Chapter 820 – Day 94 – Not Everyone Can Like the Princess
The knight commanders who gathered as one at Elaine’s summons were all the same mind and supported the princess.
They were truly prepared to sacrifice their lives in affirmation of the path of justice that the princess wanted to walk, and they seemed like beings who could do anything if her orders were given.
Unfortunately, if there are 10 people, there are also 10 hearts.
“What, did it end up like this?”
The woman who snorted in an angry voice was only occupying a seat at the round table, unlike many knight commanders who were standing up from their seats.
She was wearing quite revealing clothes and had heavy make-up that made you wonder if she was really what she was wearing. She was holding something with her left hand and grinding the fingernails on her right hand.
“If you weren’t going to reflect any of your opinions like this, why did you ask us to gather in Britannia?”
“Sabas, this is in front of the Crown Princess. Please be careful with your words and actions.”
“Aang~ I don’t like it. I thought we were having a huge meeting since all the great knight commanders were gathered in one place.”
The woman called Savvas, who made a snorting noise, blew the dust off her fingertips and looked at her princess.
Her eyes burned with quite a provocative feeling.
“Isn’t it funny when you think about it? Wouldn’t the Crown Princess be better?”
“What do you want to say?”
“To be honest, I don’t know what the definition you are talking about is.”
“Sabbath…”
Arthur pressed her forehead with his right hand. He never wanted to call Savvas to this meeting, but he couldn’t help it.
“Why? Why are you giving me such a headache? I was wrong, huh? Who will do the difficult work if I participate in this great treasonous march?”
Savvas raised the corner of his mouth.
“Is the war run by the Crown Princess Naeuri here? Isn’t she right? From the summoning of soldiers, management of knights, strategy and tactics, and even the preparation of supplies, to the prostitutes who will follow us around!”
“Sabbath!”
“It’s an obvious fact! When the war is over, the princess here will sit on the golden throne in style, but what about us? After all, shouldn’t we end up as knight commanders?”
Arthur sighed deeply at the blatant expression of discomfort.
“Savas, aren’t you also a knight who has sworn to the path of justice? The path of justice that the princess walks is different from that of Emperor Jupiter, who has nothing to say even if he is called a tyrant!”
“That’s right, Lord Savvas. Think about it. Wasn’t it Emperor Jupiter who didn’t provide proper support to the land you ruled?”
“If you think about it a little, it’s only natural. Didn’t you hear the rumor that demons called Eternity were whispering to the nobles? I don’t intend to say that those who fell for that trick were justified, but it was the emperor who drove them to the edge of the cliff! “
Even when Arthur and other knight leaders spoke, Savvas only shrugged his shoulders.
“So~ Everyone says that, but that means Emperor Jupiter has done a good job, right? To be honest, I think he brought a good cause because he wanted to become emperor quickly.”
“Don’t say that. I, too, have a way of not becoming emperor, and that saves everyone—”
“—Stop. Isn’t that kind of story too obvious? There is no other way to become emperor, but saying that if there was another way, you wouldn’t become emperor. Isn’t that too much of aristocratic humility?”
The princess was not angry at Sabas’ words.
“Are you saying that the justice I speak of is only superficial?”
“That’s the correct answer. I wonder if a bunch of old people will gather here and applaud, saying, “Our Crown Princess is doing great!!”
“Why do you say that?”
“Because you are just as greedy as Emperor Jupiter.”
Sabas laughed and pointed.
“You stack up a mountain of women and date them. You shake your hips.”
“That is.”
“Ah, ah, ah yes! I know. I know it very well. You must have a story. By the way, isn’t there something like that about Emperor Jupiter? The process of creating the ultimate successor to our great emperor is that after we die and enter the coffin, the bones are left behind. By the time it ripens and disappears, it will eventually bear fruit, right?”
Arthur ended up putting his hand on Sabbath’s waist.
“Sabbath! Stop! Stop mocking the princess’s justice. You, who occupy a seat at the round table, must not continue to ridicule and ridicule her like that.”
“So! Show me what that handsome justice is! How is he any different from the emperor! He has a woman next to him! He is using our knights, citizens, and soldiers to do what he wants! You don’t want to drag me to a battlefield where tens of thousands of people will die!”
“Didn’t you see the princess suffering!?”
“Anguish?! I can do it!! I can pretend to be humble!! But here, for about 30 minutes, you are arguing with us saying, ‘Will you do it or not?’ And what are you doing with the lives of the people who will be taken to the battlefield starting tomorrow and die? There is a relationship!”
The atmosphere became even more hostile due to Sabbath’s shouts.
