“This requires the approval of Dietrinde”

While looking tired of a pile of documents brought by the civilian in the office, Dietrinde signs with a magic tool pen that uses magic power as ink. Dietrinde seriously thought that he would get Glutlis Height early and be troubled by such miscellaneous things that he should become the next Zent.

Since it was hard to go to the center, I went to the lord’s meeting of the aristocracy, so even though there should have been more harvest, Dietrinde’s investigation was completely disturbed by the royal family. regretful.

… I should have understood a little if I could check that underground library.

Dietrinde has become unpleasant, remembering that the third wife of the imperious king was ridiculed, “What if you first studied old language?” It reminds me of Traokvar, who ordered the vine to give Ferdinand a hidden room.

…… Do you mean “when you visit a funeral, make sure that the king ’s life is being executed”?

Traokvar, who gives an insane order to give Ferdinand, who is staying as a fiance, an insane order, seems to be crazy enough to leave the throne . If Dietrinde gets Glutlisheit as soon as possible and does not become a legitimate Zent, ​​Jürgenschmitt will surely perish due to the incompetent king who became Zent without having Glutlisheit. .

…… I wonder what that really is. Jurgenschmitt’s future is on my shoulder.

Dietrinde, who remembered the words of the people in the central temple, leaked a sigh of “being troubled.” I don’t realize that the clerk who waits for the end of the sign beside me thinks that “I’m in trouble is here” because I’m thinking, and the signing of the document has stopped.

“… Eh?”

Suddenly, goose bumps stood on Dietrinde’s arm, and the spine was staggered. The chills when you feel sick with a cold are most similar, but Dietrinde isn’t feeling sick and isn’t cold as the summer is approaching.

However, at the same time as the chills, the word “Border Gate” flashed in my mind, and I knew what happened to Dietrinde. There are those who try to get into the border gate without obtaining permission from Aube. It was felt only by the lords who supply magic power to the foundational magic.

After the death of Aub Ahrensbach, the border gate cannot be closed from the Ahrensbach side. And there is only one gate in Ahrensbach that can be invaded without any contact from the knight guarding the gate. It is a border gate connected to the border gate on the sea.

“I will return to my room right away. Martina asks me to prepare for the equestrian clothes and the veil. It looks like I have to look at the border gate. Please gather the aides.”

Dietrinde stood up with Kotori and pen. A clerk who is surprised at the sudden abandonment of a sign says “You, do not disturb.”

“I wonder if I couldn’t hear my words? You have to look at the border gate. Maybe the messenger of Lanzenave.”

The civilian who responded to the word Lanzenave’s messenger hurriedly left the room with documents that had been processed and processed quickly. Probably report to Ferdinand. The civil servants are fully consulted with Ferdinand regarding their work. Doing so, no one can refuse even if the royal family gives a strange order.

Talking about the incompetence of the civil servants in mind, Dietrinde returned to his room, changing into the cavalry clothes that Martina’s side had brought urgently. I got a veil to avoid the sun and immediately went to the balcony.

The blue shining sea surface is spreading out of sight. Dietrinde runs a cavalry towards a black object that is about to enter the border gate, which can only be seen with the naked eye.

There were already Ferdinand and Knights on board the beast. Ferdinand has not yet provided any magical power to the foundational witchcraft, so it should have been unable to detect the intruder. However, the reason why I arrived before Dietrinde was because it took me a long time to change into a cavalry outfit.

“Deatlinde, isn’t the ship coming in from that gate surely the one of Lanzenave? It’s a form I’ve never seen …”

“Yeah, the shape of the Lanzenave ship has changed like that since last year. It’s an unfamiliar shape, but it seems that it has started much faster.”

Dietrinde looks down on the unusually shaped ship while answering Ferdinand. Although it is completely different in size, it looks like a long black fish. Last year’s messenger said at the welcome feast that it was the result of considering the length so that it could pass through the border gate and load as much as possible.

“Look at it. When you go through the gate, it changes strangely.”

Almost at the same time as Dietrinde pointed, the ship that had completely gone through the gate and proceeded to the sea toward the harbor stopped once at sea. And the ship begins to turn silver while showing the movements of the patter and small tiles rotating.

“What are you doing for?”

“I don’t know what kind of effect it is, but it seems to be a necessary treatment for the messenger of Lanzenave to stay.

