The Queen’s Cosmetician

In the street looking down through the window, there are more and more people bustling around yesterday.

The shopkeepers encouraged him to set up an outdoor shop, and the seller stood up. Sweet flavors such as seeds, water candy and baked confectionery sautéed in salt. I even sell petals in units of one kilo. Street art stood on the shoulders, as if it were a festival.

"Die, please wait"

As the die looked back at the door of the room, Fabian stood.

"The carriage is here. Let's go."

Follow him down the stairs. On the ground floor, Claire is proceeding to leave the inn. Die glanced at her and passed behind it.

Horse hissing greets the die that went out the front door. The carriage being sidelined is a bicep of deer hair. The two Fabian escorts were talking about something with your man, and the pivotal Fabian was already waiting for a sitting die in his seat.

As per his invitation, Die rushed over. Fabian says to the die who hangs his foot on the stepping stone.

"The road is crowded. Let's hurry."

"What about Mr. Claire?

I'm here.

Soon Claire, who was catching up, offers her auxiliary hand to the die.

"Master Furby. where are the idiots riding the carriage before the ladies"

"... I'm here. Sorry."

"Uh, never mind"

Die is more or less a man on the scene. It's not the first thing to do to get in and out of a carriage.

Die lowered his hips opposite Fabian. Claire sits side by side with him. And the door was shut at the hand of the man, and the carriage was gone, and ran out toward the castle.

"And I'm glad you made it to the castle safely."

Die smiled at the two facing each other.

Perfilia issued permission late last night for Fabian's visit requested by Doppelgum. It seems that the two countries were quite able to rub it over the technique of [transmission].

"Really."

Fabian agreed.

"Thought you'd never get poked at."

"Speaking of which, Dadan had also decided from his head that permission to climb the castle would be lowered, right? Is there a reason?

"I told you Doppelgum was a friend of Clan Hive's, right? Rejecting us for no obnoxious reason can piss off the clan. As a Perfilia, I want to avoid it. I thought you'd be able to get into the castle."

"I see."

"On the face of it, I think I'm going to accept it and make it go home properly. … from this designation of time, I'm going to tell you that I want to finish what I don't like."

The designated time to climb the castle is early morning. As soon as the royal castle officials have finished their morning deliberations, it is time.

This one tongued Perfilia's response, which predicted that it would be too early for lunch. Dadan, in particular, did not hide his sinister face because he had set the focus of the plan at noon. It seems difficult to speed up even if delays can be made.

"Is Dadan going to be okay?

Dadan has been acting differently since last night when he decided to make up his mind as planned. It was supposed to be a hand to rendezvous outside the Wang capital if it was carried well.

"I think you'll be fine. Something more careful than us."

Fabian told me to encourage the die.

"Whatever it is about Dadan, we need to do something right about ourselves first"

Correct your residence, Fabian says. Die nodded loudly.

"As I said yesterday... to be careful not to be pulled away from us. … be careful what you say to avoid being taken as a pledge."

"Yes."

"And when it comes to the story that Delligeria and Perfilia are in conflict, we pull ourselves back. Like?"

"I know, sir"

"Die."

"Yes."

"Nice to meet you... please"

Until the time I met with Dadan, for a minute and a half.

Reuniting with the mariages by then and staying away from the Fabians is an absolute condition.

Die laughed.

"That's my cobbler."

It doesn't matter. It involves me so far. I can't thank you enough for that.

You put them in danger.

Die bowed his head.

"Please, thank you"

The momentum of the Queen, sharply dressed in the air with the sound of her heels and going down the hallway, is similar to a glimmer of wind.

None of the soldiers stopping by the wall could hide the tension. The same was true of those who followed the queen. Escorts, civilians, women officers, they're all about to make their faces strong.

DiTrout followed the queen's back, looking through her chest at how she had been so far.

It was yesterday evening that Doppelgum interviewed me for an emissary visit. There has been little direct national traffic with that country. When did everyone suspect their ears of that so sudden request?

Before granting permission in view of various circumstances, I cannot handle guests from Doppelgum unhindered. There is also the case of Mariage, who cages in a reception hotel. Serenesty was in a bad mood for a visit by a disturber.

The reason Serenesty himself nevertheless travels to see each other is to show the uninvited in a clear and sincere manner. If the lord himself welcomed him, even if he was driven back in four and a half minutes, he could not be said to have been cold. Doppelgum also has a face.

But things were more troublesome than I imagined.

When he stepped in between the sights, Ditrout thought of it.

The castle climbing process didn't have to lag too long to be afraid.

The pick-up officer leads us through the main building. The area is very quiet on the other hand, the distant gaze is annoying.

The place I reached was very similar to the room where I was about to be dropped. A carpet that breaks a polished white floor in half lengthwise. Before it leads, the state-stamped stage and throne.

