl already took it all."


    Crail smiles and looks at the pearl.


    "I love you, Pearl. Ever and ever."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Pearl blushes her face at the whispering words of Craig.Once again, I wonder if you''re so embarrassed.


    Claire wraps her fingertips around the adjacent pearl.Call it "Pearl" with a sweeter voice than usual and smile.


    "I can finally stand next to Pearl with dignity."


    "... nh! Look, don''t talk around your ears!!"


    "Oh, sorry."


    The fresh pearl''s reaction is cute, and Craig''s heart is filled with it.Pearls I''ve never seen before are in my arms.


    That fact alone will make the difficult approach we''ve been through better.


    "Holy shit! Craig, you should be more aggressive!"


    "Pearl.... If you say that, I''ll get on with it."


    You should get in.


    Normally it''s a confident thing, no matter how weak Craig is when it comes to Pearl.But now that Pearl has a good answer - I think we can get on with it a little bit.


    "... can I stroke your head?"


    "Whatever you want."


    "Well then...."


    Claire gently touched Pearl''s head with Pearl''s permission.Sarasara''s hair touches the palm of her hand and feels unspeakable.


    "... you''re happy."


    "What a cheap happiness."


    Pearl laughed, stretched out to herself, and tried to reach for Claire''s head.


    "Is it finally stuck?"


    ----Keith''s voice.


    "............!?"


    Pearls harden when unexpected opponents appear.


    I''m so glad.


    How carefree Keith said it, but the pearl who was watching me cum wasn''t far away.


    "Sleepy...!!"


    Pearl''s magic ran wild with so much embarrassment!!

 168 3. Meet twins

    Behind Craig calling Pearl and confessing - at the same time, Tiararose watched the stars descend in the woods with Aquastead.


    The stars can only be seen at the Marine Forest Star Festival.I''m impressed to see it many times, and I want to see it again next year.


    Tiararose approaches Aquastead and tells the story of Lucia Rose, who was left behind in the royal castle.


    I wanted to show Lucia this scene too.


    "That''s right. When I get a little older, I''m sure I''ll wake up and watch with you."


    Then we might be able to see the three parents and the three children together - perhaps the baby that will be born.


    "Tomorrow, not just next year... it''s nice to have more fun ahead."


    Isn''t that right...?


    Aquastead tried to nod, but felt the magic of the sea on the wipe.It seemed the same with Tiararose, looking around in a hurry.


    Besides, it swells up and becomes more magical than ever before.


    "The magic is getting bigger and bigger...!"


    "Tiara!!"


    Not as it is - Aquastead, who thought so, hugged Tiararose aggressively.


    Soft feeling on cheeks and green smell.The morning dew fell on my fingertips and my eyes twitched... I''m not awake yet.


    Below her came the fairies of the forest.


    Oh dear? Aren''t you Tiara?


    What happened to taking a nap in the woods?


    In the meantime, would you like to prepare a bed of flowers?


    That''s good ~!


    Smile and the fairies prepare a bed of flowers.The sleepy Tiararose looks like a sleeping princess.


    But what''s wrong?


    In the meantime, shall I inform the king?


    And the fairies were talking about what to do, and they said, "What happened?"Two young people showed up.


    "Nh, nh...?"


    The dull consciousness arose and Tiararose repeated the blinking several times.Then you open your eyes to a clear view.


    Light plunged from the gap of the trees shining in the morning dew and a pleasant wind.The ceiling is made of tree branches and leaves, and even walls are made of trees that remain grown.


    Probably a magic or something building.


    When Tiararose woke her up, the scent of the soup tickled her nose.


    "Good morning, how are you feeling?"


    Then I heard a calm and gentle voice.I think that reassuring voice is like an Aquastead - haha.


    "How the hell did I...!? I''m sure Aqua and I were looking at the stars together."


    Two young men were in front of the Tiararose when it happened.


    A young man with ash pink hair called out to Tiararose.Another young man with ash blue hair is making soup by putting firewood in the fireplace.


    Thoughts can''t keep up - I barely understand that the two people in front of me helped me.Tiararose''s body was covered in warm blankets, and there were forest, sky, and sea fairies beside them.


    When Tiararose tries to wake his body, the young man with ash pink hair controls him "as is."


    "You''re still in pain, aren''t you?"


    The Ashpink youth smiled with a gentle smile, saying, "Don''t push it."


    "Thank you for your help."


    "... no, I''m glad you''re okay."


    Though Tiararose thanked her with her usual heart, she was thrilled.That''s because the young man''s eyes were as golden as Aquastead''s.


    Gold and light blue odd eye, to be exact.


    --The golden eyes were supposed to be proof of the King.


    Perhaps these two are also standing in the position of kings.But Tiararose doesn''t know them.


    If you were a Marine Forest, you wouldn''t know.


    The young man with ash pink hair put his jacket on the tiara rose "because his body needs to get cold".


    "... thank you."


    "I''m Luca."


    "My name is Rio. I made soup, so if you''re going to eat it,"


    Young gentle voice, Luca.


    Ash pink hair and blue eyes on the left and golden eyes on the right.


    is wearing a white robe-tailored knight''s dress.She is wearing a bracelet with a moon motif on her left hand.


    The young man who made the soup, Rio.


    Ash blue hair, gold on the left eye and light blue on the right eye.


    He is wearing a black knight''s dress and a bracelet inspired by the sun on his right hand.


    "I''m... Tiararose. Thank you."


    "Go ahead."


    The soup was served with vegetables, mushrooms, meat and a lot of utensils.A sip warms your body from the core and relieves you.


    - Delicious.


    Luca and Rio also sat in a nearby chair and started drinking soup.


    They are all alike in face, back, and length.


    It can be seen that the clothes worn are different in shape, but the design is the same, and it matches.


    "Are they... twins?"


    "Yes, I''m your brother and Rio is your brother."


    You''re very close.


    Luca and Rio nod to Tiararose''s words.


    Then Rio opened his mouth.


    "How are you feeling? Is there anything hard?"


    "I''m fine. But if they don''t help me...Am I down in the woods? "


    "Yes, it is."


    Rio explained the situation to me.


    "When we were walking through the woods, the fairies in the woods were making noise.Then there was you lying there.Even so, she was sleeping in a bed of flowers. "


    "That''s right. Thank you, fairies of the forest."


    The fairies sat and relaxed in the branches of the tree growing from the wall.To thank Tiararose, she smiles, "No!"


    Good night!


    I''m glad Tiara is feeling better!


    The forest fairies laughed, "It''s time to take care of the flowers!"and left the window.


    And so did the fairies of the sky and the sea.


    "Oh...."


    Luka giggled as Tiararose poured over her every moment of her life.


    "The fairies are whimsical."


    "... that''s right. Um, Luka..."


    "Call me Luca."


    Tiararose, confused by the way she called it, chose a title from her outfit, but it was corrected immediately.


    Well then, Luca.


    "Yes"


    "Wasn''t there a man with me?Maybe he was just as unconscious.... "


    The most worrying thing right now - Aquastead.


    I was supposed to be with him, but I haven''t seen him since I woke up.Just like Tiararose, I wish Luca and Rio could protect us...


    Hearing the words of Tiararose, Luca and Rio leaned their necks.


    "No, only you found it in the woods."


    "The fairies didn''t say anything, so there was nobody else."


    "Oh no...."


    The hope that you might have been able to help me just like yourself... disappeared.I was supposed to be with you, but why did you fall apart?


    --Where are you, Aqua...?


    When Tiararose''s expression became serious, Luca and Rio looked at each other in trouble.


    "This forest... the country is peaceful, so I think that person is safe.So please cheer up. "


    "Yes, we don''t have a dangerous beast, and we''ll find it soon."


    "Right, Aqua is strong.Thank you both. "


    Tiararose relaxes his shoulders and breathes slowly and deeply.


    Aquastead is not safe because he was safe.


    --Aqua will definitely be fine.


    If we rest a little longer, we have to go find Aquastead.Because there is a baby in my stomach, I can''t help it.


    It''s funny that we can''t go looking for him right away.


    "This is in the woods... I''m telling you, this is our secret base, so please take your time."


    "That''s right, there''s food and drinks, so it''s perfect for a break."


    "Secret base...! It''s kind of exciting."


    Sure, it''s made of plants, so it looks like a secret base.It''s not a normal building, so it''s fun just to check it out.


    As Tiararose nodded, Luca and Rio smiled.


    "A smile is better than a mysterious expression.Shall I make some tea? "


    "Soup wouldn''t have been enough, and in the meantime, I''ll get a scone."


    "Uh, thank you."


    Tiararose thinks he''ll do so well for a stranger.They smile brightly, and I feel like I can get better.


    I prepared a scone of Earl Grey tea with strawberry jam and raw cream.


    "Wow, it looks delicious..."


    "Eating sweets will cheer you up."


    Yes, it is.


    According to Luca, Tiararose smiles.Sure, sweet things will cheer you up, and you can work hard.


    Rio laughed as he looked at the Tiararose nodded.


    "My mother always said that."


    "I like sweets."


    "That''s right. You must be a wonderful mother."


    Tiararose thinks she''ll be a sweets friend if she sees you.


    "Is your mother home?"


    "My mother is on a trip with my father.When will I be back..... "


    "Oh...."


    Luca laughs because it seems like a friendly couple and says it''s going to be a long trip because it''s going to relax.


    --You ''re a lovely couple.


    Tiararose and Aquastead are sometimes kings and queens, making it difficult to make the opportunity to travel.


    A country that has been in diplomacy or various circumstances is enough with one hand.


    Someday, if you can calm down more.


    --I want to travel around the world.


    How dare you think such a dream.


    Tiararose thought that if one day, decades later, a child could grow up and become independent - maybe even have that time.

 169 4. Ichitori Ritsukuri

    "So my father made a flower field to make the finest honey for my mother."


    "Honey is needed to make sweets."


    "Flower fields? Wow."


    Tiararose blinks at Luca and Rio''s parents.


    Instead of searching for honey, I made it from the flower fields...


    --But honey is made differently depending on the type of flower...


    Perhaps the best way to get the honey of your dreams.However, it can''t be that easy because it takes a lot of time, expense, and so on.


    --I wonder who these two parents are...


    "I''m sure it''s very delicious honey. It''s lovely."


    "It''s delicious. I like to put it in hot milk."


    "I prefer hot cakes."


    Both look delicious.


    Tiararose smiles at the two answers and thinks about what would be good for him - there are too many cookies, muffins, tarts and things to use.


    "©¤ ©¤ Well, it''s been so much fun and so much talk."


    I think it''s time for Tiararose to go, having a cup of tea with Luca and Rio.


    Find Aquastead or return to the castle once.Either way, it doesn''t start without action.


    "Thank you both so much for your help.Please let me thank you later. "


    "Never mind.I just did what was natural. "


    That''s right.


    Tiararose once again thanked me, but I was shaken by the offer.


    "... I''m in a hurry now, so let me sweeten your words."


    "Yes"


    "But next time I see you, let me thank you properly."


    I''d love to.


    I don''t know if I''ll see you next time, but I made a promise to thank you then.


    Well then ~!


    But on the wipe, Tiararose''s stomach ached.


    Apparently, my baby''s magic has become unstable as a result of the magic runaway earlier.


    "Ugh, it hurts...!"


    ¨D¨D!?


    Luka and Rio stood up as soon as they crouched with their hands on their stomach.They''ll be right under the Tiararose, and they''ll support us.


    Are you okay!? Ah...


    Rio!


    "... I''m sorry, I need to see a doctor right away"


    "Ah. Something has to be done, so I have to carry it slowly...."


    Luca and Rio panicked and suddenly the secret base door opened.It was a man who came here, and he seemed so angry.


    "We were both here!I have an appointment this morning... eh!?! "


    "Shh!!"


    When the man came to speak up, Rio hurriedly shut his mouth with his hand.


    "Don''t touch her, be quiet!! Don''t shout because you''re in pain!!"


    "Eh, ah... uhh, yeah"


    As soon as a man answers in a hurry, Luka''s voice flies in.


    "Now, more than that, check it out!"


    "All right, Luca, get out of the way."


    Men immediately kneel in front of Tiararose and use water magic.Quiet and gentle water envelops the tear rose and makes an examination.


    All three of them had serious expressions, and only the voice of the spicy Tiararose echoed indoors.But it also gradually settles down.


    When the water magic subsided, the man took a small breath.


    "... the cause is because of the magic influences from outside.Because of this, it looks like the magical runaway of the baby in my belly is about to happen..... "


    Are you okay now?


    "Is there anything else you need to do?"


    When Luca and Rio asked worriedly, the man smiled.


    "It''s okay now that it''s settled.But I''ve never seen such magic with a baby.What the hell.... "


    "... hyu"


    "... pyu"


    "I didn''t whistle..."


    That said, the man sighed.


    Luca and Rio brought Tiararose to their room.


    Because she is unwell and pregnant, she decided that she must rest in a decent environment.


    Put him to bed and rest in peace.


    "But really, what does that mean?Darrell, do you know why? "


    Luca leans her neck and looks at the man - Darrell.


    "No, you won''t understand me...."


    Darrell shrugs his shoulders when he wants to hear it.


    Luca took a deep breath and sat down on the sofa.Rio is worried about Tiararose, sitting with a chair next to his bed.


    "... just before I met her, I felt the magic of the sea."


    Luca remembers a while ago when she met Tiararose.Luka is better at feeling magic than Rio.


    That reminds me of Rio.


    "I realized the magic of a runaway, but was it the sea?"


    "That''s right. Normally, there wouldn''t have been a problem... but Pearl isn''t here right now."


    If anything had happened, Pearl would have offset the interference.


    But now that I''m away, I couldn''t do it.Luca speculated that the interference might have caused a distortion.


    "... let''s write to my father and mother right away."


    "But the destination of the trip was so far away... I don''t think I''ll be back soon."


    That''s right.


    Even so, Luca sends a letter magically.


    "I''m sorry to be so busy, but will Darrell look at this guy a little bit more?Maybe it''ll hurt again. "


    "Of course."


    Darrell nodded at Luca''s worrying words.


    Your consciousness rises, and vaguely unknown ceilings enter your vision.After repeated blinking several times, Aquastead opened his eyes wide.


    "...? This is... Tiara!?"


    Wake up and look around.He must have been in the woods, but it looks like a room somewhere.


    A room with a blue tone and expensive accessories.It turns out that the sun was shining through the large window, and he was fairly unconscious.


    --It''s not a castle.


    "We need to find Tiara immediately....."


    When Aquastead woke up in a hurry, knocking sounded in the room.Soon, a middle-aged man in butler clothes came in.


    I have a tea set in my hand.


    "Oh, did you wake up?"


    ¨D¨D¡­¡­


    I''ve never seen that face before, but I feel like I know this man... and I get the illusion.No, just looking at the atmosphere, it would be the same person that comes to mind.


    - But that butler must have been a little above me.


    Even if I was wrong, I wasn''t so old.


    Does he know or not that Aquastead thought, gracefully brewing tea and saying, "Why don''t you calm down for now?"to Aquastead.


    "Ah, ahh... thank you"


    Aquastead takes a sip of tea and relaxes his body.And think about what happened.


    --I definitely felt something like a magic shake back then.


    Aquastead is blessed with the magic of the sea - the pearl.


    I''m sure I''ve lost my mind because of that.It''s pathetic that Tiararose was with us.


    Drink tea quickly and speak to the butler.


    "I''m sorry I kept my wife waiting, so I have to go now.I''d like to thank you later, so may I ask your name? "


    "Don''t be shy.But what should I do... if I see my wife again, can I go home safely... "


    ¡­¡­


    According to the man, Aquastead frowned.


    I can''t go home. That''s impossible.Because you can see the royal castle from outside the window.


    If you leave the Mansion, you will be able to leave at once.


    But the man laughed in trouble.


    "Uu... nh... nh!"


    Tiararose was able to wake up in a relatively good mood, either because her body was calm or because she was able to rest well.


    Unconsciously stretches and loosens the consolidated body.


    But I immediately opened my eyes to my situation.


    "Um, where are we...?"


    You were supposed to be at the secret base in the woods, but you''re sleeping in a luxurious canopy bed.Bedside is also served with snacks and drinks.


    The dress worn by Tiararose replaces the laid-back nightwear.Looks like someone got her dressed.


    The place looks like a room in the royal castle in Marinforest, but Tiararose doesn''t know this room.


    I woke up confused, and I said, "Did you notice?"I heard a woman''s voice.Turning to her eyes, a mid-degree woman in a dress stood.


    "I am Elaine, as I see you from Luca and Rio.We were both very worried. "


    "From the two of us...? Ah, I''m Tiararose."


    "You must be Mr. Tiararose. With all due respect, I changed my clothes."


    Elaine prepared hot water for washing and changing clothes.And the aroma of black tea floats.


    "How are you feeling?"


    "Um, I''m feeling better."


    "That''s good. Please wash your face while you sit on the bed."


    I washed my face with the water I had prepared, and Tiararose was relieved.


    Place your hands on your stomach and breathe slowly and deeply.For the time being, as far as I can tell, there seems to be no problem with my physical condition.


    Elaine is relieved that Tiararose is feeling well.


    "I''ll call a doctor, so please take your time in the meantime."


    "... thank you. But where the hell is this place?I''m not telling anybody anything... I''m sure you''re worried. "


    When I told her I wanted to leave early... Elaine smiled like she was in trouble.


    "I know exactly how Tiararose feels.Luca and Rio are looking into it right now, so could you wait a moment? "


    Elaine brewed tea, and beside it she prepared milk and honey in a cute vial.


    "This honey was made by Luca and Rio''s father.It''s delicious, so please try it. "


    "That''s the honey I was talking about. Thank you."


    But the moment Tiararose got the honey, there was a loud explosion outside the window.

 170 5. Sky Variation

    Tiararose and Elaine face each other and look out the window.


    Apparently there was an explosion on the premises.


    "What the hell happened!?"


    "I will check soon!"


    "Wait, I''m coming too!"


    When Elaine stops trying to get out of the room, she says, "It could be dangerous!"and I was shaken.


    "Mr. Tiararose, please wait in your room.I''ll check it soon..... "


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Sure, she''s pregnant, and it''s better to wait in the room.But I feel like I have to go somehow, and that''s what makes me nervous.


    Tiararose looked out the window and the wind was blowing and the blast was clearing up.


    There are two young people there that I know.


    "Luca and Rio!?"


    "Eh, Luca-sama and Rio-sama!? Those two again...!"


    Elaine sighed loudly when she looked out the window and quickly went outside.Probably went to Luca and Rio.


    "Um... what am I supposed to do?"


    I''m alone.


    Looking indoors, the dress Tiararose had originally worn was nowhere to be found.Instead, a dark blue skirt was available in a beautiful dress.Probably a change of clothes for Tiararose.


    "In the meantime, let''s get dressed and go after them...!"


    "Luca-sama, Rio-sama, did you use magic again...!"


    When Tiararose arrived at the scene after changing clothes, there was Elaine, whose cheeks were swollen, and Luca and Rio, who were angry at Elaine.


    "I thought it would work this time."


    Still sweet to control?


    Luca and Rio laugh at Elaine''s words.But because Elaine is angry with her face turned bright red, she is confused about what to do with Tiararose.


    In the meantime, I''ll hide behind the pillars and see how it goes.


    --I wonder if that means... everyday tea.


    Tiararose laughs bitterly at the two of them who are so reckless.


    All I know is that the current explosion was Luca and Rio''s magic...


    "It''s a workout yard, so even though there''s no damage to the surroundings, everyone will be surprised by the sudden explosion!"


    "Yeah, be careful... ah"


    Looking at Tiararose a little further away, Luca and I met.Looks like they noticed.


    Luca opened her eyes in surprise, but immediately looked at Elaine and smiled bitterly.


    "I was hoping you''d take your time in your room... we''re the ones who started the case, so I can''t say anything."


    "I''m sorry, I''m worried because I saw you two... are you hurt?"


    Luca and Rio have a bit of soot on their faces, and their clothes are noticeably dirty.It doesn''t look like blood is seeping, but I''m worried because it exploded.


    "Yes, I''m not hurt."


    "I''m totally hurt! I''m fine."


    "Good."


    For the time being, make sure they are safe and Tiararose is relieved.But next to that, Elaine held her mouth by her hand and blued her face.


    "I''m sorry I left Tiararose in my room!!"


    "No, it''s okay, Elaine. I''m fine now."


    "Dear Mr. Tiararose....."


    Tiararose smiles at the tearful Elaine.I''ve only walked a short distance, so there''s nothing important about it.


    My stomach and magic are calming down now.


    The same thing happened when Lucia Arrows was pregnant, so I am somewhat used to the magic of babies.


    "... let''s go to the room for now.Even though I''m feeling better, it''s tough if I collapse again. "


    "Thank you."


    That''s why Luca escorted Tiararose to her room.


    When I got back to my room, Elaine made me some tea.Then, to make it easy to pinch, a bite-sized scone.


    After a sip of tea, Luca and Rio told me why it exploded.


    "Actually, there''s a little weird going on right now."


    "Weird...?"


    Luka nods as Tiararose frowns.


    "It started three days ago.The sky changed color. "


    The sky in this country is beautiful.


    The sky is clear everywhere, and at night you can see the stars in the sky.Inhaling air into your body will calm your mind.


    Tiararose glanced out the window - especially to make sure there was nothing unusual.


    "Even though it''s so beautiful...?"


    "Yes, it''s a beautiful sky as usual because it''s calming down now."


    However, according to Luca, there are many bad things about violent bird monsters that start with a small thunderstorm...


    Dealing with birds I''ve never seen before is tough, and the knights are all out.


    "There''s been an anomaly, but no major damage.How many knights have been injured? "


    Rio explains the situation of the knights and Luca nods.


    "We''re being followed up on that right now.- Oh, look, it''s that bird. "


    "Eh...?"


    Looking up at the sky in Luka''s words, a bird rang ''Cui''.


    It was a white bird with a red color, black tips and long tail wings.It''s plural wings, blocking the sky blue.


    Unexpectedly, something terrified my spine ran.


    "I''ve never seen such a bird...."


    "Yes, we didn''t know about it until the last few days."


    Luca stood up from the sofa in trouble.


    "I can''t just leave you alone, so if you''ll excuse me."


    Huh?


    Tiararose wonders what she intends to do.Luca reached for the bow that was hanging on the wall.


    - You''re not going to shoot that bird from here?


    When Tiararose was dazzled, Rio saw Luca saying, "It''s okay."


    "If they''re in the sky, they''re faster than the knights."


    At the same time as Rio said, Luca pulled and released her bow in a beautiful motion.


    And the arrows flew into the mountains, shooting the birds most easily.


    For too short a moment, Tiararose cannot hide his surprise.I''ve never seen such an amazing master.


    But Luca doesn''t seem to think anything about it.


    "That''s it," he said. Excuse me, may I continue? "


    "Ah, yes...."


    Tiararose nodded with a smiling smile as her liver seemed to have settled.


    And let''s go back to what we said earlier.


    The birds that Luca shot down appear to have been gathered by the Knights to deal with them.


    "It exploded... because of the enormous amount of magic between me and Rio."


    When asked in detail, Luca and Rio rarely use magic.Because like before, magic explodes.


    Rio showed me his bracelet by turning his sleeve to make it easier to see.


    "Usually, this suppresses their magic.I can''t control it very well, and if I don''t put it on, I''ll run wild.... "


    "As you grow up, your magic is still growing."


    Luka laughs when she doesn''t know where to stay.


    "I just can''t... use our natural powers.I hadn''t really cared before, but in the current situation, I can''t say that either. "


    That''s what Luca and Rio smiled about, saying it was necessary to protect them.


    Listening to the two of you, Tiararose remembers Lucia Rose.My daughter also struggled with so much magic.


    I am calm now, but I can''t be optimistic anymore.


    "I wish I could help you, but I don''t know how to do that.I''ve been doing a lot of research..... "


    There is no good way.


    I''ve made items of rings to suck on magic, but I''m sure the rings won''t stand the magic of Luca and Rio.


    Is that so?


    "That bracelet is amazing."


    Tiararose has never heard of a bracelet that suppresses magic.


    Looking seriously at Rio''s bracelet, Luca explained while showing me her bracelet.


    "I made it."


    "Eh, Luca!? Even though she''s still young, it''s amazing...."


    "Even if you say you''re young, you''re already 19."


    It''s no strange age to be old enough to be married already.Nevertheless, I don''t have anyone like that for now, but I laugh.


    "I love magic research, and I make these kinds of things."


    "I''m always mad at you for forgetting to sleep and researching."


    "Rio, don''t you have to say that?"


    Luca laughed at Rio with a smile."I''m sorry," she apologizes, but Elaine is nodding next door, so everyone must be mad at me for staying up late.


    "Well, leave that story alone....."


    Luca put something on Rio''s lap with a gesture and looked out the window.


    "--That''s the status quo. Apparently, the weather tends to be volatile, so you may get sick more easily if you are pregnant.I went to see a doctor when I got back here, but the baby was fine. "


    So don''t worry for a moment, Luka smiled.


    "That''s right, thank you.It is the most important thing that my child is healthy. I''m glad. "


    When Tiararose said that and smiled pretentiously, Luca and Rio echoed, "That''s not true."


    "Your body is just as important."


    "Yes, take care of yourself the most."


    "... yes, I''m sorry, both of you. First of all, me."


    Even though they are younger than themselves, they are very steadfast.Tiararose nods when he reflects on his words and values himself.


    --That''s right, it''s okay because we''re all together.


    "To do that, we have to rendezvous with Aqua...Hey, Luca, Rio, Elaine. I need you to tell me about this place.I thought it was the royal castle of Marinforest... but it''s a little different from my memory... "


    I feel like I''m lost in a strange world.

 171 6. In gentle arms

    When Tiararose tried to hear about this place, there was a knock in the room and a maid''s voice saying, "I''m a customer."


    "...? I didn''t expect any visitors in particular."


    Luca stood up strangely tilting her neck.


    Tiararose drank tea and waited in his seat.I was going to ask Luca and the others a lot, but if you think about it carefully, we both have plans... and they might be busy.


    - No, you''re definitely busy.


    If you''re having trouble getting some time right away, let''s go find Aquastead and come back later.


    When Tiararose thought about it, she heard a sweet voice calling out to herself.The voice I hear every day, familiar to my ears.


    "Good, Tiara. You''re safe...."


    A-Aqua!


    Tiararose rushed up from the sofa and rushed under the Aquastead.


    I was always anxious because I was supposed to be with you and I fell apart.


    Resting assured that she was feeling well, Tiararose felt her body relaxed.Then Aquastead grabbed me gently.


    "Ah...."


    Ugh, are you okay?


    "... yes, I feel relieved to see Aqua."


    Tiararose laughs bitterly when it''s embarrassing.But from Aquastead''s point of view, it''s just cute.


    I''m glad Aqua''s safe.


    Both of you gently stroke your chest.


    "So... what is this all about?"


    "Ah... that''s right. If you give it to me, in front of everyone....!"


    All of a sudden, the shame grew, and Tiararose hid her red cheeks with both hands.


    "... I''ll prepare a new tea, so let''s calm down."


    In Elaine''s words, Tiararose nodded desperately.


    "I''m sorry for the unexpected visit.I am Aquastead, the husband of Tiararose.Thank you for saving my wife. "


    "No, I did the right thing. My name is Luca."


    "I''m Rio, my twin brother."


    My name is Elaine.


    Everyone sat down and briefly introduced themselves.


    Next, I informed Aquastead of the current situation in Tiararose.Luka and Rio helped me fall in the woods.


    Of course, the mother and child have no problems after seeing a doctor.


    Next, an anomaly occurs in the sky.


    Luca explained to me what kind of phenomenon was happening, as Luca and Rio were hardly aware of this.


    "I''ve never seen such a sky or a bird."


    Aquastead told me he saw the sky on his way here.However, I shake my head if I don''t know the cause at all.


    "When it comes to the weather, I wonder what happened to the Fairy King in the sky, but I''ve never heard of a bird..."


    Looks like it''s in a raised state.


    It''s the same with Luca and the others.


    "I''ve read a lot of literature, but there''s no such thing.I''m still desperately looking into it, but it''s hard.... "


    Luca shakes her head without strength and tells her that she can only defeat the birds that attack her.


    Without telling everyone what to do, there was a moment of silence... and Elaine opened her mouth with regret.


    "I''m sure Luca and Rio had plans.Mr. Tiararose and Mr. Aquastead will be tired, so why don''t we open them for now? "


    "Ah - speaking of which, yes."


    Luca smiles bitterly when she completely forgets.Next to him, Rio looked like he was in trouble.


    "Even if our schedule is okay, you should get some rest.Elaine, I need a guest room for both of you. "


    "Yes"


    Following Luca''s instructions, Elaine left her seat once.


    "Um, Mr. Tiararose, please rest first in your health.If anything happens, I''ll be there as soon as you call me. "


    "Thank you, Luca and Rio have taken care of you."


    When Tiararose seemed sorry, Rio shook his head.


    "Absolutely! That''s all right. I mean, I think the sky is making me worried about a lot... but we can solve it, it''s okay."


    You''re very reliable.


    Tiararose smiles at Rio as he holds his fist and declares.


    Aquastead also looked at Luca and Rio and smiled, "You''re strong."


    "If there''s anything I can do to help, I''m here to help, so call me anytime."


    "Yes, thank you!"


    Then Elaine came back just in time.


    Tiararose and Aquastead were guided to the guest room, and Luca and Rio left because they had business to attend to.


    Upon arrival in the guest room led by Elaine, Tiararose took a deep breath.


    That''s right, there was a lot going on, and it seemed to be putting too much force into my body.


    The guest room I was provided with was a calm room with a light blue tone.


    Flower paintings on the walls for cute cat feet.The large windows open onto a balcony overlooking the city.


    The next room is a bedroom and you can lie down right next to it.


    Tiara


    "Aqua...? Ah,"


    When I was called, I turned around and was hugged.


    That''s right, there were a lot of people back there.


    "Aqua... but so am I."


    Tiararose also turned her hand around Aquastead''s back and hugged her tightly.It was only for a short while, but I''m so relieved.


    Rubbing his face around Aquastead''s chest, Tiararose repeatedly said, "Good."


    "We were just watching the Summer Festival stars, and suddenly we got separated... and I wondered what would happen."


    Good to see you, Tiararose smiles.


    "Exactly, I was surprised.When I woke up, Tiara was gone... and I couldn''t help but faint my own indecency.I''m sorry I couldn''t help you properly.... "


    "Oh no... there was nothing I could do about it.And Aqua came looking for me. "


    Tiararose laughs bitterly when she is very surprised.


    "I was going to find Aqua, too."


    "Tiara? I''m glad to hear that... but I''ll be waiting if I can.Then I''ll find it wherever you are. "


    ¨D¨D


    According to Aquastead, Tiararose dyes her cheeks.


    It''s like a princess trying to help me.


    - Well, Aqua is really a prince.


    But Tiararose is worried about Aqua Steed.I wonder if it''s good enough to go looking for it...


    Tiararose raised her face and glanced at Aquastead and said, "Hmm?"and smiled with a very gentle face.


    I can''t say I don''t like this.


    "... wherever you are, I''m waiting for you to believe in Aqua"


    "Yeah."


    Hearing the words of Tiararose, Aquastead narrowed her eyes.I can touch my cheeks while I stroke my head.


    The warmth of Aquastead''s hands is pleasant, and Tiararose naturally narrows her eyes... and takes Aquastead''s whisper as it is.


    "Nh...."


    A gentle kiss that just touches lightly, but fills your body.But I want more...Tiararose calls himself "Aqua."


    Then a naughty smile came back.


    "What''s the matter, Tiara?"


    "Ugh... Aqua, that''s not good.... you know what I mean. "


    "Yeah, I''m sorry."


    Aquastead mouthes a simple apology and talks to Tiararose again.Now let''s enjoy that lip even deeper.


    Aquastead leans against the body, signaling a sweet exhalation from the tear rose.


    "A-h! Aqua?"


    "I was told that both mother and child are healthy, but I''m sure I''m tired.Why don''t you sweeten your words and let me rest for a while? "


    "Ah...."


    Tiararose nods when she sees Aquastead''s feet pointed towards the bedroom.Certainly, I''ve been a little nervous for a long time, and now I''m a little sleepy.


    "While Tiara''s asleep, I''ll give you a hug."


    That''s why I was kissed by the tip of my nose.


    They fell asleep in bed and hugged Aquastead from Tiararose.


    "Calm down?"


    "... yes. Well, all the time... even now, I don''t know where I am...I just couldn''t calm down. "


    It still feels strange, but Aquastead is a lot different just by the side.


    The sleeping demon didn''t come soon, so Tiararose said what she thought.


    "This... is the royal castle where we live... I think something''s wrong."


    I feel uncomfortable with the buildings I''ve seen, the landscape, but I can''t wipe them.And all the people who live there are people Tiararose doesn''t know.


    Aquastead laughs bitterly at Tiararose''s words.As a matter of fact, I have a faint idea what this place is.


    "Yes... I woke up in a place that wasn''t here, but I thought it was the same as Tiara."


    And Aqua?


    "Yes, of course about this place, but I''m more concerned about the sky."


    "... yes. Do you know anything about Claire?"


    The first thing that comes to mind with the sky anomaly is the Sky Fairy King Crail.


    However, Tiararose has not received any blessings from Craig, so it is difficult to get in touch with him.


    Aquastead is blessed with Crail, so we can check it out.That might bring us closer to a solution.


    In Tiararose''s words, Aquastead nodded, "That''s right."


    "It''s just... it looks like Craig isn''t around anyway."


    "Eh, Crail-san...?"


    "Maybe there''s something going on around here."


    Aquastead laughs bitterly when there are a lot of difficult problems.


    "For now, there is no danger to us.Tiara had Luca and Rio help her fall in the woods, didn''t she?Rest a little longer. "


    It''s not good for the baby, either.


    "... yes"


    Aquastead strokes his head and Tiararose releases his strength from his body.I thought maybe I even lost my eyes when I was talking, but it didn''t seem that way.


    When Tiararose honestly closed her eyes, Aquastead stroked her head.And what you hear is a calm tenor voice pageant.


    --Aqua''s babysitting song.


    When I realized it, I fell asleep in Aquastead''s arms.

 172 7. Tea time

    The sound of rain raised Tiararose''s consciousness.


    When I move my neck while I''m asleep and look outside, it''s raining in the dust instead of the sunny days earlier.The black rain clouds make it difficult to guess the current time.


    Tiara?


    I was called by my name and hugged from behind.You can see that your body is relaxing in this warmth.


    Looking dextrously while being hugged, there was an Aqua Steed face with a slight fatigue.


    "... have you been awake? Aqua"


    "No, I slept a little."


    "You''ve been resting all my life."


    Tiararose puts her hand on Aquastead''s cheeks and smiles, "Thank you."


    Luca and Rio have been very kind, but the situation is often unclear.I know that I can''t sleep easily.


    "Take a rest, Aqua. Now I''m awake."


    Leave it to me, Tiararose smiles with her chest up.


    "Thank you, Tiara. Now... sweeten your words a bit"


    Aquastead said so and closed his eyes with a gentle hug about Tiararose.Looks like a replacement for a pillow.


    Of course, I''m glad to have you as a pillow... but if you can''t now, Tiararose will try to get out of Aquastead''s arms.


    --Then you''re going to sleep with me!


    I have to stay awake, but I''m confident I''ll sleep with you...!


    Tiararose tried desperately, but she couldn''t get out because she was hugged firmly besides her thoughts.


    "Aqua, Aqua!"


    "Nh...."


    I rushed to call Aquastead''s name, but he''s already asleep.


    "Eh, I''m already asleep...."


    Surprisingly, Tiararose usually goes to bed earlier, so it feels kind of fresh.


    --I ''m sure you''ve been very careful.


    Tiararose kissed Aquastead''s forehead with a small thank you murmur.


    Behind the castle is a tower.Luca is using it to study magic and already treats it like a private room.


    Because there are important books and dangerous tools, the entrance is magical and cannot be entered without Luca''s permission.


    Rio looked up at the tower and sighed, "You''re immersed in research..."


    Luckily, Luca showed her face immediately today, although there are many things she wouldn''t notice if she succeeded.


    If you''re obsessed with magic research, you won''t even notice the sound of knocking.At that time, it can take long enough to get out.


    "Rio? What''s wrong?"


    "Elaine''s calling. I''ve prepared some sweets for Mr. Tiararose, so I''ll have tea."


    "Okay, then I''ll take some fun games with me.Because I think I''m a little distracted. "


    Luca returned to the tower with a simple game.


    Well then, let''s go.


    Ah.


    When Elaine went to the waiting room, a tea set was provided in the wagon.


    A pastel-coloured macaron and candied ribbon creates a macaron tower with floral crochet bushes.The cup pudding has plenty of raw cream and large strawberries on top.The tart cake is made with lemon and has a refreshing flavor.


    Luka and Rio suddenly shouted, "Oops!"


    "This is amazing...."


    "But that''s just too much...?"


    That''s enough to make me think.


    But Elaine shook her head and said, "That''s not true!Strongly denied Rio''s words.


    "You must be worried about Tiararose, so I want you to feel better about eating lots of sweets!"


    "Well, I certainly don''t have eyes on sweets...."


    "It''s fine, you can have whatever you like.Besides, if you play a game, it''ll calm you down a bit. "


    I see.


    Rio nodded and walked out on the wagon that Elaine had prepared.


    "Dear Rio, I will..."


    "Elaine, did you tell him we were going?"


    "A-ah"


    When Elaine tried to tell Rio that it was her job, Luca asked if she had the promise - bluishing her face for not doing it.


    Well then, can you tell her I''ll have tea?Just don''t push me. "


    "Ok, I''ll make sure it''s done quickly!"


    Looking at Elaine running around in a dress, Luca and Rio looked at each other and smiled bitterly.


    I fell asleep - I thought so, Tiararose, but I had a good night''s sleep and I was able to wake up.


    This also includes the reason that you were observing Aquastead''s sleeping face.


    I was thinking of observing a little more, and the knock sounded.Looks like someone''s been visiting.


    The sound made the Aquastead twitch.


    "Nh, visitors...?"


    "I think so. I''ll be there for a while."


    "No, I''m coming.Tiara is waiting. "


    Aqua Steed immediately stood up, put on his jacket and left the bedroom.Then I heard the voice "It''s Elaine."


    When I opened the door, Elaine stood a little out of breath.


    You''ve kept me waiting.


    "No, Luka and Rio''s appointment is over, so I thought maybe it would be tea time..."


    Elaine smiles when she has plenty of sweets.


    "Thank you, Tiara will be delighted, so please."


    "Yes! I''ll get ready for you right away.In the meantime, I''ll be able to help you two get back together. "


    "Well, I''ll be fine, so can I have a tiara?"


    "I''ll take care of it!"


    Elaine asked a nearby maid to tell Luca and Rio about tea time and entered the room saying, "Excuse me."


    Then, Tiararose, who was in the bedroom, just peeked into her face.I heard Aquastead and Elaine talking.


    "Dear Tiararose, have you had a good night off?"


    "Yes, thank you very much, Elaine."


    "Great, I''m getting ready for tea time, so I''ll help you get dressed."


    Elaine took Tiararose to the toilet and prepared herself.


    Wash your face, apply light makeup, and smooth your hair.Sprinkle small flower accessories into three loose braids and flush forward.


    A pale pink dress in pastel color made me wear a white bolero.


    "Very well suited, Master Tiararose."


    Thank you, Elaine.


    When I was ready, I heard something from the room.


    Ah, it looks like Luca and Rio are here.


    "You''ve both been busy, and you''ve taken your time."


    When Tiararose and Elene went to the room, Luca and Rio greeted me with a smile.And on the table, there are so many sweets you can''t hide once in a while.


    - Wow, wow!


    I was surprised when I unexpectedly opened my eyes.


    "As you can see, it''s raining so much outside, I thought it would be a game while snapping sweets."


    "It''s a little late for tea time because it''s evening, but please take your time."


    "Well... thank you, Luca, Rio."


    Tiararose was honestly grateful to be able to refresh herself with something sweet because she often had a lot of thoughts and concerns.


    After all, I can do my best to eat sweets and get better.


    Soon, Aquastead came to Tiararose and reached out for an escort to the couch.


    "Go ahead."


    Thank you, Aqua.


    As soon as the two of us sat on the sofa, tea time began.


    While drinking the prepared flower tea, Tiararose glitters with the card at hand.


    The official name is "Fairy Play Card," commonly known as "Fairy Card."But the reality is what we call "cards."


    Besides, Tiararose knows all about play.Neuropathy, millionaires, babbling, seven lines... and so on.


    At first, I had a nervous breakdown, but everyone''s memory was too strong to compete.For that reason, I''m now arranging seven lines... but they were all too curved and tear rose white.


    --They ''re all too strong...


    Luca, Rio and Elaine would be used to it, but the Aquastead they should have seen for the first time was also strong.


    In Tiararose, which I did a little in my previous life, I don''t think I can beat him.


    "Ah, no... it''s a strawberry defeat"


    There is no place to put the card, and the teardrop poses as a surrender.If I can make it home safely, I''d like to make some cards and train.


    The winner was Aquastead.


    "I didn''t think I''d lose...Is it too strong? "


    Luca seemed to be good at this game and dropped her shoulders.


    "No, I''m just lucky.It''s the first card to be distributed, and it''s going to depend a lot, right? "


    "Luck is in strength," he said.


    Aquastead shook her head by chance, but Rio praised her for not doing so.By the way, Rio was second from the bottom.


    Tiararose eats a piece of shoe cream and breathes.When I was playing the game, time passed quickly.


    --I should have asked you a lot of questions.


    After all, it''s fun to spend time with Luca and Rio.


    He also prepared so many sweets that he loved Tiararose.I understand that you are very careful.


    But that''s why it''s not good to just be sweet.


    The problem now is the status quo of the Tiararoses and the anomaly of the sky.


    Tiararose also knows that this place is different from the Marine Forest where she lives.


    However, I don''t know exactly where it is.


    Maybe it''s the past, maybe the future.There is also the possibility of a very different parallel world.


    Tiararose took a quiet deep breath and saw Luca and Rio to talk.

 173 8. Tiararose Call

    The country''s air and buildings.Those things are the Marine Forest that Tiararose knows, but people he doesn''t know spend them with.


    No, it is unlikely that I have simply seen all the people who don''t know Tiararose, but it is unnatural to do so.


    "Luca, Rio. I don''t know how to put it, but... where is it?"


    With his serious eyes on Tiararose, Luca and Rio look at each other and wonder what happened.


    Perhaps because I thought it would be better not to tell... who we are.


    Luca and Rio shut their mouths because they talked about the question.


    "Ah, uh... I''m sorry. It''s too sudden, isn''t it?"


    If Tiararose doesn''t explain his current situation properly, all of a sudden they''ll both be in trouble if they ask where he is.


    I think it would be better to explain myself first and then mix the information together again.


    --You didn''t even reveal your identity in the first place.


    I once again reflect that I have been sweet to both of you for a long time.


    Aquastead, sitting next to her, looked at the tear roses and gently held her shoulder, "It''s okay."


    The expression of Luca and Rio soothes after seeing Aquastead who cares about Tiararose.That''s because there''s a reason to be happy that they''re getting along.


    Luca looked straight at Tiararose and opened her mouth.


    "I can''t answer the question of where we are... exactly.I suppose the magic of the ocean caused some distortion. "


    For this reason, Luca smiled like she was in trouble because she couldn''t give Tiararose the answers she wanted.


    "Perhaps we should not know much about each other... that''s what I think."


    "Should I not know...?"


    "Sometimes it can be weird and negative, right?"


    "Well... that''s probably true."


    Perhaps you are concerned about the difference between where you were and where you are, and you may try to do something about it.


    What you can do here is not necessarily what you can do in your original location. On the contrary.


    I think it''s like God''s prank.


    That''s what I thought, but I thought it might have started since I was born.Is it precisely from the moment the memory of the previous life comes back to life?


    It is strange that I feel like I can understand this situation quite well.


    "I''m sorry... I couldn''t get the answers you wanted."


    "No, Luca is very kind and sincere."


    You can even arrange the lies properly.But Luca told me I shouldn''t be honest.


    When Tiararose smiles, Luca smiles bitterly.


    "But it is true that we do not know the solution to the current situation.In the same way, it may suddenly return to its original location, and it may remain this way forever. "


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Luca''s words, Tiararose lost her words and took a breath.However, Luca slowly shakes her head to deny her hypothesis.


    "Nevertheless, I think it''s very unlikely.I''m sure it''s not that simple... and above all, you have plenty of comfortable allies? "


    "Ah...."


    There are only two of us here, Tiararose and Aquastead, but I''m sure we can count on them.


    I''m sure Philline is worried about finding Tiararose and looking after Lucia Rose.Elliot may be trying to uncover the truth of the incident while being swayed by acari.Besides, the three fairy kings will have noticed that they have disappeared.


    If you think about it so far - even if you don''t have to do anything, you''ll feel relieved that you''re not here to help.


    --Just a little cooler.


    Tiararose took a deep breath and nodded forcefully.


    "But we can''t leave everyone worried.We will also investigate the magic distortion. Hey, Aqua. "


    "That''s good, but don''t overdo it.It is also possible to touch the magic and destabilize the baby''s belly. "


    "Yes, I am very careful."


    Luca was relieved to see Tiararose and Aquastead talking.Sometimes I didn''t know how to explain this world... but I''m glad you''re feeling better.


    "I will escort the knight when I go out.Now that birds come from the sky, it''s more dangerous than usual. "


    "Thank you, Luca. Your words will be sweetened."


    "No. Nevertheless, with this rain of dust and sand... it''s hard to get to the forest.The rainforest is dangerous because of its poor vision. "


    The constant rain roared the sound of thunder.


    It''s never rained so hard since Tiararose was reincarnated in this world.I hope the thunderstorm passes by in the middle of the night...


    The night has passed, but the weather remains the same as yesterday.


    The sound of thunder and strong wind, the rain of a beating.The flowers on the flowerbed break their necks, and you can see tree branches flying through the window due to strong winds.


    Tiararose stepped out of bed and sighed small.


    "Well then, going to the woods seems difficult...."


    At least we could have gone without lightning and strong winds, but there is also the danger of lightning strikes, and the Tiararose will do its best to reach the entrance to the forest.


    So why don''t you ask the fairies about the woods?And then I came up with this. If it were a forest fairy, Tiararose would be here any minute.


    Maybe he''s sheltering in the rain somewhere in the castle.


    "I want you to come under me, fairies of the forest."


    I don''t hear anything, I don''t hear anything back.Normally, you''d get a reply in a few minutes and show me who you are.


    --Maybe it''s raining, so I can''t come.


    Then what about the sea fairy?


    They can mediate water and emerge.For example, water, teacups. From there, we can show ourselves.


    Holding a bedside water bottle, he said, "Do you have a sea fairy?- But he still hasn''t responded.


    - Well, then.


    "Keith, if you''re here, come to me."


    However, there is no response from Keith.


    I hardly ever call from Tiararose, but this is the first time.I wonder if Keith can''t move either.


    No - maybe it''s not the Keith that Tiararose knows.


    I haven''t confirmed the Fairy King with my own eyes since I''ve been here in the first place.


    "... I''m not impressed to call another man''s name in the bedroom."


    "Ah, Aqua!"


    "With the anomaly of the sky, the fairy disappeared."


    Looking back, Aqua Steed had just woken up from his bed, lacking in stretch.I was asleep today more than usual because of my short sleep yesterday.


    Aquastead stretches out his arms and hugs the tear rose.


    Good morning, Tiara.


    "Yes, good morning."


    Leaning against the warm Aquastead, Tiararose smiles.But the expression is cloudier than usual.


    "The day I woke up, I saw the fairies.Luca and Rio seem to like each other, along with the forest fairies. "


    Tiararose was happier with what he said.


    "I''ve never seen anyone close to a forest fairy."


    Sea and sky fairies are human-friendly and often blessed.However, only the fairies of the forest rarely blessed humans.The fact that Tiararose was blessed by a forest fairy can be said to be an exception.


    Otherwise, Lilliage would be better friends than Tiararose.


    If you think so, Tiararose thinks this is not the Marine Forest you know.


    Or it could be decades, hundreds of years away.


    Think of a world where a forest fairy and a human are getting along.


    --Sure, it''s going to be a waste of time.


    If the forest fairies were to treat the people the same way as Luca and Rio - that might be what they want.However, you may feel lonely and jealous... but with fairy blessings, the country will be richer and people will be happier.


    "The fairies in the woods stick to Tiara.Even though Tiara is mine, I''m jealous. "


    "Oh no...."


    "Well, it''s time to get up. Cute wife, let''s get ready for breakfast."


    "... yes"


    With a dull smile, Aquastead sends a kiss to the temples of Tiararose.I stood up and started the morning routine.


