The Magician Wants Normality
My first sale was in Irfena.
- at Irfena (Erschon perspective)
In front of me is the Dukes of Alogancia and Miss Leelier. And a little further away, Miss Leelier's fiancée, 'It Was', the knight of Alberda, is holding back as their escort.
It is almost impossible to dissolve the engagement from him, so it is probably because Miss Leelier considered 'securing an escape route (= marriage to a nobleman on the border)' as part of her self-preservation.
It's a sure hand in the sense of escaping King Kivela's lap...... Well, you won't be able to live like before, but did you still think it was better than being right next to King Kivela?
This is the same with Alberda, so I guess you noticed the danger of marrying him. Whatever, the punishment for him is coming.
Well, he can be a scandal, too, and the fact that 'he was dumped by his fiancée' can be done, so in that sense, maybe it's each other.
If this disturbance is justified, it can also be argued that the dissolution of the engagement is reasonable. If you decide to take responsibility for the disturbance and fall in love with it, you may get sympathy from those who are not familiar with the situation.
I think these places are still 'noble'. Cutting someone off from self-preservation, and performing impression manipulations, is not uncommon in the aristocracy.
With King Alberda, who gave me permission to engage, I wouldn't say anything annoying. With ourselves, the class who understands such things... because it's called "the same kind".
……
Around Lord Glenn, you may be laughing a lot at the dissolution of their engagement. He is subtly similar to Mizuki, so I can't abandon the possibility that he is satisfied with the end of a knight trampling or kicking.
With that in mind, I turn once again to The People Who Came to Sell Picture Books. Needless to say, everyone, you're not looking well soon. Are the people in the Duke of Alogancia in particular threatened?
But that was it. They seem to be as conscious about self preservation as ever, and I guess they're desperate to buy this one unsatisfactory.
... No, the knight of Alberda - Lüze, something like that. He doesn't seem as foolish as the Duke's man, and for once I see the colour of reflection.
Are you worried about the future that makes you give up somewhere? Or... because I now understand what I have done.
Either way, I'm sure you're seeing the most reality. At least not because of the futile engagement to Miss Leary. I can't even feel the shards, such as the lack of training for Miss Leary.
"… this is what it is all about"
Miss Leelier smiles, who was explaining the picture book. While doing so, samples were handed out by the hands of the Dukes.
As a matter of fact, all of these faces have grasped the contents of the picture books. Both the creator of the picture book, Mizuki, and the merchants involved in the sale, belong to our country.
Still showing willingness to buy...... for restraint on them. The act of "buying a picture book" is also mandatory in the sense of obtaining information about a breach of engagement in Alberda.
Even though we are not directly involved, our country is suspected of being involved.
In order not to be said to have pulled a thread in the back, etc., the "cut (= picture book) that led to the gathering of information" is necessary.
As long as there's a cut, there's an excuse to say, 'As part of the gathering of information, I asked Mizuki and the merchants about it.' I'm also cordial with King Alberda, so even with that information over there, they won't be suspicious.
The point is, there's no doubt about the backwork in this case. Well... in addition to pre-construction, I also have the purpose of 'setting up an opportunity to speak directly with them in front of me'.
While I look through the book handed to me as a sample, this face - Charlene, Clarence, Argent, Klaus, and I - looks at who sets me up first.
Klaus and Al refrain from joining the conversation as knights... but somewhere interesting they watched us rush. I get spooked inside by the appearance of such childhood tamers.
'I know everything because I was at the nightclub' - at least that's what Miss Leelier and I would think. It must be a really uncomfortable situation for those who have to open picture books.
I know that, but I'm here with no food on my face. Both of you, you have a bad personality inside.
That's crazy. I should have looked more, more decent before Mizuki arrived.
I think so, trying to remember before...... I realize that their such attitude was to protect me.
Back then, I didn't even show a few gaps, and it wasn't just me, but the Al's and the others were in a state of constant care. There can't be, like, room to enjoy the situation.
If you feel different now, then I guess that means... that I and they could afford to enjoy these places.
It goes without saying that it is thanks to Mizuki. I regret it somehow, though, so I wouldn't be honest with you about it.
With that in mind, some fun voice arrived in my ear.
"Hey, Master Leary? What do you think of this story? I've been telling these stories since I was a kid. It's like empathizing with women, so I'd like to hear your thoughts."
…… Wow, I... "
"Heh heh... can you take your time thinking about it? … if you can answer me."
It was Charline who smiled, but did not hesitate to cut in. On her chest, naturally, there are ornaments embedded with stones imitating roses - demonic props made by Mizuki.
But that won't be the only reason Miss Leelier and the others are threatening Charline. In one way or another, he seemed wary of Charline's questioning.
Charlene finds that to be a very difficult thing to answer. While I knew it, I was asking for a 'third-party opinion' by fronting about 'what to empathize with women'.
Miss Leelier, who was questioned, has also guessed it, causing her face to cramp.... naturally. Because the "two people who forcibly broke their engagement" that comes out at the beginning of the picture book, if it's a general interpretation, is a standing position as villains.
