Dropping off the Tiara Roses, Ferres stood up in the air.
"Aquasteed, can I talk to you for a second"
"Your Highness Ferres......?
Apparently moving out of the living room, Aquasteed wonders if wanting a drink was an excuse. but Ferres peeked back into the kitchen fumbling with the wine and raw ham Elliott had prepared.
- Was it true that you wanted a drink too?
Until then, it was an unstable ghost of power. It is also understandable that you want alcohol or something delicious. Aquasteed nodded honestly and followed Ferrez.
"This country still has beautiful stars."
"Right."
The place where Ferres moved was on the roof of the villa.
Sit on a loosely sloped roof painted in an eponymous color and place the plate careful not to fall. Aquasteed grabs the wine glass he's been given, and Ferres and I toast to the night sky.
"- Cheers. I didn't think there'd be a day like this where I could drink with my own kids."
"Neither did I expect a day to drink with the First King."
A glass of white wine is poured into the night sky.
Staring at it, Aquasteed quietly waits for Ferres to cut the story out. Please, talk to me, or I'll give you another order...
What the hell do you want to talk about until you pay Tiara Rose and Lilliage?
I guess Aquasteed's tension passed on to Ferres. Drink up the wine you were tasting all at once and Ferres laughs with pleasure.
"Don't be so vigilant, Aquasteed. I'm not gonna take it and eat it."
…………
"Maybe it's just a chat, huh?
"Impossible."
Against teasing Ferres, Aquasteed clearly denies the possibility.
"Damn, if it wasn't a little cuter, Tiara Rose would have captured my affection, wouldn't she?
"It's an extra favor..."
"Hehe. Well, I wanted to talk to you about your future."
Hitting and changing from earlier, the low, serious voice of Ferres clears into the clear night sky.
Aquasteed hacked into the word and pointed his equally serious eyes at Ferres. Crossing golden eyes, like stars.
- Not really, that doesn't sound like a good story.
With such anticipation, Aquasteed sipped wine and listened to the words just as Ferres did.
"It's time for the King of the Starry Skies to take turns"
"Changing kings?
"Oh.... me and yours, it's an alternative"
It feels like Ferres' words have heat, twitching and penetrating his body. Thin, it was something I was feeling, but I never thought I could tell it as a word so quickly and clearly.
On the palm of Aquasteed, from nervousness or sweat.
Seeing an aquasteed like that, Ferres tells him "it's okay".
"You will be able to use your power much better than I am."
"That's not true."
"This immense force, which could not be controlled by itself, became familiar to man in the long history of Marine Forest. Dark enough blood to flow in me won't be in Aquasteed anymore"
The blood of the royal family grew thinner and thinner from the second king, the son of Ferres, and a thousand and six hundred years had passed since his founding.
Even if Aquasteed is taking over Ferres' blood in color, he says it won't be enough to be out of control.
"His Highness Ferres. What happens to me when I become king"
"... it's a straight ball"
"Isn't that a problem you can get away with?
Will we come off the concept of human beings and continue to live all the time?
Or like Lilliage, will you even lose your human appearance?
What I want to hear is, it's like a mountain.
Hearing Aquasteed's words, Ferres conceives with his fingertips on his jaw.
"Honestly, I don't know what will happen to me either.... It's just a prediction, but Aquasteed and Tiara Rose will be able to use their powers without any problems. I just might run out of something called life expectancy"
"Life expectancy…"
"Otherwise, the King of the Starry Sky will be gone."
Hopefully the next king will show up soon, but that will be difficult, Ferres says.
I can't help but convince Aquasteed of that word. Because it's been over a thousand and six hundred years in Marine Forest until the second generation of Aquasteeds shows up.
- Built with the fairy kings, Marine Forest.
Fairy King of the Forest, Fairy King of the Sea, Fairy King of the Sky - and King of the Starry Sky. These four have been watching and supporting Marine Forest since its founding.
No way the king of the starry sky can pull out in Aquasteed's place. I have always wanted to support you as a royal fairy king.
But - it's not like I don't have a concern.
"I don't care what happens. But what makes Tiara unhappy..."
"Aquasteed"
Trying to convey it, Ferres' fingertips were stuck in front of Aquasteed's eyes. The fingertips slip straight into the lips, and Aquasteed mumbles.
"More than that, don't say it. You must not deny her resolve. Tiara Rose is a strong man prepared to be royal."
…………
Ferres is proud to have Tiara Rose as a member of the royal family.
And at the same time, I told him to look good, but he thinks that there has to be a woman in Aquasteed who will be there for me, too, so that I have to have Liliage.
Aquasteed and never denied Tiara Rose. Still, still, as my beloved wife - I wanted her to be happier than anyone else.
"Even I don't know how Aquasteed feels. But the relationship between you and Tiara Rose wouldn't be that easy to break off, would it?
"Of course."
Tiara Rose will support Aquasteed, who has become king, and will stay with us everywhere. I'm not nagging, I really think so, and I actually am.
Aquasteed takes a big, deep breath and calms his mind. And again, I see Ferres with a serious look.
Chuckling and laughing, Ferres started talking again.
◇ ◇ ◇
Tiara Rose puts Lilliage to bed with Filine.
A room reserved for Ferres and Lilliage, united by gentle young vegetable colours. The walls use wood as is, and the vases are lived with spring and summer flowers.
