The room where the lights were dropped, Uffiâs private room wrapped in the darkness of the night. The light source is about the light of the moon.
Sleeping side by side with Uffi, I focus my consciousness, which was blurred with a whispering Uffi voice.
stroking my stomach with a hand that Uffi turned to his hips to hold me in. I move into the tickle and look at Yufi so that he faces his body.
â⊠what? Yufi.â
âI thought youâd fallen asleepâ
â⊠nâ
Uffi closes his face so that he meets his forehead. If Yuffiâs exhalation approaches, her body touched by Yuffi reminds her of the pleasant heat aftertaste. He also leans from himself as he narrows his eyes to the aftertaste of a fever that hurts like a smoke.
I want to sleep terribly, but I donât think I want to sleep either. It makes me want to be touched more by Uffiâs hand and held tighter with that arm. Stuff each other at a distance with your hands turned on Uffiâs back.
âIâm sleepy⊠but I donât want to sleep. No. Iâll say goodbye when I wake upâŠâ
â⊠rightâ
We touched each other a lot today only for what we couldnât touch each other. The night stays long, extending that time. But itâs never forever.
The heat of the aftertaste gathers in my stomach and it hurts as much as I think about the impending separation. I couldnât help but reach out to Yuffiâs body.
â⊠youâre a sweetheartâ
âWhich one?
â⊠shall we divide the painâ
âHmmâŠâŠâ
âActually, Iâd like it to be sweeter.â
Yuffi unwraps the hand he was holding me against and touches me to wrap my cheek with both hands. Yuffiâs finger touches me as he crawls his finger through his temples into his ear.
Lifted to raise your gaze, you can overlap your lips. Iâm going to be paralyzed from my ear by a kiss that makes the sound of mouthing sound deliberately.
âIâll wait until you tell me.â
â⊠what?
âBecause Anis thinks youâre waiting until I tell you too. Tell me when you want to be sweet. If youâre in real trouble, Iâll help you.â
âhehe⊠whatâs thatâ
âTo shorten the construction period, because if Annis wanted, I wouldnât hesitate to use my powers.â
â⊠you canât do that, can you, Queen?
Itâs not better to use your powers for one cheaper with a queen. Besides, if I have the power to work hard on my own, I want to accomplish it myself.
Iâm the one who made Yuffi queen, even if thatâs what Yuffi wanted. I get enough from Uffi. More than that, I still know Uffi wants more.
Still, I donât like living sweet on Uffi, and even I want to spoil Uffi. Make it a little easier for Uffi to take on the heavy responsibility of becoming the king who bears the country. Because I want to create a country where I can laugh at each other with Uffi.
âAs much as you rely on it, youâll still be happy with Yuffi⊠but this is how you want Yuffi to touch me, stay with me, and shareâ
â⊠Yesâ
âLet me try harder. Itâs okay, because you canât work hard wrong. We need to ask Father and Mother first to see if we can really get people.â
âIâll turn that around here, too. Iâll let you know if thereâs any movement.â
âYeah. Then Iâll keep the groundwork. I donât care how it works, Iâll fix it first.â
Now turn your hand from me to Yuffiâs neck and mouth deep. The mouthpiece exchanged to eat each otherâs breath pulls the thread and the lips away.
Yufiâs eyes shake in the moonlight. Gu, and Ufi held hands to ride on me from the position he was facing me.
â⊠Anis, Iâm sorry. Just a little more.â
âYepâŠ?
âNo, sir?
â⊠ok. Here, go ahead.â
to Uffi looking down at me. I reached out to accept. We narrowed our eyes so Yufi wouldnât be impatient and our distance went to zero.
A month went by as early as the weekdays when life began to come and go with the new city construction site and the king capital for the holidays. Speaking of what Iâve done in the meantime, I havenât been busy working out future plans with Uncle Drags, face-to-face with Mr. Darma to discuss future construction plans, or going to comfort the knights Iâm staying with.
It was a busy but fulfilling day to report progress to Yufi, Father and Mother even back in Wang Capital. A turning point came in those days.
âHuh? That Rainiâs coming this way?
I raised my gaze toward the material in the report I received from Priscilla. Because the unexpected will come here.
âYeah, theyâre coming here as the name of Her Majesty Queen Uphilia. She said she was already leaving, so her arrival is scheduled for tomorrow. This is a letter addressed to Her Royal Highness the King.â
Unseal the letter I received from Priscilla and confirm the contents. What was written there was my long-awaited reward.
âOh, youâre talking about the extra personnel in the example. Looks like we finally decided.â
âAn example of bringing here an aristocratic bastard to shorten the construction period, or a child who cannot succeed to the position of governor?
Since then, it seems that Uffi has raised it on the agenda with the help of his father and mother, whether there are any people in Wang Capital who can be sent to my city plan to proceed.
