The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)

The Chancellor of the Kingdom of Larchia, Rudolph, had taken King Larchia's capital with his men, Flora Rotrigen, on foot.

"My lord."

"Yeah?"

"We're almost done with today's schedule. All we have to do is return to the royal castle..."

What would you do without saying? Rudolph walks out with a sighing smile on Flora's words asking. From the end of the war, one of Rudolph's behavioral patterns followed Flora's back without questioning her.

You can go home, Flora.

The Kingdom of Larchia, which became a 'victorious nation', but still remained to be handled after the war. Naturally, 'Hi, I signed a treaty. Then please return to your normal life tomorrow!' There's no way this is going to happen. Fortunately, it was an invasion war, and the damage to the national territory itself is small. Still, the combination of economic and damage conditions that had stopped is imperative. Meetings with representatives of major chambers of commerce, unions and other organisations continued day after night.

"Put your lord who works more vigorously than anyone else, why should I alone be greedy with inebriation at home? Please love yourself."

"If you're gonna say that, so are you, Flora. 'Cause I can't take your daughters around my age and before my dowry."

"Will your wife be mad at you?

"You got that, too."

To Rudolph, who says so and laughs and shows it, Flora returns a grin.

"Am I in the mood to 'contend' with my wife?

"... Didn't I just tell you to love yourself? I die hard."

"You just have to eat me up. If you're in your position, it wouldn't be strange to be in one of the side rooms, would it?

"I'm not willing to give a boulder a wife younger than my son."

"It's bad that you're attractive, my lord."

That's what I say, little devilish grin, Flora. Some of the youngest daughters of the Count Rotrigen family are so adorable that they don't look twenty years old, and for a daughter of nobility she is rarely a respectable daughter who can do anything by herself. The only drawback - even if it comes to drawbacks - is that a man's preference is' too tannic 'for his age.

"... reasonably good. Let's go then."

"Already! That way you will be deluded at all times!

Clasp your shoulders and resume the steps you had stopped. Cute and puffy inflated cheeks, still Flora follows Rudolph. Rudolph and Flora, who made their way through the boulevard of the King's capital of Larchia and often before the building in question, were noticed watering the flower bed at the front door.

"Well, my lord! And Master Flora. Did you still want it today?

A woman with gray hair and still smiling softly and tastefully. Rudolph's cheeks also loosen on that look like a Mercy Mother.

"I'm sorry, Dean. I was wondering if I could get some tea today, so I stuck around and interrupted."

"Really? So long, my lord, Master Flora. Please come inside."

Wiping her hands with an apron, the woman called Dean, who pushes the door open, urges them to 'go ahead' and step inside the room. Dean serves hot tea to two people who sit in a chair in a clean, tidy room, even if it's not luxurious. It fills a room that doesn't have a big smell. Raise the cup of tea to enjoy the aroma two or three times. Then slowly I took a longer breath with my mouth on the tea.

"What do you say?

"You're a boulder. Delicious."

"Thank you"

Dean smiles slightly at elegance. Rudolph slowly bowed his head after smiling similarly at the appearance.

"... My apologies, Dean"

"... please raise your head. But... then."

"I wasn't strong enough"

Even though we settled relatively early, it's a 'war'. People are bound to die more than it is war. Especially in this area, almost in the heart of King Larchia's capital, many adults took part in the war - and were at the forefront. I guess we also felt guilty that if we wanted to eat the plan, maybe it was ourselves who killed Jessica, who so wished. They fought bravely. They scattered many lives in the Danieli offensive.

"... Your Eminence, don't worry"

That's fine with the adults. As Ayano said, there are also thoughts of 'being rewarded by death'.

But what about the children left?

"But... then we'll run this orphanage."

The capacity of this orphanage, loved by Jessica, increased at once. The children of the adults who were scattered in the war - not only because they housed the so-called 'war orphans' at once. Regardless, there is one reason for this. Hard as an 'orphanage' because there are more people, or hako, there are limits, and there are limits to the instructors, or software, who sometimes scold the orphans, sometimes praise them, and lead them warmly and gently. Especially now, right after the war, they're all full of their lives. It's lame to have a loved one, a father, a man who lost his brother. Though the Lalchian people are kind, it is difficult to be kind to others without having some 'leeway' to themselves.

