The Inner Palace Tale of a Villainess Noble Girl
A moment with friends
The New Year's Eve party is, in other words, just a countdown party, because "Let's all second read it together!" What an event. The bell rings twelve times at the same time as the start of the New Year, and each one just realizes, "I wish a new year had begun" when he hears it.
In short, if you even show your face at the opening of the night club, you won't be blamed for where or what you do after that. Extreme stories, I don't mind sneaking home.
Exactly. It wouldn't be a good idea for a side room to go home, but like this -.
"Dee... are you there?
If you are far from the venue, almost close to the outer palace area, and you are fluttering in a place where there is no one child during the night club, it is well tolerated.
While guided by Kai, Deanna continued down the hidden passage, naturally not knowing which part of the royal palace she was on the move. Back to the 'front' at some point, he was taught, "Go straight ahead and turn left at the poking hit. More back," but this practical array of doors is not from the residential area, no matter what you think.... Apparently, Shayla came all the way here in search of an unpopular place,
"... there's no way, is there? I didn't make any promises."
- Shayla?
Hide in the corner, as usual, and make a 'Dee' voice. Shayla, who was at a loss, raised a strange voice, pi.
"D, Dee?
"I heard voices, so I thought maybe. I knew it was Shayla."
"Dee!"
Shayla's voice bounces. Deanna's chest was dull and sore at the way she seemed happy.
"... sorry"
"Huh? Why would Dee apologize?
"I also couldn't do anything when Shayla was in trouble"
"No!"
Shayla's voice turns this way. I heard him shaking his head from across the corner.
"Always, even though I'm not promising, you always come when I want to see you. You even bothered to write to me during this time and tell me, 'I'm too busy for time during the descent festival, but I think I'll see you at the night club'. You're always sweet, I'm just too sweet for you."
"Shayla......"
"It's me, I noticed. He said Dee was sweet enough to be nice to me and didn't make the effort to live in this rear palace himself.... I don't just need you to protect me, I need you to protect me as much as I do my place."
"... so you asked Mrs. Magnome not to report the 'Peony' business to the outer house?
After a little silence, a voice returns like a stare.
"Dee's really in the mood."
"Information is a weapon. - It's painful to just pinch their mouths even though they can't do anything, but their actions have gone too far. I don't think it would ever be sweet to report it above and have it handled properly"
"Ray and, for Marika's sake, maybe we should. I'm going to ask Mrs Magnum to reduce the burden on both of us."
Shayla has a good relationship with the two new samurai who were set to take charge of Shayla's room as a result of the change in the former chief woman Maris. It would be hard to see a samurai suffer from harassment aimed at herself, I know that, though.
"Of course it's about the samurai, Shayla, but it's about yourself."
"... Oh, my God, please? I don't know who it is, but they're harassing me, so help me, please?
"More than that, you need something?
"- In the summer, you sue the outer court for doing nothing to me, even though it was such a terrible situation?
Poked at the unexpected, Deanna lost her words unconsciously. Shayla's voice was trembling, but not swaying.
"Back then, it was worse than it is now. If you walk down the hall, you'll be scolded, you'll be thrust. Sometimes the samurai followed it and was even forgotten to eat. I couldn't clean it properly, so I had no choice but to sneak up on the cleaning gear and clean the room myself.... that all that was done openly, and the outer palace didn't even look at us"
"... things were different then and now. The female chief also took turns and ventilated better. If you sue, the outer palace will move."
"I can't. - I can't sue you."
Speaking of which, Shayla was fine, stubborn. Deanna inquires, indulging herself in wanting to see her expression.
"Why?"
"You know that Your Majesty has pity on me, don't you, Dee?
"That's well..."
"Even yesterday, you just got back, but you visited me at night. I told you that I reconciled with the Red Rose and that I had an agreement, and I told you not to worry, because all your behavior at the night club today is part of the operation.... I like you because I'm the one."
"Oh."
Apparently, Juke kept his promise and explained to Shayla that it depended on what was right. On the contrary, what is the strong mode?
"Isn't that, good... of? You like Shayla, don't you, Sire?
"My feelings have nothing to do with this. If I complain about this to His Majesty, who cares that way, I will surely cause a backlash"
"Wearing His Majesty's petition on a casa... what? I don't think that's a rebellion."
"Still, yeah. Your Majesty was one of those people who looked at the Summer Palace and pretended not to see it, right? In the summer, a lot of side chambers were left to suffer, but this time it seems too good to be boarded up knowing I'm the only one who's been harmed."
Looking at the stunning Boomerang diagram here, Deanna did not think, she suppressed her forehead and groaned.
(This is a good example of behavior that leads directly to trust...)
Shayla knows. If you are in the rear house now, the appeal will not be ignored. Mrs. Magnome said she would be honest with me and fight the Home Office against me. If the king finds out about this, he'll order a thorough investigation.
- And the more publicly, the greater.
"Why didn't you order me to investigate that, even in the summer? That's when a lot more side chambers were damaged."
"It's Sheila, the princess, who's suffering this time, so you're treating her special"
that such a kind of reproach would be directed at the king.
The former is a legitimate accusation, while the latter is a complete rhetoric. If it's Juke right now, even if it was a side room other than Shayla that's being harassed, if you know what's going on, it's bound to work.
but it is an indescribable fact that he treated it as something that did not have a rear palace until summer. The truth is also that the rear palace until Deanna became a 'red rose' was a hell of a place for a low-status side room. Parents who failed to defy the pressure and offered a crying daughter would naturally have felt signs that their daughter was being treated unfairly in the backyard and would not have been calm. - It is likely that that dissatisfaction will erupt once and for all when Juke embarks on a solution to 'Harassment of the Princess'.
