The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)

"No, you've been here a long time at night. Is it time for an opening?

"... Yeah, yeah. Right."

"Nightclubs hosted by the Royal Castle of Larchia are always fun and tedious ~"

"Yeah, yeah. Right."

"Oh, yeah! I know, Mr. Courta? Larchia Royal Castle Specialty," The Wrath of Room XVII "! Is that it? Was that the name?

"Yeah, yeah. Right."

"It's already amazing. That royal maid with the royal castle is said to be" The Hua of the Royal Castle of Larchia "angry, crying and calling with vegetables. I will do everything in my power to overshadow my previous image! All I'm saying is,"

"Yeah, yeah. Right."

……

"Yeah, yeah. Right."

"Courta, don't you like me?

"Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah - like, dislike? Oh, that's not true!

"Really? But, well, I'm convinced. If you don't like it, Hutu won't let you drink from your head for the first time."

"... there is no specification for an apology on the matter either. All I can say is... I'm sorry."

From Emili, half forcefully, the coata of the body of the 'taken away' prisoner lowered his head deep... to the alois in front of him, not to mention to say if he would have a head on the ground.

"Oh no, I'm kidding, right? If a boulder suddenly drinks you..."

"I'm sorry, I really apologize"

Suddenly they take me away and it's here. I am a sociopath who has had a good year with Kota, and I am not going to hate taking responsibility for what I have done myself, but even if I wanted to beg the boulder to spare me a little on the day... well, the thing is that there would be room for discretion.

"Hmm, that's a little hard to talk to ~. Well, I can't help it... this is troublesome"

That's what I'm saying, Aloys, with the look on his face that he's in deep trouble. In his chest, he puts in a penetration, 'No, it's rather me in trouble,' and Kota reflects on himself wondering if that penetration was possible in the boulder. With that apology, try to open your mouth again.

"We can't talk about this, can we? The matter of 'cooperation'"

Talk, stop the words.

"Ah! How do you know! You look like that, don't you? But, well, even if you think about it, look. It was two days before you told Emily this story. So, you were at the Hotel Larchia yesterday, right?" Baumgarden's Ice Princess "and. Then at that hour, Emily wouldn't know what the hell she was doing if she thought about it for a second? Yes, Emily came to convince me for you."

Please wait a moment.

"- So... what? Is this a good place to be?

"No, I heard a word I wasn't used to hearing... of Baumgarden... what?

"No? You were with Miss Theon Baumgarden yesterday, weren't you?" Baumgarden's Ice Princess "and"

"Is that really Mr. Scion I know?

Where did you apologize to earlier? To the sudden change in Hota's expression, Aloys also flies his gaze to the left and right in such a way that he can't hide a little agitation.

"... uh... arr? Theon Baumgarden, right? A talented woman who graduated chief from the University of Larchia, and a leading researcher at the Academic Research Institute."

……

"Uh... I rarely come out into the social world, but when I do occasionally come out into the social world, I always seem careless to sprinkle cigarettes all by myself, cutting off any man's inviting complaints completely with one stroke, and saying that not one of the rumors floated around with all that beauty and talent... you know, Miss Theon, right?

"I agree with the first half, but I don't understand the second half at all."

I'm sure it's about Theon. Hota adds around that the three emotions of "Taru, Uzu, and Nasty Stinks" must have the look of living together. "The Ice Princess," etc.

"... I'll boil the tea with a heso."

"... I wonder what. I'm feeling very sorry for Miss Zion right now."

Aloise shapes his hands into palms and flies his gaze into the starry sky. but it's also for a moment. I punched my matching hand and turned my gaze to Kota with a grin.

"Well, I don't care about Miss Zion at this time. More like a continuation of the conversation. That's why I'm starting to get a little suspicious yesterday about you hanging out with Miss Scion... but anyway, Emili came while you were at the Hotel Larchia, right? 'Please, brother. Please help Master Coata...' Here's what I'm going to beg you for in tears! No more cheats! How do you know how to make yourself look so cute? Hey, Coata, don't you think so, too? Already, Emily is too cute to live, I am!

