107 2. Invitation to Sandrose

Sunlit sand holds heat and half of the country is desert Sandrose Empire.

Giraffed heat during the day and freezing cold during the night. To be honest, it may not be an easy environment to live in.

But the desert roses that bloom there are so beautiful, and not many of the ladies say they want to see them once before they die.

I seldom draw water to each household, so I go to the oasis every morning to collect the water I use on that day for a living.

Today the girl went to the oasis to get some water, but... I notice things are different from usual.

The adults nearby also gave a peek at the look of surprise and anxiety. What the hell is that? If you think so and look at the oasis - there was less water than yesterday.

"What's going on with less water in the oasis...!

"Sixty years old, I've never seen anything like it."

"No way...... it never dries up!?"

People's anxiety grew at once, saying what they thought to themselves.

If I may be mistaken, I use the water of the oasis as a blessing every day. Impossible to see it wrong. People's stirring gets bigger and bigger, and their anxiety spreads -.

"Sire Saravia, the water in Sandrose's oasis is dwindling...... Huh!

"... well. Is that all you got?

"Huh? Yes..."

"You should go back and rest now"

Royal Castle of Marine Forest, one room reserved for Salavia.

Orange bright curtains and lace overlaid on them. The room, organized in bright shades, may be perfect for Saravia, whom Tiara Rose tells Chara.

But now Saravia doesn't even make such a charming appearance feel fine dust.

Saravia Sandrose, Emperor of the Sandrose Empire.

Brown skin, short blonde hair. The red eyes are narrowed and at first glance I don't know what I'm thinking.

Until now, I've got everything I want. Now I'm in love with the feisty Tiara Rose I'm not afraid of myself, and I'm staying at Marine Forest saying it's to get it.

Now in this room are the Lord, Saravia, the nearby Izette, and the knight of the decree who was reporting.

The knight rushed to his early horse to inform Saravia of Sandrose's anomaly. I still get the temper to keep my breathing a little disturbed and not report it any sooner.

The oasis may wither...... the knight who had such a hurry is baffled by Saravia, who is looking badly calm. You think you're gonna take things more seriously.

But Saravia told me to back off. As far as I'm concerned, I have to back off. Saravia took a small breath as the knight thanked her and left the room behind.

"We need to get back close to the country, but we also need to get ready for it..."

"Right. Exactly, you can't leave a country in this state empty."

In reply to Saravia's words, Izette replies while holding her temples down. If it's going to be pretty tough, I guess it's bothering your mind about the future ahead.

The vicinity of Saravia, Izet.

To brown skin, a desert people, silver hair. Because of his serious personality, he is often swept away by free-running Saravia.

For one thing, as Izette makes all the arrangements - one thing that bothers me.

"What happened to the jewels you gave to Dear Tiara Rose after all? It must have been a fabric stone to do something about this situation, right?

"Oh, the jewel you gave Rose"

What Izette told me was when Saravia went to see Tiara Rose pretending to be a merchant.

The red gem, previously given to Tiara Rose, is officially called 'Salamander's Tears'. It is told that the tears shed by the Spirit of Fire Salamander have become gems, but it is not sure if they were truly tears.

"Hopefully, we'll build strength in Salamander's tears... I don't know"

If we don't know yet, Saravia sighs.

"I can't save Salamander with my power.... I'm sorry I sent Rose the jewels in silence, but there's no guarantee it'll work"

"As far as the condition of the knight earlier, it seemed pretty serious. If you do it badly, there will be a riot, right?

"To keep you from doing that, I'm here."

"Dear Saravia..."

Take a big, deep breath and Saravia closes her eyes.

Far from ancient times, salamanders sleep beneath the Sandrose Empire.

... No, should I say that Sandrose was founded in the land where Salamander slept? Since then, Salamander and the royal family of Sandrose have made a covenant.

Salamander usually sleeps, but wakes up hungry in a hundred year cycle. The role of the royal family is to give Salamander the magic of the name of food.

Until now, nothing has gone wrong because the royal family has given Salamander magic. But this time, I chose a different means because I couldn't do it.

Tiara Rose was chosen as the person to be given magic to Salamander instead of Salavia.

"I'm getting the blessing of the Fairy King, so I thought maybe - but I didn't know it was Dompisha. At first, I thought I'd just use it."

