Black Wolves Saga -Bloody Nightmare- Translation

Note: I used machine translation such as Atlas, Google, Bing and Systranet. I wanted to share this because I know it's annoying to translate while you play.  It might not be the most accurate but still...

The dark sky is mourning for future tragedy.
Rain pours down, mixing with the sound of feet. Lightly, lightness.
A small village stands in darkness, unaware of the coming crisis.

[???]--...Here comes the rain......! Big Brother.
[???]--...Fu. It did so, Rath did you get frightened?
[Rath] No such thing. Nnn....It is different......Big Brother, the rain is amazing.
[???]--...Rain? It is different, tears.
[Rath] Tears......? What?
[???] The god Weblin is crying for humanity.
[Rath] Humans......, Humans......I,I hate.
[???] In that case, kill. Paint out the mind with desire. The heart is useless in wolves.
They appeared suddenly. In the rain, two figures stood in the center of the village.
One, a tall man. The other was young and still growing. There was no dislike towards the rain.
Around the man, brilliantly shining were the  gray eyes of a beast. Hungry and bloodthirsty.
[???]--...Go.
One word the man ordered.
One villager woman,"Hii-ii......!"
The wolves' howls tear through the rain.
The feeling of panic coming from the villagers deepen a man's smile.
Even in this situation, one could still admire the beautiful smile.
[???] Kukuku.....Devour the flesh and blood of the humans. Everything.
One villager woman. "Yaahhh! Wolf?! Why, why wolves......!!
One villager man, "Run away! Hurry and take the children, gah!"
[???]--...It is useless.
The roar of the wolves shake the night. Screams go up one after another and then cease all together.
Afterwards, there is the sound of something heavy being dragged. A person.
There is the sound of chewing. The wolves tear up their food.
Villager woman, "Yaaayaaaaaa!.... Stop!..Ugh...!"
Mixed with the sound of rain are spooky chewing noises coming from every direction.
The thick smell of blood lingers and fuels the wolves' instincts.
[???] Ah..a beautiful sound. The sound of a person's scream is the best healing. Let me hear more.
From a wolve pack, a hand reaching for help could be seen. It trembles and struggles feebly.
[???] Die, it is unsightly.
It stops moving at once.
From human to thing. From life to death. A piece of protein, a lump of meat.
Starved wolves, only the miserable sound of eating resonates through the dark. 
[???] Eat more, eat more to satisfy your appetites.
The scream of chaos and destruction is all around. A villager man heads into the man's view.
His destination is most likely the stable. He is going to get a horse and ride into a neighbouring village for help.
If it is on horse, it might be difficult for the wolf to interfere easily.
[???].......Guillan
so he muttered.
[Guillan] Hahahahaha! What is it Arles? Such an ugly fellow, it's not worth killing?
[Arles]--...The instruction.
[Guillan] Che, then do you want me to kill him flamboyantly?
The sound of sharp wind, a silver light cuts into the night, he spins around and slices the head of the man running towards the stable.
Villager man,"......Gu.......!"
The red bitter blood mixes with the rain and soaks into the earth.
[Guillan] Hahahaha!! What small fish! Your lives without value, is it worth living?
The body of the villager who lost his head crumples to the ground with a thump. Wolves form a crowd and soon there are chewing noises.
Meat is plucked and blood is sipped. Red overflows and mingles with the rain to create mud.
[Guillan] Ha, it looks like to me, we did you a favor.
[Guillan] Yes, yes, yes! Hey, please die you disgusting human.
[Guillan] Hahahaha. Eat more. Isn't easier to eat now that it is simply meat?
[Guillan] Aya. Isn't the hunt more fun when they resist?
[Arles]--...Hold your tongue! The instruction.
[Guillan] Geez, I killed like you asked right? Where's my praise?
[Arles]......Alright.
[Guillan] Heheheh, I love shit like that! Hey, do you want me to kill more?
Guillan began to spin his weapon and took the villagers lives.The circular weapon, called a Chakram, was used by hooking your finger inside of it before spinning and throwing it with force. The outside of the weapon forms blades, and if mishandled will hurt the user as well. It appeared that he was was a skilled user.
[Guillan] Aruru. Can we attack a big city next time? This village is so small and is quickly empty.
[Guillan] It's not challenging. Such bullshit villagers! Don't you think it's serious trash?
[Guillan] More and more.....Let's have some fun!
[Guillan] Hahaha! Hahaha! Blood, blood, blood, blood, blood! Everything is cut off!
Between the shouts, the Chakram spins and catches prey.
One villlager woman, "Yaa-aahh......!"
The hunted is caught easily because though the weapon is hard to wield, it is clear that the user is capable.
[Arles] Alright , we may attack a larger town after. But for now, give them more and more pain.
[Arles] More, more. To the last man, annhilate them all.
[Guillan] Good....alright then.
The wolves ran and attacked, roars mixing with screams like a conversation of two, parents and their children.
Suddenly, Arles shifts his gaze and looks at his surroundings.
[Arles] Rath.....where are you?
[Guillan] Oh Rath, that new guy. Then it's suitable that he may have run from the hunt.
[Guillan] That guy doesn't like hunting to much does he? Even though he's your younger brother.
[Arles] Rath is still young. With experience he'll become accustomed to the hunt.
[Guillan] It's settled huh? That is a happy idea in this mess.
[Guillan] I wonder if I should rampage more?
[Arles] Do not leave one person alive. Excluding wolf kind, kill all.
[Guillan] Aya, thank you for the meal!
The fragrance of blood, the screams of tragedy are drowned by the pouring rain.
The small village has become the hunting grounds of the wolves.
[Arles]... ...Rath.
[Rath].... .... .... ....
Replacing Guillan, the figure emerged from the darkness.
[Arles] What did you do?
[Rath] ... ... Nothing. I killed as you said.
[Arles] Rath, do not worry. After the rain stops, set the fire.
[Rath] ... ...Ah, I understand, Big Brother.
[Arles] It has to happen. In order for the god Weblin's foolish people to learn of the wolves' existence.
[Arles] Take it all, the house, the fields, the life. So that if one returns, there is no more.
[Rath] ... ...Big Brother, I understand.
[Arles] If you understand, answer. I am the leader of this pack.
[Rath] ... ... Ah.
[Arles] Do not consider the meaning. Listen to your instincts and kill the humans.
[Rath]... ...I understand, Big Brother. I understand!!
[Arles] You say that. Now kill.
[Rath] Kill. Human kind... ..., kill.
[Arles] Say it again. It's an order.
[Rath]... ... Kill,kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill ,kill, kill, kill, kill, kill. 
[Rath] I have to kill but, I can't.
[Arles] Do not hesitate. We must not forget what they did to us.
[Rath] Kill, kill, kill, kill. Ah... ..., kill.
[Arles] Good--..., go. Burn everything.
The young person's figure disappears into the darkness once again.
[Arles] ... ...Kukuku.
During the helllish tragedy, the man laughed.
[Arles] Other races, I hope you crash, destroyed.
[Arles] See, god Weblin.This is the beginning of the wolf kind's revenge. You call us a cursed race, you will curse us even more.
[Arles] Ahahaha, hahahaha, hahahahaha.
The king of wolves stood at the center, wet with rain and blood.

[     ] Yes, ten years earlier.
[     ] It takes us to history's advancement. The Cat and other races had some friction.
[     ] It began to become definite.
[     ] Ten years ago, a rebellion event took place.
[     ] A Grand Wolf knight served the Weblin Royalty when his sword betrayed.
[     ] Of the rebellion, its sin was heavy.
[     ] The house of knight of imperial guard is taking a crushing. The knight was exiled but, that was not the end of the riot.
[     ] The riot did not only involve the Wolves and Cats. It came to involve all races.
[     ] --... And at the same time, a great plague swept the country.
[     ] Brutal death. "Zodiba" It was called by the people.
[     ] The ill are dyed black and start eating brains. The plague of unknown cause would make you go mad in the end.
[     ] Meanwhile, a rumor that the source of the plague was the Wolf race. The rumor spread throughout the kindom immediately.
[     ] Towns and villages that were attacked by the Wolves focused on the disease. People feared the curse of the Wolves.
[     ] Before long, "Zodiba"  is now called "Mad Wolf" today.
[     ] To rid the people of fears, the six kings of Weblin issued certain laws and regulations.
[     ]--...Genocide of the Wolves or "Hunting".
[     ] The cause of the epedemic, Wolves, were destroyed.
[     ] The balance of relationships between the tribes for hundreds of years crumbled.
[     ] The laws and regulations to protect yourself against Wolves were being justified.
[     ] Fear of Zodiba and enthusiasm caused other races to try to eradicate the Wolves.
[     ] --...And, after that, time flowed for another ten years.
[     ] Zodiba damage subsided after the decrease of Wolves now.
[     ] However, the decree of Wolf Hunting is still functioning. Instead of protecting themselves, people now hunt the Wolves. Wolves have been drastically reduced to an endangered species.
[     ] The Wolves are now the hunted while the Cat race has become strong and now has absolute power.
[     ] Unlike the outside world, the Royal Palace of Weblin is gorgeous and colorful. The Cat race now resides there.
[     ] --It was an absolute monarchy.

[Auger] ... ...?
[Auger]Suddenly a voice was heard. I walked down the corridor with my ears perked up.
[Auger] Hmm? What would you talk about in such a place?
[Maid 1] Hey, hey have you heard the rumor about the witch?
[Maid 2] Witches?
[Maid 3] Ah, the rumors about the witch of Shall Messean?
[Maid 1] Yes, oh yes. The witch lives in that forest.
[Maid 2] Ah, I have also heard of it a little bit.Is it the story about a witch who lives in Shall Messean who cursed Weblin and sprinkled disaster?
[Maid 3] Oh yeah. You know, recently a northern village was destroyed in a Wolf raid?
[Maid 2] Yeah, I heard it was horrible. They killed women, children and the elderly before setting the place on fire.
[Maid 1] Yes, I heard it from a knight who was sent there.
[Maid 3] Even a brave knight would look away from the horrible devastation there.
[Maid 1] The attack of the wolves. The witch could have manipulated them to attack.
[Maid 2] Eh? I wonder what the witch has to gain from attacking the village.
[Maid 3] Though this is a story I heard......To obtain an eternal life, the witch must make a lot of sacrifices.
[Maid 1] Then, the wolves attack the village, the power of the people is sacrificed......It is scary.
[Maid 2] Speaking of scary, his Majesty Garibaldi VI's physical condition has gotten worser recently, hasn't it?
[Maid 1] It seems so. His Majesty's body has been weakening.
[Maid 3] Because of the wolf attacks and the disturbing stories.
[Maid 2] Better yet, I wonder when Prince Mejojo will take the throne.
[Maid 1] Shh... ...! What a thoughtless thing to say!
[Maid 3] Yes, Prince Mejojo ranks first as the heir to the throne, this remains.
[Maid 3] Isn't hoping for the Majesty's death treason?
{Maid 2] Y-yes. I'm sorry, it was thoughtless.
For a while, silence continues. Late at this hour, someone else had heard the conversation.
[Auger] Truly, you're not to know who has heard. (I must be careful.)
[Auger] So. For example like myself, it's the first heir to the throne Prince Mejojo Gabarudi's twin that is eavesdropping.
[Auger] Everyone loves a little rumor. (For me, I don't dislike.)
[Auger] Especially, if it's useful for me, I like it.
[Maid 1] Come to think of it, I remember a little but, there was a discord theory about the Gabarudi twin brothers? Whatever, it seems quite real.
[Maid 2] Eh? Really?
[Maid 3] Oh, I heard it. Well uh sure..., Eleanor and Rayleigh-like talk?
[Maid 2] Eleanor-sama and Rayleigh-sama....? Who are they?
[Maid 1] Ah, Eleanor was the Majesty's lady. So was Rayleigh.
[Maid 2] Oh, incidently I have heard their names.
[Maid 2] Both have died already, I guess?
[Maid 1] Yes, Eleanor and Rayleigh have been dead for several years.
[Maid 2] Even if someone was new, it is impossible not to know their names.
[Maid 2] Then, VI Majesty Gabarudi, I'm sorry.
[Maid 1] Eh, why?
[Maid 2] Would you be allright if you lost your lover so early?
[Maid 1] ... ... ... ....
[Maid 3] ... ... ... ....
[Maid 2] Eh? Why, you two? Did I say something weird?
[Maid 3] Strange thing, you say. Hey, you listen okay, I'll teach you.
[Maid 2] Eh? Eh?
[Maid 1] Eleanor and Rayleigh are taboo in the king's castle.Their necks were cut off, it's not even funny.
[Maid 2] Their necks were cut... ...?
[Maid 3] Eleanor and Rayleigh were the cause of the rift between the Majesty and the princes.
[Maid 2] Eh? So, what happened?
[Maid 1] So... ...
[Auger] (Wonder if it's time to begin soon)
[Maid 1] ... ...!
[Maid 2] ... ...!
[Maid 3] ... ...!!
[Auger] He revealed myself after he had been hiding until now.
The three maids who were chatting happily all turn pale at once.
It would be so. While they were speaking of rumors, their curious Lord showed up.
[Auger] Hey what are you three talking about? Can I join? I love stories.
As to join in, he says it intentionally in a carefree, light tone.
As he thought, they shake their heads with force.
[Maid 1] I am sorry, Prince Auger, and we in this ... ...!
[Maid 2] I must be going.
[Auger] Aw, stay for a while. You don't want your head chopped off right?
[Maid 1] No, something like that...It's a misunderstanding. If you please, forgive us.
[Auger] No. You're gonna die now.
[Maid 1] Hi... ...!!
[Auger] What would you do, if you go? I mean I wish I was going.
[Maid 1] We are very sorry......!
[Auger] Shut up. You're noisy.
[Auger] I'm a court musician. I have good hearing. See my ears? I don't understand you people, I mean Humnity come on.
[Auger] See my hella good ears. I could hear everything na.
[Maid 2] ... ...Y-yes.
[Auger] That's why next time you talk, I'll kill you.
[Maid 3] ... ...Hi...i!
[Auger] Human girl-chan answer!?
[Maid 3] Y-yes! Prince Auger!
[Maid 2] I am sorry......!
The three disappear swiftly.
[Auger] There were many rumors. Gossip sure is fun!
[Auger] I laugh while walking down the corridor.
Even though it declined, damage from Zodiba hasn't disappeared.
Raids of towns and villages by the Wolves.
Together with such a situation, the disquieting rumor extends with surprising swiftness.
[Auger](It seems to rumor even poppa's death.......　 Yes, It is quite fun. )
Isn't it something happy? In the place in which it staggers, the pretty story can be fairly heard.
[Auger] I need to teach Elder Brother.
[Auger] Elder Brother is so serious. he can't have fun without me at all. 
[Auger] Let's make it more interesting, yeah?

I'll post more next time!~  I want Auger! 

