37 Episode 37: Masks Strip, Fall In Love
"... Together, the story goes out of line a lot but communicates the rest of the decision. Anisphere, it's Uphilia. I give you my life."
"King's life, is it?
"Mm-hmm. Either way, you can't cut off the spiritual covenant. I order you to study and elucidate the spiritual contract from the point of view of the researchers of magic."
In other words, from the King, it becomes a study and study of spiritual covenants duly authorised by the State. It is very difficult for you to say this from your father.
Until now, magic has been nothing but my way of doing things. Results are not officially recognized as a country. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the first historic feat that your father has asked you to be king.
... nature and mind exalt. Whatever you say, it's a pleasure for me that Father appreciates magic.
"... it's Anis"
"Yes."
"I asked for it."
That's all, really enough.
I thank my father deeply. Whatever the consequences, now I'm not afraid of anything anymore. When I became king, I thought my heart was something I had to kill. He said there was only dictatorship to set him free.
If I changed my perspective a little, I would have noticed. I... well, it seems everyone's taking care of me. I guess I'll just have to grow up a little bit in the future. Even in the sense of reassuring.
"Let's make sure we can meet with the spiritual contractors in our country soon"
"Thank you!
"Uhm.... but because I'm secular away from you in a different way. It might break my bones a little bit. Not right away. You guys are gonna do what you can by then, right?
"Yes! Of course it is!
There's plenty to do. Let's first formally request the Ministry of Magic to disclose the materials. Heh heh, we have a royal life here! The king's life! The king's words will never be!
... Well, we also have to do something about our relationship with the Ministry of Magic. Are you busy with the restructuring because the Chartreuse family, which has been at the top of your list, has fallen? I didn't really think it was a good idea for me to poke, so I was deciding to be static, hmm. I was wondering if I'd bite a bit to get the dossier out.
"Uphilia, may I have a moment?
Yes, my queen.
When I was talking to my father, Uffi was taken by my mother and left the room....... I'm just curious because there's something I've been talking about. haven't blown weird things in, have you, Mother?!?
As I was a little worried and exploring the signs at the end of the door, I hardened my posture when I noticed Lord Grants dropping by nearby. Ugh, a little awkward on the boulder......!
"G, Lord Grants......"
"Princess Anisphere. Can I talk to you for a second?
"... Yes"
"I don't want you to be hard on yourself. It's about Yufi."
"Yes......"
This is scary......! It's so intimidating......! No, the signs aren't that harsh, but I still have pressure on my eyes just to be normal. My eyes are too strong.
"When she said she didn't want you to be king, she replied that she was loyal.... I couldn't help but laugh."
"... Yes?
"That is loyal, but to say loyal... some, the color of emotion is deep. If you think of my daughter as a straight line, I miss her a little bit."
"Ha... what is that?
"The blood muscles of my Magenta family, once burned, until later burned out.... Please, thank my daughter again"
"What!? What!? What do you mean, Lord Grants!?"
How can they laugh at such fun and leave disturbing words behind!? That's what the Magenta family is all about!?
Or don't really leave. Why are you laughing and leaving! Lord Grants, Lord Grants!?
"Father up!? What the hell does that mean?!?"
"... the history of the Duke of Magenta family is old. You know that too."
"Oh, that's no more"
"Remember that even when the blood of the royal family diminishes, it was part of the royal family, and I am proud to be born of the historic Duke family. And if it is hereditary or loyal, many thick are born. But if your thoughts burn, then you're stubborn."
"... what is that?
"I can't get my head up on Grants, because... he's my best friend and my brother's kind of opponent. I've been taking care of you for a long time."
"At the time, I gathered around His Majesty Orphans as the ruler of the rugged kingdom of Palletia, but I didn't go sailing smoothly."
"Head of the Sprout Knights!
The Sprout Knights captain, who has been mixed up in conversation at some point, is smiling bitterly.
Speaking of which, my mother used to call me names, but actually, you know, dating since then?
