The Queen's Cosmetician

Together with Mariage and Rodimus, we move from a small conference room to a separate room nearby.The room was filled with fresh air and the scent of flowers intersecting it. On the low elliptical table, tea confectionery served in a glass vessel awaited the Mariages.Instead of a tall round table, it would be considered by the ladies that being caught in a long chair facing each other would make them feel more relaxed.Having greeted the dies in a row, they began to prepare tea and baked goods without any noise.

I'm tired of just having a meeting with my voice.

Mariage said while stretching herself on the couch and rubbing her neck.The die turned behind her and took on the role of loosening her shoulders.The bench and her long, wavy hair sandwiched between her back together agree as she sheds forward.

You can often see that your facial expressions and movements are pulling information away from you every day.

Just half a minute and a little. Still, it was quite a struggle to keep my ears open so as not to divulge information.

Mariage breathes out at the words of the die.She woke herself up by pressing the hand of the die that was unlocking her neck.

"The salvation is, ah, you can hear the voice clearly."

A man stands by the wall at the end of her gaze.A young man with black hair and peacock eyes.

Mariage told him.

"I was helped by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry.Rildo, you said. I'll thank you. "

I'm afraid so.

The man put his hand on his chest and politely lowered his head.

Lildo was sent by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry.It was the man who brought in the magic tool that connected the voices of various countries.Its magic tools, placed in all the participating countries, allowed the Mariages to tie in to the holding of a remote but continental conference.

With the opening of the war between Perfilia and Clan Have, many countries and organizations, including Delgigeiras, have moved towards a convergence.One of them is the Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

It is said that the organization, which is referred to as a country without borders, does not, in principle, intervene in the struggle of nations.But it didn't seem to work at all.When the power relations between countries are shaken, they call themselves neutral mediators and offer their help to those in power.Last continental meeting. This time.Last time, at the request of Little Scandinavia, he provided various magic tools such as magic stones and sat in the audience, but this time, he dispatched personnel to various countries and bought the back of the magic tool to connect with them.Rildo was a superior in the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and finally, he came to Del Ligeigeigeia as an envoy with the magic tools that he had installed in the small conference room.

"Queen Lovisa said that too, but why did you say that last time..."

Is it a communication device?

"That's right. You couldn't use it?If that had happened, more countries would have joined the conference..... "

There was a magic tool similar to the one Rildo called a communication tool in Del Ligeiria, but it only activated for a very short time, and it seemed very inconvenient because of the time and language restrictions.The voice is also bad, so the full-time surgeon communicates with the other side with a cipher that combines monophonic sounds, and writes them in the text again.Compared to that, Rildo brought no restrictions, and the audio was as clear as hearing a conversation up close.Connect the same magic tools to each other with an invisible thread of magic power, and bundle the information picked up with the magic tools into the thread.The reason that the place where the moon can be seen is because the objects that can be seen by the user can be a relay of magic power.Seriously, it's a mysterious technology.

It's not a long time ago.I know what it's like to hang out with Alvina.

The magic tools provided by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry have been in production and operation for a long time.

"Technology... or magic?" I needed quite a lot of magic power to move it.

“Of course, that's one of the reasons.”

Rildo affirmed so much.It was a fair answer. The die was looking at the magic stone he had picked up along with the magic tool.Take hold of the transparent stone.The castle will be worth the money.We need to be prepared to provide it.Incidentally, since things are going well on the continent, there is no word against the economic power of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, which can roughly throw stones at the desks of various countries.I just pointed out that it was wild.

"We don't want to expose the fact that we have these tools, or that we can operate whatever you have, Your Majesty."

Rildo went on talking like that.

"To those who have the power to want hegemony."As you can see on the unsupplied ship, we have the power.Even if it is open, we recognize that it is not a fact that pushes us forward and into the eyes of others. ”

"At the Continental Conference, we gained enough trust to release your technology?"

If you want to tell someone...

And Rildo answered Mariage's question.

"In the country where we help, we must have a trusted king who is not going to take power from us."

What happens if I try to take it away?

“Unfortunately, we must destroy it.”

Rildo said as a matter of course.

It was a pale voice.It sounded confident that the Chamber of Commerce and Industry would be able to do so.

He went on.

