The Queen’s Cosmetician

The Queen's silence lasted only a few moments.

"Dadan."

"... what?

Mariaj declares to the man who has risen to his senses.

"I'll break your contract here."

"Dear Mariage!?

Die peeled his eyes and blamed his husband. Alvina and Assé are also strangely frowning.

"What are you going to do?

When I didn't know what it meant, Dadan embarked on himself, too. Disturbance fills the room in Russia. But Mariaj can't see you passing through everyone's confusion.

She explained pale.

"This time, one of the Perfilia side is going to escort us to the King's Capital, right? Then I don't need any more guidance."

"I promised to get the rest when I got to King's Landing."

"I know."

A deeply nodded mariage leans over the empty tea vessel to the die. As she lay her hands on the right side of her breath, she told Dadan in an unspoken tone.

"Dadan, you're gonna have to do another job."

Dadan scratched his head and sighed.

"... I'm not exclusive to you. I'll tell you what."

I know, Mariage groaned irritably.

"Are you taking it on? You're not taking it on?

"... two hundred upfront. Three hundred bucks."

To her impending choice, Dadan shows a lot of terms.

"Then I'll work"

"Hey!"

Assé took a step towards Dadan.

I know why he gets distracted. The amount offered by the informant is broken. Coupled with this directional wage, you won't have trouble eating for a while.

But Mariage's response was resolute.

"I don't mind."

I guess Dadan himself didn't expect to be accepted. Turning a frightened eye to her, he exhales deeply.

"... so? What do you want me to do?

"I want you to look into it."

As it sounds if you hit it, Mariage said.

"Tell me about the murder of Marlen's lord and how this thief converged."

Apparently she is aware of the earlier story.

"Whether you're going to be my enemy or my ally, I want to know who attacked Marlen's lord and who got us involved."

"But isn't that pretty dangerous to find out?

Glimpse of Dadan's injury, Die inquired. Even if something happens with that, I can't respond.

Besides, Zeno and the others want to hide the truth. It was obvious at a time when Marlen's lord was announcing his death as having been attacked by a thief. The dies are rolling in, and Zeno should be tongue-in-cheek.

Will they forgive Dadan for imitating his neck any more?

"That's right."

Mariage said resolutely.

"That's why you pay. Five hundred."

Just commensurate with the danger, the consideration.

"I disagree, Your Majesty"

Assé quietly expressed.

"I don't think it's that easy to get a story out of Sir Faranx. It's pointless to pay this man to look into it."

"You think I'm gonna end up grabbing nothing?

He got angry. Dadan's groan was like a beast threat.

Nor does the assay show any signs of pulling.

"Sir Faranx should strengthen his protection. You know how to stay and listen."

Calm down, both of you.

I broke into two swordswallowed people and Die exhaled.

"Asse, dadan"

In response to the call, the men raise their faces.

"I wanted to know. But I can't stay here. That's why I leave Dadan. I've already made up my mind. All we have to do is see if Dadan takes it on."

"Fine."

Dadan put his hand on his forehead and said it looked like a hundred million bucks.

"I'll take care of it. But the investigation lasts three days."

"Why three days?

Dadan pointed to the area wrapped in a bandage on the die.

"This wound of mine, if you tell the doctor, it's going to take him three days before his sewn mouth stops opening. I decided to stay with Marlene because of this. Ask the Chancellor to arrange for me to stay in this hall. The other side is involved. The injured will take a good look at relaxing and healing."

"Okay."

"After three days, I'll head to Wang Du, too. I was suffering from an injury, and I'm going to visit you because I want to get paid for my work."

Having finished explaining the steps, he hoisted the edge of his mouth to a thin grin.

"Hey. You'll know a lot in three days.... wait in anticipation."

Wait until Rodimus returns, and the Dies adjourned. I'm just going back to the work I left to do each one of them though. After hearing briefly about his absence, Rodimus even took him out with Dadan. It would be to discuss a new contract in a separate room. Assé also turned to see the faces of his men working the night shift. Looks like we'll be ready under tomorrow.

I often accompanied the master, who leaked all sorts of stupidity while taking care of her skin from the woman officer, and when Die left the room with Alvina, who remained in the surgical adjustment, the barn house was quiet after turning at night.

"Alvey."

His voice echoed loudly as he thought, and Die hurriedly mumbled. My friend, who seems surprised, asks me with her eyes what. Die shook his head to the side.

"No...... I'm fine. Here's a little..."

My voice sounds too loud.

Oh, and Alvina nodded, howling her fingers. Phosphorescent lights fade away the corners of the neck twisting die's vision. It was a demonic light.

"If it's a conversation, it won't leak outside anymore."

Alvina was rightly drawing on Die's concerns. The magic she exercised was "silence." It's a way to keep conversations within the community from being heard from the outside.

"Thank you"

Die smiled bitterly and thanked him, saying the question again.

"So I wanted to ask... Are you sure there's no demons?

I cared. Past and present, the two groups of raiders encountered by the die have no intrinsic magic, Alvina explained. But demons are what it takes to sustain life. Is it possible that it does not exist?

"On that occasion, it was easy to say."

Alvina shook her shoulder to a small laugh.

"I don't know exactly. The amount of demons is limitless. All I need is to live. The difference with normal people is that they don't have any magic skills. So no one but a magician can tell."

"People you rarely see, are they?

"Not on this continent. Worldwide, it's not."

"Huh? Then why just now?

Die stopped by surprise.

If it's not uncommon, how could you be certain that the two pairs are companions?

Alvina smiled, meditating one eye.

