The Queen’s Cosmetician

Chapter iii swirling intern 1

"I see..."

When Die finished reporting on the morning jewelry, Mariage groaned with a grunting sound somewhere.

I mean, this sudden rescheduling is your fault.

As Raina declared, the afternoon excursion by boat was transformed into a journey that would take a day to inspect the shores of the Lugrova River. It is the participation of all officials from Delligeiria, including the samurai.

Die abhors his voice when he's out of his heart.

"Are you going to blame me!?

"Yumas seemed busy. Before lunch, the evening inspection suddenly switched to overnight."

"Oh, I'll apologize later..."

"Nothing. You don't have to apologize. You just have to make the mayor the bad guy."

"Who said it was my fault?

"I'm sure it depends on the word Aya."

Damn, you don't lose your mouth.

Die often looked half-eyed at his master, but turned back to the front to the sound of a ringing bell. The city of Lugrois is slowly moving away. We're starting to move away from the harbor where our ships were bordering.

The proud river cruise ship of the city of Lugrois is a deck ship with three sails. It was a tough ship that could withstand the fast flow of the Lugrois River, which determines the reddish earth, with a number of large cabins. A little mansion the size of a ship as it were.

The Dies had rushed downtown and had just finished boarding this ship earlier. Yumas, the samurai must be very busy unloading in the cabin by now.

Die, on the other hand, as an accompaniment to the mariage, held back on the rooftop deck of the cabin. Square slabs include carpets, round tables and chairs. A samurai on the Lugrois side is ready for tea neatly around them. By the stairs down to the deck is the figure of the assay paying attention to vigilance. Rayna hadn't shown herself yet.

Away from Mariage, Die rode himself off the edge of the deck of the building and observed the movements of the sailors.

He rushes across the wide deck, towing ropes, and struggles to catch the wind by sail.

Their movements, which exposed their burnt skin to the daylight sun, are very rare to see.

The river bordering the king's capital of Delligeria is narrow and shallow. Naturally, there were no boat trips, and none of the Dies were far from the sailors. There is not a small amount of mind in terms of being able to touch things that cannot be seen in these own countries.

"Really, it's amazing..."

"I'm honored you said that to Die."

Zero exclamation, the die corrected his spine to the returned reaction.

"Lady Raina."

Looking at the stairs from the deck, Raina with Sheila was about to climb up slowly. She graced herself in front of the mariage as she passed by only laughing at the die. Spread your costume hem like a petal and smile straight to Mariage.

"Do you like it? Dear Mariage,"

"Absolutely."

Mariage responds with thanks.

"There is rarely such a splendid ship as this. Thank you, Mayor Lugrois, for your valuable opportunity."

"Yay, I already said please call me Raina!

Teasing, Rayna stubbornly slapped me in the arm often, and Mariage pulled my mouth.

Between the two, the die broke in hastily. I can't wait to get seized by Mariage.

"The ship, of course, but the streets were also interesting. Del Ligueiria and not at all."

The city of Lugrois, which only seemed to be a flock of boulders from afar. But its streets, which passed on the road to the harbor, were full of exotic sentiment and held a kind of relaxation.

Sun-dried brick-built collective homes, shaved by dust, are said to be home to dozens of households per building. Its huge rectangular buildings combine like building blocks across stairs.

The light is bright and the shadows are dark. But the dust is dancing, and the scenery is so gloomy. I didn't get the impression that it was a killer landscape. Floral sculptures are always applied around the windows worn on the walls, making cool noises when twisted metal bars are hung and swayed by the wind. The brightly colored cloth to which people come and go flickers. Most of them were carrying or carrying a big cage, full of brightly colored fruit. At the edge of the river, where the legumes and the plants are blue and lush, the women are putting out their finesse in washing and chatting. All the cities that stood there were vibrant.

"Very, very bright"

It's a huge difference from the people of Delligeria, who cloud their faces every day they follow.

