The Magician Wants Normality

― ― Barakshin Royal Castle · In a certain room (Charlene viewpoint)

“Nice to meet you, my name is Katrina.”

The daughter brought by Count Barrios - you must be young, and I'm going to treat her as a "daughter" - certainly looked "younger" than she was.

--Yeah, I think it's really "cute".

Although it is not the position you wanted, it seems that you were once married and were taken over by the royal family as a side room.

It seems that your child was also born, and even if you make a mistake, it won't say "cute".

With that in mind, I called Katrina "the cute one".

Is it "dreamy and pure" if you say it well, or "invisible" if you say it badly?

To put it plainly, existence is too light.

Even when you talk to someone in a side room in another country, even if you have a pleasant conversation, it involves a certain amount of tension.

You need to be careful about your casual words, attitudes, and the information that you bring… until you know how it's going to be received.

Whatever you say, royalty is sometimes a more heavy and demanding position than nobility.

If their trivial remarks trigger a battle or lead to damage to the national interest, the nobility will have to be more careful about what they say and do.

It is the same as the person in the side room.Many of them have made some kind of contribution to their country, so it's not just a matter of having children.

But if he bear a son of the king, then he or his father shall be the backbone of his son; and if he think of a son, he shall not be a foolish mother.

It's not uncommon in any country to fight for power for the next king, but it's normal in the world for fools to be eliminated.

Knowing such a background, I still think that a certain level of preparation and talent is necessary to be in the position of "side room".

However... if the situation in the country is unstable, we cannot afford to fight for power.

This, in contrast to Ilfena, was no exception.The "Respect the Proven" temperament in Japan was even stronger because it was a country that was constantly targeted by Kivera.

Especially if you're older than me.The madness of the war was so intense that it was crushed by its own inhabitants.

... but Varaxine was in a bit of a special situation.

Ilfena and Alberda were shielded from the threat of Kivera.

Well, that's probably why there was an internal power struggle.

To be honest, I think it was a big thing that Katrina was fulfilling her responsibilities without any problems.

Originally, the side room was a position like the Queen's assistant.Sometimes the Queen can't take over her responsibilities, so an excellent side room would have considerable influence.

If Lord Katrina had been such a person... the Church might still be competing with the Royalists without being cut off.

It's a more privileged environment than ever before, with princes and church nobles united behind it.

If I had made a mistake, it might have really been the starting point for ruling the royal family."With the church nobles, you must have been expecting Master Sakatrina...!"

It was Katrina herself who shattered such a future.

In a sense, the royal family is the greatest meritorious worker.

With a secret gaze, Katrina seemed to be curious about my husband.

Milord smiled calmly, but his gaze seemed to be somewhat cold.As a matter of fact, other than Katrina, I'm on the alert for you.

Still, you're going to give me your first hand, Milord. It seems that you're still in my position as my escort.

Such a husband's care and deep understanding of me makes you smile in your mouth.

Fufu... that's my Milord.

It seems that Katrina has caught Katrina's attention moderately, and that she is intrigued.According to the information from Al and the others, they are 'vulnerable to nice men'.

Even with me, I'm not here to tell a difficult story this time, so it's convenient for Katrina to expose her true nature.

Only this time, being a "good girl" is not interesting.

Jealous of Master Katrina, who is conscious of Milord?

Does it make you uncomfortable to send an unfaithful gaze, your exclusive desire for Milord?

There's no need for either... no, it's impossible!

After all, I am the one who was chosen and begged by Milord.

I didn't choose it or flirt with it.'Milord' wanted me.

With me, the Duchess of Bashre... I'm not going to sell myself cheap.I am proud to have worked so hard and achieved results.

Why am I afraid that I won't be satisfied at all...?Rather than a threat, I don't even feel the need to recognize it as one of the obstacles.

Now, shall we talk about it?

Nice to meet you, Katrina-sama. My name is Charlene Bachelet and I'm from Ilfena.This is my husband, Clarence. This time, I'm accompanying you as an escort. "

"My name is Clarence."

Milord smiles and calls himself, but he doesn't say 'thank you'.... apparently, Katrina-sama didn't even get the slightest interest.

