The Inner Palace Tale of a Villainess Noble Girl

- Well, what are we going to do?

In a dungeon surrounded by cold stones, Deanna, literally imprisoned, conceives as she sees the light slipping through a skylight far overhead.

Her current location is an ordinary "innkeeper" for sinners, in the outer palace, in the basement near the soldiers' quarters. The Royal Palace has a place for you, guaranteed clothing and accommodation, more to be called a cell than a prison cell, but they don't expose conservatives to treating Deanna politely.

(I don't know how far you're willing to go to make promises...)

If the enemy had a head to guard the 'Crestor family' at all, he would not do this to Deanna, the daughter of the present Lord. Even if you want to capture him, you should choose a place or so. I'm willing to kill Deanna over there, and wherever I throw a short woman of life, I may think the result is the same.

(You can't save me around being sure you can kill me like this.)

Indeed, Deanna and the others were everywhere behind this plot. The captured opponent creepingly silenced, 'poison' coming out of nowhere as if by magic. I thought I'd gotten over it, and Shayla was taken and Deanna was like this. It's undeniable what it feels like to be rolled, just like the "someone" thought muscular. - Angrily enough.

But. 'Enemy', I don't understand.

(We turned around because of a number of constraints)

its most gigantic and powerful 'shackles'.... 'Enemy' has itself taken it away.

Predicting future developments, Deanna doesn't know and exhales deeply.

He looked up at the lull of light, falling from the skylight above his head, and knew that the dawn was near.

(Depressed, it doesn't change how much time passes.... I need to find something I can do)

The dungeon is large, but no other prisoners are found in the compartment where Deanna was put. The lookout seems to be protecting an invisible position outside the compartment, from Deanna. There are signs, but I don't feel a glance.

The narrow square cell is covered by stone walls, and the front of the skylight wall is an iron lattice that looks like a barn. Only in the longitudinal direction, you can get it out if you have about one arm, but not enough clearance for the whole body to pass through.

(Exactly, there doesn't seem to be a loophole inside the cell. As long as we can get past this lattice, it doesn't seem hard to get out there unnoticed by the lookout)

The dungeon was huge and the construction seemed complicated. It would be to prevent the escape of the sinner, but if you turn it around, it would also lead to a way out of security. Only a handful of the Knights of the Royal Palace are involved in this matter, and it's not that hard to escape by poking a blind spot on the lookout - though.

(Probably... suppose the Landrose family is involved in this matter)

If Deanna escapes - Shayla's life, unsure of her cheapness, is exposed to an unlimited amount of danger.

Deanna was captured by the Knight of the Royal Palace as the main perpetrator of the plot to kidnap the 'Princess Petite'. There are currently three "executors" in custody: Oleg, Rhino and Bell. Even if all three of them confess that 'kidnapping is a Red Rose instruction', in circumstances where there is no material evidence, it is only 'suspicion'. If you move to captivity and say, 'Is it also evidence of immobility, bring your ears together', you will turn back without doing anything. Normally, it's not the stage where you can get in without the king's forgiveness.

Nonetheless, they moved. Deanna is not so dull that she can't decipher the 'enemy' message put in there.

"Adult, if you don't get caught like you were told, there's no life for Shayla"

The enemy knows that setting up Shayla's "kidnapping" and exposing her to Deanna's sins is, above all, a "blackmail" that binds Deanna.

Conservative aristocrats can't even know that Deanna was intimate with Shayla as' Dee '. Still, I can be sure that this' blackmail 'is valid for Deanna because that's how she actually has a proven track record of sealing Deanna's movements.

"The Marquis Cocott family said they were preparing for the war"

At the New Year's Eve Club. That time I was alone with Liliane.

Her, in that word, Deanna was definitely stopped. I had to give up my relentless pursuit of the Peony.

'The weak' to be protected as nobles. That's certainly, in a way, Deanna's weakness. Only Liliane, who would have actually confronted Deanna and realized its effects, would poke at it precisely.

(That's right, one of the kingdom's finest ancient geishing nobles. If it's a cowardly method of warfare with a handful, you're really used to it)

I didn't mean to look sweeter, but it does more daring than I thought it would be without guilt. Thanks to you, this one wants to make sure Shayla's cheap, and if it's possible, she wants to help out and she's nagging, but she can't move.

(And -)

If you wish, so does this country. - And the king.

I don't want to give up.

Dear Deanna,

A voice waiting, but not wanting you to come, falls.

Keeping her back on a wall with skylights and clenching her fists all the way, Deanna turned straight forward.

"Sirius......"

