1012 II100. Special story/trade prince gave it to me.

"... I'm nervous."

Haahh... he exhales and holds his chest down with one hand.

I kept breathing deeply, thinking it might have been a long time since I was so nervous. This is the last time I can get the tension out of my head, shaken by a carriage.

While my father smiled bitterly in front of me, I returned the smile with my eyebrows hanging. My father knows why I'm nervous. [M] My father may be as nervous as I am. [M]

When the carriage slowly slows down and finally stops in place, the door will be opened by the lord. I got off the carriage first and my father got off. [M] The guards will guide us as soon as they greet us.

To the Great Hall, the birthday venue of Pride.

"Happy birthday, Princess Pride One."

Congratulations from the bottom of my heart. My father was the first to say hello.

While staring at my father's back a little further away, I see an opportunity to greet Pride as well. I was with him a year ago. However, the relationship between Pride and me at that time was completely different. It's a little lonely, a lot more proud and happy than that.

I am the first heir to the throne, and Pride is not my fiancé, but my ally. Over the past year, that fact has been beautifully conveyed to the Kingdom of Freesia and to the Kingdom of Anemone.

Our people also admired pride in repeating regular visits to each other, and the people of the Kingdom of Freesia accepted me as her "ally". Everything is going really surprisingly well. Only a year ago, this time, I gave up being the first prince of the kingdom of Anemone in peace.

Pride, who had finished his greeting with his father, was still awake as he watched him speak to his next guest. It's a pride I've met several times at the ceremony, but I think it's really beautiful every time I see it.

Even now, the Second Prince of the Kingdom of Veronica, who speaks with her, is working hard to spin something on her. My cheeks naturally relaxed when I thought I might be trying to get along with her. I feel relieved every time I make sure her reputation as a woman is not damaged by my dissolution. [M] I'm sure it's only a matter of time before we find our next fiancé. I'm sure we'll find someone worthy of her.

They are not jealous of being asked honestly to love her, but there is no heat or cold. Because I can live with my more beloved country and people. I would like to learn the feeling of "jealousy", but unfortunately I am still far from it. It's just filled.

Prince Stale walks gently along the way to the pride of greeting and asking for love from several men.

Even though he is popular with his ladies, he has no regrets for his role as an assistant at that age. A word and a smile came back from Pride, who instructed the nearby maid to do something and then returned to greet the ladies as if nothing had happened. I'm sure he instructed me to replace the pride glass.

But he gave her a new glass and left before the maid could bring it. The pride of staring at Prime Minister Gilbert's back with his eyes rounded at the fact that only the glass had been replaced silently made Prince Stale sharpen his eyes for a moment. To Prime Minister Gilbert, who seems to be accustomed to even serving, I really think that all the upper echelons of the Freesian kingdom are excellent people. My country cannot afford to lose.

I gradually realized that the ladies were walking towards me, and I thought it was time to line up again for pride. [M] I want to say hello to Pride before I take the time to talk to them.

I am also glad to be able to appear in the name of the kingdom of Anemone in ceremonies outside the country, and I like to deepen relations with people outside the country. For Annemone, a trading country, increasing the number of counterparties in each country will also be beneficial for future trade. However, I still don't think I want to step in when I'm asked for love again like I used to.

Sometimes I don't want to make a fiancé before Pride, and once I found out about true love. But at the same time, I don't feel afraid of this feeling anymore. It's just love.

I think that they are purely happy now that they have the same feelings toward me as I live in the kingdom of Anemone and Pride.... at the same time, I feel really sorry for the women of the past. My brothers were the ones who spread the bad rumors, but I'm sure they were hurt too. Even now, if the people and pride of the kingdom of Anemone reject this feeling, my heart will be torn apart.

In the past year, I was able to apologize and greet them again at ceremonies and social events in Japan. Everyone responded with a smile at the end, but I'm glad I apologized again. I'm sure the same apology as me in the past means something different. [M] And....

"It's kind of... I can feel Leon much closer now than back then."

Yes, I remember the words of the lady who said them with her eyes closed.

She wanted to be engaged a few years ago, but now she has decided to have an affair with another man. I'm glad you forgave me, but I'm not a lover anymore. I'm glad you said I'm closer.