"Die told me. You know, you're pretty concerned about people getting in and out."

"Yep. We are restricting access to the city for those who think it has a negative impact. Thanks to you, we have been able to guide the mariages safely. Did you like the city of Lugrois?

"Yep."

Raina smiled and flipped herself when Mariage took the lead. Go ahead, and your hand will call the Dies to the round table. And as she sat with her in a perfectly tidy seat of dominance, she took the tea utensil out of her hand and began to behave like a tea.

"I'm sure you'll like this sailing trip. It's quite comfortable to stay overnight on a ship."

"You were talking about docking in the lake.... How far is it from here?

Mariage asked Raina with a slightly stiff voice.

Mariage is not the one who is resistant to the rocking of vehicles. The boat is shaking. I guess I was anxious about the length of the voyage.

Sheila, get me a map.

Sheila, instructed by Rayna, spread a one-roll map on the tabletop. The terrain around Lugrois is depicted.

"Until this dotted line is the city of Lugrois. This blue line is the Lugrois."

The line showing the river was running in the middle east of Clan Hive.

"Ahead is the lake of destination, right? You'll be there by sundown. The flow is loose and the ship shakes less. It's a comfortable place to be if you drop off the rice balls."

"Does Lady Raina often take a boat?

Feeling used to Rayna's condition, which did not even make the ship shake, Die uttered the question.

"No. Not so much. Maybe when the customer came. I rarely actually ask you to sail and stay... this time, it's special"

Rayna leans over to Die and laughs, hehe.

"There's something you two need to see."

"Speaking of which... that's what you said this morning"

Die asked as she gently pulled herself away without weighing the meaning of Rayna's gaze.

"What the hell is there?

Raina put her jaw on it when she poked her elbows against the round table and put her hands together. She pulls up the edge of her sleek lips to laugh and puts on her little neck like a little bird.

"You two know about fairy light, don't you?

"Heh, fairy light?

Alvina, who overheard the interaction with Raina from the die, stopped the hand of work and said.

In one of the rooms, addressed as a refrain, two remain: Alvina, who works to adjust the ceremony, and Yuma, who takes a breath in the tea bowl. The die, one toe back from the deck of the building, nodded as he lowered his back to the recommended chair, yes, it was.

"You can see it here."

"I can't believe you see the fairy light..."

Yuma, who has finished pouring medicine hot tea, puts the tea bowl on the table to make her eyes shine.

"What shall I do? Sometimes."

"You've never seen either of them?

Alvina's mouthfeel didn't just say that the Dies reacted unexpectedly.

"Of course not. Do you have Alvey?

"Yep."

"I don't think there's one I've ever seen in a castle."

"... a fairy glowing thing that rare?

"At least it won't be seen in Del Ligueiria."

What the phosphorescent light, which is also seen when the magic is activated, naturally originated, is called fairy light. It is a rare phenomenon seen in the world.

The majority of the workers of the Royal Castle of Delligeria are occupied by those who have never even left the King's Capital, rather than abroad. There can't be an opportunity to encounter fairy light or something.

"Oh well, there are so few places to be seen..."

Alvina gets lonely with a blur.

"Well, there's no choice, is there? I don't know how to use big magic anymore."

"What does magic have to do with fairy glow?

"Yeah."

Alvina begins her commentary, first agreeing to Die's inquiry.

"Fairy glow, there are a few exceptions, but most of them are phenomena that can be seen on sites that use great sorcery. I hear the lake the boat is headed to is the source of the river, but maybe someone used to dig up the water there."

"Digging up water sources......? Did magic do that to you?

"Sometimes we even the land so that one could live easily, or we could pull a tributary of the river. It's hard for me to be alone, so lay a line for multiple people."

When Alvina rang her finger, she thought it would represent the magician, and a tiny shadow for the four floated in the universe. A circle of light is born to connect them, forming a circle. I went on to wonder if the fire column had risen at its core, and instantly disappeared with phosphorescence scattered.

