「…the things that Akira and I see using the『Eye of the World』are different, so I don’t know what Akira saw or is worrying about. But, Akira, who responds the same way towards an opponent who hides their strength just like that girl, would be in danger.」

Certainly, that’s true.

Now that I know her actual strength, if Latisneil did turn violent, I may not be able to stop her.

Kurou was here, so it might work out somehow, but if he weren’t here, would I be able to stop that woman like I thought I could?

「…I wish I didn’t agree to it.」

When I muttered this, Amelia shook her head.

「What Akira did was right. At that time, if Akira had not offered to do so, she might have actually turned violent. However, what I wanted to say was that you have the power to accurately judge the ability of an opponent, so you should use it.」

Affection was gently illuminated, within Amelia’s red eyes.

Just like a mother. 

「Got it. From now on, I will properly check the statuses of the people I meet for the first time.」

When I obediently said this, Amelia nodded and patted my head.

There was a difference in our heights, so she was standing on her tiptoes while trying to maintain her balance, but it was extremely adorable. 

『…cough…Master-dono, Miss Amelia, can I talk to you for a moment?』

Clearing his throat, Yoru entered their two-person world.

He jumped up onto my shoulder without a run-up.

Come to think of it, he did say that he would give an explanation on Latisneil afterwards.

「Well, that hooded demon, who is she? I think there should only be a few people whom Yoru would use polite speech with.」

Yoru nodded, and started speaking as he threw a glance in Latisneil’s direction.

『She, Latisneil-sama is…putting it bluntly, demon king-sama’s daughter.』

Fuu–n…I was about to nod, and then I stopped.

What did he just say??

The demon king’s daughter?

That?? 

「…status-wise, I can accept it, but she looks nothing like it.」

I agreed with Amelia’s honest opinion.

Perhaps it was because I could barely sense her magic power, or maybe it’s because her words and behavior were the picture of naivete, but I would not have thought that she was the demon king’s daughter.

…it was unexpected that he even had a daughter.

『Maa, Latisneil-sama and demon king-sama do not see eye to eye, and often argue. They fought this time as well and she probably ran away from home. And, …Latisneil-sama does not have the personality befitting the demon king’s daughter.

He did not explicitly state that it would make sense right away, but I knew right away that Latisneil was less demon-like than I thought.

Or rather, was crossing over a continent within the scope of ‘running away from home’? 

Were the levels of the demons regarding those things different as well? 

『For the time being, it would be fine so long as you refrain from lying or the use of discriminatory words in front of Latisneil-sama. She hates those two things in particular』

Come to think of it, earlier, she was screaming that discrimination was wrong or something. 

…otousan said that discrimination was wrong or something like that.

Otousan, was she referring to the demon king?

…in these few minutes, my impression regarding the demon king seems to have completely changed.

It was completely different from his image.

Somewhat dumbfounded, I nodded.

「I got it. I’ll tell Kyousuke and the others too.」

『Please, Master-dono. I will stay with Miss Amelia. Let them know so that they don’t offend Latisneil-sama.』

Yoru said this, and jumped from my shoulder to Amelia’s.

He escaped from Latisneil, huh.

Before I knew it, the pageant had started.

It seems that Amelia, Latisneil, and the girls in the hero’s party were the last entrants, so they were also the last ones to be called.

I absentmindedly looked up at the stage while taking care of Latisneil standing next to me, who was being noisy with her kyaa kyaa.

The participants consisted of only beastmen and humans, but those gathered were all fairly passable beauties.

Perhaps it was because I saw Amelia’s beautiful face every day, but the other contestants seemed average in comparison, and they seemed very competitive.

Maa, Amelia was so beautiful that she had a huge lead over the others though.

…no, there was one other person whose face I haven’t seen.

「…come to think of it, are you not going to take off your hood?」

When I asked this while keeping my gaze steady, Laitsneil thought about it, and then narrowed her violet eyes.

「Look, since it’s a large stage, I want to surprise everyone! If I let people see my face in the beginning, wouldn’t it be obvious that I’m going to win?」

In other words, it seems that she had confidence in her face.

The fact that she had seen Amelia’s face and could still say such a thing meant that either Latisneil was also a spectacular beauty, or she was just extremely confident. 

If it’s this person, I’m afraid that it may be the latter.

However, if it’s the former, then I certainly want to see it.

「What, what? Oniisan, are you interested in me?? Have you come to like me more than that elven princess?」

Don’t get cocky, I pushed the grinning Latisneil. 

Even if there were someone more beautiful than Amelia in this world, I don’t like Amelia just because of her face, so there was no way I would like Latisneil.

「Tsk, your love is so dazzling. You did well to be able to endure it up until now, Yoru-kun.」

Latisneil unnaturally clicked her tongue, and I gave a wry smile.