    While Aquastead is preparing, Tiararose brews tea.Serve with lemon to refresh.


    When you''re done, have your maid call you at the bell in your room to prepare breakfast.


    Behind a warm and delicious meal, Tiararose is anxious.This rain won''t stop... that''s how it feels.


    --It can''t be.


    However, I have unpleasant chest trouble.

 174 9. What you can do for each

    Your envious consciousness is slowly rising.Is that because the sound of a little knock called concon turned into a pounding sound?


    Luca rubs her eyes and stretches.Apparently, he fell asleep while studying magic.


    When I peeked into the mirror in the bathroom space, there were marks of clothes on my cheeks.


    Hurry up and wash your face, drink some water, and bring your awareness to the sound of knocking that you were a visitor.


    I''m sure this knock is Elaine''s way.


    "--Please wait."


    "It''s too late, Luka! How long do you think I''ve waited in front of the door..."


    "Sorry, it''s wet. Come on in."


    The outside is still raining in the dust, and the ground is muddy.Elaine wears a coat to keep it from getting wet, but it doesn''t make much sense in this rain.


    Luca prepares a towel and gently wipes Elaine''s hair.I wish I could have dried it with magic, but I couldn''t help it because of the enormous magic.


    Elaine wipes with a towel and smiles, "It''s okay."I used my magic to quickly dry my wet hair.


    "Wouldn''t it be bad if Elaine caught a cold in the rain?If you need anything, ask Rio to use it. "


    "If that happens, Rio will catch a cold."


    "Rio is tough, so it''s okay."


    Luca laughs and grabs the cookies she always stocks.When it is troublesome to go for breakfast, this is often done.


    But doing it always pisses Elaine off.


    "Ah, how many times have I told you that cookies aren''t good in the morning..."


    "You like cookies so much, don''t you?Besides, it''s delicious. It''s my mother''s recipe. "


    "I know it''s delicious, and I often take snacks.I mean, it''s no use living a regular life... hah, no matter how careful I am "


    Elaine sighs small and sees magic books and magical formations spread out on her desk.


    "What about the research results?"


    "Hmm... one more shard, something''s missing.But I don''t know... I''m struggling. "


    This tower behind the royal castle is used by Luca for magic research.


    Although it was a study that I started with the heart of my desire to control my magic, now I think that pure magic is fun.


    What magic can do is infinite.


    Just a little... no... pretty much. There''s too much magic in Luca to use freely.


    Luca takes a deep, long breath and looks out the window with her gaze shifted to the side.


    "If we can harness the power of Rio and I... we''ll be able to contain this sky anomaly.We have to do something now that Father and Craig are gone. "


    If it''s Luca, I''m sure I can do it.


    Elaine smiles and looks at the sky, "It''s okay."


    "I know.Luca and Rio are very strong.... well, maybe it would be best if your fathers came back. "


    "That''s... well, yeah.But I''m going on a pleasant trip, so I''m sure it''s impossible.Probably won''t be back until after this problem is solved. "


    "Well...."


    Though he is a kind parent, this case will be a challenge for his son to grow.That''s why Luca was thinking of ways to minimize her sleep and manage the anomaly in the sky.


    I heard a voice screaming in Luca''s ear, mistaken for the sound of rain.


    Looking out the window, Rio was fighting with the Knights'' morale.


    The thunderbolt echoes in anger.


    Rio is desperately grasping the situation and giving instructions.


    "Damn, that bird again! The sword won''t reach you, so hold your bow!Those who can use magic will do the same, and others will help! "


    Yes!


    The knights do what they can.


    The birds defeated by Ranged Attacks are collected and cleaned up by the avant-garde knights.At the same time, guide people who have not been evacuated to a safe place.


    But in this rain, some knights are trained from day to day.Your body temperature is stealing, and your breathing is getting shallow.


    "Ahh, if only I had more power...!"


    Rio walks in the dungeon and looks up at the sky.


    I''m good at weapons like swords and bows like Luca, but I''m not good at Rio.Moreover, magic cannot be used because magic control does not work well.


    Even if you use it, mistakes in control will explode.


    --That said, we can''t just leave it like this.


    The number of birds is growing so much that I think it''s coming from the rain.


    "Lord Styrio, we have a wounded man!"


    "--call the paramedics right away!Take me indoors whenever you can. "


    Ha!


    As it stands, it''s being pushed.If we don''t get through this place somehow, we''ll be getting more and more exhausted.


    Rio thinks about what to do and looks at the mountain behind the castle.If you go to the top of the mountain, you can see the entire city from the castle.


    Ichikaba-chika


    Rio left the scene in charge and ran to the back of the mountain.


    It was Elaine who was waiting for Luca to prepare to see it through the window.Looking at Rio, who ran away, he panicked.


    "Luca-sama, Rio-sama ran away somewhere!!"


    "Ahh....."


    Luca with a bow smiles bitterly at Elaine''s words.That''s what I thought it was like in Rio.


    --But it makes sense.


    "Unstoppable thunderstorms and strong winds, birds.Not knowing how long it will last can drain your mind badly.I think Rio was going to destroy one or eight... "


    "Eh... but how do you do that?"


    Elaine''s question is correct.Rio has no power to destroy that bird.However, the possibility is not zero.


    "If Rio and I control the magic and hit the sky... maybe we can blow it up."


    "Eh...."


    Innocence made Elaine want to scream instantly.


    "Both of you, magic control always... explodes! It''s useless!!"


    It''s not just guts that can handle it, Elaine has tearful eyes.


    But when it comes to Luca, we can''t leave the sky like this forever.Even if it detonates, the backyard in the thunderstorm... will minimize the damage.However, the effect of success is enormous.


    Luca puts her hand on Elaine''s head and smiles, "It''s okay."


    "Unlike Rio, I don''t gamble without winning."


    "Does that mean, uh, there''s a winning chance?"


    "- Yes, and I have a little insurance."


    "Insurance?"


    Elaine leans her neck strangely, wondering what that is.Though I thought it might be the Knights'' Placement, we''re all being chased by the sky now.


    Or are you asking the Fairy King for help?But there is no sign of it.


    "There''s an irregular existence, isn''t there?"


    Ah¡­ Your Majesty Aquastead and Master Tiararose?


    "Correct"


    Luca praises Elaine for doing well.


    "If anything happens to me and Rio, it won''t be safe with them."


    "No, no, no, what are you talking about? Luka!! That''s the premise that something happened between Luka and Rio!!"


    If that doesn''t work, Elaine will make her voice rough.


    However, as for Luca, there is only that kind of solution at the moment, and we have calculated about magic, but that is the most likely.


    "So, I''m going there a little bit.Elaine, please leave a message here. "


    "Oh, wait a minute, Luka."


    Luca wore the hood of her coat and threw herself through the window with a smile and smile.Having landed lightly from the second floor of the tower, Luca is heading straight for the back mountain.


    Rio''s whereabouts are reacted to by matching bracelets, and we can find out to some extent here.


    I hope you don''t run ahead by yourself and wait for me...With that in mind, Luca rushed to the top of the mountain.


    "Aqua, we''re in a lot of trouble out there!"


    "Is that bird here again?"


    I can''t go to the woods until it stops raining.Maybe I couldn''t afford to think of such a long story.


    Aquastead also looked hard and saw the birds attacking the knights.From here on out, it''s going to be a battle against the air, so it seems like we''re being forced into a struggle.The Knights are fighting well, but we don''t know how long they''ll last.


    "That''s right, I can''t overlook this...With magic, it shouldn''t be so hard to defeat a bird. "


    That way, Aquastead holds the love sword standing on the wall and puts it on his hips.I wish I had a jacket, but I couldn''t help it.


    Tiararose slightly distorted his expression when he understood that he was going to join forces.I would like to say that I don''t want you to go, but considering the situation, I can''t say that either.


    --I ''m sure you need a little help.


    There are more birds flying in the sky than we''ve seen before.Tiararose knows the situation is getting worse and worse.


    Aquastead gently strokes Tiararose''s head.


    "Tiara, I''m fine.Don''t worry, I want you to wait here.If you''re worried, you can call Elaine and ask her to stay with you. "


    "Aqua... But I can''t believe you''re just waiting for me..."


    I understand that when I go with you, my feet and hands are tight, and I have a new life in my stomach.Reason has concluded that we have to wait in the room, but I also have a great feeling that I want to do something.


    Tiararose looks at Aquastead in prayer with her hands tied in front of her chest.


    --You have to tell them the words you''re sending out.


    I have to tell them, but they''re going to say, "Take me with you."You''re just embarrassing Aquastead.


    Tiararose laughs without strength and relaxes his shoulders.


    "Aqua. I believe in Aqua..."


    Waiting, that''s the moment I tried to keep saying that.Of the two rings on Tiararose''s left hand ring, the "King of the Starry Sky Ring" emitted light.

 175 10. The power of Luca and Rio

    Luca and Rio were single-egg twins, and there was something going on between them since they were born.It''s not something that can be translated well, but is the most fulfilling word, "connected"?


    There is something like that invisible bond between the two, and you can use special magic.


    It gives Rio Luka magic and explodes his physical abilities.The movement is like thunder and difficult to follow with your eyes.


    We were special, and Luca and Rio were delighted.But can you use it well?If asked, that is a different issue.


    I tried it several times, but it was difficult to control magic and exploded.


    Gives Luca even more magic to Rio, which is originally magical.Control is harder than using magic on your own.


    But if we can handle it well - we will not lose anything.


    Rio!


    Carefully, but quickly, Luca runs up the Thunderstorm Mountain calling Rio.


    I have some training so I have basic health, but my breath is already cut off just because it is a mountain road.I regret that I should have practiced my magic without letting it be studied.


    "Hah, hah...."


    Move your feet as you pause and feel like you want to rest.Otherwise, I would not be able to run as it is.


    The sky from among the trees is still filled with thunderclouds.It seems to be getting bigger and bigger, and if left alone, it will cover the entire Marine Forest.


    --If only I had more power.


    Luca always thinks that.


    If you try to use magic, it will explode uncontrollably... but I''m glad it has enormous magic in it.It''s a toothache that you can''t treat it as you please.


    "It''s time to go to Rio..."


    We should get there.


    Looking around with that in mind, there was a giant bird about to attack Rio.Because of his size, he''s probably in a position like the boss of a herd.


    "Have you come to eliminate us as a threat...?"


    Luca smiled and, in a few seconds, she held her bow and threw an arrow.But it never hit a giant bird.


    "Shit, did you avoid it?"


    Too bad.


    As the giant birds rose high in the sky, Rio noticed Luca.


    "Luca! I''ve been waiting!"


    "I don''t mind waiting, but could you tell me a word and then move on to implementation?"


    Really, Luca laughs bitterly that Rio is always a pig rush.


    "But Luca came, didn''t she?Luca had already assumed that I would come up with something. "


    "Absolutely... there''s nothing to praise."


    Eh, you''re not answering?


    In Luca''s words, Rio looked terribly unfortunate - both laughing instantly.


    "If I were to leave... the clear sky of the Marine Forest..."


    That''s good.


    Let''s do something about this anomalous sky.


    They touched with their bracelet arms and wished for their victory.


    Take off your usual dress and wrap yourself in easy-to-move knight clothing.Long boots are well constructed so they don''t fall slightly or gently when stepping on the muddy ground.


    Tiararose takes a big deep breath and looks forward.


    It''s okay, Tiara.


    "... yes!"


    Tiararose answers clearly, taking Aquastead''s hand as he walks forward.


    This is the back of the royal castle.


    Thunderstorms make the roads muddy and the visibility worse.Originally, it is not very difficult in Tiararose, but it is not such a place to come.


    I wish it were a sunny day, but even if it rained a little, Aquastead would have stopped.


    But Tiararose is walking in the mountains.


    "Hah, hah,... the ring is pointing in the direction of the summit."


    "The summit..."


    Aquastead bitterly laughs at her endlessness.


    "But what the hell is going on?Never before have the King of the Starry Sky rings reacted. "


    The King of the Starry Sky ring shines on the ring finger of Tiararose''s left hand, connected to the power of Aquastead.


    The power of Aquastead flows to Tiararose through the ring, but it usually feels nothing and is in the same condition as a regular ring.


    --What exactly is there before the ring is shown?


    I don''t know, but... sometimes I feel it.


    That''s what makes you think that what leads to the ring is so important.I wonder if the King''s Ring of the Starry Sky is leading us to such a situation that we have to go.


    Because I thought about it, Tiararose was accidentally caught by the roots of the tree and was about to fall.


    Kyah


    "Tiara! After all, I''ll cover you up..."


    "No, it''s all right. We can''t put that burden on Aqua."


    Tiararose shook his head and repeatedly said, "It''s okay."


    "Nevertheless, I''m really sorry for my slow feet....."


    As expected, the thunderstorm climb was unexpected.


    It''s a long way to the summit, and it''ll take a few hours at this pace.Tiararose is worried that he will be able to climb all the way up.


    "There''s nothing to apologize for.In this situation, it is difficult to train properly. "


    "But...."


    Innocence - When I tried to keep saying that, the roots of the trees that had been taken from me moved around.


    "©¤!?"


    Tiara!


    Aqua Steed immediately took cover of Tiararose, putting his hand on the handle of the sword with which he was wearing the sword, and watching his surroundings at the same time.


    If the enemy comes from the ground as well as the birds in the sky - it''s a mess.


    But there was no attack I feared.


    ¡­¡­


    Aquastead narrows her eyes and turns her gaze to the left and right... but only the root of her feet is moving.It grew slowly and broke the trunk of the tree - it became like an entrance.


    "Eh... what does this mean?"


    Tiararose looks at the entrance to the Aqua Steed and the trunk of the tree in a bewildered manner.Then flowers bloomed inside, and a light lit up in the center.


    I recognize Tiararose.It''s a glowing flower I''ve seen in Keith''s castle and the forest fairy aisle.


    Tiara Rose and Aqua Steed meet face to face with their eyes open.


    Keith, I wonder.


    "Maybe."


    I can''t show you, but I can feel the signs.They seem to be helping us.


    "I wish you''d show me."


    I think so.


    "But there''s definitely a reason why we can''t do that.I can''t believe Keith didn''t show up freely.... "


    That''s right.


    For any reason, I can think of Keith who might say, "Well, it''s okay."


    As far as Tiararose knows, the Fairy King of the Forest, who blessed himself, is so free as to contest one or two in this world.Another person contending with the top, by the way, is an unspeakable acari.


    Aquastead takes a step into the trunk to make sure it''s safe.


    "It looks like it''s okay. We should go inside, rather than going outside."


    I don''t know where the path leads in the trunk of the tree, but it''s much safer considering Keith''s signs and exposure to the outside rain.


    Tiararose nodded and took the hand of the Aqua Steed that had been offered, and proceeded to the path leading to the trunk of the tree.


    The strange path was very peaceful.


    It''s not raining, there''s no need to worry about thunderstorms, and there''s not even a strong wind.Because it is illuminated by light, it is easy to check the surrounding situation, but it was a main road in the first place.


    It''s a gentle uphill slope, so it''s probably going to the top of the mountain.


    "The ring is also pointing down the road."


    "We should think of something at the top of the mountain."


    "Yes"


    After about twenty minutes of walking, I arrived at the exit.


    At the same time, a loud cry called "Cuer" shook Tiararose''s tympanic membrane.Cover your ears and crouch in.


    --What the hell is going on!?


    I thought it might have been a bird in the sky, but I didn''t think it was the same bird when I thought about the sound and the force.


    Aqua Steed stepped forward to protect Tiararose and stared gently outside.


    "Luca, Rio...? You''re fighting a giant bird!"


    "Eh!?"


    Tiararose trembles at Aquastead''s words as he sees them.


    "Are there any other knights?Just the two of us - on such a big bird!? "


    Tiararose sighed and opened her eyes.A giant bird will have three meters because of it.


    Only Luca and Rio are fighting it.


    --You two are in danger!


    Tiararose can''t help but think.But if they ask me if I have enough power to support them - no.


    You can''t just make and throw away sweets that improve your physical abilities.


    Rio stood in front of him, and Luca stood behind him some distance away.I have a bow in my hand, but I have no arrows.


    Instead, the bracelet attached to the left hand is pale and bright.This represents the state that Luca is using magic.


    "Hmm... that''s right, I''m nervous."


    "It''s unusual for Luca to get nervous."


    "What do you think people are, Rio?"


    Luca shrugs her shoulders, but immediately narrows her eyes and looks at a giant bird that she considers an enemy.Keep your gaze still and quietly say, "Let''s go," and use magic.


    A giant bird has spread its wings and attacked us with them. --but slow.


    With Luca''s magic, Rio''s speed was like an electrolithographic flame.In an instant, his body danced through the universe and jumped up to the head of a giant bird.


    Luca was amazed at that.


    I can''t believe I jumped over there.


    It should be easy to settle as it is, but it won''t work either.Because the biggest enemy is not a giant bird, but the difficulty of controlling their magic.


    --Honestly, it''s hard to stand.


    I''ve tried to simulate it in my brain many times, but it''s hard to run it.Practicing has put many times the load on your body when you try it with a small amount of magic.


    Eat your teeth so that Luca won''t lose her pathetic voice.


    "Not enough yet. The birds may be defeated, but... we need to do more to clear this thundercloud!"


    Luca grabbed the bracelet and took a big breath.


    "If only you could bring me my body now.Forest, sky, sea, dwell in me - the magic of the moon.Respond to my voice and maximize its magic! "


    "--Luka!"


    From the body of Rio in the air, magic floods and shines.


    Luca''s magic must have flowed to Rio safely.But when you relax for a moment - magic runs wild and the future of the Big Bang awaits.


    Rio takes a short breath and tightens his mind.


    Then he tried to slap the giant bird with his sword at once - under slight wind pressure by winged wings, he lost his posture in the air.


    "Ah...."


    Perhaps that''s a moment of carelessness and relaxation.


    The bracelet on Rio''s right arm, which was as shiny as Luca''s, lost its glow.This bracelet, to put it simply, controls two magical powers.The fact that it has lost its effect means it runs wild without controlling its magic.


    --Not good.


    Luca and Rio both come to that conclusion at the same time, but it''s all they need to do to keep them from being swallowed by the magic they ran away from.


    At that time, it was the voice of Tiararose that echoed around.


    "We''re both here to help!"

 176 11. Celebrating the Starry Sky

    Tiararose and Aquastead quickly rushed underneath Luca and Rio, realizing their magic was on the run.


    Rio fell out of the air and crouched on the ground.Physical injuries don''t seem to be serious, but they look painful due to the overflowing magic.


    "Luca, Rio, come on...!Aqua, the magic runs wild - the ring!! "


    The moment I managed to find a solution - the ring of Tiararose shined more brightly.


    Of the two rings attached to the ring finger on the left hand, the "King of the Starry Sky Ring" that was shining from earlier.


    "Was the ring pointing to Luca and Rio...?"


    "Tiara, there''s nothing wrong with Tiara''s body through the ring!"


    "Aqua!?"


    Tiararose took a breath as if he were leading something.But at the same time, something went wrong with Aquastead, either through the ring.


    Aqua Steed presses his chest and kneels down.


    "... my body is hot"


    "Lie, Aqua!? Come on!"


    When Tiararose reached out impatiently, she had Aquastead''s golden eyes and eyes.It seems to be full of magic and shines brighter than usual.


    It''s like a starry sky shining in the night sky.


    --I ''ve never seen Aqua''s eyes like this.


    Even at this time, I accidentally fell in love for a moment and was taken away from my eyes.


    Shake your neck and support your Aqua Steed body if you don''t want to tear the rose.


    "Are you okay, Aqua!"


    "... ahh, it''s okay."


    Aquastead repeated shallow breaths, but loosened his cheeks slightly.


    "Maybe we were sent to this world for this."


    "Eh...? What does that mean...?"


    The enlightened Aquastead stood up slowly on the shoulders of Tiararose.And he turned to Luca and Rio.


    Tiararose saw them too.


    "Hurry up, we have to help them....!"


    There''s a giant bird overhead, and it''s going to attack us.But in fact, I couldn''t help but be intimidated by the magic of the overflowing Luca and Rio.


    "The power of the starry sky."


    Aquastead said so with a calm voice and touched the King of the Starry Sky ring on Tiararose''s ring finger.


    Then I saw the magic of Aquastead pouring into the Tiararose.It''s an unusual, definite amount of power.


    --The magic of Aqua is warm.


    From the shoulders of the tear rose, you can relax naturally.


    At the same time, understand how to use the magic of the flowing starry sky.


    - We came here to save Luca and Rio.


    Aquastead takes Tiararose''s hand and spins his words slowly.


    "The power of the starry sky that brightens the night sky.In the name of Aquastead, give him a fragment of his power.Give Luca the power to read all stars.Rio with the power to guide all stars. "


    Then, through the ring of Tiararose, light falls on Luca and Rio.The light brightens the bracelet they are wearing.


    Tiararose and Aquastead face each other and say their last words.


    Blessed be the starry sky.


    The words inspired the light of Luca and Rio''s bracelets to fly, and their golden eyes to shine.


    Through the bracelet, the starry sky blessed the two of them.


    "©¤!"


    "Ah, this is...!?"


    Luca and Rio opened their eyes and were amazed at their condition.But soon, I can grasp the current situation and get up.--Yes, there are still giant birds above your head.


    A giant bird whose magic ran wild and thought it might never be defeated again.But now, thanks to the starry sky blessings brought about by Tiararose and Aquastead, magic can be controlled more easily.


    Tiararose sighs relieved when he sees the two of them confronting a giant bird.Aquastead will support you on your shoulders this time.


    Both of you look fine now.


    "Yes, I was surprised, but I''m glad we were able to save him."


    Ah.


    Tiararose turned his gaze toward the two of them, and Luca bowed and Rio was holding a sword.


    "Wow, it''s full of magic... but I can control it.The power of the moon, be the arrow to shoot your enemies. "


    "I think I can defeat that bird by myself now!The power of the sun, dwell in the sword and shine! "


    Luca''s magic became the arrow of the bow, and Rio''s magic increased the attack power of the sword.The two shots knocked down a giant bird.


    And the sky is clear - rainbows.


    The sky, which was anomalous, regained its original color.


    Tears appeared on the corner of Tiararose''s eyes as he saw the moving sight.


    But the recoil or the great magic shook the air.


    "--no way, our current attack created a distortion!?"


    "There is, but that''s not all.This magic is empty. "


    Rio was impatient and noticed Tiararose and Aquastead.It was the same with Luca, but somewhat cooler than Rio.


    Luca grabs Rio''s hand and runs under the Tiararose.Then hurry and remove the bracelet from your arm and give it to Tiararose.


    "It seems like we don''t have much time, so be quick.Thanks to their blessings, we are now in control of magic.... please accept this bracelet as a thank you. "


    "I''ve been worried about you for a long time, but it''s okay now."


    Following Luca, Rio also handed the bracelet to Tiararose.


    "I''m sure you''ll need it."


    "Eh, Eh, Eh!? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!


    --I thought so.


    The moment I tried to tell you that, Tiararose and Aquastead disappeared.


    Only Luca and Rio remained at the top of the rainbow.


    Take off your wet coat and breathe plenty.Feeling his body relax, he broke into the ground.Rio fell asleep.


    "... he''s gone."


    "... that''s right."


    After a while of silence, Luka nods as Rio murmurs in loneliness.


    "I wonder if they... came to help us control our power."


    "I don''t know, but I don''t think my father should just ask my mother....."


    Luca thinks it''s unnecessary for Tiararose and Aquastead to come all the way here.


    The original origin was the magical distortion of the sea.Given that, I think it might be a miracle that the coincidence overlapped.


    "... I''m tired. I''m going to sleep like this."


    "Wait, Luca, don''t sleep here.If he falls asleep, I''ll suck him down the mountain. "


    Rejecting it outright, Rio calls Luca to "not sleep."... but I actually want to sleep with Rio.


    The cause is the blessing of the newly awarded starry sky... and the magic of myself who was able to use it to the best of his ability for the first time.The recoil is making me sleepy.


    "Don''t sleep, Luca."


    "Doesn''t Rio look sleepy..."


    "That''s not true...."


    While saying that, their consciousness slowly slowly slowed down.


    When I realized it, I closed my eyes and began to hear a little sleep.Apparently, the thread of tension broke and I fell asleep.


    There, a shadow falls.


    "I don''t want to. I''m not sleeping here."


    It was Keith the Fairy King of the Forest who appeared with his head open.


    Luka and Rio, who had fallen asleep, were held by their sides, sighing and transitioning.


    We flew to the two rooms in the royal castle.


    It''s troublesome to put them to bed, so throw them together in Luka''s bed.But I''m sleeping comfortably without waking up.


    Keith laughed as he watched and said, "Thank you."


    "Oh, you''re home."


    "Now... do you think they''re gonna be okay?After that, I was always worried. "


    Shaking her honey pink hair, she asks Keith.


    I know that there will be no problem if I see the reassuring expressions of the two sleeping people, but I am still worried because I am still a mother.


    "You''ll be fine. They both look tough... and they have our blessings."


    Keith laughs if he doesn''t get stuck in a bit.


    "Fufu, that''s right. Keith, thank you for saving me."


    "Nothing. It''s only natural to help a blessed woman."


    You''re very reliable.


    As she giggles, Keith smiles slightly illuminated.


    "... so, how was your trip?I didn''t think we were going alone.I''m gonna miss you. I''m gonna miss you. Think about me. "


    "It was so much fun. It''s okay, I bought souvenirs too!"


    Souvenirs, hey


    Keith predicts whether it is a rare sweet or a sweet from another country.If I suck, I even think I''m going to preach sweets and come home.


    She loves sweets too much.


    "Why do you look so upset already?It''s a stylish glass, perfect for drinking alcohol. "


    Is it a glass?


    That''s fine, Keith thinks.


    I want to drink wine with you and relax.


    "Besides, I bought chocolate that matches my alcohol!"


    I knew it.


    "What do you mean..."


    Keith chuckles as if there were some sweets.


    "Well, you can eat it with delicious wine.Of course you''re going out with me, right?The fairies rejoice. "


    "Yes, I haven''t seen the fairies in a while, so I kind of miss you...Is everybody gone now? "


    Keith tells me why he lost his sight looking for the invisible fairy.


    "I''m taking care of a rough forest.The fairies of the sky and sea hang from their positions. "


    "Ah, that''s right... When we''re done here, we have to help."


    Grasp her fist and she shows her motivation.The look was cute, and Keith loosened his mouth and held his hand as he tried to touch his head - but a third party grabbed his wrist.


    Keith, don''t touch a man''s wife.


    "Don''t come back at the right time...."


    Keith shrugged his shoulders and raised his hand to say no.


    "For now, we''re both safe."


    "Oh, thank you, Keith."


    Thank him and stroke Luca and Rio''s head.I''m sure the two of you will be able to face any difficulty.

 177 12. Each thoughts

    "Dear Tiara-sama! Dear Aqua-sama! Where are you?!!"


    In the back of the castle in Marinforest, the voice of the acari comes to mind.With that crying voice, the fairies call Tiararose and Aquastead alike.


    Tiara, where ~!?


    When you come out, I''ll grow you flowers of new confectionery ~!


    The acari and forest fairies, who aren''t usually with them, seem to share the same feelings now.I''m screaming the name of Tiararose out loud and searching the woods.


    After that, it''s Hartnites and Darrell.


    They''re both worried about Tiararose and Aquastead, looking for them.


    The acaris knew that Tiararose and Aquastead had gone to see the starry sky.Actually, the acari were looking at the Hartnites and the starry sky elsewhere.


    At that time, I definitely felt the magic of the sea along the way.I did it... because it''s a fairy star festival, and acari went through with it.


    In the morning, I had breakfast with the Tiararoses... and I realized they weren''t there.


    "Hah, hah... no, Tiara-sama..."


    "Darrell, don''t be so reckless.It will be difficult to walk because of the beast trail. "


    Hartnites cares about the breathtaking Darrell, but Darrell immediately shakes his head.


    "It''s okay because I''m used to the beast trail just because I don''t have the strength.I''m sure the least used to it is Tiara Onee-sama..... "


    Aquastead will be with you, but it''s possible that you''re still in trouble.No, it''s about Tiararose, so I''m sure he''s involved in some sort of a case.


    The acari running around in the mountains came back under the Hartnites and Darrell crying, "Nowhere to be found!"


    It seems Acari has come to the conclusion that he is not nearby because he can''t feel the signs.


    "I see....."


    Hartnites grips his fist and wonders what he''s up to.


    In the first place, it was caused by the magic of the Fairy King Pearl of the Sea who ran away for some reason.


    Hartnites, acari, and Darrell are good at magic.Rather, it would be enough to get into ten fingers in a country.


    Therefore, I knew in my head that Pearl''s magical runaway caused him to hit it and go somewhere else...


    But I was looking for it with all my hopes.


    "Dear Tiara-sama, where did you go?I''m sure it''s a fun maiden game. "


    "Wait a minute, Akari, aren''t you worried about the Tiaras?"


    Were you looking for Tiararose with a crying voice as an expression of your desire to go with you?


    From Hartnites, asking with a frustrating expression, Acari turns a blind eye for a moment.And he smiled and said, "That''s not true!".


    "... that''s a lie."


    That''s a lie.


    "Even Darrell!?"


    Acari was in shock with Gargan - well, there''s nothing we can do about it.


    "I wish I had checked last night more carefully...."


    A thick Filine murmurs the name of Tiararose against the wall.


    Because it was a star festival, Tiararose and Aquastead forgave it, and Philline was watching the stars with Elliot.


    That''s why I usually greet the sleeping Tiararose - yesterday I couldn''t.


    And in the morning, when I climbed the castle, there was no Tiararose or Aquastead.


    Feel that?


    "Ha! Excuse me, Lucia Rose.Master Tiararose and His Majesty Aquastead have been out for a little while, so let''s play with Philline now. "


    Ahhh


    Lucia Arrows nodded with a smile at Philline''s words.


    I wondered what a nice girl Philline was, but I prayed to Elliot, who went looking for the Tiararoses, to find her and come home soon.


    "You came to me on your own...."


    Looking at the person in front of him, Keith murmured with amazement.


    "Well, good work.This case is too big to do with human power alone. "


    It was Elliot who endured Keith''s sharp gaze while continuing to speak.


    I have determined that the power of the Fairy King is indispensable for a speedy resolution of this matter.It also depends on how we managed to get under the single Keith.


    But Keith sighs.


    "Well, I''d like to help you too... but this time it''s not my job.If I do something, Craig will kill me. "


    Dear Claire, is that it?


    It was Elliot who thought it might be the Pearl that caused it, but I remember that they were lovers.


    Certainly, even if it is a problem that needs to be solved immediately, from Craig''s point of view, it will not stand a chance of being solved by another man.


    Elliot would like to ask you to solve this as soon as possible, but the opponent is the Fairy King.If I''d just boarded this far, I wouldn''t be able to say a bad thing.


    Keith smiles at Elliot, who is looking at her face.


    "Well, don''t get so sick.Craig is a good fairy king in the sky, isn''t he? "


    And because it''s Pearl''s responsibility for what he did, he''ll be happy to take it on.So, Keith says it will be solved immediately.That''s why I''m not in a hurry.


    On the contrary, the person most anxious and worried...


    "Ahhh, why can''t you manipulate magic so well anymore!!"


    Pearl makes his voice rough at the summit behind the royal castle.


    Calm down. It''s okay.


    "There''s no way to calm down!Tiara was caught in a magical distortion because of the stray!? Where the hell did she go... "


    All I know is that I''m not in the Marine Forest.The blessed Pearl can see the signs if they''re in the Marine Forest.


    But now, I couldn''t feel it and was in a hurry.


    Craig thinks and speaks of the solution.


    "Pearl used magic, so it''s probably impossible to use magic on the same scale as before."


    "Oh no...."


    Pearl stares at Craig with a desperate expression.


    "But"


    "Whatever, it''s a solution, huh?"


    "If we use magic together, Pearl and I can cause another distortion.However, I think it will have some impact on the other side..... "


    It''s not a safety measure, but it''s the best I can think of right now, Claire says.


    "Mmm... that does make sense.Originally, Craig was more powerful than walrus. "


    "Yes, Pearl, you can leave everything to me."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Pearl glances at Craig with joy.


    "In the first place... no, it''s fine. I''m sorry, I need your help."


    Though she wanted to complain that the magic ran wild because of Craig, Pearl swallowed her words either way because of her immaturity.


    "Of course."


    ".... nh"


    Pearl takes Craig''s hand while dyeing her cheeks.A hand as big as a circle is not as soft as you... you know it''s a man''s hand.


    Unexpectedly, because of the embarrassment, Pearl''s hands move slightly.


    Hmm?


    "... nh, it''s nothing.I''m looking for the same distortion with the magic of my sea, so I want you to open it with the magic of the sky. "


    "Okay."


    Hearing Claire''s reply, Pearl takes a small, deep breath.Now you can still feel the magic distortion, but if you give me more time, it will disappear.


    --I can''t fail.


    Pearl concentrates, increasing her magic.Then, the sensed distortion is revealed and all the magic is poured into it to maintain it.


    This is the best pearl I''ve ever had.


    "Crail...!"


    "- Yeah, I''ll handle the rest, Pearl."


    Quietly responding, Craig attacked the distortion with the refined magic of the sky - connecting it to where Tiararose would be.


    However, adjusting the magic in this case is very difficult.Too strong or too weak, it affects the other side.


    But the magic tuning is Craig''s specialty.Keith somehow manages with power, and Pearl is not very good at deciding on the distribution of magic.


    "Now, come home... Tiararose, Aquastead..."


    The moment Craig groaned small, Pearl was so impressed that she squeezed her connected hand.You can see the grains of tears in the eyes.


    Oh, this can''t betray expectations.That''s what Craig thought, but in addition to what he thought... Pearl''s grip on his hand made him feel hot.


    So it was a little carelessness, and it''s not normally possible.In other words, the magic of Craig was released with joy... more than expected.


    Huh?


    Unexpectedly, she opened her mouth and Pearl was gloomy.


    "I''m sorry. No, but... it''s okay. Maybe because the sky on the other side just gets a little rough."


    "Wait, uhh..."


    I wanted to hold my head, but when I saw Honey Pink appearing in my vision, it blew up.

 178 13. Return

    Pearl was in front of Tiararose the moment he blinked at the glare of the shining rainbow.The rainbow that was hanging in the sky disappeared, but what was visible was the sky of the marine forest that I always saw.


    Then there was a great impact on the tear rose.


    "Ah, I''m so glad... you came back safely!!"


    Welcome back, both of you.


    Pearl! And Claire too.


    The Tiararose hangs on to the pearl that I hugged all of a sudden... but Aquastead immediately supported me.


    Tiararose and Aquastead look at each other and smile bitterly.Apparently, Pearl and Craig were very worried.


    "I''m sorry. I''m back, Pearl, Claire."


    "I''m glad to be back safely... because I let my magic run wild.I shouldn''t apologize. I''m sorry, Tiara, Aqua. "


    Tiararose shook his head to Pearl, who spoke honestly with an apology.


    It may have been Pearl, but there was a lovely encounter and experience beyond anything else.


    --If I could, I''d like to talk to you a little bit more.


    Thinking of Luca and Rio, I''m sure we''ll never see each other again, Tiararose feels nostalgic.


    I wanted to say hello to Elaine, but I couldn''t even see her after all.


    When you think about it, the moment of encounter and the time are very important.


    "I''m fine. Thank you for your concern, Pearl."


    "You''re too nice, Tiara.It''s because of the straw...Besides, it was the magic of the cradle sky that led the way for your pussy to return. "


    So Pearl tells me to just say thank you to Craig.As for Tiararose, I''d like to thank both of you because you were worried...


    Tiararose smiles and respects Pearl''s will.


    "Thank you for your help, Claire."


    "Thank you, Claire."


    "... I haven''t done anything like that.Either way, I couldn''t help it if Pearl didn''t find the distortion. "


    Crail looked so strong, but his feet slightly fluttered.


    "That...."


    "Hey, Craig!!"


    When Pearl hurried to support him, Crail smiled bitterly.


    "At the end, I seem to have used a little too much magic.Rest a little and you''ll recover. "


    "Not at all... tell me that right away!"


    "Ahahah, sorry Pearl. I just wanted to show you something nice."


    "~ ~ ~ ~!"


    Pearl dyes her face red in the words of Claire.If you don''t say such a shameful thing in public, I pinch your cheeks.


    Pearl, come on.


    "Hmm! Tiara, Aqua. The straw takes Craig back to the palace.We were all looking for you over there, so meet me back at the castle. "


    "Ah, yes, I see. Please take your time, Pearl, Claire."


    When Tiararose says so, Pearl becomes even more red to her ears.


    "Beh, it''s not like we''re going to slow down alone!I''ve used too much magic because of straw, so I''ll just let you rest in the palace!! "


    "Yes"


    Pearl objects, but Tiararose smiles happily.


    The smile seemed to reveal everything... Pearl was shy and almost crying as she moved on with her crane.


    So, speaking of which, Tiararose shook his head saying that the anomaly in the sky was no longer the magic of Crail''s interference - no, don''t think about it.


    "Tiararose Zaaaaa!!"


    When she returned to the royal castle, Philline hugged her with tears.I was more worried than I thought.


    After Pearl and Crail were transferred, the Tiararoses returned to the royal castle, joining the acaries wandering through the mountains.


    Acari told me to tell me more about what kind of event happened, but I had to see Lucia Arrows first, so I refused.But I''m sure they''ll attack us in the evening.


    "I''m sorry you''re worried, Philline.Me and Aqua are fine. "


    "Hai, I''m really glad you''re okay...."


    Wipe Philline''s tears with a handkerchief, and Tiararose smiles, "Thank you."


    In the corner of the room, Lucia Arrows was sleeping comfortably in a nap bed.Thanks to Philline''s care, Lucia Arrows was no longer anxious.


    According to Tiararose, Filine shook her head.


    "No, of course not. Lucia Rose is a very good boy."


    "Yes, when you have a baby, you''ll be a sister."


    "Ah, that''s right... somehow, it''ll grow up in no time..."


    I''m glad, but at the same time, when I''m lonely, Filine tries to lower her eyebrows-ha-ha.


    "Dear Tiararose, what do you look like..."


    "Ah"


    I laughed bitterly at Philline''s words.


    There is no problem with the knight clothes I borrowed over there, but dirt such as mud is very noticeable because I was in a thunderstorm.


    "I''m sorry, I didn''t notice...!I will prepare the bath immediately!! "


    Thank you, Philline.


    Tiararose smiled at Philline, who ran in a hurry.It looks like the tears I just had are completely gone.


    Tiararose goes to Lucia Rose''s side and peeks into her face.Small, cute hands on plump cheeks.Even though it was so small until recently, it has grown so big.


    I want to touch that cheek, but I haven''t removed the dirt yet, so I just put up with my adorable sleeping face.


    Speaking of which, I wonder if Aqua was okay.


    I told Elliot that I would take a bath and change my clothes after checking the current condition, but I wonder if I was able to meet him safely.


    I was headed to the office, so if it weren''t for me, I''d be here soon...


    Tiararose thinks about it and says, "Thank you for waiting!"Philline came back.That''s just a good maid and a quick job.


    "Thank you, Philline. And Aqua went to see Elliot... is he in the office?"


    "What? Elliot, you didn''t come back with Miss Tiararose?"


    "Huh?"


    Tiararose and Filine lean their necks together.


    I thought you were staying at the royal castle and proceeding with your work, but was that not the case?


    "Elliot went looking for the Tiararoses.That''s why I just came home with Mr. Tiararose and Mr. Acari.... "


    "Elliot wasn''t with the acaris, was he?"


    "Oh...."


    Maybe we''re still looking for the Tiararoses in the mountains.Tiararose said, "No! We need to find him right away." - Keith showed up before that.


    "Wow, Keith! Suddenly again, Elliot?"


    "Elliot!?"


    Keith and Elliot showed up together.


    Looks like you''re home safe, Tiara.


    "Yeah, yeah. Why would Keith do that with Elliot?"


    Tiararose thinks it''s a rare combination.


    "Ah, they came to me to find you.Elliot is better than I thought. "


    "Ahahah, thank you."


    "I''m back," says Elliot, illuminating Keith''s words.


    "I''m glad Master Tiararose is safe.What about Aquastead....? "


    Aqua went to the office looking for Elliot.


    "Eh, I''m on my way!!"


    Please.


    As Elliot rushed out, Philline held her head.It is difficult to judge whether it is solid or missing.


    "Anyway, it''s a mess....."


    "Ah... a thunderstorm hit me.I''m going to take a bath now. "


    "Don''t catch a cold. Come on in, fairies."


    Keith snips his finger and says, "Yes!The fairy of the forest showed up.He has a bottle of liquid with flowers in his hand.


    I''m going to turn the bath into flowers!


    "Eh!?"


    The forest fairy laughs and flies towards the bath at a glance.The speed is so fast that you can''t follow it with your eyes.


    "It''s a" flower bath "specially made by the forest.Come on, slow down. "


    "I''ll flush your back, Master Tiararose."


    "Keith, Philline... Thank you, I''ll let you grab it slowly."


    When Tiararose thanked him, Keith replied with just one word "oh," and disappeared in the transition.It seems that Tiararose took care to get some rest.


    "... you were in a hurry."


    "Yes, let''s take a bath, Master Tiararose."


    "Yeah."


    When I arrived in the bath, I was no longer a fairy.Looks like she left soon after taking a flower bath.


    You must have taken care of Tiararose so that she could rest slowly.


    When I took off my knight''s clothes and stepped into the bathroom, I was wrapped in the sweet scent of flowers.The fairy king of the forest only called it a flower bath, and it was a spectacular sight.


    In the light peach-colored smelly water, flowers float in place of the rising air, and disappear.Flowers bloom at the edge of the bathtub, and it seems to be spreading roots to the bottom to circulate hot water.


    "Wow...."


    This kind of bath can''t even be seen in a natural hot spring.


    When you put your fingertips on the hot water, the warmth of the tingling feels good.The temperature seems to be set slightly lower, and I think I can enjoy a long bath slowly.


    We have to get rid of the dirt before we get in!And Tiararose grabbed the soap.Then Philline''s voice can be heard from the dressing room.


    "Would you like to flush your back, Mr. Tiararose?"


    I wonder what to do with that voice.


    Sometimes I ask Philline when I''m tired, but I love to take my time alone.


    "Ah...."


    I noticed that my hair in my sight was dirtier than I thought.With mud bouncing everywhere, it may be difficult to wash it perfectly by yourself.


    Let''s sweeten Philline up here.


    "My hair is so dirty, can I ask you something?"


    "Of course, from the top of your head to the tip of your toes..."


    "Philline?"


    Philline stopped whispering that she could polish it.I wonder what happened. When I looked at the door leading to the dressing room, Aquastead, not Philline, stood.


    Ah, ahh?


    Let me wash Tiara''s hair.


    That said, an Aqua Steed with a towel wrapped around her waist came in.I didn''t stop it for a moment, and the Aqua Steed is still dirty.


    "Er... yes"


    Tiararose became red, but I had to nod.

 179 14. Long time no see pyjama party

    "Yeahhhh!? Was there such a great adventure!?"


    - Night.


    As a matter of fact, Acari brought Olivia to visit Tiararose.


    We dress ourselves in pajamas and talk about sweets spreading over the bed like a girls'' party one day.


    Lucia Rose, Aquastead is taking care of me.


    "That''s good, I wanted to go too!"


    "I''ll put it briefly, but it''s been hard... acari-sama"


    It''s not an interesting place to go, but I don''t think I can tell Akari.


    "I can''t believe there was such a place...!I wanted to go too!! "


    "Until Olivia...."


    Olivia Ariadel''s eyes are twitching.


    Strong eyes on glossy rose red hair stretching to the waist.I totally like the Date glasses I used for disguise and use them regularly.


    Daughter of the Duke of Ariadelle, there is another important role in this world.That means she''s the villain in the sequel to The Ring of Lapis Lazuli.


    But I''m not trying to do anything bad.She loves the world too much for this maiden game.


    I can''t count how honorable my nose bled and nearly bled to death.My hobby is the raw geek of the pilgrimage to the Holy Land.


    Olivia always thinks the world is very difficult to reach.


    "I''d love to go, too, but the fact that I need the help of the Fairy King... is that the hurdle is too high.I wonder if Levi can handle it. "


    "I''m not talking about borrowing help..."


    I just went to a different place due to a coincidence accident, and I didn''t ask you to go to a different place.


    Pearl and Craig didn''t even know where they were going.


    Olivia sighs "I''m sorry" at Tiararose''s words.


    "But I also agree to look around the world!Fairies, spirits, dwarfs.I think there''s something more mysterious in this world! "


    Acari is excited to imagine the unknown world.


    Certainly that sounds fun, and I think Tiararose would like to try traveling around the world someday.But there''s also a big problem.


    "We''re not in such an easy position to go out...."


    Tiararose is the queen of the Marine Forest and Acari is the princess of the kingdom of Lapis Lazuli.Olivia is not married, but there are many things she should do as a duchess.


    That''s right ~


    It''s an inconvenient identity ~


    Acari and Olivia nodded at the same time.


    "What, you ran away at night? You can''t do that either."


    "I wish I''d been banished at the end of the game..."


    "Hey, Akari, Olivia! Don''t even joke about it....."


    Where on earth is the royal family running away at night?


    And it''s too sad to be banished after the end.I mean, no matter what happens, Aquastead and Tiararose won''t let us banish them.


    Tiararose holds down her painful head and takes a small breath.


    "In the meantime, let''s put up with the trip now."


    "That''s right... I don''t even look at Marine Forest in every corner, so let''s start by filling up the nearby maps!"


    The acari grabbed his fist and said, "That''s it!"Olivia said too.


    "There was a kingdom of Gnomes and dwarves underground in the kingdom of Rapislazuli, right?Maybe there''s something underground in Marine Forest! "


    "Eh!?"


    In Olivia''s words, Tiararose and Acari were surprised.However, I cannot completely deny it because I did not investigate it.


    In the first place, the castle is also made underground as part of the game scenario.


    "I''ve been reading an old geography book lately.Maybe there''s a way down to the basement?Levi is looking into it. "


    Olivia, who is so motivated, knows the geography of Marine Forest better than anyone.


    Tiararose thinks Levi is really amazing, too.


    The story changed and became the subject of Tiararose''s second child.


    It''s magic again, isn''t it?What kind of child will you have next?Even if you look like Tiararose, or like His Majesty Aquastead, you can''t be more beautiful. "


    Olivia brightens her sparkling eyes and is delusional.


    "If I had a child, I''d sign up for an engagement! Dear Tiara, I''ll definitely get married in the future!"


    "Dear Akari, that''s rejected....."


    Or perhaps it''s the same rhetoric that Acari proposed to Tiararose.


    While laughing bitterly, tell them what Tiararose and Aquastead thought.


    "We want our children to have some freedom to fall in love.Of course, I''m not forgiving anything... "


    However, even if you make a mistake, you don''t force yourself to marry someone you don''t like.


    But that''s why no one is okay.It''s still royalty, so there are parts that you can never give up.It will mean whether you are an identity or can love your will and country.


    "It''s great to think about it...."


    "Dear Acari-sama....."


    "Ah, it''s okay. I love this world more than lapis lazuli!"


    The acari''s chest tightens when he marries Hartnites to protect the invincible part.


    --Akari-sama seems to be quite free.


    I''m sure the acari will be on the side of the children no matter what happens.Even if they say that they abandon their royal status and run off with someone they like, they will support them.


    I don''t think Tiararose can do that, so pure acari in a sense is very dazzling.


    "That said, we''re still talking about the future.It''s best to grow up healthy now. "


    "That''s right! Ahh, I can''t help but look forward to Lucia''s social debut...! I wonder if I can invent a video camera by then..."


    Olivia says tearfully that she wants to keep everything in order.


    After a short chat, the three of them lay down in bed before it was too late.I can''t let the Tiararose in my arms stay up late at night.


    I fell asleep imagining each baby being born.


    It''s healthy for both mother and child


    According to Darrell, Tiararose stroked her chest in relief.My baby''s magic is stable and growing fast.


    Tiararose''s stomach was getting bigger and it was about a month before the scheduled date.


    Darrell stays in the Marine Forest after the Fairy Star Festival to see how Tiararose is feeling.


    "Thank you, Darrell. It''s very pleasant."


    "No, Tiara, I''m glad I can help you."


    Darrell smiled and Aquastead, who was sitting next to Tiararose, smiled.


    "Tiara, onee-sama is my dear sister.I''ll show you how to protect the baby you''re born with! "


    I was touched by Darrell''s powerful words and wondered what a brother Tiararose was.


    It was the same with Lucia Arrows, but Darrell helped me many times.I can''t thank you enough.


    "Thank you, Darrell!"


    As Tiararose hugged her tightly, Darrell hugged her back happily.But soon, calmly talk about the future.