If I wanted you to celebrate at the wedding if it wasn't a nuisance, I was glad to let my eyes shine. I want to do whatever the First Prince's servant can to her, the Duke of our country. Attendance alone will make her wedding a good feat for the First Prince. I want you to be happy.

"Leon, thank you for coming. I'm so happy."

"Of course it's for your sake. Happy birthday, Pride."

Finally, I turn back to her flowery smile. [M]

I really want to talk about it as it is, but I will try to make it as short as possible. Other ceremonies would be nice, but our long talk at this birthday festival may still make sense. Even at my birthday earlier, Pride dared not to be long. [M] I think we should celebrate each other's birthdays slowly next year.

"I just heard from His Majesty the King... thank you very much. I'm so sorry that you took so much at once."

"That's not true. Because what you gave us is not comparable."

My father, my mother, and me. [M]

The festive gifts I received in Japan for Pride's birthday celebration were of a higher quality and quantity than usual this time. At the Royal Freesian Birthday Festival, we were doing quite well every time, but this time it was just the first year, so I kept it in mind. It certainly includes an apology and gratitude a year ago.

I'd really like to give it to you personally, but... we still can't forgive each other. We are good allies, but if we make a personal gift less than a year after the engagement is dissolved, it will be captured by the surroundings. Being an ally and being a representative of the country is unacceptable. Also, if there is a misunderstanding that it is reunification, it is then that we must make a distance between each other.

I think next year will be a time when there won't be a wave of waves, whether it's a personal gift or not... but I'm a little worried about what to do with it. Of course, I would like to give her a gift that is important to me. But I wonder if a gift from my ex-fiancé would upset pride. [M]

"Thank you very much. But this is the best gift I can get you laughing as prince of the kingdom of Anemone."

The words released immediately after shaking my neck made my cheeks unexpectedly hot.

She laughs like a flower and gets hot all over her chest. I don't think any gift will ever come true to her smile. To that extent, her smile is dazzling worth it.

"... yeah," replied the smile with love, and now Pride's face was also flushed. The round purple eyes are also lovely.

I realized that it was going to be over a little bit, but I talked more about it than I expected, so I went over it again with the greeting. Goodbye, Prince Stale went to speak to her again as she waved her hands small and flushed.

... I guess I don't need a personal gift.

More than that, I'm sure she'd rather have me as her undoubted ally. [M] It's much better than accidentally packing too much distance and intruding into the danger of being misunderstood around you.

After Prince Stale, I reconsidered as I watched the pride of laughing at the next guest.

……

"... that's what I thought..."

Haaa, and... I put a glass of wine on the table with one hand.

I'm not drunk. I've tried to get drunk, but I've never been drunk before. Even now, of course.

I am also impressed when I think it will be a year in two months after that. But now I just crush it to the table. [M] Then he finally opened his mouth from the opposite seat to an empty sigh.

"Hmm. If it's any more blurry, I'm going home."

"You've just arrived...."

I'm used to saying it, but I think you've endured it longer than I thought.

Val, who was coming to my room for a drink tonight, had just poured a bottle of wine into one hand. Even now, I'm still on my chair with my legs folded away from my body, and only my horizontal eyes are staring at me. Sefek and Chemet also looked at me with their unusual eyebrows raised while chewing on each candy. [M]

As I breathed more and more naturally in front of them, I still lifted my face up from the table with my arms down. [M] I repeat what was blurry when they first came to me.

"I didn't think I'd get a birthday celebration from Pride..."

Haaahh... you're exhaling the same breath.

As soon as I heard it twice, Val's tongue echoed even louder on the subject.

It's a strange thing, and even though she's not here, just using words makes her face hot as if she were drunk. I knew he would take care of me even if I talked to him like this, and I didn't want him to console me, but I wanted to try to keep up. I received a "personal" gift from my pride for my 19th birthday. [M]

"Because Leon isn't my ally?

I could only thank her for saying that and laughing like a flower at the end.

Of course, I'm glad. The Kingdom of Freesia gives me that kind of stuff every year, but it's the first time I've ever received it personally from Pride. The day I thought of the world on the boulder and received it was two days away from my birthday, and it was so delightful that my chest rang. I'm glad she chose and prepared for me, but the reason she gave me this is more than a gift.

