The Magician Wants Normality
Fading Dream Stories
People's gaze and irresponsible rumors directed at intrigue.
The lady who felt it leaned down more and more, and Felix sends her words of care and comfort.
When I saw it, I realized.
... Oh, that would say one of my dislikes.
It doesn't even get noticed, if you ask me, I know I'm willing to make an effort if I immediately apologize again.
But she just leans down. I don't see the attitude of trying to improve just because I'm sad. What if a woman is wounded to this extent to become a queen in the first place?
Especially the person who would be her educator - I guess around Felix and his mother - also saw a problem.
I can't imagine a young lady who was passionate about her service and whose words were 'Bread to the children rather than dress' was going to the social world with her ambitions on her chest.
Her Royal Highness Linus and the others said, "She and the house are good categories," so there must have been no shards of ambition or anything like political marriage aim.
I would have had a serene day if I had married around a lower nobleman who was equally faithful.
It was royalty that drove it crazy...... love with Felix.
If you're an ambitious man after balls, you'll see reality and you'll make an effort. But she was just a daughter admiring a lovely love.
The women of my age chose to do it with The Encounters of Destiny as it is with the love story they yearn for.
I guess it was that samurai who sympathized with that. For her, the lovers are the 'stars of the story', so all those who get in the way are 'villains'.
... Actually, there's one more thing that bothers me.
I hear bad rumors about her and the maid, but I don't hear anything about her parents' house.
You don't have to be an ambitious person to talk about your daughter, so you think you can support her in the shadows or praise her.
In that case, it would be rumored to be an 'impudent parent who can't praise her daughter', but I don't even hear about that. I mean, I don't see him at all.
'Already dead' or 'out of touch with my daughter' floats as a situation that fits this.
However, the latter is likely because if my parents were dead, I couldn't possibly be swallowed up to serve them, etc.
If we insulate ourselves and declare that we will not be involved in anything in the future, and we keep away from the social community, we will recognize and curse that the Lady's home is not the same as theirs.
They can't be against the Prince and the Count if they understand the Viscount family, the identity system. Because there's plenty of potential for being pushed out.
Parents who know some degree of dating in aristocratic society would not be thinking as optimistically as their daughters. You must understand very well that you are my daughter.
Weren't you against the engagement itself? The lady's home.
It may still have been different if the other prince was someone who could properly educate his daughter, but I can't expect anything from Felix.
Above all, due to her daughter's character, she would not have thought that the royal queen would serve. If you wanted a happy marriage, you would have definitely stopped it.
Or regular parents stop unless they're also ambitious. Who wants a life tied to duty, etc.
However, if this speculation was correct, the future of the young lady would be quite tragic. Because the price of choosing love by waving away the hands of those who guided me is never cheap...
"Is it time to settle down? Why don't you go say hello?
"... no, I'm fine"
Felix answered with a slight glance at me but without hesitation if he spoke to both of them, even though he was half-hearted.
Even if you're good, we're not. You were allowed in the first place because you were frightened around you, like before you were a grown man, right?
'I don't mind, Mizuki. Keep talking.'
I don't know what to do, but the demon king gave me instructions to read. I can't see it from here, but apparently they're both looking at this situation with King Baraksin.
"Your Highness Linus will be there, so you can compare it to him."
....... Instead of watching, were you releasing soldiers, Demon King?
Didn't I tell you that His Highness Linus has been able to dance perfectly to avoid constantly showing gaps in his position?
When I glanced at Al properly, I nodded softly as to whether Al was also hearing me. There appears to be no objection to the start of the counterattack.
"Really?... that's who you are."
Felix looks back suspiciously if he says so while seeping disappointment without hiding it.
"I heard rumors that you were willing to give up your minimum courtesy and duty as royalty, but it seemed to be true, not rumours. His Royal Highness Linus is honorable enough to be recognized in Irfena."
"Nah..."
"I am obliged to report as a person from another country, and also as a person from another world. Yeah, I'll tell my friends as well, right? I don't know how unsolicited it would be to treat you as a normal royalty."
Felix, who was compared to His Highness Linus and furthermore told far afield that he could not do it, stared at me.
But the surroundings I was listening to are changing their complexion in a different way. Notice that 'I can tell other countries as a weakness rather than a disgrace to the country'.
If you aim for Felix, you will definitely succeed. Besides, you can't just cut it off because you're royal.
And I know almost exclusively in the upper echelons of the country, if I expose it to Carlossa's assistant prime minister, he'll be happy to use it for diplomacy.
"It is thanks to the royal family that you have never been spread with the disgrace of the country. You're well protected from cold weather."
"Shame on the country...? Well, I'd love to hear it."
Felix, who provokes me as I exhale, seeps through my anger and yet comes on a light ride. In contrast, I smile and deal with them.
