The Villainess Is Being Doted on by the Crown Prince of the Neighboring Country

Tiararose wrote a letter to promote interaction with Philadelphia for several months.

The Princess of Philadelphia replied that she would be welcome, so I am now scheduling a visit.

Tiararose brought Lucia Rose to the garden.

Filine and her escort, Talmo and a few knights.

"I'm glad you're able to make it to Philadelphia."

Philline shakes the subject of Fillarcia while making tea.

"Yes. I wish I had more information on Master Sylf... I'm worried we'll find a way in."

No way! Is there a spirit of wind in the royal family of Philadelphia? And I can't even ask with a straight ball.

"We'll have to do everything we can to find a clue."

"I can help you, Master Tiararose."

Thank you, Philline.

Tiararose and Philline laugh face to face and see Lucia Rose playing on the lawn.

--I will never put Lucia Rose in danger.

As a mother, I will protect my child no matter what.

Ahhh ~?

"Ah, Lucia, don't go too far."

It is cute to wear on the lawn with pleasure, but if you go outside the lawn, stones may fall and you may be injured.

"Lucia Arrows is curious. I'll take him with me."

Philline called out Lucia Rose's name and reached out to her, "Here we go!"

As soon as Lucia Arrows saw Philline, the flowers smiled and reached out in the same way.

Hmm ~

"Ah, you're so cute, Lucia Rose!!"

The lovely Lucia Rose and Philline are mellow.

I quickly crouched down and tried to lift Lucia Rose, but her hand grabbed the universe.

Oh?

"!?"

At the moment, everyone on the spot opened their eyes.

Lucia Arrows suddenly fell into a hole in the ground. Suddenly, no one can keep up with their thoughts.

"Lucia!?"

As Tiararose roughens his voice, Talmo runs.

"Report to His Majesty immediately and arrange for a doctor!

Talmo gives instructions to the knight and stretches his hand to the hole where Lucia Rose fell. However, Talmo's hand grabs the universe in the hole without touching Lucia Rose.

"What do you mean...!?"

The holes are not that big, and the size of the ruchiarose is about as big as the ruchiarose. That's why Talmo put his arm in it, but he couldn't even touch Lucia Arrows.

If you don't know what it means, Talmo bites his lips.

"Lucia, Lucia is safe!?"

Tiararose came up to the hole and peeked inside - what a mysterious thing happened.

Lucia Arrows' fallen hole began to close. The hole is about to disappear as he swallows Lucia Rose.

"The hole...! What's going on!?"

"Dear Tiararose, it's dangerous! Stay away!!"

"No! Lucia, Lucia is in here!!"

How can my mother escape to safety?

"No, no... Lucia!!"

"Master Tiararose, for now, let the knights handle it...!

With a screaming voice, Tiararose desperately touches the ground. I don't care if my hands are torn apart by dirt and sand.

I can't even hear the call to leave it to Philline's knight.

Tiararose makes her voice rough, but there's nothing to explain why. All we can do is dig back into the blocking ground while everyone is confused.

"Lucia..."

Relax, Tiara.

"... ah, key... s?

Keith grabs the hand of Tiararose, who desperately digs a hole, and appears in the metastasis. I can see that the expression is serious and different from the usual.

Stay back.

Keith said just one word and put his hand on the ground.

"Trees all over the Marine Forest, use their roots to find the princess of this country!!"

In response, the grass and flowers, the trees, and the earth swayed.

I see that the fairy king that reigns in the forest manifests his wrath.

Tiararose watched desperately for tears to spill and stared at Keith... but Keith stood up after tongue-tapping.

"Shit, I got away.... the Spirit of Earth did it."

Keith takes the hands of Tiararose and makes him stand up.

Looking at the hole on the ground, it looks as if nothing had happened. I can't believe Lucia Arrows may be on the ground.

Tiararose staggers but asks Keith why.

"The Spirit of Earth...? Why Lucia....."

"I don't even know why.... but for whatever reason, I'm not going to forgive you. Isn't it? Aqua"

Seeing Keith calling, Aquastead was on his way.

There is an empty Spirit right next to it, so they must have told me what happened. From that expression, you can see the color of anger.