    "It''s not good to carry heavy things, but it''s not good not to exercise.Please take a walk in the garden with Aqua Oniisama.Then don''t inadvertently approach strangers.Maybe the magic is strong... and... "


    Darrell explains to Tiararose that he should be as careful as he can think of, such as taking caffeine or staying up late.


    "... you''re still a month away from giving birth.I wrote to your father and he replied that he would definitely go. "


    "Father..."


    Tiararose laughs bitterly at his busy work in Lapis Lazuli.But I know very well that you care about yourself and your grandson.


    Tiararose smiled, hoping to see him soon.


    At the end of the examination, the tea ladies are tea time alone.


    Relax with the gorgeous scent of flower tea.There are lots of sweets that I love, and I''m excited about where to start.


    When I got pregnant with Lucia Arrows, there was no problem with sweets, but this time I was able to spend nothing.Sometimes my body was sluggish and I didn''t have an appetite, but... sweets were a different belly.


    That was the only thing that thanked God.


    If you can eat the sweets, you can handle it for now.


    "Speaking of which, Darrell, is Darrell the same?I was worried about Undine the Spirit of Water. "


    "Hmm... no particular progress has been made.Besides, I''m still small, so I can do less on my own.Someday, I hope I can follow the Master''s trail. "


    But Darrell tells me there''s probably more to come.


    "The Spirit didn''t know we existed until recently...Until I met Master Salamander, I thought it was a hoax. "


    "Yes, I suppose it was no wonder there were spirits because there were fairies."


    That''s how Tiararose smiles.


    "We can use it if we know something.Darrell, please talk to me whenever you need anything.I will help you. "


    "Thank you, Sister Tiara!"


    Then I had a chat for a while and it opened up.

 180 15. Kings Colour

    "A-ah"


    Tiara?


    The moment I tried to bring breakfast to my mouth, Tiararose''s body stopped sharply.To be precise, the feeling of discomfort in my stomach prevented me from moving.


    It was about five days before the expected date of delivery, but it is not uncommon for it to shift.


    Immediately, Aquastead stood up to support Tiararose''s body.I know that children are not born soon.


    Start by gently lengthening your back so that Tiararose can calm down.


    "Elliot calls the doctor, Philline calls Darrell."


    Yes!


    "Immediately!"


    Aquastead slowly picked up the tear rose and left the room.The rooms for deliveries are already ready for use at any time.


    Mindful of the speed of walking, Aquastead hurried ahead of Talmo.


    Aquastead will also be present at this birth.


    The doctor told me that it was no good, but Tiararose accepted it and pressed it off.


    Grabbing the hands of Tiararose, who repeatedly breathes in a spicy manner, Aquastead says, "It''s okay."


    Tiararose smiled when she saw Aquastead''s face.


    "There are wrinkles between your eyebrows, Dad."


    "... I''m so nervous.I wish I could replace you with a little bit of tear. "


    I waited restlessly in the next room during the birth of my first child, but it was more restless to be together.


    When Tiararose speaks a little, his heart makes a loud and loud noise.


    "--ahh, uhh"


    Tiara!


    "Ha, ha, daijo, bu.I''m going to give birth to a healthy baby... right? "


    "... ahh"


    Aquastead holds back the hand of Tiararose and prays that he will be born safely.I''m sure that''s what Darrell and everyone else are waiting for in the next room.


    And then I lost so much - my vocality went up.


    Heeheheheh, heeheheh


    "I was born...!"


    "I see... ah, ah, uu..."


    However, the discomfort of Tiararose''s body did not disappear.And what I hear is, "One more!The doctor''s voice.


    At the same time as the tear rose went off, the vocal output rose again.


    Heeheheheheheheheheheheheh


    After giving birth to the two babies, Tiararose breathes heavily.I never imagined it was a twin, so I look at the baby and open my eyes.


    "Son of a man, two princes!!"


    The doctor''s voice boils indoors.


    This is the first prince to be born in Marine Forest.What should I do without rejoicing at this?Tiararose cried, but she woke up desperately.


    Tiara


    "... Aqua"


    Ask Aquastead to support your back and get the baby from the doctor.When you hold it, it conveys its softness and its living heartbeat.


    I''m just glad you were born safe.


    But such a quiet hour ended in an instant.


    The magic of the two babies swelled up.Probably because coming out of the womb altered the impact it was having.


    The doctor said, "Call Darrell!It would have been at the same time as shouting.


    Aqua Steed wrapped his wrist around his sleeve.


    "That''s...."


    The bracelet is something I''ve seen in Tiararose.


    The magical bracelet that Luca and Rio took over when we parted.They said they had a role to play in holding each magic.


    In his impatient thoughts, Tiararose concludes that he gave up his bracelet thinking of the baby to be born.


    This bracelet will hold the baby''s magic.Tiararose thanked the two and looked at the baby in her chest - breathing.


    Because the color of the gently open eyes was the color that Tiararose remembered.


    Glittering, odd-eye eyes.


    Blue and gold, like gems, are the same as Luca and Rio.


    "Put a moon bracelet on Stilka.Give Styrio the bracelet of the sun. "


    Aquastead named the baby and put a bracelet on its thin arm.Then the magic was quickly suppressed.


    Babies - Stilca and Stiglio are restlessly asleep.


    "That world... was the future."


    Then nod that you couldn''t tell us who you really are.Luca and Rio knew exactly what would happen to the future of the Tiararoses.


    Tiararose leans against the Aqua Steed and peeks into its expression.


    "Did Aqua know?"


    I wish you had told me, but Tiararose is a little stubborn.But Aquastead shakes his head.


    "Somehow, I thought so.I wasn''t so sure. "


    "... that''s right.But Luca and Rio knew about us... and they knew they needed these bracelets, and they entrusted them to us. "


    Tiararose laughs bitterly at what sons she had done before she was born.I can''t believe I''ve had more help from my newborn son.


    From now on, Tiararose must work hard to protect it.


    Good to see you, Luca, Rio.


    Tiararose sent a kiss to both cheeks.


    A lot of people came to see the princes who were born safely.


    "Ah, not for a while, except for someone who usually knows Tiararose!!"


    It is Philline who is sorting out the requests for visits.


    Never let anyone in the room be burdened by Tiararose, glaring.


    This visit is in a month''s time, and this one is in a month''s time... and he''s scheduling it so it won''t be a burden on Tiararose.


    "It''s amazing how a prince is born."


    "And I''m a twin."


    "Yeah."


    Watch a large flower cradle placed next to you as you slowly drink tea in bed.There, Stilca and Stiglio are sleeping comfortably.


    Just around the corner, Lucia Arrows is glad to see her younger brothers.Apparently my sister and brother are close.


    "Ha ~ Prince, so cute!I''m sure you''ll look handsome like Aqua in the future! "


    While the acari was in the room, she smiled and looked at Shtilka and Shtilio.


    Philline was given access to this room by the parents of Acari, Darrell, Olivia and Tiararose, among others.


    "Even if you are the son of Lord Tiararose and His Majesty Aquastead... ahhhhhh!!"


    Olivia squeezes her nose with a handkerchief as she bends forward.Stylica and Stylio are too respectful and have a nosebleed...!


    Philline, who saw it, said, "Ahhh!"she cried.


    "Olivia, don''t nosebleed in the presence of newborn princes!"


    "Ah, yeah, that''s right!Master Acari, I will leave the front once and for all!I''ll handle the rest! "


    "Olivia! I will do this task for Olivia!!"


    Olivia leaves with her nose held down, and Acari entrusted with her thoughts.Tiararose laughed bitterly at what task he was going to perform.


    "It''s so lively, Tiara-sama."


    "Yes, well... thanks to Darrell, I was born safe. Thank you."


    "No, Tiara, I''m glad your sister is well."


    It seems that Darrell was concerned about her postnatal condition, but it was generally good.I''m pretty tired, but I have an appetite, and I don''t feel sick.


    This is also due to Darrell''s support from day to day.Darrell studied a lot and looked at the nutritional aspects.


    And then I said a little bit, and Philline said, "Why don''t you take a break?It was proposed and dissolved.


    I drank the Louis Botea that Philline put me in and took a breath.


    And furthermore, you may be angry if you say that it''s always noisy... but you realize that there are no three fairy kings.


    "Aqua, I wonder if Keith is here."


    It''s about to fly.


    "Oh, they said they were coming at night.I heard that you were having twins, and they thought Tiara would get tired if she went right away. "


    That''s right.


    Then you''d better stay up for a little bit till night.


    Tiararose put the teacup on the side table and Aqua Steed immediately put a towel on it.


    "I''ll always be next to you, so get some rest."


    "Yes"


    As Tiararose lay down, Aquastead held the luscious Rose and put her to bed with her.


    Lucia, it''s time for a nap.


    "Rest well and recover quickly.Good night, Tiara, Lucia. "


    Aquastead said so and kissed Tiararose and Lucia Rose''s forehead.


    "Blessed be the Fairy King of the Forest!"


    As soon as I moved into the room, Keith blessed Stylica and Stylio.When I saw Craig smiling in the back, I guess I decided the order.


    "Blessed be the straw and the clay."


    That''s right.


    Pearl and Claire also blessed Stylica and Stylio.


    In other words, the twins received blessings from the three fairy kings.


    "Even though the magic is strong, the Blessing of the Fairy King...."


    Certainly, Tiararose laughs bitterly when she nods to become the strongest class in the class.I''m sure they''ll face the sky anomaly the Tiararoses experienced and gain power there.


    --It takes a long time to get there.


    But now Tiararose and Aquastead don''t have enough power to give them starry sky blessings.


    Probably too much power to celebrate the two of us in the future.I can''t predict how long it will take for someone to bless me again.


    --We have no choice but to entrust our future to us in the past.


    I thought it came from an unexpected accident, but it seems to be connected in many places around the world.


    Claire moves by the window and opens the curtains.


    The sun fell completely and it was late at night.The sky is filled with heavenly stars, as if they were celebrating the birth of Stilca and Stiglio.


    The wind comes in at night and feels good on your skin.


    Aquastead, who was sitting by the bed, said, "What''s going on?"and called out to Craig, who turned his gaze to the night sky.


    Keith said, "Moonlight?" Pearl laughs and wonders.


    "This is the third time I''ve seen this sky."


    ¡­¡­


    Tiararose listens to Craig.Sky Fairy King Crail lives long years.Because he is a fairy named after the sky, he must have seen thousands of skies.


    Claire leans against the edge of the window and looks at us.


    It''s the same starry sky that Aquastead was born on.


    Who could have understood the meaning of the words?


    Tiararose rebelled in his brain to think about what it meant, and Keith remembered something that said, "Ah... that''s exactly the same."Pearl shows in his attitude that he has never seen this sky before but knows what it means.


    "Is the next king a twin?"


    That''s what Keith said and laughed.

 181 1. Busy daily routine

    A new green forest with a clear sky high, a sea of deep and brightly colored fish swimming, and rich fruits.The Marine Forest is a beautiful country where the Starry Sky King and three Fairy Kings are watching.


    Next to the country - Queen Tiara Rose, who was married from the Lapis Lazuli Kingdom, spends a fulfilling day at work raising her children.


    It has been three years since such a tiara rose gave birth to the second and third twin princes.


    Now I''m looking at the sweet catalogue in my room at the Imperial Castle, and I''m bothering my head if it''s not like this.Confectionery is an important source of nutrition for Tiara Rose.


    Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest.


    She is the queen of this country and the daughter of the villain of the maiden game "Lapis Lazuli Ring".And now she''s the mother of three children.


    Honey pink fluffy hair and clear light blue eyes.A sweet and gentle smile could be called the Virgin.


    And the three children - Lucia Rose, Shtilka, and Shtilio - had a friendly nap.


    It was a sleeping Lucia Rose, but she put a blanket on the beat of a "nnhh" turn.


    When she noticed the voice, Tiara Rose raised her face from the catalog and went underneath the pretty girls.


    Put the blanket back on and gently stroke her forehead.When I want to see you sleeping in a pleasant way all the time, I think about such a familiar thing.


    There''s one person who looks at Tiara Rose and her children.


    "Ahhh, it''s so lovely today!"


    Olivia was staring at him with an enchanted expression.


    I''m putting my hands together in front of my chest and trying to burn this sight into my head for the rest of my life.Hurry up, hurry up, we have to develop the camera... while we think about it.


    Then I take my handkerchief out of my dress pocket and put it on my nose.The handkerchief oozed with blood in an instant.


    Beautiful sight, Master Tiara Rose!


    Olivia-sama... I thought my nose wasn''t bleeding anymore.


    "Non! It''s worth the training and I can''t usually get out, but if I feel noble, it will overflow...!"


    While smiling bitterly at Olivia''s words, Tiara Rose returned to her seat, certainly because her nosebleeds were more calm than before.


    Olivia Ariadel, the villainous daughter of a sequel who loves this world too much.


    Philine is on maternity leave and now serves as an occasional tiara rose maid.He said, "I''m so happy to be able to take care of senpai! It seems that."


    She was a maid, but there was also a strange composition of butler Levi.


    Olivia''s butler, Levi.


    Well-appointed black hair and rose-red eyes of the same color as Olivia''s hair.Dressed in butler clothes, standing is always graceful.


    Above all else, think about Olivia first - no, just Olivia.


    After enjoying the children''s faces for a while, Olivia has a good time.


    "That''s right!" Mr. Tiara Rose, the design of the store has been completed. ¡±


    Thank you, Olivia.


    Tiara Rose places the catalogue on the table and receives the drawings from Olivia.A shop''s blueprint and exterior and interior design were depicted.


    The red brick building is cute but quite spacious in appearance.The first floor part has a table with fifty seats, and the second floor has five private rooms.


    I really thought it would be a more compact construction... but it was definitely a big procession, so I prepared a lot of space.


    --This is "Fairy Sugar Confectionery."


    This is a sweet shop produced and made by Tiara Rose.


    The shop is designed to be used by nobles, ordinary people, and people without distinction.The prices range from reasonable to sweet courses.


    The first floor is a restaurant where anyone can easily come and eat sweets, and the private rooms on the second floor are for the nobility.


    It''s such a cute design!


    ¡°Huh! The second floor is a fully booked private room that we can use for tea parties.¡±


    Olivia nodded excitedly as she looked at the blueprint.


    Until now, I wanted to create a sweets store, but I was too busy with work and raising children to be able to carry it out.


    Now, Filine''s younger brother, Alan, is thriving in the Marine Forest with the "Flower Sugar No. 2" sweet shop for the common people.


    - When it''s done, we need to invite Alan.


    And Tiara Rose thought it would be nice if the circle of sweets were to spread more and more.


    That way, the annual Sweets Games will be even more exciting.The Sweets Games are quite popular, and there are more tourists from other countries.


    Well, let''s have a cup of tea.


    That''s right.


    Tiara Rose nodded to Olivia''s voice, and Levi was already preparing tea.Apparently, this butler is previewing his master''s actions.


    Tiara Rose relaxes her shoulders and turns her neck in the light of the fragrance of the tea leaves.It seems that the documents and other things were checked a lot, so it became quite elaborate.


    "Phew..."


    As Tiara Rose took a breath, Olivia turned around and massaged her shoulders.It feels very pleasant just in the refined part.


    Thank you for your hard work.


    "Thank you, Olivia."


    I''m already exquisite!


    "Oh, there it is."


    Tiara Rose screamed as Olivia grabbed her shoulders."I didn''t think I was using my shoulder so hard that it hurt so much...!"


    Today, I think Tiara Rose needs to take a bath slowly and go to sleep early.


    "Please don''t hesitate to tell me, I will always massage you!"


    Yes.


    Olivia was full of motivation, and Tiara Rose nodded with a smile.


    At first, Olivia was surprised when she said that Filine would be her maid while she was on maternity leave, but now she''s having fun every day.


    --I ''ve had occasional nosebleeds...


    "That''s right, wouldn''t it be nice to have a hot spring that works on your shoulder...?!"


    "Olivia, that''s a good idea!"


    "Hey, what are you talking about? Both of you!"


    When Olivia says something, Levi affirms it all, and Tiara Rose alone is in serious trouble.


    Levi might even dig a hot spring!


    ¡°It''s okay! Tiara, you just have to wait for the hot springs to dig up without worrying about anything.¡±


    "Definitely not!"


    As Tiara Rose shook her head and denied it, Aquastide came into the room and said, "You''re having a good time."


    Apparently, our work for today has come a long way.


    I''m home, Tiara.


    Aqua, thank you for your hard work.


    As Tiara Rose greets Aquastide, she gently kisses her temples.Olivia and the others are there, so I''m a little embarrassed, but I''m glad.


    The Aquastide Marine Forest takes care of my wife and children''s time.


    Dark blue hair and gentle golden eyes.Tiara Rose is still thrilled with her tidy face.


    As the king of the Marine Forest, and as the king of the starry sky, he is the most important person who protects this land and the Tiara Roses.


    "Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty Aquastide."


    ¡°Yeah. Was there anything unusual?¡±


    ¡°It''s always the same. However, since Tiara Rose-sama''s stiff shoulders are terrible, I would definitely like to have a massage later....."


    Olivia-sama!


    Tiara Rose is in a hurry to tell Aquastide what to do.It''s decided to give you a very happy massage.


    Moreover, it didn''t end there, and if it was definitely tickled, Tiara Rose''s face would turn red.


    I''m sure Tiara Rose hasn''t imagined that Olivia would think, "It''s a treat."


    Looking at the state of Tiara Rose, Aquastide deepened his smile.


    "It''s my job to keep my wife busy with work and parenting."


    "Fufu, it''s time for the couple, and we''ll be down soon." Excuse me. "


    "Oh, thank you."


    Olivia and Levi bowed gracefully and walked out.


    It was like a storm, and Tiara Rose held back her hot cheeks.


    Olivia is polite and elegant, but there''s also something weird about her.


    For that matter... I''m sure you''ll make time for me to slow down like this.


    Aquastide went underneath the sleeping children and sat down on the bed.


    You''re sleeping soundly, aren''t you?


    Lucia was full of energy and played around.


    Tiara Rose smiles, wondering if she''s tired.I''ve been running around lately, especially around Talmo, if I''m free.


    Shtilka and Shtilio are also three years old, so it''s cute to try to follow them after Lucia Rose.


    Then Aquastide gestured to Tiara Rose.


    Aqua?


    When the Tiara Rose sits next to her, Aquastide shakes her hand.Aquastide leaned his neck to see what was going on, and Aquastide clasped his cheek in his hand.


    If I can, I''d like to walk after Tiara.


    At times, Aquastide is too busy to spend time with Tiara Rose.


    That''s why I seem to envy the children a little.


    Tiara Rose smiles as she imagines a chick-like husband walking behind her, with a somewhat cute attitude.


    Aqua...


    ¡±I usually endure this as well.¡±


    That''s why it''s good to say it with your mouth.


    But when I say that, I feel the same way about Tiara Rose.I think I''d like to spend the whole day with the kids to see what Aquastide is all about.


    I want to tell my children that my dad is doing his best.


    But I''m sure the kids will grow up and chase Aqua''s back soon.


    Because I''m a mother, I know somehow.


    ¡°When we''re done in Tiara, we''ll make some time for everyone to eat.¡±


    Yes!


    Tiara Rose smiled happily as she hugged Aquastide as she approached.

 182 2. Lazy Tea Time

    "Mother, look!"


    "Kwah! Lucia, what are you doing!!"


    Seeing her daughter happily calling out to her, Tiara Rose was surprised that her jaw was not coming off!?


    Lucia Rose was climbing the garden tree.Under the trees, Tarumo watches flustered.


    Behind him, Olivia said, ¡°You''re too genius!"My eyes are shining."


    Lucia Rose Marine Forest, a princess who plays in the garden every day.


    The first child of Tiara Rose and Aquastide, the first princess of the Marine Forest.


    His golden honey pink eyes are patchy, and his dark pink hair is on both sides.


    Within it is the magic power of the Spirit Salamander, and the magic talent of the fire system.However, since Lucia Rose was still small, she rarely used magic from herself.


    Lucia Rose, who is five years old, is already running around the garden every day.In Japan, I would be about the age of a kindergartener.


    Sometimes he watches the knights closely, and Lucia Rose says, "Be a knight!That''s the mantra these days.She wants to protect her mom and dad.


    --I ''m very happy to protect you, but...


    Please don''t just play around with me, Tiara Rose.


    Daiyabu, Lucia is a knight!


    A daughter stands on a tree and tells her with a crisp face, somewhere proud.


    I''m sure that athletic nerve will give in to Aquastide.Even if I make a mistake, Tiara Rose thinks she can''t climb such a fast tree.


    Then, a third voice said, "Kee! Lucia Rose-!?"


    Tiara Rose turned towards her voice, and Filine''s face turned blue.He holds his eldest son, Cristore, in his arms.


    "When I see Filine''s reaction, it''s kind of calming down..."


    "Master Tiara Rose, I don''t think that''s what you''re talking about...!"


    But instead of Filine in a hurry, Lucia Rose said, "Filine!Chris! "he smiled happily and jumped from the tree.


    "~ ~ ~!?"


    "--Oh!"


    This time it was Tiara Rose who screamed silently, but Tarumo caught Lucia Rose at the end of the line.


    ¡±Hah... I thought my heart would stop.¡±


    "Really... I don''t know what would have happened if it hadn''t been for Talmo..."


    Tiara Rose and Filine''s heart are making a dumb, dumb sound.


    However, the person himself, Lucia Rose, is in a state of disorientation, so he may not be aware of his parents'' concerns at all.


    It was Filine Coralucia who sat down on the ground from relief.


    Her beautiful yellow-green hair and sepia eyes.A solid woman who has been a maid of Tiara Rose for a long time.


    He is now the wife of Elliot, Aquastide''s closest friend, and between them is his two-year-old eldest son, Kristore, a one-year-old eldest daughter, Finn, and a newborn second daughter, Elene.


    Cristore Coralucia, the eldest son of the Coralucia family.


    Sara-sara''s light yellow-green hair is inherited by Filine, and her moist deep blue eyes resemble Elliot''s.


    Elliot seems to want to be close to Shtirka and Shtirio, but since he''s a lazy personality, Philine seems to be worried about such a big role.


    "Are you okay, Philine? You surprised Chris too."


    Thank you very much.


    Tiara Rose wakes up with a helping hand to Filine, who has sat down, and smiles at Lucia Rose as she runs around cheerfully.


    Lucia Rose came to Cristore, pinched the hem of her dress and lovingly bowed.


    I have a teenager, but I also have Tiara Rose education, so I am well mannered.


    "Welcome! Filine, Chris!"


    Greetings, Lucia Rose.


    "... hello"


    When Filine greeted her with a smile, Kristore also greeted her, but quickly hid behind her.


    Maybe I was more surprised by the Lucia Rose that jumped from the tree than I thought.


    But Lucia Rose took the hand of such a Cristore and said, "Let''s play!¡±He smiled happily.


    "... yes..."


    Cristor nodded and came out from behind Filine.Holding hands with Lucia Rose, I sat down on the grass.


    Seeing what Tiara Rose would do to play, I wonder if the stuffed animals would walk towards us.


    "Oh......"


    Is it Lucia Rose''s stuffed animal?


    I saw Chris and he moved out of the room to play with us.


    Lucia Rose rarely used her magic power, except when it came to moving stuffed animals.


    I feel like I''m a friend of the playmate, and I move it every now and then.


    I have asked how Tiara Rose moves before, but it is a bit of a surprise to be explained and understood as "Come here ~".


    Plush toy ~!


    Kristore looks puffy and happy, walking toward the stuffed animal.It seems that Lucia Rose is holding hands with oneesan.


    Haaa, it''s cute!


    Olivia, who had been watching for so long, was out of breath.My nose is not bleeding, but it may be dangerous.


    We''re playing with stuffed animals, so we''ll have a cup of tea.


    "Yeah, let''s do that, Levi!"


    Hah, already!


    As Tiara Rose suggested, Levi had already finished setting up the tea party.


    When did you prepare everything from sandwiches and snacks to cakes?No, it''s no use thinking about him.


    So it''s time for a relaxing tea time for adults.


    Filine relaxed her shoulders as she watched Crystore play with Lucia Rose.Sometimes I''m in the middle of raising a child, and the color of fatigue is on my face.


    "Now that we''re all here, take your time, Philine."


    "Thank you, Master Tiara Rose." I thought I knew it when I was with Master Lucia Rose, but raising children is so difficult.... of course, there are a lot of happy things. "


    Filine laughs as if she hasn''t gotten used to it yet.


    Olivia-sama, thank you for being my maid instead of me.


    ¡°No, Filine thinks of herself first because she has a very fulfilling and enjoyable day.¡±


    Yes.


    At first, for a short period of time, Olivia, the princess of the Duke''s house, had to take her place!I thought it was Philine, but now I''m completely used to it.


    Because Olivia is very tense towards Tiara Rose, Aquastide, and their children.In addition, Levi was there, so he had no problems with his basic work.


    Filine took a sip of her tea and started talking about it.


    ¡°Alan said he was coming soon.¡±


    Well, Alan?


    "I couldn''t help but notice the sweet shop" "Fairy Sugar Sweets" "made by Tiara Rose."To that celebration, "


    ¡°I''m so glad. I was going to send you an invitation.¡±


    Tiara Rose''s cheeks are loose when she comes from Alan.


    It''s more than usual to greet them with an extraordinary sweet full course.


    Not only aristocratic sweets, but also ordinary sweets, for which Alan is the main business, I want you to eat something new.


    - Oh, there''s so much to do!


    Tiara Rose, you can''t do this.


    And of course!


    After all, I was wondering if I should increase the menu a little bit, which is not very nice in front of Filine, who is putting pressure with a smile on her face, but I can''t talk about it.


    "It''s okay, I''m taking a good rest."Otherwise, Olivia will say to Aqua. "


    "Of course! You will have a sweet punishment!!"


    Well, that''s good.


    "Both of you, already..."


    Dancing on the palms of the maids... that''s how I felt about Tiara Rose.


    Afternoon. We''re going to the reception room today because we''re working with Aquastide.


    By the way, it''s been a long time since Tiara met me.


    "Is it a few months ago that I met you?"


    However, Tiara Rose tilts her head, whatever it is she wants to do.I haven''t had any particular problems lately, so I didn''t have much time to talk about it.


    Upon entering the arrival reception room, there was a promised person.


    "I''m sorry to keep you waiting, Miss Ishira."


    "It''s been a long time, Ishira-sama."


    I''m sorry to hear that.


    ¡°Thank you for your time,¡± Ishira said slowly and thankfully.


    Isila Pearlrant, the heroine of the beloved sequel to the sea.


    Pale light blue hair and orange eyes.A woman with thin lines, she has enough mobility and strength to swim for hours in the ocean.


    Blessed by the fairy of the sea, it manages the sea in the marine forest.


    She sat down and waited for the maid to finish her tea, before Ishira opened her mouth.


    "Again... thank you for taking the time today."


    ¡°Is there a problem?¡±


    "No. Today, it''s... me..."


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide looked at Ishira in dismay.


    "...... I will be married. Today, we will report to you."


    "Happy birthday!"


    Congratulations, Ishira-sama.


    All of a sudden I was very surprised, but both Tiara Rose and Aquastide immediately sent blessings.


    But at the same time, in Tiara Rose''s head, she said, "Who?''is filled with words.Certainly, the target of the sequel was -, and the name of the opponent rose from Ishira''s mouth.


    "... I''m marrying Kyle."


    Ishira''s cheeks were stained with pink and she looked happy.


    I''ve been thinking about Aquastide for a long time, and it''s taken her a long time to get here, but I think Aquastide is glad she reported it with a smile on her face.


    ¨D ¨D Kyle was Aishira-sama''s butler and one of the characters targeted.


    Kyle has always stood by Ishira''s side, growing love little by little.


    If there is a problem, then Kyle is not an aristocrat...


    I don''t know because Tiara Rose doesn''t play the sequel, but it''s easy to imagine that it''s a pretty tough journey.


    What did the Duke of Pearl Lanto say?


    Aquastide''s question made Tiara Rose shudder.


    I''m curious whether the harsh duke allows the two of them to marry.I was anxious for a moment, no matter what I was told to do when I ran off.


    Ishira replied with a bitter smile, ¡°I have forgiven you.¡±


    "Of course, it was hard to convince my father..."But Kyle has been watching over me and helping me. ¡±


    Ishira tells me that the Duke of Pearl-Lant was somehow as cute as Kyle''s son.


    "At first, ''Don''t be a fool!''"I was yelled at..."


    ¡±That was... very difficult.¡±


    "I''m glad you two were recognized."


    Thank you very much.


    Ishira looks at Aquastide with a refreshing look on her face.


    I''m sure that I''ve settled my thoughts with Ishira.Ishira had a sunny face and left the reception room.

 183 3. Fairy Sugar Confectionery Open!

    Soon, the opening day of Tiara Rose''s shop, Fairy Sugar Confectionery, came.


    Tiara Rose left the children to Aquastide and came to the store with Olivia and Levy.


    It opens at 11 o''clock, so it opens in about an hour.


    "Wow, it smells good."


    The inside of the store is full of the smell of sweet treats, and you can feel happy just by staying there.


    Baked goods such as cookies and Madeleines are also available, as well as Tiara Rose''s newest cake, ice cream, and parfait.


    There are several kinds of sandwiches and galettes for snacks that are not sweet.


    This makes it relatively easy for men who don''t like sweet things to get in.


    A woman in a cock hat comes and bows.In his hand, he has a tray with freshly made cakes and cream puffs.


    "Chef! Thank you, I think it''s very nicely finished."


    "I''m glad you like it.Every sweets is made with enthusiasm. ¡±


    You can see the sweets on the tray without having to listen to the chef.Of course it looks good, but it has been tried and tested for today, from ingredient selection to cooking methods.


    - There''s no way it''s not delicious!


    I think Tiara Rose wants a lot of people to eat soon.


    The chef smiled happily at the glittering tiara rose.


    Dear Tiara Rose, we have prepared a sweet set for today.


    "I see... we have a little time before opening, so let''s do it."


    Thinking that even a look around the kitchen and store would get in the way, Tiara Rose decided to go to the reception room with Olivia and the others to get the treats that are on sale today.


    "Nhhhh, this is too delicious!"


    Olivia, who ate a bite of the cake, was about to melt with its deliciousness.I think I can eat as much as I want.


    I thought it was worth it.


    Tiara Rose also eats the cake and tongues at its delicious taste.Although it is a cake I thought of myself, it is made by the chef, so it is tastier and more powerful than the original.


    --I ''m so happy to have my own sweet shop...


    For Tiara Rose, who loved sweet things from her previous life, the situation was like a dream.


    If things go well here, it won''t be a dream to increase the number two and number three stores.In addition, they may be able to advance to other countries and preach the beauty of sweets.


    Tiara Rose''s dreams are spreading.


    ¡±But it''s a little distracting to just leave the children and eat my sweets...¡±


    "Fufu, Master Lucia Rose loves sweets, right?"


    That''s right.


    In Olivia''s words, Tiara Rose smiles as she imagines Lucia Rose.I''m sure it will inflate your cheeks by saying, "That''s sloppy!"


    Ask the chef to prepare a souvenir for you.


    When I finished eating the sweets, it was just the right time.


    We''re almost there.


    Tiara, please prepare for the first greeting.


    ¡°Yes, and before we do that, we need to clear this place out.¡±


    Today is an open day and all staff are busy.


    Tiara Rose grabbed a towel and used the magic of water to clean the table.


    "...... Senpai Tiara Rose''s magic! Nice!!"


    "This is brilliant... but isn''t Master Tiara Rose really good at magic?"


    Did something happen while Levy was hitting Olivia''s nose with a handkerchief?


    Actually, magic is getting easier to use these days.


    "That''s not true...! If I practice desperately, I''ll be able to use magic."


    In the words of Tiara Rose, Olivia, who can''t use any magic, is trying to find hope.


    "I hear that magic doesn''t grow very much when you grow up... well, Master Tiara Rose has received blessings from the Fairy King, so is it special?"


    "Levi, it''s like I''m telling you I can''t use magic..."


    ¡°I''ll protect Olivia, so if you can''t use your magic, that''s fine.¡±


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    No, Olivia looked at Tiara Rose with a subtle face that seemed to say so.


    "But I''m a little worried if you don''t know why."Of course, I''d be happy if I just grew up. ¡±


    "I see... I don''t feel weird at the moment, so I think it''s okay."


    Since children''s magic problems have plagued them in childbirth, Tiara Rose thinks that such a thing is one of the causes...


    "Come on, it''s opening time." Let''s go. "


    Yes!


    The woods and fairy-inspired interior is very cute, and the star chandelier gently illuminates the ceiling.


    The staff''s uniforms are well-aligned and in a calm shade based on sepia.


    When it was opening time, a large number of customers entered the store.


    Today''s first day is full of bookings, and for a while the bookers are all alone.Only takeout can be purchased without making an appointment.


    Tiara Rose sneaks in from the back and watches the guests arrive at their seats.As expected, I''d be surprised if I greeted you from the beginning.


    You''re very popular, Mr. Tiara Rose.


    ¡°Yes, I have up to three months ahead of me.¡±


    I thought it would be okay because I made it into a fairly large store, but the influence of Tiara Rose was more than twice what I thought.


    Fully booked for a while, first-time customers are preferred.


    When all the customers arrived, the staff called for Tiara Rose.


    "Lady Tiara Rose, please come this way." Please say hello. ¡±


    Yeah.


    On the first day of the opening, the visitor sees the daughter-in-law of an aristocrat in the general seat.Tiara Rose smiled at me several times with her face.


    And if you look closely, Alan is among them.I sent you an invitation, but it looks like you booked a meal for me.


    When the tiara rose comes forward, a round of applause occurs.


    Everyone, thank you for coming to the [Fairy Sugar Confectionery] today.


    When I look around the store, everyone looks excited.I guess that''s what I was looking forward to at Tiara Rose''s sweet shop.


    Here, Tiara Rose also acts as a cake made at a sweets tournament before, so there will be many people and pastry chefs who are looking for it.


    "Since I married Marine Forest, there have been a lot more confectionery shops.Sweets competitions have been held, and the country''s confectionery technology is constantly advancing.However, many confectionery ingredients are still expensive, and it can be difficult to make them. ¡±


    As expected, it is difficult to solve this problem quickly, but Tiara Rose thinks that technological advances will make it possible to supply cheaper items such as honey.


    It still takes a long time, but there is a lot of hope because I like sweets so much.


    "...... I won''t be able to enjoy the sweets for much longer."Please enjoy it to your heart''s content. "


    When Tiara Rose finishes greeting her, the chef will be the next to explain the sweets.But it wasn''t the same person who showed up.


    "Congratulations on opening the sweet shop, Tiara Rose"


    Aqua-Steed, Your Majesty!


    Aquastide, with a bouquet of dark blue roses, walked happily under the Tiara Rose.


    It seemed to be written on his face that he was a big success.In the corner of the shop, Olivia looks at us with pleasure.


    It was so sudden that Tiara Rose couldn''t hide her agitation.


    --Alas, I almost called you Aqua as usual...!


    Aquastide tries to quell the throbbing heart, but he doesn''t let it.


    I came to the side and was smiled at.


    ¡°I''ve been looking forward to opening it, too.¡±


    "Ah... thank you."


    When Tiara Rose dyed her cheeks and received the blue rose, a bigger round of applause occurred earlier.


    "I didn''t hear you were here...!"


    Transferring the location from the store to the reception room, Tiara Rose suddenly approaches Aquastide.


    I was so happy that I thought I was going to be in a terrible state.


    But Aquastide just laughs happily at the sight of such a tiara rose.


    ¡°I also wanted to celebrate Tiara''s shop.¡±


    Saying that, I gently kissed Tiara Rose''s temple.


    Was it no good?


    "...... the way you listen to me is sloppy."


    I''m glad Aquastide is here.


    Tiara leans back on her shoulders and leans back in spite of the Aquastide sitting next to her.Then, the aroma of the rose I received earlier smelled.


    "Aqua smells really good."


    "Really? Tiara... smells like sweets."It looks delicious and I want to eat it. "


    "......!"


    Aquastide giggles and kisses her like she''s eating Tiara Rose''s lips.For Aquastide, Tiara Rose is sweeter than any sugar confection.


    "Nh... I''m not a treat, am I?"I thought I''d be eaten. ¡±


    ¡°I''m sorry, I''m so obsessed with Tiara.¡±


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Aquastide''s straightforward words, Tiara Rose hides her face with her hands.I don''t get used to this sweet dialogue, no matter how many times I hear it all the time.


    - I''m glad, but I''m still embarrassed!


    But I can''t tell you that I want to stop, so I''m in trouble.


    A knock echoed in the room, and Olivia, who was checking on the store, arrived.Next to it is Alan.


    "The store is doing well, Mr. Tiara Rose."And since Alan offered to say hello, I wanted to let you know. ¡±


    Your Majesty, Aquastide, Tiara Rose.


    "Welcome to Marine Forest"


    "Master Alan! I was going to come and say hello later..."


    Alan shakes his head as Tiara Rose stands up in a hurry and asks the Queen of the land to come and say hello.


    Alan Sanfist, who has become more masculine lately.


    Filine''s brother, the eldest son of the Sanfist family.


    He runs Flower Sugar, a sweet shop in the Marine Forest, and his performance is up on his right shoulder.It is also a very popular confectionery brand in the Marine Forest.


    "I sent you an invitation, but I was surprised you were here."


    "I was also thinking of surprising Master Tiara Rose.... well, Lord Aquastide didn''t have any enemies. "


    Alan laughs when he remembers what happened earlier.Speaking of Tiara Rose, I remembered the surprise and my face became red again.


    "The new sweets, they were all really delicious!The oyster cake is particularly delicious, and the marine forest oyster is still the best.I also want to buy lapis lazuli, but it''s still raw, so the freshness is difficult... maybe it''s better if it''s jam, but there''s still nothing against raw lazuli...! "


    Tiara Rose nods desperately to Alan''s ardent desire to make a delicious cake.


    I know, I know!


    Unlike today, the means of transportation in this world are horses - that is, horse-drawn carriages.


    So it is difficult to carry the ingredients fresh.Delicate fruits, such as koji, cannot be ordered from afar, as transportation is almost always at room temperature.


    Although there are magic items like refrigerators, they can only be sold nearby due to the long travel time.


    ¡°We still need an environment where we can produce in many places.Of course I make it, but the flavor fluctuates depending on the place..... "


    It''s quite difficult, but Alan has a head.


    "Then why not create a ''brand'' for each region?"I''ll give it a name after the village. "


    "That''s good!" In that case, it will become a specialty of each village, and it will also become an attachment.That''s right, Master Tiara Rose! "


    Alan is excited to take notes saying he can''t do this.


    Someday, I''d like to hold not only sweets, but also a brand tournament of koji.


    "That''s so nice!"


    Tiara Rose is impressed by the very attractive proposal.Even though it''s fun to compare the tastes of the mackerel, how many wonderful mackerel will be gathered when the tournament is held...


    There will be more and more varieties, and local characteristics will emerge.


    "--- I''m sorry to keep talking to you.After all, when I talked about sweets, I couldn''t stop. "


    Alan-sama...


    Tiara Rose and Alan laughing together, but Aquastide, Olivia, and Levi seemed to look just like each other... and smiled bitterly.

 184 4. Aquastides Magic Power

    The sweet shop "Fairy''s Sugar Confectionery" is also safely on track and spends a peaceful day...... I thought it would be nice to be greeted by the knight of Lucia Rose and send a hard day to the plain.


    "Ahhhh ~ it''s already cumbersome"


    Tiara Rose took a deep breath as she dived to the side where Shtilka and Shtilio slept.


    Until now, I''ve been hanging out with Lucia Rose and playing as a knight.


    "Good job, Tiara."


    "Aqua..." Both Aqua and the Knights are amazing.I just moved a little, and I got a little stiff. ¡±


    I don''t feel like I can keep up with Lucia Rose''s health, even though she''s stretching and wearing a little muscle.


    Perhaps because of the shaking of the tiara rose diving into the bed, I heard a sleepy voice from next to me saying "nhhh?"


    Luca, I think I woke you up.


    "As it is...."


    Shtilka crawled toward Tiara Rose with a big stretch.Keep your hands up and hold on tightly.Looks like he''s still asleep.


    "I''m sorry, you''re still sleepy, aren''t you?"


    Tiara Rose strokes Shtilka''s head, saying, "Good boy, good boy."Lie down and sing a lullaby.


    "Shake the basket of flowers, and sleep with a good boy.?"


    Soon, her eyelids fell, and Shtilka began to wake up feeling good.


    When I saw how cute it was, Tiara Rose got dizzy."I''m still in my dress, and I haven''t even removed my makeup..."


    - I have to get up.


    Somehow, as I tried to get out of bed, I put my strength in my arm, and a gentle hand stroked my head.


    "Aqua, if you do that, I''ll be asleep"


    It doesn''t matter.


    I don''t care!


    It feels so good that you''re going to fall asleep.


    I tried to get up thinking I shouldn''t stay like this, but Aquastide was trying to put me to sleep without hesitation.


    "I''ll do everything for you, I''ll be fine"


    "--Oh!?"


    Aquastide''s words made my face burning.


    --That''s not okay at all!?


    I''m so sorry if Aquastide asked me to change into nightwear and remove my makeup...


    Also, it is about AquaStead, so I think it will be perfectly finished with lotion.


    --If you do that, you''ll be corrupted!


    I shake my head and Tiara Rose gets up somehow.


    Aquastide felt sorry for her, but she felt the same way about Tiara Rose.So I gulped down to Aquastide.


    "... please let me sweeten it when I''m awake properly"


    ¡°Yeah. Sleeping tiara is cute, but she''s awake and sweet.¡±


    Tickling and laughing, Aquastide kisses Tiara Rose gently, ¡°Sweeten me more.¡±


    "Nh..."


    When Tiara Rose accepts it honestly, the kiss gradually deepens and her body jumps.I was pushed down like this--the moment I thought about it, Aquastide''s movements stopped.


    You look like you''re surprised by something.


    "...... Aqua?"


    "Ah, no... I feel like the magic power inside Tiara is growing somehow."


    It seems that the product has frozen unexpectedly.


    "Ah... it looks like there''s been a bit of an increase lately.That said, there''s nothing unusual about it. "


    "I hope Tiara isn''t feeling sick... but if anything happens, talk to her."You''ll be worried, won''t you? "


    "... yes"


    Tiara Rose nodded honestly, but she also wanted to increase her magic power and become stronger.That way, not only will you always be protected by Aquastide, but you will stand next to him with dignity.


    --But if you say that, you''ll be worried again.


    I can easily imagine it, and my smile spills out inadvertently.


    But it wasn''t Aquastide who missed it.


    Tiara?


    What did you think? Aquastide drew closer to her face.Since the hand is moved slowly, it will be tickled until it confesses.


    "I thought I could be stronger too...!"


    "I don''t have to hesitate to say it..."


    "...... because Aqua is going to tickle me until I say so, right?"


    When that happens, it''s up to you to finally confess.


    In that case, you''d better mouth it right away.That''s what Tiara Rose decided, but Aquastide''s disappointment was terrible.My lost hand seems lonely.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "... oh, wait, Aqua! Stop tickling silently...!" Fufu, fufu. "


    Even though he confessed, he was tickled, and Tiara Rose twisted herself.


    "If Aqua tickles, it''s me!"


    Tiara?


    It was Tiara Rose who wanted to tickle me in the same way, but her hand stopped.The gaze went to the "Starry Sky King''s Ring" attached to the index finger of his left hand.


    Slightly, but sparkling.


    - Is it full of magic?


    Tiara Rose''s eyes nailed to the mystery she could not normally see.


    Aquastide noticed it, and his gaze shifted to Tiara Rose''s ring.They must have detected the anomaly in the same way.


    - But I don''t feel bad.


    I''m sure it''s because this starry sky ring is under the magic of Aquastide.


    --That''s why I thought my magic power was increasing... because of Aqua''s growing magic power?


    This ring is for Tiara Rose to capture some of the power of Aquastide, who is too powerful.


    In other words, Aqua Steed is getting stronger.


    "This is what made Tiara''s magic power stronger..."


    "Looks like it." Is there anything wrong with Aqua? "


    "I have no problem at all.... but if it''s a burden on Tiara, we should think of a solution."


    Having said that, Aquastide puts his hand on his chin and takes it seriously.


    The magic problem is so hard that I don''t like it when Tiara Rose wears her child.


    I wonder what''s going to happen next.


    Aquastide hugged the tiara rose and rolled his face down his shoulder.


    "I''m sorry for being so shy."


    "It''s not unreasonable." Aqua is my lovely husband.I know you''re working harder than anyone. ¡±


    If this doesn''t end well, I''m sure there''s no man worthy of it in this world.


    Tiara Rose smiled, slightly loosening the power of Aquastide''s hug.


    Thank you, Tiara.


    "No. It''s kind of unusual for a weak Aqua." Do you sweeten it? "


    "Tiara... you''re enjoying this situation, aren''t you?"


    ¨D¨D¨D¨D


    Tiara Rose quickly turned her face as she was swept away.


    ¡°Tiara feels optimistic about herself and puts it behind her.¡±


    "... you may not be able to deny it, but you''re really not feeling sick."Even magic isn''t that much to worry about. "


    Rather, I felt that the magic was getting better, so I was happy to create a tiara rose... but Aqua Steed was worried and had no choice.


    --Of course I know how Aqua feels, but...!


    However, I have not been very good at magic until now -- honestly, I can''t deny that I am a bit happy.


    And suddenly, Tiara Rose thinks of something to do with Pikon.Because his expression suddenly brightened up, Aquastide said, "What did you come up with?It''s said. "


    ¡±... I wish Aqua could teach me how to use magic...¡±


    Magic?


    "Yes, the magic I used was limited to making sweets, but since I had more magic power, I could use it differently."


    Tiara Rose took the water bottle on the side table and filled it with almost no water with magic.Until now, I couldn''t do this.


    "I see... it''s certainly not a bad thing to learn magic properly."I''ll tell you whenever I want. ¡±


    Thank you very much.


    Tiara Rose clung to Aquastide''s pleasure.I feel very relieved when I deposit my weight because it will be taken care of.


    ¨D ¨D In Aqua''s arms, it feels comfortable.


    I feel like I want to spend the rest of my life like this.


    Then, Aquastide''s hand stroked Tiara Rose''s hair.Fluffy hair is pleasant to the touch, and you want to keep touching Aquastide forever.


    "Tiara"


    "Aqua..."


    The named Tiara Rose slowly leaves her body with her hands on Aquastide''s chest.


    Seeing her gentle golden eyes narrowed, she floated her body a little and kissed herself ©¤ ©¤


    Miaa!?


    ©¤ ©¤ The moment I tried to kiss her, Tiara Rose''s body turned into a pure white, adorable cat figure.

 185 5. Cute Mom

    Tiara!?


    Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!?


    The sudden change of appearance surprised Tiara Rose and of course Aquastide.I can''t believe humans become cats.


    Tiara Rose looks at her puffy feet and quickly turns pale.


    I rushed to the front of my face and checked my whole body.


    You can see a fluffy white cat.


    It is similar in type to Persia and has long hair.The patchy light blue eyes still had the appearance of a tiara rose.


    I''m a cat!!


    --And it''s cute!!


    I would definitely like to hug you, but I can''t afford to think of such a long time when you become a cat.


    It''s going to happen!


    As Tiara Rose wiggled in front of her, she was lifted from behind.It supports my armpits and buttocks, so it is firmly fixed.


    Of course, the person who hugged him was Aquastide.


    "Tiara... right?"


    Nahhhhhhh!


    "Why... was the Starry Sky King''s ring glowing just before, so it''s definitely related to that." I''m sorry, Tiara. "


    Oh no! (It''s not Aqua''s fault!)


    Tiara Rose shakes her head and tells Aquastide she''s sorry.


    If the Starry King''s ring was involved, it wasn''t just Aquastide''s fault.Even for me, there must be a lack of strength.


    "I can only hear you... but I know what Tiara wants to say." Thank you, Tiara. "


    Nyaaaaaaaaaaaah!


    As the tiara rose gently stroked her chest, Aquastide stroked the tiara rose''s forehead like a tickle.


    The feeling of being tickled by your fingertips is completely different from that of human beings.The indescribable uneasiness and happiness is rising.


    If you want me to stroke you more and more, that''s what I think.


    - Oh, my God!


    Shamefully, even though I''m thinking about it, I want you to stroke it even more and push your forehead against Aquastide''s hand unconsciously.I rubbed it around and marked this person as my husband.


    "...... Tiara, you''re too cute"


    ¡±Umiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii


    "The thighs are furry and the hairline is beautiful"


    ...!


    This time, I was tickled under my chin, and Tiara Rose was already lying down with surrender.Then your stomach will be stroked and melted.


    Mija ~ (This is dangerous!)


