Your Highness, the Voice of Your Heart is Leaking!

"... what are you so angry about"

"I'm not angry."

'Cause you got a fever? Or did you carry it to bed on your own, or...'

After Utaka, the two were driving their black horses for Versia again. Run around daytime hours, taking into account horse fatigue. Before sunset, he entered nearby villages and towns and rested his body in moderation.

There was just no more splendid accommodation than Utaka, but there were so many beautiful inns and they always arranged a room with two beds.

Tsitsy was nervous each time, but with the fatigue of the long journey and the burden of falling once, now Geisel's willingness to return to Versia was felt to be paramount, and he never ended up with her once.

As I spent a few days doing so, I began to see snowflakes on the surface. A few moments later, he runs his horse, and when the yang leans a lot, the city gate of Vercia finally shows up. Geisel slowed his feet down a little bit, reaching in front of the gates where the watchmen watched.

But a soldier stands up before the two men, who go down from the black horse and pull the reins.

"- Excuse me, is His Majesty Emperor Geisel"

At that time, Zizzy felt a tremendous fear.

I didn't hear a clear heart. But I guess my body reacted unconsciously to the disturbing emotions that soldiers have.

"... what are you talking about"

"- Excuse me,"

At that moment, Zizzy pulled the arm of Geisel, who was next door. Geisel pushes the steps she tries to take to Zizzy's sudden behavior. Then in front of Geisel, an earlier soldier was pointing his spear tip.

"Gyzel Versia, the rebel, is under orders to capture you."

Cutting the word off, the other soldiers put up spears at the same time. Geisel quickly takes Zizzy's arm and runs out toward downtown.

"Sire, what the hell is this?"

……

Geisel's expression was rugged, and Zizzy swallowed more words than that. Through the back alley, waiting for the soldiers to go too far. But the number of soldiers began to gradually increase, and from there and from here, a voice approached looking for them.

(What shall we do, stay like this...)

Kokuri and Tsitsy swallow their breath. Then from the corner of the back alley, one woman spoke to the two hiding themselves.

"Your Highness, are you hurt?"

"... Lizzie ⁉"

Reacting to Zizzy's voice, Geisel takes a position of aggressive shelter. But the woman called Lizzie is fine, and she pointed her flat palms at me to show that there was no weapon.

"I'm glad you're okay..."

"Lizzie, what the hell happened?

"… a predecessor in the royal palace has started a riot"

Geisel was quietly listening to the words.

"Repel and ostracize His Majesty Geisel...... and. All servants of the main residence have been given free time."

"Exclude Your Majesty… ⁉"

Maybe, and Zizzy blued.

"The fact that His Majesty came to pick me up caused...?

"-No. Originally, it was just the limit"

The footsteps of the soldiers increased even more. Lizzie softly leads her way out of the back when she puts her coat on Zizzy.

"Through here, you will exit beside the city gate. Get out of there."

Let's go, and Geisel pulls Zizzy's hand. Thanks to Lizzie as she walked away, and moved her mouth small, Zizzy ran desperately down the back road. As Lizzie said, the two men out by the gate hurriedly cross its back as they untie the black horse rope that was connected.

But I was unlucky, and one of the remaining soldiers found me.

"There he is!

Listening to the scream of a soldier stabbing him in the back, Geisel pushed his clap hard against the belly of the horse. The black horse rushes to his surprise and walks away from the city gate of Mirami.

Zizzy was only a little relieved by the sight, but soon found two or three horse rows coming after them.

"-"

Geisel also runs his horse diligently, but gradually his distance from me decreases. Eventually, when Geisel suddenly pulled the reins, the horse stood still with a high voice hissing.

I didn't notice in the snow pile, but the high cliffs are spreading in front of the two of us and we can't go any further. In the meantime, the soldiers creep from behind. One of the leading men yelled at Geisel.

"Master Geisel, with us..."

But Geisel, kicking his horse's belly hard again, started running straight towards the cliff. When I hold Zizzy's body hard to my surprise, I whisper in a low voice.

- Never let me go.

I wondered if I could hear the soldiers' upsetting voices in the distance, and the next moment Zizzy could see her body floating, hiccup. What continues to strike is fierce shaking and shock.

"- Huh!"

Geisel was running down the steep slopes of the cliff with his horse. Since it was almost at an angle close to falling, the momentum has not stopped and the maneuver is in an impossible state. My body leaned so hard that I didn't know which was up or down, and Zizzy, as she was told, just desperately cling to Geisel's body.

- Come on, step on the snow with the hooves.

A horse looking terribly tired was walking in the cold north in one or two unstoppable steps.

Around, conifers are forested, and that place, where the sun has completely fallen, has become a world of only white and black. The lights in the house are off, there's not even any sign of an animal.

Geisel was hazy conscious and swayed by his horse's back. In my arms the fainted zizzy is getting cold. I wanted to hug him, but I didn't even have that slight power left on my fingertips that were hit by the cold.

(...... zizzy......)

Eventually, Geisel slipped and fell to the ground holding Zizzy. On a bright white snow surface, black hair and coat spread.

On its cheeks, there were still large snowflakes.
