"What I did, ah..."
I gazed at the diagonal ceiling and rebuffed the words of the leaf.
With a vague murmur, I stroke the head of the leaf lying beside me. His hair, unconsciously stroking, is soft, and his temperature is higher than mine.
Every once in a while, the sleep you can hear is adorable.
After giving me his advice and his own thoughts, he fell asleep as if giving me time to think on my own.
"I want to. I shouldn't..."
I put my back of hand on my forehead and said, "Hmm."
I want to laugh with everyone in the atelier and run the shop.
... if you ask me what I want to do, I want to protect everyone's smile.
Marcus, Mina, Ariel, Look, Wuwen. And Peter and Alice.
Everyone in the field is important.
Green fairies centered on Rico. To Mr. Mandragora, the tree of the world. And a variety of materials to help me.
I want my family to laugh.
Father, mother, oniisama. And little Lily.
I want the servants headed by Sebastian and Kate to smile as well.
Royalty and people working in castles.
To Her Majesty the Queen, whom I have watched since I was five years old. And Her Royal Highness the Prince and Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Heinrich, an appraiser, meets with the Warlords, the Treasurer, and the Chancellor.
So are the people of King's Landing.
Anna, Lynn, and Drag.
Commercial guilds.
Although I haven't seen her recently, Marilyn, the owner of the cute adventurer's clothes, her mother, Barbara, and her sister (?) Mrs Diana.
Lara and Lulu's sisters in yarn stitching and weaving.
Yes, some of the people who lived in this country we met a long time ago when we were mining materials.
Villagers from Look's hometown and the town to the south where they played in the sea.
"I wonder if I can protect everyone's smile..."
I murmur as I think of people's faces.
An alchemist, who understands the laws of nature and converts the value of what is in nature into something more useful. I think that "alchemist" can be called "natural magician".
Oh, I'm a little off the point.
"I want to protect everyone."
But I'm only one of the alchemists.
Can you do such a big thing to me?
I muttered in the bed, where there was only a small leaf nearby.
The leaf licked my cheek like that.
"Can you do it or not?"... don't give up easily or make up your mind. "
So he was beside my head, and he moved to my side.
It's like an armpit.
“Yeah, don't give up, I'll figure out how to do it.”
"That seems to be Daisy-sama."
We laughed together, and I fell asleep again.
◆
I woke up because the sound of knocking on the door made the reef wake up vigilant.
I woke up to the stimulus of the cold air entering the gap as the overhead lifted up.
Daisy, are you awake?
The voice that could be heard from the other side of the door belonged to oniisama.
"After the training, I came to pay my respects. Are you okay now?"
Next, onee-sama's voice was heard as well.
“Yes, that's fine. Thank you for your consideration.”
Yes, the door opens when I answer. At the same time, the leaf jumped to the floor.
From the open door, oniisama came in first, and oniisama closed the door.
"I was surprised when your father brought Daisy home."
“It's true, Daisy didn't seem to wake up all alone.”
Having said that, they walked towards my bed.
"I'm sorry to bother you. I ate some porridge a while ago."
I smile and tell them that I want to look good.
The two sat down with their chairs pulled together beside their beds.
“Well, it's good to be motivated to eat.”
Oniisama smiled relieved.
It looks like my complexion is getting better than it was then.
Onee-sama stepped forward and peered into my face, relieving her expression.
Um, Daisy.
Yes.
"We were told by my father that 'the problem Daisy is having right now is not that she can talk to me lightly.'"
Oniisama tells me as he lowers his eyebrows.
... that's right. It's a national secret that there could be a war.
"That's right, so without your father's permission, I won't even be able to get a ride with you."... even though I'm sorry as a sister. "
Onee-sama bit her pretty lips lightly.
But (right)! We're on your side!
Yes, the two of us told each other, and the two of us held my hand.
"Oniisama, oniisama..."
Still, their feelings were warm and joyful, and I felt tears seep into their eyes.
"... thank you"
That said, I clenched their hands back.
