Volume 2 - Ch 3
_______
As Kazuya walks back to the camp whilst holding Iris hand, he suddenly hears a noise.
!!
!?
A large group of people emerged.
Oh?
Many of the peoplestared at Kazuya bewildered.
AhPrincess..
Within the group of people was Phyllis, whose face was completely blue. It felt as if time stood still as she walks up to Kazuya and Iris.
Great!!What will I do if hes done something to Princess Iris!?
hmmm? Now what?
Phyllis floated a strange expression as she knelt down on one knee in front of Iris.
First of all, its good that Princess Iris is safe. But where on Earth did you go? You shouldnt leave our side(TLN: Yes, she says where on Earth, even though theyre not on Earth xD)
Im sorry, that was irresponsible of me
After apologising, Phyllis sermon lasted for a good 5 minutes. However, she abruptly stopped as she suddenly remembered something.
Well, well. Please wait a moment Kazuya. Hey you, since it is getting very late into the night, please escort Princess Iris back to her carriage
As Phyllis spoke, two maids walked out from the side of the carriage and walked towards Iris.
Princess, please come with us
.no
Eh?
I dont want to separate from Onii-san! I dont want to go in the carriage!
Phyllis facial expression instantly turned grim as she speaks up.
Princess Iris! Such Selfishness!
Well, Ill escort you to your carriage instead
But.
Nn?
Muu.if Kazuya says so.
After Kazuya interrupted Phyllis outburst, he led Iris by her hand towards the carriage.
Although the walk to the carriage was short, Iris was clinging to Kazuyas hand tightly.
Weve arrived, look
As he arrives at the carriage door, Kazuya urges Iris inside.
But before she enters the carriage, she lowers her voice so the two maid wont hear.
(Will Onii-san also tell me a story tomorrow?
Oh? Sure, if I have free time
(Its an absolute promise)
..I promise
Kazuya was completely overpowered by Iris, who had tears welling up in her eyes.
.sleep well, Onii-san
Iris glanced back as she entered the carriage with the maids, revealing a pleasant smiling face. However, Kazuya just realised something.
He would now have to explain the circumstances to Phyllis.
After seeing Iris enter the carriage, Kazuya hurried over to where Phyllis was patiently waiting.
Now then, what do you have to say for yourself?
Kazuyawalked into the tent and was met by a large desk surrounded by 3 people. Chitose, Beretta and Phyllis.
Now Kazuya, I wonder what you were talking about with Princess Iris?
Even if you ask, Kazuya would not casually speak such secrets
Well, I see
I see
He may even obscure the story, its not unusual when asked about state secrets
Oh, I guess its not unusual to be silently killed once you discover state secrets
Haha, is that so?
After Phyllis laughed a little at Kazuyas joke, she quickly regained her serious face.
It seem Princess Iris is very interested in Kazuya.I suppose you didnt get properly introduced. Princess Iris is the eldest daughter of Princess Aria of the Canary Kingdom..originally, we had not intentions of letting Princess Iris meet with Kazuya(TLN: Torture to translate this O.O#)
..just as I thought. They had no intention of allowing the princess to be seen.
Kazuya begins to break into a cold sweat as Phyllischanges the subject.
Now, the question you asked at dinner wasWhy were you at that place?the answer to that question is that we were looking for someone with exceptional abilities. Coming from a different world much different from this one, an otherworlder(TLN: I guess by Why were you at that place? He means what were they doing before they were attacked by the monsters)
Otherworlder?
Kazuya who was unfamiliar with that word, asked Phyllis.
Dont you know about otherworlders? Great! It is said that recently someone from another world with exceptional abilities appeared here.The oracle said that that person descended near here, so we were searching the vicinity
I seeand why were you looking for this person?
Well. One reason is because of the increasing number of monsters. Another reason is the war between the Elsass magic empire and its neighboring countries. Because of these crises, we need the co-operation of the otherworlder
Surprisingly, the reason seems rather dangerous.
Increasing number of monsters?
I think we have also heard about that
Oh, is it news?
Regardless of Kazuyas reaction, Phyllis continues with her story.
The abnormal amount of monsters seems to be centered around two points, however if we leave it as is, the Canary kingdom may be destroyed.With our own strength, were not strong enough to destroy the monsters with fighting power alone. So we need help from the otherworlder with the exceptional abilites
I understand the reason, but why did you have to bring Princess Iris? Surely you and your knights are enough
When Kazuya asked this, Phyllis began to talk.
She was to be used to help entice the otherworlder to help us
is she a sacrifice?
..it is so
What would happen if you dont find the otherworlder. How would you deal with the monsters?
Well, right now a fast horse has been dispatched to continue searching whilst we report back to the capital. If, after two months we do not find that person. Then..we will directly attack the 2 points using large scale ritual magic that Princess Iris possesses
I dont see why you dont just use Princess Iris power from the beginning
Large scale ritual magic uses life force to power it.
The tent fell into silence.
..so either way Princess Iris is a sacrifice?
Chitose who had been silent until now, suddenly broke the silence.
..it is as you have said
When Phyllis acknowledged Chitoses words, the whole tent falls into silence yet again.
Is there no other way?
There is, but in order to completely surpress the monsters. The Canary Kingdom would have to completely recall all its forces, even the ones on the borders.If we do that, the Canary kingdom will fall to the Elsass magic empire
So instead youre looking for the otherworlder
Thats right, currently there are currently many allied powers
According to Phyllis the Canary Kingdom, Elsass Magic Empire and many other countries are currently occupying varies alliances ready for the upcoming war.
The demonalliance is currently governed by the demons. Vera Girard is governed by the animal people. However, the Elsass Magic Empire is currently the strongest on the continent and the other powers seem to be uniting against them.
.Its beginning to get late. Well continue this conversation later
As Phyllis said so, Kazuya also agreed to continue with the topic the next day.
