DeotoxSlayer: /* Chapter Eight: The Eve Before the Final Battle in Newcastle */

===Chapter Eight: The Eve Before the Final Battle in Newcastle===

{{Template:PREVIEW}}
----

The warship named "Eagle" took Saito to the ragged coastline of Albion. It took three hours of traveling and they already could see the cape.

A big castle was standing on the very edge of cape.

Wales explained to Saito, who was standing on the front deck, that it was the castle of Newcastle. However, "Eagle" did not head straight to Newcastle, but sailed downwards the coast.

"Why are we going downwards?"

Wales pointed at the sky behind the castle where a huge ship was floating. However, it could not see "Eagle" which was hiding on the other side of the cloud.

"Warship of rebels."

It could be really described only as a huge ship - it was twice as long as "Eagle" with an incredible number of sails, an it seemed like it was aiming for Newcastle port. With no warning it opened fire aiming at the castle. The first cannonball crushed into the wall and small fire could be seen. The shockwave from impact could be felt on the deck of "Eagle".

"This ship named "Royal Sovurin" once belong to the fleet of our country. Yet, when rebels took control over it, they changed the name to "Lexington". It was named in an honor of the battlefield where those guys snatched the first victory from us."

Wales said with a smile. You could see a hole


"This warship keeps a constant blockade of Newcastle from the sky. It shoots at the castle from time to time, not in order to do some damage, but just to annoy us."

Saito looked through the cloud at the warship. There were a lot of cannons on each side, and the dragn was painted on the surface of the ship.

"It has 108 cannons and really looks like firebreathing dragon at times. Whole rebellion started from this ship. We can't match it so its better to sail through this cloud and left unseen. We can reach the Newcastle from the other side, as there us a secret port that only we know."

<center>* * *</center>

It suddenly became pitch-dark when ship went under the continent, as sun could not shine because of it, besides they were still surrounded by cloud. They couldn't see a thing. Wales explained that rebels never went under the continent because such traveling way was dangerous. Cold, damp and chilly air hit Saito's cheeks.

"We mostly use light measurements and magic for navigation as there is no real navigation building in royal air force."

Wales laughed, that noble that does not know the sky is not an intelligent person.

They sailed for a while, and then the magic was casted and you could see a hole of 300 meters in diameter. The sight was breathtaking.

"Stop here for now."

"Aye Aye sir, stop here!"
　
Wales order has been given to the crew that was still very energetic and lively. They sails were taken off and Eagle started to drift right under the hole.

"Slowly increase the speed."

"Aye Aye sir, slowly increase the speed!"

"Eagle" , also named 'Marie Galante', started slowly heading towards the black hole.

Wardes nodded.

"You are definitely not pirates, Your Highness."

"We are most definitely the pirates, Viscount."

<center>* * *</center>

　
The light could be seen inside the hole and that's where the 'Eagle' headed to.

The warship had arrived at a secret port of Newcastle. Inside the huge limestone cave, that was covered with emitted white moss. Many people were waiting on the quay. The rope where thrown to the sailors to tie down the "Eagle". And finally the wooden gangway was attached.

Wales hurried up Louise and others to go down the gangway.
　
Tall and aged mage approached them.

"Ha ha, wonderful military results, right, Your Highness?"

The old mage seems to appear out of nothing before the Eagle.

"I am happy, Paris. Sulfur it is, sulfur"

When Wales shouts so,around him gather soldiers cheering.

"Ooh! Sulfur! This is for the honor of our guardianship!"

Old mage began to cry as he was aging.

"I served for sixty years for previous king... There wont be such happy days again, Your Highness. After revolt happened it all turned into sorrow... Even with sulfur we won't make it..."

Wales laughed with a smile.

"Even if we'll be defeated, we'll show the revolters the royal family's courage and honor. "

"Death in a glory. My old bones are trembling with excitement. I was reported that revolts are going to attack the castle tomorrow. Its really all or nothing now, Your Highness."

"With our last breath we'll put their solders to shame!"

Wales end others are laughing at an ease from the bottoms of their hearts . Louise became worried after hearing word defeat. In other words, they will die. Aren't these people scared of death?

"And who are these people?"

Old mage, that was named Paris, asked Wales after seeing Louise.

"This is an ambassador from Tristain. Came for an important kingdom business."

