A Certain Perplexed Princess
“This is……”
I leaked out a voice of admiration the moment i see it.
A magnificent wall.
It’s a splendid wall that could be called an impregnable fortress.
It would be depressing to deal with this if an invasion to the Devil Continent is decided.
However, there is a clear entrance to this wall.
There is a large and long staircase in front, as if luring a prey into a trap.
“Vice-captain, what is your opinion on this?”
“Well, if we go the normal way, we should send a scout team first, and as soon as safety is confirmed, we march carefully.”
It’s certainly a valid opinion. But if, the Demon Lord noticed this situation, it won’t be a good idea.
First, the Demon Lord may get offended, and start attacking.
In that situation, the scout team’s life will be forfeited. In addition, there will be no room to spare and negotiation will be impossible. If that happens, the situation will move to an invasion to the Demon Continent at once, and the kingdom will starve.
Next, if the Demon Lord offer a negotiation, it will be useless if i am not present. If done poorly, the chance of negotiation will be lost. And if that happen, the situation will be as described above.
And finally, taking too much time here will not be good. If the 13th Demon Lord collude with the 11th Demon Lord, the True Continent will be suddenly pushed to the brink of death. The existence of this wall alone already made an invasion to the Demon Continent practically hopeless. And if a base for retreat and supply is built here, it will be as easy as twisting a baby’s arm to defeat our country.
I informed the Vice-captain that all units is to proceed carefully. The Vice-captain made a bitter smile and start giving instructions to each group leader.
This Vice-captain, who has an appearance of a crude rough man, is troubled by my over protection.
I am trying to put them near me, and keep them away for danger. Of course, I’m also a commander now. I don’t intend to jump into the battlefield , but I have lived through dangerous situation one or twice now, so it doesn’t really bother me.
*Yeah, dunno man, this paragraph suck.
It’s my mother’s fault.
I know that in Amuhamura Kingdom, my mother is highly respected.
But in reality, my mother simply fell in love with His Majesty. In fact, my mother did not know that her favorite person is actually His Majesty the King. All she told me, is that he is a rich soldier.
My impression on my mother is that, love really do blind people, that’s all.
Fufufu. My mother who is known as a Holy mother in the country, speak fondly of her loved ones when she wake up, when she is working, when she goes to sleep, and even when she falls ill. The people will disillusioned about it.
*Yeah, this paragraph suck too.
“Let’s go, start marching!”
I am not good at expressing my thoughts. I said it myself, so there’s no doubt about it.
Even now, there are no one who remember the Holy mother scandal, maybe even not noticing it.
*Still dunno man.
The march proceeded without any interruption. Even though the number of people was not small, we managed to reach the stair in one go.
However, the moment I stepped on the stair, something surprised me.
“What happened!?”
The Vice-captain immediately replied to my raised voice.
“I’m not sure! Captain! There’s no saying of what will happen! You should withdraw now!”
“That’s stupid! How can I withdraw before anything happens?”
That’s right, nothing happened yet.
“B-but!”
However, I understand about Vice-captain’s concern.
After all, “Demon King’s Blood Tears” cold air, suddenly disappeared.
It’s not hot, nor it’s cold. If I have to say, it’s the right temperature.
“………Nothing………is happening?”
The Vice-captain quietly nodded at my mutter as I confirm the situation.
Looking back, some of the knights looked at us with confused expression.
As a test, let’s try getting out of the stair again.
Cold.
It seems that, the inside of this walls is kept at constant temperature.
“………”
There’s no doubt that this is an amazing technology. However, the question is that why they prepared such a wasteful facility here.
This staircase, this wall, what a really interesting Demon Lord.
At this time, I noticed that I started to get interested in the Demon Lord.
Well, I was originally interested in him already. However, this time it is a different kind of interest, something that i purely wanted to know.
A voice echoed as I carefully walked the stairs and entered the inside of the wall.
“Aaa, test, test. It’s a fine weather today. Red pajamakipamamaaomamama.
Good afternoon everybody, Demon Lord Amduuucias-desu.”