However, it was a little confusing to me that I didn't have any personal gifts for her birthday last year. We are allies, of course, but we also have a strong public impression of our former fiancée. And yet, if you give it to each other, it's as if it's another intention. That's why I didn't even give it last year, but she gave it to me as if it were natural.

I said, "Are you sure? I asked honestly. And yet, she gave me Prince Stale and Tiara's name, just because I was an ally. I'm really, really happy, and I think it's better than anything I've ever been given, and it's warmer to the heart.

I thought it was slightly awkward.

"Even though I wanted to give it to you....."

With zero, I finally moan as little as possible.

I wonder in the corner of my head if this is the burnt liquor I hear about.

As soon as that happened, Val, who had been in a bad mood, said, "Ah?" and he threw a voice. After eating the dishes of confectionery, Sefek took more confectionery from the center of the table, and I saw Chemet's eyes turning towards me. [M] Not only Val, but also Chemet was listening to me. [M]

"? Aren't you in trouble for... giving back to the Lord?

He even talked to me.

Compared to the old days, I think there are more things you can do besides answer. If she raised her gaze, she wondered if Val was thinking the same thing.

"That's not true..." he says, reflecting on what he was misleading them. Lift your body off the table and hold the glass in your hand while poking only your cheek cane. Phew, after I exhale again, I will once again make this worthless body of my chest into words.

"Of course, I want to give Pride a gift for his birthday this year. But now... I've been given a head start."

"You're the first?

Huh? And Val stopped tilting his liquor.

I can tell just by the expression what you're saying.

Gifts don't win or lose. I know that too. However, in my case, I dared not give it to Pride last time. [M] That was because my relationship with her seemed a little complicated. [M]

Neither for me nor for Pride, definitely an "ally", could be seen by others as an ex-fiancé. So I put up with it. I don't think I'm still wrong about what I did a year ago.

In fact, Pride had no personal gift for my birthday last year. I didn't doubt that that was our correct answer. And yet, as soon as I opened it for more than a year, this is it. Certainly, as a matter of courtesy, a year is no longer rude or disgusting. But because of our position, I thought it would be annoying just to rumor about a personal gift from me, and I thought she would feel the same way about me.

I'm glad you're happy.

"Ugh... I wanted to give pride, too..."

Giggle. If you notice it, your fingers will force you to pick the glass.

I think it will be quite a pathetic voice for me. The muscles of the face are also under pressure. I'm sure when I look in the mirror it looks like a kid I saw in the castle.

If you think so, both of you will naturally lose sight of Val and Chemet as their eyes turn round. If I had been drunk, would I have been so ashamed of myself now? I know I should be ashamed to be depressed by something like this. It is wrong for the royal family to take the helm of the country to jerk off. And yet I still have to think about it.

I wish I'd been ahead of the curve in a year. [M]

The dissolution of her engagement with Pride is only ten days after her birthday.

Then I should have given it ten days after last year. If it had been given one year after we became allies, it would have been her birthday. That way I could give her a present last year. [M]

I wanted to give it to her if she wanted it to be good within her just for a year of solemnity. I wanted to give her the same joy she gave me for my birthday. [M] I wanted to trouble my head about what to give her to make her happy. I'm glad you were born, and I wanted to congratulate you not only as an anemone, but also as "me."

On his first birthday as an ally, he felt guilty as if he had pulled his hand off, and now he had scratches on his chest. I thought I was sincere with her at that time, but I didn't think I'd actually know it was at all on my birthday.

"I mean, what? Don't you care that Teme is left to the Lord?

You can have a different and enjoyable voice.

I can see a smile and a mean smile on me. [M] It seemed like a lie that I was tired of drinking in one hand, and now I'm standing over the table.

Besides, my eyebrows hang honestly from words that hurt a lot. At the next moment, hahahahahahaha!! And even laughed. "I thought it was my usual love," Val said, pouring the liquor straight out into her mouth. I rang my throat as I lifted the bottle, and then I slapped Tonton and the table with my fingers.

"A colored man captivated by women from all over the country, before the ex-fiancé who took care of him, what a joke? Leon"

"... we're allies now, Val."

