Yotogi no Kuni no Gekkouhime

It was three months earlier that Serene was trapped in an Arquila holding cell, loving the queen who had always hated her. The season had an early summer, and Serene, a party, was no longer required to play the unfamiliar princess and was in tremendous comfort.

- No, there was only one problem.

"Ugh! Over there. No!

Serene slept in a crude bed, lying on her back like a jellyfish launched on the beach.

"Ramen, saumen………………"

This season is more about saumen than ramen, and while I don't care, Serene was applauding the heat of summer for a life that didn't even bother him.

The warehouse where Serene is pushed in is not very well ventilated because there is only one window. Fortunately, a cool breeze is sent from the forest right next to me, and the humidity isn't so great that it's not unbearable, but it's still hot during the summer days.

Serene had summer specifications in order to outweigh the heat a little. Specifically, I was completely naked.

Because nobody saw it anyway, Serene spent most of her time naked except when people came along, like the caregiver bringing meals, wiping her body, etc.

If you are a young child, you are supposed to contaminate your clothes by eating zero, etc., but Serene clothes have absolutely nothing of that kind, and those appointed as caregivers certainly thought you were different from normal children, as the Queen said, but you can't contaminate them because you don't wear them in the first place.

"Hair, granny."

As the body is naked and good, Serene puts her fingers through her own saggy long hair, which is the cause of the heat. When I was spending time in the Royal Palace, women had the trend of stretching their hair, so Serene had to follow it, too, but from Serene, who had short hair in her previous life, it was hot and painful and smelled disturbing.

Serene's hair stretched all the way around her shoulder blades, and her sister, Ale, praised "Serene's hair is like silk thread melting in the light of the moon". But Serene, who had no poetic taste, only thought he was like Saumen. If this hair were saumen, I could eat it.

"No more hair, no more"

Until now, I have followed the rules of the royal palace, but I do not need to detain myself to the appearance any more than I was thus banished. Cut your hair and refresh it. That's what Serene came up with, standing in front of a cracked mirror table, placed in the corner of the room, and taking a less sharp fruit knife, paid for as an equipment.

"Customer, what are you going to do?

"Mijiku."

Serene sets up a fruit knife while playing alone in front of the mirror. Nevertheless, if you suddenly cut your hair just a little bit, Alye will be surprised, and let's just make it a little bit more neat, then let's make it a gradual shortcut. Serene grabs a room of hair and cuts it gently from the right side.

"Wow!?

But Serene was clumsy, so all of a sudden she just hung up. What an odd haircut, asymmetrical to the right and left, Serene blushes.

"Then balance it out!

It's just weird as it is. Now cut the left side and try to adjust the length.

"Wow!?

Now the left is too short! I need to align my right side again... so while I keep cutting my right, left, and right, when did Serene's hair turn out to be like a mad cow.

"Uh-oh!

This is Akan. Akane. Serene doesn't just hold the contents, she holds a head that has gone weird until it looks like it. But there's no way I'm going to get my hair cut back where it bothered me. This is not good. We have to do something.

"That's right!

This is Columbus' egg, a change of mind. Seriously, it's bad because my hair is still halfway there. If you cut everything, there's no balance, no shit. The idea was that if mankind died, there would be no more war, but I couldn't think of any other way to deal with it.

Serene cut her hair off slightly with a fruit knife, and a few minutes later, she turned it into a hair that was uncomfortable even when mixed with high school balls. Aim Koshien.

"Hey, okay! Problem, no!

Although there was a problem, Serene told herself so and decided that there was no such thing. Besides, I'm glad to have freed myself from depressing long hair. As he stuck his bald head out the window, a refreshing glimmer of wind stroked Serene's round head. I feel really refreshed.

"Serene, Serene, are you okay now?

"What?"

At that time, the sealed door was knocked. To its sound and voice, Serene reacts instantly. There is no way Serene could have missed Alye's voice, my beloved sister. It's only a shame that I haven't been able to see Alye every day since I was imprisoned here, but Serene doesn't care so much because she comes to see how it goes every now and then like this.

"Daiji..."

It's okay, she said, and Serene rushes to stop the words. On second thought, I'm round bald right now, and completely naked. You can't just meet Alye in this state.

"Hey, stay, stay!

Serene rushes into her clothes, properly wrapping her hair scattered around the floor and pushing it under the bed. So far so good. The problem is the head, we have to do something about this. But how the hell can we survive this predicament?

"Ah, that's it!

I don't know if it had the effect of rounding my head, but like Tonchi Boy, a proposal comes to mind in Serene. And Serene immediately executed the draft.

"Hey, come on."

Shortly afterwards, he heard that he could enter through the room, so Alye lays his hands on the sealed door. The geometric pattern glows pale and the door is unlocked.

"Serene, how are you doing?... What's wrong with that head?

"Oh, Azabi"

Entering the room, Alye stared at Serene with a suspicious look. Serene is dressed in a trash can knitted in crawl, covering her head perfectly. Because he was like an innocent monk.

"You don't have any play tools here... Next time I'll bring you a picture book or something, just bear with me until then"

"Oh, thanks..."

Usually it was Serene with great joy when Alye came, but now I just want you to leave as soon as possible. But I hear Alye is in a good mood and has some round stuff, and he's not just here to see how it goes.

"Today, I brought some rare fruit. I thought I'd eat with you."

"What?"

When Serene gazed out of the trash can's mesh and looked at Alye's arm, Alye held several pear-like fruits. He must have brought it on purpose to eat with Serene.

