Princess Cannabi’s younger sister’s bombshell statement was just beginning.

    “Help me.”

    “Yes? Help?”

    “I’m going into the labyrinth!”

    The moment I heard that, I hit my forehead!

    “I cannot help you with that kind of help.”

    “You said I have to go into the labyrinth to treat my sister. So why won’t you cooperate?”

    “The labyrinth is something that even trained soldiers can’t withstand. What if the young princess goes into the labyrinth and something goes wrong? Princess Kanabi will be angry when she hears the news.”

    It would be a much better thing to do to help organize the people who will enter the labyrinth.

    “Huh, follow me! I don’t think you’ll believe me unless I show you, so I’ll show you.”

    What are you showing?

    The little princess’s confidence was making people even more scared.

    “Where are you going?”

    “Follow me without saying a word.”

    “… … .”

    I couldn’t not go since he told me to follow him, so I decided to follow him for now.

    She came out of the temple and entered the increasingly dark forest.

    “Why on earth am I here…?”

    “Because no one should be watching.”

    Are you saying you’re going to go to a secluded place where there’s no one and hit me?

    A sigh escaped me at the little princess’s wickedness.

    As the footsteps following her became increasingly heavier, the little princess finally stopped.

    “That’s it. This is just right.”

    Next to the little princess was a rock larger than her body.

    The girl smiled happily and patted the rock with her hand.

    “This is a labyrinth that even trained soldiers couldn’t endure, but I came here to show you that it’s possible. What you’re about to see is a secret of our royal family, so keep it to yourself. Do you understand?”

    I don’t really want to know the secrets of the royal family.

    I wanted to tell her that I had to show her, but I couldn’t because I thought that if I did, the little princess would take revenge on me directly.

    “No matter how young I am, I am not foolish enough to insist that something should be done. I did not grow up in a flower garden like that. There was a reason for all this.”

    The little princess clenched her fist and struck the rock.

    “Sleep… !”

    I tried to hurriedly stop him, thinking he might get hurt, but the little princess’s hand struck the rock hard without hesitation.

    What would happen if you swing a small fist?

    Isn’t it just my hands that are hurting?

    BANG!!

    But to my ears, the only time I heard a sharp sound was when something hard hit something hard.

    At the same time, the sight that unfolded before my eyes was the same.

    “????”

    “Huh!”

    A rock that crumbles down.

    It splits into two pieces, then into many smaller pieces that roll around on the floor.

    Since a large rock would not have split apart suddenly without being hit, it meant that it was the princess’s fist that did it.

    “Strength…what…?”

    Did the little princess play a trick on me?

    Like hitting a rock that has already been split and tricking others… .

    ‘That can’t be true.’

    I saw with my own two eyes the rock that had been fine until just a moment ago.

    So the sight unfolding before my eyes could not have been a lie.

    “Our royal blood is special. When you are born into the royal family, you are born with a special ability. I was born with this power. As I grow, my power grows stronger. And with this power, no monster in the labyrinth will be able to defeat it.”

    So you decided to enter the labyrinth because you believed in something.

    It was fortunate that I didn’t make a reckless decision without thinking, but that didn’t mean I could accept the request for help.

    “Strength alone is not enough to kill a monster.”

    “Do you think you haven’t trained the strength your bloodline gave you? You can win with just one finger. Do you want to try?”

    It was something I could have known without having to experience it myself.

    A girl’s finger alone is enough to make you cum? There are so many!

    Eventually I decided to change the subject.

    “… May I ask what kind of help you would like from me?”

    I guess you’re asking for help in persuading Princess Canabi?

    “I’m going to create my own party to enter the labyrinth!”

    “But?”

    “I want you to be my party member.”

    “… … .”

    What kind of novel request is this?

    “Have you forgotten that I am Princess Cannabi’s personal therapist?”

    “I know. That’s why I trusted you and asked you to become my colleague.”

    “If I leave, Princess Canabi will have a hard time.”

    I thought Princess Canabi wanted to hide it, but I told her honestly because I thought it wouldn’t be easy to convince her without telling her the truth.

    “How can I leave my seat when I have to provide treatment several times a day?”

    But would she readily believe him if he entrusted it to another priest?

    It also took a long time to build trust with me.

    Other priests will find it even more difficult to accept.

    It was not something that Princess Kanabi, who was already weak, could endure mentally.

    “I have a way.”

    “Are you trying to call another priest to treat me instead?”

    “My sister doesn’t trust anyone. She wouldn’t like it if you brought in another priest.”

    Perhaps because she was my younger sister, she seemed to know Princess Kanabi better than I did.

