The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)

Episode 145: The battle in this place, the battle in that place

Adolf Burkhardt, chairman of Hotel Larchia, breathes a small breath when he thinks it's time for the light of the day to slide through the window to reflect with a cup of metal placed on his desk. After cooling down and sipping the warmer tea, Adolphe took a seat and spoke to his secretary, who was supposed to be holding back to confirm his next appointment.

"... you're not here"

Trying to speak up, I smile bitterly at the secretary who doesn't see that indoors. Even when I got older, no, I turned it into an embarrassing, indescribable smile that seemed kind of proud of me that I was even willing to focus more with each passing year.

"… Chairman"

and, at the same time, the doors of the office are reluctantly opened. It was a secretary who looked familiar, and still had an unfamiliar look on his face. What an unspeakable look on the face of a secretary who had a smile as usual and a fact, and an adorable smile at all times.

"... what's up, that's unusual. I can't believe you look like that."

"No... Um, I'm sorry. But... you see the customer."

"... customers?

To the secretary's words, Adolph turns his expression into a surprised sole and makes a schedule book in his brain. During this time of day, the schedule confirmed that he planned to visit the Cassandra Chamber of Commerce and opened his mouth to the secretary.

"... we are going to head to the Cassandra Chamber of Commerce. Be polite and wish me home."

A short, sharp word. I think the phrase 'yes, I did' is coming home, trying to get my seat up...... Adolf stops the move.

"What's up?

Really, it doesn't seem usual. Adolph sighs heavily at his usual crisp, favorable deeds lurked, or shows his decadent secretary at the door.

"... okay? The Hotel Larchia is' Advance Priority '. No matter how noble he may be, no matter how powerful he may be, no matter how wealthy he may be, he does not take precedence over' advance agreement '. Your Majesty doesn't want to go sideways."

"… Yes, I understand"

"Right. You've been my secretary for a long time. I don't know if I could ever teach you anything like this. Then..."

"- So, would it be nice if there wasn't an 'advance'?

Voices come from the outside of the door to block Adolf's words. To that familiar word, Adolf narrowed his eyes, and the secretary shrunk himself.

"... was you"

"Yes, it's me, Lord Adolph. You're out of time."

"... dare you come in"

"Oh? May I?

"If you stay like that, you can't even talk about what you can."

A man slips himself indoors with a smile on his face at Adolf's words saying so in a sigh. Adolf glared at the man in front of him, sighing once more in a grand sigh at such a young behavior that he didn't make him feel old.

"... good to have you here, shall I say"

"Fine, okay? You won't even think about it anyway."

"It would be decided in the social dictionary...... and hey, would you like some tea? Two."

Speaking to the secretary of his posture as he remained consolidated, he said, 'We can get out of this place!' I'm just saying - well, make a great smile as usual and the secretary runs after the office with a heartfelt rush. In a small sigh at the figure, Adolf pointed to the reception set in the middle of the office.

"Please take a seat. At your age, you can stand talkin ', right?

"Don't worry about it, will you?

"It's my little old spirit."

"I'm not going to lose to anything younger yet, though?

"Because I can't stand to see an old man feel like a 'young man' forever. Because you" go out "at all times, the King's Palace is said to be second-rate at all times. Please give way to the rear."

"What. I'm on active duty too until Carl quits. Besides, according to your theory, the Kingsguard led by Old Man is also second-rate?

"Rude. Kingsguard and so on."

"Aren't you a good customer?

"That's a different story from this. Well, that story won't matter. So? My lord, what brings you here on purpose?

"Oh? May I? In the 'advance' priority?

Adolphe sighs and shows this gaze at the words of a man like to try.

"... whitewash what. Anyway, it's about you. You must have turned your hand to the Cassandra Chamber of Commerce, right?" Cancel your meeting with Hotel Larchia today "?

"That's a good answer. To be precise, an honor to His Majesty."

"You're going to like it, Cassandra."

"It's a weakly grounded chamber of commerce. His Majesty's memory and visibility are the things he wants more than anything else."

That said, the man gives a single letter from his nostalgia as if he remembered.

"Do you want to see? It's a glitch from Cassandra. It's written with all due respect?

"Please leave it around there. And Cassandra is what made her great, too. I didn't mean to break the interview with me unilaterally and let you even imitate the delivery guy. Hey?"

His Excellency Lotte Baumgarden, and.

"As for the latter, 'which mouth'. You must have brought what His Excellency Lotte Baumgarden brought on purpose."

Without as much wind as I cared for the words, they say so, man - Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Flame, Lotte Baumgarden puts that seal on a desk close by. Without showing any obsession with the letter, which was probably never to be read, Lotte returned her gaze to Adolf.