Dietrinde taught Ferdinand, who had never seen a Lanzenave ship, what he knew. It was a little pleasant to know about Ferdinand, who gathered the support of the civilian and worked as if Arlensbach’s Aube.

“The ship arrives at the port, then comes to the castle and is offered an admiration, given permission and a welcoming banquet. It still takes days. I knew it was a Zenave, so let’s go back to the castle. “

“Mr. Dietrinde, please go back. I didn’t think there was a knight at the border gate, and it wasn’t easy to allow the invasion of people from other countries. Knights are also monitored. “

Dietrinde blinked with Ferdinand’s words. I don’t know what he is saying. Only the Lanzenaves come through this gate. And the messenger of Lanzenave has already arrived. Is it necessary to place a knight on the empty sea?

“It’s on the sea where nothing is, and the messenger has already arrived? There is no point in being wary of Lanzenave, who does not have much magical power.”

“From now on, ships will be transferred one after another for trade, so isn’t it necessary to watch? …… Chief Knight, please distribute knights immediately to the border gate”

“Huh! How many people do you need?”

Ferdinand ignores Dietrinde’s words and speaks to the knights, and the knights start deciding to execute the command immediately. Dietrinde couldn’t help thinking that the two who ignored themselves seemed angry.

“I’m back!”

“Die Linde, if you can predict when the banquet will be welcoming from the usual progress, please make arrangements there”

Ferdinand keeps his back to Dietrinde and begins to run the beast to the border gate with the knight leader and his entourage.

When Dietrinde returned to his room with his entourage while getting angry with the attitude of being too distracted, he began to make arrangements for a welcome party according to Ferdinand’s words.

“Please wait. Who are you listening to? Who are your Lords?”

“Deatrinde, we are not moving with Ferdinand’s orders. We are moving for Dietrinde. We must be ready for a banquet to welcome the messenger of Lanzenave. For example, if the next Aub, Dietrinde, is awkward, it will be taken by other countries. “

Dietrinde reaffirmed the side servant who said he was working for Dietrinde without Ferdinand’s orders. That’s true. Side servants can’t mark Dietrinde.

“Let me go.”

When Dietlinde waved lightly to prepare to greet Lanzenave’s messenger, the entourage began to move. Meanwhile, Martina brought a letter.

“There seems to be a story from Dietrinde and Georgine”

“Mom ?? That ’s another story. I do n’t like it.”

Even if other people say that it is the next aub or the next zent, Dietrinde, who has not yet been confirmed in either position, can not go out above his mother, Georgine. You can’t refuse Georgine’s visit even if you hate it.

When I gave permission without permission, it seemed that preparations had already been made, and Georgine arrived in less time. As soon as he exchanges greetings, he presents a magic tool to prevent eavesdropping.

The moment the Dietrinde picks up the magic tool, the expected content pops out of Georgine’s red lips.

“Will Dietlinde and Ferdinand give you a hidden room yet? If you don’t arrange it before the funeral, you will be reprimanded.”

“But it’s like giving a hidden room during the engagement … Isn’t your mother too bad?”

As long as you can’t make a hidden room in your room, if you want to give Ferdinand a hidden room, you’ll be in the husband’s room. It is impossible to give a husband’s room to a man who has not been married. A man who is not her husband will always be on the bed of Dietrinde. It’s like inviting a man into a bag before giving a ceremony.

Ferdinand is Dieterin’s fiancé who intends to cancel his engagement if he gets Glutlisheit and becomes Zent. Moreover, he is a man who has been in the temple. I can’t trust it very much. When something common in the temple happens to Dietrinde, it is Dietrinde who gave the room that says that there is no mouth from the surroundings. It is not the king who ordered.

“But if you don’t give a hidden room, you will have to return Ferdinand to Ehrenfest. That is not possible in the current situation of Ahrensbach.”

Georgine’s dark green eyes show no feelings, even though the real daughter is addressed to the lord candidate as if he was in the lower territory’s temple by the king’s order and made a relay aub . I was a little worried about Dietrinde’s chastity, or expected to be angry with the insane king that was too unreasonable, but the small hope was only crushed again. Dietrinde takes a little gaze away from Georgine, praising herself, even though she knows it is useless to expect.