"This is...... the first time I've seen you. My name is Katrina.I used to live in the Royal Castle as a side room until a while ago, but now I'm back at my parents' house. "

"Oh......"

I'm a little shocked by Katrina, who said "ex-side room" to herself.

Oh my... according to Al's information, "I didn't want to be a side room."

Corner, I went back to my parents' house.You should not talk about these things in silence, but only do what you do now.

Katrina doesn't seem to notice, but you shouldn't say two things: "former side room" and "returning to my parents' house".It's like being ashamed.

The point is, "Although I gave birth to a prince as a side room, there was no one who wanted to give it to me, so I came back."

Well, you don't have to humiliate yourself like that.

Eh!?

Lady Katrina gave me a carefree look.

"If you were a side room man, you would have a dominant face for the nobility, right?"Even though you gave birth to a child, you're still young.Originally, there would be a lot of attraction... 'back to my parents', etc. "

"Ah...!"

Katrina-sama shouted as she gradually realized it, but I didn't forgive her.

"You can only hear 'I'm back'."It doesn't have a pickup, it just sounds disassociated. ”

"No, that's not true!"I didn't want to be a side room!So this is the best thing for me! ”

However, it seems that Katrina-sama wants to insist on "what she wanted".

Ufufu, it's not interesting if you don't.It's a bargaining matter, but it's a bad thing to get caught up in the opponent easily.

... but...

But be careful, Master Katrina.

It's important to scratch your feet, but just scratching your feet makes your position worse.

Well, what's your future outlook?

Huh?

"As I mentioned earlier, the networks, achievements, and lessons learned in the side room are not only useful for many things, but also a strength.Since you chose to return to your parents' home, are you looking forward to the next...? "

It's not mean, it's natural.It is also expected to be similar because it is called "the flower of the social world".

To be recognized by many and to reign as a deceiver of your daughter, you will need considerable strength.

... that's why people who have a past called "social flowers" are terrified.

People can't stay young forever.However, some people have achieved so many achievements over the years that they will become the main town of the country.

If you become a lady who has connections with such people and has personal connections, you can't be fooled by things like "a woman who has lost her youth".

Of course, it is also important to maintain beauty, but because you are a masterpiece who has survived the vicious swirling social world with a smile, you will not be able to win against a bad man.

It was very rude to treat such people and Katrina side by side.Katrina-sama feels only dissatisfaction with the political marriage that "I didn't like the side room position".

"Would you mind telling me?" What are you going to do in the future?

"Um, yeah, right... but first of all, I want to fall in love.I don't want to be a side room, I want to be a loving couple. ”

Well, that's nice!

If she let out a smile, Katrina looked at her with relief.

……

Yes, Master Katrina, but... Master Katrina?Your father has a pale face... is that okay?

I didn't think you'd say "I didn't want to be a side room" in front of high nobility in another country, but did you give me any advice in advance?

It can't be helped, can I teach you this?

"But, Katrina-sama? Don't tell me you didn't want to be a side room."Your dissatisfaction with His Majesty King Barakshin and your disrespect for the royal family... that's what I'm going to take it for granted. "

"Eh, ah, ah, yeah..."

Even though I thought I had the approval, Katrina was confused as to whether it was unexpected that it had changed into a whisper.

"Please be careful. Some of you may think that you are" a fool who has been sent to the nobility of the church and has returned without fulfilling his role "."

Nah!?

“What are you surprised about?"Unwanted Marriage" "Unwanted Side Room" means "Political Marriage".Besides, you said, "I admire couples who love each other", right?Including your family home, it's kind of like publicly saying "church nobleman's token". "

"That's it!? Besides, it's even worse that it was a political marriage!"

Apparently, Katrina didn't seem to understand one thing at a time.

With a sigh, I turned to Katrina-sama to see the pathetic thing.

"There are many political marriages, and no one bothers to express their dissatisfaction with His Majesty the King."You're going to be guilty of disrespect.Not only that, but you can also investigate Katrina herself and her surroundings.Do you mind? It's important that you don't get pushed and get interested in things that are troubling you. "

"That's... yes, but..."