[Heroine] ... ...Unpleasant rain. It doesn't seem like it will stop.
Large drops of rain are beating the window , I breathe a sigh.
Sofa is set up beside big window.  It is settled at a favorite position, I dimly look at the outside of the window. 
When looking up at cloudy weather in the other side of the window, [Zaaaaa], Rain that rains hard ..solving.. :, Like the shower of a white string that pours down from the heaven. 
[Heroine] ... ... Ha.
[Pearl] ... ... Ha.
[Richie] ... ... Haa.
Mimicing me, two breaths were heard coming in succession because it was lonesome from my feet. 
I glance from the window to my feet.
[Heroine] (... ... Waa. My dogs are really down... ...)
The dog brothers become flat underfoot.
Because of the rain, is it because we can't go out? They're usually so energetic, but are gloomy today.
[Pearl] Hurry, stop raining.
[Richie] I want to play outside.
[Pearl] Haa.
[Richie] Haa.
[Pearl] There is nothing fun to do. Let's play with Heroine-chan.
[Richie] I want new toys.
[Heroine] Both aren't selfish.
[Pearl] Boo.
[Richie] Boo. Boo.
[Pearl] Haa.
[Richie] Haa~.
Again the two sighed.
I  do not welcome this weather either but....
When you see two people more depressed than you, it makes you feel better somehow.
[Pearl] Heroine, do you also dislike the rain like me?
[Heroine] ... That's right. It's usually not so... I don't like today's rain though.
[Richie] I also hate the rain. You can't play outside and your fur is somehow unrefined.
[Heroine] Ah, that's true... ....
[Heroine] The hair swells with humidity but, I don't understand these feelings because I am long haired.
Pearl and Richie's  fur is sticking up. It's not a problem though because it is cute.
[Heroine] (Softly unrefined... ...)
Their coat is unmanagable due to humidity, two animals ... or rather, two people who are flat by my feet are so lovely I want to pet them.
[Heroine] Ah, geez. So lovely!
My impulses urge me to hug the two at my feet.
[Pearl] Uwaa!
[Richie] Eyaa!
The two are struggling, flapping their arms and legs, but I don't care. When I bring them to my face, there was the gentle smell of the sun.
[Heroine] Fu fu fu, both of you smell good. You are warm and soft.
[Pearl] Hahaha! What are you doing~?!
[Richie] Heroine, that tickles~!
[Heroine] Fu fu fu fu fu.
Hearing the joyful screams of the two, I hug them even harder as we laugh.
They were strays taken in to be servants by my father.
I was frail and had to stay in this lonely tower. They weren't servants to me but, my friends.
I actually like dogs more than people. They are so cute today.
I finally put them gently on the floor.
[Pearl] The hugging has ended?
[Richie] Pearl you're so spoiled. Just like a kid.
[Pearl] No! It's different! I'm an adult!
[Richie] Heh~? Fuu~.
[Heroine] Fu fu, don't fight.
[Pearl] ... ... Ye~es.
[Richie] Ye~es.
[Pearl] But, hurry up and stop raining.
[Richie] Yeah, rain is nasty.
Usually, it is not so, however it is, ......Don't you think?
 For me who cannot go out outside the tower, The weather is a wonderful element that changes scenery outside the window. 
The rain which creates a lazy atmosphere is not usually hated.
[Zara] Fufu, three depressed people. Is the rain unpleasant?
[Heroine] Ah, Zara.
I  turned  to the voice from behind. And there stood my butler Zara Skene, my childhood friend.
He is a of the Rabbit race. He was orphaned from war and was picked up by my father.
He was taken in before she was born, and despite his position as her butler, he’s just like siblings with my older half-brother - Nesso Galland.
But as the position would be to the only daughter of his employer and employee...
I was in his care from an early age, indebted to him anyhow.
[Zara] Pearl and Richie don't have such long faces because of the rain. You'll make Heroine depressed.
[Heroine] .......  It is my 16th birthday tomorrow.  But, it's raining really hard today.......
[Zara] Yes indeed.
[Pearl] Yes indeed~. Zara is so laid back. 
[Richie] Yeah. It's a special celebration. Heroine is one year older.
[Heroine] Richie... .... what does that mean... ....
[Zara] Seriously... .... Is that how you talk to your master and superior?
[Zara] It seems you do not have enough discipline.
[Pearl] There is no such thing. Me and Richie are good right, Heroine-chan?
[Heroine] Yes, yes.
[Pearl] Yes!
[Heroine] Change!
[Pearl] Yes!
[Heroine] Hive five!
[Pearl] Yes!!
[Heroine] All right all right, good boy good boy! Here's a treat.
[Pearl] Mmph... ...! Delicious!
[Zara] Ahaha. Well done, I've lost to you.
[Zara] Nevertheless, it is tommorrow. It would be good if it was nice and sunny.
[Richie] Since tommorow is Heroine-chan's birthday, call the sun before tommorow.
[Heroine] Richie, don't say reckless things.
[Richie] Why? Can't Zara cure anything?
[Zara] I can only cure illness and mood. The mood recently though... ....
[Heroine] Hey, what do you mean Zara?
[Zara] No that was a joke, my lady.
[Zara] I've been working hard preparing for the party, I want it to be sunny by all means.
[Heroine] You're right. For a while, it will be extremely busy.
[Zara] Indeed.
Zara flips up an eyebrow.
[Heroine] (Wa, stepping on a land mine is... ...?)
[Zara] Because you've been begging your father, we're going to have a big dinner party outside.
[Zara] Earl Garland has entered five fingers into his only daughter's birthday party.
[Zara] I myself have been rushing around to prepare for this important occasion. Right?
[Heroine] Uh. Uuuh.
Sarcastic words along with a gaze that is directed towards you.
The usual birthdays are small and celebrated with family.
My selfishness is the cause for a big grand celebration this time.
[Heroine] (Also, I'm sorry.)
And I only say selfish, it is Zara, a servant who will have to do the preparations.
I, the one to bring it up complained at the rain while Zara is chilling leisurely. The rain makes you sarcastic.
[Heroine] However... ..., it is special.
Tommorow is a special day for me. It's not just a yearly event.
[Pearl] Yeah, Heroine-chan has been looking forward to it.
[Richie] Zara, do you understand?
[Zara] Fu fu. Young lady, I am sorry I said such things. The feelings of the lady Iwill never understand properly.
[Heroine] ... ... Eh?
Suddenly, Zara's voice eased. It is nothing but a soft sweet voice.
[Zara] I know you will enjoy it. So being able to prepare for it makes me happy, really.
[Heroine] (... ...I am spoiled)
[Heroine] Thank you, Zara.
Somehow, Zara is really sweet to me.
[Zara] Finally, at last.
[Heroine] ... ...Yes. Finally, at last.
My birthday is tommorow. 16... ..., the first time I went outside of the tower.
I had never been out of the tower before. It stands tall in the forest of Shall Mesean.
Other than the servants and Zara, I live alone in this tower.
Pearl and Richie was there to talk to me.
Whatever I wanted, I got. The tower was built just for me with no inconveniences.
But ..., I was longing for the outside world very much. Spread outside the window, the outside world.
[Heroine] For a long time, I was yearning.
I looked outside the window to see something different. The sky was grey and dull.
[Zara] Lady, do you know why you are trapped inside?
[Heroine] ... ... Eh, I know. Father cares about me a lot.
[Heroine] Painfully, I know.
[Zara] Lady is a member of the Lobeira race of Human kind. Edgar is worried and relunctant.
[Pearl] That is so, isn't it? It is because he's concerned.
[Richie] Isn't Heroine-chan cute?
[Pearl] Already, Richie is cold.
[Heroine] Sure Lobeira kind are weak and can fall ill easily, but... ....
[Heroine] Compared to other people, Lobeira can catch colds much easier my lovely pet.
[Zara] The lady saying such things, to easily catch a cold.
[Zara] How many colds do you think can cause you to lose your life?
[Heroine] ... ...Uh. But, isn't that an old story?
[Heroine] Now, when you get a cold you just stay in bed, right?
[Zara] That is so however ... ..., it could be a worse case.
[Heroine] ... ...Haa.
[Zara] Shut up, it might be annoying but I'm worried about the lady.
This conversation has been repeated 100 times.  With me who says that I want to go out, Zara that calms it.  On countless occasions, the conversation has been repeated.
Everyone worries about me, I understand well. 
But , I'll have worked hard in my own way to overcome the weak points of the Lobeira.
[Heroine] I am picky. Surprisingly, the medicine to prevent illness is sweet but, not good.
[Heroine] To get strength which I lacked I ran with the housemaid.
[Zara] Yes I was surprised to hear you were running with the housemaid on the first floor of the tower and the comparison.
[Heroine] ... ... ... ....
I was shocked and withdrew my gaze away from Zara.
[Pearl] By the way, we arrived together, right Richie?
[Richie] Isn't it amazing, in order to excercise to do that, Zara?
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
[Heroine] By the way, I won. Ehehe.
[Zara] I'm quite aware. Enough already, does the lady want to be scolded by me?
[Heroine] ... ... Ge.
It might have been unexpected behavior, but it's not being seen by anyone anyway. 
[Heroine] (Waking a sleeping dog.)* * stirring up trouble
Scolding the lady, what does that mean?
Being in this tower, me with Zara, Pearl, Richie, and only limited employees. 
They are no better than family to me anymore, no need for any cats to suffer.
[Zara] But lady is still a Lobeira.
[Heroine] Again. I wonder why I was born as a Lobeira.
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
Zara shrugs.
In Weblin, the Lobeira kind are very rare.
It is said that a Lobeira can be born in any race. But, most Lobeira are humans.
Their bodies are weak and they are sickly. There is not much known.
They have no special talents. Only their poor health.
Therefore, a child of the Lobeira species usually die before they reach adulthood.
In fact, I have come close to death from diseases many times.
I've lived all the way now, thanks to my father.
Father, his position as earl, his wealth.
He was chosen to be my  facilitator because of his vast knowlege in medicine. He also became my childhood friend.
So, it's not like I don't understand the feelings of my overprotective father. But, still.
[Heroine] ... ...Being trapped in the tower, it's too much.
[Pearl] Now, now cheer up. Think about tommorow.
[Richie] It's no good thinking about tommorow, Pearl?
[Pearl] Richie, like you know! Same dog.
[Richie] Right, I'm a dog. But, are there any problems?
[Pearl] Richie, cheeky!
[Richie] I'm telling the truth.
While listening to Pearl and Richie's conversation, I sighed.
In order to protect me against disease, my father isolated me from the world.
Since then I've been living in this tower.
My brother, step brother and also my father, my family, visit frequently.
Pearl, Richie, and Zara have always been by my side.
Saying I want to go outside in my condition is luxurious.
Still ..., I long for the  outside world by all means.
[Zara] Maybe, opportunity to go out a little bit at a time from now on might increase?
[Pearl] Yeah, cheer up.
[Richie] Yeah, if it's Heroine, we'll give you a hand.
[Heroine] I'll have... ...
 [Heroine] Yeah. It's a big step to go out to the garden on my birthday.
[Zara] Yes. The tenacity of the lady will win.
[Heroine] ... ... Well, well.
[Heroine] (... ...Tenacity wins.)
Exhausted may be the word.
Until the mouth became sour, continuing to plead, until Father's ear hurt, I was finally permitted to go outside on my birthday.
I think it is because the opportunity finally came out and the weather is bad. That's why..., I feel gloomy.
[Heroine] (If rain doesn't stop as it is......,　The party will be canceled.)
Will it, will the party be moved to the hall from the garden?
[Heroine] (But it was good out anyway.)

