Dragon’s Bloodline

Chapter 51



Eiii

Smash.

Yaaah

Smash.

Toooh

Irina swung her greatsword, smashing down the thieves.

H-hiii! The hell is this woman!?

It was a horror. With her greatsword, even though she expected them to be killed, the greatsword gave them a crushing defeat. Extremely absurd.

Even though the bandits started off with fifty people, they quickly dropped to half that number. Fireballs rained down onto those that that tried to run.

You cant run.

It was Serges magic. In the end, none of the thieves that had aimed at them on the road were left alive.

Your way of using that sword is awkward.

Shizuna spoke in an amazed voice. The person in question was puzzled.

You werent supposed to just swing the blade with muscle. Such a rare orichalcum greatsword was being swung like a blunt weapon.

It probably couldnt have been helped. To start with, Dragons didnt use bladed tools.

Ria, teach this kid.

In front of them was Ria, scattering the dead thieves bodies with beautiful slices.

However, something felt out of place.

Carlos noticed it.

The number of bodies killed by Ria was too few.

Ojou, whats wrong?

Towards his voice, Ria turned around. She had an unusual expression on her face.

It looks like theres no mistaking it

Resignation, uneasiness.

I seem to have gotten weak.

In other words, your senses couldnt keep up with the sudden growth of your body.

Carlos immediately understood. It was common during boys growth periods.

Yeah, I thought something was off when I was training, but

It was like wearing bulky gloves when she gripped the katana.

Even if she cut someone, it felt like she was using a bamboo sword.

That, and this chest, after all

The law of inertia existed in this world as well.

By the great laws of physics, the masses of fat on Rias chest were obstructing her.

Hey Serge, isnt there a magic that reduces chest size in that grimoire?

I havent looked for it, but I dont think so

Serge had no intention to look for it.

Rias depression continued.

Arriving in Labyrinth City, they visited Klaus mansion and were told the current state of Casalia.

An important minister in the imperial court was assassinated and a high ranking noble was under suspicion.

In brief, the royal court was in a mess.

Cordova is probably the culprit.

Ria declared. Though she didnt have much of a basis, thats what she believed. The reason was that everything Cordova did was bad.

No, it would take extreme preparations to assassinate a minister

Carlos, who was well informed on matters of defense in the royal court, objected.

Ah~, how about the demon tribe?

He nodded at Serges opinion, but refused that as well.

Would the demon tribe invade Casalias royal court to assassinate a minister?

Will we return to Anise for now?

Carlos was the one to propose that.

Its not like Ria hadnt thought about their options.

A princess had cleared the Immortal Labyrinth and Dark Labyrinth, acquainted herself to various people of power, and could destroy a kingdoms strongest knights. She was practically a hero of legend.

If a person like that returned to court, she would probably be a presence. She had been educated by the royal court mage Rufus and would probably get Reyas support as well.

But~, honestly, getting dragged into the royal courts machinations Id like to be excused from that.

Rather, what if Nee-chan was king?

With those words, Carlos and Lulu stiffened.

Though Serge, who was the child of farmers in this world and Japanese in his previous life, didnt know about it, he thought that two people who worked at the royal palace would.

Yeah, thats good. Anegos a perfect fit for being king.

Gig agreed easily. Maal nodded repeatedly as well.

Come to think of it, Casalias founder was a queen huh. Isnt it fine then?

Shizuna said it in such a way as to make it sound like someone elses problem.

Ria was an illegitimate child. Her mother was a commoner.

If you were talking about an influential background, she was famed as a person that conquered labyrinths and became connected to powerful people of foreign countries.

Then there were Rias younger brothers who were born from her fathers official wives. Those mothers were actual aristocrats and had strong support from within the country.

Would there even be someone that would support Ria becoming queen? No. There definitely wouldnt. Even her father wouldnt support her.

If, if Ria were to become king, she would have to erase all members of the royal family, including her younger brothers.

Then despite even if she got rid of the royal family, Rias crown wouldnt be stable as there were other nobles who succeeded the royal familys blood.

Again, there were also royalty that married into other countries. Those countries could come for Casalias throne.

Civil war was out of the question. There was a war.

If it turned into something like the civil war in Istria, itd become a seriously bad situation.

Its like that.

Hmmm, but if thats how it is, the power struggle will continue right?

Serge folded his arms. Thinking about his previous lifes knowledge, he considered various patterns.

Wouldnt it be bad if Cordova came to attack?

It would be bad, but well, father would find a compromise somehow or another.

Casalias King Neyas was capable. An excellent, fair, and cool-headed king.

No matter how much he cherished her, Ria knew that the king wouldnt give her the rights to the throne due to his honest political sense.

Nee-chans Oyaji-san is a wise ruler?

Well, kind of. Though he might be unskilled at war, its fine if he leaves it to his vassals. Casalia will be peaceful so long as father is king

Speaking up to there, Ria realized.

Because theres her father, Casalia was at peace.

So then, if her father was assassinated, what would happen?

A masterful assassin could assassinate father what do you think?

Carlos and Lulu stiffened a second time.

I dont think so. Reyas-sama is there, and even though Master Rufus isnt there anymore, his magic safeguards are impregnable.

Let me in on the conversation! Destroy the kingdom!

Bang! A single girl burst through the door and entered.

Everyone inside the room petrified. It was that abrupt.

Until the door had opened, there was no presence.

The beautiful girl had flaxen hair. However, the ambition she herself had shouted out indicated she wasnt an ordinary person.

Really, how the heck had none of them noticed her?

No, were not going to collapse it.

A silver haired elf struck the girl on the head as she entered.

Rather, it should be a dark elf with white skin.

Ah

Serge knew it, but Maal didnt.

The racial effect. You couldnt tell them apart if the color of their skin changed.

Rei san?

Heya, its been a while. By they way, Casalia isnt going to be destroyed. At least, it has nothing to do with us.

The Demon General Rei said that with a friendly smile.
