I can't even use the word 'safely' in flattery, it caused all kinds of turmoil and still managed to end the night club. Speaking of a definite harvest, Deanna is only about as close as I could possibly get to Shayla as' Dee '. Well, I'm sure that's big.

After the night club, just Deanna was tired, and the conversation with Rita dived into the bedroom there. The competent samurai seemed to have no spare time in gathering information, even while the Lord was resting.

"It seems that Master Shayla hasn't spread that far in the rear palace yet. Rather, so far, last night's" The Great Failure of Red Roses "is more noisy in conservatives."

"You're on target. If I did all that, as a 'peony', I'd be attacking dressed up."

"But it's not like there's no musical sharp at all. It's only a matter of time before Shayla gets noticed and the truth brightens."

"... you can't leave me alone."

The morning the night of the night club dawned. In a room where Rita and I were alone by example after breakfast, Deanna was discussing what was to come. I need to get this attitude in order before the Shayla thing comes out perfectly bright.

"Dear Rhea, Yolanda and Leticia. I need to see these three as soon as possible and ask for your help."

"Confidential if possible, is it?

"Yeah, right. Only what seems to me and those people to be connected must be avoided."

"The quickest thing to do is get a letter delivered to 'Darkness'..."

To Rita's suggestion, Deanna grinned and shook her head sideways.

"Then it would be too offensive to be polite. If you'll excuse me, I need to take you directly."

"Deanna, is it? But then…"

"I know. It stands out..."

Deanna, who is the head of the side chamber and "Countess Crester," stands out no matter where she is or what she is doing. Unless it's a place that's not popular at all, but at least there can't be anybody near 'Between Names'.

"It's unnatural to have a 'named' tea party without Master Liliane, and it stands out that I ask 'named' one after the other. The best thing is to sneak up somewhere out of sight and talk to you."

"Deanna called, you may be wary and refused."

"It is. As Liliane has repeatedly invited me to her faction, I am also looking to expand my faction. Maybe you won't even listen to me."

"I said, I'm too suspicious for a call with your name down..."

"I don't know why this is so troublesome when I just want to talk about it normally"

Hands on cheek, Deanna breathes. At times like this, having no connections is inconvenient.

"Between the nobles, there's still nothing to tsute in the royal palace... So far, I've managed to do it with information from the Dark Ones."

"But is it counterproductive to reject the use of 'darkness' to deal with side chambers?

"Normal ladies won't be familiar with the coverts."

"... what shall we do? We have to hurry."

"Yep. Before the rear palace gets rough, whatever it takes, we need the help of the 'named' people. It's too late for rough."

That is the only idea that is unanimous among the parties involved. Though I can cry about the fact that the only thing that carries things is a round throw at Deanna.

Excuse me.

Unexpectedly, a voice echoed in the room where no one else was supposed to be. Rita becomes and moves reflexively to the position of sheltering Deanna. Suppressing Rita like that, Deanna stood up.

"... you, Lurie, right? Come in."

"Yes."

Coming out of the back of the bedroom was a quiet brunette samurai. Don't say anything extra, work is polite and fast. Deanna was secretly the maid of the royal palace she was eyeing.

"I'm sorry, Deanna. I've heard everything."

"You've been in the bedroom the whole time?

"Yes, I was ordered to clean up the ornaments you used at the evening club."

"... you surprised me. I didn't feel any sign."

If it's just Deanna, it's still pretty good that Rita won't be able to sense it. The brunette samurai - Lurie, fell down deeply.

"When you're working alone, it's a habit to kill the signs. In the meantime, Deanna and Rita started talking... and I couldn't get out."

"And yet, how did you come out now?

"That's because... Deanna's in trouble, I've been seen."

Lurie looked straight up. Eyes with the glow of a black flare stone look strongly into Deanna's eyes.

"I'd like to be of service to you as you cross the border."

"... although that, to be honest, is very much appreciated. In the meantime, can you stand?

Different sights make it hard to talk to you.

Smiling and offering her hand, Lurie grabbed Auntie and Deanna's hand and stood up. And laugh.

"After all, it's just a rumor that Deanna is horrible. Deanna is kinder than anyone I've ever served."

"Oh, Mr. Lurie. You have quite a sight."

"Lurie's fine, Rita."