"As for the former, Lord Adolphe, that is' normal '. It's normal to ask for an interview from Her Majesty the Queen, who is the supreme power in this country. Rather, your hotel Larchia is unusual. Whether you are His Majesty the King, forbid you to go sideways, etc."

"It's a tradition, Hotel Larchia's. If that's what you claim to be unbearable, Your Excellency, please change your royal quarters elsewhere."

"Just kidding. There are no hotels with more amenities and security than this hotel and Larchia. Because the safety of His Majesty cannot be guaranteed in other hotels. I'm not thinking about changing my accommodation."

"Really? It's superimposed."

That's what I always say, staring at each other. Along with the sound of the knock, the secretary, who came with a cup of hot, standing tea, carefully places the tea in front of Lotte, then Adolf. As he gratefully stared at the back of the secretary who walked away, Adolph clasped his shoulders small and took the cup of tea in his hand.

"... so? Shall we get down to business, my lord? The interview with Cassandra flowed, because I still have plans for the next one. Besides, that's the same thing with you, isn't it? I don't think the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Flame is free enough to talk to me in vain?

"Sure, I'm never free either, but I'm going to give you about the time and place to hang up. Well, that would be good. This is the one who interrupted you on your own, so why don't we finish our errands and put them down first?"

With that said, Lotte woke her back up from the back of the chair and looked grand, roughly unworthy of his age.

"- This time, something from our clan seems to have bothered you… I'm so sorry to bother you"

And keep your head down. It was for a moment that he solidified himself in that appearance, Adolf leaning his cup of tea and dampening his mouth.

"... well. What is your apology for?

"An apology for our bouncing silly daughter."

"Can you tell me about Miss Zion? Then apologies are useless. I don't think it's annoying."

"No. You are Adolf Burkhardt. Its body stands at the top of hotels throughout Orkena, supporting Hotel Larchia. I let him use his' time 'for no reason. This deserves an apology enough. That's all you've got."

"... Really? Then let's take it. But I don't think I'm 'careless' about having a conversation with a 'young man'. So really don't worry about it"

"... ok. If that's what Lord Adolph would say, that's fine. Soon, I really wanted to apologize."

That said, Lotte lifts her head. I got a slightly surprised look at the sunny look on my face.

"... Now if you'll excuse me, Lord Adolph. Sorry for the precious time."

Consolidate that look.

"... Lord Lotte?

"Yes?"

"The... apology, is that all?

"Really?

"You came all the way here just to apologize? Until you interrupted Cassandra's appointment? You, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Flame, Lotte Baumgarden?

"It would be suzi to bring Scion to apologize if it were meant to be...... I'm still young too. Because he is an elder of the clan. Instead, I came here to bow my head."

This is a 'rush', Adolf thinks.

This is Lotte Baumgarden, the flame kingdom cutter.

It will be particularly busy in this country, His Excellency the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Flame.

I can't believe I came all this way just to apologize.

"... that's an interesting joke, Lord Lotte"

"I'm not kidding, it's true. Well, especially... If you want to talk about something else, can we talk about it? That time is well secured."

Thoughtful, farce. It's a farce, and that's why.

"... they are still drinking tea too. Wouldn't it be nice if you had a drink on your way home?

That's why it's foolish to 'return' here. If I were to take the words of His Excellency the Chancellor, "Oh, is that right," and return them to par value, it would be Adolf who would laugh. Even Adolf has a face.

"Really? Then let me be sweet and relaxed by your words."

Lifting his hips down, Lotte sinks her body deep into the chair to attract a cup of tea to hand. After narrowing his eyes to a hot sole, Lotte turned his gaze to Adolph.

"Oh. With that said, you hadn't mentioned any words of celebration yet."

"Celebrate?"

"Congratulations to Lord Klaus and Lord Elise on their engagement."

"... oh. Thank you for your kindness. Thank you, My Lord."

"Lord Klaus supported this hotel Larchia for a long time as general manager of the main building. Though young, he's a fine hotelier. I took great care of him when I used this one too. No, I don't know if it's the same age as our Scion, but not that far... I'd love to fry it and drink it even with nail dirt."

"... ha"

Somehow, a conversation that doesn't get the guidelines right. He twisted his neck into the conversation, where Adolf tried to open his mouth.

"- Your Majesty is delighted, Lord Adolphe." It's a pleasure to have talented people continue the trail of the royal hotel Lalchia. "

"... in unbearable terms..."

That's it, talk, notice.

"Or, my lord! No way!"

Hand control Adolph, who can sit back like he panicked.

He said, "If you can, if you're so talented, you must do what you can for your country."

That's what I say, Lotte smiles at Nicole.

