"What?"
"Mo, monsters are coming in. But it's a huge number! It's so dense that we can't count the number of heads with the naked eye!"
"What?"
"What are you......!"
The Queen's expression changed rapidly.
I admired those expressions and added in my own words so that only me and she could hear it.
"The smooth light blue cloth is really awesome, so don't be fooled by its simplicity."
"You bastard! How dare you......"
Then Count Kim shouted and stepped forward.
He shouted like the soldier with a fierce spirit, as if to make up for his earlier mistake.
"Remember, you are talking to Her Highness The Queen. If you lie, you will not have your life left!"
"Well, really! It's not a lie at all. Really, monsters are everywhere like clouds......."
At that moment the ground rang as if to prove the knight's claim.
Thump, thump.
It was a pretty familiar echo for me now.
"Gasp!"
"Hey, this is... Are you saying the truth......a monster?
"That's ridiculous. Why all of a sudden?"
An undeniable tremor and agitation spread in all directions.
I could feel that the maids on both sides of me might have been embarrassed, but I could feel their strength weakened by their arms.
I think I'll be able to shake them off if they're just like this.
When I thought so, my eyes met with The Queen.
In the midst of this, she checked my expression of nonchalance, and soon her face was completely distorted.
"Did you do this?"
"Well."
"You did it. So this is the one you believe so much that you become so bold! How the hell did you do that?"
"I wish I could explain."
I don't know the principles of the enchanted cloth either.
Did The Queen think my own honest answer was to tease her?
- I didn't really mean it at all, but she gritted his teeth and shouted.
"If you did, I could settle it by killing you, Alice! Slice her neck right away!"
The Queen called out a knight with a pretty name.
Then a few eyes were turned to the knight, who had drawn his sword a little while ago, under the eyes of The Queen.
The knight lifted a sharp sword that was well aimed.
"........ugh!"
Then he cut off another knight that was standing diagonally on his own.
The Queen's eyes were literally torn.
".......!"
"Cha, Charles!"
"Alice! What the hell is this!"
"......was this knight's name Alice?"
A knight named Alice shook off the blood of a sword that had cut off his colleague.
Then he took off his tight helmet with a sigh of relief.
Short, light-coloured blonde hair was revealed under the light of the room.
At the same time, Count Kim jumped up from his seat.
"You bastard!"
"Alice, I know this prejudice is not desirable, but...... he didn't look like his name at all, right? His childhood must be pretty painful, right? Maybe it's better if his name was Alix. Well, it's no use saying this about someone who's already dead."
"Why, why are you here!?"
Ignoring the astonishing number or count's cry, Sir Davery threw the helmet to the floor.
I clicked my tongue on him.
"Just now, are you serious? Alix. Your naming skill is really....."
"Is it not good, my lady?"
"That's what I mean if you're going to change it that way, it's better to have Anris or something like that."
"Oh, I see."
While I and Sir Davery were having a flirtatious chat, the surroundings were filled with boisterous chatter.
"What is it?"
"What's going on...."
The maids' agitation also grew naturally.
I took advantage of this gap and pushed the maids away with all my strength in both arms.
Embarrassed by the sudden turn of events, they let me go without much resistance.
I got up shaking off my dress skirt with a free body.
Then, I hit a knight here with a handsome face, long legs and a well-knit physique, which has been standing silently on my right side since before.
"Jungkook."
Then naturally the answer came back.
"Are you done with The Queen?"
"Yeah."
I nodded.
"This is enough. My questions have been answered anyway."
"I don't care if I wait any longer."
"It's all right. Things are like this anyway, so let's wrap this up and go back."
"Okay then."
Jungkook then threw off the helmet with one hand.
At the same time as the rugged helmet, which covers the face tightly, rolled the floor, the knights near Jungkook fell one after the other without even screaming.
By this time the Count's face was now almost foaming.
"Ho, ho, how-"
"The Duke of Jeon."
The Queen spoke in a subdued voice on behalf of the count, who seemed to have had any problems with his tongue.
