Yotogi no Kuni no Gekkouhime

Episode 12: Plan for the Assassination of the Holy Prince (Part I)

Serene in white negligee wakes up. He stretches as he bites down his yawn, crawls out of bed, and looks up at the blue sky that spreads out the window. Clear today. It's a great spy day.

"Yeah, good morning"

I haven't woken up early in a long time, Serene squeaks contentedly. The sun has already risen the highest, at what the public calls lunch, but it can be described as a phenomenal early rise for Serene, who wakes up with the West Day.

Drink fresh water in a glass and moisten your throat from a water bucket that your Serene maid will keep at dawn. Washing his face with leftover water, he turns to a heavy closet to get himself ready.

"This is so full, I don't want it………"

When she opened the closet of the kannon opening, Serene muttered sighingly. There were a large number of brightly colored dresses hanging in the garment compartment that had nothing in it at the beginning of their arrival. All of these are of the highest quality in Helifarte.

It had already been two weeks since he was called to the King's family dinner party, but Serene had dinner with him almost every day. They liked it for some reason, and the king and his wife - especially the queen - gave him clothes every day, and the huge clothes had already been filled up neatly.

"Always, no"

Even in front of the massive costume, Serene did not look lost and reached for the milky white gothic dress that was in front of her. It's what I wore when I was moving out of the arquilla. If I had a young maid, I would bother to ring the bell and ask her to help me change, but unfortunately she is an aunt maid, so Serene sleeves through the dress by herself.

"Butler, are you there?

'Of course you are. Princess, are you going somewhere?

"Shiatsu"

"I also looked at the structure of this royal palace from corner to corner, but eventually it will belong to the princess, so you might want to look directly at it."

Butler jumps on as Serene kneels down and offers his palm. I loosened the chest of the dress as it was and let Butler sneak in. For Serene, Butler was a reliable partner for times of need, and when exploring the insights of Helifarte, he decided to take him with him whenever possible.

"Today, I mean it"

When she is well disposed, Serene regains her temper by herself. Serene was in a heartfelt hurry to tell him that he was going to be serious starting tomorrow and that although he tried to explore the prince's weaknesses, only time had passed without being able to find a great deal of weakness.

It took me two weeks to realize the fact that the determination to be serious from tomorrow will actually be today when it comes to tomorrow, so it won't be executed forever as a result. To put an end to that inertia, Serene dared to wake up early in the first place.

"As far as possible, secluded, unscathed……………………"

If it is on the property of the Royal Palace, there are no restrictions on movement or surveillance, but I still get really nervous when I think I'm trying to get my hands on it backwards. Sneak the door open with a slip and slip leg to keep it as discreet as possible.

"Serene."

"Wow!?

The moment he went outside, he was hugged by someone from behind, and Serene made his hands and feet twitch.

What do you mean, the intelligence operation ended in just three seconds?

"…… Ah, Marie."

"Eh heh, sorry. I saw Serene come out at a rare time, so I thought I'd surprise you."

Marie laughs in her ear as she hugs Serene from behind.

Serene, hugged by blonde Princess Lori at such a distance that she can feel her exhale, smiles with an untight smile.

Seeing the face of a friend who smiled at the joke and forgave me, Marie smiles again, too.

"Serene, what are we going to do about studying this afternoon? Want to do it with me?

"Today, stop"

"Eh! I don't have much time to be with Serene, let's do it."

When Marie leaves Serene, she turns to the front to create a disgruntled look. Marie had been made to be educated as a royal sagging, but Serene had also become a good thing in the form of an aside. Nevertheless, Serene is asleep during the basic day, so most of the time she doesn't make it to class.

"Hey, let's do it together. You don't like lunch, do you? They just woke me up, and let's go, okay?

"Me, Ben, it's hard."

Serene gently says no. Basically, she hates studying. Marie, however, hesitated to take Serene's words. Getting an education costs money. And I feel sorry for the thoughtful girl who rides for free. That's what Marie saw.

"But Serene is amazing, isn't it? You've hardly been educated, have you? And yet, soon I will understand."

"Because it is possible."

"I'm your sister better?

No matter how many Serenes, they have completed higher education in modern Japan. I don't like to speak languages, but there were parts where people could apply concepts such as arithmetic, geography, science, and hygiene beyond what society could do.

That point was appreciated, and all the educators rated Serene as a very talented woman who did not seem to be eight years old. Compared to Marie, she has gained advantages in life for several decades, so Serene, an adult, is slightly superior to Marie, who is 10 years old. Overall, Marie is overwhelmingly better. I don't know it, but it's a flower.

Marie hates to lose, but she never felt inferior to Serene. Because Serene had no artistic sense of art, dance or singing, which was considered most important to the ladies of the royal nobility.

If you paint, it becomes modern art in a way, and if you make a jump in the dance, you tangle and roll your right foot around your left foot, and an angelic and adorable voice becomes a destructive sound wave if you sing a psalm. In that regard, Marie was far better than Serene.

I mean, Serene and Marie have different specialties. Serene for his sister, who brings out the proud part of Marie and at the same time combines excellence, was an outfit that healed her sense of inferiority for Marie, who has continued to be compared to her overly brilliant brother.

In fact, Marie started laughing a lot since Serene arrived. The certainty with my brother, who had a thorny exchange because of his jealousy, is also disappearing, albeit little by little.

"Oh, my collar is tightening again. Look, just sit still."

