Extraordinary – Ordinary – Soap!

Back to the Royal Palace, Lucia

In the end, there was an awesome noise all the way to Artad Castle. The hedges have been uninterrupted for a long time, but only the path we take is completely empty. I've never seen anything like it. No, you were welcome in Fatna, but not so far, really. It feels different in scale already. That's all the purification of the celestial tree must have meant that people were waiting for it, but it's surprising.

And that didn't change after I crept through the castle gate and entered the castle. Because the castle can only be entered by people who have obtained permission (I have to show my ID at the castle gate. I also returned my uniform, but I still have my ID card), and those inside were ladies dressed in attire, soldiers in armor, knights in team uniforms, graduate students in uniform academia and fellows in robes, among others, who qualified to enter the castle, greeted me in rank order from the entrance. Is it you who are at work or have you welcomed me outside the castle gate like Kikka and the others?

Until the entrance to the castle, they did not get off horses or carriages. I've never been on the side of being greeted this way, so I feel really uncomfortable or weird. When you finally get off the horse to get inside the castle, the horses will take the horses silently. Ugh, this sight, I've never even seen it before, but I can't believe you're on the wrong side...!

Unlike me, who makes my eyes black and white, Maria and everyone else are magnificent. Maria, with her cheeky face hiding her usual emotional expression, had a thin jaw-lifting pose in her hall, just like the Virgin. Ever since we rendezvoused in the Duchy of Batis, it was just a triumph to wear a relatively moveable piece, now in the graceful dress that we had initially worn. But that suits me well again, and I won't take a pull from His Highness Edoardo, who is escorted next door.

After Maria and His Highness the captain walks with Mr. Lennart, behind him Mr. Ceres, and Erik, Mr. Gaius, with me.

The line of pick-ups to the point of reclining continued all the way inside the castle. The more you go in the back, the higher the rank you have. It was a tremendous load for me, a small citizen, to walk among the civilian and academia researchers who were not on the table, all of whom uniformly paid the most tribute. to, I want to escape......! I checked with Chirali and everyone who walks in front of me, but I can't see the slightest bit of barometric pressure like me. Why are you all fine!? Because you are used to it??

Nevertheless, there was no way I could escape, and I was desperate to follow my fellow members. Initially, the instructions came from His Highness to escort Maria behind her and walk (I can't adventure like that!), you worshipped it down and tailed it, didn't you? But...... this might not have made much sense. It's so conspicuous. I'm walking around hiding in the shadow of Mr. Gaius's big body, but I can see his gaze coming through me. That's right, it would stand out if suddenly there was an increase in the number of people and after this member who looked like a samurai I was beautiful. So far no one in the castle can see that she's a former launderer, so she really says, "Who is that guy? You're pretty sure they think."

Turn several corners and finally get to the front of a certain room. As soon as Mr. Maria and Her Highness stood in front of the door, the knight standing beside her was forced to correct her residence and take the most salute, and at the same time the door opened inward.

"Welcome back, Your Highness. Virgin, you are safe."

"Uhm. Show Maria and the others to the Yukan, so they can get up to speed. And have a light meal. They are all my" fellow travelers ”and“ heroes of salvation ”. Never be rude. Godfred, Father."

"Your highness is already waiting."

It was an elderly butler who was inside. The person, with his bright white hair neatly placed behind him, talks to His Highness when he bows at a beautiful angle. Returning to the face of His Royal Highness Prince Wang instead of his usual expression, His Royal Highness skipped such instructions to the butler.

"I'm going to report my journey to Father. You will wait in this room."

Then when Maria clasped her hand up and gently dropped her lips on the back of her hand, Her Royal Highness left the room with a crease. As that was the signal, the royal palace samurai, who had refrained behind the butler, parted hands and came before us.

Ladies and gentlemen, this way.

Men and women seem to be in different places, and the ladies guide us to separate doors. However, for a moment I was hesitant to go with the surprised gaze of the ladies thrown at me. You're definitely a suspicious person, aren't you? You may have no choice but to distrust the fact that people who weren't there when you left are mixed up as a matter of course.

Maria held my hand as if she had anticipated such a tour of me.

"Let's go, Lucia! That's not how you want to stay alone! You're my best friend!

It came to my attention that Maria's declaration compared us both as if the samurai who were trying to guide us were surprised.

"What, complaining wack? Lucia is my dearest friend. Come with me. What's wrong?

"No, that's not true. Virgin, come here."

That's the royal palace samurai. Upon rectifying her expression, she led Maria and me to the back door. Maria and I will walk out with our hands together afterwards.

My hand touched me faintly when I made a mistake with Mr. Ceres. When I looked at my face unexpectedly, my empty eyes stood in tender light and looked at me. Even if I didn't put it into words, I'd be kind of happy to feel Mr. Ceres' feelings.
