The Queen’s Cosmetician

Chapter 7: The Perfidious 4

Across the passageway from the throne room, there was originally a waiting room for royalty. The paintings on the walls and ceilings are magnificent and beautiful, but the size of the room is only noticeable and cold when all the furniture is removed and the blackout curtains are drawn. A corner of the wall was opening its mouth to trace the color of the painting and peeking into the staircase leading to the darkness.

The intruders that emerge from it look really stupid.

"I've been waiting for you." You've been here a long time. "

Dietrich raised his hand as he said softly.

The soldiers who were holding onto the signal dragged Reginald out in the middle of the tunnel to arrest him. Some of the people behind him began to pale and rush down the stairs. It's stupid. The staircase that appeared with the magic trick was not wide enough for one person. Yeah, but hurrying won't stop you from falling. Nevertheless, even if I went downstairs somehow, the soldiers of another unit were waiting for me to form a net.

"W-why... why!"

Dragged out before Reginald, he screams before his already dead compatriots. His eyes did not look at the Ditrouts. It may be that you are asking the Holy Maiden about the current situation from the perspective of looking up to the heavens.

But the saintly lady said nothing.

So Dietrich replied instead.

"Why, why...? Are you really not sure? Why did we stay in this royal castle even after the mob that you instigated us to attack?"

"... what about you?"

"Do you think we didn't know the path you just passed?" I told you, didn't I? We've been waiting for you. And ye shall come into the cage, caught in the bait of us.

Of course, Dietrich is aware of the way out without opening the gates of the Imperial Castle. There were not many roads from the royal castle to the outside of the royal capital, and they could escape at any time. You can have a minimum government without having to be a king.

Still, we didn't move from here. I even used the officials who escaped outside to make a scene.

There are only a few queens and prime ministers left in the royal castle, and only a few who cannot move.

In other words, it was easy to conquer the Imperial Castle as long as it was inside.

It's not really like that.

I could always invite regular soldiers to the Imperial Castle. Reginalds seem to have struggled a lot to follow the ancient road, but with the Queen's Seal, running backwards is not difficult.

"... you guys are going to get in the way when Perfilia gets back on her feet." I brought disaster to this land because of my own greed. A fanatic who instigates sin on innocent people, makes them carry weapons, and bleeds. I want you to leave this world. "

You are the ones who called the disaster!

Reginald screamed at Detraut as the soldiers tied his wrists behind his back and pounded his knees.

"Black sheep who despise the Holy Maiden!" The Holy Maiden has stopped blessing this land because there are people like you! We're all born! ”

Reginald Chamberlain has no magic spirit.

I couldn't use my magic to measure time or direction at all. It was a fatal flaw among the nobles who honored the blood of the Holy Maiden. At least that was the case in the Chamberlain family.

Chamberlain is counted among Perfilia's most famous families. He was an eldest son, possessed of wealth and identity. You can go into exile, you can eat inside the Church of Our Lady, you can gather your compatriots and you can organize. There must have been some genius.

He had the only magic skill he had.

The figure of a sorcerer began to disappear on other continents, and it was hundreds of years ago. However, this land, known as the "Beast of the West", was under the protection of Mazenburu, a magic kingdom that lasted forever. Therefore, many people with magic culture existed. In fact, if we look at the statistics, we can see that children with magic literacy were no longer born in this west. After the collapse of the Mazenburgh, the sorcerer stood out and disappeared for the reason that he was involved in the collapse of the Mazenburgh. The country was an educational institution for sorcerers. There were also many researchers. Because children with magic skills were gathered in Maisenbourg from an early age.

But such facts are of no value to Reginald.

It was blessed by the Saintess that this [Western Beast] possessed many magicians that were already rare in other continents. If the faith in the Holy Maiden becomes fierce, this [Beast of the West] will be full of blessings.

That was Reginald's truth.

A thick hand wrapped in a small hand on Detraut's shoulder rests from behind.

"Can we do this now, Dita?"

It was Helmut.

In keeping with Reginald's move, he led the elite into the royal castle.

"There's just one more job left for this guy."

"... that's right."

I noticed that the room was full of blood.

Because Reginald killed everything he brought with him.

There was only one reason to keep Reginald, the mastermind, alive. We need to torture them.

Connection to the Church of Our Lady, which we have not been able to grasp. How did you collude with Reina Luglova? The location of nesting rats in the castle, etc. I have a question for you about the mountains.

But I couldn't make it any longer.

The current situation of mobs coming in from the side of the castle gate is unchanged.

We have to get this over with.

Before it all comes to an end.

