The Princess has escaped.
The order was to run around the castle again.
"If you think that it has become neat and quiet here, then there comes a princess……”」
The Head lady-in-waiting Fourier sighed at length. A lady representing a country is conducting such an outrageous act, such as vigorously running around the castle.
Then, the court lady and the waiting women were instructed to chase after the princess, and the others were instructed to give priority to securing the princess if they found her.
"’Cia ran away?’ I heard that there was no cla.s.ses in the afternoon.”」
At the desk with a lot of doc.u.ments in the Oval Office, King James tilted his head. Advisor Otto who carried the report answered with a smile.
"She is a very energetic person. She may be enjoying the rest of her life with her wings stretched out.”」
"Good. Children are the best. But I"m sure Henri’s* iron mask won"t make a good face.”」
“No.”」
The figure of the court chief who was rushing to capture the princess was faintly laughed at. Immediately, however, the head aide removed his smile and tightened his expression.
“Your Majesty. How are you going to treat him?”」
“Come on. I can"t tell you the future when it is uncertain. Even if I am the king, and you are the head aide.…Oh Otto! Cia is running!”」
He shrugged his shoulders in a silly tone, and then the King raised his voice, showing interest outside the window. To the king who saw his cute daughter running, cute while hiding, he was crazy about his daughter, Otto aide bowed his head and left the office.
"Was Princess Alicia there!?”」
“She is not here!”」
Annie and Marsa were running around the castle in search of the princess. They lost Alicia, who was so quick to escape, long ago.
“What about the kitchen? Isn"t the head cook hiding her?”」
"She came a long time ago, and went somewhere after eating sweets. That"s what he said. There was also a tea cup that I saw was half empty, I think he told the truth.”」
Annie thought about how much she wanted to get back to regular work.
If you go to the Knights training camp, the princess came to play for the first time in awhile was adorable, so the Knights will come to report in a good mood.
If you go to the library, the library manager will tell you that the princess was gone while she was smiling, hiding between the bookshelves.
If you go to the kitchen, they had a tea together, and the head cook would be smiling under his beard.
"...... Oh, my G.o.d.”」
The maids nodded to each other, then they ran again to find the Princess.
The girl runs with her blue hair all over the place which welcomes her.――- The cries that came around, finally arrived here as well.
“Did Princess Alicia run away?”」
“Yeah. So, is the princess here?”」
In response to the words of the lady-in-chief (Annie), who appeared in the aides’ office out of breath, Clovis blinked. While looking away from the tall aide, and looking into the a.s.sistant’s room, Fourier quickly explained.
"Oh. You may not know. The princess is often pursued by her maids. Most of the time, you’re not there during cla.s.s.”」
“This all came from Annie. But this afternoon should be a day off?”」
"...... I do not like it. The Princess seems to like you, so she may come here as well. At that time, be sure to catch the Princess. Good.”」
She did not answer Clovis"s question, but she gave her brief instructions and left like a storm.
The a.s.sistant who had been left behind was moving around his desk and fidgeting for a while. Eventually, he ran as if he had determined his will and left the a.s.sistant room.
(Okay. I don"t think there"s anyone coming after me.)
From the pillar, Alicia looked around. Until a little while ago, Alicia heard several footsteps that ran and smacked on the ground, but now it is quiet without even trying to hear it.
After confirming her safety, Alicia patted the filled cloth on her back and smiled warmly.
The chef and the Knights, who she had not met for a while, were very welcoming when they saw Alicia. Thanks to this, handkerchiefs were wrapped around sweets, and baked goods are packed in bags.
(After all, it"s good to go to everyone"s places once in a while.)
The heart of a satisfied and fluffy Alicia walked in complete sunniness and exhilaration. Marsa said, "Lets move your body”, but it was good to do what she said.
…... So much so that Alicia was not aware of where she was because she was walking in a good mood.
If there is a place where you can sit, you sit down and eat sweets. Thinking about that, Alicia"s foot stopped at the sight that spread around the corner.
Inside of her ears, the heart thumps loudly.
For the first time at that time, I found out that I was unconsciously avoiding that place.
"The Hall of Time……”」
Milky-white bronze statues with deep carved faces stands in a deserted corridor. Because it was not decorated to the extent that it was inorganic, the place which was solemn had not changed at all with the scenery in my memory.
The heart beats quickly.
I felt like sighing, and realized that I could not breathe properly.
It"s bad.
I have to leave this place as soon as possible.
When Alicia tried to turn her heel, a figure stood at the end of the corridor.
As soon as she saw him, the face of Alicia became completely white.
