Princess In Another World: New Story
38
Special headquarters.
“Haaaa.”
“You why? Starting just sighing continuously, are you not feeling well?” (Lucy)
“I'm just worried about Iona.”
“Deputy commander, the new daughter you left behind has not been up to 1 week but you already miss her.” (Male)
“Haaaa, how else. I'm worried about him, what if he doesn't have any friends there, what if he gets bullied there. I'm worried about that.”
“It's been too much, lo deputy commander. That Princess Iona is a great girl, I'm sure she can handle all such problems by herself. He's learned a lot from you anyway, so you shouldn't have to worry about him.”
“Sorry to interrupt, deputy commander there wants to see you.” (Grild)
“Huh?”
A few moments later.
A girl who feels familiar to me. “Ari, I finally found you.”
“Wah, I did not expect that the vice commander would have an affair so soon.” (Male)
“Hmmm, I didn't expect.” either (Lucy)
“You misunderstood!!”
“Do you not recognize me, I am the one imprisoned with you.”
“Jail with me?” I try to remember it. “Ahhh, Ritose.”
“Yes, thank you I think you've forgotten.”
“Yes, you're so different from before so I don't recognize you. Then, what brings you all the way here?”
“Hey, at least introduce this girl first to us.” (Lucy)
“Yes, that's right. Is he not your mistress, deputy commander. I-I didn't expect you to do that when there hasn't been 1 week since the princess left.” (Male)
“I told you you guys misunderstood. Yes, as you heard we met in jail.”
“Jailed?” (Male)
“You mean during your rescue in the kingdom of Victoria?” (Lucy)
“Yup, I met him there.”
“By the way, which kingdom are you from?”
“I am from the kingdom of Norwn.”
“Norwn Kingdom, isn't that a long way from here.”
“Very far away? How far?”
“The kingdom is possible if using Dravin will be up after 3 weeks and if using a horse carriage will take months.”
“Wah, uh... Then, is there any need for you to come all the way here? And again, how do you know that I'm in this kingdom?”
“I know from some buffets that saved you, and also the name of princess Iona and prince Lucy.”
“Hmmm, so so. Then, what's your purpose in coming here?”
“Married me!!!”
“Eh?!”
“EHH!!!!” Not only me, but Ria and Lucy were shocked to hear that.
“T-wait a minute, why can you easily say that?”
“You already have a partner?”
“Iya.”
“If you can know, who?”
“Princess of this kingdom.”
“Once, yes.”
“Weew, I didn't expect you'd say that.” (Lucy)
“I also.” (Male)
“During the holidays, did something happen between you and princess Iona?”
“Eh? T-no’kok. Nothing happened, nothing happened.”
“You repeated it up to 2 times, there must be something going on. You gulped, I've guessed there must be something going on between you and the princess.”.
“S-already, don't discuss it. Ritose, what exactly is your purpose in coming here, there is no way you came all the way here just to say that.”
“You switched the conversation.”
“Actually..” Ritose started telling her, the reason why she came all the way here.
Long enough after that.
“Hmmm, so, yes. So now that the kingdom you live in is destroyed, you came here to see Ari and want to ask for her help, like that.” (Lucy)
“Iya.”
“Can or not I help you, your kingdom has been destroyed is a different thing. Right now it is possible that all the people in the kingdom who survived went to another kingdom to ask for protection.”
“Once, yes.”
“If you want a place to stay, I can give it to you, but if you do the impossible such as helping to defeat the kingdom that destroyed your kingdom. Forget it.”
“T-no, that's enough. Thanks.”
“Ria, can deliver him to the kitchen, give him food.”
“Good, come with me.”
“Ya.” They both left
“Hey, you told people's lovers to do the job.”.
“Lucy, what do you think?”
“Hmmm, she is quite sweet and also quite pretty she also has a nice body.”
“Not that, perverted brain base. But about the story earlier, what do you think?”