“Sabbath…”
Arthur smoothed his throbbing hair. If you ask if the logic is completely wrong, it is not.
However, the princess clearly had no intention of using them as ‘tools’. She hoped that even if war broke out, she would be the only one shedding blood.
But, that didn’t happen. No matter how much the princess told Savvas, who was worried that the rainy season would start tomorrow, that she would bring an umbrella, there was no umbrella in her hand.
She said, “She was said to be the witch of the East, so I had no choice but to let her open her mouth…”
Elaine clicked his tongue. As expected, it was difficult to receive the support of all the knights as expected.
“Aunt Elaine.”
“Sometimes things don’t work out.”
“Isn’t what Sabas said wrong?”
The princess caught her breath and approached Sabas.
Unlike her, who was still sitting in her seat, the princess was standing on her two legs.
“Oh my, be scared. Is our crown princess, Naeuri, now trying to fuck me too?”
Despite her blatant sarcasm, the princess smiled.
“Savas, how can I gain your trust?”
“Hmm…”
Sabbath’s expression became subtle as he placed his hand on his flowing brown braided hair.
“I don’t understand.”
“What do you mean?”
“I am a witch from the East. Although I am classified as a knight commander, I am fundamentally different from the knight you wish for.”
“Just looking at your clothes, it seemed like that.”
The princess blatantly looked at Sabbath’s chest, which was more than half exposed.
“Pfft, it looks like you have no intention of hiding your lewdness?”
Savas, who snorted at her, looked into the princess’s eyes.
“It’s not necessary. We in the East.”
“Is that possible? You are also members of the empire on which the sun never sets.”
“I don’t plan on listening to ideals, do I?”
“Listen carefully, Sabas. I just want to walk the path that is right for everyone. That is universal goodness: cherishing life, loving family, and caring for those you love.”
Savvas twirled his fingers.
“So, even though you are a knight, you also need my support, not as a knight? According to our Crown Princess Nauri’s famous theory of justice?”
“Lord Savvas! Stop!”
Arthur wanted to pull out his sword and hit Sabbath on the head right now.
Haha, that’s a shame. That’s it.”
Savvas waved his hand gently.
“I don’t care about your justice. Let the people who live near Holympia take care of themselves. We, the people of the East, will take care of ourselves according to where we live.”
Sabas stood up, looked at the princess, and winked.
“To be honest, we don’t need our strength, right? The emperor faction and the princess faction. Even if a civil war breaks out like that, we are on the periphery.”
Sabas rose completely from his chair, raised his right hand and waved it. She walked toward her door, showing the line of her buttocks twitching.
“Sabbath, listen to my story.”
“What…”
Sabas, who expected that he would understand this much, was suddenly surprised when the Crown Princess, who was like heaven, grabbed his right hand.
“What, are you so short of troops? Then even more so—”
“Do you know Carcassonne?”
“Why that fortress city?”
“There was a demon from the East in Carcassonne. It was a man disguised as a famous nobleman.”
Sabas blinked his eyes silently.
“He eventually became the Demon King, and he was barely able to defeat him in the mountains of Holympia.”
“So…”
“Don’t you know? Why would such demons pretend to be nobles from the East?”
The princess held Sabas’ hand tightly.
“Even though Abamama has the power to prevent demons who act like that, she did nothing.”
The princess could not give up even a single support from Sabas, a person who was truly nothing.
“Let me prove something else.”
“What are you talking about?”
“No matter how far away your hometown is from Holympia, being treated harshly by demons and being harassed should never be allowed to happen again!”
“Well, you’re going to do that?”
Sabas was a little embarrassed.
She was a girl born and raised very far away from Holympia.
Even when she was told to come from Britannia, somewhere in her heart, she was furious that they would only call us when they were in trouble and not even give us any help when we were having a hard time.
“Don’t play around. It won’t happen overnight.”
“Wouldn’t we need your support and help to get started?”
The princess held her hand tightly and caressed the back of her hand.
“This is my first time experiencing something like this…”
People of Holympia.
People of Britannia.
A story that neither Arthur nor Elaine were interested in.
“… It’s okay. Neither I nor my knights are in a good position to be caught up in an invisible justice.”
Sabas hesitated with an awkward smile before dropping the princess’s hand. She then waved her hand to indicate that she would not talk any more and walked up the stairs.
“I told you, my nephew. There are some things in this world that cannot be said in words.”
The princess smiled at a word from Elaine, who slowly approached her from behind.
“Don’t you mean that as long as there is visible justice?”
After spitting out her absurd answer, the princess moved her body to follow Savas.
