Princess In Another World: New Story
61
Tomorrow.
The sky palace had already started moving and continued on its way and in the next 2 days the sky palace had already reached the demon continent.
In library.
“Lucy, how about the royal alliance?”
“Yes, I get quite a lot, about 70 kingdoms.”
“Woow, that's a lot.”
“It includes kingdom of Victoria.”
“You can silence that prince.”
“Hah, don't underestimate me. The prince is indeed smart, but he is not smart in arguing.”
“Yes, your advantages are indeed in terms of arguing.”
“They are willing to provide assistance, but with 1 condition.”
“Terms? What is it?”
“She wants to join set up assault strategy.”
“Haaaa, if only he knew that I was planning to change the course of the war, I'm sure the foolish prince wouldn't do that.”
“Yes, I think so too. But since it sounds exciting, I let it.”
“Ria, can you return to Thorwn, please tell all the squad leaders to prepare themselves and also the troops they train. The time we have is very limited right now, I can't think of the time it will take until the seal that sealed Leiava is destroyed and he will be free.”
“Good.”
“Oh yes, also convey to the whole kingdom of the alliance to get ready, the battle will start soon.”
“But commander, for where is the battle location?”
“Death valley.”
“Huh? Isn't that valley near the border between Elves, Devils and also humans.” (Lucy)
“Yes, I got that information from the dragon king Homura. Because he was the one who saw the incident firsthand, so I can trust him. Leiava's location on the seal is in the valley of death. Tell that to the other kingdoms, tell them not to get close before the enemy appears.”
“Good.”
“Then, for me?” (Lucy)
“Hmmm, please set a strategy that allows other bad events to happen.”
“Aaah, I get it. Not knowing the true power of Leiava you want to prepare the worst option to prevent more casualties, so.”
“Yes. Can I leave that task to you?”
“Let's just relax, after all I'm on my leisure today and maybe for the days after. I'll do it, so just leave it to me.”
“Ya, thanks.”
“Then, Ari, how about me?”
“Still according to plan, if you want to come with me to the demon kingdom I will not stop you, but I will be more happy if you stay here.”
“I'll be coming.”
“I thought you'd say that.”
“You won't give me sleeping pills or anything so I don't come with you’?”
“Just calm down, I won't do that right now. So just relax.”
“Then I hold your word, if you don't take me I will hate you.”
“Iya yes. Oh yeah, Marie, Paul, and Naila are home, huh?”
“Yes, they said that they want to go home, if anything happens he said he will come directly here.”
“So, yes. Looks like this place will be quiet, and here will only be us 3.”
“I'll go with Ria, working on it here is fun but I can't leave it alone.” (Lucy)
“So, so there's only the two of us here, yes.”
“After all this sky palace is yours, so enjoy the day both of you for a few days.”
“Ya.”
Afternoon.
Perlust.
“Haaaa, this place is deserted.” I was reading a book here with Iona, and somehow this place feels so quiet now.
“Ari, what do you look sad.”
“Haaaa, I do love silence, but somehow now I hate it.”
“You are always with others, talking, and also discussing. I can understand your reasons, but they will definitely be back soon and this place will be crowded again.”
“You are right, maybe just wait for time until this place can feel alive again.”
“Iya, that's right.”
2 Days passed, and today is the time.
The demon lord's palace was already visible from up here.
“Iona, are you ready?”
“Huuu, haaaa, I'm ready.”
“Then...” I start carrying him.
“Wait.”
“Huh? What's up?”
“I want to be carried like a princess, like the one in the story.”
“Hmmm, you’ indeed a princess.”
“Mooo, come on.”
“Haaa, yes alright.” I obey. I carried him according to his wishes. “It will be more creepy than usual, so prepare yourself. If you're afraid you can close your eyes.”
“More creepy?”
Without thinking I jumped.
Thereafter.
I landed, for the first time I managed to land in the right place.
“Man!!”
“B-no, they're monsters!!!”