"Are you hurt?"

"It's okay. He pushed me on the back when I could put him in jail, but there's nothing I can do about it. Not a scratch."

'Totally...... I didn't know you treated the lady from the Crestor family this way and flat out. That's a lot more fools that can't be saved.'

"I don't have a choice. Little incidents, even a little, are not enough to be remembered by people. How sincere we must be in history to tell our descendants the 'trigger' of a hundred and fifty years ago."

"Master Dualis said so, too." There is some error, but more or less every hundred years this hand noise occurs. This time it feels like fifty years of deviation from the jazz system. "

The lessons of history fade in a hundred years - and is Dualis trying to say?

Deanna is scared to listen to her father, who seems to know the current situation correctly.

Keep the tremors of your body under control with the power of your will.

"So... your father..."

"We will destroy those who do no harm to 'Crestor' by raising their total strength - that is the decision of Master Dualis."

The meaning put into the short words was so clear to Deanna that she knew too well. It would mean hitting the 'enemy' with the force of stripping, with no effort or consideration.

Now, in the royal palace. If the 'Crestor family' is serious...... it is.

"... the country will sink."

"The inevitable," he said.

"The king is about to change. That's how you know, and you still bump 'total force'?

"Dear Deanna. Seems harsh to say, 'I'm about to change' is not enough, more than reigning at the apex of the kingdom. It does change, and if we don't create a different view with what we've changed '

Deanna shook her head left and right violently.

"I don't know. Need to get that far?

'No. Deanna must know. Why did Master Dualis make this decision?

"I don't know.... I don't want to know."

Even as I try to raise it, my gaze falls down.... Yes. The truth is, I know.

Why did Dualis make the decision? That's...

'The biggest cause of the stubbornness so far is the king's neglect. Moreover, he made Deanna bear the blame, albeit unconscious. I finally realized that, where I was about to change, I couldn't overshadow the past that was stupid, and this is how Deanna's life was targeted.... you know what I mean?' I didn't make it, 'he said.'

A helpless reality stabs Deanna with words. I slapped my painful chest, with my fist.

- I knew. I found out the Conservatives moved for Deanna's life, since then.

My father will not forgive me any more than this has happened. Moves to prune Deanna's life-targeting flavor.

Regardless of faction or otherwise, he does not equally forgive those who threatened Deanna's - 'Crestor' life.

Its Solemn Qing calls a storm to the royal palace. Threaten even the king.

Let this system of the Kingdom of Elland shake from the ground up.

It's about Dualis. That line will be protected so that it does not become a battle and that even if it does, it does not cause damage to the territory of Crestor. It is against the royal palace, the government, and the nobility that he does not take into account.

"Cow the evil of the kingdom, the emperor of the back society," the House of Takrester cuts off the nobility besides the king. Dualis is about to move, knowing more and more how shocking it will be to the king's reign to do it in this country that lays absolute kingdom.

It was - because Dualis decided that the present king's previous behaviour had a responsibility and cause for this situation, and yet he lacked the talent and ability to get through the status quo.

In short, Dualis, the Earl of Crestor, called King Juke a 'discerning'.

To a leaning Deanna, from overhead, a quiet voice descends.

'I'm going to understand how Deanna feels when she seems careless.... a little bit more.'

"... I knew your father would judge you that way. But I want to wait. Yes, tell your father?

'If you want, I'll take it.... Why are you trying to believe so much?

I wonder why.

Even myself, I don't know. Close your eyes and think.

... Oh, I thought.

"Whatever I've done now, I've decided to regret it. If you regret it the same way, you'd rather believe it than give up."

"Speaking of like Deanna, maybe it seems"

"You can only stay in jail, it's me. All I can do is believe it."

Rather, there is more to entrust to those outside.

Deanna put into words what she always cared about.

- Sirius, do you know where Shayla is?

'... no'

Phew.

From Sirius' voice, the temperature disappeared.

- To a bad feeling, the cold stuff builds up.

"Don't you know life or death?

"On the Left."

"... hey, 'Darkness' to Sheila's rescue, haven't you moved?

The fallen silence is the will of affirmation.

Almost shouting, grabbing her left hand painfully with her right hand, Deanna killed her voice.

"How could...!

"Master Dualis was instructed to do so with 'total force'. We are now doing everything we can to consolidate the scaffolding that will hunt down the 'enemy'. - I can't afford the personnel '

"Is destroying the 'enemy' more important than Shayla's life!?

"If life has weight. Deanna's life is heavier and more important to us than Miss Shayla Carrerdo '.

