"Wait, that's just fine - I'll work with you too"

That's what Alicia said.

When he got up with his little body and approached me in front of him trying to open the door, he looked up, not upbeat, but strong. Its invincibly hung mouth ends make her feel the height of her style and elegance, the princess.

And

She came at me. [M] Her, but little, white, tender, only girl's hand in a position of princess.

"Tough, take me too. The problem with that mansion... is of the utmost importance to me."

The meaning of that hand is to shake hands to be a collaborator rather than a companion. As a collaborator, it was her silent contract to take this hand.

If I take this hand, this third princess will, as my collaborator, give me all kinds of cooperation on the case of that mansion. That is the way in which royal authority was used at all costs. I think that's a delicious story for me. Speaking of cons, I guess when I get around to knowing about my involvement with the royal family, I might get a little noticeable after I solve that mansion thing.

But it's not that big of a deal to me right now.

If you can help me, I don't think so. I want you to fully use the power and power of the king to help me. So I was offered that hand...

"I'm sorry, my child is a dangerous eye-opener."

- I didn't grip it.

"What... to?

Indeed, that cooperation is certainly fascinating. I'm sure not, if you can get the king's authority or the help he can have, that would be a very good thing. It doesn't have any disadvantages for me, and because they are unidentified and invisible, I think it would be better to have a little more cooperation.

But I can't accept Alicia's cooperation. Even if Alicia was a samurai of a hundred wars, I can't accept her cooperation.

Because she's still... 'cause she's a 7-year-old'.

No matter how smart or powerful a princess is, I don't need the help of a child. Kids are supposed to be protected, and it's not good to take them to dangerous places on the front lines.

It doesn't matter if you're strong or weak there, the child needs to be protected. Normally playing, eating, sleeping, and peace in a peaceful routine are the rights that should be given to a born child.

I wasn't given that. [M]

- At least for my unhappiness, I'm sorry someone isn't happy.

That's why I don't need Alicia's help.

"Kids are childish, smile and live happily ever after"

I said that to Alicia with a thin laugh. [M]

I won't tolerate complaining. Kids are not good beings with their necks in battle. You should drop off the back of an adult heading to battle with skill and wait for him to return worried. And when an adult dies, all you have to do is cry.

Think about how you feel when you're worried. If you say such a dialogue, as far as I'm concerned, I'm in full swing.

"... treat me like a child?

"That's right, you're only a 7-year-old. The princesses have nothing to do with this. I refuse to cooperate with you more than you are a child."

Alicia pulled in the hand she offered and stared at me in a grumpy way.

Perhaps this child, because he is an adult, is a genius, has ever had a variety of opinions with adults, and the adults have treated Alicia as a person in the same position as themselves, looking at her position as a princess and her talents.

But I'm not, am I? I don't treat you special. [M] Genius or princess? I don't know. I'm the only child there.

"Even if I'm the next queen in this country?

"Heh, that's a great position. So, what? You want me to get down on my knees and kiss my hands?

Alicia told me that as an analogy story, but I'm gonna kick it. It was an analogy story, but I'm sure that's true. Alicia makes you a third princess, the next queen of this country. I think that's a really great position person, and an adventurer like me deserves to be disrespectful in and of itself in this conversation.

But you can't give up on this.

"............... you're really not like the others"

That's what Alicia said, breathing heavily out of her shoulders all the time.

And scratch up your habitual hair. The gaze that seemed to stare is back into the eyes that are just a little poorly noticed as usual. She pointed her lips slightly and wondered what was wrong with her.

Then Alicia, who exhaled loudly again, sat back in the chair again.

"I know I'm a genius, even though I say so myself. I'm also aware that I'm too premature, so I'm out of a reign, and I can mingle with the adults and give them a better opinion than they do. As far as I can remember, I was treated like a child until I was three or four years old. By the time I realized it, I was already involved in politics."

"Hmm."

"That's why I've never seen a guy like you. Sure, I'm a kid, but it wouldn't be like a normal kid, would it? So at some point it felt natural not to be treated like a child... but finally I didn't think anyone would treat me like a child."

Alicia smiled after looking at me a little bit. [M]

"It would be good. Then I won't go to the mansion... but can we work together in a different direction?

