The Marquis’ Daughter Acts As A Pawn

The sun has not yet risen, and the sky remains stained with dawn.

At a time when the castle workers have not yet awakened, me and Edward will depart for the Diaghilev Empire.

Marie and Monica carry their luggage in a two-headed carriage with the crest of the Kingdom of Roland. Master Keel was sitting on your podium and checking his horse's health.

"... you're going, Your Highness, Anna"

"What, that. It wasn't Linus who pushed us to go to the Diaghilev Empire."

The only two people who came to see me off were Linus and Master Cyrus, who looked grumpy.

It would be quite a qualitative sight to drop off the prince and the marquis.

"Personal feelings are different when you behave as a public servant."

"... I know."

If you come to see me off, I'll hold you back.

So I guess my father will not come to see me off.

(... I wonder if it's my fault that I miss you. Even though I can't help it because I'm on a mission, I still can't even see Vee)

As I was getting sentimental, Edward, who noticed it as soon as possible, shook my hand.

"Neither Father nor Mother, nor Marquis Lewis, came to see us off to respect our will. That's all we're talking about. Linus must have convinced me to come. Yeah, and Cyrus, of course, wouldn't he?

…………

Master Cyrus glanced at me and Edward with a sword swallowing gaze more than he had ever seen before.

When the mighty Cyrus stares at me, I can't calm my heart either. To be honest, I'm so scared.

(Dear Cyrus... I'm so mad at you, Edward! I'm not convinced at all)

Ask Edward what I mean with my eyes, but he just grins like a belly-black. Between Edward and Lady Cyrus, there is a one-touch, immediate air flow.

"Look, Cyrus. Why don't you just tell me if you're not convinced or if you are?

"... Russai"

"Hmm? What? You can't hear me. Look, louder! Like me now!

"Shut up, Master Edward! - Whoa, whoa, whoa."

You got a hangover!

Seeing Master Cyrus withstand vomiting in a horrible phase, I was frightened in my heart. And, of course, to Edward, who does things like children.

"... seems friendly"

"What jealousy, Julianna"

"No, not at all, not even this one.... I'll be there soon."

I forced Edward into the carriage.

And when I try to get in the carriage, too, I am stopped by Master Cyrus.

"Miss Julianna, please, Miss Edward."

"Yeah, I was asked"

"Hey, don't call me like your luggage"

When Edward said that in disgust, Master Cyrus' eyes lit up.

"You are the most problematic child, not the luggage...!

"If you're a problem child, so is Julianna"

"Yay, that's true...... it's better than asking Keel!

When Lord Cyrus says forcefully, Master Keel starts waving with a boom and a smile.

"Cyrus, you're going on a big ship, and you can leave it to me!

"You keep your mouth shut, you mudship!

"Hiya."

I loosen my cheeks and relieve myself of the conversation between Edwards as usual, a heartfelt one.

(... good. Looks like we made up)

Yesterday Edward and Lady Cyrus were in conflict, so I was a little worried that my childhood relationship would break down.

But apparently, in just one night, the relationship has been repaired, and Master Cyrus, whatever his shape, is no different than emotionally dropping us off.... I also say give up.

"Dear Edward, Miss Julianna, leave this to me."

"You can rest assured about Orcot territory. Fully ravage the Diaghilev Empire."

To Master Cyrus and Linus, me and Edward waved small.

"... I left it to you"

"I'm coming."

Unfortunately, the carriage left the royal palace.

The carriage went well and a week later we entered the Diaghilev Empire.

Having said that, I still don't get a sense of it right now because the precinct is a little further away. But now we have decided to make a final confirmation of the journey.

Spread the map of the Diaghilev Empire, and I pointed to the present location.

"Now it is still close to the Kingdom of Rolands, on the mountain path of the Diaghilev Empire. You'll see the town in a little while."

"I guess we're not going on a smooth journey"

"An unforeseen situation… for example, a carriage has been attacked"

I looked into Edward's eyes and nodded.

Monica, sitting next to her, roars with her index finger against her chin.

"Hmm. The odds of a carriage being attacked are definitely higher, right?

"Right. Whether you kill us or use us alive, you have to attack the carriage to begin."

Marie, sitting next to Edward, raised her hand modestly.

"So, young lady, do you decide to lay down the basic policy? It would be easier for both of us to move if we decided to prioritize."

"... right. Edward, what if the carriage gets attacked?

"Interception...... but it would be ideal but difficult. So the first priority is to get away. If it becomes a battle, it also escapes while responding. When you are cut off from your power, run away with those who are as close as you can"

"You just run away."

"Ultimately, at the place and time designated by the revolutionary government, if only someone would arrive. Getting there is more important now than ever."

That's what Edward said, he took a room of my hair sitting across the street, wrapped around a circle and his fingers and started playing.

"... Yes, Your Highness, the Second Prince"

Marie slapped Edward's hand off at an unstoppable speed in her eyes.

"Hey, Marie. Let's just say I'm Julianna's fiancée."

"I'm still your fiancée. Words such as men touching unmarried ladies. Eradicating insects that try to swarm a lady is also a role for a lady."

"Don't tell me."

"... both of you, what are you doing"

I turn to my bewildered eyes, but the sinister atmosphere of Edward and Marie remains the same.

You couldn't stand this air anymore, and Monica slapped her hand punched her as she moved her eyes in a chirp.

"Oh, erm... I mean, you're going for Teito 3rd Street! Wow, that's easy!

"Right."

"Right."

"Right."

"Eh, you're all cold. Oh, yeah! Why don't we take a little break around here? Mr. Keel will be tired."

Monica suggests brightly.

The carriage has been running all morning, and I was just hoping to get some rest. I try to raise my voice to ride Monica's suggestion.

But Marie took control of it by hand.

"... the break is going to be ahead. Ma'am, it's an enemy attack."
