95 – Civil War in the Kingdom (3)

The capital of the kingdom—even the portal in Caprilia is occupied by rebels.

Now all that remains is the palace.

The Imperial and Republic forces also joined the rebels and laid siege to the palace.

No matter how elite the Knights Templar are, there is no way to deal with such a difference in troops.

If Arianna is not an idiot, she will give up what she has to give up to some extent through conditional surrender, and will try to keep what she needs to keep.

That’s why we all thought this case was over.

“Boss, this is the letter from today.”

Since we provided supplies to the rebels, we received daily status reports.

As Benedetta was a deeply intertwined case, it was necessary to know how it worked even if you did not fight directly on the frontlines.

I opened the letter from Luisa and took out the paper.

I put it on the table so everyone can see it.

To be honest, it was a bit light-hearted because there was almost always only the news of victory.

“I fell into a demon, what is this….”

Benedetta continued to blink her eyes and quiver her lips.

The detailed reason is unknown, but most of the people inside the kingdom became demons.

The report said so.

It is not stated whether the royal family such as the king or Anianna also applies.

One thing is certain: the Royal Guard Knights became, in effect, the Asmodian Knights.

Due to the powerful magic of the demons, it seemed that the rebels had retreated because it was difficult to maintain the siege.

It’s not a joke, because the elite knights have fallen into demons….

“Benedetta, are you okay?”

She asked carefully, stroking her hair.

My complexion didn’t get any better.

If it’s natural, it’s natural.

She let out a sigh mixed with her resentment.

“Her sister seems to have thought that she could use the Demon Kingdom as well. It’s a choice she should never have made….”

Except for very few cases like Balbino, in general, demons are beings that must be eliminated unconditionally in this world.

It is not subject to compromise or negotiation.

In other words, if King Arianna or the King has fallen into a demon, she must be killed.

Eliane gave Benedetta a slightly sympathetic look.

Ellie Anne’s half-brother — Daniel had to die because she fell into her demon tribe, so it won’t feel like it’s someone else’s business for her.

To be honest, I didn’t expect to face a situation where the heroine’s family could be killed again.

Luisa asked me in a low voice.

“Boss, what would you like to do?”

“What do you think?”

“… I don’t want the young master to do anything dangerous.”

Since she was Louis, who always worried about me from the time she possessed me, it was a natural thought in a way.

She said as she stroked her hair.

“Still, I was able to come this far because of you.”

Feeling my touch on her, she gave a small smile.

I saw the faces of Benedetta, Elianne, Delia, Caitlyn, and Lena in turn.

And he said it like a declaration.

“We intervene.”

“”Yes.”” “Yes.”

Of course, we didn’t intend to go to the kingdom’s capital alone.

Because we have the hero Lando.

… I thought it might be the one and only achievement of Arianna.

Excavation of lando.

I immediately sent mail to the Red Tide Knights.

Please stop Lando’s field trip for a moment.

About three days after I sent it, I saw Lando’s face for the first time in a while.

“Joel!”

“How are you? Is it worth the tour?”

“Yes! He’s a bit strict, but there’s a lot to learn from him, and I like it!”

Even though it’s a knights’ order, it’s actually like an army.

… In other words, there are quite a few people who can’t adapt.

Lando, like the main character, didn’t have that kind of thing as expected.

“I followed the hero too!”

“Thank you, Amanda.”

Unlike before, she has gained weight, so she will become a great power.

Unfortunately, Kiara doesn’t have any fighting skills, so she should be in a safe place.

Now that the hero and the vampire lord have arrived, we all take up our weapons and head for the portal.

However, it did not move to the capital of the kingdom.

I went to another city outside the capital first.

“I didn’t know there was a secret passage in the middle of a city like this.”

That was what Elianne said when people arrived at a general store in a crowded market.

To be honest, I was a bit surprised too.

For some reason, there was an image that the end of the secret passage was in a certain forest.

“They said they purposely dug it here to get such a reaction.”

Benedetta said something like a password to the host.

She said the shop is practically owned by the royal family.

It seemed to be disguised by just using someone else’s name.

That’s why the clerk and the owner didn’t seem to be ordinary civilians either.

After hearing her password, the owner immediately led us to the warehouse located inside the store.

The owner pushed the floor tile hard with both hands, and the tile popped out.

“You can go in here.”

“There is always a lot of trouble.”

“No, Your Highness.”

The good news is that Arianna knows about this secret passage as much as she is a princess, but she didn’t pay attention to this side either.

I went down the underground passage leading to the palace without any problems.

… No, there was only one problem.

It is very old because it was made when the current royal palace was built.

It was more cramped than expected.

To the extent that they couldn’t stand and had to crawl in a line.

“Hey, Joel over there. I’ll be at the back.”

Saying that, Lando came behind me.

And sent my girls forward.

Ah, that’s right.

If you crawl forward in a row, of course you can see the inside of their skirts.

Therefore, I also changed my position and went to a different position from my usual position.

In order of Caitlyn, Luisa, Benedetta, Elianne, Delia, me, Amanda, and Lando.

“It’s hard, but it’s nice to see Delia’s ass from behind.”