"If there is any inconvenience to the royal family, you may be punished as the culprit."I will not divulge the ugliness of my parents' home to the outside, even with the nobility. "

In other words, 'the royal stain could be disposed of'.

Besides that, do you say it is a reason for wanting to cut off the power of church nobles?

Either way, as long as your family is a church noble, there's going to be a lot of criticism from within.

Well... I can't say you have a good personality when you bother to make me realize it.

"Lady Katrina seems to want a new love."You have to be careful. "

Yes, yes.

"But... I'm relieved."

Huh?

Katrina-sama was leaning her neck at the words she needed to say.

“What I've said is that everything was in the report."As a nobleman of the church, I couldn't do anything naughty and came back" is a scandalous story.However, Katrina-sama was only asked to be free to look for love. ”

That's why I said "nice" earlier.

As she continued, Katrina's eyes glowed and nodded strongly.

“Yes! Yes, that's right!I want to fall in love! "

"Compared to me, it belongs to a woman.I know you like it.That's why you wanted to throw away your side room and your church nobleman pawn and return to being a woman. "

"Yes...! I'm glad Master Charlene understood!"

"Oh, I was able to speak to Master Katrina in person."Since you also affirmed it, let me deny the nonsense."Katrina chose to fall in love even though she wanted to be an ugly story, so she abandoned everything."I'll tell Ilfena that too, so those who are unfaithful will talk. "

Please!

"Yes, of course... because from now on, I will not shake off the position of 'Mother of the Fourth Prince Felix'"

As soon as I told you so, Katrina-sama's smile froze.

"I've been chosen to fall in love as an individual... I've heard that Felix already has a wife and is beginning to take a new path."I think it's great that after Katrina raised her son and saw him off to a new home, she can disconnect from the royal family and begin to fall in love as an individual. ”

"That's... ah, but I'm her mother..."

"Doesn't Master Felix already have another family?"With my child's independence, didn't you try to take a new path? "

Katrina could not seem to cut off Felix yet.You're intimately shocked by this appearance.

I deliberately made a sad face and stared at Master Katrina with some criticism.

”Or... you said you were so eager to 'fall in love', but would you use what you got as a side room?”

"She's my son!"

"More than that, you must have the blood of His Majesty King Barakshin."At least, that's what the public perceives.That's why I praised Katrina... 'I decided to walk my own life until I let go of my beneficial position as a nobleman as [mother of the former prince]'. "

In fact, we know that you weren't prepared for that.But... it's already too late.

Milord, you heard about this, right?

"Yes, of course, Charlene. As an aristocrat, I may be different, but I'm also in love with you and I'll support those who scratch your feet..."

We, the official messengers of Ilfena, have received a pledge from Lord Katrina.

I'm not the one who doesn't realize it.With a deep nod, I was told that I would support Master Katrina, and that I was also responsible for guiding her.

"That's right. Milord worked very hard."

"With everyone's help, I am aware of the current situation, but I am desperately trying to match you."I think it was because of that effort that we were all blessed. ”

Katrina was the first to change her complexion to say "goodbye to my son".

However, while listening to me and Milord, did you project yourself?... I gradually realized that you were drawn to our story.

I saw the success story of Milord and I, and I heard the word "support".

Katrina, who longs for love like Mika, will be dazzled by the event that "a lovely man strives for himself and courtships".

"Master Katrina, I will give you one piece of advice."Hone yourself.There are only lovely women to attract attention...... so you can be on the side of begging for love. "

"Yes... yes, that's right, Master Charlene.I'll do my best! "

"Yeah, have a nice love."

The Count of Barrios may want to silence his daughter, but I am the official messenger from Ilfena... I can't say anything strange.

I secretly smiled at the count's appearance.

Oh my... you must be the one who left my daughter to be easily guided.

I say, 'Be careful what you say'.

While listening to that, Katrina-sama... couldn't be blamed.

From the previous incident and the battle with Mizuki-sama, the religious nobility should have learned the horror of verbal guidance...?

Milord and I secretly exchanged gazes and smiled deeply.

My husband is a nice man, isn't he?Katrina, please find the right mate for you.