    "Nnhhh"


    What?


    Maybe because Tiara Rose was chattering, Shtilka and Shtilio woke up.


    Awwww!!


    I tried to find a place where Tiara Rose could run away in a hurry, but before I could do that, I asked Shtilka, "Cat?I grabbed it. "


    Nahhhh ~


    "...... Luca, Rio, give her a gentle stroke"


    Nyaah!? (Aqua!?)


    Ahh!


    Ni-chan-chan.


    Shtilka replied cheerfully, and Shtilio happily embraced Tiara Rose''s hood.


    - Ugh, I can''t let it get out of the way.


    Fortunately, it has not been revealed that he is a mother, so he concludes that it would be good to penetrate as a cat here.


    Aquastide is also watching with a smile, so that''s probably what he''s going to do.


    --Then, it''s best to deal with it as a cat.


    I tried to play with him like that - but the door opened forcefully and Lucia Rose jumped in.


    Mother ~, huh?


    However, I couldn''t find the Tiara Rose I was looking for, and my eyes blinked.


    The maid who was standing behind Lucia Rose thanked her for the appearance of Aquastide and left the scene behind.


    Lucia Rose looked around the room and saw Aquastide, Shtilka, Shtilio...... and everyone in turn.


    And the last thing you saw in Lucia Rose''s eyes was a cute white cat.


    "... Mother?"


    Nahhh!?


    ¨D¨D


    As it is?


    Mm-mm?


    Everyone was surprised by Lucia Rose''s words.


    Because I never thought I''d see a cat and say it''s my mother.I thought that even if you told me that you were a cute cat, you would be fooled.


    Shtilka and Shtilio stared at Tiara Rose and immediately said, "Stay!¡±He made his eyes shine.


    How did you know?!?


    As Tiara Rose stepped out of Shtilka''s arm to escape, she was held up by Aquastide.


    "Maybe it was judged by magic power."I''m a cat, but my magic and atmosphere are my usual tiara. "


    Aquastide is impressed that children look at the inside more closely.


    Nah... (I see...)


    "Mother, you''re so cute!"


    Lucia gently hugged Tiara Rose.The face looks very happy, so if you can''t help it, you can hug me quietly.


    "Ehehe"


    "Ahhhhh!"


    Me too!


    Shtilka and Shtilio start making their own claims, and the two of them turn to Tiara Rose.


    Niiiiiiiii!?


    As expected, even the three children are crushed by the current small body.


    When Tiara Rose tried to escape in a hurry, Lucia Rose said, "Damn it!¡±He drew attention to Shtilka and Shtilio.


    Your mother will be crushed, right?


    Ugh ~


    "Nhh..."


    When Lucia Rose noticed, Shtilka and Shtilio lowered their brows and stepped away from Tiara Rose.


    --It''s great to hear what your sister has to say...!


    I don''t usually feel much, but I feel emotionally that my children are growing up every day.


    Lucia untied the ribbon she was using for her dumpling hair and put it on Tiara Rose''s neck.


    Aquastide takes it and looks at Lucia Rose.


    Do you want me to follow you?


    Yeah!


    In response to Lucia Rose''s energetic reply, Aquastide smiles and ties the ribbon around her neck.


    The pretty light blue lace ribbon looks great on pure white hair.


    Lovely!


    "Ahhhh!"


    Aiii!


    Thank you, Lucia!


    Instead of thanking her, Tiara Rose rubbed her head against Lucia Rose''s cheek.


    I''m so sorry.


    Knock, knock, knock.


    Seeing that, Shtilka and Shtilio said, "Me too," and the parents and children had fun.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Eh!? Master Tiara Rose!?"


    "I''m surprised at this..."


    ¡­¡­


    The next day, Tiara Rose''s body did not return to humans, so she explained the situation only to Olivia, Levi, Elliott, and Talmo.


    Please keep in mind that Tiara is not feeling well.


    Got it.


    Tiara Rose is relieved because she doesn''t seem to get confused anytime soon.


    Niwa ~ (Thank you, Master Olivia)


    "Lady Tiara Rose... ahh, she''s so cute!That''s my senpai!I''ve done it... uuuuuu


    "Olivia"


    As Olivia mouths her thoughts on Tiara Rose, who has become a cat, Levi gently squeezes her nose with a handkerchief.


    ¡±Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn¡±


    I was worried about the red dyed handkerchief, and Levi immediately changed to a new one.What a calm and brilliant butler.


    Olivia, with her nose stopped bleeding, coughs up a cough and calls out to the deacon "Levi".


    Then, from Levi''s pocket came several types of brushes for cats, and toys such as cat teasing and kicking.


    Nah!? (Why would you do such a thing?!)


    I just told you that Tiara Rose has become a cat, but it''s a complete set... This butler is still quite strange.


    At the time, Olivia also said, "I was going to have you ready!"I''m surprised.


    ¡°This is a top-of-the-line cat brush, so I think it''s perfect for Tiara Rose.¡±


    That''s right, Levi!


    Olivia''s a butler, of course.


    Olivia gently brushed Tiara Rose''s back as she took Levy''s brush.


    I usually get my hair worn out, but when I become a cat, I need to brush my whole body.


    Nah......


    "It''s okay, Master Tiara Rose!" Even in the shape of a cat, I''ll finish it perfectly. "


    I was a little worried, but Olivia seems quite motivated.In fact, brushing is also good.


    Nahhh ~


    - It feels so good.


    The difference between a child who likes brushes and a child who does not like brushes is strong, but it seems that he is the type he likes.


    I want to lie down like this and leave myself to it.


    That''s what I thought, but it takes a stop.


    "Miss Olivia, I''ll do the brushing."


    Yes, Your Majesty, Aquastide.


    Apparently, Aquastide didn''t want to see the pleasantly brushed Tiara Rose figure, so he decided to do it himself.


    Olivia nodded her eyes in love.


    Well then, I''ll go down to adjust Tiara Rose''s schedule.


    ¡°I''ll also adjust my schedule and check the library for similar cases.¡±


    "I''m escorting you outside the door."


    Thank you very much.


    Confirming that everyone had left the room, Aquastide relaxed his shoulders.I sat down to sink into the sofa, so I was quite distracted.


    What? (Aqua, are you tired...?)


    Tiara Rose jumped onto Aquastide''s lap worriedly and stroked her gently.


    Then, my serious eyes were turned, and I felt dizzy.


    "Tiara, a little... uhm..."


    What?


    Miss Olivia is too defenseless.


    Even though Elliot and the others were in the room, they seemed to be frustrated when they saw the Tiara Rose, which seemed to feel good with brushing.


    - Sure! How many cats do I have, but in front of other men... it''s no good!


    Gagan and the shocked Tiara Rose can''t help but run under the sofa.


    Unlike humans, cats are amazing because they can go to narrow, dark places.


    Hey, Tiara!


    Nnnnnnnnnn!


    Your tail shakes unconsciously.


    Aquastide crouched down and peered under the sofa, gesturing to Tiara Rose, ¡°Come here.¡±


    Nah! (Aqua kneeling under the sofa...!)


    Instantly judging that it was no good, Tiara Rose jumped out.When I settled down on Aquastide''s chest, I giggled and laughed.


    Nahhhhh!


    "No, I thought it was cute." I''ll brush it for you


    Aquastide sits back on the sofa and starts brushing with a tiara rose on her lap.


    Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwhwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww


    --That''s right, Aqua, brushing skills are superb...!


    When I noticed it, Tiara Rose fell completely asleep.


    "... have you gone to sleep?"


    Aquastide strokes the tiara rose''s forehead as it feels good to sleep.However, the expression on his face was not a gentle smile like before, but a harsh one.


    "Tiara..."


    Aquastide''s voice quietly fell in the shrill room.

 186 6. Human and Cat Life

    An empty temple above the Marine Forest.


    There is an empty fairy king Crail who is always watching over the marine forest.It''s not an easy place to go, but some people are allowed to visit.


    "Claire"


    "Oh, Aquastide, welcome."


    One of them was Aquastide.


    Blessed by Crail from a young age, you can come to this temple freely.


    In fact, the Fairy King Claire in the sky has been dating Aquastide for a long time.


    Beautiful hair cut from a blue to white gradient, and golden eyes that are a testament to the king.He manipulates the power of the sky and is skilled in information warfare.


    Oh, you''re finally here.


    "-! Lady Pearl"


    A pearl with three teas appeared from the back of the temple.Apparently, Claire was expecting Aquastide.


    The fairy king of the sea, Pearl, who became Claire''s lover.


    Golden eyes showing the king in long, beautiful silver hair.The Japanese design of the dress is gorgeous and adds to the charm of the pearl.


    Blessed are Aquastide and Tiara Rose.


    Pearl put a cup of tea on the table and prepared some sweets for me.


    "I''m sorry, I didn''t expect you to prepare it for Pearl-sama."


    "I don''t mind this." What the hell are you doing here? "


    Looks like Claire didn''t even tell Pearl about it.


    Aquastide visited under the clay to discuss the cat''s death in Tiara Rose.


    I smiled in front of Tiara Rose, and although I didn''t care, I felt more impatient than ever inside.


    - We need to find a solution as soon as possible.


    Aquastide thinks that if Claire knew how to do something - I think so - perhaps that hope will be dim.


    Of course, if Claire and Pearl knew the solution, they wouldn''t have gone beyond that, but there was something else I wanted to ask.


    "Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on... what, Tiara, have you stopped being human?"


    Nnnnnnn! (Keith! Please don''t!!) "


    As Tiara Rose was playing with the children with Olivia, Keith metamorphosed.


    Seriously, I looked at Tiara Rose and grabbed her head and hugged her.


    "What, you can''t speak..."


    Nahhhhh!!


    Tiara Rose fights back, but it doesn''t work for Keith at all.


    Olivia was flustered behind her and was worried about "Tiara Rose...", but I even felt like it was written on her face that she was noble.


    Keith, the fairy king of the forest, was happily lifting up the tiara rose.


    Dark green long hair tied together, feisty golden eyes.There is a fan on the waist, and the dignified standing behavior is majestic.


    Freedom, but always someone you can count on to help Tiara Rose.


    Keith!


    Kiiiii


    Kiiiii


    Lucia Rose, Shtilka, and Shtilio were glad that Keith had come, and suddenly smiled at them.


    "Hey, hey, you can''t move."


    Dazed by the Lucia Roses clinging to her legs, Keith didn''t try to shake it.I kind of complain, but I''m gentle.


    When Tiara Rose looked at the children, she suddenly returned from the cat to the human figure.


    "--Oh!?"


    Tiara!?


    Keith kept quiet, so he didn''t fall to the floor, but suddenly his heart was making a terrible noise.


    - I''m surprised... ah!


    "But I''m back to being human. Thank goodness."


    What, are you going back now?


    Tiara Rose swells her cheeks when she teases Keith and decides that humans are better.


    "It was inconvenient because I could only talk to you... after all, my body is the best thing for me"


    Mother!


    Lucia Rose clutched her arms tightly.


    I loved how cute the cat looked, but the usual tiara rose seems to be the best.Shtilka and Shtilio stuck to the Tiara Rose away from Keith''s feet.


    "I''m glad we''re back together."Retighten the ribbon. ¡±


    "Thank you, Lord Olivia."


    When I was a cat, the ribbon Lucia Rose gave me was caught in my hair, so Olivia tied it back nicely.


    Levi needs you to contact His Majesty Aquastide.


    Got it.


    Watching Levi leave the room, Olivia sits Tiara Rose down on the couch.


    I''ll get you some tea and sweets soon.


    "Thank you!, Master Olivia"


    Why did you become a cat, and why did you come back?I have a lot of things to look into.


    But now Olivia has decided that it''s her top priority to serve sweets to Tiara Rose, who will be the most tired.


    You can enjoy the sweet things slowly until Aquastide arrives.


    "Ahh, that''s a fairy candy cake!"


    In front of Olivia''s cake, Tiara Rose''s eyes shine.


    The Lucia Roses next door reacted the same way, so it''s kind of smiling.


    "I''m sorry..."


    - Sure.


    The moment I tried to say that, for some reason, Tiara Rose''s body turned into a cat again.The fluffy white fur is like a shortcake.


    Nahhh!?


    "Mother, you''re cute."


    Lucia puts the tiara rose, which has become a cat, on her lap and gives her a sneer on her head.


    Although I am very happy about that, I can''t hide my confusion that I have become a cat again even though I have managed to return to being a human.


    Nah......


    Tiara rose spoke anxiously, and Lucia rose said, "It''s okay!¡±He worked hard to cheer me up.


    Nah... (Lucia...)


    What a good boy, Tiara Rose is impressed with the growth of my child.


    Just by being in a weak position as a cat, I feel that my children are growing up more than usual.


    Lucia Rose, who gives me a tight hug, is somewhat trustworthy.


    "I''m busy being a cat and a human."


    Nnnnnnn! (I like it and it''s changing!)


    "Oh, a cat punch?"


    Nnnnnnnnnnn!!


    If I was flapping my hands at Keith, he''d tease me even harder.


    Tiara, are you back?!


    Aquastide rushed in with Levi, but the tiara rose was still a cat, so he unexpectedly lost his words.


    Tiara?


    Nah ~ (Yes)


    Tiara Rose nods desperately, Aquastide kneels in front of the sofa and strokes her forehead like a tickle.


    "I was talking about returning to the human figure... but to the cat again?"


    Aquastide looks at Tiara Rose, then Keith.


    If I asked for an explanation, I thought Keith, who was also familiar with magical powers, would be the right person.


    "Even so, I don''t know the cause."It''s true that Tiara''s magic power is increasing... but it''s not beyond control. "


    However, I didn''t have that much magic power until now, and I hardly had the chance to use magic, so I was asked if I could control my magic power well.


    If you can control the increased magic power, you can become a human or a cat with the will of Tiara Rose.That''s what Keith thought.


    --In other words, if I practice my magic hard, it will be stable?


    Other than when I have used it for sweets, there are also clauses that I have been using with considerable momentum.


    The children have high magic power, and it may be important to be able to control more magic power for the future.


    I''ll do my best!


    Nya, I don''t know.


    Keith laughed at Tiara Rose and continued his conversation.


    "That said, originally, this magic power was not something that ordinary humans controlled."Because it''s the magic power of the Starry Sky King. "


    You can take it, but it''s hard to use it consciously.That''s why it''s no wonder that Tiara Rose can''t handle her magic power well.


    Nahhh...


    ¡±I''m so worried, I might be able to handle it sooner or later¡±


    Nyaa (too optimistic)


    Aquastide notices Tiara Rose''s cat''s tail swaying from side to side.Probably, your mind is twitching.


    It''s a tiara rose that''s usually able to make a surface with a smile, but that''s exactly what a cat can''t do.


    --It''s like my lack of strength has led to it.


    There is no need for Tiara Rose to blame herself.Aquastide bit his lips at his own helplessness.


    Wow, it''s been a long time since you''ve been king, Ferres!


    ¡°Well, if you''ve seen a lot of marine forests, it''ll be a couple of years in a jiffy.¡±


    Ferrez giggled as he giggled at Liguria.


    But if you''re telling the truth, there''s still a lot to see.This time, I stopped by the capital for the first time in a long time, but I plan to travel again in a while.


    Lilliage snorted his nose and opened his eyes wide.


    It smells very delicious and sweet!This is definitely a sweet!! "


    "Speaking of which, did you hear rumors that a new shop has opened..."


    Let''s go!!


    Lige Marine Forest, a sweet lover of Tiara Rose influences.


    He also looks like a Pomeranian with a puffy little black animal.There was a small horn on his head, and he was a monster that used to be in the basement of the Royal Castle.


    Now she''s regaining her reason and traveling in the Marine Forest with Ferrez.


    Ferres Marine Forest, the first king of the Marine Forest.


    A gentle man with platinum and golden hair and a face resembling an aquastide.I spent most of my time under the royal castle, but with the help of Tiara Rose, I was able to move freely.


    He was also the first Starry Sky King, but now he''s relaxed by entrusting his position to Aquastide.


    As they walk, a gust of wind blows.


    "I found it! I can''t believe I''m back here."


    Claire!


    "Oh, is there something urgent?"


    Claire sighed in disgust at Ferrez.We''re in a real emergency here.


    "Yes, Tiara Rose changed her appearance just like Lilia did."


    --Oh!


    ¨D¨D!!

 187 7. Fufu Friends

    The Marine Forest has beautiful clear skies, abundant land, and a sea of life where you can see the stars at night.


    That is because the fairy king of the sky, the forest, the sea, and the starry king are watching over this land all the time.


    Future schedules were discussed in Tiara Rose''s private room in the Imperial Castle.


    For the time being, you should rest from your official duties until your magic calms down.


    While saying that, Olivia adjusts her schedule while having Levi assist her.


    I''m sorry, but Tiara Rose has no choice but to spend some time in her room.As expected, the queen suddenly became a cat, which was a difficult explanation.


    "I''m sorry, because I''m immature..."


    "That''s not true!"I can''t even use magic. "


    Tiara Rose lowered her eyebrows, but Olivia shook her head and smiled, ¡°It''s okay.¡±


    "This is a pleasure for the Villain Lady!"Ishira-sama will also get married, and Fufu, my role as the Villain''s Lady... it''s really over. "


    "Master Olivia..."


    The words of Olivia, who seemed to be lonely somewhere, made Tiara Rose feel indescribable.


    Both Tiara Rose and Olivia are villainous ladies.


    Who the heroine Akari and Ishira will be associated with, and what they will do - this will change their fate a lot.


    However, in the case of Tiara Rose, Aquastide, the target character of the sequel, took irregular actions and lived happily ever after...


    And then, Tiara Rose wondered what would happen to the Villain Daughter after the end of the sequel.


    It''s fair to say that the story of the Villain Lady being happy is almost non-existent.


    Tiara Rose looks at Olivia with a bad sweat.


    However, there was no colour of anxiety on his face, and he looked happy.


    "What is the end of the Villainous Lady after the ending?"Looking at Lord Olivia now, I can see that it doesn''t look bad..... "


    "As for me, I would have liked to be expelled from the country....."


    Olivia-sama!?


    Tiara Rose is in a hurry, not to think that she would like to be banished from the country.


    Olivia hasn''t been acquitted, and I don''t think anyone wants to be expelled from the country in the first place.


    It''s not His Majesty''s route, so I have little influence on it.


    Ah, Lord Olivia was originally in the position of Aqua''s fianc¨¦e.


    ¡°Yes, so if Ishira chose someone other than His Majesty Aquastide, it would be a game to get married.¡±


    The reason why this is not happening is that when Olivia looked at Aquastide as a child, her nose bleeding became so noble that she couldn''t stop it - I''m going to omit it here.


    Tiara Rose was relieved to know that Olivia would not be affected when Ishira was tied to Kyle and the game was over.


    Now, let''s brew the tea again and take it slowly--that''s why the figure of Tiara Rose has changed from a human to a cat.


    A white, fluffy, adorable cat that resembles Persia.A ribbon obtained from Lucia Rose is attached to the neck.


    "Haha, you''re adorable, Master Tiara Rose!"


    Nahh...... (Ahaha......)


    Tiara Rose smiles bitterly as Olivia hugs her and turns herself into a cat.


    Aquastide and the others have done a lot of research, but the Tiara Rose is still a human and a cat.


    Well, I just adjusted my schedule for that.


    "If only I could be transformed by the connection with the villainous daughter..."


    I wonder? (Does Master Olivia want to be a cat too?)


    "If I could be a bird, I might be able to fly to Master Crail''s temple!"As expected, there is no way to go to the temple above.... "


    It was written on Olivia''s face that she wanted to go and see it.


    Of course, Olivia''s sniffed, hoping to visit Keith''s Castle and the Pearl Palace at the bottom of the ocean.


    --Mr. Olivia is very positive.


    Tiara Rose wondered if she should spend her time thinking like that.


    I feel more comfortable with Aquastide than I do with a cat, and I think I can run faster than usual.It might be fun to find a sunny spot in the Royal Castle and soak up the sun.


    Thinking like that, it wasn''t bad to be a cat - that''s how I thought.


    Climbing a tall tree in the garden of the royal castle, Ferres and Lige sneaked through the window into Tiara Rose''s room.


    I asked Claire about the current situation and thought about checking on the current situation from a distance.


    That white cat is Tiara, isn''t it?


    She''s cute and she wants a hug! Lilliage thought so, but immediately said, "No!''I shook my head.


    Isn''t it okay?


    No, I can''t! I mean, Ferrez, you were in the same state... as me. "


    Lilyage''s voice was getting smaller and smaller.


    If that Tiara Rose''s condition was the same as hers - maybe she couldn''t catch the power of the powerful starry sky and became the same as herself.


    Although it seemed calm, Liriage could not make that decision, so she became anxious.


    Tiara Rose saved Lige and Ferrez.


    I don''t want you to be a monster.


    If there is a way to help Tiara Rose, Lige thinks she can do whatever she wants.


    Does Ferrez know why Tiara changed her shape?


    Ferrez smiled gently as Lige shook her eyes.


    "That ring is fine."


    Are you sure...?


    Tiara Rose just couldn''t catch the magic and changed her appearance, so nothing has changed in her essence.


    Ferrez explained that he could not handle the overflowing magic power, and that his appearance had only changed.


    That''s why Tiara Rose, who wears a ring, loses her ego like she did when she was in Ligature, and doesn''t become a giant monster.


    ¡±In other words, as long as you''re wearing that ring......¡±


    Yeah, that''s why the Starry King''s ring is made for me.


    That''s why Tiara Rose is fine.


    That said - if you stay like this, you won''t be incapacitated.I don''t know when humans and cats will change.


    Lilliage breathes deeply and is relieved.


    When I relaxed my body, I clung to Ferres.For the time being, let''s do it because Lilliage didn''t have the worst idea.


    However, this problem is not good for sending ahead.


    ¨D ¨D On this occasion, I might as well study magic with Tiara.


    Did you stay here, Lord Ferrez, Master Lilliage?


    Aqua, it''s been a long time.


    Aqua! You''ve grown!


    "...... I''m glad you haven''t changed either."


    Aquastide greeted Ferrez and Lige while holding his breath.


    I was looking for the location of the two men from Crail, but I didn''t think they were snooping on Tiara Rose.


    ¡°You two have something I need to ask you soon.¡±


    You''re talking about a change in Tiara.


    "Yes, sir."


    Lilliage says, "I know," and jumps out of Ferrez''s arm and gets Aquastide to take it under the tree.


    And while Ferres lowered his eyebrows "ah... ah", he jumped down and immediately lifted up Lyrage.


    I just had Ferrez tell me about it.Tiara will not be like me, because she has the ring of the king of the stars. "


    So don''t worry, Lige smiles.


    "However, you should be able to handle magic power a little more."Or maybe I could transfer my excess magic power to something else...That way, you won''t have to be a cat. ¡±


    "I see... thank you." I''m relieved. "


    It would be difficult to transfer magic power separately.


    I''ve been struggling to find a good way to get to a place with a lot of magical power.Think realistically and learn how Tiara Rose handles magic.Fortunately, many people are good at magic.Including Aquastide, of course.


    ¨D ¨D Since Tiara uses magic power to make sweets, she''s not a bad handler.


    Simply, I wasn''t used to dealing with tons of magic power.


    Aquastide thought it would be better to ask the Fairy King for help while thinking about his schedule.


    Keith also told me that Tiara Rose should learn how to handle magic, so I''m sure she''ll help.


    Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (


    Tiara Rose shouted in surprise as she watched Ferres and Lilliage come along with Aquastide.


    ¡°It''s okay,¡± Lilliage smiles as she bows in a hurry in the shape of a cat.


    It''s been a long time, Tiara, Olivia.


    I''ve been going around the Marine Forest for a while, and it''s been really slow to show my face.


    Nah (No, that''s not true...)


    "It''s been a long time." Your Highness Ferres, Lyriage. "


    Olivia immediately greets Levi with a cup of tea.


    Lilliage jumped on the sofa where Tiara Rose sat and rubbed her cheeks.


    Wow, it''s so fluffy ~!


    Nnnnnnnnnnnnn!


    The warmth of the folds is twice as good when you snuggle up, because they are both folds.


    --I think I know how it feels to have a friendly animal sleeping with you!


    They also snuck up from Tiara Rose and smiled at each other.


    The husbands who were watching it behind them had such a smile on their faces.It is easy to see that my wife thinks she is cute.


    I thought it would be better to call the painter and keep a record of it, when the two fell in love because of the warmth of each other.

 188 8. Acari attack

    In the private room of Tiara Rose. Tiara Rose and Lige, in human form, are sitting on the sofa.


    To control the growing magic of the Starry Sky King, Tiara Rose was to focus on studying magic.


    Aquastide and Keith came forward as lecturers on the first day.


    "If it''s magic, I''m better than someone who''s been alive for over a thousand years!"


    ¡°I''m good at magic because Claire taught me, and I know Tiara very well.¡±


    Either one of them will act as instructor or they will be sparking sparks.


    As for Tiara Rose, I hope she doesn''t quarrel over such trivial matters, but Lyriage, who is next door, laughs happily.


    Fufu, Keith has gotten round too. It sounds very enjoyable. "


    "... that''s right."


    Tiara Rose agrees with Lige that it certainly seems like fun.


    We were really not close when we first met, so it is good for Tiara Rose that we now recognize each other.


    Now, Aqua Steed and Keith are here to see what happens.


    "I decided to teach each one of them."


    "Choose which one was easier to understand, me or Aqua."


    "Ehhh, me!?"


    I never thought I''d choose for myself.


    As for Tiara Rose, I want you to teach her from a variety of perspectives, so we can go together... but apparently you won''t forgive me.


    Smiling bitterly, Tiara Rose nodded, ¡°I understand.¡±


    So, first of all, I''m teacher Aquastide!


    Olivia and Levy say, "If you''re going to do it, do it!"Even Aqua Steed and Keith''s costumes were prepared.


    It seems that the two of them are uncomfortable because of their unfamiliar clothes.


    "It''s your first time wearing glasses..."


    Aquastide is dressed in scholarly, black-based clothes and wears glasses with chains decorated with corals.


    You might get the impression that you''re a tough math teacher.


    Next, Olivia looks at Keith.


    And I have prepared a white coat for instructor Keith!


    As for the image, it seems that the chemistry teacher...It was true that I was the Fairy King of the Forest, so I thought nature would be perfect for Keith.


    Although the feeling of roughness is unusual, the white coat makes Keith look more intelligent.


    Wow, that''s amazing.


    Both of you are lovely.


    Tiara Rose and Lige unexpectedly clapped their hands and loosened their cheeks in unusual outfits.A teacher like this would surely enjoy school too.


    Olivia looks proud, but she''s already too excited to change a few handkerchiefs.


    Well then, let''s start with me.


    Y-yeah!


    Teacher Aquastide sits next to him and gets a strange thrill.


    --It''s just not my usual outfit, and I can''t be so restless.


    "It''s okay, Tiara. Calm down first.There''s nothing difficult about it. "


    Yes.


    Breathing deeply into Aquastide''s words, Tiara Rose calms herself.I''ve always used magic when making sweets, so I''m sure the basics are there.


    "With the control of small magic powers, I could probably make sweets... but what I''m going to try today is the handling of large magic powers"


    If you can control this, you''ll be able to prevent Tiara Rose from becoming a cat.


    However, it is quite difficult.


    Tiara Rose may be different if she has the taste and talent to be born like Aquastide, but she''s not so good at magic.


    - I wonder if I can do it properly.


    Even if I''m anxious, it won''t start unless I try for the time being.


    I guess the goal is not to let my magic run wild...


    Let''s start by holding hands with Aquastide and checking his magic power.


    Tiara Rose doesn''t usually have to be aware of magic power.However, according to Aquastide, people who are used to fighting seem to be aware of it on a daily basis, and they also do it during training.


    Tiara Rose quietly closes her eyes and focuses her attention.


    As a sensation, use magic.But I don''t actually use it.Therefore, I think it is quite difficult.


    --The magic power in me.


    Born to have their own.And the blessings from Keith and Pearl were a definite part of the Tiara Rose.


    "Tiara, take a deep breath."


    "-! Yes"


    I forgot to take too much breath to concentrate.Take a deep breath and refocus.


    Then I realized that I had a lot of magic power inside me.


    --This is the magic power of the starry sky?


    Tiara Rose thinks it''s hard to consciously control the magic power she always uses because it''s so different from the magic power she always uses.


    - I wonder if it''s possible.


    The Aquastids, who normally handle this magic power, can only say that it''s amazing.


    I felt the magic, Aqua.


    "Yeah. Well, let''s imagine that we keep it inside ourselves."


    Yes!


    The moment Tiara Rose suddenly increases her concentration and tries to control the magic of the starry sky inside her - Ban!And the door opened.


    Tiara-sama! I''m here to play ~!


    Nyaah!? (Akari-sama!?)


    Surprised by the sudden arrival of acaricus, Tiara Rose had lost her focus on magic.I just want to hate acorns.


    "Huh...!? I just felt like Tiara-sama was there... but Aqua-sama looks good!"


    As she glanced around the room, Akastid quickly turned her attention to her outfit.


    "And Keith is wearing a white coat!? Wait, what is this event!"I don''t know!! "


    There was no sign of stopping the acaricus, which raised the tension so much that everyone wanted to hold their head - but they lowered their gaze with a "uh" voice.


    Behind the acorns... there was a little boy who tried to hide in a dress.


    "That''s right, I came with my son today!"Halka, say hello! "


    "Ahhh!"


    "Ehhhhh!"


    Acari Lapis Lazuli Lactomut, the first heroine of this game.


    Black straight long hair and black eyes.As a Japanese, she moved into this world and was associated with the Hartnights as a heroine in various games.


    As you can see, she always acts the way she likes, like a tension ghost.However, it is often saved by its ability to act.


    Now he is a close friend of Tiara Rose.


    And his son, Halka Lapis Lazuli Lactomut.


    The loosely wavy hair is black like my mother''s, and my eyes are blue like my father''s jewel.He''s just turned two, the first son of Akari and the Hartnights.


    Unlike his parents, he looks familiar and hides behind an acari dress.


    "Miss Akari, if you''re coming, please contact me."The knight and the maid are also in trouble..... "


    Looking at the door, the guard knight and the maid who guided her turned pale.


    I''m sorry, Aqua-sama, I wanted to surprise you!


    "I don''t need such a surprise..."


    Aquastide exchanged greetings while paying attention to the acorns in a tired manner.


    The other members in the room, Keith, Olivia, Levi, and Lige, greeted each other and were delighted to see you again.


    The last time Tiara Rose met Acari was two years ago, when Hulka was born.


    So, what about His Highness the Halt Knights?


    ¡°We have a lapis lazuli job, so unfortunately it''s just us.¡±


    "... I see."


    Even when a child is born, he seems to be doing it freely.Now the Haltnights are hurting their stomachs by themselves, or are you enjoying your time alone again...


    "It''s been a long time, Lord Olivia!"I missed you! "


    When Akari hugged Olivia, she said, "I am too!¡±Olivia laughs.


    He crouched down and wet his handkerchief in red to say hello to Halka.


    "--Oh!?"


    Ahhhh, I''m sorry if I wanted to!


    In an instant, I saw a red dyed handkerchief, and Hulka was crying silently.You must have been pretty scared.


    Olivia, who thought the reaction was fresh, turned away and reflected.


    It''s okay, Hulka. Fufu, you liked Olivia.


    "Master Acari..."


    Akari lifted Hulka and leaned her head again.


    So, what''s the event with Aqua and Keith?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone thought in their minds what to do about the acaric question.


    When I told you the situation, it seemed complicated, and I thought about it.That said, you can''t just shut up.


    When Aquastide tried to open his mouth, Tiara Rose returned from the cat to the human race, whether the timing was right or wrong.


    "Ahh!"


    The voices of everyone present at the scene were dumbfounded.


    "Eh, my cute cat has become like Tiara!"I thought you were Lilia-sama''s friend''s cat, and I wanted to hug you later! No way! Tiara-sama!! "


    Tiara Rose smiles bitterly as she looks at Aquastide as she sees the acorn tension rise even higher.


    "... let me tell you what happened."


    Sweets on the table and the scent of tea.


    By the time I calmed down, I had finished explaining everything.


    While stroking the head of Harka, who was fast asleep on her lap, Acari''s eyes were shining with excitement.


    Tiara Rose laughs when she sees such an acorn.


    "... so I was just practicing to think if I could stabilize my magic power."


    That''s right.


    The acaricus nodded, "I see!"


    "But I envy being a cat!"I want to be a cat too


    "Master Akari, it''s not that simple a problem..."


    "Well, I know that, but..."But I''m longing for it.Isn''t it fun to be a cat and have someone you like? ¡±


    It''s like a comic book, but it''s not funny as a tiara rose because it''s actually going to be like that.


    --But if Acari-sama turns into a cat, it''s going to be tough.


    If Acari were a cat, he would be truly free.


    Walk the impassable streets, bask in the sun until you feel like it, or get out of bed at night with a cat gathering.


    It''s hard for people other than Akari to swing around.


    "Then I''ll help you too!"I''m good at magic, too! "


    Tiara Rose smiled as she clenched her fist.

 189 9. Girls party after a long time

    ¡±Nhhhh, ahhh... no good¡±


    The tiara rose breathed heavily and drooped. Next to him stood Keith in white, shrugging his shoulders.


    What could go wrong was the control of Tiara Rose''s magic power. This isn''t going so well, anyway.


    With a small amount of magic power, I could control it without any problems, but as soon as I got bigger, it became more difficult.


    I tried to get Aquastide and Keith to teach me, but they both failed.


    "Mother, cheer up!"


    "Lucia... thank you"


    I think Tiara Rose must hug Lucia Rose and do her best to be a model for children!


    That said, difficult things are difficult.


    Lucia Rose was probably better at dealing with magic. Because there was a great deal of magic power before I was born.


    In the case of Tiara Rose, after growing up, she began to accept great magic power. It''s fine if you just accept it, but if you handle it, it''s a different story.


    ¡±Nhh, maybe I should think of something else at the same time¡±


    That''s right.


    While agreeing with Keith''s words, he troubled his head with what was going on.


    Well, now that Lilia''s here... you can ask her how to interact with the magic of the starry sky.


    "That''s right. I''m not going to slowly... but I''m going to think about a lot of things."


    The sound of a crispy pen and the occasional spill of a sigh.


    However, since the processing of documents proceeds as quickly as usual, I can only say that.


    Why don''t you get some rest, Master Aquastide?


    ¡±... no, no... that''s right¡±


    Side by side - Elliot nodded and Aquastide stood up and stretched out.


    I felt uncomfortable practicing the magic of Tiara Rose. It wasn''t going so well, and Aquastide felt like he was being unwieldy.


    I wish I could teach you better.


    Elliot gave me a cup of tea, so I took a break.


    Speaking of which, are you going to have a girls'' party today?


    "It seems to be Miss Acari''s suggestion." Speaking of which, can Filine come? ¡±


    Indeed, Aquastide recalls that the invitation that Tiara Rose received from Acari should have included Filine''s name.


    ¡°Yes, he said he would climb the castle when I got home.¡±


    "Well, then we have to get the job done quickly."


    It''s helpful.


    Elliot confirms his remaining workload and is relieved that it is coming to an end without any problems.


    There are maids in the Mansion, but Filine is the main babysitter. Elliot wants these opportunities to grow his wings slowly.


    "But once you start crying, you can hardly stop crying..." When it''s Filine, she stops crying, but when it''s me, it''s pretty... "


    Is it not possible because the body is stiff? And Elliot has distant eyes. Apparently, I don''t like children crying.


    Aquastide smiles bitterly at the question.


    Well, it''s easier to sleep softly than hard.


    Elliot nodded to Aquastide''s answer with all his might.


    I think back to the time when I mixed up with the Knights and went on an expedition to train... I stayed at the village inn, but I still remember the hard and hard beds there.


    "I still can''t sleep if I''m hard..."


    "It''s hard for us to beat our mothers."


    "That''s right, isn''t it? Finally, I''m trying to distract the children with my souvenirs....."


    So the Coral Shea Mansion is overflowing with children''s toys.


    Well, Aquastide and the others couldn''t deny it. I want to buy anything for my child, and I regularly receive toys from my grandparents of lapis lazuli.


    Having drunk up her tea, Aquastide stands up and says, "Okay."


    Let''s get the work done so that Filine can come early.


    Yes.


    The evening girls'' party, which was suddenly planned by Akari, was held from an early hour.


    The participating members are Tiara Rose, Acari, Olivia, Filine and Lige. Then Lucia Rose and Hulka.


    The matching negligee is available in light blue for tiara roses, pink for acorns, white for Olivia, and cream for filines. Lige has a large ribbon wrapped around her neck.


    Lucia Rose wrapped herself in a ribbon negligee and said, "Cute!" Halka is in a dream next to Lucia Rose. "


    Sweets and fruit water line the bed.


    The sweets are served with fairy candy, all of which have a gorgeous appearance and taste of Tiara Rose.


    "It''s been a long time since we had a girls'' party!"


    Acari raises the tension and asks about the situation.


    In the last few years, children have grown up and life has changed considerably. Olivia also enjoys spending every day as a maid of Tiara Rose.


    "Please tell us about Master Acari and Halka."


    Tiara Rose talks to Akari and asks how she''s doing.


    "Master Hartnights is a very good daddy!" They take good care of me, they feed me, and they take a bath! "


    Heehee...


    Is it better not to say what everyone thinks is unexpected?


    According to Akari, the Halt Knights are able to take care of everything by themselves. That''s why acorns are often on official business.


    Your Highness the Halt Knights is your husband, isn''t he?


    "That''s right! That''s why I think it''s okay to use this as an opportunity to increase the number of working women."


    There is a strong trend in this world that men work and women protect their homes.


    That''s why Acari says she''s on official business in Lapis Lazuli, hoping to blow up the concept.


    "Master Akari is saying something very decent..."


    "Tiara-sama, what do you think I am!" I''m still thinking a lot about this.


    "I''m sorry, Akari-sama..."


    Tiara Rose smiles as she apologizes, ¡°Very impressive.¡±


    Without the help of His Highness the Halt Knights...


    "That''s right, Mr. Hartnights," I said in a panic as I said hello to Harka! That''s what I''m saying ~! It''s cute!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Maybe the Hartnights are taking the initiative because they''re worried about raising acorns? I thought, but I didn''t think about it.


    Akari rolls around on the bed and charges at Olivia, who was next to her.


    "What about Master Olivia?" Are you not going to marry me? "


    Is it me?


    "I heard that Ishira-sama married Kyle!" In that case, isn''t it your turn to make the Villain''s Lady happy after all? "


    And since Olivia is already twenty-six, it''s not strange to get married.


    "Well, I can''t force it, either." It''s best to make Lord Olivia happy! "


    "Thank you, Acari-sama." For the time being... I enjoy my current life, so it might be good to get married for a while. I want to make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land..... "


    Sounds like Olivia.


    If you get married badly, you won''t be able to go on pilgrimage to the Holy Land.


    It won''t be a problem nearby, but if you get lapis lazuli, you''ll be absent for a long time. Then the marriage partner may not feel very well.


    - What about Levy?


    Then, Tiara Rose thought about it.


    Olivia is a good comprehender, and I''m sure she''s the one who thinks about Olivia the most in the world.


    That said, they have an identity barrier, so it''s difficult.


    If Olivia were to marry, Tiara Rose would have said she was the second son around the count.


    Akari laughs and looks at Filine.


    "--Oh!?"


    Filine unexpectedly stood up and said, "What...?" "Slightly backed up.


    "No, how''s my married life with Elliot...?"


    Acutely, the lives of the main characters in the game seem to be bothering me.


    That''s what Tiara Rose and Olivia agree to, so I think we need to stop the acaricide.


    "Marital life...?" I don''t think there''s any particular change..... "


    Perhaps there was something to talk about, Filine thinks of it at home.


    My husband, Elliot, is sometimes close to Aquastide and often works irregular hours.


    Sometimes I can''t go home, but I know that you''ll come home as soon as you can after you get married. He cares a lot about Philine and the house.


    Yeah, but you might want to do something about buying toys all the time.


    Filine laughs bitterly that the room is about to overflow with children''s toys.


    "You''re a sweet daddy for kids ~!"


    Elliot said, and Acari laughed.


    It''s so much fun just listening to you guys.


    Lige, who had only been listening, smiled and said, "I want to hear it forever."


    "Lilia-sama seems to have traveled around the Marine Forest!? I want to walk around the Marine Forest in every corner...!"


    I''m glad to hear that! I think I''ve seen most of the city and village. Wherever I went, it was lively, the rice was delicious, and it was fun. "


    "Ahhh, I want to go!"


    I want to go to the Marine Forest, to the Lapis Lazuli Kingdom, to all the rest of the world! And Olivia''s eyes glowed.


    It is true that this may not say marriage.


    Tiara rose giggled, "Mother ~" Lucia rose leaned against her lying back.


    Lucia Rose''s lips were sharp and she seemed bored somewhere.


    Oh, you must be bored.


    "Nnh!... ah! Your mother''s ring is sparkly and cute!"


    Huh?


    The Tiara Rose ring reflected the light of the lamp and was shining brighter than usual, so Lucia Rose was blinded by it.


    Even though I said that I would become a knight, I would still like something beautiful even if it was just a girl.


    "In the future, there will be a wonderful person who will give Lucia the ring."


    Tiara Rose said, "Really?¡± Lucia Rose loosened her cheeks.


    Then let''s give it to Hulka!


    Akari-sama!!


    Tiara Rose is in a hurry to tell you what to do again.


    Akari says, "I''m kidding," but I don''t know how serious it is. No, he must have been pretty serious.


    "Mother, I want to try it on!"


    Huh?


    Lucia Rose reached for Tiara Rose''s ring finger and pulled out the Starry King''s ring and put it on her finger.


    "--Ah"


    The voices of everyone there overlapped, and their gaze turned to the ring.


    And at that moment, Tiara Rose''s body turned to a cat.


    Udaaaaaaaa!


    Nervousness ran from the low-pitched voice of Tiara Rose.


    No way, hurry up and get the ring! If you keep this up, you''ll become a monster!! "

 190 10. New possibilities

    Aquastide stood up in a panic as he was reading in his room, making a loud noise.


    The location of the incident is just downstairs. Moreover, there was a disturbing noise from the rustle and the floor.


    There, the Tiara Roses are gathering for a girls'' party.


    Tiara!?


    Going out the hallway and down the stairs is slow, Aquastide goes out the window onto the balcony and goes straight down to the balcony of the room below.


    Brutal, but this is the fastest way.


    The first thing Aquastide saw as he landed on the downstairs balcony were the fur balls stuck in the room... and the acorns crushed by them.


    "This is..."


    Sea urchin!


    "...... Tiara!?"


    The fur ball that was neatly packed was a giant cat - the Tiara Rose.


    Aquastide took a breath when something he was afraid of finally happened.


    If I had been more careful, no, I wouldn''t have done this if I had had the tools to accept the power of the Starry King.


    Bite your lips into the depths of your power.


    - For now, the first priority is to help Tiara.


    But we can''t attack them, and Aquastide doesn''t know how to undo them. Akari shouted "Aqua-sama!" as she was worried about what was going on.


    Then I threw something at Aquastide.


    "Oh, here!"


    "--Oh, Starry King''s Ring!?"


    "It came off due to various circumstances!" May I speak to Master Tiara, please! "


    "... I see."


    I thought it was possible that Tiara Rose had suddenly become like this, but it seemed that it was due to the fact that the ring of the Starry King had come off.


    This ring also acts as a safety device that accepts the magical power of the Starry King.


    Therefore, even if the control of magic power was not good, as long as the Starry King''s ring was present, Tiara Rose would not lose her ego even if she became a cat.


    - We have to put the ring on somehow.


    Tiara-?


    But suddenly I noticed.


    The enormous Tiara Rose made a low roar, but she didn''t attack us at all.


    - Your body is trembling.


    "Umiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis


    "Are you enduring it?"


    The desire to protect what was important didn''t seem to allow Tiara Rose to cross the line.


    Now it''s just a big shivering cat.


    Aquastide sees his surroundings and confirms that everyone has been evacuated.


    Talmo, who was holding the door for security, and Levi, who was holding it somewhere, responded quickly.


    Slowly approaching the Tiara Rose, Aquastide calls its name.


    "Tiara"


    Miauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuruuu


    Although it was a roar, it responded properly.


    Even if you change your appearance, Tiara will still be my cute Tiara.


    Aquastide touches the tiara rose and dodges his face. The hair on the fuzzy fuzz is warm, and even though it''s in this situation, I feel somewhat happy.


    But the next moment, Tiara Rose''s tail swayed vigorously. Tiara Rose was holding her breath, but her limit was approaching.


    Aquastide lowers his body, avoids his tail, and jumps backwards.


    ¨D ¨D Tiara blames herself if someone scratches a wound.


    That''s why Aquastide tightens his head, saying that he should never get hurt. I can do anything for Tiara Rose.


    "But... what do we do now?"


    I''ve never dealt with such a big cat.


    It would be cute if it could react to cat bullshit.


    "Tiara"


    When I tried calling my name, my ears twitched and reacted.


    - Are you sure you can hear me?


    If so, this situation will be very difficult for Tiara Rose. Because the will and body do not match.


    Avoiding the swaying tail again, Aquastide enters Tiara Rose''s pocket. Then she hugged her neck and called out softly.


    "Can you give me the ring again?"


    After all, this ring must be worn on Tiara Rose''s fingers.


    Because it reacted to Aquastide''s voice, it stopped moving for a moment. When I took the left front leg in my hand and touched the ring ©¤ ©¤ it turned into a human figure.


    "Ah, ah, ah... ahhh"


    "It''s all right now, Tiara. I''m sorry I made you anxious."


    The starry sky king''s ring is attached to the left hand ring finger of Tiara Rose and gently touches the base of the finger. Your hands, cheeks, forehead, and lips.


    "No! I''m just immature..." and hurt everyone..... "


    "No one''s hurt."


    So don''t cry, Aquastide gently kissed the eyes of Tiara Rose, who spilled large grains of tears.


    After putting Tiara Rose in her bedroom, she moved to Aquastide''s office. The Tiara Rose is accompanied by Philine.


    I see, Lucia wanted to put on the ring.


    Aquastide nodded after hearing about the situation from Olivia.


    "Of course, we have to think of other ways to control the magic power as soon as possible..."


    Until now, Tiara Rose had never removed the Starry Sky King''s ring, but I can''t say that this will not happen again.


    It is better to think that unforeseen events will occur and to formulate measures.


    "No matter how far you go, the magic problem will persist... It''s Master Aqua and Master Tiara." I''m still powering up. "


    Beside the acari who admired it like that, Lilliage showed one possibility: "I have an idea".


    I hope there''s someone who can pass on Tiara''s magic power... right?


    If you can''t, leave it as it is.


    "Do you have any good ideas!? Master Lilia!!"


    When Aquastide nodded, the acaricus reacted with an odor. Lilliage nodded, "Just one."


    I think that''s a very difficult thing... but I think Tiara will be fine.


    Nh, nh...?


    Master Tiara Rose! Are you awake?


    "Filine?"


    Yes.


    Awake, Tiara Rose looked around the room, looking at Filine in front of her.


    It wasn''t the room where I was having the girls'' party earlier, it was my own bedroom. Were you transported to sleep? Thinking like that--happy.


    "That''s right, my ring..."


    When I hurriedly looked at my left hand, the ring of the Starry King was properly worn. To my relief, the memory of Lucia Rose holding the ring was somewhat vague.


    - But I remember it was somehow very painful.


    Filene, tell me what happened.


    "... yes"


    After Aquastide put the King of the Stars ring on the Tiara Rose and returned from the cat to the human - Philine was told by Aquastide to tell her everything that happened.


    I''m worried about Tiara Rose, so if you''ve forgotten, why don''t you tell her? The opinion was also expressed.


    However, there were occasional recollections, and AquaStead decided that as a party, it was better to know it well as a queen of the Marine Forest.


    When Filine finished speaking, Tiara Rose was dizzy.


    --- I, my God!!


    I''m glad I didn''t hurt everyone, but the most worrying thing is Lucia Rose.


    What about Lucia? What about Lucia?


    Lucia Rose would have been badly hurt if she had understood that her mother had become a monster.


    I''m more worried about Lucia Rose than I am about myself, so I can''t help it.


    Tiara Rose asked Filine in a hurry, smiling back, ¡°It''s okay.¡±


    "I was surprised... I cried, but now I''m sleeping well." Are you going to see it? "


    "... I''m worried I won''t wake you up, but right, just at a glance"


    I see. I''ll be right there.


    Filene prepared a coat for the tiara rose out of bed so I didn''t have to change. This should get you to Lucia Rose in no time.


    "Thank you, Filene."


    "No... it''s been a long time since you''ve taken care of Lady Tiara Rose."


    It''s been a few years since Filene got pregnant and took a break.


