Well, how about an exchange meeting?
I was the first to say it.
Would it be better to say that I presented a proposal to Tiara's proposal, to be precise?
In my kingdom of Freesia... there is Christmas as a common concept in this world. There were also events called Christmas in Kimihika, depending on the series, so it was probably because of that.
However, it is not the birthday of someone similar to my previous life, or the birthday of a real heartfelt grandfather who gifted gifts to underprivileged children.
Generally, it is a "day spent with family, lovers, and other important people".
It is also a very popular day for children, based on the transcendent and famous anecdote that "Santa Claus, the old man who brought the red clothes that made the flying reindeer draw sleds when he was a good kid, will deliver gifts to children".
As a rule of thumb, it seems that the "anecdote of Santa Claus" that has been passed down and become famous in all countries on the continent was ridden on the "Family Lovers Event" day of the former. That's why Santa's disguised event business is not such a thing in Japan. Is it easy to arrange Santa's and reindeer-based products in markets and stores?
My kingdom of Freesia is not deep in faith, nor is it ordered to celebrate with Santa Claus.
Basically, by recommending the original "let's spend time with lovers and family", adults are fulfilling their children's dreams and giving them gifts like Santa... well, because it is a Japanese maiden game, it is the same Christmas way as my previous life in Japan.
I don't have a big Christmas party in the castle, and I have a family dinner party every year. The party at the beginning of the year is more grand and invites visitors, and it feels much more like an event. We live in Ningluo Castle, and we have the impression that the decoration is just plain.
I was happy to receive a gift when I was a child, but now I have grown up at this age, so I don't have it now. I'm so excited about what kind of Christmas cake we have this year.... even though it was...
I see, in Freesia?
Cedric emigrated to our country.
He taught me that Christmas was coming up and the whole castle had more Christmas decorations.
It seems that I studied about Japanese culture in a library book, but apart from that, he asked me in a chat, including how I spent my time recently. According to the story, even though they are from the same continent, in Hanazoo and Freesia, the way they spend Christmas is slightly different.
It seems that the Circassian Kingdom and the Chinensis Kingdom, which were originally different countries, also had different ways of spending their holidays, and Cedric was supposed to spend his third kind of Christmas in Japan.
In the Faithful Kingdom of Chinaensis, Christmas, a holy night around the world, is a harsh day for the whole nation to come together and renew their faith through large-scale worship by praying in the most religious night of the year. Therefore, it seems that the coronation ceremony was held by successive kings of the Chinensis Kingdom, including King Joan. Santa's anecdotes are familiar, but the main characters are either gods or kings of the new kingdom.
And the Circassian kingdom has Santa's legend as well as ours, but it lists a country that is incomparable to Freesia, and "Santa Claus' legend" before giving presents to children, families, and lovers. It seems that the whole country is in a state of festival because the royal nobleman who has money actively distributes favors to the people.
Temperature difference with the Kingdom of Chainensis. Well, I guess... there was also a part of it that was originally unfriendly to the Chinensis Kingdom, and I was perverted. Although it is now a friendly United Kingdom of Hanazoo, I think it was a country that really didn't get along with each other. When the neighbor is praying for a clean heart, the fuss all over the country is really very harassing.
Since becoming the United Kingdom of Hanazoo, we have been compromising with each other for Christmas, and even though the style of the Chinensis Kingdom has not broken down in the United Kingdom of Hanazoo, it seems that it is a positive day for both countries to give gifts to close opponents including family and lovers.
Nowadays, even if it is Christmas in the Sarsis, some people go to the Chinensis Kingdom to attend the worship except for returning home, and even in the Chinensis Kingdom, the custom of giving gifts to important people after worship is widespread.
Especially since King Lance was on the throne, he forbade any disturbance to the Chinensis Kingdom at Christmas, so it seems that the Chinensis Kingdom can spend a quiet Christmas without the influence of the circus. The real King Lance is great.
Cedric told me that this afternoon. And when I told Tiara and Steil that story at dinner, Tiara's eyes shined. He suggested that it would be nice to be able to give gifts not only to children, but also to family members and close friends. It's not in the form of an official statement, but a sense of how much we can personally play with it.
Not just the three of us, but Arthur and all the Kingsguard. Moreover, Val and the others were tiara who wanted to make us all give gifts after getting along with Chancellor Gilbert and Leon, but Captain Alan Column, who was still in Sail and Guard, waited for us.
