The storm-like chairman and Mr. Rodis have passed and peace has returned to me.

"That's amazing ... I was as stupid as my dad ..."

"That's true."

Peria's father, King Gris-Vesteria, also had considerable child anguish.

The chairman's father is also pretty.

(... No, maybe a father with a daughter might be such a creature)

I took a break and looked around slowly.

(... there are really many people)

Person wearing samurai costume.

Person who wears an unusual tricolor dress that is obviously not from this country.

Persons with big white hats, preferred by southern hunters.

The venue was very exotic.

Then I was looking at Kyoro Kyoro and the surroundings-a person in a clearly floating costume jumped into my eyes.

"That's ... Crown?"

There was Mr. Crown-Jester, branch director of the Orest branch.

(But great ...)

Even though there is no dress code, there is no way to go to the Keishinkai where Tenshi is present with the usual flashy clown costume.

It's really a bohemian.

"I'm sorry, let's go for a greeting?"

When I tried to go one step forward,

"... Wait a minute and look next to Crown."

Lear muttered with a serious expression like never before.

"Next to Crown ...?"

When I moved my gaze a little to the side, there was Rize, dressed in the usual red kimono.

"I'm sorry, but let's say hello to another opportunity. You shouldn't be involved with 'Blood Fox' ..."

Peria said, she shook her head a little.

(Ummm ...)

As Mr. Leia said one day, Rize's reputation does not seem to be very good.

(I'm a very good person ...)

If I think that,

"――Oh, do you have Allen-kun?"

Mr. Rize, who noticed this, brought her with her.

"Well, I found it ..."

Peria frowned openly.

She still has a rich expression.

"-Mr. Rize, Mr. Crown. Happy new year."

"……happy New Year"

When I and Lear greeted the New Year, they returned in the same way.

"Well, anyway ... It's going to be one year to be able to meet Allen early in the new year."

Mr. Rize, who was in a good mood, stared at him with his fox-like eyes.

"Ah, I'm very happy to see Rize."

"Oh, yeah ...? I can't help telling you what I'm glad ..."

She deflects her gaze to the side while hiding her mouth with her fan.

There, Mr. Crown put his usual light mouth.

"Yeah, Rize-san ... what are you really doing? You have decided to make such a flattering ...?

At the next moment, he suddenly pressed his chest and began to suffer.

"Hey, Crown !?"

He turned his face blue and grabbed Rize's sleeve while shaking his neck.

Apparently you can't breathe.

"Well, Crown .... Your mouth is evil.

The terrifying frozen sound was heard, and Crown shook his head several times.

Then right after that,

"―― Ha ha ha ?? ha ha ha ... Oh, ha ha ... As usual, it's unforgiving ..."

He was released from some sort of “power” and smiled with a rough breath.

"Huh, shy .... I don't like to hate it ... on purpose (...)?"

"Ah ... did you do that?"

"Naturally, I can't breathe (...), but (...), so you can't suffer."

I think you usually suffer ...

After all, Crown seems to be not just like Rize.

"How was it actually? I thought it was a pretty good performance ...?"

"Well, about three points."

"Oh, what's the perfect score?"

"Aho, a thousand points."

"Oh, it's tough again ..."

They were laughing happily.

It was a very unique worldview.

Maybe Rize and Crown have been around for a long time.

(But ... I don't know (...)

It is certain that the phenomenon mentioned earlier was due to Rize's “power”.

(This is the second time to see her power, following the Datong Festival, but ...)

Everybody has no idea what kind of ability it is.

"Well--I'm gonna be rude now."

Perize hit her hand with a fan and turned her eyes toward the exit.

"Well, are you already back?"

"I've already said hello to Tenshi-sama, and we'll be waiting for the next business talk. I'll be free today."

She shook her hand so small

"I'm going to have a meeting at the Arest branch later ... I'll let you go back here!"

Following that, Mr. Crown bowed small.

"I see. Work, do your best."

"Hey, big"

"I appreciate your concern!"

They left Leanguard Palace.

Then, the rear, who was silent until a while ago, opens his mouth.

"Kicking Tenshi-sama's open ceremony ... You're quite fat."

"Ah, it's like those two."

Anyway, just after a break,

"That's ... Tenshi-sama?"

A beautiful woman with a large number of escorts slowly walked here.

(That face, I've seen it in the newspaper ... undoubtedly, Wendy-Leangard ...

Tenshi governing the Leanguard Empire-Wendy-Leanguard.

I'm definitely 15 years old, just like me.

Pale pink beautiful hair that extends to the back.

Height is just about the same as the rear, maybe around 165 cm.

Perfect style without imperfections.

Gentle look like an angel.

Pure white dress with exposed shoulder opening.

At the age of ten, she inherited her position from her predecessor, Tenshi-sama.

She slowly walked here, and ...

"Oh ... you're Allen-Roadle?"

I stopped right before my feet.

"Yes, yes ..."

Unexpectedly, I could only respond hard.

"Fufu, don't be so clever. Because today is a great Keishinkai,"

"Oh, thank you ..."

So after talking to Tenshi for the first time,

"The kingdom of Vesteria is the first princess, Leah-Vesteria. Thank you for inviting me today, Keishinkai."

Peria gracefully greeted her with a princess-like, respectable behavior.

"The Leanguard Empire is Tenshi, Wendy-Leangard. Thank you for your trip."

Then, “Princess” and “Tenshi” exchanged greetings,

"-Hey, Allen-sama? If not, why don't you talk with yourself a little?"

Suddenly she said something ridiculous.

(Just joking ...?)

What is the story of the king of a country talking to ordinary citizens like me?

But the opponent is the top of this country-Tenshi-sama.

I can't help refusing her invitation.

"Yes, yes .. If you like it, by all means."

"Well, thank you!"

Tenshi smiles like a flower blooms,

"-Sorry, Mr. Leah. Can I borrow Allen for a short while?"

This time, he said to the rear with an apologetic expression.

"Eh, yeah, that's fine ..."

She is a princess, not a king yet.

I couldn't refuse the request from Tenshi-sama.

So I ended up talking with Tenshi-sama alone.

"-Lear, we'll return as soon as we're done, so just wait a bit."

"U, yeah ..."

I broke up with Leah with an anxious look and moved to the second floor of Leanguard Palace with Tenshi.

During that time, a tremendous number of curiosity gazes pierce your back.

"Oh, hey, uh ... Tenshi-sama is walking alone with no man-no escort !?"

"Wait a minute ... uh. He's ..." Allen-Roadle! "

"Is it Allen-Roadl .... According to rumors, it seems that he's recently dyed his hand in" darkness ... ". He has a deep connection with that blood fox ..."

"Well, have you connected the pipe to there already !? How fast is it?"

"It's better not to get involved with him anyway ..."

I'm hearing you ...

Apparently, my bad rumors seemed to have crossed the swordsman school.

Probably it will be difficult to get rid of it.

(Huh, why is this ...?)

When I'm sighing like that,

"-Well, Allen. It's a room with nothing, but please come in."

Tenshi said so and opened the door in front of him.

"Oh, thank you ..."

Then, when you enter the room, it's a very ordinary room.

Only the minimum necessary furniture, such as a chest, is placed on the bed.

"Tenshi-sama, what about this place?"

Then when I tried to ask a question.

Kachari- and the hard sound that can be locked sounded.

(…… that ?? maybe …… were you trapped?)

It was somehow, but I had a very bad feeling.

"Tenshi-sama ...?"

Then when you call out terribly,

"-Fufu, we can talk with each other at last. Allen-Rodol?"

Tenshi, who had sharp eyes and a bitter atmosphere, lifted the corner of the mouth.