If you show bad feelings for those two, Miss Leelier and the others will have 'known it was a bad thing'.
You can also accept that you have deliberately confused Alberda, so it is imperative that you buy King Kivera's wrath on the day it is also reported to Kivera.
Currently, what the ladies of Leelier fear most should be 'buying King Kivella's wrath'... we will have to squeeze our wits and look for an answer that is not obvious.
Besides, Charline didn't threaten you. I just asked the people who came to the sales for their thoughts...!
That's right, Charline. Sometimes Mizuki just tells me s.
An arm that spiritually drives the opponent is a splendidly poisonous couple's crack.
Note that Clarence, another of those poisonous couples, may smile at his wife's sharp hand.
You look nice, but Clarence is Charlene's kind. At matrimony, with a past that warned his surroundings with 'Don't Mix, Danger', he is now more feared by the knights than by the Knights Commander.
So it is pointless to hear 'what have you done', etc.
Because Clarence was' just having the same days as usual '.
In other words, for Clarence, 'the state of the vegetables'. It's nature because it's soft in the waist and polite in the language...... no, you think the shock is awesome when you learn about the character of the vegetables?
Many have their hearts broken by his words, which are spinned flat… and because it is Clarence who, instead of working them, is even worse, the legend of terror pervades them in a different sense than Mizki.
There's no way Clarence, whose usual appearance just smiles and watches his wife brave.
"Speaking of which, I wanted to ask you something, too.... Oh, I'll ask you as an escort"
"... oh yes, what is it"
Unlike Miss Leary, even though she was somewhat freaked out, Lüze turned to Clarence. To that appearance, Clarence asks calmly, even though she looks a little unexpected.
"The man who offered to break his engagement is a knight, but what the hell do you think he went for a knight?
"What?"
Was it an unexpected question, Lüze raised her voice with a frightened face. But this inquiry doesn't make sense to me either.
Running a glimpse into Al and Klaus, they seem to have figured out what it means. When I noticed my gaze, I had turned my gaze to say, 'Shut up and watch'.
……
Well, you mean "knights know what that means"?
I feel subtly hubbled and not funny, but apparently Lüze needs this for questioning. I just don't seem to know what it means to be asked, though, because Rüze at the time also exposes confusion.
"Shall I tell you a little bit about me," Clarence sighed out in Lüze's confusion.
"I was born in the Count's house, but if you wanted it for your wife, Duke's Lady. Besides, you're the one who needs that talent from the country. Of course, every day with me, I continued to work hard, but my achievements since I became a full knight were known."
That's a story anyone who knows about this couple knows. In addition to Clarence having a lower title, he is a knight… it would be if he saved the battle or the royalty that can be targeted for the greatest feat.
When that happens, I really get inferior credit compared to Charline. It's because the country is undisturbed that there's no place to be active.
"Someone told the king to kiss his mouth. Some advised me that I should make use of my talents in diplomacy, not knighthood. But... I refused."
"Why, even if I ask?
"In a nutshell, it would be my own will. Most importantly, I swore allegiance to His Majesty to the sword once… I am not willing to differ in that oath, however much for the marriage I wanted myself to. My loyalty is not so light."
"Light, y...?
"Yes. It is only a disgrace that a man who has sworn to be His Majesty's sword can easily vary that vow. Well, I am honored to be a Kingsguard.... A knight is one who serves the 'only'. How can I take my oath to the Lord lightly?"
In Clarence's words, Luce seemed to have no words to return. But I take that for granted, too.
He has betrayed King Alberda while in the position of Kingsguard. Clarence's words don't matter, it hurts my ears.
As a matter of fact, they said Clarence would also be a civilian and be able to accomplish the feat. But he ran out of words, 'As a knight, I want to be ashamed of her'.
...... but that doesn't end with Clarence.
I can't tell Luce that she's taking Clarence's words seriously, but it's also true that Clarence really didn't mind shaping them at the time.
In the end, Clarence also made it his own strength to 'have a beneficial connection for the country'.
It is the summons of a bad friend as a student, the Assistant Chancellor of Carlossa.
It was fortunate that at the time we were sometimes exposed to the threat of Kivera, and also at a time when a little cohesion with the surrounding countries was required.
The connection to Celian Orcott, the prime minister's real son and also an assistant prime minister himself, was judged 'necessary for the country', and with Clarence's accomplishments until then, His Majesty held the reins of the two marriages.
It should be noted that this series of events established Clarence's position as Brain of Kingsguard. What is required of a nation is strength in many ways… Wisdom is a fine weapon.
Sometimes, more than being a Kingsguard, your position will be against those above you. On rare occasions, Clarence was a very convenient person because he might be asked to cut through the scene as a knight.
His Majesty also says he appreciated Clarence's brains and connections, which he understands and values, and his connection to the Duke's family, which he will gain by marriage.
Clarence restrained himself from being a knight, but not from strength by weapons. They sold themselves in by showing their effectiveness in various ways around them.
It was a triumph of wit...... I can easily predict what the surroundings thought of given what Mizuki is currently getting. That's who Charline wanted from her husband.
