Kyuuketsu Hime wa Barairo no Yume o Miru

Crimson liquid is poured into a wine glass made by scraping out diamonds while playing a slightly muddy sound.

"It's a local nobleman, but it's the eldest daughter of a 17-year-old nobleman, in the blood tide of a virgin."

Heaven drinks it with a gentle breath as he sideways watches the bottle back in front without spilling a drop.

"After all, even the aristocrats have a better taste of country daughters who are somewhat accustomed to vegetarian food. Central aristocracy is very greasy and flavorful. It's nothing aristocratic, so the flavor is not exceptional."

"I see. With reference to that phrase, we will pay more attention to quality next time."

I felt gloomy when I thought it would be hard to procure food (blood) in the future when it comes to the words of heaven to thank me again with my deer-clawed face.

Then I wondered. I wonder how long it's been since I was able to smell blood like this at some point, and be seen splitting it up as a staple.

I do think I was quite hesitant in the beginning, but I guess I felt used to it when I realized it. Maybe a human being is something you forget at some point if you eat dinner every day and do your routine, no matter what unpleasant or painful things happen. Well, it's up to people to see this as strength and weakness.

"... what have you done, princess? You're not here, are you?

Sounds like an addition was put in the glass I was holding at some point, and heaven frowns at how Boku was thinking with a single elbow on his side breath (today).

"Oh, I'm sorry. Think about the future. When the ground is completely destroyed, the blood will have to be collected from the inhabitants who evacuated it in the air garden, so I don't think it's very luxurious."

"Nothing to that extent, nothing more disturbing than a princess. Don't worry, it will increase in number of humans and, if necessary, it will be separately secured and bred for feeding exclusively to the princess."

Uh... I figured the idea was livestock (monsters), or it was really me. I don't know if some kind of aerial garden is going to be a human ark on the ground or just my livestock hut.

"Well don't overdo it around there. We just need to be able to live a life free from each other."

"I understand."

I wonder if it's true...?

"Um... I hope your daughter isn't crippled. I have a very narrow shoulder..."

In somewhat unsatisfactory tone, near the entrance and exit between the lower steps of one of my private rooms in Vacant Red Jade Castle - about 500 tatami rooms facing a Japanese-style garden with vast dead mountain waters - without even giving a seating futon, Shadowloon, who was pouring and sipping contents directly onto the tambourine placed on the tatami, gently waved the dombourine he had obtained.

"I mean, this smells strangely raw... no, it's blood, so naturally, but I persist as strange, but what kind of blood is it from?

Heavenly remains faceless about his attitude of complaining about the food served on his face on his own... at first explain it in a puzzling manner.

"Regardless, all the things in this castle are the blood of carefully selected virgins and virgins"

"Huh? ……

Shadow Lang carrying Dombri into his mouth with an unconvincing face at any rate.

"By the way, that's blood collected from a 38-year-old unemployed virgin, bald, fat, toddler hobby (Loricon) man."

"- Buh!!

Mr. Shadow Lang sprays as much blood as he wants that was in his mouth.

"What a drink you gave me... what a drink..."

Extremely impressed (?) Looking coldly at him in tears, "It's something you just want to be thankful for being served," he said, throwing up. When Heavenly sent a signal, a maid troop who appeared out of nowhere began to clean dirty tatami and stuff.

"Princess, I beg your pardon for your indulgence."

There, as usual, the Capital of Life, who had taken the head of a practical discussion in the conference room, came into the room with a single voice.

I caught my eye on Shadow Lang, who was hitting around in the lower seat, and the maids who were ragging around him, and I looked suspicious for a moment, but looked at me and Heavenly, who was flat, and decided that it was not even a matter to bear in mind, and I gratefully took my feet between the upper steps, which were a step taller.

"The approximate policies of each country have been decided. With that, Princess Oriana, King Collard and representatives of Levan would like to speak to the princess personally, would you like to?

"Right, I want to talk to them personally, too, so here -"

And I remembered Shadowloon, who I thought was in attendance - well, he wouldn't make me understand the signs, but in case, and they wouldn't be used to the Japanese-room in the first place - so I decided to change the place.

"No, show me to the separate room. If I ever see Mr. Shadowloon again, I may fall down."

When I accidentally leaked my sigh, Shadowloon, who was being driven to the edge and had eaten a bun for a mouth fix, lowered his head gently as he scratched his cheek with a puffy, index finger.

