Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician
Outside, 570. Prince's determination.
The feast in the Kingdom of Groufonica went past in a lively fashion, showing considerable exuberance.
A day after dawn... Sometimes my plans for today are that last night was a banquet, and if I don't have any plans in particular, I will stay slowly in the Kingdom of Glowfonica.
Those who drink deeply want to heal the fatigue of such banquets. Relax in the Royal Castle guestrooms or sightseeing the King's Capital of Glowfonica.
As for us - we're going to spend some time in the Royal Castle. Rather than being called out by King Melvin. He wants to hear about what he's seen on his journey.
I was called at a banquet last night. He also makes regular reports to match his daily progress and reports about the upside when he meets face to face, but he wants to talk about it in a crushed place rather than in such a formal way.
Not only to me, but also to Prince Albert and Prince Hellfreet. The party, the Nereids and the deep fishermen, didn't mind together...
"In that case, I'm wondering if it's a place where I can talk to His Highness Hellfreet about Katia."
And, when I get back for breakfast, Albert and Ophelia, Prince Hellfreet and Katia will also be gathered in the room for a little operational meeting.
Whether you want to cut Prince Hellfleet and Katya out to King Melvin, there is a step. For example, in a feast seat like yesterday, there are too many people to tell, and King Melvin is in the queue as an invitee, so it's not a place to cut out those stories.
Now that this is going to be a little more private, could we cut out a story about Prince Hellfreet and Katia?
"I guess I figured it out somehow... and it might be possible that my father made a scene like this because he saw Hellfleet last night and had something to observe."
Rosemary does the analysis that way. Right. Isn't that an impossible story, too?
"Uh. I... Was it that easy to understand?
"Well, you know, it's hard for us to be objective."
To Prince Hellfreet's words, Albert says with a few ideas.
Last night Prince Hellfleet - he did manage to see Katia smiling and exchanging words - getting close.
It's just that Albert's right, because we knew about the relationship. Rosemary broke through from information and circumstances, so even if it's likely that the flesh parents would have noticed or guessed if they had watched, it might be possible that last night's banquet was so crowded that they didn't have eyes on the Princes of Hellfreet... and King Melvin's intentions are still unknown.
And... even if I can assist with this kind of operation meeting, it's hard to get a direct mouthfeel from me.
Because my position is so influential that I can't say that it's preferable to speak out about stories involving royal marriage. Well... if King Melvin asks me for my opinion, I will change the subject again, but only because I helped in my friendship with the Nereids and solved the Folgaro commotion with a series of connections from there.
I also know Prince Hellfleet around there... so it becomes important to know where and how to cut it out after... Well.
"I..."
And, Prince Hellfreet opened his mouth quietly, and mouthed his thoughts.
The place to talk to King Melvin was the garden where we first met King Demetrio. Moving to the garden a short time before it was time for the appointment, King Melvin and his escorts eventually showed up.
"Oh, Theodore. Have I kept you waiting?
"No. We just got here too. But... before we talk about this journey, I'd like to speak with Her Highness Hellfleet and Miss Katia, the niece of the Nereid chief."
"Ho."
In my words, King Melvin opens his eyes a little and puts his gaze on Prince Helfried and Katia.
"Hmm. I wonder if it was Katya next door"
"Yes, Father."
"My name is Katya"
and Prince Helfried and Katia greet King Melvin with a slightly nervous face.
"We... we'd like to wait a little further from the garden until we're done talking about you two."
"Aye, okay."
King Melvin nods quietly.
Prince Hellfreet and Katia's decision - to talk without covering up the first time.
The incident that started with the Nereid searcher became important, but I didn't anticipate anything about Forgallo when I first headed to Groufonica.
The only thing that led to Folgaro's resolution was the theory of results, so I didn't think it was merit or anything, and Prince Helfried and Katia chose to communicate their feelings frankly without relying on anyone.
It also fits the words of King Melvin, who wants to hear about his journey.
King Melvin turned to the two of them with a little seriousness - whether there was anything to think about how the Princes of Hellfleet were doing. That's how I say, indicating the East Room.
"Hmm. Well, if you need to talk, let's hear it."
"Thank you"
Prince Helfried and Katia move to the east room of the garden with King Melvin. That's how Prince Hellfreet takes a deep breath when he leans back against Higashiya. King Melvin waited quietly for Prince Helfried to cut the story out.
"So... about one incident with the Nereid tribe that started. As I told you, I'm the first to apologize for something my father couldn't cut out."