The demons that saw us running.
“Ari, do you understand what they are saying?”
“Yes, aren't you?”
“Not at all.”
“Hmmm, it seems like the ability to translate in the library is useful.” I dropped Iona off.
“K-you guys, stop what you want!!!”
The demon soldiers came they pointed their guns at us.
“Take me to your king, I want to talk to him. If not, maybe I can destroy this kingdom.”
“You've come.” (??)
Someone came here, he has great strength. “Paduka king. What are you doing here?!”
“So you, yes.” The demon lord came straight to me. “If this kind of talk can be done quickly.”
“You understand our language, it will be easier. Talk here is not good, let's come into my palace.”
“Paduka, are you sure to bring this monster with you?!”
“Don't worry, he's not here to start a war.”
Long enough after that.
The demon king's palace.
“The place is big.”
“Thanks for your compliment miss.”
“K-you can also speak human language?”
“Of course, I am the demon lord don't underestimate the demon lord's knowledge. But, I was also surprised by the person standing next to you, possessing great strength and also genius.”
“You know it?”
“If I don't know it I won't come to pick you up directly.”
This demon lord was indeed friendly, as told by the hero grandfather.
“The friendly demon king.”
“I accept your compliment it miss.”
After that, we arrived at the living room.
“You can sit first.”
“Wait, why did you know we were coming here?”
“Wah, lady calm down first I will answer your question later. Wait a minute, I'll take a snack first.” The demon king left.
“Ari, isn't this weird. He welcomes us, despite knowing we are enemies.”
“Hmmm, you said earlier that he was friendly.”
“Y-yes, I did say that, but..”.
“Sorry to keep you waiting, I brought you a snack and warm tea.” He put it on the table and then sat down. “Keep, don't panic like that I didn't put poison in the diet or that tea.”
“I can't trust you.”
“If such is no problem.”
“The demon king.”
“Call me Utarus.”
“So, then you can call me..”.
“Ari, and also Iona, true’.”
He knows our names. “D-where do you know? This is the first time we came here.” (Lion)
“Ahhh, the old hero explained it. Sooner or later there will be a pair of humans coming here.”
“Grandfather hero.”
“I can't feel her magic, she must have rested quietly.”
“Wait a minute, I want to ask you something important.”
“Nona, please ask any.”
“Why did you attack the human kingdom?”
“To survive, the purpose of this attack is actually not to rule the world but rather to survive.”
“Live on?”
“Iona, haven't I explained to you before. The land in the demon world is not as fertile as the land in the human continent.”
“Despite that, why should we do war?”
“Then, 500 years ago for the first time there was a human who invited me to talk. He told me all about humans, and also in return I also told him my reason for doing this. When I said it like that, he said that the action I did was right, but wrong.”
“Fright but wrong?”
“We demons are hostile to all races, you should already know that. Therefore the hatred of my people cannot be suppressed and that makes them all angry. The attack that my people carried out 500 years ago was actually to slightly expand power for our nation to live in, but my people forgot that goal and blinded it all. Seeing that, as their supreme leader, as a demon lord I feel very guilty seeing that.”
“The demon king feels guilty.”
“We also have feelings, love, and other things that other races have.”
“That was in the past, but why are you starting the attack again?”
“The goal is still the same, to make my people survive. The demon race also needs welfare, I am even willing if I have to sacrifice my life to protect and prosper my people.”
“Solve sacrifices.”
“But why start a war? Isn't there still another way besides starting a war.” In that case, Iona had already asked too much if she asked even more I was worried that the one she would hate was the human itself.
“T-but..”.
“Iona, do you know about Leiava who appeared 1000 years ago.”
“Yes, you told me before.”
“Actually, from what I heard from Homura the demons are the race that helped to crucify and seal Leiava. And the humans did nothing.”
“Homura, did you meet my teacher?”
“Yes, he has told me everything about you and your race.”
“I-it..”.