The queens of Perfilia enter the room through a door where the likely bent soldiers consolidate their sides.

The Fabians take their seats together. Die stood up and looked up at the sandalwood, imitating it too.

Six of them appeared. Half of them are soldiers in matching squad uniforms. They waited scattered on both ends of the sandalwood. The other three are faces that Die also found out. Serenesty, X., and Ditrout.

Dadan's blow didn't seem to give him any sequelae. You don't look sick.

I was relieved by that.

Serenesty glanced only for a moment and immediately erased his expression and reached the throne. Ditrout stands beside it. Xu was serving behind the two.

"Thank you very much for allowing such a sudden prayer."

Waiting for a signal to allow him to speak, Fabian put his hand on his chest and thanked him.

"I am Fabian Barnier, lead diplomat of Doppelgham"

Its side, visible over Fabian's shoulders, is colored with a deep grin.

"It's an honor to be the first to see you. Her Majesty Queen Serenesti Yerni Perfilia, as well as His Excellency Lord Yerni, Chancellor Ditrout Yerni"

Die shifted his gaze to Fabian, who greets him. The light that shoots through the skylight illuminates its back. His wrinkle-free outfit is dark green reminiscent of black pearls. There is a design sewn in with silk thread of the same colour with trees and swords.

It is only permissible for the Queen's side to wrap the National Chapter around it.

Just like Die or Ditrout.

That should have nothing to do with why Perfilia tolerated Fabian's ascent.

(Really, you've taken it very well, haven't you...)

There is no guarantee that there will not necessarily be danger to him. Fabian safety is only based on the premise that Perfilia wants to avoid a war with Clan Hive.

I was as horrified as I am now that I got him involved.

"It is a great honor to welcome our guests in this way from the rumored Cui of the Abyss."

Serenesty labored Fabian with an eagle-fringed smile, shifting his eyes to a die that refrained behind his oblique back. She observes the die as she licks it and thins its pale eyes cold.

"I see you're not just from Doppelgum. Can you explain under what circumstances you brought an irrelevant person?

An elbow hanging on the throne, Serenesty says sharply.

"Only you and your servants, three of whom I have given permission to see. We do not acknowledge the fifth guest."

"With all due respect, Your Majesty."

Die graciously moved on.

"Permission granted."

Serenesty glances uncomfortably.

Die looked straight at her and smiled.

"I'm late for my application. I have been awarded the National Chapter by Queen Mariage of Delligeria and I work as a full-time cosmetician - my name is Die. I have come late to greet Her Majesty Queen Serenesti."

Serenesty snorted at Die's remarks.

"Congratulations on your bullshit. If you're already a makeup artist, go to the castle with Queen Mariage."

"That's sincerely odd. I am the only makeup artist who has the trust of Queen Mariage over the fold of Queen's candidacy."

"You're the one who's saying stupid things. Queen Mariage and her entourage were accompanied by my soldiers as a guide over Marlen. We have received reports from that soldier that the cosmetologist has indeed arrived in Wangdu. Conspire to take a stand, and go up to my castle with your earthfoot, and think you deserve to be sentenced for the sins that have defiled my eyes"

"Then I will ask you. Queen Serenesti, have you met that makeup artist?

Serenesty clogs his throat.

Die continued the questioning.

"As this jacket shows, the makeup artist is near the queen's first side. Your Majesty has decided to greet you at the banquet hall where you will host. Did Your Majesty say that My Lord, Queen Mariage, has already introduced me to a makeup artist?

Serenesty frowns at the root, pulling her lips hard and knotting.

If you answered yes here, Serenesty would have figured it out when Die demanded an interview with the mariages.

Human beings who don't exist can't be drawn out. Given Fabian's presence, we shouldn't even be able to prepare a fake.

"-... in awe, His Majesty mistook me for someone. Come on?

Die asked to speak.

"As I'm sure His Majesty knows, in Marlen we have been attacked by thieves and injured by those who were hiring us to guide them. Though I gained nothing, I was ill and striving to rest and recuperate in the Wang Du Inn. We met strangely ahead of us, and it was up to Barnier, the Foreign Secretary, to accompany us."

"… Prime Minister"

Ditrout faces up to Serenesty's call.

"Yes."

"Were you getting reports that the makeup artist was resting more under the castle?

"... no"

With a slight silence, Ditrout supplemented.

"We just don't see if the makeup artist came to the castle with Queen Mariage."

Serenesty nodded to his brother and looked at the die with sorrow.

"You're right, you must have been mistaken.... has made me uncomfortable with those near Queen Mariage. I apologize."

The change of attitude is so clean that it claps out.

"Queen Mariage must have been eager for your arrival, too. Let me show you."

She invited the soldiers to refrain at the wall and ordered them to go under the die by hand. Accepted. They descend the steps. It also continued after that.

