23 8. Forced Events for Sequel Games

Beautifully furnished rooms feature calm lights.

After placing the paperwork on his desk, Aquasteed confirms Elliot's plans for tomorrow - but he glances at Elliot before doing so.

"Don't try to clean it up on your own"

"Do you still eat it? Well, fine..."

Elliot, a squire, looks at Aquasteed sitting on the couch as if he was frightened. "Eat," Aquasteed replied, a nut cake made by Tiara Rose during the day.

Aquasteed that doesn't usually eat very sweet things, but if it's that my dear Tiara Rose made it, the story is different.

If you use a fork and take a bite, your face will melt "delicious".

"Totally. Then soon enough I'll have something to say that Dear Tiara Rose's cake was delicious."

"... you. Miss Isira's mood needs to be kept in good shape. Even more so when you're in the castle."

"That's true, though."

Elliot understands, but she can't help but worry about the anxious eyes Tiara Rose sometimes shows.

And Isira's mood is heavily related to the existence of a fairy. Isira, much loved by the sea fairies, whose emotions are transmitted directly to the fairies.

When Isira gets grumpy, the spirits of the sea also get rough. Happiness, on the contrary, will bring grace to the sea, and the country will be greatly enriched.

That's what the sea fairy loves and is the heroine icilla of the sequel -.

"Ahhh! Nice guy stills dripping water too!!"

Tiara Rose, who shouted her bedtime words, accidentally opened her eyes and jumped up. The time is still midnight, the darkness of the night when the morning sun does not rise.

just woke my body up because I remembered the fact that I had completely forgotten.

- Nice guy Still dripping water too.

This is the only sample stills released shortly before Tiara Rose died in her previous life.

It's an event where Isira and Aquasteed are walking by the sea, and Aquasteed, sheltering Isira who was about to fall, falls to the sea and flashes the water.

I recall it being written as "a good man who drips water too".

"How could I have forgotten the existence of such a lovely still... Dear Aqua, you look great."

I only wake my body out of bed and breathe "ho..."

Recall the stills inadvertently and at the same time remember the usual aquasteeds. Always spoiling Tiara Rose gently, he's such a good-looking man to himself.

"I wonder when the event is. It should happen when you go to the beach..."

Tiara Rose doesn't know what time that event will happen because Still was just released.

But so far, there are no plans to go to sea on Aquasteed's official business. And while I'm relieved, I wonder what about private people.

Aquasteed, who works like every day, doesn't have that many days off. Plus, if you have time, you always come to Tiara Rose.

Because I'm free, it's hard to imagine Aquasteed going to the sea without telling Tiara Rose anything. No, it can't be.

"In the meantime, let's keep track of our plans"

If there's anything like going to the ocean, I'll do everything I can to stop it. If it's official business that I can't take off, I think I need to do enough to stop Isira at all...

But the other Isira is the Duke's Lady of this country. Though he gave Lapis, Tiara Rose is a marquise of another country. It would be hard to get out strong.

"... worst of all, let me go about absolutely"

- I can't leave Isira and Aqua alone by the sea!

That is absolutely all.

Now, with the intention of working absolutely hard, Tiara Rose dived into bed to sleep again without excitement and cold.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Huh?"

"Yeah? We're going to inspect Miss Isira's sea."

At midnight, what Tiara Rose feared... was just about to become a reality thing now.

What the hell is wrong with you when you say you have never talked about that before? When I asked Aquasteed why I was anxious, he said, "They've created a new species of coral."

The sea of Isira, loved by sea fairies, is home to many colorful corals and fish.

As Aquasteed speaks, new species of fish and corals are also born for a certain period of time. It's too convincing a reason, but still makes me think Tiara Rose doesn't want me to go.

I don't want Isira to see a nice guy dripping water. He wants to be alone - that's what he wants.

"What's wrong with you?

……

Worried about Tiara Rose, who stood still, Aquasteed slowly let her sit on the couch.

At present, there is only Tiara Rose in his office. For this reason, Aquasteed is in a good mood to be able to spoil the Tiara Rose in full.

But if you look at the look on Tiara Rose's face that got cloudy, it doesn't work either. I wonder what the hell gave her worries.

"... no. My selfishness."

"Say it. Tiara can tell me more about herself, but she doesn't sweeten me at all."

"That's because we can't inconvenience Master Aqua"

Aquasteed also sits down next to Tiara Rose and strokes its head to spoil it okay. "I don't need to be reluctant," he grinned bitterly.

I definitely need to let this event happen in the middle of the night - that's what I had just sworn in, but Tiara Rose still doesn't want to get in the way of Aquasteed's administration.

I shake my head when I sieve that's the idea that the tension in the middle of the night has caused me to wake up.

But it's Aquasteed who won't let you do that.

"Look, why don't you say it right?

"... but Master Aqua is on official business, isn't he? That's mine."

"No more."

Hey, and. Aquasteed's fingers touch Tiara Rose's lips. Aquasteed implies that no further excuses are needed.

- Shy!

Aquasteed's fingers push into the fuzz so that he enjoys the feel of his lips as they are. "I won't stop you until I tell you," Aquasteed said, sounded like a lot of fun.

Tiara Rose tells her that she doesn't want her mouth open right away, that it shouldn't stay like this.

"Don't you want me to go to the ocean?

"Yes. - But this is my selfishness"

"... Huh?

Aquasteed tilts his neck as he dyes his cheeks and sees Tiara Rose nagging a little.

I thought you might be jealous of Isira's relationship. I thought you were going to have such a cute snack not to go see Isira.

However, what Tiara Rose asked me was slightly different.

- Not to Miss Isira, the sea?

