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

Epilogue

The summer sun pours into the room where the sea breeze swells the curtains.

Leechee sat Harriet down on the mirror and moved her armpit until she finished finishing and then removed the cloth.

How about that, Harriet?

It is the blonde hair that slips over the cloth.

The mirror in front of him reflected Harriet, who had shortened her long hair and had been cut to the shoulder.

"Thank you, Leechee-san...!"

"It suits you very well." The length of the shoulder is quick to dry, so it's ideal for reading while bathing. ”

Leechee praises Harriet as she wraps her eyes around the table.

"And a new makeup."

Harriet's short frontal hair had a different cosmetic on her eyes than the other day.

It was a shiny makeup look that greatly emphasized the hanging eyes that she cared about.The makeup I applied the other day for the first time was the opposite system, because it softened the hanging eyes and showed them close to the drooping eyes.

"Hmph, that's strange... even though it's makeup that emphasizes my hanging eyes, I don't really like it..."

"Yes, this is one of the effects of cosmetics."You can also "use" your face, rather than "hide" the parts you don't like. "

"I'll take advantage of the parts I don't like..."

Harriet repeated the words in a biting manner.

"Oh... that's right. You can't just hate what you don't like..."

Harriet looks at herself in the mirror with determination.

"Leechee-sama, I'll do my best...!!" My personality, which I hated, may also be useful for my country.I am timid, but I will use it to contribute to prudent national politics...! "

"Mr. Harriet..."

It's been two days since Harriet was captured.

The Knights of Fablania are captured and interrogated by the Knights of Arnold's Guards.Arnold talks with the Sigwell nation about the accusation of ransom money and the future of the Sigwell nation.

It is said that a letter has already been sent to Sigwell's country.Harriet's pen is also attached, and the real Curtis will come and talk to you in the future.

(I don't think Harriet is ever timid...)

It is not uncommon to be able to jump out in front of Arnold and declare that you are responsible for everything.Harriet has a lot of possibilities that she hasn't noticed yet.

“Lady Leechee, if Galkhain and the Sigwells form an alliance, the position of the Sigwells will change dramatically on the continent.”

Harriet's determined eyes looked at Leechee.

"That's why I decided to do my best...!"Not as a doll princess, but as a person with the power to think for themselves.I... I may not be able to do it, but I don't think I want to make the 'I may not be able to' reason why I'm not trying harder...! "

Harriet covered her face with her shy hands.Looking at it, Leechee smiles.

“I'll do my best to help you.... and of course, about keeping Harriet healthy. "

Harriet raised her face and took the vial from the mirror.

"I'm putting eye drops on my eyelids without a doubt...!"It seems like my heart's gone, and my dazzle has eased a little... "

"Yes, your eyebrows aren't as strong as they were a few days ago, right?"You seem to be aware of the blinks, and you will recover more and more from now on. "

"Wow..."

When I was talking about it, the sound of a knock came out.

“Lady Leechee, Your Highness Curtis wants to see you.”

Thank you, maid.

The maiden head who appeared slightly frowned at Harriet's figure.

Harriet looked frightened for a moment, but reconsidered herself and straightened her spine.The maid's headmaster, who saw it, mumbled to herself.

"... you are very beautiful, Your Highness Harriet."

"Ah, eh...!"

"Mr. Leechee, I will send it to you. Please come this way."

Leechee nodded and sent Harriet a gaze of 'later'.

After a smile, Harriet waved her hand and was beautiful.A short cut blonde hair and a summery white dress suited me well.

(Really good. The maid and Harriet will get along even better from now on.)

I stepped out into the hallway and went to Raul with the maid.However, the maid who remained silent for a while opened her mouth like this in the middle of the hallway.

"...... Your Highness's maid may resign."

Looking back in surprise, the maid continued to look as difficult as ever.

"When the Fabranian Knight tried to dissuade him, I couldn't help.I usually keep my mouth shut and scolding, but I can't protect you from the most important place..... "

"Oh, please wait, maid!"The maiden-in-law, without looking after herself, tried to protect Harriet with all her life.Mr. Harriet was very grateful for that, but.... "

“The only thing that matters is the outcome.”

She is tough not only on Harriet, but also on herself.Leechee lowered her eyebrows and at least tried to express her feelings.

“I think it will be very reassuring for Harriet to have someone on her side at all times.”

"...... but......"

"I found out that the maid was from Sigwell, not Fabrania, because the way Harriet was scolded was like a real mother."

When I told her so, the maiden's eyes widened.

Leechee smiled bitterly and asked the maid to do the same.

"Sure. I hope you can do a little more gentle scolding in the future..."

