The Queen’s Cosmetician

A boy holds one knee on a couch and looks out the window with his eyes wide open.

Looking back at the die that had entered the room, he instantly raised his hand with a smile and said hello in a frivolous tone.

No, I'm interrupting.

Die only smiles at him and sends a glimpse of Alvina beside him. "No problem," whispered Alvina.

There's no sign of painting, no sign of painting, no sign of painting.

"Thank you... Juno, it's been a long time."

"Hello. Have you changed your atmosphere since the Continental Conference?"

”Really? Juno... you haven't changed, have you?”

Die, who was led by a female officer and sat face to face with Juno, looked back at the boy.

Juno. When Die met at the Lesser Scandinavian Continental Conference, he claimed to be the caretaker of Ineca Riael, chairman of Clan Haive. For Ineka, "Has a National Chapter." At that place, he wore a sleeve through a dry earth-colored jacket that was stung with a sword entwined with the clan haves' national emblem and a double-headed snake wearing Baoyu.

"I protected the kids I saw at the Continental Conference."

A few months had passed since the clash between Perfilia and Clan Have when D'Adan, who was staying in Uchimachi, contacted him via Asma and Armatin, who had entered the aristocratic quarter.

As decided at the Continental Conference, although countries are moving as far as they can, the situation remains stagnant. At that time, one of them arrived from Dadan. Juno wants to talk to Mariage.

However, Mariage is a queen, and Rodimus and other high-ranking civilians are busy dealing with domestic and international issues. Even so, the civil servants below may not be able to get the guidelines. That said, even in the current situation, it is possible to adjust the time, and the die in which Mariage's name is served, counted one Sabbath day from the first report at afternoon, including identity confirmation, and responded to the interview.

I brought Alvina, so it didn't look like it was painted. However, there was a strange sense of discomfort when I subtracted that the outfit was different from that of Little Scandinavia.

Eyes in black, just like the swirling habit of black hair. A characteristic red pattern that spreads from the left cheek to the neck.

The childish appearance that tends to be deceived by them, which caught the eye strongly when they first met, stimulates the feeling of the die.

Juno blinked and raised his mouth to the die that narrowed his eyes to observe.

"Oh, I noticed." Awesome. We've only met once, haven't we? "

It could be a mistake.

"I see. Fine, let's answer it." It's faster to talk that way. "

"I see..."

Die exhaled a sigh and sent sightings around him, leaving one trusted official and one knight behind, with the exception of Alvina.

The unique servant of the missing Ineka is rolling into Del Ligeigeigeia in search of a view with Mariage. It's about the circumstances. Originally, there was only minimal staff, but it would be better to have even fewer personnel.

The knight at the door looked familiar and watched him until he locked the door. He waited until the [Silence] magic was activated, and Die asked a question.

"Doesn't your appearance grow?" Or are you holding it? "

"Either way." Wow. I really figured it out. ”

"...... I have something to remember myself for, too"

Ahh, nah. You seem to have a lot of intrinsic magic power.

Juno seemed to be relieved of Die's confession.

The die hasn't grown since it was ten years old. It's not because of malnutrition. "It's magic," Alvina said to Die before.

Juno mutters as he puts his hand on his chest.

"The high intrinsic power strives to maintain the magic vessel. He said he could stay a kid until he died if he locked the door with his magic if he wanted. In fact, I've been like this for almost 20 years... just before the fall of Meissenbühl."

In other words, the actual age is one turn higher than the die.

Juno continues to talk with a bitter old smile that doesn't suit the child's face.

"It's the Ineka who treats me like this." After all, this happened unwillingly, and it was the side effect of magic that linked Ineka to me. "

It's the magic of the lace.

Alvina stopped behind the die and spoke. The die looked up unexpectedly. Alvina watched Juno with her eyes closed, as Alvina predicted.

"I haven't seen you in a long time." I thought it was obsolete at a time like this. "

What kind of magic is that?

"It's a magic trick for the two of us to share our senses and knowledge." There are many ways to use it. Sometimes nurses use techniques and knowledge that are difficult to explain to their apprentices by mouth when they want to inherit them, and doctors connect their senses with the person who got sick, and check the degree and location of the pain. You can hand over and share your magic power, and you can make it look like a key and a safe by putting in a lot of constraints. "

"Keys and safe...?"

"Yes, mainly of knowledge. When you want to protect the treasure, the escape route of the castle, and such knowledge, one person is responsible for maintaining the knowledge, and one person is responsible for the explanation. I fixed it with magic. You can't publish without both of you. A man of knowledge cannot speak with his own mouth by magic. I can't even leave it in the documents. The interpreter has no knowledge in the first place."

