The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)

"Sire, hurry up!

"Hey, hey!

As Kota draws her hand, Liz runs through the royal castle, which she is used to seeing. If a maid with a royal castle sees it, she's going to scream and fall, behave roughly to a lady, or herself that the queen doesn't deserve, but it kind of seems like something terribly unrealistic that her actions are like in a dream. No explanation, no time to wake you up from your sleeping bed and scream, 'I'm running away!' I'm also somewhat angry that he keeps getting his hands on me.

"Mama... Matsuyo-sama! What! What the hell is going on!

So Liz pays such Hota's hand to show it. I can see that things that would be happening right now are not normal in Kota's desperate shape, and I can imagine that it would be good to hear anger like the roar of a beast from afar and the sound of a high 'kin' that would have cut a sword together.

"I am Elizabeth Orenfeld Flame, the fifty-second king of the Kingdom of Flame! This Royal Castle of Larchia is the house where I was born and raised, and the Lord of this Castle is me!

But still.

"Explain what's going on in this castle right now because it's short and good! Otherwise, the escape is stopped here!

Still, as the lord of this castle - above all, as Her Majesty the Queen, Liz does not 'yes' to flee only. It is no exaggeration to say that the blood of his father, and of his father, and of his father, and of the successive 'Royal Flame', will make him do so.

"Master Matsuyoshi! Explain!"

As if to stare, Liz says so and turns her gaze to Kota. Kouta breathed heavily and spinned her words into that gaze and behavior that made her unwittingly want to tongue.

"... There's a 'thief' breaking into this castle"

Cruel, words.

"I'm not sure what the aim is. But, Your Majesty. He's like coming all the way into Flame Royal Castle. It is very likely that you are not being targeted… rather than…. So we are not afraid to evacuate to a safe place. Did you understand that?

There's no way you can understand. Like eating a bubble, Liz pulled over with a momentum that just grabbed onto Kota's tie.

"What do you mean?! Hey, why would a thief break into this castle! Oh, yes! The Kingsguard! The Kingsguard Knights!

"There's a big enough hall for a dance party, isn't there? Over there, the Kingsguard knights who first left Mr. Carl inside the royal castle are packed. The number is about thirty…"

There, take a breath. He hesitated just a little, whether to say it or not, and Kota still continued his words.

"… there is currently a massive fire on East Street. The city's guards are not enough, and they have dispatched Kingsguard knights to extinguish fire, and turn to policing activities. The number of Kingsguard knights in the Royal Castle is extremely low."

"So, are you okay!

"... I don't know. We don't know the exact number of thieves, nor the power of the Kingsguard knights..."

"The Kingsguard is the weakest of the entire army of the Kingdom of Flame."

……

Carl's words come to mind. Even if not, it was originally the Kingsguard Knights gathered in "Looking and Focusing on Patterns". It is even hilarious to think that each and every one of us is a thousand soldiers on one horse, passing hopeful observations.

"... Anyway, the Kingsguard knights are determined to fight thieves in the Great Hall to protect you, Your Majesty. So you do your job, and you do your job of running away."

Do you understand me? I can't ask you to hang the word this time. With his hands pulled hard as he shrugged, Liz hung again in the royal castle with Hota - his head not turning gradually dropped its rust due to a movement called the Marathon in the royal castle, dull, and sure to start turning.

"... ah... thief?

... Why?

This is the castle of Larchia in the heart of Larchia, the king capital of the kingdom of Flame. It is a millennial castle that has long flourished not only as Flame, but also as the centre of the continent of Orkena.

... in that castle, thief?

Impossible. You can't have that. Because this is the Royal Castle of Larchia, and it was the Alex Emperor who built this castle, the 'catachism' of this country, of this continent. This is the capital of Emperor Alex. In the heart of the capital, there must be no imitation of being trampled on with earthfoot without respect. Angry, angry, remembering so much anger that his bowels are about to boil back, Liz still quietly unloads that hoard. Even if you behave disrespectfully, Your Majesty. Her Majesty the Queen should not and should not do anything to disturb her lightly.

"... in the first place"

In the first place, there was no need to be angry, and Liz utters a lovely, peppery tongue inside. Yes, it does make me angry that I was grounded in this royal castle of Larchia for a thousand years. I'm angry, but I don't need to be that angry.

……

'Cause there's Lotte. A rare loyal minister, Lotte Baumgarden, who has supported this country as Chancellor since his father's king's reign.

"... Your Majesty, raise your speed a little - Your Majesty?

Lotte would have handled it cleverly. It exorcises the thief who broke into the Royal Castle of Larchia. No, it's a thief who broke into the Royal Castle of Larchia. It's not just a city burglar collapse, I'm sure you have organized involvement. Lotte drags me out to its mastermind, exposes me under the day, and hunts down its mastermind, and necessarily 'interests' me in the kingdom of Flame. So, there's nothing to worry about.

"... that?

That's all I can think about - and notice the discomfort.

……

Something very, very important.

Not that I don't know, I don't.

It's not like I can't remember, I can't.

I can't believe I forgot.