Marie noticed that Serene's dress had only a collar and reached out to fix it. Because the collar is snapped when storing Butler's nostalgia, Serene, who is indifferent to the outfit, is often left intact. Undefensible words and actions that do not follow a loving appearance can also stir up Marie's appetite for asylum.

"You have to be properly familiar. Well, if it's broken, I'll fix it for you."

"Thanks."

"So, why don't you want to go to class? You got something to do now?

"……… servitude"

"Investigations? What?"

"To the prince, follow me"

"Eh? You mean your brother?

Marie seemed strange, but soon came to an idea. Objectively, my brother is sturdy with no two people on the continent. The nickname Holy Prince is not Dade.

From toddlers all over the continent to old women, it's enough to be bragged that nothing is female and unfavourable to him. Unfortunately, the rumor was not wrong, and Marie was proud of it, even as she rebelled.

"Could it be that Serene is concerned about your brother?

"No!!

Serene denied it with all her might. Usually the quiet Serene suddenly denied it out loud, so Marie decided on the contrary, "This is a star". Serene has a bright white skin, so it's easy to tell because her face turns red like an apple when she gets excited.

"I can't believe Serene liked your brother."

For Serene, Milan, his brother, is the Messiah. Marie also loves scenes where a captive princess is rescued by the Prince of the White Horse in pictures, plays, etc. I experienced that on my own, so I can't help but fall in love.

Besides, no matter how much Serene denies it with his mouth, it is clear that Serene is trying to find out about his brother, and above all, there is clean evidence.

"Serene, you always wear those clothes, don't you? Why?"

"…… somehow"

Marie is right, Serene is still wearing a milky Gothic dress today. Marie is louder for fashion, so I remember Serene's clothes well every day. And Serene seemed to like these white clothes the most.

Marie knows that since Serene began to live in the royal palace, her mother bought Serene clothes. Of course, it's just a selection of the finest.

Yet Serene doesn't put too many sleeves through them and prefers clothes that are pierced and tailored with arquilla. It is by no means a bad thing, but I have to say it is still inferior compared to the one from Helifarte. Then, thinking about why I've been wearing it for so long, Marie can only think of one thing.

"This is your first gift."

This clothing is the first substitute sent by a thinker. The fact that he is wearing the clothes itself symbolizes that Serene thinks specifically of Milan. At least I could only assume that was true of Marie.

Actually, it's like no. Serene was insensitive to the outfit, so I just like this outfit that I'm used to wearing the most. Or when you take off your clothes and ask the maid to wash them, she brings them again while Serene sleeps, but she can hang them back in the free space in front of the closet. From Serene, clothes are coming again to the easiest place to pick them up, so later they pull it out, and that's just looping until today.

I would keep wearing this dress until it was useless, and if I had other clothes in front of me, I would have gotten it. That's all it was. If a deal had been made to replace all the luxury dresses in the closet with a comfortable, nasty jersey, Serene would have offered everything without hesitation.

"If you're my brother, you're going to the training ground at this hour."

"Shh, shh, shh.

"A place for soldiers to arch. Even though he's a prince, your brother participates every day. My brother is a stranger because he likes the smell of sweat."

"Poor thing."

"Oh, I knew Serene would agree? I wish I was more graceful because I'm a prince."

Regardless, Serene did not sympathize with the situation in Milan. Against the soldiers to be accompanied. If your boss sneaks out to the scene and is being watched, you can't help but catch your breath.

"Hey, Marie."

"Hmm? What?

"So, me, go?

"Huh? To the training ground? There's nothing I can't do, but it's boring, isn't it?

"Please, I, Prince, would like to see it."

"Wouldn't you rather go to Rose Garden than in such a sweaty place? I have a wonderful rose garden."

"Roses are hard."

In response to Marie's invitation, Serene shook her head and refused.

With an unspoken refusal to say whether Serene or not, Marie tilts her neck.

"Really? I love roses though. Why do you hate me so much?

"Creepy, creepy"

"Uh, I like the smell of roses, though. So, what does Serene like?

"Yuri."

"Lily, Lily Park is not in the royal palace. If you were my brother, you might know."

"Oh well..."

Serene seems slightly disappointed, but as she recalls her original purpose there, she turns to Marie.

"No, it's not. Prince, I want to see you."

"Do you want to see me that much?

"Yeah."

"My brother's supposed to be working out pretty hard, so maybe we can't talk much."

"I don't mind, just watch, okay"

Serene's expression is serious. Marie decided to draw on the feelings of her sister that she had come up with along the way.

"Yes, you want to be so close to your brother. We're a little far from here, so let's get in the carriage for the trip. I have to take afternoon classes, so I can only show you around."

"Yeah!"

The place of archery means a chance to see the prince's strength. Maybe we can find the prince's weakness. I thought it failed when Marie first found me, but Serene giggled at the unexpected harvest.

Marie, meanwhile, smiled at Serene, laughing. It is rare that Serene, which is usually somewhere out of the ordinary, represents so much joy. I wonder how ambitious you want to see your brother.

I hear Serene has a low profile, but her father was also tied to a mother from the poor. My father and mother have the same age difference as Milan and Serene. Then it's quite possible for the two of us. At least, it's far better to be engaged to Serene than to be taken by a neighbor's 'that' dear brother.

"(I'm here for you, Serene!)"

Marie took Serene in an upbeat mood to the carriage yard, cheering on Serene with her heart.