    It was originally scheduled to return soon, but since it was the second or third person, I couldn''t go back immediately.


    They regularly appear and have tea with Tiara Rose, so there is a lot of interaction.


    I was escorted by Talmo to Lucia Rose''s room.


    It''s kind of cute that it''s almost buried in a big bed. Tiara Rose feels relieved because she''s asleep feeling good.


    You''re sleeping well, aren''t you?


    Tiara sits on the edge of the bed and gently strokes Lucia''s forehead. I''m sure you''ve made me scared.


    I told Filine that I wanted to stay with her until the morning.


    First thing in the morning, Tiara Rose said good morning to Lucia Rose and wanted to hug her as much as she could.


    However, it may be difficult to do it by yourself because of the ring.


    --I wonder if I should talk to Aqua.


    Think about it that way, and I''ll do it again.


    "I woke up, but don''t contact Aqua...!"


    I was so worried about Lucia Rose that I was scornful of the others.


    At such a tiara rose, Filine laughs, "It''s okay."


    "As I told you, everyone is in a strategy meeting." I also asked the maid to tell me that Tiara Rose woke up before she came here. "


    Filine told me that Aquastide would be here soon.


    "Thank you, Filene."


    "You''re welcome. I''ll be with you, so you can stay with Lord Lucialose until His Majesty Aquastide arrives."


    "... well then, let''s spoil your words."


    Yes.


    Philine knew that Tiara Rose wanted to be with Lucia Rose.


    Until Aquastide arrived, Tiara Rose lay next to her lovely daughter.


    Aquastide''s office was quiet.


    Everyone''s gaze gathered at Liliaage, and the story was true...... and each one worried in his head about the truth.


    I''m sure no one has ever thought about it before.


    - Is that possible?


    Aquastide thought about it, but I think there is a possibility because Lilliage proposed it.


    Breathing in, Lilliage told me clearly once again.


    I''m going to create a new fairy and give it Tiara''s magic power.

 191 11. Reading in the Forest Library

    Wow, it smells good!


    ¡±It''s all sweets over there, isn''t it? I want to eat it!"


    The excited forest fairies were peeking at Tiara Rose''s "Fairy Sugar Confectionery" from the window solo.


    I don''t want to go out in front of people other than Tiara Rose, but this confectionery is very attractive.


    One fairy was flattered and said, "I have a great idea! ''I said, shouting.


    What, what the hell is that!?


    I heard it!


    Fufufu! If you want to eat sweets, Tiara can make them for you! ¡±


    The other fairies were also happy with the proposal that they had been told so loudly.


    I see!!


    The voices of all of them overlapped.


    Tiara Rose, Aquastide, and Lige were in Keith''s castle when the forest fairies were asking for treats.


    Because I have no idea how to [create a new fairy] that I said could create a liriage. No one knows how to do that, and the most familiar creil is yours.


    The Tiara Roses came to the forest archives at Keith''s Castle to look for clues.


    "You''re a new fairy..."


    Keith looked at the book in the woods and said, "Is there such a thing?" and leaning his neck.


    Even though I didn''t know about the Fairy King, I wondered if I could find any information in the library... and Tiara Rose was worried.


    It''s okay, I''m sure we have a lead!


    "... I see. Let''s try to find it!"


    Hearing the words of Lyriage, Tiara Rose got angry. The two of them began to read a book that depended on the allowance.


    Keith looks at Aquastide as he watches over the Tiara Roses.


    "... were you okay?"


    Yeah. It seems that my memories were nonsense, but I didn''t hide what happened.


    Keith was worried that the Starry King''s ring had come off the Tiara Rose and turned into a giant cat-monster.


    Now I''m wearing the ring of the Starry King, and I''m wearing lace gloves on top of it, so I won''t have to worry about breaking it.


    ¡±Hmph. Well, I don''t know... but it''s a new fairy anyway.¡±


    "It''s a trick state, but if it''s possible, I''ll bet on it." I tried to find another way to do it when Tiara got pregnant. ¡±


    That''s true, too.


    When Keith smiled, he switched to a serious look in an instant.


    "The moment the fairy was born, I witnessed it many times." But without exception, it''s all a forest fairy. "


    Keith says it''s hard to imagine a new fairy being born with a mutation. If there is such a thing, it shouldn''t be strange, even if there are a few examples.


    I''ve never seen any other fairy either.


    I might have felt the possibility if I had seen an unusual fairy, but Aquastide didn''t have that kind of experience either.


    ¡°Something to think about, or something more important.¡±


    Is it important?


    I''m talking about the new fairy king.


    ¨D¨D


    As a matter of course, there were Keith the Fairy King, but if a new Fairy was to be born, a new Fairy King would be needed.


    - Well, in the first place.


    How do you become a Fairy King?


    When it comes to fairies, there''s too much to know.


    In response to Aquastide''s question, Keith whispered, "I''m not familiar with it either..."


    "I was born a fairy king." Well, he''s a special fairy. "


    "That''s interesting."


    As a result, a new Fairy King will be born - can I think about that?


    But Aquastide remembers Pearl.


    ¡±Pearl-sama was definitely... the third generation of the Sea Fairy King?¡±


    "That''s right. In the case of Pearl, the most powerful sea fairy then became king... and got the name Pearl."


    "I see..."


    There seemed to be two patterns: when a fairy is born a king and when a fairy becomes a king.


    After that, what kind of fairy will be born?


    Miya


    Tiara?


    There was a lovely chirp from behind, and when I looked back, Tiara Rose turned into a white cat with a hoof.


    Nyaaah (Sorry, Aqua)


    "It''s okay. Come on, come on."


    Umia


    Aquastide lifted the tiara rose and tickled her chin. When you do this, it feels good and your expression melts.


    --Today I''m here to find out about fairies!


    However, Aquastide''s hands were comfortable and his throat naturally rattled.


    Miyaaa!


    Yeah?


    Even with a serious expression, my throat rattles. Although it is not revealed because it is a cat figure, Tiara Rose''s face is bright red.


    "What, you want me to touch you too?"


    Miya!


    Keith''s hand strokes Aquastide''s tiara rose head. My fingertips tickled my forehead and I called out, "Miaa."


    Aquastide''s hand suddenly stopped Keith''s.


    "Too much touching."


    "Oh my God, it''s nothing to lose, it''s just fine."


    Decrease


    The sparks scattered between Aquastide and Keith, and the Tiara Rose began again... "


    I used to be anxious to interact with them, but I''m used to it.


    - But don''t hold me in your arms.


    Thinking like that, Lilliage, who was reading a book of leaves, jumped.


    There it is!


    "Eh!?"


    Wow!


    I was surprised by Lige''s delightful voice, and Tiara Rose returned to her human form.


    Aquastide, who was holding the cat''s tiara rose, left me lying down, and I felt a little embarrassed when I saw her face that was still red.


    Oh, I''m going down! Aqua!


    "Are you going down? What a pity."


    Smiling and giggling, Aquastide lowered the Tiara Rose to the ground.


    "That''s right, Master Lilia!" Did it happen!? "


    "I can''t believe it''s really there..."


    Yes! I think this is it.


    As Tiara Rose rushed under the ligature, Keith peeked intriguingly. Keith seemed totally lost in his castle''s archives.


    Keith grabs the leaf book and reads out the title.


    "...... [Budding of Happiness]? Is this the book of the fairy''s birth?"


    When I read the contents, it was made like a picture book.


    There was a girl who lived in a land where the earth was withered and there was little to eat.


    Girls are crying every day.


    But it''s the same for girls'' families. I want my sister, brother, and father and mother to eat rice with their stomachs.


    That''s what I thought.


    The girl''s pleasure is to water the little sprouts that sprout on the rough ground. Someday, a bigger one would come and fetch water from a distant river.


    At one point, the girl noticed a mysterious force inside herself.


    I want the vegetables to grow and become a fruitful earth... When I made such a wish, the precious bud that I always cared for became the "Fairy of the Forest".


    The Fairy of the Forest blessed the earth, growing plants and creating a rich land.


    Girls were able to get a lot of food, and the whole family lived happily ever after.


    "--Me, me, me, me. Somehow, it''s a mundane story..."


    Keith was dumbfounded, but instead of being a fairy-born ugly... if this fact is true--


    "This is not the secret of Keith''s birth...."


    No, I don''t know if it''s a secret.


    Tiara Rose looks at Keith, wondering if she should have known this way. However, I don''t care about it, but I am shaken up.


    "Yes, when I was born, it was a terrible wasteland!" I still remember how hard it was to get to this forest. "


    You forgot...


    "Master Lilia..."


    Tiara Rose was also a distant sight to Lige, who had inadvertently put in the rough press.


    "Well, let''s put aside Keith''s birth defecation... this girl''s mysterious power must be magic."


    Yes!


    Lilliage nodded to Aquastide''s words.


    "If a fairy is born as in this picture book... first of all, it has magic power." Is there an object that can become a fairy?


    "As for magic power, I''m sure it won''t be a problem." It still has the magic power of the starry sky. "


    That''s why the problem was becoming a fairy.


    Keith was in the woods, Claire was in the sky, and Pearl was in the sea.


    It is easy to imagine the subjects that would have each become mediators, and it can be seen that it is an indispensable and important thing in people''s lives.


    "In other words, a fairy is born from something important to me...?"


    Keith answered Tiara Rose''s question.


    "I guess. You can just inject your magic power into the subject." If all goes well, new life will take hold and you''ll become a fairy... but you can''t do it with your vitality or magic power. "


    If I could just use my magic on my favorite things, this world would be full of fairies. I nodded because I also agreed with Tiara Rose.


    Forest, sky, sea - and the fairy of Tiara Rose.


    Aquastide came up with national flowers that bloomed all over the royal castle and the city.


    "Then... what about the flowers of Tiara Rose?" Those flowers are from Tiara''s flowers, and they''re just as natural as any other fairy. ¡±


    That''s good! That flower is so beautiful. "


    In that case, we''ll have to pour magic power into the flowers.


    Soon Lige and Keith agreed to Aquastide''s proposal. Tiara Rose also nodded that the fairy from the flowers would be extremely cute.


    Marine Forest Country - Tiara Rose Flowers.


    It''s a cute pink flower that blooms in a large ring based on the magical power of Tiara Rose.


    The petals are sweet, and the sugar is of the highest quality, a tiara rose-like flower. It''s beloved for making sweets and for viewing them.


    It was first managed and cherished in the gardens of the Imperial Castle, but now it can be seen throughout the Marine Forest.


    --You might meet a new fairy.


    It was for my own magic problems, but Tiara Rose''s chest was thrilling and exciting.

 192 12. Make a treat and settle down

    Based on the information obtained from the forest archives, we decided to create a new fairy by pouring magic power into the flowers of Tiara Rose.


    Tiara Rose gets a little nervous when she sees her potted Tiara Rose flowers in the room. "I wonder if it''ll work..."


    "Haha, I can''t believe I can witness the birth of a new fairy!" Me, me...! "


    "The flower fairy is definitely cute ~!"


    Olivia-sama!? Please calm down, Akari-sama.


    Seeing the two humming in front of the Tiara Rose flower makes me nervous.


    --You should relax your shoulders more.


    With a deep breath, Tiara Rose also sits beside the acorns and crouches in front of the flowers.


    The beautiful flowers of the Great Ring are beautiful whenever you see them.


    "...... I want to meet the fairy soon."


    "There''s one thing you can do when you''re a kid!" That''s right! "


    "Come on, come on," the acaricus pushed Tiara Rose''s back. It wasn''t magic when I pressed my back, but it seemed to be a mood problem.


    "It seems difficult to apply magic power to flowers... but... shouldn''t it be the same as when making sweets?"


    It was the same in that it had an object and could put magic power in it.


    When I put the magic power of the warm starry sky into the flower of Tiara Rose, I felt that my body was slightly lightened.


    ¨D ¨D The more! If you could pass magic power to the fairy on a daily basis like this, you wouldn''t be a cat.


    Pouring magic power into the flowers of Tiara Rose is the same as making sweets, so it''s not that difficult.


    Although the control of the great magic power didn''t work, the tension of the Tiara Rose was rising because it was going to work.


    You''re doing well, Tiara-sama!


    That''s right, senpai!


    Olivia is always on the lookout for the flow of magical power and more.


    I can put more and more magic power in you!


    "Go, Tiara-sama!"


    Even though it was exuberant.


    "No matter how much magic you pump in, nothing will happen..."


    It was good that the magic in my body had calmed down, but there was no sign of a fairy being born.


    Was it done in the wrong way, or was it simply because there was still not enough magic power and there was no response? I can''t make a decision and I''m in trouble.


    I was already supposed to be blessed by the Flower Fairy!


    "Master Akari, when was the last time you did something like that..."


    But since Olivia''s shoulders were jumping, she wanted the Flower Fairy to bless her.


    You two know how Tiara Rose feels. I''m glad that the fairy blessed me, and I''d be even more glad if I got along.


    "Aqua told me not to push too hard... let''s keep it that way for today."


    "That''s good." Magic is calming down now, so let''s do it again tomorrow. "


    Yeah.


    I checked Olivia''s schedule for the rest of the day and made sure she had a good break.


    It was difficult today, but I was relieved to hear that Aquastide would be present on the open day.


    "Ah, the sunset is beautiful-oh!"


    Akari-sama?


    "I wanted to go to Tiara-sama''s sweets shop!"


    I remember! and Acari claps her hands.


    While coming to the Royal Castle, I heard rumors about Tiara Rose''s Sweet Restaurant in various places. Every time I wanted to eat, I had no choice but to eat.


    Tiara Rose was worried about what was going on when she saw the acaricus that was sweeping her arms when she wanted to go.


    I don''t go to Tiara Rose every day, but I know the management of the store because they contact me every day. In a nutshell, the queues are full, and private rooms are booked.


    --Mr. Acari, it''s coming all of a sudden...


    I think Tiara Rose would have prepared a seat if she had at least contacted me.


    However, I would like to invite you because it is my own shop that I have managed to hold.


    As Tiara Rose thought about what to do, Levy suddenly appeared and said, ¡°Why don''t you do it after the store closes?¡± He gave me advice.


    Levi seemed to have a cup of tea for me.


    "I''ll arrange it if I can."


    ¡±... well then, let''s do you a favor¡±


    "Ah, I did it! I''m looking forward to it!"


    Tiara Rose nods to Levi''s suggestion, and Acari jumps and delights. You probably wanted to go to the store.


    However, since it is after the store closes, it is not very impossible for the pastry chefs - ah


    Seeing Tiara clap her hands, Akari and Olivia lean back. Levi seems to have already headed to the store and is gone.


    "If you don''t mind... can I make it?" It doesn''t work like a pastry chef you hire, but you can make the sweets you serve in the store. ¡±


    We''ve had a busy day lately, and we haven''t been able to make any sweets at all.


    I love eating tiara roses, but I also love making them. If you can make sweets, you can take a breath.


    "Of course I don''t mind!" I love Tiara-sama''s sweets! "


    Me too.


    When I heard you could both eat Tiara Rose sweets, I thought they were good.


    Well then, we need to make it with more pressure on our arms.


    Tiara Rose, Acari, and Olivia came to the fairy candy.


    During the day, the shop is full, but after it closes, I miss it somewhere.


    The shop was just finished cleaning up, and the staff exchanged greetings and went inside.


    Then, the shadows scattered in the store...


    - Yeah, what?


    Perhaps it was a thief or something, but Tiara Rose instantly found out who did it.


    It smells good ~!


    I want to eat sweets!


    Tiara wasn''t there the other day.


    Even though it was so annoying!


    On the table in the store, the forest fairies were having a pleasant conversation. Apparently, I want to eat some sweets.


    ¡°I''m surprised you''re here. Good morning.¡±


    Tiara ~!


    The fairies gleamed and gathered under the Tiara Rose.


    "Wow, it''s a fairy! It''s cute ~!"


    I know you''re a friend of Tiara''s, right?


    Yes, my best friend Akari!


    Even my best friend is amazing ~!


    Acari raised her tension and asked for a handshake to get along with the fairy.


    The Forest Fairy didn''t go out with many people, but she was a great friend of Tiara Rose''s, and she seemed to have been treated with some kind of friendliness.


    Olivia is disliked by the fairy because she is a villainous lady, so she watches her nose from a distance with a handkerchief.


    "...... Now. We need to make some more for the fairies, so we have to make it with our temper."


    I did it!


    Tiara Rose put on her apron and headed to the kitchen.


    This is a Tiara Rose shop, so you can use it freely. Even if you say you can - it gets in the way during business hours and during setups, so you can only use it at night.


    Moreover, now that I''m alert, I become a cat, so I want to be able to make sweets while I''m human.


    - I wonder what I''m going to make.


    Cakes, macaroons, cream shoes, baked goods? There are so many things I want to make, I get lost.


    "But I''m really using the kitchen... maybe I can try something a little more extravagant."


    The shop offers a course of sweets.


    As expected, I can''t prepare a full sweets course right now, but I can prepare a few simple things.


    "Cake, baked goods... and a gorgeous parfait!"


    If you add chocolate craftsmanship, it becomes an art that you don''t want to break.


    When I was making sweets in a tiara rose mood, I was called "Tiara." Aquastide stood at the entrance of the kitchen.


    Aqua!


    "Levi told me you were here." After work, I came. "


    ¡°Thank you for your hard work. Please, sit down.¡±


    "Thank you."


    Tiara Rose suggests a simple round chair to Aquastide and talks about what happened today.


    ¡±I was able to pour magic power into the flowers, but when I was told that I could become a fairy...¡±


    "Without precedent, I don''t even know how much I need it..."


    Aquastide worries and thinks the same way.


    ¨D ¨D It''s so comforting just saying that Aqua is with you.


    Happiness makes your chest feel warmer. Making sweets is also moody.


    --That''s right, there''s a lot of starry sky magic right now... maybe we can make some more amazing sweets than usual!


    Tiara Rose usually uses her magic power when making sweets, and she can benefit from health recovery and physical abilities.


    Even if I had less magic power, I could do just that, so if I used the magic power of the starry sky... how amazing an effect can I get?


    --Maybe you''ll get sick or catch a cold.


    I used my magic while thinking about what I was doing.


    What I''m making right now is a shortcake full of eel. Because the sponge is baked, I am making fresh cream now.


    ¡±Here, I''m mixing the magic of the starry sky...¡±


    Mix until the horn stands, then decorate when the sponge is burnt. The sponge is filled with koji mousse, and there is a lot of koji and chocolate work on the top.


    Finally, with plenty of magic power, the Tiara Rose Koji Cake was completed.


    Alright, you can do it well--


    --That was great.


    Before I could say that, something unexpected happened in front of Tiara Rose. What should I say about this phenomenon?


    Aquastide also opened his eyes and got up from his chair and came next to Tiara Rose.


    The stars overflowed from the finished cake.


    "Nhhh, it smells good."


    The big open eyes shine with flowers, and a pastry chef''s hat with a patch of bamboo on the top of its head. A honey pink tie is tied around the chest.


    A new fairy born from a Tiara Rose treat.

 193 13. Confectionery Fairy

    --I certainly poured a lot of magic power into the starry sky...


    I had no idea that a fairy could be born from a shortcake I made.


    A confectionary fairy from Tiara Rose''s confectionery.


    A cute pastry chef''s uniform with the image of a shortcake in the eyes of a light blue flower. Just looking at it is adorable, and I have a confectionery tool in my hand.


    Tiara Rose looks at Aquastide''s face, her cheeks loose in the sweetness of a fairy.


    "Hello, fairy. I''m Tiara Rose."


    "I am Aquastide."


    When the two of them introduced themselves, the fairy made a cookie for Shuba Baba to show her. Tiara Rose''s eyes dotted the line too early in the day.


    Here''s a sweet token of your proximity!


    "Thank you."


    What I got from the fairy was a cookie with jam in the middle.


    When you are thrilled, the gentle sweetness spreads all over your mouth. And the sweet and sour taste of the mackerel tightens the overall taste.


    Crispy cookies, plus handmade fairy cookies. It wasn''t Olivia, but Tiara Rose felt like she was rising from the sky.


    "This is delicious..."


    "You can eat as much as you want."


    How about a simple taste of cookies that are easy to eat for both men and women? It feels nostalgic and stings.


    I''m glad you like it!


    As the fairy laughed, a blessing flashed down on Tiara Rose and Aquastide. It looked like the candy fairy gave me a blessing.


    Thank you very much.


    "I didn''t expect you to bless me... thank you"


    With my blessing, you will be good at making sweets.


    "That''s nice."


    In response to the fairy''s words, Tiara Rose replied overeating.


    When this fairy begins to exist in the Marine Forest...


    The Marine Forest may well be called the country of sweets. Oh my God, Tiara Rose keeps thinking.


    Whatever it is, I would be glad if all sweets lovers could get along with the Confectionery Fairy.


    After eating the cookies, Acari and Olivia came from the store.


    "Tiara-sama, did something happen?!"


    "Eh, that little girl... fairy!?"


    The two peeking faces were surprised at the sudden appearance of the fairy.


    That''s because the acorns thought that a new fairy would emerge from the flowers. I can''t believe it was born in a Tiara Rose shop.


    Immediately, Olivia was in a hurry and fell to her knees on the floor.


    "I see you at the beginning, new fairy." My name is Olivia Ariadel. "


    Ahh, yeah...


    The fairy was slightly drawn.


    "Yes, yes! I am Akari!" You''re lucky to see a new fairy with your own eyes! "


    Thank you for that.


    Olivia and Akari bowed their greetings, and the Confectionery Fairy gave both of them cookies. Blessings were then sent down, just like in the case of Tiara Rose.


    Akari said, "I did it! Bless you!" Olivia is stiff with joy.


    "Lord Olivia...? Ah, I''m sure Lord Olivia... hasn''t been blessed by any fairy before..."


    Therefore, even though I was a confectionary fairy, I was very happy that you blessed me - and I think I became a capa-over.


    It moves like a broken machine.


    The confectionery fairy looked around the kitchen and said, "Nice place."


    By the way... where''s the king?


    Huh?


    Where are you? Tiara Rose was impatient with such a fairy. Only the shortcake fairy in front of me was born, and I didn''t see any other fairy.


    "Um......"


    Isn''t there a king?


    I''d rather say that you thought you were the king, but then you realize that your eyes are not golden.


    - And the king is human-sized?


    Thinking like this, Tiara Rose thought that the king was overflowing with unknown people. Maybe I should have talked to Keith more.


    Acorns flashed beside Tiara Rose.


    Since you were born from Tiara-sama''s sweets, isn''t Tiara-sama the king?


    I see!


    "Please wait!?"


    Tiara Rose makes a stop if she doesn''t make a person the fairy king of sweets on her own.


    I didn''t realize that I was a fairy king in the first place, and I just wanted to be a human. It''s hard to think of becoming a Fairy King without realizing it.


    "I thought it was a nice idea."


    The acaricus puffs up my cheeks and complains, but I can''t say yes to it.


    "For the time being... I''ll think about the Fairy King of Confectionery later, so maybe we should check to see if we can pass on Tiara''s magic power first"


    Ah, that''s right.


    Magic power?


    The fairy said, "What? ''I leaned my neck and looked over here.


    ¡±Actually, I have the magic power of the starry sky inside me... but it''s too big to control well¡±


    I''ll take that! I''ll take care of it!


    "Thank you."


    I got more permission than I thought, so I decided to pass on some magic power.


    Please take your souvenir ~


    Tiara Rose puts her fingertips on top of the fairy''s small hand.


    Then, I felt the magic inside me shifting to the fairy. It was a bit different from when I was pouring magic power into the flowers of Tiara Rose.


    - Awesome!


    With this, you can take out a considerable amount of the starry sky''s magic that you''ve been accumulating all along.


    Soon, the magic power inside the Tiara Rose was reduced. In terms of experience, is it the same as before Lucia Rose was born?


    What do you say?


    "Awesome. My body is getting lighter and my magic is getting easier to handle... I feel that way."


    I''m glad ~


    Maybe you can become a cat or a human on your own.


    I was anxious about not knowing when it would change, but it''s not the case if I can control it myself.


    ¡±With an image of magic power spreading all over my body... eek!¡±


    "--Oh!?"


    Wow!


    When the Tiara Rose becomes a cat, the Aquastids will see more cancer than ever before. I have become a cat many times, but I still feel restless.


    Fufu, what do you think? I think I got out pretty well. - Oh? "


    Tiara-sama talked!


    "I''ve spoken... but Master Acari, there''s something even more surprising about you!"


    Eh?


    Other than being free to become a cat, nothing surprised me about Tiara Rose.


    I don''t have any strange feeling about my body, and there is nothing strange about my body.


    Aquastide hugged Tiara Rose as she looked strange.


    Aquastide''s golden eyes shifted to Tiara Rose''s.


    ¡±Tiara''s eyes... are turning golden¡±


    Eh!?


    When I was a human, I had the usual light blue eyes, but as soon as I became a cat, Tiara Rose''s eyes changed the color to gold.


    Tiara Rose returns to her human form in a hurry as she becomes somewhat frightened of what she has been told. The human pupils returned to their original state are the same color as before.


    "Aqua, I...!"


    Tiara Rose was dumbfounded and was in a hurry to figure out what to do.


    "It''s okay, Tiara. Just calm down?"


    "Ah... I''m sorry, I''m sorry."


    Aquastide took my hand and pulled me gently. I was given a light kiss on my temple and I managed to calm down.


    When Tiara turns into a cat, she''s like a fairy king of sweets.


    It''s so nice to be the king of sweets, isn''t it?


    "I was giving up because I was a villainous daughter, but maybe you can bless me with a fairy king of sweets..."


    Both Akari and Olivia didn''t seem impatient to see Tiara Rose become the Fairy King of Confectionery. Rather, come on! and so on.


    The confectionary fairy sits tightly on Tiara Rose''s head.


    Isn''t that the king''s face anymore? Even though I want to be with you more ~! "


    I felt a sense of guilt at the pesky fairy.


    But if Tiara Rose really became the Fairy King of sweets... I don''t know what to do.


    --I want you to take back the magic power, so I want to do what I can...


    What can I do?


    "Fairy, do you have something you want me to do...?"


    There''s more! I want more confectioner fairies to be born!


    "Ehhh!?"


    What do you think Tiara Rose means by such a serious plea?


    "A fairy was born?... oh, so you''re making sweets?"


    Pin Ponzo Street!


    If it''s a big win, the fairy will give you a big round of applause.


    This child is born from a shortcake, and other fairies are also born from Tiara Rose''s magic sweets.


    Then we''ll have to put more pressure on our arms.


    Tiara Rose clenched her fist and grabbed her temper.


    "I''ll help you too." Tiara, it''s tough being alone, isn''t it? "


    "Yes! I''ll help you too!"


    "Unfortunately, I will also help you." After all, I just got a blessing from the candy fairy, and sweets should be easy to make!! "


    I''ll do my best too ~!


    Aquastide, Acari, Olivia, and the Confectionery Fairy all started making sweets.


    From simple treats such as cookies to cakes such as Zachtorte. I also made macaroons and cream puffs, and I also made the jumbo parfait that I was planning to make earlier.


    Then, because the magic of the starry sky was properly mixed, the stars overflowed from the sweets and the fairies were born.


    Each of them wears a pastry chef''s hat, but the one-point patch seems to be the pattern and material of the sweets that are born.


    The confectionery fairies happily ran around the kitchen and said, "This is the best environment! ''and shouting.


    Thus, a new fairy was born in the Marine Forest.

 194 14. Be loved, loved and happy

    The birth of a new fairy in the Marine Forest spread to the people at once. Because the confectionery fairies went to the city and blessed the confectionery people.


    The adorable fairy in the shape of a pastry chef was immediately accepted, and the sight of humans and fairies making sweets together became commonplace.


    Speaking of tiara roses, I regularly handed out the magic power of the starry sky to the confectionery fairy, so the magic power was stable. As a result, humans and cats can freely change their appearance.


    Incidentally, the magic of the starry sky is a delightful cycle of tiara roses and fairy sweets that are used to make sweets.


    Recently, my favorite thing to do is to sit on Aquastide''s lap in the shape of a cat and let him spoil me.


    Tiara, can I brush?


    Yaya


    Nodding to Aquastide''s question, the cat''s tiara rose rolls onto the sofa. Brushing feels good, so I want you to keep brushing.


    Gentle, but while brushing a little vigorously, it''s fine - there''s actually one problem.


    Tiara Rose''s ears twitched as she heard footsteps.


    - Here it comes!


    Mother ~!


    It was Lucia Rose who opened the door of the room and came in. She''s also a cat tiara rose lover.


    Her big eyes sparkled as she wanted to cuddle a white but fuzzy cat.


    By the way, when I was asked to brush, it was obviously strong and it was hard to keep quiet.


    So, before anything happens, Tiara Rose goes from herself to Lucia Rose. Then he smiles with a smile on his face, apparently happy.


    "Mom, wow!" I''ll be a knight and protect you! "


    You''re very reliable, Lucia.


    "Ehehe"


    In light of Tiara Rose''s words, Lucia Rose shows her swinging sword technique. Because I usually watched the Knights train, it was amazing.


    ¨D ¨D We need to think about Lucia''s future.


    Not without a female knight, but I''ve never heard of a princess knight. I have no intention of opposing it, but I''m sure it will be a tough journey.


    Looking at Lucia Rose''s aerial sword technique, she heard a rattling sound again. It looks like an adult this time.


    - I wonder if it''s acarid.


    When it comes to running adults, I can''t think of anything but acorns.


    Or maybe there''s an emergency when Elliot or the Knight comes in.


    When everyone turned towards the door, they heard a voice that sounded like an argument with a knight on the lookout that was different from what they expected.


    ¡°That''s why I want to see Tiara and Aqua right away!¡±


    ¡°We haven''t heard from you about your visit, and we don''t know your identity. I''m sorry, but you''ll be accompanying me.¡±


    "I see..."


    - Aren''t you an acarid?


    One way or another, a high, cute voice.


    I wanted to get into the room, but the knight stopped me. Tarumo should be standing outside right now, so it doesn''t look like someone close to Tiara Rose is visiting.


    Tiara Rose returns to her human form and sits back on the sofa.


    Leave it to the knight and he''ll take care of it.


    So don''t worry about it, and Aquastide will tell you later.


    Even as a tiara rose, it''s common, but the voice that came from outside the door was something I''d heard somewhere... it bothered my head.


    "That''s true, but that voice... feels a bit uncomfortable... ah!" Isn''t that Lilia-sama''s voice? "


    Lady Lilliage''s?


    When I was told, I felt something different, but I also thought it was Liliage''s voice.


    I''ll check it out, so Tiara can sit down.


    Yes.


    When Aquastide went to the door to check, he said, "Aqua!" Soon a cheerful voice returned. Together, Fel¨¦s said, "Thank you."


    I knew it was Lilia-sama after all.


    Bunny!


    "...... Master Lilia, Lucia"


    Lilia-sama!


    That''s right, you''re good at it.


    When Lyria''s name is praised, Lucia Rose hesitates.


    Let''s say hello.


    Yes!


    As Tiara and Lucia rose from the sofa, Aquastide and the others came into the room.


    But there was a girl there that I didn''t know.


    ¡­¡­


    It''s probably the first time I''ve met you because you''re someone I can''t remember.


    However, when she saw Tiara Rose, she rushed towards me with a gleaming expression.


    "Tiara...!"


    "Eh...!?"


    She hugged Tiara Rose, who seemed to be impressed. Girl with dark hair, a little taller than Tiara Rose.


    When I looked at the door, Aquastide and Ferrez laughed happily together.


    "Um...... Geez...?"


    Then the answer came back from the girl who was hugging me.


    It''s me, Tiara!


    "That voice... eh, Lilia-sama!?"


    Yes!


    That''s right, Lilliage, who had an extraordinary smile on her face.


    A long black hair with thick eyes and a thick natural perm. The purple dress is laced up and softens her impression.


    "When I woke up from my nap, I was somehow back in human form!" So I rushed to see Tiara with Ferrez. "


    Liguria explains to me a lot of things.


    Lilliage tells me that she has returned to her human form probably because Tiara Rose has made a confectionary fairy and has been able to successfully adjust her magic power by passing on the magic power of the starry sky.


    Tiara Rose''s Starry Sky Ring also serves to stabilize the power of Lige and Ferrez. As a result, the Liriage was as stable as the Tiara Rose.


    "I''ve already given up returning to humans." And yet, such a miracle... thank you, Tiara. You are my benefactor. "


    "... Dear Lige,"


    I watched tears float in my beautiful eyes like a jewel in Liguria, and Tiara Rose''s eyes were dizzy.


    I''ve always been a monster, and when it was sealed in the basement, I couldn''t even talk to the people I loved - I''ve been lonely all this time.


    It would be a great pleasure to be able to come into contact with human beings as they should be.


    When they settled down with the tea, the Tiara Roses began to recheck rather than talk about the confectioner''s fairy.


    "With the birth of the Confectionery Fairy, the magic of the four of us is very stable." If Tiara Rose hadn''t forgotten to give her magic power, there would have been almost no problem. ¡±


    Yes.


    Tiara Rose nodded to Ferres'' words.


    The number of fairy treats is small, but if you''re going to make sweets from now on... the number will increase soon.


    Even now, the sweets fairy is relaxing by the window of the room while eating cookies.


    It''s okay, if the king forgot, I''ll come!


    Magic is important for making sweets


    The confectionery fairy seems to have a high tension and is shaking a lot of confectionery tools. I wonder if you could bring me some wooden bevels to harvest the magic power? It''s kind of cute when you think about it.


    "Thank you, it''s very helpful." but..... "


    Tiara Rose watched the fairy as she grew gentle.


    "I don''t want you to call me king..."


    Yeah......


    As expected, he cannot be called "king ~!" in front of many people.


    He is also the queen of the king, Aquastide, which confuses the people. Besides, Tiara Rose herself is not very aware of herself as a king.


    --If I were a cat, my eyes would be golden... but now it''s the usual light blue.


    Tiara Rose explained why, and the fairies agreed, albeit with some booing.


    But when you''re a cat, you''re really a king, so I''ll call you a king!


    This is unacceptable!!


    The cat Tiara is our king!


    The confectionery fairy pointed at me with her confectionery tools.


    "Alright, well, that''s about it..."


    As long as you''re called the king in the form of a cat, there won''t be any strange rumors circulating around you.


    When Tiara Rose accepted, the fairies danced, "I did it!" It would be nice to have our own king after all.


    Next, Ferres opened his mouth.


    ¡°We''re going to stay here for a couple of months and then travel to Marine Forest and the surrounding countries.¡±


    I want to stay for a while to see if the power of the Starry King will continue to stabilize properly... I want to interact with the children of Tiara Rose and Aquastide.


    Grandpa and grandpa who love their grandchildren.


    What a sight to be seen by the first king.


    Really? I''m so proud of you.


    I want to see a lot more things, and Ferres tells me that he is looking forward to the development of the country in the future.


    "And... we came back because we wanted to see how they were."


    It took years to see how the Starry King''s magical powers worked on Tiara Rose and Aquastide.


    As a result, Aquastide''s magic power grew stronger and stronger as he became the Starry King. Your physical abilities should also be considerably longer than before.


    Since Tiara Rose only receives magic power from Aquastide through the Starry King''s ring, it doesn''t change anything, but the phenomenon of becoming a cat happened.


    But the biggest change was that they weren''t old.


    "As you can see when you look at me and Lilia, the power of the starry sky easily deviates from the human reason. However, because we haven''t tried it, we don''t know if there is a death."


    Are you immortal, or are you just immortal?


    I''m sure you''re lucky you don''t have to try it.


    Is it terrible?


    Tiara Rose replied to Ferrez''s quietly spun words.


    "No, I am the queen of the Marine Forest." When I decided to stand next to Aqua, I was almost ready to be a royalty. ¡±


    "... that''s right."


    Ferrez smiles at the straightforward words of Tiara Rose.


    Tiara Rose had previously expressed her readiness when she met with Ferres. It is still in the heart, without shaking.


    Lige takes the hand of Tiara Rose and says thank you.


    ¡°I can only thank Ferres for loving the country he built.¡±


    "Thank you for a nice country, Master Lilia." Your Highness Ferres. "


    "Tiara...!"


    Tiara Rose laughs as she hugs Lillie as she jumps over. Lige''s habit of being a little monster hasn''t gone away yet, and her body seems to jump first.


    But Tiara Rose thought she was warm and loving.

 195 15. Build a Sweet Castle!

    "Ahhh!"


    Hulka stretches out her hands as she gets caught up in the sweet smell.


    What I''m trying to grab is a lot of sweets in front of me. Halka, two years old, already knows the delicious taste of sweets.


    Akari holds such a harka back.


    No, it''s going to be your fairy house.


    Akari and Halka are in the city, close to the Royal Castle.


    Right now, I''m building a sweet fairy residence here.


    Each fairy king has his own home. Keith is the castle in the woods, Claire is the temple in the sky, and Pearl is the palace in the sea.


    The home of the confectionery fairy is a confectionery house in a city full of confectionery.


    The ingredients for making a home of sweets are, of course, sweets.


    Cookie bricks on chocolate doors. The pillars are plitzed, and the lighting decorations are polished.


    Although it is made so that it can be eaten, it is not delicious honestly because it prioritizes aspects such as strength... Tiara Rose said.


    This confectionery house was designed by Tiara Rose, who directs the construction.


    The fairies who make and assemble sweets quickly, and the large number of pastry chefs and people who want to help me make sweets.


    The confectionery house is gradually being built with the help of a large number of people.


    --But I know very well what it feels like to want to eat!


    To be honest, the confectionery house looks very delicious.


    "Isn''t that what a fairy eats!?"


    If you take a closer look, the confectionery fairy who made the confectionery house herself [Wow, that looks delicious! ''Isn''t that what you''re moaning about?


    I ate it and repaired it immediately, but every time I said, "This may be more delicious! ''It''s amazing that it has been improved over and over again.


    "... but you can''t get in the way." Let Tiara make the sweets we eat. ¡±


    Ahh!


    Akari kissed Haruka''s forehead and returned to the royal castle.


    "My name is Lucia Rose!" Knight of the Marine Forest! Hey! "


    "Uuu, I''ve been hit......"


    As Lucia Rose swung her toy sword, Levi fell to pieces. Knights got him. Bad guys.


    I was just playing with Lucia Rose as a knight, but Lucia Rose was scared when I saw Levi falling with white eyes. You''re overdoing it.


    Olivia plays with Shtilka and Shtilio in a toy on the immediate lawn.


    "Haha ~, you two are such good kids!" That''s right, Master Tiara Rose and His Majesty''s child Aquastide! "


    Looking at the two of them rolling the ball quietly, Olivia felt like she was going to go up to the sky.


    "Olivia, let''s take a break. I''ll be ready for tea time.¡±


    "Yes, please."


    While Levi was getting ready, Olivia washed the children''s hands and moved to the tea table.


    Olivia looked up at the sky and took a breath.


    I wonder if Tiara Rose is making sweets right now.


    I thought it was fun, but Levi brought a little sweet home with his tea. Looks like you made it.


    Wow, sweet home!


    "Thank you, Levy."


    ¡°Olivia''s butler, so that''s all that matters.¡±


    The confectionery houses made of cookies and chocolate were so cute that they were very popular with Lucia Rose, Shtilka and Shtilio.


    Tiara Rose held her head to the fairies of sweets that she repeatedly made and ate.


    ¡±No, the sweets are tasty every time... so this is definitely a good thing¡±


    Even if the completion of the sweets house is too far away.


    By the way, the sweets fairies are sleeping in Tiara Rose''s room until the house is finished.


    Nh ~ the chocolate on the wall is delicious!


    This window sill might taste like cocoa!


    That''s nice!


    The confectionery fairy knows or does not know Tiara Rose''s hardships, and she is eating the confectionery house as she desires.


    This is going to take a while to complete.


    "Aqua... I''m sorry you''ve made such a great effort to get a nice piece of land ready for the city"


    "You don''t have to worry about that. If there were fairies living in the city, it would make people lively.¡±


    That''s why Aquastide smiles when he says that it''s okay to slow down without hurrying to finish the candy house.


    Thank you very much.


    - That''s right, it''s a nice place to stay.


    However, even if it''s finished, even if I eat it, I can make it over and over again...


    "... but wait."


    Tiara?


    "I''m sure they''ll finish it, eat it and make it over and over again..."


    Hearing the words of Tiara Rose, Aquastide thought it was undeniable. But it was a fairy, including that kind of freedom.


    However, Tiara Rose''s thoughts were different from Aquastide''s.


    "In other words, this sweet home is always cutting-edge in sweets...!? The fairies are good at making sweets, and they go to various people to make sweets together..."


    Even though it''s a newborn confectioner''s fairy, her knowledge of confectionery and her skills are exploding as she gets involved with many people.


    Tiara Rose, who had come to that fact, was even more excited about the confectionery house. And if possible, I''d like to come and eat like every day...


    The confectionery house was left to the fairies, and Tiara Rose and Aquastide returned to the Royal Castle. The children are still being looked after by Olivia.


    There was a sweet fairy resting in Tiara Rose''s room, so she came to Aquastide''s room.


    "I''ll make you some tea. Sit down."


    "Then I ''ll--"


    "Don''t worry. Tiara is tired from the confectionery house, so take your time."


    Since I was made to sit on the sofa without asking questions, Tiara Rose decided to be quiet and sweet.


    ¨D ¨D It''s been a long time since I''ve been in Aqua''s room.


    I usually stay in the Tiara Rose room, so I don''t get much chance to enter the Aquastide room.


    The Tiara Rose room has lots of toys for the kids, but the Aquastide room is tidy and simple.


    It''s like an adult male room... and even though she''s a husband, she''s more excited than usual.


    "Please wait."


    Thank you very much.


    Drink Aquastide''s brewed black tea and relax your shoulders.


    "Aqua... thank you for everything."


    Yeah?


    "... the fact that I became a cat, and my schedule of official business at that time." And the confectionery fairies. "


    Aquastide helped me a lot this time.


    Tiara Rose wanted to say thank you, but that''s natural for Aquastide, so you don''t need to thank her.


    Rather than.


    One way or another, all the causes are the magic of the starry sky¡­ I should apologize.


    ¡°No! It''s not Aqua''s fault!!¡±


    Aquastide laughed at Tiara Rose, who had been totally arguing.


    Then there''s nothing to blame for Tiara.


    "Ah....."


    I couldn''t argue with Aquastide''s return.


    "It''s just... I was in a hurry this time."


    Huh?


    "There was a precedent that I would become a monster without Master Lilliage''s consciousness." I thought about it in front of Tiara, but I didn''t feel like it. "


    Aquastide leaned his head against Tiara Rose''s shoulder because he felt relieved after speaking straight.


    That''s why Aquastide told me that he was just laughing next to me and that he was happy and happy.


    --Aqua thought about the possibility of becoming a monster as soon as I became a cat.


    More than anyone else, he was thinking about Tiara Rose than himself.


    It was early in the morning and late at night... all for Tiara Rose. When I think back, I can''t help but think of Aquastide.


    Tiara Rose hugged Aquastide as she leaned forward.


    ¡°Thank you for your time, Aqua. Even though I''m talking about myself... I didn''t have enough crisis management."


    Next to Aquastide, it feels like it''s wrapped in pure cotton. Tiara Rose will always gently help you before she realizes it.


    "Never mind, I''ve decided to protect Tiara." Rather, it would be nice if you''d let me off my guard. "


    Smiling and grinning, Aquastide lifted Tiara Rose''s forehead with his fingertips and dropped a kiss on her revealed forehead.


    She touched her nose, temples and cheeks and finally reached her lips.


    As Tiara Rose relaxed her body, she was easily pushed down onto the sofa.


    "Nh......"


    She extended her arms and hugged Aquastide''s back, accepting the kiss. A gentle kiss increases in depth and becomes sweeter.


    ¡±Aku, nnh¡±


    "... I''m sorry, I don''t think I can afford to talk to you"


    "--Oh!"


    Aquastide uttered words as his lips moved apart, but close enough to touch, and something dull ran through Tiara Rose''s body.


    The thin golden eyes of Aquastide and his heart beat faster and faster.


    Tiara Rose remembers that she may not have had as much time to slow down as usual, as she has become a cat lately and acorns visit her.


    The cat Tiara is also cute, but I can''t do this.


    Y-yeah, that''s it, nnhh


    Tiara Rose tried to argue with embarrassment, but Aquastide blocked her mouth again.


    I really don''t like talking.


    --- Aqua is about to eat you all.


    However, I was looking for the opponent.


    Tiara Rose hugged Aquastide hard and responded with a deep kiss.

 196 1. The King

    Spring is over and summer is coming. It''s easy to spend such an early summer. The Marine Forest Kingdom became a more vibrant country with more confectionery fairies.


    The clear blue of the sky and the deep blue of the sea with horizontal lines can be seen. The greenery of the trees that grow in a variety of lights in the forest heals people, and the sweets house in the center of the king''s capital is exciting to the people.


    "... even though you thought it was finished, you ate it again."


    The Queen of the Land, Tiara Rose, mumbled when she saw the city from her room in the Imperial Castle. At the end of his gaze, the sweets house where the roof part was eaten...


    This confectionery house is the castle of the Fairy King of Confectionery - the home of the Tiara Rose, who became the Fairy King of Confectionery.


    The confectionery fairies are making it all the time, but as soon as it''s done, it''s like, "Looks delicious! ''I''ll eat it, so it''s hard... no, it can''t be done forever.


    Well then, if it rains, it''s a disaster.


    Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest is a delightful view of the confectionery house.


    Fluffy honey pink hair and puffy light blue eyes.


    She is wearing a white light blue lace dress with flowers on the waist. Many daughters admire Tiara Rose for her appearance and style.


    In some cases, Aquastide, the starry sky king, could not control his magic power and became a monster, but by giving magic power to the confectionery fairy, he was able to use his power successfully. Now I have peaceful days.


    And only a handful of people know that Tiara Rose was reincarnated as the Villain''s Lady in the sequel to the maiden game Lapis Lazuli Ring.


    Looking at how the roof could be built from afar, the sound of a knock echoed in the room along with the voice "It''s Olivia."


    Here you go.


    "Excuse me."


    As soon as Tiara Rose gave her permission to enter, Olivia arrived to press the wagon with the tea set and sweets on it. Behind them was Lucia Rose, who was holding hands with Aquastide. Behind them was Levi, who was holding hands with Shtilka and Shtilio.


    Tiara Rose unexpectedly laughs at the procession.


    We''re all here.


    Your Majesty Aquastide seems to have lost a lot of work, so I wanted to spend some tea time with you.


    Olivia nodded with a smile at Tiara Rose''s question, and Aquastide told me how it happened.


    "Lucia''s training is over." Besides, Luca and Rio just got up from a nap, so I brought them here. It was already time for tea. "


    Aquastide Marine Forest is looking forward to tea time with the family.


    Dark blue hair and golden eyes showing the king. She looks at her family with a gentle look on her face, and she is a gentle husband and a good father.


    I finish my work early and spend as much time as possible with Tiara Rose and the children.


    Mother!


    Lucia Rose ran and jumped into the Tiara Rose dress. I caught it and stroked my head.


    Then Shtilka and Shtilio came under the Tiara Rose, ¡°as is.¡±


    Tiara Rose crouched down and stroked Shtilka and Shtilio''s head, smiling, ¡°Let''s make a snack.¡±


    Lucia Rose Marine Forest, a princess with a habit of becoming a knight!


    Dark pink hair and golden honey pink eyes. The hair is made into dumplings on both sides and decorated with ribbons.


    She''s a very good driver, climbing trees and flirting with talmos.


    Twin brother, Shtirka Marine Forest.


    She has ash pink hair, golden eyes on the right and light blue odd eyes on the left. The twins with golden eyes as proof of the king, Shtilka has the magic power of the moon.


    There was a lot of magic power, and I had a bracelet on my left arm to control it.


    The twin brother, Shtirio Marine Forest.


    She has ash blue hair, a light blue eye on her right eye and a golden odd eye on her left eye. Shtirio has the magic of the sun and the twins are good friends with each other.


    Like Shtilka, she had a magic bracelet on her right arm.


    "Hahaaa ~, the Villain''s Lady and her family who have achieved happiness... it''s exactly a painting!" This sight is already a national treasure!! "


    "Olivia, give me your handkerchief."


    Thank you, Levy.


    Olivia, who was watching the Tiara Roses, stopped her hand preparing the tea set and knelt down. I''m on the verge of hyperventilation.


    The handkerchief that Levi put on Olivia''s nose was stained with blood.


    Olivia Ariadel loves the maiden game Lapis Lazuli Ring too much.


    Rose red hair with glowing honey green eyes. She was wearing a dress with a deep red background and Date glasses.


    Everything in this world is recommended, and I''m in the middle of singing happy days. Even if the arousal does not reach its peak, it has a constitution that causes nosebleeds.