Helmut instructs his soldiers to take Reginald. The old general stopped Dietricht, who tried to follow him.

"Stay with His Majesty." I'll do the work myself. "

"Sagan, I'm old."

"At the end of the day, will you leave the dirty work to me?"... this is what we started with. "

Relatives of the predecessor queen Azraliel. A veteran who failed to save his daughters who could be queens.

Make a false queen. This scam against the world was planned by him and Klaus Livot.

"I will have the results delivered to you." Well, if there's enough time, potatoes

"... I see."

Holding Dietrich's shoulder, Helmut lightly patted his back.

"... so you don't regret it."

"I have never regretted my choice."

"Haha, that's right. That's what you are."

Helmut leaves Dietricht.

He deepened his wrinkles.

He said in a gentle voice.

"They regretted it." Time and time again, I have drawn you into this path. "

"... Old Sagan"

"I don't have to tell you anymore. Well done, you guys.... on behalf of our aristocrats who were too shallow and stupid to kill each other here, I offer my sincere thanks.... I'll take care of the mess.... the time left is short, but think carefully and choose your path."

General!

I'm coming!

Helmut returns his heel after being summoned by his men.

Then, waving his hand, he went down a staircase separate from the way where Reginald and the others came, in a light footstep that made him feel the weight of his armor.

In an unoccupied room, Detraut looks up at the ceiling.

In the green garden above the clouds, the goddess invites the holy woman. A saintess walking through the sky looks back and sends blessings to those who remain on earth.

After looking at the painting for a while, she exhaled and turned back to the throne room.

A river of blood flowed from the folding wreckage, and the shoe jumped.

The master sat on the throne.

It's been a long time since I've been dressed in women's clothes. He glanced at Ditrout, who appeared from the side door.

Good job. Where's your head and tail?

"I killed all but Reginald." He'll take care of it in the basement after Old Sagan talks. "

Yeah.

“I hope you don't regret it.”

"That's what you said to your brother, right?" It's not for me. "

Serenity laughed out loud.

"I've spoken correctly with myself."...... I've been looking after you for a long time. "

Helmut supported Serenity on his own behalf, even though Dietrich was absent from his life. His relationship with Ditrault is much deeper than his own.

"... for now, I wonder if this will clear up my pre-departure concerns."... I have to thank Cynthia. "

Cynthia is not talking about the Holy Maiden.

I mean the makeup artist he was wearing.

She was the one who noticed Reginald using the underpass.

When I decided to return my daughter, who was protected in this country, to a neighbouring country, she told me about the way out.

There was an old road leading to the Imperial Castle.

There are no chips in the old blueprints, when they were taken out, and who can take them out? After a brief examination of the information, including the investigation request that it had been issued in the city, Reginald's plan was immediately known.

Therefore, the road connecting the outside to the royal castle was closed with the minimum necessary. Diana's two paths are also immersed in water and sand.

Serenity tries to open her mouth again.

Ditrout changed the subject.

I can't see you.

"She's going to see what's going on outside to get rid of the clothes I was wearing."

"Why... are you wearing a dress now?"

When Reginald found out that they had entered the castle from the tunnel, Serenesti would have worn the boys' clothes until Dietrich left the castle.

"Finally, if you want to sit on the throne, you can wear this attire." Because the king of this country is still a [Serenity] at this moment. "

Serenity answers by pulling the hem of the costume with her fingers. The chains of ornaments tangled in his wrist shone.

"The last time I spoke to you, Sele told me." Protect me. "... I wonder if I was protected. The future in which Cele lived. Even though he was noble, smart, and tough, he was a child who could show hope to everyone--would he have kept him alive to this day?"

Absolutely.

Ditrout answered.

"Remember that?" When I was just back here, I would have marched all over the city. "

With the Mariages?

"No, more than once."

However, since the situation has plummeted, it hasn't been gorgeous for a long time.

Her husband narrowed his eyes with a bitter smile.

"There you go. That's not true."

"Including the procession during that honor visit... there were many people outside the city who smiled at you and waved their hands at you."

They all dreamed of a bright and warm future when the bloody winter days were over.

“The sight of that time is the answer to what you've done.”

Not the ruined king's city?

"The king's city is rough, but we rolled up as many seeds as we could." You did everything you could. I am proud to be your servant. ”

"-Yeah."

Serenity touched it.

When he was young, Dietricht remembered him.

Serenity raised her face again.

"Hey, brother, if...."

He could not speak to everyone.

The royal castle shook heavily from the ground.

"What, what...!?"

Die put his hand against the wall beside him. The location is a corridor on the third floor of the main shrine. The decorated vase fell off the pedestal and shattered, apparently unable to withstand the vibrations.

