73 ecstatic Anastasia




 Arrive at the royal palace without incident.
 Is that natural?
 It's certainly not likely that you'll run into bandits or infidels in the middle of the traffic of King's Landing.

"But Master Will is known for his bad luck skills. Perhaps we may run into them.

 And while that is unusually Lunamaría's joke, the joke is half true.
 I've run into trouble along the way.
 The trouble was a quarrel between a knight and a town girl.

Hey, girl! You have no apology for bumping into my family's treasured sword.

"I'm sorry. Please forgive me.

 It seems that he bumped into the knight and touched his sword.
 The town girl has apologized many times, but the knight still can't forgive her.

"We can't stay here. Come to my mansion and apologize. With all my heart.

 And try to take the town girl with you.
 You look like a jolly old baboon.
 Its purpose was obvious, so I step in to stop it.

"This girl is apologizing for what she did.

"What? The kid?

 A handsome knight gazing at me curiously.

"My name is Will.

"Will? That name sounds like a woman.

 The knight who let out a curt, high-pitched laugh.  
 He looked like the type of man who wouldn't understand if you told him off. He wouldn't back down easily.
 --But I still didn't want to settle it with violence.
 So I step in between the girls and apologize.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry I touched the soul of a knight.

"............

 The bellicose knight who thought I was picking a fight is stunned.
 --But he's quick to show his bad character.

"I'm not happy to hear apologies from people like you. Apologize to that girl.

"This child has already apologized many times,

"So, directly in the body--

 A knight in a hurry to suppress his true feelings.
 Without pointing out, I said, "Please forgive me.

"Please forgive me as I apologize for her. I'll do anything.

You said you would do anything. Then go around and honk like a dog.

 It was Lunamaria who thought it was a good idea to bring such humiliation in the street. She was angry and even tried to draw her sword, but I held her down.

...... Lunamaria, let me take care of this.

"Is

 I tell her in a whisper.

"If I could solve this problem by simply bowing my head, it would be best. I don't want to stain your beautiful hands with this prick's blood.

...... Mr. Will.

"Father Reus would say. It's not shame to play the clown in the street. The real shame is in losing the human heart. This man may be shameless, but we shouldn't be shameless either.

 I say so and say three times and one.
 But gracefully, brilliantly, powerfully.
 A spin, like a dancing swan.
 People gasp at its beauty.

(This is an application of the healing dance after Mother Militia, the god of healing.

 It was a beautiful dance that could be compared to a swan.

 So, with the eyes of all present, I stepped in front of the knight and said, "Wow! And shouting loudly.

 Then the man, who had been concentrating on the dance, falls down with a "ah-hah".
 He falls on his buttocks miserably.
 The people around you who were looking at it start laughing.

It's pathetic. I'd be more surprised if you let it go around three times.

 When he hears the sound of laughter, the man finally realizes that he's embarrassed himself and begins to get angry.

 He tries to draw his sword from his waist, but he sees the patrolling soldiers from a distance, so he spits, "Tut," and runs away.

 He seems to be well aware of his arrogance and lack of purpose.
 Then, after telling the patrolmen, we were released.
 The citizens who were there vindicated us.

Well, that's settled.

 The town girl I saved thanks me flatly when I say so.
 I tell her not to worry about it.
 She insists on thanking me somehow, but refuses, saying now is not the time.
 But Anastasia says.



Oh, no thank you, but you can have a cup of tea in the cafe over there. Actually, I left something at the hotel and was going to come back.

That's a big deal. Okay, I'll see you at the cafe over there.

Then I'll pay for it: ......

 Anastasia looks at her daughter's appearance and shakes her head.
"I'll pay for it. If you say my name, I'll pay for it.
 That's not good, said the town girl, but we didn't mind and invited her to the cafe.

 I didn't say that the king would pay for it, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask the king to pay for the tea.

 Thus we parted.

 When your daughter, Luna Maria and I entered the café, we each ordered our own food and discussed what we should do if we ever met that kind of person in the future.

