Tensei Shoujo no Rirekisho

Royal Palace Living Edition ⑥ Long time no school

"Hey, how's your engagement life?

That's what Miss Salome asked me when she said she was intrigued.

Today, Miss Salome and Miss Caterina came to visit us at the castle after all the troublesome procedures.

The place is the courtyard in the castle. Roses are blooming now, and the weather is nice and a great day to have a tea party.

It's been a long time since I've had my usual tea party with a girl member because we have Charles together.

Though, of course, escorts, including Master Cain, are on your side, and if you look a little further away, it's not just a nostalgic reunion for your alumni because they refrain from other royal ladies.

But Elaine, a royal palace woman and manners teacher who always sticks to me hard about manners, is not around, so I can just act a little easygoing.

"Whatever you say... it's normal. It's just inconvenient that since you crossed over here, you can barely get out of the castle. Besides, I can't talk to Joshua about the Chamber of Commerce because I can't get a meeting with a man outside."

Nevertheless, I remembered Joshua, who took over as head of the King's Capital headquarters of the Ruby Forn Chamber of Commerce on a steep pitch.

Without saying anything weak, he went with the takeover almost without sleeping. I did something bad to Mr. Joshua with a really sudden story.

"An inconvenience... as usual, Mr. Lew"

and Miss Salome said so with her eyes turned to me like she saw something unfortunate.

Why do you look at me like that?

If you think so and you're pompous,

"That's not what we want to hear. How is it with His Highness, Henry?"

And Miss Caterina supplemented me with a frightened look.

"Huh? With His Highness Henry...? Whatever you say, I rarely see His Highness."

In my reply, Charles just nodded as Miss Salome and Miss Caterina were showing a little surprise.

"It is. Your Highness Henry, after Mr. Lew moved his residence here, he never came to the star palace."

and I snort too when I hear the disgruntled Charles.

"I haven't seen you at all. I met her before this in a way that was part of my official duties, and I went to welfare facilities in Wangdu and then to the ranch. That's about it."

With that said, I remember a terrible date the other day.

It breaks the lady's hair, which is so fashionable, and to the end of the day, pig shit......!

...... come on!

Even if I remember now, I regret it. It was a lifetime of unconsciousness.

I didn't think a little bit of happiness when I was younger was a hit on Gesley, but I can't believe I'm paying that back so childish now...!

The next time I let Gesley say Gesung, I vowed to my heart to cleverly trap him so that I could never be presumed to have done it.

"Well, do you? Rumor has it that Mr. Lew and His Royal Highness Henry were going out in a very friendly manner, so I thought we'd be together from time to time."

"Yes, yes. I heard you and I were whispering each other intimately when we went to the ranch."

That's what Miss Caterina and Miss Salome said with a little surprise.

Is it such a rumor in Wang Du?

Actually, there's no whispering to each other. Mostly Gesley is just whispering something geezy in my ear......

"Well, it may have seemed that way... but you really have very little contact. More than that, what about the Chamber of Commerce?

Gesley's topic wasn't much of an interest. Waving about the Chamber of Commerce I was concerned about, Miss Salome and Miss Caterina laughed a little like they were frightened and said, "Mr. Lew is really the same."

No, 'cause there's nothing more exciting about Gessley than that.

"If you're from the Chamber of Commerce, I knew it would be tough without Mr. Lew. Especially Mr. Joshua."

Miss Salome nodded, too, when Miss Caterina said so.

"Right. Besides, Mr. Lew's becoming a fiancée has raised the profile of the Ruby Forn Chamber of Commerce even further, and the production of the sale can't be chased away. Especially alcohol. It was originally a celebration or something, so the Wang Du people are celebrating your engagement with His Royal Highness Henry and celebrating it every night."

"Especially if the liquor bottle doesn't make it or not. The liquor itself, thanks to Mr. Charlotte, can afford it, but I still can't keep up with the production of the stuff."