Paris was surprised for the moment, what would be the ambassador from another kingdom be searching in these ruins?　But soon smile returned to his face.

"So you are an ambassador. Paris Chamberlain is at your service madam. Its nice that you came all the way to the Albion.

Though it might not be much, we will have a small fest tonight. By all means - please come."

<center>* * *</center>

Louise and others followed Wales to his room. Prince room was suited behind the kitchen room and it was rather ordinary looking.

A wooden bed, table and a pair of chairs. Also a painting on the wall that illustrated a scene from the battle.

The prince sat on the chair and opened the drawing. There was a little jewelry box. Prince took the necklace off the neck.

And a small key was put into the lock f the little box. Wales opened a box. Henrietta's portrait was lying in there.
[[Image:ZnT02-201.jpg|thumb|Louise received the letter while deeply bowing.]]

Wales, who had noticed Louise looking at the box, said embarrassed.

"Strongbox."

There was one letter in the inside. It seemed to be from princess too. Wales took it out with love and read. That letter looked older than it should from constant reading.

After reading it Wales gently folded it and put it into an envelope. Then he handed it to Louise.

"This is the letter I got from princess. I am returning it as well."

"Thank you."

Louise received the letter while deeply bowing.

"Eagle will take you back to Tristain tomorrow, as we won't be using it in the battle.

Louise opened her mouth decisively after looking for some time at the letter.

"But, Your Highness... What did you had in mind when you said being defeated with a glory?"

Louse asked with a hesitation. Wales answered it very easily.

"It is so. My army has 300 men while enemy force has 50 000. There is no possibility to win. So let us at least die in a glory.

Louise looked down.

"Your Highness, Do you also mean yourself when you say about dying in the battle?"

"Of course. I will die as well."

Saito, who had been looking at the communication from the side, sighed. The prince being so little worried by the death tomorrow made it all so confusing. It seemed that it was not reality but an event from the play.

Louise shoulders dropped when she bowed deeply to Wales. She had more things to say though.

"Your Highness... Forgive the my impoliteness, but there is few more things I have to say."

"What do you want to say?"

"What is the content of the letter?"

"Louise."

Saito protested. Indeed the content of the letter was a personal thing after all. But Louise after asking Wales looked up in a determined way.

"When princess gave me the task she looked like worrying about her lover. And in the box there was a portrait of the princess, and seeing the gloomy face after you kisses and read the letter... Are you and the princess..."

Wales smiled. He guessed what Louise wanted to say.

"Do you want to say that cousin Henrietta and me have love relations?"

Louise nodded.

"It seems so. Forgive a surprising impoliteness. If so, the content of this letter is..."

After putting his hand to his forehead, and doing the gesture that worried for a moment about what to say and what do not, Wales said.

"The love letter. Just like you guessed it. Foolishly, if this love letter is passed to imperial household of Germania as Henrietta informed by letter, it might become a great threat. In the letter she is swearing eternal love for me in the name of Founder Brimir. If it is like an oath when marrying, love sworn in the name of the founder . If this letter is exposed under the daylight, she will be accused for commit the crime of bigamy. The emperor in Germania is sure to break off the engagement with the princess who violated rules. Then, there would be no alliance.Tristain might get political ignoration from other countries noble families."

"So princess and Your Highness had an love affair?"

"Its a long story."

Louise said to Wales in a feverish tone.

"Your Highness, return! Return to Tristain!"

Wardes abruptly put his hand on Louise's shoulder. However, this did not stop Louise.

"I beg you! Please, come to Tristain with us!"

"It cannot be done. "

Wales said with a laugh.

"Your Highness I disagree. Princess does not agree as well! Wasn't it said so in the latter? I know princess from our childhood days, I know her ways of thinking well. Princess does not deserve the people she loves! Your Highness, you didn't say that, but I am sure princess told you to run away as well!"

Wales shook his head.

"There is not such line written. "

"Your Highness!"

Louise kept on pressing Wales.

"I am from a royal family. I am not lying. There is no telling by the princess for me to run away in the letter, I swear it with my honor."

Wales said as if he was in pain. Seems like Louises words hit him.

"Henrietta is a princess. She has to give priority to the country rather than me."

Louise understood what Wales meant with that. Even if Wales likes Henrietta, it would never be supported by other nobles in his situation.

Wales tapped Louise's shoulder.

