Story of The Ancient Demon King!

According to Count Sealy Shawk, the handsome archer bandit is out of the blue. You're going to shoot through the vigilantes you hired in the dark with your clever bow, steal the gold and go away as fast as the wind.

And apparently, there are rumors that this Mansion will be targeted soon.

"... I understand."

"Yes, so please be careful how courageous you say the prestigious Princess of the Kingdom of Light. If anything happens to you, I can't face His Majesty. You must stay away from this mansion for a few days."

Erica meditated and thought slowly to Shirley, who was telling her seriously while making her face shine with oil.

"... I won't have to. But I can't overlook it."

"Your Highness!

"If there is only one other person, the escort..."

Turn your gaze toward Hakto standing behind you.

"... this child and I will never lose."

"... that might be... yes, but..."

Erica herself is very good at Wu's skill, and the boy chosen to escort her must be quite good.

"In the meantime, I'll show my face for the night security as soon as I can. Start today."

"And, Your Highness is not a security guard!!

Erica stood up and put her sword back to her waist.

And then she pardoned Shirley, who was rushing to recruit...

"... that?... is it shaking?

The moment Hakt quickly opened the door to the room... the mansion swayed slightly.

Something slightly like a heavy bass can also be heard.

"... I'm sorry. Currently, the Mansion contains a fierce beast who was rampaging around the territory....."

"... why are you doing that?

Hakt and Erica don't like killing, but if it's a dangerous beast, they think it should be exterminated without taking it home.

"Even if it's a beast... it's a beast."

"Count, did you call the Beast?

Erica glanced at Sealy with her frustrating voice.

Shirley was scared as she sprayed her sweat into the eyes of a certain talented man.

"Forgive me... I couldn't stay calm, either, because I was attacked by my people and... my men."

"... that's right... But be careful, okay? As holders of the throne of the Kingdom of Light, it is strictly forbidden to contempt the race.

"Ha, and I'll carve it into my chest."

After sticking a nail in Sealy with her head down, she paid a little attention to the beast and said to the Count without thinking about it in particular.

"... where is that beast?

♢♢♢

It was a staircase leading to the basement.

The moisture is terrible and the warm, dry air on your cheeks is uncomfortably sticking to your skin.

"Here it is.... are you sure? Please be careful, too. Because I'm a very violent and dangerous person."

"I already know."

As you descend the darkly closed staircase, Sealy, with a flame of pine light, again calls attention in front of the door.

After confirming Erica's understanding, she opens the door and leads to the back.

The rear hatch first wondered why there were so many such large cages in the basement of the Earl's Mansion.

But the Count didn't ask for a guardian, so I decided to shut up and guard the back.

And the Count stands in front of a cage. Keep a distance far enough...

There were two guards sitting in the chair, standing and saluting as they saw the Count and the Princess jumping.

"... this one."

Although dark and unrecognizable in its entirety, I can see long hair with beautiful light blue honey in the corners of the flashy distorted cage everywhere.

Looks like she's squatting like she's holding herself.

I did have a sharp ear on my head, and I was able to confirm that I was a beast.

"... hey. What's your name?

"Nh! No, Your Highness!

One of the guards hurried to rough up his voice as he approached Erica as he drowned in a cage of blood.

The next moment, the iron cage was fucked.

In the cage, I kicked the beast so he could play.

"Hmm!?

The beast's strength added another distortion to the robust iron cage.

Erica couldn't react to the speed, and Hakt also felt a bad feeling in the guard's voice and pulled Erica back, but she didn't react at all.

In the cage, the beast back in the corner was listening to our gap with thin blue eyes as sharp and pointed as a blade.

Feed your throat a thousand times.

"No, I'm sorry. Now, let's get back to it. It's still dangerous here."

"Uh-huh...."

Among the beasts I have encountered so far, I was not able to succeed to the two sentences by the extraordinary instantaneous force, and I left the ground as the Count said.