…… But if you become a Zent …

Then, you may see yourself a little in the eyes of your mother. When Dietrinde became the next candidate for Zent, ​​Georgine was pushed back for the first time, “Are you aiming for Zent?

“Give as soon as possible. Because the Lanzenave messenger has arrived, there is not much time until the funeral in summer.”

“I hope that King Traokvar does not make an insane kingship with Ahrensbach, but shuts down the lower Ehrenfest with the king …”

Why should the higher-ranking Arensbach take the insane king’s order? If you put up with it, you should use Ehrenfest.

“Errenfest has taken some steps to push through the insane king’s life. No matter how insane, the king’s life is the king’s king. Ahrensbach will be reprimanded ”

Dietrin depresses Georgine’s words. If you can only get reprimand and do not have to give up a room, isn’t it better? At the very least, my safety is guaranteed. Georgine became amazed as he saw the idea of ​​Dietrinde.

“Dietlinde, the only thing the king was commanded was to give a hidden room. Isn’t it better to give Ferdinand a separate room in the west?”

west away is where there are rooms for second and third wife. Dietrinde never thought of giving a room away to the west for Ferdinand, who came as a spouse of a female aub. If you are away from the west, you will be treated as one of your spouses. Dietrinde rejoiced that he thought a little about himself.

“If there was a nice idea to give a room to the west, I should have told you earlier …”

When Dietrinde was sweet and swollen, Georgine lifted his red lips slowly and smiled, “It was just the best time for me.” After all, there was no figure of Dietrinde in the dark green eyes.

While giving up as usual, Dietrinde told Ferdinand that he would give West a room away at dinner. “In addition to preparing for the funeral, when you are busy meeting Lanzenave ’s messenger, will you move your room away from the main building to the west?” However, Ehrenfest wanted the hidden room, and the king ordered it. Dietrinde himself does not want to give Ferdinand a hidden room.

“If you don’t need it, give yourself an opinion on King Traokvar. I just followed the king’s life.”

“We will move to the funeral in summer. Thank you for your special consideration.”

Ferdinand says so with a gentle smile as usual. Dietrinde finished the meal, thinking that it would have been better if he was a little older and was born and raised and had no stigma of being in the temple.

And the news that Lanzenave’s messenger has entered the building where he stays, a letter of request for a visit arrives, and the inside of the castle becomes busy with a welcome banquet and preparations for a thrill.

On the day of the welcome party, preparations must begin in the afternoon. It takes time to take a snack, take a bath, and change clothes. Dietrinde wears a thin white outfit that has a high collar and completely hides the entire body other than the face, and then wears a blue outerwear with magnificent embroidery. The white costume is embroidered with a magic circle to keep the heat down, and it can relieve the heat a little. Without it, you can’t wear a thick blue jacket.

“It’s a pity that adults have to raise their hair. Dietrinde’s blonde is very gorgeous and beautiful.”

The side servants say that they tie their hair up. In addition, wear a thin lace veil to hide your face. Veil fabrics can be chosen according to personal preference, but veil is a must-have item for Ahrensbach women when they enter the official venue.

When you are ready, Dietrinde and his entourage head to the hall with a feeling of tension and exhilaration. Until last year, he was a minor, so he was sent off just by greeting. This is the first time to attend the welcoming party.

Every year, the welcoming banquet is relatively small. And when Gibe in the territory gathered for the star-knotted ritual that takes place during the summer season, a banquet for the exchange of Lanzenave messenger and Gibe will be held again and again. .

“Dietlinde was here”

Among them, there were already Arensbach’s heavyweights, Ferdinand and their entourage. Beside Ferdinand there is a figure of a young Letizia and his entourage. Last year, I was sent off with Letizia, but this year I can go to the end. With a little sense of superiority, Dietrinde saw Letizia.

In the hall, all the women wear a veil, and the men wrap a thin, large piece of cloth around the top and bottom of the white collar. Although it was Arlensbach’s summer outfit, only Ferdinand was wearing the color of the territory of Ehrenfest, while everyone was wearing the precious color of summer. The color that should indicate that it is another territory makes Ferdinand look like a ruler on the spot.