However, he still didnât react well. Although the profits involved in planning a new city are fascinating, no one magically tries to imitate the architect.
So why donât you let the bastards of the nobility, or the children who wonât be able to succeed to their duties as governors, work here? A suggestion was made that
They reacted in half, both yes and no, to this must. It was a statement to the effect that people had been dispatched who had accepted that they would finally come this way, although I knew the debate had been overlapping since then.
Is Raini coming as Yufiâs nominee because we have Uncle Drags?
âItâs a pleasure, but itâs a shame.â
âHmm?â
âI was hoping to see the new invention of His Royal Highness King Anisphere, who sparked the revolution.â
â⊠thatâs what you were expecting? Me.â
âYep. But look forward to another opportunity.â
What a gripping smile, Priscilla, that expression struck me oddly.
Later, I told Uncle Drags that Raini was coming too and he was happy. I think itâs a good thing that we have the opportunity to meet each other in this way, even though we work.
Tomorrow afternoon. Reports came in that the carriage in which Raini rode had arrived at the Count Cyanâs house just as the sun rose.
âCountess Cyan has arrived, Your Highness.â
âI get it. Shall we go, Navre, Charne?â
âHere you go.â
âYes!â
It seems that Raini has already been put through to the Countâs reception, and I also took Navre and Charne, accompanying him today, to the reception.
If you knock and wait for a response, Uncle Drags will give you permission to enter the room. Raini was sitting in a white dress when I opened the door and let him in. There was also Ilia beside it, which made my eyes a little rounded. Youâre all here, these two.
And one girl was holding back behind Rainiâs sitting seat. The appearance drapes the silver hair of a loose wave of habit all the way to her chest, a girl who gets the impression that itâs because of her sleepy yellow-green eyes.
What Iâm wearing is a simple one-piece dress, and I get the impression that the costume is more of a loss to her appearance. Thatâs all he looked like.
âDear Anis, good jobâ
âLaini is the one, good luck. Is that your kid?
âYes. Let me introduce you first, Mr. Monica. Please.â
Monica, the girl Raini urged me to step forward. After a glimpse of my face, I bow my head deeply.
âMy name is Monica. I donât have a family name, I look forward to seeing Her Royal Highness the King today.â
âMonica. Welcome, uh, you donât have a family nameâŠâ
Basically, even civilians have family names. It is the orphans and those who have abandoned their homes who are said not to exist. Monica answered with a slight distortion of her mouth as if she was one of those.
âIâm a bastard. Mother and father have cut off the edge. My mother died at an early age, and I have nothing to prove, so I canât prove it to her bloodstream.â
âHmmmâŠâŠ? So, have you ever lived as a civilian?
âYes. After my mother died, I went into the orphanage, so I worked as I was in the orphanage. This fitness test has paved the way for the wizard, and I hope to work under Her Royal Highness Sister Wang.â
â⊠hmm? aptitude test?â
What the hell are you talking about? I turn my eyes around. Then Raini laughs bitterly and raises his hand.
âWell, I didnât dare tell Master Anis because it was a mess in the Wang capital, but there was a little commotion.â
Visit wuxiaworld.eu for extra chapters.
â⊠disturbance?
âWe talked about whether His Majesty the Predecessor could arrange for the bastards of the nobility or the children of the second and subsequent generations who would not hold office in order to send a wizard to build a new city, to the point where the debate was prolonged, right?
âYeah. I heard thatâŠâ
âSo thatâs it. Did you even have a picture of the future where you want to surround yourself with some kind of position in the future?â
âRight.â
âAs a result of talking about the concept, there was a protest or a plea from each side. Mostly from the Ministry of Magic.â
âMinistry of Magic? Protest or plea?
⊠I donât know, Iâve got a really bad feeling about it.
âTo put it bluntly, you complain that His Royal Highness the King of Anisphere is only cunning.â
â⊠Yes?
Rainiâs words made me want to overhear it and I got zero strange voices. Instead it was Ilia who answered.
âThe Ministry of Magic is very understaffed right now. Even if you waited for an educated graduate in college, thatâs still not enough. So I complained that if His Royal Highness the King of Anisphere were to secure the human resources proposed by His Royal Highness, we would have the right to bring in the human resources.â
âUgh, yeah.â
âThen the Ministry of Spirituality and then we started hitchhiking, and then the Knights and I both gave each other a name.â
â⊠Huh?
âThe children that Lady Anisphere tried to bring in were troublesome positions that were difficult to treat both nobles and civilians. But Master Anisphere was enlightened in his magic, and there must have been a change of mind in the way he saw magic, in the way he was aristocratic. If you are going to be able to use people, how about sending people to each desired organization with only short-term professional education in the future? to the story.â
âYepâŠ?
