When Aquasteed and I went back to the bedroom, I felt relieved or yawned. Will I be scolded all night after this...... I thought so but I can gently stroke my head on Aquasteed.
"In the meantime, take a bath"
"Thank you"
Nodding at the careful words of Aquasteed, Tiara Rose took a slow bath.
There is warmth when it rises, and my neck moves at last. Aquasteed, who was up to use another bathroom, smiles bitterly and dries Tiara Rose's hair with the magic of the wind, which still contained water.
As it is, Tiara Rose is pulled away and put to sleep on the sleeping table. When I was gently whispered "good night" in my ear, my consciousness was already in my dreams -.
◇ ◇ ◇
The Tiara Roses woke up after noon and finished a light meal.
Biting down his sleepiness, Tiara Rose makes cakes in the kitchen with Lilliage. Since I've been up all night, a restraining order has been issued from Aquasteed for worrying about a cold.
Aquasteed said he would go out with Ferres on a horse inspection of the neighborhood.
When I tell Lilliage about last night, I laugh with pleasure.
"Ferres and Aquasteed were drinking on the roof?
"It is. I'm surprised..."
'Sure, it's unusual for royalty to drink outside. But Ferres has always been.'
Ferres has his majesty as king, but he also has a childlike side somewhere.
They tell me that I used to sit on the ground and drink with fairy kings. Sure, if it's around Keith, I don't think that looks very tight.
'I, too, was often swept away by his freedom to run. At first, I hated Ferres when he pushed me. "
"Push...?
'Yes. Ferres was royal, but he had a lot of brothers up there. I ran away to create a new country.'
…………
Hearing the words of Lilliage, Tiara Rose has her eyes dotted.
Indeed, Ferres was originally a royal of another country. I knew he founded Marine Forest with the Fairy King, but I don't even know Tiara Rose until the details.
"In the country where Ferres was born, there were no fairies. At first, the fairies wanted to see it, so they came to Marine Forest today. '
Ferres came to hear the rumor because Lilliage was liked by fairies more than anyone else. Then he lived in the village and Ferres became friends with the fairy.
Lilliage looking to have fun, but he tells me he hated rustling and Ferres. Compassionate from anywhere, but I guess we had a lot of difficulties until the two of us got married.
Tiara Rose also softly swears on her chest that Aquasteed and I will overcome any difficulties.
"Ah, Tiara! Isn't it time the cake was baked?
"Right, sounds good"
Lilliage moves her nose to the baked smell of the sponge drifting from the oven. It conveys that you shake your glossy tail to the left and right, and that it's more fun in action than words.
Tiara Rose squeezes the raw cream, and then Lilliage puts the chives on. It became very luxurious with a clay laid on one side.
As a final finish, put on the adorable decorative chocolate in the form of a liriage that Tiara Rose has secretly made.
'Wow, what is this! So cute!!'
"It's Master Lilliage. Chocolate can be melted and stiffened again if molded. Isn't she cute?"
'Ha!'
Lilliage is grinning when Ferres seems happy.
It is a tremendous pleasure for Tiara Rose to say that someone will be happy in Sweets. Laughing to be caught by Lilliage, he takes the cake he can to the living room.
I had Filine brew me some tea, and the Aquasteeds just got home.
"I'm home, Tiara"
"Welcome back, Master Aqua"
When I welcome Aquasteed, I can mouth him gently on the temples. Ferres was embarrassed because he was next door too, but I can't say anything because I'm happy. "Already......" he said, only a small disobedience, but Aquasteed is laughing.
Ferres, who saw it, also tried to mouth it on the cheek of Lilliage, who welcomed him as a loser...
"I'm home, Lilia"
'Welcome back. But you can't because you're embarrassed!
He was eating a cute meatball punch from shy liliage.
Tiara Rose keeps the two jackets, goes to the hanger and heads to the living room. Welcome is the cake we just finished.
"Speaking of which, you said you'd make a cake"
"Wow, that's a cake with Lilia on it"
Look at the cake on the table and praise Aquasteed for "it looks delicious". Ferres nailed it to the Lilliage chocolate I put on it.
The four of us have a delicious cake and each have a neat time talking about what happened today.
Ferres opens his mouth watching Lilliage cheek the cake with delight.