……
There seemed to be a certain number of people who feared the birth of such Kingsguard knights. Well, it's a good thing for the royal family and country...... maybe.
"The knight is' the Lord is what he is'. So who the hell are the knights of this story swearing allegiance to? Even if you become a knight without loyalty, it will serve your country… your ambitions will not come true unless you are appreciated by the king"
"Huh..."
"If you just want to be appreciated, recognition from your superiors, colleagues, and the people is enough. But if it connects to merit, it is imperative that you acknowledge it from the King. 'Giving' would be 'only the Lord can do', wouldn't it?
- The knight of the story, who does not swear allegiance to the king who is supposed to be the Lord, wanted to serve 'who', right?
To Clarence's words so tightened, Lüze is pale in the face. But I don't think we have a choice.
He probably didn't come to the impression that 'Becoming a Kingsguard Knight' was his goal and that loyalty was imperative there.
If you have someone to be loyal to besides Lord Wilfred, you've just become a Kingsguard. At least, you won't be closing in on anyone who's against the king.
That means I could have been a Kingsguard.
"Being a Kingsguard would certainly be an honor. But if that is a goal in itself, then hopes will already be fulfilled. I think the Knight of the Story has lost sight of his goals. If he has a chance to start over, he should also think about choosing a different path."
……
Lüze leans without words. Seeing as it's not already "The Knight of Stories," it's "About Lüze Himself," but no one talks... I guess it was "Sermon" by Clarence. Though I could have said whatever I wanted.
It is up to Lüze to make it a 'word of mind' or to take it as advice to start over. We hear from King Alberda about his future, so maybe it's an encouragement to Clarence, who was in a very similar position.
"Hehe, looks like Master Rüze can think for himself.... Come on, Master Leelier? Why don't you answer what I asked you? You guys were in the book business, weren't you?
"Ha... yes"
"If so, please answer me."
Feel the consciousness of everyone who was more suited to Luce turn to herself, or Miss Leelier makes Charline jump on her shoulders at the inquiry.
In contrast, Charline smiles flashly. She doesn't seem willing to loosen her pursuit hand, even if her prey is constricting.
Miss Leelier seemed desperate to think of an answer as to whether she felt it, too.
"Wow... I'm impressed by the kindness of Princess Rose"
"Well, where?
"I think about the people around me rather than being sad..."
Trembling, but still telling you what it's like to feel free, Miss Leelier. Even though it's awkward, I guess I'm not retarded with her because I find the most difficult answer I can.
It's just that she's grown too much. If I had behaved in a way that suited my height, I would have done just about the perception of 'arrogant, but permissible position'.
Miss Leelier's cause of defeat is: 'When even royalty comes to mind, it's something I was proud of'.
The point is, the person who sold the fight was bad. Even though King Quivera had no courage to sell her fights, she treated a country called Alberda, and the king, in an understated manner. The other person can't be angry.
In the first place, King Alberda has Lord Glenn on it. He is similar to Mizuki, so it is likely that the inside was mad, even if he seemed quiet. Well, when you sell a fight to someone like that, you impress me the other way around.
"Well, Master Lilier says, 'I can think of something like that,' right?
"Yes, sir"
Charline, who speaks with a smile, but his eyes are slightly glanced at with a view to his prey.
"So you can understand what kind of appreciation 'I don't even think about that extent', 'I sold my fights to kings of other countries', 'I shamed my own kings', 'A lady who can only be shamed' will be given?
Miss Leelier's eyes open to the dislike of a direct ball. But this is not the end of the beauty poison.
"Yeah, yeah, you know what? They also think about the story that made her the main character. I think it's a very good thing. 'Cause you're rarely actually such a' fool ', are you? And if you're a character in a picture book, you can have honest thoughts with everyone."
"Oh, I'm sure you do. If it exists, your identity or fence will get in the way and you won't be able to say. That is why it will grow and become irrevocable. That would be a good lesson."
"Right, sir. Even if it were a metaphorical truth story, it wouldn't raise a protest from the person… too embarrassing."
To the chase of Charline and Clarence, Miss Leelier was in tears. Still, I can't say anything extra... because this is the place for book sales.
And.
How can I protest, exactly as Charlene just said, 'It's like saying it's a true story and it's about me'?
The Dukes and I would understand that the conversation between the two is too direct balloon loathing, but that's probably why we can't talk.
Clarence & Charlene are the ones who know that and run it.
That is the 'poisoned couple' that even Irfena is afraid of.
"Miss Leary. Are you going to keep selling picture books? I think you can call me anywhere you want to go.
"Well, Your Highness. It's sweet of you to bother giving me advice. Those who consign themselves to your intimidation and don't even turn their faces."
"Wouldn't that be a choice? Charlene, I never talk to them in the first place."
"Oh."
The only thing that bothered me was, 'Did my stupid cat beat you up by the time of the night club, without skin?'
If you are overstationed, you must apologize to King Kivera. Isn't that your responsibility as an owner?
So... I'm not as interested in them as I think in them. It's not worth it.