“Ohhh, the. If he's only here to find a place to live, it's very suspicious. In addition, this kingdom has no relationship with the kingdom that is east. If it's just because he knows you, it's weird too. I think he's hiding something. It's just that I think it's true or not that I don't know either. But you better watch out for him, and more importantly, don't let your heart move to another heart.”
“Basic, you're the.”
“Hahaha, but I'm a little curious. You and the princess did it?”
“A-what are you saying. Where possible mela..”.
“Hmmm, as I expected. I never thought it turned out to be an aggressive princess too.”
“Hey, I'm not done talking.”
“You talk or not, I already know from your face. Even if you don't want to talk or not, I already know. Besides I advised you to leave, so I already knew something like that would happen.”
“You're creepy.”
“It's not as scary as people who want to destroy a kingdom very easily.”
“You know it.”
“The squad leaders talked about it, a strange incident that happened in the kingdom of Guil. I think it was you, after all, it's not strange now that you can do something like that. Then, what's your reason for doing that?”
“The king made Iona hurt.”
“So, I understand.”
“You understand?”
“I also have Ria, if until someone else hurts her I will definitely do the same with you. That's why I understand why you do that. But, it seems like it's getting a little complicated. You understand what I mean’.”
“Other kingdoms will start to be wary of Thorwn.”
“You can destroy a kingdom easily, that is the fact. But the good news is, maybe they will be more careful if they want to fight this kingdom, in addition to having a great army of vice commanders also have great strength. Like that.”
“I hope it can be that easy.”
Afternoon.
I invited Ritose to speak a little. “Ritose, if you may know where your parents are?”
When he said that, he lowered his head. “They already...” From the expression I already know.
“So, sorry to ask that.”
“It's okay.”
“Hmmm, so you came here by yourself, yes. Where do you usually leave?”
“I usually sleep in the forest, if there is a good person I am left to sleep in his house.”
“You're here on foot?”
“Iya, sometimes I am given a ride if the direction is the same.”
“It looks like you've been through a lot of hard things.” (Lucy)
“If possible, I also want to work.”
“Work?”
“Iya, I don't want to just want to get everything for free. Give me a job, anything I'll do.”
“Hmmm, what can you do?”
“Murders.”
“M-kill.” Ria and Lucy were surprised to hear that.
“Haaaa, he is a spy, and he is also pretty good at killing. The reason he was considered a Victorian for wanting to kill the king, but I saw his skills. Pretty impressive.”
“Why didn't you say that from the beginning!!!”
“You no one asked.”
“There may be a time we thought to ask such a thing.”
“Haaa, stop. Ritose, if you want you can work under the guidance of the squad leaders, of course besides being paid you will also be trained by them.”
“Trained? I've been practicing a lot.”
“Hmmm, you look confident. How about we see what you're capable of?”
“Bby.”
Training area.
“Alright, who will fight it?” The squad leaders gathered and this was seen by all the troops here.
“Grild, you're the one who advanced.” (Laren)
“Eh, I don't want to. Famus, you'll.” (Grild)
“I'm not feeling well, what about Dirk?” (Fame)
“Alright, then I'll just.” Famus stood up and entered the area.
“So Dirk, yes who will advance.”
“Deputy commander, may I ask you something?”
“Please.”
“Destination of this match, for what?”
“Hmmm, the girl you're going to fight she's going to be your student, so I want you to show your different abilities.”
“So.”
“Eh? If I, usually use the sword.”
“Med, yes. Since using a sword can be dangerous, use a wooden sword only. That's enough’.”
“Iya.”
They both started to take positions. “Hmmm, okay. Prepare yourselves. Ready, start!!”
The first attack was started by Ritose. The attack was sudden and quite fast, but Dirk managed to hold it off easily. “The movement is good too. It seems like he's used to doing things like this.” (Lucy)
“Iya, I think it's like that too.” Every move he made was so powerful and also he looked like he was used to slashing weapons like that.
