65 5. To The Kingdom Of Lapis Lazuli
The carriage journey went well and the Tiara Roses made it to the Kingdom of Lapis Lazuli safely.
First go to the royal castle and say hello.
"Wow... I miss you"
Escorted by Aquasteed, Tiara Rose gets off the carriage.
Tiara Rose looked up at the beautiful Royal Castle of Lapis Lazuli as she felt the sun shine to welcome her.
In a pale blue building, a staircase leading inside. The knights line up on both sides, and the acari rush down delightfully between them.
"Dear Tiara! Welcome!
"Dear Acari,"
"You're as good as ever..."
Tiara Rose waves toward the acari, even as she is harassed if she doesn't fall. "It's been a while," Tiara Rose grins, too.
Beautiful black hair and eyes. Adorable face and trendy dress with ribbon. This is the heroine of the maiden game Lapis Lazuli's Ring, which deals with holy prayers.
"Miss Acari, you look well and most importantly. Congratulations on your marriage to Prince Haltnites."
"Congratulations, Dear Acari. I'm so happy to be able to attend the ceremony."
"Dear Aqua, Dear Tiara, Thank you. I, too, am very excited about the ceremony. Take your time."
After a brief greeting, Akali will guide you to your room "This way".
"I prepared a lot of delicious treats! Dear Tiara, Olivia has already arrived here, so we'll have a girls' party at night!
"Eh."
It's the first time I've ever heard of a sorority. I wonder what Tiara Rose will do, but if Olivia is there, I think it would be convenient to introduce Lilliage, who is pretending to be a stuffed animal.
Aquasteed gives up his look slightly and says, "You should like Tiara".
"Nevertheless, don't let me force you too much because Tiara is tired of moving the carriage all the time"
"I know! If anything, I will heal you in holy prayer."
"It's not."
Humph and proud acari, Aquasteed breathed heavily.
Tiara Rose grins next door, too, but if you can eat sweets a little too much... I'm thinking about it, but I can't tell Aquasteed that, not very much.
After a short walk while we chat, we arrive in the room.
We're a couple, so we're in one room at Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. Filine and Elliott were also given separate rooms to allow free time until dinner, where they had a face-to-face meeting with the royalty of Lapis Lazuli.
The rooms provided are equipped with reception, main room, bedroom and bathroom.
The white and sepia-based interior is calm and looks like you can stay calm during your stay in Lapis Lazuli.
Out on the balcony you can admire the gardens where the roses bloom. While I'm amused by its beauty, I kind of miss the lack of fairies.
- I can't believe there's no fairy, it was a natural sight.
Tiara Rose is so happy with that, thinking she's completely familiar with Marine Forest.
"Are you tired?
"Dear Aqua...... I'm fine. We have a lot to do now, so we need to get in the mood."
"Right. Something about Mr. Lilliage, and can't you afford too much time"
When you gaze indoors from the balcony, you see a relaxed lilyage on the couch. I got motion sickness because I wasn't used to traveling in the carriage, and I seem a little tired.
Next to it, he keeps the room in order to make it easier for Filine to spend time.
Elliot, who was with me until earlier, has already gone out to look for the tomb marks of Ferres' parents indicated by Lilliage.
Tarmo and a few knights I brought with me are just taking turns and hitting the guard in front of the room.
"I wish I could do something too..."
Tiara Rose, the Queen, can't go on the investigation, so she has to make love in her room. Besides, we also need people who work as royalty and take care of the liriage.
"Let's leave it to Elliot now. Tiara's gonna be ready for dinner, right? I'm going to go through the literature in the library, so be nice."
Because she is the first queen, Aquasteed decided that it would be nice to have Tiara Rose by her side. Besides, women smile at each other all the more.
"... Yes. Thank you, Master Aqua."
Dropping off Aquasteed going to the library, Tiara Rose prepares hot milk and meringue confectionery with honey for Lilliage.
"It's warm, it's sweet"
"I drink when I'm tired too."
'That's right. Sure, this is going to blow my fatigue'
While stroking Lilliage's back, I wonder if I should let Akari heal with the power of holy prayer. Lilliage sips hot milk and breathes a howl. I was a little relieved that my expression seemed to be calming down more than earlier.
When you put the meringue sweets in your mouth as well, Lilliage makes your face shine all the time.
"Tiara's treats all make you delicious and happy"
"Glad you're happy"
No more of the loose ends up earlier, and Lilliage was eating sweets fine.
At night, Tiara Rose dresses up for dinner.
The Empire line dress overlays the ribbon and lace, and the neck is accompanied by flower ornaments using ribbons of the same material. Fluffy and soft honey pink hair suits the water color of the dress well.
