Risou no Himo Seikatsu

Noon the next day.

Sanjiro, who finished his lunch, was walking alongside Aura in the hallway of the Royal Palace.

I'm supposed to be wearing a blunt dragon leather cloth shoe for anti-slip on the bottom, but I kind of started earlier, like I'm walking on a sponge, my feet are fluffy and bumpy.

In the name of lending a hand to his wife of weight, it is Sanjiro who is holding hands with Aura walking next door, but rather thanks to the feel of his connected hand, it is the current situation that he manages to remain calm.

I guess you understand my husband's psychological situation. Aura regularly puts her strength into her gripping hands to encourage this one. Thankful on the other hand, a little pitiful.

(Though, it's more impotent to say don't be nervous in this situation. I've been nervous since I first told my senior to take the lead on this contract)

Compared to that time, the task entrusted to me is insignificant, but the one hanging on that job is hugely out of step.

If I'm allowed to, I just want to take a big, deep breath in this place and relieve the tension.

If it were just me and Aura on this occasion, I would definitely have done so. But needless to say, Yoshijiro and Aura are not the only ones on this scene.

No matter how much inside the royal palace, there is a queen and a king.

Four in front of Sanjiro and Aura walking next to each other, four behind them. A total of eight soldiers are consolidating their front and rear.

The soldiers' arming is either a substitute for white leather armor or short spears with many decorations, which have a strong shade of liturgy, but the defense of leather armor and the sharpness of the short spears are both authentic.

Sanjiro, whose spear tip glow in his eyes, shivers his spine with Zokri.

Even if we know it's for escort, it's unsettling to be able to consolidate back and forth to someone with the tools to kill people.

(Well, I guess this is still a less daunting escort, considering where Aura and I stand.)

Instead of such a deep place in the royal palace, if Yoshijiro becomes active 'outside', he should be able to take at least this ten times more escorts.

While Yoshijiro was thinking about it, soldiers walking in front stopped that foot in front of one door.

Yoshijiro and Aura also stop in front of the door where the soldiers, holding the short spear vertically and in an upright immovable position, cemented both sides.

Beyond this door, the messengers of the two kingdoms of Shalova Zilbert await.

…………

Nature and Sanjiro turned to Aura standing next to him. At the moment of his gaze, he nodded back to his wife, similarly nodding small, and briefly told the soldiers who suppressed the urge to open the door with their own hands and refrained from doing so.

"Open it."

"Ha!"

Taking the life of Yoshijiro, one soldier slowly pulls open the door.

To avoid being noticed around him, Yoshijiro, who took a thin, deep breath, consciously took a slow step and dived into the door.

"I'll catch your eye first, Master Zenzilow. My name is Moreno Militello, knight of the two kingdoms of Charois Gilbert. I am delighted to have the opportunity to worship the honorable face of Master Zenjiro."

To the middle-aged man who bows his head in awe across the table, Yoshijiro nods to Eagle Deep on the chair and returns his words briefly.

"It's Sanjiro. King of the Kingdom of Karpua, husband of His Majesty Aura"

When naming externally, Okijiro always says this. Not as one royalty, but as the companion of Queen Aura, I am here. That's a sign of intent.

The diplomats of the two kingdoms sitting face to face, knowing or not the intentions of such a good jiro, bow their heads again with a fearful look.

"Well, I'm just finishing my introduction to my son-in-law, shall we get down to business? We don't have much time."

And, it was Aura sitting next to Yoshijiro who cut the first tantrum.

A slightly sloppy posture with the body left behind behind the back of the chair so that the large belly is not disturbed, but even from such a posture Aura's words can feel the strong pressure characteristic of a human being who could have unilaterally ordained it.

"Ha, I understand"

to diplomats bowing their heads again with polite words, Aura has recently done her hand to her jaw, which is a little concerned about rounding,

"Mm-hmm. Now for the apparent matter and for the real matter. Which way do you want to put a piece?

and inquire.

"Ha, then let me clean it up first from a superficial matter. Both sires have been requested, 'The Ring' has arrived."

To the queen's words, so the middle-aged diplomat put two twirled rings in a purple thick cloth, on the table.

A pairing of three brilliant-cut diamonds on a gold pedestal, decorated in succession.

You can't even look at it wrong. It's a wedding ring for two people, purchased by Yoshijiro on Earth.

In normal 'eyes', nowhere seems to have changed, but now that he has awakened to his magical visibility abilities, Sanjiro sees the light of magic rising from the ring.

