The Unbound World’s “Normal” is Difficult

"Yes, so here's where we are today."

As Felix's breathtaking voice signalled, the ladies who stepped out of the carriage stretched their faces against the puncture cold and the sight in front of them.

Selection meeting, morning of day two.

It was shaken for hours by a carriage in a border village in northern Rouden. It was a nursing home located even further away.

"What are you doing here..."

"I've never seen anything like it...."

"It stinks so bad..."

A strawberry roof that is about to fall. Rotten pillars, holed walls.

Small windows are covered with cloth instead of glass, and unprotected odours can come from the inside to the surroundings.

The candidates, the majority of whom were boxed ladies of nobility, looked pale for the first time in the harsh environment they saw.

"If you're a queen, why don't you just drink tea from behind the castle every day? You must not only face the ugly reality, but also deal with it. That's why I want to see how prepared everyone is today."

If you dare to translate what was said in a prolonged voice, here's how.

Deal with the ugly reality - that is, take appropriate action against the people in this nursing home.

I don't suppose that saying "not only face to face," doesn't require any kind of response, such as simply watching or warm words of encouragement.

For example, taking care of this dirty patient or repairing a nursing home crawling with insects. Felix wants these realistic and concrete actions.

There are already only ten candidates left.

Everyone is good enough to understand such intentions. And for that reason, I was bluishing before the reality that I was trying to be strong.

"Your Majesty's got a pretty tough question for you, too. Though you're right, noble daughters don't need this smell anymore. It's bad for the people who actually live here... but don't you think it's a really unbearable odor?

Not as an audience this time, but as one of the maids from the royal palace, Irene whispers to Deborah, who likewise stops to the side.

But...

"Eh? Just because Elmael-sama is in the same vision, the world is shining and fragrant, but what is it?"

"Your brain complementation is too high!"

I was betrayed lightly and unexpectedly fell into it.

But because of the cold, Deborah nodded with a full breast.

"The point is, as Your Majesty says, it's a matter of readiness. If you destroy your mind, so will the fire, Elma. If you come up with the will, the bad environment is no problematic. I saw a few women with that kind of backbone."

I don't think so, but when Deborah points her finger at it, there are indeed several candidates staring at the nursing home with their backs stretched out.

Elma raised in jail, of course.

In addition, the daughter of a merchant who seems to be somewhat immune from downtown, and, surprisingly, the Countess' daughter, Caroline.

Once upon a time, Elma beat me at a ball and I was a dancing bragging girl.

She didn't hear much of a good reputation as usual, but she was stuck here thinking she didn't want to lose to Elma anyway.

The guts should be praised.

(And the other one....)

Irene then discovered another candidate who was not upset by the sight in front of her.

Anastasia Don Rodrigo.

After breaking through yesterday's first match with a full score, she stood there somehow out of the blue.

Without wearing his neck against the blowing cold wind, he stood as if he were enjoying the coolness.

Well, you have a lot of mental power.

Irene stared at Anna with a suspicious face, but in fact, her mental state was slightly different from "extraordinary."

(The morning... came...)

Anna remembered her agitated emotion that she had survived her incredible training again today and that it was so early in the morning.

(I thought I was going to die... I thought he died about three times....)

In retrospect, it was past noon yesterday. Anna, who was forced to dance the "Dance of God" - admired by her surroundings - naturally protested suddenly to Elma.

But where did the Elma blow?

Rather, it is a state of confusion that is purely neat and "I don't know why I can be blamed".

Throwing a cotton swab into the wall, or making people dance beyond the limits of the human body, was an attitude that she just said was "even normal".

Anna scolded Elma as far as the vocabulary was concerned.

But no matter how dirty you curse, Elma's expression doesn't shake a single grain of wheat.

On the contrary, it is diligence that tries to cultivate idioms, foreign languages, and history using the rumors as the thread.

When I resisted, I tried to inject a suspicious drug that activated the brain.

After being strangled with wings, Anna screamed there.

Jesus, no kidding! That kind of stuffed education is going to work! If you're educated like that, your brother's future is dark!

I should have understood instinctively that it was better not to talk about Balt.

But at that time, it was precisely instinct that inspired them to escape hardship.

And the effect was "Tempen".

The future of Baltan... is dark...?

Elma lost her complexion and trembled her lips.

She collapsed on the spot with a pathetic momentum to watch, and looked up at Anna as if she trusted her.

Please tell me, Ana-sama. What's wrong with my education policy? I... ah, what do I do...? "

"Ma... well, calm down."

Don't pull it like a leopard.