".......how is the Duke here? That's also my knights uniform."
"That's the thing."
It's a simple situation.
I said it without hiding it.
"As you can see, we changed it when there was a raid. We've taken care of all the men you've sent, and we've taken away their helmet and uniform."
".......!"
"Such a..."
"You killed them all?"
The surroundings were buzzing.
The Queen's expression was twisted as if it were unbelievable.
"Half of my own guard?"
"Yes."
They were The Queen's special force.
Well, it's not important.
I recalled the last day with a calm affirmation.
'So I'm going to do this, but....'
This was the measure I explained to Jungkook in the Oval Office that day.
One, to move naturally with the enchanted cloth attached to the inside of a dress like a fast skirt.
Two, if there's a raid in the middle, use it to turn this infiltrated into the enemy.
'For your information, the second was an idea that came to mind thanks to the killer they sent on the northern forest.'
Ironically, those killing workers I encountered in the northern forest helped me.
They pretended to be colleagues among the members of the Dark Knight then shouting and revealing their identity.
I never thought I'd use it like this.
Life really is a matter of routine.
And that day Jungkook heard my explanation and simply added one more thing to the plan.
Take him with me.
"Include me as an enemy on the way to deceive your opponent."
I originally didn't intend to be accompanied by Jungkook to the kingdom.
First of all, the distance is so far, and for the opponent to be careless and do something, Jungkook had to hide his face all the way.
However, Jungkook was adamant that he had no intention of backing down, so he decided to join the journey.
Well, actually if Jungkook was okay with that, it's more welcomed for me.
That's what happened anyway.
I added, looking at The Queen after a brief recollection.
"Because it was a nasty hidden raid, so I expected everyone would cover their face. And so that was it."
"......do you mean, from the start, you knew there would be a raid?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"I was suspicious. You weren't trying to save me, but you were trying to kill me, and after you laid the premise like that, I could see how it was."
If you invite me to the castle and kill me there, they will have many eyes to see and it will be hard to avoid responsibility.
So, in the middle of the raid, she handles it without witnesses, and the criminal blames others.
"It's a common method. It's reasonable. That's why we prepared it accordingly."
I swallowed one thing here that I didn't have to talk about here.
I may have intended to give the other person a chance by thinking of such annoying measures as to beat the other person's rhythm and then overturn it later.
If The Queen hadn't brought me to the middle of this deserted forest and tried to kill me.
If there was no raid on the way.
The enchanted cloth I have hidden inside my skirt would have been useless, and my people would not have pretended to be knights of the enemy.
So maybe I really gave The Queen a chance.
A chance to choose one's fate with a touch.
After all, it was The Queen himself who chose this situation.
I was faintly sorry about the fact, but as I said before, I didn't feel disappointed.
I guess the simple fact that she was the one who gave birth to me was not enough to raise any expectations.
I'm so lucky.
The Queen's expression was frighteningly firm.
She glared at me with a stone-faced face.
Then suddenly Count Kim stepped in.
"Hold on, wait a minute!"
He shouted with a look of incomprehension.
"The Duke of Jeon must have remained in the mansion when I left the duke's residence. I've checked it out! But how the hell did you...."
"There's a world you don't know."
I shrugged at the number of attitudes or Counts who seemed to have seen a ghost.
"It's a magical world."
'It's an evolutionary version of the reverse magic that you gave me the other day, and it doesn't change your appearance at random, it makes you look like someone specific. Is it possible?'
'It is possible, but...... First of all, I can only change the face. The voice and physique are difficult.'
'It's okay. The face is enough.'
'And it will last half a day if the duration is long.'
'It doesn't matter if it's half that.'
'Besides, the most important issue is... .'
'What is it?'
'This magic is illegal.'
"......."
"That's because it has the potential to be abused. You know what I'm talking about?"
'I know. I'll keep it a secret.'
'Must be. And you have to pay for this. I have to make a small request later.
'I know.'