“Sometimes reality is cruel, humans only call heroes to defeat Leiava and let the hero fight against him without giving the slightest help.”
“Cannot.”
“Yes, but different from the demon race. They helped to defeat Leiava, he said, although not much help but the struggle and sacrifice of the demons in stopping the attack of Leiava for the second time is proof that in fact the demon race is much better than humans.”
“B-so.”
“Yes, but that was in the past. Even so I cannot deny that there are still people who behave like that now.”
“So like that, yes.”
“Nona need not think about, besides it has been a long time. There is no point in bringing up old wounds.”
“M-forgive me.”
“There is no need to apologize, the wrong thing is not miss but the people in the past. It has absolutely nothing to do with miss.”
“Despite that, I'm sorry for thinking so badly about you guys.”
“Ya, okay. Oh yes, the purpose of you two coming here?”
“To create a war diversion, we need your approval.”
“So right, yes. Leiava will rise soon.”
“Yes, the signs have started to appear.”
“Can we beat him?”
“There were only the first heroes and also the demon race who helped, but now everyone is participating. Therefore, demon king Utarus, pull your troops and I hope you can participate in the battle that risks the lives of all the creatures in this world.”
“Risking the life of the whole creature, yes. If you may know, what is your real dream?”
“My dream. Create a world where everyone can live quietly and harmoniously.”
The demon king smiled. “I'm looking forward to it, make the world like that. That way, it is possible that my people will not suffer again in the future.”
“So you agree?”
“Iya.”
“Then.” I took out a paper and asked him to sign it, and also gave the real stamp of this kingdom as a sign of proof.
After that, when we intend to leave.
“Devil king, I want to ask you something.”
“Nona, what else do you want to know?”
“Why did you agree to it?”
“I saw something great will be done by him, and besides if this world can be what he dreamed it to be then I am sure my people can live in peace and prosperity. Therefore, even though there was little chance I wanted to give him help to judge his big dream. Besides, I also benefit if until he succeeds in realizing his crazy dream. Did that answer satisfy you, miss?”
“Thanks. Ari, let's go back.”
“Eh, y-ya.”
In the sky palace, the resting room.
“Iona.” He looked glum after hearing the truth.
“Sorry Ari, can leave me alone.”
“Unfortunately I can't do it. I don't want to see your face like that, despite the fact that it's so painful but that's what the predecessors of ancient mankind did. That indeed is a shocking reality.” I held her hand. “I can't let sadness be seen on my beautiful and sweet wife's face.”
“You tried to tease me?”
“No, I just said what was in my head. Besides, I can't see you sad like that.”
“Then entertain me.”
“Hmmm, if you say so. What should I do?”
“You are my husband’kan, you surely know the thing that will make me happy again.”
“Shortly... Ahh, right also.” Using teleportation, I immediately moved in with Iona.
“This place..”.
“Place you like the most.” Flower garden in the interior of the forest, a place that is most liked by Iona. “Nothing much has changed from this place, it looks the same as last time we came here.”
“Yes, you're right. But, it's night here, lo. You take girls night and night into a dark forest like this.”
“There is moonlight, so it is not too dark. If it is too dark for you.” I used light magic to illuminate the entire area of this place. “Begin how? It already looks like daylight?”
“Yes, this is better. But, using that much magic is it okay for you?”
“Quiet, this is just a little bit of mana I use, not as much as when using teleportation.”
“So.”
Long enough after that.
“How, have you felt better.”
“Iya.”
“Then, want to come back now?”
“Why rush?”
“After this I want to go to HalfHuman kingdom and also Drawf to do some business.”
“Can I come?”
“Iya.”
Thereafter.
Daylight, in the HalfHuman kingdom.
“Wah, son, you come again.” (Reans) When I got to HalfHuman Kingdom, the first place I went to was the shop that belonged to Reans boss.
The store just opened in the afternoon, so it's a good time. “Can I ask for help.”
“Help? What favor? Just tell me, if I can I'll help.”
