Chapter 122 – Chapter 122 Diana Springs, Founder of the Dark Elves Lucy Springs, the Hope of the High Elves (13)
Homunculus.
An artificial human created by the Empire’s alchemy.
Although he looks the same as a human, his strength is several times stronger than that of a human, and sleeping for only 3 hours is equivalent to 8 hours of normal sleep.
In the early days of development, he served as a worker for the prosperity of the empire, and is currently active as an elite soldier guarding the borders of the empire.
As a joke, there is a saying that the current empire is an empire created by artificial humans.
But they are treated worse than slaves. Since the androids cannot attack the citizens of the empire, they cannot be used as security officials…….
This was the document about the homunculus I had seen.
In a way, he is a being similar to the robot in the original world.
That was the homunculus.
The princess is a homunculus.
“Homunculus?”
“You seem to know. This seal.”
“Weren’t you human?”
“I’m sorry. A homunculus is also a human?”
“To think that the imperial princess is an artificial human…….”
It was shocking.
No matter how much the empire is said to be a country crazy about alchemy, to make a princess out of an artificial human.
“You look very surprised. It can be. What father in the world would turn his daughter into an artificial human? Yes?”
“…….”
The princess, who revealed that she was an artificial human, had a rather relieved face.
“If you don’t believe me, you can try it. If you know this seal, you probably don’t know how to tell if it’s real or fake.”
Of course I know.
The verification method was simple.
Sending mana to see the reaction.
Prove that the seal is real by generating strong winds when mana is shed.
I read that it was used as a means to catch runaway androids.
I put my hand on the inside of the princess’s tattooed thigh.
Wheein!
As soon as Magi was raised, a strong wind blew.
The seal reacted instantly, proving that she was her cyborg.
“How about it?”
“It was real.”
“Now there is one more person who knows this fact, no existence.”
“Only you and the emperor would have known, who else?”
“There is none other than you, the demon lord.”
“Does this mean that all alchemists who know this information are dead?”
“It was an unfortunate accident. Of course, it was all at the direction of Obama.”
The princess pretended to shed tears.
“Why are you revealing this fact?”
“It’s for a simple reason. The groundwork to build trust. I need you enough to reveal my secret.”
“What do you want?”
“I need your strength.”
“My strength?”
“Yes. Your strength.”
She is the princess of the empire
Even if she was a homunculus, no one would know that she was an artificial human, and there would be no task within the empire that the princess could not solve.
Who can stop her princess?
‘There’s only one.’
The princess knows that she is her homunculus, and she is the only ‘human’ with a higher status than her.
“Are you the emperor?”
“You’re also quick-witted.”
“There is only one person you can use me for.”
“Right. Unique. Because Obama is the best for everyone.”
Princess Iliad, who smiled lightly, looked at me and said.
Her fingers gently covered the back of my hand.
As if to seduce me, her fingers that touched me gradually moved upward.
“Please kill Obama.”
“You mean the Emperor of the Empire?”
“Yes.”
“Is it greed for the throne?”
“…… I can’t tell you that.”
“Can’t you tell me why? It must have been a stronger reason than the princess being a homunculus.”
“Right.”
“…….”
I didn’t bother asking.
More important than her reasons were the gains I would get from helping her.
“I can’t tell you right now, but I’ll let you know when things progress and I feel confident. The reason why you want to kill the emperor, not anyone else.”
“You chose me because you are a homunculus? “
“Right. I cannot lay my hands on the citizens of the Empire. Because the homunculus cannot be hostile to the subjects of the empire. Same goes for Obama. The emperor of the empire is……. Because he symbolizes the empire.”
The princess of Iliad, who lifted her skirt with her free hand and gently brushed away her brand on the inside of her own thigh, smiled self-deprecatingly.
“So help me. I’ll give you anything in return. If you ask for all the lands of the Empire, I can give it to you. It’s land I don’t need anyway.”
“I will sacrifice the empire to kill the emperor. That’s an impressive proposal.”
I saw Princess Iliad.
I could see the anger boiling in the self-deprecating smile.
It was the primal anger she had with her Emperor.
I don’t know where that anger came from, but it doesn’t matter.
I was just taking advantage of her.
It’s the same for her
We’re here to take advantage of each other.
The princess to kill the emperor.
I want to take over the empire.
‘If the emperor, who is the center of the empire, dies, it is certain that he will self-destruct himself.’
It wasn’t a bad suggestion.
And in the end, if she opens up to the nobles that she was a homunculus.
The imperial aristocrats’ anger will be directed at the princess, not me.
I can occupy the empire relatively comfortably, and the princess won’t care about such public opinion anyway.
It was good for everyone.
“I think it would be possible for the demon king. Of course I will help too. I can give you inside information right now.”
“Inside information……. Not bad.”
If you can know the enemy’s movements in advance, what could be better?
However, it was important to keep in mind that information is a double-edged sword.
How you use it is important.
Is it because my expression is lukewarm?
“I will do anything to kill Obama.”
The princess’ hand gradually went to a secret place.
“If you want my body, I will give it to you right away. The Demon King likes to hug women, right? I heard rumors that he gained his power by raping women.”
With her free hand, she undid the straps that held her dress together.
Her breastbone was exposed, and her white skin caught the eye.
“I don’t know because I don’t have experience with men, but I don’t think I have a bad appearance. There were quite a few male aristocrats who adored me. So…….”
Her hand touched my private places.
“If you want, I will give it to you. My everything.”
I looked at the princess without a word.
Her princess willing to sell her own body with her confidence.