Escorting a tiara rose like that is an outfit aquasteed.
Fabric with thin grey lines on black ground with gold edges. The tied tie is aligned with the bow on Tiara Rose's neck.
Upon entering the dining room of the dinner party, the royalty of Lapis Lazuli was already in place.
I greeted him first on behalf of Alexander Lapislazuli Lactomut, king of Lapislazuli. He is the father of Haltnites and the one who stripped him of his throne.
"Welcome there. It's been a long time since I've seen you two. You look fine, I'm relieved. Would you be tired on the road? I've prepared a meal, so I want you to take your time."
"Thank you. Your Majesty doesn't seem to change, more importantly."
Aquasteed and Alexander exchange hands and Tiara Rose also exchange hands.
"You've become more and more beautiful while you haven't seen it, Miss Tiara Rose. If Schnaus sees it, he'll cry and be moved."
"Please don't, Your Majesty..."
Tiara Rose laughs bitterly if she can't laugh because she's going to really cry and be moved.
Then the queen greets her and soon comes forward as Akali claims herself.
Slightly dark pink dress with white stripes and ribbon. With a smile, he said, "Have you had a good, hypnotic sleep? It's a long night!" What an unforgiving thing to say.
"Acari, don't talk too much about troubling your guests"
"Dear Halt Knights!
Hartnights Lapislazuli Lactmoot, former fianc of Tiara Rose and married partner of Akari. With beautiful golden hair and blue eyes, it's the main target of this game.
"... Long time no see, Prince Aquasteed. Then, Tiara...... Dear Tiara Rose"
"Oh, it's been a while."
"Long time no see, Your Highness."
A tense air flows, just words of greeting and nothing lasts since then. A bright voice goes into my ear when Tiara Rose is worried that I should say something that cares about me.
"Sister Tiara, it's been a long time!
"Yikes! Prince Sirius!"
"Has it been three years since I've seen you like this? I was so excited about this day!
It was his brother and second prince, Sirius Lapislazuli Lactomut, the number one successor to the throne, who jumped out from behind Haltonites.
I hug Tiara Rose all the time and am very happy to see her for a long time.
So much so that when you look at a beautiful, neat face while still ten years old, you mistake it for a seemingly beautiful girl. Sirius, who laughs innocently, has clear, empty eyes in her golden hair that is only slightly lighter in pigment than Haltonites.
"It's been a long time, Your Highness. It was very growing and surprising."
"But I haven't caught up with Sister Tiara's height yet..."
"My height will be over in no time."
So tell him to rest assured, Tiara Rose stroked Sirius' head.
Alexander laughs bitterly as he sees how it goes.
"Not at all...... Sirius is very excited to meet Miss Tiara Rose. I want you to be more calm as far as I'm concerned, because I'm going to be the next king."
"No, I don't mind. I'm so glad I don't have a brother."
Besides, despite the dinner party, this place is close to the inner circle. Usually Tiara Rose also knows that Sirius is solid, so she smiles that it's no problem.
"Dear Tiara and Sirius, we were close, weren't we? I didn't know."
"I was surprised, too"
Akali put his hand on his mouth and surprised him greatly, and Aquasteed agreed with it.
"That's right," Tiara Rose nodded as she looked at the two of them.
"I had many opportunities to talk to Prince Sirius at a tea party with the queen."
"Oh, I see"
The young prince said she was attending her mother's tea party together. He called me a sister and admired Tiara Rose because she was his own brother, Haltnights' fiance.
- Oh, but you're not my sister anymore.
Halt Knights and I broke up our engagement and married under Aquasteed. Sirius himself cut it out when he thought it might not be a good idea to let him call him his sister as he was.
But you're not my sister anymore.
I miss you, Sirius tells me.
Tiara Rose unwittingly wants to tell her sister she's fine with the trick the adorable boy shows her, but she endures much more.
"... Huh!
But at the same time, Halt Knights stifled his body. If I hadn't broken my engagement, Tiara Rose would have been Sirius' sister-in-law.
Alexander opens his mouth first when he is confused that Halt Knights should say something.
"Sirius, you'll have to greet Prince Aquasteed first"
"Yes, I was."
Sirius utters his apology, saying that he was happy to see Tiara Rose, and that she hadn't.
At the same time, he bowed his head to the acari, saying he was "insensitive".
"It's okay, I don't care. Tiara is my best friend, so she's like Prince Sirius' sister."
"Dear Acari..."
Don't say anything unsolicited, Tiara Rose laughs bitterly.
"Isn't it sooo fun and happy that me and Lady Tiara are your sisters? Me, my little brother as cute as Prince Sirius is always welcome! Hey, Dear Tiara."
"Right......"