"His Majesty Orphans is somewhat hard-working and has gentle sexual roots. Besides once it sinks in, it's muddy. Ha ha ha, how many times Lord Grants was yelling at me and slapping me in the butt!
"Matthew! You!
"Besides, I came next door with Master Silphine. I miss you even when you couldn't stay weak, Your Majesty."
"That kind of thing was used by Grants and Silphine with their jaws!
"It was more peaceful than His Majesty, who had been slapped in the butt and stirred up with pneumonia."
Oh, it's in my eyes. If your father messes with you, Lord Grants and your mother are pulling you out and letting you stand on the arrow. There was also a Sprout Knights Commander there, hmm......
"What Lord Grants wanted to say was that the House of the Duke of Magenta would never betray the loyal opponent it once decided to do. No matter how low you stand, if you decide you deserve the letter. Miss Uffilia said she was drawing the blood of the Duke of Magenta."
"Ha ha..."
"If this is a same-sex opponent, I would settle into a pattern like a good friend or brother, like His Majesty and Lord Grants..."
"... hmm?
"... Uphilia's loyalty has a strong color of affection, unlike his own. I mean, you wanted to say it wasn't just loyalty. Grants is."
Ha, and sigh and father rubs his eyebrows loose.... after all, is that what they're looking at you for?! or even from your parents, yuffi!?
"As a Princess Anisphere, don't you wish or fulfill?
"No, no, no!... I did say girls are good for a long time!
"What is it, is it not clear?"
"... Isn't that strange? Normally, I thought they'd never come out the same way."
I wondered if there would be a concubine or something! That's not true! It's kind of like a pet, and I don't think love means anything! So honestly, it's unrealistic.
Ugh, uhh, roaring, then I turned my gaze to one of my dependents in shame.
"Raini!"
"Hih. Hey, what is it?
"... Doesn't Ufi feel like that's just loyalty...?
"... Dear Anis"
Why are you looking at such a pathetic creature, Raini? Stop, stop that raw, warm gaze!
"That's not what I'm saying. I recommend that you discuss this with Master Uphilia."
"Duh, I don't know what to look like..."
Raini, your father sent me a seemingly pathetic gaze. I can't solve it.
Don't slap me on the shoulder with a bitter smile, Captain Sprout Knights. It's breaking my heart.
"Yes, women are brave!
I've tried to worry about it since I got back out of the palace, but I don't get an answer. I didn't confess to Yuffi in the first place, and I didn't confess from me.
Though they did say something like a proposal, and they also said they don't mind devoting their whole lives! If you hadn't told me you still were, we wouldn't have established the facts!
So if you're bored, you just have to ask him directly! So if that's not what you mean, then that's fine!... maybe.
No, no, but what if even Uffi still feels halfway and doesn't know which way to fall? Doesn't that make you awkward? Me. No, but it's honestly awkward as it is now...
Ha!? Kuh, my thoughts are twisted again...... this doesn't suit me! Repeat! Women are brazen! You just have to hit it and smash it!
"... Yu, Yufi? Still awake?
It was sometime in the night while I was stuffy and troubled. Yufi visited my room at night, but this may be the first time she's visited from me.
Hey, did you fall asleep? Yufi sleeps well, so I might just go to bed at night. 'Cause he looks like an honorable student, and he doesn't seem to be mad at Ilia all night long or anything like me......
"... Dear Anis?
My heart bounced loudly on my voice coming back from across the door. I want to turn right. What are you gonna do, run away here? Me! Or you have no reason to run! Uh, I don't know anymore. No!
I don't know what I don't know. I won't leave you behind! Ask Uffi the answer and you'll see! Think afterwards! The second repetition! Woman! Breast!
"Ha, I'm coming in!
"Eh."
When I entered the room before waiting for Yuffi's reply, I met Yuffi, who was distraught when I stood up. Oh, this is as embarrassing as I thought.
I look at Yuffi with my back hand closed to delude him. Duh, brains!