"... even if you continue to serve beside me."Maybe I don't have to scold you. ”

The maiden chief muttered and looked back at Harriet's room door.

His Highness Harriet's feline habits seemed to have recovered by now.

The maiden headed back towards us with a lonely, crisp smile.

Leechee smiled again, nodded, and then began to walk to Raul's room.



And in Raul's room, Leechee got confused.

"- Really, I've caused you a lot of trouble"

It was an unbelievable sight.

The head, who was always prone and rarely apologized, bowed his head deeply.

(Raul had such a strange face...!!)

I looked around without knowing what to do.However, the maid was separated in the hallway, and only Leechee and Raul were here.

Now Raul doesn't look like Curtis.I heard that the "shadow" would continue until the real Curtis arrived, but Curtis himself seems to be locked in the room for a while, so I don't think there will be any problem with this figure.

"Hey, Raul, don't apologize."There's nothing wrong I've done to you. "

"... have you suffered any damage?" Are you serious about that? "

"Seriously, nothing is true."

…………

Then Raul narrowed his eyes and said this.

"I guess that Crown Prince Sama is struggling with medicine." sympathetic.... "

(Why are you here talking about Lord Arnold...!?)

I didn't know, but I don't think I should listen to it out loud.Raul shrugged his shoulders as Leeche squeezed her mouth.

"That said, I can't afford to be spoiled."I'll repay you for the trouble you've caused me. "

That sounds familiar to Leeche.

At the beginning of her fifth life, Leechee had the event of helping a man in the forest.I used my knowledge as a pharmacist to heal his injuries and take him to a place where he was loitering.

The injured person was Raul.

Thinking now, it is unusual for him to be so seriously injured.Perhaps it was because of the impatience that there was no way to save Harriet.

Raul, who had recovered, told Leechee, who had not yet decided on a career in his new life, that he would "repay his gratitude for the trouble he had caused".This is what Leechee replied.

”... then teach me how to use the bow too.”

A bow? - What are you going to do when a girl like you remembers something like that?

There's no purpose in what you do.I just want to learn something new. ”

When Raul looks up with great excitement at what knowledge and skills he can gain, he remembers that he laughed happily.

“Now, what do you want from me?”

Leechee glanced straight at Raul's red eyes.

If you can do me a favor, I'd like you to rely on more of my people.

"...... is......"

Raul glanced at us.

"That's what people used to teach me about bows."I carried something on my own, laughed and lied all the time... I could see it, but it looked like a ghost without substance. "

Raul, in the life of the hunter, laughed, "It's not like that."However, if it's Raul in front of us now, it may be more than it was then.

"Don't carry something on your own like this."... a happy face, a sad face, and a lot of people around you. "

"... me?"

"Yes, my benefactor didn't know until the end."

I think Raul died in the woods where Leechee died.

Galkhain attacked, burned down, and even the trees where the huntsman hid.Raul, who sheltered his people and fought for the Knights, was more damaged than Leeche.

"If you will listen to my request, please spend the rest of your life like that."--Tell me what you think you're happy about and what makes you happy with your real smile. "

……

Raul looked at the leeches in front of him and looked at the distance.

”... oh, that's nice.”

And then, the exact same dialogue that I told Leeche the other day.

"I want to be my wife, not my crown prince."

"No. You don't need that kind of joke anymore, do you?"

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.You're going to be the daughter-in-law of Arnold Hein. "



It's true, but I'm strangely embarrassed to be told again.Raul exhaled as Leechee squinted.

"Your marriage is a political marriage."...... even if the dowry destination is Galkhain..... "

"...... Raul?"

Raul had a soft smile on his face.

“I hope you're happy.”

"-Yeah, leave it to me!"

So Leechee left his room behind.



Then, while Leechee was preparing herself in various ways, the time passed surprisingly quickly.

At dusk, the sandy beach echoes the soft sound of the waves.Looking at the face of the pocket watch, Leechee took a big deep breath and thought to herself.

(...... ten minutes until the appointment......)

I wonder if I can calm down enough, but such expectations are shattered.The waiter called out to Leechee, who was crouched on the beach.

"Leeche"

Leechee suddenly stood up and looked back at the castle in a hurry.

"Your Highness Arnold...!"

Arnold walks along the sunset sand.Whether the sun was dazzling or not, he winked slightly.

"Oliver told me you were calling me."... what's going on? "

"... I wanted to talk to His Highness, and I talked to Master Oliver about it."

Leechee rushed in front of Arnold, breathing straight and then looking up at him.

"I wanted to make up for the quarrel between the couple..."
