Me and Francesca - and, rarely, Singh - joined together for a gentle tea party.
Francesca waved goodbye and I smiled back.
"Don't work too hard.Sometimes I come with Marianne to disturb you. "
"I'll be waiting."
"Next time, please have your favorite tea, Your Highness.I'll take the trendy confectionery downtown. "
"Yeah."
The Kintetsu Knight, who seems to have heard our conversation while opening the door, slightly smiles at the edge of his mouth.
I glanced at him and laughed with my eyes only.--He hung his head in a hurry.
Prince Singh, the Duchess will see you off.
"No, it's all right, Lord Roland.I want to talk to Miss Remilia a little bit, and I'll send her. "
"Then I need an escort....."
"I don't need it. I don't have any plans for this afternoon, and I'll do whatever you want."
The Knights of the Kintetsu, called Lord Roland, looked troubled, but he couldn't help but think for a long time and withdrew.
Though it seems as if Singh doesn't want to be escorted much, I lay my right hand on his right hand, which was offered to me or him.Singh escorted me very naturally without pulling my hand as hard as usual or making my face red.
"If you don't mind, can I take you to the Duke's Mansion?
"It's an honor." Prince Shin "
We smiled and got into the carriage together.Camila, the guard, is sitting next to me with her mouth shut as politely as usual and her eyes gently down.
I will go along and ask about Sin's recent business.
Ever since graduating from military school, Singh has shown his face at various ceremonies and has been heavily on official business.Without a step.
"I've heard a lot about Singh - you've been a lot more generous, haven't you?
"I don't want to increase your efforts....I'm not a child forever, and I'm patient. "
"I don't have an escort.
"When someone is by my side all day long, I still feel depressed...I'm sorry about the Knights. "
Looking out the window, I smiled at Shin with a bad look on his face.
"I don't want to get into trouble until the end of Francesca's Tachibana.I wish Shia had come and quietly admitted the franc and left soon..... "
Sin said bitterly.
Sin went to the Dragon clan with Yan.
Then she asked Shia to come to the ritual of Prince Tachibana in Francesca and dictated to her.Thin doesn't seem to like Shea very much.
I think part of the army feels disgusted.
Because they said, "Francesca cannot be king unless he is affirmed by the dragon clan."
I whispered a little.
"I'm really glad that Shea came to King's Landing, whatever she wanted."
"Well... I suppose that's because Yang said he was going.And, in a way, it's like Remilia's favor. "
"Am I?
"Yeah, it's like Remilia's got a point, right?That's why Yang is so interesting... well, no.I don't know what Yang is up to, and I'm worried that he wants to be called by King's Landing, but I'd like to thank him this time around. "
I nodded.
I wonder what to do with Yang's hospitality.I'm glad you're here, but I'm kind of worried about keeping my cheeks open.Stannis said, "Shall I keep watch?I was running for office, but I'd like to avoid that if possible.I don't think you realize that, but after meeting Yan, Stannis is pretty quiet.
I'm sure they're scraping my mental.
"Anyway, thank you very much for your help..."
"That's not a thank you.It is my duty as a subordinate, because it is true, but a royal stone system is indispensable for the safety of the Duke.It's for me. "
When I laughed like a prank, Sin smiled bitterly and nodded that she understood.
"If there's anything I can do to help, I will."
"Really? Then I'd like you to call Dr. Theseus.I don't think he's coming.Dr. Theseus is the most knowledgeable in the hospitality of the Dragon clan. "
"Theseus will never come to King's Landing, never.Yeah, I think I have faith.--Yes, but I had to hold the mirror the other day, so it might lead to it. "
Oh, that's good news.
I sent you a letter the other day but I was worried because I didn't hear back from you.Singh tells Camilla how to call Theseus's mirror.
"What will Remilia do when the ritual is over?Are you sure you want to join the Earl?
"Yeah, what should I do... I have a lot to do... but I don't know if it will come true, so please keep it a secret.In the meantime, I hope everyone can live in peace. "
Thinking about me, Sin smiled a little lonely.
"If you have any trouble, really tell me.I'll help you.I don't know if I can help. "
"... I'm counting on you."
Singh, who delivered me, did not stop by the Duke's rose garden today.
It's Sin's favorite place.I wanted to know why my expression was cloudy, but I didn't go after Sin because I cut up the conversation early and left.
... maybe I should write to Henrik, Isaac, Vincent.Because it would be easier to talk to them about their concerns than to talk to me.
◆ ◆ ◆
In conclusion, the water mirror did not lead to Dr. Theseus.