"What do you think, Lord Adolph? Just a little to Lord Klaus...... right? Who wants you to 'train' in the King's Palace?

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

Erica Orenfeld van Flame culminates in Liz, who is not part of the 'Flame Royal' where Liz is the only one as it stands, that is, not technically Liz's 'family'.

Writing this way will feel like there is a narrative, but while the legal development of the Kingdom of Flame is a noble blood muscle called King Flame's real sister, Erica is only the head of the 'Duke of Rondo de Terra', that is, under Liz's command. When I was a child, my brother, who was one family member as a child of the same parent, was married and had a different place, but the image is close.

Especially in the current state of Liz, who is single and has no parents, Erica is the 'first child of the pre-Flame King' and the shiny princess who has the number one right to inherit the throne. As the real sister of His Majesty, the young queen, even though she is still out of it, and the forgetful sight of Her Majesty the Imperial Queen, who built two factions within the Royal Castle, the Angelicans, the Lieselottes, not only herself but also the people who work for the Royal Palace against the illustrious Erica are not less popular...

"... hehe. Coata, uh, yeah."

…………

- Well, what do you want to say, the private rooms in the royal castle given to Erica are large enough to be described as' futile 'for use alone. Emili, Kota, Sonia and Ayano and Shion gather together for extra space.

"... uh... Mr. Scion? Oh, that... that's okay, isn't it? Because you can eat alone."

"Ha! Is it lit? It's okay, Coata. I stink, too. It stinks... but it feels good inside."

... Sitting next to Kota in front of me and 'ahem' the egg roll I stabbed in the fork from my lunchbox, what a nightmarish sight, to the extent that I can sit on the opposite couch and look abominable.

"Hey, hey, Scion! What are you doing!

"Hmm? What's up, Master Erica? You look so scared. Beauty ruined it, didn't she? The devil's about to escape barefoot."

"Aku-! Oh, my God, you! Who the devil escapes barefoot, the shapes, who! I 'm-- I'm not! No, why are you doing this to Coata? It's cheating!

Finally, the real deal leaked. but no one noticed that in this obvious "anomaly" in front of me - or blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

"Oh, yeah! So, what are you doing in such a crowded place? I don't know! What the hell is going on here!? Huh? Me, I'm not following the expansion at all!

Ri. Ayano snorted one more time at Ayano's words, and Theon smiled with a lovely smile.

"... heh! It's a secret, it's"

Dye your cheeks just a little, and you still look happy, smile. The look was familiar to four other people besides Theon - that's it. Nothing but "The Maiden in Love".

"Hey, what is that, huh!

"What's up, Princess Sonia? Is there a problem?

"It's been decided! It's settled! Huh? Yeah? Hey, what the hell!

"So what?

"Hey, what... you know... yesterday! What the hell happened yesterday! Ah, Mr. Ayano!

"Huh? Wah, me?

"Yes! I mean, you all said that!?" Scion's date will fail anyway "! What is it, alle! Aren't you a big success!

Erica, Ayano, and Emili lower their eyebrows as if they had trouble forgetting their anger as well as Sonia pointing at Bishi.

"Uh... even if they say so... I don't know what it is... hey Emily?

"I will sit down. I don't know what... Ayano-san?

"Same for both of us. What the hell kind of chemical reaction would be 'oh'..."

"It's not 'Oh will it'! I told you!? Ladies and gentlemen, you said you'd give me your next date! I thought hard! Dating plan for Lady Coata to enjoy! What is it! Now I look like an idiot!

"No... you mean stupid..."

Take a breath.

"... clowns?

"Mr. Ayano!?

"Uh... sorry, bad words"

If anyone is angrier than themselves, surprisingly, people can be calm. As if to embody the word, Ayano turned her gaze to Zion as she exhaled. Though it is in my heart and my eyes.

"Erm... so, Theon? What are you doing, you?"

"Even your eyes have gone bad, Miss Ayano"

"I know you're doing 'ahem' to Kota. It doesn't mean why you're doing it."

"Why, I don't care... I came to make lunch for Coata, because Coata said she was working in Erica's room in the morning. I want to eat with you because it's a corner... and I wanted to try 'ahem'. That's why I visited Erica's room."

"No, that's why! No, why did you give me lunch?"

Talking that far, Ayano cuts his words.

"... Huh? That lunch... you made it?

"Yeah, but?

"Oh yeah... what are you thinking, you!?

"... what, noisy. Don't shout because your ears hurt."

"Don't shout, it's not! Your dishes are biohazards, dangerous materials, sealed designations, biological weapons! Well, we've got a little time, but Kota's still busy! He said he'd be in trouble if he fell!

Ayano's screaming woods spirits regardless of the wide indoors. To the words, Theon opened his mouth with a look that just said 'I'm not serious'.