And Miss Caterina, who seems to be mainly on the production line for liquor bottles, looked sluggish.

Even though Charles attends the Chamber of Commerce once a week, isn't it too much of Charles' rotting spirit magic that still doesn't chase you through your stuff relationship?

Nevertheless, I thought I had solved the problem of not being able to make bottles...

"Um, how about Alan?

If Alan were here, it would have been like we could have afforded more of that kind of stuff relationship......

Although Alan can't be cut off by the Chamber of Commerce because he remains in the King's Capital as a help to his grandfather, Mr. Albert, it should still have been completely different if Alan was capable of helping just a little, and in fact Alan was here to help me until my engagement was decided.

My question made Katerina give way and Miss Salome an indescribable subtle face.

And Miss Salome opens her mouth like I can't tell you.

"Master Alan, of course, is not helping me. But you're not in the mood yet..."

"What, did you make it worse even in your health?

"Well, that's close to it."

"So, are you okay? Something wrong with you...?

"Yeah, I'm fine. It's not like I'm sick. But, you know, I'm just not feeling well. So one of these days time, time will fix it, should. I guess."

And although Miss Salome will tell you, if you rest slowly, it feels like a cure?

And Mr. Ritz came to see how it went.

I blinked at Miss Caterina's words that

Yep!? Ritz back in the realm is enough for you to come all the way back!?

I'm not well, time will fix it, but Ritz, the more serious you come all the way back, that means, no way, Alan, maybe...

"Maybe... is it my fault?

When I said that small, the Caterina ladies looked hazy.

And look at me with confused eyes.

"No way, Mr. Lew, you noticed Mr. Alan...?

"Embarrassing story, I didn't realize until you all told me about Alan today. But..."

That's what I said and I lay my eyes down.

This reaction from everyone...... after all, it's my fault.

I looked back and turned to Master Cain, who was my escort.

"Did you know, Master Cain? That, about Alan..."

When I asked him that, Master Cain, who looked like he was angry, nodded sorry.

"Right... But this is because Alan has to get over himself."

"That's not true......! If I could have noticed Alan a little sooner...!

I gave you a good rest!

When I was at the Chamber of Commerce, Alan, it seemed like he was using magic for the Chamber of Commerce quite lightly, and Alan asked me if I had anything else to do, so I can't believe I did, there's a place where I relied so much on him while I was at the Chamber of Commerce...!

I can't believe you were shredding yourself to the point of falling overworked!

Because of me, Alan...!

"Even if I realized it, it couldn't be helped for you to be His Highness Henry's fiancé. I can't help it."

And Miss Caterina tells me, but that's not true.

You have nothing to do with Alan's overwork and His Highness Gesley......

Everyone cares and tries to follow things, but that kindness hurts my chest the other way.

"If I could at least visit you..."

But I'm not free to go outside anymore. There will be no permission to go out for Alan's sympathy.

I can't believe I haven't felt so deprived since I got here, but I can't believe I've felt so deprived coming here.

"No, I don't think it's a good idea for Mr. Lew to show his face directly. I'm afraid I can only watch you now."

Oh no......!? You're so sick you don't even want to see my face, Alan!? So much!?

I'll make the best bottle of liquor!

And he said with a cheerful smile, Alan's figure came to his brain.

I can't believe that Alan was so sick of his job that he didn't even want to see my face...

My idiot.

"How could you not know about me, Alan?"

"Right..."

Friends nodded mysteriously at my words.

"I should have seen it right for you. I've been working so hard, yeah, I've been working too hard, and I should have noticed you."

"Yeah, right."

"Alan wants to be a wizard dedicated to a fine chamber of commerce, and he pushes off the opposite of your family... so he can't..."

"Yeah......?

"I can't believe Alan used too much magic until he got sick."

……

To what I just said, hey, everyone was snorting at me, and suddenly I was silent.

I was just wondering what was wrong, "Hey, Mr. Liu," Miss Salome's sharp voice broke in.