"Oh no, publicly speaking, the dissolution of the engagement also comes from the Kingdom of Freesia, does that mainly mean that you've been" framed "? Whatever you do, don't let the Lord pull you around."

"That's right..."

His usual bad mouth is heavy now.

When I noticed it, it dripped heavily to my neck. I really think I'm just being drawn to pride. [M] In Hanazoo's defense, Prince Stale helped her, but she's always the one who can take our relationship one step further. Now, even though I am not my fiancé but an ally, I think it hurts a little as a man.... I never used to be depressed by this before.

Depressed by me, Val laughs all the way through and pulls out a new bottle of wine. At the end, I secretly think he is good at closing his wounds. It's such a relentless thing, but it's also an element that I wanted to be friends with.

"Hmm? What are you going to do, Prince Sama? Are you satisfied with just a sweet word again this year?

"No, I'll give it to you... next time, definitely"

"I'm telling you, at the moment, Teme is less than Kemet and Sefek."

KeraKera breathes unexpectedly into his words as she laughs.

When they had finished eating their confectionery, they had just begun to move on to their usual sofa as they turned their gaze from the table to Sefek and Chemet.

Val looks at their backs with a faint smile in my sight and looks back at the bottle again.

I know what he means, including. They've been close to Pride for a long time. I'm sure she has some kind of gift for her birthday.

Of course, they and I are not in the same position or situation. Still, the fact that the girl's Sefek was still young and still lagging behind the chemette of her little body was weighted straight into her head. When I think that I am immature compared to Kemet, who is still nine years old, my back becomes round.

As Val stared at Nianya to enjoy the change in my depressed expression, I noticed something else when I looked at her. Val's face, which was in a mood for my gaze, turned slightly suspicious. [M]

"So maybe you're giving something to Pride?

"Ah? Why should I give it to the Lord?

Val looks at me with his teeth peeling off, distorting his face to a moody color at once. I thought it might be a joint name with Chemet and the others, but apparently it's not the same way to put it.

Well, I wonder if it's like him, but I'm depressed again because I feel a little relieved somewhere in my heart. I knew it wasn't a win or loss, but now I feel like I'm the only one left behind.

Keh, throw up before you put the liquor in your mouth. Val lowers his voice and returns to me. [M]

"Two months before the Lord's birthday? It's amazing what Sama, the prince of the biggest trading nation, is going to give to a woman she loves."

"I'm more interested in what you give to Pride...."

Shortly afterwards, Val's face was clearly clasped.

Though I realized that I might have returned evil, I only now give it back with a smile and a shoulder clatter. I'm convinced that he won't give it to Pride because of him, but I don't think it's surprising that he did. He seems to be the one who doesn't share names with Chemet and Sefek.

I regained a little bit of feeling that I could only give back, and I once again corrected myself from the chair. [M]

"If it's a gift for pride, I already have a plan. A special rose is just about to bloom."

I'll drink the glass once I've said that.

Once again filling the wine with his own hand, he peered over the glass and looked at me with Val's cheek stick on his face. If I see you're still angry and you're not coming home, maybe you're a little worried.

I was hoping that Sefek and Chemet would enjoy the conversation, but when I looked at it, they both fell asleep. I think it was an opportunity to inflate the conversation, and I wish I had told this story a little earlier.

Blue roses.

The rose, which was so precious, was originally grown only marginally in the kingdom of Anemone.

Spills out of the country were also severely restricted, but there were many calls for them outside the country due to their characteristics and anecdotal effects. Recently, it has been successfully cultivated in large quantities and grown well. I would like to give pride to a commemorative rose that will be actively sold outside Japan.

Blue to red traits and anecdotes traced from them. And talking about the value in the market, Val got sick and tired on the way. I thought it was a fairly emotional love story, but it didn't seem to bother him.

"It's just a flower that changes color at the temperature, so I can tell you a lot about it. If that's a fabricated story, and you can sell even a small amount of money, then it's a shabby business."

"Isn't it a good example of how people find value in their history and content, rather than just looking at them?"

"Ha, that's a rich idea you can say if you can afford it."

Tell him to throw up and throw up again, he puts his mouth directly on the bottle and says.

