The Magician Wants Normality

Collection of stories 32

One of the stories is "The [Curse] bequeathed to her" (from the perspective of King Harvis)

When I saw the footage that came from Ilfena, it was unspoken and solid.

Who remembers in Harvis? Hmm... to be clear, there aren't many of them. The nanny has passed away, her mother hasn't remembered, and she hasn't even met the other brothers. ”

But I love the Queen and the Prime Minister's grandfather.

”After all, they never asked me for [what your mother wanted].”

Isn't that what [you looked at me]?

Eh, Father?

It was my mother and [Mother's request] that my father was important, not mine.

The queen and the prime minister looked at the footage with a smile and a smile of joy at Agnos's words, but I didn't get it.

Even though I wasn't as close as the deceased nanny, I thought I cared for Agnos.

I thought I loved and protected my mother who had already died and my estranged mother's family...! "

But now I'm made to realize that my pride is a mistake.

I... have you really cared about Agnos? Didn't Agnos just take care of the memories of her deceased side room as if it were his only base and try to keep his promise to her?

One of the factors that makes it seem that way is what the queen told us in Ilfena.

”With her, a woman in love... and because she's your wife, it's not a matter of course.”

"After being in love like Mika Tsubaki, I want a happy marriage. However, your Majesty already has a wife and a child called me, right? Why do you think you don't have a sense of confrontation?”

If what the emperor knows is true, it's true that he's scorched by jealousy. If I had a child, I wouldn't be able to forget it even after I got mad... I think I had that kind of feeling. "

A side of her that I don't know, spoken from the mouth of the queen.

I just thought she wished for me and my child and for the happiness of that child, Agnos.

But if you believe the queen's words... 'She used my son, Agnos, to persuade her not to forget herself'.

The desire for Agnos' happiness must be real. But if you ask me if I was purely hoping for that... I'm stuck with answers.

People are not just pure faces, like the characters of Ogasaki.

Because... the characters of Mika Tsubaki are determined by the "role to create a story", and "there are no other elements".

It would be easy to understand around Goga Kaoru for children. It is said that it has been tampered with, or it has been compiled in a rather general way, and there is no detailed depiction.

There was no detailed depiction of the country even if it became a struggle between them, and it was included in the sentence "We won the battle".

The word "princess in distress" contains such things as lamentation and life-threatening things.

If you don't read it... if you don't know the realities of these situations, you don't know how real they are.

That's why even children can read Mikazuki with peace of mind. There's no way a young child would know such circumstances.

Even though I should have thought so, I thought she was only pretty. Unaware of the public because of their illness, they said that they were loved by their families in the boxyard.

……

For now, I don't think she's the reason I didn't want to let go. Even I was a fool because I was a rare person who gave me words of praise.

I must have been dependent on her, while thinking, 'I have to protect her.'

And... she must have seen through my cunning. That's why I thought my [curse] would succeed.

The prospectus succeeded and I never forgot her.

Her wish to remain my beloved after her death was fulfilled!

... As a result, I lost my position as the father of Agnos.

I remember the words of Agnos in the video. The Agnos in the video just seemed to be honest about what he had heard.

Agnos is not lying.... no, I shouldn't have to tell a lie.

Even if you argue, there is no such thing as a memorable memory of the parents and children who have the basis for it. It may sound good to say that [he prioritized his duty as king], but no one would be convinced by the current tragedy of Harvis.

Please, even after I passed away, I still remember.

Her voice echoes in the memories.

My prince, who fell in love like Ogasaki.

Because it's pure, it always thought of me. However, did the word "prince" in her mouth really refer to me in reality?

If you had unconsciously included the meaning of "a special being who only loves you", like the "character of Mika Kaoru"...

……

What she needed... was really [me]?

Didn't you just want the [Prince of Ideals] to fulfill your wish of [wishing for love like Oga Tsubaki]?

I don't know... I can't question her now.

But still.

Now I have no choice but to assume that "she needed me"...



The second part of the story, "Ilfena in those days" (from the perspective of His Royal Highness Elshion)

"My father liked Mizuki..."

Mizuki and some of the other knights are now going to Barakshin's dining room, where they keep on fooling around.

Of course, "I like it" is like loving a cat that likes to play pranks. However, the [mischief] is not as cute as an ordinary cat.

However, from my father's point of view, I perceived [an interesting and capable child]. The supreme authority in our country, it seems, was a man with a wide heart.

What now?

It is Klaus who is here with me, who brings a stunned gaze. Apparently, there was still work to be done, so I missed this trip.

Well, the Black Knights, including Klaus, were punished for failing to protect me from the assault, so I might have no choice.

In other words, they were cooperating closely with Mizuki even during the cautionary period, so in their case, they are said to be deserving.

"Originally, Mizuki made sweets and dishes." It's impossible to tell you not to be interested. "

"Ugh...! Well, that's because I tried to make Mizuki worth a little bit..."

"There are other reasons, such as Mizuki's report." You may not have noticed, but whoever heard it was [my child proud]? Elle "

"Guu..."

I couldn't argue with Klaus's words. That said, it is true that it was said that "it seems that you had a competent child breeding, including the dislike."

Those people were well exposed to Mizuki's achievements and my nostalgia, and showed that there was no danger. Apparently, I was proud to hear it.

I... I certainly don't deny that I took that attitude! Alright, you said you boasted to the annoying people that the child who calls himself my subordinate is competent...!

"The more we call this place 'the land of the powerful', the more we still value strength." And the higher you go, the stronger your tendency is. "

Well... that's what it's going to be.

"For such people, 'The wizards of the otherworld are as nostalgic as their cats.' My child must be good. My child will be cute. I envy you! 'That said, there's no way I wouldn't be interested."

"No, I didn't say that!?"

Klaus pushed in...... No, all the knights here had warm eyes.

"At some point, I said that the twins were good." "Your Highness, you're bragging about treating Mizuki like a stupid cat. You look like a parent cat, when you're praised by a kitten."

Nah!?

"We were very convinced." And then I thought, "Sure, just like that."

"No, let's just say I'm your mainstay." I hope you're not convinced. "

While weakened, Klaus shrugged his shoulders as he told his childhood friend without hesitation, saying, "It can't be helped."

"I can't. Look, El." Aristocrats often have dogs and cats. That's why cats are a passionate animal. "

Well, dogs are often kept as watchdogs.

"That's why many people are familiar with cats."... you guys are like cats in a lot of ways. That's why Elle's valuation has changed dramatically in the past year. ”

"...... Next to the Demon King is the Parent Cat."

"Isn't it nice to be peaceful?" Leaving the kitten alone is more fierce than a demon king in a bad story. "

"I don't know about the nickname" "Devil King" ", but I wonder about the" "Parent Cat" "..."

"At least with the guardian."

"Give up. Besides... he was wearing cat ears, right?" At that time, we were often asked... "I knew it was a human cat or something."

"I'll deny that, Klaus." Mizuki, you're human. "

"I think you should treat me like a freak cat," I replied. I didn't feel uncomfortable when my ears grew. "

”Let's deny it!”

Apparently, Mizuki's treatment of cats was also a shadow of a knight. Well, rather than being treated as a monster in another world, it would mean better.

……

Father, you really don't think Mizuki is a masquerading cat, do you? It's half funny, and I'm scared to shake a cat or something.
