Chapter 287 – Day 43 – The Princess Needs a Plan to Sort This Situation Out. No Sex!
“Even Duke Arthur is no fool…”
After starting her pleasant morning, the princess looked out the window with her light heart and clicked her tongue briefly.
Thanks to Ceres’ diligent cleaning her throughout the day, Minerva’s mansion became a comfortable place for people to live.
“I’m using my magic to keep the knights from searching as much as possible, but…”
Titis, who checked out her window just like her princess, muttered softly in her trembling voice.
“It looks like they’re mobilizing all the knights in Rondonium to search for it. In the worst case, stupid princess… Why don’t you think about using the dimension gate in the sewers?”
“Even if you want to use it, you can’t open the door because it’s stuck in the ceiling…”
The princess had no intention of running away from Rondonium in the first place.
However, she thought that if the lives of Hedone, Ceres, Titis, and Minerva were in danger, she would not lose anything and open the dimensional gateway to escape to her imperial palace.
As a member of the imperial family, her body was hard to be easily damaged by human weapons, and she was able to fight and win even with hundreds of knights.
“Anyway… I guess I’ll have to come up with a strategy. I’m glad I went into her castle and checked her face her…”
Arthur’s mother.
A female warrior who had an adventure with Emperor Jupiter.
Ever since she checked her face, a strange feeling had been pounding in her princess’s heart her.
‘…What the hell is this heart? It’s painful because her heart is pounding.’
The feeling was different from her demon’s pounding her.
It was almost the same feeling as the excitement of a child waiting for a birthday present.
“It’s always important to plan a strategy. It’s not uncommon for a million-strong army to fail to capture a castle defended by a thousand if the leader is stupid.”
Sitting in her seat her, her leather belt tightened, Minerva tucked her own red hair lightly behind her.
“Ah, I see…”
Looking at her beautiful red hair her, the princess naturally thought of Duke Arthur and his mother his.
“Minerva, don’t be offended. Listen. I’m not asking this question out of doubt about your loyalty, but out of pure curiosity.”
“The princess does quite shocking things when she takes a break, but ho ho ho, this Minerva is always ready to answer.”
“Isn’t your hair red? Red hair is really… No, at least as far as I know, I’ve only seen Duke Arthur and you.”
“Ah.”
Minerva smiled lightly and shrugged her shoulders, and Hedone sighed unexpectedly at her.
“Stupid, foolish princess. The Lutetia family is a family that once produced an emperor’s wife and empress.”
“…Is that so?”
The princess, who has become unaware of her own family situation, is momentarily embarrassed and blushes.
“Hohoho, it’s natural that you don’t know. Princess. It’s true that the Lutetia family got married to the imperial family a long time ago, but it’s already hundreds of years ago.”
I mean, it’s such an old thing. The princess blinked her eyes and felt very bitter.
‘Perhaps… The abama of abama… Or someone higher than that did not intentionally cause the Lutetia family to fall…’
It was really creepy and unpleasant to think about.
“Anyway, yes. I asked because your red hair is pretty, so please don’t be offended.”
“To hear such compliments from the beautiful princess, the only thing left for our Lutetia family to thrive again.”
Minerva laughed cheerfully at her bravado her.
Hedone also smiles a little at that figure, but then changes her expression to a serious one as she looks at the map Ceres brings and spreads out.
“Fool princess, Mr. Ceres came to find the map of Rondonium.”
“Oh, that’s right. It’s a map from 10 years ago, but Rondonium has always been the same, so there shouldn’t be any problems.”
Jingle, Minerva laughed and waved her hand.
“Hmm… Londonium is a bigger city than I thought. Still, it’s not a place comparable to the Ecliptic…”
“I think there are at least 100 knights staying in Rondonium. Princess. I looked out the window with Mr. Ceres and looked at the insignia…”
Although not precise, there was no better way to distinguish the knights than the insignia adorned with glittering armor.
“I heard a story while doing laundry, but there are so many knights gathered in Britannia that there are many cases where the knights are left outside and only the captain of the knights enters Rondonium.”
“Oh… Minerva, it seems that what you said is true.”
