At noon one day, Byron Allan came to visit.

Byron in my subordinate, so I met Byron in the living room I use on a daily basis, not in the reception room I use for my guests.

I'm sitting on the couch, and Byron's standing.

Behind that Byron, one servant after another still carries in the box and piles it up.

Looking at it, ask Byron.

"What's up, what's that?"

"I just got word from the inside and the back. That Ada has officially become the 'common queen' with His Majesty's blessing."

"Ho."

I see, I nodded.

Aida is the woman Byron offered to the royal palace as a servant.

The woman who met me six years ago and selected me based on my advice.

That the woman was held by Her Majesty and promoted to Queen.

"This is a small gesture of gratitude"

"I see."

I sat down and saw the box behind Byron.

The box is almost open so that you can see the gold and silver treasures inside.

"You're excited, there's about 30,000 Leanes."

"... eh"

"What's up, so surprised"

"No. I was just surprised by Master Noah's eyesight. Your eyesight is perfect for your forehead."

What the hell is that?

"That's good for now. First the common queen."

"Yes."

"On the common queen is the queen, on the queen, and on the top is the queen."

"Yes, if only you could get up to the Lady."

I nodded to Byron's aspirations.

The identities of Her Majesty's Ladies of the Back Palace are divided in ranks.

Needless to say, "Empress" is at the apex.

"Lady" with the meaning "positive" below it.

Under the queen is the "side queen" with the meaning of the side room, and at the bottom is the "common queen" with the words "common" of the common people.

Similar to the officials, the Queens are born in the position of compassion and son.

The Crown Prince's mother is the Empress, and the Crown Prince's mother is unconditional and side queen.

I became the prince of "Xian" six years ago, and that's when my mother became the queen.

The Empress is needless to say alone, so if you're after the top, the Queen is the de facto culmination.

"Later, I'll just pray to His Majesty for more favor."

"No, it's politics from here on out"

"Huh?"

Amazing Byron.

He looks at me like he told me something I hadn't even thought about.

"I said politics. Of course, buying His Majesty's hospitality is the fastest way, but otherwise, politics between the Queens is important."

"Really?

"Try to miss that. What happens if someone in the Queen replaces Lady Aida's perfume with a scent that Her Majesty hates?

"-!"

Byron took a breath, blued as his face looked at him.

"The rear palace is equal to the man's world, and if you pull out only ego, it's more than the man's world's ambush temple"

"Yes!

"Send the money to Lady Aida, send the money. If you knew it was politics, you'd know how to do it, too, right?

"Of course! Thanks!

Byron said so, thanking him in a hurry, and took his own servant and left.

I thought about it a little bit and used the paper and pen that I always have in my living room to finish one letter.

"Anyone?"

Shortly after I called my name, my maid Zoe came in.

Probably been waiting outside the door the whole time.

"Would you like me to call you, sir?"

"Oh, bring this letter to your mother in the backyard with about 10,000 Leannes in cash."

"Uh... is that me? Wouldn't Mr. Dylan be better off at the Royal Palace?

Zoe questioned her nomination.

"The hind house is forbidden for men. You can't even let me in my son."

"Really?

"The prince is separated from his mother as soon as he is born. I only see him once a year or so."

"Ah, speaking of..."

Apart from the royal family, public discourse is often followed.

Zoe's been at me for quite a while too, I guess I've heard of that somehow.

"I don't care about that now. Mother - If it is with the Lady, please also leave a message. She said she intends to be the guardian of Lady Aida."

"Uh... Could you turn your mother into politics?

"Yeah, but?

"Mother... right"

"That's the royal family. Even real parents and children care more about profit and fame than love. Aida is the kid I chose, serious and uplifting. If Lady Aida (,) goes up, she will be a good ally to her mother."

"Ha... Your aristocracy is an amazing world... Ok. I'll be right there."

As Zoe wrapped her tongue around her, she took my orders and headed to the royal palace.

That afternoon, a user came from the Bardsley store on Cobalt Avenue.

Alan, the owner, found the treasure, so he wants you to come anytime.

I wonder if I got caught spraying 10,000 Leanne's bait.

I thought so, and I headed to the single Bursley store.

"Welcome aboard! His Royal Highness the Thirteenth Prince."

When I got to the store, Alan Barsley, the shopkeeper, greeted me with a full smile.

I've been to the store many times already.

I walked into the back lounge like I was my own mansion, so I could take Alan with me.

So I sit in a chair and just ask.

"So, what kind of treasure?"

"This way, sir."

Almost at the same time as Alan put his hand around it, he brought in what the store human was wearing a cloth.

"What's its shape... a painting?

"Thank you very much."

Alan squirts his chin at his own men.

The cloth that was covered was removed, and a single painting appeared in the frame.

It's a beautiful painting of a woman.

It's called "Fluffy."

"Hmm."

I got up, approached the painting, glanced up from close quarters.

"... are you cursed"

"That's just great!

That's what Alan said and put his hands together again.

Then again, Alan's men come in with another painting.

Now he wasn't wearing a cloth and soon found out what was painted.

It is a girl.

It's just a painting, but if you look closely, there's the first painting - the shadow of a beautiful woman painted on a fuwa.

"What's this?

"It's a replica. I hear it was replicated around the time the fuwa was painted."

"I see, a growing cursed painting"

"Thank you very much."

I compared the two paintings alternately.

Fuwa and its replicas.

I can clearly tell.

Through Leviathan, I can see that the real thing is giving off signs of impatience.

If this...

I got Leviathan.

Put out the shrunken Leviathan so that it can be hidden in the bracelet and restore it to its original size.

And - swing it down.

I shook down the painting flurry with momentum.

"Your Highness!?

What do you do, Alan?

Shortly after, he was more surprised.

Oh, my God, there's absolutely no damage to the painting that looked cut, but a beautiful woman popped out of that painting.

He's translucent, his body floating in the air.

The beautiful woman looked as if she were a ghost.

――

Ghost - Fluffy's mouth moved, sounds like he said something.

"I see."

"Hey, what?

Alan asked me surprised because he didn't have a physical voice.

"He said his own blood is used in the paint of this painting. I guess the one you drew is crazy, he killed her who was a child, mixed blood with oil paint, and painted her"

"Oh, that's..."

――

There was something more fuzzy.

I knew it was a voiceless voice, maybe it's just me hearing it.

"Come on, now what?

"He wants to return the favor of freeing me. Then pledge your allegiance to me."

――

Okay - after I heard it, Huwa went back into the painting again.

I'll be right out, and I'll be back.

It seems that thanks to the severance of the wedge with Leviathan, he is not imprisoned by the painting, but is able to leave or enter at any time, depending on his cost.

And.

The ability was also a little on the "+" of the earth.

It's a cursed painting, but this is what it is when you think about how you were born.

Not bad.

On the other hand, Alan was watching Fuwa come and go.

"Shh, wow...... I didn't know a cursed painting would look like this..."

And I was surprised as much as I thought.