To save Deanna, abandon Shayla.

Does Sirius say?

... No. Probably not.

"Sirius. When you can fool me, don't think"

"Dear Deanna..."

"I don't think it's a lie that we can't afford personnel. But we don't have anyone to give up innocent lives for that reason."

- It's...

"... your father, you gave your life. Don't help Shayla."

Sirius can't think of anyone but Dualis trying to shelter him until he buys a hater.

After a slight silence, I hear Sirius full of bitterness.

"Dear Deanna. Master Dualis, too, is troubled and tormented. I can't help Miss Shayla. '

"... you have a reason? You can't talk to me."

"- Yes."

The short affirmation also told the truth that he was unwilling to explain it any further.

Deanna cursorily shakes her head.

"No matter what, you can't?

"Our - the 'darkness' of the Crestor family will not move to rescue Miss Shayla."

Sirius himself must be itching. The answering voice was bitter.

A fear that could mourn freezes Deanna's entire body. I can't believe that that one that flipped the meal at the feast seat and said Yami could be the end of the day.

(I don't like it -!)

At such a pivotal time, Deanna can do nothing. For once, I hear the footsteps of despair.

Roughing up the country, ringing the beginning bell.

Put your best friend's life at risk in prison.

What have I done? - What did you exchange?

"Dear Deanna. - Dear Dualis, I have a message for you. '

To Deanna, who can no longer speak, the words of the quiet Sirius...... Dualis fall.

'- As you wish, move. Don't worry about the rest. "

... words of encouragement are also heavy and painful for Deanna, who deplored helplessness.

At the same time that the signs of Sirius disappeared, Deanna was crumbs broken from her knees.

† † † † †

- It was felt that Deanna was attacked by despair and knelt powerlessly on the dirt floor.

Sirius' heart also darkens before a reality he cannot do anything about.

(No matter how you scratch, you can't be omnipotent.... yes, even if you know it)

Dualis' anger was tremendous when he heard that Shayla had been caught and Deanna had become a prisoner for plotting it. Always faceless with a demon king's face, he is thought to have a low boiling point by people he doesn't know, but he doesn't actually get angry about rare things, and even if he gets angry, he doesn't put it on the table.

… that, Dualis.

'... is this the deciding factor? - imitate the lick. "

Sirius, with a voice that makes your spine cold. Instead of a conscious and faceless look, with a less expressive face of anger falling out, the Lord of 'Crestor' said.

'It's like playing pawn. For him, we are also one of the pawns in our hands. "

'... how would you like to, do'

'At this time. Let's just hang out with him. - You might notice the sender's thoughts quicker. "

Dualis is also far from a normal person, whining that it is difficult to guess the thoughts of a crazy superman in the normal way.

The more angry you get, the smaller your mouth counts. The more emotions you have, the more thoughts you have, and the more sharp you show your divine possession, the more you hide the frightening side.

"Sirius."

"Yes, Master Dualis"

"From this, we rise in total strength according to the Ancient Pledge."

"Deanna will disagree."

'I guess. But this is me, the current leader of' Crester '. I have nothing more to follow in my head's decision than to be a part of' Crester ''

'Compared to summer,' he 'has changed. Still?'

"... isn't Ed convinced?"

'Come on, if you stay stupid. We could have cut off our strays and given up.'

'Do we need to do that...? Right. Sure, the kids are going to say'

Deanna is in jail. I can't move freely, but the most maneuverable man in the Crestor family can move any way he wants to.

At the time of his attempts to kill the daughter of the Crestor family and his movements, the end of those who moved is determined. - But no matter how you 'dispose' of them, there are many ways to do it.

If you feel like it, there's nothing you can't do about not waving the royal palace and secretly exiting only the people involved.

It was not unlikely that Edward, who knew it more than Deanna, would rebel against the 'total force' part.

Dualis exhales heavily.

'That's all I wanted, though.... I'm gonna have to talk to you.'

"No way -"

"What is Deanna 'what'? For 'us', what presence?... what harming 'her' produces, that is'

- Yes. Dualis decided 'total force,' for the real reason.

It's not in 'Crestor', it's in 'Deanna' herself.

It was hard for Sirius to tell Deanna about Dualis' decision because he knew it.

... Perhaps even the determined Dualis himself.

Deanna doesn't know. I don't need to know, neither does Dualis, nor Sirius - even 'he' who spotted it, thinks so.

If it's possible... he even wants me to finish that life without knowing it.

"... Master Edward will be surprised."