Embarrassed, the princess looked at Minerva as she ate, asking Minerva to repeat her story of her.
“Tada, she brought a letter from her because she thought the princess would want to hear it again. Honestly, it’s strange for the princess to think, right?”
Minerva shrugs her shoulders lightly.
“I didn’t come here by dimensional gate like the princess did, so it would have taken me at least two weeks to come by her carriage her.”
“Isn’t there only one way to enter Britannia, that incredibly narrow land?”
It was great that Minerva, who guards the imperial palace, was invited by her, but did the guards guarding the huge gate let Minerva pass in one morning?
If you think about it seriously, there are not one or two strange parts.
“Duke Arthur sent this letter through magic to numerous knight commanders in the empire. Princess.”
Minerva once again waved the beautiful golden letter up and down.
“The content of the letter was obvious. The Empire’s justice has fallen to the ground, so blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah , blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah , blah, blah, blah. What’s important is what’s behind.”
When the letter was turned over, the elaborately shaped letters were revealed.
“Now it has expired and cannot be used, but this letter served as a rune-engraved scroll.”
“So, anyone, even if they don’t know how to use magic, and even if there are no wizards in the Knights, they were able to gather in Britannia overnight.”
Minerva nodded his head.
“Mr. Titis. Can we use this rune magic again?”
“…This is not runic magic.”
Titis sighs deeply, touches the letter once, and shakes his head.
“This is the witch’s power. It’s engraved with the witch’s evil magic that humans can’t use. It’s only natural that I was deprived of my power. That’s what the princess said… Ah…”
“Are you talking about Arisa?”
“Yes, even if she is the owner of her mage tower her, her magic system her is different, so you won’t be able to even imitate her.”
“Well then…”
The princess opened her mouth as the eyes of the unexpected.
“…Duke Arthur’s mother did the magic engraved in this letter? Even the blue smoke filling Rondonium?”
“Yes, princess. That evil warrior harassed our sisters and took away their power. You should be able to use the level of magic witches use at will with the flick of a finger.”
“…Well…”
Why?
After hearing Titis’ words, the princess had a very small question.
‘Why are you using the witch’s power, if you’re a hero who slaughtered all the demons with Abama, you wouldn’t need that kind of power…?’
If it was suspicious, it was certainly suspicious, but it wasn’t a question that could solve the princess’s problem now.
“Ghmm, let’s put aside the ramblings and think of a way to solve this problem right now.”
The princess shook her head and focused again.
“Duke Arthur was given a three-day period. Seeing as he uses the Knights to find me, you can think of war preparations as waiting for supplies and soldiers to move.”
“Yes, that’s very likely. Even now… Outside, knights are marching in line with Oh.”
At the words of Hedone, who looked outside her, the princess let out a sigh and clenched her chin.
“How about burning down the warehouse to prevent a war?”
“Even if you get lucky once, there is a possibility that you will ignorantly attack Arisa-sama the moment you are convinced that the princess is here. The opponent is someone who can use witch magic. I might have the power.”
“Keuk… If there is such a way, it would be impossible to cut off the bridge.”
After recalling all of her classical methods of her, the princess makes her calyx with her hands and puts her breast on her table, in her thoughts of her.
“…What do you think of me killing Duke Arthur?”
“Honestly, it’s not realistic. Foolish princess. Behind that Duke Arthur… There’s a possibility that a woman called the hero is watching.”
“Still, shouldn’t you try to deal with the witch’s power?”
“Princess.”
Hedone said in a serious voice.
“Did you forget that you didn’t use your strength properly when you got out of Duke Arthur’s castle?”
“Yeah, it was.”
“Perhaps, really worst of all, there’s a good chance that Duke Arthur or his mother, the warrior, knows how to curb the power of the royal family.”
“Hmm… If that’s a kill, it must be impossible to surprise Duke Arthur.”
Operations always have to think of the worst case scenario.
In the best case, you could assassinate Duke Arthur by throwing a fork at him from a duke dozens of miles away.