“Joe Joel!”

“Don’t you want to show it?”

“That’s not true, but it’s embarrassing to say it so openly….”

He crawled along and teased Delia’s buttocks and her legs to his heart’s content.

Of course, Lando is also a man, so he touched his girlfriend, Amanda.

I continued to advance through the dark underground passage without any sense of time.

Even if it was a nearby city not too far from the royal capital, it took a long time because it was not walking, but crawling.

That said, it’s better than blindly breaking through the palace head-on.

Thump!

There was a knocking sound from the front.

“Evil! It hurts!!”

Catlin, who was in the vanguard, shouted.

… Apparently, looking at the situation, she arrived at the palace and her way was blocked, but she didn’t see it and just hit her head.

“Are you okay, Caitlyn?”

“I think something will happen….”

“I’ll give you a call later.”

I said it like a joke,

“Gee, really?”

He responded in a tone that was subtly tempting.

Surprisingly, do you really like that kind of thing?

Benedetta said to Caitlin.

“There will be a handle on top. Pull it hard and release it and it will open.”

She spoke as if she had only listened to it, but this was the first time she was using it.

It’s an emergency passage, but there aren’t many emergency situations that the royal family has to evacuate.

Caitlyn moved her body as Benedetta said.

It’s hard to hold her by the handle when she’s on her face, so I turn over and lie on her back.

The tiles bounced like when the general store owner opened it.

Caitlyn carefully put her head up her hole and looked around.

“No one.”

“Then go up carefully one by one.”

“Yes.” “”Yes.””

We all went through the hole.

Looking around, it looked like a poorly used storage room filled with dust.

Benedetta asked, turning her head towards her.

“Should I go find Obama first?”

“Yes.”

Rescue the king from Arianna’s captivity.

Above all, the goal was to confirm whether the king had also become a demon.

In the end, the only person who can destroy Arianna’s cause is the king.

Caitlyn, who was in the vanguard, opened the storage room’s wooden door and looked outside.

She immediately closed her door and said with her eyes wide open.

“All demons.”

In fact, as soon as we came here, we felt it too.

A bleak sense that can only be felt from demons.

It was according to the report that most of the people inside the kingdom had become demons.

Benedetta closed her eyes once.

She clutched her main weapon, the staff, with her two hands.

The people here must be people she has known since her childhood.

But they all became demons.

If you want to win the fight against Arianna, you have no choice but to kill them all with your own hands.

“Sir Joel, could you please comfort me later?”

“You can do it many times, not just once.”

“Thank you.”

Benedetta threw the door open.

Then, she fired flames at the palace people who had been corrupted by her demons.

Fire, blue flames covered their bodies.

We also came out of the warehouse and joined them.

It’s been a while since I saw Lando’s knife.

As if he had been properly trained by the Red Tide Knights, his sword skills had noticeably improved.

“His Highness Benedetta, why do we—”

“I sold my country because I was crazy about men, but now—.”

“Two princesses are fighting, why do we—”

We hit the bodies of the members of the royal family who had fallen into demons, pouring out various words without hesitation, with magic bullets one after another, piercing them with spears, cutting them with swords, and breaking them off with magic.

At their unwilling will, Benedetta bit her lip.

I continued running to the king’s bed.

Among the people wandering around this place, there wasn’t a single person who wasn’t a demon.

I felt a bit uneasy, wondering if even the king had fallen into a demon.

“This is where Obama usually sleeps.”

Blood dripped from Benedetta’s mouth.

It looked like it was a wound from biting my lip.

As if she noticed my gaze, she said with her wry smile.

“Blood is not tasty as expected.”

“Yes.”

I grabbed her face and bent her back.

I cupped her lips and sucked a little of her blood.

“Still, if you have to eat, wouldn’t it be less painful if you share it?”

Instead of answering, she leaned into my arms and hugged me.

She stroked her light purple hair.

She doesn’t know if the existence of me can be a solid support for her, but she wondered if she could become a person she can lean on in times of trouble.

She opened the door to her bedroom with her.

Will the king be all right?

She got nervous as she stepped into the bed.

“Benedetta!”

“Abama… !!”

The king was sitting on the bed and writing in his diary.

Fortunately, he didn’t fall into a demon, judging from the fact that he didn’t even have a bleak feeling.

The worst was averted.

He looked at my face and said quietly.

“Long time no see, son-in-law.”

“Ah yes, Your Majesty.”

… I was surprised to suddenly recognize me as Benedetta’s husband.

Did you change your mind after being locked up by Arianna?

Benedetta informed the king of the current situation.

It was an instant for his expression to distort.

Then he got up and came closer to me.

“I’m sorry, son-in-law.”

The king bowed deeply to me.

I never thought he would do this to me.

“Originally, I also wore a crown to heal the decaying kingdom. But then it disappeared. The reality is that it can’t be helped.”

He added that his ugliness was revealed through Arianna.

It seems that while he was confined, he regained his original intentions and really changed his mind in many ways.

I wonder if it was shock therapy for him in its own way.

“Son-in-law, please. Kill the demons here, all the ugliness of my past.”

He nodded once.