That means it's good to go to Isira's mansion, but don't go to the sea. Aquasteed didn't know what the hell Tiara Rose meant to say that.

I also thought you wouldn't want me to go to the ocean because the sea fairy hates me - but that wouldn't be possible either.

Tiara Rose, who is going to be queen, is very willing to study about fairies. I don't think it would be very good to make a rejection because of the recommendation.

No way there's going to be a game event! And so on, and Tiara Rose can't possibly explain it.

Apparently, I'm not going to say a clear reason. Look at Tiara Rose, but Aquasteed can't help but conclude.

"Let's stop going"

"Huh -?"

"I'll leave the new species of coral to Elliot. I'm more important to Tiara."

If you read the report, Aquasteed would tell you that nothing happened.

There have been particularly many butlers lately and I thought they were making Tiara Rose feel lonely. Aquasteed. This much selfishness just seems cute.

"Dear Aqua, Uh, well... thank you."

"- Yeah. Sweeter. If you get lonely when I'm unaware, come right away."

"Yes...... Huh!

Gyu, Tiara Rose hugged Aquasteed, who was sitting beside her. I think Aquasteed is happy to hug it and try to make more time for the two of us.

Slowly stroke Tiara Rose's cheek as it is, and soften her jaw with her fingers. Aquasteed brings his face closer as he mouths it - but the noise of a knock sounds indoors, even in disgust.

"...... Huh!!"

It was Tiara Rose who surprised and quickly let her go. If anyone saw this place, I was ashamed and confident I was pulling into the room.

On the contrary, Aquasteed regretted and found himself irritated by the sudden visitors. "Go ahead," she said, encouraging her to enter the room, and it was Isira who put her face on.

Excuse me, Your Highness.

"Miss Isira... Sorry, Elliot will accompany you on your inspection today."

"Well, you are. Yes, sir."

Without moving Aquasteed's rejection, Isira acknowledges. But that Elliot is currently out of his seat and is not in the office.

Tilt his neck and said, "How soon will you be back?," asks Isira.

"Probably will be back soon - yes, shall we go along the way? Tiara, come too."

"Dear Aqua?

"Elliot is going to the Knights, but along the way there is a beautiful rose garden. It would be a change of mood, wouldn't it?

Tiara Rose and Isira immediately agreed to Aquasteed's proposal.

The roses raised in the royal castle are very brilliant and very popular with the lady. Tiara Rose was so happy that Aquasteed invited her.

Isira is with me, but I'm more than happy to take care of Aquasteed. I also thought that if Elliot and I were going back to the mansion, we could be alone with Aquasteed afterwards.

"Shall we go then? I'm sorry I put Miss Isira through so much trouble."

"No, because I, too, really like roses."

"That's good"

Dust and smile, Aquasteed walks escorting Tiara Rose.

Isira walked behind it and came to the garden where the roses bloom as the three of us surrounded the fountain.

"Wow, beautiful"

"It's beautiful..."

Tiara Rose and Isira raised their exclamation and were found in the beauty of that rose.

A fountain molded with the sculpture of a goddess, a colorful rose that encloses it. Pink, yellow, red and it entertained Tiara Rose's eyes.

If I put my face closer, it smells sweet, and I get drunk by accident.

"Glad you like it"

"I have more opportunities to see corals than flowers, as long as I'm kind of embarrassed to be a lady."

"Master Isira is growing a very beautiful coral. I think you could be more proud."

I can't believe you're in the ocean more than looking at flowers. I think Tiara Rose should be more proud of Isira for saying it that way.

- It's the heroine of the sequel, so I guess the basic specs are high, of course.

Still, it's only with her efforts that Isira has now. It's something to be proud of, and it's not something that anyone can easily imitate.

Of course, Tiara Rose has also been educated more rigorously than necessary as a courtier and as the queen of Lapis Lazuli. And I can't believe I don't like Isira.

"Thank you. Master Tiara Rose is very kind.... Ah, this is a white rose"

"It's nice to have colors, but white roses are beautiful too,"

"Yeah, and the white looks great on Dear Tiara Rose's honey pink hair."

Usually, an adult Isira shakes when she sees a rose in a year-to-year fashion. When it looked absolutely good on Tiara Rose, I even said happy words.

But at the next moment, Isira, stretched out to see a slightly higher rose, collapsed - falling toward the fountain.

"- Miss Isira!

"Yikes! Dear Isira!?"

It was Tiara Rose who screamed in surprise.

But what moved faster than that was Aquasteed. The moment I saw Isira falling in, I ran out and sheltered Isira with it.

With a big blister in place, Aquasteed falls into the fountain. Fortunately, did Isira not fall into the fountain?

"His Highness Aquasteed...... Huh!

"Dear Aqua!

A sheltered Isira immediately kneels down to the edge of the fountain and asks Aquasteed whether it is cheap or not. Tiara Rose also rushed right over, trying to speak up if she was okay - her body solidified, as if she had stopped breathing.

- Nice guy who drips water, too.

By the back of Tiara Rose's brain was one still.

Midnight reminded me of an illustration of a good man who drips water too. Aquasteed, who woke up from the fountain, looked a lot like the stills.

If I recall well, Aquasteed now wore the same clothes as that still. And the way the water dripped up his forehead was exactly with Still.

"No... The power of the game is, is the event absolute? I can't do that?

You weren't supposed to go to the beach, but the game event happened.

With helpless thoughts, Tiara Rose burst into tears that seemed to overflow. I tremble wondering if I can't change the flow of the game myself.

- No, if I stay here like this, I'm gonna cry!

Leaving wet aquasteeds and caring Isira on the spot, Tiara Rose runs out at all costs to get off the spot.

Aquasteed's voice calling Tiara Rose in the back caught my ear sweetly - …….
