"Huh?"
"It's full of pride. I always look back at myself again and again because there is Ran."
"Eus?"
When I saw my wife with a mysterious face, Eustaf smiled again.
"I wonder if I'm better suited to the Lazian tune."
Ran opened her eyes wide.
"Lazia's Patriarch is Eus."
"Ran says that because I'm of Lazia's blood."
"Ek, no, not just that. Who else would do it if it wasn't Eus?"
"Didn't Ran already do it?"
"That's it-"
"It's temporary, but it was good enough. If Ran were my half sister."
Ran stuck out her mouth.
"I don't like that."
Eustaf said, as he lightly kissed her lips because it's cute.
"I don't want to be able to do this if you're half-sister. But if you did, I would be the first to assassinate Ran."
Ran opened her mouth wide. Eustaf spoke with ease.
"It would have been the biggest stumbling block for me to be a Patriarch."
"That's trully ········ Thank you so much for admitting it."
When Ran spoke with a sigh, Eustaf nodded. Ran smiled unknowingly.
"Eus, this is really weird."
You must have assassinated him, this is the highest compliment.
"Is it weird?"
Ran smiled again at him, who was looking at her. Ran grinned.
"Even if I wanted to be a Patriarch, I would have gotten rid of Eustaf first. Give me an important but dangerous position, send me a little outside, and then I'll-"
Seeing Eustaf look satisfied with the words, Ran thought it was hard to tell whether the standards of Eustaf were really strange or that of the aristocrats here were strange.
"Tomorrow, the upper Golden Rose week is coming."
"Yes, do you have anything to say?"
"No, Ran will take care of it."
"Yes, you can leave it to me. Then I'll leave the reorganization of the army to Eus. I really don't know about it."
There is no police here.
In modern times, the army and the police are separate, but not here.
From the town's security to the battlefield, all the soldiers and knights belong to the army.
So the size of the system is huge.
There are many things that Ran couldn't understand, so she was grateful and left the job to Eustaf.
Of course, each young man is in charge of security as a private soldier of the lord, but he is now the kingdom of Lazia.
Every major element will be assigned a kingdom army···········.
'I'd like to centralize it, but it's a little bit of a mix here.'
It is not a complete feudal system, and it is not a completely centralized system.
"Fortunately, it is not a public trust in the foundation, so it is enough to strengthen the throne....."
Eustaf nodded at Ran's murmur.
"And we have guardian dragons."
"Kyu-gyu, you mean?"
"...you didn't name it that way, did you?"
"No, I haven't decided yet. Everyone calls it Dragon."
"For it, I'm in trouble a lot. ·······."
"But the guardian dragon."
"It's a good sign. I can't hide it."
"What's the world tree?"
"It's something to be secretly sprayed on."
"Aha, I understand."
Ran nodded his head.
The existence of the guardian dragon is a public announcement.
The existence of world tree is unofficial.
"Mystery is important."
"It's important."
Ran said with a long sigh.
"When are we going on vacation?"
"About this summer, if you do well."
"Really? That fast?"
"Just at this rate."
Eustaf looked at Ran and said, I was fed up with the administrators under Ran, and they all said, "You're actually three or four, aren't you? Ran was working fast enough to say, "Ran, Romia, de, Lazia, are these four?"
Ran smiled satisfactorily.
"Then let's look forward to summer vacation."
*******
Levery watched 'Ran Boulevard' and was about to faint.
"Hort, you'll give me the right to preoccupy the harbor!"
Ran coughed in vain when she saw Levery, who was trying to hold onto her pants.
"Of course, the Golden Rose has been doing business with us for a long time."
"I know!"
At Levery's activism, Ran said with a grimace.
"Isn't it normal to have a poker face in a deal like this?"
"That's when there's really a replacement for the deal. This northern port is a must when the kingdom of Lazia is established. We need a ship in here."
"That's true."
Ran nodded her head.
Levery grinned and gathered her hands.
"You know I'm Half-Elf."
"I know."
"The northern port will use Elf and Dwarf, right?"
"Of course."
"Lazia is the only kingdom that has officially established diplomatic relations with this people."
"Not yet a kingdom-"
"You'll do it in spring."
