Chapter 42 – Where The Demon Realm Princess Should Be
There were only a few pieces of paper in the safe. Kiehl carefully pulled it out and turned it over one by one. How closely did he miss the heart drawing?
‘This is a land statement.'
Next to the land document with the seal on it, he could see Bella's notes.
[ Kiehl 15th birthday gift ♥ ]
The moment the next page was turned, Kiehl couldn't keep his mouth shut.
‘…What is this?'
It was a very thick book and a few sheets of paper with the words ‘Key Note' written on the front. Seeing that, Kiehl quickly read the key notes first.
‘This…’
[ Key Note ] was as if he had read and compiled his biography.
‘Nothing is wrong' she wrote down as it happened, and next to the names ‘Peter' or ‘Laura' that he didn't know, ‘Dead. No impact.’
“…Is Peter dead?”
Kiehl hid everything in his arms and headed outside.
— “The villagers said that no one lived in the mansion.”
He had to check. The reason Bella left.
When he came out of the mansion, Rosanne and Myu were playing with each other, though when they looked at Kiehl's eyes, they stiffened.
“Are you leaving now?”
"…Wait here."
Saying that, he then rode into the village. Evening time the sun was already setting. Most of them were staying home.
‘Because Mary went to the mercenary at that time…’
At least, there was only one person who could answer the truth, even though he hated to see it.
Kiehl knocked on the door in front of Bwen's house. It was the middle of the evening when he heard laughing and chatting.
"Gasp…! Kiehl!"
As soon as Bwen saw him appearing out of the blue, he was startled and called out his name.
“….Where's Bella?"
All of Bwen's family were rolling their eyes. Bwen's younger sibling, who had come to the swordsmanship class at that time, answered.
"Miss Bella is gone."
"Where?"
"We don't know that either."
At that, Bwen hurriedly closed the door and pushed Kiehl away slightly, “When people come and ask about the mansion, they tell us to say we don’t know anything.”
"What do you mean?"
“…They gave us quite a lot of money. Every house.”
Kiehl sighed heavily.
"Then, what about Bella?"
“We don’t know. As far as I know, there was a murder there."
“….”
"Even though the body was torn to pieces, I'm not sure because someone saw it by chance."
…Did she leave because she knew the Crown Prince and was attacked?
***
"Wow! It's time to go to the Demon Realm!"
Since Pur missed the demon world he returned to after a long time, she jumped in joy. Meanwhile, Bella could now see her whole body become increasingly translucent, and she hastily banged her foot and slammed her to the floor.
It was the summoning circle going to the underworld.
"Come on, let's go in."
Pur was the first to raise her hand and jump into the summoning circle. How many seconds have passed?
"Guys, what are you doing? You’re not going."
At her question, Iwer and Jen looked at each other and smiled mischievously.
“Iwer, go first.”
“Jen goes first.”
This was because of a bet they made a few years ago on ‘why Bella is so good to Kiehl.’ They were still making bets and waited for each other's day… the day Bella returns to the Demon Realm.
‘This woman, she doesn't want to go.'
‘Damn it. I wonder if Jen wants to stay here, too.'
They were laughing at each other and fighting invisibly.
“Miss, I know the Miss’ taste, so why not let me stay in the human world and I’ll send you clothes and furniture?”
Iwer hit it first.
And, Bella really liked Iwer’s offer.
"That's good. Don't lose the walkie-talkie, keep it."
Now, she turned to look at Jenkins.
"What are you doing…? Why are you not going, I’ll go with you, so don't worry and go."
Bella thought Jenkins couldn't go because he was afraid of being a half-demon. Jenkins, who had no excuses to turn around, used her words as an excuse.
“…I'm still afraid. I also want to do more work here to help you.”
“What… is there something like that?”
“If you want to invade the human world, you have to know the internal situation well.”
At that, she rolled her eyes for a moment.
‘Do they still believe that?'
Even though she didn't want to do that in the first place, when Kiehl had to come to end her life, she would rather kill Kiehl.
"Well… All right. Here, take your walkie-talkie.'
Something wasn't quite right… She could understand Iwer, although Jenkins wouldn't have had any particular reason to stay?
‘…What? I should get obedience as insurance.’
Thinking that, Bella winked one of her eyes, and the bond of obedience that had been engraved on Iwer and Jenkins' necks long ago gleamed red.
“Neither of you should ever approach Kiehl. got it?"
"Yes!"
"Of course."
As the bond went all the way around the neck, Iwer and Jenkins both laughed and struggled inside.
‘…We screwed up.'
‘Damn it.
In this regard, they totally forgot that Bella was meticulous and thorough. After it was done, Bella now glanced at Zanbar before opening her mouth.
"Zanbar, aren't you going?"
"Yes…?"
"You don't like the human world. I thought you'd be the first to enter."
Zanbar remained stiff for a moment, then he hesitated.
“…I will go."
“Then, what are you doing? Hurry up, my legs hurt."
Nevertheless, he didn't move, hesitating in front of her.