I just wanted to do something that wasn't there - and I can't do that.

".................. ah"

- Liz perceives the fact that Lotte Baumgarden is no longer in the world.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

"Heh, Your Majesty!

In an unexpectedly resurrected memory, Liz kneels down to the spot, paying Kota's hand. From his eyes, he stared at Kota in the same position as he did with tears in his eyes.

"No more... I don't like it anymore!

There's a scream that spits blood.

"Why! Why is this happening? What the hell did I do!

Later on, it leaks through Liz's throat like she cut a weir. Liz continued her words as the yarn she was straining sliced into her pussy.

"Lotte, trusted, lost a very important minister, and now thief to the royal castle? Why is this happening? I... I am!

Squatting, leaking whimpers Liz. With that figure staring from the top, Kouta looks for words to hang - and he can't find the words and shuts up.

"... why... why..."

Because as head of state, as queen, I can't find the words to hang on to that year-to-year figure that Liz has shown, who continues to stand at the top of the state, bent over and lived worthy of that status.

"… Your Majesty"

"It's been so hard... so sad... already! No more, I can't 'run'!

That must be in the true words of Liz, who has always come 'running' as queen.

"And your father! And your mother! And Lotte! Carl too! Everyone I trust and trust has passed away! Even your sister has been in Terra forever! I'm all alone! I'm all alone!

……

"Suppose you survive dirty, and so what? I don't have anybody else! In a world like that, I can't live and go by myself! I can't believe we're running this country without Lotte and Carl... I can't do that! No more... no more, I can't! So...... so!

- If it's so hard, it's better to die, he said.

"... Hmm"

Hearing a whimpering voice that leaks later, Kota puts her hand on her chin and thinks in. In that space where you can hear anger and the sound of a sword trident, think in roughly out of place posture.

"... I see, I understand"

"... I hope you're convinced. Okay, Matsuyo-sama. Leave me here and get out of here."

"I'm not convinced. Just understand."

"- Crumbs... Huh?

To Kota's words, Liz looks up with tears in her eyes. With that figure in his sight, Kota continued his words.

"I'm not convinced... well, I'm saying I understand. I've heard a lot about the clogging, the fact that His Majesty is not confident of fulfilling her duties as Her Majesty the Queen, as it stands, without anyone's help, right? And as long as you live in a world like that, it's better to die," he said.

"Huh!"

"Oh, excuse me. I'm not blaming you. I know exactly what you're saying. Mr. Lotte drank a lot of boiling water for me, too. After the death of Lotte Baumgarden, such a great prime minister, we need to be confident that we're going to cut this country up by ourselves... well, that's the thing, isn't it?

……

"... Your Majesty?

"... do you laugh? Said she was a pitiful queen."

"Laugh?"

To Liz's words, Kota twisted her neck in the wind that she said, "I don't know."

"You won't laugh. Instead, you should be worried about saying 'it's okay for one person'. I thought you were abandoning yourself."

"... Huh?

"Japan… In the world I lived in, people of your age generally attend a place called 'High School', a high school student. Under parental asylum, it's my job to study... Is it close to a private school, here? Well, I'm a student there. I know it's not a good idea to put it this way, but it's good to say that there are no great responsibilities, no great obligations, of course there are no human beings who cut up the operation of a single country by themselves. They are often just young people who are allowed to live irresponsibly."

……

"His Majesty, who is such a 'young man', lost a man who admired him like his grandfather, and allowed thieves to enter his castle, didn't he? Whatever the protagonist of the story, if His Majesty, a man of blood, stood unbroken in this situation, it would be more creepy."

Just a little, flashy Liz. Without taking his gaze off his appearance, Kota also opens his mouth.

"And unfortunately, Your Majesty, as things stand, I have no ability to put up such a compelling argument as to excite you, nor am I confident to persuade you. Again, I can't give you a strong enough word to run forward. I'm not a brave man, just as I'm not sure you're going to do it alone as Her Majesty."

He's the only banker, so laugh.

"The truth is, it would be best if I could persuade and arouse you like the protagonist of the story, but unfortunately, as I said earlier, I'm not sure about that. Nor can I say 'I will help you on behalf of Mr Lotte'. Because I don't think we're building more trust than you and Mr. Lotte had at the moment. Your Majesty would have trouble telling me that, too, wouldn't he?

Liz's eyes shake. Haota smiled bitterly at the colour of confusion that made it true what Haota said and still found it rude to admit it.

"Naturally, you don't have to worry about it. And that's the same for Mr. Erica. He's sweet, and he'll love you very much. If Your Majesty is in trouble, he may stay in the royal castle until this' anomaly 'is resolved to help you. But, Your Majesty? Mr. Erica will definitely return to Terra one day. Because I'm the lord of Terra. Then, Your Majesty, you are alone again."

"... ah"

"Competently, I'm alone no matter what I grow up to or where I go. It was often said in my industry that business is a lonely thing, but in terms of 'running' a nation, Your Majesty, you will always have to face and fight loneliness. And I'm sure it's very hard, very sad, very difficult."

