A Journey Of A Delusional Witch
Chapter 48: The Heirs of Drakon Kingdom

In a magnificent hall full of history, displayed a very beautiful and majestic throne.

The throne is entirely made of pure gold decorated by beautiful and sparkling gemstones. The throne is positioned in such a way as to make the person sitting on the throne is at a higher level than the others.

Sitting on the throne was the most powerful person in the Drakon Kingdom.

King Krieger Blut Drakon.

Decorating her bright red hair was a golden crown adorned by a dark blue gem that was the same color as her eyes. With the sharp look of his eyes, made everyone who fell in his sight become subdued.

Standing beside him was the Crown Prince, Draco Blut Drakon.

Different from the father, Draco has hair as red as embers in a neat comb. His sea-blue eyes added with his handsome face make every woman become washed away in their fantasies.

In front of the two of them were the nobles and other important people. Each of them stood beside a red carpet that stretched from the entrance to the throne.

The reason they were all gathered was to listen to the latest reports of the fighting that had occurred at the border recently.

"Get into the room, Commander of the 3rd order of knights. Commander Onlay von Miller!"

Dressed in a complete, glittering-looking Armor, Commander Onlay walked gallantly before finally stopping and bowing his head before the King and Crown Prince. Walking with him were his two most loyal knights.

"Report, I'm facing to give you a report"

His voice was loud but still full of manners. With one small nod from King Krieger, Onlay gained permission to continue speaking.

Obtaining permission, Onlay then continued to report everything that happened in the Barriere Forest without missing a single detail.

Listening to this, King Krieger's originally calm expression began to become wrathful.

"So... You said that the people from Narsist Kingdom are right at our border!"

The aura emitted by King Krieger was so intimidating that it made everyone in the room be it nobles or the guards tremble in fear. Even so, Prince Draco who was right beside the King looked calm as if he felt nothing.

Being right under the King's sight, Commander Onlay forced himself to keep talking.

"Right, the knights from the Narsist Kingdom that we managed to contain have now been placed in the dungeon..."

Listening to the further reports from Commander Onlay, the aura emitted by King Krieger began to diminish although it was still quite pronounced.

Even so, his sharp gaze remained the same.

His initially focused views on Onlay now began to turn to sweep the Nobles present at this meeting.

Realizing that they were under the King's gaze, cold sweat began to flood the nobles trembling in fear. Anxiety filled them as the King simply stared at them without saying a word.

"Onlay von Miller... You mean that you sent a report as soon as you learned of Narsist Kingdom's involvement?"

"That's right... Your Majesty"

"Then, why have I never heard of this at all?"

The King's gaze was now upon his advisor who stood not far from him. His thin body makes him look like a small animal in the presence of a lion.

Feeling that he had no other choice, the Counselor simply replied in full stammering.

"Mo-please ma-sorry, the Mu-lia... The palace, never once, received word from the border"

"Not once?"

"Rightly so... Your Majesty"

Without even saying it, everyone in the room could tell that the King was furious. Moreover, the nobles whose territory they were in were close to the border as well as those who were in charge of taking care of the flow of information in the Kingdom. Their luxurious clothes had been completely soaked by their own sweat.

In the middle of it all, the Crown Prince looked calm even smiling cheerfully. With a light step, he advanced to face the wrathful King.

"Yahanda, your son feels that this is a testament to how important the proposal that I have put forward some time ago"

With a wide smile on his face, the Crown Prince looked like a little boy asking his father for a toy.

"Are you aware of how many lives you would lose if your proposal were realized?"

"That's a necessary sacrifice..."

Hearing the conversation between the King and the Crown Prince, everyone immediately froze.

No one ever thought that their smiling Prince would be able to plan something that would definitely make blood spill with a smile on his face.

Some nobles became worried about the future of their Kingdom, while others felt relieved when they found out that the next King's successor was someone who could rule this Kingdom firmly.

As if attracted by their reaction, the Crown Prince's smile seemed to be getting brighter. Still facing the King, he waited for an answer.

"...well, if this works, then your position as my successor will be irrefutable. However, if only you failed..."

"You can rest easy, your son will not fail"

That way, it had been decided that whatever proposal the Crown Prince put forward, it was something that would change this Kingdom completely.

Feeling that he was no longer needed, Commander Onlay waited for him to be allowed to resign...

"No need to rush... There's still something that needs your presence"

On the King's orders, Commander Onlay abandoned his intentions and switched to marching among the other nobles.

With the permission of the King, the next person is welcome to enter the room.

"Get into the room, representative of the Union. Headmaster Sebastien!"

Entering the room was an elderly man wearing a neat suit and a Rapier hanging on his waist. Despite his age, his body still looks sturdy and muscular. Her hair has turned white

feels good with his fierce looks.

