(EP.248)The Bird #3
248 – Bird in Cage #3
Sometimes the world is unfair.
in favor of the villain.
I had a reasonable reason for making this proposition.
Let’s say you have a person who has always done bad things.
Whether that person suddenly has a canine heart or feels melancholy due to a sudden wind, when he does something good.
-You’re not really that bad, are you?
– I didn’t know there was such an aspect!
We often get reevaluated when we hear the same thing.
Someone may point out that this is an exaggeration, but in reality, reevaluation like the above is happening frequently in the world. The ‘bad man’ that was once popular in the world is in a similar vein.
And now it was the same with Ira.
ㅡAh… ! The Queen never slapped the maids in the face as the morning passed!
-The maids who spilled the water just released it!
ㅡHey, this is a scam! fake! The fake queen must be!
When Ira does things that would normally be evaluated as ‘I can do that’ to other people, that alone gets a great response.
– What-! The queen makes the wreath herself… !? I can’t believe it… !
One of the servants who received the wreath that Aira had made was so nervous that he could not handle this amazing change, and even shed tears.
Elgar looked at it and snorted, “Heh, it’s shaky.” I could fully understand people’s reactions.
When she was at court, Ira was like a hedgehog with a lot of thorns, and even if she didn’t like it, she threatened her with her teeth and claws.
I couldn’t even predict what was going to happen.
However, Ira, who had regained her own leisure while living in a foreign country, was keeping the line of human common sense, unlike back then.
For those who had low expectations from the beginning, it is natural that even if Aira becomes an ordinary person, tears will flow.
“This place is always noisy and messy.”
Of course, Ira herself slumped to the throne after biting people as if exhausted. It was quite quiet inside the court where the servants who had come to meet Aira had escaped.
Every time I take my voice or step, I get a small echo of my footsteps between the pillars and the floor. Taking advantage of the silence, I said to Aira.
“Still, people liked it.”
“Tae-oh, people have always loved me, my queen.”
I don’t think that’s it.
Anyway.
The court that returned after a long time had some changes compared to about two or three months ago, and some remained the same.
Even in the absence of Aira, the throne shines under the care of the maids.
The garden, which the court is proud of, was in full bloom during the summer, so it was nice to see the flowers, and the youth of the maids who painted their faces were also very refreshing.
Time passed and evening.

Clowns and musicians come to decorate the palace garden. A banquet with many people sitting at tables full of food and laughing hahahaha.
“Queen, can you make a wreath for your soul? . I wish I could give you some variations with thornless roses and tulips.”
“Nothing bad.”
Aira skillfully weave flowers to the servants who lined up to receive wreaths from her, making necklaces and coffins and weaving them.
The servants who received it compare each other’s flowers at a distant foot over there and say their impressions.
-You must have full of dignity on your face.
-Ark’s education must have been effective. I thought it was pointless.
– Guy Tae-oh… , No, Sir Tae-oh must have been right. I don’t think there’s anything to worry about if you don’t have accidents like this and just live a normal life.
When I listen to their stories one by one with my sensitive half-elf ears. I felt something like a gigantic presence approaching me.
When I turned my head, a giant with platinum hair in a black cloak was looking down at me. Her appearance reminds me of a certain woman, but her eyes are red and bloodshot.
“You look good, Prince Reinhardt.”
I opened my mouth first and lowered my head lightly. Then the man held out a glass he was holding and held out to me.
“It’s not alcohol, so you can take it. You must have been thirsty because you came in a hurry?”
I’m guessing you’re talking about why you came back home without a word. If it had been the other way around, I would have been confused, so I decided to just stay still.
“I will drink.”
It was grape juice. It was not as sweet as I thought and it was very sweet, but it was full of ice, so it was perfect to moisten my mouth, which had been overworked by continuous conversation.
A moment of silence from each other.
Her daughter, Elgar, is a shrewd and soft girl in her own way, but her father, Reinhardt, is a man who is so cold-hearted that he is called an iron-blooded prime minister because of his innate innocence.
Dare my daughter-!
I wonder if he’s pulling out my hair with that feeling. When I’m a little nervous by myself, he opens his mouth first with a reluctant feeling.
“Don’t let me admit it. Sir Tae-oh, I think you were right.”
“You mean putting the queen into the arc?”
“okay. I thought it was impossible. It’s amazing to see that you can relax like everyone else after just a few months. Now no one can laugh at you.”
That was correct.
I don’t know what changes happened in the royal palace while I was away. Most of the people who approached me today were kind to me.
At that time, Aira, who had made wreaths for everyone, stood up with a glass.
“Then, let’s make a toast to Angmar’s infinite glory. Also, I would like to use this position to appoint a court wizard who has been vacant for a long time… .”
slur.
Aira’s wide-open eyes looked at me.
“The toast is Angmar’s gardener, entertainment manager, and inspector Tae Oh Gospel. I’ll leave it to Sir Tae Oh, who will assume the position of a court wizard in the future.”
I knew this