 The café on the main street of the capital was more expensive than I expected, but I got to hear many stories from the town girl.

 Lately, this kind of games are increasing.
 The king's sickness has caused a disturbance in the security of the country.

 The knight who is supposed to protect the security of this country is, well, that's true, but I couldn't help but laugh at him.

 But I couldn't laugh at him because the security situation would weaken the country's strength while the Zodiacs grew.

If only Master Will could correct the disturbances in the country in some way other than being king: ......

 And a seriously distressed Luna Maria, touching her own chin.

 I jokingly said
"You don't want me to be king of this country either, do you?
 I said.

 The town girl thought he was joking and responded.

"Well, of course I won't be able to marry you if you're king," she said.

 Hearing those words, Lunamaria's cheeks turned a rare bright red.


 The three of them are having such an exchange.
 The earlier knight looked unimpressed as he walked along.

Indeed, I am disgraced.

 The irritated knight shouted at the citizen and kicked at the cat who was walking.
 The cat fell on the spot with a cry of "Whew!

Hmmm, dirty cat. You've got a dirty shoe.

 Puffing and spitting, the knight disappeared into an alleyway.

 Watching from afar was Anastasia, who hurriedly approached the cat and cast a recovery spell.

I'm not very good at ...... recovery magic. --But it looks like he was okay.

 The surviving cat was stunned, but soon remembered that the 'human' was in danger and ran away.

 Anastasia looked at it sadly and said, "You need to be punished.

...... You're going to have to punish me.
 -- and .


 The sickly knight heads straight for the brothel district. He buys a girl to put himself out of his misery.

 But your favorite brothel refuses to let you in. You got banned for roughing up a whore last time.

...... d*mn whore.

 and cursing, the knight changes stores.

 There are many familiar stores. And when you go into the alley, you can see a white leg between the alleys.

 The foot is so white and beautiful that you are startled by its beauty. They were as white as a corpse.

 But you soon realize it was not a corpse.
 Poking out of the alleyway was a beautiful elf.

 She wears a dress that looks like she's half-naked. The figure is beautiful, but you can't see her face. She wears a hood.

...... Well, I don't care what she looks like.

 It's impossible to have such a beautiful body and an ugly face. And even if she were, there are plenty of ways to make her stay without looking at her face.

 Once you've convinced yourself, you ask her for a price.
 She said bewitchingly, "I'll take it for free .......

"For free? Are you a beauty queen? It's a mortal sin to be a bureaucrat in a colorful town.

...... No way, no way. --I'm just in love with a knight. Please hold me.

 What's that, you say, the knight simply takes her into the dark, but that action is too stupid.

"How long are you going to be with me?

 When the knight asked, the whore said with a smile that made the country tilt.

It's up to you, sir. No matter how fast or how long it takes ......

"Isn't she a pretty girl?

 And the moment the man's consciousness goes dark. No, his vision became bright red.

 The knight falls to the spot when he sees the blood flowing from his body. You will be able to get away, but before you know it, the ivy is tangled around your legs and you can't even move.

 Staring at it painfully is Anastasia, dressed as a prostitute.
 She said she seemed to despise the knight.

Thank you. I'm willing to give my life so that I don't stain the honor of finding Master Will with my blood.

 Saying so, Anastasia stomped on the knight's head and had her men tie him up.



"I would cut off your head and make you a Dullahan, but I'll just send you to the front lines.

 He must be very good at it, because he can act so high and mighty with women.

Go serve your country.

 Anastasia said "Bye bye! So with a grin and a wave of his hand, he left the rest to his men.
 When there was nothing left, you look up at the sky from the alleyway.

 The sky looking up from the alleyway was darker than the sky looking up from the main street.

 Anastasia let out a light sigh and said

"...... fashions, I'm so much more rounded now.

 The cause was Will Boy's fault, as mentioned above, but whether that was a good thing or a bad thing, Anastasia could not now measure it.
