Chapter 277 – Day 41 – The Princess Opens the Long-Closed Door
“If it’s a door that was firmly closed a long time ago…”
Empress Agrippa, who snorts her coquettishly, rubs her own belly with her fingers.
“A few days ago, our beloved daughter—”
“Mom!!”
With her screams her, the princess got up from her seat and covered her mouth her, and she sent her eyes her with all her heart her begging her not to tell her dirty jokes.
“Hmm, hmm. Cha-am.. Can’t you even joke?”
She was a laughing empress, but her joke was so blatant that her reaction was more awkward than bursting with laughter.
“It looks like it failed. Hmmm… Ceres laughed a lot.”
“Uh, Mom. Enough with the weird jokes…”
Her pleading voice made the empress smile again.
“Yes, my daughter is sincerely trying to do her heir duty her, but a woman who becomes a mother shouldn’t joke about it? If it’s a door that was firmly closed a long time ago, my daughter used it some time ago.”
“…Yes?”
“How many dimension gates do you think there are in the basement of the imperial family, my daughter?
“Then, if the door was firmly closed a long time ago…”
“Yes, I’m talking about a dimensional door that shouldn’t be opened. Even the Oracle, it would have been nice if our Venus could have explained it in an easy-to-understand way.”
* * * * *
The princess knew that there was a huge space in the basement of the imperial palace and that there were several dimensional gates.
“Oh my God… It’s just as the empress said. There really was a portal here that was sealed in the Magicka Kingdom a long time ago.”
Arisa, who made a magic circle with her hands and moved her hands with difficulty, found the dimensional gateway the empress had mentioned and brought it out in front of her, wiping the sweat from her forehead.
“According to Mama’s words, do you know that you can use magic to change this huge dimension gate to the desired location at any time? Until now, I thought that you could only open the dimension gate from Galagon or Gregorio this way… “
“Of course. Wherever you want, as long as you have magic power and blood of the royal family, you can open and go at will. However, it is dangerous to recklessly open the door to a place my daughter has never been to. “
“Why are you here?”
Arisa smiled at the princess’s question.
“Think of Venus. The dimensional gateway in the imperial palace may be intact, but the other side might be destroyed, right? Maybe it’s being used as an old wine cellar.”
“Hmm… The Dimensional Gate in the Keargar Duchy was also used almost as a warehouse…”
The basement of the imperial palace is always empty, but what lies on the other side is unknown.
Gregorio and Galagon were actually not very well managed.
‘Abama doesn’t need a dimension gate like this…’
If you roughly combine her own age with the emperor’s age, she was forgotten in people’s memories, so it wouldn’t be strange to use her as a storage room.
“This dimension gate was sealed a long time ago for some reason.”
Empress Agrippa looks at her dimensional gateway with a bitter smile.
“Could it be… That the real devil is sealed away, right? Empress.”
“Oh, my God. Arisa. He and the hero killed all the real demons a long time ago. There is nothing left in this land or beyond the dimension.”
“I thought it was a fairy tale story…”
The princess was the most surprised, and Lucia had a surprisingly calm expression.
“It happened quite a long time ago. You can think of it as a small possibility that the real devil that Countess Arisa is worried about was sealed away.”
“Really? I’m really scared… Wizards aren’t stupid. Sealed portals exist for a reason.”
“It’s really going to be okay. The story of Emperor Jupiter stabbing and killing countless demons and demons with a spear is a fact that all the heresy purifiers of the Church of Saints know.”
Hearing her confident voice her, Arisa grunted and looked at her princess.
“Does opening the seal cause problems? Empress.”
“There’s no chance of that. Hedone. This door was sealed by him for a reason.
“The Emperor…?”
The princess swallowed her saliva when she heard that the emperor had directly ordered her to be sealed.
“It’s pretty… It seems like there’s an important reason.”
“The Emperor…”
Arisa and the princess are in trouble.
Can we know why Emperor Jupiter sealed it?
It was very unlikely that he, who praised her for causing a civil war and did well, would tell the princess why she acted with the thought of her war in her mind.
“No matter how much you say you shouldn’t open it in the first place… Isn’t it an Oracle?”
“I see. Oracle’s prophecy is a different story.”
“Yes, because the Oracle’s prophecies have never been wrong. Even if they have misinterpreted them.”
“I also heard about the Oracle’s prophecies at Hollympus to the point where my ears hurt. I was told to be careful in interpreting them, but…”
No matter how much Lucia, Arisa, and Hedone thought about it, they couldn’t think of any other place in the words ‘a door that was firmly closed a long time ago’.
“Um… I can’t help it. Then let’s break the seal.”