"You are a honest girl, La Valliere. You have honest, clear and kind eyes."

Louise looked down lonesome.

"But let me give you an advice.Its not too good for an ambassador to be honest like that."

Wales smiled with an attractive smile.

"However, you are a perfect ambassador to the ruined country like ours. Because government that will be destroyed tomorrow is more honest than anyone. Since it doesn't have anything to defended besides the honor."

After that he put something out of the pocket. From the shape and running arrow it seemed to be a clock.

"Ahhaha, time came for our little party. Since you are last guests of our kingdom, I would like you to attend it as well."

Saito and Louise went out of the room. Wardes stayed behind, and bowed to Wales.

"Oh do you have some more business, Viscount?"

"There is one favor I would like to ask, Milord"

"Ask."

Wardes whispered into the ear of Wales, who smiled.

"Ah such a lovely request, it will be my pleasure."

<center>* * *</center>

The party was held in the hall in the castle. The king of the Albion James I sat in the throne, and nobles and vassals who have gathered through narrowed eyes.

Though tomorrow everyone will die, it was quite a feast still. And the table was filled with various treats.

Saito and others were watching this colorful party while standing in the corner of the hall.

"They put all the troubles of tomorrow behind and try to enjoy the moments of the present."

Wardes nodded in response to Saito's words.

"Yes, they behave joyfully."

When prince Wales showed up, there was some enthusiastic sights between ladies. Seems like he was a popular not only as a prince but as a handsome man as well. When he approached the throne, people started whispering.

James I tried to stand up straightly and come to greet him, but because of his old age he staggered and almost fell down.

Some laughter could be heard from the hall.

"Your Majesty! Its too early to fall!"

"Indeed! Save that for tomorrow!"

James I wasn't insulted by such comments, and smiled.

"Don't worry, its just me legs were numb from sitting for so long."

Wales came closer and supported kings body with his. There were few more chuckles now.

"You. I will tell all of you brave and loyal vassals, that tomorrow 'Reconquista' is planning to attack our Newcastle with their full force. You followed and fought bravely for this incapable old king, however tomorrow won't be a battle. It is likely to be an one-sided slaughter. Lets endure it and show our bravery for one last time."

The king coughed loudly, after that he continued talking.

"But it might be asking too much for all you to die. Thus tomorrow morning the warship "Eagle" will take all women and children and the ones who chose to leave to safer place further from this forsaken continent."

However, no one answers. One noble loudly informed the king.

"You Majesty! We are waiting for the order! [Full army! Full army! Full army!] since our hearing is so bad tonight I doubt we will be able to hear any other orders!"

All people nodded.

"Yeah! What would others say if we were to run away?"

"It's too late to retreat , Your Majesty"

"It's alright! We will continue to serve the king like we did years before! Tonight is a good night! The founder has blessed us with a wonderful moon and warm night! Let's enjoy drinking and dancing for tonight!"

With this everyone returned to the fest. The three guests from Tristain attracted a lot of attention.The nobles didn't seemed to be sad or worried, they playfully kept on joking and offering wine or food to the guests.

"Ambassador! Try this whine! Tell which country whine is better!"

"Here! Try this! Its Albions special - chicken with honey, will make you healthy and strong for sure!"

Albion kept on having fun! Even in the end.

Saito became melancholic. The people who acted joyfully at the face of death looked more sad than brave. Louise seemed to have felt it more. She couldn't endure the atmosphere, shook her head and ran out of the hall.

For a moment Saito wanted to follow her, but urged Wardes to go instead.

Wardes nodded and went after her. Saito crouched on the floor and sighted lonely.

Wales saw Saito acting this way and came to him from the center of the hall.

"This boy is miss La Valliere's familiar. However, it is very unusual for a person to be a familiar. Tristain is really unusual country."

Wales laughed while saying so.

"It is unusual in Tristain as well. "

Saito said tiredly.

"Feeling down?"

Anxiously, Wales looked into Saito's face. Saito still felt pain in his arm and seeing people preparing for their death was depressing as well.
　
Saito stood up and asked Wales.

"Sorry for impoliteness... But aren't you scared?"

"Scared?"

Wales looked blankly at Saito.

"Arent you scared to die?"

Wales laughed after hearing Saito's words.

"You are worried about us! Us! What a nice boy you are!"