"You're here for Tiara Rose's cure. How many days are you staying?
"I have two weeks planned"
When Aquasteed answers the question, then Ferres looks at Tiara Rose and suggests.
"Right. If you like, I want Lilia to teach you some delicious food. I don't know, Tiara Rose."
"If you'll excuse me, I'll be happy"
'Are you sure!? Glad to hear it!
After being able to move around as a little monster, Lilliage is blind to delicious dishes. Among other things, I especially like sweets and would like Ferres to eat them alone one day.
I decided that Tiara Rose, who is good at cooking, could teach me, and my lily-age tail wobbles all over me.
- Now the sweets will spread again!
Aim, Marine Forest full of sweets.
From the next day, relax in the morning and make a lilyage and treat in the afternoon. I spent the night reading books in the library to the extent that I didn't fall asleep.
But the happy time didn't last that long.
After a quiet day for about a week, an early horse with urgent news rushed to the villa. When I heard what was going on, I heard that the king had fallen.
Currently Sotiris Marine Forest, King of Marine Forest. Aquasteed's father.
Let the knight who made the report out of breath rehydrate and get ready to go right back to the royal castle. Sooner or later, the Horse Knight doesn't seem to know the details, so we need to get home as soon as possible.
"How could His Majesty..."
'Tiara, me and Ferres are going back together.... I hope you're all right'
In Lilliage's eyes, tears come from worry. To her, Sotiris is her own descendant. One of those beings who loves you like a child. You can't be worried about Lilliage and Ferres.
◇ ◇ ◇
Back in the royal castle, there was no change from usual.
When the king falls, the upset runs, so I find myself keeping it a secret. Anxiously, Tiara Rose headed to the bedroom where Sotiris was resting, along with Aquasteed, Ferres and Lilliage.
I was surprised when the knight on watch saw Ferres and Lilliage, but he didn't do anything to say something in front of Aquasteed.
Sotiris slept in the back of the room, organized with green, light-water conditioning, on a sleeping table where the off-white lace was arranged to fold over. Next to it, Queen Lavina accompanies her worryingly.
A quick peek into the bedroom allowed me to see the weak but well-conscious Sotiris.
I'm relieved about that, but I can't stay alert until I know the details. My doctor explained to me before I came here, but I was told that my name was uncertain.
Fortunately, is there not a human out there who has had the same medical condition? Aquasteeds are given permission to visit because the infection is highly unlikely.
Sotiris wakes up, supported by Lavina, and sees the Tiara Roses.
"I'm sorry I said it was a trip."
"I don't mind. I'll be back for the trip."
"Your Majesty is safe and at ease. Rest now that I am perfectly well."
Tiara Rose stares at Sotiris wondering what the hell is wrong with her. Maybe it's not in this world, it's a disease in Japan...
Slightly skinny cheeks. Her complexion is not very good, and the neighborhood is formed under her eyes. When I listen to them, they say they have an appetite, but at night they get more fever, dizziness, and sloppiness.
- At all, I don't know what the disease is.
I've never heard of worsening symptoms at night. When Tiara Rose faints, the voice of Lilliage reaches her ear, 'Maybe...' from behind.
"That was... Tiara Rose's friend, Mr. Lilliage. Then you teamed up with King Fairy at the Sweet Games."
'Sotiris. Besides the explanations your doctor tells you, do you ever wake up all night long? Your body feels heavy like a stone and your breathing is shallow'
――
I guess there was something that came to mind in Lilliage's explanation of what he said. Sotiris opened his eyes only for a moment and breathed small.
It is clear from the state of Sotiris that it is true, but the Tiara Roses have not been briefed by their doctors. No, I guess I couldn't dare tell him because I didn't want him to worry.
Though it's a little awkward not to be told, it would be a consideration for Sotiris, who thought it would be a burden on Aquasteed up to his share of the work.
"Dear Lilliage, are you aware of this disease?
'... Yes. It's a very horrible disease. It is the initial symptoms that cannot be judged by their appearance. But gradually you start to feel your body as heavy as a stone, and you can't help but breathe with the feeling of being crushed'
"Right. But I've never heard of a disease like that before."
It's a ruthlessly dangerous disease, Lilliage told me.
