The next morning, Sabine-chan and Beatrice-chan had recovered, so I let them continued studying makeup.
As part of our practical training, we went to the beauty club's sister and had her make up applied to us in turn.
One person had their makeup done while the other two watched.
...Why was I trying to make everyone learn makeup techniques?
This was to strengthen my influence in the "sorority" organization on the old continent!
Here, too, it was unveiled at the 0th tea party when the "sorority" was formed, which was a pre-launch meeting or briefing session.
After letting everyone admire Colette's face, which had been given a completely natural make-up by a beauty staff member, she wiped it off with a cotton towel soaked in water-type cleansing to remove it all at once, something like that...
Yes, combat-proof strategies give you peace of mind.
And, of course, after that, basic cosmetics were distributed free of charge for sample use.
There would be a charge from next time onwards. "Please buy it," same pattern as last time...
Japanese-made cosmetics were a popular product that attracted people, and they were responsible for the damage...For me, that was true, but for these people, Japanese cosmetics and makeup techniques were necessary in order for them to be used as a benefit rather than a "damage." It also became a valuable source of income for me.
...It was not the territory's income, but my personal assets, of course.
However, since there was no event like the attack on the eldest son of Count Solvain by Carlea, the daughter of Count Sielvert, in the New Continent, there was no makeup guidance from the beauty department, nor was there an increase in the ranks of the cosmetics sold.
However, I just showed Colette's face with makeup on as a sample, and a few images I took from the internet. ...She said that we should be free to do our own research...
So, although I had achieved some results, I hadn't caused as much of an uproar in society as I did with the New Continent (Society).
No, even so, it had the effect of making those who were in the category of "normal for a noble's daughter" suddenly jumped into the top group.
Three people, Sabine-chan, Beatrice-chan, and Colette-chan, who had completely mastered Japanese makeup techniques, would be added to the mix.
Then, the three of them would teach Adelaide-chan.
...While I was gradually providing new cosmetics and cosmetic tools that had not been provided to the members of the "Sorority" until now...
After that, Adelaide-chan would teach some of it to the other members little by little and provide them.
There were three purposes for this.
First, I wanted to further increase the combat power of the members of the Sorority, improved my ability, and provide additional armor.
Next, Adelaide-chan's position became absolute.
Adelaide-chan was given a permanent position as someone who was absolutely necessary for the sorority and who could not be replaced.
And unlike the "Society" in the New Continent, I was not very involved in the activities of the "Sorority" in the Old Continent (here), so my influence or centripetal force was weak. So, I was trying to shore up that.
...No, of course the heads of the aristocratic families respected me. ...most of them.
Well, just like Count Ethnol before the direct appeal incident, my success in the battle for absolute defense of the capital was only carried up as a portable shrine, some people thought that the divine soldiers were a secret unit of the Royal Guards.
Especially those who were in the territory at that time but not in the capital, or those who were burning with ambition to get ahead in the world and thought my presence was a hindrance...
Also, although I was called the "Lightning Archpriestess," I was not considered a Godsider.
However, I was just a little girl who called in my home country's soldiers with special weapons.
Those who had met me in person would be able to tell at a glance that I had neither the sophisticated mannerisms of an aristocrat nor the advanced conversation skills.
Well, I had knowledge that people in this country didn't know, but it was not something that nobility must knew.
And I didn't know much of that "things that nobility must know."
...Yeah, well, I guess I can lick it...
That was why people thought of me as "The daughter of a lower-ranking aristocrat from a small, faraway country whose name I don't know, who was simply carried as a portable srhine," or "A young girl from a rural aristocracy who was just lucky." Yes, there were aristocrats who were uninformed (low antennae) and children who were taught this way by their parents.
...And it was a karma that a young country girl stalked Her Highness the Third Princess (Sabine-chan) and clang to the daughter of a marquis (Beatrice-chan) who was the Great Saint (unofficial)......
Also, she suddenly became a nobleman, her territory began to develop rapidly. She became close friends with the King and the Marquis of Aibringer. It seemed that there were quite a few nobles who felt hostile or wary towards the Marquis Bozes family as Her Highness the First Princess showed signs of being interested in his eldest son, Alexis.
Yes, there were many decent aristocrats in this country, but that didn't mean they were all good people or saints.
Naturally, there were some bad nobles, and even if they were decent, the Bozes family and I might get in the way of their own interests.
When they did think, "This person is not a real messenger! You're just pretending like that, you're a fake!!" and be impeached, the prince might break off my engagement and be exiled from the country.
...No, I had never said that I was a messenger, and I had never been engaged to anyone, let alone a prince!
Well, if that happens, I'll just take Colette-chan and move my base in this continent (here) to the New Continent (Kingdom of Vanell).
In the unlikely event of an emergency, I would check with Sabine-chan, Beatrice-chan, and Adelaide-chan to see if they wish to seek asylum.
Should I think about where I want to go as an asylum then?
Somewhere on this continent, the New Continent (Kingdom of Vanell), and the earth.
There were many possible locations.
...That's off topic.
Anyway, in "Sorority", I didn't give out as many benefits as I did in "Society".
In this country (Kingdom of Zegreius), unlike over there (Kingdom of Vanel), there were various things such as my position as the head of an aristocratic family, my political position, and many other. There were not so many power relations and interpersonal relationships in the social world, so I couldn't lose my balance and make a mess...
Over there (Kingdom of Vanel), I was an outsider, and even if it was an act of nuisance, I was not responsible for any acts I did that I thought were good and not malicious.
Even if it caused chaos in social circles and human relationships, my purpose there was to "Gather information and have influence in the political and business world" and "To drag that country down." So, there was no problem...in fact, it was that guy who said, "According to plan..."
...But, of course, I wanted the members of the Society and other innocent, good people to be happy.
Responses at the national level and responses at the individual level were two different things.
People from certain countries on Earth were very nice people when you interacted with them as individuals, but when you interacted with them as a nation, they were extremely domineering and dangerous.
Well, that can't be helped, yeah.
So, anyway, it was a "makeup strategy"...
Of course, this would be activated after I had dealt him a blow in response to his "disgusting attitude towards me."
Now, what should I do...?
