The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen Who Will Become the Source of Tragedy Will Devote Herself for the Sake of the People
137. My brother-in-law is prepared.
"I see... So, stay with that rumor. So you also felt disturbed by Prince Leon in your eyes.
Mother sitting down on the throne nods in an elegant motion. His eyes slowly opened as he closed his eyelids and listened to me.
"Yes, Mother.... So I wanted to let you know. Why did you choose Prince Leon as your... fiancée to the First Princess of Pride? As an assistant to the First Princess of Pride, could you please tell me this?
Correct your posture and look up at your mother. On the left, the Regent's Uncle Vest stands with the paperwork in one hand. Your father and Jill Bale are not here on another official business. My mother gave instructions to Uncle Vest with only a small gaze. To go with it, Uncle Vest opens his mouth.
"Stayle. The rumors are well known to me, Her Majesty the Queen, His Royal Highness the King... and to everyone involved in selecting my fiancée.
Is it still true? I also heard rumors of Prince Leon originally from Jilbert. I had no idea that Uncle Vest, the regent in charge of the flow outside the country, could not have been unaware of the kind of information Jilbel had learned. But... Then why did Uncle Vast keep saying things before I opened my mouth?
"But it's all not out of the rumor range. To the First Prince of Leon, and also to the king of the kingdom of Anemone. That has been confirmed in advance. With permission, we also conducted an investigation within the kingdom of Anemone, and furthermore, I and Her Majesty the Queen met the First Prince of Leon in person, and we had several cross talks, and his character is meant to be quite understood.
At that point, at least, he said he was a fine person who deserved the next king's mate, with no problems. My mother snorted at my uncle Vest's words.... that there was no disturbance at all like I felt.
When asked what exactly was disturbing, I was stuck with words. My attitude towards pride, my eyes, and although I gave it back, I didn't realize it myself. Arthur was the only one who actually noticed his discomfort. No one can smile as sharply as he does. However... I was told that in this setting.
"Why did you give Prince Leon to Pride's fiancé? That was it, Stayle.
Now the mother opens her mouth herself. I've exchanged words like this several times before, but the queen still. It releases a majesty from all over his body that has not a single gap whenever he talks. I still atrophy from time to time just because that mouth opens.
"The country of Anemone is also an old relationship for our country, an ally. As you know, it is also a neighbour among neighbouring countries and especially close to our country.
Yeah, I know that, too. Every year, we also conduct joint Knights Recruits exercises, a familiar country for our country.
"And over the years, we have built alliances with several neighboring countries. The joint Alliance policy, which has been pursued since last year, is also a testament to that. That is why our country needed to confirm to each other its definitive and permanent connection with the kingdom of Anemone, which was more intimate than before, and its vow to prosper together.
In other words, because of the increase in allies with my country, we needed a solid proof that relations with the Anemone kingdom, which has long been intimate, would not be diluted. So that was this engagement between Pride and Prince Leon? Sure, I can snort that. Even with many alliances, contempt for a country that has always been close affair affects not only that country, but also its credibility with other allies.
If the marriage between the princesses and princes of both countries were concluded, it could be said that it would be a sign of friendship and trust without further ado.
"And there were other second and third princes in the kingdom of Anemone besides Prince Leon… only Prince Leon and I, Albert and Vest exchanged words directly and thought they deserved it. And also the king of the kingdom of Anemone wanted it.
I breathe in my mother's words. You think Prince Leon deserves it the most...? Why? There's a bad reputation for being a woman, and even more so, why a prince who was virtually stripped of her throne directly from the king.
You must have guessed from what I was saying and confused. My mother continued her words slowly.
"It has been repeated from me and Vest, and I have taken confirmation. I wondered if I could really make the First Prince a person in our country. But the king wants it. So I decided to welcome him into my country.
I don't know what extra means. Why does your mother value Prince Leon so much? He's the only one with a bad reputation. Surely you will have talent as a king. But still...
"... Style. You've done well as a first prince, as an aide to pride, as Tiara's brother-in-law.
Unexpectedly, the direction of the topic swung by me and I couldn't help myself on my shoulders.
