Senpensekai no Madoushoshi

"What, yeah, yeah, yeah!?

I was screaming, forgetting that this was the place to look.

"Wow, I... with Lady Eichel? Kay, kay, married!?

No, 'cause you do, don't you? You know, I've been too surprised that I've become a nobleman or that Sorletta's become a territory, but marriage, marriage, right?

Besides, Prince Achel with a beautiful face in front of this... not the princess!

Well, it doesn't have to be me.

"Countess McCullis. No matter how much you do, you have no right to decide on matters that greatly determine the fate of the country."

"Ha ha, how, how dare you!! Ah Takashi just made an old suggestion, I hope so - well wow!!

"Then it will be enough. Fall back."

"Ha! Excuse me. - Shima, wow! Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho!!

Lady McCullis finally turned to me for an oversized wink before spreading a fan with flashy decorations and leaving between glances.

I always thought you were a really free man.

"... Phew, boy. My wife always burns my hands. That's because you don't hold the reins. Minister."

"Wow, that role overlaps with mine."

Can't get out of the surprise. I've been hearing Lord Oliva and the minister have been interacting.

"I'm sorry, Iris. Surprise me."

Then Lady Eichel peered into my face with a bitter laugh.

"Yes, what... oh, I'm surprised, but you must be joking, and nothing I..."

"... yeah, if it was a joke I'd be glad"

"... to?

Master Achel tried to care for me and let me sit in the chair. Her gaze moves from Twi and me around.

When I followed it with interest, there were a lot of nobles there, watching me and Master Eichel. Their faces didn't feel like they were laughing at the joke.

Seriously, and intentionally, you're thinking about when it happened... it looked like that look.

After the Argument Award, we were immediately called to a luncheon with the King.

As I relaxed in my room dressed from a dress to a regular outfit, the maid Noelia came and guided us to the dining room where it would be the venue.

Climbing through a number of doors, climbing the stairs, descending and arriving in that way was a vibrant dining room dedicated to the royal family that had taken several trips.

It's also a very luxurious place where we always use it, but this place has a different dimension.

The floor is white marble. The polished sandalwood long table is decorated there with gold, giving it a sense of heaviness and elegance.

When we get to the table, the maid usually brings us a meal, but she didn't today.

"I'm not listening to you, Oliva!!

Rizzelaich, who came after us, opened the door or no, because he barked so at Master Oliva, who was already there.

"Please calm down, Mrs Lynn. It's not just you, it's me."

"Stuffed..."

Mr. Noelia, who was nearby, recommended to Ritzereich the seat next to mine that was vacant.

By the way, it is Master Oliva and Master Eichel who are on this occasion right now. And us and Mr. Noelia. And then there's Master Mariarone, across the street, who can be given away as archbishop of this country. She usually waves at my tea eyes when she sees my face, but today it just made me laugh a little bit with a face that doesn't float.

"Please sit down first, Master Lin Lin"

Ritzereich glanced at her as Lady Eichel stacked over her and recommended her to sit down.

I often read the word poking angry hair heaven in a book, but that's exactly what she is now.

The usual calm she went where and opened her mouth trying to bite Master Eichel.

"Ritzereich"

"Colour..."

So I called her to make sure it didn't happen. When I pounded the seat of the empty chair, she closed her mouth, which was about to open.

"Come here"

She noticed my presence for the first time at that time, and she came here after a roundabout, looking like a bum.

"Hey, what... your lords are here too..."

"Yeah. Invite me to the king. He said he'd feed me something delicious. Looking forward to it."

"Smooth. Lord, do you have a good understanding of the situation you put yourself in?

"I guess it's also a place for you to explain that. Sit down. We can't talk."

"Colour...... Oh yeah...... Sorry, Saluena..."

It pinches an empty seat, and Saluena sits on the other side of it. That was how she was treated to drinking white wine with Sacramento, an aperitif, and Ritzereich settled that little body into a tall chair.

By the way, Master Oliva in the upper seat as a line. Continue with Saluena, Ritzereich, me, your sister, Carol and Toslin in the right seat. In the seats on the left are Lady Eichel and Lady Marie.

