39 9. Secret Medicine of the Sea (2/2)

Claire breathes when she sees where Pearl disappears.

”What the hell are you talking about already? Why are the pearls so rough...”

I wish you could tell me why.

That's what I think, Claire, but I immediately notice Isira's presence. Claire knows everything about this country because of her role as an Aquasteed source.

Isira, who saw herself at a tea party during this time, was now on her knees shaking her body.

”You can put your face up, Isira Pearlant”

”Yes...”

Let me know what happened to Pearl.

Nodding quietly, Isira tells Crayle not to hide every single thing that has happened. Isira, who doesn't know about the Fairy King, just tells the truth.

When Claire heard everything, she said, ”Wanna hang out?,” he presses his mouth.

”No, because... Tiara Rose has Aquasteed. It can't be me. Is Pearl some kind of misunderstanding...?

…………

Claire, who thinks he hates him, couldn't figure out why Pearl went into such behavior. The only people who no longer know each other's thoughts are in person.

”So Pearl mixed your blood in a vial of liquid...... I wonder what kind of liquid it is. I can't believe I bothered to put Isira Pearlant's blood in. I don't think it's a bad thing, but... oh, okay.”

”Maybe it's the secret drug of the sea, the love drug.”

”Eh...”

To Claire's words, Isira is breathtaking.

I mean, if Aquasteed drinks that liquid - fall in love with Isira? With that in mind, Isira felt her face have a fever.

But soon, I shake my head telling myself I shouldn't. You can't let others like how Aquasteed feels. Isira blues her face in an instant and asks Claire what to do.

”But how could Pearl have done that? Because Isira Pearlant likes Aquasteed? Did you finally do it? You don't have to make Tiara Rose so bad in the first place.”

With his hands on his mouth and worried, Claire tells him to go to the castle.

There must be two of them there, Tiara Rose and Aquasteed. Isira snorted in a stiff manner while suppressing her anxiety.

◇ ◇ ◇

”Philine, I think this cookie is beautifully shaped!

”Well, it's adorable. Wherever you look at it, Your Highness Aquasteed.”

Without knowing the sea was starting to get rough, Tiara Rose was in the middle of making icing cookies in her own private kitchen.

Here, Marine Forest had plenty of stores handling confectionery ingredients. That was not a lapis lazuli, thus accelerating Tiara Rose's occasions.

”You have a lot of ingredients. This must also be because Lady Tiara Rose has become the official queen.”

”Yeah, you might be seeing more merchants than tailoring dresses.”

Chuckling, Tiara Rose put the cookies in the oven.

And then I can cook it, but the water makes a noise, like one day - Pearl turns up in front of Tiara Rose.

Filine knelt quickly so as not to be rude, and Tiara Rose also knelt down to thank her.

The vial Pearl holds in his hand is already empty of contents. I wonder what the hell they have, but Tiara Rose and Pearl are not in the kind of mood for an easy conversation.

”What is confectionery making here? - Oh, my God, is that supposed to be Crail?

”! This...”

I was going to bake it a second time, a cookie that followed the crail into Pearl's sight. Bite his lips tightly and Pearl points to Tiara Rose with a fan in his hand.

”How many times have you insulted me?” It sucks to hang out with Claire. ”

”No, Master Pearl! I'm baking someone else's cookies right now. Never just made Crail-like cookies.”

- Definitely, you're misunderstanding me!

Pearl doesn't have the ear to listen, though he tells the truth that he needs an excuse right away. Humph his nose and make the vial in his hand look like Tiara Rose.

……

”This is the secret medicine of the sea.”

”Hiyaku...?

- I've never heard of anything like that.

There was no such information in the book, in history, or in mankind. But Pearl says it, so it's got to be real for sure.

- But the contents are empty?

Pearl continues his words, as if he had read Tiara Rose's mind.

”I gave Aquasteed a drink. Now he won't see you again.”

”... Huh! Dear Aqua, why”

”Hmm. Maybe I wanted to see your painful face. This love pill is very effective.”

- Love pills!?

Tiara Rose is in a hurry not to know that such a thing exists. And at the same time, the question is under which circumstances, and to whom, that effect can be expressed.

I pray you are safe, Tiara Rose's ear, and a cruel word arrives.

”Now Aquasteed likes Isira.”

- Of the game sequel, heroine.

Tiara Rose shook her body that she could never be a heroine.
