-Miss Villain Warrant and His Excellency the Chancellor.

"To? Did the court call you?

As the season approached the summer - and the final test - I was somehow told that by my father at the dinner table.

"That's right. I don't know what the intention is. There are rumors that Chancellor Stéphane seems to be calling you, but the chief of staff is also involved. It might involve your engagement with His Highness Friedrich in a moment. It's rude."

"Er..."

Are you still motivated? Give me a break.

"It's not, uh, bye. Are you unhappy with His Highness Friedrich?"

"Yes."

"What?"

"It's not masculine."

"……… let's not ask"

Tell Slethott this is it! Your father needs to hear from his daughter for a second!

"You. I don't think it's a good idea to push Astrid forward even though he doesn't like it."

"But you're married to the royal family. It's a great honor. Besides, His Royal Highness Friedrich is the Crown Prince. You can be the queen of the future. I don't know why I refuse to do that."

"I didn't marry you because I could be the Duchess, Paul."

"It's, well..."

Mother, nice assist!

"Anyway, you were called by the court, so go. If you really don't like marriage, think about it. But you must never be rude because they are royal. You know what I mean?

"Well, about 50%."

"…… fully understand."

I don't like it! I don't deserve any respect -! Only blood muscles can say how much royalty! There's nothing more respectable about it, but I can't show respect!

"Then we're going to court tomorrow. I have work to do, so I shouldn't be with you, but there will be a call if you need anything. I believe you'd be okay if I wasn't called in."

"You better not believe it!

"……… I believe you."

If your father isn't with you, he's going to be impotent. Because I still have the urge to be impotent in these tense situations. Ugh, my sealed 120mm caliber rifle cannon nods......! etc.

"It really seems like the Chancellor's Stéphane has no disrespect either. I don't want them to wonder what kind of education you have at home."

"Yes."

Well, the Chancellor may be a respectable man, so I'll think about it.

But is the story really about Friedrich's engagement? I don't think it's any worse than that, but I don't have a bad feeling about it...

…………………

…………………

That's why I did it, court!

The maid told me to wait in the room, but it was a long time ago. It's already been half an hour. It is like a hospital where Grandma and Grandpa are included.

"Thank you for waiting."

Then another half an hour later, His Excellency the Chancellor finally arrived.

... with Beth.

Why is Beth here? Beth was also called as Friedrich's wife candidate?

"Well, Miss Astrid. It was nothing else I called you this time. I'd like you to be engaged to His Highness Friedrich. This is also a strong request from His Majesty the Emperor. It's about making Miss Astrid the Crown Princess."

"Yes, no, I was wondering if the Crown Princess could serve herself..."

I thought you were talking about your engagement to Friedrich. I want to get out of this fucking mess as soon as possible. I look fiercely disgusted and keep my rejection appealing.

"Does that mean you want to keep Mr. Astrid in as the Prussian Empire? What is the purpose of this? As I said earlier, Mr Astrid is a disaster. The Rosenkreutz Society is resolutely opposed to the state's mischievous use of its power."

Whoa? Beth will do the backup shooting. Thankyou, Beth!

"She is not the property of the Rosenkreutz Association. I am a member of the Prussian Empire. What would conflict with the law to help the nation with its value?

"Disaster destroys even the nation easily. You are well aware of the demise of that mighty Ostraich empire. It also means that it was Mr. Astrid who accomplished that. If so, you should be cautious about the operation of that power. From an ethical point of view."

Hmm? I thought it was Beth's backup shooting, but apparently it's a little different. Either that or Beth seems worried that my powers will belong to the Prussian Empire.

I want you to worry about me too...

"It is only ethical to have a foundation called the State. Without the state, there would be no law or order. It must be natural to do everything in your power to protect that nation."

"Do we really need the power of Mr. Astrid just to protect the nation? You think we're gonna use that power just to protect the nation? Aren't you coming to think about something else? That is what intervenes in the battle for the inheritance of the Melillarian Empire."

Huh? The Meliária Empire is contending over the right to inherit the throne? I thought the Empress had ruled for a long time, but I wonder if that Empress Ekacherina is old enough too...

"Of course you know that there is no such thing as pure defensive force. If you are dealing with Blood Magic, which is sometimes a medicine and sometimes a poison. It is difficult to limit the use of force."

"That's a trick. It should also be possible for exchangers to limit the use of power. There won't actually be an army going wild. Power can be limited. Mr. Astrid should be cautious because he is a force until he is called a disaster."

Wasn't Beth keeping Friedrich away from me? It's like an instruction manual for a disaster.

"It is wrong for a force in one country to try to take in Mr. Astrid in the first place. I disagree with the very fact that Mr. Astrid, designated a disaster, belongs to some sort of faction. You'd rather have Mr. Astrid as a human weapon than a Crown Princess, wouldn't you?

"I don't deny that in a way. If we do not keep in our own factions a presence that threatens the nation, it is certain to be dangerous. Miss Astrid can destroy even the Prussian Empire if she makes one mistake."

Yeah. Exactly when the time comes to break down, we're going to wage war against the Prussian Empire. That's why I think it's foolish to be Friedrich's daughter-in-law and increase the crisis of civil war extra.

"Now let's declare. Place Mr Astrid under the asylum of the Rosenkreutz Association. This measure will not be withdrawn until I, the senior law enforcement officer of the Rosenkreutz Association, deem it unnecessary or Mr. Astrid himself deems it unnecessary."