It's a trivial thing compared to the magic light that's rising out of me and Aura's body, but I started to see just objects that aren't creatures haunt magic.

The handover of the wedding ring I asked you to propagate. That is the 'superficial' matter in which, today, Yoshijiro and Aura have all set up a place for talks with diplomats from both kingdoms. On a daily basis, these apparent reasons were needed for Sanjiro, who only came out of the rear palace in the form of "Aura's proxy", to face Aura and the occasion without being surprised by his surroundings.

To Sanjiro, who is looking at the ring with interest, the diplomat explains even the effect of the ring as a magic prop.

"His Majesty's ring contains the magic of 'Fire' and Master Zenzilow's ring contains the magic of 'Water Making'. Fire is" Prince Francesco "and water production is a delicacy at the hands of" Princess Margarita "."

It was Aura who reacted to the words.

"Well, as far as fear is concerned, you annoyed the hands of His Highness Francesco and Princess Margarita. I'll pay you a thank you later, so give it to both Your Highnesses."

Prince Francesco and Princess Margarita. Both are particularly well-known users of the 'conferring magic' among the Royal Sharova lineage. He wasn't stupid enough to take the hand out of the magic prop making requested because he was the opponent in the diplomacy behind him.

"Yes, we will deliver responsibly"

With that word of the diplomat, the handover of the ring, an apparent matter, was completed.

From here on out, it's the real deal.

"Now, we have some time, and I want to get down to business. This will be the official text of this Convention. If you are convinced to wear it through your eyes now, please sign it here."

That's why the diplomat spread the light green dragon skin paper over the table.

Though covenant texts, formal writing on boulders uses surprisingly superior paper. On a light green paper that is fairly close to white, a black letter is written.

As for the letters in this world, Yoshijiro is the only English reader in junior high school, but even that Yoshijiro can see that the letters on this dragon-skinned paper are very neat.

It was Aura who opened her mouth in front of the treaty text she was offered.

"Unfortunately, my son-in-law still can't read the letters we use. Read the full story."

"Oh, you did. Excuse me. Then, overstepping."

If he refuses to do so, the diplomat reads it out, pointing one at a time to the item of dragon-skinned paper he offered before Yoshijiro and Aura.

"Okay, here we go.

1. Zenzilow Karpua [A] shall not have children with any person other than Aura Karpua [B] hereinafter.

2 · The two kingdoms do not interfere in any way with the direct line of [B].

3 · If the Kingdom of Karpua breaks 1 and [A] has a son with a human being other than [B], the two kingdoms have the right to examine the lineage magic propriety of that child [C]... "

He is Sanjiro, who concentrates his nerves on his ears so that he doesn't miss hearing while doing his best to fix his faceless expression, but so far there is nothing strange about the text he hears.

It was in the last part that I saw a small change in the voice of the diplomat reading it out.

"… as a rule, to pay three thousand gold coins"

This is the end of the sentence Yoshijiro had Aura read out last night. However, the dragon-skinned paper pointed out by the diplomat who was pointing and reading out one paragraph at a time still has a sentence under it.

The diplomat, after just a little silence, points and reads out the item under it by cramping the cheekmeat pickly.

"Additional items. If 2 and 3 create a future conflict, 2 takes precedence. … that's it."

That was the item that Yoshijiro suggested to Aura last night.

Contradictions between paragraphs 2 and 3. Simply put, if in the future the direct line of Aura and Yoshijiro and the descendants of Yoshijiro and the side line of the side chamber become marital relations at the same time, do the two kingdoms have the right to interfere with the child? It is a question of

If we take over paragraph 2, the child will have no right to interfere in the two kingdoms because he is the blood muscle of Aura, a direct lineage. But if you look at paragraph three, the two kingdoms will have the right to interfere, because the child is the blood muscle of a side chamber born of a breach of the covenant.

It won't have anything to do with Shinjiro's children's generation, but it will be realistic as early as the grandchildren's generation, and later in the day or so.

When the surprised Sanjiro looks at Aura on the side, Aura laughs small and nods back slightly.

I was a good jiro who pointed out various tight sentences holes last night, but I was quick to say that my opinion could not be taken into account when I heard that today's signing would take place as planned.

(Did you add this item in advance negotiations within the morning? I don't think so. Our daughter-in-law)

Once again, he was a good jiro who fell back in love with his daughter-in-law's ability to act, but Aura had similar thoughts in her heart.

