Akuyaku Reijo Ni Koi Wo Shite

The first shuraba [kai]

The chaos of the Great Alexandros was exacerbated by the pursuit of the Royal Army of Grand Fram, and it was no longer a fight. Most of the commanders who had to manage the confusion of the soldiers had largely escaped.

The soldiers at the end of the Great Alexandros Empire are consumables. Such consciousness has spread throughout the commander.

The soldiers who had lost control fled apart and fled, but it was better. The consequences of a slowdown in the pursuit of the Grand Flam Army were that they could not narrow down their opponents.

However, this is only temporary and there is limited escape in Bandhu, which is surrounded by steep mountains. A few weeks later, a significant number of soldiers gave up and fled. This may also be fortunate for Imperial soldiers.

Ten thousand Imperial troops awaiting near the western border were retreated shortly after defeat. Because of the defeat situation, it was decided that the next game should be avoided immediately. With the arrival of Leon, the Great Alexandros Empire needed to think about tactics.

As a result, the Great Alexandros Empire's campaign to destroy the Grand Flam Kingdom ended in failure.

Having confirmed the end of the battle, the key players returned to Kamark. We will have the first plenary session after the battle. Each participant's expression was nervous and nervous.

A meeting room with a tight atmosphere. What appeared there.

"Alice in Wonderland Mercenaries, I came to get my reward."

Alice again.

"... What happened to Rion?"

Everyone thought that Leon would appear. It feels like a complete shoulder watermark.

"Somehow dissatisfied. I'm the leader?"

Alice also had such feelings.

"I know that, but I want to meet Leon."

"... Who is it?"

Alice asks Arnold, tilting her head slightly.

"I want you not to fall in love. I know that the man who fought with you is Lion."

"It's about white. Hey?-He's called Rion?-I didn't know."

Alice is always in love. This attitude also irritates the surroundings.

"Bring me Lion anyway."

That's Arnold. Wording is rough.

"Even if you bring me, I don't think he doesn't know because he has no memory."

However, Alice is not afraid of such an attitude. The surroundings uttered surprising words in an atmosphere that fell in love.

"……what?"

"I don't remember the past. I gave it because I didn't even remember the name."

"... Is there anything stupid?"

If you suddenly say you have no memory, you can't believe it. It is actually a lie. However, this is not what Alice is saying without permission.

We know that the people of the Kingdom of Granfram will treat Lion as Viscount Frey or royalty. With that in mind, Leon considers it natural to fight for the Grand Flam Kingdom.

This was something that Lion did not like. It's bothersome to push a fight and refuse it. If you don't remember, you won't know anything. For this reason.

"Before complaining, can you get a reward for fulfilling your request?"

"... I'd like to see Lion first. You may remember something if you talk."

"There were no such terms and conditions, so not paying would be a breach of the contract?"

"Pay me, I'm just telling you to meet Leon."

"We value the contract because we aren't going to be with someone who can't keep it.

The client is Prince Alex, not Arnold. Alice turned her gaze to Prince Alex, her true partner. This is a signal that there is no obligation to listen to Arnold.

"... well ..."

Alex, who was suddenly told, was in trouble.

"Is it impossible to pay? I mean? Ox kingdom breached the contract?"

"No, no, I don't. I pay, but I just don't have it now."

"Yes. Breach of contract. Ox Kingdom broke the contract."

That's not really the story so far. Waiting a bit for payment is something that has happened many times. Alice is only blaming severely for reproaching what he was deceived by Prince Alex.

"King Arnold?"

Alex is the only reliance on Arnold. Originally, the reward is a promise to be paid by the kingdom of Granfram.

And if Alex is asked, Arnold can't help refusing.

"... I see. Lambert."

"Hah"

I was preparing a reward. Lambert went forward and handed Alice a bag of gold coins. Alice's strategy won.

"Yes, thank you.

Without checking the contents of the bag, Alice declares the end of the request. This makes Lambert anxious.

"... Do you not confirm?"

"Are you deceiving?"

"No way"

"We decide to check the sincerity of the other person in the first job. I can't believe anyone who falsifies the reward. I won't get the job again."

"So, I'm not deceived."

"Naturally, so I don't have to check it. I don't have to tell you it's not enough."

Don't forgive other people's mistakes. Wonderland mercenaries' demands on their employers are severe. However, such attitudes differ depending on the opponent. If the other person is really in need, you have to forgive. If you don't like it, you don't even allow it. In other words, it depends on your mood.