"You're sleeping well"
"Master Lilia has just begun her journey, and I'm sure she's getting tired."
"I'll get you some water."
"Yeah, please. Philine, take a rest when it's over."
"Yes."
Leave it to Filine, Tiara Rose leaves the room behind.
As I walked down the hall trying to get back to the room, I saw a pretty plate decorated with embossed flowers. It says' library 'there, which reminds me that it was recommended to Olivia when it came to it.
"I'm sure there must be valuable material..."
That's the book Olivia collected.
Tiara Rose, who was already trying to get some rest, stepped into the library thinking that I was really worried about her for just a little while...
The interior is about ten tatami, not very spacious. However, the bookshelves line up sloppily. In addition, a bookshelf is made in the form of an embedding on one side of the wall. Wood desk and chair next to a window with only one. I can imagine that there was a small lamp there and Olivia would have been reading.
"Wow, you're not sure which one to read."
Taking one book right at the entrance, it was a lapis lazuli history book. Right next to it is something of the same lineage, which can be found neatly organized by genre and country.
"I wonder what it is?
Slowly looking from the edge of the bookshelf, that was the lineup called Olivia. "About the Fairy," "World Map," "Royal History," etc.
When I was attracted to an interesting back cover, there was a book with nothing written on the back cover.
"What the...?
If you're curious and take it in your hand, the cover doesn't say anything. Turning the page with your neck tilted, a beautiful handwritten text catches your eye.
"Uh," Marine Forest Still Winning Places List, Suburban Flowers, Boulevards, Rumor Cafes "- said! This says something about the game!
As you go further through the content, the profile settings of the attacked audience. Things you like or don't like, personality or identity. Plus, politely, it even writes down the game settings and the impression when we actually meet.
"It's a tactical book made by Master Olivia! Awesome!!"
I didn't expect to see a handwritten offensive book.
"Interesting. It also says a lot about Marine Forest that I don't know about. Uh," Beginning Square "? Oh, speaking of which, it was in Lapis Lazuli, too."
Beginning Square refers to a square marked with the game logo 'Lapis Lazuli's Ring'.
Basically, that's where dating meets and important events happen. I'm impressed that Marine Forest had the same thing......
Not Olivia. Barely, Tiara Rose must also make time and make pilgrimages to the Holy Land! And I swear to my heart.
I became more and more obsessed as I was reading, and Tiara Rose kept reading strategy books all the time.
"- Ha!"
As a result, it was morning.
I blink a few times with my patsy, and I glance at the window. The morning sun was starting to rise and it turned out that the morning was already here. It's still early to wake up, but it's no different in the morning.
I can't believe I'm obsessed with books and staying up all night.
"Oh, what about Master Aqua?!?"
I was so worried about him for having a cold, I was obsessed with books and stayed up all night - I can't believe I could tell you. I rush back to my room, and, uh, speaking of which, I realize that nobody came looking for me.
Tilting his neck, Tiara Rose heads to the bedroom to which she was addressed. I don't care what Aquasteed would do if he was standing in the shape of a ghost, he roughly opens the door.
But there's nobody there.
If you touch the bedroom, there is no disturbance in the sheets, etc., and it stays cold.
"Didn't Master Aqua come back to his room overnight?
- Is something wrong?
Or did you get drunk and fall asleep in the living room?
Tiara Rose hurries downstairs, but there is no one in the living room. There are no glasses or anything like that, they are beautifully prepared.
"... Dear Aqua?
Driven by anxiety, Tiara Rose searches the villa for Aquasteed. But there is no aquasteed in any room. What I'm not looking for is a room where someone is resting. Or so I can't even look around there.
If you're looking for something else, it's the only way out. Even though I don't think so, it's possible that I'm watching a beautiful morning sun. That's what I thought, Tiara Rose went out the front door to the garden.
"Wow, beautiful..."
The trees lit up in the morning sun and had a view that you'd always want to see. Unexpectedly looking at me, I can hear "Tiara".
"! Master Aqua?
I'll turn around the voices, but there's no one there. No way? What do you think, "It's this way," he said from up there.
"Morning, Tiara. I think I've totally spoken to His Highness Ferres... sorry"
When I saw him, I saw Aquasteed and Ferres sitting side by side on the roof. When I see him smiling bitterly, I know that it would have been morning if I had spoken in and noticed.
But what the hell were we talking about all night?
Aquasteed and Ferres got off the roof and came under Tiara Rose.
"Come on, let's go back to your room"
"It's still a little early to wake up. I'll go back to Lilia, too."
"Yes. Um, Master Aqua, what..."
"You've totally spoken in. I mean, Tiara, why do you keep yesterday's dress?
"Huh? Ah... this is..."
Trying to ask me what I was talking about, Aquasteed whispers it up and confirms Tiara Rose's outfit. I've been reading books all night, so I can't even be dressed.
The chuckling aquasteed would definitely be angry. Next to it, Ferres looks at this one with a laugh of fun.
"Tiara's the one who's going to need to listen carefully to what she's been doing."
"... Yes"
To Aquasteed's words, Tiara Rose snorts. If I told him I'd been reading books all night, he'd definitely piss me off.
- But. Kind of, like, teased you?
What the hell were you two talking about with Ferres? It came from Aquasteed that I didn't want to say that, and it was Tiara Rose, who only gave up a little.