"Sorry to take care of you, lady"

"Well, that's good. But we'll have to explain this properly when we're done."

Remaining a kimono like the Twelve - in fact, what a gown, with rose prints and snow patterns at the top in white innocence - I shrugged my shoulders gently and I headed to the exit.

"... though, it's a question of whether I have that opportunity"

I sighed unexpectedly in anticipation of what those three were going to say about the "fog" thing.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

"In conclusion, I saw a consensus between the ages of 13 and 20 by selecting men and women who were healthy and sound… unbiased in their thoughts and of some stature equally"

Oriana lay her eyes down looking sorry for the "identity" part.

"We are well aware of the injustice, but overwhelmingly… we don't have enough time to be vain. It is impossible to inform all the people from now on, so as soon as I return to the Imperial Capital, I plan to set up a messenger in my presence and make secret contact with the applicable persons in the vicinity of the capital. Of course, it cannot be abducted without the consent of the person, so if it is objected to, often… In a week or so, 'fog' covers all empires, so it is in the form of imprisonment or surveillance for that period of time."

With a blown out look somewhere, next to her with a smile on her face, you had Christoph on you.

"Well, that would be a reasonable decision. Because the land is huge, what's wrong with you is that you are evacuated by" fog ", fluent language is similar, and there is also the possibility of looting and worst force beeping multiplied by confusion. I think it's the right thing to do in secret."

Then I asked as naturally as possible.

"So, Suzuran - when are you moving this way?

Oriana's smile spread.

"As an exchanger, I want to accomplish what needs to be done to the end. You don't need my share of seats. Instead - not that I'm leaving Grand Duke Christoph like this, thank you."

I guess we were discussing this in advance. Next to you, Christoph, who leans down with a bitter look, Oriana bowed her head.

King Collard, who had accompanied Chloe by deciding that her story had come to a paragraph, also had a transparent grin.

"Amitia (of which) plans to persuade adventurers to look at young people above the B-rank and magicians above the national level 2 who are likely to have future prospects. Fortunately, our country has a little leeway until the arrival of 'fog', and there is considerable leeway to limit the number of people, so it is a policy to give some publicity to the people"

"I think it's gonna be a lot of noise, though?

"I'm ready. And if I was to be dismissed... well, it was like sitting back. Your majesty isn't going to chase you into the fog and tie you to the king's chair."

Putting my wife's shoulder over with a laugh - but in relation to her height, it took the form of Chloe being able to hold her the other way around - King Collard.

"... you're not going to evacuate either of us, are you?

I know, but I'll make sure.

"I'm sorry. In the form of cheering out the princess's work. But even though the pawnshop is fighting, there's no way a beast woman can do that. Three parents and three children, we'll fight till the end."

In Chloe's words, "Three......?" I couldn't grasp the meaning for a moment, but I could understand it at the top with her trick of gently touching my abdomen.

Looking at King Collard all the time, he smiles happily ever after, saying, "No, you're here".

- Are you ready to get married!? Now it's time for the real deal!!

"No, you can't! I can't believe you have a baby and it's a sacrifice! You will not forgive such a holy beast, Mr. Chloe!!"

His sister-in-law, Asmina, who came with Levan, changed her blood phase and stuffed her, but Chloe smiled troubled and slapped her head lightly.

"It's not about sacrifice or anything. If you were an animal woman, you'd stand up to what kind of opponent, but what kind of place? So I'm not going to lose. Just fight till you win."

I know, but I'm not convinced.

I was slated between reason and emotion, and I said, "Uh-huh!" and Levan gently taps and pulls Asmina's shoulder from behind, roaring with tears.

"Stop it already. You can't and shouldn't bend the other person's way of life. First of all, if that's what you're saying, you're the one who's right.

"You can't do that, brother-in-law! Where my brother-in-law is, it's my place, so even if it's in" Misty Mist, "it's going to be the end of hell!

In the prestigious presence of Asmina, Chloe smiled with a full smile, and Princess Oriana smiled, and Christoph looked back at me with a face that said something - yes? - The person at the time he was told turned out to be half shy and the other half shy of stalking fear...

On the shoulder of Levan, King Collard laid his hand in the face of translation.

"... you should give up. Wherever you go, men can't beat women."

There was sympathy on that face and a pitiful grin somewhere - 'Welcome to this bottomless world' - about the same disease.

"- So you're saying that neither of us will evacuate as well?

Asking Levan in the final confirmation, he nodded forcefully in the face.

