Chapter 86: ~Training session.~ (2/2)
The bearded guy starts to laugh. “A princess? Maybe I should marry her to one of my sons. She could develop quite nicely.”
“Unfortunately there is no way to go back. We don't even know from where we summoned you. So there'll nobody come to get you.” The wizard looks down at me with a sad expression.
“That may be true if mom and dad were normal people, but they are gods. And you guys are all going to have a bad day when they show up!” I cross my arms in front of my chest and smirk at them.
“Ahahahaha!” The bearded guy got a laughing fit and can't stop any more.
The only one who looks concerned is the wizard. “So you are a god? That would explain why we needed such a huge amount of mana to summon you.”
I frown. “Not yet. I am still in training.”
The bearded guy is finally able to catch his breath again. “It's fine! You are funny. I'll marry you to my youngest son. Then I can always have you close to me as an entertainer.”
“Don't tell me that this idiot is something like the king?” I turn to the knight in front of me.
“Y... you can't call the king an idiot.” The knight's expression drops.
“I am the princess of Norfolk! When I say that someone is an idiot, then he is one! Or do you want to call me a liar?” I try to look imposing and stand up straighter.
The stupid blonde woman starts to say something when a cracking sound comes from behind me. I turn and look at the distorted space at the place where I had been summoned. The distortion widens for a moment and then disappears. Ascathon is standing there with his back to us.
He has beeping device in his hand and points it in different directions while not caring about his surroundings. Then he scratches his head and hits the device.
“~Daddy!~” I run towards him and hug his leg.
“Ah! Sera! How the hell did you get to another world? Did you awaken your powers?” He turns and bends down to take me under one arm. “Anyway, we don't have much time. Your mother gave me a tight time limit on finding you.”
“They summoned me to be their hero!” I point at the group of people.
Ascathon ignores them and the space around us distorts. Just at that moment the bearded guy calls out to us. “Stop! You can't abduct the wife of my son! We put too much effort into this summoning ceremony!”
The space distortion around us stops and everything returns to normal. We are still in the big hall with the group of strange people. Ascathon turns towards the group like seeing them for the first time.
“What did you say?”
“They summoned me as their hero. But that bearded idiot laughed at me and said that he would marry me to his son instead!” I give my father the short version.
Ascathon blinks while looking down at me, then he looks up at the group in front of us. “You want my daughter?”
“She called the king an idiot repeatedly! I think it would be more suitable to use her as a concubine.” The blonde woman blurts out.
Ascathon sets me down, so I can stand on my own. Then he takes a look at his wristwatch. “I have just half an hour before I have to report back with you.”
I realize what he is thinking about and give a helping hand. “~I think Mom would forgive you if you are ten minutes late. Especially if you explain the circumstances. And if you don't stop this for good there could always be other unexpected summonings.~”
“It might be just enough time to destroy this country.”