“Oh, Ferdinand is not a precious summer color”

“I was happy to wear the precious colors of summer, but by wearing the colors of Ehrenfest, I was able to understand at a glance that even if I had various opinions, I had no decision I thought it was better. ”

Talked with a gentle smile, Dietrinde whispered while remembering somewhere. Ordinarily, you should wear the same color as everyone in Ahrensbach, not the lower Ehrenfest. I decided that I dare to wear the color of Ehrenfest because of Ferdinand’s humble attitude.

“Lanzenave, admission”

The side serving at the door shouted. Lanzenave messengers enter in line from the wide open door. Lanzenave messenger also wears Arensbach’s costume. I’ve heard that Lanzenave has a different climate from Ahrensbach, so it’s hard to spend it here.

However, they did not wear blue, the noble color of summer. She wears a rare silver cloth to show that she is the messenger of Lanzenave.

Twelve messengers entered the hall. About half of them have the same atmosphere as ours, but the other half has different facial features and skin color. I see it every year, and why it looks so different, Dietrinde is strange and unavoidable.

It was a man who was two or three years older than Dietrinde who stepped forward from the messenger and whispered while crossing his arms. Dietrinde was drawn to the appearance of a young and beautiful messenger. I shouldn’t have been there last year because I don’t remember.

Middle hair between gold and maroon is gathered behind and fastened with a barrette. It was a man’s hairstyle that was popular in Ahrensbach during the generation of Dietrinde’s grandmother. Even now, some older men have their hair tied with their backs, so Dietrinde was relatively familiar.

“First of all, Arensbach, my name is Leonzio, the grandson of King Chiafredo of Lanzenave. Before introducing others, I was led by the pure flow of the goddess of water, Fruthrene. Please allow me to pray for blessings in good encounters. “

“… I forgive you”

I never thought I could greet the messenger of Lanzenave as a nobleman. Dietrinde is surprised and gives forgiveness.

Leonzio puts a ring with a magic stone on the middle finger of his left hand, just like the Jurgenschmitt nobility. A ring with a magic stone of all attributes showed his status as a royal family.

Leonardo gives a soft blessing and says “Let me know you later”.

… Oh?

When Leonzio raised his face, he looked at Ferdinand and showed a surprised expression for a moment. It was a face that looked like an unbelievable person, though it immediately hid under the smile. Glance at the Ferdinand scene. Ferdinand seems to have nothing in particular.

Leonzio introduced the messenger with a smile as if there was no surprise at all. More than half are those who came last year. Only Leonzio and his associates visited Ahrensbach for the first time.

After the introduction of Lanzenave’s messenger, the Arensbach family will be introduced. Georgine and Letizia will be introduced after the death of the former Aube and the introduction of Dietrinde in the position of the next Aub and Ferdinand from Ehrenfest as his fiancée.

Once the introduction is over, it will be time for a chat. Minors are time to leave. Letizia left with his aides and became adult time. Trade officials and those who want to buy political information approach the Lanzenave messenger with a cup of liquor in hand and talk about it. It’s a prelude to a meeting at a later date

“Ferdinand, aren’t you talking?”

“There aren’t many opportunities to be next to Dietrinde. Now that I’m busy with work and I don’t have time, …”

Dietrinde whispered to Ferdinand who smiled and said he wanted to be on his side. I haven’t seen many of them recently, and I felt like I was being dismissed, but it seemed to be due to my busyness.

Didn’t know that Ferdinand was next to watch over the messenger of Lanzenave, and Dietrinde humbly kissed Martina’s drink.

“I would like to ask Dietrinde, the next Aub”

Leonzio came and asked when the princess of Lanzenave was accepted.

“You should ask at the meeting, but you should inform Lanzenave as soon as possible.”

It seems that a letter is sent to a ship that comes and goes for trade. Certainly, it is better to inform as soon as possible. If Jurgenschmitt isn’t willing to accept it, but Lanzenave is getting ready. Looking up to Leonzio’s scarlet eyes, Dietrinde smiled with a smile.

“The princess of Lanzenave is unacceptable. Please let Lanzenave know as soon as possible. It’s hard to be prepared.”

“… Eh? Please wait. Why can’t you accept the princess?”

“Why are you saying … That’s the decision of King Traokvar”

Dietrinde tells the flow of the lord meeting in memory. It seems that Ferdinand, who was standing next to her, supplemented her refusal to accept the princess.