"Surprise, knowing you've lost hope... rough, I guess"

'Still, you're not the one who ends up there. I don't remember raising him to be a man of that degree'

Edward is the son of Dualis, but at the same time a beloved apprentice that Sirius grew up with more hand salt than he did when he was a child. If Edward's strength, I know him well as Sirius.

With a slight bitter smile, Sirius changed his mind.

"I understand the matter of 'total force'. - But Master Dualis'

'I know. It would be Miss Shayla Carrerdo's rescue. "

The air around Dualis grew heavy.

... That's all Sirius knows somehow.

"... Sirius, what do you think?

'Sure, the' enemy 'is. I thought you were anticipating our pursuit.'

As soon as those on the side of the Crestor family stuck up to the people involved, those who were watched stopped moving. An expert in covert behavior, 'Darkness' was in charge, even Nomard.

... 'Enemy' is sure to keep track of this one's movements. Even 'darkness' is foreseen, in an unusual way.

If you're spotting the Darkness. You also naturally know that if you kidnap Shayla, 'Darkness' is likely to move.

What trap awaits, in this unpredictable situation. Still, neither Dualis nor Sirius were reckless enough to move to rescue Shayla.

They should give priority only to 'Deanna'.

'If you give Miss Shayla Carrerdo a gesture to rescue her, Deanna's surroundings will naturally be thin. Distributing protection is also one of the aims of the' enemy '.'

"What 'we' move is still a bad hand..."

The 'darkness' of the Crestor family has a decisive weakness. - Absolute loyalty to the master.

If you are just an earner hired with money, you will make your life a top priority when it comes to need, and you will try to survive even by betraying your employer. 'Species with Life', the old man said something really good.

But. As far as' darkness' is concerned, that doesn't work. They know that the 'home' Taklester family will protect themselves no matter what. That's what I know, betraying 'the country' and becoming a traitor, but not abandoning 'the darkness' I call 'the family'.

Therefore. 'Darkness' remains true to the Crestor family until the end. I would choose death if it was enough to betray me, and if the lives of the people of my home were taken by my shield, I would be unable to move at that moment. Like right now, a situation in which the daughter of the master is locked up can be said to fall into the worst category.

On top of feelings, traps that would be even more strained in a situation where it is clear that it is difficult to act without hesitation.

Sirius also knew how cruel it was for Dualis to give his men the life of 'Save Shayla Carrerdo and let them all return safely'. "Darkness", the Xuan (pro), if it were an order, would be fulfilled after taking risks. Only Dualis, as the Lord, hesitates to move them.

But with all these mental anxiety elements in place. And yet, if you can't read through the other person's 'trap'.

"If you can't move" Darkness, "the pot that the" enemy "thinks is going to be, gives you a hint of feeling."

'Right. or not to move vigilantly, it seems to be expected'

"… it's an abominable 'handler' to make '

'I guess my arms are excellent.... but'

Dualis didn't say the words ahead. With a far-sighted look, I'm thinking of something.

"Dear Dualis,

"... Bet?"

'Yes?'

'Even for Miss Shayla, this would be the place to step in. If you're a young lady who dies to this extent, how dare you?'

Kidnapping, I think, is important.

'But so far, her life and death are five fifths. For' Enemy 'she is Deanna's …' Heavy Stone 'which limits our movement. You know that if you kill early, you'll just give this one time to get ready to fight back. They're not retarded enough to kill short circuits'

'Is there such a situation down to the executors?

'So that's the' bet '. If the executors are all those who disturb Miss Shayla of' The Princess' anyway, she won't be able to live long '

Although a friend of Deanna's, Dualis has no direct knowledge of Shayla, and at best to the point of confirming it from a distance. It's a rare talent who finally voluntarily decided to go for "The Queen" because Shayla claims she could break Deanna's heart if she dies, so I'm just worried about it, and I'm not honest about being who I want to protect until I risk "darkness" or the house.

I repeat, because it is important, to Dualis, for the 'Crestor family', it is only 'Deanna' to protect.

But. Though he said cold things, Dualis' eyes were not those of him who trumpeted someone's life.

'If my predictions are correct. I don't think Miss Shayla's luck has run out.'

"... and say?

'If the executioners are sorry for their heads, Miss Shayla should be taking their lives as soon as they are taken away. That way, Deanna, who was so close, couldn't possibly not feel' trillion '.... Deanna staying calm means Miss Shayla is still safe'

Visited by those close to you, a danger to your life. There are quite a few people in this country who can feel it.

Until then if I said it was just a feeling, but it was also true that it boasted considerable precision.

