chapter 61
61 – Royal Road
Queen of the Kingdom of Fearless Katarina held her head.
“What on earth should I do…”
Letter from the Empire placed on the desk in the office.
The empire has recently been completely overturned, and the right of succession has been passed from the 2nd princess to the 1st princess.
A strong wind blew for a short period of time.
And finally, Duke Martin, a sorceress of Gold Dragon bloodline who had been hiding behind the scenes of power, took the lead in politics with the support of the 1st princess.
However, according to the intelligence received, the 1st princess was actually forced to become emperor by Duke Martin.
2 It was entirely Duke Martin’s side who ousted the princess and her forces.
I can’t even figure out why he suddenly did such a thing.
But from the kingdom’s perspective, there was nothing to worry about.
An empire is an empire, a kingdom is a princely state.
I just had to serve them as I always had.
It is not a situation where barbarians suddenly take over the empire and ask people to pay allegiance to them.
1 If she is a princess, her bloodline is clearer, so her validity shines even more.
Then why is Katarina tying her head?
It is the letter from the Empire that you just read.
It was a self-talk.
The contents are:
When Princess Siluano was suffering from false accusations in her hometown, she received great help from a sorcerer in your country and developed a love for her.
Please consider marriage.
And at the same time, a story about the benefits to your country and the numerous bribes (or bribes).
‘This is truly outrageous.’
The princess’s love is probably just an excuse.
The real goal is the sorcerer’s power and bloodline.
However, I had no idea that they would shamelessly ask me to reveal it so openly.
At the bottom of the letter,
‘In the future, the heir who awakens as a sorcerer will return to the kingdom and continue his legacy.’
It was written
.
Two colors of sorceress in one country.
Of course, the empire is a very large country, so it didn’t seem strange that there were two sorcerers.
But the problem is the kingdom’s position as it loses its power.
‘Are you aiming for rejection? ‘Is it a justification to aim for it?’
But the justification lies here.
If we follow the rules, this is a story that must give priority to the will of the domestic Tyler and Anderson families.
But the opponent is that empire.
This is not someone you can take lightly and reject.
‘Of course there are grounds for refusal…’
Tyler and Anderson have already talked to each other first.
But the problem is ‘evidence of promise.’
The kingdom’s wedding procedures are slightly different from those of other countries.
In most countries, once marriage talks are concluded, an engagement ceremony is held almost immediately.
It was powerful evidence that many nobles attended and saw with their own eyes, creating eyewitnesses.
But the kingdom is different.
In the kingdom, the engagement ceremony is no different from a real wedding, and the wedding ceremony held afterward is just a show, like a reception.
However, the empire’s regime changed some time ago, and there is no risk of harm to their prestige if they claim that they did not know.
‘We have to pass on our customs without causing offense…’
Nevertheless, ‘You have been rude to us.’ The message must also be clearly included.
I don’t know what they will use this rejection for in the future.
‘My head hurts… He’s not even real…’
Actually, that is the biggest problem.
Even if they really marry Thomas, they might go on a rampage, claiming that they were deceived because what they want is a real sorceress.
‘First of all, it is confirmed that it can never be sent…’
– Knock knock
At that time, the butler knocked on the door of the office.
“Come in.”
“Your Highness, a new letter arrives from Viln.”
“Viln? Why are you there all of a sudden?”
Katharina received her letter and opened it, expressing doubts.
Katarina’s expression brightened as she read.
“Oh, Betty found him and brought him back… But…”
As she read a little further, her expression suddenly hardened.
“Discovery of the second demon…”
Katarina held her head again.
————————————————————- ———-
“Have you sent the letter?”
“Yes, it has just been sent to the royal palace by magic express.”
Duke Martin sees a large man standing in front of him.
A man called Gab. He was still a little withdrawn after failing in his mission to bring Black back.
“Will the kingdom accept marriage talks…?”
The large man asks carefully.
“It would be best if I accepted it… But of course I wouldn’t accept it. Unless I go crazy.”
“Well, then….”
Duke Martin stands up and pats his subordinate on the shoulder.
“Don’t worry too much. Thanks to our princess, things are going well.”
“How do you say things get better when you get rejected?”
“After receiving an outrageous request, people are more likely to readily accept a normal request.”
Duke Martin laughed lightly and continued speaking.
