The Inner Palace Tale of a Villainess Noble Girl
After the prayer.
Deanna, having finished her mouth-to-mouth meeting with Rita, took a trip to the Temple of Mist a short time before the royal carriage arrived and said, 'May I have a moment?' and called out to the cleric. Apparently, the "Red Rose Missing" report had reached the Temple, named after it, and then a fuss up and down.
I thought I'd been guided to the 'Miyagi Hall' next to the temple (which still looks like a castle normally), and I asked the king who came down from the arriving royal carriage, "Are you safe, Red Rose!" and for some reason (truly strangely) pleased and eager to hear more about the knights, Yuri led by a royal palace samurai and a woman officer silenced her in a general appearance, and Deanna was immediately examined by a doctor.
There was a lot at stake last night, but Deanna, who was even protected by Kai, ended up without one scratch. I ate well in the morning and noon, and Deanna, who was able to run far and stress out, was healthy and energetic. He was seen that way on the far side (unfortunately, the doctor who saw Deanna was definitely twisting his neck wondering how she was doing with the warrant for putting herself in an unfamiliar environment), and now it was time for the knights who came to listen to him to get rid of him, and Deanna was thrown into bed after being massaged without losing her whole body.
After some rest and dinner, finally, the knights, forgiven by the samurai, came to inquire about their actions from last night to today. After satisfying them with the answers on the meeting street, what a luxurious bath with a spacious hot tub. It is the royal order to come to the prayer of the Sunday, having soaked himself in water here and cleansed himself.
Despite being massaged before dinner, her whole body was again perfectly polished here, and Deanna fell asleep, rather feeling tired here.
And the night dawns...
"Amenos, God's cause made this world full of light and promised prosperity. We give thanks to the great God..."
I would not have been able to worship first without such an opportunity, from the chief clergyman, the apex that binds the followers of Armenianism, thank you - I had given you my word.
The content itself was so normal that the worship in the Lord's Temple would require a somewhat unusual courtesy or something, Deanna, but on the contrary it would strangle me as to whether this was really good. "The royal family bestows blessings" and nothing, if you think carefully, is an array that asks the clergyman to say, "May the Amenos God be with you next year". I'll get your word for it. This one just needs to quietly advance to the front of the altar and quietly drool your head. It was an easy job for everyone, without any difficulty.
Finally, all those present sang a song glorifying Amenos God, and the prayer ended unharmed. If I take a carriage just for this reason, it will take me five days, and I think that I have been going all the way north, I think that there may be some more flashy performances or something.
"Nothing, like our toko, I'm not even saying I want you to dimension it."
"That temple is unusual. The clergyman who made fun of me elsewhere, he said, will be flashed without exception."
Deanna, who had finished her prayer and even returned to the room she had been safely given, was having a chat with Rita, who was helping her to get dressed, and with no other love.
There are several temples in the Crestor Zone, but familiar to the Lords' family, it has a colorful and adorable appearance and an atmosphere where the children of the town are constantly immersed in the noise that makes them not think of it as a temple at first sight. As the descent festival approaches, immersion regulars will voluntarily team up to practice the dimension on the subject of a fairy tale called "The Myth of Founding" to show off in Sunday worship. It's a mystery since when did you have such a delightful habit, but it seems that by the time Dualis was a child, it was already done as a very normal thing. By the way, Deanna too, when she was a single-digit old, had participated in the play as a village daughter.
... and if you try to make a one-of-a-kind 'worship' a Deanna who has grown up to be normal, the worship of the Lord's Temple is too ordinary to be interesting. Though, as a daughter of nobility, I did not have to sleep because I had experienced the prayer of the King's capital only once in the past.
"Even if our array is an extreme example, right? At the busy time at the end of the year, His Majesty the King takes his feet all the way, so I thought it was quite a divine ritual as well."
"Uh, that's what I thought, too. Sure, the building itself is splendid, and the costumes of the priests were glittering, but the worship itself is either formal or very normal. I was wondering if I could do it in Wangdu."
"See? We all had our mouths together that what we do in the main temple makes sense, but given the cost-effectiveness, it's not a very solid gesture."
Tokoton It is a realistic obedience. As much as we divide ourselves as outsiders, our thoughts are unforgiving.
She took off her heavily dressed dress in the morning, changed to a simple abbreviation and finally, Deanna exhaled in relief. Back in the living room, two samurai who can make warm tea are waiting for me. With the biggest stage over, the look on both of us is clear.
"Thank you, Yuri, Luli.... If it's good, why don't you two have some tea together?
