The Queen’s Cosmetician

Chapter 4: The Invading Saints 1

Duke of Magic Mazenbl.

Including the period of the old duchy (Scarlett), which moved forward, its history dates back to the Shinto era. It was the second oldest country in the world.

The country glorified for too long. In the name of Our Lady, the conquest took place. Therefore, people - at least those who were in a position where they could rule - did not suspect that their existence would continue in the future.

But it's gone.

It was all of a sudden. The previous princess departed to the land of Mabolo, and Armardi, the heir, abandoned the princess's inheritance. Her brother Ashburn took his place.

Soon thereafter, the Red City and the city that the people praised, the country was swallowed up by the main stream of demons, and it was really crushed abruptly.

The dazzling curtain shook the nations of the continent. Perfilia was no exception.

At the time, Dietrich was still a Heath, and he had seven of his own. As an apprentice of the servant, I began to work at Yerni's hall all the time, and I witnessed my complicated birth and subtle position, and it was a multi-sensory period where the mistrust of my parents due to the birth of my sister was mixed. I am loved and made to live. There are not many things that children remember when they had to live desperately telling themselves about it. But the Mazenburgh collapse was one of the clearest.

The collapse of the Patriarchate. The news knocked out the adults. To ascertain the truth, the lord immediately departed with Heath's father to the capital, leaving the remaining servants to their right. The unaffected adults took Maisenbourg's conclusion with a different fear from the political and economic reasons.

The curse was the truth, the awe.

A boy shall not reach the throne. When you give a boy to the king, he is cursed. When did it begin? It was a custom, an implicit understanding. It permeated the church as a reminder. Perhaps it was to ensure that the bloodline of the Saintess was passed on to future generations. For the seed is not known to whom, but the conception of a child is evident unto whom.

Destroying the bloodline of the Holy Maiden. It meant a loss of power. Therefore all nations kept the commandment that no man should be seated on the throne according to law.

It was easier to spread the word of the cursed to the faithful. Perhaps that was the first time.

However, after incorporating the blood of the saintly lady, for the first time, the Demon Duchy was destroyed in just one day.

And those who fled, they said:

Magic exploded concentrically from the princess's castle, drawing silver ripples. In the face of that demon, only a few were left to survive. Low Magic Resistance - In other words, those with low intrinsic magic power could not withstand the pressure of external magic power and went insane, scattered, or became alien beasts. Those who kept a man's flesh were also murdered by his deformed neighbor.

It's not just people. Animals were likewise devoured from the inside, and sometimes turned into strange monsters.

The atmosphere was rough. Purple lightning ran through the sky, and the whirlwind that appeared here knocked down the building. At the end, the magic power inflated by the cage of Zidian crushed the whole city while replacing much of it with meat chunks.

And it was as if the gods reached out from heaven, and gripped the ripe fruits.

In the center of the city, the former territory of Maisenbourg became a dangerous place filled with the magical power of high pressure, with deformed beasts.

At that time, the curse was completed.

After all, when a man reaches the throne, he is cursed.

His son was instigated by the [Witch of Doom], and he took his place as his sister and became king. It was a curse. That's why even the land of the saintly lady, where all sorcery has been cultivated, has perished.

Yes, it was inscribed in the hearts of many people.

(If a man is truly cursed when he reaches the throne, why has His Majesty been on the throne for so long?)

It was a question of all those who continued to support Serenity.

When Yerni's eldest son became a Serenity, the period was assumed to be less than a year. To take my sister's place, not to take the throne. So, please, with all due respect, Ditrault's master has become a queen. I was relieved when I survived a month, and when I was sure to become a queen for more than a year, I suspected a curse, and now I am convinced that there is no curse.

However, it is only because of the Ditrouts who become long after setting the boy on the throne, it is not easy to overturn the consciousness of those who once believed that there was. Even more so because they feared that it would be the work of their Lord.

― ― As a result, Dietrich thinks that Perfilia's current tragedy is a tragedy, and Dietricht walks through the city of the King.

"--what does the queen say!"

That's why the battle broke out!

"Hey, where do I run to!"

"Wait! That wheat is mine!"

"Granny, granny, granny, granny! Noooo, please answer me...!"

The Church of Our Lady of Perfilia revealed to the main nations of the continent that the queen of Perfilia was a boy. There were signs of movement in every country to conceal the facts, to suppress the agitation of the people, but the Church of Our Lady was better. Using its network of contacts, he promptly announced the sins of Perfilia to the chapels on the continent. The inhabitants packed in the church guardian facility (Asairam) were furious that their misfortune was due to the king's sin, and chaos spread from them into the country.

In the south, which is bordered by Clan Have, security is now worse than in the capital, and riots are occurring here.

A rain door descends from a window called a window. Occasionally, the broken wooden door was wobbling with the hinges off. In the narrow alley there is a stupid mass of dirty cloth. The runaway child is crying in tears.