I could see how desperate she was to kill her emperor.
You think I’m the only one who can kill the Emperor.
Unfortunately for her.
“Is that all?”
“Yes?”
“You’re not cool.”
“What is that?”
“It means I have no will to commit. Even if you take off your dress and dance naked here, I don’t think you will stand.”
“…….”
She didn’t look like a woman who would undress herself.
I also have my own aesthetics.
“It’s difficult to be moodless like this.”
Sex in an ambiguous way that doesn’t really want me or resist me just makes me lose interest.
“If you want to be violated by me, prove your worth. Worth four years for me.”
“…… That’s cheeky.”
“The Demon King is like that.”
“You mean you won’t accept my offer? Are you even trying to avoid war with the Empire?”
I shook my head.
“I will go to war with the Empire. But the emperor will be spared. I have no intention of accepting your request.”
The princess shut her mouth.
“If you want to kill the emperor, show your worth before I swallow the whole empire. Worth enough to make me want to eat it.”
“It hurts my self-esteem. A male who dares to say that I am not attractive.”
The princess of Iliad, who tightened her chin and strengthened her will, glared at me.
“Like. That offer, I accept. The shit you said. I want to make it Promise me instead.”
“Okay. If I get a taste for it, and if I eat it for four years, I’ll kill the emperor as I please.”
There was nothing I couldn’t do.
Give and take is a term that can be used in any world.
“Like. It wasn’t immediately agreed upon, but I was still satisfied. I honestly didn’t think they would accept it. I’ll give you all the inside information, the map of the empire, and the information on the types of troops involved. After all, you have to win to be able to kill Obama.”
I asked as I saw Princess Iliad getting up from her seat.
“I only ask you one thing.”
“Please speak.”
“Are you not mindful of the guilt you would gain from betraying the Empire that much?”
“…….”
The princess who shut her mouth for a moment looked at me.
“How are you? I’m no longer even human. They are just puppets rejected by them. In a way, it’s not that different from you, Demon Lord.”
The eyes that look at me smile.
“That’s why I chose you. Because he resembles me.”
After her words, the princess went outside.
She disappeared as if she had never been here in the first place.
A princess who was prepared to sell her empire to kill her own father.
“You’re crazy.”
However, I couldn’t find a better offer than this.
I wondered why she was so desperate for her emperor’s death, but maybe she will find out someday.
It is natural information that can be obtained when trust is established between each other, so it was necessary to focus on the immediate task first.
“What is urgent right now is the world balance.”
I saw a huge tree in the distance.
I don’t know if Frey prepared well.
I returned to the capital of the World Troubles.
***
“All preparations are complete.”
“It ended sooner than I thought.”
Within a week, Frey came to me saying he was ready to corrupt the World Tree.
“It’s easy. I didn’t spend a day or two making reagents. And reagents that can destroy something as simple as the world tree come out sooner than you think. It’s just that I always failed because I lacked that power.”
A significant amount of blood was drawn to make reagents that would corrupt the World Tree.
Frey shook the vial of his blood mixed with his own.
2 liters was a reasonable amount.
2 liters a week
If it was a normal person, it would have died from excessive blood loss.
“Pour this on the ground where the World Tree is. Then the fountain of life will also naturally corrupt.”
“It’s simpler than I thought.”
“I told you. Is it simple?”
Frey smirked, stretching her shoulders.
It was quite cute to see him so proud of his small stature.
“No!”
Lucy, who saw this, fought back and resisted.
In the meantime, she held onto Frey’s ankles with her trembling arms, maintaining her sanity even as she was raped by me.
“What. This dirty elf bitch.”
“Kyaaak!”
“If you have tasted the devil’s cock to your heart’s content while I’m suffering from bleeding, don’t disturb me. Only when this is over can I get stuck in the devil’s cock.”
“Ugh!”
Lucy, kicked by Frey, grabbed her foot.
“No, please don’t……. No please don’t Maou-sama, please only the world tree……. She is like our mother. So no world tree, yo…….”
Tears fell from her big eyes.
Diana’s face contorted as she looked at Lucy.
“Lucy…….”
Again and again.
Diana approached Lucy who burst into her weeping.
“How can a child…….”
“Sister, Diana, you know. The meaning the world tree brings to us.”
“Know. Know all too well As you said, the world tree was like our mother.”
“Your sister knows too. Are you back? The power of the world tree brings me back…….”
Damn!
Lucy’s face turned.
Diana’s hand slapped her cheek hard.
“Uh, sister?”
“You still haven’t come to your senses. Didn’t I tell you last time? The world tree is our mother, so we should tell her as well.”
Diana’s eyes were full of rage as she glared at Lucy.
She was getting angry at her brother for her genuinely foolish comments.
“The World Tree will now become a shelter for not only elves, but dark elves and wandering ghosts. It’s not the exclusive property of elves who have nothing but stubbornness. So admit it. You also. Please do not uselessly resist.”
“Sister…….”
Lucy looked up blankly at her Diana, stroking her own cheek with her trembling hand.
She couldn’t close her gaping mouth as she was stunned.
I approached the World Tree ignoring Lucy.
“Now is the time.”
She was given a vial containing a blood reagent from Frey.
Wood deok!
When she broke the bottle in her hand, the reagent seeped into the ground.
It’s scary that the medicine containing the tainted power permeates the ground.
Sssss.
The air flow began to change.
“No, no, no!”
I left behind Lucy’s screams and looked at the World Tree.
Show me
How long can this tree pretending to be lofty survive?