“Diplomacy isn’t much different. Besides, she’s not that wise.”
“I don’t know what you’re saying…”
“Well, anyway, there are still many ways to bring him here. You finish your work well.”
As Gav bowed and left the office, Duke Martin sank into his desk chair and put the cigar he was smoking to his lips.
————————————————————- ———-
-Dad, tap, tap…
Me, Betty, and Team Calia are moving to the royal capital in a four-seater carriage prepared by the kingdom.
Seating arrangement with Betty next to me, and Kalia and Richari sitting across from us.
He said he would go on horseback because there was not enough space at Jespa. He is now riding on horseback with other escort troops next to the carriage.
“Betty, you better fall now…”
Meanwhile, Betty is clinging to my arm, glaring at Richari.
This is already the third request, but it seems like Betty has no intention of listening.
A heavy, soft, pleasant texture continues to invade one of my arms.
‘Let’s think differently, think differently…’
If you get an erection in this confined space with three women, there is no answer.
I remember the vampire demon I fought yesterday.
‘I ended up missing it.’
The guy who got hit by my oversized fireball took quite a bit of damage and returned to his human form.
But this guy,
“You’re hiding something quite powerful. But you won’t be able to use something like that twice.”
, He said, turning into fog again and putting pressure on us.
Thanks to a life-threatening situation, I immediately got used to the fireball.
By using Betty’s magical power without hesitation,
I created 10 oversized fireballs similar to those used earlier.
As soon as the vampire demon saw it, it turned into fog and ran away.
“Uh… Um….”
I was in trouble as I had 10 hot, large fireballs floating in the air.
‘If this explodes like this, I won’t be safe either.’
I hadn’t even learned dispel magic yet, so I decided to throw it as high into the sky as possible.
10 Extra-large 5-meter fireballs were launched into the sky.
-Puuu~~ Puuu~~
An explosion sound reminiscent of fireworks.
“It’s pretty…”
Betty looked at it and muttered in fascination.
The incident has come to an end, and our group is heading to the royal capital with the Sorceress Retrieval Team that arrived just in time.
And as Richari and I treated each other by our first names and treated each other without offense, Betty was now hanging on my arm like this.
However, Li Shari paid no heed to Betty’s glare and instead looked at Betty with her eyes shining and opened her mouth.
“Hey, hey, can I call you Betty too?”
“No.”
Betty pours cold water on an excited Lishari.
You could almost sense hostility in his cold tone.
“Stop it.”
Calia, who was sitting next to her, stopped Li Shari by lightly squeezing her head.
“Princess Tyler, please forgive your colleague’s rudeness.”
When Kalia bowed while sitting down, Betty then moved away from me and bowed to me.
“No. My attitude was also bad.”
I was a little surprised.
‘Have I grown a little…’
Betty was a very shy girl, but now she somehow felt like a worthy heir to the nobility.
‘What happens when I’m not around…’
Is it true that teenagers of this age are remarkable even if they only see a little bit?
Somehow I feel like my appearance and even my vibe have become more mature.
Naturally, my eyes go to certain areas.
‘Has it gotten a little bigger…’
“I heard that you protected my fiancé. I will fully thank you when I return to the capital.”
As Betty bows her head to Kalia, Kalia waves her hand.
“Ah, no. Rather, we owe the Sorceress our lives twice.”
“I’ve received enough examples of those, so just think that good is good and accept it.”
In fact, if it weren’t for them, I wouldn’t have arrived in Viln safely and would have become wolf food.
You deserve to be treated well.
It’s not my money anyway.
“Huh… If so, I’ll come and visit you when you get home from work at the palace.”
Kalia accepted as if she had lost.
But I suddenly became curious about their work.
“May I ask what happens at the palace?”
When Calia couldn’t make eye contact with me and mumbled, Li Shari came out.
“Ah, it’s nothing special. The request we received this time is from the imperial family of the empire. It’s about delivering items given to the Peeris royal family.”
“Yes, that’s right. It’s confidential by nature, but it’s okay for you guys.”
Calia took out an object wrapped in several layers from her luggage.
When the wrapping cloth was unwrapped, a luxurious box was revealed.
“Uh, this is….”
That box was a box containing an item that I had seen once, owned once, and had recently used up.
“It’s an elixir…”
