â⌠Together, the story goes out of line a lot but communicates the rest of the decision. Anisphere, itâs Uphilia. I give you my life.â
âKingâs life, is it?
âMm-hmm. Either way, you canât 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.â
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, itâs a pleasure for me that Father appreciates magic.
â⌠itâs Anisâ
âYes.â
âI asked for it.â
Thatâs all, really enough.
I thank my father deeply. Whatever the consequences, now Iâm 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 everyoneâs taking care of me. I guess Iâll just have to grow up a little bit in the future. Even in the sense of reassuring.
âLetâs make sure we can meet with the spiritual contractors in our country soonâ
âThank you!
âUhmâŚ. but because Iâm 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?
âYes! Of course it is!
Thereâs plenty to do. Letâs first formally request the Ministry of Magic to disclose the materials. Heh heh, we have a royal life here! The kingâs life! The kingâs 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 didnât really think it was a good idea for me to poke, so I was deciding to be static, hmm. I was wondering if Iâd bite a bit to get the dossier out.
âUphilia, may I have a moment?
Yes, my queen.
When I was talking to my father, Uffi was taken by my mother and left the roomâŚâŚ. Iâm just curious because thereâs something Iâve been talking about. havenât 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 boulderâŚâŚ!
âG, Lord GrantsâŚâŚâ
âPrincess Anisphere. Can I talk to you for a second?
â⌠Yesâ
âI donât want you to be hard on yourself. Itâs about Yufi.â
âYesâŚâŚâ
This is scaryâŚâŚ! Itâs so intimidatingâŚâŚ! No, the signs arenât that harsh, but I still have pressure on my eyes just to be normal. My eyes are too strong.
âWhen she said she didnât want you to be king, she replied that she was loyalâŚ. I couldnât help but laugh.â
â⌠Yes?
âThat 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.â
âHa⌠what is that?
âThe blood muscles of my Magenta family, once burned, until later burned outâŚ. Please, thank my daughter againâ
âWhat!? What!? What do you mean, Lord Grants!?â
How can they laugh at such fun and leave disturbing words behind!? Thatâs what the Magenta family is all about!?
Or donât really leave. Why are you laughing and leaving! Lord Grants, Lord Grants!?
âFather up!? What the hell does that mean?!?â
â⌠the history of the Duke of Magenta family is old. You know that too.â
âOh, thatâs no moreâ
âRemember 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 youâre stubborn.â
â⌠what is that?
âI canât get my head up on Grants, because⌠heâs my best friend and my brotherâs kind of opponent. Iâve been taking care of you for a long time.â
âAt the time, I gathered around His Majesty Orphans as the ruler of the rugged kingdom of Palletia, but I didnât go sailing smoothly.â
âHead 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?
âHis Majesty Orphans is somewhat hard-working and has gentle sexual roots. Besides once it sinks in, itâs muddy. Ha ha ha, how many times Lord Grants was yelling at me and slapping me in the butt!
âMatthew! You!
âBesides, I came next door with Master Silphine. I miss you even when you couldnât stay weak, Your Majesty.â
âThat kind of thing was used by Grants and Silphine with their jaws!
âIt was more peaceful than His Majesty, who had been slapped in the butt and stirred up with pneumonia.â
Oh, itâs 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, hmmâŚâŚ
âWhat 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.â
âHa haâŚâ
âIf this is a same-sex opponent, I would settle into a pattern like a good friend or brother, like His Majesty and Lord GrantsâŚâ
â⌠hmm?
â⌠Uphiliaâs loyalty has a strong color of affection, unlike his own. I mean, you wanted to say it wasnât just loyalty. Grants is.â
Ha, and sigh and father rubs his eyebrows looseâŚ. after all, is that what theyâre looking at you for?! or even from your parents, yuffi!?
âAs a Princess Anisphere, donât you wish or fulfill?
âNo, no, no!⌠I did say girls are good for a long time!
âWhat is it, is it not clear?â
â⌠Isnât that strange? Normally, I thought theyâd never come out the same way.â
I wondered if there would be a concubine or something! Thatâs not true! Itâs kind of like a pet, and I donât think love means anything! So honestly, itâs unrealistic.
Ugh, uhh, roaring, then I turned my gaze to one of my dependents in shame.
âRaini!â
âHih. Hey, what is it?
â⌠Doesnât Ufi feel like thatâs just loyaltyâŚ?
â⌠Dear Anisâ
Why are you looking at such a pathetic creature, Raini? Stop, stop that raw, warm gaze!
âThatâs not what Iâm saying. I recommend that you discuss this with Master Uphilia.â
âDuh, I donât know what to look likeâŚâ
Raini, your father sent me a seemingly pathetic gaze. I canât solve it.
Donât slap me on the shoulder with a bitter smile, Captain Sprout Knights. Itâs breaking my heart.