Having reached the position where Commander Onlay had previously stood, Sebastien then saluted before the King.

"Report, I'm facing on His Majesty's orders"

"Good, the reason why you were called here is to say everything you know about a Witch who has recently settled in this Kingdom"

Hearing the word 'Witch' the room was instantly filled with the voices of the nobles whispering to each other.

This is understandable.

It is common knowledge that the existence of a Witch can have both good and bad effects on a Kingdom.

Moreover, for a Witch who rarely came out of their hometown, chose to settle in a Kingdom. This is something that is rare and impossible to miss.

Different from the others, Commander Onlay seems to know who the Witch the King really means and why his presence is still needed.

"Shut up!" with just one word, the entire room instantly returned to silence. After being convinced that no one was making a sound, the King ordered Headmaster Sebastien to speak.

"Report, the identity of the Witch is known. The witch was named Lavender La Ciel..."

Sebastien meticulously mentioned any information about Lavender that the Union had known. Including the latest reports regarding his relationship with Sol Ciel and the Barriere Forest he had just taken

aanp.

"...all the information we know. The last sighting of the Lavender Witch was the news of her along with the Cardinal Witch passing through the Barriere Forest to head for Ferox Kingdom"

"Onlay's... Is what he said true?"

"Yes, Your Majesty"

Knowing that a Witch who could possibly become a Royal Witch went towards the neighboring Kingdom was indeed a little worrying. However, given the current situation, they most likely went to Ferox Kingdom just to pass by.

Their true goal was to return to the Sanguine Kingdom where the headquarters of Sol Ciel was located.

Given that the 'His' Dungeon was inside his Kingdom, King Krieger suspected that the Lavender Witch would return and that was when the opportunity to elevate her to the Royal Witch came into existence.

True, King Krieger intended to make the Lavender Witch a Royal Witch.

Of course he had already prepared a very tempting gift for any Witch. Even if his offer is rejected, King Krieger still hopes to at least maintain a friendly relationship

the Lavender Witch.

But not everyone seems to think of him.

"Your Majesty, will you just shut up when someone takes over the territory of our Kingdom!?"

"That's right!"

"Just because he's a Witch doesn't mean they can be arbitrary in other Kingdoms!"

"More Witches are Half-Demons! We must destroy it as soon as possible!"

"That's right!"

"Your Majesty..."

The nobles ceaselessly voiced their opinions as if they were in fidelity. The sight of those who were silent in fear was no longer there. There was only the sight of people dressed in extravagant clothes exclaiming like workers asking for a raise.

"BE QUIET YOU ALL!!!"

!!!!Bang!!!!!

With just a single blow, the entire palace seemed to be hit by an earthquake. Those who did not stand up properly instantly fell to the floor after being hit by the shock.

The nobles who were originally noisy instantly went back into silence a thousand languages. The cold sweat had completely flooded them after they realized what they had just done.

"Mo-please forgive us for our stupidity!"

"""!Sorry for our stupidity!"""

One by one they bowed down and begged for mercy before the King.

Witnessing this, King Krieger could only resign and began to assume that proposals from his son were necessary.

"Maybe there are some of you who are not aware of this... Ibis Forest and Barriere Forest are not part of Drakon Kingdom"

At the words of the King, many nobles had question marks on their heads. 'Is Ibis Forest and Barriere Forest not part of Drakon Kingdom? Impossible!' that's what their heads are like at this point.

"Here you go, let your son continue"

"Please..."

With the consent of the King, the Crown Prince then told the audience a little history of the Drakon Kingdom.

Once upon a time, the Ibis Forest was just an ordinary forest. And yet! After a Devil (Demon) occupies it and makes the forest its nest, everything changes.

At that time, Gata City was not yet standing. There was just an ordinary empty grassland.

By the time the Drakon Kingdom finally realized that there were Devils residing in the forest, the King of the Drakon Kingdom at that time immediately sent an elite army to conquer the Devil.

The devil will not remain silent. With his own army, he faced off against the forces of the Drakon Kingdom head-on.

After a long battle, the King of Drakon Kingdom at that time finally sent one of his sons to go and conquer the Devil.

Armed with the proud artifacts of the Drakon Kingdom, the Prince set out to advance into battle.

In the end, there was no more news regarding the Prince after he entered the forest. And so does the devil who lives there.

People finally assumed that their Prince had managed to finish off the Devil at the cost of his own life.

Even so, many people are still pessimistic that the Devil is still alive.

Moreover, the condition of the Forest that is now called the Ibis Forest has changed completely. Many people began to disappear when they entered the forest. Rumor has it they saw a dangerous sighting of Mobs in there.

It gave the impression that the Ibis Forest had been cursed by the Devil who was recovering the wounds he suffered while fighting the Prince.