"I want to eat, I don't"

"What? Why? Serene, you like fruit, don't you?

"I like it, but..."

Serene answers the words cloudy and vague. Regardless, Serene has a tense appetite, so there's no way she doesn't want to eat it. But I can't eat it in the trashy, nothingness mode. I mean, not "I don't want to eat" but "I can't eat".

"Are you feeling a little sick? Do you have a stomach ache or a fever?

"Chi, no, but"

"Let's measure the heat a bit. Besides, if you wear something like that, your hair will steam."

"Ah!"

Worried about Serene, Alye pinched the fruit with his body and one hand, removing the trash bin that Serene was wearing with the hands of those who were available, and...

"Khhhhhhhhhh!?

I exclaimed. My sister's beautiful hair, which was so radiant, was nowhere near as bald as it could steam, so I couldn't help it. Alye lost consciousness with too much shock and fell flat. The fruit in my hand rolls all over the ground.

"Hey, hey! Takeshi!?"

"... ooh"

Fortunately, Alye fell to the bed, so no injuries were sustained, but Serene was severely wolfed. As the sealed door was left open, Serene popped out intact and asked the old gardener outside for help.

The gardener looked up at Serene, the round boy, who had suddenly appeared, and looked further up at Alye, who was falling into the confinement room. Perhaps even for a gardener who lived a long time, it would have been the most intense moment of his life. When the old man shakes his body gently, Alye regains consciousness immediately, so the gardener and Serene stroke his chest down.

But when Alye shook his head gently to clarify his consciousness, he grabbed Serene's arm, who was lying next to him, disappointingly.

"Serene, let's go!

"What? Go? Where?"

"My doctor!

As Alye jumped out of bed, he pulled Serene's hand with tremendous momentum and jumped outside. I can't take orders from my mother to keep Serene a secret. It's important to my sister.

Trying to be dragged by Alye, Serene was seen by the doctor holding the castle. I should have reported it to the Queen and asked her permission, but my sister is clearly unusual and not if she is standing such a long time.

The physician checks Serene's physical condition as a whole before putting Serene to sleep in a well-ventilated room and explaining the results of the examination to Ale.

"In my view, Master Serene has nothing physically wrong with him. And it's healthy."

"There's nothing wrong with that! That kid didn't even want to eat the fruit, and he cut all his hair himself! Something's wrong...!

"Hmmm... Even though there are no physical problems, when it comes to loss of appetite and self-harm..."

The doctor shuts up for a while. I can't wait for that time to be anxious for Alye. I've been imprisoned in such a cramped room for months, no wonder I'm sick.

"Sir Serene's problem seems to be here."

That's what the doctor says, pointing to his forehead with his index finger. Would you like to say that there is a problem with Serene's head? If so, this doctor's judgment is extremely accurate and he is definitely a famous doctor. But Alye eats and hangs on the trick.

"Is there a problem with Serene's head?!? Everyone is mistaken! That kid is a sweet, smart kid! That can't be right!

"Please calm down. Dear Alye, you didn't seem to express yourself well. I mean, it's not physical, it's mental."

"Mental, Your Majesty?

That said, the doctor forgives Alye. The doctor, who thought he was a famous doctor but didn't, explains Serene's "illness" to Alye.

"It seems to be due to extreme stress. Even animals keep their hair in small huts. Instead, it must have been the gift of Serene spiritual strength."

"Oh, no..."

To the doctor's words, Alye was shocked. What a harsh environment my sister lives in compared to herself being treated as a princess. Hair is life for a woman, so much so that she chops it all up, Serene is cornered.

Even so, he called it "playing" and didn't try to show it by hiding his face. If I hadn't removed the trash can, Serene must have been hiding it all along. Alye makes a tear in her eyes as she alternates with her sister's care without her own impudence.

"I, Mother now...... will be speaking to the Queen! Serene could be dead soon!

"Okay. I will work with you as best I can."

When Alye wiped his tears, he returned to the royal palace with great speed. The real power is held by the queen, but Serene is too pathetic as it is. This time it was done with my hair, but the day might come when I would stick that blade to my own chest. With that in mind, Alye was stirred up by anger and impatience, walking down the corridor with his big crotch and headed straight to trial.

Was it just as shocking for my mother, the Queen, that the usually warm Ale had become fierce and that all her hair had been chopped up? Serene was to be moved secretly to a room in the Royal Palace with surveillance during the summer.

"I'm sorry. That's all I can give you right now, but I'll help you, too, and I'll be sure to help you, so get better soon."

"Never mind, never mind."

"Serene, you don't have to worry about me anymore. I'll bring the fruit again."

"Yeah!"

As a Serene, I didn't feel the need to get out of that room, but for now I moved to a cooler room than before, and my sister came to see me more often, and it turned out to be O'Rei.

The Round Boy swore to Alye that he would never do it again, but in the end, the blade was to be confiscated to prevent recurrence. Because of this incident, Serene was no longer able to cut her own hair, but to spend time in a hot room, her opinion that she wanted to cut her hair short was incorporated, and since then, she has had enough hair to cut it all around her shoulders.

"But reflection"

Nevertheless, it is also true that it caused Alye to worry in vain, and Serene was also reflecting on that point. As such, in the autumn, when her hair had become slightly worse, Serene was to be returned to her cell.

Alye looked forward to seeing Serene pushed into the dark pit without complaining and saving her pitiful sister as soon as possible, and to the day when some great trigger would come.

- Then two years later, the salvation that Alye desires, and the days of Serene ordeal begin.
