The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady

105 Episode 4: Where I'M Going

We will also decide on escorts and dedicated maids when heading to the planned construction site of the new city to complete the work that needs to be taken over. Preparations went well and time passed quickly.

Finish the necessary work and get a day off. Tomorrow we are leaving the palace for the new city. Taking advantage of that free time, I took a trip to my own workshop in the outhouse.

The chances of stepping into this workshop were diminishing since he stopped voluntarily pursuing development and such on his own. The cleaning of the workshop is clean and tidy, with no dust because the Ilia is solid for me.

"... that's more uncomfortable."

How long have you been here all night and would Ilia have pissed you off for scattering materials and things? I remember myself repeatedly failing and still advancing in search of magic without failing as a thing.

Back then, Ilia was the only one in the outhouse. Especially since this workshop was thorough so that no one but Ilaria could ever be allowed in, and the majority of the memories I've spent here alone.

I thought it would be good to be alone back then. Everyone and I are different, even if we seek understanding, we will not accept it. Then I don't need to understand. Alone is good. For my own sake, I just asked my samurai for magic.

"Ilaria was there, and your father and mother allowed you to be free."

I think it is now. I'm sure it was you who couldn't accept yourself more than anyone else. Above all, I couldn't use magic for a habit I admired magic for. So I desperately sought magic. Otherwise it will not be tolerated. Best in the world, I can't forgive myself more than anyone else.

I wonder now. At least the feeling of loneliness, hunger and impatience I had felt in the past. Everything is like a distant memory. I think it's filled. I think I'm happy that it's filled.

I don't think I had a hard time with the memories I had here. But I guess I just didn't realize it was hard. And now, because I can look back on the past in this way, I realize that its spiciness is feeding me now. The days I spent here were never in vain.

The despair, the frustration, the anguish I tasted. It blends together with a sense of accomplishment, joy and excitement that beats it. The accumulated memories are making me who I am now, like a layer. Makes me feel that feeling right now leaving here.

"Thanks, my workshop"

I'm coming.

I squealed that one word and left the workshop behind. The sound of the key that was placed echoed in a small way.

"Anis. May I interrupt your room today?

It was night. After dinner, Yuffi called out to me where he later just broke up and went to bed. Of course, there's no reason to say no. If you hadn't told me from Uffi, you would have told me from me.

"Fine. Let's have some tea and talk slowly."

"Yes."

Invite Uffi to your room and make tea. Talking time for just the two of us on an already repeated night. Better than me, it must have been healing time for Uffi.

Someone who decided to be queen in my place and really stuck up to the top of it. The first encounter was my accident, and I never imagined it would be such a relationship when I jumped into the scene of Yuffi's engagement breakdown.

Because of all that overflowing talent, he was a person farther from me than anyone else and an object of envy and jealousy. It came next to me to see what fate it was. What a strange patrol if you become conscious.

"Go ahead, Uffi"

"I'll take it."

Sit face to face across the table and have a cup of tea. Sometimes the topic bounced, and I could just feel happy spending some time together quietly.

They remind me that I like my time with Yufi.... It's kind of a day to look back at yourself a lot. After all, I may be lonelier or more anxious to leave the House than I thought I was.

"Anis."

"Hmm? What, Uffi"

"... Tomorrow you'll be gone."

Pompous and Uffi shrugged as they dropped their gaze on the cup they gripped with both hands. Yufi's silver hair on her shoulder drips away.

Yufi's bent face had a look that made her feel that way when she missed her. Such a look on Yufi's face made me feel like I had my heart grabbed.

These places are still younger, I can't believe it. I'm just getting on with it a little bit.

"What? Do you miss me?

"Of course."

I was stared at by the boss. I knew it was cute.

I laughed uncomfortably couscous, pointing my lips like Uffi stubbornly did. Apparently, I'm in a bad mood.

"Sorry, Yufi's cute."

"... are you all right with Anis? Even away from me."

"I'm not fine. Because I think I'm doing something sentimental today, like immersing myself in memories. But I was glad that Yufi felt the same way, and I was horrified."

"... Really?"

Yufi stops pointing her lips and raises her face, which was in a leaning mood.

I'm not worried about leaving Uffi either. Being a queen is never a light thing. I want to support Yufi if I can. Do what I can to support it.

But for that, you have to leave Uffi. I had a hunch that one day such a day would come, although it was so inconsistent with me and Yufi. We have a responsibility to lead the country. Yuffi as queen and I as advocate of magic.

So we knew the day would come when we would leave each other for what we had to do. Even if I know, I think it's a lot when the day comes, and I think about it.

"Even if you expect to come one day, you can actually feel that you're leaving."