Aroise with a rough nose and stuffed with Kota. To that extra desperation, Kota accidentally took a step.

"Oh, please calm down, Mr. Aloys! What are you talking about!

"I'm talking about my sister being so cute!

"Was that the story!?

One pseudonym four letters floated on Kota's head. That is, 'Ciscon' and.

"And please calm down anyway!

"Oh... Emily... cute..."

"Ah, Mr. Aloys! Hey, are you sure you're okay! Please go back to your sanity!

"Are you insane? What time am I insane? If I let Emily tell the story now, I'll be able to get there in the morning!

"It's insane! That's completely insane!

"What can I tell you and show you? Give me this super masterpiece of mine," Sister Love "over Jian Di! No, you have to listen to me!

"Please, go back to your sanity!

Please give me some sparkling alcohol, please I can escape this situation... or I can welcome enough sparkling alcohol to this situation... Hota said he challenged Aloys on his mission to restore sanity.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

"... sorry. disturbed."

"... no... the... no"

It took a little while for Aloys to get back to his sanity.

"But I can assure you I didn't do anything wrong! Yes, I'm Emily Notesfield."

"Sorry, I've heard enough."

No, he must have been sane the whole time. Anyway, Aloys nevertheless carries on the words as he floats a color that just seems a little dissatisfied with Kota, who says so and blocks Aloys' words.

"... well, don't tell me that. Holla, I don't care if you drink from your head."

"... Though I feel Sole is only a little cheated in this situation"

"Better choices for each other, right? Or what? You're not the type to be convinced you're not the best?

"No...... right. If you'll excuse me."

I put a full grin on Kota's words and said, 'All right!' He nodded and continued his words with the delight of Aloys.

"Me and Emily are five miles apart at our age. My youngest sisters were born in their youngest years, so the feeling of 'being' has been close since they were conceited... oh, of course the other sisters are cute too, right? But right? I knew this... a little different, right? Being a 'brother' as a matter of course and feeling like being a 'brother'... hard to understand?

"No, I understand"

My sisters, who had always been "here" before I realized what I was feeling, and my sisters, who were born after my ego sprouted. It's more about which one of you remembers what it feels like to be closer to your sister.

"Good for you. Because even if I tell my brother, it's only a matter of time. Well, that's why I've been looking forward to Emily's birth. I'm not the only one. My brother, my older sister, my younger sister, my father and my mother, of course, were all waiting for me. My mother's stomach grew a little bigger, and every time we talked about kicking and moving and squirming, our family was filled with smiles, happy, happy..."

There, take a breath. Aloise floating his gaze in the sky. Likewise, raise your gaze up so that you can catch your gaze.

Until Emily was born.

"... Huh?

"... that's a different story, Mr. Coata? What color does my hair look like?

"Er... is it money?

"Correct. What color are your eyes?

"Green, right?

"Oh. And my parents both have blonde hair and green eyes. I inherited the color and eyes of this hair from my parents... well, it's a testament to notes-filt, something like that."

"Really? It..."

Tell me, I realize.

"... both parents, blonde and green eyes?

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

If both parents are blonde and have emerald green eyes.

"I was born with dark hair and dark eyes."

What about Emily's beautiful brunette? Beautiful black eyes.

- Integration, who gives in?

"... you give birth to your own stomach hurting. A child taken and given birth to a woman is a pure 'fact', but only 'faith' can say that a child taken and given birth to a man is his own. I had to believe that she was my child, and my father's faith wasn't that strong."

Well, I can't help it, but laugh lonely.

"The Kingdom of Flame is a country close to male and female homosexuality, but women's position is still weak, and naturally infidelity is not acceptable. My father's stuffed." Whose child did you cage in? "Still, my mother cried and elucidated." I swear, I've never loved anyone but you. "Still, the baby you're born with doesn't resemble my father or my mother, does it? Well, you doubt it, don't you?

