The Evil Queen’s Beautiful Principles

My name is Alicia. Alicia Nichols.

I have been working as a maid at the royal palace for two years since my wish came true.

"... oh, Alicia. What's going on here? It's not unusual for you to be in the servant's quarters while you're at work."

A colleague who was in the hallway called me and stopped.

"Good day, Freesia. When I was helping set up the ceremonial venue in my spare time, my clothes got dirty... so I went back to change."

"How much time do you have to work? You really like work, don't you?... I appreciate your help in setting up the venue. It won't be long now."

"I can't thank you... For Luceria's sake, it's only natural.... but since I can't use magic, I can only clean the corners and prepare the decorations."

Many wizards serve this royal palace, but unfortunately I can't use magic.

No... it's magical, to be exact, but I can't use it as magic.

"Oh, that kind of work is very helpful because you have manpower.... and yet, even though it's not your job to set up... I'm not diligent."

"What are you talking about!? It's Master Luxeria's wedding! It's only natural that I should help you satisfy Master Luxeria."

"... you really love Luxeria."

I open my mouth with my chest wide open to a colleague who looks stunned.

"Yeah, I love it! I thought I had been born to serve him since I first met him. In fact, if you serve, be very kind. Besides, that beauty! I'm really happy to serve you. The other day, when I was talking to Lucelia in the library....."

It was only a year ago that I was promoted to the side of Master Luxeria.

The shock of our first encounter is still unforgettable.

I really thought I was born to serve this person.

"Yes, I know exactly how much you admire Luceria.... hey, are you in a hurry? Why don't you go?

"No! I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry."

I haven't been able to tell you enough about Luxeria's beauty, but I can't help it.

Instead, I have to get back so I don't have to keep you waiting...!

"Don't run in the castle! Also, the upper aristocracy want the royal castle, so please don't look coarse!

"I know!

After leaving the servants' quarters, I stopped running and walked quickly to Luxeria's room.

The Royal Palace has a distinct hierarchy within which access is permitted depending on its purpose.

The royal settlement is the deepest... commonly known as the Okunomiya.

And in front of it is the Nakamiya (Chunomiya), where only the nobles are allowed to stop by, mainly for royal tea parties and parties.

And in front of it is Omotenomiya, where the bureaucrats work.

Since I am with Lucería, of course, I am allowed to enter all areas.

The privilege was used to sew the garden directly from the servant's building to the Okunomiya.

It's about time we got between Nakamiya and Okumiya... that's where it happened.

"... but the Radford family did well, didn't they?"

I see. As long as I envy an old boy who happens to be born with "The Puppet Princess." We're related to the royal family anyway. "

I ran into two aristocrats and lovely men who spoke in the hallway.

The name "doll princess" that one of them used to say... is the name that refers to Luceria.

Its origins are by no means good.

That's the meaning of contempt.

"A puppet with no strength as a king" in "Just beautiful".

Since when does that name seem to have been given to Luceria with such a meaning?

And he listened to his abominable name, and aggressively hid himself in the tree of the garden.

"I also nod that Lord Vixen has been instrumental in rooting each house. If I were in the same position, it would have been a sham."

Vixen became the father of Wilhelm Radaford, the fiancée of Luceria, and the Marquis of Radaford, one of the five grand marquises.

Only Lucería remains in the royal lineage... meaning that no matter what happens, Lucería will take over the throne.

The husband is a king. The man who stopped the seat will soon have a great deal of voice and power in his house.

And it was Vixen who won the seat.

"Hahaha... that's right. Anyway, the opponent is that" doll princess ". A royal royalty who does not know what the king's duty is, and cannot even put forth a treasure sword. Well, that beauty... it would be nice to leave it on the side as a decoration."

"I don't know who started it, but it's odd to call it a doll princess."

"Dear Left, a beautiful doll bears the real power of this country. It's not impossible for each house to regret it."

"In fact, the Radford family is already gaining influence. I came to say hello as soon as I entered King's City."

You too. Neither do I. "

I was staring at the two people passing by laughing.

... oh, no.

My anger doesn't go away.

The moment they completely disappeared, the ground swayed around me.

"Hey, hey! What's wrong with you?

The moment the piscilli and the ground broke, the gardener rushed over noticing the anomaly.

In a moment, the magic that was floating around me was scattered.

"Oh... I'm sorry, Tommy."

After my reaction, the gardener... Tommy was slightly relieved.

Did you let the magic run away again?

"Yes, because... the people who just passed through there were saying terrible things to Luceria!?... I can't forgive you."

I remembered the scene and even the feelings of anger, and there was a slight magic leak around me again.

In response, Tommy opens his mouth as he waves up and down in front of his body.

I see.... but you and I won't be able to testify alone, will we? Above all, now that the nobles are gathered in this kingdom, I'm afraid we will hear the same words dozens of times from now on. Do you let magic run wild every time?

The power of the royal family has certainly weakened during teenagers.

... Instead, it is the power of each aristocrat, led by the five Grand Marquises.

It is impossible to hear royalty in the imperial castle.

But the royal power is weakening as it passes.

And it has become a well-known fact that even if you work for the royal palace, even a single servant can understand it.

"Ugh... Well, I think it's my fault."

"... but it's strange. You can't use any magic, but only magic. When you get angry, the magic runs wild.... the powder magazine. Well, I know that Alicia's serious anger is related to Master Luxeria, so it won't hurt us, but you should be careful."

"Yeah... that's right. Be especially careful until the ceremony. Sorry, Tommy. More work."

"It's good. I'm a good gardener with a little magic. I can fix it right now."

To play with and invite laughter, the laughter came up honestly.

"Thank you... then I have to go."

"Whoa, watch your liver for what I just said."

"Yeah."

Before I left, I thanked Tommy again and left.