At the same time, however, Anna quickly made up her mind.

This is a chance.

If you convince your opponent that you are superior here now, you will be released from this crazy "training".

No, otherwise I won't be able to hold myself.

So Anna pretended to be flat and said confidently.

"First and foremost, it's important to value the other person's autonomy. Don't force them to hate you. That's the basics. Do you understand?

Yes......

Create a confident look.

Be aware of the angle of your eyebrows, the position of your gaze, and the very fine movement of your circle muscles.

This is the first time I have been able to perfectly practice Elma's micro-expression skills.

In danger of life, I feel my strength is rising more and more, whether it's happiness or misfortune.

However, Anna added an extra word in search of a complete advantage.

Well, if you listen to me, it's okay. Anyway, when I was in the village, I was at the top of my six brothers and sisters. Kids of all ages know the tricks. I'll tell you from scratch. "

Ana-sama......!

Elma shook herself with joy - where she suddenly became suspicious of the clouds.

Are you sure you want to beg for full teaching!?

Ah, I won't say a word to a woman.

"Not only about spiritual education policy, but also about the specific methods that occur in the childcare scene...!?

Oh, I've got diapers, bedding, baby signs, everything.

Ana-sama......! Now, please change your diapers and knock 100 diapers!

"Ahh... ahh?

Anna raised her eyebrows unexpectedly to a word unfamiliar to her ears.

A hundred knocks? Changing diapers?

However, while she was confused, Elma quickly set up the area around the crib and changed her Baltic diapers.

Whether the wind that winds up is pleasant or not, the baby laughs while sleeping.

In this way, my diaper changing skills are still...

No!? I only saw the remnants!?

No, now you're still going to notice that Baltan has changed the diapers. The truth is, I'd like to change this adorable sleeping face even more subtly... "

Apparently, Elma's goals are much higher than average.

Losing her words, Elma rushed into the diaper.

Now, please, Anna-sama. Please give me a lesson. For Baltan's sake, even if this muscle can play and my skin burns out, there's no regret. "

What kind of training are you planning to do with changing your diapers!?

In fact, Anna's muscles bounced and her skin was about to burn out, causing her to get caught up in diaper changing training.

(In the middle of the way, I said, "I have to be able to handle all kinds of conditions of stools", and then I stormed over there. If I thought, I would start the development of a highly water-absorbing polymer (polymer) from the material collection and stay up all night, and it would have a dust on my sleeping clothes....)

Moreover, she has not forgotten the recognition that it is time for queen education, and she implements all kinds of knowledge in Anna, as she remembers from time to time.

"Hey... wait, please stop...! This is absolutely unnecessary knowledge for the Queen's Selection Board...."

"Again, Rouden is the continent's largest country, and its queen is the continent's greatest woman. There can't be any areas that the woman doesn't know about."

Even as Anna screams, Elma is only smiling forward with her training.

Finally, "I can't do it anymore! 'I'm at my limit!' Elma leaned strangely, telling him.

"Eh....? At this level....? No way. Was Anna prepared and prepared to make such a noise, even though she wanted to assassinate His Majesty with the fate of Espiana...?

............

If it had been a disgusting tone, how good would it have been?

The deeply suspicious, rather upsetting, murmur drowned in Anna's self-esteem.

(I was the best adopted daughter and the best assassin that Rodrigo raised....!

In return for her gratitude to the Marquis, she came all the way here with a bloody effort.

It's not just an insult to Anna that makes a fool of her, it's a fool of the Marquis de Rodrigo who raised her.

Anna shouted back at the Marquis's depth of affection and her loyalty to him, seemingly denied together.

"Ahhhhhhhh!? Not at all. The training I received in Master Rodrigo's mansion was stricter than anything else. I can still afford it!

Oh, good. That's Ana-sama. The guts you were born with and forged out are very different. Now let's pace up a bit with peace of mind.

Eh

I said it was cool.

Now I regret it.

After all, it was the trigger, and Anna was three times faster from there, so she got caught up in diaper development and queen education.

Compared to that nightmarish time, the nursing home in front of me is cute.

Perfect for bringing your blurry senses back to life, whether it's bad smells or cold air that sting your skin.

One of the knights looked suspiciously at himself standing in a state of selflessness, but it was no longer easy to play a poor girl before that.

I mean, even though this is supposed to be an important task, it doesn't matter how fiercely this selection board itself is now.

Okay, then, let's begin the review ~

So when Anna heard Felix's words, she slowly moved her gaze - she just instinctively started moving against what appeared in her vision.
