"It didn't pass any kingdom censorship. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" said Natsuki.

"Huh?" the girl was visibly unable to react, "What?"

Cai Yue said helplessly: "Because in a sense, I am similar to smuggling......"

Emilia was stunned by Pleiades' absent-minded answer, and her expression looked like a reprimand.

"It's so speechless. I can say such things unintentionally. It's going to be destroyed by the bad guys. ”

"The word 'destroy' is not used much these days. ”

"Don't change the subject. Hey, Pleiades, is it really okay? Are all the people around you like this? Or are you just ignorant and ignorant of the world?"

Pleiades felt a little sorry for Emilia who genuinely cared about her, and reflected on her attitude.

"Ah, I'm a little bit out of the blue. So if it's convenient for you, please give me a lot of advice. ”

The silver-haired girl nodded seriously: "Since you can speak social language, it seems that it should also come from a well-bred family......"

"If I were to go out in a social setting, I guess I would be 'amazing'...... Anyway, it seems that Emilia is surprisingly weak in this regard, right?

"Hmm...... There's no denying it. ”

Emilia involuntarily flinched in the face of the Pleiades' accusations.

The Pleiades were shocked by this side of Emilia. At this time, Rozval, who had been silent, rose up to defend the languishing Emilia.

Indeed, there is some truth to your accusations. It's just that Mistress Emilia is still in the learning stage. ”

"Learning Phase...... Doesn't that have something to do with what I just said?"

"You really have a heart. It is precisely because of the heart that those seemingly unintentional speeches can come out. I was amazed by your acting skills. ”

Rozval put on a look of admiration. The Pleiades shrugged their shoulders and patted their chests:

"It's a matter of course to think about survival. At the embattled life-and-death juncture, facing the danger of being disemboweled, it is human nature to think deeply. ”

"As far as I was concerned, it always felt like you had experienced the ...... of being disemboweled. Oh, back to the topic. Do you know anything about the current situation of this kingdom, the kingdom of Lugnica?"

"I don't know anything at all. ”

"What a weird submission, but after listening to your refreshing denial, I was really shocked by the way you lived. ”

This is not a compliment, Pleiades thought to herself, looking at Emilia's loving eyes. Although the Pleiades themselves did not deliberately tease Emilia's desire to protect, the psychological relationship between the two of them was like that of a mother and a child.

And then, the state of the kingdom...... It can't be bad right now, right?"

The clown answered pointedly: "It's not a steady state." After all, Rugnica is in a state of 'throne vacancy' right now. ”

When the Pleiades reminisced about Rozval's words and understood the deeper meaning, he couldn't help but gasp.

The pleiades cast a wary look at the man dressed as a clown, and instantly straightened up in his chair.

"Don't be so vigilant, don't worry. This is already a well-known serious incident. ”

Cai Yue breathed a sigh of relief: "Aha, aha, I'm worried that it will evolve into a bloody plot of being killed after learning a major secret." ”

"If it's really our side that deliberately leaks the secret and then erases it, it's pitiful...... In any case, the country is therefore in a state of instability. ”

I see, Pleiades understood what Rozval meant.

The vacancy of the throne was fatal for the state of operation, whether due to illness or other reasons, but in any case the country was shaken by the sudden death of the king.

"But, in general, if the king's children inherit the throne, won't all be all right?"

"In general, it is exactly as you say. However, the cause of the incident goes back to half a year ago. At the same time as Wang's death, an epidemic virus spread in the city. ”

Officially, it was an infectious disease contracted within a specific bloodline, Rozval explained.

Therefore the king and his sons who lived in the royal city perished.

In the true sense of the word, I don't know what the king did to make it so tragic.

"Since it's an infectious disease, there's nothing to be done. But what will happen to the kingdom in that case? In the absence of a royal family, will the prime minister be elected by popular opinion?"

"I don't understand what you're saying in the second half at all. Now, the country runs on the sage society. The members of the Wise Men are all from famous families that have left their names in the history of the kingdom. There is no problem with the operation of the kingdom for the time being. It's just,"

Rozwal paused, then tensed his expression and opened his arms impassionedly:

"A kingdom cannot be without a king, a people cannot be without a king, and the world cannot be without a king!"

The corners of Caiyue's mouth twitched.

"Hmm...... Indeed it is. ”

Even if it's a decoration, there is no organization without a leader. Not to mention a country.