"Isn't it? For the girls' party at night, and a gift to keep...... oh, this is for later fun!
Even Alexander, not just Tiara Rose, laughs bitterly at the acari that doesn't seem to stop talking. "You're a healthy daughter-in-law, I'm glad," the only queen smiling is maybe more human than Akali.
"Dear Acari, Prince Sirius cannot greet His Highness Aquasteed like this."
"Oh, I was"
If not, Akari held her mouth down with her hands and smiled deliberately at her cheeks.
- But the atmosphere on the ground was brighter.
Prince Sirius is also relieved to see how Akali is doing.
"I'm sorry I'm late, Your Highness Aquasteed. The second prince, Sirius Lapislazuli Lactomut."
"It's Aquasteed Marine Forest. Not a very long stay, nice to meet you."
"Yes."
Shaking hands with Aquasteed, Sirius smiled happily.
The dinner party proceeded without delay and Tiara Rose stared at the dessert lined up in front of her.
I could see at a glance that the quality of dessert was much better than previous lapis lazuli. Acari must have made a dramatic evolution by staying in the royal castle and sharing her thoughts and opinions on the food.
The star of dessert is chocolate.
On a single plate, it is performed as if it were a story.
A bite-sized chiffon cake is packed inside a chocolate ball that mimics the shape of a hemisphere.
Honey, strawberry, blueberry and chocolate sauce at the end of the plate. And a striped chocolate ribbon with a two-color truffle chocolate with cocoa powder and sugar powder next to it.
Marine Forest, as well as Lapis Lazuli, are putting more effort into the look of dessert.
"What do you say, Dear Tiara! I suggested this chocolate plate."
"Very tasty, Dear Acari"
"Isn't it?
Including a bite, chocolate quickly breaks shape in your mouth.
Milk, white, bitter and various types of chocolate. Depending on who was put out, I guess seeing that combination differs is tailoring it to my tastes.
Aquasteed dishes are dominated by white and bitter chocolate.
- Master Akali has done a lot for his country.
Create a fashion for piercings and other accessories, or develop desserts. Tiara Rose is impressed by the disrespect she used to bring back to the white tower.
- That gut, I respect it a lot.
Akali is honest with himself and never says yes to anything he doesn't like.
Therefore I will not lie, but will surely do against what I said Jesus. As a result, there is a high level of trust regarding the words spoken by the acari.
I also have a big personality, and I have restored a little bit of trust and am here now.
"Sister Tiara, ah... sorry"
"It's okay, Prince Sirius. What's the matter, sir?
"Actually, Dear Tiara Rose, I would like a flower with your sister's name on it, if you don't mind."
Can't you? and Sirius stares at Tiara Rose.
The Tiara Rose flowers, which became the national flower of Marine Forest, are very beautiful. This time too, I have planted it in a pot and brought it to you that it would be a souvenir.
"Of course, Prince Sirius."
"Thank you!
When Tiara Rose agrees, Sirius laughs like a flower.
"Oh, my God, I can't believe you want flowers."
"Brother Haltnites...... That's why Sister Tiara will grab my love!
What a rarity... Sirius stares at Haltonites.
"How about your brother, too, as much as sending flowers to the woman you like?
"Ugh."
Speaking of which, I wish Halt Knights hadn't done that to me... Tiara Rose laughs bitterly.
It wasn't even a date. Was it enough to be given jewelry and other ornaments for my birthday?
- Dear Halt Knights, you told me to be nice...
Thinking it's kind of fresh to see him like this, apparently that was the same for the acari.
Akali was looking at Haltnights and Sirius with cancer, and I think I can still hear my heart saying, 'Such a delicious scene wasn't in the game, was it!!'.
"Damn, don't argue like that. Miss Tiara Rose is right in front of you..."
"Oh, I'm sorry, Sister Tiara..."
"Shh, I'm sorry..."
Two people immediately apologize to Alexander for not being ugly.
I look at Halt Knights dripping my head, and the clams shudder and laugh. Tell him that Tiara Rose doesn't care, either, and smile.
"Then Master Haltnights send me flowers"
"Oh, oh! Absolutely."
Nodding to Acari's follow-up, Haltonites also tells Tiara Rose and Aquasteed they want flowers.
"Of course you can. Hey, Your Highness Aquasteed."
"Oh."
Hearing the two replies, Halt Knights stroked his chest down as relieved as well.
The atmosphere, which was a little too dull, is completely gone, and the voice of the chatter is brighter.
Akali explains the dessert to Halt Nights, who sits next to him, and smiles that it will be delicious. I guess I don't hate Halt Knights because they also say they are "too sweet" but they eat well.
Those two seemed kind of happy, and Tiara Rose was relieved.