……

"In that sense, I was able to deal more easily with Emily. Even if she's not my father's daughter, she's my half-sister. My father didn't want to meet Emily face-to-face, my mother cried all the time, my brother was my brother and I went to private school in Wangdu... well, it all happened. As the oldest, I took care of Emily. I took a bath, and I changed diapers. I was Emily too, but Emily didn't take long to be me either. I'm proud to have replaced Emily's" parents. "

Regardless, I borrowed the hand of a samurai with a mansion, but with a great deal of tea - and I laughed at myself and showed it.

"It... so...? Well, Emily... who the hell..."

"Well, I can't help pulling too much, so just to conclude... Mr. Coata, would you look at my face a little closer?

"............... Yes?

"... no, it would be a little scratchy if they hated me so much that I lagged behind. It's okay, because I'm a pure Flame. I don't have a hobby like Westria."

"... ha. Now, if you'll excuse me."

Just a little bit of courage in your heart. Those words come to Kota's mind, and she peeks straight into Aloys' face. Its faint face, illuminated by the moonlight, turns red from just a little drunkenness, and still, in a thing that undermines the beauty of Aloys -

"... I can light it up a bit - oh, sorry! Joke! Because it's a joke! Don't hate me so much because I can't get on with it!

……

"Ha. It was my fault. Anyway, what do you say? Me and Emily, don't you think they look a lot alike?

"... right. Yeah, it's very similar."

I didn't realize it with my head that I wasn't sober and sober, but as Aloys put it, the two are very similar. Whether or not, there is a difference in age, a difference between men and women, so much so that they look alike at a glance, but they would fall within a very similar category of brothers, that is, each and every part of the face is very similar.

"I look a lot like my father, especially among my brothers and sisters, don't I?

"It's... I mean..."

"Well, to say so. In conclusion, Emily looks just like my father. Especially those tight eyes. Because they look alike."

That's what I say, Aloys, who laughs happily and shows off. but Kota can't keep up with the handling of his head at all.

"Hey, wait a minute! Huh? So, uh, how do you explain Emily's hair and the color of her eyes?

Showing a slight smile at Kota's dialogue, which the process could not keep up with, Aloyce took over the words.

"The Notesfilt family has a land facing the sea, and the deal is pretty flourishing, isn't it? Whatever, we're fishing, but the main thing is trade, and that's a lot of trade with foreign countries."

"Well, is that it?

"It's not a place to go by land, it's a trade across the ocean. Our grandfather's grandfather, Takagrandfather, who flew out of Orkena and traveled around the world, sees one woman there. No status, no honor, no money. Combining altitude, beauty, and both... dark-haired, dark-eyed Yamates, right?

……

"Do you know my ancestors?

In the words of Alois, Kota nods and shows.

Separate heredity, there is a saying. It is a phenomenon where genetic information does not appear in the parents' generation, but 'separates' the 'world' generation. Genes of grandparents often appear, but they are often passed down from generation to generation.

"Well, that's why Emili was a proper Notesfilt daughter. Congratulations, congrats"

……

"... and I just wanted to say... The first thing I could do, 'Misunderstood', is something I can't solve inside, right?

"... Yep"

"My father was troubled by the gradual resemblance of my daughter. I threw those words at my mother and wondered if that would be allowed. If you think so, no more, no more. Half of it is someone else's blood. It's easy to find something that doesn't resemble it. Half of it is self-defense and... well, that's suspicious. When that happens, my mother cries and complains again. 'This girl is definitely your daughter!' Right. I don't know how to say this... because my father was still young"

"... is that right?"

"I have a daughter, too. I'm turning nine this year... well, she looks a lot like me."

"... then you must be a cute child"

……

"... what?

"... hands, don't put it out, okay?

"I won't let you out! What are you talking about, you!

"Yeah. 'Cause, Coata, you have a ten-year-old fiancé, right? One is different."

"Oh, that! And, anyway!

"That's a joke, though. Have a daughter... or you'll know when you have a child. If this child wasn't my own child, so dear... I'm sure I'd go nuts at the time"

"... now?

"Even if my wife worked infidelity, it doesn't matter now. That kid is a cute, cute little girl of mine. For nine years, I raised her dearly... my dear daughter."

That's what I said, sigh.