"At the end of the last meeting, we found that you are purely sad about this continent.And again.... we will avoid the flow of innocent blood in this western beast.We will lend you the wisdom and power we inherit based on our beliefs and constraints that we have a common purpose whenever we can.But we do not rely primarily on our strength to stop the blood, nor do we tilt our balance to anyone with power.Understand that, Your Majesty, and use us. "

Lildo's lengthy speech must be the view of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry.He appeared before Mariage to tell him that.

Mariage put her loosely clenched fist on her lips.Often silent, she raised her head and asked Rildo again.

"Is it good for a man from the Chamber of Commerce to stand on our shoulders?"

"Does it mean that the individual member is?Yeah. That's fine.... we welcome members who make good use of us based on their personal beliefs.Our members are the people of a country without borders, and at the same time the people of a country without borders.... there are many who are also members of the association while serving the king somewhere. "

Mariage nodded.

"... do you have anything else you want to tell me?"

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty."

"Yes. Then you should take a break, too. I will continue to ask for it."

Rilde gave a sophisticated bow and resigned with the bailiff.

While looking at the closed door, Die gives his impressions.

You talk like Alvey, that guy.

"Really.... do you actually know each other?"

"Fufu. Now, let's go."

Alvina, who was also present in the small meeting room and accompanied by the break room, laughed at the water directed from Mariage.I don't deny it, but it looks like she really knows what she's doing from the Chamber of Commerce.

"The Chamber of Commerce and Industry pulls through behind the scenes.Help allies on an equal footing.So use yourself well....... Is this how Rildo wanted to say it to fit in? "

Yeah. That's about it.

Rodimus nodded to the die's interpretation.He was sitting on his back opposite the shrine of Mariage, slightly leaning forward and putting his hands together on his lap.

He smiled bitterly and let out a sigh.

"The Chamber of Commerce and Industry does not turn against the enemy.I would be grateful if you could clarify your position.I don't want it to be any more complicated.The Church of Our Lady is just intertwined and I have a headache. "

Here's what we reconfirmed at the previous meeting:

Perfilia and Clan Have fight in the Ramadi Plains near the border between the two countries.It is unclear which major I majored in.However, because of the murder of Graham Esmel, the mayor of Esmel City, in one of the six cities of Clan Have, Perfilia's envoys entered an all-out war.

When Perfilia invaded, the city of Esmeralda was destroyed. Graham is dead.

Helmut Sagan is missing, presumably because of Prime Minister Ditrout Yerni and his escort on Perfilia's side.

Domestically, a massive movement of people has begun from east to west.

The clan haves were silent. The disappearance of Ineka Ria-El, the Shadow Queen's Speaker, was interrupted.

The reason that Clan Haive continues to believe in Perfilia without paying his resignation from above is due to the Church of Our Lady of Jihad.

"This time, it's the Church of Our Lady again."... what are they in the first place?Why are you clinging to the country? "

Mariage moaned as she drank the tea lavishly.Die roared as she instructed her to sit on her chin and sat down on a solo chair.

It's certainly too familiar and I'm not sure about it.

The black tea received from the lady reminded Dai of the possible sign of the Saintess.

The Church of Our Lady is close to life.The sabbaths and festivals are according to the calendar of the church of the Holy Maiden, and every man prays at all times without being taught.There is a shadow of a saint in every coronation.

While close to this point, the die could not imagine its history or doctrine.

I'm just curious.

"Actually, I felt it in Perfilia, but our country isn't so holy, is it?"more like this, the goddess and the saintly lady..... "

"That's right. I pray to the Holy Maiden, but I wonder if there are more gods to pray to?"Even though we are saints, we are only our ancestors who did great works, but even at the previous Continental Conference, we were all very noisy as saints. "

Everyone praises the Holy Lady as if she were the Lord God Himself.

Rodimus shrugged his shoulders as he pointed out Die and Mariage.

"To answer that question, we'd better go back in time."... what is the Church of Our Lady? "

"Will you let me tell you that story?"

From Alvey?

Alvina, who suddenly interrupted her mouth, nodded, "Eeh," to the question of the die.

"First, let's talk about my perception from outside the continent."It would be easier to grasp the true form of the Church of Our Lady. ”

Can you do that?

Of course, Your Majesty.

Alvina contracted Mariage.

"Do you remember my recommendation letter, whose signature?"Sarisalisa, the queen of the Ice Empire, at the northern end of the Northern Continent.I used to have a great pull, but I've lived out of this continent a lot, haven't I? "

Alvina blinked with one stylish eye and walked with the hem of the costume from the wall, stopping next to the chair where the die sat.

And I started talking.