"... heh, heh...!
"Wow... they laughed...!
Even though I looked funny like that, Yuffi began to laugh as she hid her mouth and bent her back. Ugh, shut up! I thought it was funny, too!
"Tell me and I'll open it... Welcome, Dear Anis"
"Ugh, yeah."
"Go ahead, next door."
And, next door. I was just about to get out of bed, and, uh, maybe you were asleep?
Awkward as I thought. He said he was brainless, but I shouldn't want to bother you......!
"Oh, did I wake you?
"No. I was still blind. It's not like there's tea here in Anise's room..."
"Yes, fine.... next door, sit down."
Take your breath and never sit next to Uffi with your will. It's no less comfortable than the bed in my room. It seems true to say it's before bed, and Yuffi's hair is usually tied down with a half-up as well.
There is no agitation in Yufi's expression. Rather, as usual as I float, I even feel my guts shrivel. I can't beat you! I don't know what I'm gonna lose, but I'm not gonna lose!
"... do you care that much? What the Queen told me."
"Ugh."
It's going to be broken at the opening. Rather broken. My nose was frustrated and my guts shriveled.
"... you feel sorry for me?
"No. I think Master Anis has a weakness in the crowd too... I think she's cute, don't you?
"... I've never seen Uffi say he's cute."
It's been a freak, weirdo, weirdo, three beats before. No, I'm not really complimented. I've always been told to disqualify royalty...
"... Isn't Uffi annoying? Well, that's what you'll see with me."
"Are you going to ask that now?
"No, I am..."
I did, maybe even more now. 'Cause I've always been around to say I like girls, and I can't deny when people tell me that's the intention that surrounded Uffi, and I did prefer Uffi!
"... I was aware of the boulder. About the fact that I'm changing. So, no one like me would be in a boulder."
"You never get romantic feelings about the same sex, do you?
"... yeah. Especially among the nobles. I have to give birth to a heir."
"Lady Anis is usually imprisoned in common sense in a habit that doesn't have a thump."
I guess. I'm aware that I'm changing myself, and I don't feel so imprisoned by common sense, but I'm not sure there. I was never conscious. I can also say I didn't need to be aware...
"I admire Lord Anis... but honestly, I don't know if that's romantic emotion."
"... oh, yeah"
"I've never been in love in the first place, so there's no comparison. I do hear love stories and such, but it doesn't mean that my feelings overlap there."
Oh, shit. Safe, like eating a shoulder watermark. Whatever it was, I lost my temper, stroked my chest down and exhaled.
Gun, and his body was pulled back and looking up at the ceiling. That, and it is worn so that Uffi can cover it over me before I recognize reality.
"... Huh?
"But if Master Anis wants you to see it that way... you don't mind, do you?
What do you care, Master Uphilia?
It's going to be a tribute, and they hold my wrist where I tried to get up and push me into bed. Hey, wait a minute! It's suppressed!?
"Hey, wait a minute! Wait, Uffi!
"Yes."
"Not a romantic emotion myself, I told you!?"
"Ha. I did say I didn't know. Is it something that imitates others and makes them fall in love in the first place?
"No, not for reference!?"
But I've never heard of women's romance stories.
"Heh, you say reason, that's what you say!
"Don't you like it?
For a moment, I was lost in my response to that question. Don't you like it, don't you?
Uffi faces her lips, who asked for air to gasp without words. Ufi blocks me and dims my vision. The look on Yufi's face, which he sees with backlight, is kind of vain and colorful and his heart bounces as loud as it sounds.
"... or are you scared?
There is a worrying color on Yufi's face that is so close to touching her now.
Scared? Scared of what? I don't know. But it gets quieter as if it were cold that my heart was bouncing loudly. I close my eyes and breathe.
"... My queen told me. He wants me to take a good look at you. I'm sure she's a master of lies. You don't have to be fake to be fake. Until you tell me, you may not be aware that you're hiding it."
"... your mother?