    Now she is the maid of Tiara Rose in place of Filine, who is on maternity leave.


    Olivia''s nosebleed predicted 100% butler, Levi.


    Rose red eyes with black hair and the same color as Olivia''s hair. The butler is elegantly dressed in clothes and has a number of handkerchiefs in his pocket.


    Tiara Rose smiles bitterly when she sees Olivia bleeding from her nose and Levi processing it.... well, I''m used to it.


    "Today we prepared the bell castella." Now that we''ve made it small, we can serve Shtilka and Shtilio as well. ¡±


    I''ve tasted it, but it''s delicious.


    Levi lays out a plate with Castella bells on it, and Olivia smacks her cheeks as she brews tea. Apparently, Levi made the snack for today.


    Lucia Rose sits on the sofa and immediately eats Castella bells. To this delicious taste, she leans her hands against her cheeks with a "nhhh" voice.


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide sit next to each other on the sofa, while Lucia Rose, Shtilka and Shtilio sit across from each other.


    Olivia sits on a sofa that seats one, and Levi is in charge of the waiter. Even though I''m a maid, I often make tea together like this.


    Shtilka and Shtilio took the bell castella with their own hands and carried it to their mouths.


    You ate well, didn''t you?


    Oi!


    Stirka and Stirlio, who smiled slightly, seemed to like Castella on the bell. I also see Levi with glittering eyes.


    --The power of sweets is great after all...!


    Exactly the children of Tiara Rose who love sweets. Everyone seems to love sweets. I''m sure you''ll like sweets in the future.


    Olivia took out her notebook and called out to Tiara Rose as she relaxed with her tea.


    "It''s Tiara Rose''s schedule, but I can make time after three days." I also checked with Elliot, so I have no problem with His Majesty Aquastide''s plans. ¡±


    "Really? Thank you, Olivia."


    You were supposed to go to Keith.


    Yes.


    Aquastide also understood, so he nodded to Olivia''s words.


    I''m going to ask Keith, the Fairy King, if he has a role to play in making Tiara Rose the Fairy King of Confectionery.


    Usually, Tiara Rose''s pupils were light blue, but when she became a beast-cat, her pupils turned golden.


    "I''m sorry to ask Keith, but..."


    Aquastide, who said he was slightly unhappy, exclaimed that Tiara Rose was "so-so."


    Aquastide, why don''t you go ask Claire or Pearl? I guess you think so.


    "It''s Keith and Pearl who are blessing me." Besides, Keith''s castle has a library, right? If anything happened, I could look into it, and I thought it would be just fine. "


    "... that''s right. I don''t want to bother Tiara with my selfishness."


    Without a choice, Aquastide entangles his fingers in Tiara Rose''s hair.


    When Lucia Rose saw it, she said, "Me too!" He stepped off the sofa and came under the Tiara Rose.


    "Mother''s hair, fluffy!"


    It seems that Lucia Rose loves Tiara Rose''s hair. Because Lucia Rose''s hair is similar to Aquastide or straight, it seems that she only has a little longing for fluffy hair.


    Lucia Rose is holding Tiara Rose''s hair in her hand and trying to knit it into three pieces. However, it is not done well, either because it is clumsy or because it is a five-year-old child.


    "Nhh, I can''t"


    Tiara Rose shows Lucia Rose that she can do it after practicing.


    Not only Lucia Rose but also Aquastide looks interesting as she slowly knits three pieces... it''s hard to do.


    "Aqua, I''ve seen too much. I''m not that good either, am I?"


    That''s right? I''m pretty good at it, though.


    Not only Lucia Rose, but also Shtilka and Shtilio came and touched Tiara Rose''s hair.


    Since the twins are so small, they can''t even tie their hair yet, but it seems fun to just play with them. "Fluffy ~" with a smile on his face, and he was playing with Lucia Rose.


    Olivia was enjoying the family reunion with her handkerchief on her nose.


    To learn first, Tiara Rose and Aquastide arrived at Keith''s Castle in the mountains behind the Royal Castle.


    There are many rare plants in Keith''s Castle that will keep you entertained. The fairies in the forest water Jouro and take care of him in a hurry.


    Noticing the arrival of the Tiara Rose, the forest fairies said, "We must welcome you! ''He prepared a forest treat for me.


    Do you want to know what the Fairy King does?


    "I don''t know anything about the Fairy King..."


    I don''t know if Tiara Rose is the fairy king of sweets, but I don''t know what I have to do... I talked to Keith.


    I really wish there was literature or something in the library of the Imperial Castle, but there''s no such thing as a fairy king''s work.


    I can''t help it, I''ll tell you.


    Thank you, Keith.


    Keith, the fairy king of the forest, had a pleasant expression on his face.


    Dark green hair that is long to the waist, and golden eyes that are a testament to the king. He fans his hips and wears relatively loose clothes.


    Fairy kings who celebrate Tiara Rose often make a lot of trouble.


    Sitting on the flower sofa, Keith thought, "What happened..."


    Tiara Rose remembers what Keith usually does as she watches. Would you have done something as a fairy king?


    --This doesn''t seem to have anything in particular...


    I can''t imagine where Keith is working because he spends his time freely.


    If you''re strong enough, maybe you should teach the forest fairies how to take care of plants... or something like that.


    "Oh, yeah, I need that."


    Huh?


    In response to Keith''s words, Tiara Rose and Aquastide looked at each other. Looks like we need something.


    Keith glanced at Aquastide and continued to say, ¡°Okay.¡±


    "I need the Fairy King''s ring of sweets."

 197 2. Managing the Forest Library Fairy

    Keith''s words made Tiara Rose happy.


    - Yes, the fairy kings made their own rings.


    Fairy King''s ring was placed in a place where only Fairy King and Fairy King blessed people could enter.


    Tiara Rose has also been blessed before, so I once got a Fairy King ring. At that time, I had a lot of trouble.


    "Do I have to make a fairy king''s ring of sweets and prepare a storage place for them in the home of sweets...?"


    "That''s what I''m talking about."


    Keith nodded as Tiara Rose did what she had to do.


    "It''s Tiara''s ring as the fairy king of sweets..." It''s going to make something cute. "


    It seems that Aquastide imagined a ring with sweets on it, smiling. Certainly, the ring with the cake is cute, and I think Tiara Rose has often seen it in her previous life as a toy.


    If that''s the case, it''ll look good on Lucia.


    "Yeah, sure.... but I''m worried I''ll break it while I''m teasing you."


    "... it''s possible."


    Aside from whether or not the Fairy King''s ring will be broken, it will get in the way when playing outside with the decorated ring, or when practicing swords, etc.


    Tiara turns to Keith and proceeds.


    Keith, teach me how to make a ring.


    "Normally, Fairy King should know how to make it naturally...."


    Eh


    Tiara Rose''s eyes blinked at Keith''s words, ¡°Why don''t you know?¡± I never had such an idea to know how to make it naturally.


    ... if I could, I would know how to make it naturally.


    --I made a ring for the Villain Lady, but the situation is different...


    "Ughh..."


    Perhaps if you concentrate, the way the ring is made will float in your brain? Thinking so, Tiara Rose closes her eyes and sharpens her nerves.


    You can feel your magic power by concentrating - but unfortunately, the way the ring is made doesn''t float in your brain.


    Looks like we can''t do it.


    As Tiara Rose dropped her shoulder, Aquastide smiled, looking out for her.


    "I became a fairy king of sweets because it was a very special situation." You can teach Keith how to make it this time. "


    That''s right.


    Nodding to Aquastide''s suggestion, Tiara Rose looked at Keith and quickly turned away.


    "...... Keith?"


    "Keith, maybe..."


    I had a bad feeling, and Tiara Rose and Aquastide''s cheeks caught. "I don''t think so..."


    ¡°It was a long time ago, so I forgot how to make a ring.¡±


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Keith''s words dropped his shoulders in despair. I never thought I''d be told I''d forgotten how to make a ring.


    Well then, I mean... can''t Keith make a ring anymore?


    "No, if you need a ring and decide to make it again, the method should come to mind." I don''t need it right now, so it doesn''t come to mind. "


    "In that case, it seems impossible for me to teach you how to make a ring..."


    This is troubling. Shouldn''t we have Claire or Pearl teach us how to make a ring? Or should I take Keith to the archives and look into it?


    When Tiara Rose was troubled, she suddenly heard a loud noise.


    "--Oh!?"


    Instead of shouting in surprise, Aquastide hugged Tiara Rose and Keith stood in front of him to shelter him.


    ... but nothing in particular happens.


    Looks like you heard it from below.


    Is it a library?


    Is the book broken?


    There was no danger for the time being, so the Tiara Roses decided to go to the archives.


    In Keith''s castle is the [Forest Archives].


    Many people come here to check out the various things in the Marine Forest that are recorded in the leaf book.


    Wooden desks and leaf chairs with warm flower lamps. Although it has the shape of a book, it is made of leaves, so it is stored like a decoration in a tree that looks like a bookshelf.


    Until now, it was relatively left alone, but recently, it has been renovated to be more stylish because it has been checked more often than before.


    ¡°Keith and I will come in first, so Tiara can wait here until she''s safe.¡±


    "I think I collapsed somehow..."


    "Okay, be careful, Aqua, Keith."


    Tiara Rose waits in front of the entrance as she watches Aquastide and Keith walk in.


    --I hope nothing happens...


    As Tiara Rose waits, she says, "I''ll help you now!" Keith''s voice came in.


    "Eh, injured person...?"


    Could something have happened to the Forest Fairy? Dodge Dodge and Tiara Rose''s heart grow faster.


    Soon, the door opened and Aquastide came out.


    "There''s no danger, you can come in."


    "Yes! Aqua, I heard Keith asking for help... what''s going on inside?"


    I might be able to do something about myself! When Tiara Rose entered the library, a large number of leaf books were buried in the forest fairy.


    "... eh?"


    ¡°I don''t know the details, but I think he really likes books.¡±


    If I forgot the time and read a book, it was buried... Keith is moving the leaf book.


    Immediately, the buried fairy was rescued and she smiled, "Thank you!"


    Haa ~ ~ It was interesting! After all, books are the treasure of the world!


    "I don''t know. If you haven''t seen me lately, do you think I''ve been reading a book in my pocket?"


    ¡±No, no... it seems you''ve been obsessed with me for a hundred years or so.¡±


    Keith introduced me to the Forest Fairy when he noticed that Tiara Rose had arrived.


    "He likes books, and he manages the archives."


    Thank you!


    It was the forest fairy who managed the library that jumped out of the pile of leaf books.


    Different from other forest fairies, he was intelligent, wearing glasses and a hat over his green inner curly bob hair. He wears an apron and has a large pocket with tools for fixing books.


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide blink at the forest fairy who greeted her. It was too different from the forest fairy I''d ever met.


    --It''s kind of... very solid.


    Speaking of the usual forest fairies, they laugh and smile at the sweet flowers that can be eaten by Tiara Rose''s mouth.


    However, the fairy that appeared in front of her had a proud expression that cherished the book of leaves. I knew right away that I liked books.


    --Because you''re reading a book, you might be strong in language school.


    "I call you the caretaker, but you can call me whatever you want."


    King, not the administrator, but the librarian! The librarian of the forest! Don''t get me wrong!! "


    It''s the same for both of us, isn''t it?


    It''s a big difference!!


    Apparently, he would be angry if he was called a caretaker. I feel sorry for the swollen cheeks, but I think they are cute.


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide go to the Forest Fairy - the librarian and return the greeting.


    "Nice to meet you, Librarian. I''m Tiara Rose Lapis Marine Forest."


    This is my husband, Aquastide Marine Forest.


    Nhehehehe, you called me Librarian!


    The word "librarian" uttered by Tiara Rose instantly disrupted her expression. I''m glad to be called a librarian.


    The intelligent atmosphere just now had blown away in an instant...


    Keith, why don''t you call him because he looks so happy?


    "It''s the same thing, so I think it''s okay." I can''t help it. I''ll call you Librarian instead of Tiara. "


    Nhehehe! Thank you, King!!


    The librarian hides his hugged mouth with a book of leaves, and rebukes his words with "librarian..." with envious eyes.


    But immediately, the librarian glanced at Keith.


    Is it unusual for a king to come to the library?


    "I came to see it because it sounded like an avalanche." In other words, I''m going to read a book as well. "


    Oh, that was really helpful! But the king? You didn''t read the book I recommended the other day, did you? "


    I remember it properly! "he laughed to the librarian''s cancer.


    "... no. It''s okay." Just in time, let me find the book Tiara needs. "


    Do you have the necessary books?!? That''s the librarian''s turn!!


    The librarian who reacted twitchingly flew in front of Tiara Rose at a tremendous speed.


    When it comes to books, they seem to exert more power than usual.


    What kind of book is Master Tiara Rose looking for? Does the fact that you have a Lapis in your name mean that you were dowried by the Lapis Lazuli Kingdom? There are also books around there. If you are not a royalty but an aristocrat, there are some people who come as sons-in-law. The king will be blessed to have you here, so you can also read books on how to grow special plants. Other than that-- "


    ¡°Listen to me!¡±


    Hiiiii


    Keith grabbed and lifted the librarian''s neck to stop the machine gun talk. If we leave it alone, we''ll never stop talking.


    Tiara Rose explains the book she wants, smiling bitterly.


    "I want to read a book about the Fairy King."


    ¡°There''s no such thing as a human-controlled book.¡±


    Fairy King''s Book, is that it? It''s there, but... it''s not a human-reading book. ¡±


    The librarian bowed his head, saying ''I''m sorry'' to you. Depending on the content of the book, there seems to be a limit to who can read it.


    - Yeah, don''t tell humans about the Fairy King so easily.


    "Tiara, show him."


    Huh? ¨D ¨D Oh, that''s right.


    In Keith''s words, Tiara Rose nodded. The current Tiara Rose was human, but she also had another figure called the Fairy King.


    Tiara Rose nodded as soon as she saw Aquastide in confirmation.


    The librarian does not know what he means and looks strange.


    Conscious of the magical power of his body, Tiara Rose changed her appearance to the Fairy King of Confectionery, the Cat. The dress that fell to the floor is collected and put on the hangers by the forest fairies.


    Sweet fairy king Tiara Rose in a cute white cat figure.


    Fluffy white cat with long hair that feels comfortable to the touch. The type is similar to Persia, and the face is very dirty.


    At first glance, he was a cute cat, but his eyes were golden, a testament to the king.


    [Eehhhhh!? Please wait. What do you mean? The golden eyes are the king''s proof... no, no, no, by the way, Aquastide-sama is also the golden eyes!? What happened during the centuries I was immersed in reading!? "


    "Calm down."


    Heeee...


    Keith grabs the confused librarian''s hand again and calms him down.


    ¡°Tiara is the new Fairy King of Confectionery. Aqua is the king of golden eyes and starry sky.¡±


    [Oh my!! Such an amazing thing was happening!? I didn''t know Lord Ferrez had been given the status of King of the Starry Sky...... I think we should recreate the history book...... Then, the leaves of the ingredients......]


    "Listen to me."


    Hiyai


    Hang on to the neck three times, the librarian is teary-eyed. There''s too much information and I don''t know where to start.


    "Um, uh, it was the Fairy King''s book. If you''re a fairy king, of course you can read it. Is there a priority for information? ''


    The librarian puts his glasses back on and asks Tiara Rose. Apparently, there were several kinds of books that could be called the Fairy King''s books.


    Tiara Rose, held in her arms by Aquastide, is a little embarrassed but honest.


    "Actually, I just became a fairy king and I don''t know anything about it." I want you to tell me what the fairy king has to do and what he has to do. "


    "It''s a ring book about my castle."


    This is the handbook of the fairy king. Please wait ~! "


    Apparently, there was a book I was looking for, and I stroked my chest with relief.


    While the Tiara Roses were waiting, other fairies came and began to clean up the fallen books.


    I looked at the librarian and said, "It''s been a long time! ''and they''re having a good time.


    After waiting for a while, the librarian came back.


    Now that you''re ready, I''ll show you! Aquastide-sama is also the starry king, so it''s no problem if we''re together. "


    "Oh, thank you."


    Tiara Rose, Aquastide, and Keith were escorted from the back of the library to the basement.


    There was a book of leaves on a wooden book stand. However, the prepared leaf book was accompanied by a flower key and a chain of willows.

 198 3. Ring storage location

    "Wow, that''s amazing..."


    It looks like you can''t take it out.


    The basement walls seem to be quite sturdy, with the roots of the trees bare. There are branches of trees stretching out into leaves on the ceiling, but the flowers glowing in between are brightening up.


    Ask if the Tiara Rose is closer than I thought it would be.


    However, Keith didn''t seem to care at all, and while saying, "Is it even locked?", he removed the lock and looked at the book.


    "Keith, you should be more polite..."


    It''s okay. It''s a leaf book, so it''s easy to repair.


    Please don''t lick the restoration work, King!!


    The librarian opened his eyes wide in response to Keith''s words.


    Certainly, from the king''s point of view, the restoration will be easy. If you put a painful leaf on a tree, the sunlight will grow and the worn-out part will return to a healthy leaf. But! If you don''t observe it often, the shape of the leaves will jump or grow in a different direction than expected. It''s pretty nervous work. "


    "Okay, okay!" I''ll handle it politely, so shut up a little bit. "


    Keith grinned at Machine Gun Talk, and Tiara Rose sat down on the reading desk chair with a bitter smile...... but she wasn''t tall enough because she was a cat.


    "It''s hard to read."


    Aqua!


    Aquastide held up the tiara rose and sat on a chair on the reading table with the cat on her lap.


    You can read a book on a reading platform.


    --It''s embarrassing, but I can''t help it...!


    And I have to!


    Tiara Rose touches the book with her meatballs as she''s thrilled to learn the secrets of the Fairy King. I''m sure there''s something else you''d like to know.


    ¨D ¨D Care must be taken when handling it.


    But there he notices.


    Tiara Rose turns her head back and looks to Aquastide, who is putting herself on her lap, for help.


    ... I can''t turn the page well with my cat''s hands


    Although it will flip, it will handle the book clutter, and there is a risk that it will be torn or damaged at worst.


    "I''ll roll over."


    Thank you very much.


    Tiara Rose''s expression shone and she looked at the book that Aquastide was turning around. Next to the book is a key to the flower that Keith opened.


    You have a table of contents. Um... the fairy king was born? ¡±


    For the time being, it doesn''t seem to be a problem to read from the beginning.


    It was written that when you become a fairy king, you will prepare your own residence and make a ring. And it was important to build a relationship of trust with the fairies that were born.


    Speaking of which, I recalled that Keith had also taught the fairies about the ring and how to look at the map.


    ¨D ¨D It''s important to tell them what I want to do and talk about common sense with the confectionary fairy.


    The tiara rose nodded so much.


    The current situation is friendly with the people, and it doesn''t seem to have any particular problems---eating a sweets'' house, making new ones, or just thinking about sweets... If you leave it alone, it could be a big deal.


    "It says here how to make a room with a ring."


    Ah, it''s true.


    It is written that a room will be prepared first and then a ring will be made.


    Both tasks had to be carried out with magic power, so the Tiara Rose had to be used. To be honest, I wasn''t that good at manipulating magic power.


    - Can you do that?


    Looking at the book with a strange face, Aquastide''s giggling voice came to his ears. And he strokes his forehead like a tickle.


    Aqua?


    As expected, the Fairy King''s power alone is difficult to use.


    That''s right...


    When Aquastide said that, the difficulty rose in Tiara Rose.


    But Keith breads all over Tiara Rose''s head! and stopped with the sound of clapping hands.


    "Let''s go to the confectionery house because it''s more practical than we think."


    The librarian organized the library, so Tiara Rose took Aquastide and Keith and transferred them to the confectionery house. Tiara Rose is being held by Aquastide because she is still in the form of a cat.


    Then, the confectionery fairies gathered.


    I''m the king ~!


    Welcome!


    Here''s some sweets!


    And tea together!


    The fairies immediately began to prepare for the tea party, seemingly with great pleasure. Apparently, eating sweets was a greeting for the fairies.


    A confectionary fairy from Tiara Rose''s confectionery.


    Honey pink hair and light blue flower eyes. Dressed in pastry chef uniforms inspired by the sweets they were born in, they each have their own confectionery tools.


    The first confectionary fairy was born from a shortcake, followed by cookies, zachtorte, and more.


    They are friendly to humans and bless a lot of people. The effect is that the confectionery making will improve, so Marine Forest''s confectionery technology will improve even further, and Tiara Rose can''t help but enjoy it.


    Tiara Rose''s eyes glistened, "It''s too nice," and she sat down on the high cookie chair that the fairy had prepared for her. Even cats are at a fine height.


    This is a confectionery house, so the buildings as well as the furniture are all made of confectionery.


    "I thought you were here to make this your own castle."


    That''s true... but first of all, it''s not important to deepen your interaction with the candy fairy!?


    "In other words, you want to eat sweets..."


    In response to Keith''s stunned words, Aquastide laughed, ¡°That''s good.¡±


    "It''s certainly important to interact with the confectionery fairy, and she''s very welcoming." Besides, Keith likes sweets made by fairies, doesn''t he? "


    "...... I can''t help it."


    In response to Aquastide''s words, Keith came to the table with a blow in his head.


    Keith sits in a chair and Aquastide sits next to Tiara Rose. Keith was just across the street.


    Confirming that everyone was seated, the fairy came to the forest wagon with sweets.


    The wheels are rounded with soft tree branches, and there is a flower lamp at hand. The handle is firmly made of wooden branches.


    ¡±Wow, that''s cute. But you''re not made of sweets... what''s wrong with you?¡±


    "That''s right, our fairies were making it all up." It was definitely a bargain to get sweets. "


    The forest fairies made it for me.


    It looks like there was a reward for the treats, but I''d like to thank you again from Tiara Rose. I''ve been caring for the forest fairy since my fianc¨¦''s time in Marine Forest.


    Nnhhh! A sweet full course for the king!


    Fruit jellies, macaroons, scones, cakes, and cr¨¨me brul¨¦e were lined up in front of everyone.


    There are small flowers in the fruit jelly with cut apples, it''s like a flower field. The macaron will have a rich flavor with chocolate on the lower part of the dough. The scones are made from Earl Grey tea leaves, which smell good, and the cake is a short cake made with plenty of Marine Forest specialty oysters on the arm of a confectionery fairy. Cr¨¨me brulee has a shiny surface and I want to try crushing it with a spoon as soon as possible.


    Wow, amazing, amazing! You also use forest flowers. It looks and feels gorgeous. "


    Tiara Rose looks at the full course of the sweets while getting on the table. Not only does it smell very delicious, but it also makes you look captive.


    - That''s a sweet fairy!


    When tea time begins happily, Keith, who was unchaste at first, also tastes delicious. On the contrary, I am asking for a change. Apparently, I really liked the fairy treats.


    Aquastide is also eating jelly while saying, "You look beautiful."


    Speaking of tiara roses, I couldn''t eat sweets as well as a cat, so I went back to the human figure and got a normal-sized cookie chair.


    Tiara Rose was thinking of bringing Lucia Rose, Shtilka, and Shtilio, and the confectionery fairy looked at Tiara Rose.


    What can I do for you?


    "That''s right!" I''m totally addicted to sweets... "


    Tiara Rose wipes her mouth and looks at the confectionery fairies.


    "I want to create a room in the sweets'' house where the ring will be installed."... do you mind? "


    Ring?


    Ah, that''s what I heard from the forest fairy!


    Make it ~!


    Apparently, the Forest Fairy knew about the ring. The confectionery fairies gladly said, "Is it a ring made of confectionery? ''.


    --If you eat that, you''ll lose your ring.


    Tiara Rose laughs, though the ring made of sweets certainly looks delicious.


    "Thank you for your permission, fairies."


    This sweet home belongs to the king!


    That''s why the fairies laugh when they can do whatever it takes. If they needed more help, they could use sweets to build more.


    When Tiara Rose reappears as a cat, she closes her eyes and concentrates. Use your magic to move the confectionery house.


    ¨D ¨D The place where the ring is stored in the sweets'' home.


    I don''t know what to do.


    In the basement, upstairs, or in the kitchen to make sweets? When I imagined the various places, the whole house of sweets floated in Tiara Rose''s mind.


    I thought the candy house was three stories long, but apparently there''s an attic.


    You can understand the house by using your magic power.


    --The attic isn''t particularly used, is it?


    There was a small, round window, from which I could see the royal castle. The view was overwhelming, and Tiara Rose liked the attic at first sight.


    ... I''ve decided to stay here.


    Tiara Rose draws an arc around her mouth and pours magic into the confectionery house.


    At first, I was worried that I would not be able to do well, but when I became a cat-fairy king of sweets, I was able to deal with magic and nature when I thought about the home of sweets.


    Maybe this is what Keith was talking about.


    Soon, the attic became the ring vault.


    Phew...


    With a sense of accomplishment and a lot of magic, Tiara Rose sat down on the floor. It was harder to use Fairy King''s powers than I thought.


    Aquastide hugged the tiara rose.


    Are you okay, Tiara?


    Yes! I''m a little tired, but... I have a room where I can safely place my ring.


    When Tiara Rose smiled, Aquastide stroked her head and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead.


    But Keith broke into it.


    "You''re not messing around in public, are you?"


    Nahhh!?


    Keith almost grabbed the tiara rose, but Aquastide took a step back and evaded.


    "Tiara is my wife, so that''s all right, right?"


    I''m a blessed fairy king of the forest?


    As usual, sparks were scattered between Aquastide and Keith, and Tiara Rose hurriedly stopped.


    What are you doing, both of you!


    In that case, let''s calm down by eating cookies ~


    As the Tiara Rose stopped, the confectionary fairy stuck cookies into Aqua Steed and Keith''s mouth. "It''s like a forest fairy forcing Tiara Rose to eat sweet flowers..."


    Arbitrated by the confectionery fairy, the two grinned bitterly as they ate cookies.


    Keith flattened the cookie and looked at Tiara Rose, ¡°And then...¡±


    You just have to decide what kind of ring you want to use.


    You have to think about it before you can make it.


    Tiara Rose nods to Keith''s words and thinks about what kind of ring she should use... but it doesn''t come to mind immediately.


    Is it better to help the country, or is it better to help the individual, or... it seems like I can''t stop thinking about it.


    "It''s not in a hurry, so you should decide slowly." I''ll always be available if I can help you. "


    Thank you, Aqua


    Tiara Rose nodded vigorously, saying that if Aquastide thought about it together, it would be a hundred men.

 199 4. Holidays

    Although it was good to have a place to store the ring in the confectionery house, Tiara Rose was lost as to what kind of ring to use.


    I tried to draw a design on the paper... but it didn''t look very good.


    I don''t have a date when I have to make a ring, but I have to hurry somehow...


    As Tiara Rose roars toward her desk, Olivia asks, ¡°If you don''t mind, why don''t you look at the ring at the window shopping?¡± he suggested.


    Levy nodded, ¡°That''s good.¡±


    "Of course, I don''t have a problem buying it." Or rather, if you beg Aquastide, he''ll collect the rings from all over the city...! "


    Olivia''s eyes shine and Tiara Rose says, "Stop!¡± he exclaims.


    "You don''t need a ring that much!? In the first place, I don''t wear a ring very often..."


    There are only two rings on the left ring finger of Tiara Rose.


    A wedding ring and a starry king''s ring that can receive the power of the starry king from Aquastide.


    Aquastide is wearing a Villain Daughter ring made from three Fairy King rings.


    That''s why I don''t want to wear another ring.


    --It''s inconvenient to make sweets if there are lots of rings...


    Half of it is for hobby reasons.


    "Really? I''m sorry." even though I want to dress up more tiara roses.... "


    I''ve been dressed up enough for you.


    The dress is tailored by a dedicated designer to match the tiara rose, and the materials used are of high quality.


    Tiara Rose thinks it is luxurious enough because it has all the decorations.


    "Somewhat..."


    So Tiara Rose would like to dress up with Lucia Rose, Shtilka, and Shtilio.


    After all, I want to buy anything for my child, and I want to dress him up in cute dresses and costumes.


    "Luca and Rio are twins, so there are many matching costumes, but they''re not very matching with Lucia, so... I want to give you something matching."


    "That''s good!" Once the three of you are in line, that''s already cute Max... uuu, I just imagined it...!! "


    Olivia-sama!?


    Tiara Rose rushed out her handkerchief, but Levi, who was holding back, shook his head and said, ¡°It''s okay.¡±


    "I''m just aroused, and I don''t have any nosebleeds."


    "Really? That''s good... right?"


    Olivia''s nose was bleeding, and somehow Tiara Rose kept her handkerchief.


    Now I don''t know which one is the maid.


    "... oh, it looks like His Majesty Aquastide has arrived."


    When Levi looked towards the door, he heard a pleasant voice and the footsteps of the children. Looks like Aquastide brought Lucia Rose, Shtilka, and Shtilio.


    Along with the sound of knocking, I heard a cute voice saying, "Mother!"


    As soon as Levi opened the door, Lucia Rose jumped in. I have a cute dress with a circular white bag.


    It''s like getting ready to go out.


    Tiara Rose nodded with a bitter smile as she turned her gaze to Aquastide.


    "I think Lucia wants to go to the city." I''ve been trying to get ready. I can get my job done too, so I thought I''d go out if Tiara seems okay. "


    "That''s right." I''m fine.... Actually, I didn''t even think about what kind of ring to wear. "


    That''s why I feel different, and I can go out with my family, and I appreciate it.


    Olivia also recommended window shopping, nodding vigorously.


    Therefore, my family decided to go out to the city.


    The three children have never left the royal castle.


    Elliot and Philine have been to the Mansion several times, and this is how they rarely walk around the city.


    Lucia Rose has been here several times, but Shtilka and Shtilio are new to it.


    Woah, lots of people!


    Awesome!


    Shtilka and Shtilio glitter their eyes and look at the cityscape. Pointing this way, I said, "What''s that?" What? "asked Tiara Rose and Aquastide.


    Aquastide carefully explains each of them.


    ¡°It''s a store, and it sells a lot of things. They sell bread, they sell sweets, they sell flowers."


    Heeeee!


    The twins nodded in admiration, ¡°Sweet treats!" He ran to the confectionery store. You certainly seem to be growing up to be a sweet lover.


    Then Lucia Rose said, "Me too!" I said, "and chased. This was followed by Aquastide and Tiara Rose.


    After that, the Talmos, the guards, are sneaking after them. There are more children this time than usual. The Talmo is in command, escorting several of them.


    That''s a cute cookie!


    Shtilka and the others ran to the stall selling cookies.


    Cookies are made in the shape of hearts, rhombuses, animals and houses. It seems to be popular with women and children, and there are a few customers.


    "Lucia, Luca, Rio. Line up if you want. When the order comes, you can buy it."


    "" Yes! ""


    As the children replied cheerfully to the words of Tiara Rose, they saw their surroundings roughly.


    "Eh, eh, eh, eh, wait, to Lord Tiara Rose... Majesty Aquastide!?"


    "So maybe those three are kids!?"


    "It''s as cute as I saw it in the picture!"


    The Tiara Roses weren''t particularly disguised, so it seemed like they were instantly revealed to the people of the city.


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide smiled face to face and waved gently. Then the people of the city smiled and waved their hands back.


    Shtilka and Shtilio hide behind the Tiara Rose, and Lucia Rose waves her hands the same way.


    Aquastide crouched down and smiled, ¡°I''m not scared.¡±


    "Everyone loves Luca and Rio. That''s why you waved your hand and made me happy, didn''t you?"


    "...... nh"


    Ahh!


    Shtilka and Shtilio wave in the same way, and everyone in the city loves their cuteness. Some of them said, "You look just like His Majesty in childhood! There''s also a voice saying," Oh, my God. "


    As I was standing in the stall, the woman in front of me called out.


    "Um, please go ahead...... Your Majesty"


    ¡°No, my family is private today, so please don''t worry about it.¡±


    Y-Yes!


    Perhaps she was sorry, but the woman nodded repeatedly as she replied in a squeaky voice. Looks like I got pretty nervous.


    However, Shtilka and Shtilio waved at the woman, saying, "Onee-chan," and naturally smiled back.


    After a short line, the order of the Tiara Roses arrived.


    When the children look at the cookie, the shopkeeper looks nervous and says, "Welcome...!" "and explains the cookies.


    As the Tiara Rose watched over the children, she felt a gaze. Aquastide.


    Which tiara do you want?


    "Huh? I... I..."


    I wanted to buy something that my children liked today, so Tiara Rose had no intention of buying anything of her own.


    But it must have been found out that Aquastide was staring at the cookies.


    "... I want to eat too"


    "Fufu, be honest. Choose what Tiara likes. Let''s eat on that bench over there."


    Yes.


    When Tiara Rose confesses, Aquastide giggles with joy.


    Did Lucia do that?


    Yeah!


    Lucia Rose had a sword-shaped cookie. Overall, it is finely made, but it remains firmly shaped without breaking.


    This cookie is perfect for Lucia Rose, who dreams of becoming a knight.


    Looking at Shtilka and Shtilio, they are satisfied with the choice of moon-shaped and cat-shaped cookies, respectively.


    ¡±Shall I ask Lucia to pay my bills?¡±


    Me?


    ¡°That''s right, when you buy what you want, you need money in return.¡±


    Lucia Rose probably knows how to spend money by studying, but she has little chance of actually using it.


    So I briefly explained Tiara Rose and handed over the money.


    With the money in his hands, Lucia Rose''s eyes sparkled and she said, "I''ll take care of it!¡± he nodded vigorously. Apparently, it was burning with a sense of purpose.


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide smiled at the situation.


    Lucia Rose said, "Take this!" He grabbed everyone''s cookies and another heart cookie and gave the money to the clerk.


    Wasn''t one Lucia enough?


    Aquastide laughed at Lucia Rose, who had just increased her share to two.


    But since Shtilka and Shtilio were one at a time, Lucia Rose was in a hurry.


    "Lucia, let''s do it one at a time." There may be other shops, and there will be dinner, right? ¡±


    I explained that because the rice was no longer available, but Lucia Rose shook her head.


    "This is your father''s!"


    "Eh... Aqua''s?"


    "Was it for me... thank you, Lucia"


    You''re welcome!


    Lucia Rose''s words dampened not only the Tiara Roses, but also the people around her who were watching.


    The cookies I bought sat on the bench and ate well with my family.

 200 5. Requests for cooperation from the Secretary

    As Tiara Rose wrote her responses to invitations to evening parties and tea parties in her room, a circled seal appeared on her desk.


    "Is this... a letter?"


    "It looks like a letter..."


    It was Olivia who peeped in from behind, responding to Tiara Rose''s murmuring. Behind them, Levi was peeking.


    A lovely letter drawn on a leaf, rounded and tied with a flower ribbon.


    - A fairy in the woods?


    However, I never got a letter from the fairy in the forest, so Tiara Rose leans her head.


    Just in case, I''ll check.


    "Thank you, Levy."


    In case of danger, Levi, who also serves as Olivia''s escort, took the letter.


    Take the flower ribbon and check the letter of the leaf.


    "Hmm... It looks like a letter from the librarian." You said you saw me at the forest library the other day, didn''t you? "


    ¡°Yes, I didn''t expect to get a letter.¡±


    Tiara Rose receives a letter from Levy with a leaf and looks through it.


    In the librarian''s letter, it was written that he generally wanted to recreate the history books of the Marine Forest, and for that reason he wanted to hear the stories of Tiara Rose and Aquastide.


    "Marine Forest History Making...."


    Speaking of which, you said you wanted to make a history book of recent events.


    I''m going to make a history book of this country, so of course I''m going to give you my full cooperation.


    Immediately thinking of adjusting the schedule, Olivia was excited to say "History Book!?" and a huge nosebleed spurted out, but Levy put a handkerchief on her right away, so she could do nothing.


    Tiara Rose looks at Olivia worriedly, hoping that she has calmed down recently.


    "Master Olivia''s knowledge is very reliable, so I don''t want you to come with me... but it''s okay..."


    "Of course!! I''m so happy to be able to witness the historic moment of creating a Marine Forest History Book...!!"


    To Olivia, who replied to the odor, Tiara Rose could not say anything other than, ¡°Let''s go together.¡±


    In a few days.


    Tiara Rose came to Keith''s Castle with a rounded leaf pie. In addition to Tiara Rose, Aquastide, Olivia, Levi, and Elliott.


    The children are playing with Philine because she brought them along.


    "Hah, hah, hah, hah... me, me...!"


    "Olivia...!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    As soon as I arrived at Keith''s Castle, Olivia was hyperventilated and had a nosebleed that knocked her down. She is breathing with her shoulders.


    "I''m in the Forest Fairy King''s Castle!"


    Olivia''s tension was Max.


    Tiara Rose, Aquastide, and Elliot met and looked at Levi, not knowing what to do. Levi was the only one who could handle the situation.


    "If your nose bleeds so much, you''ll risk your life if you don''t get home soon."


    "Oh, you can''t do that!" I''m going to go to the forest library and witness the completion of the history book...!!! I''ll stop the nosebleed and show you!!!!! "


    Beside Olivia''s trembling body, there are many blood-stained handkerchiefs. Everyone thought it would be impossible to stop this.


    But Olivia said "Hmph!!" and stopped her nose bleeding...!


    "Awesome, Olivia! Excellent! You deserved a special training...!!"


    - What kind of special training did you do?


    It was Tiara Rose who had inadvertently put a tsukko in her heart, but I didn''t feel like listening to the content...


    "...... Are you done?" Keith looked at everything with a subtle face. My castle is almost dyed red and my face is clinging to it. Of course, Levi took care of all of Olivia''s nosebleeds, so Keith''s castle didn''t have a drop of blood on it.


    "Ahh, I''m so sorry for the embarrassing appearance in front of you!!"


    ¡°No, well, help the librarian.¡±


    "Yes!!"


    Olivia replied cheerfully to Keith, who tapped her shoulder with a fan. I can''t help but look forward to making a history book.


    So I came to the library in the forest.


    Welcome! Thank you for coming today!


    Forest Fairy - The librarian took off his hat and bowed his head to greet me.


    Olivia, Elliot, and Levi greeted each other immediately. It was a bit strange because I hadn''t seen a fairy like this before.


    "Thank you for inviting me, Librarian." This is a souvenir leaf pie. I burned it this morning. "


    ¡±Wow, that smells so good! Nhehehe, I''ll serve it at tea time."


    The librarian gladly received the souvenir and guided me back to "Please".


    Then there was a tree that had never existed before. The light yellow and green leaves are sparkling, and you can see at a glance that it is a special tree.


    At the same time, it contained magic power.


    --I might not have noticed my magical powers.


    With the power of Tiara Rose herself, the Starry Sky King, and the Fairy King of Confectionery, the magic power in each stage increased and the handling method became better.


    Keith touches the tree as everyone keeps an eye on it. Then, the leaves sparkled. The reason for this was that Keith''s magic power was poured into the trees.


    "It''s beautiful... Keith''s magic power, isn''t it?"


    "Yeah. This is how you make something special in a leaf book." Use leaves from a tree grown with magic power. Tiara, Aqua. And - you there, Olivia. Pour some magic into the tree. "


    "I''m so sorry too!?"


    What surprised Keith the most was Olivia.


    I was going to dedicate all my knowledge to the history books, but I didn''t expect to be asked for magic power. Instead, I''m confused that I can participate in it!?


    Tiara Rose looks at Olivia like that and grabs her hand.


    Master Olivia''s knowledge is vast, so please cooperate.


    "Hahaha, if it''s okay with me, of course!" I''ll pour all my knowledge into the tree...!! "


    Olivia nodded her calories so loudly that she couldn''t help losing the Tiara Rose.


    "I''ll do my best!" Let''s grow a nice tree. "


    Yeah!!


    These two are gaming - and when it comes to this world, it burns a lot. Aquastide smiled bitterly at the sight of Tiara Rose and Olivia.


    Because Aquastide tells us that the Tiara Roses had a previous life playing the game. So I know a lot about the Marine Forest Kingdom and the Lapis Lazuli Kingdom that set the stage for the game.


    I''ll have to be quite energetic, because you two are going to do your best.


    ¡°I''m looking forward to seeing what kind of trees you grow into.¡±


    Aquastide nodded as Tiara Rose smiled.


    "Alright, well then... from Olivia"


    ¡±Huh, yes!!¡±


    Olivia, called by Keith, replied vigorously and walked to the bottom of the tree. My right hand and my right foot are coming out together, so I think I''m pretty nervous.


    Tiara Rose and Levi keep up the good work in their hearts while watching this happen! Send a cup of coffee and ale.


    Olivia stood in front of the tree, breathing deeply and kneeling in a flowing beauty.


    "Ahh, I''m worried that you can inject my tiny magic power into such a beautiful tree... but it would be a pleasure to have my magic power and knowledge at hand."


    And touch the tree with both hands.


    Slowly, gently, like a treasure, like a tree.


    ¡±... I can see the magic of Lord Olivia flowing in¡±


    Although the amount of magic power itself is not large, I can see that it is pouring in carefully. Olivia cherishes this tree not only for words, but also for movement.


    And at the same time, I heard a little bump in my voice.


    - Something wrong?


    Tiara Rose leans her neck and her ears.


    ¡°I''ll tell you everything I know about the history of the Marine Forest. First of all, the fountain in the center of the capital has the" Lapis Lazuli Ring "logo, which is sometimes used for date gatherings. And there are some secret passages to go to the Imperial Castle....."


    Olivia-sama, stop, stop!


    Tiara Rose stops in a hurry as she talks about what she''s talking about. If you are a member here, there will be no problem, but it is not a good content to mutter casually.


    "I thought I''d give you all my knowledge..."


    "It''s just magic power..."


    I wonder if you were going to pour your magic power all the way through the conversation? Without a doubt, Olivia''s magic power will be exhausted before she can finish speaking.


    "Ugh, I thought magic was not enough..."


    That said, when Olivia finished pouring out her magic, a red rose blossomed.


    I wonder if it was a rose tree?


    Tiara Rose blinks her eyes as she sees a tree of roses. However, the tree itself is nothing ordinary, nor is it a rose leaf.


    Thinking about it, Keith said, "I told you that magic grows.¡± he said.


    "It means that red roses bloomed with his magic power." Tiara and Aqua should grow with their own magic. ¡±


    "I see...!"


    I thought that the tree would only grow bigger, but the person who gave me the magic power would change the way I grew.


    Tiara Rose excitedly asked, "Can I raise you next?" and Aquastide.


    "Yeah, of course."


    ¡°I look forward to seeing how it grows!¡±


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I''m sorry for the excitement of Tiara Rose, but I was sure that everyone there would grow up.


    You''ll definitely grow into a sweets company...!


    Tiara Rose goes to the tree, kneels down like Olivia, and touches the tree trunk with both hands. Then, it started to shine. It was something I didn''t see when I was Olivia.


    "Amazing, the magic will be sucked away...!"


    Tiara Rose looks at the tree in amazement as she opens her eyes.


    Olivia''s red roses grew bigger, and the sweet scent began to soften around her. It seems that the scent of the rose has grown stronger.


    --Does my magic mean that the flowers have grown further?


    Tiara-like growth.


    It''s true.


    Aquastide and Keith seem to know how they grew. However, Tiara Rose herself hasn''t arrived yet.


    --Do you understand if you pour a little more magic power?


    With that in mind, the magic power in my body was slowly pouring into my hands and into the trees. And this time, the white roses bloomed.


    "! A new flower has blossomed"


    I also poured enough magic power, so Tiara Rose took her hand off her head and looked at the white rose.


    Huh?


    I knew right away just by looking at it. Tiara touches the rose with her fingertips and taps it gently. Then, there is a trickling sound.


    "This white rose, the petals are stiff." It doesn''t look like a flower.... no, I wonder if it feels like a flower ornament made of something hard...? "


    Which one?


    As Keith peered in, he picked the flowering white and red roses one by one.


    And then I ate the petals.


    Keith!?


    Tiara Rose is anxious to say "What are you doing!?", but Keith says "Sweet" and laughs.


    "This red rose tastes like honey." The white ones are like figurines. "


    Huh?


    Even though it was just an ordinary flower, the magic power of Tiara Rose made it a treat.


    I turned my gaze to Aquastide in surprise and nodded, seemingly convinced. Elliot, Olivia, and Levi nodded behind them.


    --Ugh, I wonder if they think I''m such a sweet brain... No, you think so.


    But now that the flowers are sweet, Tiara Rose nodded, looking at the roses. And while I wanted to eat a little, I gave Aquastide a place.


    Well then, it''s my magic power in the end.


    Thank you!


    With excited eyes, the librarian said, "You''re about to grow up! ''and flying around the tree. Keith says," Calm down. "


    Aquastide knelt down and poured his magic into the tree, smiling bitterly at the way it looked. Soon, a change appeared in the tree.


    The tree grows firmly and grows taller and taller. At a height that quickly reached the ceiling, it sparkled like releasing the magical power of Aquastide and transformed into a star. The stars shining in the trees are like Christmas trees.


    Tiara Rose immediately goes under Aquastide and looks up at the trees together. Glowing is a fantasy.


    --The magic power of Aqua''s starry sky was kind of warm.


    Looking at it in a dusty mood, the librarian said, "I think I can make a history book! ''I said happily.

 201 6. Fairy King Rings and Greedy Books

    With Keith''s magic power, the Omotome tree was formed. Olivia''s magic power gave rise to a red rose. The magic power of Tiara Rose gave rise to a white rose, which became a treat. The magic of Aquastide turned the stars into shining trees.


    This is the tree that will become the new history book of the Marine Forest.


    Tiara Rose, who was watching it, noticed it with a smile.


    "I... may have decided on the ring I want to make"


    As soon as I said it, the magic energy gleaming around the Tiara Rose turned into a cat. And the way the ring is made comes up in your brain.


    I am relieved that I know what to do by deciding what kind of ring I want to make.


    Aquastide held up Tiara Rose, who had become a cat, and stuck her noses together.


    "You''ve decided on the ring you want to make." Congratulations, Tiara. "


    Ah... thank you, Aqua


    While dyeing his cheeks on his surprise nose, Tiara Rose nodded vigorously.


    Well, we can make a history book together while we''re working on it.


    Really? Thank you, Keith.


    With Keith''s permission, Tiara Rose was in a good mood.


    From the trees grown by the magic of the tiara roses, the librarian carefully tears the leaves one by one. We''ll process this to make a history book.


    Next to it is a flower table, on which Tiara Rose intends to concentrate to create a ring.


    In a serious atmosphere, Olivia took a breath away.


    "We are witnessing a historic moment..."


    "It''s very rare... but normally, you won''t be allowed to be there."


    Aquastide stands beside Tiara Rose''s working desk and agrees with Olivia.


    After that, it became a very quiet space.


    The librarian only makes a history book sound, and the rest is just a breath that can be heard occasionally. Tiara Rose''s eyes seemed to be closed and focused, and she didn''t make any slight movements.


    Aquastide looks at the situation and looks forward to seeing what kind of ring will be completed.


    --I wish I could have helped you...


    As expected, the fairy king''s ring didn''t know what to do. It seems that the ring is made with magic power in the first place, so I can''t judge whether it is good to approach it.


    I was just looking at the serious look on Tiara Rose''s face.


    After a while, Keith snaps his fingers as he says, "It looks like it''s still going to take a while." A wooden desk and leaf chair grew from the ground.


    "You''ve definitely got Tiara''s handiwork, right?" Let''s eat. Tea will make a fairy. "


    Keith grabs the Tiara Rose handmade leaf pie that the librarian had received. The librarian who was enthusiastic about the work unfortunately didn''t hear Keith''s voice.


    Soon, the fairies of the forest came with their tea sets.


    They brew tea in a cup of flowers and prepare sweet honey instead of sugar. Next to it is milk.


    Elliot was amazed at the fairy''s solid hospitality.


    "Wow, that''s very solid." It''s an honor to have a fairy brew tea... "


    "Yeah, yeah, really! How amazing to be able to make tea!" even though it''s such a small body..... "


    Unlike Elliot, Olivia admired it with all her might.


    Keith laughed at the two of them, ¡°Amazing, isn''t it?" Douya returned with a face.


    "This castle also has a kitchen so that Tiara can use it anytime." The fairies used it to learn how to brew tea. "


    "Were you doing that?"


    Aquastide calls out to Tiara Rose as she squints at Keith, ¡°I don''t need the kitchen, so I need you to remove it.¡±


    Tiara, I''m ready for tea, but what should I do?


    ¡±...... I''m almost done, so I''m making it.¡±


    "All right."


    Aquastide sits in Keith''s chair away from the Tiara Rose because he wants to build without losing focus.


    All but Tiara Rose and the librarian, relaxed tea time.


    While enjoying the flower tea, Levy asked a question.


    ¡°How long do the rings and the history books take?¡±


    "Hmmm? Because the ring is based on magic treatment and taste, Tiara will be overwhelmed." After all, it will take a few hours. The history book depends on the skill of the librarian.... "


    Keith''s words turned everyone''s attention to the librarian.


