Isekai Creations
Vol. 01 Chapter. 8: The only way

Using a horse-drawn carriage from the merchant who was about to stop by the city of Zerlicia, the three of them finally reached the city where, Lein was in.

"Lein, are you inside?", when they arrived, the three headed straight to the guild's office where Lein was a successor to the guild.

"Ah, Miss, have you returned?"

"Miss?"

When Lein calls Zerlicia Miss, the two are immediately shocked to remember that Zerlicia is not a noble. However, a woman with a stature like the age of 20 years, called Zerlicia who was just 17 years old as Miss. Of course it made them both surprised and curious. However, shortly thereafter...

Their curiosity finally answered. When they looked towards Lein's open belly, they saw a slave tattoo on the skin of her womb. No wonder Lein called Zerlicia Miss if there was a tattoo on her body.

"Zerlicia, are you enslaving someone?"

"Ah, for some reason, I have to do it. But really, it seems that I have gone too far" said Zerlicia to answer the question posed by Wayra.

"I have done wrong to Miss Zerlicia. Instead, he took over my life."

"....?"

They were wondering when Lein said such a confusing thing.

"He felt guilty for giving me a trap mission, it took up to 16 women while they were on a mission. And I was one of the victims of that mission. Luckily I was able to escape," Zerlicia replied to the curiosity of the two.

"Oh... But you're not someone who likes to enslave others, are you?"

"where possible. He gave himself to me. Moreover, he forced me. I don't want to have to do it" he said.

"Oh..."

The three of them were then taken to Lein's house. Being treated to a drink and a plate of biscuits, Zerlicia then opened her mouth at the moment they had gathered in a fairly quiet room.

"Lein, what do you think if I, overthrow the government?", asked Zerlicia with a serious look.

".... In my opinion, for someone of your level, it might just be done...Personally, I'm very opposed to what you did!"

"Why?"

"A kingdom cannot be overthrown with just one human being. Although humans were powerful, still, they were unable to match the might of the kingdom that had thousands of troops in it," Lein gave a logical explanation for Zerlicia's question earlier. His words were listened to well by Zerlicia. He also thinks so.

If it overthrows the kingdom without sufficient preparations, then it is like suicide.

"But there is one way, one way that only one person can overthrow the government."

In silence, Lein said with a smile.

"But this way I don't recommend because this one way is very dangerous" Lein said, explaining an effective way to overthrow the government.

"Why?!", suddenly, the three of them shouted in shock at Lein's words.

"Let me explain, this way, is one of the many ways and this way, the most dangerous but also the most effective" Lein continued.

"This way, involving the Demon Queen so that the plan to overthrow a government, can run perfectly."

"Queen... devil..?", everything gaped. Zerlicia.

"Make the Demon Queen your partner. And you can easily overthrow a country even if you have to do it alone" he said.

"The devil's queen, huh...?" wayra broke the tension.

"I know a little about the demon queen, but I'm not the right person to meet her. And here, there's someone right but, in that person's heart, there's still a damning worry in his steps" Wayra said staring at Zerlicia.

"I have to what?", Zerlicia asked with a face of despair.

"Because we've already started it, so. You still have to do it, Zerlicia."

"..... But.", Zerlicia still did not move even though Wayra had told her to.

"Look! If you give up in the middle of the road like this, it's not just me and Elsa that get in trouble! You will also get into trouble, Zerlicia! Think of your brothers! Don't you want them to grow up in a healthy country?!"

"I know but..."

"Zerlice!"

"Huh?"

In suspense, Zerlicia felt a water dripping down her cheek. He continued to turn around as Wayra occupied him but, when he felt a drop of water dripping down his cheek, he turned to look at Wayra.

"I'll give you everything! Please turn this rotten country into a country worth living in.", his face looked pitiful, tears kept streaming from his eyes, while yelling at Zerlicia, he said, Wayra continues to impose her desires on Zerlicia...

"You, beautiful woman," said Zerlicia as she grabbed Wayra's cheek above her and then, she began to wipe the tears that came out of Wayra's eyes.

"It's a pity that your beauty should disappear when you cry. You're a tough woman. You've been so good at surviving so far despite growing up in this rotten country," Zerlicia continued, then stroked Wayra's red hair, which drew her eyes.

"I beg you, Zerlicia!", he did not stop wishing while crying.

"Since you are older than me, you must have experienced a great deal of world cruelty. More than myself. In fact, come to think of it, I can't afford to be in your position."

"Zerlice!" he kept hoping.

"You, you're really cool."

Zerlicia then got up from where she was lying, looked into Wayra's eyes not far from her face, Zerlicia then said, "I hate women who break their promises. So promise me. Once I comply with your wishes, you will forever obey me."

"Whatever it is. I want our suffering to end quickly. And you're a girl in the prophecy."

".... Girl, in the prophecy?"

Instantly Zerlicia asked about the meaning of Wayra's words just now.

"A long time ago, there was a fortune teller who had the power to foresee the future. And the prophecy is a prophecy about a daughter who leads the world. That boy will be a very powerful and tough man. The boy is you, Zerlicia, I'm sure the boy is you" Wayra said of something Zerlicia had not known all along.

"..... So, what happened to that fortune teller?"

"He was executed."

"Yes, too. He works for the country anyway, I'm right?"

"Yes. So, Zerlicia, we are both willing to do anything to make this country a better country. I know this is less. Sacrificing two women to revolutionize the country, of course, it's a thing that is still not equal. But we are both ready to dedicate our lives to serving you, Zerlicia. So, I hope you accept my offer."

What a choice that really makes Zerlicia confused. Rather than being said to be a choice, Zerlicia felt that she should accept it. Not having to choose it. If he refuses, then the lives of his sisters will be disturbed even further. But if he accepts, Zerlicia does not know what danger will come next.

"I want you two to prove your determination by cutting your hair like me! I like short-haired women."

"....?!"

"What, can't you?"

"No. it's just...."

"Yes, that's it..."

"Wait, Zerlicia!"

"?"

"We will do it, because our lives are in your hands now," Wayra said as a Big Brother, representing her sister.

"Good, now, I'll cut your hair."

"... Fine."