"Or maybe my father could have treated me a little differently if Emily had lived in the Notesfilt family the whole time... badly in between, is that disrespectful? When Emily turned five, there was a national celebration."

"Celebration, what?

"Birth of Erica Orenfeld van Flame"

"... ah"

"Mr. Leezelotte, who hits Erica's home hall, is from the Viscount van der Fend, the territory next to the Notesfilt family. My house and the Fandelfends had a relatively good relationship. My mother and Lady Lieselotte were close, too. My mother was very distressed by her impatient appearance, and Mr. Leezelotte was very distressed..."

"... As a samurai with Erica, did you serve Emili?

smile bitterly, one nod of affirmation.

"You don't hate me either, do you? I want Better."

"... Yep"

"In fact, thanks to Master Lieselotte, we had a gradual conversation and - a smile - a return to our home. I hate to say it, but I guess my father would have calmed down a little too if 'cause' hadn't been in front of him. Originally, I was almost certain it would be my daughter. My father just needs time to admit it... and Leezelotte made that time."

……

"It's never a good idea to take Emily to grow up thinking she's the cause. So Master Lieselotte's choice was the right one. Yes, it was the right choice."

Again, deep, sigh.

"Still, to the Notesfilt family - the groove that was born between the Notesfilt family and Emily went big and deep over time."

……

"Emily... right, didn't Erica ever tell you?

Answer 'No' to this story, and to Aloise, who tilts his neck and shows it.

"I didn't ask you, no! Why is Viscount Lady Erica's maid doing something!

"What's a maid of honor... well, once I'm in the royal family, too? You can't leave a caretaker to someone who doesn't know where he is, can you?

"Normally, when you get to a certain age, it goes back to the main house. Isn't that the thing?

"... there's a lot going on, and the house over there."

"... not directly, though. Erica said," There's a lot going on. "

Kota remembers Erica saying that and sighing on her evening in Parsena.

"I see." Various "? Well, as Erica said, there are 'things'. Emily's a pretty good year now, but there's still no marriage, no floating rumors, right? Do you have any idea why?

"No, I don't know as an oligarchy"

"The other sister - a sister for Emily, but the sisters are already married. My older sister, my three mothers. We both married the man my father recommended."

……

"... you don't just take those stories to Emily, does your father?"

"Redemption, is it?

"You don't want to let go of me until now and make my doubtful child a 'tool' any more? Well, I guess there's that too..."

Maybe my father can't measure the distance.

"... I have such pity for Emily. pitiful, pitiful, pathetic."

So.

"... so much, my love. I want Emily to be happy."

Pong with a mean grin on his face so as to mislead the true meaning of the leak, and slap his hands to show.

"So really, Coata, I'm not mad that you hung liquor from my head, I am."

"... Really?

"'Cause, right? He tried to protect my little sister from Poison Tooth. There are some things that I don't quite interpret as poisonous fangs myself... well, that's how you learn to be jealous for your sister as my brother... well, it's complicated, but it's also true to say I'm a little happy"

Say that, chuckle fluffy.

"I'm just saying that's 'Courta Matussillo'... what do you think?

Words like that leak out of my mouth that remain in the shape of a smile I laughed and showed.

"Huh?"

"As I said earlier, Emily sends me letters about once a month. I've heard a lot about you. [M] I can't believe His Highness Sonia came to Terra... Knock it off"

He rattled the back of his throat to bite off the inclusive laugh, then said 'rude' and coughed up one with Cohon. In that trick, the bitterness runs on Hota's expression.

"Don't look like that, okay? At least it's not a bad story. No, you think they love you - don't you?

"... Hi"

"No. Well, that's why it was in Emili's letter with admiration for you - and it was jealousy. Oh, 'what are you saying to my real brother!' Don't think of him like that, okay?

"I don't think..."

I don't think so. If you've listened to what I've been saying, you can't possibly think. If I take it to Emily and the only 'pipe' with my parents is Aloise, I won't be able to stick around.

"- As a real brother, as a substitute person, I still want Emily to be loved by one man, or I want her to love me. Well... we have a family environment, and they want us to have a happy family."