Wait, Tiara. You can always give it away, but think about the burden on the side that gave it away. Leave Chemtu and Cefek as your servants as long as Gilbert and Prince Leon. ”
I wonder if the elite column can still prepare gifts that we can give back to our royalty...
I'm very happy for you, but I'm afraid Arthur, Eric, and Harrison won't like it either.
It was true.
Although it is totally fun to give from us who are royalty, the gifts from royalty are quite generous. If you are celebrating a person's birthday or promotion celebration, even if we give it to you, it will not be a burden on the recipient. Because it is not a prerequisite for repayment.
But if you say it's a Christmas present, it's an event. When I give it to someone, I don't want to be polite to give it back to them. It would be superfluous if it came from the person above.
One for the three of us, let alone one for each of us, they will surely be in trouble. We don't have any Christmas presents for ourselves, but if we don't get the right gift in return, there's a chance we'll be very grateful and embarrassed.
Tiara said, "I don't want anything in return!" But considering the position of the knights, Arthur was difficult. Moreover, it was a considerable expense to pay back the three royalty at once.
If I wasn't worried about repaying you, I'd like to give everyone a gift every year and feel like Santa Claus. But Cedric told me that he only gave Christmas gifts to King Lance and King Joan in the end, and it would be embarrassing if he did it to someone other than the royal family.
In that case, at least when we talked about keeping it as a gift to the royals and Chancellor Gilbert.... I've inadvertently suggested it in my memories of my previous life, and it's still happening.
"It's hard to prepare for everyone or give back, right?" So there is only one gift to prepare. I'll mix it all up so we don't understand it, and then we can exchange it. "
In other words, it was a gift exchange meeting that was common in previous life.
Then I don't know who I'm going to hit, so I don't care about my royal opponents or my identity, and I can only prepare Christmas-like gifts for each one. Besides, the burden is on one person, and if everyone can give gifts, they can give back.... although it might be a little different from what Tiara imagined, wanting to give a gift to everyone she loves. But at least it should serve the purpose of making gifts with friends.
One at a time. The price will be capped so that the maids don't know who they are.
If I explained the gift exchange rules in detail, Tiara would glitter her face and agree with me.
It looks so fun and so lovely. It's Ryuishi-san!
I felt a little tickled by Tiara, who praised me as I put my fingers together and stepped out of the chair.
"What do you say?" he asked Steyl and Captain Alan, and they agreed.... However, it is prohibited to reveal or ask questions about who prepared each gift.
Well, if not, I can't help it because I'm afraid of the Santa hunting game when my royal opponent gave me a gift. Tiara said, "It looks like you're having fun making inferences!" Since you received it positively, it was decided in that direction.
"Then we'll have to prepare for Christmas day, so let's decide who will be joining us in the meantime." It is also convenient, and it is difficult for everyone at the same time, so it is easy to participate if you prepare each by the day before and collect each on the day. Pride and Tiara, me and Arthur, Prince Leon.... "
"I wonder if I can invite Cedric too." This time, too, it was because he taught me about Christmas in Hanazoo. Besides, you have become a people of Japan. "
"! Woah, I'll be the other Val!" Can you please ask me to deliver it next time from onee-sama? Chancellor Gilbert, I'll invite you! "
"The Kingsguard will tell you this later from me and Alan. To Arthur and Eric,...."
"...... Harrison. Christmas is the most unimaginable thing for him......"
In order not to cause any problems in the unlikely event, we will raise the people who want us to participate in Stale's proposal that only the interior will be used this time.
I suggested it to Marie, Lotte, and Jacques, my maidservants, but then Marie said, "We are enough to help you exchange gifts." Tiara and Stale's dedicated maids are also the same, so it seems that the exchange of presents is a little expensive for people who are in the position of servants.... it looks like Vice Captain Harrison is more expensive than that. And Val.
It is certainly difficult to match the word Christmas to those two.
Val hates deliveries to countries where Christmas events are thriving every time this time of year, even though Kemeto and Sephek are so fussy.... would you be willing to participate in a gift party?
Lieutenant Harrison's name came to Column's attention, and it was a bitter smile on Captain Alan's face. In the end, Arthur said, "Well, I think you can handle it if you invite me from Pride."
"I'm looking forward to it!" Tiara's voice jumped like a bell, and now Stale's mouth was laughing with a little excitement.
Lotte and Marie, who don't exchange presents themselves, nod silently to the event itself with a smile.
And coming Christmas day.
The Christmas gift exchange party, which I know is going to be a breeze in a different way than the gift exchange meeting, has started.