Dietricht walked alone through the streets of the city. No one approached him when he wore poor clothes, and wore a shabby coat from his head, and walked face to face. Cross the square in front of the cathedral and go down the street. Along the way you enter the path and turn left. Spanning barrels, lean dogs and cats, children, and clumps of rotten smells. A group of smoky feathers roared low and flew away.

Ditrout slammed the old wooden doors that were almost assimilated to the walls as he dived through the washing lines passed between the buildings, intertwining like a cobweb.

It's Rowen.

Ditrout borrowed the name of his deceased acquaintance.

"I'm here to pick up a package from my brother."

"Brother...?"

Asked through the door.

"Who are you talking about?"

"Kite"

The door opens according to the correct answer.

The hinge sound is badly disturbing. Dietrich twisted his body into the slightly open space.

It was a small, dark room. A man stands alone. An elderly man with his shaved head wrapped in a bright green cloth. There is a splendid cut across half of the face. Until now, he had covered half of his face with cloth, so Detraut looked directly at the wound for the first time.

I'm sorry you're embarrassing me.

said the man. Ditrout smiled and shook his head.

"No. Will it get damaged?"

"It's an old wound." Well, it hurts when the weather is bad. Please come this way. Watch your step. "

A man turns over and pushes up the cloth on the other side of the room. Dietrich silently followed the man as he walked through the dimly lit corridor and climbed the steep sloping staircase.

The man is called Bevel Ottoman. He was the head of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in the northern part of the western continent. I first got acquainted with the bay harbor development and had various contacts when returning Diana to Del Ligeiria. Since then, various conveniences have continued to be sought.

"- As promised, I have secured fifty."

The third floor of an inn run by a bevel. In a small room where only a limited number of people would be invited, with strict protection by magic and anti-tapping measures, he offered a document to Detraut. The name of the large intercontinental ship, the date of the most recent departure of the non-supply ship, and the method of boarding the ship are described. It was information that everyone wanted so much that they could get their hands out of their throats in this unstable situation.

Currently, the price of passenger tickets for unsupplied ships is jumping. Even if you're lucky enough to get a ticket, the mob will attack you and take your life. Due to the arrival of people seeking boarding, the ship cannot be moored at the port and is waiting at a point where the current is heavy so that boats and people can never approach it.

Priority boarding seats are those on which the bevel has provided convenience to the detrout.

When Ditraut learned how to board the ship at the time of departure, he returned the paper and submitted the documents that he had brought with him.

Here's a list of the passengers on board.

"I'll keep it for you." --...... I don't know His Majesty's name... would you mind? "

"Yes. The seat I have asked for is not for you to escape." We just wanted to fly the seeds. "

Seed

"-The Church of Our Lady of Our Lady bombarded herself with a man, and it cannot be said that other nations are on her side." Even though the soldiers at the border did not disintegrate at once, their morale has fallen greatly from their bewilderment. Soon, we will be able to defeat Clan Haive.... and the people. "

Listening to the shrieks and screams echoing from outside the window, Detraut shrugged.

"-You can't say that you're being reasonable. A fine clerk, technician, and guard needed to rebuild the country, a queen may be born, a noble survivor, a girl. I want to leave such a minimum behind regardless of nobility."

Serenity is still judging politics in the depths of her castle. I'm scratching this country to keep it from shattering.

But I want to insure it.

The future is always uncertain. That's why it's important to disperse everything, Dita. "

That's what my mentor, Klaus Livot, always said.

“If they go to another country, they may not come back.”

"It doesn't matter. If you die, there's nothing left." If we survive, we may be able to contribute in some way. That's all I'm saying. ”

Bevel silences Detraut's response.

Ditrout continued.

“We've screened people who have no personality issues. If you have any concerns, please do so now. We haven't notified anyone yet. I hope this is impossible. It can be reduced or replaced.”

"No, I don't have a problem.... and the Ottomans accepted."

Bevel thinly rounds the roster and puts it into a metal cylinder he puts into his pocket to rule. The cylinder was unfamiliar. Because it was engraved with magic characters, it must be some kind of magic tool.

"... you're going home alone?" Who will escort you? ”

"Thank you for your generosity, but I appreciate it." Being the Prime Minister, the chance to be alone is invaluable. It's a loss if you don't enjoy it. "

Bevel smiles lightly in Detraut's mouth.

"Give me the exit."

“No, actually, it's less noticeable when you're alone....... the ones who can't wait to attack us are just waiting in front of the gate for the dressed queen and the prime minister to show up with an escort."

"... who has rebuilt a country that has lost so much in civil strife?"... you're forgetting something, aren't you? "

The Church of Our Lady insisted. Serenity is a boy.

The angry people who had been deceived were pushing against the royal castle.

Fortunately, most of the royal castle officials who were terrified of their swordscreen fled, and no one was pressing Serenity to uncover the truth, and they were concentrating on government.

In addition, it can be said that the personnel who remain among them are quietly working to solve the peace of the country and the various aspects of the war without asking anything.

No, the Detraut guards were complaining when they knocked the evacuees near the border out of the castle to lead them to the east of the country.