Potty and leaky, Aloise waving like a panic.

"Oh, I hope you don't get me wrong. I don't care if you've got your hands on a lot of women, I'm not going to jam them or blame them. I don't know about Yamate, but the laws of the Kingdom of Flame do not provide for any penalties for bigamy. In the first place, if Emily thinks it's good, she's not even complaining from my mouth."

……

"... well, that being said, let me say this kind of stupidity won't punish you - I think so."

Didn't you? And Kota nods silently to Aloys, who smiles gently, then slowly lowers his head.

"You don't need an apology, do you?

"I don't apologize. It feels... rude."

"... well"

"... Yes"

Frequent silence. Afterwards, Aloyce let him try to punch his hand in the bread.

"... you're soaking up. Anyway! That's such a cute Emily wish. I want to make it happen for you, and I think it should. Emily told me, I think it was the introduction of the new currency?

In response to Aloys' inquiry, Kota responds by accepting. Nodding naggingly at the trick, Alois continued his words.

"To be honest, I also felt the limit to coin-only commerce. The Becker Chamber of Trade is itself a chamber of commerce made up of goods in Zbari 'Trade'. Because we often cross the ocean, it's dangerous to take flame white gold coins whittling around, it's hassle, and most importantly, it's inefficient. A new currency for the state's prestige… I think it's probably a 'note', but if you could make me a note, I'd never go over it." I agree. "

"Thank you"

"Is it too soon to thank you? I'm just saying yes."

"... that's an inclusive way of putting it. Anything important but" me "?

Show Kota the surprised look on his shoulder.

"I am the president of the Becker Chamber of Trade, but that being said, I was born a Notsfilt family. I'm not a Becker."

"... have no right to make decisions," he said?

"I'm not. But you still want to take care of it."

He said, "Hold on."

"Are you sure?

"Yes. Just as a nobleman takes his family name, a scholar takes his academy for" special, "so does the Wang Du Commercial Federation for" monetary casting rights ". It is the only publicly acceptable means of engaging in the affairs of the nation by merchants who are not aristocrats, given to them by Alex, the founding emperor."

"... I see. Honor, is it? I thought we were talking about profit alone."

"Regardless, there is no denying that monetary casting rights will be profitable. Differential income is a big deal. But you know what, Coata? Still, do you really think that a chamber of commerce with a shaky stall would be able to sit on a chair from the top of the Flame Kingdom to nine if it wasn't for the benefit of monetary casting rights?

"That's... don't you think"

"Rather, banknotes have a greater advantage in terms of accounts. Not half the amount you move in a day. Because it's all the chambers of commerce, each chamber of the Committee of Nine. Of course, that's all it costs to say. I'm not carrying it for free, even Flame White Gold. Even if we just think about the annual transportation costs, we're going to have a change, right?

Still, smile and show me that's not the problem.

"- So, Coata, I want you to convince my 'wife'."

"Convince Mr. Aloys's wife...?

"My father-in-law is enrolled, so only my wife and daughter are drawing the blood of the Becker family. You're not gonna let Boulder decide what's so important to his nine-year-old daughter, are you?

"Yes..."

"If my wife, the Becker man, says' yeah '... I shall vote in favour of your proposal in the next Committee of Nine"

What do you say? and to Aloys, who only asks with his gaze, Hota is silent.

"- Okay. Thank you, so please."

But it's also for a moment. Separate it from what we had together and show it with a grin.

"Copy that. By the way, Mr. Coata, what are your plans for tomorrow?

"Especially"

"Then I'll talk to my wife tonight. Tomorrow's... right, but after lunch - oh, yeah. Just one thing, can I put a condition on it?

"Conditions, is it?

"It's okay. You don't have to be so vigilant, it's an easy condition. I want Emily to accompany me whenever I convince my wife."

"Emili's accompaniment, is it... it"

"Can't you?

"No... I don't mind, Emily would have preferred to have accompanied me if it was convenient."

