123 3. The Underground Incident

It was a very sunny feeling to go home to Lapis Lazuli for a long time, but the moment I saw my parents' front door through the carriage window...... Tiara Rose snapped her mouth.

"Sorry! But I want to be Dear Tiara's best friend forever!

…………

Everyone would have wanted to hold their heads to see what the hell they were doing.

At the doorstep - an acari was sitting in the ground.

I saw a clam sitting in the ground and a mother who was bewildered and urging me to go home. The servants, who refrained behind them, all look in trouble.

"Uh, Dear Acari, such... oh, Tiara?

"Huh? Ah, Dear Tiara!"

As soon as Tiara Rose's mother, Irtiana, noticed Tiara Rose's carriage, Akali turned with joy.

It's such a full laugh that I don't think I was grounded until just now.

I wonder what this should do and Tiara Rose turns her gaze to Aquasteed sitting across the street. Likewise, I'm smiling bitterly.

"... before, you must have come to apologize for when you attacked Tiara"

"Huh? That's... that's so much more now"

I nod so much that it is Aquasteed's word. Sure, if that's the case, I don't know or know that Akali is coming to apologize in the dirt.

The heroine of this maiden game, Akali Lapislazuli Lactomut.

Beautiful brunette with glossy straight hair and black eyes. The peach-toned lace dress is adorable and enhances its presence.

I love maiden games and I'm sure no one will beat me when it comes to my ability to act. Now I name myself Tiara Rose's best friend, and we're actually good friends.

Tiara Rose gets off the carriage with Aquasteed escorting her as she endures wanting to sigh.

"Long time no see, Dear Acari. I was very surprised to see such a scene when I returned home after a long time..."

"Haha. Long time no see, Dear Tiara, Dear Aqua"

"I had no choice," says Akali, hand-paying the dirt on his dress.

"Because I wanted Tiara's father to forgive me.... that he attacked Dear Tiara and caused her injury. Well, I can't even get you to meet him."

"Dear Acari..."

I signed up for a visit with my father, but he didn't seem to see me. Tiara Rose sighed this time wondering if that was why she was taking such hard means.

"If so, you can contact me first."

"This is between me and your father, so I won't bother Dear Tiara.... I thought we could make up soon... I'm a heroine."

- Even that heroine can't be a non-attacker (father).

His father, Schnaus, is a loving wife and a fool. There's never going to be anything else to gloat about, and if it's Tiara Rose related, it's going to defy the royal life.

As Tiara Rose and Akali interact, the comforting voice of "Welcome Back" reaches my ear.

"I feel safe looking good, Tiara. Welcome."

"Your mother seems fine and above all. I'm sorry, Mr. Akali bothered you..."

"That's not about Tiara apologizing. … I told Mr. Schnaus that once I met Mr. Akali, he was stubborn, wasn't he?

To Irtiana's words, Tiara Rose can't do anything but snort.

"... For now, let's get into the mansion. Me and Aqua have to say hello to your father."

"I like that. I'm sorry, Sire Aquasteed. I've shown you something ugly."

Watching Irtiana bow her head and apologize, Aquasteed immediately shakes her head. It was all about the acari being arbitrary, and the Clamentiel family had nothing to do with it.

"No, because it's not your mother-in-law's fault. It's been a long time since I've seen you."

"Well, thank you. Let me show you to your room."

Following Irtiana, who said so, Tiara Rose stepped into her parents' house for the first time in a long time.

"Dear Acari, have you been going by for days?!?"

"Because if you don't, you won't forgive me!!"

While waiting for Schnaus to come, the Tiara Roses talk in the reception room. The contents, of course, refer to the dungeon where the acari were.

Apparently, he kept going underground to get forgiveness.

Tiara Rose foreshadows, "I'm glad to hear how Akali feels," and opens her mouth.

"It can be difficult for your father to accept an apology. I can't even tell you that my daughter is clearly a very serious parent."

That's what made my father harrassed when he wouldn't pop up in the first villain warrant felony event.

Aquasteed agrees with Tiara Rose.

"Even I didn't mean to forgive Miss Acari."

"Oh really?!? But Master Aqua treats me normally..."

"Because Tiara, who's supposed to be the victim, forgives everything, and you're getting along with Miss Acari. Whatever I say would be useless?

I hate it when Aquasteed says something and Tiara Rose goes in a direction she doesn't want.

"Thank you, Master Aqua"

"Not at all. I'm left to be harassed because of that."

"Ugh... sorry about that"

It does bother me because when I'm with Akali, I feel like I can get tense and do anything. However, it is often saved by its positive character.

Tiara Rose says difficult things with her mouth, but she also thinks that would be best if Acari and Schnaus reconciled.

I was just wondering what was wrong, and Schnaus and Irtiana came.

"Tiara, I'm glad you look good! Thank you, Your Majesty Aquasteed, for taking us far away."