"Dear Annis today, he said he seemed frightened by something. He said in his mouth that he clearly didn't have to be loved as a parent, that he seemed to want the affection of his parents. That didn't seem like what the kid thought it was, that it looked more real. It's like being in the shape of a parent or a child."
……
Strength fell out of the body that was so tense in that allegation. Restricted to form, he said. He says he wants it for real. If they say that... just one thing, I know it.
But is it a good thing to talk about it? I don't know. I don't know, but it's the first time I've realized it since I was pointed out. Blur and what comes to mind distracts my mind. Oh, well. I couldn't stand it because I wouldn't be noticed the whole time, and I couldn't because I noticed it.
".................. Ufi"
"Yes."
"Will you devote your life to me?
"Yes."
"Aren't you lying?
"I swear."
"Then... will you take my secret to the grave?
"... Yes"
What I didn't tell anyone. That I wasn't aware of. I forgot it with a sense of happiness to follow my dreams, mine.
"I, really... what can I say? Yes, you are. It must be a fake."
It was fake. So I had to be real. The words seemed to fit perfectly into my mind.
"…" Fake "?
I frowned at the words that Lady Annis told me.
Anis, who visited the room when he was lying in bed without sleep, looked nervous and somewhere behaved suspiciously.
I thought it was unstable, and that's what I felt when I saw it. So during the day, at the end of the meeting, I thought of what the queen had told me.
"I want you to take a good look at her. That kid is faking something to us. While he doesn't think so either. I'm a master of lies, and I don't make you think lies are lies. No, as much as she thinks she's true herself.... I'm sorry, I can't say well either, but I felt that way. So look at her. You're probably the only one who can give her a vegetarian look. Uphilia '
To be honest, I leaned my neck against the queen's words. You think Master Anis is lying enough to falsify his feelings? Enough to fool yourself? I was wondering if such a lie seemed like an implication. What the hell is a lie so much that Master Anis would imply it to himself if it existed?
Speaking of which, and. That's where I came up with it. It's about "Raini's implication". Raini said he would be bounced because Master Anis would resist immediately. Though he himself said that the cause might be the effect of the curse caused by the engraving of the dragon's demonic stone.
But what if that's not the only reason? If you've already made your own "implication"? When such an imagination passed, an unpleasant chill was what ran my spine.
But, for example, I feel that Anis is calmly accepting to escape the harsh reality. I also want to think that I meant everything I thought about my family, and the words lie, falsehood really didn't tie me to Master Anis.
But when I saw the anise visiting the room, I thought, Should that be called a mask rather than a lie or a lie? Have you noticed or not noticed yourself, too? It was like the mask was cracked and something was visible and hidden.
So I tried. Master Anis seemed to care about being seen in love with me. But that doesn't match what you said or did when you protected me or when you declared you weren't getting engaged.
If you like girls and like me too. I was wondering if that would be a pleasure. Is that confusion from joy, or is it another reason?
And if I pushed Master Anis down, what I felt was... the color of fear. It's still odd discomfort, like he's just not aware of it either. The queen's words come back even if she doesn't like the discomfort that doesn't match her expression and reaction.
And when I asked him repeatedly, Mr. Anise showed a reaction that would make that mask peel off. And there was an anise like I'd never seen before.
She says. He said he was a "fake." He said he had something to keep secret. But I don't know what that is.
"Uphilia... do you remember not herself?
"... a memory that's not me, is it?
"Yeah. Not here. Somewhere, I don't remember myself living"
"... no"
"To me, it was in my head when I felt like it. I remember that."
... it is.
What the hell is that all about?
"I have memories of previous life. I mean... I'm not here, I'm someone else who's going to live the life of a girl named Anisphere Wynn Palettia."
"Is that possible?
"Haha, I have that.... my magic is proof of that."
"Magic?
I didn't think, "Let's fly magically." I knew how to fly magically, so I was able to create magic. "
... to the point of becoming. Then the order is certainly the opposite. It's a big difference that Anis was able to produce magic because he knew, not because he derived it.
