Princess In Another World: New Story
60
Sky palace, break room.
Daytime.
“Ari, what are you thinking?”
“Hmmm, Iona, can you imagine how many casualties will fall during the battle against Leiava?”
“To be honest I don't know, isn't the information lacking. If so the condition and state of the battlefield will not be predictable by you, true’.”
“Iya. But, I didn't expect that you'd notice.”
“In all things, information is the most important thing besides knowledge. The more steps of that information then the price will be more expensive.”
“Yes it is true, and because I am currently experiencing a state whose name is lacking information I am a little confused with the direction of the battle later.”
“Ari, I think you should rest a while.”
“Rest, I've rested. I've also had a vacation.”
“Not, even though you're on vacation your head always thinks about it. Even though your body is on vacation but your mind is not, if it continues you will be sick.”
“I've done it.”
“You never did, the first time I saw you not thinking about your job or your job was just on our honeymoon. You don't seem to think about it at all and it makes you look very happy. Yesterday you said vacation, but the result was that you went to the dragon king's place to talk about this, and just then when we got back I'm sure you talked about this matter as well. I've never seen you on vacation, your vacation is not at all. Despite the holiday, you still do your job at that time, and it is not a holiday name.”
“Eh, yes?”
“Iya true. At most when you were with me alone, it was a short time for the holidays. Ever since you walked into the base your vacation time can be counted on your fingers.”
“Hmmm, so.”
“For these few days, as long as the sky palace has not moved I want you to forget about everything. You must rest so that your mental and physical are awake.”
“Haaa, yes yes. I understand.”
“Then, what if it starts with this.” Iona put me to sleep on her forehead. “Do not move.”
“A-what is it?!”
“I told you not to move.”
Something touched my ear. “T-but..”.
“I was trying to clean your ears, sister Risa also did this to me and it feels very comfortable so I thought you would like it too. Therefore, he and do not move.”
“G-geli.” Something landed in my ear and it tickled me.
“Hmmm, usually not like that response. Did I do it wrong?”
“There is nothing wrong, it's just that I'm not used to this because no one has ever done this to me before and again my ears are a little sensitive.”
“Heee, so.”
“Gwaaaahahahaha.. J-don't play me, it's ticklish tau.”.
“It's fun. I've never seen your side of this one, it's so much fun.”
“J-don't play me. If you don't want to do it I'll just go to the library.”
“Eh, no. Well I'll do it right now.”
“Haaaa, yes already.”
Thereafter.
“How? What's good?”
“Yes, at least not as bad as earlier.”
“Ari, there's something I want to tell you.”
“What?”
“Actually I must not say this, a request from my friends not to talk about it with you any time soon.”
“Huh? Whatisit? What's something important?”
“Ari, actually..”.
“Haaaa, finally done too.” (Lucy)
“Lucy, you're back.” Lucy and Ria are back.
“Yes. Hooo, it seems like what you guys are doing is convenient. Ria, can you do that to me too?”
“But I don't have..”
“This, I brought it over earlier.”
“You came home just to take it?”
“Iya.”
“Haaaaa, I thought you took something important or what, it turned out to be just that.”
“Thanks.” Ria took it, and after that they both did the same thing Iona and Ia did.
“Haaaaa, it feels very comfortable.”
“Really? Thanks.”
“Lucy, how?”
“Only a few kingdoms left, maybe I can finish it tomorrow or the day after.”
“Some kingdoms only, yes. It turns out enough... Ghawhahahahah... I-iona!!” He did it again, something that made me feel amused.
“I've told you not to discuss about work for now.”
“Haaaa, fine.”
“Vice commander, you why?”
“She is sensitive in her ears, if she does it wrong then she will feel amused.” (Lucy)
“Yes, after seeing just now I just realized it too.”
“So.”
“You are always sensitive to small things like this.”
“There's nothing I can be proud of about it. Ahhh, there, yes there. Haaa, very good.”
And a few days passed.
Tonight is the last night of the festival, and tomorrow the charging of the sky palace will be completed.
In room.
I was getting ready to come to the festival on the last day. “Ari, let me quickly hear tonight there will be a very great show as a marker of the end of the festival, we must not be late.”
“Iya, where are the others?”
“They've been waiting for us, let's not waste time.”
“Good.”
A few minutes after that.
We and the others separated. “Wah, stores that open more than yesterday.”
“Because this is the end of the show they want to do their best to end this event, I can't wait to see it.”
“Awaited it? What?”
“If this is indeed a festival made by heroes, it should be at the end of the event there it is.”
“That?”
“This place is not good, buy some food and let's go back to the sky palace.”
“Eh, fine.”
Thereafter.
Innards.
“Ari, why are we back?”
“The main way will be better when viewed from a high place.”
“What is the main event like?”
“Just wait.”
Long enough after that.
“Ari, what is it?” A small light slowly flew in the dark night sky.
“It has started, yes.”
“What?” The light exploded and produced another light so big and beautiful in colour. “What it is, it's beautiful.”
“Late summer, yes.” It reminds me of the past, I have always enjoyed festivals like this, but now I am grateful to still be able to enjoy them. “It was fireworks, something in my world.”
“It, very beautiful.”
After the first fireworks are launched, the others are also released.
“Because there is no material that can be used to make it in this world, so most likely it is a special magic.”
“Despite that, it's so beautiful. It looks as if the dark night sky looks brighter with the fireworks.”
“Once, yes.”
“I hope we can enjoy a moment like this again next year.”
“Ya.”
Amidst the noise of the exploding fireworks, Iona whispered something to me. “Once, yes.”
“You don't look surprised.”
“I was surprised, but I was also very happy and so happy that I could have shed my tears. But, I don't want to do it because it will only make me weak. That's what I think.”
“So.”
“But, maybe one day there will be a time when I show you my weakest side.”
“Your weakest side?”
“Iona, what do you see of me?”
“Smart, strong, genius, reliable, and many other things I can't name one by one.”
“You've seen my weakness?”
“No, but you used to cry.”
“That's because of your fault, you let me see that nightmare.”
“Hehe, sorry. But I didn't expect you to have any weaknesses either.”
“My greatest weakness is you, and my greatest strength is also you.”
“Huh? I am your weakness and strength?”
“Yes, the truth that got me to do so far is you gave me the strength to do it. It's possible that if I had never met you before, I'd rather not stay in this world, other than that when I'm with you I see how weak I am. Always pampered, relaxed, and not too focused. That's what makes my weakness appear when with you.”
“So, that means I am the most valuable person for you’an.”
I responded with a smile.
“Hehe, thanks.”
Our last pleasant evening, ended by the beautiful fireworks that adorn the dark night sky.