Well, I'll give it back, but I don't know if I was born royal. Because he was not a nobleman or royalty, his ideas are always truly studied.

... I thought it meant nothing to the gift, but Pride was born royalty like me. Then I think it would be good with the same inertia as me. A bouquet of flowers decorating a beautiful woman is the royal road, whether it's a royal nobility or a gift.... or does that mean that the royal road generally doesn't taste good? I don't know if I've ever given a woman a personal gift.

Can't you? I thought a woman would be happy. I think I liked the pride because I knew flowers well... or maybe flowers for women?

"You know what? That kind of talk makes you a black-and-white prince or a knight more than me."

When anxiety breaks out, Val throws it away.

He emptied out more than half of the liquor he had left without saying that it was in the way of the liquor, and he took a new bottle again, saying, "Sweet talk doesn't suit his mouth."... I'm sure Prince Stale and Arthur are more familiar with pride. Prince Stale is Pride's brother-in-law, and Arthur has been a Knight Guard since before I met her.

I change my mind while returning a word of thanks to him for advising me on a good choice. [M] Let's just prepare the roses first, and keep a few other preparations on sight in parallel. Speaking of the opportunity to talk to Arthur and Stale without being noticed by Pride, the next ceremony... is Pride's birthday. It's getting close, but I can't help it. I think Arthur is easier to talk to than Prince Stale of the royal family, given his busy schedule.

"If it's a rose, how do you like it when you hand it over?

"Ah? I'm not interested. Get down on one knee and spit on Teme's" goddess "with the same dialogues as anecdotes."

I smiled back at him who was paying with his hand while raising one eyebrow.

Certainly a woman would be more pleased with a performance like that. Write down the anecdotes and the ecology of the flowers. "Don't ask me any more," Val replies with a heartfelt smile.

"Well, when you deliver the rose to Pride, please, Val."

"Ahhhhhh?!

Gachan!! and the next moment, the impact of the bottle falling and rolling turned into a fist and was knocked down on the table.

Thanks to keeping my glass safe, I never ran out of alcohol. Instead, Cefek and Chemet, who slept on the couch with too much noise, woke up.

"Why do I have to do it? I'll do it myself!!

"After the birthday festival, if I deliver such an anecdotal rose myself, it wouldn't be too meaningful. I just want to give it to you as an ally."

"Do you know that it would be nice to have a knight as a messenger at Teme's place?"

"It's a plant that takes a lot of time, so I'm most relieved to have it delivered to you. It's for nothing but pride, so I want to give it to you in beautiful condition."

Just afterwards, he raised his anger with a loud voice echoing through the room.

If you deliver it, the reward will play properly, and if you offer the terms, he will finally take his seat with the eagle grabbing the bottle that has just been opened.

I shouted at the two people who had just woken up and looked up at me with my teeth peeled out with my backpack. I don't think he looks too big if he stays seated.

I put the glass on my head and laughed at him as he was about to leave.

"Let's drink together on our birthday night. I'll get good wine and food, and some delicious sweets."

To be honest with you, Val walked off to the door with a big crotch squeaking on the floor.

She seems angry, but if she doesn't deny it, she will consider considering that she didn't tell me to change the gift from a rose. I'll ask you a few times when you come for a drink again.

Please remember to talk about the blue rose in detail again. It may be too late to explain just the details in the letter, and above all, Pride may be more surprised if he explains such a story in his mouth.

While considering the means of transport and the amount of roses that he would have transported if he hadn't come, I raised the contents of the glass across the window.

"Spit the same dialog as the anecdote on the goddess of Teme."

"... I don't think that's possible."

Remembering the words Val left behind earlier, he went nowhere and zeroed.

I can't imagine that he would do such a thing to Pride, but I can't do it anyway.

If it's true, I'd like to try what he says. Put one knee on her and give everything and beg for love. How loud this breast would be if I were to sing her such love as is told in stories and anecdotes. But...

"...... my life is with my sweet, sweet Anemone."

"Please take my life with you."

The cloudless moon and the glass were stacked, and the last time I drank it was dry. Cheers to the sky of the beloved kingdom of Anemone, and finish the night with a full breast.

I couldn't wait for my birthday after two months, but I fell asleep.