"No, it's just that it is scary for me. I could not laugh the way you do if I were to know that I would die tomorrow."

"I am scared. There is no person who would not be scared to die. It doesn't matter if you are a noble or commoner."

"Then why?"

"It is because I have something to defend. Something that makes me to forget the coldness of the grave."

"What do you defend? Honor? Fame? Those are a foolish things to die for."

Saito said with louder voice.

Wales answered with distant eyes.

"Aristocrat fraction 'Reconquista' is our enemy that tries to unite Halkeginia. It hangs to the 'sacred ground' ideal. Its good that people have ideals as that. But, it shouldn't be united with force and blood. All countries will be ruined."

"However, is there no winning chance any longer? What's the point to die in here? Maybe you can find other means to defeat them later..."

"No, we should at least show off at least a glimpse of courage and honor to other nobles with it even if is not possible to win, we can show that Halkeginia's royal families are not a weak enemy. Even though they do not seem to throw away the ambitions of 'Union' and 'Recovery of the sacred ground' anytime soon."

"Why?"

Saito said. Saito who grew up in a modern Japan could not understand why one would show one's courage in such way.

Wales declared decisively.

"Why? Easily, it is our obligation. The obligation of ones born in the royal family. The obligation imposed on the royal family to defend kingdom to the very end."

Saito has not understood. However, because Wales has the person whom he loves,and who loves Wales as well. Isn't surviving for that person also an obligation? He thought in such a way.

"The princess of Tristain loves you. Did you forgot her letter?"

After Saito's words Wales smiled recalling it.

"Because of love , sometimes it is necessary to pretend not to know. Because of love , sometimes it is necessary to leave. It will only give excuse for others to invade Tristain."

"But, but..."

Saito hesitated. Wales's decision won't be changed. Wales gripped Saito's shoulder and watched straight into his eyes.

"Since it is cleared, don't tell this to Henrietta. No need to worry her pretty face with unnecessary worries. She is like the pretty flower. Don't you think so too?"

Saito nodded. She indeed is a beautiful princess. I don't want to see her face sad or worried as well.

But, Wales won't change his decision because of that.

That's what Wales eyes said.

"Just tell her that Wales fought bravely and died bravely. That will be enough."

Wales returned to the center of the hall after saying that.

<center>* * *</center>

Saito left the feast, but since he felt lost, he asked the waiter where his room is.

When he was explained where his room is, his shoulder was tapped from the back. Saito saw Wardes standing when he turn around.

"I have to tell you one thing."

Wardes said in a stony voice.

"And that would be?"

"Louise and me will hold a wedding here tomorrow."

Saito's body has froze. He wasn't able to understand the meaning of the words for the moment.

"A-at such time? Why?"

"Because we want to ask that brave Crown Prince Wales to act as go-between of our marriage. Crown Prince pleasantly agreed. Will hold a ceremony before the decisive battle."

Saito became silent, and nodded.

"Will you come?"

Wardes asked. Saito shook his head.

"Then you can leave at once with a ship tomorrow. Louise and I will return with a griffon."

"But isn't too long distance for this flight?"

Saito, because he was confused, asked rather a trivial question.

"Only if you would fly fast without resting."

Wardes answered.

"Well then, I need to go now."

"A-alright."

Saito's shoulders dropped.

Though he knew that this will come eventually, he still had this very lonely feeling.

<center>* * *</center>

Saito was walking in a pitch-dark passage with the candlestick.

The moon was shining through an opened window on the way of the passage. There was a girl who walked alone in the moonlight.

She had long blond-pink hairs... Tears that looked like pearls was falling down her white cheek. Saito looked quietly admiring for a while such beautiful but sad face.

Louse turned around and noticed Saito, who was tanding there with wax candle. Her eyes were wet even though she wiped them.

Louise face became sad once again. When Saito walked up to her, she leaned into his body, as if loosing all her strength.

"You are crying, why..."

Louise didn't answered but pressed her face into Saito's chest.

Saito embraced her firmly.

Saito at first was puzzled by Louise clinging on him. He wasn't used to these kind of things. However, she sobbed like a girl, and it felt like Louise clung to him very dearly. Louise was hurt and he felt sorry for her. However, what does this mean?

''Probably Louise clung to me because I was here by chance. As the girl clings to the stuffed animal. It is not me but is Wardes that I really important for her.''

