Side Story 6 (1/2)
hello guys, it’s Estelion The second volu out soon To be honest, given howAt Randoh to support the author (you could chop off most of my hand an I could still count the number of people who sent me a photo), I wasn’t sure if I even wanted to finish the last few short stories…
But hey,release of Book of God After I finish the last two side stories in Book of God, I’ll get around to translating the holiday specials that they wrote as well
Side Story 6 – A Certain De
At present there were four girls living in the Black Rose Mansion
A these four, Anri, Tena and Lili were per here temporarily
To begin with, there was no fixed date for the end of her journey, but she couldn’t continue it forever
She herself had placed the conditions for return as “obtaining some kind of merit”
And objectively speaking, she had already accomplished this
She had helped with the establish nation, and had deep bonds with its VIPs Additionally, this neighbouring nation shaved away land from the enemy nation, Fortera, and was constructed like a buffer Furthermore, trade with the Human Race that had been previously deeh this new nation
As a result, it could be said that the e she had received was natural
“You’re returning to your country?”
“Yeah, they’re starting to press me, you see”
At dinner, Leonora told Anri and the others about her motherland’s inquiries about whether she was ready to return
“It’s pretty sudden”
“No, that’s not really true They’ve iht it up before I had decided to leave it alone until they straight out said it, but as you’d expect, I probably can’t stay here er this time”
“I see…”
Because it was akin to Leonora ad herself that she still wanted to stay here, she flushed a little red with embarrassment
“So ill you be leaving, Leonora-san?”
“Let’s see I’ tomorrow”
“T-, Tomorrow, you say?”
“Yeah We’re pretty far from the Demon Race Territory after all”
Leonora’s reply had shocked Tena Certainly, this did seem quite sudden But as Leonora had said, it would take a number of days to the Demon Race Territory On top of that, it would take evenCastle Because of that, it made sense that she needed to depart as soon as possible
“And so, there’s so I want to ask… Won’t you come with me to visit the Demon Race Territory?”
“? Us?”
“Yeah I’hbouring country, and will be entertained as state guests”
At present, Anri had no official power in the Holy Anri Thearchy, but realistically considering her connections, it wasn’t necessarily wrong to call her a VIP
In the end, the truth was that Leonora was si a friend to her house
Leonora Ro’s Throne, she had always been friendless
The next day, Anri and Leonora visited the Evil God Temple
Leonora had planned on inviting Anri, Tena and Lili, but Lili was still too young, and the long journey would not be good for her Because of that, Tena was forced to stay back to look after her, and in the end only Anri would be going
“Hey, Anri… Are we seriously riding that thing?”
“It’s faster this way”
“Well, sure, but… but, you know…”
The two of them were here at the Evil God Temple to secure their means of transport
And so, she had chosen the fastestthere And she could find that method here
Still, when Leonora had heard, she frowned unhappily
When Anri told her that they would be getting there in a day, she carelessly thought it would be teleportation ic or the like That opti about it carefully, the divine race Anri aside, there was no way that the human Anri could have such a power
There weren’t any more appointed communications with her country, but it was still possible to send an eency co over whether or not she should do it, it was already too late
Having given up, Leonora sighed and muttered her faint hope
“It’d be good if this didn’t cause an uproar at home, but…”
De’s Castle
Deep within the De who reigned supreme within the Demon Race, and served as their supreme headquarters
Despite this, its security showed no signs of negligence
Many layers of large security nets protected the castle, and if an enemy army was ever spotted, the demonic forces were ready to intercept them at a moment’s notice
One day, an urgent e arrived at the castle from one the ‘net’ closest to the Human Race Territory
“Your Majesty! Urgent news!”
“How noisy What is going on?”
Eligor Ro, had been in his office when a guard suddenly stormed in
“Just a o, we received news froantuan dragon isa beeline towards this castle!”
“A dragon, you say?”
“Yes, Sire! An oon”
The report silenced the Dely fallen into silent recollection of sohts, a question frouard scattered them
“What shall we do, Sire?”
“If it is navigating the skies then our security nets will be of no use Have the troops gather in the direction of the dragon! Also, have Renarve, Vikuto, and Ijido come as well I shall also head there immediately”
Giving a passing glance at the guard who hurried away, the De his equipment
imouto
By the ti had appeared in the castle’s eastern quadrant, the guards had already finished preparing
Although they had suddenly been gathered here, the soldiers showed no signs of panic, and caled themselves Their actions reflected the preparedness and level of training of the Demon Race
And the ones who directly cos who served as the De’s close aides
“Vanguard, how goes the preparation of your shi+elds!”
“They are ready, Renarve-sama!”
“Mage Unit, I assume that all of you are here?”
“Yessir, everybody is present!”
Violent Gale Knight Renarve was co the frontline, whilst Bloodfrost General Vikuto was in charge of the backline On the other hand, Adaic to form a protective wall for the decoy frontline
“How is your wall co?”
“Yeah, I’m all done here”
Ijido answered Vikuto with a smirk
After that, the De
“Have you all finished preparing?”
“Why if it isn’t His Majesty Yes, we are all ready”
The De up towards the Eastern skies Renarve, Vikuto and Ijido too, had their eyes pinned to the skies
“By our fastest esti any time now”
“Honestly, on the day that our Princess is co back…”
“Speaking of which, she’s leaving for home today, isn’t she”
“Indeed We received her ht”
“Your Majesty? Is so the matter?”
“No, only, I feel as though I have forgotten so, and yet…”
Once again, the Deuard interrupted But once again, so was also the answer to his questions
“!? We have a visual!”
Renarve spotted the inco black mass and yelled to warned the troops
“Is that it? …Hm?”
“That’s… Don’t tell me…”
“That dragon!?”
“Hahh? The heck are you guys on about?”
Because the Deure, they ion that they had once battled in the dungeon known as the “Holy Land of the Evil God” And if they considered Leonora’s ho
On the other hand, only Ijido was panicked fro
“Renarve-sanal to attack!”
“W-, Wait a moment! You mustn’t attack!”
“Huh?”
“Riding that dragon is──”
The black shadow approached with incredible speed, and in no time transfor it easily crushed Ijido’s prided wall and landed with a boom
However, that confusion was met with Vikuto’s next line
“──Princess Leonora!”
As though responding to his shout, a girl on’s back
