Princess In Another World: New Story
44
“Haaaa, we have arrived. It's exhausting.” Using teleportation for the 4th time today reduced my stamina. Although my mana is unlimited, but still the stamina I have is limited.
“Wah, so this sky palace belongs to the heroes, yes. Extraordinary.”
“Iona, I want to go see Lucy.”
“Prince Lucy is here?”
“Iya, he also invites Ria not to be lonely he said.”
“Eh? Then, how about headquarters?”
“Your other friends are taking care of it, I'm sure Lucy has also told them important things they should do. In addition, I have also written what they should know, and if not they can not do it.”
“So.”
“Then I will go inside, you can take Risa-oneesama to get around this place.”
“Good.”
Library room.
“Lucy, how?”
“Haaaa, reading a book accompanied by a girl is indeed the best.”
“Hey, I asked about the thing you found here.”
“About that, yes. Since I can spend a lot longer here, I found a lot of things. Especially about forbidden magic.”
“Best magic?”
“Yes, magic that eliminates the existence of magic for mankind, then magic used to put the heroes to sleep, as well as magic that can destroy 1 continent easily.”
“Hooo, that's good.”
“But, yes. I just found it, it could or could not be used I don't know. I also don't know if this magic has a condition or not.”
“So’kah?”
“Lucy, this is a book you.. Ahh, a-there is a deputy commander, yes. S-since when did you come back? P-Prince, this is the book you're looking for.” (Male)
“Newly, and again behave as usual. I already know what your relationship has come to.”
“You peeking?”(Lucy)
“If I get caught I will be killed by you. Take it easy, I don't do anything like that. It's just, if you're like me that means your thinking isn't much different from mine.”
“Heh, so. Oh yeah Ari, after this can take me and Ria back?”
“You want to come back?”
“You did not forget’kan if we still have academy activities after this. Unlike me, you rarely get into the academy.”
“Hmmmm, true too. But, since my reputation seems to have been damaged by that incident, I just want to stop. If I want to continue my education, I will have more learning in other kingdoms besides that I hate the head of that academy.”
“Yes yes, I know how you feel. For that I won't interfere, it's your own personal business. But remember, after this take us home.”
“Iya. When you're done, just call me.”
“Good.”
Rest room.
“Haaaa, tiring. My stamina is drained.” I lay down in a long chair and rested.
“Ari, where have you been?” (Lion)
“Taking Lucy and Ria home.”
“So. I'll get you a drink, wait a minute, yeah.”
Some time later Iona returned with a drink.
“This is your drink.”
“Thanks.” I drank. “Haaaa, it feels very comfortable. Risa-oneesama where?”
“He's still driving around, he looks so enthusiastic. Because I don't want to bother him I let him alone.”
“So. Looks like she's happy.”
“I think so too, besides that this place is known only from a fairy tale. If it can be found it is natural to make people very human and also curious, what exactly the heroes make and what extraordinary things are in this place.”
“Yes, such a thing would indeed happen. Oh yeah, where are the others?”
“They are still sleeping, maybe because they are too excited to explore this place they are now exhausted.”
“Like that, yes. Then, what about you? Have you explored this place too?”
“I don't think I need to do that in a hurry, after all you said this place is already ours. So no need to rush to do it.”
“True also.” Sitting down, I slowly closed my eyes. “Haaaa, I never imagined a precious place like this would be mine. And again, this is the legacy of the hero given to me.”
“You should take care of it, properly’.”
“Yes, though so there's not much I can do. Mechanisms that exist in this house are almost all made of magic.”
“It is true, the plantation is behind, and also the equipment needed to work by itself. Even here is also filled with magic that always keeps this place clean. Looks like the hero is indeed very busy to not be able to take care of this place.”
“They use it as an aid to lighten their load. Their original task was to defeat the enemy, making something like this likely just something to fill their free time
“Hmmm, Ari don't you mind what my father talked about?”
“About wedding? No, I don't mind at all. After all, if it wasn't like that there would likely be bad rumors going around about you.”
“Bad rumors?”
“Yes, I just want to avoid it. If that happened, it was likely that the king could not do much. Therefore I do it.”
“So... Ari, why suddenly?”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“You said you'd be waiting for me, but isn't this too soon?”
I smile. “It turns out you're sensitive too, yeah. Yes, it was faster than I expected. At least my job is not done. But, yes I can finish it later.”
“Why did you do it?”
“Hmmmm, if you say so. Tell you what, I don't want to say. If this war is over I'll marry you, like that. That means I accept what will happen to me after that.”
“What happened to you after that?”
“Most people who say it will die on the battlefield, therefore I don't want to say it. At least that's what I know.”
“B-so.”
“Yes, though, I can't lie that it's too soon. At least I want to wait until you reach 19 years old.”
“What's really why? Father and mother married at the age of 15 years.”
“If you say that, is the war this time very dangerous?”
“They are a race that once tried to rule this world in the past and were stopped by heroes, if they came back again it would likely be very difficult to handle. In addition, because of the greed of humans at that time made the heroes do not want to help humanity anymore. That would obviously make things worse.”
“Once, yes.”
“To be honest, I doubt that even if all the kingdoms in this world unite will be able to overcome the attack of the demon king.”