However, Saito did not said anything, and patted Louise's head in an awkward way with his hand. Louise's head seemed so small and fit in his palm.
[[Image:ZnT02-217.jpg|thumb|]]

Louise said while crying.

"No... Those people... Why, why they chose to die? Even though there is the princess... Even if Wales love her... Why does Crown Prince Wales choose dying?"

"He said that the purpose is to defend the important one. "

"What is more important in this world than the person you love?"

"I don't understand prince's way of thinking as well."

"I will persuade! I will persuade him again!"

"Don't."

"Why?"

"Because, you are here to deliver princess letter. This is your only mission."

Louise muttered while tears kept on streaming down her cheeks.

"...I want to return soon. I want to return back to Tristain. I dislike this country. These foolish people and unreasonable prince that leaves everything."

Though Louise sometimes acts tough she is still a girl. Louise cannot understand the world of Wales. But Saito understood her as he thought the same way as well.
　
Louise, as if suddenly remembering, took something out of the pocket.

"Put out your left arm." Louise said.

"What?"

"Just do it."

Saito presented his left arm as he was told. It was a can that Louise took out. She scooped inside with her finger and took some sticky medicine, that had some funny smell to it.

"I got it from the person in the castle a little while ago. This magical water medicine is very effective against burns. I could get only this medicine. But it should be alright."

Louise muttered while she was lubricating Saito's arm with it.

''I never thought she could be so gentle. But I should not become dependent on this gentleness too much as it will be gone soon.''

Saito shook his head and pulled Louise's badly away from him. Louise looked up at Saito's face surprised.

Saito had an painful expression on his face.

After seeing such Saito's face, Louise bit her lip.

"...Why Such face. Did something happened?"

"Its nothing."

"I understand. As soon as we will return back, I will search for the way to bring you back to your world."

Louise said while hesitating. Apparently, she misunderstood it. However, Saito thought it was good to let it be this way.

"...Its Alright. Even if you won't help."

"What?"

"I mean you will marry soon, so you shouldn't bother about searching the way how to bring me back."

What. Don't tell me you worry about it? You still think about words said in the La Rochelle hotel? Indeed, I said 'Marry' at that time... But, but I wasn't serious about it."

Louise turned her face away from Saito.

"It is not possible to marry yet. I am still not an splendid mage... And I haven't found a way to bring you back either..."

Saito thought.

Indeed, Louise might not marry because she feels responsible for me. And because of that she wont be able to marry until I find my way home. But Saito thought that it was not fair for Louise. I do not think this is fair for this dazzling, beautiful, nice and gentle Louise.

"Its alright. I will look for the way to return alone. Therefore, you must marry."

"What a selfish thing to say, you are my familiar! Defend me till we can find a way to bring you back!"

Louise said so and intensively stared at Saito.

"I cannot defend you."

Saitos shoulder dropped down lonely when he said it.

"Remember what happened."

The spectacle of travel revives in Saito's head. When they started shooting the arrow, he was saved by the cantrip of Wardes. He was defeated in the duel with Wardes. When they were attacked by a man in a white mask, he could not saved Louise.

''It is always Wardes saving the crisis. I was not able to o a thing but to stand and watch.''

"I am not a strong mage like Viscount. I am just a normal person, even if they say I am a legendary familiar 'Gandálfr'. I don't know how to fight. However, all I can do is just swing the sword around recklessly. Thus I cannot protect you."

Louise palm hit Saito's cheek.

"Coward!"

Saito said without changing his expression.

"Let's separate from here Louise. You return with viscount and griffon while I will return with 'Eagle'. When I will return I will look for the way to return to my world. I am indebted to you as the things are already."

"Are you serious?"

"Yeah."

"Idiot!"

Louise shouted. Tears started running from her eyes again. Still, Saito doesn't answer. He just watched trembling Louise.

"I hate you! I hate you!"

Saito muttered while vailing his eyes.

"I know."

Louise turned on her heels and ran down the dark passage. Saito patted his cheek. The place where it was hit still ached and made Saito feel very sad.

"Good-bye Louise."

Saito said in a small voice. Though he thought that he will not cry, tears were streaming down and did not stop.