âYes, women are brave!
Iâve tried to worry about it since I got back out of the palace, but I donât get an answer. I didnât confess to Yuffi in the first place, and I didnât confess from me.
Though they did say something like a proposal, and they also said they donât mind devoting their whole lives! If you hadnât told me you still were, we wouldnât have established the facts!
So if youâre bored, you just have to ask him directly! So if thatâs not what you mean, then thatâs fine!⌠maybe.
No, no, but what if even Uffi still feels halfway and doesnât know which way to fall? Doesnât that make you awkward? Me. No, but itâs honestly awkward as it is nowâŚ
Ha!? Kuh, my thoughts are twisted againâŚâŚ this doesnât suit me! Repeat! Women are brazen! You just have to hit it and smash it!
â⌠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 sheâs visited from me.
Hey, did you fall asleep? Yufi sleeps well, so I might just go to bed at night. âCause he looks like an honorable student, and he doesnât seem to be mad at Ilia all night long or anything like meâŚâŚ
â⌠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 donât know anymore. No!
I donât know what I donât know. I wonât leave you behind! Ask Uffi the answer and youâll see! Think afterwards! The second repetition! Woman! Breast!
âHa, Iâm coming in!
âEh.â
When I entered the room before waiting for Yuffiâs 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!
â⌠heh, hehâŚ!
âWow⌠they laughedâŚ!
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!
âTell me and Iâll open it⌠Welcome, Dear Anisâ
âUgh, yeah.â
âGo ahead, next door.â
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 shouldnât want to bother youâŚâŚ!
âOh, did I wake you?
âNo. I was still blind. Itâs not like thereâs tea here in Aniseâs roomâŚâ
âYes, fineâŚ. next door, sit down.â
Take your breath and never sit next to Uffi with your will. Itâs no less comfortable than the bed in my room. It seems true to say itâs before bed, and Yuffiâs hair is usually tied down with a half-up as well.
There is no agitation in Yufiâs expression. Rather, as usual as I float, I even feel my guts shrivel. I canât beat you! I donât know what Iâm gonna lose, but Iâm not gonna lose!
â⌠do you care that much? What the Queen told me.â
âUgh.â
Itâs going to be broken at the opening. Rather broken. My nose was frustrated and my guts shriveled.
â⌠you feel sorry for me?
âNo. I think Master Anis has a weakness in the crowd too⌠I think sheâs cute, donât you?
â⌠Iâve never seen Uffi say heâs cute.â
Itâs been a freak, weirdo, weirdo, three beats before. No, Iâm not really complimented. Iâve always been told to disqualify royaltyâŚ
â⌠Isnât Uffi annoying? Well, thatâs what youâll see with me.â
âAre you going to ask that now?
âNo, I amâŚâ
I did, maybe even more now. âCause Iâve always been around to say I like girls, and I canât deny when people tell me thatâs the intention that surrounded Uffi, and I did prefer Uffi!
â⌠I was aware of the boulder. About the fact that Iâm changing. So, no one like me would be in a boulder.â
âYou never get romantic feelings about the same sex, do you?
â⌠yeah. Especially among the nobles. I have to give birth to a heir.â
âLady Anis is usually imprisoned in common sense in a habit that doesnât have a thump.â
I guess. Iâm aware that Iâm changing myself, and I donât feel so imprisoned by common sense, but Iâm not sure there. I was never conscious. I can also say I didnât need to be awareâŚ
âI admire Lord Anis⌠but honestly, I donât know if thatâs romantic emotion.â
â⌠oh, yeahâ
âIâve never been in love in the first place, so thereâs no comparison. I do hear love stories and such, but it doesnât mean that my feelings overlap there.â
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.
â⌠Huh?
âBut if Master Anis wants you to see it that way⌠you donât mind, do you?
What do you care, Master Uphilia?
Itâs 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! Itâs suppressed!?
âHey, wait a minute! Wait, Uffi!
âYes.â
âNot a romantic emotion myself, I told you!?â
âHa. I did say I didnât know. Is it something that imitates others and makes them fall in love in the first place?
âNo, not for reference!?â
But Iâve never heard of womenâs romance stories.
âHeh, you say reason, thatâs what you say!
âDonât you like it?
For a moment, I was lost in my response to that question. Donât you like it, donât you?
Uffi faces her lips, who asked for air to gasp without words. Ufi blocks me and dims my vision. The look on Yufiâs face, which he sees with backlight, is kind of vain and colorful and his heart bounces as loud as it sounds.
â⌠or are you scared?
There is a worrying color on Yufiâs face that is so close to touching her now.
Scared? Scared of what? I donât know. But it gets quieter as if it were cold that my heart was bouncing loudly. I close my eyes and breathe.
