The Villain Daughter Enjoys Her Seventh Life as a Free-Spirited Bride (Hostage) in a Former Enemy Country

After finishing breakfast with Arnold in the cafeteria on the morning of the second day of his arrival at the Grand Shrine, Riesch dropped him off on official business before returning to his room.

There are many vials in the leather trunk case that was removed from under the bedding.Riesch carefully took out the three bottles.

The sparkling bottle expresses the pattern of the flowers by the glass tops.

After serving in a small bag and leaving the room in her hand, Riesch headed to the floor where Miriam's room was located.

In front of the door stands the Duke, Miriam's father.

Good morning, Mr. Jonal.

"This is Mr Riesch."

The Duke turned back to Riesch and bowed politely with his hand on his chest.

"I'm sorry, my daughter was still preparing.... I really appreciate your help in preparing for the festival.Even though Riesche-sama's own ritual is still in progress, she has no power as a father. "

"Don't worry about it. Besides, I made a big request from you."

"Please" is what you offered me last night through Arnold.The Duke immediately thought of it and smiled softly "ahh".

"There's no such thing as flying.I'm so glad to hear that. "

"I'm glad you're happy.This may surprise you..... "

When I was talking like that, I heard a stubborn voice across the door.

"... what are you and Richie talking about?"

"Nothing. Miriam, you're telling me to get out of here.I'm going to have to keep you waiting. "

……

The Duke sighed at Miriam, who was silent.

"Miriam, are you listening?That's why I told you to let the maid stay.It's going to take some time for you to feed yourself. "

"The dress was worn alone!... what's done is done properly... "

"Then come out as soon as possible.It's almost time for rehearsal. "

"Please wait, My Lord Jonal. Could you stay away from the door for a moment?"

Asked by the Duke to take his place, Riesch gently talks to Miriam.

"Miss Miriam... I thought you were taking care of your hair instead of changing your dress right now."



There were breathtaking signs.In view of the reaction, I am confident that it was expected.

(I knew it. - Thirteen reasons why young ladies rarely leave their rooms in the morning. In the morning of a humid day, you'll learn that fluffy hair is even more fluffy! )

Riesch tightened her expression and whispered to Miriam.

"If that's the case, please let me help you prepare.... if you don't mind, could you just let me in? "

……

After a lost tour, the door opened only slightly.The Duke who saw it called his daughter in a hurry.

Miriam!

"Daddy can't come this way!You're the only one who can enter the room! "

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jonal.Please respect the lady's cowardice and wait there for a while. "

"Nah, what a..."

Leaving behind the paranoid Duke, Riesch enters Miriam's room.

And there stood Miriam, half weeping, with her pale hair bloated into her cuff.

"Ri, Riesh-sama...."

You must have been struggling all along.The brush, tightened by a small hand, has purple hair tangled around it.

I must have felt painful trying to brush it by force.

"I don't know, I'm gonna be late for the festival prep.I don't want to show my shameful head to Daddy or the High Priest...! "

"Rest assured, I'll take care of it soon."

"But I've been working hard since I got up early.And I can't do it at all, so I can't make it...! "

There is a tray on the side table that seems to carry breakfast.The soup plate was empty, but more than half of the bread was left.

Perhaps he was struggling without eating properly.

(We need to finish immediately and have breakfast)

Riesch opens her bag and removes the three vials from it.

"Miriam, open the lid of this bottle and try to smell it."

"... the smell of flowers?"

"Yes, this bottle smells like lilies, and this blue bottle smells like orchids.This clear bottle is a lilac. "

Miriam sniffed into the vial Leescher showed her.

"... good smell. What is this?"

"Oil that can be used to care for hair.With this, you can hold your hair back. "

"Oil! But doesn't hair oil smell more habitual?Even though there are a lot of white colors, the contents of this bottle are transparent. "

"This is made from vegetable oil, and we don't use beast fat.Even if you use it for a long time, it doesn't smell bad, and it doesn't harden. "

When he left Garchain, Rieschett did everything he could.

Most of them were premised on meeting Miriam in this great temple.

In addition to the stuffed toys used for magic, they offer everything that Miriam loved in her maid's life, such as handmade hair oil and hand cream.

Each of the three hair oils selected from the trunk had the scent that Miriam had preferred in her previous life.

"Which, if any, do you like best?"

"I can't believe it's the best!I like all of them, but I wonder how Lilac feels right now. "

"Fufu. Now, let's give Lilac today.Please sit down here. "

Miriam sits in front of the mirror and puts the contents of the bottle into her palm.

Sweet but not too strong floral scent spreads softly.The oil stretched out in both hands is carefully matched to the inside of Miriam's hair.

"I've never seen hair oil like this before.Is it circulating in Garchain? "

"No, the eastern continent is mainly in circulation.I made this one because it's hard to get on this continent. "

"Made it!? by Mr. Riesch!?"

