Chapter 117 - Volume 7 (1/2)

Volume 7, Chapter 3: I Became a Saint Again, Part 3, Part 2

We finally reached our meeting place after heading through a considerably long white passage. I was a little tired.

When the knights opened the door, I saw the figure of the king sitting on the throne in the back of the great hall.

“Ooh, are these the heroes at last?”

The King of Sail had solidly-built physique, and looked at us from his seat, and spoke far too loudly.

The castle’s size felt somewhat similar to that of the Holy Kingdom (Tariterudo)? It was a similar castle, but the people surrounding the king who looked rather minister-like were rather extravagant-looking.

“You insects, in front of His Majesty the King, you dare not kneel?”

An old man next to the king who was wearing the most pompous armor out of everyone stood up, and the four of them started to kneel, but I stopped them with a gesture.

“Oh? Why, though?”

“You bastard!”

Why is that…… I feel he’s got the same smell as that knight that got beaten up just a while ago. When I saw that knight’s face turn green, I wondered if he would be calling for reinforcements. ……Aah, now that I look at it, their faces look similar too.

“Good, good, unlike the usual visitors from [Terra], it seems we have a princess from another world. Indeed, you’re very young yet beautiful……”

The King of Sail stopped the old knight as he looked at me, a broad grin on his face.

Aah, I see. It was rare for there to be nobles. A person who only based impressions on the reputation, and not on the age or sex.

“This is the first time we’ve met, King Sail. I am Yurushia Ra Von Verusenia. I am the granddaughter of the King, but since I’m actually the daughter of a Duke, it’s a little embarrassing to be called [Princess].”

“I hear that you’re also in line to succeed the throne, too. Although we conducted the summoning to save our world, I would like to hear the story of your world. I welcome you as a guest to our castle.”

“What about me…?”

“Nn? Your aides will also be treated similarly.”

“Then, what about them?”

When I turned to look at them, everyone present turned their eyes towards the original protagonist characters who were summoned to this place, and they trembled under the combined gazes of everyone.

“……Oh? These were the people summoned from Terra, huh. In that case, then, I welcome you all if there are any of you who have the capacity to be a [Hero].”

King Sail spoke haughtily, waving his hand as he finished speaking, and several civil-official-like people were approaching the four.

“Geas, Onzada-kun.”

[Gau] […(Kokun)]

This time, I told my attendants to remain spectators as much as possible. The two of them, who were soft toys, jumped out at that moment and blocked the way of the civil officials.

“Princess Yurushia…… what do you mean by this?”

King Sail’s smile disappeared from his face. What do I mean?

“You were still in the midst of telling me, no? So, what are you going to do if they don’t have this capacity?”

“That’s not something for Princess to worry about. Take them away.”

At King Sail’s words, one of the civil officials grabbed the arms of Touka.

“Wait a minute, it hurts-”

“Oi, what are you trying to do?”

“Resist a little.”

I knew that ‘people from another world’ that had just come to this world had little power. In order for them to take away the girls, the soldiers aimed their weapons at the boys who tried to get in their way.

“You bastard! Come here at once. That’s His Majesty’s order…*guho*”

Onzada-kun struck the civil official mid sentence and knocked him flying. No, I told him to only match his ability to their power.

“……Na-”

As someone muttered out, the surroundings that had gone quiet suddenly burst out in an uproar.

“What are you doing, you bastard!”

“Knights, arrest them!”

“Come quietly and do not resist!”

I had a feeling that more than half of the country was like this.

But I guess it can’t be helped now that things have come to this. Neither these people nor King Sail were problems, the only person who could do something would be the [Hero] Kyoji.

“Acid Cloud”

Without a pre-cast aria, something like a fog cloud struck the four of them who had been summoned, but not me.