Apparently, he decided to. Prince Hellfreet starts talking. You can't go back if you put it in your mouth like this.
As I told you, I met Katia. At first, she treated Katia, who was injured due to her relationship with Grantios, and was consulted on it.
"Until her injuries healed... while we were talking to Katia about her story in the Kingdom of Grantios, about the life of the sea, about the life of the land... well, I think we were attracted to each other"
Clearly, Prince Hellfleet told him with his mouth out.
Hearing the story, King Melvin did not look surprised. At the point where we both wanted to talk in the garden, there might have been a prediction of what was going on around there. Or were you guessing something at a much earlier stage?
"... Hmm. Love between the people of land and the people of the sea, huh? I also have a position. Different places to live. I don't talk to the other Nereids, and I don't know if I could have revealed anything else within the opaque prospects."
"Well... His Highness the Hellfreet thought about our clan. It's a difficult situation to tell non-clans about our clan secrets."
Katia also says nervously. King Melvin sends his gaze to the knights of the escort, and when he leaves them a little, he listens to Katia's words.
The words Katia tells King Melvin - they were whispering, so we don't know.
However, I understand what you are communicating. It's about the life expectancy of the Nereids and their partners. The Nereids, close to the Spirit, are a long-lived species, but they share life expectancy with their partner, whom they have ordained. So... it's a secret to the Nereids. We must avoid using that thought by the bad guys.
"I see... then surely, we can't leak it to the rest of you, and we'll know to be cautious. What's left for me to ask, is that the chief also knows?
"Yes."
When Katia nods in anticipation of King Melvin. King Melvin closes his eyes.
"I swear I will not divulge the rest to anyone else in the honor of the Verdogal royal family."
"Thank you......!
"Good. The chief also knows that the Nereids admit about the two... Hmm"
King Melvin put it that far, frowning at the root of his eyebrows to make it look like he was conceiving.
Put aside for a few moments - I looked at Prince Hellfleet and Katia's worried face and smiled bitterly and waved, "Oh, no, no, no, no.
"As for the rest - then I want to do what I want. To do that, I thought about how I should treat that secret later in life."
Prince Helfried and Katia looked at King Melvin's words like that. Bite down the meaning of the word and get a bright look. King Melvin laughs calmly at those two.
"- It's not a bad story, politically speaking, or in the sense of keeping a deeper connection with the western ocean nations and the people of the sea. Would you have thought about those profits even then? Don't talk about it, don't handle one of Folgaro's cases, don't even try to rely on Theodore and the others. We just tried to tell each other how we felt in one place. Let's buy that mind."
Right...... Though I knew it would be a better impression on King Melvin to bump into honest feelings. If you can't go back, it's still human beings who want to say extra things to make it all right.
I do have a profit. Even if I could answer if asked, I didn't try to sell from myself, but I restrained myself from relying on connections and stood on my own arrows. Such a way of being Prince Hellfleet and Katia may be the preferred one for King Melvin.
"Therefore - let me tell you the rest clearly. I'll allow you two to socialize and get engaged. You just have to think about the problems."
"Oh, thank you!
To King Melvin's words, Prince Helfried and Katia stood up and bowed in such a way that their bodies moved unexpectedly. King Melvin smiles contentedly. Set aside for a little while and Prince Hellfleet, with his face up, asks for an aside.
"The... Father didn't seem too surprised... Were you thinking about it thinly, maybe? My sister broke me out..."
King Melvin laughs at Prince Hellfreet's words.
"Gladys seemed to think he had a favorite opponent. The rest came to the certainty... that it would be the fold of last night's feast"
Second Queen Gladys - you're the real mother of Rosemary and Prince Hellfreet. Isn't it strange that Queen Gladys might have guessed something if Rosemary had guessed?
If that's how you were listening to Queen Gladys, King Melvin can be guessed by what he's been talking about and how he was yesterday, too.
"Again... from the side, is it easy to understand"
He is Prince Hellfleet, who drops his shoulders slightly.
"Pfft. Besides, Theodore seemed concerned not to talk about it... which paradoxically also means he doesn't have to disagree with this story. It would also be an indication of Katia's character that she has seen during her journey. That's why I was able to make the decision to grant the engagement on this occasion. Gladys also said that if Hellfleet had met someone who was accompanied by Theodore and Albert, there would be no mistake."
King Melvin looked at me and laughed.
"That's... here I come. Your Majesty is right."
And when Albert and I looked at each other and then replied with a bitter smile, King Melvin laughed with pleasure.