Good-bye, my gentle and lovely master. "

DeotoxSlayer: /* Chapter Seven: The Prince of a Dying Country */

===Chapter Seven: The Prince of a Dying Country===
{{Template:PREVIEW}}
----

Saito was caught and imprisoned by the pirates. It seems like Marie Galante's crew has helped to take over the ship.

The sword was taken up from Saito, and the Wands were taken up from Wardes and Louise. Therefore, their hands and feet were not confined. Without Wands mages, just like the weaponless Saito, were harmless. Though same cannot be said about Louise.

In the background, one could see wine barrels, cereal sacks and gunpowder casks disorderly thrown around. Heavy cannonballs were piled up in the corner of the room.

Wardes explored such cargo with a great interest.

Saito sat down in the corner of the hold. He was frowning because of the pain in his injured arm.

Louise looked with a worried expression after seeing Saito's such state.

"...What. As I thought, the injury hurts after all."

"It's nothing."

Saito said snappishly.

"It's not nothing - show me!"

Louise forcefully gripped Saito's arm and tucked up clothes.

"Kya！"

It looked really awful. Due to the Masked Man's lightning spell a severe injury going from shoulder to wrist was inflicted on the left arm. More so, it seemed to be getting worse.

The shoulder was under an awful convulsion.

"Is that not awful burn?! Should I feel relieved now?!"

Louise shouted. She stood up and started knocking on the door

"Somebody! Somebody come!"

The guardian stood up.

"Eh?"

"Water! Is there a mage? We need a water mage! There is an injured person! Need to heal him!"

"There is no such thing."

"Lies! It is so!"

Wardes who was taken back with a surprise, watched Louise dumbfounded. Saito gripped Louise's shoulder.

"Be obedient. You are the prisoner here."

"No！　I won't, you are injured!"

"Stop saying that!"

Saito shouted. Louise cringed because of Saito's threatening attitude. Louise's pupil started getting moist. However, Louise gulped down saliva and tried to fight back the incoming tears.

"D-do not cry."

"I am not crying. There is no master who would cry in front of her familiar!"

Saito turned his face away.

"I see."

"I would never cry in front of you."

Louise walked to the other wall and sat down, facing away from Saito. Her body was shivering. Saito headed towards Wardes and tapped his shoulder.

"Please comfort her"

"Why?"

"Aren't you Louise's fiancé?"

Wardes nodded and turned towards Louise, and hugged her shoulders from behind, comforting her. Saito collapsed on the ground, averting his eyes from Wardes and Louise. The pain in his arm kept on getting worse. It was Saito's fault for preventing Louise from helping him.

It is a suitable punishment for such a worthless being like myself.

"My punishment... Doesn't hurt that much. Uwaa"

His muttering was interrupted by the opened door. A fat man with a plate of soup entered.

"Rice."

When Saito, who was near the door, tried to take it a man suddenly lifted the plate up.

"Only after you answered a few questions."

Louise, whose eyes looked puffy, stood up.

"Ask."

"What business do you have in Albion?"

"Traveling."

Louise said in a decisive voice, putting her hand on the waist.

"Tristain's noble, why would you travel to Albion? Why would you be sightseeing in such place?"

"I do not have to tell you such things."

"Still pretending to be tough, despite being scared and crying?"

Louise turned her face away, when the pirate started laughing. She grabbed a plate with soup and water to throw at him, but

Saito took it from her.

"Hey!"

"I cannot eat a soup made by such people!"

Louise faced away again.

"It's not healthy to stay hungry."

When Wardes said so, Louise took the plate of soup with the pouting face.

Three people ate the same soup from one plate. Though in normal circumstances that would never happen.

Wardes leaned into the wall with tired expression on the face.

Louise tore up the sleeve of the shirt and soaked it in water, trying to cool down Saito's wound with it.

"It's alright."

"It's not alright!"

Louise stared firmly at Saito with her puffy eyes.

"Because, you are my familiar, you have to listen what I tell you!"

Saito averted her face. Louise, who was treating his arm softly, looked up at him.

"What is it?"

"You have more important duties to care about."

"It is so, but injury is also very important! Clear?!"

Saito kept on looking away, before noticing the barrels with gunpowder.

"We could escape by using that."

"Eh?"

Louise suspiciously followed Saito's look. Saito opened the barrel and filled the plate with gunpowder.

Wardes muttered tiredly.

"And where would you run? Only emptiness surrounds us."

Saito sat down again with a thump.