It wasn’t so nice today, and the word that followed has no meaning, but the problem is not there.
It’s the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord reached out to us. This is an opportunity to negotiate that i was hoping for. I immediately looked around, but there’s no one nearby.
Apparently, a black object in front of me is speaking. This is also an amazing technology. With it, information could be exchanged quickly and accurately without the need of a messenger.
The Demon Lord continued to talk while I am examining the black object, thinking what can be done as a soldier.
[Welcome to my dungeon.
I’m sorry for all of you that come all the way over here, but currently there is no escape route in this dungeon. Once you enter, it will be impossible to escape. I will not be able to guarantee the lives of everyone.
Invasion is not recommended. Please go home.]
Did he think that I am an idiot?
How he worded it is silly, and the content is almost provocative.
He said it rudely and disrespectfully. And if we are impatient, we will get angry and stormed inside.
However, it seems that this Demon Lord is seriously trying to treat me politely.
I seems to be correct, since i heard the talk the person is having to someone who seems to be in his control.
“I’m touched by your polite greeting and advice”
If that is the case, we should do it properly.
I am speaking against a Demon Lord. Even though he is an enemy, I will smear mud to His Majesty’s face if I act rudely.
So I present myself as what I usually do.
“I am the Knight Commander of the Amuhamura Kingdom, Trisha Lily Amuhamura.
As the name suggest, i am a royalty from the Amuhamura Kingdom.
This time, we came as a messenger to Your Majesty Amducias, the 13th Demon Lord. I beg in earnest, may you show yourself before us?”
[Eh!? A princess!?]
Ah.
*Holy, she did the same thing as Amduscias.
It seems like, this is the Demon Lord’s original personality. I heard an ironic voice of the person that i heard earlier, saying [Your disguise is immediately peeled off, huh].
But the owner of this voice is speaking to the Demon Lord without any fear. A trusted retainer, or maybe it’s his partner.
Nn?
For some reason, the reaction from the Demon Lord side disappeared.
Am I being warned about my position?
“Um…..?”
Let’s just call out for the time being.
“Nn. I was just consulting with my friend. If there are no inconvenience at your side, i would like to summon you here.
For myself to go over there, is as expected, will be really careless of me”
A lie. This Demon Lord lied just now!
Because there’s no voice coming out from here, I thought that he broke off the communication, even thought we haven’t talked about much thing yet.
*Dunno bout’ this one too.
I heard the voice of Vice-Captain that is over there.
“It’s too dangerous. I will substitute for Captain to go there.”
“That can’t be done. This negotiation is important for the fate of our country. It’s not that I am not trusting you, but I should go as a member of the royal family.”
“But….!”
“It’s alright. In case of emergency, I’ll show you that I’ll escape somehow.”
The Vice-captain stops speaking, but he has an expression of agony, as if he just bitten a bug.
After giving the Vice-captain a bitter smile, i turned back to the black object.
“………Understood.
However, if I did not return, please understand that not only my country, but the whole true continent, will be Your Majesty’s enemy.”
For the time being, I’ll add a threatening tone on my words, to at least have a layer of protection.
However that Demon lord, spoke back at me and the Vice-captain in a light tone.
[There’s no need to worry. I have no intention to harm you, and if possible, I would like to have a friendly relationship.]
What a joke.
Having a friendly relationship?
Between humans and demons?
It’s impossible. In my knowledge, there has never been a friendly relationship between humans and demon.
The demons invaded the True Continent, and enslaved the humans,
On the other hand, the humans counterattacked, the remaining demons were enslaved, and then abused as physical labor and experiments. The relationship between humans and demon has become like this, after warring again each other repeatedly.
But, I wonder why.
I feel like with this Demon Lord, we can build a good relationship with each other, with the whole human race. That’s what i feel.
And then, I was surrounded by dazzling light all of sudden, and my vision changed completely.
A pure white room.
pale light.
And-
“Trisha-san, welcome. I’m Amduucias-desu.”
At this time, I realized, that I have my mother’s blood after all.
I, to the Demon lord-
-has fell in love.