The ring made by Amilia was still on the princess’s finger her.
Even if the worst happens, if you have armor and a sword, you can do anything.
“Then I’ll break the seal right away. It’s a seal that’s close to 100 years at most…”
Arisa carefully stroked the door.
To the owner of her mage tower, sealing her old world was as easy as doing the four arithmetic operations for someone who knows how to multiply.
It should be really easy…
Arisa, who twitched her nose a few times, looked at the empress and princess once and strangely rubbed her thighs.
“Oh… Wait, that’s a big deal. I think we need one more ingredient.”
“Ashes, material?”
“Yes. I need Venus’s semen… Ouch!”
The moment Arisa said her strange words her, Lucia, who was watching it right next to her, snapped! Spanked her ass
“You have to be polite. Countess Arisa.”
“Now, wait… Ha, what did I say? Just kidding.”
“…You’re kidding…”
The princess felt really strange, but she did n’t check Arisa’s condition because her first priority was her was to unseal the dimensional gateway.
“Arisa, can you tell where this dimensional gateway is headed?”
“Hmm… Wait a minute… The dimension gate itself was made a long time ago…”
Arisa, carefully moving his finger her, fell into deep thought about 5 times, then opened her eyes.
“It’s a dimensional gateway to Londinium, the capital of the Duchy of Britannia.”
“Londinium… Coincidence is such a coincidence…”
The Oracle really gave the princess a chance to end a war in which half the empire might die.
‘If I use the ring my aunt made for me… Even killing Arthur in Rondonium…’
The princess fell deeper and deeper into thought.
‘What should I do after killing Arthur? Hmmm, of course the knights will come to arrest me. Only the closest one… No, if you cut off the head of the next strongest guy after Arthur…’
It was a natural thought, but the content was gradually becoming bloody, and the feeling of the princess also sank.
‘But at the cost of killing all the people of Londonium, the Empire…’
“Princess.”
“Ah, ah, Hedone? Did you call?”
“Don’t think weird.”
Did he know the princess’ heart her? Hedone has spoken.
“Didn’t the stupid princess say she didn’t want to walk the same path as Emperor Jupiter?”
“…Yes, I don’t want to walk down the same path as Obama.”
“The Oracle said that there must be a way beyond this door that will not cost countless lives. Is Duke Arthur an unnecessary man for the future of the Empire?”
It was a simple question, but one that could never be easily answered.
“Duke Arthur was originally such a competent person that Obama tried to marry me. Now he is a man so righteous that he is called a model of upright chivalry. How can such a man be unnecessary to the future of the empire?”
“If it can be saved, it would be better to save it, right? Just like how Princess Heojeob restored peace to all the people of Gregorio and Galagon.”
“…Yes. You don’t have to think about killing like Obama would.”
The princess, barely able to get out of her dark thoughts, patted her own chest once, and then hugged Hedone.
“The princess will be able to do it.”
Haha, don’t worry. I’ll try to make it cool.”
The princess burst into a cool smile and earnestly looked at her dimensional gateway to the capital of the Duchy of Britannia.
“I’ll have to go to Britannia and come and talk to you properly. A guy called the incarnation of chivalry… Can’t he really want to start a war like this? Yes, definitely! I told you that I have a writer called my mother!”
The princess clapped her hands and said with a happy expression.
“What am I going to do with that woman who calls her mother her… Don’t worry. I don’t intend to kill her!”
“Hmm… It’s not an impossible plan. It’s not impossible unless Duke Arthur wants to start a war.”
Arisa had an uneasy expression on her face, but the oracle’s prophecy was absolute, so she nodded with hope.
“Then I’ll make sure I stay in the imperial palace. Princess. The princess must be here…”
Hedone put on a strong expression and tried to see her princess off her, but Agrippa, standing behind her, had a different idea.
“What, Empress?”
“What are you talking about. Hedone, let the three of you go to Britannia with Ceres.”
“However…”
“Who is the mother of Venus? Who is the mistress of the imperial family? Isn’t it me, Agrippa. Do you have the confidence to organize the knights and armies coming from all over the place? Do you have the strength to keep them silent so they don’t talk nonsense?”
Hedone felt a little unfair at the empress’ words, but it was true.
She was still young, and to be honest, she was a girl who didn’t even have a domain, and had nothing other than the status of being the princess’s fiancée.
No matter how much you learn, there’s not much you can do if the other person starts to be blatantly belittling you.
“Hedona doesn’t mean you’re out of the way, but I hope our daughter, Venus, hasn’t lost her way in Britannia.”