It's important to negotiate. It's a bad way to say 'card', but it's self-evident that it's more likely that a stranger, Kota, will succeed if she goes out with Emili, who is in-laws though. If you try to be Kota, who no longer hates to rely on people, Emili's companionship is rather a wish or a fulfillment.

"... that's why you're in 'Conditions'?

The question is, why does Aloise put it out as a 'condition'? If the opposite is the case, for example, 'I want to see the power of Ho Tai', and if you encourage me to go alone, I know, but this doesn't make any sense. He looked funny at Kota with a question mark on his head, and Alois grinned at the edge of his mouth and drooled the spider's thread.

"Do you have an answer?

"Professor, if you wish."

"There are three reasons. One thing, my wife is grateful, she adores Emily a lot, but Emily won't be able to meet her inside because of Terra's residence. I'm here at the corner Larchia. I want you to meet my wife."

Long time encounter with the body. I see, I can understand. To Kota, who consented and urged him to continue with his eyes, Aloys gave a look - a look like "prankster."

"I was wondering if you needed backup fire."

"... Yes?

"No? I always thought in Emily's letters. My sister is so cute, I wonder why Coata won't pick you ~. So, I noticed. I'm sure that pretty little sister is the" wife. "

……

Kota, no words. Without such a hota in mind, Aloys lightly continues the machine gun of words.

"Right? I do think Sonia is beautiful, don't you? Even Miss Theon is not bad, and even the Virgin of Larchia is charming. If you look at each and every one of them separately, you think they're all attractive women? But, you know, Sonia's only ten years old, right? As long as you don't have 'that chi', Courta, you're definitely out of defense, right? Miss Theon doesn't know what you're thinking, and what kind of a raccoon is the Virgin of Larchia? Our Emily can't possibly lose, can she? Right? Coata, you think so, don't you?

Kota gets a little 'hiccup' on Aloise, who stuffs his nose roughly. And there came one question on Hota's head.

"The... Mr. Aloys?

"That beautiful brunette! Clear black eyes, sharp brains! I'm not ashamed to put you anywhere. I'm proud of you. - What?

"No...... what about Erica?

"What are you talking about, Coata?"

"No, what are you talking about... oh, I'm sorry. It's not how Erica likes you, but objectively, Erica is also a beautiful woman."

"There's no way our Emily's gonna beat that wall."

"- I don't know... Huh?

Kota, once again, utterly stubborn.

"No way, Mr. Cotta, are those extinct walls good for you? That's a little hobby. And Erica's such an extinct, muscled royalty, isn't she? You can never cook or clean, can you? It's time to quit, such a wall."

Cold things flow down Kota's spine to Alois, who strangles her NG words in a row when Erica hears them. I think I have to say something, and still desperately move my head that doesn't turn very cleverly, wondering if I'd like to hear it here, but I still feel like it's the best place to hear it here.

"... the... hate, what is it? About Erica."

What came out was such a mediocre word. With a full grin on the words.

"You hate it!

Aloise assures me.

"Master Erica is too 'sticky' for Emily. Are you old enough, Erica? It's time for you to leave me, Emily. Well, Emily's late marriage has my father's influence, right? But you know what? I also think the title" The Samurai of Erica Orenfeld van Flame, the King's sister, "is making a man pull a dong, too. I already blew it, how will you take responsibility if our Emily's wedding is delayed! I want to go to the couch."

……

"If that's how much you hate it, you must hate it, right?

Emili Complex, abbreviated as Emicon, what a nagging thought floated behind Kota's brain and disappeared because of the ciscon in front of him, I'm sure. Finally, he's called "Jealous B".

"... So, what's the third one?

It's kind of a step by step - I don't know what to say about this, but Kota is starting to look like a fool, and he's throwing a question at Aloys with a feeling equal to throwing.

"Don't you see?

He came back with another question. Smile at Kota, who puts a question mark on his head.

"You're my brother who won't disturb my sister's love path and wholeheartedly supports me, right? Brother, point up, right?

……

"I am, Coata."

Best of the day, with a smile on your face.

"'Brother, Ta-ishiki! I want you to say,"

Such an alloyce and a back belly, the best sigh of the day leaked out of Kota's mouth.
