The Inner Palace Tale of a Villainess Noble Girl

New Year's Eve Club - Before That

For whatever reason, Deanna, who is serious about her duties as a 'Red Rose', has the job of 'Acting Queen', whether she wants it or not. Only accompanying you to the temple, only extracting the gardening club - at night clubs, only the king's partner.

Just like the night club at the beginning of the season, in this "New Year's Eve Club," Deanna was naturally guided behind the hall as one who stood next to the king.

(... I can't help it this time)

The grace of Amenos God, which the King has given directly in the Lord's Temple of Armenianism, will be shared with the nobles for next year. This seems to be the spirit of this night club. If so, it would be rather unnatural for me not to be next to the king who accompanied him to that temple of the Lord.

(It's a hassle...... It's just a countdown party anyway, so I don't think I'd even think that hard)

This night club, which begins at the same time as sunset and ends with sunrise, is nothing but an absurd fuss, with the royal palace inviting the nobles, 'Let's all spend the milestones of the year together' if you blow it. It's still an elegant ball until the signals of a change of year, but we entered the New Year, but at the end of the day, "Coco, are you sure the Royal Palace? Turn it into a chaotic (chaos) space like you want to say.

Beating fights everywhere are normal, as if clearing up everyday depression. Balconies and gardens are young - although there is also a mixture of those who are no longer young at a considerable rate - lovers snooze and men with no opponents in the hallway dictate maids and women officials. Others, those who get drunk and wave their swords at their bronze statue opponents, who get lost in the stables about where they went wrong, dancing horses and circular music (waltz), instead of falling into the pond and freezing, take off their clothes and pose as they are and say, "This is the real naked standby!" And he that crieth out, and counteth not. You need a minimum of moderation for disrespect, right? And Deanna, who went through last year, thought.

Still, until last year, I wish I had just laughed and sidelined a series of noises... this year.

(I guess I'll have to check around to see if there's a side room added to the fire play group or something...... Oh, seriously, I won't do it anymore)

I get a headache just thinking about it. Brain thinking has already completely abandoned the word "lady."

"Um, Red Rose..."

Whoa, you shouldn't. Soon, he seemed to have arrived in front of the armoury.

"Excuse me. He seemed a little upset."

"I can't help it, because you'll be tired from a long journey. Please be patient for a while now, as you can rest at the end of this nightclub."

Even during the evening club at the beginning of the season, the samurai who led Deanna so far worked with words that would not stare like running water. That's right, I was just chosen to serve beside the juke, and this person tastes different. There will be fears of 'Countess Crester', but that seems to be the type of work that can be divided into jobs.

"Thank you. I'll be fine."

"May I speak to Your Majesty?

"Yeah, please"

Nodding, the well-done squire heads to the door and releases his voice.

"- Your Majesty. There you are, Red Rose."

"Let it pass."

I don't put my hair down for a while and my voice comes back from inside. Deanna slipped through the door that the samurai had opened for her.

Unlike last time, the room is shiny. No sign of a knight in a discreet spot, but that's minimal, too.

Juke was waiting for Deanna in the corner where the table and chairs were located, a short distance from the door, without having to look. Moving on to him, Deanna breaks her knee without making a sound.

"I greet His Majesty the King. Side chamber 'Red Rose', now overtaken by summons"

"Oh, you've come a lot. I've paid for it. Make it easier."

As he lowered his hips to the recommended chair, the Kingsguard knight, who seems to have refrained, brings him tea.... As for the Kingsguard's job, it's quite a different color.

"Does His Majesty's Knight even do the work of a squire?

"Hmm? Oh, you still care?

'Cause it's a sight I don't see much of.'

"Alford's been worried lately. Until I re-washed the identity of the samurai, I said that the guards would take care of what I put in my mouth just in case."

Sounds like Alford who is loyal to his duties and takes good care of him. The fact that one of the main culprits was about to be dispersed and abandoned inside the rear palace Kingsguard in an attack on a carriage to the Temple of Mist seemed a considerable shock to him.

"That's all the captain will be showing you about His Majesty."

"I guess so. Hi, I'm not used to this kind of treatment."

Juke smiled bitterly, and, uh, caught his eye on Deanna's outfit.

"But when you're dressed like that, you look really bad"

"Thank you very much for your tired of hearing. Nothing. I'm not after you, am I?

"Oh, no, it's beautiful, isn't it? Very well suited."

"Don't worry. Your Majesty should only say such praises to Master Shayla, right? You look so bad if you dress like a good fit, because I know that now."

In a sense, it is the main show of the Crestor family.

Dresses scattered with beads in dark pink glossy fabrics, ear decorations with pearls colored with gold, necklaces with colorful gems, ruby hair decorations that appear in golden hair and the items that the samurai in the answering machine were sorting us by hanging more over their arms, give Deanna a perfect balance, more beautiful than ever. And as a result, Deanna was transformed into a really powerful Red Rose.

... Nothing, I don't expect any more praise like beautiful or cute right now.

"- By the way, Your Grace. It's still a while before the night club starts, was there anything you wanted to talk about?

"Ah...... ah. I need to talk to you about something."

As soon as I turned to the water, I saw the juke that made me look bad and lose my gaze, and I could read more or less the contents of the "consultation".

"Dear Shayla, can I help you?

"... so you've also met with reading minds?

"With all due respect, Your Majesty, it is easy to understand.... Am I still offended that I will serve as your Majesty's partner?

"No? That's more of a pleasure."

Shayla's "Red Rose Love Phenomenon" still seems to be alive. I just don't understand that thought circuit.

... If it wasn't a romantic entanglement, would it still be about a series of events that started on the main day?

"... what did Master Shayla say to His Majesty?

