Chapter 6: The Princess’ Request
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Oh, no! Now that you mention it, why haven’t you returned yet?!”
Lifa exclaimed in a cute way.
She raised her head, and a trace of confusion crept into her clear eyes.
As the princess of the kingdom, she had read all kinds of magic books ever since she was young. Of course, she knew something about the Abyss Summoning forbidden spell too.
Normally, because the creature was summoned from the Abyss, it did not belong to this world. Therefore, it would only stay in this world for an hour before returning to its original world.
However, an hour had already passed.
And the young man was still standing there in front of her.
Facing Rennes’ helplessness, Lifa was very surprised.
“Maybe… maybe the Abyss has forgotten about you. I’m sorry, I don’t know how to solve this problem!”
Lifa said apologetically.
The next second, she suddenly mustered up her courage, her eyes lit up slightly as she said, “Brave warrior, if you have nowhere to go, why don’t you stay in the Noah Kingdom for a period of time? Right now, the kingdom is facing internal and external problems and is extremely fragile. I’m willing to offer you the best gifts in the kingdom, even if it’s… myself, the princess!”
When she said the last few words, her voice was as soft as a mosquito, and she blushed furiously.
“You…?”
It was rare for Rennes to lose his composure. Although he had been in many relationships, he had never been with a princess before!
But speaking of which, were all the girls in this alternate world so bold?
Lifa had a somewhat youthful face, but her elegant body was already fully developed. When Rennes looked at her, a strange thought suddenly formed in his mind.
He could not stop himself from nodding and answering, “Okay!”
…..
At the same time, on another land tens of thousands of miles away from the Noah Kingdom.
It was a rich and prosperous land. The light from the Temple of the City in the Sky shone on this place day and night.
It was the capital of the Raytheon Empire, Giantstone City!
The forbidden area at the deepest part of the capital was enveloped in an endless magic energy. The most honorable Archmage of the Empire lived here.
Five magic towers at the deepest part of the imperial capital suddenly exploded almost simultaneously.
Not long after the magic towers exploded–
From the depths of the imperial capital, an angry roar that sounded like a volcanic eruption was heard.
The voice reverberated across the sky and the land, causing millions of imperial capital residents to shake in fear.
Those who were smart could already tell that something big must have happened among the upper echelons of the empire.
The man who held the title of the Thunder Archmage, the most powerful man in the entire empire–
–was furious!
…..
In the royal palace of the Noah Kingdom.
Standing on the watchtower, Rennes could smell the corruption through the air, brought about by the backward social system.
Rennes and the princess stood on the watchtower that overlooked the vast scenery outside the royal palace.
The view here was very wide, and one could see more than half of the capital.
“I’m so sorry, Sir Rennes. I should be leading my subjects to properly thank you, the hero who saved the Noah Kingdom. At the very least, I should have prepared a sumptuous feast.
“However, as the princess of the kingdom, the only member of the monarchy remaining, I have many important things to take care of!”
As a princess, Lifa had been influenced by royal etiquette ever since she was young, so she was extremely polite when dealing with people. Such a girl could not be disliked no matter what.
Rennes met Lifa’s apologetic gaze, but only nodded slightly.
“Sir Rennes, there’s a bedroom on the third floor. You can take a rest there. I will ask the servants to prepare an exquisite dinner for you later. Please forgive Lifa for not being able to keep you company. I’m afraid tonight will be an all-nighter for me!”
Lifa apologized repeatedly and brought Rennes to a room on the third floor of the palace.
Half an hour later.
Rennes, lying on the bed, noticed that there was a flash of fire outside the window. When he looked carefully, he saw that it came from numerous lit torches.
The large bell in the bell tower of the capital was rung. The heavy chime echoed throughout the imperial city.
Even in the room, Rennes could feel the joy that was spreading throughout the city.
It seemed that the news of the war’s victory had started to spread under Lifa’s effort.
“Oh, thank God! God bless the Noah Kingdom!”
“Thank you, Great Apostle of the Abyss. My family will definitely pray for you every day and night from now on. May the sacred light of the Temple protect Lord Rennes forever!”
“Let us meet the hero, Your Highness. He saved the whole kingdom!”
…..
Hearing his name being praised by the people, a helpless smile appeared on Rennes’ face.
“I didn’t mean to make such a grand entrance, I swear!”
…..
Three days later.
After a few days of rest and reorganization, the overall social order in the kingdom had almost stabilized.
At least, the earlier panic that had spread in the areas near the capital of the kingdom was gone without a trace.
As the ruler of the kingdom, Lifa had been extremely busy in the last few days, but the result was showing.
By borrowing the name of the Rennes, the Apostle of the Abyss, she had established quite a bit of prestige in the kingdom.
With that, Lifa formed a bureaucratic team to help her govern the kingdom. Under their concerted effort to spread the kingdom’s propaganda, the citizens of Noah was now starting to believe that their kingdom had the strength to meet the Raytheon Empire head on.
At the same time, under the enthusiastic enrollment of the citizens, a new Kingdom Guards of 300 people was once again established.
The Kingdom Guards were temporarily put in charge of maintaining the security and stability of the kingdom, replacing the old Kingdom Guards.
When the new order was established, it also signified the end to Noah’s old glory.
The royal princess, Lifa, was now Queen Lifa.
She now shouldered the responsibility of revitalizing the kingdom. The immature naivety of a young girl in her gradually disappeared, replaced by the strong will of a queen.
At this moment, in the White Palace of the imperial city.
Lifa was sitting in a room filled with bookshelves. On the table in front of her laid a document. It was an appointment document.
It was directed at a total of 30,000 mage apprentices across the country. In the following week, they would be urgently transported from all over the country to the capital.
Then, after two weeks of basic training, they must form an army.
This was something that could not wait and had to be done as quickly as possible. Even if all of them were useless soldiers that did not meet the standard, once they were formed, they would bring a sense of security to the entire kingdom.
Sigh!
Lifa sighed helplessly, and finally chose to sign her name on the appointment document.
Although she kept using the name of Rennes, Apostle of the Abyss, Hero of the Noah Kingdom…
She knew very well that Rennes did not have any responsibility, nor any obligation, to help the Noah Kingdom.
Therefore, she could not order him to do anything. She could only make a request. As long as he helped her, she would agree to whatever condition he proposed!