"Yes, I am also a man of the Beast tribe, so I am responsible for leading the tribe to the end"

In those straight eyes, I couldn't find a word to go on.

"... Hmm. Stupid apprentice gets one end of the mouth."

And when was it coming there, an old man in a gray-haired gray-bearded robe over two meters - the Beast King stood in the corner of the room?

"Master?!"

"Big uncle!?"

Ignoring Levan and Asmina, who round their eyes, as well as Chloe, who thanked the warriors on the spot, the Beast King offered a deep salute as he walked up to me.

"I am truly ashamed of this sudden offer, but I would like to take you down as a martial arts guide today."

"... why?

"I don't feel comfortable with these people, etc. … As someone who calls them" Beast Kings, "I will fool myself into thinking that they are obliged to see the end of the Beast Nation at the end of the day"

Maybe he'll go without permission. If I thought so, I had no choice but to allow it.

"Okay. Thank you so much for your help, please be healthy..."

To my farewell greeting, with a tender grin to show for the first time, when I stood up with a grace, the Beast King turned his heel back to the Levans.

"… Master. I appreciate you worrying about us."

Towards Levan, who was half treated and dissatisfied, the Beast King unexpectedly honestly bowed his head.

"I'm sorry. If it had been the case, the Lord and others would have borne the hardships that Non should have borne. But he's an old man. At the end of the day, I want Non to give up his hard work."

"Master..."

With a poisoned look, Levan face-to-face with Asmina.

Moments...

"Ugh!!"

The Beast King's fist is sucked into Levan's dovetail, and his body, pruned of consciousness by one blow, collapses.

"To"

Behind Asmina's neck, which she tried to rush over to, at first glance she wondered if she had a light knife in, almost at the same time she was about to fall unconscious.

It was less than a second early.

Before breaking down on the floor, the Beast King, who quickly stopped the two bodies with both hands, bowed his head to me again as he laid them on a couch that was nearby with gentle hands.

"I'm sorry, but can you keep these two locked up somewhere for a while? If I say I want to, I will, but I want to entrust the future to these people."

Perhaps if we found out about this when we woke up from fainting, we'd both be able to live in anger and sadness. But resentment and mourning are spoiled, the will of steel was put in there.

"- Ho-ho, can I have these two, please?

So I called out to the god beast - the fox of the nine tails of white golden hair - who was holding back behind me.

"Leave it to me. Let me tell you something."

An empty hoe in his usual witch outfit advanced forward and commanded the incarnations of the sacred and spiritual beast under his command to bring them both out somewhere.

"... in the end, you mean all the kings of the nations will stay, right?

I looked around at the faces I had left in the room and checked again, although I think they are very feminine.

"You will. Well, it doesn't suit Her Majesty to be damp, so I'll stop saying goodbye."

King Collard calls the air, as usual, to get his hands on each other in an effortless manner.

I guess he knows. How vulnerable I am. So this is how you say it as usual.

"Right. It's a rushed farewell, but, well, the idiot disciples are still here, so you won't be bored."

This is also the usual iron-skinned Beast King.

"I won't say goodbye, either. I don't know if it's more or less' idle fog ', but if Her Majesty is here, then I think I'll manage."

When Oriana smiling said that easily, the other faces said to her mouth, "Well, maybe so."

"... it's weird how easy it is for everyone to be ruined by the world"

Saying so, they all looked at each other as if they had shown each other.

"Well, what do you call reopening when you get here already?"

King Collard answered with a smile as he fixed the position of his glasses.

"And I wonder if it's a big deal that I've known His Majesty the Princess. That witch lady I was with, she went back to her country with a blue face because of her short relationship."

Chloe continues later with a bitter smile.

Oh, well, has Eleanor left yet? Well, that's next to Aeon over there, and you can't help it because you're on the verge of a real countdown.

"Sure you can say that," Oriana rides her ass horse too. "If I had known Her Majesty, I might have been crushed under heavy pressure. I don't know... if, at the time of the ruin of the world, Her Majesty was on this occasion, and it still didn't extend, there was nothing anyone could do about it anymore... so I know that it felt like I could go around and calm down."

"I see it must be"

The voice of the Beast King also included laughter.

"Now, once we get back to our country, I'll see you again, Your Highness."

Out of the room each made a brief greeting, derising the words.

Left behind, I bit my lips softly in a room that suddenly felt like it was getting bigger.