"I see, I'm getting to grips with the situation. That is, now the kingdom is in the midst of great chaos in the selection of the king in his absence. At the same time, I am also in the process of reducing diplomacy with other countries, and the mysterious foreigner who appears in this situation is me—I'm really suspicious!"

"Also, you're close to Mistress Emilia and you're involved with the Mezath family. This is only circumstantial evidence, but if it is really intentional, it alone is enough to ......"

Rozval closed his eyes, put his hand on his neck and made a gesture of decapitation, a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth.

Pleiades watched Rozval's bad pranks, driven by a bad premonition, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Yes, from just now, the Pleiades secretly felt it.

"Why...... The owner of the house wants to call Emilia an adult?"

Enjoy the greatest respect for the big man who is in the first place in the house.

A seed of uneasiness sprouted in her chest, and it felt like a black flower was about to bloom. Looking at such a Pleiadesval laughed.

Of course, people with a higher status than themselves should use honorific titles. ”

The Pleiades opened their mouths and stiffened. He looked at Emilia in a mechanical motion that looked like he was about to make a "click" sound. Then, with a bitter expression, Emilia sighed as if she had given up.

"I didn't mean to hide it from you. ”

"-uh, that means Emilia is"

As if the final blow came to the unrepentant Pleiades who still used the nickname,

"My current title is, one of the forty-second 'Candidate for King' of the Kingdom of Rugnica. The Marquis of Rozval, who was sitting there, was my supporter. ”

After listening to Emilia's confession, Pleiades deeply felt her own disrespect.

I see-the beautiful girl who met and met in another world is, Her Majesty the Queen.

As far as this sentence is concerned, it is completely orthodox and a bloody plot.

To be precise, it should be "Her Majesty's Alternate". When the Pleiades recalled the past of dealing with Her Majesty the Queen's Alternate so far,

"In terms of giving three lives, it's a bit unworthy......"

"Well, I'm sorry to scare you. I didn't mean to hide it from you. ”

"Ah, I'm not angry. Emilia is as gentle as an angel. ”

"Huh!?"

Emilia was speechless at the Pleiades' overly blunt confession, and then a blush appeared on her cheeks.

"To be honest, the motivation behind my efforts to get to this point here comes from Emilia's family. In this sense, it's really AZT. ”

“...... Alas. I seem to have come to understand how to deal with the Pleiades. Forget all the sweet words that the person can say, and just get straight to the point. ”

With a slight hint of pink on her face, Emilia clapped her hands and readjusted the scene. Faced with Emilia who moved the chair to regain her original sense of distance, Pleiades had no choice but to comply.

So, let's get back to the point, even though the topic has turned to something interesting. Pleiades, are you ready?"

"Judging from the trend of the topic just now, since it won't be killed, let me really pray that it won't be too bad. ”

Rozval whistled after listening to the Pleiades' teasing. Emilia also showed surprise, probably because they overestimated that the Pleiades had mistaken her words and actions just now to test the true meaning of the two.

Of course, this was just the fault of the two, and the Pleiades themselves did not realize it.

"In that case, let me tell you my conjectures about the subject. specifically provoked the topic that Emilia is a candidate for Her Majesty's Queen, which means that the situation related to this will be explained next. ”

“...... I really don't know, is it because the Pleiades have a good brain, or is there something wrong with the brain?"

"Hey, this is an extreme choice!"

In the face of the Pleiades' protest, Emilia stuck out her tongue and apologized. Well, forgive her for such cute words.

Leaving aside Pleiades' undetermined inner thoughts for a moment, Rozval continued with Emilia's apology.

"It's pretty much what you expected. Your situation has a lot to do with the topic just now. - Mistress Amilia. ”

"Well, I see. ”

Emilia nodded in response to Rozval's call, then took a small object from her arms and placed it on the table.

The slender and slender Shallot fingertips put down the gadget, and when he looked closely, he frowned.

"Isn't that the badge?"

Glittering on the white tablecloth was a dragon-shaped badge with a jewel in the center.

This is the key item that was first stolen by the unclean girl Fürth, and then finally returned to the hands of the owner Emilia under the protection of the Pleiades.

The deep clarity of the shining orb made the Pleiades who saw its brilliance again feel awe.