"I'm relieved your father hasn't changed."

"It's been a while. I'll take care of you for the rest of your stay."

Schnaus is in a good mood because he hasn't seen his daughter in a long time. "Dinner needs to be extravagant," he said, in an atmosphere where even flowers seem to be flying in the background.

But then, I catch a clam at the edge of my sight, and that look breaks down.

"Why does Master Akali? I have not given permission to enter the Mansion..."

I felt the temperature in the room drop to Schnaus, who is telling me to leave in the dark. For once, the current acari is the queen of Haltnites, even though she is the first prince without the right to inherit the throne.

Tiara Rose had to fix Schnaus' mood somehow, but the acari moved before that.

"Sorry, Dear Tiara's father! My dear Tiara and I have made up already and we are best friends!

"Shinyu...... Huh!?"

Listening to Akali's words, Schnaus is struck by the feeling of lightning falling. My own pretty daughter is such a fierce human best friend? Impossible, he said.

Schnaus puts his hand on his forehead and breathes.

"I seem tired too of hearing phantoms. I've been busy working here lately..."

Apparently, he decided not to listen to Akali. Iltiana is a troubled face watching that behind her back.

"... father"

"Hmm? I don't know, Tiara. Let's make it a slow cup of tea till dinner, as we can carry some treats right away."

"Well, sweets!... not"

Calming his mind, which was about to rise unintentionally, Tiara Rose coughs with Cohon before calling Schnaus again.

"Me and Lady Akali, we've really made up. Please, won't you forgive Master Akali anymore?

"Tiara......"

Tiara Rose goes to the side of the acari and shows Schnaus smiling.

Sure enough, they took my fiancée, wounded me, and Tiara Rose would have done a lot of terrible things to Akari. But it's also true that I've had a lot of help so far.

"Besides, Lady Akali also has a huge contribution to make to Lapis Lazuli. Aren't they creating lots of fashions where women are happy, such as the spread of new accessories and treats"

I also do my job as the First Prince's Queen properly.

That's what my pretty daughter tells me, and Schnaus roars mummy. Of course, Schnaus knows what Acari is doing as the prime minister of this country.

That's why it's a different issue from this.

Acari takes a glimpse of Schnaus and sighs small that it seems difficult to get forgiveness after all.

I didn't expect you to forgive me that easily, but it's more than I expected. Even today, I see Tiara Rose thinking I should go home now.

"Thank you, Dear Tiara. I'm so glad you just said that. I'm just trying my best to make sure this world (of games) that I love is peaceful and happy"

"Really, Master Akali loves this country"

"That's right, I love it. Because there's no way you're gonna hate me!

Akali says with a smile that he wishes he had developed more.

"............... well, you think so much about this country"

"Father..."

"Maybe I was the one who wasted all this time."

Acari's love of maiden games seems to have been conveyed to Schnaus even as he flipped a little. The wrinkled expression between the eyebrows earlier disappears, causing tenderness to soften somewhat.

"Your Majesty Aquasteed also allows you to speak of the Akali?

"... right. It's not acceptable what she did to Tiara, but I think she's giving Tiara more than that."

"I see that such a thing..."

No, Schnaus puts some loneliness in his eyes that a daughter is something that is growing up without his parents' knowledge.

"It's okay, Father! Because Dear Tiara, I will be properly happy!!"

"Dear Acari, That sounds like a proposal then!!"

Don't be a weird rhetoric, Tiara Rose stops the clams from cutting.

"Oops, I was. As your friend, I won't betray you for the rest of my life. I've always decided I'm on Tiara's side."

"Then I'm on Akali's side."

"Yes! If anything, I will fly to help, so please help me if anything happens to Tiara, too, right?

Tiara Rose laughs at the clam that if I were there, it would be a hundred manpower. And at the same time, there's no such thing as a scene where an acari gets pinched.

"Master Schnaus, may I forgive you already? Haven't Acari come to apologize every day for the past week or so, whether it's windy or rainy?"

"Iltiana... That's right..."

To a mouthful of schnauz, Tiara Rose pounds her hand.

"Lady Akali often comes to see me, so why don't you start by listening to me from Lady Akali? … it would also be cruel to tell your father to change his mind immediately…"

"Oh, that's good! I know so many cute stories about Dear Tiara and all that! I was so obsessed with making sweets that I didn't even realize they were taking a break."

"Hey, Dear Acari!?"

I told you not to say that, and Tiara Rose upsets me.

"... Tiara, don't get carried away with making sweets all the time. You're already the queen of Marine Forest."

"I know, Father. Akali just said it a little too much..."

"Then that's what we'll do............................ I don't know if I can forgive Master Akali yet, but if this is enough to listen to Tiara, let me give you an ear."

To Schnaus, who said with a little light, Tiara Rose was relieved that she was getting embarrassed.

The day of inviting clams and having a tea party at my parents' house may also come true as soon as I wish.