"...but, sitting like that and doing nothing..."

At that time, the door opened again. This time it was a thin pirate standing before them. The pirate looked at them three with a piercing eyes and asked.

"Good evening, are you the aristocrats going to Albion?"

Louise did not answer.

"Oi oi, judging from your silence it's truth. Though we do not look like that we respect nobles. Thanks to the aristocrats our business goes well."

"But, isn't this a warship of rebels?"

"No no, though we are employed, we cooperates in the fifty-fifty relationship with each other. We are related to both factions. So how is it? Are you nobles? If it is true, then you will be let go free in the closest port."

Saito felt relieved. Since Louise is an aristocrat everything can be settled peacefully then. Also, they will be taken to the closest port.

However, Louise did not nod her head in agreement, instead, she kept on glaring at the pirate's forehead.

"How dare you have anything to do with those dirty rebels? Do not disregard Albion nobles. I myself am one of the noble families. The Albion is still a kingdom, as the royal family is still a legitimate government in Albion. Because I am an aristocrat who comes here on behalf of Tristain, I am, in other words, an ambassador. Therefore, I demand the ambassadors treatment from you."

Saito widely opened his mouth and muttered.

"Are you an idiot?"

"Who are you calling an idiot? The idiot is you! For trying to act cool while being injured so badly!"

Louise angrily turned to Saito and shouted.

"But! You should choose time and place for your straightforwardness better!"

"Shut up! You are my familiar and should listen to what I say! Anyways, show your arm! Hey!"

Surprised Saito clasped his arm. While Louise tried to pull Saito's arm with a jerk.

The pirate laughed after seeing such scene.

"Honestly, you should stop doing that!"

"You are wrong, I can't let you be hurt so carelessly."

Louise asserted.

"Eh?"

Saito said in a surprised voice.

"It's because you are my familiar... t-that's why..."

"I'll go to report to the boss then."

The pirate left laughing.

Saito was so surprised that he wasn't able to reply to Louise properly.

"Arm, show it."

"Don't act this way. Aren't there more things to be concerned of? Like our present situation."

Louise said decisively.

"I won't let such things to take me down, as far as we have a slightest chance to survive."

Louise stood up straightly. Though the thought about marrying Wardes made her feel funny at the start, it wasn't so strong anymore.

"…… In any case, you lied to them."

"Don't talk nonsense. Are you seriously thinking that lying to such people is a bad thing?"

Saito sighed tiredly. Wardes came near, and tapped Louise's shoulder.

"Don't say such things Louise, you are still my bride."

Saito looked away dejectedly. Louise face showed mixed feelings, as she looked down.

The door opened again, it was the same thin pirate who said

"The boss calls. "

<center>* * *</center>

The aisle passed up the narrow stairs and took three people to a splendid room. It was build on the upper part of the deck.

Boss... He seems to be the chief of the pirates.

As the door opened one could see a gorgeous dinner table and one pirate sitting at the end of it. He was playing with a cane that had big crystal attached on top of it. Seems like he was a mage himself. Boss' room where very different from what one would expect from a pirate.

He looked intensively at Louise who entered the room. The thin pirate who brought Louise here poked her slightly from behind.
　
"Hey, you, you are standing in front of the Boss so greet him properly."
　
However, Louise just stood there glaring at the Boss, who smiled at her.

"Ah, I like a strong willed woman, you are not a child at all. "

"I demand the treatment of the ambassador."

Louise, not paying attention to the words of Boss, repeated her demand.

"And what would be that message you are trying to give?"

Boss said ignoring Louise's words.

"And did you say royal?"

"Yes, I did."

"Do you go to [Nanishi]? They will be gone tomorrow."

"I won't tell you."

But Boss said to Louise in a joyful voice.

"Are you willing to betray the nobles? Otherwise, even if you are a mage I might not guarantee your safety even for considerable fee."

"I'd better be dead."

Saito poked Louise, at that time he noticed her body trembling. She was scared. But even if she was scared, she kept on looking straight into the eyes of the Boss.

Saito remembered his duel with Guiche.

I was scared at that time. I thought I was going to die. But I haven't bowed my head down. I think that Louise today resembles me at that time. She stands against a scary opponent but is able to withstand because she has something important in her mind, just like me.

This Louise looked really amazing.

"I'll ask you again. Are you willing to betray the nobles?"