Saravia laughs when she is now completely obsessed with Tiara Rose.

"I didn't think anyone with the power to match the wavelength of Salamander would be anywhere but the royal family of Sandrose."

"We can't do that either. I wonder who the hell you are, even though you'll never fit in with a normal person. Rose is."

Not everyone can be given magic to a salamander.

As Saravia told us, it can't be done without the magic of the right wavelength. Is it possible to find such a human being to such an extent as to find sand and gold grains from the desert?

No, maybe it doesn't even exist. That's what I thought, but I had to give Salamander some magic, so I checked it out for once.

Among them was the people living in Marine Forest, where the fairy blessings are. Isn't there a slight change in magic? and conducted an investigation in secret.

Blessed are many fairies...... It was a normal magic.

Then what about Aquasteed, who is blessed by the Fairy King? The quality of magic was better than normal, but not as good as the wavelength fits.

When I was about to give up, I checked the magic wavelength of Tiara Rose and found that it was suitable for salamanders.

It also had a heterogeneous soul to have as a reincarnator and the height of the original specs for being the main character in the game called Villain Warrant Lady... that Saravia couldn't possibly know about.

"We're going to have Salamander share the magic of Tiara Rose, so we have to invite her to Sandrose.... or will the circumstances be explained?

"I'll send an invitation to the festival, so there won't be a problem. Exactly. There's an interaction. You're not gonna turn down my invitation."

When I look at Aquasteed's drowning, he doesn't seem to let go, but the guy thinks exactly public and private.

"The thing is... we'll see how Salamander goes for a second. From the tears of the salamander, it would be best if only magic were successfully removed and given"

"Right. If His Majesty Aquasteed decides it may be a dangerous place, it will be difficult to take Master Tiara Rose."

"Oh."

I was wondering if I could safely fill the salamander I was about to wake up with magic. Saravia nodded less confidently than usual.

A few days later...

"Dear Aquasteed, you have received an invitation."

"Hmm?"

Elliot with a single letter came under Aquasteed, who works in the office.

Sit in a black leather chair and place the documents you were looking through first on your desk.

Aquasteed's office is summed up in an atmosphere of calm based on black. There is a gentle breeze through the window that opens just a little and is comfortable.

"Is this... an invitation from Sandrose? The sender, of course, is His Majesty Salavia"

When I retrieved and read the letter using a paper knife, there was an invitation to the ceremony "Festival of Fire and Water" at Sandrose.

This is an annual Sandrose festival, but we should not have normally invited royalty from other countries.

Aquasteed looks at the letter with surprise and sighs small.

"You can't just say no to a formal invitation..."

"Right. Everything seems to be going pretty well this year."

"... I see"

It was easy to imagine what Crayle and the others had told me about Salamander.

Hopefully it won't be any trouble, Aquasteed sighs again.

"With all those sighs, happiness runs away, doesn't it?

"Elliot...... that would be superstitious"

What do you think?

It was Elliot on the side who told him with a gentle grin.

Soft brown hair, including slightly orange. I've been calm from time to time, but I'm a man who can do his job exactly.

Now to propose to Filine, I am more encouraging than to get aristocracy.

Have a sip of tea, Aquasteed now what to do...... and it bothers my head.

"Participation in the ceremony is between me and Tiara. The climate in Sandrose is tough, so schedule your itinerary at your leisure."

"Okay. In addition to Filine and Tarmo, Tiara Rose will be accompanied by several knights."

"Oh, nice to meet you"

Then you'll also need a souvenir, so you have to think of something.

Looking at the invitations, we can afford the ceremony days in three months. Nevertheless, there are about fifteen days by carriage to Sandrose. There won't be much time to relax.

"But when it comes to sandrose, it looks hot. Your outfit might also need some heat protection..."

"Right. Especially since Tiara isn't even working out like me or Elliot, so it could be hard. Tell Filine to get the dress ready as soon as possible."

"Okay."

Elliot nodded and left the office to adjust schedules, etc., with Filine.

Aquasteed moves the hand he was stopping again and runs his eyes on the paperwork.

If we were to go to Sandrose, we would be vacating the Royal Castle for over a month. I knew I was going to sigh again when it seemed like a busy day for a while.