"Yufi really likes me."

"... I don't like where Annis tears up or deludes me right away like that"

"If you say such an embarrassment without a shame, you can light it up."

Now my lips are pointy. Uffi is always too straight. I want you to be mine to accept.... I'm not saying I don't like it.

You were on your face thinking about that, and Uffi is looking at me with jito eyes. However, he softened his expression and smiled.

"But I became queen for a day like this. So that you can be free. Your duty as king will not bind you."

"... Ufi"

"I do my duty as king. And to show you where you're going. I will be your place of return. So be free to wing. Follow your dreams as you wish. If you're tired, come back. I always think of you. I can do as much for you as I want."

... Oh, true. That's why Yufi's too straight, your cheeks are getting hot.

I get overwhelmed, I take my seat, and I pull over to Yuffi's side and hug him. Uffi couldn't resist, and he stuck in my arm.

"... Yufi is cunning"

"I don't know. How can you be cunning?

"Because it's cunning.... I really like it, I like it a lot. I love Yufi."

"Yes.... I love anise too"

Loosen the force of the arm that was holding Yufi tight and look at Yufi face to face. Kiss as nature and distance approach to peck Yuffi's lips.

Not once enough. Mouth it again and again to take Yufi's breath away. Yuffi's hand is turned on my back and the distance is closer to each other.

Eternity like a moment. A moment that seems forever. In an overlapping time that could be said of both, I scratched Uffi hard as the love boiled from my heart.

"Call me whenever it gets hard. 'Cause I'll be right there."

"Yes."

"Don't be perfect. Because you can be weak. Rely on it when it gets hard."

"Yes."

"I love you. I love Yufi more than anyone in this world."

"Me too. I love you. More about you than anything else in this world."

I can hear Yufi beating. I can feel her breath. I can always remember this warmth I don't want to let go of.

It's not dawn yet. I still want to be drowned in this sweet warmth because the night is long.

"Her Royal Highness the King of Anisphere, the final confirmation of the luggage has been completed"

Priscilla and Charne approached me as I was looking up at the sunny sky as the scheduled time for departure approached in the morning. I was asking them to finalize the package. I smile and show to the two of you who came to give me a report after that confirmation.

"Priscilla, Charne, thank you both"

"I'm afraid. Well, I'll be finishing my greetings."

"Yes, I'm coming!

"Hehe, go away"

A natural grin comes to Charne's still nascent behavior. I guess they have someone to say hello to, too. Dropping off their backs as they walk away, I exhale softly.

"Dear Ennis, you can always leave here."

"Gakun is tired too. What about Navre?

"I'm talking to Raini over there."

Gakun, dressed in a knight's costume, approached me, but Gakun pointed me with his finger that he was tilting his neck at the fact that he couldn't see his opponent, Navr.

I saw Navru-kun and Raini having a conversation a little further away. Navru-kun was just a slightly nervous face, but Raini laughs couscous in nature. Oh, Navru-kun has an indescribably complicated boy look.

"... is this what separates him?"

"You've been close to Navre a long time."

"Yeah, because Master Anisphere asked me to at first. I've known her a long time and she's been better."

"Huh? Did I ask you?

"Huh?"

"............... uh, yeah! You asked for it! Yeah!"

I forgot all about it. You made contact with me in the first place because I asked Gakun to see how Navru was doing so he wouldn't do anything extra! Good, remember.

The friendship between the escorts also involves collaboration, which is desirable as far as I am concerned. Next time, I want to hear how you two got along.

"Anis."

"Oh, Father. And your mother."

"Is the degree of departure adequate?

My father and mother came when I was talking to Gakun. We could both still call it a light outfit today. Of course, they are luxurious when it comes to light clothing because they are royal.

"... it's emotional when the day comes for you to leave the palace"

He looks at me as his father-in-law narrows his gaze to look far away. I smile bitterly at such father's words.

"I'll be back for the holidays.... but you sure do. If I were to leave the palace, I would have thought it was time that I ran out of places in this country."

"Anis, now you're an indispensable person in this country, and you're aware of how your behavior is seen by others? Never behave as ruinously as before..."

"Silphine, why don't we just send him out honestly instead of preaching today or so? I know you're worried. Why don't you spoil him like you used to?

"... ugh, you!

"Gubbo! Stop hitting your hips!

It was unusual for my father to stop my mother, who spoke to me with a tough face, as usual. Besides, my mother turned bright red in her face and slapped my father on the hips as much as she wanted.

When I look at my mother with my eyes unwittingly round, I cough like my mother has regained her mind. My ears remain red though.

"Mother."

"... or be careful with your body. Show your face to me and to Orphans on holiday."