"I want to get the next job"

Alice noticed that Alice was about to leave, and Arnold brought up the next commission. This cannot be broken.

"... What is the request?"

"Reconstruction of the Grand Flam Kingdom"

This is more a request of Arnold and his minions than a commission.

"I can't. Once lost, nothing can be restored."

Alice simply rejects it. It's not that we can't recover, but it's unclear what made the request.

"... Defeat the Great Alexandros Empire"

"I'm sorry. We basically don't have long-term contracts."

This is not a lie either. Wonderland Mercenaries' policy.

"... Recapture of the royal capital"

"Um. Is it long ?? But considering the stage of the next battle ... Is it OK to take it home?"

"Can you always get a response?"

"Is it tomorrow?"

"It's faster than I expected. Are you staying at Kamark's inn?"

Arnold tries to find out where he is. For Band ド ゥ, Lion is the hero who saved themselves from the genie. I thought it would be a fuss if I entered Kamark, and I knew it would be obvious, but the Grand Flam kingdom had not yet confirmed it.

"Because I'm not in town. I'm just saying, the Wonderland Mercenaries aren't just me and White."

"Encampment?"

"Well?-You don't have to teach it. So you're done. Tomorrow."

As if fleeing Arnold's pursuit, Alice forcibly ended the conversation and left the conference room. Of course, there are those who follow, but Arnold's whereabouts are not heard.

Even without Alice in the first place, the Black Party knows where Leon is. I know and do not teach.

◇◇◇

The Lions and the Wonderland Mercenaries were gathered in a village where no one lived. A village abandoned by villagers after being attacked by demons. There are several such places in Bandhu. This is the result of consolidating the village to consolidate the labor force during recovery.

"Do you not go to your family?"

Rion is asking Mercury and his friends. Mercury and the former Bandhu parties returned to this area only after leaving Bandou with Leon.

"No, we were the ones who abandoned the bandeau during the hardest times.

"... I don't care about my family? Well, I don't know."

Rion lost his family early in the original world. To be honest, I have no real feelings about my family.

"Does Leon need to meet Eriel?"

"... I don't have any faces to meet now."

"So, when can you meet? I know you've returned to Bandeau, so you don't know if you're sorry for not going to see him?"

Mercury doesn't understand Rion who doesn't go to see Eriel.

"... It's fine"

"It's such a thought. I mean, it's surprising that I just kept waiting and still waiting."

Mercury and his brothers are eager to work with Rion, but have the same feelings about Eriel. This is a tough situation for Lion.

"I'm not thinking. I can only do Eriel's opponent. Aeriel's cute, but sometimes her character is really tight.

"No, not at all."

"I have been many times. Have you been tied and sunk in a fountain?"

"... I don't have it."

"I can't find anyone who can withstand the punishment of Aeriel, even if I search all over the continent. Even if we spend time with us, we'll definitely die in just a few days. so……"

Since Mercury was persistent, he started talking with an excuse, but the story like bitches continued endlessly. It's been a long time since I talked about Aeriel, so I couldn't stop.

Mercury began to keep an eye on Rion. Rion, who notices it, turns his glance to the entrance.

"... Oh, did you come back? How was the negotiations?"

Rion thinks she's back, and hastily stops talking about Eriel. Alice is also troublesome when she is in a bad mood.

"Hey, Leon. You're the one who made me wrong?"

But the voice returned was different from Alice's, yet familiar.

Rion fearfully looks back at the voice he hears after a long absence--Eriel's face was already in front of her.

"... Why is this here?"

"Luffy led me."

With the help of the spirit, Aeriel located Rion. It can only be done by Aeriel.

"Is there such a hand?"

"Don't be impressed and explain. What do you mean by contacting me when you're back?"

"... Ih, Ih, I"

Rather than pinching Rion's cheeks from both sides, or putting his thumbs into his mouth, Eriel twists it all the way up.

"I'm asking what you mean."

"Go, gome, nyan, hii"

"What do you mean if you haven't talked about for years? Hey, Leon, can you explain me to my satisfaction?"

"... Hyo, hiyore, ha"

"I don't know what you mean !?"

"Yu, Yuhi ... Yu, Biga"

You can't talk to Matomo unless you stop picking it up with your finger. But to this extent, it's not an Airiel.

"……sorry"

"Go, noodle, na, hii"

"I love you"

"Hey?"