Talk that far, take a breath.

"- So I said I could understand that you wanted to throw the responsibility of Her Majesty the Queen. If this is all bad luck, I understand your desire to throw it out."

"… then, please also convince me. And leave me alone!

"I can't."

"Why!"

Liz's dialogue like eating it. Kouta was taunted by the words.

"I understand you throw your duty as Her Majesty the Queen... as Elizabeth Orenfeld Flame... because I cannot accept throwing my life as a single girl"

"... Huh?

"It's an irresponsible and extreme word, but if your duty as Her Majesty the Queen is strict, you should throw it and treat it. I'm not as familiar with the history of the Flame kingdom as I am with the left... but all His Majesty the King has troubled, scratched and still desperately scratched his feet to carry out his affairs? I find it disturbing to disparage His Majesty and Erica's ancestors, but wasn't there a king who lived in relaxation with little talk of government?

"Oh, that's... that's..."

"Will you be there?

"So, but! You can't do that!

"Let us use the words precisely, Your Majesty. It's not" I can't ". I just don't do it. Regardless, in a good way."

Talking that far, Kota cuts his words and peeks into Liz's eyes.

"... you should make 'do' and 'don't' decisions sometimes. But I think it's a little different to decide from the edge that 'I can't'. If you don't do that, if you don't do this, then you can carry everything in on your own...... well, I can't say it's generally bad because pressure can sometimes nurture people, but it doesn't seem like a very mental health preferred way to do it. Because I believe that the most important quality of management is the Rakuten family. Fortunately, the kingdom of Flame would have an excellent bureaucracy, the 'King's Palace', wouldn't it?

"... Yes"

"Why don't we delegate authority where we can and raise a subordinate who can be 'trusted' little by little? Well... it's a little hard to say."

"... say it"

"... this has unfortunately happened... but I am sure that Mr. Lotte will pass away before His Majesty. There is an absolute age difference that cannot be overridden."

……

"… so sooner or later I think this' result 'is something you will visit"

Tears seep into Liz's eyes. Eventually, thinking for a few seconds about the tears flowing out of his eyes, Kouta wiped Liz's tears with her right index finger still firmly as she lingered for just a little while.

"... you said it, Mr. Lotte. 'Happy or not'. I don't think Mr. Lotte wanted His Majesty to suffer. I'm not Mr. Lotte, so I don't know... but I'm sure if I were to risk my life worrying about my duties as queen, I'd just stop being queen and say 'live', wouldn't you?

Whatever, Your Majesty, I love you, Mr. Lotte, so I laugh. Liz sighed as if she was frightened.

"... that's sweet, Matsuyo-sama"

"Sweet, is it?

"It's about Lotte." Do you have a problem? Now, let me give you a job as long as you don't have time to worry about it. "

"That's... oh, no. Sounds possible."

"It's been decided that there is. Lotte."

That said, Liz lowered her head to Kota after laughing strangely.

"... made me waste my time. It's okay now. Because I don't know what Lotte would say if I stuck it in the hands of a thief. Let us live and let us see."

"... right. I'm sure they'll say bad things. Oh, my God, it's Mr. Lotte."

"Yeah, it's Lotte."

Again, after laughing out loud, Liz sees Kota flickering with a slight smell of light. Kota, who noticed the gaze, tilted his neck small and showed it.

"What's up?

"That... I'm sorry. What could possibly be the Queen of the Flame kingdom… that, such a pitiful weakness."

……

"... Honestly, I'm still lost, and I'm very scared. I remember being scared to run this country by myself. But... I can't believe it, I'm going to live to see it. It's only after that that I make a weak noise."

To Liz like that, Kota turned to her tender eyes.

"Even the queen is human, Your Majesty. If it's hard, one or two of the weak sounds, if it's zero, isn't it good?"

That's about it, after laughing to ask at any time, Hota gives Liz her hand.

"Come on, Your Majesty? We don't have much time. Please, give me your hand."

"Thank you, Matsuyo-sama"

Liz's hand overlaps Kota's hand, which she offered. I smiled a small bitter smile at Liz with such a superb grin, as if she had blown it off somewhere, and Hota was about to pull that hand and run out.

"-! What... Oh! Your Majesty, you're safe! And Mr. Coata!

I saw a shadow running from across the aisle. For a moment, that shadow, which stopped like a fright, exhales when he admits that it is Hota and Liz who are there.

"Aria!"

"Mr. Aria! Good, you're safe!

Breathing with his shoulders, the shadow nodded cocklessly - to Aria, a joyous voice rises from Liz and Hota. On that voice, Aria had a face that seemed only happy for a moment, but soon the face turned into a look full of impatience.

"Mr. Aria? What the hell..."

"Mr. Coata!

"- Did you... Eh, close! Mr. Aria, it's close!

As the tip of his nose sticks, Aria leaps into Kota's chest like a puppy, pointing her moist eyes at him. Kota blushed her cheeks at my distance.

"- Your sister... your sister! Mr. Coata, please! Please help your sister!

From the blushing cheeks, the heat drew all at once.