"Probably because the royalty, starting with the king, accomplished the apology. You can't even behave like you deserve in public! What has never been truncated is the fact that we haven't even grown up and our love as a family."
"Oh, that's known for it. If you are in your own country, you will not be allowed to fail in your official duties with another country… It is said that you are still not allowed to participate in important official duties, and that is the kind of circumstance that makes you 'unacceptable'."
"I knew it? Right, something with some kind of connection, usually without having to rely on me or something"
Al also comes into battle in the form of explaining to me. We can both say whatever we want, but I can't blame you for this. Not only that, because the king forgives it.
Because what we are saying is undisputed 'fact'.
Now, if we shelter Felix, that will confirm the country's assessment.
Moreover, I make it clear that 'I will speak to other countries as well'.
As a precautionary line, "His Highness Linus is fine," Felix is the only one who can drop the rating.
If you want to flatter us, immediately say, "Is that what you think?" and could get caught up in it - I'm fully willing to get caught up in it when it actually comes, and Felix advocacy is the same offense - so I can't say it in a detour.
Normally, if the royalty is told so far, there should be people around and loyal people out there, but that's not true either.
If you think calmly, Felix is limited... No, anyone can tell that 'Royal Blood' is only worth it.
But.
"You can say whatever you want, that's the scourge of the world and the dreaded Lord of Mages! I guess you don't mean anything like identity!
"... well, now what? All-you-can-eat, all-you-can-spoil, Your Highness Felix?
"Ku......"
I repeat my aversion with an extra grin to Felix, who says something that makes me smell disrespectful due to my identity.
Al also secretly deepened his grin, and I let my heart pour in anticipation of continued development.
And that expectation will never be betrayed.
"Indeed, you do not know about this world, and even your identity has become peculiar due to your track record. But for whatever reason, insults to the royal family cannot be tolerated!
"I just gave you the facts?
"... Huh! Still! No, I can't complain that they would be noble, not me, or that you would be punished more than just a civilian!
We laugh at Felix... Couscous. Face to face with both the surroundings and Felix elsewhere that will make you look suspicious.
- I even deepened my grin and gazed at the trapped prey.
All right! I took your word for it!
"Pfft, did you hear that? Al."
"Yeah, of course. Your Highness Felix himself said," No matter what the reason, the identity system is absolute. "
"Well, normally, that's normal... unless there's a 'circumstance you have to do that'. Yeah, I don't think you'll be forgiven unless you get permission, even under the circumstances."
"What the hell are you talking about...?
Turn your gaze behind Felix, who seeped your guard. Naturally, we don't answer that question...
Did you understand that?
"Huh? Oh, uncle!?
"I don't know what you're doing without saying hello to the king... I didn't know you were bothering your guests"
- One of the culprits, His Highness Linus.
An ambush sent by the demon kings appeared right beside him. Probably heard from the Demon King when he was leaving. It is also ideal for comparison.
His position is that of King's brother, who has even forfeited his inheritance rights, but is far more influential than Felix's.
And he was Felix's worst person, who was in the same position as Felix in the past but took a completely different path.
"It's a misunderstanding! Trouble, etc."
"Shut up. What do you think would happen if you scorned the king instead of the nobility of your own country and spoke to the civilian population? The King's authority is questioned, he seems to be a nobleman untouched by the royal family, and criticism is also directed at the Demon Master, who says' what are you going to do 'in the phrase where the identity system of our country is questioned!?
"Oh, I didn't mean to..."
"Don't relinquish your education and duties as a royalty and use you as a yardstick that doesn't lead to many things! No excuses!
Felix leans down with his pale complexion when His Highness Linus says he is full of pimples. There. Now Miss Sandra leaned over to worry.
If you only see it there, it would be like supporting each other's lovers. Felix also looks up and smiles faintly at Miss Sandra, holding onto her hand firmly.
……
Spotlight, you want some? Let's keep the perimeter temporarily dark, shall we?
No, because it looks like a showcase to them? Looks like we've been getting drunk about our situation from day to day, and I thought I'd give it a boost here as a performance of theatre...
"Stop it, I know how you feel."
"Let's give up now, it's going to make me laugh"
There came a halt to Al and a reprimand by the Demon King. Behavioral patterns have been completely read.
You both seem to agree with me because you're flattering me, I'm sure.
Klaus doesn't care about the two actors at all and expects them to perform. Yes, but I guess he can't say "do it" in the circumstances. I should have been able to read like a demon king, but I was silent.
And the surroundings are touched by the way they look and have no words...... not.
It's just frightening. One way or another, His Highness Linus said as a hero, "Well said!" Seen with gratitude.
Yeah, this will keep your face as a country. Sure would be delighted.
Eventually His Highness Linus bowed his head deeply as he turned this way.
"I'm sorry. I'll apologize instead."