"I love you"

"... Oh, oh, hi, he, ri"

"I'll do this until morning.

Wording is the creed of Eriel. Most of the time, only Airelel has to do it, but what he does is Rion.

"Mu, mui. Ku, Kuhi, a"

"start!"

"... Aihiteru"

"I love you"

"Hei Aihiru"

"..."

Eriel is angry with her cheeks inflated like a child. I like Rion for this kind of strange innocence. Gently take Airiel's hand and remove it from her mouth, take out the handkerchief and carefully wipe her finger.

Airiel is done but still.

"I'm sorry to release it all the time, but I've never forgotten Eriel."

"... It's natural. Why did you leave me and say somewhere?"

"What is Sol?"

"Yes. I'll never talk."

"He's more stupid than I thought. I can't help. I don't know what will happen."

Talking to someone can cause great disaster. Sol took the words of Alice seriously and kept them. Even if you are skeptical, it is too late to regret after something really happens.

"What do you mean?"

"I left Bandeau-"

"Because I have another favorite woman!"

"Yes?"

Voice interrupted. This time, it was definitely Alice's voice. Aeriel and Alice are in a bowl. In this terrible situation Mercury is silently about to leave.

"No, no, wait a minute. Do you want to leave me alone?"

Rion was a woman, but she has never experienced a shambles. Many women never meet in public, and others have given up their monopoly from the beginning.

The first shambles were about to be realized here.

"Oh? Is there anything wrong with being alone?"

Airiel is full of hate and asks a question.

"... No, not at all"

"I forgot the first thing to ask. Who is this woman?"

"I'm his wife"

Alice answers Arial's question. And the answer is nothing but provocation.

"... I'm asking Rion."

"I told you because I wanted to know. Isn't this a place to say thanks?"

Alice's provocation does not stop.

"Alice. Don't confuse things. Are you not married?"

"Oh, it's terrible. In other words, did you play with my body?"

"... I'm not playing with you"

Despite this, Rion has an unpleasant premonition in her mind.

"Well, did you love me? I'm glad!"

"You ..."

The result was as expected. Rion wants to hide and Alice wants to reveal. This is an overwhelming disadvantage for Rion. But this is self-employed.

"Because of being embraced by Leon, my wife is soaring."

Here again, Aeriel will enter.

"What's that?"

"Rion's bad habit is sick. I'm sorry. It looks like she's misunderstood again."

When it comes to dislikes, Eriel has a tremendous talent. The role of the villain daughter is not Date.

"... Isn't it your misunderstanding? How long have you been pretentious?"

"It's always, because Leon is something I can only be satisfied with."

"There is no such thing"

"That's it. Rion can't forget me. Both his mind and body."

"... or your body?"

Alice noticed that the direction of the topic was somewhat suspicious.

"Rion is here"

"Hey, wait a minute!"

Rion stops as soon as Airiel tries to talk. Finally, she realized that she was trying to talk about something ridiculous.

"What is it?"

"I'm trying to talk something strange"

"It's not weird. It's Leon's habit."

"... so it's weird"

"Do you know? リ Or are you just loved by Rion and not?"

Ignoring Rion's voice, Aeriel asked Alice. That's a little meaningful question.

"... I love you. I love you much more than you."

"So why do you want to make Leon suffer? Isn't he trying to fulfill Lion's wishes?"

Aeriel, who doesn't know the facts, said the words that hit Alice's most painful place. Rion is forced to stay with her. This fact was a major drawback for Alice.

"... I hate you. Don't rob me of Rion!"

Alice, who explodes her emotions and yells at Aeriel, goes outside. Then, Rion tries to chase immediately.

"Rion?"

"Ah ... um, I'm sorry for being separated from Eriel, but there's a sympathy for Alice."

"What is sympathy?"

"... I'm sorry. I can't say the contents from my mouth.

"Yes ... then I'll listen directly."

"Yes?"

"Rion has some people who still have to apologize. First, talk to them."

"... Did you bring Frau?"

When it comes to anyone who has to apologize other than Airiel, only his daughter Frau can think of Leon.

"The person who raised the Frau. Talk to me properly?"

With that said, Eriel pulled out of the door shadow with Charlotte. Charlotte with tears. I was waiting for this day, but I couldn't say anything when I saw Rion in front of me.

"Rion ..."

The only thing I could barely say was Rion's name.

"... uh ... it's been a long time."