Speaking of Laplice, he's already started eating fruit appetizers served on plates in the middle of the table. I'd like you to read the air about now, but I already know it's useless to say that to her. So no one pays attention.

"... Now, what everyone on this occasion thinks' Why is this happening '? To explain it, the heroes gave me a lift."

Master Oliva blinds Master Eichel. Then she nodded and breathed heavily.

"As I explain, I will now reveal one secret to you. But I hope there's absolutely no need to say anything else."

"Yes..."

A secret? It must be a secret. Oh, hey. Actually, you mean a princess, not a prince? But you already know that for all of us, don't you?

Actually, I'm a woman.

……

Oh, I knew it was it. Uh, what do we do? Should I be surprised in this case? I ask how everyone reacts, but with the exception of Saluena, she has the same puzzling look as me.

You took that silence as a surprise, and Master Eichel looked sorry.

"I can't help but be surprised. It's incredible to be told you're a woman while you're dressed like this."

Lady Achel said so, pointing to the shirt and breech she was now calling for.

No, no, no, no. Even if you're dressed like that, you're not overwhelmed with the girly look that overflows from you, are you?

"I'm sorry I've been fooling you. But I hid it for a reason."

Without realizing such a penetration into our minds, Lady Achel will continue to talk.

"This country, to which the hero Lano Route was pleased, has been inherited by men for generations. So routinely, inevitably, the only person who inherited the blood of the present king... had to be a man."

"If you expose yourself as a woman, there will appear to be a few signs of rebellion against the crown of Eichelle. In some cases, those who claim the right of inheritance may appear from among the dukes who have royalty to their ancestors. Then the country will be divided into two parts."

When I heard that story about Ritzereich, I was remembering your sister. My sister, who is sitting next to me, is a twin, and she joined the convent for fear that the house would be bisected in a inheritance dispute. That's the bigger story on the scale, this one.

"Mrs. McCullis is probably suspicious of Eichel's gender. I suppose that's why you're bringing up the story of your marriage to Lord Calvafon and asking for our reaction."

"That's how, when you get the certainty that I'm a woman... you're willing to dispute your succession to the throne."

"Oh, you look belly black, he"

Laplice invited Mr. Noelia to request a fruit replacement. Mr. Noelia then left the room quietly and immediately brought a replacement plate.

"So I'm asking Eichel to be a man. As long as it seems painful for my daughter to be paying for my fuzziness. One more thing between me and my wife, I wish I had a boy..."

... Speaking of which, since I came to this country, I have had several opportunities to talk to the King in this way, but I have never spoken to the Lady. I mean, I've never even met you.

Rumor has it that you fell ill when you gave birth to Lady Eichel and have been quiet somewhere since then...

(... that, speaking of...)

I felt a little uncomfortable then. That's because next to Master Oliva, Mr. Noelia refrained from chocolate.

I am now in the midst of talking about the unlimited survival of the country, regarding the birth of Lady Eichel. There, I wonder why the maid, Noelia, is present. Does that mean it's okay for Mr. Noelia to ask me?

That's what my thoughts were on my face, Master Achel looked at me and said 'Ah'.

"Noarea is fine. Because she's a person on this side. So naturally, you know I'm a woman. I mean, it's her. Just before the Argument Award, Mrs. McCullis told me that she might be thinking of something that wasn't good."

"Oh, yeah, right"

"But in the end I couldn't stop her... I'm sorry, Noelia. You told me because of you..."

"No, it was uncertain for how many minutes, so I wondered how much it couldn't be stopped on that spot. So far, there are half a dozen possibilities that the Duchess of McCullis is attempting a plan."

"She's got a lot of information-gathering work to do besides her maids. It is also greatly due to her devotion that I can continue to be king in this way"

"It's a waste of time."

Mr. Noelia said that quietly and bowed her head. I also thought when I first met you, you're a faceless person.

"So that's it. I know the prince was a princess, but is that such a fuss?