"No, because we have a problem too"
"Never mind."
We bow our heads with apologies, too. That settles the problem behavior between us and Felix.
Now, shall we move on to the subject of fate?
"There's a reason why we shook these topics. … with Al earlier, we witnessed an incredible scene in which the samurai strongly opinionated the noble. I was wondering what the hell was going on..."
"What I heard was that His Highness Felix was forgiven. But your highness himself made it clear earlier that 'it is not acceptable for any reason'.... that lady will be punished as a sinner who worked disrespectfully on the lowlife."
"Nah!?
"Oh, no!
Felix and Miss Sandra scream at me and Al's words. But now. It was Felix himself who just said that as a royalty, and his surroundings have heard it.
"Naturally. There have been more complaints about her than before. No matter how much I was told to protect the Lord, there is a way to protect him based on his position. Never forget who you are."
"If you allow it, the identity system itself will cease to exist, and if His Highness Felix is discretionary, the royal family will prove that 'if it's convenient for you, you can ignore even the laws of the country'."
I can't seem to argue with His Highness Linus and my exchange.... It's obvious.
However, it is possible that Felix will speak for me, so I will have to take the lead.
"If... His Highness Felix may differ in this punishment"
This way, look at Felix and the others. Al has been watching the two of them to monitor their behavior, and His Highness Linus imitated me and turned his gaze to them.
They seem to be in mild confusion, but they tremble when they get a glance.
"I guess both of you will have to shoulder this responsibility. In that case, it's not just the samurai's sin, it's punishable as a disturbing element for the country...... no, you can also think of being disposed of. You can never just leave it like this."
"Exactly. The royal authority is strong. Therefore, if you wave your emotions as they are, it will be a terrible thing. It's no exception whether you're a king or not, you're punished because it's the country you're supposed to protect"
You know the end of those called tyrants, don't you? and continued, Felix swallowed the objection completely.
You didn't think they'd say that much, but what Felix did was no different than a tyrant. It's just a matter of scale, because what matters is that you 'exercised your rights as a royalty without understanding the impact at all and remaining in your personal emotions'.
"I don't approve of objections. If you disagree, be prepared for that punishment."
"... ok, ok"
"No!? Your Highness......"
Sandra, listen to me.
Is it because you're a dear friend, or do you have the burden of being your own? Miss Sandra seems to want to do something to help the samurai, but Felix doesn't snort.
No, you must have realized from self-preservation that you couldn't.
So, shall I give you a little explanation of the situation? If you ask, she'll shut up, too.
"Can you be eligible for that, too? Dear Sandra."
"Huh?"
"It is no surprise that you should also be subjected to some punishment. His Highness Felix has only been missed for allowing the lady to behave."
Miss Sandra, who is suddenly called out and sees me properly. As far as the look on his face was concerned, he still didn't seem to realize the status quo.
"It was originally caused by you. Besides, if you yourself apologized for the samurai's disrespect, you would still have had the means to save her."
"So, but..."
"Mizuki is right. Isn't it the Lord's duty to apologize for the disrespect of the Samurai? Besides, you are nothing more than a Viscount Lady, whether you are his fiancée or not. The aristocratic identity system applies to you, too."
"Or will you tell His Highness Felix? If you were a royal fiancée, did you already think you were on par with the royal family? You're so arrogant."
"No! I don't think so!
Miss Sandra responds immediately to my and Al's allegations. But I just deny it and have no objections.
I guess she didn't understand that she was' just being treated special '. Felix and his mother said they deserved it.
"It is not uncommon, for example, for royal and aristocratic engagements to be destroyed. So if you're not married, you're only in your original capacity, right?
"With that in mind, if you wish to thank the samurai... that is the very bad girl in the story. I can't believe you're trying to make me exercise my powers to fulfill myself."
"That, is..."
"If we're cute, we don't pinch our mouths. Do you think the Viscount's wife is better than the law of the land?
Description of Al's treatment of his fiancée, the Duke's son, and the warning 'Don't pinch your mouth any more', and my words' The Bad Girl of the Story itself '.
You just understood, she can't find the words to say and lean down. I know you want to help me with emotions, but if I'm explained so far, I can clearly understand that I'm next.
Well, Felix seems to be the only one who can help. You're a bad boy.
The past remains the same. All the sins of a samurai and her stupidity could have been prevented if only there was responsibility and awareness of her position.
I guess the number of complaints is too high even if you miss it once or twice. "Why do they say that," he reflected, and if he had listened to words other than Felix and the others, there would still have been a different ending.
"Detain that samurai."
The voice of His Highness Linus, who commands the knight who had refrained, sounds cold.
Miss Sandra quietly zeroed her tears as Felix held her tight.
It's too early to cry, isn't it? Miss Sandra?
- Because you can't get away with more than becoming the 'star' of the story.
