Intermission: Lulu  I had always been an unwanted child since I was young .

My mother worked as a maid in the castle, so since childhood, I was taken care by my aunt who lived in the castle town . I don"t have a father . When I was younger, I heard something about my father, but it was left aside .

"You"re really ugly . Go draw water so I don"t have to see that face . "

It seemed that my aunt hated my face, I was often told to do works outside the house .

My aunt and her husband had two boys and one girl of the same age as me . They"re Jido, Bado and Kuku .

Jido disturbed me by kicking me when I was just about to pull the water from the well .

Bado tripped my feet when I was carrying the bucket .

I was usually cautious toward them, but I didn"t see their figures today, it was a failure .

Since the water splashed onto soil, I had become full of mud .

"Yay, muddy Lulu . "

"Hehen, mud make-up looks better than your normal face y"know~"

I wept as I was more vexed that I couldn"t deny them more than getting myself muddied . It was a fact that people were gentler to me when I was covered with mud and my face couldn"t be seen than when I was just simply soaked .

When I was was.h.i.+ng my body near the well, Kuku came . She was with her usual sarcastic friends .

"Ara? What a waste of your special make-up . "

"Right right, wouldn"t it better if she wear mask anyway?"

"That"s good! Kuku, you"re a genius!"

The girls weren"t using violence like Jido and Bado, but their words hurt me all the same . At a time like this, I wonder how would Arisa retaliate?　If it was Tamchan, she would likely throw mud b.a.l.l.s toward those girls for their own make-up .

It was generally like these during my childhood .

◇

When I was 9 years old, my mother took me to the castle together with her . I was to be the princess"s playmate . It seemed that the fourth queen"s daughter was quite a sickly person . Moreover, she was really hard to please, n.o.ble daughters couldn"t keep her company for more than three days, so they turned to me .

Normally, for a commoner like me to meet a princess, I would have to take etiquette lesson for about a year first, but it seemed they gave up in 2-3 days, so the lesson was abbreviated .

"It"s Lili"s daughter this time?　Mou, I"ve said many times that I don"t need playmates, if they insist, then bring me a scholar or a bureaucrat instead . "

What I heard from the other side of the door was a child voice with tired and proud adult words that didn"t suit it . I"m not welcomed here either after all .

The princess that I met for the first time was a very beautiful girl with mysterious violet hair and pupils . Furthermore, her eyes were really calm like an adult .

Pushed by my mother, I awkwardly introduced myself, the princess glanced at me and then briskly stepped toward me and push up my bang . I always covered my ugly face with a bang so it wouldn"t be seen .

I prepared myself for the abuse that the princess would throw at me . But the abuse was different from what I expected .

"Cih, this riajuu face, winners have it all since they"re born . "

"Arissama, even though this girl can"t be said to have superior look, she"s a good girl that"s calm at her age . Please don"t hate her . "

Riajuu face? I"ve never heard those words .

Arissama leaned her neck to the side after hearing my mother"s word and murmured, "Poor look?" That"s the kindness of a mother . She couldn"t really say that her own daughter was ugly .

"What are you saying? Lili . If you tell me that this bishoujo face is poor, that"d mean this country doesn"t have any beauties you know?"

At this time, I had thought that Arisa"s words were an indirect sarcasms, but she told me later that she was serious .

Thus, I became the playmate of the princess .

◇

The princess that I served was a slightly strange person .

She ordered the servants to cultivate a field on the castle"s garden, and she went inside the library and treasure vault in the castle to read many difficult books . Even though she made her unusual clothes herself, she couldn"t do embroidery or knitting, she had many imbalances like that . Moreover, she was also not good with social dancing and poem reciting .

"Did you look at the new playmate of the taboo princess?"

"I saw I saw, what"s with that ugly girl . "

"Hey, they"ll scold you if you say that . "

I heard such backbiting from the the maid"s room . It seemed that taboo princess was about Arisa . Looked like, those violet hair and pupils were considered to be bad omen .

I didn"t tell about it to anyone, but the women were gone in the next day . The princess said, "Fufun, it"s impossible for malicious gossip to skip my sharp ears . " It seemed there was a magic tool to hear far sounds, it was called voice pipe .

At the following day, princess Arisa told me a children story called "The Ugly Duckling" .

Princess Arisa had told me many stories, but I liked this story the most

I wasn"t as naive as to think that I would become like the swan in reality, but I thought I was allowed to dream a little .

◇

Hectic days continued after that .

What surprised me most was the fact that I was the older sister of princess Arisa from different mother . It seemed she heard it with that tool called voice pipe from the other maids" talks . It should had been a secret, but princess Arisa already knew about it .

"With this, there are 12 siblings . There are probably more if I look in the castle town . I"d hate a country without entertainment . That"s right Lulu . "

"Yes, what is it Arissama . "

"I"m banning the "Sama" . "

"Yes?"

"Like, I, said, when it"s only the two of us, don"t use it . Since we"re sister, I"m banning the honorific . "

The face of pri--no, Arisa which had turned away looked red .

At this day, we became sisters, no, the best of friends .

◇

Arisa wanted to do agricultural reform to make this country prosperous .

However, I was worried . The minister"s son was supporting Arisa"s agricultural reform, but from the gossip of the maids, it looked like he wasn"t a decent human being .