    The librarian was moving without hesitation, and it seemed as if his body understood how to make a history book. It''s so fast, I don''t think I''m doing any precision work.


    "... it looks like the history books will be ready soon, too"


    "That''s right. He''s really good with books, and no one comes out to the right." If you leave it to me, you''ll have a fantastic history of the Marine Forest. ¡±


    Everyone nods at the words.


    I''m not worried because I''ve already seen the calories related to the librarian''s book.


    Ask Keith what happened, Olivia was also curious.


    "It''s a history book, but what about the contents? I still think we should mention all of Marine Forest...."


    I think it''s time to create the "Marine Forest Complete" that Olivia had been planning to create for a long time...


    But Keith bothered to say "nnhh."


    "Shouldn''t you know what it feels like to be rough?" The name of the king, the big case. "


    Olivia was shocked by Keith''s crushing words.


    "Oh no! I''ve checked the underground of the Marine Forest since I found the Dwarf - the underground kingdom of Elly!" That''s not all. I also created a secret passage for when the city''s terrain shifts...!! "


    Lady Olivia!?


    Aquastide looks at Olivia, saying he hasn''t heard the last of them.


    "Ah...! I was going to report it when it was completed." Levi was the only one who worked, so no one else knows about this passage. ¡±


    Olivia stretched her chest out to say that our butler would be amazing, so Aquastide and Elliot sighed together.


    "In the meantime, writing down hidden passages in a history book is a denial." If someone reads it and misuses it, it''s going to be a big deal. "


    "- Ha! That''s right..." "I made a stupid proposal for the dream of the Marine Forest..." I''m sorry, Majesty Aquastide. I-- "


    "Don''t try to get down on your knees!" Levi, stand up. "


    Why would this lady and the butler try to take their seats in Natural? "No, I know it''s a sincere apology..."


    Aquastide sighed again and turned to the librarian.


    "For the time being, it would be good to have the librarian select the content." I''m sure you''ll be managing the history books so far, and you''ll know what''s best for you. ¡±


    Yes!


    Olivia nodded immediately to Aquastide''s decision.


    I did it!


    Then two hours.


    Tiara Rose looks toward the Aquastids with an exceptional smile. I struggled a lot, but somehow the ring was completed.


    --It might be the first time I''ve concentrated so much and used my magic power...


    As the Tiara Rose breathed a sigh of relief, Aquastide, Keith, Olivia, Levi, and Elliot, who were making tea, came under the Tiara Rose.


    "Good job, Tiara."


    Thank you, Aqua. This is the fairy king''s ring of sweets I made. "


    There was a cute ring on Tiara Rose''s little cat''s hand.


    The sparkling ring was like stained glass, but a hint of sweet smell reached my nose.


    Looking seriously at the ring, Aquastide said, "This is," so I think Tiara Rose is just right.


    That''s right. In fact, I used the magic of Aqua''s starry sky together with this ring.


    Originally, the Tiara Rose created a confectionary fairy to receive the magic power of the overflowing starry sky.


    If so, you can use not only your magic power but also the magic power of the starry sky on the ring. And we all came up with it by putting some magic into the tree.


    "The power of this ring... is restored." If you get some injuries, you should be able to heal right away. "


    "It''s... you''ve made something amazing again."


    Aquastide looks at Tiara Rose breathlessly. Many people would want this ring to be known to exist.


    There is healing magic in this world, but there are overwhelmingly few users.


    Tiara places her ring on a petal on her desk, which makes her nose sharp.


    It smells good.


    "Oh, flower tea and leaf pie." Soon, Tiara''s tea became a fairy as well-- "


    Woahhhh!?


    "What the hell!?"


    The librarian''s voice echoed before Keith said so. When I looked at the work desk, there was a book made, and the librarian was on top of it.


    Was it a pleasure to scream at what had been done? In the meantime, when I looked closely, the Fairy King''s ring and book of sweets began to resonate and glow with Kei-in.


    Huh!? What''s going on?!


    Tiara Rose rushes to the ring, but Aquastide says, "Dangerous!" Shouting, he hugs Tiara Rose.


    I can''t let you go to the ring because I don''t know the situation and it might be dangerous.


    "Calm down, Tiara."


    Aqua, but...!


    If anything happens to the ring, and if someone gets hurt because of the ring, Tiara Rose is worried.


    "Shit, that''s it!" The magic power of Tiara and Aqua is in the ring, and your magic power is in the history book, so it resonated and your power swelled! "


    Ehhhhh!?


    Tiara Rose screams miserably as if what she has done for herself is completely behind the scenes.


    Then, the book that was closed was opened vigorously, and the librarian was blown away.


    Woahhhh!


    Librarian! Keith, what should I do?


    "Because I''m also--"


    But--


    Somehow I managed to find a solution, and the book moved faster than I could think. Everyone who was there would have thought what it meant to move fast.


    The book created by the librarian floated in the sky, and the opened page looked like a mouth, [A treasure trove of knowledge...!] ''I yelled and ate Olivia.


    "Oh, Olivia!!"

 202 7. Records of memories

    Olivia slowly woke up in a fluttering awareness.


    Apparently, he was lying down, and the ceiling was visible.


    "This is... a ceiling I don''t know!!"


    Olivia''s slumbering consciousness was awakened at once, and her eyes were wide open. I can''t believe there was a ceiling in this world that I didn''t even know existed...! "


    "I can''t go anymore." We need to calm down first. "


    Olivia took a deep breath and looked around.


    It''s a dark, dim passage, but the wall seems to be made of a tree trunk. I could see the area without darkening because the flowers were glowing slightly.


    ¡±I''m... surely filled with books I''ve made?¡±


    In other words, this is the world in the book.


    "Oh, wow! I can''t believe I put it in a book!" I''m impressed!! "


    I want to share this emotion with someone. Olivia thought so, but unfortunately there''s only one of her own here.


    - I''m sorry.


    Olivia tilts her head, wondering what to do. I think there must be a good reason for getting into the book.


    Orthodoxy, for example, has something to do to save this world, right?


    If you ask me to be a hero, I will gladly fight the Demon King, and if I need a helmet to save the world, I will give this to you whenever I need it.


    "Ha! If you show yourself to me, Levi will scold you, so you can''t do it."


    Olivia suddenly finds herself shaking her head.


    Speaking of which, I think I heard the word "treasure trove of knowledge" the moment I was able to eat it.


    Olivia walked towards her voice, saying that there was still a reason she had eaten herself.


    Meanwhile, the library of the forest.


    When I saw Olivia eaten by a book made to tell the history of the Marine Forest, everyone''s face turned pale.


    One, Levi, was about to become a horseback rider, and he said, "Give Olivia back!" I''m sticking it in a book.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The silence in the room is probably because everyone is desperate about what to do.


    Aquastide was the first to open his mouth.


    "Keith, librarian, is there such a precedent...?"


    ¡°There shouldn''t be¡±


    I''m new to this, and there''s no record of a book with a will.


    Apparently, we don''t have any leads at the moment.


    The books that Levi seized are jittery, but they don''t feel like malice. So, Aquastide thinks it''s tricky. As the book said, what I wanted was'' knowledge ''.


    "Miss Olivia''s knowledge of the Marine Forest is probably one of the highest in this country..."


    Not to mention the fact that historians are no less important, they will also have a lot of information that scholars do not know.


    ¡°Yes, no historian is better than Olivia.¡±


    "Levi..."


    Proudly nodding Levy, Aquastide stopped with words and looked at the book, "What''s the matter?"


    This book was talking when I swallowed Olivia. Could it be that you can communicate with your will? ¡±


    Tiara Rose slowly approached the book and spoke to her.


    Hey, can you talk? Tell me what''s going on with Lord Olivia. "


    Watashi is a book that spins history. I wanted to know more, and I swallowed her with a lot of knowledge.


    "-"!


    Everyone breathed in a voice that directly resounded in their brain.


    Apparently, as Tiara Rose thought, this book has a consciousness. And greedy for knowledge.


    I need her knowledge to make a perfect history book.


    "I''ll take it...? What is Olivia doing now...?!"


    In response to Levy''s impatient voice, the book answers with a pale voice.


    I will return it as soon as I have the knowledge. I don''t know how many days or years after that.


    "What year...!?"


    You can''t do that! I have to get Olivia out of here somehow...... ¡±


    It is okay to cooperate to complete a history book, but we cannot be trapped in a book for years without permission.


    Tiara Rose bites her lips and squeezes the book. It is important to make a history book, but it is not made at the expense of someone.


    Levi put his hand on the book and said, "Shall I tear it off...?" It''s a noisy thing to say. "


    ¡±Why don''t we get into the book somehow? Then we could save Lord Olivia."


    Tiara Rose thinks that entering a book to help someone is a common situation.


    "Tiara, that''s just too dangerous. What are you going to do if you can''t come back?"


    I was told by Aquastide to stop immediately.... but we can''t even pull back the Tiara Rose. Olivia is a dear friend.


    ---This is also the fault of the confectionery ring.


    Aqua, I want to help Olivia. Will you help me?


    "...... I don''t think you can say anything about that face."


    Aquastide, who understood everything with the expression of Tiara Rose, agreed to cooperate with the "I can''t help it".


    "You two...!" Thank you. We must rescue Olivia. ¡±


    Levi thanked Tiara Rose and Aquastide, who had decided to help Olivia, and spoke to the book in a terribly cold voice.


    ¡°I have the same level of knowledge as Olivia. Tiara Rose, the fairy king, and Aquastide, the starry sky king. Each is beneficial to you. Come on, let''s swallow it too."


    I don''t care if I have more knowledge.


    The book opened the page wide and swallowed Tiara Rose, Aquastide, and Levy.


    "...... Master Aquastide, Master Tiara Rose!!"


    Elliot, who was left behind, rummaged towards the book, but did not reply.


    "Wake up, Master Tiara Rose."


    "Nh, nh...?"


    Levi shook his body and Tiara Rose''s consciousness surfaced.


    Apparently, she was unconscious because of the shock in the book. When I looked next to him, Aquastide had just woken up in the same way.


    "Is this... in a book?"


    "Sounds like it." It looks like Olivia isn''t around..... "


    Levi looked around lightly and dropped his shoulder. I knew you''d see Olivia soon enough.


    ¡°Tiara, be careful not to leave me, as it may be dangerous.¡±


    Yes.


    For the time being, we must grasp what the world like this is like in the woods. However, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.


    "Eh...!?"


    What''s going on?


    Is this near the border with the Lapis Lazuli Kingdom?


    Instead of being in the woods, the Tiara Roses were close to the border between the Marine Forest Kingdom and the Lapis Lazuli Kingdom, as Levi told them. In the distance, you can see the beach and smell the sea breeze.


    As the Tiara Roses watched their surroundings vigilantly, the carriage caught sight of them. It seems to be coming from the Lapis lazuli kingdom side, heading for the beach.


    It''s a luxurious carriage, so it must be an aristocrat on it.


    - Listen to me, or if you can take me to a nearby town--


    Maybe we can figure something out. It was Tiara Rose who thought so, but she often looked at the carriage and took a breath. Because the carriage looked familiar.


    Inadvertently holds his mouth down and takes a step back. Then I bumped into Aquasteed behind me, but he quickly supported me.


    "Aqua, that carriage..."


    Yeah.


    It looked like AquaStead was thinking the same thing as Tiara Rose. Levi is the only one who doesn''t seem to understand, and he''s staring at the carriage for whatever it is.


    "Isn''t this an ordinary carriage used by the nobility?" It''s a luxurious category, but... "


    Saying that, Levi blinked his eyes. I knew what Tiara Rose and Aquastide wanted to say. Or rather, it was the person who showed his face through the window that made me understand.


    Tiara Rose and His Majesty Aquastide are on board.


    "... that carriage was on it when I brought Tiara back from the lapis lazuli."


    There are also escorts and servants in the carriage that follows behind. Perhaps Filine and Elliot were there too.


    "This is... a history book"


    It doesn''t just appear to be written down, it seems to be recording what happened. Tiara Rose thinks it''s like watching a recorded video.


    When I go to the beach, I meet Ishira, and I can''t bear to get along with Aquastide, and I meet the fairies of the forest when Tiara Rose is alone.


    It''s nostalgic, but it feels embarrassing because it''s about me when I was young.


    I wanted to turn my face... and when I thought about it, I heard a book directly in my head.


    Since the three of you have come into me, the decisive history of the Marine Forest will gradually be buried. Thank you.


    For the book, knowledge seems to be the memory of the Tiara Roses.


    I want to keep a record of the moment when the Starry King''s Queen set foot in the Marine Forest.


    The scene was replaced by the royal castle.


    In the room where the bright coral chandelier lit up, a baby with dark blue hair was fast asleep.


    There were people in the immediate vicinity, and they seemed reluctant, but apparently they didn''t see the Tiara Roses.


    Tiara Rose and the others look at each other and go to the baby.


    "--This child..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Seeing a baby asleep feeling good, Tiara Rose turns her gaze to Aqua Steed, just beside her. But Aquastide remained silent.


    --I have a face...!


    Maybe this baby is an Aquastide!? I think Tiara Rose.


    In a world without cameras, you can only see pictures. As a result, Tiara Rose''s tension rises when she actually sees her baby''s Aquastide.


    ¡±Aqua, aqua, this kid... aqua, right?¡±


    Tiara Rose asked excitedly, and Aquastide nodded with embarrassment.


    - I knew it!


    It''s not Olivia, but she''s moved too much, and she''s bleeding her nose. Tiara Rose holds down her mouth and turns into a cute sleeping baby Aquastide.


    "Baby Aqua, she''s so cute."


    I''m driven by the urge to hold a small hand, but I have to endure it. Tiara Rose takes several deep breaths to calm her feelings.


    But, can I just touch it a little bit...? That''s why Tiara Rose reaches out and touches her baby Aquastide''s hand... so bad. Even if I tried to touch it, I got through and couldn''t touch it.


    "Oh no! You can''t even touch me!"


    It was like a hologram.


    Tiara Rose was stunned and stared at her at least to burn her eyes if she couldn''t touch it.


    --Aqua had long eyelashes around this time.


    I can''t see my beautiful golden eyes because I''m asleep, but grace comes through. She must be raised with a lot of love.


    - I wanted to meet Aqua when I was little.


    Eating sweets together, reading books, talking... I think I would have enjoyed playing like that.


    --Because I was just being swayed by Hartnights when I was a child...


    Remember your past for a moment, and Tiara Rose''s eyes will be distant. I didn''t always have bad memories, but I struggled a lot.


    When I looked at the baby''s aquasteed, I felt that it was rewarding for the trouble. Tiara Rose feels her cheeks become loose and she thinks her baby''s Aquastide cheeks seem very soft.


    --You ''ll really regret not touching me...!


    "Tiara, I''m embarrassed to be seen so much..."


    "Ah... but it''s Aqua!" If you miss this opportunity, you may never see it again. ¡±


    I want to see more, and it''s so cute that I can see it forever. I can''t wait to see it.


    "If you don''t show me Tiara''s baby, it won''t fit..."


    "My childhood is a lapis lazuli..."


    I''m afraid I can''t see it in this book. After all, this is the history of the Marine Forest.


    But when I said that, the scene switched again.


    "Ahh, that''s not true...!"


    Even though I still wanted to enjoy myself, Tiara Rose was shocked.


    This time the place is a rocky mountain with rustles and few trees. The ore is rolling around, so it''s probably a place where there''s not much people coming in.


    "What is this place...?"


    Is it a place that Aqua can''t remember?


    Looking around, Aquastide had no idea. Of course, it wasn''t even in Tiara Rose.


    And then the rest...... and Levi.


    This is where I was training.


    Levi said that and pointed at the rock. It''s a boulder that''s about five meters long, but if you look closely, you can see that it has a mark that looks like a cut.


    Levi''s weapon, which specializes in dark weapons, was a dagger, so it quickly became clear that it was a wound from it.


    As Tiara Rose looked at the rock, "Wow...", a knife pierced through her body.


    Aaah!


    Tiara!!


    "Ahhh, ahhh... it''s okay. I''m sorry I couldn''t touch anything in this world, but I''m glad I can''t touch it now..."


    Dodd and his heart are making unpleasant noises.


    Ah, it''s me.


    Eh


    In Levi''s voice, Tiara Rose and Aquastide looked behind them. There was Levi at a young age with a dagger. My hair is not all-back, it is kind of fresh because I can see how young it is.


    "I asked Olivia to give me some time for training." Of course, Olivia was well taken care of. ¡±


    "I guess so..."


    The Tiara Roses watched as Levi took care of Olivia, but it was a little strange to be apart for training.


    At a young age, Levi practiced muscle training, handled daggers, and read and studied martial arts books. Although Levi usually looked cool, he was actually quite a hard worker.


    Since then, several scenes have changed, and looking at Aquastide''s childhood, it was in the basement of the Royal Castle that he eventually reached.


    There is a brightness of the candle, but it is still not very well seen because it is dim and the eyes are not used to it.


    "This is... I wonder when it''s underground."


    In some cases, Ferres and Lige are here because the sights you''ve seen are fragmented.


    Tiara Rose stared at her and saw a figure.


    Olivia!


    Levi! His Majesty Aquastide, Tiara Rose!


    Somewhere I was relieved, I saw Olivia, as Levi had called her. His eyes were filled with tears.


    "......! Is something wrong, Olivia?"


    Olivia slowly shook her head... as Tiara Rose and Aquastide rushed to worry. There was Ferrez.


    "It''s all right, Lige." I''ll be here forever. "


    Ferrez''s tears could be seen in Ferrer''s eyes.


    Apparently, this place is a long time older than Tiara Rose knew. Ferrez''s air is heavy, and he even feels desperate.


    "Lady Olivia, I''m glad you''re safe... but how long have you been here?"


    "... my role is like an objective flow line when there is a big movement in history. I talked about the underground passage of the Imperial Castle and Lord Ferrez."


    As a result, he came under the royal castle and looked at Ferres'' records.


    Olivia explained that since this sight was originally included in the history of Marine Forest, it can be seen without any problems.


    "That said, it''s probably not a good idea for others to look at it with their shoes....."


    "... I see."


    Tiara Rose nodded in agreement with Olivia.


    Olivia wipes her eyes with her handkerchief and says, "Shall we go home?" Until now, I was here because of force majeure, but now that the Tiara Roses are here, the knowledge I wanted for the book must have been supplemented.


    "I told you that I might need Olivia every few years... but it was solved in such a short time...?"


    Pure wonder, Tiara Rose turns her puzzled expression to Olivia. Aquastide also looked at Olivia, ¡°I knew I needed a lot of knowledge...¡±


    "Ah, if that''s the case... I''ve given you my strategy book."


    Is that the strategy book that was in Olivia''s villa?


    "Yes, sir."


    Olivia nodded with a doya face.


    Strategy Book - This is the [Lapis Lazuli Ring] strategy book that contains everything Olivia remembers from her previous life.


    It is the supreme book with various information about this underground passage as well as evacuation routes known only to royalty. It''s no exaggeration to say that Olivia''s knowledge is all over the place.


    --that''s why you were able to shorten your time.


    Perhaps without the strategy book, it would have taken years, as the book said.


    "I have to thank Lord Olivia for her strategy book." Thank you, Master Olivia. "


    ¡°No, I have never been more privileged to have my knowledge useful in the history books of the forest archives.¡±


    Anytime, any day, any year! Tiara rose bitterly said to Olivia that she wanted herself to be weighed down there.

 203 8. Grimoire

    Oh, you''re back.


    "Master Aquastide, Master Tiara Rose...!" I''m glad you''re okay...!! "


    Welcome back ~


    When the Tiara Roses came out of the book, there was Keith, who graciously drank tea, Elliot, who was worried and had tears in his eyes, and the librarian who observed the book.


    As far as Elliot goes, it doesn''t seem to be that long. There is also a tea cup on the table that was used by the Tiara Roses. Next to it was a shortcake of mackerel that didn''t exist earlier.


    ¡°Elliot, has anything changed while we were in the book?¡±


    "No, I didn''t have anything in particular." The time was about three hours, but the book was adorable. On the way, the confectionery fairies delivered me a cake of mackerel. "


    It was so delicious, Elliot replied with a nice smile.


    Looking at Elliot like that, Tiara Rose is worried about the cake. However, I don''t care about the cake now, so I have to put up with it.


    It looks like nothing happened here, so I''m relieved.


    ¡°I see. If we made it out of here - is the history book complete?¡±


    When Aquastide looks at the book, the librarian says, "It''s done!" I thought it would take more time, but I made a book with magic power, so it doesn''t seem like a human being would make a book from scratch. "


    When the librarian closed the book, the flower groove wrapped around the book and acted as a key. It seems like you won''t be able to open it on your own.


    I''ve finished the contents, so I won''t do anything of my own.


    "Then we will believe it." In the meantime, it''s got a title, too. "


    There was nothing on the cover earlier, but now it says "Marine Forest History". I saw that it was really finished.


    I''d really like to put on a camera for security... right?


    I don''t like being cramped.


    "Right. I''m new to a book with a will, but I don''t think I''d feel comfortable being restrained on my own." This is going to be your house, will you stay?


    When the librarian asked the book, he said, "If you care, it''s fine." In response, the librarians, as well as the Tiara Roses, gently stroked their hearts.


    As expected, if you can go out on your own, a book is flying in the air! and the city will be in a fuss.


    Olivia looked seriously at the book and said, "It''s kind of tasteless to call it a book." I don''t think Tiara Rose would be able to distinguish herself from other things if she called it a book, which is hard to understand.


    --In other words, it''s called a history book...


    Somehow, it still doesn''t taste good. Then Olivia said, "That''s right!¡± he clapped his hands.


    "It''s a living book, and it feels like a grimoire... what about [Grimoire]?" It''s a fantasy iron plate! "


    ¡°It''s definitely easy to call, and I''ve never seen any other book called Grimoire.¡±


    Tiara Rose agrees with Olivia that it''s a good idea. Aquastead, Keith, the librarian, and Elliot nodded, ¡°I like it.¡±


    Well, that''s a pretty good name.


    Looks like Grimoire himself liked the book. The Marine Forest History Book was named Grimoire.


    "Huh... somehow it feels like a single paragraph."


    What are you talking about? This is the real thing!


    Huh?


    The librarian shook his head as Tiara Rose tried to sit on the chair. Looks like there''s still work to be done.


    But Tiara Rose doesn''t know what to do.


    From the grimoire, I will create a new book with an excerpt of the parts that are generally accessible. It''s a Marine Forest history book that anyone can read. "


    "I see... there are only a few people who can read grimoires." You mean to make a history book based on grimoires that anyone can read? ¡±


    That''s right.


    It''s fun from here, and the librarian laughs. It looks like we''ve picked some new leaves and are already getting ready to make a book.


    Grimoire, can you help me make a lot of nice books?


    "Hmm... well, that''s fine."


    Nhehe, thank you ~!


    When the librarian took on the role of grimoire, he went to the back room with the "worker". Looks like we''re working alone, and the Tiara Roses are all alone.


    Of those, Olivia was the only one who said, "I''m here for you!" I saw off the librarian with glittering eyes.


    "You must be tired, how about a cup of tea?" There is also a sweet fairy shortcake. "


    ¡°Yeah, let''s do that. Levi, please be ready."


    Yes.


    Levy nodded and quickly prepared the tea.


    The confectioner''s fairy shortcake is decorated with lovely flowers, and black tea is filled with a small amount of honey instead of sugar.


    "Wow, looks delicious!" That''s a sweet fairy. "


    Until now, it was hard to get Olivia into a book, but now that the sweets are in front of me, all the pain is in the water. You should enjoy this shortcake now.


    When Tiara Rose was eating the cake with a smile on her face, Keith said, ¡°That''s right.¡±


    "I forgot about the trouble earlier, but you should leave the ring at the sweets'' house soon." "Normally, I wouldn''t be taken by anyone, but it''s Tiara..." If you tell me to exchange it for a delicious treat, I''ll give it to you. "


    "Keith! No matter what I do, I won''t do it!"


    It''s certainly an attractive proposition, but you can make your own delicious treats. A new treat that hasn''t appeared in the world, and Tiara Rose doesn''t even know it at all... it might make you feel quite uncomfortable, but it''s not like that.


    "It''s okay, Tiara. I''m not going to lose any of my rings because I''m with you."


    "Thank you, Aqua"


    Tiara Rose nods to Aquastide''s words, and Olivia says, ¡°I''ll protect the ring with Tiara! Even if the bandits come, I''ll take them out!" I''m enthusiastic.


    As expected of a bandit, Tiara Rose smiled as she thanked herself.


    After Keith''s castle, the Tiara Roses arrived at the sweet home.


    The sun is falling completely, and it''s getting dark around here. Lucia Rose, Shtilka, and Shtilio may be lonely in the Royal Castle if they don''t get home early after putting down their rings.


    --It''s going to bother Philine who''s watching.


    Tiara Rose waved at the confectionary fairy.


    I''m going to bother you a little bit.


    Ah, King ~!


    Welcome to the sweet home!


    Let''s have a sweet party ~


    "Sweet Party!?"


    What a fascinating invitation, Tiara Rose''s heart shakes. The sweets fairy is like a party of sweets, so there must be some sweet treats waiting for you.


    Tiara Rose''s legs fluttered as she turned towards the confectionery fairies, ¡°Tiara?" I was hugged from behind.


    Unfortunately, we can''t afford to have a sweets party.


    "Oh no..."


    I was shocked by Aquastide''s words. "Even though it''s an invitation from the sweet fairy, I can''t accept it..."


    Oh, no?


    There are new sweets, too?


    "Shinzaku''s crazy..."


    Tiara Rose shook her head as if to take away her troubles, even though she had inadvertently repeated them.


    "I''m very happy with your invitation, but today I have to leave the ring." It''s too late, isn''t it? Lucia and the others are going to miss you. "


    I see...


    Well then, what about tomorrow?!


    Oh, then we can prepare new sweets and bake cookies!


    The fairies said that and showed excitement, and said, "What about those sweets? '''' That''s the one with the bowl! ''What''s that?'' ''Let''s bake the biggest cookie in the world!'' and have a pleasant conversation.


    Whether the Tiara Roses come or not, it seems that tomorrow''s sweet party is decided among the fairies.


    Olivia and Elliot immediately take out their notebooks and confirm tomorrow''s plans for Tiara Rose and Aquastide.


    "Tomorrow... there is a temporary sewing of the dress, but there is no problem because it is in the morning. If it''s lunchtime, you can join the sweet party!"


    "Master Aquastide will have an inspection in the morning." The rest is paperwork, so it''ll be easy to adjust. ¡±


    Excellent attendance made it possible to attend the sweet party tomorrow.


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide look at each other and smile. I''m sure Lucia Rose, Shtilka, and Shtilio will be delighted.


    Well then, I''ll let you get in the way tomorrow.


    Yeah! I''ll get you the best treats!


    "Thank you."


    The tiara rose can''t stop ringing in her chest, the best treat from a candy fairy. I wish it would be sooner tomorrow, so I''m happy.


    - I came to put the ring down!


    Even though I had to perform my important role as the fairy king of sweets, what terrifying magic power is sweets?


    Tiara Rose coughs really lightly and looks at Aquastide and the others.


    I''ll set up the ring.


    ¡°Yeah, we''ll be waiting here, so don''t worry about the time.¡±


    "Yes, thank you, Aqua"


    I already made a room for the Fairy King''s ring.


    The attic of the confectionery house is a place where you can see the royal castle from the window of the room. I think it would be nice to know that the Fairy King of Confectionery and the Fairy of Confectionery are always thinking about Marine Forest.


    In the attic, you climb a sweets ladder. The roof is made of cute round windows and log-roasted cookies. There is only a pedestal for placing the ring in the room, and I am anxious.


    After seeing the fun and cute interior of the confectionery house, you may feel a little lonely, but - Tiara Rose thinks it''s good to stay like this.


    "... maybe one day someone will get me this ring?"


    When I think about it, my smile unexpectedly disappears.


    It was a secret place that only those who had the blessing of the Fairy King of sweets could reach.


    "Yeah, but I''m not blessing anyone..."


    Tiara Rose bitterly said that no one could reach her at the moment. But I''m sure one day I''ll give somebody a blessing.


    "Because it''s really rare for a fairy king to bless someone..."


    Tiara Rose softly placed the ring on the pedestal and left the attic behind.

 204 9. One settling party

    After the Tiara Roses placed the Fairy King''s Ring in the sweets'' home, the Fairy of the Sweets arrived to deliver the invitation for the candy party tomorrow.


    Filene and Olivia were there, so they invited everyone.


    Elliot said, "Everyone!? We have to work overtime today and advance our work...", but Aquastide and the others took care of all the overtime, so overtime was avoided.


    Elliot returned to the Mansion in a carriage with his wife Filine and his son Cristore, and his tired and sleepy daughters Finn and Elene.


    When she arrived at the Mansion, Filene instructed the maid to leave her two daughters to sleep. Filene is holding Cristore in her arms.


    ¡°Good job, Elliot. I''m looking forward to the party at the candy house tomorrow.¡±


    ¡°Yes. I''m sorry I''m late, Filine.¡±


    Elliot received Cristore from Filine and said, "Did you have a good time?¡± He gives her a tall, tall face and puts her down on the floor.


    Ahh!


    Kristore smiled loudly and nodded loudly.


    The first son of Elliot and Philine, the eldest son of Cristore. I was playing with Lucia Rose, Shtilka, and Shtilio today. Since she is one of the twins, she is two years old.


    There''s a lot of fun going on right now, and I''m having fun hanging out in the Mansion. That''s why Philine is always so restless.


    Filene squatted down and stroked her head as she gazed at Crestore.


    Tomorrow, I''m inviting you to my sweet home, so let''s make it up to you.


    There are three siblings who have made a tailor-made product, so Filine thinks she should dress them. I was sorry I didn''t get a chance to wear it, but I''m glad I did.


    Elliot agrees immediately that it''s "good."


    Tomorrow we will have an inspection of Master Aquastide. I will pick you up after that, so please wait at home.


    But isn''t it hard for Elliot to pick you up?


    It''s no problem for Filine to take her three children directly to the confectionery house. But Elliot shook his head.


    "My wife''s escort is her husband''s prerogative." Don''t take that opportunity away. ¡±


    ¨D¨D


    Filene''s cheeks were dyed by Elliot, who said that she was a little stiff. Because I didn''t expect you to say that.


    Elliot takes great care of Filine and her children, but she is still busy at work. Philine was trying not to be a burden to Elliot. So, I''m very glad to see something like this, like Elliot''s care, like a monopoly greed.


    Elliot''s face turns red when she sees Filine dyeing her cheeks. I didn''t expect Filine to react that much.


    "Filine..."


    Elliot slowly reaches out and touches Filine''s cheek. It was getting a little hot, and I felt my heart beat faster.


    "Ah! Um, Elliot... um..."


    Filene''s heart beats faster as well, but there''s a Crestor at her feet. He looks up at me with a dazzling face. As a result, Filine''s face became even more red as she was embarrassed.


    Elliot seems to have noticed what Filine is trying to say, and he says he has lost his eyes.


    ¡°Let''s go back to the room and take our time.¡±


    "... yes..."


    Filine nodded to Elliot''s suggestion as she stroked her chest relieved and her face blushed.


    "Since we had dinner at the Royal Castle, let''s take a bath at the Cristore." Elliot, can I ask you a favor? "


    Absolutely.


    ¡°Thank you. In the meantime, I''ll prepare for tomorrow''s gift.¡±


    "Excuse me, please."


    Seeing Elliot off to the bath with Cristor, Filine called the Coral Cia butler to prepare for tomorrow''s souvenirs.


    "Mother, hurry, hurry!"


    You don''t have to hurry so much, Lucia.


    Lucia Rose jumped out of the carriage and ran in a straight line toward the confectionery house without stopping Tiara Rose.


    After that, "Wait ~" Shtilka and Shtilio chased.


    Immediately, the confectionery fairies came out of the confectionery house, and they welcomed the children and gave them an assortment of welcome treats.


    ¡±Fufu, you''re exhausted, aren''t you?¡±


    I see. Lucia and the others are happy.


    As Tiara Rose and Aquastide got out of the carriage and spoke, the second and third carriages came. Olivia and Philine were on board.


    "Haha, home of sweets! It''s evolving again!!"


    Olivia is the Tension Max from the beginning, and it seems to confirm how the confectionery house has evolved. I''m sure we''ll put together a record.


    No one would stand next to Olivia in the amount of knowledge in the Marine Forest. Olivia also has the right to read the Grimoire freely, as she helped write the history books.


    Olivia, the window sill is a marble chocolate.


    "It''s true!! It looks very delicious"


    Levi sketches and examines how the confectionery house has changed. This is going to take a long time.


    With a smile on Olivia and Levi''s face, Philine and the others descended from the carriage. Filene joins hands with Cristore and Elliot escorts her.


    "Wow, you''re so big!"


    Kristore looks up at the confectionery house and opens her mouth wide. Then, the sweet fairy who had cracked the gap threw Boro into his mouth.


    "Nh! Delicious!"


    It''s delicious! Come here!


    Yeah!


    The confectionery fairy gathered and took Kristore into the confectionery house. They must have led us to Lucia Rose and the others.


    Filene held Finn from the carriage, and Elliot took Elene, who was sleeping in the cradle.


    Tiara Rose goes to Filene and smiles, ¡°I''ve been waiting for you.¡±


    You''re both sleeping soundly, aren''t you?


    "Yes, I''ve been sleeping all my life on the move, so I''ve been very helpful."


    That''s right.


    Tiara Rose and Filine laugh together because it''s hard to weep in a carriage. It used to be hard when Lucia Rose stumbled around in the carriage.


    As they talked, the Confectionery Fairy and the Forest Fairy came.


    Welcome!


    Welcome!


    "Thank you for inviting me."


    As Tiara Rose and Filine greet the fairies, they hear a buzzing voice inside.


    "Let''s go, Filine."


    Yes.


    Aquastide and Elliot walked in with Keith, Claire, and Pearl, as well as the Fairies of the Sky and the Sea. Apparently, the sweets fairy invited everyone.


    For a sweets party bigger than she imagined, Tiara Rose''s eyes were rolled up. I brought a cake as a souvenir, but this number wasn''t enough - I thought so, and I saw a lot of cake on the table, so I smiled unnecessarily.


    Cakes, cookies, and Madeleine''s chocolates line the table. On the contrary, they seem to be making something more and more new.


    I was thrilled by the plethora of sweets, thinking that I would never be able to eat Tiara Rose.


    Grimoire Completion Party!


    Have fun!


    Huh, it was the Grimoire''s finishing party?


    Tiara Rose listens back to the words of an unexpected fairy. Then the librarian came along with the forest fairy.


    ¡±Nhehe, I told you! When he came to thank me for the shortcake, he told me that it was safely completed... and that he would celebrate at today''s sweet party."


    "That''s right."


    The confectionery fairy who heard the librarian''s words nodded, yes, yes.


    Our king did his best, so we have to party!


    Even the important ring is complete!


    One thing settled?


    Yes, yes!


    The fairies exchanged information with each other, and today''s sweet party was completed with grimoire and settled into a sweet party.


    Tiara Rose smiles at Aquastide and Elliott, and once again thanks the librarian and the fairies.


    Thank you. I''m going to have a good time today.


    ''We are the ones to thank. History books... Thank you for helping us out for Grimoire. I will continue to take good care of the library, so please come and visit me anytime. "


    Yeah.


    I nodded to the words of the librarian and promised to go play.


    Then, Tiara Rose offered the fairies what she was preparing to say "yes."


    "It''s a souvenir cake. Let''s all eat this too.¡±


    ¡°From me and Elliot, it''s fruit tea. The sweetness is modest, so I think it will go well with the sweets.¡±


    Wow, thank you!


    When the Confectionery Fairy received her souvenirs from Tiara Rose and Filine, they immediately began to line up. The table is so filled with sweets that there are no more places to put them.


    Olivia came in and said, "I''m sorry to bother you." Apparently, the candy expert''s reflections and sketches were successfully completed.


    However, unlike before, Levi was carrying a large object wrapped in sackcloth. Its height is greater than Levi''s height and is lighter than two meters.


    - Something wrong?


    Not only the confectionery fairies, but also the forest, the sky, and the sea fairies gathered around the luggage, saying, "Big ~."


    "This is a souvenir you invited today." Please accept it. "


    Thank you!


    When Olivia gave the signal, Levi took the sackcloth and showed it to her.


    "Wow, ahhhh!! This is the best chestnut ever!!"


    It''s going to be an ingredient in sweets!


    Soon, the forest fairy and the candy fairy cheered. --That''s right, the package Levy was carrying was a chestnut tree.


    ¨D ¨D I''ve never heard of a tree as a souvenir!?


    Tiara Rose blinks her eyes in amazement, but Olivia is proud of her heart.


    "This chestnut tree produces very large fruits. Once you use it on your ingredients, you can make a Mont Blanc that will taste so good that your cheeks will fall off!¡±


    Oh!


    A great applause arose from the confectionery fairy. It seems that this chestnut tree was the most delightful of the handicrafts.


    Let''s plant it in the confectionery garden!


    Over here, over here!


    Yes!


    Olivia and Levi walked out into the garden, greeted by the confectioner''s fairy and the forest fairy.


    "Aqua, I''ve brought you some good wine!" I tried and made it from petals and fruits. "


    Keith raised his hand lightly and called for Aquastide. In his hand was a bottle of liquor, as Keith had told him. It has a thin and stylish construction with a flower lid.


    Pearl was stunned to see it.


    "It''s a sweet, so let''s make it a tapioca milk tea!" I didn''t know you drank alcohol at all. "


    You must be the one who doesn''t know how good oko-chan booze is


    "What are you talking about!?"


    Pearl opened his eyes to Keith''s story and said, "I don''t think so!" I grabbed the glass and poured the flower wine into the glass and drank it all at once.


    I can''t afford this!


    Pearl!


    Claire is in a hurry to get some water for Pearl to drink, but her face is already red.


    "You know, if you drink it all at once, you won''t enjoy it..." Claire, tell him how to drink alcohol. "


    That''s right.


    When Keith told him, Claire smiled bitterly. I''ve never thought of giving Pearl a drink, but I can''t wait for this to happen in the future. Claire decided to prepare a good drink to drink with Pearl.


    "It''s going to be hard to get mixed up there."


    "Ahahah..."


    Aquastide bitterly smiled, so did Tiara Rose. The alcohol seems delicious, but now it will undoubtedly be entangled in pearls.


    How are the Lucia Roses doing? When I moved my gaze, it was like a children''s space for sweets, and I was playing there. There were four of them: Lucia Rose, Shtilka, Shtilio, and Cristore.


    There are balls, rattle, and other toys nearby, along with some fairies.


    Right next to it is a small table and chairs for children, with a bite-sized cake and cut fruit on top. It seems that the confectionery fairy cared about the ingredients and the size so that the children could eat it easily.


    Fuha, knight Lucia Rose will not forgive evil!


    Wow, ahhh


    As Lucia Rose swung her sword, Shtilka and the others collapsed, saying, "I''ve been hit!" Looks like he was playing knightly.


    "Ugh, Princess Elene won''t do it!"


    The princess will get it back!


    Apparently, Elene, who was sleeping in the cradle, was acting as a princess on her own. Now, Elliot is holding on to it, and he is unexpectedly looking at Elene, who has become a princess.


    After a while, Lucia and the others started making tea at a small table. They are eating the cake in a friendly and delicious way.


    The kids are having a good time.


    ¡°Oh, let''s take it easy while we get the treats, too.¡±


    Yes.


    Nodding to Aquastide''s words, Tiara Rose took the seat that the fairies had prepared for her while escorting her.


    I ate delicious sweets and the party lasted until night.

 205 10. Time for two

    A very pleasant party was a quick passage of time.


    The children are tired and fall asleep in the flower bed, and Pearl, who has drunk all at once, is drunk and leaning over Claire''s shoulder.


    Keith was drinking flower wine with a pinch of sweets, but now he seems to be relaxed drinking flower tea. He seems to be making fun of Claire.


    Olivia''s eyes sparkle and she talks to the sweet fairy. Until now, the fairies of the forest, the sky, and the sea hated me, so I had no choice but to have fun.


    "Unfortunately, I''m still not near Olivia except for the candy fairy..."


    Levi is nicking next to Olivia like that.


    Filine and Elliot smile bitterly, ¡°You''re full,¡± and gently stroke the heads of sleeping Finn and Elene.


    Cristor was sleeping with Lucia Rose and now he''s having a good dream.


    - That was really exciting.


    Seeing everyone, Tiara Rose giggles.


    Not only did I talk about Grimoire and Olivia''s knowledge, but I also talked about what kind of sweets would be popular this time, how the forest would look like, and so on.


    When I looked next to it, Aquastide loosened his cheeks and watched the children.


    "Aqua"


    "Hmm? What''s wrong, Tiara?"


    Tiara Rose calls out in a whisper, and Aquastide replies in a whisper.


    "The children are being watched by the fairy, and everyone is slowing down... why don''t you take a seat?"


    When I pull the sleeve of Aquastide, "Of course" comes back to me. Aquastide said, "Where are you taking me?" It''s kind of fun. "


    "I won''t tell you until I get there."


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide sneaked past the party venue that was still going on. Because it is exuberant, no one notices when they are gone.


    After opening the cookie door and going down the hallway, there was a staircase going up to the second floor. Tiara Rose said, "This way," and she held hands with Aquastide.


    At the end of the second hallway.


    But there''s only a wall there, if you look at Aquastide. I wondered if I wanted to bring him here, and I tilted my neck.


    "The Fairy King of Confectionery... I''ve given you my permission to put it in."


    Tiara Rose said that, and even a thin door floated up on the empty wall. If you don''t realize that there is a door here, you can''t even notice it.


    Isn''t it amazing how you can do this?


    Tiara Rose smiles at the admiring voice of Aquastide, ¡°Good job.¡±


    ¡°Here you go - this is my room and Aqua''s room.¡±


    Tiara Rose tells everyone that the prank was a success. This place is not easily noticed by sweets fairies.


    "Ours?"


    Yes.


    "... a room that no one knows but me and Aqua."


    Inside the room, the walls are made of sweets, but the flower sofa is decorated with a leaf table and tiara rose flowers.


    You can see the sea from the window, so you can forget about your work and relax.


    Of course there is plenty of time for two in the Imperial Castle, but sometimes it''s okay to have such an atmosphere. And Tiara Rose thought.


    You may feel anxious because you don''t know what''s going on with the children and the outside world, but as long as you''re inside, Tiara Rose, the confectionary fairy king, will know everything. Although it is easier to feel the appearance of a cat, there is no problem with being a human.


    Aquastide looked around the room and saw a lot of things.


    It''s kind of like a secret base, isn''t it?


    It''s fun, that''s it.


    A secret base known only to Tiara Rose and Aquastide. It''s a place where you can bring what you like and have a relaxing time.


    ¡°Is there anything Aqua would like to put here? It could be something you like or something you remember from your family.¡±


    Tiara Rose also thinks about what she would put down.


    You can decorate the ornaments you brought with you when you came to your daughter-in-law from Lapis Lazuli, or you can hang a picture of the whole family on the wall.


    The kitchen is stocked with sweets, so it might be a good idea to stock it with lots of tea leaves. I want to ask the forest fairy to prepare some flower tea, and I want to leave the coral tea I got from Pearl.


    As Tiara Rose imagined it, Aquastide pulled out her hand and sat her down on the flower chair, saying, "That''s fun."


    "If you think about it, it won''t stop." The secret base felt like a child''s privilege, but even adults are excited enough. When I went to the future, Luca and Rio had a secret base in the woods. ¡±


    I could feel the warmth of handmade dishes made from wood. I wish Aquastide and I could create such a space.


    "I... I see, it might be a good idea to arrange your favorite books."


    "Books! That''s good. I love it, too."


    "I think I''ve been reading it since I was a child." Recently, it''s been a lot of material, so it seems like it would be fun to read here. ¡±


    The books in this world are mostly hardcover and well decorated. In that case, there must have been a certain number of people who said that they could not produce a lot of books, but that collecting books was a hobby.


    Now, the librarian said that the leaf book from the forest library could be lent, so it might be good to borrow it and read it.


    - If you want to read a book, you need sweets and tea.


    It might be a good idea to stock up on tea leaves and prepare something like a refrigerator. Warm tea in winter and chilled iced tea in summer. I think it would be nice to have a freezer and make some ice cream.


    I suddenly felt my gaze as I was thinking a lot about Tiara Rose. I raised my face and Aquastide stared at me.


    "Aqua!?


    No, I enjoyed watching Tiara think about something.


    Aquastide laughs when he says he''s going to stare.


    "I''ve been thinking a lot about having a good reading time with Aqua. And yet, Aqua was watching me."


    As Tiara Rose swells her cheeks and complains, Aquastide bends over and kisses her on the forehead.


    Tiara can be seen for hours, and it''s strange because she doesn''t get tired of it.


    "I''m already... I can''t get tired of watching Aqua for hours."


    That''s what I''ve thought many times in Grimoire. The baby Aquastide was so adorable that he wanted to see it forever.


    How about sneaking out on your own this time? When Tiara Rose thought about it, Aquastide squeezed her cheeks with both hands.


    Tiara?


    What were you thinking? With Aquastide''s gaze, Tiara Rose realized that what she was thinking was finding out.


    Can Aqua read my mind?


    "If I can read it, I''ll lock Tiara up so she won''t go anywhere." My princess suddenly goes somewhere. "


    "Ugh..."


    Previously, there was a previous record of escaping from the Royal Castle in search of the Fairy King''s ring, so I can''t contest it. Even yesterday, I jumped into the Grimoire to help Olivia.


    --If you had read it in your heart, you would have been in a lot of trouble.


    With every nostalgia, Tiara Rose smiles. "But as for Aquastide, I didn''t feel like it was annoying..."


    ¡°Damn it, Lucia''s like Tiara, she''s going to jump everywhere.¡±


    "The dream of the future is a knight." Since you''re Aqua''s daughter, you''ll definitely be able to handle your sword better. I''m not very good at exercising..... "


    Since my previous life, I was a polar swinger in sweets and maiden games, so I moved my body a little, but I did not take time to exercise from myself.


    Therefore, I think from the bottom of my heart that only the motor nerves are similar to Aquastide, not myself.


    Aquastide put his hand on his chin and told him that he would need more from now on.


    "I''m leaving it to the maid now, but I''m going to need Lucia''s maid and sidekick as well." That said, as for the second daughter, it would be better to ask Elliot and Philine''s daughter. "


    "That''s right. Lucia''s hope is best, but she''s close to Cristore, and she''s cute about Finn and Elene." I hope you can wait for me to grow up and follow me. ¡±


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide could choose a maid or sidekick, but it would be better if they grew bigger.


    However, Aquastide chose the Guard Knight and always stood by at a distance. I don''t know what''s in the royal castle.


    I''m looking forward to growing the three of you.


    Yes.


    Nodding, Tiara Rose slowly extended her hands. I hugged Aquastide''s neck and rubbed my cheeks.


    Of course, it''s fun to talk about children, but I''d like to enjoy a little more of their time. That''s how Tiara Rose approached it.


    "Your hair is tickling."


    Aquastide puts his hands on both sides of the Tiara Rose and brings his face closer together. Tiara Rose closes her eyes, accepts it, and puts her strength into her hugging arm.


    "Nh..."


    Sweet exhales resound in the room, but only Tiara Rose and Aquastide are here.


    I was always thrilled when I slept with my children, so I felt a little lonely without it... but I thought it would be nice to be able to sweeten it, so Tiara Rose relaxed her cheeks.

 206 11. Time for reading

    "Ugh... being alone in the library is more leisure than I thought..."


    In the forest library, the stored grimoire sighed. When I had a librarian, I had him talk to me, but now I''m going to a party where I was invited by the candy fairy.


    That''s why Grimoire is alone in the woods'' archives.


    There were a few fairies in the forest, but the level of the fairies was too low for me to talk about.


    < However, I really wanted to do something because I had the will to do it...... >


    Isn''t it a waste just to have it stored in a bookshelf? Then Grimoire begins to think.


    My role is to write the history of the Marine Forest Kingdom.


    However, its history is long, and various knowledge is stored in it.


    I wonder if the most unusual of these is the existence of a fairy. It exists only in the Marine Forest and is unseen in other countries. On the contrary, spirits often live in countries other than the Marine Forest.


    There''s plenty of magic power, so I think I can use magic......


    Grimoire thought of it as < umm >.


    There was no magic I wanted to use. It''s hard to use fire to burn a book in a library. "


    If only someone could be my user... Grimoire sighed lonely in the quiet library, thinking like that.


    Tiara Rose, Tiara Rose, I think you''ll be relatively relaxed today.


    Some time after the party at the candy house, Olivia said happily. Recently, I was a little busier than usual with both Tiara Rose and Aquastide helping with parties and history books.


