The Queen’s Cosmetician

A sunny sky with flower seasons. A man is sitting on a chair by the window facing it, looking up into the sky.

The die closed the door behind him. No, maybe it closed on its own. Once, there was a sound separating the spaces, and for the first time, the man turned around.

He was a beautiful man.

Although the dress is coarse, it feels like an obvious object, with a straight face and body. Ivory skin on golden hair. And the blue eyes were the same as the sky behind them.

A man stands up with his eyes wide open.

At the same time, the die was rushing out.

Heath!

"Dia...!"

Die put his hand around his neck and hugged him. Heath, who seized the body, entangles the chair and falls over.

Heath, resting her back on the wall under the window with the die on top of her hoof, exhaled a deep breath of relief.

"It's dangerous... didn't you hit your head?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm fine... Heath, Heath?"

The die touched Heath's cheek.

The last time I saw him, he was as white as a wax. After receiving the treatment of Treatment Ball , even if it seems that the light or the blood color has returned, it is only the sunshine that has been shining, and the closed eyelids remain stuck. Heath was the last of Fabian's men to see him.

The cheeks touched were warm, and his hands, which were overlaid on the die, were even hotter.

Yes.

Alive?

"I'm alive."

Really?

Yeah, I think so.

― ― Mariage said as a reward for the die.

(Mariage)

You made your wish come true.

Adding the quiet gaze of the master in the hallway and the depth of emotion he held at that time, the emotional weir collapsed unbearably.

Die cried, and without understanding himself, he lined up the words he had come up with.

"Heath, good, Maria, Mariage-sama, help me, help Heath, and Mariage-sama, understand me, help me, help me, help me, help me, help me"

Diana

The voice of Amayakana spins his name, and the forehead of the man meets the head of the die.

A large palm envelops the die's cheek.

The blue eyes reflect the face of her crying daughter. He smiled and layered his lips.

His palm slipped down his cheeks, wiped his tears, combed his hair down, and hugged him tightly.

Someday, as the kiss deepened, Die closed his eyes and hugged the man back.

while giving himself over to deep relief.

"I think the dies will come later."

Mariage, who suddenly appeared in Rodimus' office, made a sudden statement.

Rodimus drove the lieutenants out of the room. I nodded convincingly, suggesting a seat for Mariage.

"It was about today." Got it. Let's get the documents together. When is it going to be? "

"Come on. I forgot to tell you where you are, so I'm picking up Randy." It's not that late, is it? "

I won't let you slow down, will I?

"It's your fault you're not free." You're going out in the evening, aren't you? "

"... I wonder who's to blame for my busy schedule, Your Majesty."

"Fools who have messed up the continent."

"... there's no objection."

However, with the whole continent turned upside down, Mariage could be said to have gotten everything she wanted.

She complains about her hectic schedule, but she doesn't make a fuss because she knows it's the price she wants.

Rodimus kicks out the tea brewing lady after the civil servant. Because I don't want people to hear what I'm going to tell you.

I closed the key, confirmed that [Silence] 's magic was activated, and returned to face to face with Mariage. She struggled with the tea and muttered in a surprisingly unexpected voice.

The first day of the Continental Conference at the Royal Castle of Perfilia.

"--Is it all right for Her Majesty and the Prime Minister to stay?"

Determine the future major muscles, rooted in the Church of Our Lady, and selected envoys and soldiers to the eastern part of Perfilia. Tomorrow, the Perfilian nobility will also be in the meeting, and after finishing some discussion, Mariage called out to the rulers.

The requested side all looked strange, but they were ordered to leave the conference room to [Holding the National Badge] other than the escort, clerk, and prime minister.

The Chancellors close to the door locked their seats and the Queen of Don Fan opened her mouth on behalf of everyone.

"... I'd like to ask you something about your story, Mariage."

“There is one more thing we would like you to give us in return for depositing all the regions of Perfilia, except the east, in one country.”

"... besides what we discussed earlier?"

There are three broad categories of things that Mariage would like to acquire through the Continental Conference.

One. Don't hurry, but still make sure to find a way to change the terms of succession to the throne and get the Queens to agree to it.

Secondly, the right to intervene politically in Perfilia.

And.

"Chancellor Ditrout Yerni, in custody"

Mariage asked in the guise of calm.

It should not have been understood that the most desirable thing was the presence of this man, and that for that reason he had decided to carry it to Perfilia.

I just have to be "at the same time," and think that I want a man.

Everyone was breathed in by Mariage's remarks.

Sairies laughed and pointed out the interesting wind.

"I thought you said you were going to kill Chancellor Yerni today." Do you mean you want a body? "

“No, exactly, the life of the man who was Ditrout Yerni.”

“You're saying the opposite!”

"After all, what do you want to do?"

“To put it bluntly, we are not actually going to kill Prime Minister Yerni after his death. I want to change my name and keep it in Del Ligeiria. Is that what this is all about?"

Prime Minister Altose is right.

Mariage nodded deeply to Doppelgum's Chancellor.

"I need a little information on Perfilia."

Besides, the most intelligent being is Ditraut Yerni. Prime Minister Perfilia is the man.