"Don't be rude. I'm well aware of Coata's busy schedule."

"Then why are you making lunch?! Are you going to kill Kota?

"... overlapping rude guy, you too. You don't have to worry. I guarantee the flavor... and this time there's no dangerous stuff in it. By the way, did you even taste it?

"Taste it... Huh? Seriously?

"Seriously. You know what I mean when I'm pimping, right?

That's what I said, Scion, who makes a force tumor out of his arm opposite the hand he's doing 'ahem' and shows it in motion. Ayano continued his words with a stunned look on his face.

"... what kind of change of heart is that?

"I told you earlier, didn't I? I know Coata's busy, and I know she'll be in trouble if she falls. Then I know you need a 'safe' meal... and"

"... and?

Just a few words clogged Ayano's expression as he remained surprised, and turned to Soppo as illuminated.

"... oh, it's delicious... you want me to tell you"

"" "" Yes, DOUT!!

"Nah! Duh, what do you mean!

"Yes, Dout! Erica, this must be Scion's fake! Take me right away!

"Okay, ayano!

"... you really sat down, Master Sonia. That one is a fake of Master Theon."

"Ugh... I wondered what I was going to do, me. Good......"

"Oh, the guy named you guys... what! You're gonna tell me it's weird if I think so!

"" "." That's weird, isn't it?

"Don't get hammered!

Scion stood up and stuffed into four with his shoulders angry. and the noise of the knock sounds indoors as well as time. After Erica's voice, 'Go ahead,' the door to the room opened reluctantly.

"Excuse me, Master Erica. Here's your sister. - Oh, sister! I finally found it! I told you I have an important meeting today! What are you skipping!

"Ah, Aria! Hey, wait! I'm not skipping! Oh, well, I have a little business to attend to!

"An errand? An errand that takes precedence over a meeting... Ah! Speaking of which, sister, I hear you've been buying vegetables in the morning. Right? What is it? What is it?

"Nah! How the hell does Aria know that!

"... vegetables? What's that, Aria?

"Oh, Master Erica. No, usually because if I thought my sleepy sister woke up rarely early in the morning, I would have gone somewhere else. I was wondering what was going on - but the shopkeeper that I went to when I got out of town told me. Earlier, your sister bought an egg roll."

In that word of Aria, the gaze of Ayano, Erica, Emili, and Sonia is poured into the 'egg grill' at the end of the fork held by Zion. Zion hid a fork on his back, turning to Soppo, as he sluggishly shed a cold sweat in that gaze.

"... wow, I said I made 'lunch'! I didn't cook 'em!

"Mr. Holiday! Who told you to tonch!

"Ugh, I'm not throwing up! I guarantee the taste, and there's no dangerous stuff in there! Have a good taste! Holla, I know you're not lying!

"It's worse than lying! Hota, even Hota thinks so!

"Ko, it would be cheating to ask Kota! Oh, no, Coata! Today, yesterday, I couldn't raise my cooking arm to a boulder! But even I... I wanted to do something for you! Oh, well... I apologize for the glory! Because I apologize! Don't despise me!

Scion pleads with Kota in tears by accident. Ayano screams with his eyes round at the appearance.

"Who are you really, you!? What? Why do people change so much in one day!

"Don't you know, Miss Ayano? Change people... what is love"

"A catch copy of the liquor! I mean, what, 'love'! There are so many competitors, don't come out now!

"Oh, yeah! What are you talking about now, you! Nothing. You said you weren't attracted to Coata as a man!

"Oh yes, I will sit down!

"Oh, yeah! Mr. Zion, I'd like to introduce you to the lovely lords of Solvania! So please don't give up Mr. Coata!

"... you guys, come on. Especially Princess Sonia. It would be too belly black!

"Ko, love is war!

"Even so, there will be about a rule!

Wow, wow, wow, wow. Running his gaze at the noisy five, then Kota exhales softly so he can't hear. And there was a hand that was gently placed on its shoulder. It's Aria.

"... Mr. Coata..."

"... Aria?

Aria showing her head shaking left and right with an adult attitude, not suitable for her appearance. He seems to be giving me some comfort, and Kota stuck with a grin on his face.

"It's hot. Hey! I can't believe five women took care of me... isn't that a man's dream!

I can float around and pull that grin in. Apparently, he's not sympathetic at all.

"... the training ground! You're a shrub! Uh... I've only seen books... and now I have a training center like that in front of me!

Nose teasing is - a breathing aria. Look at that, just a little sad.

"... I mean, Mina. Let's get to work. Mr. Lotte, I'm sure you'll do your best."

Kota sighed heavily at the five people who kept making noise and one with a rough nose, as if it were now time to hear them.
