Chapter 141 - Invitation and Demons [5] (2/2)

To be honest, I don’t want her to mention that too much.

(Well, it’s about time to settle this.)

Tenshi-sama’s fear of darkness should have been somewhat cleared.

If we dally too much, the guards outside will rush in soon. It’s time to get down to the issue at hand.

「By the way, Tenshi-sama, about that thing just now… How about we both let bygones be bygones?」

When I brought up a humble proposal,

「Y-You will forgive me? Even though I did such a horrible thing?」she whispered, staring blankly at me.

「Yes, I don’t mind.」

What Tenshi-sama attempted to do was actually quite nasty. However, her attempt resulted in failure. And there was no real harm done, so I’m not going to drag it out any longer.

「W-Well, then… You’re fine with letting bygones be bygones, right? You won’t do any more scary stuff, will you?」

「No, of course not.」I gently answered.

「T-Thank goodness.」Tenshi-sama exhaled in relief.

「Instead I’d like you to forgive me for retaliating against your guards, please?」

「Fine. It couldn’t be helped, so I’ll forgive you.」

Tenshi-sama, who judged that I was not a dangerous man, slowly stood up, and said so in a pompous manner.

「Ahaha. Thank you very much.」I bowed, feeling relieved in my chest..

(Thank goodness.)

This incident is pretty much the『biggest crisis of my life』to date.

To be honest, I’m not that good at the art of conversation. If anything, I’m a slightly poor talker.

(It’s a real miracle that I was able to settle the situation smoothly.)

When the problem with Tenshi-sama was solved, the door blocked by darkness was cut down by a slash.

「「「Tenshi-sama, are you all right?」」」

At the same time, three swordsmen with their soul dress in hand rushed in.

「What!?」

「Roddy, Ganso, Evans, Tris!?」

「Damn… Were you the one who killed them, bastard!?」

When they saw the four collapsed, bloodstained guards, they released a terrible bloodlust.

And then,

「Stand down. No matter how much you try, you can’t beat him. And I have already resolved the problem.」Tenshi-sama said, calming down the three guards who lost their temper.

It seems that she will keep her promise.

「More importantly, what’s going on out there?」she asked.

「T-That’s right. Actually, we received a message from the Holy Ronelia Empire! The video is projected on the LCD on the first floor, so please come this way!」One of the guards said so in a panic.

「A message from the Holy Ronelia Empire… That doesn’t sound good.」

The Holy Ronelia Empire is a ruthless superpower country that competes with the Five Great Powers and are also the backers of the Black Organization.

「Allen-sama, will you come with me?」

「Yes, of course!」

Thus, I went to the first floor of Ringard Palace with Tenshi-sama.