Court wizard literally means a wizard hired by the court.
It is mainly to give advice to kings or to foretell fortunes by performing magical things. As it is a job at the court of a country, at least the 5th rank of the Archmage is doing it.
However, since Aira herself was an outstanding 7th-level archmage, there was no need to have the position of a court wizard by her side. But this time, he seems to want me to sit there.
Shh.
I held up the grape juice that Reinhardt had given me.
“Glory be to Angmar.”
* * *
– Sir Tae Oh, I saw everything about the duel trial through the crystal ball. When did you develop such outstanding magical skills?
-This time, my son is going to enter Ark. I wonder what kind of courses I have to take to be able to have such excellent skills… .
As a new court wizard, people flocked to me and talked to me. They seemed curious about how I had developed so much.
ㅡAh… ! It’s not an imp tail wand! It’s very difficult to find… !
-Didn’t you bring in an imp named Marmar, who won 3rd place in the queen contest? My daughter is making a fuss over wanting an imp doll, but how can I… .
– Don’t say you can’t live without a fortress. It’s Seonghwa saying I want my daughter too… .
It’s so annoying.
I looked around, wondering if there was anyone I could ask for help. Then I noticed someone approaching me.
When she arrived, people took a step back.
“Sir Taeoh, congratulations on becoming a court wizard. From the gardener, you jumped up to the eighth place in the royal court in an instant. I know very well that Sir Tae-oh is well-deserved.”
“Thanks for the congratulations, Miss Mirna.”
I greeted Mirna Draco lightly. Mirna’s face was flushed with red, and Mirna’s eyes were filled with excellence.
-You are the young head of the Draco family. Are you younger than you think?
– Even the Draco family who left the court will be brought in again.
Mirna is also one of the protagonists of this place. People must have been curious about the appearance of the Draco family, who had been in hiding for a long time, once again, and gathered like a cloud and asked questions.
“You are Draco’s young mistress. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you like this. I’ve heard good things from my daughter.”
Reinhardt, who was dealing with people next to me, lightly bowed his head toward Mirna. Mirna also greets him by gently pulling her head and the ends of her skirt, following the court etiquette.
“Nice to meet you, Prince Reinhardt. But if I had heard the story from Lioness, I don’t think it would have been a good story.”
“Well, you can see that. I guess that’s not what it’s like to be friends your age. Rather, I’ve heard of Sir Aleister. My condolences.”
“ah.”
“He and I were friends. it was evil He was a strict guy, but he was one of the few people I could turn to.”
As far as I know, Reinhardt, Elgar’s father, and Aleister, Mirna’s father, lived together in Ark and spent their school days together. The founding members of the adventure club that Stella was involved in.
Perhaps it was just like Elgar and Mirna now.
A friend who quarrels.
“Anyway, welcome to the court. I don’t know what happened. If you have any problems during your stay, please let me know.”
With those words, Reinhardt hurried off somewhere to deal with the overdue work. The prime minister is a busy place.
Thanks to you, I was comfortable.
Originally I should have done it all.
silkygoat was the goat. cry
Now that you can have some free time, should you make some plans for what to do in the future?
I thought it would be a good idea to think about how to easily access House Belhawk, so I looked around and pondered.
I think it would be a good idea to get back in touch with Stella Belhawk first.
Then Aira said to the people.
“I think you’ve probably heard all the facts about how long the non-commissioned system will be. By the way. As you can see, it took quite a bit of money to open an untitled film.”
As Aira opened her mouth, the banquet hall that had been noisy until now became silent. When you can’t hear a single small cough. Ira spoke in a soft voice.
“So I decided to borrow the money from the Belhawk family. They say their bank is full of gold. In that sense, tomorrow I will visit the Belhawk family.”
Is it a sudden frontal breakthrough?
I’m all confused.
Then some male elves bowed their heads in haste in front of Aira.
“It is an honor to have the Queen. It’s a schedule, unless it’s been talked about in advance… .”
“Elf, I am the rightful queen of Angmar. Every house in the kingdom is like my house. I don’t have to tell you in advance when I go into any house.”
“… … .”
“If not. Is there anything you want to hide from me?”
“Is that possible? However, if you are not well prepared to serve the great Queen, problems can arise… .”
“It is a well-known story that the power of the Belhawk is as high as a hawk in the sky. no humility Or are you going to have me reverse the story I told everyone in front of?”

Crumpled.
Aira frowned.
Just that alone freezes the air in the venue. Just before the eyes of the royal palace officials burst into bubbles as if the trauma of a long time ago had already risen.
They began to beat the elf with their eyes. It’s like saying, “Don’t be stubborn, accept it!”
Eventually, the elves nodded their heads.
“and.”
However, Ira’s words were not over yet.