And.
[Heroine] ... ...!
[Pearl] ... ...!
[Richie] ... ...!
The door suddenly burst open, and Pearl and Richie involuntarily flinch.
I was surprised, my eyes widened.
[Nesso] Hey, Heroine! Happy birthday!
[Heroine] Nesso... ...!?
He stood there... ..., a tall man with a bouquet.
Naturally, I knew by sight, Nesso Garland.  He is my elder half brother.
[Nesso] Now, please accept my present?
[Heroine] Wa, wawa-tsu!
Nice smiles mingled with voices, Nesso held out and offered a huge bouquet to me.
Did you go through the rain to come up here, on top of the petals in full bloom, a droplet of water rests.
[Heroine] (To bring it in the rain, that would be difficult... ...)
[Heroine] Thank you, Nesso ... ...! Such beautiful flowers but, was it hard to bring in the rain?
[Nesso] Ahaha, no such thing. You're so cute. It was to make you happy.
The bouquet I recieved from Nesso is surprisingly fresh. A sweet fragrance comes from the wet bouquet.
[Heroine] (Smells good.)
[Heroine] Fufu, it smells really good.
[Nesso] Right? I'm glad you like it.
[Nesso] I saw it on a flower shop on the way back, so I bought it.
[Nesso] Ah, of course I'll have a proper present prepared tommorow. Look forward to it.
[Heroine] I'm happy with just the flowers but, there are more gifts? Hehe, I'm excited.
[Nesso] Yes, it's something that you'll like.
[Pearl] Wait Nesso-sama, what about Pearl and Richie?
[Richie] Yeah Nesso-sama, we were defending Heroine-chan.
[Nesso] Ahaha, of course. I've also brought treats for you two.
[Pearl] Yay!
[Richie] Wa!
[Nesso] But, you will protect her still right? Heroine is my only princess.
[Zara] Seriously, what are you saying after your return?
[Nesso] Zara, don't you feel the same?
[Zara] Yes yes. Lady, if you wish I'll take your flowers. I'll put them in a vase.
[Heroine] You think so?
The flowers given to me by Nesso were entrusted to Zara. He carried the bouquet out of the room.
Suddenly I remember.
[Heroine] (I forgot.)
[Heroine] Nesso, welcome home.
[Nesso] ... ....
I greeted him again and his eyes smiled.
[Nesso] I'm home, Heroine. Come here. As always, give me a hug?
[Heroine] Yes, of course.
Urged by a mischievous little voice, I held my arms out and hugged Nesso.
Even if you hug him really hard, Nesso's body doesn't budge an inch.
Big arm around the back of me, I was embraced.
[Heroine] (From Nesso is the fragrance of flowers.)
It must have been from the bouquet. It is a sweet smell.
Being sent to defend the country, I understand.
He fights for the country in case of such emergencies, I understand.
Still.
[Heroine] It's not too dangerous?
[Nesso]......  Ah, I understand. Don't worry too much.
[Zara] Seriously. Your worrying won't do much good.
The flower gotten from Nesso, Zara finished arranging in the vase goes back into the  room, the conversation starts. 
[Nesso] I am the best swordsman and an excellent knight of Weblin. So, it's okay.
[Heroine] ... ...Yes.
[Nesso] There, good girl.
To calm me down, he gave me a kiss and patted my hair with his huge hands.
[Zara] Hey, hey. Nesso, can you quit clinging to the lady?
[Nesso] Eh? Why?
[Zara] It is because you are wet. Here, a towel. Use it.
[Nesso] Ah, yes. My bad, Heroine. Wasn't it cold?
[Heroine] No, it was cool.
Nesso using the towel he recieved from Zara, begins to wipe his hair and clothes.
[Heroine] After all, isn't the rain outside cruel?
[Nesso] That's right... ... The ground was muddy, it was really troublesome making the horse run.
[Zara] ... ...That was unreasonable, you should have waited for the rain to stop to return.
[Nesso] But, what if I couldn't make it in time for Heroine's birthday?
[Zara] You could have been hurt seriously.
[Nesso] It's okay, I'm alright. I am a knight. I know how to handle a horse enough.
[Zara] But still, you should try to be more careful.
[Pearl] Yeah, worrying is no good.
[Richie] Yeah, Pearl will be plenty enough, right~?
[Pearl] Wait a minute. Richie~!
[Nesso] Ahahaha, you guys never change.
In that conversation, Zara sighs while Nesso laughs loudly.
[Heroine] (It doesn't change.)
After becoming a knight at the castle serving Weblin, Nesso's relationship with Zara hasn't changed.
I am called "lady" by Zara, while Nesso calls me by name.
The old times are envied, when Zara used to get mixed up and call me by name.
[Heroine] (After all, Zara has given up to the pardon. )
Now, the resignation is attached if as such, too.  There might be light-heartedness of the same gender......, Zara and Nesso have known each each other longer ..more than me... 
[Zara] Ah, yes.  The tower is making preparations for supper... ...
[Zara] Nesso, what are you going to do?
[Nesso] I want to eat. It's been a long time since I've eaten together with Heroine.
[Zara] Then I will contact the main building.
[Heroine] Ah, invite Father also. So everyone can eat together.
[Zara] Yes. Then let's propose this to Edgar-sama.
[Nesso] Haha, without a proposal, I would still fly at Heroine's invitation.
[Zara] Well, such a thing to do.
Usually, Zara, Pearl, Richie, and I are in the tower. And, there are a few employees.  Father lives in the main building of the same site. 
However, Father isn't interested in me at all.
Rather, the confinement is not excessive thinking.
[Heroine] (In the main building where a lot of people are going in and out, what illnesses are brought are not understood very much.)
It is unexpected, the overprotection.  Only for me, such a tower has been built.
[Heroine] (Well, they came here individually to visit. )
Nesso worries about me, who can't go out of the tower.
[Nesso] Then, let's invite Father. Today we'll eat supper with the whole family.
[Heroine] Eh, amazing! I'll look forward to it!
We exchanged smiles though, a look outside the window told us the rain was pouring even harder.
Like Nesso said, Father accepted our invitation to supper with pleasure.
[Edgar] Heroine will turn 16 tomorrow.
[Heroine] Yes, I'll be a lady.
It was unnatural, his attitude clearly. Graceful Father tried but, the results weren't really effective.
With a smile, he gazed at me as one would when watching a little child.
[Heroine] (Surely, these are the same eyes I have when I see Pearl and Richie.)
[Heroine] Now... ... Father, I'm turning 16 and an adult.
16, the age when an aristocrat's daughters become brides. This year I should be treated as an adult.
If that's the case, I wish.
[Edgar] Haha. You will always be my little princess.
[Nesso] Yes, that is so. Heroine is my cute princess.
[Pearl] No, she is Pearl's princess.
[Richie] Un, aren't you Richie's princess?
[Heroine] ... ...Haa, good grief.
[Zara] Oh, when did Pearl and Richie become human?
[Pearl] I wanted to sit at the table with everybody.
[Richie] Not being able to be with friends is unpleasant.
[Nesso] Even if you guys become humans, Heroine is my princess, right?
[Zara] Enough, Nesso. That is immature.
Our family and Father, they are still like this.
[Nesso] But, yeah. Heroine will turn 16.
[Zara] Yes, the lady will be 16.
[Edgar] Heroine, 16... ..., huh.
[Pearl] 16... ....
[Richie] Yeah, 16. Heroine-chan can kiss now.
[Zara] Hey, Richie, when did you remember such a thing.
[Richie] Nothing?  Besides, when Richie was a dog I licked Heroine all the time.
[Pearl] Wa, wa!? Fuwa, I'm so happy when I think about it.
[Nesso] What!?
[Zara] Nesso, the other party are children.
[Nesso] But... .... Licking... ....
[Heroine] ... ... Err, everyone?
Everyone cherishes me. From their words you can tell.
Being valued, although it makes me happy... ....
The family's reactions, it makes me embarassed.
[Heroine] (......  Oh dear, though the feelings are understood.)
I was a Lobeira. Although falling ill and staying in bed is rare nowadays for me, when I was a child I was sick a lot.
 I slept when it rains, I slept when the wind strengthened,  I slept even if it was hot,  I slept even if it was cold. 
Each time Father, Nesso, and Zara worried anxiously while I was impatient with them.
[Heroine] (I was not an easy child to raise.)
Born as a Lobeira, the doctor said I wouldn't have long to live.
Father, Nesso, and Zara protected and raised me. Thus, I am here now.
[Heroine] (Even though I want to show my gratitude, I can't.)
They'll judge my feelings.
[Heroine] (However, I'll seem like a cruel girl, right... ....)
These three people who value me. I understand.
I understand... ...Still, the world outside the tower, I yearn for it.
I want to go outside the tower. The garden where the sun shines. I want to walk and feel the blowing wind. I want to feel the ground with the back of my feet.
Everyday, such desires are piled up.
Therefore, on my 16th birthday to go outside I had to bothered my Father.
Until now, I was protected in this tower. I didn't give up even when I was told it was useless. I kept pleading persistently.
[Heroine] (Earlier Zara had said... ...Tenacity wins.)
The result is being able to celebrate my birthday in the garden.
[Heroine] Hey, Father, I, tomorrow is my birthday. Father, it's useless if I don't live with you.
[Edgar] Living with me... ...? That's a cute thing to say, Heroine. I'll go back to my room in the tower right away.
[Heroine] That's not it! The opposite. Opposite. I want to move to the main building.
Father, I don't mean that I'm inviting you to the tower. I want to go outside the tower.
[Nesso] Ahahahahaha. Heroine, it seems to me Father is playing dumb on purpose.
[Heroine] Father... ...!
[Edgar] Hahahaha!
When I pout, Father laughs but, afterwards he has a serious thoughtful face.
[Edgar] However. I'm glad for your feelings, Heroine. I'm frightened for you. It's terrifying.
[Edgar] Up to now, you have lived in this tower. You breathe pure clean air.
[Edgar] Once you go out into the world... ..., won't you get awfully sick?
[Nesso] Zodiba is disappearing. Ten years ago, the world was a cruel place.
[Zara] I would be angry if anything happened to the lady.
[Heroine] Such a thing... ....
[Heroine] Don't say that.
I, to what extent can I trust this body? There is a part that cannot be understood.
Recently, I seldom get ill and stay in bed... ...,what factor I am I not understanding?
Was it because I grew? Is life in the tower good for the body? Or is it another factor?
[Heroine] (... ... It is difficult.)
To go out, the wanting to touch the world outside. I fear the world on the outside.
[Edgar] I refuse, Heroine. I've lost both of my wives to illness. Until now you... ..., I can't lose you too.
[Heroine] Father... ....
[Pearl] ... ...Heroine-chan, don't make that kind of face.
[Richie] It's safe, you have Richie and Pearl for protection.
[Edgar] ... ...Yes, however ... ....
Nesso's mother, my mother. Both died immediately, after giving birth to us.
[Heroine] (So, isn't that right? I, my features are similiar to my mother, when a daughter like me is lost, my father will not recover.)
For that reason, Father tries to defend me with what could be called overprotection.
That overprotection has given me a sort of nickname, [A beautiful cage for a princess] I have heard from surrounding aristocrats.
I was confined in this high tower, a caged princess.
[Heroine] (That name whether lovely or not, is impossible to say... ...)
Hearing that nickname for the first few times, and not being able live up to it, puts me at a loss.
[Heroine] (It's just the opposite, if you see. Curiousity might rise and create rumors.)
There's only a few that are permitted to set foot in the tower of Shall Messean, family and a small number of employees.
[Heroine] ... ...Ah.
[Nesso] Oh? How are you doing? You're face shows that you've recalled something.
[Heroine] Er, now that I think about it... .... Thinking about the people who could come to the tower, reminded me of Mejojo and Auger.
[Heroine] At tomorrow's dinner party, Mejojo and Auger will also come.
[Nesso] Ah... .... His Highness Mejojo and his Highness Auger.
[Edgar] ... ...Yes.
[Heroine] (... ...Oh?)
Nesso's and Father's expressions suddenly became cloudy.
Are there any reasons? I asked for help with a glance, Zara sighed and looked troubled.
[Zara] Mejojo-sama, has declined your invitation.
[Heroine] ... ...Eh.
[Nesso] He's rejected me several times, he has also rejected Father formally. But, thanks... ...
[Nesso] Stubborn.
[Edgar] Nesso, stop it.
[Edgar] His Highness Mejojo, likes you and it shows.
[Heroine] Ehhh~?
Mejojo and Auger. These two's full names are very long.
With Mejojo Von Garibaldi and Auger Von Garibaldi.
The Garibaldi have ruled this country for six generations. His Majesty's heir is one of the twin princes.
They are curious about me, how many years ago. On a certain day, Father was called on by the sixth Garibaldi generation's Majesty.
[Sixth Garibaldi King] Edgar. Your daugher, she will grow up without the outside world in her tower.
[Sixth Garibaldi King] I know you are relunctant because she is a Lobeira. But, it is pitiful.
[Sixth Garibaldi King] Mejojo and Auger are interested in your daughter. How about they become her companions?
If, there is going to be wind.
"How about they become her companions?" His majesty, the king said. Even though it sounded like a question, it was an order.
The tower clamored. I was prepared, my hair was done and my appearance was polished.
And since then, every few months, Mejojo and Auger came to play with me.
I call them by name because they told me so.
[Heroine] (I like it, I do.)
Except for this time, which he refused. The prince visits personally on many occasions. 
If it was true, it would be a happy story. For an aristocrat, kin to royalty.
If it was normal, wouldn't be a good thing for me, an aristocrat's daughter to be seen by royalty.
But Father and Nesso have scowls. The reason must be that I am still a Lobeira.
Even if it goes up to the royal palace, I to whom the body is weak cannot become familiar with the life of the royal palace,worries whether if the body will ruin.
[Heroine] (I......,　Though I am determined as aristocrat's daughter)
I've lived up to now, the aristocrat's daughter has recieved many blessings to live.
Therefore, as the daughter of an aristocrat, I've been thinking of accepting a political marriage as compensation.
[Heroine] Mejojo, I don't particularly hate you, but... .... There is no desire.
It is a connection with your favorite person, marriages made from love at the beginning are rare.
[Heroine] So much enthusiasm?
[Edgar] Ah... ...Though I have refused several times, the question of marriage is brought up.
[Nesso] His Majesty's resignation is too bad.
[Edgar] Nesso. Don't say such things.
[Nesso] It's okay, Father.  I do not intend to speak of this outside. This is private family matters. May I speak my true opinions?
[Edgar]... ...Nesso.
[Nesso] Their recent arrogance, Father. Will you hear it? Another race is completely looked down upon.
[Nesso] Leaving Heroine with people like them... ....
[Edgar] Nesso, you are a knight. As a knight of this country, consequently, it is likely you have to swear fealty to the royal family.
[Edgar] Especially you, the leader of the division Guraifrita. You er will have to... ....
[Nesso] I will play the role of the knight. Enough talk about Heroine marrying.
[Nesso]  To begin with, Heroine will be my wife. Right, Heroine?
[Heroine] Eh!?
[Zara] Seriously, Nesso. Such things to declare... ....
[Nesso] Hahahaha.
[Heroine] (Joke... ..., right?)
[Edgar] ... ...Haa.
[Heroine] (Though Nesso needs to be reproved... ....Father is tired.)
There are rumors that next term's king, the heir prince wants a girl. It's probably not true.
[Heroine] (I'm nothing. Do I need to be desperately defended by Father and Nesso so much?)
[Heroinne] Even if I am the only daughter of the Galland family. The family still needs an obedient daughter in law.
[Nesso] No good! You don't know anything.
[Heroine] (... ...Uh)
Nesso dismissed the idea with a prompt answer. Father looked only at Nesso and agreed, he nodded with a bitter face.
[Heroine] Somehow, I don't want to marry either.
[Heroine] Enough, because both are overprotective.
Two people want to be important to me.
[Nesso] Because you are still a child. Becoming a bride, something like that, can you do it? When the time comes, I will be ready.
[Heroine] (... ...Me?)
Then, Nesso was interrupted. Two unexpected people.
[Pearl] No~! She'll marry me!
[Richie] Pearl and her marrying is impossible, impossible.
[Pearl] What? When I am no good? Richie is also no good.
Having kept quiet at the meal until now, they are crazy.
These two people made the plates empty. They bickered cheerfully.
[Heroine] (Ah now, my precious pets.)
[Heroine] Fu. Now, Pearl and Richie. Am I a bride?
[Richie] If you marry Richie, then we can be together for a long time. If so, then I want to make Heroine a bride.
[Pearl] Even I think so. Richie is tricky.
[Heroine] Ahahahaha.
[Heroine] (The two people, love and marriage. They don't understand well.
For these two young people, The marriage seems to be the only method to be with their favorite person for a long time. 
[Heroine] (Oh dear, are you sure you're not making a mistake?)
What is marriage? Usually, I must. But, in my position, I'm not allowed.
[Zara] ... ...Ah.
[Zara] Pearl, Richie. Will you always make me tell you not speak to the lady in such a way?
[Zara] Calling the lady with the honorific chan in front of the master.
[Richie] But, Heroine-chan said so!
[Pearl] Uh huh! Heroine-chan wanted us  to!
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
[Heroine] (... ...Ge!)
Zara threw a glance at me.
[Zara] ... ...Lady?
[Heroine] Because... .... It's cute.
I mumbled my excuse.
From the other party's standpoint, Pearl and Richie are my employees.
Zara is in a position where he should understand but, he's still naggy... ....
[Heroine] (Pearl and Richie are still children.......　 This, I thought it was good for now. )
[Heroine] Only in this tower, you say?
[Pearl] Yeah! Outside the tower, Heroine is called Miss.
[Richie] When Richie is an ill-natured child, Heroine-chan is troubled. That's why I'll properly call Heroine, Miss. I'm different from Pearl.
[Pearl] Hey, Richie~!
[Richie] He he~ ♪
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
[Nesso] Well, isn't it good then? If it's only in the tower?
[Nesso] Something different, if these guys go out, won't it be good? What does Father think?
[Edgar] These young children looking after Heroine, to leave her in their care. You should think.
[Zara] ... ...Good grief. Since, Master Nesso is also sweet. Don't you think disciplining a dog at the start is essential?
[Nesso] Haha, is that so?
[Zara] It is so.
Zara seemed a little worried. His eyebrows were arched.
[Heroine] (Zara is also the same as ever.)
Zara calls Nesso "Master" because he was originally Nesso's employee but, I call him by name.
So, it is sweet when I'm understood by two people. The words from our mouth don't show our mutual feelings. Such trivial matters but, the truth is this family comforts each other.
However, Zara doesn't respect the matters of Nesso and other things, there is mainly no considering it at all. 
The relationship between the two people if you could see in reality, shaped submission.
[Nesso] Well, still. Even you too, Heroine.
[Pearl] Ehhh! Why!?
[Richie] Why!?
[Nesso] The man that becomes the husband of Heroine... ..., it is so. He has to be at least strong as I if not stronger.
[Zara] Good grief, what a thing to say. Is there a man who could defeat you with a sword?
[Nesso] It might be possible.
[Heroine] ... ... I, I have thought that it is impossible to marry.
[Nesso] Hahaha. If there is no one, I'll continue to protect you.
[Heroine] Eh?
[Heroine] (The responsibility a while ago was this?)
A glimpse at Nesso shows that his face is oddly calm.
[Heroine] (Now, only half of our blood is connected.)
Among aristocrats, between brothers and sisters, following younger brother etc, the marriage among close relatives is not unusual either, but.
[Heroine] Once in a while, Nesso is dangerous... ... My heart is skipping because of Big Brother. How foolish.
[Zara] ... ...Haa.
[Heroine] Ya!?
In the pause of the conversation, a strong wind blew.  The window frame rings annoyingly with a creak. 
Because it is at a high position, the wind strength : though it's the usual......, The storm might be still near. 
[Zara] It looks like the wind has strengthened... ...There might be a storm. Could tomorrow's dinner party be postponed?
[Edgar] ... ... Yes. In this weather, it might be difficult.
[Heroine] Oh well... ....
For the first time, a dinner part outside the tower.
It would be a lie if I said I didn't expect it, it looked like the weather was going to bad before, selfishness cannot be said.
[Heroine] Postponement regrettably ... ....  Not discontinuance but, postponement?  If so, I'll obediently enjoy.
[Edgar] Sorry, Heroine. When the weather settles down... ....
[Nesso] ... ...Nn?
[Edgar] Nesso?
[Nesso] Shh... ...!
[Heroine] (What is it?)
Interrupting Father's words, Nesso puts up a finger to his lips and issues instructions.
Seeing his signal, we obediently stopped talking.
[Nesso] As expected. Horses' footsteps. It's muffled by the sound of the wind and rain.
[Edgar] When a visitor visits, how did I not hear anything... ...? What on earth?
[Nesso] Understood.
Nesso quickly stands up from the table, he comes near to a window and confirms the action outside.
[Nesso] ... ...Keh!
[Heroine] (What, how come nothing good has happened?)
The face of Nesso is serious.  We also stand from ours seats, one after another, and come to the window.
[Heroine] What... ...?
The voice, it trembles instinctively.
As usual, inside the rain pours down hard.  Looking down from the window ahead, In the garden, the knight who had extended over the horse circled this tower over and over again.
Swinging, the light of the lantern shakes. 
[Edgar] Can it be... ....His Highness Mejojo and his Highness Auger's bodyguard... ...?
[Nesso] That. What in the world... ...
[Zara] Too much, you can't see through the storm.
[Nesso] ... ...Yeah.
[Nesso] Heroine, go retire. Father also, please retire to your room. I will see to this situation.
[Edgar] Yes, I'll leave it to you.
As soon as he said that, Nesso went out of the room. 
[Maid 1] Yaaaaaah! Ah, you are ... ...!?
[Maid 2] Hurry, inform Edgar-sama of this... ...!!
[Heroine] ... ...!!
The commotion's happening in the downstairs, I have heard it here. It has gotten through the  knights who were surrounding the tower, it has invaded.  The armor is jingles, it runs in the stairs and the footstep that goes up is heard. 
[Heroine] Na, what... ...? What... ...?
[Nesso] You retire, Heroine.
[Heroine] Uh, yes... ...
Nesso places his hand on his sword. I get away from the room's entrance.
Before long, the footsteps coming up the stairs are running, it stops in front of the room where we are... .... 
[Bodyguard 1] ... ... ... ....
[Bodyguard 2] ... ... ... ....
The room was silent as if snow was crumbling, there were two knights of the Cat race.
Having promptly reacted to it, it is Pearl and Richie.  The two people, they assume the role of the watchdog at emergencies. 
The two transform from human to beast, they bark while they spring towards the two knights who intruded.
[Zara] Pearl! Richie!
The two people were called,  to spur them on, possibly.
[Bodyguard 1] Chi... ...!!
[Bodyguard 2] Watchdogs... ...!
If the other party is a usual thief or something, even if it is only Richie, it is likely for her to have been able to catch them without Pearl. 
They appear to be excellent knights.
An arm and a foot, Pearl and Richie are knocked down without mercy.
[Pearl] Ach!
[Richie] Uyah... ...!
The small bodies of the two had been easily thrown down to the ground.
[Heroine] Pearl! Richie!
[Nesso] How cruel... ...!
[Bodyguard 1] Self defense.
[Bodyguard 2] If you don't want to see anybody get hurt, don't move.
[Heroine] Terrible... ...!
The knights gave us warning, Zara stopped Pearl and Richie.
Do not against them. If you do go against them, I don't know what will happen.
The knights confirmed that there was no danger and motioned outside the entrance.
As if waiting for the signal, Prince Auger came in with a smile.
[Heroine] ... ...Tsu!
Under this abnormal circumstance, we fear Auger's smiling face which does not change.
Instinctively Nesso's finger tips go to his sheath.
[Auger] Hey, Heroine. Long time no see.
[Heroine] Auger... ...?
[Auger] I'm sorry to interrupt such a happy supper, I didn't want to be rough. I just came here to catch a witch.
[Heroine] Witch... ...?
A bad feeling.
In this room, the only woman is me. And, above all, Auger's glance is directed right towards me.
[Nesso] Prince... ...!! Even if it is the prince, you aren't allowed to visit.
[Nesso] Please, remove your knights from this room! This is my younger sister's room!
[Nesso] Stepping into a lady's room, that is not the behavior of a knight!
[Auger] Well, I'm not a knight I'm a prince and I'm also a court musician, so isn't okay?
[Auger] I think so too but, let's set that aside. It can't be helped, Nesso-kun.
[Nesso] It can't be helped , huh? Please give me a good explanation!
[Auger] Well, you're hot-blooded. Once your head cools?
[Nesso] ... ...Keh.
[Zara] Nesso, it is useless.
[Auger] Hey, Rabbit-kun keep quiet. Lately Zodiba has been spreading in this area.
[Edgar] I also have recieved a report as the lord of this land... ....But, what does that have to do with anything... ...!
[Auger] Yes. It does. Zodiba has been spreading again, the work of the witch at the top of the tower.
[Heroine] (On top of the tower, witch?)
[Heroine] You mean... ..., my work?
[Zara] What are you saying!?... ... These kinds of things, lies!
[Auger] I said shut up, right? Now, who is talking?
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
[Auger] People from this region have been coming directly to the castle. Don't we have to do something, right?
[Auger] It must be your work. That is why. Heroine Galland.
[Auger] --... I've come to arrest you.
[Nesso/Auger] Stop messing around!
[Auger] Kukuku, hahaha, ah too funny. Really,  you're so predictable. Simple minded, don't you think~?
[Nesso] ... ... Ugh, bast... ....
[Nesso] Ba? St? Ard?
[Zara] ... ...Nesso, it is useless.
[Nesso] ... ...Mch ... ....
Outside, there is a storm.
Roar of the wind, rain crashing against the window.
It was a disturbing sound but, Auger was smiling and laughing happily.[Heroine] ... ...Unpleasant rain. It doesn't seem like it will stop.
Large drops of rain are beating the window , I breathe a sigh.
Sofa is set up beside big window.  It is settled at a favorite position, I dimly look at the outside of the window. 
When looking up at cloudy weather in the other side of the window, [Zaaaaa], Rain that rains hard ..solving.. :, Like the shower of a white string that pours down from the heaven. 
[Heroine] ... ... Ha.
[Pearl] ... ... Ha.
[Richie] ... ... Haa.
Mimicing me, two breaths were heard coming in succession because it was lonesome from my feet. 
I glance from the window to my feet.
[Heroine] (... ... Waa. My dogs are really down... ...)
The dog brothers become flat underfoot.
Because of the rain, is it because we can't go out? They're usually so energetic, but are gloomy today.
[Pearl] Hurry, stop raining.
[Richie] I want to play outside.
[Pearl] Haa.
[Richie] Haa.
[Pearl] There is nothing fun to do. Let's play with Heroine-chan.
[Richie] I want new toys.
[Heroine] Both aren't selfish.
[Pearl] Boo.
[Richie] Boo. Boo.
[Pearl] Haa.
[Richie] Haa~.
Again the two sighed.
I  do not welcome this weather either but....
When you see two people more depressed than you, it makes you feel better somehow.
[Pearl] Heroine, do you also dislike the rain like me?
[Heroine] ... That's right. It's usually not so... I don't like today's rain though.
[Richie] I also hate the rain. You can't play outside and your fur is somehow unrefined.
[Heroine] Ah, that's true... ....
[Heroine] The hair swells with humidity but, I don't understand these feelings because I am long haired.
Pearl and Richie's  fur is sticking up. It's not a problem though because it is cute.
[Heroine] (Softly unrefined... ...)
Their coat is unmanagable due to humidity, two animals ... or rather, two people who are flat by my feet are so lovely I want to pet them.
[Heroine] Ah, geez. So lovely!
My impulses urge me to hug the two at my feet.
[Pearl] Uwaa!
[Richie] Eyaa!
The two are struggling, flapping their arms and legs, but I don't care. When I bring them to my face, there was the gentle smell of the sun.
[Heroine] Fu fu fu, both of you smell good. You are warm and soft.
[Pearl] Hahaha! What are you doing~?!
[Richie] Heroine, that tickles~!
[Heroine] Fu fu fu fu fu.
Hearing the joyful screams of the two, I hug them even harder as we laugh.
They were strays taken in to be servants by my father.
I was frail and had to stay in this lonely tower. They weren't servants to me but, my friends.
I actually like dogs more than people. They are so cute today.
I finally put them gently on the floor.
[Pearl] The hugging has ended?
[Richie] Pearl you're so spoiled. Just like a kid.
[Pearl] No! It's different! I'm an adult!
[Richie] Heh~? Fuu~.
[Heroine] Fu fu, don't fight.
[Pearl] ... ... Ye~es.
[Richie] Ye~es.
[Pearl] But, hurry up and stop raining.
[Richie] Yeah, rain is nasty.
Usually, it is not so, however it is, ......Don't you think?
 For me who cannot go out outside the tower, The weather is a wonderful element that changes scenery outside the window. 
The rain which creates a lazy atmosphere is not usually hated.
[Zara] Fufu, three depressed people. Is the rain unpleasant?
[Heroine] Ah, Zara.
I  turned  to the voice from behind. And there stood my butler Zara Skene, my childhood friend.
He is a of the Rabbit race. He was orphaned from war and was picked up by my father.
He was taken in before she was born, and despite his position as her butler, he’s just like siblings with my older half-brother - Nesso Galland.
But as the position would be to the only daughter of his employer and employee...
I was in his care from an early age, indebted to him anyhow.
[Zara] Pearl and Richie don't have such long faces because of the rain. You'll make Heroine depressed.
[Heroine] .......  It is my 16th birthday tomorrow.  But, it's raining really hard today.......
[Zara] Yes indeed.
[Pearl] Yes indeed~. Zara is so laid back. 
[Richie] Yeah. It's a special celebration. Heroine is one year older.
[Heroine] Richie... .... what does that mean... ....
[Zara] Seriously... .... Is that how you talk to your master and superior?
[Zara] It seems you do not have enough discipline.
[Pearl] There is no such thing. Me and Richie are good right, Heroine-chan?
[Heroine] Yes, yes.
[Pearl] Yes!
[Heroine] Change!
[Pearl] Yes!
[Heroine] Hive five!
[Pearl] Yes!!
[Heroine] All right all right, good boy good boy! Here's a treat.
[Pearl] Mmph... ...! Delicious!
[Zara] Ahaha. Well done, I've lost to you.
[Zara] Nevertheless, it is tommorrow. It would be good if it was nice and sunny.
[Richie] Since tommorow is Heroine-chan's birthday, call the sun before tommorow.
[Heroine] Richie, don't say reckless things.
[Richie] Why? Can't Zara cure anything?
[Zara] I can only cure illness and mood. The mood recently though... ....
[Heroine] Hey, what do you mean Zara?
[Zara] No that was a joke, my lady.
[Zara] I've been working hard preparing for the party, I want it to be sunny by all means.
[Heroine] You're right. For a while, it will be extremely busy.
[Zara] Indeed.
Zara flips up an eyebrow.
[Heroine] (Wa, stepping on a land mine is... ...?)
[Zara] Because you've been begging your father, we're going to have a big dinner party outside.
[Zara] Earl Garland has entered five fingers into his only daughter's birthday party.
[Zara] I myself have been rushing around to prepare for this important occasion. Right?
[Heroine] Uh. Uuuh.
Sarcastic words along with a gaze that is directed towards you.
The usual birthdays are small and celebrated with family.
My selfishness is the cause for a big grand celebration this time.
[Heroine] (Also, I'm sorry.)
And I only say selfish, it is Zara, a servant who will have to do the preparations.
I, the one to bring it up complained at the rain while Zara is chilling leisurely. The rain makes you sarcastic.
[Heroine] However... ..., it is special.
Tommorow is a special day for me. It's not just a yearly event.
[Pearl] Yeah, Heroine-chan has been looking forward to it.
[Richie] Zara, do you understand?
[Zara] Fu fu. Young lady, I am sorry I said such things. The feelings of the lady Iwill never understand properly.
[Heroine] ... ... Eh?
Suddenly, Zara's voice eased. It is nothing but a soft sweet voice.
[Zara] I know you will enjoy it. So being able to prepare for it makes me happy, really.
[Heroine] (... ...I am spoiled)
[Heroine] Thank you, Zara.
Somehow, Zara is really sweet to me.
[Zara] Finally, at last.
[Heroine] ... ...Yes. Finally, at last.
My birthday is tommorow. 16... ..., the first time I went outside of the tower.
I had never been out of the tower before. It stands tall in the forest of Shall Mesean.
Other than the servants and Zara, I live alone in this tower.
Pearl and Richie was there to talk to me.
Whatever I wanted, I got. The tower was built just for me with no inconveniences.
But ..., I was longing for the outside world very much. Spread outside the window, the outside world.
[Heroine] For a long time, I was yearning.
I looked outside the window to see something different. The sky was grey and dull.
[Zara] Lady, do you know why you are trapped inside?
[Heroine] ... ... Eh, I know. Father cares about me a lot.
[Heroine] Painfully, I know.
[Zara] Lady is a member of the Lobeira race of Human kind. Edgar is worried and relunctant.
[Pearl] That is so, isn't it? It is because he's concerned.
[Richie] Isn't Heroine-chan cute?
[Pearl] Already, Richie is cold.
[Heroine] Sure Lobeira kind are weak and can fall ill easily, but... ....
[Heroine] Compared to other people, Lobeira can catch colds much easier my lovely pet.
[Zara] The lady saying such things, to easily catch a cold.
[Zara] How many colds do you think can cause you to lose your life?
[Heroine] ... ...Uh. But, isn't that an old story?
[Heroine] Now, when you get a cold you just stay in bed, right?
[Zara] That is so however ... ..., it could be a worse case.
[Heroine] ... ...Haa.
[Zara] Shut up, it might be annoying but I'm worried about the lady.
This conversation has been repeated 100 times.  With me who says that I want to go out, Zara that calms it.  On countless occasions, the conversation has been repeated.
Everyone worries about me, I understand well. 
But , I'll have worked hard in my own way to overcome the weak points of the Lobeira.
[Heroine] I am picky. Surprisingly, the medicine to prevent illness is sweet but, not good.
[Heroine] To get strength which I lacked I ran with the housemaid.
[Zara] Yes I was surprised to hear you were running with the housemaid on the first floor of the tower and the comparison.
[Heroine] ... ... ... ....
I was shocked and withdrew my gaze away from Zara.
[Pearl] By the way, we arrived together, right Richie?
[Richie] Isn't it amazing, in order to excercise to do that, Zara?
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
[Heroine] By the way, I won. Ehehe.
[Zara] I'm quite aware. Enough already, does the lady want to be scolded by me?
[Heroine] ... ... Ge.
It might have been unexpected behavior, but it's not being seen by anyone anyway. 
[Heroine] (Waking a sleeping dog.)* * stirring up trouble
Scolding the lady, what does that mean?
Being in this tower, me with Zara, Pearl, Richie, and only limited employees. 
They are no better than family to me anymore, no need for any cats to suffer.
[Zara] But lady is still a Lobeira.
[Heroine] Again. I wonder why I was born as a Lobeira.
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
Zara shrugs.
In Weblin, the Lobeira kind are very rare.
It is said that a Lobeira can be born in any race. But, most Lobeira are humans.
Their bodies are weak and they are sickly. There is not much known.
They have no special talents. Only their poor health.
Therefore, a child of the Lobeira species usually die before they reach adulthood.
In fact, I have come close to death from diseases many times.
I've lived all the way now, thanks to my father.
Father, his position as earl, his wealth.
He was chosen to be my  facilitator because of his vast knowlege in medicine. He also became my childhood friend.
So, it's not like I don't understand the feelings of my overprotective father. But, still.
[Heroine] ... ...Being trapped in the tower, it's too much.
[Pearl] Now, now cheer up. Think about tommorow.
[Richie] It's no good thinking about tommorow, Pearl?
[Pearl] Richie, like you know! Same dog.
[Richie] Right, I'm a dog. But, are there any problems?
[Pearl] Richie, cheeky!
[Richie] I'm telling the truth.
While listening to Pearl and Richie's conversation, I sighed.
In order to protect me against disease, my father isolated me from the world.
Since then I've been living in this tower.
My brother, step brother and also my father, my family, visit frequently.
Pearl, Richie, and Zara have always been by my side.
Saying I want to go outside in my condition is luxurious.
Still ..., I long for the  outside world by all means.
[Zara] Maybe, opportunity to go out a little bit at a time from now on might increase?
[Pearl] Yeah, cheer up.
[Richie] Yeah, if it's Heroine, we'll give you a hand.
[Heroine] I'll have... ...
 [Heroine] Yeah. It's a big step to go out to the garden on my birthday.
[Zara] Yes. The tenacity of the lady will win.
[Heroine] ... ... Well, well.
[Heroine] (... ...Tenacity wins.)
Exhausted may be the word.
Until the mouth became sour, continuing to plead, until Father's ear hurt, I was finally permitted to go outside on my birthday.
I think it is because the opportunity finally came out and the weather is bad. That's why..., I feel gloomy.
[Heroine] (If rain doesn't stop as it is......,　The party will be canceled.)
Will it, will the party be moved to the hall from the garden?
[Heroine] (But it was good out anyway.)
And.
[Heroine] ... ...!
[Pearl] ... ...!
[Richie] ... ...!
The door suddenly burst open, and Pearl and Richie involuntarily flinch.
I was surprised, my eyes widened.
[Nesso] Hey, Heroine! Happy birthday!
[Heroine] Nesso... ...!?
He stood there... ..., a tall man with a bouquet.
Naturally, I knew by sight, Nesso Garland.  He is my elder half brother.
[Nesso] Now, please accept my present?
[Heroine] Wa, wawa-tsu!
Nice smiles mingled with voices, Nesso held out and offered a huge bouquet to me.
Did you go through the rain to come up here, on top of the petals n full bloom, a droplet of water rests.
[Heroine] (To bring it in the rain, that would be difficult... ...)
[Heroine] Thank you, Nesso ... ...! Such beautiful flowers but, was it hard to bring in the rain?
[Nesso] Ahaha, no such thing. You're so cute. It was to make you happy.
The bouquet I recieved from Nesso is surprisingly fresh. A sweet fragrance comes from the wet bouquet.
[Heroine] (Smells good.)
[Heroine] Fufu, it smells really good.
[Nesso] Right? I'm glad you like it.
[Nesso] I saw it on a flower shop on the way back, so I bought it.
[Nesso] Ah, of course I'll have a proper present prepared tommorow. Look forward to it.
[Heroine] I'm happy with just the flowers but, there are more gifts? Hehe, I'm excited.
[Nesso] Yes, it's something that you'll like.
[Pearl] Wait Nesso-sama, what about Pearl and Richie?
[Richie] Yeah Nesso-sama, we were defending Heroine-chan.
[Nesso] Ahaha, of course. I've also brought treats for you two.
[Pearl] Yay!
[Richie] Wa!
[Nesso] But, you will protect her still right? Heroine is my only princess.
[Zara] Seriously, what are you saying after your return?
[Nesso] Zara, don't you feel the same?
[Zara] Yes yes. Lady, if you wish I'll take your flowers. I'll put them in a vase.
[Heroine] You think so?
The flowers given to me by Nesso were entrusted to Zara. He carried the bouquet out of the room.
Suddenly I remember.
[Heroine] (I forgot.)
[Heroine] Nesso, welcome home.
[Nesso] ... ....
I greeted him again and his eyes smiled.
[Nesso] I'm home, Heroine. Come here. As always, give me a hug?
[Heroine] Yes, of course.
Urged by a mischievous little voice, I held my arms out and hugged Nesso.
Even if you hug him really hard, Nesso's body doesn't budge an inch.
Big arm around the back of me, I was embraced.
[Heroine] (From Nesso is the fragrance of flowers.)
It must have been from the bouquet. It is a sweet smell.
Being sent to defend the country, I understand.
He fights for the country in case of such emergencies, I understand.
Still.
[Heroine] It's not too dangerous?
[Nesso]......  Ah, I understand. Don't worry too much.
[Zara] Seriously. Your worrying won't do much good.
The flower gotten from Nesso, Zara finished arranging in the vase goes back into the  room, the conversation starts. 
[Nesso] I am the best swordsman and an excellent knight of Weblin. So, it's okay.
[Heroine] ... ...Yes.
[Nesso] There, good girl.
To calm me down, he gave me a kiss and patted my hair with his huge hands.
[Zara] Hey, hey. Nesso, can you quit clinging to the lady?
[Nesso] Eh? Why?
[Zara] It is because you are wet. Here, a towel. Use it.
[Nesso] Ah, yes. My bad, Heroine. Wasn't it cold?
[Heroine] No, it was cool.
Nesso using the towel he recieved from Zara, begins to wipe his hair and clothes.
[Heroine] After all, isn't the rain outside cruel?
[Nesso] That's right... ... The ground was muddy, it was really troublesome making the horse run.
[Zara] ... ...That was unreasonable, you should have waited for the rain to stop to return.
[Nesso] But, what if I couldn't make it in time for Heroine's birthday?
[Zara] You could have been hurt seriously.
[Nesso] It's okay, I'm alright. I am a knight. I know how to handle a horse enough.
[Zara] But still, you should try to be more careful.
[Pearl] Yeah, worrying is no good.
[Richie] Yeah, Pearl will be plenty enough, right~?
[Pearl] Wait a minute. Richie~!
[Nesso] Ahahaha, you guys never change.
In that conversation, Zara sighs while Nesso laughs loudly.
[Heroine] (It doesn't change.)
After becoming a knight at the castle serving Weblin, Nesso's relationship with Zara hasn't changed.
I am called "lady" by Zara, while Nesso calls me by name.
The old times are envied, when Zara used to get mixed up and call me by name.
[Heroine] (After all, Zara has given up to the pardon. )
Now, the resignation is attached if as such, too.  There might be light-heartedness of the same gender......, Zara and Nesso have known each each other longer ..more than me... 
[Zara] Ah, yes.  The tower is making preparations for supper... ...
[Zara] Nesso, what are you going to do?
[Nesso] I want to eat. It's been a long time since I've eaten together with Heroine.
[Zara] Then I will contact the main building.
[Heroine] Ah, invite Father also. So everyone can eat together.
[Zara] Yes. Then let's propose this to Edgar-sama.
[Nesso] Haha, without a proposal, I would still fly at Heroine's invitation.
[Zara] Well, such a thing to do.
Usually, Zara, Pearl, Richie, and I are in the tower. And, there are a few employees.  Father lives in the main building of the same site. 
However, Father isn't interested in me at all.
Rather, the confinement is not excessive thinking.
[Heroine] (In the main building where a lot of people are going in and out, what illnesses are brought are not understood very much.)
It is unexpected, the overprotection.  Only for me, such a tower has been built.
[Heroine] (Well, they came here individually to visit. )
Nesso worries about me, who can't go out of the tower.
[Nesso] Then, let's invite Father. Today we'll eat supper with the whole family.
[Heroine] Eh, amazing! I'll look forward to it!
We exchanged smiles though, a look outside the window told us the rain was pouring even harder.
Like Nesso said, Father accepted our invitation to supper with pleasure.
[Edgar] Heroine will turn 16 tomorrow.
[Heroine] Yes, I'll be a lady.
It was unnatural, his attitude clearly. Graceful Father tried but, the results weren't really effective.
With a smile, he gazed at me as one would when watching a little child.
[Heroine] (Surely, these are the same eyes I have when I see Pearl and Richie.)
[Heroine] Now... ... Father, I'm turning 16 and an adult.
16, the age when an aristocrat's daughters become brides. This year I should be treated as an adult.
If that's the case, I wish.
[Edgar] Haha. You will always be my little princess.
[Nesso] Yes, that is so. Heroine is my cute princess.
[Pearl] No, she is Pearl's princess.
[Richie] Un, aren't you Richie's princess?
[Heroine] ... ...Haa, good grief.
[Zara] Oh, when did Pearl and Richie become human?
[Pearl] I wanted to sit at the table with everybody.
[Richie] Not being able to be with friends is unpleasant.
[Nesso] Even if you guys become humans, Heroine is my princess, right?
[Zara] Enough, Nesso. That is immature.
Our family and Father, they are still like this.
[Nesso] But, yeah. Heroine will turn 16.
[Zara] Yes, the lady will be 16.
[Edgar] Heroine, 16... ..., huh.
[Pearl] 16... ....
[Richie] Yeah, 16. We won't be permitted to kiss Heroine-chan anymore.
[Zara] Hey, Richie, when did you remember such a thing.
[Richie] Nothing?  Besides, when Richie was a dog I licked Heroine all the time.
[Pearl] Wa, wa!? Fuwa, I'm so happy when I think about it.
[Nesso] What!?
[Zara] Nesso, the other party are children.
[Nesso] But... .... Licking... ....
[Heroine] ... ... Err, everyone?
Everyone cherishes me. From their words you can tell.
Being valued, although it makes me happy... ....
The family's reactions, it makes me embarassed.
[Heroine] (......  Oh dear, though the feelings are understood.)
I was a Lobeira. Although falling ill and staying in bed is rare nowadays for me, when I was a child I was sick a lot.
 I slept when it rains, I slept when the wind strengthened,  I slept even if it was hot,  I slept even if it was cold. 
Each time Father, Nesso, and Zara worried anxiously while I was impatient with them.
[Heroine] (I was not an easy child to raise.)
Born as a Lobeira, the doctor said I wouldn't have long to live.
Father, Nesso, and Zara protected and raised me. Thus, I am here now.
[Heroine] (Even though I want to show my gratitude, I can't.)
They'll judge my feelings.
[Heroine] (However, I'll seem like a cruel girl, right... ....)
These three people who value me. I understand.
I understand... ...Still, the world outside the tower, I yearn for it.
I want to go outside the tower. The garden where the sun shines. I want to walk and feel the blowing wind. I want to feel the ground with the back of my feet.
Everyday, such desires are piled up.
Therefore, on my 16th birthday to go outside I had to bothered my Father.
Until now, I was protected in this tower. I didn't give up even when I was told it was useless. I kept pleading persistently.
[Heroine] (Earlier Zara had said... ...Tenacity wins.)
The result is being able to celebrate my birthday in the garden.
[Heroine] Hey, Father, I, tomorrow is my birthday. Father, it's useless if I don't live with you.
[Edgar] Living with me... ...? That's a cute thing to say, Heroine. I'll go back to my room in the tower right away.
[Heroine] That's not it! The opposite. Opposite. I want to move to the main building.
Father, I don't mean that I'm inviting you to the tower. I want to go outside the tower.
[Nesso] Ahahahahaha. Heroine, it seems to me Father is playing dumb on purpose.
[Heroine] Father... ...!
[Edgar] Hahahaha!
When I pout, Father laughs but, afterwards he has a serious thoughtful face.
[Edgar] However. I'm glad for your feelings, Heroine. I'm frightened for you. It's terrifying.
[Edgar] Up to now, you have lived in this tower. You breathe pure clean air.
[Edgar] Once you go out into the world... ..., won't you get awfully sick?
[Nesso] Zodiba is disappearing. Ten years ago, the world was a cruel place.
[Zara] I would be angry if anything happened to the lady.
[Heroine] Such a thing... ....
[Heroine] Don't say that.
I, to what extent can I trust this body? There is a part that cannot be understood.
Recently, I seldom get ill and stay in bed... ...,what factor I am I not understanding?
Was it because I grew? Is life in the tower good for the body? Or is it another factor?
[Heroine] (... ... It is difficult.)
To go out, the wanting to touch the world outside. I fear the world on the outside.
[Edgar] I refuse, Heroine. I've lost both of my wives to illness. Until now you... ..., I can't lose you too.
[Heroine] Father... ....
[Pearl] ... ...Heroine-chan, don't make that kind of face.
[Richie] It's safe, you have Richie and Pearl for protection.
[Edgar] ... ...Yes, however ... ....
Nesso's mother, my mother. Both died immediately, after giving birth to us.
[Heroine] (So, isn't that right? I, my features are similiar to my mother, when a daughter like me is lost, my father will not recover.)
For that reason, Father tries to defend me with what could be called overprotection.
That overprotection has given me a sort of nickname, [A beautiful cage for a princess] I have heard from surrounding aristocrats.
I was confined in this high tower, a caged princess.
[Heroine] (That name whether lovely or not, is impossible to say... ...)
Hearing that nickname for the first few times, and not being able live up to it, puts me at a loss.
[Heroine] (It's just the opposite, if you see. Curiousity might rise and create rumors.)
There's only a few that are permitted to set foot in the tower of Shall Messean, family and a small number of employees.
[Heroine] ... ...Ah.
[Nesso] Oh? How are you doing? You're face shows that you've recalled something.
[Heroine] Er, now that I think about it... .... Thinking about the people who could come to the tower, reminded me of Mejojo and Auger.
[Heroine] At tomorrow's dinner party, Mejojo and Auger will also come.
[Nesso] Ah... .... His Highness Mejojo and his Highness Auger.
[Edgar] ... ...Yes.
[Heroine] (... ...Oh?)
Nesso's and Father's expressions suddenly became cloudy.
Are there any reasons? I asked for help with a glance, Zara sighed and looked troubled.
[Zara] Mejojo-sama, has declined your invitation.
[Heroine] ... ...Eh.
[Nesso] He's rejected me several times, he has also rejected Father formally. But, thanks... ...
[Nesso] Stubborn.
[Edgar] Nesso, stop it.
[Edgar] His Highness Mejojo, likes you and it shows.
[Heroine] Ehhh~?
Mejojo and Auger. These two's full names are very long.
With Mejojo Von Garibaldi and Auger Von Garibaldi.
The Garibaldi have ruled this country for six generations. His Majesty's heir is one of the twin princes.
They are curious about me, how many years ago. On a certain day, Father was called on by the sixth Garibaldi generation's Majesty.
[Sixth Garibaldi King] Edgar. Your daugher, she will grow up without the outside world in her tower.
[Sixth Garibaldi King] I know you are relunctant because she is a Lobeira. But, it is pitiful.
[Sixth Garibaldi King] Mejojo and Auger are interested in your daughter. How about they become her companions?
If, there is going to be wind.
"How about they become her companions?" His majesty, the king said. Even though it sounded like a question, it was an order.
The tower clamored. I was prepared, my hair was done and my appearance was polished.
And since then, every few months, Mejojo and Auger came to play with me.
I call them by name because they told me so.
[Heroine] (I like it, I do.)
Except for this time, which he refused. The prince visits personally on many occasions. 
If it was true, it would be a happy story. For an aristocrat, kin to royalty.
If it was normal, wouldn't be a good thing for me, an aristocrat's daughter to be seen by royalty.
But Father and Nesso have scowls. The reason must be that I am still a Lobeira.
Even if it goes up to the royal palace, I to whom the body is weak cannot become familiar with the life of the royal palace,worries whether if the body will ruin.
[Heroine] (I......,　Though I am determined as aristocrat's daughter)
I've lived up to now, the aristocrat's daughter has recieved many blessings to live.
Therefore, as the daughter of an aristocrat, I've been thinking of accepting a political marriage as compensation.
[Heroine] Mejojo, I don't particularly hate you, but... .... There is no desire.
It is a connection with your favorite person, marriages made from love at the beginning are rare.
[Heroine] So much enthusiasm?
[Edgar] Ah... ...Though I have refused several times, the question of marriage is brought up.
[Nesso] His Majesty's resignation is too bad.
[Edgar] Nesso. Don't say such things.
[Nesso] It's okay, Father.  I do not intend to speak of this outside. This is private family matters. May I speak my true opinions?
[Edgar]... ...Nesso.
[Nesso] Their recent arrogance, Father. Will you hear it? Another race is completely looked down upon.
[Nesso] Leaving Heroine with people like them... ....
[Edgar] Nesso, you are a knight. As a knight of this country, consequently, it is likely you have to swear fealty to the royal family.
[Edgar] Especially you, the leader of the division Guraifrita. You er will have to... ....
[Nesso] I will play the role of the knight. Enough talk about Heroine marrying.
[Nesso]  To begin with, Heroine will be my wife. Right, Heroine?
[Heroine] Eh!?
[Zara] Seriously, Nesso. Such things to declare... ....
[Nesso] Hahahaha.
[Heroine] (Joke... ..., right?)
[Edgar] ... ...Haa.
[Heroine] (Though Nesso needs to be reproved... ....Father is tired.)
There are rumors that next term's king, the heir prince wants a girl. It's probably not true.
[Heroine] (I'm nothing. Do I need to be desperately defended by Father and Nesso so much?)
[Heroinne] Even if I am the only daughter of the Galland family. The family still needs an obedient daughter in law.
[Nesso] No good! You don't know anything.
[Heroine] (... ...Uh)
Nesso dismissed the idea with a prompt answer. Father looked only at Nesso and agreed, he nodded with a bitter face.
[Heroine] Somehow, I don't want to marry either.
[Heroine] Enough, because both are overprotective.
Two people want to be important to me.
[Nesso] Because you are still a child. Becoming a bride, something like that, can you do it? When the time comes, I will be ready.
[Heroine] (... ...Me?)
Then, Nesso was interrupted. Two unexpected people.
[Pearl] No~! She'll marry me!
[Richie] Pearl and her marrying is impossible, impossible.
[Pearl] What? When I am no good? Richie is also no good.
Having kept quiet at the meal until now, they are crazy.
These two people made the plates empty. They bickered cheerfully.
[Heroine] (Ah now, my precious pets.)
[Heroine] Fu. Now, Pearl and Richie. Am I a bride?
[Richie] If you marry Richie, then we can be together for a long time. If so, then I want to make Heroine a bride.
[Pearl] Even I think so. Richie is tricky.
[Heroine] Ahahahaha.
[Heroine] (The two people, love and marriage. They don't understand well.
For these two young people, The marriage seems to be the only method to be with their favorite person for a long time. 
[Heroine] (Oh dear, are you sure you're not making a mistake?)
What is marriage? Usually, I must. But, in my position, I'm not allowed.
[Zara] ... ...Ah.
[Zara] Pearl, Richie. Will you always make me tell you not speak to the lady in such a way?
[Zara] Calling the lady with the honorific chan in front of the master.
[Richie] But, Heroine-chan said so!
[Pearl] Uh huh! Heroine-chan wanted us  to!
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
[Heroine] (... ...Ge!)
Zara threw a glance at me.
[Zara] ... ...Lady?
[Heroine] Because... .... It's cute.
I mumbled my excuse.
From the other party's standpoint, Pearl and Richie are my employees.
Zara is in a position where he should understand but, he's still naggy... ....
[Heroine] (Pearl and Richie are still children.......　 This, I thought it was good for now. )
[Heroine] Only in this tower, you say?
[Pearl] Yeah! Outside the tower, Heroine is called Miss.
[Richie] When Richie is an ill-natured child, Heroine-chan is troubled. That's why I'll properly call Heroine, Miss. I'm different from Pearl.
[Pearl] Hey, Richie~!
[Richie] He he~ ♪
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
[Nesso] Well, isn't it good then? If it's only in the tower?
[Nesso] Something different, if these guys go out, won't it be good? What does Father think?
[Edgar] These young children looking after Heroine, to leave her in their care. You should think.
[Zara] ... ...Good grief. Since, Master Nesso is also sweet. Don't you think disciplining a dog at the start is essential?
[Nesso] Haha, is that so?
[Zara] It is so.
Zara seemed a little worried. His eyebrows were arched.
[Heroine] (Zara is also the same as ever.)
Zara calls Nesso "Master" because he was originally Nesso's employee but, I call him by name.
So, it is sweet when I'm understood by two people. The words from our mouth don't show our mutual feelings. Such trivial matters but, the truth is this family comforts each other.
However, Zara doesn't respect the matters of Nesso and other things, there is mainly no considering it at all. 
The relationship between the two people if you could see in reality, shaped submission.
[Nesso] Well, still. Even you too, Heroine.
[Pearl] Ehhh! Why!?
[Richie] Why!?
[Nesso] The man that becomes the husband of Heroine... ..., it is so. He has to be at least strong as I if not stronger.
[Zara] Good grief, what a thing to say. Is there a man who could defeat you with a sword?
[Nesso] It might be possible.
[Heroine] ... ... I, I have thought that it is impossible to marry.
[Nesso] Hahaha. If there is no one, I'll continue to protect you.
[Heroine] Eh?
[Heroine] (The responsibility a while ago was this?)
A glimpse at Nesso shows that his face is oddly calm.
[Heroine] (Now, only half of our blood is connected.)
Among aristocrats, between brothers and sisters, following younger brother etc, the marriage among close relatives is not unusual either, but.
[Heroine] Once in a while, Nesso is dangerous... ... My heart is skipping because of Big Brother. How foolish.
[Zara] ... ...Haa.
[Heroine] Ya!?
In the pause of the conversation, a strong wind blew.  The window frame rings annoyingly with a creak. 
Because it is at a high position, the wind strength : though it's the usual......, The storm might be still near. 
[Zara] It looks like the wind has strengthened... ...There might be a storm. Could tomorrow's dinner party be postponed?
[Edgar] ... ... Yes. In this weather, it might be difficult.
[Heroine] Oh well... ....
For the first time, a dinner part outside the tower.
It would be a lie if I said I didn't expect it, it looked like the weather was going to bad before, selfishness cannot be said.
[Heroine] Postponement regrettably ... ....  Not discontinuance but, postponement?  If so, I'll obediently enjoy.
[Edgar] Sorry, Heroine. When the weather settles down... ....
[Nesso] ... ...Nn?
[Edgar] Nesso?
[Nesso] Shh... ...!
[Heroine] (What is it?)
Interrupting Father's words, Nesso puts up a finger to his lips and issues instructions.
Seeing his signal, we obediently stopped talking.
[Nesso] As expected. Horses' footsteps. It's muffled by the sound of the wind and rain.
[Edgar] When a visitor visits, how did I not hear anything... ...? What on earth?
[Nesso] Understood.
Nesso quickly stands up from the table, he comes near to a window and confirms the action outside.
[Nesso] ... ...Keh!
[Heroine] (What, how come nothing good has happened?)
The face of Nesso is serious.  We also stand from ours seats, one after another, and come to the window.
[Heroine] What... ...?
The voice, it trembles instinctively.
As usual, inside the rain pours down hard.  Looking down from the window ahead, In the garden, the knight who had extended over the horse circled this tower over and over again.
Swinging, the light of the lantern shakes. 
[Edgar] Can it be... ....His Highness Mejojo and his Highness Auger's bodyguard... ...?
[Nesso] That. What in the world... ...
[Zara] Too much, you can't see through the storm.
[Nesso] ... ...Yeah.
[Nesso] Heroine, go retire. Father also, please retire to your room. I will see to this situation.
[Edgar] Yes, I'll leave it to you.
As soon as he said that, Nesso went out of the room. 
[Maid 1] Yaaaaaah! Ah, you are ... ...!?
[Maid 2] Hurry, inform Edgar-sama of this... ...!!
[Heroine] ... ...!!
The commotion's happening in the downstairs, I have heard it here. It has gotten through the  knights who were surrounding the tower, it has invaded.  The armor is jingles, it runs in the stairs and the footstep that goes up is heard. 
[Heroine] Na, what... ...? What... ...?
[Nesso] You retire, Heroine.
[Heroine] Uh, yes... ...
Nesso places his hand on his sword. I get away from the room's entrance.
Before long, the footsteps coming up the stairs are running, it stops in front of the room where we are... .... 
[Bodyguard 1] ... ... ... ....
[Bodyguard 2] ... ... ... ....
The room was silent as if snow was crumbling, there were two knights of the Cat race.
Having promptly reacted to it, it is Pearl and Richie.  The two people, they assume the role of the watchdog at emergencies. 
The two transform from human to beast, they bark while they spring towards the two knights who intruded.
[Zara] Pearl! Richie!
The two people were called,  to spur them on, possibly.
[Bodyguard 1] Chi... ...!!
[Bodyguard 2] Watchdogs... ...!
If the other party is a usual thief or something, even if it is only Richie, it is likely for her to have been able to catch them without Pearl. 
They appear to be excellent knights.
An arm and a foot, Pearl and Richie are knocked down without mercy.
[Pearl] Ach!
[Richie] Uyah... ...!
The small bodies of the two had been easily thrown down to the ground.
[Heroine] Pearl! Richie!
[Nesso] How cruel... ...!
[Bodyguard 1] Self defense.
[Bodyguard 2] If you don't want to see anybody get hurt, don't move.
[Heroine] Terrible... ...!
The knights gave us warning, Zara stopped Pearl and Richie.
Do not against them. If you do go against them, I don't know what will happen.
The knights confirmed that there was no danger and motioned outside the entrance.
As if waiting for the signal, Prince Auger came in with a smile.
[Heroine] ... ...Tsu!
Under this abnormal circumstance, we fear Auger's smiling face which does not change.
Instinctively Nesso's finger tips go to his sheath.
[Auger] Hey, Heroine. Long time no see.
[Heroine] Auger... ...?
[Auger] I'm sorry to interrupt such a happy supper, I didn't want to be rough. I just came here to catch a witch.
[Heroine] Witch... ...?
A bad feeling.
In this room, the only woman is me. And, above all, Auger's glance is directed right towards me.
[Nesso] Prince... ...!! Even if it is the prince, you aren't allowed to visit.
[Nesso] Please, remove your knights from this room! This is my younger sister's room!
[Nesso] Stepping into a lady's room, that is not the behavior of a knight!
[Auger] Well, I'm not a knight I'm a prince and I'm also a court musician, so isn't okay?
[Auger] I think so too but, let's set that aside. It can't be helped, Nesso-kun.
[Nesso] It can't be helped , huh? Please give me a good explanation!
[Auger] Well, you're hot-blooded. Once your head cools?
[Nesso] ... ...Keh.
[Zara] Nesso, it is useless.
[Auger] Hey, Rabbit-kun keep quiet. Lately Zodiba has been spreading in this area.
[Edgar] I also have recieved a report as the lord of this land... ....But, what does that have to do with anything... ...!
[Auger] Yes. It does. Zodiba has been spreading again, the work of the witch at the top of the tower.
[Heroine] (On top of the tower, witch?)
[Heroine] You mean... ..., my work?
[Zara] What are you saying!?... ... These kinds of things, lies!
[Auger] I said shut up, right? Now, who is talking?
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
[Auger] People from this region have been coming directly to the castle. Don't we have to do something, right?
[Auger] It must be your work. That is why. Heroine Galland.
[Auger] --... I've come to arrest you.
[Nesso/Auger] Stop messing around!
[Auger] Kukuku, hahaha, ah too funny. Really,  you're so predictable. Simple minded, don't you think~?
[Nesso] ... ... Ugh, bast... ....
[Auger] Ba? St? Ard?
[Zara] ... ...Nesso, it is useless.
[Nesso] ... ...Mch ... ....
Outside, there is a storm.
Roar of the wind, rain crashing against the window.
It was a disturbing sound but, Auger was smiling and laughing happily.
 