Did you change and get full for now, or Laplice stomachs on the table?

"Woman to woman, but should we get married?"

"... Laplice!?

"I don't know what you're talking about. Laplice!!

Then Master Eichel blinked, and Ritzereich stood up from Gatan and his chair... trying not to reach his feet, slamming the table with a bang.

"... Mr. Laplice. Things are a big part of the end of the country. Be careful what you say."

And that's what my sister, who hadn't uttered a word until then, said.

Rattling, Toslin and Carroll, sitting on the other side of it, distance themselves from each chair.

"Oh, excuse me, Mr. Noelia. Do you mind if I move to the other side because some chair is annoying?

"Ah, neither Atashi nor Atashi. Oh, the plate moves itself, so it's okay"

... not only took a plate and cutlery and evacuated to the other side, next to Marie. Bad, I want to move that way too.

"No, but wow..."

(Hey, hey, stop it, Laplice)

I appeal to Laplice like that with my eyes. Because you can already tell by the reaction of the Toslins, right?

(Please, don't inspire your sister now. Yikes!!

My sister is like a razor that I can hang up if I touch her, and honestly, I'm afraid to stay by her side.

But no one goes out to the right of Laplice regarding the illegibility of the air.

"You're not really getting married, are you? It's an engagement. Shouldn't we just take the form of promises for now and eventually, uh-huh?

She also didn't realize she was in rather a needle state, and said so.

"I know exactly what Mr. Laplice is trying to say."

"Mm-hmm. Okay, that's why we're done here. I ate carnivores next..."

But that's not how it works.

"Why not?"

"Normal aristocrats do, but even more so if they were royalty, they couldn't do things that weren't so easy. So much so that promising to marry means something."

I don't know much about the aristocratic world, but somehow I felt like I knew what your sister was saying. Marriage of nobility is not only a bond between individuals, but also between houses and all those involved there. So you can't do anything that wasn't an individual decision more than once decided.

"But oh, it's about that woman. You know, maybe that's really the way things are going, right? I don't know much about you guys."

I thought your sister was right, but so was this Laplice word, and I felt right again.

Then he opens his mouth while Toslin, who had refrained from speaking until then, seems uncomfortable.

"Yeah, the boulder wouldn't have the right to dictate the prince's marriages to that countess, but surely the moves around trying to do so would be bigger than being on good terms. If you don't, you should deny it for the earliest possible reason."

"Is that what it is?

"That's what it is. It's the same in every country. I don't know what a noble world is."

On Carol's mouth, Toslin sighed as she stuck her own spoon with fruit on it. So Master Marie opens her mouth towards Toslin, who came next door.

"Hehe, the boulder is the Viscount Lady of La Folia, the Holy Forest Country. In that year, you've already bitten it both sour and sweet."

"Yeah, well... there's a lot going on over there."

"Yes, you are. Really, there's a lot going on. Everywhere, in every country."

Master Marie looked up at the ceiling and was whining about two or three words or something. But after a few moments, he smiled and turned to me and said:

"For example…. Hey, Iris?

Master Marie put her elbows on the table and put her jaw on top of her fingers together. I respond with amazement at what they say in the course of this story.

"Yes? What is it?

"Churchwise, it would be more convenient for Eilees and Master Eichel to marry me like this. So, Iris, could you really marry Lady Eichelle?

"What!? Huh!?

"... or something?

"... ah... oh, analogy... is it? You mean a joke, right? Right now..."

When I heard that I was afraid, Lady Marie shook her neck sideways, though Nico remained in her face.

"No, unfortunately I'm not kidding. Being Archbishop, I sincerely hope that you and Lady Achel will marry me if I can."

……

"So I'll say it again. Will you marry me?

I set a new record on this day that twice my head would turn white.

"... Yep, yep, yep, yep!?

No more, I'm too surprised and my throat hurts. And......

"... Dear Marie Arone"

"... ask on top of each other, is that what you're seriously saying?

A low, roaring voice of your sister and Ritzereich, rising from both neighbors.

It's starting to hurt my stomach.