There seems to be a Theseus mirror on the other side, but Camilla said, "I can't come out..." It seems a little disappointed.
"I think I'm voice-telling you that I'm a Duchess maid... but maybe I'm disconnected from someone else."
"Really? Ah, it's difficult.That's possible. "
"Since Theseus is more of a royal family... is there a reason why you don't want to increase your personal relationship with the Duke...?
Camilla talks like she's afraid.
I don't know, suddenly you're not feeling that good while you've been exchanging letters with me for the last few years.
"Maybe it's a difficult time for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so why don't you be careful?
Well, that's probably true.
... maybe there's a reason you don't want to talk to Vaza right now?I can't help it, I'll write to you again. "
I wanted to ask you about the Dragon clan.
Ask Dominic Kirchner for that!
Now, I need a lot of other preparations.I switched, the producer... no, I went to Aunt Olga, who guided me, and I got on board with various consultations.
It is a secret that my aunt is missing and in the Duke's mansion.
Your husband Simon Burtley has no particular inquiry. [M]It's rather creepy.
"So, what did Remilia want to talk to me about?
"I'd like you to introduce the needles you have on your aunt.I have a dress I want you to wear.About twenty. "
My aunt tilted her neck when I asked.
"Do you change your dress every day while entertaining the Dragon Clan?
"No way! I'm not going to stand out."
When I revealed my plan, my aunt said, "Oh, that sounds interesting!"He put his finger on his chin.
Calling all the needles introduced by my aunt to the Mansion, they learned nothing and asked me nothing about my aunt's life or death."I don't accept anything but my aunt's request," so I kind of feel like I'm aware of it.
At the same time, I invited nearly twenty noble ladies to the Duke's house.
Some of Vaza's most distant daughters - and obviously some of the daughters of the royal house.Like me, they are the ladies who attend the dragon clan's retreat.
I was wondering what to do with the girls who were against me.
Francesca told me that I would take care of her, so I asked her to help me.
"Remilia, thank you so much for inviting me today."
"I'm glad to be able to visit the Duke's Mansion."
As expected, everyone is smiling at me.
I'm gonna lie down with Marianne. Are you okay?and nodded small when asked with a gaze.
With the rituals of Tachidao, let's get along. Fufu is said, but it seems like everyone is going to compete in luxurious dresses.Like the usual night club.
In front of Shea, who is prone to the confrontation of humans, even the young lady appears to be in small contact.... that's a little troublesome.
When the place to behave with tea and confectionery was warm for the fun conversations, I rose to my feet.
"That's why I'm here, and I'm inviting a special customer today.I want you to enjoy it. "
When I smile, the girls look at each other.
The confusion and expectation turned into a cheer close to screaming with the appearance of several beautiful men and women who emerged from the door.
"One of the Marquises of Steinburgh!!
"Ugh, singer!!There's a real singer!!
"What should I do!!This close!!
Yes, Aunt Olga's seat is still very popular in King's Landing.That is no exception when it comes to noble ladies.
When there is something I want to guess, it is equal to dust such as human ideology and beliefs...
Rather, the aristocratic lounge is far from the stage... it's not very close.I'm yaaah! He opened his cheeks and fans to the noisy girls without any allies or enemies.
For a few years in a row, I can keep a normal mind even in front of them.I can afford it.
"I'm glad you're happy.Everyone in this room is going to show you a piece of the play.Enjoy yourself.
When I looked at the singers, they smiled brightly and played a popular act in King's Landing.
The ladies who finished watching sighed as if they were dreamy without exception...
Good, everybody at Meehar!
While the ladies thanked me individually, I spat and fanned myself.I told Aunt Olga a hundred times yesterday, "No!The right hand has tenosynovitis.
Yeah, a woman who can afford to act isn't right!
"- I'm glad you're happy.Ladies and gentlemen, don't you think the costumes of the singers are lovely?
Heroin is wearing a nice grey dress.
But the gray color doesn't look plain because it's a beautiful shape with multiple layers of sleeves and gold threads embroidered firmly on the sleeves and hem!
Thanks to this show, embroidery was likely to become popular in this year's dress.
"There's nothing nice about it, Remilia.It's really beautiful when you look around!
My distant lady tends to murmur in her dreams.
"It's really nice! The Marquis de Steinberg has a collection of needles... because they don't provide costumes except for the Marquis and one seat..."
It was the Countess from the North who agreed.
I smiled at Ufufu.
Turning to the door, Marianne, who had disappeared from my neighborhood, came back.Grey gold embroidery - wearing her own design with embroidery that mimics her family crest.