"That's right."
"Then the one in the middle! Don't you think leverage is necessary? Between man and elf and dwarf!"
Ran smiled unknowingly. Levery smiled gracefully and said.
"Of course I'm not asking you to do it."
"Well, where do you want to hear?"
Ran smiled and said, and there was a small spark between the two women.
From now on, it's real.
*******
It was not until dinner that the two signed the new contract document.
With a weary face, both sides looked satisfied, and Levery happily left the Sky Mansion.
Ran also drooped down on the table.
'I got everything I needed.'
I didn't tighten Levery too much.
'We're going to give you an important place at the top of Romia anyway.'
When I thought about what to call the top name, Kara said, "Let's go to the top of Romia?" and I got a lot of votes in favor of it, so the top name became the top of Romia.
To be more specific, the top of R. Romia. I thought everyone would call it the Top of R.R.
'I'm embarrassed.'
The flag at the top was determined by a silver figure on a green background.
So the top of the table was prepared, and the time passed busily.
*******
The declaration of Lazia's independence as a kingdom arrived in the empire and each kingdom by the time it passed from spring to summer.
The Emperor of the Empire, Label, said, "As promised, we celebrate the independence of Lazia," and sent a document acknowledging that other kingdoms would cheat on the recognition of the Empire, whatever it may be, let's establish diplomatic relations.
The biggest reason is that if you lose Lazia and Duchy, you may experience a setback in getting the ice fix.
So, unlike a country that is independent as a kingdom, without bleeding, Lazia became independent as a kingdom.
The National established Day Festival took place tremendously, and wine and meat were given to the whole nationwide.
At the National established Festival, which took place for a month, envoys from all over the world visited and greeted, and everyone went back wide when they saw the dragon tingling in the garden.
The Marquis of Cyrus - now the Duke of Cyrus - also arrived with an invitation.
Elise smiled brightly and bowed lightly.
"Your Highness."
"Lize."
Ran approached and held Elise's hand tightly. She said with a smile.
"Remember what I said before? One day, even if I am not the Duke of Lazia, we'll be friends."
"I didn't know that meant to be a queen, Your Highness."
Ran giggled.
"But it's still in effect. Is that the same to Liz?"
"Of course."
Lizzie smiled and Ran answered with her arms crossed.
"Then I'll give you a special guide to the Sky Mansion today."
"I'm so grateful."
After answering, the two burst into laughter.
Looking at his wives, the Duke of Cyrus said to Eustaf.
"I'm going to have to call you Your highness now. His Majesty asked me to tell you that he was sorry that he couldn't come to greeted."
"It's strange that the Emperor of the Empire will come on the day of the founding of the Kingdom."
The Duke of Cyrus nodded at Eustaf's words. He looked around and said,
"That's incredible."
"What?"
"People's eyes. Everyone is going crazy to step on the Lazian kingdom. In fact, there is a lot of talk among the imperial nobles."
"At most."
At Eustaf's murmur, the Duke of Cyrus nodded.
"Well, that's not a noise at all right. The kingdom was amazing. The Black Dragon."
"There's no door anymore."
"By the way, did the Darkness and the Dragon really come out?"
"It's true."
"Ha."
Cyrus shook his head with a short sigh.
"Even if I don't want to believe it. I've seen the pillar of light, circle, and how my sorcerer fits. I knew I was coming here today, so I had a hard time separating them because they asked me to follow them."
"Was it seen in the Empire?"
"It was seen all over the country. And I heard you have a real dragon."
Eustaf nodded.
The dragon was now so big that it flew quite freely. Although It always come back to the Sky mansion because of Bob and Dragonfly.
"Oh, did you hear about the new Duke of Miro?"
Eustaf nodded. Cyrus grinned.
"His Majesty Label will be comfortable. He put the duke Miro on his palm."
"Because it's comfortable for me, too."
As long as there was ice crystal in Lazia, the Empire would always want to swallow it.
Label allowed Lazia's independence after a lot of discussion, and the most important thing was the importation of ice modification.
The contract was to export a certain amount of ice modifications to the empire every year instead of guaranteeing the independence of the empire.
It was a little too much, but I signed the contract.