The ground shook for a while.

D'Artagnan, who was attached to the window nearby, smashed the inserted glass outwards with the handle of the sword he was wearing on his waist.

Die, can you come this way?

"Yes, yes..."

Die crawled halfway to the floor, taking Daddy's hand, which was stretched out. And he drew near unto him, and lifted up his face as he looked out.

Is it gunpowder?

"Yeah. Son of a bitch. Someone put a fire in it."

From the corner of the Imperial Castle from the window, I could see a fierce fire. That way is the main gate where the die left Brenda and the others.

The die moaned with a twitching voice.

"Brenda...!"

"I'm safely over there." Believe in your knights. "

When anxiety elements take consciousness, this time you will kill yourself.

"Focus on your role," said Dadan, shaking Die's arm.

"What are you doing with the gunpowder?"

"You blew up the door to enter the Imperial Castle. Let's hurry."

The royal castle was more dense than expected. Not only the original structure, but the doors are locked everywhere. Although it was good to enter the main palace, I still could not reach the office building.

They'll catch up with us.

Daddy broke the window further. Carefully remove the remaining glass from the pier. He continued to remove the rope from his waist, made some knots, and tied it to the pedestal of the vase, and took a fulcrum on the pier of the window.

I'm going through there to the office building.

Daddy pointed to the roof of the crossing hallway that leads to the office building. I can see the roof of the cross that leads to the other tower.

But to get there, you have to go down half a floor from here and walk to the roof on the second floor of the main palace.

"I'll go down first and secure the scaffolding." When you light up the power stone and give a signal, pass the rope down. "

Alone!?

"Yes, make the knot a scaffold." Worst of all, you have to let go of the rope. If it slips and falls, I'll hold it. "

Daddy put a bandage on Die's glove. If it burns due to the friction heat, it seems to throw away the bandage.

Are you worried about Die's expression? Daddy instructed Dai to loosen the leather belt on his waist. The tip of the rope was pulled through the leather belt around the die's waist.

"I'm going down like I'm not weighing you down, but just in case, you should try putting a scratch on the window."

Got it.

The die nodded quickly, or Daddy gripped the end of the rope and jumped out of the window.

He kicked the wall and cut the momentum of the fall. Repeat it three times before landing safely on the roof of the second floor.

The hustle and bustle of people begins to resound from behind.

After a while, I saw a blink of light in the darkness at night.

Die climbed up the window and jumped down with a rope.

A strong wind blowing from the sea winds up my hair and clothes.

In an instant, Die saw.

The horizon is already the setting sun of the ocean.

A bundle of light blinking pale in the background.

A petite girl is wandering on a deck lit by minimal light.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty Akselina!"

Sairies called out, and Accelina Valera Zemnam, the master, looked back. Because it will be the first time in about a year since the first continental conference, even in such an urgent situation, it seems that it is somehow floating.

Alarmed by the Sairies, Accelina opened her mouth with a dazed look on her face.

"Even if you don't worry like that, you won't come out to the edge." It's good to be thrown out into the ocean. "

“I'm glad you understand.”

"Before I left Zemnam, I was told from time to time." Let's see how young I am... "

Sairies pushed his knee beside Accelina. Her still tiny body is wrapped in her fur coat.

Axelina murmured as she stared out of her furry face and looked at the rising shoreline of the buds at the end of the dark night.

That's Perfilia.

The voice echoed unbelievably.

And they departed from Zemnam by night. At that time the king's capital, which he saw from the sea, was shining with the lights of the people who lived.

Meanwhile, the capital of the kingdom of Perfilia is terribly dark.

The white of the buildings, including the Imperial Castle, seemed pale in the dark.

From time to time, orange flashes like a flame.

Accelina shakes her lips in pain.

"... I hope no one's dead."

Yeah, you're right.

I especially hope that those who have become close to me will be safe.

I didn't bring Axelina to show her body.

Your Majesty, it's time to get inside. Soon the boat will be shaking heavily. "

Sairies pushed the lord's back and urged him to enter the ship. Leave her to the guard and stop walking behind her as soon as you step into the cabin.

That's how I laughed unstoppably.

"Come on, don't you really die..." Otherwise, it won't be interesting at all. "

We didn't come here to attend the funeral.

We have come to find a way to rejuvenate our people.

When Sairies entered the ship, the door was tightly closed behind him.

Enter the first class cabin where the magic has been applied to mitigate the shake. The queens and prime ministers of the world surround the wooden table. Sairies smiled and told them.

"Now let's get into Perfilia." Everyone, are you ready? "