Meanwhile, Jenkins' face darkened, though Bella didn't notice. He was concerned with the fact that her body became increasingly transparent.
"Zanbar, what are you going to do? Are you going to stay or not?"
"I will go."
When Zanbar hesitated even though time was running out, Bella grabbed him and shoved him into the summoning circle.
"Well, go quickly!"
Jenkins' face turned to contemplation, and he shook his head as he watched it.
"The Miss is… Well—”
At his words, Bella slowly raised her head and gazed up at the sky.
It was the last blue sky she saw in the human world.
Before her eyes became transparent and she couldn't see, she wanted to capture all of it into her memories.
‘Actually, I wanted to see the sea.’
The clouds that moved from end to end in this sky, like time that couldn’t be grasped was passing. She wanted to see the waves that came to her with a crumbling white light and came back even if they were separated like parting.
As her eyes gradually became whiter, Bella returned to the demon realm.
***
As soon as Bella arrived at the demon realm, she opened her eyes slightly to the unfamiliar smell. Next to her, Pur was peeking at her with her eyes twinkling.
Her head was throbbing.
‘What kind of stench is this again.'
"Miss! No, Princess!"
"Kyaak—!"
Bella was startled as soon as she saw Pur in the shape of a bear rather than a teddy bear after a long time.
‘Wow, really. My heart almost fell.'
Carefully, she grabbed her fragile heart and exhaled a rough breath.
"Are you okay?"
“No, nothing. I am a little surprised.”
"Ta-an! The demon realm prepared a party for the princess!"
"Party?"
Bella thoughtlessly turned her head to where Pur was pointing her hand at.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaakk!”
She should prepare her heart before taking a look. It was because she suddenly saw in front of her a human head had been cut into a pyramid. As soon as Bella had finished her scream, she was nauseous.
"Uhh… Huughh."
"Look! I said the Princess would love a seven layer!"
"I’m, I'm sorry…! Still, if you were a demon, I thought it was the number six, so I made it six layers."
When Bella motioned to clean it up, the demons carefully removed the pyramid as if they were worshiping famous paintings.
"Ha… Really crazy—Aaacckk!"
Bella hugged Pur, who was right next to her and hung onto her body.
“I have been waiting for the Princess!”
The cockroach general, Talam, whom she saw for the first time in ten years, was kneeling in front, and the cockroach army moved from side to side to welcome her.
It wasn't just that…
"I prepared it for the Princess! Here!"
It was like a birthday cake, and there was a gooey, nasty mass on a bowl of carefully connected bones.
"Ha…haha."
"The Princess laughed!"
"That’s enough. Shut up and get out!"
…The demon world she saw after ten years was still hell.
***
Bella believed there was hope.
In the last ten years, Zanbar and Pur have changed little by little.
Perhaps, she could regenerate this demon world, she hoped. She instructed everyone at first. If they kept this, she thought even a cockroach would be tolerable.
Do not wash with blood.
Do not kill people.
However, it was not followed at all. They were all secretly washing in blood and smelled bad, and they were playing and killing people everywhere.
In addition, the problem wasn't just that.
Bella changed the Demon Realm as much as possible with furniture brought from the human world.
But…
"Ha… Who told you to sit on my chair…?"
"Ah! I'm sorry."
"Hey. Wipe away everything that dripped off."
It had irritated Bella's nerves in small ways since morning, and she couldn't even eat properly.
"Hey! I told you not to put the roaches on the table!"
"It's not a baby, it's an adult."
“Get out, you bastard Talam.”
“It’s not a bastard… Not even a baby…”
“XX, get out!”
At least, she ate only vegetarian food that she could eat well made by Pur. However, when she saw the others, Bella didn’t even have the appetite to eat the grass.
They didn't listen to what she said at all.
"Hey, centipede. I told you not to stand out with that necklace made from fingers, didn't I?"
“It’s a toe.”
"I'm really going crazy. Really!"
Bella relentlessly just cut them all off.
"Princess…”
“Xx. You sucked, xx!”
She couldn't even sleep properly as the days went by.
“You xx, d***? I obviously told you not to burn corpses in the garden, didn't I?"
Now, even the nightmare smell from outside the castle disturbed Bella's sleep.
"I was on a campfire!"
“….”
And, the demons blushed and scratched their heads as if they had received her praise.
"Ha… which idiot xx, put a man's body into a campfire?"
“We are the idiots! We are idiots for the Princess!”
“Please… Can't you just stop making me swear for just one minute?"
As she answered so, Bella was losing her patience.
"I'm sorry. Princess. This is… I think the Princess will like it, so we prepared it for you."
Despite the fact that they were preparing something behind their back, Bella was not even looking at it.
“XX, I don’t like it! How many times do I have to say it!”
In the end, she cut down all the demons on the spot. And, since she didn't like how they moved to reconnect, she cut them again.
‘I… I can't live like this.'
She didn't even know how much time had passed.
‘…Should I just die now?'