In order to appease them, a city that served as a fortress was established near the forest as a precaution if only the Devil were truly alive.

"...and so are the attendees, the beginning of the story of the formation of Gata City. That way we can all know. Although Ibis Forest belongs to our Kingdom, it belongs to the region

a forbidden we cannot touch.

In fact, if, and only if, we could defeat the Lavender Witch and reclaim the Ibis Forest, we would still not be able to do anything against that forest.

After all, I heard that the income of Gata City has increased drastically since Ibis Forest became a Dungeon. Doesn't that mean that the actions of the Lavender Witch have helped the Kingdom prosper?

Then, regarding the cursed item capable of controlling Mobs' army, wouldn't it be better if the item was handed over to the Lavender Witch, to Sol Ciel? If it was them, they would have been able to handle and

keep the item safe. Imagine, if another Kingdom found out if the Drakon Kingdom had an item like that? Will they not be suspicious of us? Do you want the relationship between Kingdoms that have been built for decades to collapse just because of an item?"

No one can deny the words of Prince Draco. All of them could only bow down in shame at their childish actions.

Satisfied, Prince Draco then returned to his original place and allowed the King to return to lead.

"As you have heard, the actions of the Lavender Witch to date have only benefited the Drakon Kingdom. I also believe that what he did to the Barriere Forest will also eventually

it has a positive impact on all of us"

Feeling that this topic was over, King Krieger then allowed Headmaster Sebastien to retreat before finally calling the next person.

"Now, tell me. What action will we take against the refugees who come to our beloved Kingdom? And, how many troops do we have to send to root out those narcissists?"

...

Still inside the Palace, in a study room, there is a view of a teacher teaching his students.

The student who was a girl who had just turned 12 years old seemed to be studying diligently.

Wearing a cute lacy dress, as well as a small pair of glasses that covered her sea-blue eyes, the girl seemed to listen to what her teacher said while sweeping her red hair too long to sometimes cover her eyes.

The girl's name is Wyrms Blut Drakon.

The first and second daughter of the Drakon Kingdom's successors.

Although still very young, his intelligence has been recognized by many people. Added to his submissive character, he was well-liked by the Servants and officials working within the Palace.

"Is the Wyrms here!"

The one who entered in a very disrespectful manner to the point of disrupting the study schedule of a Royal Princess. No other and no one is his own brother.

The second prince of the Drakon Kingdom, Drake Blut Drakon.

Having eyes and hair as blue as the ocean that he inherited from his mother, his handsome face, and his position as a Royal Prince, made him favored by noble girls even though not as much as his eldest brother, Draco.

Although Drake was three years older than his younger brother Wyrms, he was even last in the inheritance.

In response to the disrespectful attitude of her brother, Wyrms simply greeted her while displaying a smile that never faded from her face.

"O sister, are you not afraid of your mother's anger if you know the attitude of this disrespectful sister?"

"Enough with that disgusting smile! I came here to ask!"

"What question is that?"

"Tch, stop smiling and tell me! How can you who are so much younger than me even precede me in inheritance!"

Princess Wyrms glanced towards the door that had just been broken down which featured some palace guards who did not know what to do. Next he glanced at his teacher who could only fall silent from not being able to continue the lesson.

With the same smile on her face, Princess Wyrms finally looked straight at her brother.

"I think the fact about the older brother who is still unaware of what you just did is the most obvious answer..."

"Silence you're a worm!"

Unable to bear the expression and words of his own brother, Prince Drake who was overwhelmed by anger lunged directly at his sister with his right hand clenched.

The guards who saw this immediately attempted to stop Prince Drake. Honey, they're so far away they can't do it.

There was only an inch left before his fist landed on his sister's smiling face. However, without him realizing the figure of his sister had disappeared and his hand was just punching empty air.

At the same time, unable to stop his speed, Prince Drake's legs nudged the chair originally sat by Princess Wyrms which eventually made him fall hard on the floor.

"Agh..."

Resisting the pain, Prince Drake discovered that his sister had been standing next to him while confirming the position of his glasses and gazing low at Prince Drake who was now sitting on the floor.

A moment later, the Palace Guards immediately restrained Prince Drake to prevent him from doing any further.

"Not only did it interfere with my study time, my brother even tried to hurt me. Mom's not gonna be happy about this, you know?"

Seeing the innocent expression of his sister, Prince Drake became extremely wrathful.

"Basic worms! Hey, guys! Unhand me! Have you forgotten who I am!"

"I'm sorry, but we're just following orders"

"Then I command you to take your hands off me! I'm your Prince!"

Watching her brother on the wine forcefully outside the room, Princess Wyrms waved her hand with a sweet smile on her face.

After the Palace Maid re-cleansed the slightly messy study room, Princess Wyrms then continued her delayed learning.