--Several days ago.
[Auger] Yaaah. Boring~... ... Spare time with nothing to do, I could die of boredom.
Imuttered while yawning. I came out of his room to do something interesting... ....
The castle is peaceful today.
[Nesso] Ah~... ..., peace is boring.
The caste is a good place for gloomy plans for domination. It's too peaceful lately, it's boring.
I walked around aimlessly and stopped.
[Auger] I wonder what's up with Big Brother. Big Brother might have something to do. Yes yes.
I switch my destination to my brother's room. I walked briskly down the hall.
Although we have family quarrels, there is no discord between us.
The reason might be that I spend time daily in my brother's room.
Firstly, I've already declared that I have no interest in the throne.
In that sense, I love my brother because he doesn't bore me.
[Auger] (Let's see what brother is doing and play.)
[Auger] Funfufu~n.
Humming, I go towards my brother's room.
[Auger] Yaho brother, got work?
I don't knock. My brother doesn't care, I don't care.
When you don't knock, you could catch someone doing something bad.
For us brothers, we have a mutual understanding.
I didn't knock today either, because my elder brother, the next king left the door wide open.
[Mejojo] ... ... ... ....
My elder brother, he seemed troubled.
[Auger] What? Big brother, could it be that you're in a bad mood?
[Mejojo] ... ...Oh, Auger.
Brother lifts his gaze from his documents to me, he mutters bitterly.
[Auger] (... ...Unusual.)
Normally Big Brother would mercilessly erase whatever was bothering him.
Whenever I enter the room, it's not unusual for the bad mood to go away.
And yet, Brother is looking thoughtful.
[Auger] (Is it something that's hard to solve~? But, if it's the next king then it's not impossible.)
[Mejojo] Edgar Galland has answered.
Frustrated, Brother hits the desk.
[Auger] Ah, were you rejected again? I'm curious Brother. How many times has it been?
[Auger] Isn't it about time you give up? Give up on marriage, play with me.
[Mejojo] Shut up.
[Auger] I don't get what you see in that girl, I don't understand~.
[Mejojo] I told you to shut up.
[Auger] Ye~es.
Before making Brother seriously angry, I stop talking.
When you make them seriously angry, it's impossible to get them to play for awhile.
Therefore, as tempting as it was I resisted so I didn't anger my brother seriously.
Until it got too serious, I could anger him.
[Auger] (At any rate, Brother doesn't really seem to learn.)
The cause of Brother's bad mood would be the Galland Family.
My brother for reasons that can't be understood likes the daughter of the Galland Family. Her name, Heroine.
Heroine Galland.
The reason Big Brother is interested in her is probably because she is a Lobeira and not her beauty.
[Auger] (I don't think it's her beauty~)
Accompanied by Big Brother, I went to play at her tower.
[Auger] (Not pretty but, not ugly either.)
Big Brother is not obsessing over her beauty.
 