I didn't get a flash, I knew the way from the start. At that time, the magic of flying in the sky that no one could think of.
"I was a civilian."
"... civilians?
"You didn't have an identity, to be exact. It was a world full of magic props that I invented in magic as a matter of course. Anyone can buy as long as they have the money. I lived in that world."
"... such a world"
"It's only in my head, though. And this isn't about the world. It's conclusive evidence."
You put a foreground, and then Master Anis squeals like he spits out something seriously painful.
"There's no magic. There's no magic."
"... no magic?
"To be precise, it was a world without spirits. It was the existence of a gaga story. It wasn't real. Magic was just a dream story to make kids listen. At least that was the reality for me."
Lady Anis closed her eyes and continued her words with a slow exhalation.
"I still remember the moment I woke up. It was really a mundane moment. I woke up like what was falling apart in my head was fitted. From then on, I was" Anisphere Win Palettia. "
"... it"
"I'm not me. But I was" Anisphere Win Palettia ". I couldn't be any more, I couldn't go back, and I just had to live like that. I didn't hate that."
Lady Anise's breath trembled. My hands, which were loose, hide to cover my face.
It's like putting your nails on a mask. It's going to crumble and break. Hold that, as if it's going to hide your face.
"But I ruined Al's future because of me. endangered the future of this country."
――――
"If I was just" Anisphere Win Palettia, "if I wasn't even remembered in my previous life!... Oh yeah! Always, always, always, always! That scared me!!"
Master Anis screams like he went mad. The mask breaks, the face becomes dewy. I was there... just like a child.
"I admired magic, but I couldn't use magic even though I was royal! It's in front of me, but I couldn't reach it! That's why I wanted a replacement! I wanted a compliment! I, I, I'm not weird, I wish you hadn't thought of me weird! Just a kid who can do great things! Or you'll find out! I'm not the Anisphere Win Palettia. I know who I am! Isn't that cruel!? Can you imagine Yufi? If you were told to live as someone different from tomorrow, I'd have all my memories, but I think I am, but I have another me! What would your father think if your mother found out? Such a child, isn't it creepy?!?"
Master Anis is screaming. Scream with blood spitting thoughts.
"I was loved. I knew it. As royalty, but they still loved me. I didn't want to betray you! If it just seemed weird to me, I just had to push through! All I had was the knowledge in my head, a weapon!... That's why I created magic. My, my own magic."
"... that was your secret."
"I wasn't aware. I didn't want to. I didn't try.... because if I look there, I won't be able to be those people's child. I'll take those people's children. I could have taken it all the way to the future of the country, but I could do such a cruel thing...? So it was... easier to be a henchy princess. That was me. As weird as they say, I was stiffened by weird myself.... Mother, that's amazing. I even realized I didn't notice. Really, I was blessed with a good mother, I..."
As I mourn from the bottom of my heart, even though I am happy. She squeals.
Hard to imagine, her only pain was there. I looked at her bottom so painfully. I've seen one scale that no one understands.
Oh, this guy was so "heterogeneous" and so "normal".
"... yeah. Refreshing. Of the mind, it feels like some of the people I've been to are back. This is my secret, Uffi. I really am, it wasn't Anisphere Wynn Palettia. It was someone. But at the same time, I'm the Anisphere Win Palettia."
"... Yes"
"I didn't want to be king, yeah. I had this underlying consciousness. I'm a fake. Heterogeneous. So... I didn't want to make it any more messy. the world of the people who loved me. Besides,"
"... and?
"The magic, it was really nice. It was just what I admired. I liked this world. I thought I could love you.... this is all I am for real. Whether magic is imitation or I'm fake, the feeling of magic is real."
... so she obsesses with magic. It produced a product called magic without giving up that magic could not be used.
But too much for me. It's too - I'm angry!
"I'm an idiot"
"Huh?"