"It"s fine, men aren"t trustworthy in the first place, but that kind profit-seeking type is surprisingly usable . Above all, this country only sees women as tools for giving birth . If I don"t have a puppet like that then I wouldn"t be able to meddle in the politics . "

However, after this day, the cogwheels of our plan began to go out of order little by little .

The mountain died, monsters came out of the fertilizers, and the fields" harvests dropped sharply .

But, I personally was more worried about Arisa than the country . Even though she was called, "The Wise Salvation Princess" just the other day, now as if flipping hand, they called her, "Country Destroying Witch", or "Mad Princess" .

Then the king finally confined her inside one of the spire in the castle . It seemed that our country had been occupied by another country, although I didn"t know the detail since I was only looking after Arisa while being confined with her .

The kings and his companions were executed, and we became slaves .

Arisa was looking like a doll with her lifeless eye and lethargic condition . She"s not like the usual stout-hearted Arisa, but she"s still a 10 years old girl . It is not unreasonable .

The strength in Arisa eyes came back after a year, when we were moved to the royal villa from the prison, it came back a bit . In the evening with full moon, the royal capital sank into flame . The two of us ran away to the mountain . We were surviving while being frightened by the wolves sounds, endured starvations by eating nuts, and drank water collected with leaves .

When we ran out of strength on the highway among the mountains, we got caught by a pa.s.sing slave trader . If we had not got caught at that time, we would probably die of starvation or fall victim to the wolves" fangs .

◇

"Guhehehehe~ . "

I felt cold s.h.i.+vers on my spine when I heard creepy voices from Arisa .

Aah! It seemed　that the stout Arisa had finally reached her limit .

Even though I"m clumsy and good-for-nothing, an older sister is still an older sister .

I don"t know what kind of person our master would be like, but I would protect Arisa until the end .

Even though I had such grim determination--

That Arisa, she was just laughing after finding her favorite type of young man!　Mou, that Arisa, mou!

It was several days later that the young man became our master .

My first impression on that person is, "He looks like me . "

He"s not ugly like me, but his features are similar . His lines are slender, his colors are also not white, but black like me .

But, I don"t think that he"s as pretty as Arisa make him up to be . I wonder what does Arisa like from him?

◇

"It"s quite tough . "

"What is?"

I was surprised when I heard Arisa"s story . That Arisa! She was crawling inside master"s bed in nude herself to get his favor . She"s too bold!

But, master didn"t seem to touch Arisa . Master should be only 2-3 years apart from Arisa, it was strange that he didn"t lay his hands on her when someone as beautiful as Arisa approached .

I wonder if master likes men?

◇

Today, I talked a lot about Arisa with master .

I noticed that I was talking too much in the middle, but I couldn"t restrain myself as I didn"t feel tense like I would with other men .

But, master listened me to the end without showing unpleasant face even once .

Furthermore!

Furthermore desu!

He didn"t look disgusted from seeing my face .

It might be the first time this happened beside with Arisa .

It might only be my misunderstanding, but I felt like he was looking at me gently full of affection . Even if it was misunderstanding, it is fine .

Since the only one who could cook was Liza, I offered myself to help her . I also had things I could do . I would work hard to become something that was needed, not only as a freebie from Arisa .

Ehehehe~ .

I got master to praise me, "Tea made by Lulu is delicious . "

This might possibly the first time I had been praised by a person .

◇

"Yes, listen to the sound well . "

Impossible . It"s impossible, master!

Y, you can"t whisper so close to my ears .

Aah!　I feel too happy, I would likely get a nosebleed . As a girl, I cannot live if that situation happen . I"ll endure with spirit .

But, it was not a whisper of affection . I earnestly asked the secret of the really delicious steak that master had made yesterday .

But it was not the time to listen to the oil at all when I was being embraced from behind with our hands stuck together holding the frying pan .

Even so, I still managed to grill one somehow .

When I sampled the meat, even though it was absolutely no match against the one that master grilled, it was many times tastier than the one I made yesterday!

As a proof that I was not mistaken, the plate became empty in a blink of an eye .

◇

It was exposed to Arisa .

I wonder how did she knew that I was attracted to master . It"s mysterious .

But, master is very popular .

Not only to Arisa, but to Pochi-chan and the others too .

Furthermore, this time, even the the elf princess!

"I, I will also work hard to gain your favor . "

"Yes, yes, you"re cute Lulu . However let"s wait the favor until you refine yourself as a woman in 5 years okay . "

Cute he said!

Just now, he said that I was cute right?!

Ah, I can die of happiness .

To think that the day I got called that so naturally would come, it was such an absurd thought even in a dream or a delusion .

Even though the rivals increased, we had got to share bed together, we even did "A~n" like lovers, it was full of happiness .

Becoming master"s wife or mistress are too unrealistic of a dream, but if some kind of mistakes happen, I would bear master"s baby .

When I talk about it to Aris-

"It"s alright Lulu! When I become the legal wife, I will absolutely make Lulu the second!"

Arisa is very reliable .

But, I can"t keep relying on Arisa .

I can"t match with my face no matter what, but I work hard every day to make my figure suit master"s liking . I"m still doing [Bust-up Practice] that Arisa and Mia have given up in three days .

And also my cooking!　I will improve my cooking to be equal for standing next to master .

And then, he would say "Lulu, you"re cute . " once again!

It"s an audacious ambition, but I will absolutely make it comes true .