"- Of course."

Aquastead came under the tear rose and hugged me gently. Then tears spilled out of Tiararose's eyes.

"Aqua, Aqua... Lucia...!

I was patient, but when I saw Aquastead, I was relieved and tears came out. I'm worried about Lucia Rose and I can't help it.

Aquastead gently caresses and soothes the tear rose.

"I can't believe this is happening while I'm telling you to protect me... I'm sorry, Tiara."

"... no. Aqua doesn't have to apologize."

Tiararose stuck to the Aqua Steed and shook his head. Instead, it was me who couldn't do anything with it.

Instead of teasing me, she hugs me to reassure me.

"Even if the opponent is a spirit, I can't forgive him for grabbing Lucia. Absolutely."

"... yes, yes! I'll do whatever I can for Lucia...!

Tiararose weeps if not when she is crying.

"Keith, I don't know where Lucia was taken...."

"Unfortunately, the only thing I know is in Marine Forest."

"Oh no...."

Slightly hopeless - I thought so, but Keith pointed in a direction, "Well, wait."

"We can't even pinpoint the location, but the signs of Lucia have gone from Marine Forest to Lapis Lazuli."

"Well then, Lapis Lazuli... think there's a gnome around Philadelphia we were just talking about."

Keith's words were followed by a metamorphosed crane.

"It's magic to go through the dirt, but it's impossible to get far enough across the country. Not to mention taking people with you."

In other words, the Gnome will be in or around the kingdom of Rapislazuli, the kingdom of Philadelphia.

"Let's go now! If we don't hurry, if something happens to Lucia..."

Calm down, Tiara.

"Aqua...."

Aquastead stops the tear rose trying to get ready in a hurry.

--I want to go and get him!

The feeling of "why?" grows in Tiararose. But it disappeared in an instant, looking at Aquastead's eyes.

Tiararose lost his words to his golden eyes, desperately suppressing his emotions.

Choose the best course of action to help Lucia Rose. Those are the eyes that think about it.

--Aqua said she would definitely help.

I was shaken by a temporary emotion, and if I did everything I could before I helped Lucia Rose, I wouldn't have any children.

Tiararose takes a deep breath and calms his mind.

"Philline, get ready to write to your father and Acari. Elliot, can you magically deliver a letter?

"We'll be ready soon!

"Of course."

When Tiararose gave instructions, they nodded immediately. Filine, who was crying bewildered, wiped away her tears and ran to prepare.

"Talmo, check the condition of the horse as soon as I have it here. Then make sure you can change trains."

"Now!

After listening to Aquastead's instructions, Tiararose realizes that he is going on a ride, not a carriage.

It's overwhelmingly faster, and it works when something happens.

"I go first by horse. Tiara was on a carriage..."

"I can ride a horse too! Please, Aqua, let me come with you."

"Tiara... okay. But it's pretty tough, so if you think it's impossible, say it right away. Okay?"

Yes!

Usually, you can travel by carriage, but Tiararose can also ride a horse. I've never felt so relieved to have practiced.

I'm coming with you.

"Keith!?"

"Norm grabbed Lucia. I won't forgive you."

Unlike the quietly angry Aquastead, Keith doesn't try to hide his feelings. I was so worried about Gnome.

But at the same time, I think it's very reliable.

"Claire, you asked me to stay away."

"... at all. Okay, don't worry about Marine Forest."

Ah.

Keith is always there when something happens, and Claire laughs bitterly when she says she's just answering the phone.

Then Philline, who had a letter set, hurried back.

"Dear Tiararose, the letter is ready!

"Thank you, Philline!

Immediately write to Akari and his father and have them send them under the two Lapis Lazuli with Elliot's magic.

The letter states that Lucia Rose has been taken away by the Ghost Gnome and is going to the Kingdom of Philadelphia. And I want you to tell me if you have any information.

In the meantime, I asked you to investigate the caves and places that lead underground.

"For now... this is all I can do. I wish I could get some information on the gnome somehow...."

Tiararose grasped his hand and calmed his feelings. Otherwise, I would have run away right away.