“It means we have absolutely no chance of winning, yes.”
I seem to be saying something that makes his efforts look futile. “Not really, after all we have not been able to measure the strength of the demon lord's army. Since the demon lord has already been defeated before, I'm sure his strength won't be as strong as it used to be when the heroes defeated him. So chances are we can still have a chance of winning, even though it is quite difficult to get. Therefore Iona, your task this time is quite difficult but I believe you can do it. If you need help, I'll give you some help.”
“Thank you, I really appreciate it. But I want to try to do it myself. Of course, if I'm in trouble I'll ask for your help, but if I can solve it myself I'll do it.”
“Ya already, but remember do not force yourself.”
“Good.”
“Then, I'll take a nap. If everything's up, you can wake me up.”
“Ari..”.
“Huh?”
“Sini.” He patted her thigh.
“You how else.” I slept on his shoulder. “Haaaa, good sleep.”
Afternoon.
“Alright, this took quite a long time from what I imagined.” I overslept, and Iona did not wake me up as a result of the meeting that should have started this morning or noon could have started in the afternoon. “Haaaa, for the plan, the three of you will help Iona to negotiate. If you want to have a little knowledge about it, you can look for it in the library on the top floor.”
“Sorry, is our duty only help?” (Mary)
“Iya, for negotiation problems you can leave it to Iona. Then if something is bad.” I gave something to all of them including Iona. “Use this.”
“What is this? What kind of magic tool?” (Mail)
“Iya, I've given a little bit of my magic to that thing. That way I can know where you are and I can go directly there.”
“But wouldn't it be better to give it to 1 person? Why were we all given this thing?” (Mary)
“Please take it as a precaution, if only in the worst case one of you is kidnapped or disappeared I can know it immediately.”
“Once, this thing is quite useful as well.” (Paul)
“Remember, use that thing if you're in trouble or you're having trouble. You guys understand?”
“Good.”
“Then the kingdom that will be used as an alliance for this war I leave it to Iona. Iona, tell them.”
“Good. For the first kingdom, I will choose the kingdom of Ruens.”
“Sorry princess, but I don't think Thorwn has a good relationship with the kingdom of Ruens? Why did you choose the kingdom? If you may know, what's your reason for choosing that government. Besides from the news that I have heard, the Ruens kingdom was planning to attack Thorwn kingdom, if it wanted to make such an alliance with the kingdom that wanted to attack your kingdom first, if it wanted to attack your kingdom first, isn't that a little weird?” (Paul)
“I've thought about it, after all it's a mass occurrence. Leaning on it would change nothing but just add to the wound, it was the same as a person scratching his own wound. Besides, I need their famous army. Chances are it could be a start for us to be able to win the war against the demon lord.”
“Daughter, you plan to train the other royal forces using the methods that the Ruens kingdom uses, so?”
“Iya.”
“Why not use the usual training methods used by your special forces alone? Wouldn't their workouts be much more effective.”
“Paul, yes. Haaaa, you don't know how difficult the training will be given by the squad leaders. Besides, I'm sure ordinary troops won't be able to do the exercises. The only one who can do the exercise is the one who has the determination and he wants to protect something that wants to make him sacrifice their own lives for it. If the soldiers don't have that, then I'm sure they'll give up in less than half a day of practice
“S-fuse it?!”
“Iya, what Ari said is true. Therefore I choose to use the practice method belonging to the Ruens kingdom, for which I must successfully make that kingdom enter this alliance.”
“Then after that princess? Which kingdom will be your target after successfully making an alliance with Ruens kingdom?” (Mary)
“Then I have thought of all his plans.”
Nightfall.
Front terrace.
I'm sitting side by side with Iona right now. “I didn't expect you would prepare such a plan in quite a short time.”
“But how? Is the plan I made good?”
“The plan is good, but most importantly you have to succeed in inciting them into your alliance. That is his main purpose.”
“Yes, I understand. Ari, I want to ask when this plan should start?”
“Actually if it can be as soon as possible, but because next week we still have another event so for this week you can't do that.”
“Then, when can I start?”
“2 days after the party is finished, you can directly start the plan.”
“Eh, as fast as that?”
“Yes, why? Is it too soon? If so, you can decide the time by yourself.”
“K-then,1 week after party how?”
“1 weeks, yes. To be honest it was too long, but I guess that time could be used to refine some of the plans I made. All right, no problem.”
“Why are you even thinking about that?!!”
“Eh? M-why indeed? Is something wrong?”
“Honey month.”
“Honey month?”
“Next week we will be husband and wife, but you will be busy with your plans. Isn't that very annoying.”
“Hmmm, it turns out just that.”
“Only that? You make it look ordinary, it's a special thing to know. Why do you think it's as if it's a light thing.”
“Ahahaha, sorry-sorry.” Iona beat me up, even so she didn't really do it strongly.
“Basic, you're the.”
“Hmmmm, Iona do you like the ocean or the mountains?”
“Why did you suddenly ask like that?”
“Already, just answer.”
“If told to choose, I prefer the ocean. After all my kingdom is quite close to the beach, there is no reason for me not to like it. But, why are you suddenly asking that? What don't-don't..”.
“Haaaa, the air is getting cold. Let's go inside.”
“T-wait, don't ignore me.”