"I don't know, Mr. Lew, but I think the reason Alan isn't feeling well is because he's overusing magic...?

"Oh, no? You made him work too much, didn't you? There's a lot of work I've shaken... I relied too much on you before I crossed the castle."

And when I'm answering, it's like they kind of turned a gaze at me from the two of us.

Oh, what that gaze, what do you mean?

Miss Caterina, I can't do this. I feel like I'm shaking my neck from left to right.

"If you're so blunt, you're just too pitiful for Alan."

says Miss Caterina. It's a little blameworthy.

What do you think I mean, Miss Salome put her hand on Miss Katerina's shoulder like that.

"Well, I just realized that Mr. Lew is already his fiancée. Maybe this is it."

Miss Salome said so, and Charles nodded strangely, too.

"Right."

"Uh, I haven't been able to swallow that much, does that mean Alan isn't overworked?

"That's the thing. Don't worry too much about Mr. Lew, because it's an alley, but you don't think it's even something Mr. Lew would worry about... it's really okay, maybe"

Really? Why do you have a little 'maybe' or something? I'm curious about the ambiguity...

But somehow this topic ended here, and Miss Salome has created an atmosphere like this, so I keep my mouth shut.

Alan......

If I were your girlfriend, I could see you this way at the castle, but I don't see Alan or Ritz much anymore.

I've been trying not to think too deeply, but it's harder than I thought.

Especially Alan, who has been around for a long time for some reason...

You noticed it got a little snug and moody, and Charles softly lay his hands on my hand as I laid it on my lap.

"Master Liu, cheer up. I know you all have a lot to think about Master Liu's engagement, but I was very happy to hear about your engagement with His Highness. Slow down. His Highness Henry is talking about being grabbed by the throne. In that case, Master Liu is the queen. I've always wanted to see Liu become queen and rule my country, and I dreamed of helping next to Liu."

When Charles says that, hehe laughs.

To go with it, Miss Caterina let down her face, too.

"I still can't imagine Mr. Lew being the queen on the boulder, but, yeah. There are things about Gwennasis territory, and although there are a lot of things I think about the country, I don't think it's a bad idea to think Mr. Lew is here right now. I'm sure Mr. Lew will be upset by the lack of clapping to make it a good country."

I was just a little surprised that Miss Caterina had changed and said that.

"No, no, I'm not going to do anything scratchy like that. Sure, although I have a desire to do something about the Gwennasis territory because I have something to worry about. I think it's going to be easy."

I'm not going to do anything that big.

Or I have a watch, and some people don't think well of me, and it's going to be difficult.

However, in the meantime, I wish I could make a law based on Uyoli following the national policy I issued the other day, or participate in a council that decides what matters to the country...

"Heh heh, there's nothing less trustworthy than Mr. Lew's. I'm sure he's not going to do anything, and he's about to come out with a new national policy."

And Miss Salome says, so I rush to open my mouth.

"I do think about national policies and all that, but be it, national policies aren't going to give out anything that doesn't even have the kind of thump to spin the country around!? It's a safer and more solid one like this!

When I said that, Miss Salome laughed strangely.

"Look, it's not a decision to come up with a new national policy after all"

"It's because I'm in the castle."

And when I answer, everyone laughs that it sounds like Mr. Lew.

What do you mean, you look like Mr. Lew?

Though I feel like everyone's telling me all about it today, but it kind of reminded me of my childhood in an atmosphere of nostalgia. I miss you so much, even though it was a while ago.

I laughed like this every day and it was fun.

And there will always be Alan there...

I don't know what it is. I miss him extra when I don't think I'll see him much anymore.

Alan, I wonder what you're doing by now. He doesn't seem sick, but he doesn't seem to be well...

Alan......

I looked back.

Turning around, it's always too much to say that Alan was there... but Alan was always on my side as horrible as it really was.

But I knew I wasn't here right now.

Only a beautiful rose garden was in my eyes, and that was asexually sad.