"... I wanted to leave this orphanage"

Apart from that problem, there was purely no 'money' either. The increase in the number of people accommodated does not increase their income. The good intentions and the management of the orphanage, which consisted of donations from the royal family, went poor at once.

Rudolph said.

That the orphanage is the place to train people in charge of the forthcoming Kingdom of Larchia.

That the orphanage is an important place that Jessica loved and mercied.

That by eliminating the orphanage, many orphans could become street dwellers and the security of King Larchia's capital could deteriorate.

Any means were used to survive. Threaten at times, earned at times, forgiven at times, and incited at times to preach, preach, and continue preaching each stakeholder.

"... my political power was not enough"

Rudolph lost. The expression "lost" may not be accurate, but Rudolph could not attach financial aid to the orphanage anyway.

"I understand, my lord. The people of Larchia, they all suffer. We're not going to be the only ones who will be treated favourably."

Dean gently touches Rudolph, who drops his shoulder. Rudolph also leaked a breath of relief to the dean with a soft smile reminiscent of the Mother of Mercy.

"Besides... please, my lord"

"... joy"

Pull that breath in on the way and look at the Dean in surprise. As always, the words leaked quietly, but surely, from the mouth shaped by the smile of Mother Mercy's Dean.

- This orphanage can survive.

Rudolph's thought circuit can't keep up with that dean's words that leak joy. It's a very rude story, but even the Dean is never young. I was seriously worried that my hard work had finally turned to my head, and Rudolph tried to open his mouth.

The Shishi family showed up better.

"... Shishi family?

"Yes! I was offered assistance if you knew this orphanage was to inherit Princess Jessica's will!

To get here, completely Rudolph worried about the dean's head.

"... Dean, you must be tired"

Sensitive to such a change in Rudolph's expression, the Dean sounds ridiculously corny and throat. Around being worried about her head doesn't piss me off, she has a glimpse of her own good character and... experience.

"Oh, my lord? Do you think I saw a fantasy?

"With all due respect. Even the state... bad way to put it, 'I abandoned' this orphanage. A strange human being, like just aiding with emotion, is in this Larchia now-"

I will not sit with you in the Kingdom of Larchia.

"- There must be... what?

"I'm not from Larchia. That person..."

"Yikes! Takeshi - Heb!

"Huh! Huh!

Byrne, and good sound, Gon! The door opened and closed, making a blunt noise that Rudolph looks back in the direction of the sound.

"... what are you doing, Flora?

I held the back of my head and saw Flora squatting.

"Yikes... Yikes! Takobu! Takobu is ready!

Rudolph twisting his neck with a look that really doesn't know what happened to Flora looking up in tears. Seeing that appearance, the Dean opened his mouth with a bitter smile in his usual soft smile.

"... Mr. Rhona? You can't, the door needs to be opened quietly. After that, please hold on to the knock."

"... is that the problem? And I mean... Lorna?

I know you didn't react to that voice, but now the door opens quietly.

"... whilst... no, hon. Right now, Dean... which one do you want?

Brown shortcut with stretched shoulders, crisp big adorable eyes. Probably from earlier 'Heb!' You must have bumped it during, the head of the high nose is red. You'd be right to call it 'cute' rather than 'beautiful', the woman asks, though slightly drawn to Flora, who stares in tears.

"... keep a door banged against a person's head, who is it? wouldn't that be rude?

"... to? Oh, oh! Erasuma! No, I didn't know there were people in front of the door, so I opened them as much as I wanted! I'm so sorry!

Girl bowing her head with as good momentum as she thought in a panic. At the tip of her lowered head is Rhona, who looks up in tears, and it's a narrow space in front of the door. So if you bow your head with such momentum, it's inevitable.

"- That's it. - Whoa!

"~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~!

It is a head-on procedure. The head I shook down as much as I wanted was Flora's. That and the beautiful garlic. Hell paintings were, in a sense, played out in front of Rudolph: beautiful women and girls rolling around with their heads.

