I am the Newly Born Woman of Around Thirty Volume 5 Chapter 15

As soon as she saw Laurel, eyes of the Forte suddenly lifted.

"Commoner who doesn't know one's social standing, what business do you have with us, I wonder? As always these vulgar clothes, besides what is that footwear, it's dirty. Even though you are visiting a sick person. How were you raised? Not knowing even a bit of courtesy."

Hey, Forte stop it already.

Perhaps she had heard our story. In that case we are in danger.

In a hurry I want to cover her mouth. But Forte is [What is it? To attach withered flowers to that hair, it suits her well, hoho~] and she wouldn’t stop.

Under any circ.u.mstances, when Laurel get involved, she will be searching fault and speaking ill, it is no longer a dimension of conditional reflexes, it’s a dangerous bad habit that puts us in trouble.

While holding down Forte, I wondered if Laurel-chan did heard our story? Or didn't?  I examine her expression while my heart beats wildly.

Mouth stiffens, as if wanting to say something to me, Laurel-chan slightly nodded with a sorry face.

Understanding the meaning of that nod, I heart-brokenly drop my neck.

When it will be transmitted to Ricardo-sama, it's over … … I felt despair, however I can not give up.

Somehow I should find words to deceive her, I was desperately working my head, and Laurel said.

“Let me also cooperate.”

Something that I didn't expect.

“… … Eh? What?”

Information that arrived to the head, run around three times, and gets me confused.

Laurel-chan has informed us that she can not agree with Ricardo’s decision.

I get confused more and more…

It seems that Laurel-chan run out of the room to follow Ricardo-sama and object his decision to destroy Royal Palace.

It seems Laurel sometimes has disagreed with Ricardo-sama during battles.

Even Muriel-sama’s case seems to have a big clash of opinions.

Appealing that Ricardo should seek a way to save Muriel-sama, who Ricardo regarded as danger, that he is crucial person needed for Jungun's peaceful future, but Ricardo's intention didn't change.

Ricardo seems to be proceeding operation of blowing up the royal palace at the dawn, and he couldn't do anything by that time.

She heard about our story at the end of such flow.

“Many lives have been protected by his magic tool. Mine and Ricardo’s as well. We are indebted to him, and the words of Ricardo are from his heart."

Clear voice of Laurel-chan shake my heart.

Forte was folding her arms and sticking out her chest with the upright posture, but she seemed to listen to Laurel-chan’s words.

“For the last six months I gave out countless flowers, which are all dedicated to those, who lost their lives in battle, many people were dying in front of me, holding those flowers, that are all beautiful but sad. I don't want to see any more sacrifices.”

All the flowers that Laurel-chan dedicated for the past 6 month were manifestations of sorrow.

As if scars on her heart didn't close yet she clenched fist near her chest and closed her eyes for a moment.

Slowly opening her eyes, she stared at me and kept talking.

“Muriel is a necessary person for Jungun, and he has contributed greatly in this battle. His wisdom is hope not only for Jungun, but also for the other countries. When Ricardo put him beside himself, it had a great deal of trust involved. For Ricardo to become a king, Muriel's death will become a major flaw."

” …… ”

Beside saving someone from death, Laurel-chan showed a terrible utilitarian side of her.

I think that Laurel-chan has changed a lot in this 6 month.

Laurel-chan, who was weak and cowardly like a small animal is no longer there.

Facing Ricardo as equal, and sometimes going against his will, she will try to take advantage.

I wonder, whether people will change so much in less than a year.

That’s why this battle is harsh for Laurel-chan, and it proves that she is overflowing with sorrow.

I understand how big was what she got through.

To be honest, Laurel-chan before the battle didn't have the ability to become Queen.

Always nervous, she was swept around.

Laurel-chan now is still kind and gentle, but she will not be swayed by those emotions.

She is trying to save Muriel-sama for the sake of Jungun.

If the one captured by King Rugnand was a nameless soldier, she probably wouldn’t have moved. Even if she mourn the death of a soldier very much.

Thinking about the whole benefit, she can make a decision to cut down the unit.

It was necessary as a statesman. You can't defend the country just with kindness.

