Chapter 2 – Pandemonium # 2
To begin with, the mother, the Duchess, is the absolute monarch of this duchy.
If you call, you must go.
It is not a position that can be denied.
ㅡSue.
A simple note was written on the back of the map. It’s just, how come, that’s all. They told me to wash well and dress properly before having an audience with the most powerful person in the duchy.
The way to get there is to take the Wyvern Express from the fortress airfield. It seems that if you show the pass, it will be a breeze.
Looking at it, the name of the pass was another express pass. I don’t know, but I think it’s a very important thing. I get anxious because I think it’s important.
“Anyway, the deadline is until next week.”
Then I think we should leave today or tomorrow.
There are a total of four forts in the Duchy of Belacru, east, west, south, and north, and the capital’s palace is located in the center of the territory. I have to leave early because I have to go to the palace.
“But why?”
The duchess, a mother with many children, would have no reason to pinpoint me and ask me to meet me when I am stuck in this southern fortress… As they say, it seems to be a matter of my origin, but it is not certain.
“I’m anxious, my heart is beating so fast.”
Once I went into the shower to calm her anxiety.
Wash up and call the maids to get dressed. Then you can get directions and go to the airfield. If I have to go, I’ll just go. Because that’s where it should be.
“Clothes.”
Originally, I was the representative of this southern fortress, so if it was normal, no one would have listened to me. However, the story is different if the order of the mother, the Duchess, who is the absolute monarch of the duchy, has been issued.
Like that.
After washing up, changing into suitable clothes, I went out the door.
ㅡ Kikkiik.
The hallway immediately comes into view.
My room was room 445. The same doors were lined up on both sides, and demon maids were hanging out in the hallway.
“Tsk.”
“It’s dumb.”
The wandering maids see me and frown, those bitches. Every time I see these bastards, I want to beat them up. But to be honest, I’m weaker than those maids.
Then don’t be fooled
I don’t flirt with guys who are stronger than me.
But today is different.
“There. Maid. Let’s see me for a second.”
I called the guy right in front of me.
“…?”
The maid, tilting her head, approached me with a very puzzled expression.
“What’s going on?”
Overbearing voice.
“I need some neat clothes. Can you get some?”
“You want clothes?”
ㅡ Knock.
The maid’s head twisted.
And the vertical pupils of wide open eyes caught me. To be honest, I thought I was peeing because I was really fucking scared when I saw this right now.
This maid was not a horse maid, but a demon who was born in the real world of demons and lived in a demonic way. It was never something I could deal with as a Korean.
“What are you looking for yourself?”
And if the maid knew that too, she came out really hard and fell down.
“Is there a reason I’m going to pack a dumb kid’s clothes?”
“…”
Damn bitch, that’s really fucking scary.
I’m also aware, so I know roughly how things are going. Now, all the people living in this section of the fort are children my age.
We are served by those maids and taught by the Demon Teacher.
Of course.
Naturally, I was left out of most of my education, and the maids don’t even wait on me.
However, judging from the situation, if it were the way it was, I would have lived with the same treatment as my demon peers here. It’s just that I’m being bullied because I’m too short.
In other words, the original me was a child who deserved to be ‘treated’. Born from a high-grade egg, of course. It’s something like that, so there’s a high probability of that.
According to common sense, there’s no way these demons would raise an incompetent friend like me like this. There are also guys who work like slaves in the fort. There are so many of them beyond what exists.
All of them, too, were born from eggs laid by my mother, the Duchess… Roughly, this is what I think, but I’m not 100% sure about my current situation.
“Don’t you answer? Did you get mute again?”
The maid was about to explode in her rage as she almost clenched her fists. I don’t go crazy and I’m giving off a real man’s life. As a fucking demon, I didn’t think I could stand it.
“Other things are fine. Here. Bring some clothes. Something neat.”
So, I immediately handed out my express pass.
“Because I received a call from my mother, the Duchess.”
“What?”
“I was called by my mother, the Duchess.”
The maid who saw the limited express pass I showed her.
“Huh…!”
She opened her eyes wide and sat down, covering her mouth with her hand. Wow. Does this work really fucking well?
How would you react like this
In my heart, I wanted to hit him with a fucking blow while using my current authority.
“Quickly.”
“Yes, yes! I see!”
The maid got up and started running through her hallway.
“Bring it to my room!”
Well, the clothes issue is now over. I immediately walked down the hallway to see the location of the airfield. First of all, the area map is organized in the main hall on the first floor, so you can go there.
That was the moment I arrived at the main hall on the first floor of the fortress.
“Uh?”
I made eye contact with my peers.
“Uh! Hey! There! Dumb Culse!”
“Where? Ah! Hey! Go fuck it! Fuck it!”
“Shame on the kin!”
Demons with sturdy physiques who could hardly believe they were 10-year-old children.