"... Dean"

"Mr. Lorna Orian. As you can see, I'm from Solvania, and I'm an earlier 'serious'."

That being said, when I lowered my hips beside Rhona rolling around in tears, the dean strokes his head as he strokes his head, "Leave the pain alone." What a head. Look stunned at that figure.

"… Your Excellency"

"... what's up, Flora?

"Um, why don't you do it to me, too? Like," That hurt - Flora. "

One sigh at Flora holding her head down and still looking up with sparkling eyes. Waiting for Lorna to recover, Rudolph spoke to her about the matter.

"Mr. Lorna, did you say?

"When... to? Oh, yes!

"Nice to meet you. I hold the office of Chancellor in the Kingdom of Larchia..."

"Sa, Prime Minister! Is the Chancellor the Chancellor!

"-Su, Rudolph...... yeah"

"Wow, wow! I don't have any, Dean! Don't be so big! Huh? Why would His Excellency the Chancellor take you to such a crushing orphanage? Dean, could it be pretty big? What?

Lorna waved and panicked that she was feeling a little suspicious. Rudolph stared at the figure to see just a few strange things, then jumped his gaze at the director, still smiling bitterly.

"Mr. Rhona. Chancellor Rudolph frequently takes you to this orphanage. I'm not talking about me being the big guy or anything... because this is Princess Jessica's favorite orphanage"

"Ah... that's what I'm saying. No, we're wrong."

That being said, after laughing haha and scratching her cheeks poly, Lorna corrected her residence.

"... I've shown you an ugly place. We, say Launa Orian. She's the daughter of the Orian Chamber of Commerce, the city of King's Harbor, Solvania, where we do business in Amza."

"Orian Chamber of Commerce...... is it?

"Oh, you've never heard of it, have you? Our Chamber of Commerce doesn't really have a big Chamber of Commerce, even in Emza. I don't think his name sounds that good to the Kingdom of Larchia."

"Excuse me. I was understudied"

"I don't mind."

"So... Excuse me. Now, I'm going to ask you one more thing. I hear the Dean offered you financial assistance for this orphanage earlier?

"That's right. This orphanage is Princess Jessica's beloved orphanage, and I'm sorry to crush you like this, but that's what our Orian Chamber of Commerce wants us to do with full financial assistance."

That's what I said, one bitter laugh.

"... if I could tell, I'd look great, but I'm really not"

"No, what?

"Our place is just a 'desk'. It's a bigger chamber of commerce that really helps fund this."

"... ho"

"My lord, if I did it, I'd know... you see, there's a lot of sorbania too. Financial assistance for orphanages, and for other countries! If anything happens, it's a mess. Why are you helping an orphanage in your own country? What?"

You're right.

"Ho, but the chairman of that" big chamber of commerce ", Han, he's not going to crush this orphanage because of what" much grace "is to Princess Jessica. with bitter meat measures."

"I set up Mr. Orian Chamber of Commerce as a contact point," he said.

That's what I'm saying.

"... how can you tell me the name of that Chamber of Commerce?

"That's absolutely forbidden! They say... please give me a break."

Put your hands together and say, 'Excuse me!' And Lorna lowering her head. Rudolph sighed as he called out to raise his head to the figure, please.

"... that's very kind of you, but it's hard not to thank you."

"I'll be sure to tell you that from our side and put it down."

"Thank you."

"Yes, and... Your Eminence is a fly, isn't he? The chairman there, Han, is just doing what he did, and he's getting us a fee that's not cheap. The orphanage helps, and the Kingdom of Larchia helps."

Look, no one's damaged! And there's a grin on Rudolph's face, too, at Lorna, who smiles and shows.

"... ok. Now let me sweeten your words."

"Yeah, keep it that way -"

Smile at the words.

"Eric, hey!

A different cry from that word popped out of Lorna's mouth.

"- My lord, don't move!

Flora responsive to that voice. I didn't move my body in a sudden shout...... I didn't move it, and the sound of a white 'sole' passing in front of Rudolph's eyes solidifying on the spot, followed by Baki, sounded.