"You are! It's stupid! It's all, it's all set for real, isn't it? You are the Anisphere Win Palettia! The princess of my country who inherited your blood! I sent into this world a great alternative to magic, even without magic! Even if he was a stranger as a royal family, he still held his heart to thinking of someone! What do you say none of that is real!?"
She thinks of herself as a fake somewhere in her heart and decides that there's only one thing that's real. She was too pathetic, stupid, miserable to look at.
"It could have been someone else."
"... Ufi...?
"It wasn't Princess Anisphere who wasn't here, was it?"
I can't believe it's fake. You don't have to think that!
There's this guy who thinks it's fake and moans compared to the "real" that doesn't even exist!
"You are! You helped me! You're here! You're listening to me! You are the one who swore my allegiance!! There is no fake or real thing there! You are the only one!!"
―― ――
"Isn't it all good for real? Besides you, I don't have you! So where do you say you are...? It would be here!? All of it! What you felt would be here what I felt!?"
Slap her in the chest and exhale roughly. Only when there are tears in my cheeks and I wipe it away rampantly.
"... it must have been painful all along. I don't know the pain. I can't say I get it, etc. So let me tell you something, Master Anis."
I finally found it, the way to take her hand, the answer to line up next to it.
What this man wanted to be was not a king. "A wizard who can make someone smile," but her dream.
So let me do the magic, too. Give her the magic of salvation, too, as you did to me.
"You're the best wizard in the world to me."
Because this guy keeps admiring magic so much.
- My heart was breaking.
No. It wasn't the heart that broke, it was the chain-like admonition that bound the heart.
Yufi's words melted all over me. A commandment that was in my heart, that even I had turned away myself. Too tight, that shackle that was only with my heart. If you break the adhesion commandment, it hurts. It's decided to make me cry.
"Huh... Huh...!
My throat is cramped. My breath hurts. My vision is full of tears and I see nothing.
Now I felt all was forgiven. I couldn't forgive you one day. It all got better now.
Just free. I'm sure I can't beat anything anymore. What I wanted is in my hand right now. I can definitely grab it.
Hold Yuffi's body tight so he can hold on. I couldn't help it, I wanted to scream, but it was so painful that I couldn't breathe, I asked her to scratch the algae.
I was in the mood to grab the straw. I never wanted to let go. Good thing this guy is the only one for me. I just wanted to hold my breath, it was painful, and yet I was happy, and I couldn't think of anything.
"Yes, but...!
Thank you for saving me.
Thanks for making me a "wizard".
Thanks for finding me that I almost forgot.
I didn't want to be a "king". I've always wanted to be a wizard.
Like giving an ash-covered princess a pumpkin carriage. I want to bring happiness to someone, a smile.
It was a dream. It was a dream that I thought I could get but couldn't reach it. Because I was a bad wizard.
Because it confuses the country and breaks someone's smile. But even for me, if you're in this hand. Because I can still say "real".
Oh, no. I can't breathe even though I want to thank you. It's painful, just painful.
So I didn't know what blocked my breathing.
Soft, warm. My heart remembers a normal heartbeat for a feeling that reminds me to breathe.
Yufi's face spread all over his sight. I was crying at the end of my closed eyes, close enough that my forehead was going to stick...!
"- Huh!? Mmmm...!! Mmmm!
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa!?
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Near, no, it's not, it's blocked, away, powerful!? I can't peel it...!
Even though it's a breath I can't even remember, I leaked my remaining breath. Kurakuri, I thought my head had shaken, and my body lost its strength and sank into bed.
... make sure I'm grown up and Yuffi wakes up and leaves. I wiped those wet lips with my fingers and she made me laugh.
-... oh, this, no. Totally fucked......
I was embarrassed and couldn't see her face properly. All I could do was groan while hiding my face with both arms.
It's really been done. I've made it unconscious, and I'm going to be the real me. It's like I've been enchanted.
I have fallen in love with this man, with Ufilia Magenta, helplessly.