[Auger] (Well, on the inside, I feel? I'm more important to Brother.)
Ten years ago, Brother had a fiance. The woman's name, Elvira Galland.
As the name suggests, the woman is related to Heroine Galland.
Though the woman was Brother's fiance, she fell in love with another man.
Brother is still chasing after the woman's remnants.
[Auger] (If you say it like that, it's like a tragic love story.)
As a matter of fact, Brother did not love that woman.
Big Brother only thought of her as an object, something he owned. He didn't like that she was taken away by some knight.
The woman didn't choose him. His pride was wounded.
[Auger] (... ...It's like the feeling of not being able to have a toy, I understand~... ...)
Though I understand his feelings, Brother is obsessed with such uninteresting stuff.
I'm sure if it was me, once I obtained it, I would come to my senses.
[Auger] If Brother wants it, why not take it forcibly? I'll help?
[Auger] I could kill and stuff her for you.
[Mejojo] You can't, the Galland Family is Father's favorite.
[Auger] Ah~... ..., certainly.
The Galland Family helped found Weblin. The friendship between the Gallands and the royal family is still deep.
[Auger] (Well, that's the reason for the proposal.)
The petty family rejected Brother's proposal.
[Mejojo] Edgar and Nesso, they're important to Father. They're the ones that gave him his position. That... ...damn.
[Auger] That Galland Family is annoying~. They need to be more foolish.
It would be better if your subordinates were stupid.
If your subordinates could think on their own, that would be troublesome and difficult.
Father's position was given by the Galland Family.
[Auger] (Ah, well... ...)
[Auger] Hey, Brother, I've got a good idea.
[Mejojo] ... ...You?
[Auger] Wa, don't be like that, I'm hurt. I just wanted to help Brother.
[Mejojo] Speak if it's good.
[Auger] That was curt, Big Brother. I'm not stupid like you think.
 