“But, the movement looks so rough and predictable. It seems that no one is training him, although there is a high possibility of being trained because his movements are rhythmic but he is not so noticed by the person who trains him.”
“You were great until you could guess like that just by looking a little.”
“I only judge from some of the factors that I see, true or not I do not dare to guarantee it.”
It didn't last long, the match ended and Ritose lost.
“You have talent, but it's a pity you don't have the right teacher. But take it easy, we'll train you to be a great man. Correct’ deputy commander.”
“Iya.”
“K-in that case, please help him in the future.”
Today the squad leaders get 1 new student who has talent, helping to sharpen a sword so that sharp belongs to his student is the duty of a teacher. I want to see how far Ritose's development will go under the training of the squad leaders.
A few weeks after that.
In the meeting room.
We were talking about business, and it was going on very quickly. The meeting was over without me noticing.
“Haaaaa, how much longer should I wait!! If it's longer than this I won't be able to survive!!”
“Hey, come. Every working day you complain constantly, it's only been 1 month since the princess left and your attitude changes much like this.” (Lucy)
“Princess goes?” (Ritose)
“Iya, the princess is currently in the kingdom of Guil.”
“Kingdom Guil? Why?”
“Rightly to pursue his dream.”
“So.”
“Haaaaa, can I still not see it?”
“Do not like that deputy commander, if you come to him too often later the princess will not feel at home there. What if he suddenly wants to go home because he meets you too often?” (Male)
“Of course I'll bring him back, indeed let alone.”
“Basic. Anyway for now you can't go anywhere, remember that.”
“Aaaaaahhhh!!! It sucks.”
“Calm down, when the time comes I'll tell you. It's best to fill free time, do your job.”
“I've done it all.”
“So. Hey, where are you going.”
“Pacify yourself, I'll be back before afternoon.”
---
In the middle of the forest.
“Haaaa, at least here I can be a little quiet.” I was at the place where I had brought Iona here, I lay under the big tree and enjoyed the calm wind. “This, sucks.” My mind could not calm down from the moment I left Iona in that kingdom.
What Lucy said is true, if I go there too often it might affect Iona's learning, but I can't help it myself. “Haaaa, I want to take a short break here. At least for a while, I can hold it.”
Afternoon.
At headquarters.
“Where have you been!! You said you'd be home before afternoon.” (Lucy)
“Ahahaha, sorry I overslept.”
“Basic. I just got a message from princess.”
“From Iona? What did he write, did he miss me?”
“Yes, at least there's that word he wrote in this letter. But more importantly.”
His face became a little anxious. “Lucy, what's wrong? Is there something?”
“Kingdom Guil wants to start attacking.”
“Attack? To what kingdom?”
“Tania.”
“Tania?”
“Yes, if not wrong it happened a few years ago. Most likely Guil wants to return to take over his area which has been captured by the kingdom of Tania.”
“Just ignore it, after all it has nothing to do with me. That's the kingdom's business, I don't care.”
“After I said that the academy students in the kingdom will also participate, you still said it has nothing to do with you.”
“Cih, dragging students to do things they shouldn't. That king, it looks like I should indeed kill him.”
“That's creepy, you don't have to do that. There are 2 choices you can make, and those choices will have an impact on princess life in Guil.” kingdom
“Hmmm, bring him back until their war subsides, or threaten the king not to do that. Like that?”
“For the first point it is true, but for the second it seems difficult, and why can you think like that? Moreover, they wanted to reclaim the land that was already supposed to belong to them, so it was very difficult to stop it.”
“You mean I have to intervene in a problem I didn't make, like that?”
“Yes. If you have a choice again, you can do it but as I said earlier it will have an impact on the life of the princess in the kingdom.”
“Hmmm, if I help I will likely be considered a savior, but since I and Iona have a relationship there will likely be someone who takes advantage of it. Then, if I stop that, other than the name of this kingdom Iona who studied there will most likely also get bad treatment. Like that's what you said impacted?”