When he heard the explanation, Die flashed.

How did Ineka explain Juno in a small Scanadian greeting?

She suggests a squire---......

My mouth

"I'm the only one who's right."

Juno looked up at Alvina in admiration.

"Are you the magician of the castle? Were you in Maisenbourg?"

Come on, let's see.

"...... may I return to the subject?"

Juno and Alvina's conversation broke the die.

"Um... is that correct, that you are the explainer of some kind of knowledge that President Ineka possesses?"

"Exactly."

Fast to understand and helpful, he broke his face and instantly changed his expression to a harsh one.

"I'm now being targeted." The one who's after me is Reina Luglova. You know Mayor Luglova. Clan Haive's female fox. And he was one of the war criminals who hit the clan in Perfilia. The Ineka... probably fell into the woman's hands to buy me time to escape. "

"Please," Juno begged.

"I'll do whatever I can provide." That's why you have to help Ineka. Protect us from the ghosts of Meissenble. "

“I have previously reported that the Church is praying for the resurrection of the Holy Maiden, but it was never a parable of the Church.”

While looking down at the urn lying on the couch, white as paper, Dietrich told Serenity. Serenity, sitting on a chair beside the couch, rests her chin on her folded hands and stares silently at her.

Protecting the Detrout from the impact of the bombing of the power stone at the meeting with Esmerald City, Tsubaki took advantage of the confusion and escaped the scene, and then used a lot of magic [paint]. You, Dietrich and Helmut, three men in total. Moreover, we did not deviate the impression of gender, but continued to use things that changed the outline, etc. Even though I could not relax until I returned to Serenity, where safety is guaranteed, the continuous exercise of complex magic is a great burden for the surgeon. When I got back, I was barely able to move from my bed.

We should have recovered sooner if we had. However, the accumulation of fatigue over the years carved many wounds into her body. Above all, the claw marks of the experiment that made her an acquired sorcerer have kept her here.

I never told Diana.

The original woman was the daughter of a nobleman from Perfilia.

In exchange for her qualification as a queen, she gained the magic power to exercise her advanced magic. This was before the collapse of Maisenbourg. It is not based on her will. It was due to the persistence of the bloodline of the Saintess of Perfilia and the thirst for the power of Maisenbourg.

On the way back from the border with Clan Have, there were many occasions when I had to rely on the Church of Our Lady to secure my sleep and food. At that time, I noticed the sincerity of the church side that Tsubaki chanted the resurrection of the Holy Maiden. She still bore the curse of Meissenble.

"We have to find them fast."

And if it comes true, we have to kill it.

To protect Perfilia.

Dietrich muttered as he stared at the void.

I wonder if it will revive the saintly lady.

Juno had two requests.

First of all, the protection of the body from other countries and all institutions, with the Church of Our Lady at the head.

The other is to rescue Ineca Ria-El from Clan Haive.

“I think moving to rescue Ineka is probably not a problem.... but what do you mean you want me to protect you not only from the Church of Our Lady, but also from other countries?"

Die asked Juno.

Although I received a report of Juno from Uchimachi, I haven't been able to confirm the person so far, so I haven't communicated his discovery anywhere yet. But as for Del Ligeigeigeige, ultimately, Juno was at least reporting to the queens attending the Continental Conference, and they wanted to shelter together. Juno is one of the most important references to Clan Have's inner circumstances. If Del Ligueiria secrets his existence, it could crack the links between the nations as if it had leaked something.

Juno answers with a clenched fist on her lap.

"I know you're anxious. But it would be worse if you revealed me."

What's wrong with you?

"You're moving with your feet aligned to deal with Perfilia and the clan, right?" It divides. Well, you can take me or you can kill me. First of all, the country's claim breaks down. Also, the cadre connected to Reina was the worst. Not necessarily the one who sells me to Reina....... So, if you really want to treat me with other countries, please listen to what I'm going to tell you, and then consult with the queens to make a decision. "

The die puts his hand on his mouth and thinks silently. Whether or not to allow the presence of Mariage. I guess I should at least call Rodimus in light of the situation. However, due to their time and the urgency of the situation, only the die has decided to listen. The political response will be assisted by a civil servant.

“Please keep explaining.... I mean, that much information you have has shaken the intentions of various countries. Can you tell me what it looks like?”

"Ah, it's okay.... I told you to tell her."

Do you think about it when you break up? Or are the senses connected?

Juno replies, narrowing his eyes like he was staring into the distance.

"Ineka is an engineer."

And he confessed.

"Ineka was involved in a plan that had been sneakily pursued in Maisenbourg before the collapse.... do you know [Doom Witch]?"