"Yes, as long as the ingredients are available, I'll show you how to make them again."

I finished wearing all the oil and received a brush from Miriam.

Combine tangled hair while soothing hair that has swelled with moisture.As she watched, Miriam sparkled.

"Wow... that was so blurry just now."

"We have plenty of time, so let's keep weaving.Can I leave it to you? "

"Yes, of course!"

Miriam glances through the mirror at Riesch as she flushes her cheeks.

"... it's kind of like when my mom made me do it."

It's just a little self-talk.

I'm sure Miriam had no intention of letting Riesch know.I knew that, so I just smiled and didn't reply.

Instead, he weaves beautiful colored hair and talks with little love.

"Speaking of which, how was yesterday's dress?"

"Well, don't wear it. I got it back right away!The measurements should be correct, and I didn't have much time to change. "

"Well, don't you think the balance between the hem and the sleeves is something you can't help but call it in?"

"'Cause you dye your dress.Even if you think of it as "this length for a white dress", it will definitely change if it's pink!In that case, you'd better finish up quickly.If you dye it beautifully and feel the balance is different, I'll adjust it on the spot! "

"Fufu, sure. Miriam is right."

While talking like that, Miriam looked out the window unexpectedly.

Leo walks through the courtyard as she follows his gaze.It wasn't the way to go to the woods, so I wonder if I'm working as a half-time user.

"Does Miriam ever talk to Leo over there?"

"I don't want to talk to her.'Cause you think I'm a child entirely. "

"... it's not true that Miriam is one year younger..."

"Oh, the age of the mind is determined not by the age of the living, but by the experience!"

Miriam sat on a chair and swayed her legs loosely, saying that she was an adult.

When I think of it, the expression clouds unexpectedly.Miriam lay her eyes down gently and murmured with a shrill voice.

"... I'm sure Daddy won't resist taking the kid from the orphanage."

The words echoed in sadness, and Rieschett cursed her neck.

"Leo, my dad brought me here all of a sudden as a cabin boy.In an orphanage run by the Order, priest Schneider asked me to "fight all the time."

"... that's right."

"You brought me home without consulting me, but my dad is terrible. Leo will be your playmate.And I want you to know that there are children in all kinds of situations in the world. "

……

I felt that Riesch understood the reason for Miriam's dissatisfaction.

"When I told this story to my maids, they said: Milord is terrible.If you're a friend, you have to be a girl at least. "In addition, "I want you to think about Miriam's feelings," or "How about having a puppy?"That's not it, I hate it.... "

"Because it seems that Leo's will was not taken into account?"



According to Riesch, Miriam rounded her eyes.

"No matter what the situation is, Leo should live as Leo.It's not for Miriam, it's not for the world.... and yet, you didn't like me caring about Miriam? "

"... so"

After a big blink, Miriam murmured.

Oh, yeah.

That's what I said, biting every word.

"I hated it so much.Why should Leo be taken back because he grew up in an orphanage?There might have been a reason for Leo to fight with other kids.But I didn't think my dad would have listened to Leo before he took it back. "

"I would also like to agree with Miriam's idea.--But you know there's something you couldn't do yourself? "

The end of Miriam's eyebrows dropped sharply.

"... you've just been mad at Dad for not explaining this feeling properly...?"

"Yes, Miriam didn't tell your father much yesterday or today.Why can't you tell me that Miriam has thoughts and circumstances, not just a whimsical self? "

……

"I wish you'd been so honest with me.There's a reason your father wouldn't do that. "

That said, Miriam clouded her face more and more.

(No, I don't think this is an atmosphere you can talk about.)

That's the look on your face.Experience in other lives makes it clear to Riesch.

That's why I gave up listening and took the lemon ribbon.

"Come on, Miriam. How about this?"

"Well, it's lovely...!"

After seeing Miriam in the mirror, Miriam leaked a pleasant voice.

Riesch finished the hairstyle with horizontal hair and circles at high positions on both sides, then fastened it at high positions.

Like a bear's ear, it's just rounded to the left and right.It was knitted three times as an end treatment and tied together with a ribbon at the back of the head.It's easy, but cute, and it suits Miriam well.

"What a lovely thing...!!"

(This hairstyle was your favorite when you were a little girl.)

Remember the past and smile.

As she grew up, she became less obsessed with the knot, but seemed to be very satisfied with her 10-year-old Miriam.

"Thank you, Mr. Riesch! That's enough practice!"

"Fufu, let's go.Can you greet your father in the hallway with a smile? "

"Oh, you can't do that!We need to make this hairstyle a proper, elegant and ladylike greeting! "

Miriam had a stretched face and ran towards the door.Richie also followed her and calculated the next move.

(We still have a lot to do.But we can't miss this opportunity.)