Laurel was a girl gentler than anyone else.

However, Laurel who had undergone a severe battle had abandoned that great deal of kindness that she had, and obtained a strength that was not crushed by sorrow and suffering.

“There is no problem going over the Jungun Army and the water, leave the patrolling troops to me. You don't have to worry about Ricardo-sama too, I will distract his attention even if it means to seduce him.”

As I thought Laurel-chan was born to become a Queen….I was greatly impressed and Laurel-chan powerfully nodes.

As expected, just with command of one Laurel-chan, it became an easy task to break through.

Nevertheless, to say that she would even seduce…

It seems that even in that direction they had stepped to the next level.

“It can be said that invasion inside of the main tower is not a problem with Muriel-sama’s magic tool, but then Tiarella-san said that there is an idea to get out of the castle with Muriel. What is it? ”

” Oh … ah … no, that is … it is that…. “

The sudden question to the point made me mumble.

That’s because the idea comes from my knowledge of the manga’s plot.

King Rugnand tries to escape from the castle using hidden pa.s.sages.

Only a person connected to the royal family knows about them, there is a way out of the castle in the main tower.

I know of their existence from the memories of my previous life, if I use it, I can get out Muriel-sama from the castle! I thought.

But how can I explain it?

Speaking the truth makes everything really complicated and long, and if it is concisely summarized it is doubtful.

I was really nervous when I was kidnapped, but I saw King Rugnand using a hidden pa.s.sage! I decided to insist on this.

King Rugnand doing something like this in front of a girl from enemy country, it is doubtful nonsense.

“No~ … It was so unexpected, true.  That it's hidden in the landing of the staircase, and that there is an entrance to the hidden pa.s.sage behind the painting, no, I was surprised, I doubt my eyes."

Even me, the person who talks about it, think that it sounds like a lie.

I received a gaze that Forte and Laurel also think so.

However, it can't be helped, because it is a lie.

I managed to survive the scene and decided to boil down the plan after that, but a disagreement of opinion took place soon.

Since there is only one robe, the role to bring Muriel-sama must be done by one person.

Of course I was going to go, but Forte brought Levin, and Levin had a big objection.

[I will go!] He said.

The probability of success is very low, and if we fail, Muriel-sama and the person in charge, will lose their lives.

As Laurel came back from the room of Muriel-sama, she felt it,

“This robe not only hides one's presence but also traces and sounds, blocks everything that exists, If one have this, one can easily invade the royal palace, even if King Rugnand doesn't know about the existence of this magical tool that can be used even in the magical ineffective area I think that one will not be found. Muriel may not recognize the person on the side of Jungun, but I think that Tiarella-san, who is the closest to him, has a chance to persuade him.”

She thought that I was qualified.

Perhaps it was official decision that Laurel chose me, thinking over the risk of failure.

Hidden pa.s.sage lie received by Laurel made her think over possibility of success.

Levin is important to Jungun.

On the contrary, even if I lose my life it will have no influence on Jungun.

Laurel persuades everyone with tranquil voice saying that Tiarella-san will be okay.

“Even though the palace where magic doesn't work, isn't it better for powerful Levin-san to go instead?"

"That's right, that's right! I will go. I will not die if I will be chased after. While wearing the robe, I will hit Muriel with a full force, making him lose consciousness, and then will bring him over the shoulder, away from the castle."

While saying violent thing, hysterical yell of Forte follows after, but I stopped those two.

I am thankful for their feelings, but Levin is attached an important role in the military.

If something strange happens in Rugnand, Levin has to immediately follow Ricardo’s instructions and move the army.

I think there is no power left for Rugnand to fight, but I can't say that there is nothing dangerous too.

In addition to that reason, there are strange facts that I can't explain about hidden pa.s.sages.

Based on all the above, I think that I am the best candidate.

Desperately saying that, I persuaded Levin and Forte.

In case of failure, not only Muriel-sama, but Levin-sama would die.

Irregular death of two main casts.

I had thoughts that it was too dangerous, and there was a sense of responsibility because I had twisted the story, that's why I should do it.

Forte gave up to my desperate persuasion and Levin-sama, soon gave up too.