In the first half of the trip, the two royal palace samurai were revising their perceptions of Deanna. Their 'Red Rose' is a ruinous insane person at the root, although the noble lady behaves really well. But in her, those two seem to coexist uncomfortably.
Deanna doesn't invite a samurai to tea when she's in the royal palace. I guess being on the trip looses her 'nobility'. She's so strange and comfortable.
Yuri and Lurie looked at each other, laughing a little and nodding at each other.
"If Deanna invites you, you can't say no."
"But not when you get back to the royal palace, right?
Rita laughed at the two highly adaptable people.
"You're reliable, both of you. Good evening, Deanna."
"Hey Rita, what does that mean?
"It means exactly what you say, doesn't it? Between yesterday and yesterday, you can't possibly be aware of how much effort you put on us, can you?
Shit, it's a snake.
It was Deanna, who frontally collided with the topic she wanted to avoid if possible and floated around trying to escape, but was inhibited by Luli, smiling (but excluding her eyes) at the front, and Yuri, who quietly brewed tea for a number of people beside her. Rita then gently blocks Deanna's side, and the escape has to be abandoned.
Unlike Rita, who kept in constant contact with 'Darkness' and was purchasing some information, the Royal Palace group worked non-stop from last night's rendezvous to this morning's worship without getting a full explanation. Try the two of you, you spent your time in the Lord's absence worried and uncomfortable, but the person at heart was arriving at the temple with a bare face, so you might even want to say a word or so about "sit there for a moment".
"I already fully understand that Deanna doesn't have common sense. Come on, can't you tell me the truth?
"We don't believe what we told the Knights of the Royal Palace last night is true."
Suddenly a raid from a stranger, confused by fear, the 'Red Rose' fled toward the back of the woods. Where he was desperately fleeing, he was helped by a kind traveler who happened to be in the woods and was able to come safely to the Temple of Mist.
... but the traveler who sent her away found her to be a very high-profile woman and left without even telling her her her name, hating the trouble. At the break up, the traveler taught me the path, and "Red Rose" was safe and able to reach the temple...
This is the story Rita and Sirius taught us. Most people will be fooled, but just...
"Deanna was probably the coolest of us then. I'm guessing getting out of the carriage has something very clear to do with it.
"You ran away from that place, 'cause you were scared' is not a simple reason, is it?
The eyes of the samurai who could have been in the carriage are not likely to be deluded.
Deanna laughed a little, laying her eyes down.
"Isn't it cheating to dare ask questions about what you're already sure of?
"It may be sloppy, but I believe it is more conscientious than Deanna, who drains our liver without any explanation"
"... I knew you were worried."
"Naturally. Rita seems to have something on her mind, but we have no idea."
The anger between the two now is a worrying recoil from last night. That was painfully understandable, so Deanna slowly, bowed her head.
"First of all, I apologize for worrying about you two so much. At that time, I couldn't think of a better hand."
"... Again, you had an idea?
"It was almost a reflex to get out of the carriage. Someone from the woods felt signs that they were after Rita."
Um, my back feels creepy. It wasn't myself who was targeted, but at that close range, once the flying tool is targeted at a well-known human being, the part close to instinct reacts on its own.
"I was in a heartfelt hurry to see if I could make it, but I was relieved to manage to prevent my bow from stabbing Rita. But..."
Genuine killing, directed simultaneously at Deanna who went outside. Deanna clearly realized then that everyone who was surrounding the carriage on that spot, not one or two, was clearly after her own life.
"The purpose of those who attacked the carriage was neither 'royal' nor 'hardware'. It was my life.... you know what that means?
"Does that mean you won't stop attacking the carriage until Deanna gives you her life?"
"That's all I felt ready for, at least from the guys yesterday. That's why I ran away."
"That's, no way,"
"If there's no one to target, there won't be any reason for them to attack the carriage, will there?
Regardless of Rita, who had already guessed Deanna's motive for escaping, Yuri and Lurie were flabbergasted by this confession.
"I mean, the rear palace Kingsguard I was fighting then... no, to protect the lives of all those involved"
"You dare say you ran away...? For us."
"I couldn't think of any better. They were more than we could have imagined, and sooner or later, our defeat would have been confirmed and someone would have lost their life."
"That's not the problem!
Yuri, with a sober expression, made her talk absurd. If you look closely, there is intense light shaking all over the back of your eyes.
"Thus, Deanna, in her position to be protected, makes the most dangerous choice for us, etc. It's speechless!"
"I agree with Mr. Yuri. Our job is to protect Deanna's life at times of need, isn't it? In such a case, the first thing you need to do to protect yourself at the expense of the lives of those below is to prepare those in a noble position."
"I'm not even ready for that."