Oh, what. So youâre telling me thatâs the only way I can get people to be smart, and thatâs what happened to people?
âThe Ministry of Magic can help, so you complained in tears that if we were to use magic, we would teach ourselves. When the Spirit Ministry actively takes it away if anyone has literacy in the arts and culture. They want them to carry out cultural inheritance and development. For that reason, I insisted that we should create a new, dedicated title frame and leave it behind, so that those who are not educated as aristocrats would be fine. And I even thrilled to say that the story is a chance to take back into the country the potential wizards that are scattered around the wild.â
âHehâŠâ
âSo the noble house that wanted to have ties with the provinces tried to send non-trail children to us first, and as adventurers we saw moves such as rushing down to the field to pick up the common people, so before there was confusion, it became a major policy to let the hopeful re-examine their magical suitability with one voice, and to allocate talent to the workplace of hope and to the appropriate workplaceâŠâ
Wow, thatâs kind of awesomeâŠ?
âBy the way, His Majesty the King had his head. Even His Majesty the Predecessor told us that he had not expected it from a boulder. By the way, I couldnât be interested in my hobby for a while because I was smiling and pushed to work by Master Uphilia.â
âFatherâŠâŠ ugh!
Too patheticâŠâŠ! What the hell did your father doâŠ! Itâs my fault! Iâm sorry, Father! But heâs my father!
âThatâs why. At present, we are very busy in Wangdu to re-examine magical aptitude, grasp and manage those who wish to, and use this as an opportunity to organize their household registry, even if they may not go to nobility.â
ââŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ something, Iâm sorry?
âNo, Master Anis is not bad at allâŠâ
âIt must have been a problem that I had to get my hands on someday. Iâm just saying itâs now.â
Well, since your fatherâs generation, itâs been a problem for noble bastards to descend on civilians and become adventurers, or, in terrible times, to be victimized by robbers. I have heard that children born in the care of common and aristocratic people are never raised in a very good environment.
It can also be a hand in saving children in such a non-remunerated environment, and the country can regain potential talent. I can be noble, or I canât guarantee I can go back, but I might open the way.
I was talking to Yufi about how it would be nice to build a school for civilians, but it would take a reasonable amount of time if we were to educate all civilians. This wasnât the kind of story that would solve it immediately either.
I would have been in a hurry, but it didnât seem to me that this was a bad thing as far as the previous stage was concerned. I donât think the people of Wangdu are the same place.
â⊠well, isnât there a lot of hope? And thereâs only one?
âYep. There were many nobles who would definitely recommend my son to Her Royal Highness Sister Wang, but I was in charge of the interview and played mostly.â
âHuh? Did you play it?
âIf it is to be the person to send to Anis, it should be carefully selectedâŠ. Some of them were targeted by Anis, so the scrutiny became more severe.â
âAim for me?⊠you mean assassination?
Thatâs not a serene story, so Raini shook her neck left and right with a subtle look on her face.
âNoâŠ. Itâs the mistress of Ennis.â
â⊠Huh?
I was surprised to return the gavel a lot earlier. What, mistress? Whatâs next!?
âOf course, itâs not what the kid wanted or anything, itâs awesome! Thatâs the story. Itâs primarily the thoughts of parents. Because Anis thinks that girls are in love. There are a lot of nobles out there who tried to send you on foot that you donât even have to go to paedophiles to be picked up like me or Ilia!
âSo Raini was in charge of the interview, so I played a nobleman with those thoughts, but there were too many of them. Then it seems that Master Uphilia also thought that we would have to carefully select them and educate them and then dispatch them if necessaryâŠâ
â⊠Iâm sorry about something?
I donât think Rainiâs doing so much more work because of me, that. Uh, I mean, the honey trap I was after almost sent a girl⊠no, I still donât like it when all of a sudden a guy talks to me. So if youâre a girl, you canât be anybody!?
And even Ilia and Raini didnât accept it unconditionally, shallow or whateverâŠ
âHowever, the only reason why you canât send people out at all is because Anis is in trouble. It was Monica who gave permission to send them out.â
âShe had a high degree of aptitude for the magic of soil and water, so I think she would be very suitable as an architectural assistant and then a human resource to work in water relations.â
âI appreciate that!
Thatâs not the kind of person I need right now to get my hands off my throat! Hey, it was just a surprise story, but this is good news.
It was me who was so happy that I was about to make a small leap, but Rainiâs expression turned into something only slightly nervous.
â⊠and Monica really wanted to work under Anis.â
â⊠Reason?
âLet me put that out of my mouth, Lady Rainiâ
Monica lays down her eyes and reassembles her hands in front. It also looked as if it was a sinner confessing his sins from now on.
â⊠I am the heir to the blood of the executed Earl of Chartreuse.â
