Princess In Another World: New Story
50
Nightfall.
“Haaaa, beautiful night.” I enjoy the night outside. “The star shines very bright.” Whether there is where this palace is located but certainly the view of the stars in the sky tonight is very stunning. “Lying here grass and enjoying a quiet night is indeed best.”
“Ari.”
“Iona, you're up.”
He came closer and sat down beside me. “Ari, how are you? Does anyone hurt?”
“I'm fine, thanks for taking care of me.”
“I am your wife, taking care of you has become my duty.”
“True too. Haaaa..”.
“Ari, what's up?”
“Nothing.”
“You're lying, if you're sighing means there's something you want to talk about.”
“You're like someone who can read my mind.”
“I've been with you for a very long time, I know all your nature and your behavior much better than anyone.”
“Yes yes, I understand.”
“Then, what's the problem?”
“Means interracial alliance, it doesn't seem to go according to what I imagined.”
“You mean the interracial alliance you mentioned?”
“Yes, after hearing how much they hate humans, I thought a little that this interracial alliance would not go according to plan.”
“Ari..” Iona approached and put me to sleep on her thigh. “You once said, don't give up before you do. You should try it first, isn't that what you told me. If it fails, use another way, if another way fails then use another way again. So, don't give up until the last blood point.”
“Truely too, it looks like I'm too soon to give up.”
“I'll support you.”
“Thanks. By the way, how about you? Is everything going well?”
“Iya, although there is a little obstacle but we managed to overcome it.”
“Trouble?”
“There are some who refuse, and there are also some who disagree because they do not believe, but after convincing them that all this is real they agree. Currently, in addition to the 7 royal alliances ever made before.”.
“Iona, the goal of the 7 kingdoms alliance is different from the alliance we form now.”
“Eh? Really?”
“Yes, if not wrong. The 7 royal alliances were formed to overcome the attacks of the previously heated Victorian kingdom, and also as an aid alliance if one of the kingdoms was in a crisis. Then, the purpose of this alliance was to fight the demon lord, arguably as saving the world from destruction. Therefore, in this alliance we need many kingdoms that can join this alliance. You can also invite the 7 kingdoms of the previous alliance to join, of course if you want you can also invite an alliance to the kingdom of Victoria.”
“But that kingdom made you..”.
“At this time the future of the world is at stake, because only the past you want to make the world destroyed and have no future? You don't want that to happen, do you. If that happens, then children who should have a bright future will have a bleak ending. If they were still alive in the future, I'm sure they would desperately fight just to survive. Therefore, Iona. You may be selfish, but in this case your selfishness will probably kill a lot of people, therefore for now even though you don't like it you should do it.”
“Good, I understand.”
“Ari, it turns out you're here.” (Lucy) Lucy came here.
“Prince, what's up?”
“There was a change of plans.”
“Change plans? Lucy, what happened?”
“Hmmm, tomorrow we have arrived at the kingdom of Drawf.”
“Eh? Tomorrow.” I was quite surprised to hear that. “Why can it be that fast?” But, on second thought I realized something. “Rain yesterday, yes.”
“Iya, however this sky palace drifts and although it looks heavy the sky can make it move faster than it should.”
“Haaaa, I should still have 1 more day to relax. But, because tomorrow this palace has arrived above the kingdom of Drawf, how else. Oh yes Iona, when are you going to head to the next kingdom?”
“Besok.”
“Why?”
“You said that there is no more time, the time we have is less than 3 months. Therefore I want to do it quickly.”
“True too. Oh yes, if the kingdom is too far away you can ask Dravin for help, if only 4 Dravin can take you, but the possibility of speed is not like carrying 1 or 2 people.”
“Good, thanks for the suggestion.”
“This is getting colder, we'd better get inside.” (Lucy)
“Ya.”
“Ahh, Iona you can go in first I want to talk to Lucy for a minute.”
“Good, I will wait for you on the 3.” floor
“Ya.” Iona's gone.
“Then, what do you want to talk to me about?” (Lucy)
“This is something quite important that I have to tell you.”
--------------
Tomorrow.
A bright morning, maybe.
“Hmmm, a little cloudy but it doesn't seem like it doesn't matter.” This morning, from up here I could already see a great kingdom and it was likely the kingdom of Drawf.
“Ari, are you leaving?” (Lion)
“Yes, however, this palace continues to move if it lingers the possibility that I will be further away from the kingdom of Drawf.”
“Then, passion and good luck.”
“Ya, you too.” After taking a deep breath for a moment, I then jumped down from the sky palace directly towards right into Drwaf kingdom.
A few minutes after that.
“Huft, slightly smooth landing.” I landed better than before, even so I turned out to jump a little further from the Drawf kingdom. “Haaa, it looks like I have to exercise a little this morning.”
Long enough after that.
I've arrived. “Woow, big too.” The walls surrounding this kingdom are huge, bigger than I thought. “Aaah, I don't have time to be amazed. I have to focus.” I started walking towards the entrance gate of the Drawf kingdom.
As always. “What do you want, what is your purpose to come here!!”
The guards from this kingdom intercepted me when I wanted to enter. “I want to find a place to stay, I am a trader.”
Yeah, I didn't prepare anything like that, but. “I left my belongings due to being attacked by demons, but fortunately I still carry money and other important items.” I showed you my merchant card. “See this, I'm really a trader, right.”
“So, if it is true like that apologize for the sassness. Before that, are you sure that the one who attacked you was the devil?”
“Yes, I'm very sure. I kept passing and came to this kingdom. I want to take shelter for a while in this kingdom, although it has been attacked by monsters often but the attacks of the demons that make me quite traumatized.”