Louise looked up straightly. She applied her arm to the waist, and put out the chest.
　
However, Saito interrupted her before she could open her mouth.

"She told her answer already."

"And who are you?"

The Boss looked at Saito with piercing glare. The eyes that seemed to see the deepest secrets. But Saito looked straight at the Boss, just like Louise did.

"A familiar."

"Familiar?"

"Seems so."

The Boss started laughing. He laughed loudly.

"I knew that Tristains nobles were weird but not so helplessly. Oh my, my stomach hurts."

Boss said so while standing up laughing. Saito and others were puzzled by the sudden change of atmosphere and looked at each other.

"Oh, I am sorry. As a noble I should properly introduce myself as well."

The pirate who was laughing loudly suddenly stood up straight.

He removed his black curly hair from his head. It seemed to be a wig. He also took of the black eyepatch, and also removed his fake beard. Before them now was standing a young person with blond hair.

"I am general of the Albion royal air force. Also the commander of our country fleet. Though to tell the truth this warship named "Eagle" is the only ship in our fleet. A powerless fleet. Oh dear, even people from street could easily beat it."

The young person bowed while introducing himself.

"I am the prince of the Albion's Kingdom, Wales Tudor."

Louise mouth opened wide, Saito also couldn't take his eyes from the surprising appearance of the young prince of Albion. Wardes watched the prince with great interest.

Wales smiled with a charming smile and moved a chair for Louise to sit.

"Welcome to Albion, Ambassador. Now, lets talk about your message."

However, Louise were still speechless. She just stood there dumbfounded, unable to move.

"Why do I dress up as a pirate? To hide myself? No, the rich rebels sent a lot of support to rebellion, and it is a basic war tactic to cut enemy's supply line. Even if I have to do that in such an undignified way as to dress myself up as a dirty pirate."

Wales said laughingly.

"No, it was really impolite to treat an ambassador like that. But you have to admit you don't look much like one royal messenger yourself. And I never thought about support from other country's nobles. Yet I still should apologize."

Even after Wales' words, Louise's mouth still opens and closes without a single sound. She wasn't mentally prepared to meet the prince so suddenly.

"We brought a secret letter from her highness princess Henrietta."

Wardes said while gracefully bowing.

"Ohh, from her Highness. And you are?"

"Captain of Tristain's Griffin Knights, viscount Wardes."

After that, Wardes introduced Louise to Wales.

"And this is her highness sent ambassador from the de la Vallière family and her familiar, Your highness."

"Indeed! Such a splendid noble. And I only have my ten bodyguards to greet you, such a miserable greeting. Then, do you still have the secret letter?"

Louise panicking took out Henrietta's letter from her clothes.
　
However, she stopped before giving it to Wales. After a few moments of hesitation she opened her mouth.

"B-but..."

"What?"

"Excuse me, but are you really a prince?"
　
Wales laughed.

"Oh dear, you won't believe me even if I showed you my true face. I am Wales. And I am really a prince. I will show evidence then."

Wales said after seeing the water ruby ring shining on Louise's finger.

Louise's hand was taken and the ring that shone on a finger was removed. The prince brought it close to his ruby ring. The two rings reacted to each other, shining with a bright light.

"This ring belongs to the Albion royal family, the ruby of the Wind, while that one belongs to Henrietta from Tristain royal family and is the ruby of the Water. Right?"

Louise nodded.

"Water and the wind make the rainbow. Rainbow that forms between royal families."

"True, I am sorry for my impoliteness."

Louise handed Wales the letter and bowed.

After looking at the letter lovingly, Wales kissed the signature. Then, the seal was carefully removed, the paper inside was taken out, and Wales began to read.

For some time he kept on reading it with serious expression.

"Is the princess marrying? That beautiful Henrietta. My beloved... cousin."

Wardes bowed silently, with an affirmative expression. Wales dropped the glance to the letter again. And smiled when the last line was read.

"Understood. The princess is informing me with this that she wants you to return that letter. And more importantly, the princess also hopes that I return a letter from the princess. Seems like it."

Louise face beamed up with pleasure.

"However, it's not in my hands right now. It's in the castle in Newcastle. I didn't want to bring the princess' letter to this pirate ship."

Wales said laughingly.

"So, even though its troublesome, please come with me to Newcastle."