"Foreign Secretary Barnier, please stay here. I'd really like to hear about the Abyss Cui."

"Please wait"

Fabian gently stops the soldiers surrounding the die.

Serenesty frowned.

"Can I help you? Barnier, Foreign Secretary."

"Your Majesty, please listen to me. Permission to see me with Queen Mariage."

Serenesty appears to have been offended by Fabian's petition.

Fabian ignored the queen's cold gaze perfectly, smiling and beginning to explain.

"Does Your Majesty know? Retrospectively, eight years ago, although my country, Doppelgum, declared its founding, it was not dealt with by any country and was in difficulty…. He reached out to me at that time, and now he's the late Queen of Delligeria, Lady Eirene."

With Delligeiria's blessings, the "Cui of the Abyss" was recognized by various foreign nations.

This would be the case where Dadan was suspected to be between Doppelgum.

"Del Ligueiria is a great country for our country"

said Fabian.

"I would also like to say hello to those of you who are revealed to be queens of that country.... Her Majesty Queen Serenesti"

Fabian begs, please.

"Allow me to pray to Queen Mariage."

Serenesty meditates.

When she opened her eyes between them, she returned no to Fabian.

"If you wish, I will see Queen Mariage again later."

She brushes a smile on her lips and slowly narrows her eyes.

The Ethereal Eye behind it was against the mouth, and the shards were not laughing.

"... Barnier, Foreign Secretary, stay here now. You asked for a look with me to make a hole in my plans. Nevertheless, I pray to the other queens immediately, face-to-face with me. Do you understand that disrespect?

The voice is cold and sharp enough to poppy the skin. Soldiers blues at the way the queen looks like she's angry.

Fabian, on the other hand, was floating despite being directly accused.

"Ah, Your Majesty! I'm sorry you seem to have offended me! My apologies! I had no intention of losing any respect for His Majesty!

Speak up in vain and shake your head aloft. I stroke my nerves backwards, actor-membered motion.

"I was just wondering if I could wish Queen Mariage enough. Perfilia, del Ligueiria...... and me, Doppelgum. The opportunity for humans from the three countries to meet together is not what it is. I would like to make it even more meaningful if His Majesty would give me your precious time."

"Is Queen Mariage unhappy in her absence? Barnier, Foreign Secretary."

"If Queen Mariage is not present, can I show you my dissatisfaction? Her Majesty Queen Serenesti."

Fabian smiles unharmed.

"Even if Her Majesty Queen Serenesty gave me this opportunity, I think it would be a loss."

"... I understand very well"

Serenesty nodded and looked at Fabian.

"Barnier, Foreign Secretary. I guess you're right. But if it's a meeting between the three countries, we need a lot of support."

I cannot accept the request. She proclaimed clearly.

"Whoever pursues the two rabbits shall not get a single rabbit. If you'd rather have a meeting with Queen Mariage than me, you can go home."

Tell him not to hesitate and Serenesty rises from the throne.

"Please Wait"

Die stopped her flipping the costume hem.

"Your Majesty understates what it means to have me and Barnier in front of His Majesty."

"... what does that mean?

"I am here with Foreign Secretary Barnier in order to see the official also with my Lord. My will is that of Queen Mariage. How would you like to return the Barnier diplomat without my Lord's understanding?"

"I'm not going to treat Doppelgum with me unhindered."

Serenesty immediately disproves.

"But even with me, you don't have time to tear it apart if you're not going to have a friendly relationship with me."

"How can a suggestion that we should not talk in three countries be hostile to you?

"If your queen wasn't here, you wouldn't think she was fooling me, would you?

She chills the die.

"Her Majesty Queen Mariage seems to be miseducated on the side. Watch your mouth. Or are you really close to your majesty? Aren't you still plotting your identity?

"Shall I prove it?

Serenesty whispers and skews his face in surprise.

"... are you going to give me your ID?

"If you want."

Die nearly smiled at Serenesty.

"But then there is no art. How about one thing here - … you'll appreciate my moves."

Die swallowed his spit and dampened his dry throat.

"My country, Del Ligueiria, bears the name 'Small Country of Geisha'. Sculptor to musician, poet and painter. The Horsemen hire a variety of traders to love and sometimes compete in the art they produce. I am also the end of those people."

"I thought you said you'd be entertaining makeup?

"Exactly."

"... nonsense"

The statement does not belong to Serenesty.

It belonged to a ditlout who kept silent.

"You call yourself a makeup artist. You can leave early before they hit you."

"I will see it with His Excellency the Chancellor. Is it not on this occasion that the rejection of my proposal could be taken as taking our country lightly and with the intention of hostility?

Fabian glances at the die. That's a warning not to say anything more.

I know, whining in his chest, Die pursued Serenesty.

"-... and how many replies do you have?