"Are you going to leave it to the Prime Minister to negotiate with the Perfilian nobility?"

“No way. If you do something like that, would it be like saying that Chancellor Yerni is alive?”

Absolutely, Mariage responded to Farrill's queen. Glance at Rodimus and let him explain.

"... Prime Minister Yerni has a different name and background, and is considered a different person." In addition, I would like you to engage in the reconstruction of Perfilia. If the person so wishes, "

“However, as I said today, if Prime Minister Yerni finds out that he is alive, there will be many problems. For a few years I spent in the royal castle of Del Ligeiría, and I will not have any contact with the Perfilian people, and I will not tell the Perfilian side of its survival.”

"Is it Prime Minister Yerni's remedy?... I know it would be safer to keep him at a distance like ours, given the danger of his existence..."

"Prime Minister Bernmek"

Mariage smiles at Don Fan's Chancellor, who seems to have realized the value of Ditraut Yerni.

“You all know that even though my country is a neighbor, I was not so close to Perfilia. Geographically, the Perfilian nobility is not certain to help. The farther away you are, the more you may open your chest without any historical conviction.”

He implicitly warned us that Del Ligueiria was in a tougher situation than the distant countries responsible for the east.

"That's why I don't want to borrow the wisdom of Prime Minister Yerni.... or do you still want to help us more? It's not a tariff, it's a direct tariff....."

Chancellor Yerni would like you to spend some time at the Royal Castle of Del Ligueilia.

Did you think it was impossible to get additional financial support? Zext's queen opens her mouth in panic.

Is that something that has been honored and vowed to the Lord God?

"Of course. If you only want that wisdom, you don't need to prepare your name and background." Nevertheless, I know that it is more difficult for the people of Perfilia not to leave the boundaries of Chancellor Yerni's face for the time being. ”

The official residence of Del Ligeigeigeigeia is required at the royal castle, so most of them do not leave the royal castle area. At first, it will be an invisible dwelling, but I am still going to prepare for a normal life.

"It is okay to have a trusted official resident in the confirmation." It will be easier for us to cooperate with you. ”

Del Ligueilia is also planning to send officials to the east, but it has nothing to do with real politics. Cooperation is bound to be inferior to that of other countries. So if you put a liaison officer in Del Ligeigeigeia, that's not going to be the end of it.

provided, however, that in the case of a permanent official, the cost thereof shall be in the home country, and the official shall know that Detraut Yerni is alive, and shall be able to strictly observe the confidentiality.

If you were to ask whether you have so many people who can be trusted and sent to other countries, perhaps no country would.

(That said, I think it's insane to barge the Prime Minister into another country.)

"... we cannot agree with Queen Mariage's opinion."

The queen of Farril said bitterly.

“We decided to bury Chancellor Yerni, didn't we? If his survival were to come to light, everything he negotiated with the Church could be overthrown.”

"I also... agree with Master Ryumiella"

Zexton's queen said with a sigh.

“If we put it in Del Ligeigeigeigeia, it will be easier to get in touch with the Perfilia workers. Is it possible that Chancellor Yerni is angry at the situation in which Del Rigueira is holding Perfilia? If you don't get along very well, that's even worse."

The Queen of Zext continues to faint the relationship between nations mentioned by Mariage.

"The danger level jumps up." I... don't take Chancellor Yerni's orders lightly. "

"Prime Minister Yerni will have my most trusted custodian."

Mariage's remarks gathered the attention of the crowd to Rodimus. He smiled back at the queens. as if I were going to be the "manager".

Then, whether or not to let Ditraut Yerni live. Controversy ensued among the rulers over whether it would be appropriate to place it in Del Ligueiria as a means of keeping it alive.

Mariage struggled to disguise herself as plain. The fist hidden under the table was throbbing as it wanted to throw the writing instruments on the spot.

(Ah, just approve it!)

Rodimus, next door, would have been pissed off at Mariage's sign.

Don't let them understand that their biggest goal is a shiny rabbit. That's why it was better to avoid jumping statements, and Mariage had no choice but to keep quiet and watch the rulers' arguments.

They have taken a helpless turn.

For the sake of the peace of the country, I decided that it would be appropriate to slay one person's life without regard to the intention of the person, and I was pointed out again about its usefulness, and I wanted it.

On the other hand, they were afraid. For the future of the continent, I sell my grace to the Church of Our Lady to change the conditions for succession to the throne. It would have been contrary to their faith. The queens of the same faith are somehow suppressing their fears by putting their own survival at risk.

The survival of Ditraut Yerni may one day reveal the fact that they plotted their sin - the Church.

That's why I want to erase it. It is a natural defensive reaction on the part of those who must remain in power.

"I approve of Queen Mariage's request."

The queen who ended the discussion was Axelina.

Sairies looks at her in a panic.

Your Majesty, that's easy.

"Saia, let me talk to you." I want everyone to listen to me. "

Axelina was the youngest of the rulers. She is a slightly eight-year-old queen. Even during the meeting, Sairies basically spoke, and she rarely spoke. When Mariage said she wanted to kill Detraut, she raised her accusations.