    In Olivia''s words, Tiara Rose nodded.


    ¡°Yes, I think it might be a good idea to hang out with Lucia and the others today and make sweets.¡±


    Take a stroll in the garden or hang out with the Lucialos. If you want to see the Knights trained, you can ask Talmo to show you around.


    But Olivia has a purpose. "Um..." she continued, twisting her index finger together.


    - Is there something you want to do?


    Thinking unusual, Tiara Rose listens to Olivia.


    "I want to go to the library in the forest."


    "It''s in the archives..."


    It says on Olivia''s face that she wants to go. There are definitely a lot of records out there, so it''s a place where gamers will be tickled.


    I wish I could have gone alone, but I''m a villainous daughter... and the fairies don''t like me anymore.


    "Master Olivia..."


    Although they had permission to enter the forest stores, Olivia and Levi lowered their brows and said that they didn''t want to annoy Keith or the forest fairies.


    - I don''t have any business, so maybe I can take Lucia and the others to the archives.


    Keith''s royal castle has a kitchen for snacks, and the forest fairies love Lucia Rose and often play with her.


    ¡°Let''s invite Lucia and the others to come with us to Keith.¡±


    Thank you, Tiara Rose!


    Ahhhh, my face brightened up, and Olivia said, "I''ll check it right away! Levi!" and left the room.


    "Fufu, it''s very lively with Lord Olivia."


    Tiara rose smiled and waited for Olivia to come back, preparing sweets to take with her as a souvenir.


    ¡°I''m so glad you''re getting ready for this.¡±


    That''s right.


    In Aquastide''s office, I was just about to lose my job. Elliot is loosening his cheeks as he looks at the last paperwork.


    When I put it away, the sound of a knock echoed in the room.


    Olivia.


    Here you go.


    As soon as Aquastide granted permission, Elliot opened the door and Olivia was invited. Levi, of course.


    ¡°Excuse me while you''re at work.¡±


    ¡°Never mind, what''s the matter?¡±


    ¡°I wanted to go to the library in the woods, so I asked for your permission.¡±


    To the archives?


    Olivia explains why she wants to go with Tiara Rose and Lucia Rose because she wants to read the books in the library, but the fairies don''t like her and it''s hard to get there.


    Aquastide quickly convinced himself and turned his gaze to Elliot. Elliot manages the workload and schedule, so we need to check with him.


    "I was about to take a short break, but I have some paperwork that I want to finish by today... why don''t we meet later?"


    "... I can''t help it, I''ll do it." Take care of Lady Olivia, Levi, and Tiara. Will you take the children with you? "


    Yes! After this, I will call out to you and return to Tiara Rose.


    Olivia leaves Aquastide''s office to bow her thanks.


    Seeing Olivia leave, Aquastide stretches out. I was thinking of taking a little longer break while drinking tea, but I decided to go to the library in the forest and proceed with my work.


    ¡°That''s not much, so let''s get this over with.¡±


    "Yeah. Sorry to keep you company, Elliot."


    No, no, no.


    Elliot laughed, saying it was no problem because he was used to it.


    There was no quiet time flowing through the woods.


    Mmm, I want some sweets, too.


    "The book talked!" Cookies, please. "


    There''s also flower tea ~


    The Grimoire, which was stored in the deepest part of the library, was free to move as long as it was in the library. It seemed like I was lonely to be alone, so Keith and the librarian gave me permission.


    Grimoire flirts around the cookies that Tiara Rose brought as a souvenir.


    In such a noisy atmosphere, Olivia is enthusiastic about reading.


    Lucia Rose is playing with Grimoire and the Forest Fairies, so Tiara Rose decides to read Shtilka and Shtilio a picture book of a leaf book. Shtilka and Shtilio are sitting on Keith''s lap.


    "What are you reading?" It''s all recorded here, and there was no picture book...? "


    Yes!


    Of course, the librarian answered Keith''s question. And bring me a few picture books. "Fairy adventures", "How to make delicious sweets", "Friend halibut".


    "How to make sweets...?"


    Tiara Rose grabs the book she cares about and turns the page excitedly.


    The fairies didn''t have to eat, so they didn''t have the habit of eating anything until they met Tiara Rose. Those fairies'' cookbooks, plus candy books! There''s no way I don''t care.


    Tiara Rose was surprised when she blinked her eyes when she saw what was inside.


    "This... this is a treat I''ve made here before"


    "Oh, Tiara''s confectionery recipe."


    Keith laughs, "No, you made it."


    I thought it might be a forest treat I didn''t know about, so I''m just a little sorry. However, if you put it together in a book like this, the future of the sweet-loving forest fairy being born and becoming a pastry chef may not be far away.


    ¡°If you don''t know what you''re making, we''re here to help!¡±


    ¡±Even so, no one made it... the fairies don''t read books in the first place?¡±


    "What..."


    Even though there are recipe books, the fairies don''t seem to read them. Speaking of which, when I went to the library, I had never seen a forest fairy reading. I''m still playing with Lucia Rose.


    --I wonder if it''s better to start with an illustrated collection of sweets?


    Oh my God, I''ve been thinking about the Forest Fairy Pastry Chef Maneuver in my head.


    "What about the picture book?"


    "That''s right." I''m sorry, Luca, Rio. Shall I read the picture book? "


    Tiara Rose is holding a picture book called "Friendly Halibut" and flipping through the pages of her leaves. It has cute illustrations and short sentences.


    Shtilka and Shtilio''s eyes are nailed to the book, read it quickly! I can see that she is complaining.


    "... while the fairy in the forest was playing, I came across a halibut."


    The story is that the forest fairy makes friends with the halibut and explores the forest together.


    The fairies, who usually fly in the sky, walk along the ground with the halibut, looking at the forest from a different perspective and making various discoveries.


    I had the nuts from the halibut rice shared with me, and I drank water in the shallows of the river... it was fun, and it wasn''t long before the sun went down. And the fairy smiled and said that her friend was such a good one - it was so closed.


    "It''s fun to play with your friends." You two are going to play with the Cristore, right? "


    Yeah!


    It''s fun!


    Shtilka and Shtilio nodded repeatedly to Tiara Rose''s words.


    Forest, I want to go!


    Let''s go!


    Shtilka and Shtilio cheerfully say that they are going to the woods to play. When Keith saw it, he stroked their heads.


    "Then, take the fairies with you." I''m good in the woods, so I''m sure you''ll tell me a lot. "


    Yeah!


    Keith''s words overlapped those of Shtilka and Shtilio. The two of them said, "When are you going? I''m talking to him, so he wants to go right away.


    Thank you, Keith.


    "It''s okay, that''s all." They like Luca and Rio, too. "


    Keith laughs with his shoes, adding that I do too.


    "That''s right, how long have you been here today?" Unlike fairies, you guys need food, right? "


    With that, Keith glanced at Olivia. I''m reading a book without moving a bit, so it''s going to take a while. In other words, I won''t finish reading in a day today, so I will go to school regularly.


    Think about what to do with Tiara Rose.


    --The Aqua said they would meet later, so by dinner time, I think I''ll be able to return to the Royal Castle...


    Wouldn''t it be nice to have dinner at Keith''s Castle? I thought, but unfortunately there''s no ingredients here without a cook. Some of them are ingredients of Tiara Rose''s favorite sweets.


    ¡°If you don''t mind, I''ll have it ready for you.¡±


    Levi?


    "Olivia is obsessed with books. I''ve been looking forward to coming to the forest archives, so I''d like to let you enjoy them as close as possible.¡±


    So Levi suggested that we go back to the Imperial Castle and prepare food.


    At that time, I will also see how His Majesty Aquastide is doing.


    Then I''ll ask Levi.


    I''ll take care of it.


    When Tiara Rose gave Levi permission, she bowed and walked out of the forest library.

 207 12. Knight Form

    Aquastide''s office in the Royal Castle was finally finished. When I look out the window, it''s like a little before the sunset.


    It was later than I expected, so I rushed to Keith''s Castle, but Levi came before that. I have a basket with ingredients in my hand.


    "I would like to make dinner today at the Fairy King''s Castle in the Forest." If your Majesty''s preparation is not a problem, I do not want to be with you. "


    "Have dinner? Okay. Allow me to accompany you."


    Well then, let''s get ready in a hurry.


    As soon as Aquastide gave Levi his permission, Elliot got ready. She collects the documents and puts them on the shelf - she notices Levi''s piercing gaze.


    Um, what is it?


    "... no. It''s about time? And that''s what I thought personally."


    "It''s about time..."


    Elliot''s cheeks were pulled by Levi''s somewhat overwhelming words. Inwardly, how did you know!? You''re in such a hurry.


    Aquastide shrugged his shoulders as he looked at the two strangling each other.


    "Don''t stare at me like that, Levi, because it''s working properly."


    ¡°That''s the best part. I''m sorry about the exit."


    Levi lowered his head, thinking that Olivia was with him all the time...... Aquastide and Elliot.


    Ho ho, the princess wants to be a knight!


    "That''s right! Isn''t it very handsome?" I will protect your mother and father. Luca and Rio too! "


    Even though you''re still young, you''re still in the mood.


    Tiara Rose is lounging next to Shtilka, Shtilio, and Keith over a cup of tea, while Lucia Rose talks to Grimoire.


    I seemed to like the place floating in the air very much, and until a while ago, I looked at Grimoire enviously saying, "I want to float too."


    What kind of knight do you want to be?


    What kind?


    Asked by Grimoire, Lucia Rose tilts her head. I just wanted to be a knight, so I don''t know what to ask.


    "Hmmm..."


    I don''t know much about knights. Most of the time, you become a knight in order to get a living salary, but the princess doesn''t want a reward, does she? "


    Lucia Rose herself is not very familiar, but she has a good budget from the state. I use it to prepare my living space. The management itself is carried out by Tiara Rose because she is still young.


    Grimoire tells the story of the Knight to Lucia Rose, who I don''t understand.


    < When it comes to knights, the most important thing is to pledge allegiance to someone. We need a conviction that we will absolutely protect that person. There are others who want to protect their country from the enemy... Because the princess is royal, I think she is also suitable as a knight to protect the country. "


    "What country?"


    Yes, the country includes families who love princesses.


    "And my family..."


    Hearing Grimoire''s words, Lucia Rose blinked her eyes several times and nodded. Apparently, what kind of knight do you want to be? That''s why I seem to be thinking about becoming a Lucia Rose.


    Lucia Rose thought to herself, "I want to be a knight who can protect everyone."


    Tiara Rose, Aquastide, Shtilka, Shtilio. Lucia Rose''s favorite family.


    Of course, my grandparents are important, so I want to protect Lucia Rose. I also like Philine, Elliot, and the Kristore brothers and sisters. And so did the Talmos, who would protect Lucia Rose when she was in danger. And the acorns that come to visit me once in a while. The same goes for the cooks at the Imperial Castle who make delicious rice, and the maids who play with Lucia Rose.


    When I counted, I didn''t have enough fingers on my hands. It is not enough to use the toes.


    Lucia Rose pointed her mouth and said, "I want to protect everyone!" to Grimoire.


    If so, why don''t you become a knight fighting evil?


    Aku?


    You don''t have to have a master, you can protect your pride and your loved ones.


    "A loved one..."


    Hearing Grimoire''s words, Lucia Rose nodded loudly. You become a knight and defeat the bad guys to protect your country and your loved ones.


    I will fight evil!


    That''s the spirit, princess!


    Looking at Lucia Rose clenching her fist and the grimoire supporting it, Aquastide leaned his head to see what he was talking about.


    Just now, the three of them, Aquastide, Elliot, and Levi, had arrived.


    Aqua, good work.


    "Thank you, Tiara.... what are you doing with Lucia?"


    It looks like you''re talking about what kind of knight you want to be.


    Lucia Rose and Grimoire are getting along.


    I see.


    Aquastide thought that Grimoire was a calm, pale personality, but it seemed to have an unexpectedly hot side.


    Grimoire, a history book, knows how many knights live. Thinking of it that way, Aquastide decides it''s a good thing to talk a lot.


    You''re finally here.


    ¡°Oh, thanks for playing with the kids, Keith.¡±


    "It''s nothing like this."


    Keith laughs whenever he plays.


    Aquastide sat next to the Tiara Rose, laughing, ¡°I appreciate that,¡± and decided to keep an eye on her.


    Looking at Milord sitting next to him, Tiara Rose hurriedly prepared tea. You''ve been working so far, and you''ve rushed to join us. I want you to take your time now.


    "Flower tea, please."


    "Thank you."


    But Shtilka and Shtilio on Keith''s lap jumped onto Aquastide, so they might not be able to slow down.


    I know you''re tired, but Aquastide strokes me like that without showing any dust.


    "Were you playing with a good boy?"


    Yeah! Next time, I''m going to the forest with the fairy!


    "I promised you."


    Shtilka and Shtilio tell Aquastide what they were doing and plan to go play happily.


    At this momentum, I think we should go tomorrow.


    After a while, Levi said, ¡°I''m sorry, but...¡± and put his face in the library.


    I wonder if something''s wrong.


    "I was supposed to be carrying ingredients and cooking dinner... but I think I might need some help."


    "It''s really hard to eat this many people alone..."


    Tiara Rose stood up and said she could help if she could, but Levi didn''t ask for help.


    "I can use the oven, but the stove doesn''t light up." It doesn''t seem to be working properly. ¡±


    Oh, by the way, I made a stove once in a while, but I didn''t bother to start a fire.


    Keith laughed in his shoes, ¡°I didn''t expect to use it.¡±


    It seems that only the oven used by Tiara Rose to make sweets worked properly.


    "Do you need a fire to make rice?" Then leave it to me! "


    Lucia?


    Grimoire and Knight Lucia Rose were confident. Next to it was a floating grimoire.


    --That''s true, Lucia is good at fire attributes...


    I haven''t practiced much magic yet.


    I could move the stuffed animal with Lucia Rose''s exceptional taste, but when I was asked if I could start a fire... I was worried that I wouldn''t be able to do it.


    When Tiara Rose saw Aquastide, she seemed to be thinking the same thing. The two of them nodded and tried to go under Lucia Rose. "Look!¡± He raised his arm.


    Grimoire, a page of fire for Levi to use!


    "--Oh!?"


    Lucia Rose''s words made Tiara Rose breathe.


    Grimoire responded to the words of Lucia Rose, and the closed page flipped over and stopped at a certain page. It can be seen that the letters are glowing red and the attributes of the fire are strong.


    "Lucia, stop!"


    "Grimoire, don''t do anything of your own!!"


    Aquastide and Keith''s voice overlapped, but it was a little slow.


    "Fulfill my wish, Fire!"


    Lucia Rose spoke loudly, and Grimoire burst into flames. The momentum is so strong that it reaches the ceiling.


    But the most surprising thing was Lucia Rose.


    Haaaaa


    She was surprised and crouched down to cover herself. But as it is, I got caught in the flame and got injured.


    Tiara Rose rushes under Lucia Rose in a hurry and asks Aquastide, ¡°No!" and the body stops. Instead, Aquastide ran under Lucia Rose.


    Aquastide gently wipes off the burnt-out ceiling with his hands and gently hugs Lucia Rose, saying, "It''s okay."


    "Oh, oh, my dear...!" Wow, ahnn


    "You were scared, Lucia." It''s okay, it''s okay now. Father and mother are all here. "


    "... yes"


    Lucia Rose clutched herself to Aquastide as she grunted and cried.


    "Oh, you''re such a bridesmaid..."


    Seeing Aquastide lift the Lucia Rose, Keith bursts into his head. Looks like Lucia Rose is safe.


    "Keith, Lucia..."


    "No problem. Grimoire used magic, but Lucia''s magic was also used together." You can''t hurt yourself with your own magic unless it''s too much. "


    "I see... I''m glad Lucia''s safe..."


    Hearing Keith''s words, Tiara Rose relieved herself. My body relaxed in peace, and I sat down on the spot.


    It looked like we were done safely.


    "Ugh, the princess has too much magic power to stop the fire...!"


    "--Oh! Gurim...!"


    Listening to Grimoire''s screaming voice, Lucia Rose, who was hugged by Aquastide, was throbbing.


    Lucia Rose receives power from the Fire Spirit Salamander, so her fire attributes are much higher. Lucia Rose had more magic power than Grimoire thought, and she couldn''t control it.


    "Lucia, Lucia...! I''ll help you now!"


    As soon as Tiara Rose was about to run under Lucia Rose, Keith pulled her arm.


    ¡±-Lucia Rose, may the Fairy King of the Forest bless you¡±

 208 13. Keiths Blessing

    The flames burned from the grimoire, and the screams settled in the woods'' archives. Even so, Keith''s quietly spun voice passed well.


    Tiara opened her eyes wide and looked at Keith. Aquastide looked at Keith with the same surprise, but Keith didn''t seem to care at all.


    With a cool face, he went to the bottom of Lucia Rose, held up by Aquastide, and touched her forehead with his index finger.


    Lucia rose glowed pale yellow-green and a sparkling light. The light flooded out of Lucia Rose and enveloped Grimoire, which kept spitting fire. As a result, the flowers on the cover of the grimoire became more dark in color, and the wax stretched and wrapped around the arm of Lucia Rose.


    "... this should also allow you to adjust your magic power"


    When Keith said that, he stroked Lucia Rose''s head pompously, ¡°It''s okay, so calm down.¡± Then I look at the grimoire and add a drink.


    "Lucia''s magic power was indeed great, but it wasn''t beyond her control." The blessings I''ve given you should make it easier for you to control them. I won''t let you say you can''t do it as a book with the will of the forest library. "


    I''m a history book with everything about the Marine Forest! I won''t run wild like a princess!! "


    When the grimoire barked tightly, a yellow-green light flashed and flew.


    If you close your eyes to see what has changed, it''s because of the magic of Lucia Rose.


    What do you mean, Keith?!


    "With my blessing, I made Lucia the master of Grimoire." Grimoire''s urn is now connected to Lucia''s magic power, so you can use it without losing any magic in the future. ¡±


    "Ehhhhh!?"


    Knowing that he had done something terrible in this instant, Tiara Rose went back to the scene without knowing what to do.


    In other words, Lucia Rose can use magic on her own, and she also has the magic of Grimoire. If you were a knight, wouldn''t you be the strongest? And the Tiara Rose is breathtaking.


    - But Keith helped me.


    I can only thank you for that.


    When Lucia Rose was born, Keith was the only one who didn''t bless her. I was just scolded because I couldn''t give it to you the first time... but when I became a lady, I said I would give it to you.


    Although I am still far from being a lady, I am glad that you have sent me a blessing to help me with the crisis of Lucia Rose.


    ¨D ¨D As a substitute, I''ll give Lucia the Fairy King''s blessing of my sweets when she becomes a lady.


    If that''s the case, I think I can keep my promise to Keith.


    Keith wakes up Tiara Rose and goes under Aquastide and Lucia Rose. As soon as I hugged Lucia Rose, she said, "Mom!"


    "I''m sorry, I... talked to Grimo about using magic together... and then... I got stronger and couldn''t help myself..."


    Lucia Rose explained to me that she used fire magic with Grimoire for Levi, who wanted fire.


    I know it''s gentle, but it was just too bad for my heart.


    Tiara Rose smiles as she gently strokes Lucia Rose''s back, ¡°You did your best.¡± But don''t forget to be careful at the same time.


    "Magic is very dangerous if you make a mistake, so please consult with your father before using it"


    I could talk to Tiara Rose, but Aquastide was good at handling magic. Aquastide is better placed to make the final decision.


    Lucia nodded firmly after hearing the story of Tiara Rose.


    "... yes..."


    "You got it right." That''s great, Lucia. "


    "It''s okay to talk about anything other than magic." If Lucia thinks anything, you can always talk to me. ¡±


    I can even make time at work, even when I''m eating, or when I''m off. In response to Aquastide''s words, Lucia Rose smiled relieved.


    "And then... I have to thank Keith for blessing me and helping me."


    Yeah.


    Lucia rose stood alone and looked next to her. There was a grimoire floating in the air.


    "Princess... I''m sorry. I''m not strong enough... I said something great about what kind of knight I am..."


    "Hmm. Grimoire... it''s not Grimo''s fault!" I enjoyed talking to Grimo and the knights. "


    Unlike before, a smile returned to Lucia Rose. "Let''s go together," he walked out under Keith.


    Grimoire replied and went behind Lucia Rose. It''s almost as if the two of them are holding hands.


    "Thank you, Keith. But blessings... are you glad?"


    "Don''t let your child care about that." If Lucia can help, blessing is cheap. "


    "... ah, yeah"


    Lucia Rose hugs Keith tightly and says "thank you" again and again in tears. I was really scared.


    Usually, I could use magic without worrying too much, but this time I was in a different situation with Grimoire. As a result, it didn''t work and I got upset.


    Keith says goodbye to Lucia Rose, and Grimoire sits next to Keith. Then, the upper part of the book fell forward as if it were hanging.


    Thank you for saving me.


    "...... I don''t want to do this. Once you do this, make sure you''re practicing properly."


    Let''s do it.


    Keith and Grimoire seemed to be fine, but Tiara Rose said in her heart, "Wait a minute!"


    - What are you practicing?! Lucia!?


    I had a dangerous and unpleasant feeling, but considering the future, it was definitely safer for Grimoire to be able to use magic properly.


    I''m worried and I feel like I should practice. Aquastide then hugged Tiara Rose''s shoulder, saying, ¡°It''s okay.¡±


    "Lucia is our daughter, so I''ll remember soon....... and in case something happens, it''s safer to get used to the treatment of magic power."


    "That''s right... I''ll keep an eye on Lucia as much as I can as a parent!"


    Of course, Lucia Rose herself, but it was possible that Shtilka and Shtilio would have magic problems as well. That''s why I didn''t have to prepare for it.


    Tiara Rose and Aquastide also went to Keith, stroking the crying Lucia Rose, and gently kissed her cute forehead, saying, "Let''s do our best together."


    Then a few months.


    A cute but powerful voice resounded in the corner of the knight''s training ground in the Imperial Castle.


    "Grimo, let''s go! A blistering page that can rainbow in the sky!"


    It was Lucia Rose who spoke out.


    The page of grimoire next to it is folded over, and it stops at the desired page. The lettering on the page glowed pale light blue.


    ¡°Fulfill my wish, Water!¡±


    With the voice of Lucia Rose, the magic of Grimoire is activated and the splash is soaring. Reflecting on the sun''s rays, a rainbow caught in the sky.


    You did it, princess!


    Wow! Wow!


    Seeing the stunning rainbow, Lucia Rose bounces and rejoices with Grimoire.


    Sitting on a bench, Tiara Rose and Aquastide watched.


    "Awesome, Lucia''s magic arm is fluttering up..."


    With the blessing of Pearl-sama, the magic power of the water is being strengthened.


    That''s right.


    Tiara Rose was surprised, but she was relieved.


    --I couldn''t use my magic power very well, so I struggled.


    The magic power of Lucia Rose was especially great, so if it failed or didn''t work, it would be accompanied by danger.


    Lucia Rose, who succeeded in her magic, ran this way with Grimoire. He waved his hand wide and his smile was full.


    "Father, mother, I... will become a magic knight!"


    Magic Knight!?


    In the words of Lucia Rose, Tiara Rose is surprised and handsome! Tension rises a little.


    --It''s Aqua''s daughter, and the sword and magic must be top notch!


    It may be a bit familiar, but Tiara Rose wants to support Lucia Rose''s new dream.


    Since Lucia Rose was originally a princess, it might be difficult to be a knight freely... but I talked to Aquastide and asked him to do what he liked.


    After training to become a Lucia Rose Magic Knight, Tiara Rose came to Aquastide''s office.


    As Tiara Rose sits on the sofa, the maid prepares a cup of tea and leaves the room. There are only Aquastide and Elliot now.


    ¡°I thought I''d talk to Tiara first because we''re going to get approval at this afternoon''s meeting.¡±


    "At the meeting, is that it?"


    Apparently, this is an important story, and Tiara Rose spits.


    - You mean the grimoire? Or perhaps a sweets fairy?


    I thought maybe there was a complaint, but Aquastide''s expression and mouth were soft.


    Rather, something good happened... that''s how it looks.


    "I think Tiara would be happy."


    Aquastide gives me the materials and Tiara Rose looks through them. It was just passed through today''s meeting, and it was neatly organized and easy to understand.


    "... is Lord Olivia going to be the Count!?"


    To the content, Tiara Rose opened her eyes wide.


    Olivia''s significant contribution to the Marine Forest History Book and the provision of information such as the Royal Castle''s underground passageway are the main reasons given in the materials.


    In addition to that, Olivia was investigating the strata of the Marine Forest and translating them into books and various activities, so it was included in the evaluation.


    - There aren''t any women holding the title, but it''s amazing to be a sermon!


    "Lady Olivia has helped me many times."... and before I got married. It''s not a good country to marry Olivia, who has that much information. "


    It seems that one of the reasons for granting the title is because of this.


    Perhaps we need reassuring materials for other aristocrats that conferring a title in the Marine Forest would not be detrimental to the country.


    "...... Lord Olivia loves this world in all its corners."


    Tiara Rose smiles and puts the material on the table.


    ¡°I think it''s very good. Lord Olivia''s knowledge should be appreciated. However, I don''t know what you think of Lord Olivia......


    Olivia used to say that if you were going to get married, you''d be better off with the second son of the Count''s family. If you''re too busy, you won''t have time to make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land or enjoy the world.


    Perhaps the Countess is such a fool!!... and you''re going to decline? It even makes me think.


    Thinking that far, Tiara Rose quickly became anxious.


    "Will Lord Olivia be your count?" I can''t help but say that I don''t like free time anymore. "


    Aquastide and Elliot smile at Tiara Rose''s assertion. That seems to be what both of them thought.


    "The problem is fine."


    "Really? I wish I had..."


    Olivia, have you already checked with herself? And I thought about Tiara Rose - in fact, Levi couldn''t miss Olivia''s dyke...


    Levi is intoxicated with Olivia.


    It was Levi''s wish to protect Olivia and make sure that Olivia''s wishes were fulfilled. But there''s only one thing I want from Olivia.


    I want Olivia to remain noble...


    Olivia told me that Levi wanted me to succeed him and become Duke.


    Tiara Rose remembered such a thing a little bit, and she had a feeling of turbulence somehow...

 209 14. The Birth of the Countess

    Olivia glares at Levi, who makes tea with Nikoniko''s face.


    - I think I''m hiding something.


    The Ariadel family, Olivia''s room.


    I was given a quick break, and I was relaxing without climbing the castle.


    I woke up in the morning with Levi''s brewed herbal tea, dressed up, had breakfast, played with the sweet fairy who came to play, had lunch, and now it''s tea time after dinner... but Levi is in too good a mood.


    "Olivia, I''m going to do a temporary sewing of the dress after this."


    Okay, okay, okay.


    I nodded after being told my schedule, but I didn''t remember asking for a dress tailor... huh? Tilts his head and neck.


    - I wonder if Levi asked for it.


    Olivia has fewer dresses to tailor for the Duchess''s daughter. I don''t need any trouble because I have what I need, but I do need a little something. Levi occasionally orders Olivia''s dress.


    Olivia thought it might be the same thing this time.....


    Levi, when are you going to wear this dress?


    Olivia looked at Levy with her face straight through her sleeve in an almost finished dress. Because the dress was so luxurious.


    --I wonder if you can buy five dresses that you normally wear?


    Olivia has no idea where she''s going to wear it.


    Levi?


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Olivia pursues him, but Levi remains silent.


    "It''s not a bad thing. I''m going to take off my seat once, because I''m going to proceed with the provisional sewing. Thank you very much."


    "Yes, I''ll take care of it."


    Levi told his maid Julia that he had left the room in a hurry.


    Looking at Levi like that, Olivia inflated her cheeks.


    "The timing of my wearing a luxurious dress... perhaps my father decided to engage me!? I''m 26 years old... I''m already late for school, so at least I''m looking good?"


    Even when Olivia was engaged to Aquastide, Olivia resented why her father decided to get engaged on his own.


    - I don''t want to marry anyone!


    Staring at Levi, Olivia wept. The reason why she didn''t want to marry was that she couldn''t initially go on pilgrimage to the Holy Land freely, so when asked during socializing, Olivia joked and said that the second son of the Count''s family was ~.


    But now, there''s a good reason why I don''t want to get married. And I don''t want to be married for the rest of my life.


    Olivia was dumbfounded, and the needle said, "It''s done." Apparently, the temporary sewing is done and the dress is complete.


    Is that finished?


    Unlike what I heard, Olivia''s eyes were dotted.


    The royal castle of the Marine Forest is not an easy place to enter. Olivia stood there now.


    Aquastide and Tiara Rose were at the tip of the deep red carpet. In the immediate vicinity, Elliot and other nobles play a central role in the country.


    - Well, what kind of event is going to start?


    Rather than make it a sea of blood, thinking it was a nuisance, Olivia held her nose with a handkerchief just in case.


    I saw Aquastide smile bitterly when I saw it, and I had a little nosebleed. Soon, Levi rushes in with a new handkerchief.


    Tiara Rose looks at Olivia and Levi from the podium and giggles. In this atmosphere, they are the same as usual.


    Olivia is going to be a sage from now on, but do you understand that?


    Olivia-sama, I wonder if you''re okay.


    "I don''t know..."


    Aquastide smiled bitterly at the murmur Tiara Rose gave him.


    "I don''t think Lady Olivia knows what''s going to start right now.... I told the Duke of Ariadel."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Olivia was puzzled by Tiara Rose, so she silently dropped her shoulder. Is it okay to proceed as it is?


    But when Olivia wiped off her nosebleed, she stretched her spine and began to walk.


    Rinse your eyes and you can see the color of determination. Maybe Olivia guessed the situation herself. Tiara rose was relieved and stroked her chest.


    Olivia slowly knelt as she walked up to Aquastide.


    ¡°Thank you for setting up such a place today.¡±


    ¡°Make yourself at home. Today, I would like to pay tribute to Miss Olivia and give her the reward she deserves."


    In response to Aquastide''s words, Olivia replied, ¡°Thank you very much for being happy.¡±


    Instead of the usual high-pitched voice, Tiara Rose feels very calm and elegant enough to be the daughter of a duke.


    Olivia was always under a lot of tension and bleeding nose, so it was kind of fresh.


    "Olivia Ariadel. Grants you a new count and territory." From now on, you can call yourself Rubiaria. "


    "I am very grateful to you." As Olivia Rubialia, I pledge my continued loyalty to the Marine Forest. ¡±


    "I also look forward to Miss Olivia''s future success."


    -Yes.


    Olivia kneeling received the title, and when the Countess was born, an applause arose. Among them are Olivia''s father, the Duke of Ariadel, and his brother, Claude.


    Olivia, who had found her family, turned her gaze to ¡°Why did you keep quiet?¡± and left the room.


    Senpai Tiara Rose ~ ~ ~!


    Olivia-sama... you''re drunk, aren''t you?


    "I have to drink it!!"


    Catching Olivia''s hug, Tiara Rose smiles bitterly at Aqua Steed next to her.


    This is the Ariadel family, and now Olivia is throwing a celebratory party when she becomes a countess.


    It''s only been a few hours since I last saw you.


    "When I got home, I didn''t know that the Count''s Congratulations party was going to start, except for me...!!"


    "I want to celebrate with a surprise... or something?"


    Tiara Rose responds as positively as she can, but Olivia turns around and says, "No."


    "I just didn''t have an escape route."...... I can''t say no to the words of His Majesty Aquastide. "


    It seemed like Levi had a thorough understanding. Olivia quickly drank a glass of wine and sighed heavily.


    She closed her eyes and smiled like she was trying to figure something out for a while.


    Lord Olivia?


    "... no. I''ve always been sweet on Levi, so I thought I''d get angry." She became the Countess of Olivia Rubialia. "


    Tiara Rose smiles at Olivia''s determination to jump out of nowhere.


    ¡°What are you going to do?¡±


    "First of all, I want to thank Levi." You have supported me for so long that you have become an Earl. There''s no need to worry about being separated from Levi..... "


    Olivia said that because of the alcohol, her cheeks were more red than usual.


    When Olivia, the Duke''s daughter-in-law, goes to her daughter-in-law somewhere, Levi, a man, cannot take her. For that reason, Olivia and Levi were either banished from the end of the game, single for the rest of their lives, or allowed to marry.


    Inseparable from Levi - Tiara Rose loosens her cheeks as she looks at Olivia, who wants to be with her.


    ¨D ¨D Master Olivia, you really liked Levi.


    I''ve always thought of you two as a good vibe, but a sweet vibe like a lover? I didn''t know when I thought about it.


    It was up to Olivia and Levi to decide why they were going to do it, but they were hungry, so Tiara Rose was sure to do well.


    ¡°If you need anything, please feel free to ask.¡±


    "Thank you, Master Tiara Rose." The Rubiaria family loves the Marine Forest so much, they will be the most honorable crest of this country in the future! ¡±


    Eh


    The sudden grand scheme--no, if it''s Olivia, it''s not grand at all, it''s normal. With such a thing, Tiara Rose became a little worried about Olivia''s child, who would be born in the future.


    Looking at Tiara Rose and Olivia, Aquastide realized that something terrible was going to happen.


    As the three of them talked, Levi and Odley, the head of the Ariadel family, arrived. Olivia''s mother, Claudia, and her brother, Claude.


    ¡°Thank you, Your Majesty Aquastide, for today.¡±


    ¡°No, I am also glad that the best have been awarded new titles.¡±


    "... if you say so, I''ll be relieved."


    Odley looked at Olivia with a bitter smile. I can see that the gaze is a gesture of mercy, and that I cherish it very much.


    There is a past where Olivia and Aquastide were previously engaged and quickly dissolved. It must have been a lot of worry.


    "It''s been a long time, Majesty Aquastide, and Master Tiara Rose." Thank you for coming today. ¡±


    ¡°Thank you for inviting me to this wonderful party.¡±


    "It''s been a long time, Claudia."


    Claudia and I have met several times at evening parties and tea parties. It''s so beautiful that I don''t think I have two children, and the clear skin becomes dizzy whenever I see it.


    "Ever since my sister became the maid of Lord Tiara Rose, every day seems to be so much fun... aren''t you bothering me?" I hope you haven''t run out of handkerchiefs..... "


    It was Claude who called out worriedly.


    I''m worried about Olivia''s nosebleed constitution, and I''m feeling uneasy.


    "Oniisama, I''m doing fine!" With Levi here, you won''t run out of handkerchiefs! ¡±


    "Vee, that''s not true..."


    Claude has a problem with getting too much nosebleeds in front of the king and queen, but he also knows that this is one of Olivia''s personalities, so it can''t be helped.


    Don''t push yourself too hard, and talk to me right away if you need anything.


    "Yes! Thank you, oniisama"


    Looking at Olivia and Claude in conversation, Tiara Rose smiles. It''s good to have a good family.


    "But if Olivia becomes an Earl... she''ll have a new Mansion." When you think about it, you''ll miss it. "


    "Father..." I''m twenty-six already, and I wouldn''t have been in my wife''s house long ago. "


    "... that''s right."


    In Olivia''s words, Odrei''s eyes are distant. I hate it when my daughter gets married and goes under other men, but I also hate it when she never gets married. It''s hard to talk to a man''s mind.


    Claudia looked at Olivia and Levy and opened her mouth.


    "Since you will become a count, marriage will take the form of a son-in-law." Olivia, don''t you have someone you want to marry? "


    Claudia giggled, and Olivia''s ears turned bright red in an instant.


    "Olivia!?"


    Odley doesn''t see and hear Olivia''s reaction!? Although Claudia looks very happy.


    "You, Olivia, are already twenty-six years old." Besides, Odley and Claude are more solid than they think. You can think about the future. ¡±


    Claudia smiles at Olivia.


    Olivia quickly pulled Levi''s arm as she said, "Mother, you see everything..."


    "-! Olivia?"


    All of a sudden, Levi looks at Olivia in surprise, but Olivia doesn''t answer anything with a straight face.


    It looks like you didn''t answer my question today.


    "I will marry Levi!"


    Olivia''s grandly proclaimed voice echoed throughout the room. The lively talking voice and music stopped in a flash, and everyone gathered around Olivia and Levi.


    Claudia smiles happily, and Odley and Claude open their mouths wide.


    --No way to make a public proposal!


    The tiara rose became irritated and red, and she hurriedly suppressed her cheeks with both hands. I''m thrilled and fuzzy, wondering if it''s okay to look at it, but I can''t take my eyes off it.


    "Olivia, I--"


    ¡°This is a decision, Levi. Or... you don''t want to?"


    "I''m not even with Olivia."


    Olivia sighed heavily as Levi disagreed.


    "Then I''ll ask, Levi."


    Yes.


    Is there anyone worthy as my husband who became a countess?


    ¨D¨D


    In response to Olivia''s inquiry, Levi lost his words.


    At the same time, the Tiara Rose was breathtaking. If I make a mistake, I''ll be frustrated with this atmosphere that seems to become a Shura.


    "Aqua..."


    Aquastide unexpectedly looks at him with a troubled smile.


    It looks like Miss Olivia is better this time.


    "Is that so...?" It seems that Levi wants to marry someone worthy of him..... "


    Seeing Aquastide, already convinced of Olivia''s victory, Tiara Rose puts her hand on her chin and bothers her.


    -You don''t think Levi is worthy of Lord Olivia because he''s a commoner, do you?


    Thus, the idea that even Levi would be granted a title!? emerges in Tiara Rose. That way, Levi won''t have to turn down his identity.


    - But Levi has no distinction, and if Levi is going to be a senator, he''ll be able to tell us when he hears about Olivia''s senator.


    That way, Tiara Rose won''t know why. Mmm, the reason was immediately told by Levi''s mouth.


    "... there''s no one there. There''s no one else who can count the men worthy of Olivia..."


    Olivia smiles victoriously when she sees Levi hungry.


    "Eh, is that so!?"


    "That''s right." There aren''t many men in the Marine Forest today who match the age of Lady Olivia... but even if you don''t think about age in the first place, it''s going to be difficult. "


    Now the Count, former Duchess, and former fianc¨¦, Aquastide. If the dissolution of the engagement was considered a stain, it would be difficult to place high hopes on the marriage partner, but now the Count was honored for his achievements.


    --Levy admits his fate... there''s no way.


    Isn''t a king like Aquastide a prince, or a royalty? And Tiara Rose bitterly smiled.


    "In other words, His Majesty Aquastide, there is only one man with a high spec, Levi."


    Levi has studied and trained for Olivia - making him an unbelievably high-spec man.


    "Hey, don''t make me say it again." Levi, I want to spend the rest of my life with Levi. Let''s take a lapis lazuli for our honeymoon and explore the sanctuary together? ¡±


    Looking at Olivia with a fun honeymoon plan in mind, it''s not what I''m saying right now!? Tiara Rose has a hard time. "I can''t believe there''s a proposal I can''t look at so relievedly..."


    "... as Olivia wishes." I will be next to Lord Olivia for the rest of my life. "


    ¡°Yeah. We''ll be together forever, Levi.¡±


    Olivia hugged Levy and a big round of applause came from the venue.

 210 15. Peaceful Days

    Tiara Rose and Aquastide, returning home from the Ariadel family, went to their rooms after seeing the faces of the children who had already fallen asleep.


    Tiara Rose sits on the sofa with Aquastide while she prepares fruit water. I drank a lot of alcohol at the party, so I''ve had enough.


    "I didn''t expect Lord Olivia to propose, but I was relieved that it was rounded down."


    "Lady Olivia is very thoughtful." She''s the same villainous daughter as Tiara. "


    Tiara Rose lowered her eyebrows as Aquastide laughed like a bite. From Aquastide''s point of view, it seems that I am similar.


    --Ugh, I''m doing a lot of nonsense, so I can''t argue...


    Drinking fruit water, Tiara Rose leans against Aquastide''s shoulder.


    It''s been a long time since I drank a lot of alcohol today, so it seems that I have become more drunk than usual. I put my forehead on the shoulder of Aquastide and wore it.


    It''s kind of unusual for a tiara to be so drunk.


    "... I think so." I don''t usually drink much, and I haven''t been able to do it since Lucia was pregnant. ¡±


    I don''t need breast milk now, so I can drink alcohol without worrying about it.


    That said, I can''t drink so much alcohol that I''m drunk at a nightclub, so I don''t drink so much that my complexion changes.


    "This time it was Lord Olivia''s celebration, and...... Lord Olivia was already drunk." I may have gotten a little tired. ¡±


    It''s true that Miss Olivia''s drinking was amazing for a man as well.


    Yeah.


    I remembered how Olivia looked and smiled unexpectedly.


    At the same time, I prayed with all my heart that Olivia and Levi would be happy forever...


    "...... Is the game now completely over?"


    Tiara?


    "No... I think it might be strange to say that Master Ishira got married and that Master Olivia also found someone... but the marriage has been decided."


    Both the villainous daughter and the heroine were able to go on a happy path.


    "I was... worried for a while after I got married." I wonder if I really deserve Aqua, or if I''m going to be chosen as the Heroine Ishira-sama... I don''t think Lord Olivia had anything to worry about. ¡±


    As far as I could see, there seemed to be almost no anxiety... "With that in mind, Tiara Rose said the rest.


    "That''s why I think Lord Olivia is... really happy right now."


    Having said that, Tiara Rose gave her a smile, and Aquastide hugged her.


    "Ah, Aqua!?"


    "Tiara is bad for saying cute things."


    Even though Tiara Rose is shy, she occasionally speaks boldly of her feelings. The Aquastide that receives that wipe is not a cumulative one.


    Cuddling and hugging, you''re driven by an unwanted impulse.... well, there''s nothing wrong with not letting go.


    "That''s... uuuu..."


    The reddened Tiara Rose was almost steaming from her face.


    That said, it didn''t change who I really was, and I''m very happy to be with Aquastide now. Tiara Rose did not hesitate to hug her.


    Tiara Rose gently hugs her, and Aquastide smiles.


    "I''m not laughing...?"


    "No, it''s like you''re clinging to me so hard, it''s so cute."


    No matter what Tiara Rose does, it doesn''t look cute anymore.


    Tiara Rose swells her cheeks and says to herself, "I''m not a small animal."


    Sometimes there is alcohol in it today, and it is more aggressive than usual. As she continued to weigh herself vigorously, she pushed Aquastide down onto the sofa and leaned over it.


    Placing her hands on Aquastide''s chest plate, Tiara Rose blinks at her firm muscles.


    - Wow, that''s awesome.


    I don''t notice it when I''m wearing clothes, but Aquastide is well trained. It''s called a thin macho.


    "... if you hug me, you''ll be relieved."


    Tiara drops her cheeks on Aquastide''s chest and snaps over. Even if it sits on top, it feels stable and there is no worry at all.


    - Wow. If I were you, I''d definitely puff it out.


    Tiara Rose loosens her cheeks as she looks at Aquastide, who is left to herself. When you close your eyes with the breastplate as a pillow, you can hear the beating of the Aquastide a little faster.


    "You''re happy, Aqua..."


    "... yes, I''m sure I''m the happiest person in the world."


    Aquastide, who replied, gave me a gentle hug.


    "... well, I knew this would happen."


    Aquastide smiles bitterly at the sight of his wife sleeping on top of him. I thought I''d fall asleep today as soon as I was in a lethargic mood... but I can''t believe I''m going to sleep at this timing.


    Aquastide raised his upper body while caring for the Tiara Rose. Sleeping in your own chest, you''re feeling just as good as ever.


    Fluffy honey pink hair, long eyelashes. A tidy face is adorable even when you''re asleep.


    Leaving the sleeping tiara rose as it was, Aquastide grabbed the fruit water from the table and drank it all at once.


    "...... Huh"


    Although it is difficult to notice because Tiara Rose was drunk and faint, Aquastide is also drinking quite a bit today.


    So I''m just a little unhappy that Tiara Rose fell asleep first.


    "Sleeping with such a defenseless face..."


    I tangled my fingertips in Tiara Rose''s hair and Aquastide kissed me. I saw my hair spilling out of my fingers, and now it''s on my temples.


    "Nh..."


    Whether it was ticklish or not, the Tiara Rose was slightly tucked in. Loosening her cheeks like that, Aquastide kissed her forehead, eyes, and tip of her nose... Each time, the tiara rose tickles, so I can''t wait to enjoy it.


    I stroke Tiara Rose''s cheek and trace her lips with her thumb. With a slight exhale, Aquastide breathes unconsciously.


    "Tiara..."


    Call out your name and stick your forehead to each other.


    Aquastide thinks that the long eyelashes of Tiara Rose will strike him as close as possible to kissing him at any time.


    Aquastide slowly pushes the lips of Tiara Rose with her thumb. It''s soft and I want to touch it even more.


    This mouth always calls my name.


    When I first met her, she was Highness Aquastide. Then I went on a date and was able to call you Master Aqua. I''m really glad you called me by my nickname, but you were too shy to call me Aqua.


    I''m always thrilled with the tiara rose who calls me Aqua and my name, sometimes embarrassed.


    ¨D ¨D Of course, I''m very happy now that you naturally call me Aqua.


    I want you to call me by my name as many times as you want, and Aquastide always wants to call me Tiara.


    "Tiara"


    I called her name again, and Aquastide opened her lips slightly with her thumb... and kissed her like that.


    Grimo, the wind page!


    Roger that, Princess.


    Lucia rose stood her wooden sword and kicked the earth. At that moment, Grimoire used the magic of the open page to accelerate Lucia Rose.


    Towards the end was Talmo, who had a wooden sword. Tarumo lightly defeats Lucia Rose''s wooden sword and strikes back. Lucia Rose, who had been thrown by the recoil, sighed heavily.


    "There you are... even though I used Grimo''s magic, I knew the Talmo was strong."


    If there were no enemies at all, Lucia Rose would be stunned.


    Olivia became the Countess, and three years passed.


    Lucia Rose was eight years old and had begun training to become a full-fledged magic knight. The opponent is all Tarmo, but when I have time, Aqua Steed and Keith may be able to deal with me, raising their fluttering arms.


    It was Shtirio who looked like he was having fun behind Lucia Rose. Shtirio, who was five years old, seemed to want to be a knight just like Lucia Rose, and he was constantly training.


    On the other hand, Shtilka doesn''t seem to be very interested in swords, so he often reads books and plays with magic.


    Grimoire had completely fallen into the partner position of Lucia Rose and was always with her.


    It''s a Marine Forest history book, but now I don''t specifically check history, so Keith and the librarian are free.


    While Lucia Rose, Shtirio and Talmo were resting, Tiara Rose, Aquastide and Shtirka came.


    Mother, Father!


    Good work, Lucia. How was your day?


    "Talmo is so strong, he can''t win at all!"


    Lucia Rose lay on the ground wondering when she could win. No matter how hard I try, I don''t feel like I can beat Talmo.


    Tiara Rose looks at Lucia Rose like that and giggles.


    "The Talmo is my guard knight." There''s no way we can win that easily. "


    "Before that, I was a knight." It seems like it''s pretty far enough to get into Talmo with a single blow. ¡±


    Talmo is loyal to his job and trusts both Tiara Rose and Aquastide. Talmo''s skill is difficult to understand because he is surrounded by non-standard people such as Aquastide and Keith, but he is also at the top of the marine forest.


    Nh, I''ll do my best!


    For some time, Lucia Rose''s objective was to strike at Talmo.


    That''s why we need to deepen our ties with Grimoire and sharpen our swords! And, I''m in a good mood.


    "I don''t object to becoming a knight, but you have to get a proper education, lady." Lucia is the one who is embarrassed in the social world. ¡±


    ¡±... ahhhh¡±


    Lucia nodded in dislike at the words of Tiara Rose.


    I want to wear knight clothes that are easier to move than wearing a dress, and it is many times more fun when I am practicing my sword than studying manners.


    "Lucia is more like a sword than a love..." It might be slow to go to your daughter-in-law. "


    Are you relieved? When I turned my gaze towards Aquastide, I was shouted "Tiara".


    Tiara Rose giggles when she sees such an Aquastide.


    "My daughter wants to marry a man who looks like her father... maybe she''ll bring a man who looks like Aqua."


    It''s just that no one like Aquastide does. Lucia Rose, who grew up looking at her father who was too high-spec, wondered what kind of man she would choose... as her mother.


    Rather, you''re going to the candy house today, aren''t you?


    "... yes, to me and Aqua''s secret base"


    As the children grew up, Tiara Rose and Aquastide went to the hidden room of the confectionery house about a few times a month.


    The time was so sweet that Tiara Rose thought it would always feel like a honeymoon.


    Seeing Shtilka head towards the Lucia Roses, the Tiara Roses wave to the children, ¡°I''m going out.¡±


    Ahh, come on!


    "Come on in."


    "Yes, I will." I''ll be back by dinner. ¡±


    Having said that, Tiara Rose left the training ground after Aquastide had escorted her.
