Lucia meets the King
I was being pierced by the embroidery of the dress that they brought to my room. Although I was worried about the pattern, it was nice. It was the traditional pattern of this country a long time ago. It is the pattern that my mother taught me when she was still healthy.
Since I wasn’t allowed to get out from this room, I couldn’t go back to my work. But that was good, all I did was finished the embroidery of my dress.
A few days later, just when I finished the embroidery, I got a notice that I will meet the King.
“Right now, immediately?”
I looked at Astorga Fukudanchou who brought the notice.
Astorga Fukudanchou nodded with sharp eyes and without changing his facial expression.
“Yes. I’m sorry that I did not inform you ahead but suddenly the time of the King is open, so, please”
“Ah, I don’t have clothes but…”
“That one, the one hanging on the wall is okay. Please hurry.”
It seems like they won’t lend me a dress after all. Good thing I prepared mine. I thought it was good that I prepared it on time.
I was shocked because of the sudden notice but I can’t afford to bother the busy time of the majesty.
Astorga Fukudanchou left the room for a while. After wearing the dress, I used the ribbon given to me by Ceres san to tie my hair. Unlike my usual ponytail, it was a slightly elaborate hairstyle.
“Ah, is this okay? Isn’t it rude?
“No, it’s alright.”
Is it urgent? I couldn’t read anything the way he talks, I just twist my neck.
“Anyway, if you are done, let’s go. His Majesty is waiting.”
“Alright. Please!”
I never dreamed that the day will come where I get to hear the voice of the Majesty right in front of me.
I was desperately moving my feet to put up with Fukudanchou Astorga, while grasping cold fingers because I was so nervous. The difference in the compass is hard.
We passed through the left wing part accompanied by the Knights as soon as we entered the palace. We then went to the center of the castle where I met His Majesty.
The marble corridor is covered with a soft carpet, which feels like your foot is taken away. On the walls are lavishly arranged candles. Even if there are no windows, it still very bright and the people are walking so elegant. It is like a dream.
There was quite a distance before us. He is strictly protected by the 1st corps knights, aahh, it’s amazing to be a king. He is so great. This is so heavy for a commoner like me.
While I was still stunned, the well – door suddenly opened.
I don’t know the proper etiquette but it is rude to look directly at the face of The Majesty. I relaxed and started moving my feet forward. Is this okay?
Anyway, why was I called here? Is it because of the retaliation of the Augers?
I thought of it while glancing at Fukudanchou Astorga, whose figure reflected on the polished marble floor. I prayed that I won’t be scolded.
“Are you, Lucia Arka?”
He asked, while I was still feeling nervous. Is he the Majesty>? That deep resonating voice is from the Majesty?
“Ye, yes…!”
Meanwhile I shrunk. I can only speak like a mosquito.
“I heard about your power from Florido and Ivano. I heard that the monsters calm down because of your power, is it true?”
He said real…is there a fake one?
I couldn’t answer. What should I answer? Is it okay of I answer immediately?
“Your Majesty, there were reports from the Knights and soldiers. I also saw it with my own eyes; I think that it was real.”
Ah, Astorga Fukudanchou answered for me! Thank you so much. Also, were you at the castle wall during that time?
I felt a little relief.
However, I was dumbfounded at the next words of His Majesty.
“Really! Now, Lucia Arka, go with Sacred Lady Maria, help them using your power. We will reward you greatly.
Yes…Eh???