“Yes, all those options are nothing that will not have an impact on the princess. But, it all depends on your choice.”
“Tell me, you want me to help the kingdom’.”
“Hahahaha, what's wrong with making that kingdom owe us. Isn't that a good thing, that way you don't have to worry about the state of the princess there. Yeah, like you said, maybe somebody's gonna take advantage of that, but I'm sure he's gonna be protected, too. Of course because if anything happens to him, you'll definitely do something, right’.”
“If you discuss something like this you can think of it to that extent.”
“Just your mind is not calm, if you are calm as usual maybe this problem can be solved easily.”
“Then, I'll go.”
“Heeeeeiiiii, wait. Don't rush like that, tomorrow you're leaving. Now prepare the troops first before leaving.”
“I have to use the troops?”
“Your job is to take over, not flatten. Therefore troops are needed, not only about strength but this is also included in other important things needed in taking power.”
“Hmmm, true also.”
At night, in the meeting room.
Lucy, Ritose and the squad leaders gathered here.
“Hmmmm, well, according to the news I heard from Lucy sent by Iona. The kingdom of Guil wants to invade the power of the kingdom of Tania to reclaim their share of the kingdom.”
“Vice commander.” (Fame)
“Ya.”
“Isn't that Guil's private business, why are we discussing it?”
“Hmmm, Iona loves that kingdom. In addition, the students also had to take part in the battle which meant Iona also joined.”
“Commander join the war?!”
“I want to prevent that, but after thinking about all the bad things that will happen, I get a pretty good idea.”
“A pretty good idea?” (Grild)
“Yes, we can make that kingdom owe us.”
“Once, it is a good idea.”
“I will act as usual, as a strategist, if something is out of control I will just intervene.”
“Vice commander, are we going to use the usual way?”
“Common way?” (Ritose)
“Ahhh, you don't know yet, yes. The usual way, spent the enemy witches after that attacking them. That's the usual way to do.”
“Once, if their core attackers are depleted it looks like their attacks will be dramatically reduced than they should be.”
“Yes. If you want, you can take part in the battle this time. I will not force, besides this is the right time to see the results of your training.”
“Good, I'll come with.”
“Good, we will use the usual plan. Kill an army of enemy witches and finish them off, if something is out of control or something else makes the ambush fail you must retreat.”
“Good.”
“Ritose, which team do you want to enter? The assassins or go with the squad leader?”
“Tasks of assassins what?”
“Executing enemy witches quickly without being detected. Once done, the assassin role ends and retreats.”
“Then if the team leader?”
“Executing the entire remaining enemy forces along with other warriors.”
“Then, I will go with the squad leaders only.”
“Good. Then it's decided. Famus, Laren, Grild, and Dirk, how fast can you get to Guil kingdom?”
“If no obstacle maybe about 2 days.” (Laren)
“But, since we will use almost the whole army, it will probably take 2 times-fold from it.” (Dirk)
“4 days, yes.”
“Hey, why are you smiling evilly like that? That's so disgusting. You must be thinking of something dirty.” (Lucy)
“M-where possible, never mind. We will leave tomorrow, I will wait for you in Guil kingdom, once you get there you can rest until there is further order.”
“Good.”
“Meeting today is finished. Then you can disperse.”
“Good.” They're all gone and it's just me and Lucy here.
“Then, within 4 days what will you do?”
“Hmmm, think of a plan.”
“Think of plans or spend time with princess.”
“T-no, not as you think.”
“Haaaa, now you're so predictable.”
“Yes, that's one of them. But my priority is to make a mature plan there.”
“You admit it, but why be there?”
“I don't know yet how many enemies there are in that place we will attack, and most importantly how many witches there are, I don't know. At least I want to get that important information from the higher-ups or not the king himself.”
“So. You're back as usual.”
“Because this concerns with Iona. I'll think of further plans there, today I want to rest first. Then, see you tomorrow.”
“Ya, see you.”