â⌠My queen told me. He wants me to take a good look at you. Iâm sure sheâs a master of lies. You donât have to be fake to be fake. Until you tell me, you may not be aware that youâre hiding it.â
â⌠your mother?
âDear Annis today, he said he seemed frightened by something. He said in his mouth that he clearly didnât have to be loved as a parent, that he seemed to want the affection of his parents. That didnât seem like what the kid thought it was, that it looked more real. Itâs like being in the shape of a parent or a child.â
âŚâŚ
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 donât know. I donât know, but itâs the first time Iâve realized it since I was pointed out. Blur and what comes to mind distracts my mind. Oh, well. I couldnât stand it because I wouldnât be noticed the whole time, and I couldnât because I noticed it.
ââŚâŚâŚâŚâŚâŚ Ufiâ
âYes.â
âWill you devote your life to me?
âYes.â
âArenât you lying?
âI swear.â
âThen⌠will you take my secret to the grave?
â⌠Yesâ
What I didnât tell anyone. That I wasnât aware of. I forgot it with a sense of happiness to follow my dreams, mine.
âI, really⌠what can I say? Yes, you are. It must be a fake.â
It was fake. So I had to be real. The words seemed to fit perfectly into my mind.
ââŚâ Fake â?
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 thatâs 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.
Visit wuxiaworld.eu for extra chapters.
âI want you to take a good look at her. That kid is faking something to us. While he doesnât think so either. Iâm a master of lies, and I donât make you think lies are lies. No, as much as she thinks sheâs true herselfâŚ. Iâm sorry, I canât say well either, but I felt that way. So look at her. Youâre probably the only one who can give her a vegetarian look. Uphilia â
To be honest, I leaned my neck against the queenâs 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. Thatâs where I came up with it. Itâs about âRainiâs implicationâ. 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 dragonâs demonic stone.
But what if thatâs not the only reason? If youâve already made your own âimplicationâ? 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 didnât 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 doesnât match what you said or did when you protected me or when you declared you werenât 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. Itâs still odd discomfort, like heâs just not aware of it either. The queenâs words come back even if she doesnât like the discomfort that doesnât 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 Iâd never seen before.
She says. He said he was a âfake.â He said he had something to keep secret. But I donât know what that is.
âUphilia⌠do you remember not herself?
â⌠a memory thatâs not me, is it?
âYeah. Not here. Somewhere, I donât remember myself livingâ
â⌠noâ
âTo me, it was in my head when I felt like it. I remember that.â
⌠it is.
What the hell is that all about?
âI have memories of previous life. I mean⌠Iâm not here, Iâm someone else whoâs going to live the life of a girl named Anisphere Wynn Palettia.â
âIs that possible?
âHaha, I have thatâŚ. my magic is proof of that.â
âMagic?
I didnât think, âLetâs fly magically.â I knew how to fly magically, so I was able to create magic. â
⌠to the point of becoming. Then the order is certainly the opposite. Itâs a big difference that Anis was able to produce magic because he knew, not because he derived it.
I didnât 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.
âI was a civilian.â
â⌠civilians?
âYou didnât 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.â
â⌠such a worldâ
âItâs only in my head, though. And this isnât about the world. Itâs conclusive evidence.â
You put a foreground, and then Master Anis squeals like he spits out something seriously painful.
âThereâs no magic. Thereâs no magic.â
â⌠no magic?
âTo be precise, it was a world without spirits. It was the existence of a gaga story. It wasnât real. Magic was just a dream story to make kids listen. At least that was the reality for me.â
Lady Anis closed her eyes and continued her words with a slow exhalation.
âI 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 wasâ Anisphere Win Palettia. â
â⌠itâ
âIâm not me. But I wasâ Anisphere Win Palettia â. I couldnât be any more, I couldnât go back, and I just had to live like that. I didnât hate that.â
Lady Aniseâs breath trembled. My hands, which were loose, hide to cover my face.
Itâs like putting your nails on a mask. Itâs going to crumble and break. Hold that, as if itâs going to hide your face.
âBut I ruined Alâs future because of me. endangered the future of this country.â
ââââ
âIf I was justâ Anisphere Win Palettia, âif I wasnât even remembered in my previous life!⌠Oh yeah! Always, always, always, always! That scared me!!â
Master Anis screams like he went mad. The mask breaks, the face becomes dewy. I was there⌠just like a child.
âI admired magic, but I couldnât use magic even though I was royal! Itâs in front of me, but I couldnât reach it! Thatâs why I wanted a replacement! I wanted a compliment! I, I, Iâm not weird, I wish you hadnât thought of me weird! Just a kid who can do great things! Or youâll find out! Iâm not the Anisphere Win Palettia. I know who I am! Isnât that cruel!? Can you imagine Yufi? If you were told to live as someone different from tomorrow, Iâd 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, isnât it creepy?!?â
Master Anis is screaming. Scream with blood spitting thoughts.
