Yotogi no Kuni no Gekkouhime

"Eh? You want a red dress?

"Yeah."

One day Serene suddenly visited Marie's room when she rarely woke up during the day. Where to sleep - that is, unlike the simple Serene room except for the bed, Marie's room was decorated with stuffed animals and various flowers that seemed to shine with Marie's golden hair in the bright autumn sun.

"Nothing, but it's unusual for Serene to want clothes."

"Akafuku, I want it"

Serene was thought to be my favorite dress from Arquila...... so from Marie's point of view, this snack was surprising.

In fact, Ives sent a lot of clothes to Serene, but he barely put them through his sleeve. I don't think Serene looks very good in flashy colors, and I wasn't sent any red clothes, so I'm not wrong about Marie, but I wonder what kind of mood change it is.

"It may still be a little big for Serene, but I'll give it to you if it's an old dress"

"Thanks!"

Serene shone her expression and received the red dress Marie had put out from the back of her closet. Even when it comes to old clothes, Marie's dresses are all first-class. But I don't care if it's a luxury item. What matters to Serene is the "red clothes".

Selene, who thus returned to the room in a spirit, quickly wears that dress. It feels a little too much for my body, but it doesn't seem to interfere with my movement.

'Princess, suddenly you seem to have gone out to Princess Maribel's room, what is it?

"Tickle."

"Christmas?"

Butler, who appeared from under the bed to a word he had never heard of, asked back with a parrot. To Butler like that, Serene began lecturing on a nasty Christmas, and Butler managed to understand the content.

'I mean, do you want to deliver a gift to Princess Alye for her day to day gratitude?

"Mostly, there is."

Technically, no, but the purpose can be achieved, so Serene made it good. More importantly, today is a fall day in Helifarte with no weekdays, no weekdays, no events whatsoever.

Eight years early when Serene was born into this world, I had already completely forgotten the date of the Earth, etc., but somehow, I just felt it was time for Christmas. Maybe not, but I don't care about that.

Needless to say, Christmas is a Christian event, and naturally there is no Christ in this world. Conversely, I said it was a win, and if Serene says it's Christmas, it's Christmas. If it's Halloween, it's Halloween, and if you eat salad, it's Salad Anniversary.

Therefore, because of Alye, who had moved to college, Serene decided to do Christmas with her mind in mind. Yes, without Santa, I'd be Santa myself. Serene packed the "certain things" she had prepared for a time like this in a small box and wrapped them beautifully with handkerchiefs made of fine fabrics.

"Blubber, mustache…… no"

I would have liked Santa's red hat and white beard if I could, but I can't procure one right now. Since I have white hair and red eyes, and I am equipped with red clothes, I decided to compromise that I would look like Santa. Serene, every preparation is in vain.

Now, the biggest problem is Santa's riding soli, and the reindeer that pulls it off, but Serene had an alternative for this as well.

"Butler, please, there is"

'Ha, what can I do for you?

Serene softly eared at Butler, who rushed over to Serene and thanked him respectfully.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Jubilee, ok"

Later that night, Serene decided to quickly execute the operation. It is an electric shock operation that runs in half a day from planning. The purpose is to deliver Christmas (self-proclaimed) gifts to Alye.

"Butler."

"Yes, I'm ready."

Encouraged by Butler, Serene leaves the room mindful of her eyes around her. He then moved into the woods on the property a little further from the royal palace. Serene lays her hand on the "it", cleverly covered with leaves of a tree, and pays off the leaves above. Then, by the way, there was a trolley with an empty hole.

'I'm sorry. It was so steep that I could only prepare the items that had been discarded near the fruit shop. But princess, why don't we just take a carriage in the daytime, even if nothing gets in this crap?

"Eun Shitsu"

[Ha……]

From Butler's point of view, I don't quite understand Serene's idea, but if the Lord tries so hard, I can't help it. Serene rides on a trolley like a decaying wreck, exasperated. Then the trolley swung, as if alive.

'Okay, then we're leaving! Begin acting quickly while being careful not to go unnoticed!

Butler often tells me not to, and from under the trolley, there is a squeaking noise. That's... that's a bunch of rats! Under the ombolo trolley, incredible rats had become huge chunks like wave-beating black shadows.

"Now, things, Shizuke!

When Serene looks great pointing in one direction of college, the rats start marching. The trolley in charge of the rats leads through the woods at a speed no less than that of the chariot of Junma (Shinme), diving through the eyes of the patrolling soldiers and walking on to the king's capital of Helifarte.

As Cinderella headed to the ball, she was nicely enchanted to turn the rat into a horse in order to make her pull the carriage, but it was the Serenese stream that pushed forward with the volume of the rat.

The time is already late at night. The city is surrounded by silence and darkness. In that darkness, Serene solitude, like a ghost ship on a black wave, pushes forward. The goal is Alye's bedroom.

As discreet as possible, the Serenes made their way through the city at night like ninjas, with Butler's exceptional guidance, and no one could find them. They arrived in front of the university in Ale. I don't see any shadows here either. However, the iron door at the main gate was closed tightly, although there was no guard.

"Mmm."

'Don't worry, Princess. You guys, we're changing formation!

When Butler gives the rats instructions, the rats change shape to a black giant that is several meters away. Scaffolding that giant, Serene and Butler crossed the iron door without difficulty. No matter, it's trespassing.

I have slept with him in Ale's room before, so Serene knows Ale's room. I thought it would be easier if the main entrance was knocked out... but unfortunately, the door to the dorm where Alye lived was hung with a key from the inside.