"Are you all right, my lord!

A fluffy skirt - Flora, who turned and kicked off the 'egg' thrown at Rudolph, rushed to Rudolph.

"... I wonder what it would be like for a young maiden to spin and kick in front of a man? Don't show me your bare feet."

"Is that what you're saying! You're hurt!

"Oh, I'm fine. And... thanks."

He exhaled as relieved by Rudolph's words, and then turned his definite gaze to the dean.

"Director!"

"Also, sorry!

"Do you think I should be sorry!

"Flora."

"Your Excellency wants you to remain silent! You're just not one thing! And..."

"Get off me! Get off me!

"There's no way you're letting go, you asshole Eric! You know what you've done!

To block Flora's words, Lorna, who strangled one boy with wings, came back to the room. In that "early work" where she didn't even know when she was leaving the room, Flora wrapped her tongue around her heart and still stared at the boy she called Eric with a tight gaze.

"You! You tried to harm His Excellency Rudolph by anything!

"Oh, I'm sorry about that! I'll tell Eric to tell us to give him a break!

"You will remain silent! You want me to tell you something good? Trying to harm His Excellency the Chancellor of the Kingdom of Larchia, do you think we should just let him say and listen!

"Oh, yes... ho, ho, but -"

"It's your fault!

"- Eric! Shut up!"

"You! Because of you stopping the war! We wanted to fight till the end! I wanted to kill Lyme's human! Princess Jessica's - Jessie, I wanted to take your sister's enemies! Why not?

"So you say you tried to harm His Excellency? Misunderstood. Come on!

"Ugh! What do you know! We were so ready to die! Jesse, if I could just take your sister's enemies, that would have been great! But why are you stopping the war!

Such a strong gaze that it seems like you can kill people with just your gaze. Eric continued his words to Rudolph, who shut up as he showered that gaze all over him.

"You don't regret it! Sister Jessie, our favorite princess Jessica has been killed! How can war be stopped so easily! You don't hate me! You're not mad at me! You don't think I want to kill you!

……

"Say something! You must be the Chancellor! You must be a great man! Hey, why not!

"You fool my lord -"

"Flora."

Hand controlled Flora trying to cram into Eric, Rudolph bent over and aligned his gaze with Eric.

"... you loved Princess Jessica."

"That's right! I loved my sister Jesse!

"... so am I."

"Then..."

"That's why we stopped the war."

Eric, who tried to keep talking, squeezes into Rudolph's words and gaze. After staring at that figure, I returned the body I was bending over and thanked the Dean.

"... that's it for today. Excuse me."

"... Huh? Yeah, well, can't you do it?

Rudolph turns himself in and leaves the room early.

"Or, my lord! Oh, wait!

He followed his back as he panicked, and Flora, who had left the room, also stopped in front of the door and thanked the dean, closing the door and leaving the room behind.

◇◆◇◆◇◆

"My lord!"

When he finally catches up to Rudolph's back walking forward, Flora stuffs Rudolph with her rising breath intact. The gaze seemed both, as if he was worried about Rudolph... and blaming him.

"... Was that a good idea?

"It's what the kid did. That's just an 'egg', too, right? You don't have to be guilty."

"But if I was a stone? If it's a bad hit."

"There may not have been a life."

"My lord!"

Flora turns to Rudolph, who says so too much like other HRs, and now clearly blames him.

"... Your Eminence will not sit on your own body. In the future, reinforce the escort. And don't let that orphanage take you for the time being."

"Right. Let's do that. That would be better for a boy named Eric."

With Rudolph laughing so mockingly, Flora feels like she can tighten her chest. As it was that feeling of extravagance, Flora held Rudolph strong and strong over her back.

"... I told you earlier? My pre-dowry daughter..."

"I don't think you've done anything wrong. I believe that your decision is politically correct."

……

"I believe you are right, even if there are emotionally unacceptable people out there. Many lives were definitely saved thanks to you. So, so, please!

Don't look so spicy.