In common sense, it is normal to assume that two paragraphs take precedence over three. However, as Yoshijiro was concerned last night, it is also a story that can be strongly argued if not explicitly cultured.

Neither will the two kingdoms make such a strong argument while the power relations between the two countries are almost equal, as is currently the case, but we do not know about the future. I don't want to think about it, but if, in the future, there comes a time when the kingdom power of the Karpua kingdom is so much inferior to that of the two kingdoms, there can be a future where three paragraphs are used as shields to interfere with the direct royalty.

In exaggerated terms, it can also be said that Yoshijiro's proposal pre-picked the root causes of future attacks on the Karpua kingdom.

This Good Giro feat probably won't be on the perpetual list in the future, but that's why let's just remember it for ourselves.

"Hmm. You don't seem to have a problem. Well, let's start with me."

Aura vowed to do so from the inside as she imprinted her name under the sealed sentence with a candlebone brush dipped in an ink kettle.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

Safe, it was just after the evening that Sanjiro and Aura returned to the rear palace after finishing signing the covenant.

Sanjiro and Aura, who returned to the living room of the rear palace, undressed quickly and dressed in a relaxed room.

Instead of a maternity dress, Aura, wearing only a thin dress close to Negrije, quickly dropped herself on the couch so that she could hold her big stomach.

"Ugh..."

Big sighs leak from Aura's mouth, where she buried her body on the couch.

The boulder Aura, too, is tired today. Final adjustment of the Treaty text in the morning and signature in the afternoon.

Besides being blessed with his physique, Aura's health, which is also trained as a warrior, has something to draw a line with the average woman, but still, with her body of weight, it would have been a great burden to adjust and sign the covenants that would dictate the end of the country.

"Good day, Aura. Yes, tea."

Yoshijiro, who knows it, makes tea packs of tea and labors his wife, who has finished her big job.

Yourself and Aura, Yoshijiro, with tea for two, place a white magnetic teacup on the table in front of the couch, along with a small wooden pot with brown sugar and a wood dish with fruits like sliced lime.

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Aura quickly brings the brown sugar and fruit sliced into the tea that Yoshijiro put into her mouth. The sweetness of the sugar and the sourness of the fruit, added more often than not, heal the physical and mental fatigue.

On a daily basis, he is Sanjiro, who often sits next to Aura, but wants to meet and talk across the street today, pinch the table and sit back on the couch across the street.

"I can't fit in, and Gotagota about the Twin Kingdoms, is it good to think that this has attached a paragraph?

Aura put the teacup back on the table and nodded one to Sanjiro, who cut out the story so.

"Oh. At least the two kingdoms shouldn't be saying anything unless that happens to welcome the side chambers"

Makes Aura look a little reluctant.

"Oh, I guess not since I saw the intimate sentence, I thought. Is my side chamber problem still tickling?

Because of this, have you put up with the embarrassment and appealed to "I'm obsessed with Aura" at the night club, but would that abandonment effort have been wasted?

to Yoshijiro the Weakness, Aura shook her neck to the side,

"No, you're in Kokan at the moment, too. Sounds like you had a good activity. Whoever actively tries to sell the side room is lurking. Now we're fighting over who we're sending to this kid's nanny."

I stroked my big belly lovingly and said so.

"Then"

Aura shook her neck sideways again to Yoshijiro, who moves in and says something.

"No, indeed, if it were normal, between me and me, if I had also made three or four of my children, I would have cared for the rest. But as you know, there's only royalty in this country right now with me.

In a big country, this condition is extremely unusual. To give a specific example, the Shalova royal family of the two kingdoms has twenty-three, and the Kingdom of Zilbert has nineteen royalties "

In this world he is a user of royal equals lineage magic. To say that there are few royalties means that alone the power of the state is reduced. Whether Aura is in the mood or not, she fully agrees with the noblemen that the number of royalty needs to be increased.

"Uh, is that... working hard with me and Aura, or something?

"Are you going to kill me? How many children do you want me to have?

"In my world, once upon a time there was a woman called the Empress, who gave birth to fifteen or sixteen children with her husband, while partitioning the affairs of a great nation in times of war as the Grand Duchess of Women."

"... Are you sure that your son is human? Weren't they even mixed in ancient dragon blood?

Aura wrinkles between her eyebrows and tilts her neck just to say she heard a frigid story.

Even to Queen Aura, the anecdote of the Austrian Grand Duchess Maria Theresia sounded like a story that didn't feel real.

"No, that shouldn't happen. Perhaps a pure human being, what is it?