"The Church of Our Lady is a religion created by Scarlett of the Magic Duchy, the predecessor of Maisenbourg."

Cynthia, the witch who flattened the confused continent.At that time, King Scarlett found a sacred connection with her gods and became a saint through her immense magic and unbearable devotion. That's where it starts.

"There are many people on other continents who don't even know the Saintess.In other words, it is a faith that has developed on the western continent in its own right.In other continents, the main god faith is common."Sometimes I believe in indigenous spirits..."Incidentally, the Spirit is a massive magic force that thinks and moves independently, and is not receiving meat.There's a fairy light, isn't there?Ahh, it's a magic blower.Though they rarely appear in public, they believe in those who have been protected from evil, because they protect the land from evil.... in that sense, in other continents, the faith of the saintly lady may also be classified as the faith of a large spirit on a small scale. "

"Does that mean you think it's not enough?"

"Academically, there will be a different frame.But, yes, from a general point of view, it's a less-than-considerate lesson. ”

Die was discouraged by Alvina's commentary.These knowledgeable sorcerers merely described objective facts, but they felt that their faith had been belittled.In addition, Die was surprised by the emotion.I didn't mean to worship the Holy Maiden that long.

Did you feel uncomfortable?

Alvina laughed as she looked down at the die's expression.

"That's why I thought I'd explain first."Maybe everybody's unconsciously going to say it in a sheltered way. "

"I see..."

Rodimus curled his mouth.He seemed to have the same emotions as the die.

Alvina whispers in a slightly sad voice.

"That's all, the object of worship that devoured the people of the western continent deeply.That's the Church of Our Lady, and the organization that celebrates her is the Church of Our Lady. ”

The Church of Our Lady is the agent of the will of Our Lady.

The doctrine is to bind the worshippers of the holy maiden, and continue to carry out the teaching of the holy maiden while correctly preaching it to the world.

"The teachings of the Holy Maiden...?"

"Perhaps the Prime Minister is more familiar with it than I am."... my lord? "

"... thou shalt support my neighbor." Stretch out your hands and pray together.Then the way to Paradise will not be opened. "

Rodimus, who had been given an explanation by Alvina, puts the center of gravity on the back of the chair.

"This is the teachings of the Church of Our Lady, which is open to the public....... If you support and pray with others around you, the glance of the Lord God will be fulfilled in the land of Botrytism, and a happy afterlife will be promised. This is the place.

Unexpectedly, it's simple.

Mariage muttered and Die nodded in agreement.

Rodimus smiles bitterly.

"The teachings for the people."But in fact, there are a variety of supplementary and detailed provisions for aristocrats.... for the nobility to be a nobleman. "

"...... I'm cumming, I'm cumming, I'm cumming?" What the hell is that? "

"The Church of Our Lady believes that in order to correctly transmit the teachings of Our Lady to future generations, we must preserve the lineage of Our Lady.For it is thought that when the bloodline of the holy lady is cut off, the teachings, prayers, and blessings of the holy lady will also be cut off.... so the Church of Our Lady oversees the lineage of Our Lady.There is a text for this.... provided the Queen is of the rightful bloodline of the Holy Maiden.Who sets it up? "

"The Church of Our Lady..."

Rodimus gave the affirmation that the die had unexpectedly crushed it.

"Within a few degrees of kinship counting from the Maisenbourg public house.This number varies from country to country, but it is required to be the closest lineage to the Maisenbourg house, that is, the lineage of the saintly lady.Gender is female only. It is the Church of Our Lady who prescribes it.In addition, there is also the Church of the Holy Virgin, which defines the nobility as a person who is obliged to hold and support the bloodline of the Holy Virgin.... that the Church of Our Lady is behind Clan Have... "

"It means denying our very existence."

Mariage moaned.

"If the Church of Our Lady decides that we are not nobles, we may cease to be nobles."

“That may not actually happen.However, there will be no aristocrat who will not remember the fear of running into the substitute of the Holy Maiden. "

The more the saint is engraved in her, the more her heart refuses to deny her existence.

Especially if you're born and raised to shake your position.

"Her Majesty Queen Mariage."

Rodimus asked in a harsh voice instead.

Mariage also woke up slowly.

"I wonder what it is, Prime Minister."

"I hope you can understand the cumbersome nature of what the Church of Our Lady entangles."On top of that, let's ask. ”

The Prime Minister asks the Queen.

"Which position do you intend to take in this case?"