“Thanks.”
After a long time, I've explained my purpose here.
“War diversion, yes.”
“I have brought the required documents from the demon lord, and also 2 conditions from the 3 required conditions have been met.”
“Wait a minute, how do you know that? That is not something that can be known by young people and again people in this age. Yes, unless he learns a lot he will definitely know it.”
“Yes, I read about it in the sky palace belonging to the hero, then the more detailed explanation I was told by Homura the dragon king.”
“The sky palace belongs to the hero, and Homura, it turns out so, yes. You've met him.”
“Huh? You know the dragon king?”
“Yes, he is my friend. It's been a long time since I've seen him, I think he's fast asleep in his nest.”
This made me a little surprised, people seemed to be able to befriend the dragon king.
The shop door is open. “Sorry to interrupt the.. ahh, there is a guest turned out.” (Ornel) Ornel the lion-man walks into the tavern. “Bos, I brought you a few barrels of drinks of your order.”
“Put in warehouse.”
“Siap.”
“He works for you?”
“No, he only often helps here, after all he often drinks without pay therefore he helps.”
“So.”
“Regarding the transfer of war earlier, who will be the opponent of the diversion? Who is stronger than the demon lord?”
“Leiava.”
“Leiava. I thought it was just a story made up by the old man, I never thought it was there.”
“The seal made by the first hero is almost destroyed, and most likely Leiava can be free at any time and then he will start to destroy the entire land.”
“So, yes. If it was like that, I would do something about it.”
“Really? Thank you very much.”
“Yes, you can leave that task to me. You can go to other races to say this too.”
“Thank you, I was very helped.”
“No problem, if this entire land is destroyed then your dream will not be realized, not.”
“Thank you very much. Then, we'll go.”
“Ya, see you later.”
“Bos, have they left?”
“Iya.”
“Leiava by which they mean, what do-don't it..”
“Most likely it is.”
“Yes noble, what to do after this?”
“Set up as many troops as possible, this time the war is not to fight demons but against the true enemies of all races that exist in this earth. If it fails, then it's over.”
“Good.”
The Drawf nation.
The meeting went well without any opposition, this was a good thing because they already knew the real enemy had to be fought.
Sky palace.
“Ari, next is Elf race’an.”
“They didn't accept the alliance call from me, so I thought..”.
“Despite that, the current one who will be the opponent is not a demon race but a being that can destroy this world. If they did not fight back they would only die in vain. I think doing something and losing would be better than losing without doing anything.”
I smiled hearing Iona say that. “You are right, at least try first to be sorry rather than having to regret without doing anything.”
“Iya. Then let's go. Our goal, the Elf race.”
“Iya yes.” Our goal is the Elf race, making them willing to participate in the war this time around.
The elf village.
“Bby.” (Box)
“Eh? Seriously?”
“Iya, after all if it doesn't do anything this place will be destroyed. Moreover, the war-fighting letter you have obtained means that at this time the entire race in your alliance has agreed that our enemy this time is not a demon lord, either, but omnipresent from the era of mythology 5000 years ago it.”
“Iya.” The mention of the era is different, but the intent of the creature remains the same, Leiava.
“I will tell the other village officials, after that we will prepare as many elf troops as possible who can fight to participate in this battle.”
“Ya, thank you very much.”
“Ari, correctly’ what I said earlier.”
“Ya.”
“So she's the wife you talked about back then, she does look pretty and charming. You seem so lucky to have such a great husband.”
“You're over-complaining, but he's great. I admire him, besides he is the most precious person to me.”
“I understand that feeling.”
“Village chief, the demons retreat.” (??) One of the young elves came here. “Do they plan something?”
“Please, for a while I can guarantee they won't attack this place again.”
“You, the man who helped us back then. Thank you very much, for your help at that time we can survive.”
“Yes, no problem. Iona, let's go back.”
“Good.” We have already obtained the approval of the entire race alliance, and the rest is just preparing the plan carefully.