There is no way that any more detailed explanations can be given to Sanjiro, who stops at high school world history, such as knowledge of European history, and the story was interrupted there.

…………

…………

Seijiro, wondering if there was any good topic, reminds me of the ring in his trouser pocket.

"Oh, yeah. Hey, Aura. Can you give me your left hand?

Although it was an obvious topic, Aura, who knows that Yoshijiro only hates this side room issue, dares to ride off that poor topic.

"Mm-hmm? Well, then give me your ring first. Anyway, I want to do 'that' again"

Yes, fluttering and laughing, Aura puts her right hand flat up.

"Yeah, okay"

Yoshijiro puts his wedding ring on Aura's right hand flat, stands up from the opposite couch and walks over to Aura.

"Oh, Aura can stay put"

Sunjiro, who controlled Aura with his hand, who also tried to stand, and knelt in front of Aura, who sat down on the couch, grabs Aura's left hand and tries to fill that pharmacopoeia with a ring.

"I can't do that there. My fingers are swollen now. Little finger, please."

"Oh, yeah, I'm sorry"

Aura's hand during pregnancy is swollen overall and thicker than usual. The truth is that the ring that should be perfect for the left pharmacopoeia is not going to fit in any way now.

I don't dress up a bit, but Aura's whisper reaches Sanjiro's ear, where she knocked her body out in front of her to fill her little finger with a wedding ring.

"What, you won't say anything to me? The words you said to me that night. I was hoping I could hear that."

In the words, Yoshijiro stopped moving.

That night, that was the night that Yoshijiro and Aura started and lay their bodies on top of each other. After finishing the wedding by day and the first night by night, in the bedroom, Yoshijiro gave Aura this ring.

Originally, spin from your own mouth the 'word of oath' that a priest is supposed to ask at a wedding.

"Zenzilow......?

"... Oh, no more"

Kuck grips his left hand and realizes this is the only way to compromise on his wife's attitude that prevents him from filling the ring, Yoshijiro says in his utmost stern voice after taking a big, deep breath and temporarily spitting out his shame.

"Love you when you are healthy, when you are sick, when you are joyful, when you are sad, when you are rich, when you are poor, love you, honor you, comfort you, help you, and pledge to do your sincere heart for as long as this life holds, and as a testament to that, I give you this ring"

…………

Aura remains silent, lowering her mouth and opening her left hand.

Aura's pinky finger is filled with a trio of diamonds decorated with a thick yellow gold ring.

Then Aura says, in a small voice.

Zenzilow, please stand up.

"Huh?"

"Stand me up."

"Ugh, yeah."

Kenjiro, who was kneeling in front of the couch and looking up at Aura, stood up on the spot, not sure.

Now Aura will be in a position to look up to Sanjiro.

Aura returns the words of her vows as she softly takes her husband's left hand, which stands before her.

"I pledge to love you, to honor you, to comfort you, to help you, and to do my best for as long as this life holds, to give you this ring as a testament, when you are healthy, when you are sick, when you are joyful, when you are sad, when you are rich, when you are poor"

With that said, fill Yoshijiro's left pharmacopoeia finger with the ring and a pair of rings that are stuck in his pinky finger.

"Aura......"

Yoshijiro looking down. Aura looking up.

On the first night, when I got this ring, Aura didn't return the words of her vows. Sanjiro was surprised by the habit of knowing at first and seemed to think he couldn't give it back, but the facts are different. I didn't give it back, I didn't give it back.

I know it's just a formality, like words, but I still didn't allow my position as a queen to "give my heart as long as I have this life" to one man.

I was willing to respond in good faith. I was willing to cultivate love. I also intended to accept my husband's wishes whenever possible. But the priority was only, after the country, after the royal family.

In times of need, when the presence of Good Jiro is taken into the kingdom and determined to be negative, it will be truncated. It was supposed to be a marriage with that readiness. But...

(You can't do this anymore. At least I can't trump this guy as long as Zenzilow stays the Zenzilow he is now)

Aura understands her mind that way. Regardless, I can be sure that if Yoshijiro is left in position and power, and as if he had a different personality, he won't be able to make a "cold right decision" unless he does.

Aura, who filled Sunjiro's pharmacopoeia with a ring, gently raises her hands up so as to welcome her husband, who stands in front.

Enlightened by his intentions, Yoshijiro gently defeats his body so that it is covered from above by his wife sitting on the couch.

"… n"

"... n"

Quiet overlap, two lips.

The two embraces lasted a little too long to call it vow dictation.