“Yes, and the opponent is a warrior who stood shoulder to shoulder with Emperor Jupiter. Foolish princess. She may not have enough strength, but her combat proficiency her is…”
Of course, it wasn’t that the princess didn’t fight at all.
However, will he be better than the hero who has been adventuring with Jupiter for decades and killing demons?
“Keuk… Then, why don’t we convince the knight commanders as well?”
“It’s not a bad idea. Princess, but…”
Minerva laughs bitterly.
“The number of female knight commanders is not that many.”
“It’s not that I’m going to rape you! It’s that I’m going to talk calmly and make it on our side!”
“There are only three days left. Princess. One day has already passed, so two days are left.”
As she spoke to her Ceres her, the princess eventually let out a windy sound from her mouth her.
“There is no way… There is no way… “
Titis looked at the princess muttering softly with her wry smile her.
“Still, the strategy to create division from within was good. A little more time would have been enough.”
“That’s right… To be honest, the princess will be able to use her brain as much as possible and use various methods to turn men into allies, not women.”
“Even if it’s me! There’s no way I can talk to women at once and make them on my side!”
As the princess shouted, Titis and Minerva ate and laughed.
“Ugh, and that. No matter how much I… Even if I have that kind of power. Aren’t they the ones who gathered to fight me from far away? Even if I have a crush on my body… “
The princess said with a wry smile.
“…That’s probably all. There must be many women who give up a war that might give them countless territories and honors, just for one night with me.”
“That’s also true. You won’t be able to solve the problem with sex this time. Perverted princess.”
“There’s never been a solution…! Probably.”
Minerva, who was staring at the screaming princess clenching her fists for no reason, thought for a moment and then snapped her fingers.
“Then, Princess. How about making this war dishonorable?”
“…What do you mean by that again?”
“No matter how much the knight commanders are blinded by money and drooling over the territory that Duke Arthur will share after the war, a knight is a knight first.”
Minerva speaks and points to the castle where Duke Arthur is.
“What is the pretext for this war? Princess.”
“Because I, I… Raped Diana.”
“But, what if Diana-sama said that such a thing had never happened and it was just a rumor~? What if she told Arisa Ekati-sama that she had never heard such abusive language~?
“…Because it is Duke Arthur who strongly insists on starting a war. If Lady Diana let go of her neck and cries and even says that she has already forgiven the princess, it will be quite uncomfortable for the knights.”
Hedone thought it was a good idea and gave him a nod.
“Ha… But that’s it.”
“Isn’t that a good plan? Then I’ll find out where Diana Redblood-sama is being held and come back.”
Minerva said with a smile.
“I’ll ask you a favor. Foolish princess. Then, with the help of Titis-sama, shall we devise a way to sneak in completely and completely undetected?”
“The witch’s powers are gone, but she can fool the eyes of ordinary humans. Unless Diana is imprisoned in the warrior’s room, it’s easy enough for her to sneak in.”
Titis and Hedone had already begun talking, thinking of carrying out their plan.
“Wait a minute! Why are you all talking on your own! Wait a minute!”
Surprised, the princess held Ceres’ hand her and made her women look at her.
“Will Diana forgive me! I’ve done bad things to Diana twice, twice!”
“Princess.”
Ceres puts on a grown-up expression and gently touches his hand her.
“If the princess from far and far away sincerely apologizes to her, Lady Diana will be happy to accept it.”
“Ke, Ceres…”
“What woman in the world would want thousands or tens of thousands of lives sacrificed to receive her apology her? What Diana wants is only the princess’s sincere apology, not a war like this.”
Watching Ceres speak her words her calmly, the princess looks at the women around her.
“That’s right. Lady Diana wants her princess’s apology and her love her, not her jewelry box full of blood and her skull.”
“Even if I think about it, Diana-sama is not the kind of person who wants to go to war~ There, a wonderful princess appears like a prince on her white horse and saves her, and if she apologizes, she will 100% be eaten.”
“Hmm~ I don’t know if I can say this as a witch, but that duke named Diana seemed to regret it.”
The princess listened to her story and bowed her head.
It may be the last chance given in her life her.
“Well, then. Everyone help me out.”
A problem that started without an apology can only be solved by an apology first.