Look, Dita, I'll be back... I'll explain everything to you!

"-My Lordship"

Bevel stops Dietrich, who was trying to leave after running errands.

He told Dietrich at once.

The package was delivered to Lord Aliga.

Ditrout stopped.

I didn't know it, and my smile disappeared.

I see.

"There is a transmission from one of the branches of the border. Rokuhana, the city, first meeting»

Even in countries that have normal international relations, the "Message" type of power stone, although it has a character limit, allows for a short exchange over long distances.

(... is that what you mean?)

The code from the consignee is understandable. It seems that we are not surrounded by enemies on all sides.

I felt like I was gently gripping my frozen palm.

However, there were some confusing points. That's where it came from.

"Borders?"

"Daddy's coming."

I don't think Bebel knows what he's coming for.

To silence him by stating his requirements, Ditrout asked.

"... do you-- do you meet him?"

“Probably. I'm not leaving here.”

"Then leave a message."

Leave some to Bebel, and Dietrich will go outside.

The cry, the scream, that comes from a distance again. The smell that I smelled throws up in my nose. The chest is blocked by it.

I haven't burned it yet. Not yet, everything.

Detraut turned the hem of his coat and walked out.

Return to the battlefield of your choice.

Die!

The man who called his name with a bright face and filled the distance was a person who knew Die well.

Fabian! It's been a long time!

"Yeah, it's a mess." I'm glad you're doing well. It's good to see you. This is the situation, though.

Me too.

Die smiled back at Fabian and responded to the offered handshake, taking care not to notice the tremor.

Fabien Barnier became the head foreign affairs officer of Doppelgänger in the [Emerald of the Abyss]. Like the die, he is an envoy who celebrates the reincarnation of the saintly lady.

Less than two months after the Continental Congress decided to send an envoy to the city of Luglova. Die met him safely in the town in front of the city of Luglova with a group he led. A large inn hall where guests stay before heading to Katsura City. Say hello to Fabian's closest friends against the backdrop of a frenzy of room divisions and unloading.

Claire, it's been a while.

"It's the first time I've met you on the continent, Mr. Die."

Claire politely bowed back.

With her chestnut-haired face, she is the first officer and guard of Fabian. Normally, she had a pale expression on her face.

"I'm glad you're doing well."

Claire, when will Fabian and the others be here?

"We're the night of the night." You're on a bone break before you're taken hostage. "

Farby-sama.

But it must have reacted to the words of the hostage. Claire glares at Fabian sharply. Fabian groaned and objected like a scolded child.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. That

He said, "I don't know who's listening."

Claire should be younger. As usual, Dai laughed at the interchange between her sister and her brother.

Both of them are right.

All you have to do is celebrate the new birth of the Holy Maiden. Die explained that to Assy, but they were like hostages offered to show that the countries of the Continental Conference were not rebellious.

If it is too long, the national chapter holders of other countries will go to greet you next time, and change their positions with the die. But before we do that, the Church of Our Lady is willing to be weakened.

Before going to Luglova City, it is important to reconsider the status quo in which we are placed. However, as Claire said, this was already a territory administered by the city of Luglova, and it would have been better to pay more attention to words and deeds.

"I was a little worried. I was wondering if the dies would fit properly."

Fabian said in a reassuring voice.

"I heard it was very rough around the border."

"Not on the eastern border, but bypassed from the south."

To the south of Del Ligeigeigeia lies a wasteland called the buffer zone, which does not belong to any country. Usually, it passes eastward into other countries, but this time, it took the path through the buffer zone. The reason is, of course, not to get involved in the battle between Perfilia and Clan Have.

"Fortunately, thanks to the weather, I managed to escape safely..."

“Great. If we don't get back in a couple of days, I was telling you we should get into Luglois first.”

I'm sorry to hear that.

Farby-sama.

Claire called out to Fabian in a dumb voice.

"I don't want to force Die-sama to stand for a long time, but let's take a break."

"Ah, that's right... I'm sorry"

You didn't notice.

Fabian shakes his head to the side as Die smiles bitterly.

"Well then, I'll meet you later." Please let me know your schedule when you get settled. I wish I could speak to someone close to me..... "

Fabian pulls back lightly and begins to introduce the people he has gathered with his gaze.

"Claire, if it matters to her, Thomson, and Grimoire."

A chivalrous, grand man and a young man with a narrow line meet and greet. There are still other people accompanying her, but they are not taking their seats at the moment. Later, said Fabian.

I will continue to introduce people who are as close to Die as he is.

"Yuvale and Brenda."

The two knights accompanying the escort bowed. Brenda was a female knight. By the way, Randy is away to help unload.

“This is Alletta. If you need anything, please speak to her.”

Show the secretary's clerk, and finally the woman who snuggles up to the die.

"And she's yoyoi."

Die and the girl of the same age with the face of the Tohoku people bowed their heads in bow.

"I will be my maid."

And she lifted up her face, and the silver scarlet, which was inserted in her folded black hair, thumped.