"Yes, Mother. … thank you"

I reached over my mother and held that little body tight. I heard a pretty voice teasing my mother, but how old is this guy really? Hold your mother tight as you think about it.

"Ugh, Anis... let go...!

"Mother, I'm sorry I always bothered you. But from now on, it's okay. Talk well with the people around you properly, think carefully and live. I won't live in a hurry anymore....... I will definitely be back. My loved ones are here. Of course, your mother is one of them."

"... ugh, ooh, anise... wow, ok, ok, so...!

What's so cute about this mother? At the end of the day, I hugged her again and then let her go, and her mother's eyes are swimming like she doesn't know what kind of face to look like.

When he turned his gaze from his grown mother to his father, he was watching us with a gentle grin.

"There is nothing to say from me. Encourage me, Anis."

"Yes, your father is well. I'm looking forward to hearing from your father."

"Uhm."

Father caressed my head gently. Like saying that's enough. I don't want to tell your father anything again, either. It's not like this is the break up of a lifetime. It just takes a little distance away.

It's almost time to leave. It was critical time and Uffi showed himself with Ilia.

"Anis."

"Ufi."

Call each other names and touch each other's outstretched fingertips. One step, Yuffi steps in and meets her forehead, then mouths her cheeks to the point of touching each other at the end.

Yufi smiled to say she was satisfied with it. I had done what I had to tell you last night.

"... yes, Yufi. Show me your hands."

"? Yes?

I gently put an object on the hand that Yufi offered. When he saw the sole he had put on top of Yufi's hand, Ilia, who was holding back beside him, rounded his eyes.

"Dear Anisphere, it is…"

"Yeah. My workshop key, the only key I have is me and Ilia"

"... this to me?

"I want Uffi to have it. Because that's a place of memories where most of my life is packed. I want you to keep it. Until I get back."

Uffi stared at the key to the workshop he was given and nodded small with a broken grin. Transfer your gaze to me, squeezing the key with your hands all the time. I can't hide it in those straight eyes, dear.

"Anis key, I did keep it"

"Yeah.... it's almost time. It's time to go."

"Yes.... be careful"

Uffi takes a step back, seemingly just a little bit of a shame. He looked at me like Ilia, who lined up beside him because Yufi had taken a step back.

"... Ilia?

"... Ah, no. Nothing."

"Nothing, that's not your face. What? What's the matter?

"... I'm just surprised Master Anisphere let go of his workshop keys"

Ilia dropped her gaze and gently stroked her chest. Speaking of which, did Ilia usually hang herself on a string and lock my workshop on her chest?

I don't have the keys to my workshop except for me and Ilia, which Ilia probably thought was like a mark of a special relationship. Sure, even though it's temporary, it's not weird that Ilia has somewhere to think I'm leaving this place and even letting go of my keys.

"Ilia"

"... what is it?

"Be happy. Thanks for following me so far."

Thanks, the only ally (one) that was closest to me and felt like my sister.

But I met my destiny. And that's the same for Ilia. The way we've both walked is here once, the way we broke up.

Ilia looked up at me haphazardly. The next moment, a grain of puffiness and tears fell from Ilia's eyes. You stuttered yourself, Ilia wipes tears by stroking her cheeks with her fingers. Then for once, close your eyes.

"... I was really happy to have served you so far."

"Yeah. Just break up a little bit, I'll see you soon. But this separates us. Live your life properly, Ilya."

"Yes.... I'll wait here. Welcome home."

Ilia opened her eyes and smiled naturally out of strength. The words waiting were very gentle voices, and I knew that Ilaria was changing a little bit.

So you finished the conversation, Raini and Navru-kun come back. Navru-kun gives me a thank you and then lines up next to Gakkun, who at some point was back and ready for the horse.

Raini lined up beside Ilia in a flash and just a little rush, giving me a full grin.

"Dear Anis! Please be careful!

"Raini too. Uffi, please. And make friends with Ilia. Because the contents are still like children."

"Who is your child"

"Hahaha...... that, well, yes. Don't worry. We'll make it work."

That's what Raini said as he smiled bitterly at me and how Ilia was doing. All I'm saying is don't say anything extra next to Raini like that, and Ilia turns off her grin and stares.

Yufi is smiling gently, one step further back as she sees how we are. I wave gently at Uffi and then turn my back on everyone.

Before the carriage I get in, Gakun and Navr, who serve as escorts, pull each horse, and Priscilla and Charne wait at the entrance to the carriage.

"Then let's leave!

Heading there is New Heaven and Earth. I traveled towards the ideal of still half-dream.

From the clear sky, I felt like I heard a bird roaring freely high.