"Die, did you forget? Can I tell the type of demon?

"Ah..."

Die remembered when she spotted her gender.

"Eyes on the Devil". The technique that a long time ago was also used to discern the king's blood family.

"The demons of those children are very close to each other's blood... brothers, even far away cousins, they are. It's really rare here for a kid with so few demons, so I remembered."

"Then those people really are"

"Eighty-nine, my friend."

Alvina added to the joke.

"Unless you're having a brotherly fight."

"Die or Alvina?

A call from the other side comes to words.

Dai aligned himself with Alvina and explored the sounder of his voice. He wraps around the sound of the heel slamming the floorboard, and Assé walks over.

"You hadn't gone back to your room yet?

"Isn't that right, Ass?"

Die turned to Asse. The dark shadows seen under his eyes would not be due to a lack of lighting.

"We're leaving now."

said Alvina smiling.

"What about His Highness?

"I'm about to go back, too. Let's go."

Assé glanced at the hallway and urged it.

Originally it is not such a large hall. Just a little quicker, and we'll be right in the room. I broke up with Alvina first. She is in the room with the other sorcerers.

Next was the die.

"Then Ass..."

"Die."

Assé withheld his bedtime greeting.

"... what's wrong?

Assé looks very harsh.

"I may be offended, but I'll advise you"

And he put it forward.

"Oh, it's dangerous to bring someone too close."

"... you mean Dadan?

Assé nodded mysteriously. I stared down at the die whenever I said something, but eventually I shut my mouth. I guess I guided you through the possibility that you have other people's ears.

Just one word, that's all, and he groaned.

"Your Majesty trusts that man too much"

Assay's concerns are unclear.

My first encounter with Dadan was with Rowen about six months ago. Afterwards, he and Arishuel left the country with the accompaniment of Kate, who became speechless. Hard to say we're close enough to deposit absolute trust.

This request is for a considerable amount of money just in advance. How can I say that Dadan won't run away with it?

"I'm pretty sure you're the one who gets the job done right."

Die defended Dadan.

"Alish... you sent Aliga and the others properly."

Aliga - Alishuel Gertrude. And Kite, Rowen's brother.

Cross the continent with two unfamiliar travelers. Driving and negotiating skills are needed to survive a dangerous journey. From how the Dies arrived at this Marlen, we can also glimpse from Dadan the high level of ability to ingeniously pull out the information we need.

"That's not enough credit"

Assé said resolutely. It was a very correct claim.

"I was just talking about when they attacked me."

Die dropped his gaze and changed the subject.

"What do you think is the best thing Dadan said to me when he ran over and couldn't move with a scratch?

Though he did not know the true meaning of the story, Assé answered Die's question properly.

"... come here, don't come?

"'Let the Asss stiffen up around Maria'"

Die smiled at Assé.

"Dadan worried about Mariage first and foremost. Even I was hurt."

Dadan's wounds are never shallow. Normally, I would ask you to call people for allowances or as support.

"I believe in Dadan. About the first person who showed me the mariage...... I don't have the confidence to look at people."

Assay silences. There was something bitter floating in its face.

Mariage leaves an important job to Dadan, who has no talent - even though he is qualified. Die and I feel endangered in that regard.

Still, I couldn't feel the crisis against Dadan like Assé did.

Because I believe in Mariage.

The story from Assé seemed to be over.

Once again, Die, who uttered a bedtime greeting, recalls that he has not yet thanked him.

"Thank you too, Assé."

"What?

"Please help me"

"Oh... tell Your Majesty if you thank me"

Apparently no other Mariage ordered me to see how the die disappeared from the room.

"... does he know that Assé is your own escort... No, thanks to you."

"That would mean His Majesty cares about the die.... I envy you."

In that strange tone, I was bored at noon to see if I could help the queen, his figure passing the back of my brain.

Assé is afraid.

That the Queen doesn't need it.

"Ass, it's daytime."

"Yeah?"

"Assay is never helpful."

Die held his hands together in front of his chest to theorize forcefully.

"In such a bad spot of scaffolding, beating them down without killing them... I think that's an amazing thing"

It takes more skill to capture them alive than to simply kill them. It would be all the more so if the other person was a bastard.

"Ass has power. The power to protect."

Strength cultivated by drilling since childhood.

"We trust that power, Master Mariage. I'm not as clever as I am with people who don't even believe me. That guy."

And I'm not strong enough to immediately believe others.

Therefore, on that rainy night, I chose Mariage…… I did not want to leave her alone in the swirling palace.

"So Master Mariage will take care of all the people who put them aside. I'm also concerned about Assé."

At that time, Mariage would have ordered the same, even if Die and Assé were in the opposite position.

Asse shrugged and lay face down. Flax eyelashes illuminate the light hung on the wall, brilliant as gold thread. Staring at that noble, faint face, oh I also thought that this man, while still a face master in the flower district, could not speak with ease or anything else, heh.

Assé laughed softly.

"Thanks, Die"

"No."

"Rest your body slowly. Good night."

"Yes. Thank you. Good night."

Die returned the greeting and dropped off the assay. Confirm that its back disappeared into the corner of the hallway and carefully open its own door.

Die is assigned a room with the women. The room that dropped the lantern's fire was dark, and the shadow of the bunk was blurred to the sides of the room.

The healthy sleep of the ladies already swirling in the futon is shaking the silence of the night.

Close the door. Darkness comes. Pull out your luggage by hand and finish dressing.

The moment I dived into the overlaid blanket, my consciousness was swallowed by two and darkness.