[Mejojo] You're hurt by something like that? Do you have something good or not?
[Auger] ... ...Um.
[Mejojo] Hurry and tell me.
[Auger] (How hurtful, Brother.)
[Auger] Brother is heartless.
However, his heartlessness is irresistable.
[Auger] Enough, I guess I have no choice. You're impatient Brother. But, I'll tell you because I like Brother.
[Auger] Hey, about the rumors on the streets about the witch.
[Mejojo] Witch?
[Auger] Yes.
I with a smile, told the strategy involving Heroine to Brother.
 

[Heroine] (Lie, really.)
A minute ago, I should have been having dinner with my family.
Though outside was a disturbing storm, but in the room it was warm and safe. Our family and everyone were laughing and smiling.
I was thinking about the party, worried that it might be postponed due to the storm.
However even if it were postponed, we were enjoying a silly family conversation.
That's what was happening.
[Heroine] (... ...Arrested, I have been.)
As proof, my hands are bound by chains. If my hands were tied behind my back, it might have been better.
[Nesso] Stop it... ...!! Putting chains on Heroine, what do you think you're doing!? Don't touch her! Don't touch Heroine... ...!!
[Edgar] This is a misunderstanding. Heroine did not commit the crime.
[Edgar] This child has never been out of this tower, could you pardon her by not chaining her up?
[Edgar] This child against a strong knight, what resistance could be done?
[Edgar] Please don't be cruel to the child.
[Heroine] ... ...Haa.
Father and Nesso begged not to chain me up many times.
But, Auger was against it, and was merciless.
[Auger] Sorry~? But, it has been determined. It's the first time we've seen a real witch, we're scared.
[Heroine] (Not sorry, he was smiling.)
Eventually, because Nesso would probably draw his sword, I obediently stretched my hands out to be chained.
[Heroine] (It's heavier than I thought.)
The chains are just for procedures. I'm innocent so it'll be okay.
But having your hands chained, is more miserable than you imagine.
[Heroine] (... ...I feel more and more melancholy.)
Is it because I'm deprived of freedom?
Or because the chains as proof of a crime, I feel like a criminal.
I was supposed to be taken from the tower, movedinto a horse-drawn carriage and put forwards the king in the Weblin palace.
[Heroine] (It was my dream to get out of the tower, I was looking forward to it... ... But, to go out like this. No way.)
The weight of the chains on my wrists are real but, I can't believe this reality.
The knight walked me off and made me stand.
Before the 6th Generation Garibaldi King for a so-called audience.
You can see with a glance, people hurrying about.
Of course Nesso and Father have also come. Pearl and Richie are back at the tower.
[Heroine] (... ...Excellent.)
The fact that there were familiar faces, family was reassuring.
[Soldier 1] Sixth Generation Garibaldi King has arrived.
[Heroine] ... ...!
Hearing the soldier's voice, my body tensed.
Until now, for me who has not been out of the tower, this is my first time seeing the Sixth Gen. Garibaldi King.
With that thought, and the chains around my wrists, I feel extra miserable.
[Sixth Gen. Garibaldi King] ... ... The story has been heard. My dear friend, Edgar Galland's only daughter Heroine has been accused of being a witch.
[Sixth Gen. Garibaldi King] Is this true... ...?
[Edgar] Ah, Sixth Gen. Garibaldi King, His Majesty... ...! If you call me a dear friend, please give us love... ...!
[Edgar] This pitiful only daughter of mine, please save her His Majesty!
[Nesso] His Majesty, Heroine a witch, that is a downright lie... ...!
[Mejojo] Fuu.  Earl Edgar and Nesso, know your place.
[Nesso] His Highness, Mejojo.
 