"The beauty of the passionate country that destroyed Maisenbl. No one knows.... I heard it was real, too."

"To whom?"

"For the sorcerer from Maisenbourg."

Abyssal Green Doppelgänger Magician. Eugrid Sais is a magician from Maizenburg. In Lesser Scandinavia, he said. The Witch of Doom was real.

"I see.... then you know this too." Maisenbourg was studying the [Doom Witch] by capturing it. She was not a woman called "Witch" by metaphor. Since the beginning of history, it was a true [cursed] witch who was supposed to be born at the time of the transformation of history. "

"... curse?"

"It's one thing to distinguish a sorcerer from a witch, Die."

Alvina sandwiched her mouth. Looking up, she smiled somewhat sad.

"Die, you know Trieste." Demonless Trieste

It's a witch who is said to have been the masterpiece of the castle's defensive tricks.

Yeah.

Close range eavesdropping is hindered by the sorcery applied to every room. At the same time, the castle incorporated magic into the foundations of the building to prevent eavesdropping and tracking from outside. That's how Trieste works. When the die was once captured by the Detrouts during a visit to Perfilia, this technique seemed to have prevented them from exploring their location.

Trieste existed in the middle of Scarlet, the predecessor of Maisenbourg. It was a witch who had gathered dense magic power and had a curse that nullified all the magic around her.

"With its magic power, it's called a curse, a wide range of magic that can be activated indiscriminately regardless of one's own will." To have it is the witch's proof. "

"In addition, it has silver eyes that will move to seven colors."... amazing, beautiful, scary eyes. Those are the eyes that the demon loves.... I could tell with one shot that I was hoarding a vast amount of magic power in my body....... you're still that old as me. "

Seis also said that.

She said she was still a child.

Maisenbourg was planning to use the witch's magic power.

"... are you planning to make a sorcerer?"

Juno asked Die as he continued to explain.

I've heard from Ceith before. Mazenburu, who wanted a powerful sorcerer, secretly proceeded to plant the magic power of the witch in a well-behaved child. Ceith described himself as a biological weapon born as a result.

"A sorcerer? Oh, no. That's not what they were trying to make-- a saintly woman."

Behind the die, Alvina breathed a small breath.

Juno lifted the corner of his mouth.

To laugh at the work of the exile.

"The Saintess Cynthia said she was a witch." That's why I decided to make Mazenburgh after I got the same witch. A new [Holy Maiden] for Maisenbourg to regain the power of a country that has started to fall and can be manipulated as it pleases. "

The place calms down as if it had struck water.

Juno spoke lightly to break the silence.

"He called himself the surrogate of the faceless saint, but it was actually a country that would do anything for power." She was sheltering mad scholars who were corrupt in their bloody research. In the basement, there was a tiny research facility that looked like it was flipping upside down, and I and Ineka were there. "

"...... Juno-san......"

Were you a researcher? Was it the subject?

Even though the answer was clear, Juno smiled at the die that had been put out.

"I'm an experimental animal." It was like a rat for examination.... the condition of the Saintess is to expose herself to such vast magical power as to bring a curse to the surroundings. And the height of the magic power appeared in my eyes. A saintly woman has to be a woman, and the lineage of a saintly woman is preferable. However, the daughter of the Saintess's bloodline is rare, so you can't crush her by using it. That's why Maisenburgh repeated the experiment of planting the magic power of others on children by collecting hundreds and hundreds of children with high intrinsic magic power for the production. If you succeed in settling down, you will become a sorcerer. That's all I can make out of it. Even the number of magicians was decreasing year by year. "

In other words, the process by which Seith was created as a powerful sorcerer was merely a by-product of the research that produced the Saintess.

"Ineka hits the fairly bloodthirsty side of Maisenbourg's public house. She was a leading sorcerer of the saintly faithful, and she was a magician who had the status, power, and strength to summarize research. I was entrusted by King Ashburn, then Princess Maisenbourg, and I also took care of the witch.... just a little while before Maisenbourg perished. Ineka finally finished it.... a new witch, a great sorcery that produces a holy maiden."

But Ineka ran away.

Seal all the results of that research to your head and take Juno with you.

Reina Luglova is aiming for a set of ritual procedures, preparations, and techniques for the Great Sorcery in Ineka's head.

"But Reina can't retrieve that information."... if you don't talk to Juno, the information won't be disclosed. "

Juno nods to the die.

"What if the resurrection of the Holy Maiden is really going to take place?" What if the saintly woman could control it herself?... that's what every country wants. That's why I can't belong to any country. But I can't die. To help Ineka. "