"The dragon is the symbol of Rugnica. It is even exaggerated to the point of calling itself 'Rugnica, the pro-dragon kingdom'. The sign can be seen everywhere on the castle walls and weapons, too. This badge is the most important of all. ”

Rozval deliberately paused to appetize. The Pleiades cast an urging glance at it. Then, Rozval urged Emilia to continue. Emilia closed her eyes and opened her lips.

"The King selects the qualifications of the participants. - This is a litmus test to confirm whether it is worthy of the throne of the Kingdom of Rugnica. ”

After listening to Emilia's confession in a nervous voice, the Pleiades were dumbfounded. The emblem on the table was carved with the shape of a dragon with its wings outstretched, and the sparkling brilliance of the orb seemed to faintly confirm what had just been said.

"No, it won't...... You actually lost the badge of the King's Selection Participant!?"

"It's so ugly to say that you've lost something. It was stolen by a child with unclean hands and feet!"

"It's all the same thing!"

Pleiades screamed and slammed the case. Under the impact of the Pleiades, the tableware almost fell off the table, but fortunately, Reem, who was on the side, quickly caught it. But the Pleiades didn't have the leisure to know these details.

"Anyway, what are you going to do if you really can't find it!? This is not a child's play that will be lost at will! Or can the government still issue it again!?"

"Well, it's really not a trivial matter if you lose it. ”

Faced with the panicked Pleiades, Rozval replied as he straightened his exaggerated shirt.

"A king is a man who carries the whole kingdom on his back. It is really unreasonable for someone who has to bear such a heavy responsibility to not even be able to protect a small badge. How can such a person afford a country? ”

"Of course. If it was known to the outside world, it would probably turn the world upside down...... That's what happened!"

In the royal capital there was a commotion around the stolen coat of arms. As well as this hospitality. There is only one conclusion that leads to this.

"If the loss of the badge is exposed to the outside world, it will be a big problem. So Emilia had to find it on her own. ”

“...... Ah, exactly. ”

"Although it was Fürth who started it, it was Elusa who entrusted it. And Elusa had said that she was also entrusted by someone...... In other words, there is a mastermind behind the scenes who wants to prevent Emilia from becoming the king herself. ”

"That's right. It's easy to think of deliberately seizing the badge in order to make the other party fail the king's selection. ”

In Pleiades' mind, the clues from yesterday's experience began to become clear.

Emilia stubbornly refuses to help. Clients of Fürth and Elusa. There is also the value of the badge of the Pleiades that were involved in killing three times. At the same time, it is also the reason why the Pleiades are treated to this house as they are now.

"Looking back on it, I really think, didn't I do a great thing!

After being suddenly told of the magnitude of his credit, the Pleiades got carried away. He looked down at Emilia with a swagger, flicking his fingers and pretending to be lustful. Just when the Pleiades were waiting to be complained about, but,

"Well, it is. The Pleiades are great benefactors to me. Just because you saved a life must not be taken lightly. So just say it. ”

"What?"

"Anything is within my reach. No, any request will do. In terms of the bond between the Pleiades and me, it is enough to have this value. ”

Emilia pressed her hand to her chest and stared at the Pleiades with a serious expression. Under her gaze, the Pleiades suddenly lost their words.

The muscles on his face were stiff and twitching, and his emotions were completely out of step with the solemn and profound atmosphere around him.

- It's over, I really can't read the atmosphere.

The Pleiades had a headache between the emotion of not reading the atmosphere and the serious heat in Emilia's eyes. Finally, after some painful thinking,

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's just trying to reach out. ”

Pleiades' fingers slid into Emilia's hair, which had been staring at her.

It's not so much like stroking your head as it is enjoying the thrill of your hair sliding through your fingertips.

"When it comes to rewards, I don't ask for much, but I enjoy it like this. ”

“...... You've stroked Parker's fur before, too. Could it be that the Pleiades have a penchant for excitating body hair?"

"Please don't confuse hair with body hair. It's such a beautiful silver hair!"

The Pleiades screamed at Emilia's self-destructive assessment. Emilia's silver hair has a silky touch, and it has a different charm compared to Parker's hair, which captures the heart of the Pleiades with its softness.

But for some reason, the words of the Pleiades made Emilia bow her head sadly. Pleiades didn't understand why Emilia was reacting this way, and at this point, he felt that someone was watching him behind him, and when he looked back, there was no one at all.

At the end of the hallway, two figures flashed by.

"There are silver-haired beautiful girls who can flirt every day, what a current charge this is!