"In a different direction?

"If there is anything necessary in this country to solve the problem of that mansion, there is no sin in doing something somewhat unscrupulous. Let's also allow access to the castle. I have to talk to Sister Iris about the book in the library, but I will allow it to be viewed myself. Well, the library is under the jurisdiction of Sister Iris, and Sister Olivia's overprotective character... please don't scare Sister Iris when browsing books in the library."

Hmm, cooperation in that sense? Surely, there is no danger, and I'm the only one who gave you permission for all kinds of things so that you can move easily? Well, I'll do it without your permission, but I'll be free to enter the library and the castle, and if I have to, even if I'm guilty.

But, well, if you're going to allow me to do that, okay? To this extent, it's a promise, and the library matter is like a precaution for use.

If you're guilty later, let's get out of here. You won't be able to learn combat techniques, but do you have to head to Toko, the brave one?

Well, then I guess I'll head to the library.

"Thank you, bye, Alicia. You should eat a lot, sleep, and grow up soon."

"Hmm, time goes by fast even if they don't say so. If you don't like it, you'll grow up to be the most beautiful woman in the world you'll ever fall in love with.

"Haha, that's a lot of confidence again. I'm looking forward to it. - Bye."

"Oh, bye. Just fix that mansion problem."

That's what Alicia said and waved at me. Apparently, he's really not going to the mansion anymore. Kids are childish, and I don't know if you took my word for saying that, or if you pretended to give up.

Well, then I guess I'll go to the library again. Alicia told me not to frighten Iris... but that sounds pretty difficult.

With that in mind, I stepped out of Alicia's room, a killer landscape.

◇ ◇ ◇

In the room where the orange noise was gone, Alicia Luxhide sighed one person.

She was born seven years ago, as you can tell by counting backwards from her age. And at the same time as she was born, to be the king's wife. Her mother, or queen, is dead.

At that time, from the time of her dressing up as Alicia, the Queen's health gradually decreased and her body gradually weakened. It also makes my stomach grow bigger, but gradually... twitch.

- It was as if my belly child was sucking all the energy out of me.

But she gave birth to Alicia. And at the same time, she died like she had exhausted all her powers. I never held Alicia, who had given birth to herself, and she died.

And the king loved Alicia by naming her 'Alicia', and raised her to this day.

But Alicia's talent was such a substitute for the resurgence of Alice Luxhide that she could stand and walk on two legs at the age of one, and when she was a couple of years old, she was a dear child, like she missed a variety of books, mainly history books. Furthermore, some time after I started reading the book, she even started talking.

When she turned 4, she started giving opinions where she took her to politics, meetings, etc. that no one would come up with.

And then she reveals that genius. In the three years from the time she was four years old, when she began to speak to politics, to the present age of seven, she let the Lukeswaid kingdom's various problems be solved.

Resident dissatisfaction has also been reduced to less than half of what it once was, and various things have been accomplished, including economic problems and improvements to the castle's business system. That outstanding talent was acknowledged by everyone in the earliest first year.

- She said she was a genius.

That's why, until now, she didn't think she had anyone to treat herself like a child, and that even if she was there, she wouldn't know her identity.

But now that an orange noise had appeared, I knew it again. He said he was still a child.

"... kid, heh... heh, it's been a long time since you've said that"

Squirting Alicia. The tone is not as majestic as the orange sounds or the tone we were talking about in front of Olivia. It was a normal tone, of a girl who seemed to be everywhere normally. No heart or a little tone, soft.

"It's funny... tough, tough... hehe, even kids. Heh heh..."

The look on Alicia's face, which looks fun, funny, and dull, is the girl of her age itself.

Her usual attitude was apparently the character she was making. The majestic tone, the king's style, the penetrating expression, the figure of Alicia, all undressed, was there.

Perhaps neither the king nor the sisters, Olivia and the others, have seen the nature of Alicia, not even the soldiers. Alicia's face, which she shows only while alone in this murderous room, was somewhere neat... yes, she looked happy as if she was a child who had bought a new toy for a long time.

"... Shall I put something in this room as well? Like a stuffed animal or something? Heh heh."

Alicia looked over at the room with that look on her face and squealed pompously.
