Eleven holy buds were sloppily arranged in the halls within the Second Temple. "Something" was gathered so that they could deal with it immediately.
Although there is always a cleric on the lookout, so far there is no candidate for anything weird blooming, and they are all just normal cute flowers.
And in the sprouts of both the contents and the degree of growth, the flowers had not yet blossomed only in the sprouts of Liz, which sadly did not fly and were of substandard size.
I don't even see a stump.
(What to do)
Only the green leaves mossy and lush, holy - glittering with trees, Liz was in a hurry.
If it stays like this, it will come off the Virgin Candidate. "Be sure to be the Virgin," he said. I can't face Claire, a descendant of the Howard family. And...
And?
From behind Liz, who is trying hard to clear up Moya Moya in her heart, I heard conversations between Duke's Lady Grace and her hissing daughter Natalie.
"That's Master Grace! Such beautiful deep red flowers cannot be blossomed by any other candidate!
"Thank you, Natalie. Your flowers are simple and so adorable."
"No! It's an honor!
Are you happy that Grace is in a good mood, Natalie dyeing her cheeks bright red and shouting.
Grace was also the slower to wear flowers, but now the tiny but luxurious bowl had a stunning bloom of graceful large circles of deep red flowers.
(Nice)
Regret and flattery mix in. Liz bit her lips off at the impatience that engulfed her.
"That, what is it!?
At the end of Natalie's astonished voice were small, poor flowers with a number of fine petals overlapping like frills. It belongs to the daughter of a court magician.
Liz couldn't help but notice that the flower was black.
"Wow. I've never seen black flowers before!
"Right. But, well, the clergyman said that the flowers that he deserved would bloom."
Grace, nodding with a face like she found out, stares at the daughter of the magician of the court of the day from a distance.
"It's not Liz! - Lie! Liz flowers, haven't they blossomed yet!?
Even though he was called out by Natalie, who even rounded his eyes further. Loud high voices contain pure surprise and heartfelt worrying sounds.
Liz also noticed the sound, but at the same time Grace seemed to notice. Though I frowned uncomfortably for a moment, my usual smile immediately appeared.
"I don't like it, Natalie. Would you be rude to Liz if you put it that way?
"Huh? No, I don't mean -!"
"I'm surprised, too. Liz's buds are huge out of the group, so it's exactly what I thought the flowers would bloom at the beginning. But the result is still the result. As the clergyman said," The flowers that are worthy of him will bloom. "
A quiet tone but a sliced black eye really shines with pleasure.
I couldn't help but be sincerely happy that Liz's flowers wouldn't bloom, it was such a glow.
……
Liz squeezed her hands hard as she nodded. Regret comes up from the bottom of my heart.
Of course I regret being fooled, but most of all, it's not.
(I don't like it)
I don't want to end up like this.
I don't want to come off the Virgin Candidate...
That was a strong thought that came from the depths of my heart, to my surprise as well.
- Not yet.
Liz raised her face while holding both hands. Look straight back at Grace with all your strength in both eyes.
"Not yet, you won't know. Not yet, I won't give up. I'm here to be the next Virgin."
A definite will floats on Liz's clear white cheeks.
Red eyes emitted a strong light along with the height of his heart.
Grace breathed like a barometric pressure.
Liz when she was high was like there was a god, and even Grace, whose face catches on to repentance, couldn't help but look away for a moment, like that.
At that time
"Hey! Hey, look at that!
and sounded like Natalie screaming.
Liz's holy tree, at the end of its branches, suddenly had a big hard stump on it. The stump gets softer and softer and swooshes bigger.
Even though there can't be enough nasty growth to be confirmed with your eyes so quickly, it will explode in front of Liz's, Grace's, as if it were magic.
"Wow......!
The soft, fuzzy stump slowly opens.
It was a white petal. More white than Liz's skin, more than her hair.
It's a fantastic sight to have five petals open in unison, some of them in the palm of your hand, as if they're not from the world.
Everyone is too surprised to speak. Grace is just staring at Liz's flowers, too.
It smelled slightly sweet.
Rin and blossoming holy flowers were pure white flowers that did not send any other color, did not stain any color.
"Beautiful..."
Natalie, her hissing daughter, staring breathlessly, gave me a sighing voice.
You probably don't realize Natalie herself spoke up, it was a heartfelt crush.
Next to it, Grace was scorching Liz's flowers with a frightened face. Where did you go to make room earlier, even blue?
"Congratulations. You've finally blossomed," said the priest Lloyd.
"Mr. Lloyd, how long have you been here?
"Since before."
After answering the surprise Liz, Lloyd laughed small toward the Duke's Lady Grace.
"Certainly 'the flowers that are worthy of that person will bloom'. You were right."
For a moment, Grace flicked herself out of the hall with a strong light in her eyes that she wanted to kill him if she could kill him with her gaze.
Hiccup daughter Natalie rushes after him.
Lloyd laughed at Liz.
"Maybe it was a flower that confirmed my determination to be a Virgin."
"I see. - Is that flower worthy of me?
"Yeah. I think so."
In unexpected honest words, no, I expect there's something.
"Because that way of blooming would be just fine. You mean you can't predict, you mean you're different from normal, you mean you're twisted?
(Turns out)
Lloyd laughed a little again at Liz for blushing.
"Good for you. Beautiful flowers."
As the holy tree responded, the blooming flowers, the lush leaves, even though there was no wind, swayed sawasawa.
Liz was taking a post-meal walk. Three meals, far more luxurious than meals in the village, are all-you-can-eat for the Virgin candidates, so Liz of Poverty sticks to eating too much.
(That?)
I found Grace walking fast here from the first tower gate.
I know they don't like it, so I hide by the tower. They didn't seem to notice, and Grace went back to the Second Temple without looking.
Instead, the person Grace was talking to - his father, Duke Aigner, found him. The temple under selection is off-limits to anyone but those involved, so even though it is the entrance to the family, it can only enter this first tower gate.
"Oh, you're Liz Stefan."
How do you know his name? The Duke gave Liz a gentle grin on his mouth, which was very similar to Grace's, frowning at the blush.
"I heard His Highness Keefa likes you, is it true? If it's true, I'm really proud of you."
"Come on, I don't know"
Without being timid, but without being humbled, the Duke looked faintly at Liz, who answered calmly. He turns his grin off like it wasn't what he thought, and turns his gaze to explore changing the way he attacked him.
But Liz is not the place to be.
(I wonder. This unpleasant feeling...)
I don't know for sure. No matter how much you try to look at it, it's blurry like a thin piece of skin is stretched out, and you can't grab it.
Yet my skin tingles. My chest squirts.
What is this feeling? Liz even stared at the Duke as he grabbed at the source of the discomfort that was coming in.
