Chapter 260 Intermission Human Realms King ~~ Recovery and Trepidation ~~ (1/2)

The festival was held by the pinnacle of the Demon Realm, the Six Kings…… Information about the Six Kings Festival, along with the invitations, quickly spread around the words. especially among the nobles and wealthy merchants.

An invitation from the Six Kings. It could already be described as a kind of status, especially for those who held a high-ranking invitation, as they could even improve the status of the recipient.

Hence, many nobles and wealthy merchants were very busy these days.

And the royalty was no exception for this.

In a room in the royal palace of the Symphonia Kingdom, Ryze, the current King of Symphonia, held an envelope in his hand with a very tense expression on his face. Grasping a paper knife as if he was praying to someone, his shaking hands cut the seal off the envelope.

Although Ryze had reconciled with Kaito, he still didn’t know how the Six Kings currently evaluated him.

Hence, he was still somewhat holding inferior thoughts while within his own royal palace, and this invitation was a chance for him to restore his honor, but at the same time, this invitation could also be a one-way ticket to hell.

If he didn’t receive at least an invitation from the Underworld King and the World King, his position within the royal castle would become increasingly difficult.

Praying that he would somehow be ranked bronze or higher, Ryze took out the invitation…… and let out a sigh of relief so loud that everyone around him could have heard him,

The invitation that Ryze received is glimmering with a beautiful golden hue…… that means that he has a Gold rank, and that means that his honor as a King is safe.

No, on the contrary, having this Gold rank allows him to join the party on the final day, which was more than enough to restore his honor.

When Ryze opened the invitation, it listed the names of the Underworld King, Death King, World King, and the Phantasmal King, and noted that he had received an invitation from four of the Six Kings.

Ryze is relieved to have received an invitation from the Underworld King, which was one of his biggest concerns, but soon afterwards, he found that there’s something else in the envelope…… a message card.

[Hmm? This is……]

The message only had the words “I heard you gave Kaito some advice. Thank you” written in it in clean handwriting, and at the bottom of the note, it was signed with the name of the Death King, Isis Remnant.

It was actually something that Ryze himself didn’t know, but his advice to Kaito was well known, as Kaito himself had told Kuromueina and Isis that he was grateful to Ryze.

And for the girls, it was a fine play on his part that even warrants a standing ovation, and thus, his reputation had explosively risen.

He’s currently already on the level where if he sends out an invitation to Kuromueina for an evening party and other events, Kuromueina will also participate.

Granted, Ryze only seriously advised Kaito because he thought Kaito was consulting about his sister, Lilia, and achieving this result wasn’t his intention at all but…… No, you could say that it was exactly because he thought that it was for his sister, and that must be why he was able to give advice that isn’t for his own interest at all.

Anyway, King Ryze of Symphonia was able to successfully recover his evaluation from the eyes of the Six Kings.

In the royal castle of the Archlesia Empire, Emperor Chris, who had received her invitation just like Ryze, opened the envelope with a serious expression on her face,

[……Oya? Gold rank huh…… I thought I would have a Silver rank……]

Seeing that the rank of her invitation wasn’t quite what she expected, Chris tilted her head, but receiving a rank higher than she expected is of no inconvenience and actually something that she should be grateful about, so she just opened her invitation.

Thereupon, she saw the names of the Underworld King, Dragon King, War King and the Phantasmal King written there, and Chris tilted her head again.

[……Phantasmal King-sama? Hmmm? I think I’ve barely spoken to Phantasmal King-sama though……]

As for the other members of the Six Kings that had sent her invitation, Chris had somewhat expected them.

Chris is one of “Kuromueina’s baby birds” so she expected Kuromueina’s invitation. The Archlesia Empire has a close relationship with the Dragon King, Magnawell, so she also expected his invitation. Chris also had a certain amount of familiarity with one of the Six Kings, so she was thinking that she may receive Megiddo’s invitation…… So far, the invitation came from the people Chris was supposed to have interacted with.

However, she didn’t understand why the name of the Phantasmal King, No Face was also written there. Of course, she has seen her at the Festival of Heroes and some other events, but she rarely had a direct conversation with that mysterious being.

That’s also the same case for the World King, Lillywood.