"... it's hard for me"

A small voice that's going to disappear. Hearing that voice over his back, Rudolph was loud, letting loose his sigh and showing it.

"... don't worry, Flora. I'm not depressed."

"But!

"It's not hard at all, if you say so, it's a lie. But that's what political judgment is all about. We are obliged to pursue the greatest number of happiness, but we are not responsible for achieving the happiness of all. It would be nice if we could all achieve happiness."

……

"I myself would be lying if I said I had nowhere to think. I'm going to let you die on that battlefield... and if I tell you that I've never thought that maybe I'd be happy to fight until one of you is ruined, this is a lie too. It will, but still this decision is correct. It's a bad way to say that a boy named Eric lives and will replace Princess Jessica in the future... that kind of thing, I wish he had a living goal"

"Death" does not produce anything, so say nothing, slowly untie Flora's hand, which is turned to her own hips. Only in the beginning was the resistance lifted, but Flora turned her moist eyes to Rudolph.

"... I regret it"

"What?

"I can see that Rudolph loved Princess Jessica."

"... do you?

"You admired Princess Jessica so much that you even thought about returning a country called the Kingdom of Larchia to ashes? The position of Chancellor of the Kingdom of Larchia is better. It's... cheating."

"I don't think it's a cheating or cheating problem."

"As for the same woman, I regret it, and I envy you... and I'm jealous"

"You... well, good. This is a grand story."

"Already! That's what Master Rudolph will do immediately!

"If you persuaded my wife, I'd think about it."

"Ugh! Do you have a wife? That's a little... or cheating! It's against the rules to let your wife out! Aren't you ashamed, as a man!

"I'd like you to be a man to the point of being rolled over my wife's hands. What, are you coming to my son's wife?

"Absolutely not! What are you thinking, Master Rudolph! Such a bong!"

"... for once, he's my son?

"Anyway, if you say that, absolutely not! Because you can't!

"Oh, okay, okay."

I walked out with my hands patterned like a pain in the ass.

"... Master Rudolph?

Rudolph stops that foot inadvertently. I glanced at Flora staring at Rudolph like that surprised me and looked at her seriously.

"Ru, Master Rudolph? Oh, so serious and staring at me... its lightness -"

"Flora, did you ever study in Solvania?

"- So... Huh? Yeah, yeah. About three years ago. Yes! Because Master Rudolph says go! Did you miss me so much?"

"Earlier words, will you speak in Solvanian?

"- La...... uh, Master Rudolph? I don't really know what that means..."

"Just a little confirmation. Please."

"Uh, if you ask Rudolph... Cohon"

One cough.

"'Anyway, if I don't say so, I won't! From Akan!'... so, what...?

What's the point of this confirmation, Flora twisting her neck thinking so. Rudolph turned his grin towards Flora after he showed himself thinking with his gaze just a little up.

"... no, I was just wondering"

"Did you care? Er... was something wrong with my Solvanian?

Wave and show that you're different from Flora, who looks anxious.

"When you say 'no' in Solvania... you say 'no', you think so."

◇◆◇◆◇◆

"... what the hell"

"What the hell, man? Do you really know what you've done?

Put your hands on Eric, who sits on his waist and looks at him like a stubborn gaze - Lorna looks up in a sigh and then sinks his body all the way down.

"- Yo!"

Leap with the momentum as it is. He stood with his hands open pitched on a wall only about the width of his leg.

"... you're a light contractor, Nee-chan"

"Who's Nee-chan or who. We have a fine name, Lorna."

Keep your hips down with Ston and sit next to Eric. For a moment, Eric swallows his words, remembering earlier, when he was caught quickly, and now that he has shown a skill in light merchants.

"Hey, Eric? How many did you do?

"What the hell, suddenly"

"Yeah."

"... I'm fourteen years old"

"Fourteen. It's a lot lower than ours."

"... hey, hey - stay! Why are you hitting me?

"Ask a girl about her age!

"Though the current flow will feel like asking for absolute age! It's unreasonable, I want to..."

Eric stares at Lorna in disgruntled voice. Without such Eric or anything, Lorna took out the apple she had put in her nostalgia.

