43 13. Pearl's Heart

…………

"Pearl"

Claire's voice echoes Pearl's Palace, as if the temperature were colder than the bottom of the ocean.

Of course Pearl, the Fairy King of the Sea, the Lord of the Palace, shook his body frightened by his voice. A tough voice I've never heard before lowers the temperature of the ocean.

Always, a gentle and gentle clail who did nothing to anger me. The girlfriend - no, he's angry.

"Clay, Le"

As squeezed out, Pearl calls his name.

The name is called and the grin and clail smile, but those eyes are not laughing. When I looked at the pearl silently and clayed up my beautiful hair slightly - come on, the hair changed to a clear straight water color. The dress, which belonged to a woman, would belong to a neat man, and the original crail would make her look.

As if it were the sky itself, everyone who saw it would think.

"He looked like a woman because Pearl said he didn't like men... but that's enough, right?

"... eh"

Pearl takes a step back, not knowing what's enough.

I felt scared of Claire.

"Uh, the wrinkles..."

"Pearl. We, the Fairy King, have nothing to blame for any other natural disaster. Sometimes it may be judged necessary"

Claire slowly takes her feet under the pearl as she continues her words.

"But..."

Claire crouches so as to gaze at the pearl sitting down.

"- It's not a good idea to involve humans in the situation between me and Pearl, is it?

"... Huh!

Pearl felt her eyeballs get hot.

I wonder why I have to fit all this into my eyes. Of course, though Pearl shouldn't behave cheaply himself.

- Why do you have to fit like this?

It's about this time Pearl looks back at the angry Crail blurry.

All the gear went crazy because of Tiara Rose's coming to this country. Because it's strange that a villain's warrant exists for the sequel game.

But in this world where everyone lives - there is no one who cares about it.

The first to take action were the sea fairies.

It began with me wanting Isira, whom we love, to be happy. I thought if Isira and Aquasteed were together, Isira would be happy.

But there's no way we can separate the compassionate Tiara Rose from Aquasteed.

Pearl didn't really care about this.

Then the next contact was with Claire.

Pearl thought somewhere that he would see her sooner or later because he was blessing Aquasteed. - I didn't think it was going to be an intimate relationship.

……

"Pearl?"

- I thought the Fairy King was a lonely thing, but he was the lonely one.

Seeing Claire and Keith laughing with pleasure, I felt gradually depressed. Though I thought maybe I could get along with humans myself - that's like a dream story.

"I don't need to be alone."

With eyes with no emotions, Pearl tells Claire that.

Crail bites his teeth even though he doesn't want that answer. The truth is, I'm supposed to miss you more than anyone, but Pearl strengthens and locks himself in his shell.

But I can't help it either. That's what I thought, where Claire took one breath - the van and the door to the room where the two of them were opened.

"Dear Pearl!

"Ugh......"

"To Isira Pearlant, not Elliot"

Surprisingly, it was Claire who first returned the reaction.

I hope Isira is in the closest position to the ocean - notably Elliot, whose face is supposed to be terrible.

And soon, Crayle and the others remembered that he was the one who took the love pill when it came to it.

"Duh, please, can you give me a pill that will eliminate the effects of love pills?

……

To Isira's words, Pearl sees them both silently.

"Why doesn't Elliot make Isira his own when he has the power?

"Pearl!"

"Huh! K, Master Crail?

Isira was surprised for a moment because she looked different from her usual beauty - immediately, returning her gaze to Pearl. And people's minds diligently tell them that it's not something they can manipulate with drugs.

Before Isira like that, Elliot speaks out, "No."

"With me, you're too different.... because my favorite people are aristocrats"

"Elliot......"

To an unbroken confession, Isira and Claire are breathtaking. I don't know who Elliot thinks, but the walls of identity are definitely high.

When Claire smiles like she's in trouble, the pearl sitting up and poking a fan at Elliot.

"Why do you care about such a difference in status? If you're a man, you can help yourself protect as many women as you like!!"

"... Huh!

Raising the loudest voice ever, Pearl glances at Elliot.