I know a hundred things about being scolded, but this is all I can't give away. Deanna looked back into the eyes of two royal palace samurai.
"If the noble need me to be ready to survive by turning someone against me, I cannot be 'noble' for life. I'm sorry about the self-sacrifice."
Deanna was spinning words for real, more than half.
"I will not have the readiness to defend my people, even if I am prepared to defend my country, to be defended by songs of my 'identity'. As much as I'm prepared to live at the expense of someone, I choose to be prepared to protect everything, including myself, and to live with regrets I couldn't protect. Only life, 'living', can't be taken back if you mourn."
Deanna is also rare to assure so far. Deanna laughed a little, to the two royal palace samurai staring at her with her eyes round.
"As long as we live, I'm sure there's nothing 'mourning' in the true sense. Then I'll figure out a way to cut through without anyone dying, even if I'm somewhat dangerous."
"… so you fled by yourself."
If you're a regular warrant lady, it's like death is definitive at that point. It is only natural that Yuri and Lurie were too worried.
but their Lord, flaunting his shoulders, smiled more like a mischievous child.
"You had a good chance, didn't you? He said if I could lead him into the back of the woods, he wouldn't be able to capture me by them."
"Why not?
Rita, who was eating cookies next to Deanna, answers Luli's question.
"Have you both been in the Crestor Zone?
"Crestor Zone......? No. Sure, it was one of the Count Crester's territories, wasn't it?
"The oldest Crestor realm, given to us at the same time when our house was given the title. It's also an off-season base, so it's local to me."
"Speaking of which, the Count Crester family barely made it out of the territory during the offseason."
"It's just a rumor, too, that you actually go out a lot everywhere."
Anyway, Rita put the teaspoon back in the saucer, and, uh, exhaled.
"The Crestor Zone is an area where you can cut through the woods."
"Oh, really?"
"The Lords Hall is also built to be surrounded by woods, and the woods that are already surrounded by it can also be part of the Hall. In short, 'garden'."
"Heh... heh, maybe that"
"Yeah, Lurie, probably a big win. - Deanna says you've been walking into the Crestor Zone woods and playing before you got your mind on it. A fierce man who can catch Deanna in the woods doesn't exist now."
"Is that it!
Deanna had a troubled laugh at the two samurai who had remained flashy since earlier.
"I wonder if it would surprise me that much... You just go ahead and breathe with the trees, hear the wind passage, and tell me where it's hard to reach people's eyes?
"So Deanna is the only one who can do that. Don't lose consciousness."
I can't help but think of Deanna as' special 'what she has taken for granted since she was a young girl, even when she got stuck numbingly. I just twist my neck.
Seeing how she was like that, the two royal palace samurai apparently understood something.
"Rita was calm there because Deanna ran off to the 'woods'"
"I'm calm, though I didn't even say so. I could believe it wouldn't be the worst."
"Nevertheless... Dear Deanna and Rita have just been amazed at me this time. I didn't know you were so familiar with the fight."
Rita, who had an unexpected way of turning the subject, only rocked the cup for a moment, but when she drank tea very normally, she shifted her gaze to Deanna. It's a "pass" signal.
Deanna laughed too and shook her head left and right.
"I'm familiar with it, not so much. I just don't know where or what's going to happen more than human beings are alive, and I know a lot about martial arts so I can protect myself all the time."
"But in a normal house, you wouldn't teach your daughter martial arts, would you?
"Well, that's what my house means, which may not be very common. What children say they want to do is basically because they are parents who don't stop"
Instead of being very common, the term out of tocoton common sense comes firmly to the clan, but you wouldn't be so aggressive in saying your family is weird either. Finally freed from the needle jar, Deanna sipped a cup of tea and smiled at the two in the front.
"I think it was bad for you to worry, and I'll apologize as many times as I can. But I'm sure from now on, I don't want to protect myself at the expense of someone else. So while I may worry again... that's all, I promise. He said he wouldn't waste his life, and no matter how dangerous he sees it, he's bound to survive and come home safe."
The pale eyes, who said so, were surprisingly clear. Don't get lost, straight, just get to the depths of people's minds.
It painfully occurred to Yuri and Lurie that Deanna had not lied or that she would keep her 'promise' no matter what lay ahead.
"- I'm sure."
"Yeah, sure."
Yuri, who rarely changes her expression, laughs softly. With the calm air indoors, the ladies were finally realizing Deanna was back.
Deanna's hand extended to Yuri and Luli...
"... Um, Red Rose. A little, would you mind?
At that moment when they were about to touch each other, the four of them looked at each other in the voice that rang from across the door.