"That's it, or the Rosenkreutz Society. Then we have to revisit our relationship with the Rosenkreutz Society. The system of cooperation between the two organizations is over."

"Then let us cease our surveillance of the Witch Society within the Prussian Empire. Aren't you really looking forward to seeing what happens when those abominable witches are free?"

Fire powder is splashing between Beth and the Chancellor!

Awww. Is this going to be okay......

"Only the Rosenkreutz Society can contain the witches of the Witches Association. Do you still want to end the cooperation system?

"It would be the same as the Rosenkreutz Society to get the witches to start doing whatever they want"

"We'll keep a still until the Prussian Empire crumbles apart. Then we'll try to containment the witches. In cooperation with the new regime of understanding of the Prussian Empire,"

It's a complete fight. Should I stop...?

But I wonder if Beth has a verse that thinks of me, and if she keeps pushing it through, she wouldn't have had this conversation.

It's a fight, Beth! Get rid of the evil fringe!

"Hmm. Empires don't perish like witches."

"Oh. You just said you wanted to keep the witch in because she's dangerous. The witches of the Witches Association are dangerous witches who outnumber Mr. Astrid. Can you still assure me that the Empire will not perish?

Beth seems to dominate the fight. His Excellency the Chancellor shut up and just stared at Beth.

"Miss Astrid. Don't you really want to talk to His Highness Friedrich? [M] You are obliged to cooperate with the Empire whether you are married to His Highness Friedrich or not."

The spearhead of the attack is coming towards me!

But I have to be more forthright than Beth has sheltered me so far.

"Yeah. I don't want it. Because His Highness Friedrich deserves more. I cannot be the partner that His Highness Friedrich deserves. So I hope we didn't have this story"

"Are you sure that's okay?

"Yeah. That's really fine."

I nod and show it to His Excellency the Chancellor for confirmation.

I'm sorry about Friedrich. Elsa will take care of you. [M] Because she would kick Friedrich's ass good-bye and make him a fine emperor!

"His Excellency Chancellor Stéphane. I see His Highness Friedrich."

"Your Highness?

In such a situation, a woman official tells His Excellency the Prime Minister that Friedrich is here.

What are you doing here?

"Chancellor Stéphane. What are you doing?

"I'm just trying to wrap up His Highness's friendship. As desirable for the Empire."

Friedrich asks when he enters the room, and His Excellency the Chancellor stands up and tells him so.

"Is it desirable for the Empire to force Miss Astrid to be the Crown Princess? Though I don't think so."

"Your Highness. Miss Astrid is a very good magician. Besides that, I don't have any problems with the family. I wonder if Her Highness deserves more than she does."

"Is that to have her destroy some country again?

Mm-hmm. Friedrich is in the mood today.

Well, naturally. If the conversation was going on on on its own without my knowing it, you wouldn't like it. And Friedrich is already friends with you, Elsa. [M] Not if you're dealing with me.

"This bond is what His Majesty the Emperor wants, Your Highness."

"And this friendship is my friendship, not my father's. I prefer Miss Astrid. But I don't see you as a married man."

Well said, Friedrich! You're not what you are today! A real man!

"... Are you sure that's okay?

"That's okay. My marriage has already been decided."

Whoa! I wonder if I've just decided on Elsa for you.

"I'm guessing that's not the daughter of a civilian who's been rumored."

"I don't care if the person I married was a civilian. Even if we lose the right to inherit the throne."

No! Friedrich's showing the man! Come on! Seriously, come on!

"Your Highness. The royal marriage is politics. Please understand that properly. Your Majesty would have liked that."

"I'm sorry, Chancellor Stéphane. Politics is 50 years early for me."

Well, as an imperial duty, it would be best to marry a royal from another country or a leading nobleman in the country. Still, Elsa, you are the maid of the Duke of Franken's house, and as a result, nothing will go wrong!

"I think you're going to regret this. Sooner or later we didn't hold her back."

"She is an imperial subjects. Wouldn't that be enough?

His Excellency the Chancellor gave him a sinister look, but Friedrich told him so and returned it.

That's right! I'm not going to attack you unless you're aggressive!

"Well, thank you for your hard work today, Miss Astrid. Sooner or later."

"Yes, but I don't think so again"

I bowed my head and went out to open the door so His Excellency the Chancellor could leave.

"That was close, Mr. Astrid."

"Beth, if you were here, let me know beforehand. You surprised me because all of a sudden I started a fight with His Excellency the Chancellor!

That's what Beth tells me when she trivially leaves her room.

"It's to protect you. You wouldn't like to end your life as an imperial pawn, would you? The Rosenkreutz Society monitors dangerous magicians, but at the same time protects them from undue pressure."

"Still, I wish you'd said something."

But I'm glad Beth's here to help.

"But now you're not going to have a problem for the moment. Because Mr. Friedrich has shown his will. The perimeter will be pressured to retract, but then it will be when they are tried."

"Can Friedrich beat the external pressure properly?

That concludes my visit to the court.

I was a little impressed that Friedrich showed his manhood. The boulder is only the target of the game. You don't exist pointlessly. Good, good.

But this didn't make the decision to win or lose.

If Friedrich eventually loses to the pressure around him, I may be sacrificed, and this time in this matter His Majesty the Emperor may be distracted and try to destroy my house.

When that happens, it's war, after all!

"All right! Let's keep getting ready for war!

"How does that happen?

Beth watched me cool.
