episode_0125

A group of people walking slowly down a hallway.

At the very front of them, dressed in imperial military uniforms, was Gamul, who had been assigned to this task, standing with a cold expression on his face.

“This is it. Everyone, brace yourselves.”

“Yes.”

The place where the test subject he discovered through sorcery is hiding.

The fact that the inn was located in the middle of the system, rather than in a shabby warehouse or a cave deep in the forest, frankly surprised him, and the leader of the experimental group that had come here with him was also quite skeptical. ”

“Really… Is this the right place to be?”

“My spells have never been wrong. That guy is definitely in here, so be prepared to separate him and get him out.

“Ah.. Okay..”

The leader shows a nervous expression at Gamul’s words.

While doing so, Gamul began to roughly guess what the situation was like inside.

‘Is he hiding in a closet or something? Or maybe not…’

I heard that the test subject’s appearance was that of a young girl of about 3 to 4 years old.

Depending on the circumstances, it was possible that people who simply regarded the child as a nuisance had taken it in, and in Gamul’s current judgment, that was very likely.

‘It doesn’t matter. If you don’t listen to me verbally, I’ll just use public power.’

For this purpose, he accompanied a small group of imperial troops, and he decided to take action based on the judgment that there would be no factor that could disrupt the situation.

-“Knock knock knock.”-

“Yes.”

A voice is heard from inside as a slow knock is heard on the door.

Then the door slowly opened, and a girl who looked to be in her mid-teens walked out.

“Who are you?”

A girl with black hair looked at them with a puzzled expression. Gamuel looked at the girl and spoke to her in a stiff voice.

“I came from the Imperial Office. We will conduct a search to carry out official duties, so please cooperate obediently..”

“Don’t buy things.”

-“Bam!”-

“… .”

The girl who cuts him off and responds with a cold voice, then closes the door.

For a moment, everyone there, including Gamuel, were taken aback, but soon his expression hardened again and he began to knock on the door with more force than before.

“Open this door. We are not peddlers, but we are officially called by the Empire and are moving. If you do not cooperate, we may force you in.”

“This is an inn, right? Don’t disturb me while I’m resting, and go back quietly. ”

A girl speaking with such confidence on the topic of children.

At this, Gamuel felt his blood boil for a moment and spoke in a firm voice.

“I don’t think you’ll understand what I’m saying. Break it!”

“Okay.”

-“Bam!”-

The soldiers rushed in and started breaking down the door at his command.

It was a fairly luxurious inn, but at best it was a wooden door, so the soldiers could easily break it down and leave.

The soldiers and Gamuel who were forced into the room like that.

Before their eyes, a girl who looked to be in her mid-teens, the same age they had just seen.

And, a woman who appeared to be in her 20s and who seemed to be the guardian was sitting with her back to me without even turning her head towards me.

And.. what’s in between

A young child who looked to be about 3 or 4 years old that they were looking for..

It was the test subject in question.

“Found it. It was hiding in a place like this.”

“..uuuu… ”

“Wait a minute.”

The leader approaches the trembling little girl with a cold smile.

At that moment, looking at him like that, the girl with black hair who had treated them like peddlers at the door just now spoke in a stiff voice.

“What on earth are you guys doing? Where the hell do you think you are, coming in here and making such a fuss?”

“What the heck? How dare this little guy… Where did he come from…”

The leader of the experimental group shows a displeased expression at the girl’s sudden interruption.

At that time, looking at him like that, the girl spoke in a voice without even a hint of trembling.

“That’s what I wanted to say. Even though you’re conducting official business for the Empire, how dare you interrupt the Duke’s daughter’s rest like this without notice? The discipline of the Empire’s civil servants is truly pathetic.”

“Go..the Duke’s…youngae?..”

The leader of the experimental group began to show confusion at the unexpected words coming out of the girl’s mouth, and upon hearing those words, Gamuel also began to show signs of hesitation.

The reason I came here under the pretext of carrying out imperial business was simply to avoid being caught up in trivial matters.

However, if the person in front of him was really the princess, his preparations could actually be considered poisonous.

Under Imperial law, any official business involving a Marquis or higher nobleman required prior permission from the Padishah.

Since this is a matter directly related to the prestige of the nobles, it is an issue that cannot be carelessly ignored, and if not careful, it could even lead to friction with the high-ranking nobles in question.

So, if this person in front of them was really the princess, it meant that things could get very complicated for them.

“Yes..you..no, you are the Duke’s daughter?”

“How can I believe such words? How dare you impersonate a princess without fear… ”

“Sigh..”

Two people talking as if they were throwing a tantrum.

Looking at them, the girl made an annoyed expression.

at that time..

“Truly… What a bunch of annoying and shallow guys. How can those who are supposed to be carrying out the Empire’s official duties be so clueless?”

With those words, a woman in her 20s slowly got up from her seat and turned her head this way.

The moment I saw her face…

“! Heeeek!”

“Huh!”

“And then there’s the rudeness of closing the door and coming in without looking back… If the Padishah knew about this, he would be very sad.”

The faces of those who entered the room began to turn bright red with shock.

“! Da… You… Seriously.”

“Ma.. Maev.. Princess? How are you here..”

They just look pale at the fact that an unexpected being was here.

To this, Princess Maeb spoke with a cold and majestic voice.

“At least, it seems like they know who I am. Well… If the people who work in public office in this system don’t know that, they shouldn’t be fired, they should be beheaded right away.”

“I’m sorry, Your Highness. We… We never thought You would be here!”

“That’s right! We just received a report that a slave ran away here and…”

“We…we were just here to carry out our official duties. An accident just happened during the process, so please clear up any misunderstanding!”

From their perspective, Princess Maeb is a giant that they cannot handle.

Those who had broken down the door and barged in with such force finally realized what they had done, and they knelt on the floor and began to explain the situation without being asked.

The opponent is a woman with exceptional magical talent among the royal family members, and is also known as the most ill-tempered among the princesses.

Since they were in a position where they had to somehow resolve the misunderstanding and avoid her anger, they began to explain their position and the legitimacy of the current situation as best as they could.

and..

In response to their claims, Princess Maeb spoke to them slowly, releasing her magical power with the arrogance and majesty that was typical of a princess.

“Really? That means… you can interrupt this princess’s precious rest time just to find a single slave. Is that what you mean? This is truly disgusting. To hear from those in public office that the status of this imperial princess… and even more so, the status of the Padishah, the absolute monarch of this country, is nothing more than that.”

“! That..That’s..”

A princess who sends their logic to hell with just one word.

At this, they felt a chill down their spines and began to bow their heads while sweating profusely.

“! Ah.. No! I.. Absolutely not! I.. We made a huge mistake, Your Highness! ”

“Mu.. Please forgive my rudeness! Hwa.. I had no intention of disturbing the princess and the princess! ”

Princess Maeb’s words were filled with cold anger.

In response to this, Gamul and others began to make every effort to calm the princess down in an urgent voice.

And… while glaring at them, the princess continued speaking with a murderous intent, as if she wanted to cut off their heads at any moment.

“What nonsense excuses. I don’t want to hear any more. The crime of insulting the royal family cannot be taken lightly. Right here, right now, you guys…”

The princess began to pressure them with the tremendous magical power released along with those words.

At the same time, the face of those present began to completely lose color at the terrible sign of death.

at that time..