"Want some?

"... I need it"

"What, you're not being honest. You want to skip dinner tonight? Hungry..."

In the middle of a conversation. A belly worm, too honest to say, howled in lust for food.

"... you see, I'm hungry"

"No, it's from your belly right now! What, are you trying to blame people!

Lorna's, from the stomach.

Laughing haha at first sight, Lorna bites the apple in her hand.

"You're gonna eat it yourself after all!

"What? I thought you wanted it.

"You're not! I'm not... oh, no more! It's going crazy!"

Scratch your head with gasp and get stuffy on a narrow fence, Eric. Looking sideways at that figure, Flora took another bite of the apple.

"... hey Eric"

"What the fuck!

"Revenge, do you want to?

Eric's breath stops at Lorna, who says so like it's nothing. but it's also for a moment. I exhaled loosely and gazed at Lorna - a very, very cold gaze.

"After the war... the grownups looked relieved all the time."

"... hmm"

"So many grown-ups who said," I take revenge on Princess Jessica. "The war is over, I'm glad... you're laughing."

One thing to self-derision, and still to hate...... if you can't forgive the traitor, you just say so, giving him a fierce grin.

"... Everybody, say it." The war is over. "" Don't think about revenge. "" Princess Jessica doesn't want that. "Who knew? That's not true!

You got excited in the middle of a conversation, Eric yelling like that to throw up. Flora sees Eric like that with a gaze that includes pity.

"... poor kid, Eric"

"... you say that too, hey? Don't be such a jerk about revenge? Ha! Anyway, that's such a mon, isn't it? You say it like the grownups do, don't you? Live more positively. I'll tell you what, I'm not..."

"Oh, you don't, do you?

Take control of Eric. I saw Eric stuck in words and took another sip of the apple.

"Vengeance is fine. Are you gonna get angry? Can't help but hate and hate? Well, is that what you want? Life is only redeemed by life. Eric, I know what I'm talking about."

"Hey... honey?

"Live more positively? What an asshole. The meaning of my life, I find it myself. Saya, Eric. You're right."

"Uh... so, but!

"What? Would you deny it if it were affirmed? You don't think revenge is right?

"Oh, no! I'm not... but I am! I told you earlier, hey, you poor thing!

"That's not what we said."

"Then what do you mean!

I stare at Eric, who recruits me, and take another sip of the apple. Drop the apple down to the core outside the fence, and let's do that.

"I don't know if I'm wrong about the vengeful."

Softly, enough.

"- You don't think so, do you?

Beautiful...... very beautiful, smile.

"Think about it. No. Eric, where you killed the Chancellor over there, it doesn't make any difference? Is the Chancellor here? Didn't he? The Chancellor came to talk about harmony and didn't just get on it. I can't help killing the Chancellor."

"Hey... honey?

"Well, why don't you kill Lyme's president? That's not gonna happen? Lyme's president is the same as the prime minister. After all, don't just dance on your hands."

"Hey, hey, what's going on! The -"

"Hey, Eric? Don't you know?

"- Words... Huh?

"In the end, I asked you if you knew who was the worst. If Larkia and Lime's dignitaries jumped with their palms, you wouldn't know whose palms they were. What's wrong with revenge? Vengeance feels good, not if you avenge it. You don't mind if you set the goal of living on revenge, do you? Hey, Eric? Don't you think?

Laugh.

Seems fun and helpless, Lorna continues to laugh and moan.

"If you screw around about us, Eric, I'll tell you. I don't know who's wrong, I don't know what's wrong."

- To avenge it, so is its' technology '... everything.

"... what are you going to do, Eric?

……

……

"... to you"

"Yeah?"

"If I beg you, will you tell me?

Who's worse?

What's wrong?

How can I be quiet about this feeling of my lack of whereabouts - the way.

"Only one, if you promise."

"What is it?

"Why don't you call me 'Nee-chan' about us? We're in Lorna."

That's what I said, to Lorna, who giggles her right hand.

"... Okay, Lorna"

Eric offered his own right hand and held it.