"Especially since a year ago, he also wants to deepen his understanding of his duties as regent. That's what you wanted from me.
Answer your mother's words and nod. Sure, I've wanted that for a year. Originally, teachers were taught at an early age about the regent's job descriptions and how to be there, but I have never been directly involved in his official duties as regent before, as in Pride.
That's why I wanted my mother to study with this eye a year ago, beside Uncle Vest, even when I had time alone. But my mother only answered "if it were time" at that time, and that didn't happen.
"This is the time.
That's what my mother said to me, smiling gracefully. My mother's mouth pulled up softly the first time she caught me changing my expression visibly.
"Pride's engagement. More for the next queen. That kid will be more involved in official business. Judging only by that child, and also dealing directly with me, Albert, and Vest.... with Prince Leon.
On my mother's last words, my heart ached to be squeezed abruptly. Without realizing it, Mother continues.
"And you are the same. From now on, you'll be more attached to the vest. Pride goes hand in hand with Prince Leon and you act with Vest. Together we will each perform our official duties, and at dawn when Pride marries Prince Leon and you become Queen, you will be assistant to Pride… No, as Regent, you will support this country with Pride and Prince Leon.
I will allow it to be vested in a week's time, as you have always wanted it to be. And to my smiling mother, I... lost my word this time.
Follow Uncle Vest. That's a word I wouldn't even wish for. I wanted to study beside Uncle Vest to be Regent. For pride, and for this country. However, the words I received from my mother meant at the same time the disconnection of my life from my previous pride.
I can't be around you anymore.
Because I already have my place in Pride. My fiancée should be beside me.... No, Ning Lo. Should I say I've been Prince Leon's replacement before?
The next time you are beside pride, pride is true, when you become a couple with Prince Leon.
A week after Prince Leon came back to my country as his fiancée, I can no longer be as pride as I have ever been. As much as possible with the Regent, we must always behave with Uncle Vest.
... What do I need to be upset about? Isn't that what I wanted?
He kept his chest under control, before responding if he noticed.
Yes, I wanted to. He wants to learn from Uncle Vest. But suddenly it ends like this. Prince Leon will stand where I was until yesterday. I haven't run out of faith in that man yet.
"I, and all the regents of history, have done so. I hardly even got a word in my head from Uncle Vest, who talks.
I finally got my head around it, and the only word I squeezed out was "thank you," that one word. There won't be a day like today when I thanked you for having a harder look.
"You are an exceptionally brilliant child in history. I'm sure you'll be a great regent over even Vest. I'm counting on you in the future, my dear son.
Gently giggling back at her mother, she manages to fix it and giggle back. She asked me what else I wanted to ask and I answered and she gave me permission to leave the room. Exit the room as courtesy, and proceed with your feet with a sense of consciousness.
... I knew.
From the time I advised my mother that I wanted to study beside Uncle Vest, that way I would have little time with Pride.
Still thought it was good. If that's for future pride, it's for the people.
We don't cut it off, we'll live in the same castle, and we'll be able to eat together as before. It's normal to see each other during breaks.
However, there is always Prince Leon next to Pride.
Like three days to today, he'll always be beside his pride. He would whisper love even at meals, walk with his shoulders, shoulder to shoulder with each other and take time to rest. No more... you don't need me next to her.
"... ah.
I accidentally leaked my voice.
My tear glands are irritated and my tears are already coming that far. One more blink and it'll overflow all at once.
No, I promised Arthur. Still, I need to cry.
Eat your teeth off, scratch your own neck and desperately indulge.
It's okay, it's okay. It's all for pride, and for the people. I thought it was my decision to dedicate myself to this. It's okay, she's got Arthur and Tiara, even if I'm not around for pride. Even I, in the long run, can remain by my pride unchanged. It's okay, to be a fine regent, I...
"Ah! Dear brother, are you done talking to your mother?
When Tiara's bright voice raised her face, she came to the garden at some point. I don't remember using instant travel, and it seemed like he was really walking unconsciously.