“But if that’s the case, Mr. Ceres…”
“Hedone…”
Hedone flicked her fingers for a moment, then let out an awkward breathing sound, and she slowly walked beside her princess.
“Mi-I’m sorry, Hedone. It’s because of me…”
“No. I’m happy if I can be with the foolish princess.”
Hedone also wanted to go with the princess to tell her her honest feelings about her.
Because I was full of desire to see and feel a little more of the world and share pleasant stories.
“Venus, you don’t know what lies ahead, but come back comfortably. There won’t be a civil war happening in a week.”
“Can you really do that?”
“Of course. The Church of Saints will also lend you their strength. Please come home comfortably. Princess.”
Lucia smiled and said her words, and the princess who saw the two faces she swallowed her saliva and moved her feet as she saw Ceres waiting in front of her door.
“Ceres, open the door.”
“I understand. Princess.”
The princess held out her hand her, and Ceres took out a jeweled dagger and slit her palm.
-Jurureuk
As bright red blood dripped down the dimensional gateway, a huge amount of magical power began to flow, and it was amazing! Huge doors open wide to the left and right.
“Whew… As I feared, there was no such thing as a real demon appearing.”
“I’m glad…”
Contrary to what she said, Lucia seemed to be a bit nervous as well, so she lowered her hand on her sword.
“It doesn’t even seem like it’s being used as a strange warehouse.”
No huge wine or beer kegs suddenly spilled out of nowhere.
She could think that there was a normal space, so the princess sighed and let out her breath…
“Now, wait! Venus!! You’re not going to go that way, are you? You’re tall! You’ve got big breasts! You have golden hair, so no matter how plain you are dressed, you’re sure to get caught!”
“Ah…”
“Haa, really… I was so proud to enter the dimension gate that I didn’t even think about it!”
Arisa muttered and held out her hand to ask Ceres for the runestone.
“Hedone also stands out because he has white hair and red eyes. Even if you stay on the street for two hours, knights who want to look good to Duke Arthur will appear and take you away.”
“Is that so…”
“Of course it’s unusual! Come on, let’s both carry this runestone. We cast a spell to hide our identities, and Ceres only manages it periodically, but we won’t be chased after our identities are revealed.”
“Ohhh.. Are those the runes you wrote when you ran away from the academy?”
The princess smiled contentedly as if it hadn’t been a while and pushed the runestone Arisa gave her into her chest bone her.
Hedone saw it and tried to copy it, but Ceres hurriedly put it in the pocket of her dress.
“Then, I’ll be back as much as I can! Don’t start a war, just waste your time! No matter how greedy the nobles are! If the justification disappears, there’s nothing they can do! I’ll apologize properly to Diana and bring her back! Don’t worry!”
The princess smiled happily and walked into her dimension gate, and Hedone followed suit.
Finally, after Ceres entered, the dimensional gate naturally stopped making grand sounds and closed tightly.
“…They’re gone. Whoa…”
Arisa looked at the dimensional gateway with worried eyes, but unless she had royal blood, there was no way she could reopen the door.
“If it’s Venus, you’ll be able to do it well without any problems. Didn’t Arisa also cast a rune magic to hide your identity her? Don’t worry, let’s go upstairs and talk about it.”
Agrippa smiled kindly and slapped Arisa’s butt her.
“Empress Agrippa.”
Lucia looks at her from behind and smiles lightly.
“Oh, the High Priestess of the Church of Saints should also go upstairs.”
“You wrote ■■ to Hedone-sama.”
Agrippa gave no answer to the words that were being heard, but gave a small, coquettish smile.
* * * * *
“Ugh! Damn it!”
“I never thought I’d leave the Dimension Gate in a place like this…”
“Princess, Hedone-nim. Let’s get some clothes first.”
Fondant in a giant sewer! The princess and Hedone, who had just left, were soaked like mice caught in the rain.
Fortunately, Ceres and the princess had pockets full of gold coins on their waists, so buying clothes was no big deal.
“Uh… Sniff…! It’s bitter, it smells rotting! Damn it, even if Ceres dried his clothes like this, it wouldn’t be meaningless…!”
“So, honestly, I don’t want to wear clothes that smell like this again.”
Leading the two shivering and at a loss what to do, Ceres walked through the dark sewer as he was accustomed to.
Ceres, who found a ladder that could go up to the ground, said for a moment, then climbed up first, then put down his hand and gave a signal that it was okay to come up.
“Uh… Really. So I’m going to buy some clothes…”
The princess came upstairs muttering and opened her mouth as she watched the blue mist filling the sky with her scent her stinging the tip of her nose.
“This is the first time I’ve seen this since I was born…”
Duchy of Britannia.
Something was obviously happening here too.