    But I don’t understand why someone who knows that so well would take me into a labyrinth.

    “Is that so?”

    The princess, who had been speaking without hesitation until now, hesitated.

    “Our royal family has a special medicine that can only be used by the royal family.”

    Is this a panacea?

    No, if that were the case, you wouldn’t have asked me to go into the labyrinth with you.

    “A drug that stops the body for a certain period of time.”

    “!!”

    Stopping the body’s intelligence would also halt the progression of the curse.

    “How long can you stop?”

    “There’s one pill for you and one pill for me. Each pill can stop one year.”

    “Then, a total of 2 years.”

    Find and kill the monster in the labyrinth within two years.

    ‘Wouldn’t it be better to spend two years searching through a labyrinth to find and kill monsters than to find a cure on the bare ground?’

    No, you shouldn’t think so positively.

    Shouldn’t we prepare for the case where it doesn’t work out?

    So I thought it would be a good idea to try both.

    “It’s a precious medicine that only one member of the royal family can use. My plan is to kill him and lift my sister’s curse within a year. If my sister brings a trustworthy and skilled priest, the success rate will be much higher.”

    The little princess seemed to know where the monster lived, so she expected that she would be able to catch it within a year.

    To be honest with the little princess who is optimistic about the situation, two years won’t be enough.

    ‘What I said to Princess Canabee was also unreasonable.’

    I couldn’t even tell the little princess.

    “This is not something I can decide on my own. I need the permission of Princess Kanabi and the permission of the church.”

    “I will pay a sufficient price to the Holy Empire. And to you, of course. On the honor of the Empire. On my own, Lesiel!”

    The little princess’s name was Princess Rasiel.

    “So please, come into the labyrinth with me.”

    I understand the circumstances, but my doubts are not completely resolved.

    “I’m sorry, but that doesn’t fully answer my question. It would be much easier to take other priests, so I wonder why you insist on taking me by using up all the potions.”

    Since they probably didn’t know that the paths in the labyrinth had changed yet, it would have been normal for them to leave me here and take another priest to hunt monsters.

    “… You just won’t let it go.”

    Princess Rasiel glared at me with resentment at my question.

    “Isn’t this something that’s life-threatening?”

    “I will protect you no matter what! Ugh, if I were to tell you about that problem, I would have to tell you about the imperial family’s corruption… .”

    Why does that royal family have so many secrets and corruption?

    “It’s already so tangled up that it can’t be helped, so just tell me.”

    I already know how much of a mess that family is.

    “… Yes. It would be unfair to hide it when you asked me to take a risk. The reason I had to retreat without catching the monster was because of interference from internal spies. ”

    “!!”

    “The reason my sister suffered in the first place was because of internal traitors. If it weren’t for those guys, my sister wouldn’t have been cursed. Someone is always trying to kill my sister. That’s why we need someone we can trust.”

    It seemed that the force that had approached me was still harassing Princess Kanabi.

    I didn’t know that they would use their hands to fail in the second expedition.

    “… … .”

    I also understood why the princess insisted on taking me as a member of her team.

    “How are you going to save other people?”

    “My childhood friends are coming here. I can trust them. Of course, that doesn’t mean I’m completely off guard.”

    The situation was indeed complicated.

    There is nothing more deadly than a traitor within.

    Since she keeps ruining things with internal traitors, it would be better for her to take action and side with the clear-cut Princess Canabi.

    ‘I had to persuade him to stop, but somehow I ended up being the one who persuaded him.’

    It also meant that Princess Canabi’s circumstances were not good enough for her to have to rely on that girl.

    Eventually I gave what was almost like permission.

    “If you give permission from the Holy Empire and Princess Kanabi, I will enter the labyrinth with you.”

    “Really?”

    “Yes. Just make sure you are well prepared. If you try to enter with half-baked preparations, you will be rejected.”

    I hope that since I have developed a deep friendship with Princess Canabee, I will not die in vain, consumed by the curse.

    “Of course! Don’t worry!! I’ll prepare properly and come back. Wait until then!”

    It won’t be easy to persuade Princess Canabi, and it won’t be easy to negotiate with the Holy Empire to get me into the labyrinth.

    Moreover, it won’t be easy to form a team without internal traitors.

    Because even if you know the depth of ten feet of water, you don’t know the heart of a person one foot deep.

    However, Princess Rasiel was full of motivation, perhaps because she thought she had to save her older sister.

    It seemed like he would quickly finish the work, get permission, and come see me.

    of course.

    ‘Reality is cold.’

    As I expected, Princess Rasiel’s plan encountered many difficulties.