âI was loved. I knew it. As royalty, but they still loved me. I didnât 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!⌠Thatâs why I created magic. My, my own magic.â
â⌠that was your secret.â
âI wasnât aware. I didnât want to. I didnât tryâŚ. because if I look there, I wonât be able to be those peopleâs child. Iâll take those peopleâs children. I could have taken it all the way to the future of the country, but I could do such a cruel thingâŚ? So it was⌠easier to be a henchy princess. That was me. As weird as they say, I was stiffened by weird myselfâŚ. Mother, thatâs amazing. I even realized I didnât notice. Really, I was blessed with a good mother, IâŚâ
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. Iâve seen one scale that no one understands.
Oh, this guy was so âheterogeneousâ and so ânormalâ.
â⌠yeah. Refreshing. Of the mind, it feels like some of the people Iâve been to are back. This is my secret, Uffi. I really am, it wasnât Anisphere Wynn Palettia. It was someone. But at the same time, Iâm the Anisphere Win Palettia.â
â⌠Yesâ
âI didnât want to be king, yeah. I had this underlying consciousness. Iâm a fake. Heterogeneous. So⌠I didnât want to make it any more messy. the world of the people who loved me. Besides,â
â⌠and?
âThe magic, it was really nice. It was just what I admired. I liked this world. I thought I could love youâŚ. this is all I am for real. Whether magic is imitation or Iâm fake, the feeling of magic is real.â
⌠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. Itâs too â Iâm angry!
âIâm an idiotâ
âHuh?â
âYou are! Itâs stupid! Itâs all, itâs all set for real, isnât 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!?â
She thinks of herself as a fake somewhere in her heart and decides that thereâs only one thing thatâs real. She was too pathetic, stupid, miserable to look at.
âIt could have been someone else.â
â⌠UfiâŚ?
âIt wasnât Princess Anisphere who wasnât here, was it?â
I canât believe itâs fake. You donât have to think that!
Thereâs this guy who thinks itâs fake and moans compared to the ârealâ that doesnât even exist!
âYou are! You helped me! Youâre here! Youâre listening to me! You are the one who swore my allegiance!! There is no fake or real thing there! You are the only one!!â
ââ ââ
âIsnât it all good for real? Besides you, I donât have you! So where do you say you areâŚ? It would be here!? All of it! What you felt would be here what I felt!?â
Slap her in the chest and exhale roughly. Only when there are tears in my cheeks and I wipe it away rampantly.
â⌠it must have been painful all along. I donât know the pain. I canât say I get it, etc. So let me tell you something, Master Anis.â
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. âA wizard who can make someone smile,â but her dream.
So let me do the magic, too. Give her the magic of salvation, too, as you did to me.
âYouâre the best wizard in the world to me.â
Because this guy keeps admiring magic so much.
â My heart was breaking.
No. It wasnât the heart that broke, it was the chain-like admonition that bound the heart.
Yufiâs 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. Itâs decided to make me cry.
âHuh⌠HuhâŚ!
My throat is cramped. My breath hurts. My vision is full of tears and I see nothing.
Now I felt all was forgiven. I couldnât forgive you one day. It all got better now.
Just free. Iâm sure I canât beat anything anymore. What I wanted is in my hand right now. I can definitely grab it.
Hold Yuffiâs body tight so he can hold on. I couldnât help it, I wanted to scream, but it was so painful that I couldnât 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 couldnât think of anything.
âYes, butâŚ!
Thank you for saving me.
Thanks for making me a âwizardâ.
Thanks for finding me that I almost forgot.
I didnât want to be a âkingâ. Iâve 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 couldnât reach it. Because I was a bad wizard.
Because it confuses the country and breaks someoneâs smile. But even for me, if youâre in this hand. Because I can still say ârealâ.
Oh, no. I canât breathe even though I want to thank you. Itâs painful, just painful.
So I didnât know what blocked my breathing.
Soft, warm. My heart remembers a normal heartbeat for a feeling that reminds me to breathe.
Yufiâs face spread all over his sight. I was crying at the end of my closed eyes, close enough that my forehead was going to stickâŚ!
â- Huh!? MmmmâŚ!! Mmmm!
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa!?
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Near, no, itâs not, itâs blocked, away, powerful!? I canât peel itâŚ!
Even though itâs a breath I canât 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 Iâm 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 fuckedâŚâŚ
I was embarrassed and couldnât see her face properly. All I could do was groan while hiding my face with both arms.
Itâs really been done. Iâve made it unconscious, and Iâm going to be the real me. Itâs like Iâve been enchanted.
I have fallen in love with this man, with Ufilia Magenta, helplessly.