"I don't mind Rita either, Lurie. Anyone in any position can tell who Deanna really is is valuable. I'm not confused by appearances and rumors, I mean I have eyes that see through the essence. You're brilliant."

"I wonder...? If I'd served on the side normally, I'd know. I wouldn't be mad if a samurai failed at something, and you never said anything unscrupulous."

"That's what the Crestors interpret as' thinking behind a smile of retaliation against a failed opponent 'and' truncating it as worthless to use unless it's a person who moves without having to order it '?

"No, indeed, I was also initially like, 'What are you up to?' Though I never thought of it. In a month's time, you'll know it's just easy to misunderstand your face, and you're not thinking that bad."

Quite a rude conversation by the samurai, accelerating in front of the person. While listening in silence, Deanna thought maybe we should tsuck him in to do it without him, but fortunately, before she opened her mouth, the two maids noticed.

"Er... Excuse me, Deanna"

"... it's nothing good. It's a fact, and I'm used to being misunderstood. But from now on, do it without me."

"Yes..."

Summarizing the story for a moment, Deanna looked at Lurie again.

"So, Lurie. Will you help me?

"Yes!"

"Thank you. If you were listening, you'd understand."

"Yes, I should tell Sleep Lotus, Suzuran, and Suzuran that they can each be kept secretly in place, right?

"Yep. Can you?"

"I'll take care of it. I, even this, have served the royal palace for a long time. There are many familiar faces of samurai, especially in each of those three rooms, with friendly children in them. I was wondering if I could deliver Deanna's words to the 'named' people if I asked them."

"Can you lay down my name and tell me how you can still come?

"- Sure, I can't say. If you can make Deanna smell her purpose."

The light that dwells in Lurie's eyes is strong. Deanna looked back at it.

"Some of the samurai don't feel comfortable about the situation in the temple right now. All the good friends, including me, have a sense of crisis about the situation in the backyard. That must be the same for 'named' people"

"You're right, Lurie. Except for Liliane, the" named "side chamber never makes the state of the rear palace any better."

"Then. Let me know what you think and you'll come on board."

Deanna and Rita have hope. Deanna was strong and held Lurie's hand.

"Lurie.... can you?

"Yes!"

"Please, Lurie. The situation does not even allow a moment of respite. As soon as possible......, well, even this afternoon. Please tell Lady Rhea, Yolanda and Leticia that it is no longer in use, so that we can leave it in the east courtyard."

"I'm in awe"

Lurie gave a beautiful thank you. He turns around and leaves the room in a light foothold like he's going to go to the kitchen for a bit. The door closed, and Deanna and Rita looked at each other.

"You've got some amazing people close to you."

"He is too much to serve His Majesty Manuke. Would you like to take Deanna with you when she leaves the rear palace?

"Hey...... People with thick connectivity pipes in the Royal Palace are valuable."

"Above all, in just a little over a month, it's pretty eye-catching evidence of Deanna's nature."

"Rita, if you've heard so much from me earlier, you're saying a pretty rude trick, right?

"Oh, really?

Rita is not bad. Well, this is also the uneasy feeling of the sisters growing up together.

"Dark hair, dark eyes...? Come on. You must be struggling."

"You must have a pretty good, supple strong heart. Otherwise, I don't think I can do the royal palace samurai, which will also come with 'Between the Red Roses'."

"Yeah, I agree. I have to thank her for getting into Red Rose."

Black, the color is quite unusual in this country. And at the same time, it is an abominable color.

A long time ago, before the establishment of the kingdom. In this world there was a being called the 'devil's man' who would harm man. Those who were black all over said they were abusing, kidnapping, sometimes eating and threatening people's lives.

With such legendary influences, humans in this country hate the color 'black'. In fact, it is a colour that the people of the Kingdom of Elland do not have. Far east, in the archipelago beyond the sea, black is not uncommon.

"I wonder if Lurie is drawing eastern blood. You think you know anything about the East Country?

"What do you think? If we get along with each other, maybe we should ask. Now I don't know how Lurie feels about her color."

"Though I don't really know what black shouldn't be"

"That's because Deanna is from the Crestor family. Even the Dark ones are dressed in black."

If you're in the public, you've had a lot of hard feelings.

Deanna nodded at Rita's words, too, and vowed strongly to take care of her new, companion, brunette daughter.