Fucked.
ㅡPavabat!
They started charging at me!
“Oh fuck, I’m in big trouble!”
He immediately turned around and kicked the ground! If you get caught by those bastards, it just won’t end! They are the gang that always shouted something when they saw me who couldn’t speak and gave it to me!
“Help me! I was wrong!”
“Catch!!!”
“No, this is not it! Hey! Stop it!”
I took out the express pass right away!
“What?”
“What did that bastard say?”
“How dare you give me an order?”
When I yelled at them, they reacted as if they were dumbfounded and stopped. Then, soon after, he slowly approached me with a sarcasm.
“Do you want to go behind?”
“Hey. Look at this.”
“What is that?”
What is it?
It’s an express pass.
“I’ve been called by my mother, the Duchess. I’m on my way to the airfield on business. Let’s not interfere.”
He explained while handing out the pass right away.
“What, what? Your mother, the Duchess?”
“Where did this bastard lie like that?”
“You sold the name of your mother, the Duchess?”
But these bastards, far from stopping, suddenly start to live. But. These offspring, too, came from the eggs of the duchess, mother. I’d bet the mere dumb Culce would sell her mother’s name.
“No, no. Look at this. This is a limited express pass.”
“A pass?”
When the pass issue came up, they stuck their heads in and looked at the pass in my hand.
Soon, the guys’ expressions changed.
“…Why are you?”
“Why are you calling me?”
Anger. Jealousy.
And a face full of jealousy.
“Why did Culse…”
But I don’t know why either.
“I don’t know. That’s it. Anyway, don’t touch it. I’m going after being called, but if there’s a problem, you’ll have to take responsibility.”
The authority of the mother, the Duchess, was absolute.
“…”
“…”
“…”
The guys with their tails down turned around, biting their molars.
“Good.”
Fuck I really wish my mom was my back.
* *
I’m not sure, but thinking it was the order of my mother, the Duchess, it felt like the thoughts were focused only on that side. In a way, it feels like my mind is being controlled lightly. Is it instinct? I guess so.
Anyway, for that reason, after I finished my preparations, I headed for the capital’s palace as quickly as possible. It was my first time riding a wyvern, so it was really painful and scary. But it was fun from the middle.
And.
Giant.
I arrived in front of the Belacru Capital Palace.
Indeed, it was the capital where the mother, the Duchess, lived. There were so many strong demons, and the population as well as the cultural level was higher than the southern fortress where I was.
The most splendid among them is the capital’s palace. There were guards in front of the palace, and they all looked very strong, wearing large horns.
“It looks so damn scary.”
I feel like my legs are shaking, but I have to go.
I took a reluctant step.
“Stop. What are you?”
Immediately the guard pointed his weapon at him and asked in an imposing voice. I immediately responded by taking out my express pass and showing it.
“Hello. My name is Kuls, who came after receiving a call from my mother, the Duchess.”
“What? A call from my mother, the Duchess?”
“Here is the express pass.”
“I will confirm.”
“Yes.”
After accepting the pass, the guard entered the guard post next to it. How long has it been The guard came out again and gave me the pass back.
“You’ve been called by your mother, the Duchess, sister. Go in.”
“Uh… Yes.”
It’s a complete change of attitude.
I received a call from the duke. If so, it means that the duke has business for that person, and all beings in the dukedom must use their strength to solve the duke’s business.
This was the basic mentality of our blood relatives.
“But you’re my brother.”
As expected, the guards were also born from eggs laid by the mother, the duke. Anyway, as I was walking around the palace grounds, a guide appeared.
So I went inside the palace.
* *
“Whoa.”
After entering the palace, it was a series of tense times.
Because I arrived a little earlier than the audience date, I ended up staying in a guest room in the palace, and during that time I was taught etiquette by the palace servants.
But fuck
The palace servants were not really ordinary servants. All of them were demons who looked strong. They are probably beings hatched by the mother, the Duchess.
Perhaps it was because those nasty shoulder brothers had taught me, court etiquette was growing in my head.
“It’s about time.”
“Ah. Yes.”
And finally, it was time for an audience.
ㅡThump boom boom.
My heart feels like it’s about to explode. I finally go to see my mother, the Duchess. Mom. Why did you call me?
Is this a fucking ploy to eat me? It may not be about eating it in a strange sense, but actually thinking about eating it physically. Didn’t Bathory say that he bathed in the blood of a virgin? There’s no way humans wouldn’t call it demons, even in the face of doing such things.
ㅡRemember.
As I thought about that, I arrived in front of the audience room before I knew it. Soon I was left alone, awaiting the order to come in as per etiquette.
How long has it been
ㅡCome in.
Sweet indeed.
A captivating voice pierced my ears.
ㅡ Kikkiik.
As if possessed, I opened the door to the throne room and went inside.