Ferres, who was holding Lilliage, leaves her with Tiara Rose to go to the front of Sotiris. Slowly reach down to your throat and look terribly sad.
"It's a very rare disease. I can't believe there are such people in this day and age. It will be hard to breathe, breeze, bless this one."
"... Huh!
With the words of Ferres, a glimmer of wind overflows the room. That size is enough to show how much Ferres is loved by the fairies.
Sotiris breathed heavily, but in the next moment it seemed easier to breathe and his expression calmed down a little.
"Much easier. Thank you."
"It's superimposed"
Ferres lowers, confirming that he is feeling better, receives and hugs a liriage from Tiara Rose.
"Thank you, Ferres"
"Yeah. I could see your face and it's time for us to leave the room"
"Yes."
Staying too long would drain Sotiris' health. The Tiara Roses uttered words of sympathy and followed Sotiris' bedroom.
Sotiris, who dropped off the Tiara Roses, talks to Lavina, next door, without hiding his surprise at what happened.
"I never thought you could use the power of an empty fairy like that"
"Yeah. But I was relieved that Master Sotiris seemed to breathe easier. Who the hell is that?
…………
Remembering Ferres, who didn't name him, Lavina tilts her neck.
Seeing her like that, Sotiris gently lowered her mouth. Maybe you'll die like this - yes, because I thought you would. But what Ferres did to himself, what Lilliage knew about the disease.
Maybe we can still live.
"Nevertheless, I've never seen his face before."
"Oh, did he know?
"No. But... I only know the name from birth"
Sotiris did not miss hearing the name Ferres called by Lilliage. That name was the first name Sotiris remembered...
◇ ◇ ◇
"Lord Ferres, Master Lilliage, do you have any idea what your father's illness is?
"... because once upon a time I got the same disease"
"And Master Lilliage?
After Sotiris' bedroom, the Tiara Roses moved to the tea room.
Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. Ferres and Lilliage. Sitting on the couch facing each other, talking about what happened earlier.
Pay up, and Aquasteed confirms to Ferres and Lilliage what happened earlier. As far as Riliage speaking with a harsh look, I guess it's not an easy illness.
Aquasteed bites his lips and asks how to treat them. This is how Liliage lives, so I guess it's not a disease that never helps.
Instead of Lilliage, it was Ferres who answered the question.
"I know only one way to cure that disease"
"One?"
"Yes. The way I cured Lilia. Unfortunately, I ran out of hands, but there was no other way."
Look at Ferres shrugging his shoulders, and you can see that there really is no other way. If you had left it up to your doctor to explore ways to treat it, you would likely not be able to make it.
"And. The doctors told me it's unlimited, but it's not like it's not."
"! Then I have to tell my mother to leave immediately"
"Oh, I'm fine"
Surprised by Ferres' words, Aquasteed stands up to tell him right away but is controlled by the person of the day, not right away, so he doesn't have to rush.
"Aside from Lilia, there's something that died of that disease. That's on death, move. Is it a nearby person, a random person, or is there another law? I don't know about that, but when the pathologist dies, a new person falls ill"
"Are you unsure of the cause"
"Yes. It's a bad thing. So if you don't treat Sotiris, you're in big trouble. That's a good chance of getting sick to Tiara Rose."
Aquasteed trembles in a felicitous serious voice. Tiara Rose also held her mouth right next to her and breathed in its horror.
Aquasteed tries to hear that only one way, and he hacks.
"That way, maybe..."
"It's what Aquasteed imagined, no doubt about it. It's just not like we can get that right now."
Tiara Rose gets worried when she sees Aquasteed showing her troubled sleigh. There is some way, and I could have guessed in the current exchange that I could execute it to Aquasteed.
But I also feel at the same time that it must be a terribly tough thing to do.
- I support what Aqua has decided.
'It's okay, Tiara. Believe in the Ferres.'
"Dear Lilia! Yes, because I believe in Aqua."
Right, Lilliage jumped over the table and landed on Tiara Rose's lap. Lilliage's also stroked his mundane fluff and calmed his mind just a little.
From the mouthfeel of Ferres, it will probably take some time to get medication to cure Sotiris. Wishing there was something I could do to help, Tiara Rose watched over Aquasteed, who was seriously thinking about it.