Leonzio who was stunned shakes his head lightly and reaches for Dietrinde. Ferdinand knocked it down.

“Leonzio, please calm down. If you are so excited, you have to leave it to an escort knight.”

The intimidating atmosphere in a quiet voice seems to have been transmitted to Leonzio, and Leonzio immediately suppresses his emotions. With a gentle smile, Leonzio confronted Ferdinand.

“Is the king of Jürgenschmitt going to destroy Lanzenave? If you don’t want to do that, please accept the princess”

Unable to understand that not accepting the princess leads to the destruction of Lanzenave, Dietrinde leaned. Ferdinand breaks away with a cold smile before asking what it means.

“Unfortunately we can’t help you because Zent has decided”

ランツェナーヴェの事情を聞こうともせず、あまりにもバッサリと切ってしまうフェルディナンドの姿勢にディートリンデはレオンツィオが可哀想になってしまった。

「フェルディナンド様、そのようにおっしゃらなくてもよいでしょう。ランツェナーヴェの事情を伺って、もう一度トラオクヴァール王にお願いしてみれば違う答えが返ってくることもあるかもしれません」

ディートリンデの言葉にレオンツィオは少し安堵したように肩の力を抜いた。けれど、フェルディナンドはそれが面白くないようで、冷たい顔のままレオンツィオを見つめる。

「ツェントが前言を撤回することはないでしょう。……ツェントが代替わりした後、新しいツェントにお伺いを立てるのが妥当なところではございませんか?」

決してランツェナーヴェに親身になるような姿勢はちらりとも見せず、切り捨てるようなフェルディナンドの言い分にディートリンデは苛立ちを感じる。大事な貿易相手なのだから、もう少し親身になってツェントとランツェナーヴェの橋渡しをするべきではないだろうか。アーレンスバッハにある国境門しか開いていない以上、ランツェナーヴェはユルゲンシュミットにとって唯一の貿易相手なのだ。

ディートリンデはフェルディナンドに対してツンと顔を逸らすと、レオンツィオに向けてできるだけ優しく微笑んだ。アーレンスバッハから働きかけてツェントの意見を変えることはできないかもしれないけれど、当人が事情を話して、真摯にお願いすれば受け入れてくれるかもしれない。トラオクヴァールは常識外れの王なのだから。

「レオンツィオ様。幸いなことに、この夏はアウブの葬儀のために王族がアーレンスバッハを訪れます。その際にもう一度お願いしてみてはいかがでしょう?」

「ディートリンデ様」

フェルディナンドが「何を言い出すのですか?」と驚愕の顔になった。何故そのように驚くのか、ディートリンデにはわからない。

「警備の都合上、王族にそのような者を近付けるわけにはまいりません。アウブの葬儀の折に、ランツェナーヴェの者を王族に近付けるような行いは許可できません」

「それを決めるのはフェルディナンド様ではなく王族ですし、わたくしは貴方に許可を得なければならない立場ではありません。アーレンスバッハとしても、大事な貿易相手であるランツェナーヴェが滅ぶということは避けなければならないのですもの。わたくし、レオンツィオ様にお話を伺いたく存じます」

「聞く必要はございません」

ディートリンデは自分の意見を次々と却下して、ちっともこちらの意見を受け入れようとしないフェルディナンドに今度こそ完全に腹を立てた。フェルディナンドにはきっちりと立場の違いを思い知らせなければならない。

「わたくしは話を聞くと言っているのです。フェルディナンド様は邪魔しないでくださいませ。側近は付けるので、心配などいりません。いくらわたくしをゲドゥルリーヒのように思っていても、エーヴィリーベのような嫉妬は見苦しくてよ」

ディートリンデが睨むと、フェルディナンドは驚いたように薄い金色の目を見開いて動きを止めた。どうやら「エーヴィリーベのような嫉妬」というのが図星をついていたようだ。

……嫉妬で我を忘れるなんて、フェルディナンド様も困ったこと。

ディートリンデは「エーヴィリーベの同席はいりません」とフェルディナンドの同席を拒み、レオンツィオと話をするために側近達をぞろぞろと引き連れて個室へ向かう。フェルディナンドの側近が一人、「何の間違いもなかったことを報告するために」と同席を願ったので、ディートリンデは寛大な心で許可を与えた。