"The longer Miss Shayla survives, the more likely it is that the executors have understood the intentions of 'above'. It means at the same time that there is more chance that she will be able to live '

'... and at the same time. It also increases the risk of those heading for her rescue.'

"I don't gamble when I can't win."

Clearly, say it out. Dualis looked at Sirius.

"The Crestors move more with 'total force' than this. At the same time, this time, I'm not moving to rescue Shayla Carrerdo.... Yes, will you tell Deanna '

"Dear Dualis..."

"Let it take on a hard role. You can blame me for everything."

Sirius laughed bitterly at Dualis saying that if I had as much skill as Ed, I would go directly out.

'Such. Even Edward can't handle a single stick of trespassing. This is even more true of our Lord, Dualis.'

"Sirius, you"

'It's nobody's fault.... If you insist, this is what our lack of power has caused. All you had to do was make an effort to get it, not blame the' times', but break it off from what you need '

"It was the masters of history who judged it 'unnecessary'"

"You are too kind. As a result, you may also be misjudged. - 'Cause it certainly needed more than' the enemy 'came out with these hands'

Though rarely, Dualis' shoulders fell and his gaze dropped. A bittersweet voice squeezes out of him with his left hand covering his face.

'... sorry'

The Lord of Sirius can also set up ruthless and incomparable operations if necessary.

... but it's never heartbreaking. Sirius has seen him over and over again, still desperately searching for the 'best', pushing forward and crying afterwards when it was all over, whilst taking any of them would only be a 'mistake'.

Your daughter will resent you. Make a choice. Even if you embark on a path that breaks the bond you have built for seventeen years.

He has... "He," who leads "Crester," has something he can't give way to.

"You look like a bad economy, Mr. Sirius."

From across the corner, came out quietly, a secret not 'darkness'.

Only purple blue eyes were burning brightly in the hidden passage, where the light outside poured in thinly.

Sirius laughs bitterly at what he says without hesitation.

"Can you do a great face? I cannot convey it to Deanna while I know the Lord's Goto. At the very least, Master Dualis and Deanna wanted to move on without breaking it"

That's ridiculous, Deanna.

To Kai's direct words, Sirius unexpectedly lost the words to return.

Strange eyes, like foresight of everything. The color was different, but it looked very much like his father.

"Deanna must know that she made a decision for herself that Mr. Dualis didn't even want to make. I don't blame myself for lack of strength, but I don't hate Mr. Dualis."

"It's..."

"You'll see, Deanna. Even if you don't know what's going on, that's the only way."

I don't think anyone is wrong, Kai's voice is soft, he says.

Sirius can only laugh when he finds out that his daughter is as inspired by the distant youth of her age.

"So, what happened to you?

"... I'm gonna ask you that now?

"We protect Deanna's life. Because that's the first thing. But it breaks that guy's heart when..."

As Rita realized. Sirius was also aware.

He said there was only one person who could protect Deanna's 'everything'.

The man entrusted, put aside a moment...... quietly, laugh.

"You're angry, me"

"Kai."

"I'm angry with the guys who have used their dastardly hands so many times like this, and the ones who have moved on to it.... angry with myself, most of all."

When the Knight of the Royal Palace stepped into the room in an attempt to jail Deanna. Kai was nowhere near here.

This boy, no less than Deanna, is tough on himself.

"It's not worth it."

"Not worth it?

"To me, it's not worth a world where Deanna can't be happy. If that kid can't be happy in this world, I want to break it all down and rebuild it. Yes, I really do."

"You..."

"Extreme? Rita also told me.... Honestly, I think we should just destroy a country like this that's just tormenting Deanna. Deanna likes this country."

Watch your palms. Kai squeezed his hands tightly.

"Mr. Sirius. Mine, you can do what you want."

"... what?

"What Deanna doesn't want, she doesn't. Deanna's happiness makes her smile what I want to protect. … For this reason, I will use what I do not want to use, and I will not reject it if I do not need it"

This, too, man. Probably has something in it.

Purple blue eyes dwelt a strong light.

"It depends on Deanna how I'm going to move. - At least one person, surely, sends to the afterlife"

I can't just keep 'him' alive -.

Calmly, without any emotions attached, he was exactly the operator who lived 'behind'.

Sirius himself is well aware of the futility of saying anything to the 'back' man who proclaims this way. lightly, sighed.

"Whatever you want."

"Thanks. Then I'll meet Deanna."

"... would be depressed. Regards."

"It's okay. Don't worry too much, Mr. Sirius."

Even though my attitude is light everywhere, my love is so heavy. Drop off the secret.

Sirius walked away from the spot without a sound.