"Ugh, it won't open!

"Princess, I'll take care of this."

Butler quickly flipped himself out of Serene's shoulder and snuck in through just a few gaps in the door. And then, from the inside, when it's easy, unlock it. I don't do anything cheap like stealing, but there's nothing on this continent that goes to Butler's right when it comes to reconnaissance or breaking and entering.

"Come on, go ahead."

"Butler, thank you"

'What will you say? It's all for Princess Serene and Princess Alye. For that reason, let us eliminate this Butler, any obstacle'

Praised by the great Lord, Butler stood his tail in a good mood. Serene strokes Butler gently, and this again reaches the Ale room in the illegally broken dorm, without straying. The tricky thing is the habit of forgetting in an instant, and it is Serene's stunt that I will never forget when it comes to Alye.

Alye's room was not locked, and when Serene and the others gently entered the room, Alye slept feeling comfortable. While suppressing the urge to jump into that bed, Serene gently placed the little box of presents she had prepared on Alye's pillow.

"Are you keeping this from Princess Alye?

"Yeah, put it down."

'I see, when you wake up in the morning, there's a wonderful gift on your pillow. Princess, you can think of something pretty good. "

"Yeah."

It's not like Serene thought about it. The first time I thought about a small token of a Christmas gift, I just sidestepped someone's handle.

Anyway, Selene, who served her purpose, escaped with the same black rat giant as she had gone, and this returned to Helifarte Castle aboard another ghost ship crawling through the earth. Mission complete.

"By the way, princess, what was in that box?

"Himitsu"

Serene just laughed lightly and didn't try to teach Butler.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Hmm...... is that it? What is it, this?

A few hours later, when he woke up with the morning sun, Alye realized that there was an unrecognizable little box on his pillow. Rubbing his eyes, he stares wonderfully at the box packed with a beautiful cloth. I can only assume someone left you, but who the hell did?

"That's crazy, the dorm should be locked..."

To the mysterious object that suddenly appeared, Alye felt more spooky than joy. While I was sleeping, someone infiltrated me, so I couldn't help it. Even though I get scared and check the windows, the windows are locked properly and there is no sign of them being opened.

"What the hell... I need to open it anyway"

I'm concerned about the origin of the unidentified box, but I have to check the contents anyway. Alye unwrapped the packaging with a tense face and opened the dreaded box -.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!?

Alye's cry echoes in the dorm. It was still early in the morning, and many of the students were asleep, but they jumped out of the room simultaneously to see if they woke up with a scream that stung Alye's ears and peeked from outside Alye's room.

"Hey, what's this?... snake loose shell?

What a snake shell that was in the small box. Packaging by fine cloth in cute little boxes. Even so, who the hell did this nasty imitation of stuffing such a creepy object inside? Is it the harassment of someone who has a grudge against himself? That idea depends on Alye's brain.

"It's true! I saw the devil yesterday!

As Alye was being nailed in the loose shell of a nasty snake, he heard a loud noise from outside the room. Apparently, there's a noise going on in another student's room this time.

"I'm not lying! I really saw it! Last night, I left my wallet in the classroom and went looking for it. Then there was a big black shadow in front of the main entrance! That's also two meters...... no, he's got three meters! Really!"

It is apparently another dorm student who is aroused by a semi-frequent. Fear of seeing a black shadow prevented him from sleeping one night, it was morning and he finally came to his alumni in this dorm for help. In making it up, frightening was not the norm, and the students around them listened seriously.

"Black Shadow…… ominous."

Alye shrugs so, turning again to the snake's loose shell in the small box. Could this creepy loose shell be that black shadow-calling curse tool or something? Who the hell did? How? For what purpose? Various question marks came to mind, but there was no answer, and Alye trembled at his troubles.

In the meantime, Alye tightly repacked the box with the snake's loose shell. There must have been a chapel in the school. We will have this cursed item covered and disposed of by incineration.

"Serene, will you be all right..."

To the mysterious presence that suddenly appeared, Alye guided himself to his sister Serene. I don't know how, but the fact that an item of curse was sent to me doesn't mean that there will be some disaster for Serene as well. That's how it seems to me.

He declares Serene's identity is far from his own, but he doesn't know what will happen in the anomaly. Alye, anxiously looking out the window into the sky, cordially guided the body of his beloved sister, who lives in the castle of Helifarte.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Hey, I think you're welcome."

Around that time, Serene, dressed to sleep in her own bed, was pleasant. By now, Alye will be awake and surprised at the surprise he has set himself up. The best gift Serene can prepare - because I've left a snake shell.

Snake shells are a better amulet for gold luck and happiness in Japan than in ancient times. With a heart that cannot be bought with money, Serene struggled to crawl around the premises of the Royal Palace and succeeded in finding a snake shell. Serene laughed a lot, saying it was a thoughtful gift for me.

"I'm sure, let it go."

I want to reveal who I am to Alye and get compliments, but I am Santa today. I'm not going to reveal who I am. If Alye is pleased, that is the reward above all else. With that in mind, Serene snagged her neck in the blanket like a turtle in order to regain the amount of sleep she'd had for staying up late.

It should be noted that the presence of the black shadows seen at this time - rats - will be considered critical information in a few months' time as testimony in support of the presence of the solar insect. Of course, it has nothing to do with solar insects, and the solar insects were dressed in wet clothes, but that is another story.