Look at my face, Tiara's expression changes. Tiara, Pride, and Arthur are the only ones who still understand emotions completely from my expression. "What's wrong?" he said, touching the edge of his glasses as he worried about Tiara, who opened his eyes, returning that he was just a little tired. Keep getting back on your mind, look at Tiara again, I finally realize what's going on in front of me, and I'm surprised.
"Sister..., are you asleep...?
In the shade of the garden, Pride was asleep.
He sleeps holding Tiara, who sits in the shade of a tree, keeping Tiara's knee as a pillow to fall. I usually say Tiara just leans on pride. The position is completely reversed.
"I didn't get much sleep last night either.
To Tiara's words, who laughs innocently, I read the meaning deeply and my stomach hurts to burn again. Last night, were you still in Prince Leon's bedroom... Tiara twisted her neck and said, "Did you?" and give me a worried look even more. Telling her I was just tired again, Tiara slapped the lawn next to Pride with her hand still looking worried.
"My brother asleep for you too.
My face gets unwittingly hot at Tiara's words laughing like a prank. Why bother specifying next to Pride? What do you mean, go to sleep for the most part?
Because you're back in rage at my expression, Tiara gently strokes Pride's hair with a laugh of fun.
"... me, I've missed you so much for the last three days. I think Prince Leon took your sister. So I was so glad your sister invited me to the garden earlier.
Tiara smiles with a soft grin. Over and over again, stroke the bright red hair of soft pride. As Tiara's laugh caught me, I feel a little calm, too. I sat beside my sleeping pride as I was invited. Pride's face, just pillowing Tiara's knee, is pointing this way. The look of pride, which I know well, made my chest grip a little lighter.
"So, my sister invited me so far... she held me in her arms with all her heart. I'm sure you were comforted to realize I was lonely.... but then your sister."
"Are you...?
Tiara's words cut along the way. A pride I couldn't keep an eye on all the time opened my eyes thinly and blurred. Keep looking at my face, I'll call my name. Are you still falling asleep, your eyes are as vain as trolls and your point of view is not fixed. I was surprised to wake up all of a sudden. He looked at my expression and stretched his arm to me with that look of falling asleep.
"Eh…………! Wait... p... pride... xx"
I couldn't even hear my confused voice, my pride arms spinning slowly around my hips, making me unwittingly stiff. Make sure Pride hugs me like that and bury me in my lap. Much like Tiara did earlier.
Tiara looks to enjoy watching me and my sleeping pride rise to the tip of my head at once.
Why, even though it's because I'm sleeping in love, this is it. I've had many naps with the three of us before, but I've never seen pride fall asleep like this.
Her heart beats her body from the inside out with Bakubaku, shaking its luxurious body in an attempt to wake up intolerable pride, but she doesn't wake up at all. I'm going to break my heart because I'm going to groan and have more strength in my arms holding me tight.
Pride with a nervous, trembling voice, and call out your name. Then his own shoulder shook up unexpectedly at the pride of groaning and "soaking..." as he fell asleep again. And now my thoughts have stopped at the words of pride that were carried on.
"... Sabi just...
It was like, sweet... a crying voice.
Surprise surpasses all emotions and at the same time the movement of the body stops completely. Meanwhile, Pride buried his face in my lap and began to freshly sleep.
"He also told me... that's what he said.
Tiara smiled with joy as she glanced at her sleeping pride.
... lonely, he said.
I thought I was the only one who thought so.
I finally regained consciousness in Tiara's words, and I turn once again to the pride of sleeping on my lap.
Beautiful her face so close, sleeping with a reassuring look. Like Tiara, I try to stroke Pride's hair with this hand. Soft, long crimson hair slips through my fingers. At the same time, the sweet scent slipped through my nose tip. I'm not going to get tired of stroking you again and again. He stopped his hand before it became obnoxious, holding it with both hands as he feared, this time holding her head tight so that it was covered. A pulsating heart touches Pride's forehead and her long hair touches her mouth and nose.
So I quietly returned the words to her sleeping.
"... Me too.
... It's okay, I'm here all the time.
Even if I leave, my heart is beside you.
Even if I'm not next to you.
Even if you loved that man.
My body, my heart, it's all yours.