"A man cares too much about his identity. He also left to say that he was a different person. Never be united in man and fairy king, yes - …"

"Pearl"

Twitch, tears overflow in Pearl's eyes.

Pearl's words won't stop, though Claire won't offer a handkerchief to calm him down.

"Yet he said he would get the name of the woe because he didn't want to forget the woe. I don't need anything, like feeling halfway..."

Tears as big as pearls spilled out of Pearl's eyes.

Isira, who sees it, hacks. Pearl said he was given his name.

- My name is Isira Pearlant.

In the name of Pearl, loved and clan by the sea fairies.

- Does that mean your old uncle long ago refused to accompany you with Mr. Pearl?

I've never heard such a story before, and several generations here have been at peace. It must have been quite a while ago, Isira thought.

- If that's true... Oh, my God, is it cruel?

I can't believe the man I liked married and defended that name for generations. When I thought Pearl was watching that nearby, Isira thought she couldn't help but hate herself.

Pearl, however, allows the fairies of the sea to bless, and the sea has always been calm.

- Is that because of Lady Claire?

When Isira turns her gaze to Crail, she sees a very spicy look. That alone shows that Claire knew what happened to Pearl.

"............... that, I'm sorry. It's stronger."

"Elliot, there's tears..."

Hearing Pearl's words, Elliot stopped the tears. Those eyes have a strong will and you can no longer see the color of being made to fall in love with Isira by medicine.

"It just - it seems to have expired."

"Yes."

"Then go - you did, but go under whom you should think"

"Huh!?"

I need to tell you no more because you're not the same person - when I looked into Elliot's eyes, who told me so, Pearl smiled satisfactorily and gently transferred only Elliot.

And after seeing Claire and Isira several times, he took a slow, deep breath and opened his mouth.

"... Sorry for the inconvenience. I've done a terrible job with Isira, and I've tasted a lot of fear for humans."

"No, no... Dear Pearl. I am the one who, knowing nothing, is blessed by the sea - I'm sorry."

"It's okay. Was too indifferent to humans."

Pearl smiles with a smile that's going to disappear.

Then turn your gaze to Claire.

"Crail...... Thank you for keeping an eye on these strawberries. Forget that man, I thought it was just Claire - he's no king."

"Nothing wrong with Pearl about that. You just used it to be good for a terrible man, so forget it."

"Huh -?"

Pong, Claire's big hand strokes Pearl's hair.

Take a big breath, for Christ's sake, and now think with your hands on your hips about what to do. Claire and I think it's too much this time, even though it's because of how many reasons.

If you hadn't bothered anyone, you might have had a lovely yakimo.

"I didn't know Pearl liked me enough to have a tsunami. I thought you hated me."

"! Wah, the wrinkles...... ugh!!"

Pearl shakes his head in a hurry at Claire's words, Sharan and the hair decorations make noises.

"But Pearl. You have to be properly aware of what you've done this time. In the name of Claire the Fairy King in the sky, I take Pearl..."

"Please wait!!"

Claire spins words to declare punishment on Pearl. but Isira forcibly raises her voice and stops it before she says what it is.

"... Isira Pearlant, this isn't about humans talking, is it?

"I know, I'm here. … but"

Claire, blocked from her own words, answers Isira in a low voice. Isira breathes heavily and states to Claire, trembling at that voice without discouragement, which is not the kind of voice she was speaking to Pearl.

"Will you let me keep the punishment for Master Pearl..."

"! What are you talking about, Isira? That kind of pity is useless!

…………

Unlike Pearl, who immediately disputed, Claire silently urges Isira to go ahead.

"I have received the grace of Lord Pearl, even though I did not know him. Will you forgive me for my punishment for serving me..."

"Straw, do you want me to serve a human being?"

The tingly air runs indoors.

Without making any assumptions about it, Isira snorted. Pearl clails - sin must be lighter to serve himself than to be punished by the Fairy King.

In addition, it is also significant that the power of the Fairy King of the Sea can be used on the human side, albeit temporarily.

Isira's choice, which also included such an intention. But I was also certain that this was the best decision for Pearl.