It was because Ran said, "The demand for more and more ice modifications will increase, and even if we sign more contracts now, it will soon be insufficient."
Ran expected that just as the supply of electricity increased day by day, the amount of ice crystals that would permeate life would naturally increase.
"So it's okay to follow the contract."
It's not going to be enough.
So the behind work for the independence of Lazia was carried out comfortably.
Eustaf beckoned Cyrus to come near him, and he leaned over.
"This way, there will be a lot of rumors that there has been a behind deal between the Empire and the Kingdom this evening."
Eustaf spoke low, and Cyrus groaned and nodded.
"Of course It will."
"Then I'm too lazy to have a separate meeting. I'm getting tired of the emissaries of the kingdom."
If you're ambassadors to the Empire, you two can meet.
"Please don't use it as a reason to get out of the party."
While speaking, Cyrus was smiling, Eustaf said, "I'm sick of it," and began to walk.
When the Duke of the Empire and Eustaf disappeared together, the remaining people at the banquet began to talk.
*******
At a glance, Ran glanced at Elise's eyes at her.
"Why?"
"No, that's the famous Viridescent Crown ..."
"Ah."
Ran lightly caressed and laughed at the lovely little Crown stuck in her head.
"Is not."
"Right? It's pretty, but I thought it was too small."
"Should I show you?"
Elise nodded at Ran's words.
"Of course you're welcome."
Ran grinned.
Just in time for the Declaration of Independence, Elf and Dwarf brought a new set of green Crown.
Both sides had proud faces.
The work, which consists of a full set of Crown, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and rings, made me exude admiration.
In an instant, accessories of this age were such accessories that made them look crude.
"How, do you like it?"
Dwarf's craftsmen smiled broadly.
"I don't think I can be any better. It's such a wonderful piece of work. Oh, my God."
Every time she lifted things one by one with exclamations, craftsmen uttered a word.
The crown was a straightforward, dignified and imposing design. Carefully cut the jewels and decorated with platinum and diamonds, the crown looked like a good match for the ceremony.
"This heavy Crown can't always be worn."
Elf said so and separated the decorations in the colorful Crown, Ran opened her mouth.
The Tiara, which looks like a comb, has a large caritol in it, and a diamond as if it were shaped like the sun and stars around it.
It was a tiara that can be lightly decorated in such a place. Ran raved over the idea.
"Yes, it was a shame that I couldn't go around wearing the Viridescent Crown all the time."
And the comb-like part was supposed to fit into a large tube and fit into it.
Engineering attention feels like a Dwarf work.
The ring was made dancely with a small carat, which was designed like a guard ring and was supposed to fit perfectly alongside Ran's wedding ring.
Delicate consideration quickly overlapped the ring with the wedding ring.
The necklace was also a new design.
Not only caritol, but also rubies and sapphires were lavishly used, so the necklace was made up of dark colored jewels, which seemed lively.
Earrings were designed to alternate between large diamonds and caritols, and bracelets were about one cheek long, a pair worn on both wrists.
It was a delicate masterpiece made by stretching platinum like a thread.
Ran said she would use it instead of gloves in the summer, so Elise looked closely at the bracelet that would become a new trend.
Each design is distinctly different, but it fits together.
It was a more advanced fit than the same color of jewelry.
Above all, Ran always liked the ring that made it fit on her hands.
A tiara decoration on the head.
"Both sides suffered."
Thanks to it, we learned a lot.
While Ran was giggling, Elise swallowed her saliva and looked at the crown. I've never seen such a beautiful thing.
Elise poked her finger into the crown. The decorations trembled.
"This would be perfect for a dinner party. Anyone who wears this Crown will notice that the madam is the main character in that position."
Ran grinned at Elise's words.
"I think so, too."
And whispered.
"But can't we just talk about it?"
Elise looked around and shook her head.
"No, I'm sloppy, and then I might slip up in front of everyone. It doesn't matter, does it? We're still friends."
"That's it, but ······."
I felt sorry for her, so Ran stretched her shoulders.
Now that the country has changed, it will be difficult to meet.
Of course, there will be new people, but········
"Come and see me often, Liz."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Elise smiled broadly.