♢♢♢

After Erica and the others left the Mansion, Sealy walked quickly through the Mansion with her old butler, who was escorted to the front door.

Show off your moody mood.

"Shit! It depends on... Tomorrow at last!

"I wonder if they sniffed me."

"Ghihi, Ghihi... Shit, no, it's just a little earlier than usual.... that foolish king would have just appropriately assigned a job to the wasted princess. Probably not...."

Sealy is short-hearted after a short walk. The butler is the same age as Sealy, but unlike him, he has a muscular and calm face.

Finally, he arrived at his room and entered through the door that the butler quickly opened.

"We're almost there. Everyone gets in the way..."

That's Erica Wright, the second princess. You have a pretty face. I can be instigated ~......

"Hmm!? Nalsius, are you here?!

A man with black brown skin and white lips sat relaxed on the sofa.

Relax in front of the noble Shirley without permission from the owner of the Mansion.

Speaks to the butler with a little fat man who instantly pulls his face into fear and shows a cautious attitude, holding his face in the mirror.

"Mahhhh. We arrived early. I promise tomorrow, but if you're ready, I'll take it."

The man, dressed in tight clothes, says in a winky, jumping tone.

"Well, there's one more person scheduled to arrive from this afternoon to the evening, yeah. I thought it might still take a while....."

She rubbed her hands on her face with sweat paint and talked while asking about her mood.

Behind his sluggish demon behavior, knowing that this man is a mighty man, there is always a sense of tension that the blade is pointing at his neck.

"Oh, I don't mind. The taxi came early."

"No, haha, the boulder is Narcissius. Thank you for your generosity.... so, um..."

Narcissius stood up and walked in a catwalk to confirm the promise of a fearful reward.

"Ugh!

Hold the two from the front and whisper in your ears.

"Ufufu, I'm not that scared. It's all right. We'll keep the promise for this one. I'll... let you be one of the guys in the cab."

Distorting your mouth with evil malice, soaking in greed, dragging you into the darkness without an exit...

Like a demon...

Having left the Earl's Mansion, Hakt and Erica were looking around to feel the glamorous atmosphere of the city.

"This is out of the reach of that [Night Walker]. Besides, this city is moist, so it must have been nice."

[Night walkers].

An unidentified monster, it is said to drag bandits and bandits into the darkness of the night and mercilessly kill them. There are no survivors or witnesses, and it is rumored that it is not a brave man in some parts of the Wright Kingdom.

"Hmm, I can only stay in this city for a little while, and I hope you'll come in the meantime...."

……

Even I want to get rid of the bandits, but Erica is deeply troubled by the princess's initiative to fight.

Besides, it's very troublesome this time.

A weapon that thieves are good at is a bow.

In this world where the advantages and disadvantages of distance are obscured (ambiguous) by no amount of magic, shooting with arrows is still not so easy to deal with.

If you're surprised, it's too late.

"Stay in the Mansion until the bandits show up, please. If you are the first target, you will not be fashionable."

Eh ~

"It's not. If you can't protect it, I can't allow it. If I spoil you again, what will you tell me this time, Your Majesty and Master Celeste...."

"... when you were a sister, you'd be happy."

……

It seems that childhood habits (familiarity) are also very troublesome.

Hakuto, who was mixed with his sigh, was also stuck with a bitter face.

"... the best thing is to find out before the raid. That way, at least we can get ahead."

"It's too obvious that we're distracted... but that's right. We need to get some information on Ajito. I don't think we'll ever run into each other on the side of the road...."

"You won't notice where we met in the first place."

"That's right. Uhhhh...."

In front of such brave men and princesses,

"Whoa, were you really there? Hey, guys, don't you want a guide? I'll play a part in this handsome game."

A young man with a bow tells a dramatic story with dark green long hair in his middle.

……

The two face each other at the same time.

And then...

There is one person who looks down at it from the height of the building.

♢♢♢

... you made it.