Axelina understands. How young you are and how unsuitable you are to participate in the discussion. That is why he is careful to keep his mouth shut.

Because the rulers knew that, they listened with a serious face to Axelina, who dared to speak.

"I came to Perfilia to save people. I don't want anyone to die. Whether it be called the Torah, or the Holy Ghost:... I think that sin, after all, is an idea seen from someone else, and that there is a lot of salvation from someone else. So, for whatever reason, you don't have to kill me."

", said Axelina.

"And being alive doesn't mean just breathing. I think that it is alive to get up on my own, choose the clothes that I like, learn what I like and dislike, and let someone do the work, talk, laugh, and do that."

Axelina's mother has been in a slumber since she was born.

Not physically dead, but the mind is in eternal sleep. Axelina dreamed that her sleeping mother would one day get up and hug her daughter.

Mariage knew that.

"I heard everyone's stories. I think Queen Mariage is the one who wants to keep Chancellor Yerni alive.... Queen Serenity thought of the people of Perfilia until the end. I heard that voice in the boat. Then his brother, Chancellor Yerni, shall be his brother.... it's so far from Zemnam, even if it's a very early ship. Farther away, it's harder to help. If you're still awake and decide what to do with Chancellor Yerni, you can't leave Perfilia.”

Axelina looks straight at Mariage.

"You've grown up," said Mariage with a strange emotion. When we first met, Axelina was only six years old, and her words were awkward, and there was a place where others' opinions could be heard.

While she is young, she sees the situation and speaks as a queen.

"Queen Mariage, is your Majesty really going to let Chancellor Yerni live?"

Absolutely.

Mariage smiled and nodded her head.

"As I told Rodimus, Prime Minister Yerni will be engaged in the reconstruction of Perfilia." But before I do that, I will ask for your wishes. We will cooperate to some extent, but we will never take it lightly. To protect Chancellor Yerni, both in the Imperial Castle and the Custodian. I swear to the Lord God. "

Mmm, the Sairies nodded beside Axelina.

"--Do you really think you can escape the danger by just doing that?"

"Sairies Karestia"

In a harsh voice, Axelina calls her own Prime Minister.

Sairies' expression turned to the young queen.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

“I'll say it again and again. We came to save Perfilia. Killing people and keeping them out of harm's way is not going to save them. I said I approve of Queen Mariage's idea. If that's dangerous, think of a way to get rid of it. I swear by the National Chapter, I will fulfill what I have decided.... the answer, Prime Minister?"

Sairies took a breath and looked back at Axelina, deeply nagging for approval.

Let's take care of it, my lord.

Axelina ruled Zemnam, the most powerful of them all.

Her words became decisive, and Detraut Yerni was secretly transferred to Del Rigeira.

There is no confirmation of the intention of the person.

The queen of Don Fan asks Mariage.

If Chancellor Yerni refuses to cooperate, what will Mariage do?

"I won't do anything about it.... Prime Minister Yerni will respond. For the people of Perfilia."

Mariage answers and thinks about the possibilities pointed out.

It's not that I don't have it at all.

Because.

"What are you doing!"

"Die, are you alright!?"

"Huh!?"

As the door opened, Randy and Brenda rushed into the room.

Die, who had been pushed down by the Heath halfway, hurriedly raised his upper body and looked at the guards on his shoulder.

I'm angry. It's already gone to hell.

Randy pulls Heath's body back by force and Brenda raises the die.

Randy grabbed Heath's chest with a fierce grip.

"What are you doing to the die!"

"Wow, Randy, please calm down! And Brenda!"

"Can you stay calm!?" My husband was being attacked!? I shouldn't have waited outside! "

"I'm fine!" So, what's Randy doing here!? "

"His Majesty told me!" Take him to your lordship! You said you wanted to be with the die, but you're taking him with you!? "

"I'm sure it is!? Anyway, would you both please go outside!?"

Die!

"Don't worry! Just keep your head cool outside!"

I pushed them back out of the room and closed the door violently.

The die locked and exhaled deeply. Let's hope Randy and the others knock on the door, but it won't break.

Die walked underneath Heath.

"Oh, I'm sorry. You're surprised. Both of you, in my escort."

"Ah... no. It's okay. It's a natural reaction."

Heath opened his eyes to the busy guards, but gently laughed and accepted Die's apology.

Nice to meet you.

”Well, after I lost contact with the opposite sex...... Heath?”

Heath pulls the die's arm and sits it down on her lap.

He pressed his eyelids against the die's shoulder and asked in a quiet voice.

“Did you lose anyone?”

Cold water, please.

I felt like I had a shower.

Die answered with a trembling voice.

"Yes.... everyone was safe."

The Del Ligeigeiglia side.

Anyone close to the die.

Heath muttered in a faint voice, reassured by Die's answer.

"... I'm glad."

Then I rubbed my eyes against the die's neck.

My skin gets hot and wet when I touch it.

The die poured its fingertips into Heath's hair.

She held the head of the man who cried quietly and burst out.

He was overwhelmed by the joy of being alive.

Heath lost everything and was here.

― ― It was Die's own goodness that kept him alive.

And will this man be convinced to stay under himself?