"Well, well! Master Marianne, what happened to the costume?
…… It's so beautiful!!
With short hair gathering the girls' gaze, the tall Marianne put her hand on her hips and smiled and turned refreshed.
And cheers up.Uh, Marianne, that's not good.It's too much, isn't it? There's a lady coming out who's gonna open another door.I was even impressed.Beautiful as a model, my friend.
"There will be a day to welcome the dragon clan in the presence of a gentleman, right?I promised to wear this costume with Remilia that day.The Marquises of Steinburgh made me needles..... "
The girls looked at me and Marianne enviously.
I took the cup brought by the maid and slowly put on my mouth as I continued the wind, which was nothing.
"The Marquis of Steinburgh... I don't know where she is right now.Are the needles free while you're gone?They also said that they would listen to my (...) request to (...) go into my aunt's (...) mind, so I made them.But it's not all yours.
What does it mean to laugh like I'm proud of it?And a little girl asked me.
Good question, thank you very much.
"It would be inferior if a tiny person like me had the exact same design as Marianne.Did you change the length or the shape of your skirt?Ladies and gentlemen, would you like to see it?
On my signal, the maids carry dresses of the same taste and shape worn in Torso.
Marianne is a neat Mermaid-line dress, but it doesn't suit my height.Put the switch under the chest, not the waist, and tie the line with a beautiful ribbon from the West to hide it.
"The Ribbon came from the prince of the West."
"The beautiful Western Highness?Are you in favor of Mr. Remilia?
"It's beautiful, very beautiful."
I smiled at the winner.
Inside my brain, I had a conversation in a water mirror, and I said, "Hey!You need Western fabrics, how much will you buy them for?"I was thinking of the face of a prince who couldn't eat and smiled.
I don't know if you can give it to me for free...
I looked up at the girls looking at the dress enviously.
"Hey, why don't you all come and make a dress? - We are so close to welcoming the Dragon clan together.Right? Just the first day, in the same dress.We'll all get along and have our aunts make the needles. "
But...
"I'm ready..."
Some of them seem confused, but I folded them.
Trendy dresses, best needles.It's decided that everyone should wear it.
"Just the first day!Of course, I'll make your dress a gift from me.Let's celebrate our life together. - Of course, His Highness Francesca said it would be fine. "
The royal faction ladies nodded.
Some of the vazas are confused...
"Remilia, isn't dinner over yet?"
The ladies took a breath into the appearance of another intruder.
Henrik Valevski, Count Judal, who is using my mansion as a substitute for his parents' home, showed up at a time when he was aiming for it.Of course, I asked for your help.
Henrik coughed up cohon as he approached Marianne.
"This is - it's always so beautiful, Marianne.The costume! "
"Thank you very much!
I'm a little angry with the bar reading, Mr. Henrik... oh.
Henrik saw the ladies.
"Are you all wearing this dress?
Henrik asked strangely and cutely with his small head, and a few young ladies raised their voices and said, "Yes!"in reply.
Henrik laughed unusually pleasantly.
"That sounds like fun.- If I had the chance to escort, could I get a new dress?... now, if you'll excuse me.Please relax and enjoy. "
I gave Henrik a small applause for "Nice Assist ~", refreshing and refreshing in vain.Of course, Henrik's appearance was at my mercy.
Then I looked at the girls and smiled.
"Hey, everybody. Would you please listen to my selfishness?Shall I welcome the dragon clan in the dress with you?
The opposite voice did not rise.
Twenty clothes... from now on.I think I heard the designer groan, but I'm sorry, I'm really sorry.I'll play thank you, so please help me.
--That's why you're fishing in a dress.
I tried to create an opportunity to get along with the ladies.
You might get along if you wear the same clothes and behave the same way.I don't think my parents can't get along just because they're not close.
"Did it work?
Marianne hides her voice and asks me.
"Maybe! Marianne, that dress suits you too well.I'm on the stage right now.You want to be an actress?
"I can't! I'm such a phonetic idiot."
Somewhere in a stubborn tone, I shouted instead of acting.
It's like Marianne and I are getting along.--I think that kind of future is good for us.
While seeing girls my age mixed in with the Royal Vazas and flushing their cheeks with advice on dress customization to the needle group, I put my hands together in front of my chest with a feeling of prayer.
Three months before the dragon clan arrived.
I want to be ready.
◆ ◆ ◆
With the cooperation of my aunt and various people, the time passed quickly, and it was only a few days before the visit of the Dragon clan.
And for three months, unfortunately, Theseus didn't get a letter or a reply to the mirror.