"Shayla... did you ask me not to raise this matter with the outer court to protect Your Majesty?
"If I wasn't the one being harassed, I don't think it would have been this easy..."
That's about all I could do in my position, and Shayla, whining, also seemed to mourn her powerlessness.
- He doesn't just want to be protected, he wants to be able to protect something. Is that all the thoughts that make one so strong? So much so that a girl who knows nothing about politics can think this far.
"... I'm really sorry I couldn't rush right away"
"It's fine.... and to be honest, I missed Dee"
"I'm with you. I was wondering what Shayla was doing by now while I couldn't see her."
I couldn't tell you the truth, I just left the word 'I can't see you' at its best. There's no way I wasn't heartbroken.
"I found something in my busy relationship that might suit Shayla, so I bought it for her."
"Hehe, we think together. I also found something at the store that looked good on Dee and bought it impulsively"
"Huh?
Looking around the outdoor store, they were thinking about friends who weren't here, they were each other. … and then.
"Hit it, bring it or what?
"Oh, and Dee? Me too... because it said in my letter that I would see you today"
"You feel good, us"
"Really."
Dull, the laughing voices echoed across the corners. Take out the wrap you had hidden under the swell of the dress, straighten out the distorted ribbon with a little hand, and Deanna offers it across the corner.
"Well, let's start with me,"
"Uh... even close, okay?
"Instead, I'm always sorry for making such a suspicious secret meeting"
Juke tells me Deanna's voice, recognising the breadth of Shayla's nostalgia, cages her mood. Shayla laughed strangely.
"I've been wondering lately if this is a bad idea. When you like Dee, show yourself."
"... I wish I could see it before it's too far away."
It's what Juke has on his side, and from now on, he'll have more chances to meet with Shayla as' Red Rose '. I think it's most convenient to reveal who you are naturally in that engagement.
"Well, I'm looking forward to it."
That's what I said. Shayla received the wrap and gave me the elongated wrap as if to redeem it.
"Thank you. - Can I open it?
"Welcome. Of course, open it. I'll open it, too."
Yeah, and I open the nodding wrap. Inside the wrap is laid with buffer material, carefully protected by...
"This, what? The shapes I've never seen...... the decorations are so beautiful"
The elongated bars shining silver have pointy tips. Is the moon and snow the motif for the swaying decorations on the other side? Delicate and handcrafted.
"Isn't it beautiful? Well... what is it?"
"What, an array that wraps your hair up? Was it in this shape?
The tip is sharp, and the first impression is completely, the dark vessel used by the operator. I think the needle Kai was just throwing was about this big.
"I was surprised, too. In the country to the east, it looks like this is the shape of a pigeon. That's what the shop guy said."
"Heh, that's an exotic form! It's awesome, I don't know how to use it... I'll check it out later."
I hear exotic, but also eastern, and I feel up all at once. Even in the land of Shawzi, is it in this form? Kai might know something.
"Thank you Shayla, I'm so happy!
"Me too...... hey, Dee. What kind of animal is this?
What Deanna bought Shayla was a cute animal figurine, covered in fluffy white hair. My creepy eyes are really adorable.
"I heard it's a rare animal, only up north. I hear the locals call it White Squirrel, but it's smart for squirrels."
"Yeah, but cute"
"The moment I saw it, Shayla thought of it. It looks good. You're in line with Bolero today. You look great."
Today's Shayla is a wintery costume paired with a bolero made of white fluffy hair in a dark, empty dress. It just suited him well, and it caught his attention in the venue.
"Thank you. I found this at the store and your friend bought it for me. It's a gift."
"I think it's a good buy. Something that looks so good without Shayla and who would wear it?"
"Dee...... too much praise"
Shayla across the corner seems to be lit, and her voice is brimming. Pretty, the praise is only worthy of these kids, and in her heart, Deanna stuck herself towards a hidden boy who must be observing this from somewhere.
- Gone, gone, gone.
From afar, from near, the bell sounds. All the temples rang the bells to tell the New Year.
After listening twelve times, Deanna turned to Shayla again.
"- I congratulate you on your visit to the new year. May the grace of Amenos God be with you this year"
"Thank you. - I wish you great happiness."
Deanna laughed a bit, first with Shayla, even without trying to say hello that would be exchanged at the beginning of the year.
"If I were to celebrate the New Year with Shayla, Your Majesty would be jealous."
"Your Majesty is not jealous of such a small thing. I'm happy to be the first to say hello to Dee."
... I was confessed by myself a few hours ago that I was jealous of 'Dee', which I can't say is Deanna.
"What are we going to do, Shayla? It's New Year's Eve, and I think the Royal Palace will be rude from now on."
"I also heard that from Lady Ridil and Lady Nasha.... Sounds amazing, every year"
"For the young lady... it may be very irritating"
Speaking of which, last year it was a cold swimming tournament in a garden fountain.
"I heard Mrs. Magnome is preparing a shelter for me..."
"Oh, it's for side rooms only. Well, it's safer to keep friends there, absolutely."
"What's Dee gonna do?
"Though I'd love to go with you... because when I do, it frightens the others who are gathering. I'll be somewhere else."
- Year after year, dawn. The sound of that bell signals the start of a counterattack.
"Outside, it's dangerous. You can't let a man in, especially if he's caged in a shelter."
"Of course. Dee, be careful."
"Yep.... Shayla"
"What?
Signs of her right around the corner. Explore gently and take her hand, gripping it gently.
- Well, good luck with that.
"Dee......"
"The hard thing is, I won't go on forever.... because you're not alone. Remember that."
- Let's get it taken. You hurt this friend, that reward.
With an invisible but grinning smile, Deanna slowly let go of her hand and ran out to the battlefield.