"I didn't take it up and actively talk about something. But it was obvious, and it was a dark look."

When I hear that again, I feel comfortable tightening my chest to powerlessness. No matter how hard Mrs. Magnum and Chris did for me, it was impossible to stop all malice in a wide area where so many people lived, and the harassment of Shayla continued until yesterday, changing hands.

Dresses that were supposed to have been washed were unraveled, only the equipment that was supposed to be turned into Shayla's room was shattered, and the curse doll was found under the window... It was Shayla who responded with fortitude that time, but malice slows people's minds down easily. Two samurai admiring Shayla seem to be very unstable at the moment.

"If you're not feeling well, this evening's night club, you won't be forced to. Shall I advise Mrs Magnum to remain absent?

"I don't know. I told you to rest, too. Shayla is that, and there's something stubborn about it, so it's a strain of 'I'm not sick, so it's okay'.... really, what the hell happened"

What Juke does not know about this matter is that there are some rear palace generalities who do not want to ramble him, but most importantly, Shayla tells Mrs. Magnome, "but keep it a secret from Your Majesty. I don't want to annoy His Majesty with the tedious groaning of the rear palace," because I pressed my precautions.

Shayla's words are not wrong. Involving the outer palace in the rubbing of the posterior palace should be avoided as far as possible. - On our own, as long as we can work it out, ha.

(- I won't let them like it anymore)

All the tricks, they're in order. Later, just wait for the night club to start.

In front of Deanna being motivated to fight, the juke she was thinking about blinked her eyes, as she remembered.

"... right. I don't know if it has anything to do with it."

"What's going on?

"Last night, during a conversation with Shayla, I heard something a little odd. If you think about it, maybe it was one of the reasons Shayla wasn't feeling well."

"Well, what's the story?

Aside from harassment, did something happen? Unexpectedly he rides himself out and asks, Juke twists his neck tightly and drops his words pompous.

"- To my favorite friend, I haven't seen him in a while."

"... Lady Shayla and her friendly side room, by the way, Lady Ridil and Lady Nasha, is it?

"That's what I asked, but Shayla denied it. He said he'd never seen anything like it."

"... what?

They say unexpected things, and only for a moment, the vegetables mix with Deanna's expression. Juke, who was watching the universe, did not notice it and continued to depress his grief.

"Shayla's friend is apparently quite shy. You don't like to show up, you don't even have a real name, you just exchange voices? Shayla said she had only seen behind her back"

"Well..."

Is that, maybe not... about 'Dee'?

Anyway, because of the sudden talk of accompanying him to the Temple of Mist, Deanna had deposited a letter with the "Darkness" of the answering officer, asking him to put it in his usual place if Shayla tried to meet with "Dee" during the descent festival. Yesterday's report did say that for once, Shayla tried to meet 'Dee', but that was the first half of the descent festival. It should have been before the harassment started.

"Well, you think your inability to see your friend is the cause of Shayla's depression?

"No, I don't think that's everything. but when I talk about that friend...... Shayla seemed so, so lonely"

At the same time, the feeling of guilt boils down a little to wanting to be stuffed that it's anyone's fault. Deanna and I had absolutely more fun dating Shayla back at the palace than being unfamiliar with the carriage journey.

"... Red Rose, to Shayla's friend, do you have any idea?

"And even if they say... you don't even know your name, do you?

"His real name is unknown, he doesn't show up, but he doesn't take it off when Shayla wants to see him. Apparently, he named himself the terminal side room, but he's pretty familiar with the situation in the rear palace."

... When they hear this from a third party, they are completely suspicious. Shayla often even thinks she can be friends with such a suspicious person.

"If you did, you'd have a lot of information about all the side rooms, wouldn't you?

"I won't deny it... but identifying just the information you just said is a pretty difficult task, isn't it?

"Yes, you are."

"It would be uncomfortable if such a suspicious person were close to Master Shayla, but I would like to take a moment..."

"Hmm? Oh, no, no. I'm not blaming you for that. It's just... I'm just jealous of that friend."

"... what?

Unconsciously, my expression could not be repaired successfully. Juke laughs bitterly at Deanna, who gets pompous to watch.

"... you said you never liked people."

"In a romantic sense, yes"

"One thought is quite a troublesome silo thing. My mind swings to every action of my opponent. If I could realise that Shayla's heart was right for me, I'd be comfortable going up to heaven... and on the other hand, if I saw Shayla deeply admiring someone, I couldn't help but envy the person ahead."

"Uh... but as far as I can tell, you and Shayla's friends are women, right?

"It doesn't matter if the other person is a man or a woman.... No, I'm a woman, so maybe I'm just jealous."

I don't want to imagine Shayla's heart turning to anyone but me.

- So zero juke was exactly the young man himself who was troubled by love.

(I wonder if it is)

If it's love that even a good same-sex friend remembers jealousy, it's a troublesome emotion after all. Honestly, when I'm still loaded, I recognise it.

(In the meantime, I need to see a gap during the night club and talk to Shayla)

If the inability to meet with 'Dee' was that much of a blow to Shayla, then it is a matter of liberation. One step at a time from what I can do, I can be 'Dee' if I have this body, so I can't say I'm busy or anything.

"- Your Majesty, it's time."

From beyond the curtain, I hear a pinched voice. The conversation was cut off with an implicit understanding, and the two stood up.

"Okay, 'Red Rose' - Deanna Crester. Following your visit to the temple, you will struggle, but thank you."

"While not extending, I will serve as best I can. - Let all the nobles know the rapprochement of the 'King and his wife' and explore their reactions lightly."

"Right. I'm counting on you."

tangle each other's gazes, and nod.

- The king and the "Red Rose" leaned in, and went beyond the light curtain, and were sucked in.