“Good, you can enter. You, quickly tell the leader about this.”
“Good.”
I entered casually without having to go through the fight. ‘Begini better. Besides..’
Nights yesterday.
“Lucy, what do I look like?”
“Common humans who have a mysterious impression.”
“You can use magic, right. How about you check it using magic to measure’ku.”
“Haaaa, fine. Even so, I'm not very good at magic. So I can't be sure. All I need to do is use the measuring magic, right.”
“Iya.”
“Then..”.
“See what I look like?”
“Hmmm, monsters with enormous power.”
“Once, yes.” I thought the elves were saying monsters because of what humans had done to them before, but it turned out that I was wrong. “Lucy, do you have anything magic that can withstand this power?”
“Hold your great power does not exist, but if only hide can. I read it, a magic that can hide a person's magic power, I'll give you the book later, you can read it.”
“Thanks.”
“Ya, no problem.”
Today.
“Haaaa, I never thought I could make it.” My magic power is hidden, right now it is likely that I already look like a helpless ordinary human, besides. “This place is really amazing.” I felt like that after seeing the large and tall building that was here. I was so impressed that I forgot my purpose in coming here. “Alright, time to focus.” My goal is to meet the king of the kingdom of Drawf. Even so, I think this is the same as the Dwarven kingdom in the manga, the race that mastered blacksmithing but I never thought this was so different. “Looks like I can learn a lot from them. Ahhh, focus.”
A while after that.
“Hmmm, okay. Time to start.” Because of the many races, the Drawf race still has a close relationship with the heroes.
The heroes used to disguise themselves as merchants to enter this kingdom, but when it happened there was chaos and inevitably they saved this kingdom from the chaos. Unlike the human race, the Drawf race respected the heroes who helped them, and therefore they also respected the merchants who came in here. Yeah, at least that's what I read from the heroes' notebooks.
I continued walking and without me noticing I arrived at this royal square.
“Patung heroes.” Here, right in the middle of this square there are 7 statues of heroes complete with the weapons they use. “So that's the face of grandfather when he was young, yes.” Although not sure it looks like or not, but I feel that that's the face of the hero grandfather when he was young. “He's very cool.” Looks dashing and also cool, I admire him even though just by looking at his statue. From his statue alone it is seen that he has an authority to lead other heroes. “It looks like it will be very difficult for me to be like.” Finally, for the first time I have someone I can admire.
“Ahh, son. What are you doing here?” (??)
A familiar voice to me sounded, I turned around and looked at him. “Kakek.” The one who called me was a hero grandpa. “What is grandpa doing here? I think grandfather disappeared or vanished.”
“Aah, sorry for leaving not to say anything. I was just filling my spare time, I wanted to see another face when I was young. It turns out I used to tanpan too, yes.”
“So grandpa's face used to be like that?”
“Haaaa, this nation is indeed very great in terms of making things very similar. I think this nation was a nation that could only manage blacksmiths it turned out I was wrong to expect it. This nation is greater than I could ever imagine.”
“So, I also had time to think like that. But after seeing all this, I realized that the Drawf race was not the Dwarf race.”
“Hahahaha, it turns out that you think the same as me. I used to think it was just language, or a mispronunciation. It turns out they are indeed a different race.”
“Different gas?”
“Ahhh, the Dwarves have a smaller territory and a remote place, while the Drawf, as you can see now. Their area of power is quite wide, although so this may be 20% before humans master it.”
“Grandfather, I want to ask you about the real history.”
“Real history? It's not all in the library.
“I've read it, but I don't think it's because of that. When I went to the place where the elves were, even though I offered them help, they accepted. It even seemed like they had a very deep hatred towards the human race itself. That, in no way explained in the book.”
“So that made a barrier in the forest of the elves is you, yes. If it is like that I am no longer surprised.”
“Grandpa?”
“Regarding that, how about we talk about it in a slightly quiet place.”
“Good.”
A while after that.
We arrived at a quiet and quiet place. After that, we sat down on the seat that was here.
“Haaaa, I don't have the strength to walk anymore. This old old body limits all the activities I want to do, this sucks.”
“Then grandfather, can tell me what really happened first, exactly 500 years ago. The beginning of why other races can hate humans to such an extent.”
“Actually, the beginning of the hatred of the races to humans it has its own reasons.”
“Because by itself? That means not only because their territory is captured, but it means there are still other reasons.”
“Yes, seizing the dominion is one of the roots of this problem. If only we had realized it first, maybe things wouldn't be like this.”
“Aware?”
“All living things have greed and gluttony, but humans who only have a short life even have an unusually large gluttony and can not be pent up. You know what happened when the expansion of power for the human kingdom first?”
“No, it is also not explained in the book. There are only humans doing significant territorial expansion until they seize territory from other races. Just like that.”
“Man kills them, children and women of other races are sold and made into slaves. Isn't that so cruel.”
“Iya.” Just hearing it gave me goosebumps, I didn't think that humans in this world would do such a thing.
“Everything starts from the elves, the nation that helps heroes like us defeat the demon lord.”
“Nation elves also participated?”
“Yes, long ago although not appreciated by the human race but the elves have great respect for the heroes. But, an incident happened.”
“Attacks against the elves, yes. I read it, the story of the heroes who attacked the elves due to orders from the king.”
“Actually that's not what happened.”
“Not it?”
“It was just an undisclosed history because the reality was so painful. I wanted to forget it, but 500 years had passed until now the memory remained attached to me. That big sin, haunting me.”
“Sorry grandfather, even so I want to know about it. Grandpa, can you tell me?”
“What happened actually was, 500 years ago.”