[Mejojo] You are unsightly. You are the leader of Guraifuritta knights of Weblin.
[Nesso] ... ...Gu, But, His Highness Mejojo... ....
[Mejojo] No buts. You should be giving us thanks for letting you defend her.
[Mejojo] Think about the Majesty's kindness to our Weblin, Earl Edgar.
[Auger] Yes, that's right.
[Mejojo] You're in the presence of the king. You should bow your head and kneel down!
[Edgar] ... ... ... ...!
[Nesso] ... ... ... ...!
[Heroine] (Mejojo... ...?)
Mejojo had only cold words for Father and Nesso who were defending my innocence.
Mejojo seems to celebrate the ceremony.
[Auger] Yes, yes. You're being unsightly in front of Poppa.
Although Auger takes advantage of the silence and interrupts, Mejojo doesn't seem to mind.
[Mejojo] Here are several villagers from the land Earl Edgar governs, they have complaints.
[Heroine] (They went to the castle... ..., and appealed that I was a witch... ...?)
After Mejojo's announcement, some villagers are standing.
Brought to the castle, the villagers are fearful and confused, they gaze at me with hate.
No, not only hatred, they fear me.
In their eyes, there was fear.
[Heroine] (... ...Really, they really think I'm a witch.)
Shock.
This is no joke, no misunderstanding either. They truly believe that I am a witch.
[Mejojo] Villagers, let's hear the witch's crimes.
[Villager Man 1] I, I saw! She turned into a black crow! I saw it in the forest of ShallMessen.
[Villager Man 1] Immediately, after I went out the house someone got sick. That crow was a witch. It cursed our grandfather. He died.
[Heroine] Dead... ...!
[Heroine] (What... ...!)
[Villager Woman 1] That's not it! I am a sheperd in the village. My sheep were killed by wolves.
[Villager Woman 1] The witch ordered the wolves. I heard the woman was also seen with the wolves.
[Villager Man 2] I heard the rumor too. The witch has to uncover graves to make potions.
[Villager Man 2] Many villagers passed away due to Zodiba. Then, the witch robs the graves... ...Killing people for their corpses is just too cruel.
[Heroine] Everyone is so serious! It's funny that there's no evidence.
[Heroine] (It's fishy. Why has no one notice... ...?!)
Unpleasant things that happen in daily life but, they claim the witch did it.
[Mejojo] Well, Heroine. The things these people said... ... Are there any excuses?
[Heroine] ... ...!
Even I can see the inconsistency in what they've said, there's no reason that Mejojo is not aware.
Yet, ordering me to explain, it's like harassment.
[Heroine] I am not a witch, I am human. I cannot turn into a crow.
[Heroine] Many know that until now, I have never been out of the tower.
[Heroine] There is no reason for me to go to the village.
[Heroine] Wolves cannot be controlled and don't make potions.
[Heroine] To begin with... ... If you look at me, why would you think I'm a witch!?
[Mejojo] ... ...Hmm. That's certainly true.
Mejojo traces his finger along his jaw. The act looks unnatural.
[Heroine] (I am not a witch, there is no proof.)
I have not gone out of the tower since childhood. No one from the village could have seen me.
[Mejojo] How is it? The argument against the villagers.
[Mejojo] How did you determine Heroine was a witch?
[Villager Man 1] ... ... ... ....
[Villager Woman 1] ... ... ... ....
[Villager Man 2] ... ... ... ...
The villagers look at each other and hesitate.
[Heroine] (As expected, there is no reason.)
[Mejojo] What is it? Don't hold back. You're in the presence of the Majesty.
[Mejojo] Villagers, even if you lose against Earl Edgar's daughter's argument, there will be no punishment, so be at ease.
[Villager Man 1] So then... ....
[Heroine] (Eh... ...?)
[Villager Man 1] Well... ..., I would say. Heroine... ..., she is... ...Lobeira but, why is she alive?
[Heroine]... ...Eh?
[Villager Woman 1] The Lobeira kind must be sickly and have short life spans. It's not unusual for them to die before adulthood. Heroine is still alive!
[Villager Man 2] Even with Zodiba breaking out, Heroine of Lobeira kind won't die!?
[Villager Man 1] If she weren't a witch, since she is Lobeira she would not be able to survive.
[Villager Woman 1] Heroine sacrifices people with the help of the wolves to prolong her life!
[Villager Man 2] She's sucking our life span! And, I know! The Earl buys lots of suspicious medicines.
[Villager Man 1] A man of the Rabbit kind makes the medicine!
[Zara] ... ... ... ....
[Villager Man 2] It must be the materials for making the witch's medicine!!
[Villager Man 1] To begin with, Heroine is confined in the tower, so it's hard to recognize the witch.
[Heroine] Such thing... ....
The surroundings become noisy again but, I can't do anything but, be at a loss for words.
[Heroine] (Because I am of Lobeira kind, because I am alive, I am a witch... ...?)
[Zara] The Earl buys medicine to cure lady's illnesses! The lady living in the tower is to defend against sickness and there is no other reason!
[Nesso] It is as Zara says. And... ...Heroine being alive, it's proof of being a witch, how dare you say that... ...!
[Villager Man 1] ... ...!
[Villager Woman 1] ... ...Uh.
[Villager Man 1] But... ....
The villagers hesitate at Zara and Nesso's force but, become noisy again.

They are shouting lies... ... To begin with, we are not lying.
[Heroine] I... ...!!
[Auger] Yes, yes don't get too hot headed. The beautiful caged princess?
[Mejojo]... ...Well, Father. The villagers appeal. What do you think?
[Sixth Gen. Garabaldi King] ... ... Mmm.
[Edgar] His Majesty... ...! Heroine is a Lobeira, the reason why she is still alive is because she is carefully nurtured!
[Edgar] It is not because she is a witch.
[Villager Man 1] Lie!! Give us evidence she's not a witch!
[Villager Woman 1] Yes!! Give us proof she's not a witch!!
[Villager Man 2] There is no evidence!! You cannot trust them!!
[Heroine] Evidence... ...!
[Heroine] (It is unreasonable... ...!)
Their evidence that I am a witch is that even though I am a Lobeira, I'm alive.
The only way to prove them wrong would be to catch an illness and die.
That's how I would not be a witch.
[Heroine] ... ...!
[6th Gen. King] ... ... Nmn.
6th Gen. King Garabaldi pressed for judgement.
[Auger] Well~ This is difficult. Brother, do you have a good idea?
[Mejojo] ... ...Yes. His Majesty, may I say something?
[6th Gen. King] What is it? Speak.

[Mejojo] As the villagers appeal, the misfortune happened because there is a witch.
[Mejojo] In that case, how about we invite Heroine to the castle? If there are disasters at the castle,... ...Heroine is indeed a witch.
[Nesso] Na... ...!!
[Zara] No... ...!!
[Heroine] I... ..., to the castle... ...?
[Edgar] Your majesty, until now, Heroine has been a weak child... ...!
[Edgar] If she's suddenly moved to the castle, her body won't be able to adapt!
[Mejojo] Earl Edgar even though your feelings for your important daughter are understood well... ..., it's not only your family's problem.
[Mejojo] Your daughter has been suspected to be the witch who brings chaos to Weblin. So, shouldn't I get rid of the doubt?
[Edgar] That is... ...!
[Mejojo] Father, you and Earl Edgar's valuable feelings of friendship are understood too.
[Mejojo] Though, I would like to pass judgement with the whole country in mind now.
[Mejojo] Our sixth generation of family is being critisized by the villagers.
[Mejojo] Now, there is damage from the wolves. I would like for you to think of the people affected by Zodiba, please.
[6th Gen. King] ... ... ... ....
His Majesty, at Mejojo's words worries. Finally, the conclusion.
[6th Gen. King] Then, ... ... Heroine Galland.
[Heroine] Yes... ...!
[6th Gen. King] For a while, you may stay at the castle.  However, naughtiness is not allowed.
[6th Gen. King] It's only to show that you are not a witch. There is not especially anything needed.
[Heroine] ... ...!!
[Heroine] (I... ..., I live in the castle... ...?)
Considering what happened, my head feels dizzy.
From the proposal from Mejojo, I imagined my life at the castle.
Well I never, as a witch I am a criminal. My life at the castle will be watched.
[Mejojo] Splendid decision, Father. Then... ..., the Weblin Kingdom, Heroine Galland is considered to be a witch, we will observe her.
[Nesso] Stupid!! Don't mess around!!
[Nesso] Is such a thing permitted?! Your Majesty, please reconsider! There is no evidence!
[Mejojo] Arrest that man! What you did in His Majesty's prescence will not be tolerated!
[Heroine] Nesso... ...!!
[Nesso] Heroine... ...!!
[Zara] Lady ... ...!!
Isn't the punishment convincing? Nesso was forcibly removed, guards of the Cat kind at his side.
[Mejojo] Heroine, come here.
[Heroine] Ah... ... But, Nesso... ...!
[Mejojo] Don't get so worked up. Think of Nesso and follow the rules.
[Auger] Yes, yes. Making too much noise is bad. Can't you get imprisoned for intending to rebel~?
[Heroine] (Something like that, no good... ...!)
[Heroine] Nesso, because of me... ...!!
I without thinking of safety shouted to Nesso.
[Nesso] Heroine... ...!!
[Zara] Lady... ...!!
[Edgar] Ah, Heroine... ....
[Mejojo] Let's go, Heroine.
My hands bound, Mejojo led me away.
In the back, the voice of my family still echoes.
[Heroine] (Nesso...! Zara... !Father...!!)
What has happened, I don't understand. Not knowing what is to come in future, I'm petrified.
[Heroine] (Why... ..., why did it turn out this way?)
It is my birthday tommorow. The excitement leading up to tommorow, the meaning has changed.
I am praying bound by handcuffs, the links dragging along.

I am made a criminal, with the chains put around my chains.
We have not arrived at the destination yet though it was determined that I would be guided to the place where people are under the watch, the jails surely in the castle. 
The passage I was going through with Auger and Mejojo seemed to go on forever as we continued to walk.
[Heroine] (Has the storm already passed?)
It was useless to have prayed for the storm to pass earlier now.
Even if tomorrow comes, my birthday party is not done. All the preparations that Zara worked hard on have ended uselessly, too. 
[Heroine] (Why... ..., why did this turn out this way... ...?)
[Heroine] ... ...
A sob seemed to spill, and the smell of a buoyantly sweet flower under my nose gave me comfort.
[Heroine] (... ...Is it a garden?)
It was not the time to cry, if you do not understand my situation.
[Heroine] ... ... ... ....
I deeply inhale. The fragrance of the flowers still linger in the air.
[Heroine] (I am accused of being a witch. Am I going to be confined... ..., somewhere in the castle?
That.
[Heroine] (How could it be, that Mejojo and Auger must have made a mistake somewhere down the road... ...)
The people that are guiding me have no hesitation.
[Heroine] (Where on Earth are you heading?)
I imagined a prison under the soil, a dungeon from the word confinement.
Or another tower, again?
[Mejojo] What are staring at?
[Heroine] No, it's nothing. I was just thinking about wherever you were taking me.
[Mejojo] I understand.
[Mejojo] Come obediently.
[Heroine] ... ... Yes.
Prompted by Mejojo pulling my chains, I quicken my pace to catch up with him.
[Mejojo] We're here.
[Heroine] Eh... ...?
I was guided through the long passageway to this garden.
There was no signs of other people of the Cat race, it must be only a place where the Majesty and the princes may enter.
The garden was impressive, a wonderful view.
Glittering is the light by which people in the king capital live before one's eyes is blinking on the ground like the stars. 
I forget my current situation and take in my surrounding scenery.
[Mejojo] How is it, isn't it beautiful?
[Heroine] ... ...Yes but, why... ... me here? I am someone suspected of being a witch and supposed to be confined... ....
[Mejojo]This is the place where you will live starting today.
[Heroine] Eh?
[Mejojo] Your quarters have already been prepared.
There was a small, lovely cottage that we stopped at as Mejojo mentioned it.
A lovely house, where a fairy could live in.
[Heroine] Me, in there... ...? A suspected witch to be under surveillance... ...?
[Mejojo] Yes, you will stay here. My employees, the CCK or Chu Chu Knights stay here in the garden to keep you under watch.
[Heroine] The Chu Chu Knights?
[Mejojo] They are knights of the Rats. They are brilliantly useful but, they are also very small.
[Mejojo] While you are here, come to them if you need anything.
[Mejojo] --Hey.
[???] My name is Reonidasu, I serve as the leader of CCK. Nice to meet you.
[Reonidasu] There are many of us so I hope you remember my face.
Reonidasu takes a step forward, he's not a complete person.
His knightly appearance is created by a helmet placed modestly on his child-like stature.
[Heroine] (Oh, I wonder if I can remember his face... ...)
I become anxious.
However, my uneasiness subsided when the other members of the CCK spoke after Reonadisu.
[Vincent] I am Vincent!
[David] I am David!
[Radorado] I am Radorado!
[Knack] I am Knack!
[CCK] Nice to meet you!
[Heroine] (Oh, cute... ...!)
[Mejojo] Here stop and get your reward of nuts.
[Reonidasu] Thank you! Thank you for this meal!
Their movements are commanded..like toy soldiers.
[Mejojo] I will entrust this to you.
[Heroine] What?
Mejojo got something out of his breast pocket.
There is the fellows' favorite nuts inside. Give them this as thir reward.
[Heroine] Ah, thank you... ....
A nut for a knight who serves his prince... .... The knights that are lovely beyond imagination.
[Heroine] (... ...Roughly?)
The knights of CCK are restless as I speak with Mejojo. If my ears are decieved... ...
[David] ... ...It is!
[Nakkuna] Nuts... ...
[Rad] ... ...Coming.
[Vincent] Reward... .... Only Reonidasu... ..., tricky... ....
[Reonidasu] Hey, I am not... ...!
The conversations in whispers are heard.
[Heroine] (Eh, how cute... ...!)
Even right now, if it was me who wanted the nuts, I would also be nervous.