Rion is embarrassed by Charlotte, staring at herself with her full eyes. Charlotte's eyes show his passion, which cannot be satisfied with reunion with a nostalgic friend. Leon didn't know why.

"I was about to give up many times. I couldn't get out of the castle, and I stayed forever ... but I had Frau."

"Ah, yeah. Thank you for raising Frau."

"Yeah. I was tolerated because Frau was there. I can be the mother of Rion's child. That was my only support."

"……that?"

Finally, I know what's wrong with Rion.

"It's good. It's time to meet you and I feel it's all rewarded."

"... Huh, even if you hear something rude?"

"what?"

"May Charlotte like King Arnold?"

Rion thought Charlotte wanted to be Arnold's wife. Alice thought that she had used her thoughts to protect Eriel and Frau.

"... oh, that's ... that ..."

Charlotte also remembered that his relationship with Leon was just a friend. The face is dyed red and it is down.

"I guess it's true that King Arnold is still a virtual couple, and is it always?"

"... Yes, because that's the promise ..."

"Huh?"

He married Arnold for himself and spent many years in shape alone. Charlotte is old enough to be late in this world. I sacrificed precious time for myself. Rion's face, which she notices, is now blue.

"That's what I did. Don't worry."

"Even if you don't care ..."

Thank you so far, so goodbye. For Charlotte, Leon, as expected, cannot be so heartless.

Then what should we do. This answer was not immediately apparent to Leon.

◇◇◇

When Leon was confused before Charlotte. Airiel was staring at Alice.

"I think I have the right to ask why."

Alice has heard about why he took him away and why he obeyed quietly, but Alice is not willing to talk about it.

"This is a problem between me and Rion, they are two. It doesn't matter to you."

"... Who are you in the first place? When did you meet Rion?"

"I'm Rion's wife."

"That's good. I'm asking you."

"I am ... Alice"

"Huh ..."

Aeriel exhales on purpose. Alice is a little frustrated by Alice trying to hide her identity.

"Lion likes me"

"I know that."

"eh……?"

Alice didn't expect any return from Aeriel.

"I was worried about you who jumped out.

"... friendly"

He was forced to separate from Eriel. It is natural that he is grudged. But it's not that Alice didn't even know Leon's feelings. That is why he allowed him to return to Bandeau.

"Lion isn't simple and simple, meaning that you have something for him to turn on, so you have to admit that you're on the side."

"Another, friendly"

"I'm not simple. Forgive me. Rion forgives me .... It's a lot more than before, but it's still valuable."

"Thanks to you. Thanks to you and Vincent. Two of you have saved Lion."

Airiel and Vincent are the only opponents that Rion allowed. The action for them increased the people around Rion and the people they could trust.

"... Have you heard from Rion?"

"No. I've been watching all the time."

"eh?"

"I was part of this world. I've always seen you as part of this world."

"... You were suffering Rion?"

The unreasonableness of this world. It had been painful for Lion. Rion has always been against that world.

"I can't deny that because I didn't seem to have my own will."

"But you"

I'm talking like this. He says he likes Rion. That is the intention. Aeriel thought Alice's story was inconsistent.

"I hate that and stopped the world. I thought I couldn't do that, but I did."

"... What is you after all?"

"I'm nothing more. I just exist. It's almost over."

"... Is it going to die?"

"I don't know. I've never been like me. I've never been able to exist when I'm separated from the world. But Leon gave me time. Give me the last time I like to live I got it. "

"Yeah ... Does Leon know that?"

I already know the answer to the question. Eriel believes that this is the word of sympathy that Leon gave.

"I know. Rion is now by my side, but he can escape. He is so friendly ..."

"How much more?"

"I don't know ... I don't know what will happen. That's scary."

"Is it scary to die even if you are like you?"

"No, I'm scared that I wasn't there. I'm a forbidden person in this world, I might even be there. That's good. I don't want you to ... only for Rion ... "

Tears of the large flows from endlessly Alice's eyes. From this, it is not special that Eriel was a part of the world, but a girl. Only for girls who are in love.

"... Rion never forgets you, because he was always against the world."

"... Yeah"

"I will never forget. I will never forget the grudge that robbed me of Rion even once."

"……Thank you"

"I'm not thanking you. I'm grudged at you."

"That's right ... me and you are rivals."

Rivals, not enemies. This is a change in Alice's feelings about Aeriel. Alice thought it was correct to allow Rion to return to Bandeau. Because you can see Rion's happiness with his eyes.