"... and well, here's the thing"

Yuma starts to applaud the momentum well in the way she was impressed. Die was also tapped and slapped on his hand, but, I questioned.

"How can you use a big technique to see fairy light?

"Because an absurd technique disrupts the harmony of the demons on the spot. You deplete the amount of demons. Then the demon is pulled from somewhere else and moves vigorously to repair it. Like the wound scabs and thrives. Fairy Glow is the scab of the world."

"Huh. I see."

"Does that mean that when the demon's condition returns to normal, the fairy glows and becomes invisible?

"It's sloppy, Yuma. I wonder if that's going to happen."

"Alvey, how long has the fairy glow been what you see?

"Mm-hmm. Depending on the scale of the procedure, maybe a hundred or a thousand years."

"You can look at it for so long..."

"But you're telling me that the fairy light I'm going to see is also possibly unseen?

"I don't think so. Because it's not something that suddenly disappears. Little by little, the number of lights you see is decreasing. Something as deliberate as trying to show us. I think we'll still get a good look."

"Good......"

Yuma strokes her chest down. True, Die agreed. It would be just a shame if we didn't get here and get to see it.

"Oh, yeah, Die."

"Yes, sir? What is it?

Called by Alvina, who suddenly raised his face, Die took his mouth off the tea bowl.

"How long till the break is over? Maria...... are you going to be right back to Your Majesty?

"I was going to go as soon as I had this tea because there are some stops at the meeting, what's wrong?

"If there's going to be fairy light, I'm going to have to adjust the devil. Hmm. I don't know. I hope you're okay..."

Alvina looks sideways at the shelves on the wall. Die followed that gaze as well. On the shelf of its construction, a magician imitating the appearance of a bird was wearing a beak while it was authentic.

"Do you need to adjust?

"A fairy light can be seen, which means that the demon is dense. Because it might erupt a little..."

"Outburst"

Alvina laughs bitterly at the unintentionally rebellious die.

"Don't get me wrong. That the power of the technique will be strengthened. For example…"

Alvina suddenly raised her right index finger, creating a candle flaming light ahead of her.

"This light."

When Alvina separated the words, the light swelled to a great extent.

"Like it's going to be about this"

"I see."

When Alvina, who finished her explanation, waved her right hand gently, the light instantly disappeared without the remnants of the pieces.

Yuma exhales.

"Mr. Alvina is amazing..."

Yuma's praise is good. With the ease of chanting and breathing without anything in this way, there is no magician other than Alvina who exercises his technique.

Alvina smiled.

"Ugh. Thanks, Yuma"

"By the way, Alvey, how long does that adjustment take?

"It won't be that long. But it won't be over soon because we need to nuke it."

The devil is made in the nucleus of materials such as silver, crystals, or charismatic stones. The nucleus is engraved with a surgical formula that specifies the effect. The core of the Jade Demon the Die takes to the escort is a statue of a sterling silver bird, only about the size of a thumb, but a delightful number of surgical ceremonies, including the art of sleep, were written by Alvina.

"Bird, should I go?

"You can't do that. Ma, you'll be fine as it is. I'm just gonna let everyone sleep no matter what."

And to Alvina, who tells him brightly, Die grinned and moaned bitterly.

"I'd be in trouble if something happened..."

"Right."

"Hey, Die. It's getting dark outside, but I wonder how long His Majesty will be coming to the deck."

Yuma showed the window as she began to clear the tea vessel. A round window that should have brought light indoors is dyed dark at some point.

"You'd better have your jacket, wouldn't you? It gets cold when the sun goes down."

"If it's too cold, why don't we go on board? Or, Your Majesty, would you be chatting with that mayor the whole time? I'll do my best. Hey... are you okay?

"That's right..."

Die shrugged looking up at the ceiling to Alvina, who guided Mariage, who was not comfortable with Reina's words and actions.

"We talked soothingly until I dropped back, so I think it's okay.... Probably"
