Chapter 147 – Chapter 27: Queen #4
“Shutra, be honest. What have you done to my child? These days, she only talks about you when she opens her mouth. It isn’t exactly words but through her letters.”
“Huh?”
In-gong didn’t know what to make of this moment.
He heard two voices speaking at the same time from different places.
“Omamama?!”
“Oh, that sounds like my child.”
The first was Felicia, while the second came from Elaine.
Elaine’s sudden remark caused Caitlin’s eyes to widen.
“Mama? Ah, no. Mother?”
Elaine laughed like the whole situation was amusing. She looked identical to Caitlin, but her personality was completely different. Sylvia didn’t pay attention to Felicia and continued speaking,
“Just two days ago, I got a letter from Felicia. It is one of the reasons why I came here today.”
“Omamama!”
Felicia almost screamed, but Sylvia didn’t listen. She pulled out a letter from a small box she had prepared in advance.
“I have received a few letters, but this one is especially impressive.”
“Oma… hup hup!”
Sylvia was a much more skilled magician than Felicia, and she silenced Felicia’s mouth instantly with a spell. Then she opened the letter.
“Darker than darkness, the deep night was only filled with despair. Silvan seemed like he was going to stop breathing at any moment, and I had fallen to fear. But Omamama, that is when Shutra appeared. It was so cool seeing him appear with a dark blue cloak and a glowing white light. He had led a great army while riding on a white shield and moving faster than the wind, but this time, he was even greater than that. Ah, I can still see it if I close my eyes. I felt relieved just seeing Shutra’s back. It felt like I had found the light in the darkness. Now, I can live, and Silvan can live… Ah, tears came unknowingly to my eyes. I can feel the joy bursting in my heart.”
“Hup hup! Hup!”
Felicia’s face reddened as she struggled to speak.
It seemed like she had truly written the letter a few days ago. The dark elves and lycanthropes were species with queens, so exchanging letters wasn’t difficult since they had transportation formations linked directly to the Demon King’s Palace.
Even Sylvia blushed slightly as she read the letter. Elaine spoke happily as Sylvia folded up the letter,
“Felicia is too adorable. By the way, I also have one to read.”
“Mother?”
Caitlin stood up and shouted. Then Elaine commanded Caitlin with strict eyes,
“Caitlin, sit.”
Caitlin sat down reflexively. She was like a trained puppy. Although Caitlin had a nauseated expression, she didn’t moan or protest. Elaine nodded with a satisfied expression and pulled out a blue stone.
“This is a voice letter Caitlin gave me a while ago.”
Caitlyn had sent it when she left the fourth base to see Felicia off. As Elaine inserted magic power into the stone, Caitlin closed her eyes tightly. Caitlin’s excited voice flowed out from the magic stone.
“Amazing! Amazing! Really amazing! He is so great and amazing that he took down the barbarian king! Shutra might even be stronger than Oppa. No, he is going to be stronger. His strength is clear. Isn’t it really amazing? Amazing!”
As expected, it was filled with the word ‘amazing.’ She ran out of breath and the sound of breathing was heard. Then she said in a voice filled with joy, pride and admiration,
“Shutra is amazing.”
He could imagine Caitlin’s bright and sunny face easily.
‘Master, I admit it. The Amazing Princess is really amazing. She seems a little different to me. Well, I don’t think we should be the same.’
Green Wind muttered into In-gong’s ear, and he stayed silent. It was normal, but he was strangely embarrassed today. Moreover, there was Felicia’s letter. Felicia had written the letter after being on the verge of death. Her expression looked like she was going to start crying at any moment. In-gong wasn’t much different. His expression didn’t change, but his face was red. Apart from the both of them, Caitlin was also embarrassed. She felt a sense of shame after hearing her voice through the magic stone.
Elaine and Sylvia just laughed gracefully. Carack and the other aides also had to put a lot of effort into suppressing their laughter. Delia was pinching her thigh, while Seira and Sepira were biting their lips with their eyes tightly closed.
Silvan was the only one among the children of the demon king who wasn’t embarrassed. He smiled while looking at In-gong with envious eyes.
‘Huu, hu. Relax.’
In-gong tried to decrease the blood flow in his face as he swallowed his tea. It was slightly helpful in recovering his calm.
Sylvia spoke again,
“It’s a joke. I don’t intend to criticize you, but I want to thank you sincerely.”