...When, I was told. To deny the truth, Mejojo went on indifferently with a story.
[Mejojo] These fellows are told to take care of your personal needs.
[Mejojo] It will be good to tell want you want to these guys. They will take care of it at once.
[Mejojo] These fellows must not forget and you must not forget that you are being watched either. You may go out in the garden too... ....
[Mejojo] Your whereabouts are reported to me at once. Don't do anything troublesome.
[Mejojo}] You are a witch, do not forget that. If you try to run away--I'll kill you.
[Heroine] ... ...Such.
[Mejojo] You will be good and obedient. Reonadisu, watch her carefully.
[Reonadisu] Yes! Mejojo-sama!
[Mejojo] Do you understand? Tell me?
[Heroine] ... ... is, ... saying ... ....
[Mejojo] It is getting late, now it is night time. It would be good for you to get some rest.
[Heroine] ... ... ... ....
Without much explaining, Mejojo walked away barely making any noise with his foot steps.
I was left behind, with only the view of his back.
[Heroine] (Well... ...?)
I don't understand a lot. If this was normal, you could call this hospitality though I'll be watched for a long time.
[Heroine] (What... ...?)
[Auger] Big Brother is not so straightforward. This stuff is sweet though.
[Heroine] Auger... ....
Auger smiled at me who was stunned, mouth hanging open at Mejojo's sudden departure.
[Heroine] Ah... ....
[Auger] There, good. Big Brother is careless and forgot to remove the chains.
[Auger] Just wondering, do you like restrained play with the chains?
[Reonadisu] I don't understand!
[Auger] Shut up, I'm not speaking to you. You may go now.
[CCK] Oh!
[Heroine] (Speaking of which... the chains)
I was taken out of the tower, it was necessary to spend this time with the chains on, now my senses are numbed because of it.
[Auger] I don't think my brother is bad. Because, he was thinking of you.
[Heroine] Eh?
At those words when I was looking at the red marks around my wrists from the chains, I looked up.
[Heroine] Me, what... ....
[Auger] Brother and I also don't believe that you are a witch. We don't believe that.
[Auger] The things you'll believe, those poor villagers. They sure are stupid~
Auger delcares how everyone is foolish with his hands behind his head nonchalantly.
[Heroine] Eh, but then why... ...?
[Auger] Because you are a witch in Earl Edgar's territory. He is growing fear and popular discontent.
[Auger] When left alone, in worse shape, the complaints may turn into an explosion.
[Heroine] Bad shape?... ....
[Auger] For example, the witch of Shall Messen that the people want to defeat?
[Heroine] ... ...!
The villagers believe that I am a witch as the stare ahead, recalling their stories.
It frightened me that so many people believed it.
They believe that their purposes where self-defense, their own protection, and to kill me.
[Heroine] (They'd be sorry, if it came to that point... ...)
The castle servants will return fire back to the soldiers. It'll be a complete riot.
A shiver goes through my back, at the possibility.
[Heroine] To defend us... .... Is that what Mejojo is doing?
[Auger] Is that so? Brother is really nice!
[Auger] That farce was meant to protect you. I think you should be grateful to Brother.
[Auger] You are ugly.
[Heroine] U, ugly?
[Heroine] (How mean... ...)
[Auger] Ahahaha, it's a joke. But, hey things like that. This was Big Brother's idea?
[Heroine] I thought so... ....
If that was so, you could be convinced to this situation.
[Heroine] Is this why you prepared such a wonderful place?
[Auger] Aha, Brother made them prepare it for you.
[Auger] Until the commotion dies down, just stay here leisurely.
[Heroine] ... ...Yeah, thank you. Hey, does Nesso and Father know?
[Auger] I don't think they know yet. Just look at the situation and keep talking to me. Don't worry.
[Heroine] Thank you Auger. I didn't understand you and Mejojo. It was scary... ....
[Heroine] That's good. I'm relieved to understand the circumstances. Thanks so much.
[Auger] Will you come to me, if you get worried?
[Heroine] Eh?
[Auger] These ears, this tail will bring comfort instead of those two dogs.
[Heroine] ... ...Eh... ...?
[Auger] However I play the tune, it is lonely being a court musician.
[Heroine] ... ...Thank you, Auger. I seem to be clear of the misunderstanding now.
[Auger] You're welcome. Now, I'll be going. Good night, Heroine.
[Heroine] Good night, Auger.
[Heroine] (It's not bad as I thought... ....)
[Heroine] (Father, Nesso, and Zara must be worrying though... ...)
I look around my surroundings. A beautiful garden like this was made not to ever be tired of.
[? ? ?] ... ... ... ....
[Heroine] ... ...?
I look around restlessly not finding Mejojo or stupid Auger. I feel something like a gaze.
[Heroine] (My imagination..., I think.)
My nerves could be for various reasons.
[Heroine] (Or, are the people of CCK keeping watch from..., somewhere)

They said that they would take care of me. It is not amusing even if it keeps from within the range where my voice is carried. 
[Heroine] ... ....
I let out a breathe to release the tension, slowly looking around the garden again.
[Heroine](Ah, such a wonderful place, they prepareed for me. I'm sure, and I'm not in a bad place. Yeah ...)
I believed so, and set foot into the room Mejojo prepared.
[Auger] Kukuku~tsu, Haha ha ha, ha ha ... Haha! Aa, the other really! It 's the best!!
[Auger] Everyone, come on how foolish. What are you doing, boiling pus?
[Auger] Ahahaha, it seems to have become interesting.
[Auger] Heroine Galland. Don't break immediately.
[Auger] Now that something fun has come along, I want to play a song.
[Heroine] (Today is my birthday... ..., I wish)
I sat on the chair in a room in the garden that Mejojo prepared, and was looking at beautiful scenery that stretched outside the window. 

It is my 16-year-old birthday today. During this time yesterday I frowned at the bad weather, I should be looking forward to it.
[Heroine] Why, these kinds of things... ....
I don't know what time it is anymore, I sigh.
Storm seems to have passed last night, today is yesterday's bad weather turned pleasant as lie.
The garden was illuminated in gentle sunlight, very beautiful and impressive.
[Heroine] (The party tonight would have been prepared, this time when it was going to be true). 
A new dress was prepared for today. All of the employees were working on the preparations of the party and it existed. 
All of it has become useless.
[Heroine] ... ...Haa.
[Heroine](Oh dear, though only not being really confined, is pretty good... ...)

It was expected at first, and compared with "Confinement as the witch" though the situation now is welcome... ....
Nevertheless, unhappiness comes from being pulled away from home.
[Heroine] (I wonder how Father, Nesso, Zara, Pearl and Richie are doing... ...)
Everyone might surely worry about me very much. 
[Heroine] (It makes sense from Auger's explanation... ...)
Everyone is not distressed by me, I think.
[Heroine] Not that much.
From talking last night to Auger, rumors that I am a root of all evil, in the territory's Shall Messen seemed to be utterly floating around.
[Heroine] (Okay I wonder... ...)
When the villagers find out the "witch" is being sheltered... ..., the people will be storming the castle.
Pearl and Richie will have a scary time. Nesso and Zara will be in deep trouble.

I have become helpless. My bad imagination only leaves me in turmoil.
(Nesso, Zara, and Father... ...)
Now, I had become all alone.
Zara, Pearl, and Richie were besides me always. Yet now, it is just me.
[Heroine] ... ... ... ....
[Heroine] (... ...It can't be.)
I was reminded that that I was still a child.
I'm already 16 years old, being an adult is silly.
Always helpless, I'm crying about other people while I'm alone.
[Heroine] ... ...?
I noticed footsteps approaching and I looked up. I knew others were welcome here too.
[Heroine] Ah... ..., the Chu Chu Knights.
[Reonidasu] Reonidasu again. My best regards to you.
[Heroine] Ah, please take good care of me.
[Reonidasu] The present from Mejojo-sama has arrived.
[Heroine] Eh... ...? Mejojo's present?
His subordinates are carrying the rustling luggage.
Various sizes boxes, come one after another is brought into the room. And thanks to that is also a colorful, excitement in the room's atmosphere.
[Reonidasu] Here you go.
[Heroine] I see. Well... ..., thank you for carrying all these boxes. Since you were being good, should I give you some nuts?
[Reonidasu] Oh, nuts... ...No, we didn't do much... ...!
[Heroine] Oh, is that so... ....
The leader restrained himself after the word nuts were mentioned.
The subordinates behind him are noisy, while he, the leader was controlled.
[Vincent] Ah, leader... ....
[David] Nuts... ...,
[Rad] Stop that... ....
[Knack] But, the nuts... ...!
[Reonidasu] It is fine... ...!
The leader refrained even though there was noise and protest behind him.
The tails of the CCK hung in sadness after hearing his voice.
[Heroine] (When they are more comfortable, they'll come retrieve it.)
Isn't it good for them to recieve a good nut cheap?
It is painful.
[Heroine] Well ..., but it's fine once you have verified this content?
[Reonidasu] That is... ...!
[Heroine] (First, let's check the contents of the gifts.)
[Heroine] I 'll .... This, amazing, dress?
[Heroine] Shoes! This one here is?
[Heroine] Whoah. A wonderful necklace... ...!!
I'm excited, checking the contents of Mejojo's presents.
The feelings of loneliness seem to have gone somewhere.
[Heroine] (Anyways, I feel happy.)
I was feeling amazed, having recieved such a nice gift, I had brilliant feelings.
[Heroine] (Thank you, Mejojo.)
I open the wrapping paper of presents, one after another while getting excited.
[Heroine] ... ...Fuu.
When I'm done opening the finally all of the boxes, around me had become utterly messy. 
And the colorful ribbon, how the wrapping paper is spread on the floor, but the sight, it looked exactly like a birthday.
[Heroine] Even... ..., why on earth?
[Reonidasu] Mejojo-sama said that there will be a ball to celebrate your birthday held in the palace tonight.
[Reonidasu] It is an order for you to wear the dress. 
[Heroine] ... ...!!
[Heroine] Mejojo... ...!
The order, a ball to celebrate my birthday, it's unprecedented treatment.
After all, I am "a witch being constrained at the castle".
Last night Auger, it ...... it but he had a say it like that to convince the villagers, apparently it was true.
[Heroine] (I wonder how big of a party.)
The Galland Family still stands as an important family in Weblin.
If it is not a secret party, then surely the Galland Family will be invited.
Feelings just lighten more and more if it is thought that it might be able to meet Nesso, father, and Zara that has been pulled apart in such shape. 
[Heroine] (Really fantastic dress... ...!)
At a glance, I can see the labor that went into making it.
And shoes, even one by one small items such as accessories, reminiscent of that probably has been carefully selected, I can see how nice they are.
[Heroine] Hey, leader. I have a question!
[Reonidasu] I am just following Mejojo-sama's instructions.
[Reonidasu] I am a knight who gave Mejojo-sama my sword. If you cannot follow instructions, do not call my name.
[Heroine] No, it's not a big deal. Can you give thanks to Mejojo... ... Tell him Heroine was happy.
[Reonidasu] ... ...!
[Reonidasu] ... ...I understand. I will tell Mejojo-sama.
Only a little, it felt like the leader softened, I think.
[Heroine] (However, and the fantastic dress really . However, ..how to put it on..). 
If it is a simple type of dress that is worn as everyday wear, I could wear by myself but, it is a full-fledged dress for dance, and a little painful to wear alone.
[Heroine] ... ... ... ....
[Reonidasu] Wha, What is it?

[Heroine] Uh... .... Yes, you couldn't help me change. Could you... ...?
[Reonidasu] Wha, wha wha wha wha, what did you say!
[Vincent] Shameless... ...!
[David] Such a thing to ask of us... ...!
[Radonattsu] Even if it was for nuts... ....
[Knack] Ah, but if it waas for nuts... ....
[Reonidasu] ... ...!
One of the knights who's resolved swayed by nuts, was punished by the leader's fist.
[Reonidasu] Sorry, I cannot help.
[Heroine] (Huh... ...)
I was not anxious because they were small and lovely but, I guess they are male.
Even the other party might be a large problem if it sees. It doesn't go because it asks forcibly. 
[Reonidasu] Don't worry, we will come back with a servant... ...!
[Heroine] Oh, no really?
[Reonidasu] Yes. Heroine-sama will be taken cared of, Mejojo-sama already has arrangements.
[Heroine] Thank you, I'll survive.
[Reonidasu] Ah, they seem to have come.
[Heroine] True.
I hear footsteps coming toward us.
[Reonidasu] Then, please excuse me.
[Heroine] Yes, thank you. Give my thanks to Mejojo.
[Reonidasu] We understand.
Then the small mice knights bowed and left leaving me with the employee.
And... ....
[???] To come straight to the point, here to take a bath.
[Heroine] ... ...Eh?
I was urged by the young person who has just entered and  being natural, I froze. 
It is natural.
He arrives and is a young person of cat kind usual, even the knights of the CCK hesitated, unlike that person in my presence now. 
[Heroine] Well... ..., you... ...?
[Julian] Oh, sorry for the late introduction. I am Julian.
[Julian] You are in my care.
[Heroine] Eh, ehhhh? Take care of me?
[Julian] Yes, I will care for you. Please.
[Julian] I will guide you.
[Heroine] ... ... ... ....

[Heroine] (My idea is too much... ...?)
[Heroine] You are the only guide, right?
[Julian] Yes, I will help with your grooming and appearance.
[Heroine] Wait. Please wait.
[Heroine] (Wow ahhhh)
My face reddens.
Helping straighten my appearance... ...he says it so naturally. He will dress me.
I don't know whether to follow him into the bathroom or not.
[Heroine] (Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible, and impossible... ...!)
For women of nobility, it is unheard of male servants being alone with them with the prescence of other employees.
Even if it is shameful that my skin is seen by a man, servants don't necessarily count.
What an idea.
The servant is made to help me change my clothes unabashedly, ... ... and, according to the circumstances, he even help me bathe.
But, I differ.
Surely there is no difference between Zara and this servant. But, Zara always had a do-it-yourself policy.
[Julian] What's the matter?
[Heroine] E, ehhhh... .... I don't feel comfortable with just you... ...!
[Julian] It was said that you'd be taken care of by me. Or ... ....
[Julian] Have I given you trouble?
[Heroine] No! It's not that! I'm okay!
[Heroine](The one that is not safe is my heart.)
It. It is embarrassing.
Both of us reacted wrongly.
I'm not acting as the daughter of an aristocrat to the other party, the employee.
[Heroine] (Therefore, you don't need to have that expression do you... ...?)
There is no problem in his attitude.
[Julian] Am I no good... ...?
[Heroine] ... ...I'm sorry.
It is very useless. I'm trying to drop hints but, it is impossible.
[Julian] ... ...I am very useless, aren't I?
[Heroine] No that's not it! ... ...So, I'm getting the sense that you don't understand well.
[Heroine] Until now, I've never had anyone take care of me or bathe me.
[Heroine] Though you might be an employee... .... It is just impossible, in my conscience.
[Julian] So... ..., I haven't been a bother to you right?
[Heroine] Yes, of course. If the other party had been a man even if it is not you, I wouldn't allow it.
[Julian] ... ...I see. Let's call the maid then.
[Heroine] Really?
[Julian] Yes. And, I thought you could have been taken care by these hands... ....
[Julian] I don't want to go against your wishes, I will be back with your maid.
[Heroine] ... ...Thank you.
He showed his understanding with regret.
[Heroine] (... ...Good.)
Feeling relieved, the tension leaves my shoulders.
[Julian] I'll be leaving to call the maid. Please wait a while.
[Heroine] Understood. ... ...Thank you.
[Julian] No.
He bows repeatedly, leaving the room quietly with a smile.
Maids came at once at his call.
[Maid 1] Hello, Lady Heroine. We will assist in the bathing of Lady Heroine.
[Heroine] Oh, yes. Thank you... ...!
I would refuse the help but, decided not to until we got there.
After all, I sense the shifting emotions.
[Maid 2] With great ease, I will also be of assistance.
[Heroine] ... ... Please treat me well.
I also steel myself against their words and responses.
And,

[Maid 1] Now, we're here Heroine-sama.
[Maid 2] I will take off the clothing.
[Heroine] Wha, wha whaaaaat!?
My resolution was not enough at all, girls' hands pulled on my clothes.

Heroine's Room in the garden
[Heroine] (Imagine that... ..., someone my age being put in the bath, sure... ...)
The employee is supposed to wash me as an aristocrat, and I am inexperienced though it might be a natural act that says very much. 
Not to be infected by the sickness of the Lobeira kind.
Naturally, the employee who exists in the tower is necessarily minimum, too and, therefore, the habit of basically doing things for myself is attached.
[Heroine] (You could ask for combed hair... ...but, to be dolled up in makeup occassionally.)
Getting my hair done, being washed, these were first time experiences.
[Heroine] (Oh, I was nervous.)
I know the girls were doing their job, I wasn't accostumed to touching my bare skin.
[Heroine]... ....
It went  from bathing, the dress was dressed, it was put up, the hair was done, the make-up was put on, and, at last, it was possible to rest. 
[Heroine] Yes, please?
[Auger] Good evening, Heroine. I came~.
[Heroine] Auger!
I opened the door and was greeted by Auger and a mouse knight.
[Heroine] Mejojo?
[Auger] Big Brother is in the hallway. ... ...Fuu fuu, that dress though, it suits you well.
[Auger] A costume.
[Heroine] Eh? Did you say something?
[Auger] No, it's nothing~ That dress is really pretty. That's my brother for you~
[Heroine] Thank you. For giving such a wonderful dress and accessories... ...
[Heroine] I wanted to give my thanks to Mejojo earlier.
[Auger] After listening to those words, I'm sure Brother will rejoice.
[Auger] It seems you are done preparing, may I have your permission to be your escort?
Auger says and stretches out his hand in gentlemenly conduct like the prince in the picture book.
[Heroine] (Though, Auger really is a prince.)
[Heroine[ Please continue to treat me well, Auger.
I put my hand in his like a princess.
[Auger] Witch like happiness.
[Heroine] Anymore... ...What witch?
Auger immediately took me out theatrically.

wow..... amazing....
