The Villainess Is Being Doted on by the Crown Prince of the Neighboring Country

158 8. The Precious Princess



Using Wind Spirit Silf as a guide, Aquastead and Keith headed for the Kingdom of Ellie together.

Tiararose returns to the royal castle with Elliot and Talmo, waiting for the return of the three.

Tiararose and the others.

"Master Tiararose, Master Aquastead will definitely help Master Lucia Rose."

That said, Elliot offers tea to Tiararose, who is worried.

"Thank you, Elliot.... but I'm still worried about you."

Of course, I believe that Aquastead and Keith will bring Lucia Rose home.

But there's nothing else to worry about.

Tiararose prayed for her safe return.

Ah!

Lucia Rose, who finally met Daddy Aquastead, smiled and hugged her with a small hand.

"Oh, good. Show me more faces, Lucia."

Huh?

"I don't think I'm hurt either..."

As Aquastead strokes his chest, Keith strokes Lucia Rose's head, saying, "You look fine."

I felt relieved and breathed.

"In any case, I didn't expect to be taken so grand..."

No matter what, Keith laughs.

"Better than crying."

And Aquastead returns it.

Then he said, "Ah, um..."

When Aquastead turned his gaze, there were two maid dwarves there. I know you took care of Lucia Rose because I have rattles in my hand.

"What is your relationship with the princess?

"I'm so happy, is it your family?

Aquastead nods to the maid who asks her how she is.

"I am the father of this child, Lucia Rose. Aquastead Marine Forest."

"Father!

"Very nice!!"

When you name it, the maid excites.

"Oh, wait... isn't Marine Forest... a big power?

"Yes, I read about it in a book. Master Norm, did you bring the princess from such an amazing place?

Every once in a while, the two maids' faces turn blue.

"I didn't know you were Princess Marine Forest, so I'm so sorry!!"

"I haven't scratched a single princess!!"

The maids immediately lowered their heads and apologized for their rudeness.

But since I apologized, I can't forgive you... As Aquastead thought about what was going on, Lucia Arrows reached out to the maids.

"Lucia?"

"Princess...? Ah, maybe you want this?

The maid shakes the rattles in his hand and shows them to Lucia Rose. Then Lucia Rose reached out, so the maid gave me the rattles.

Looks like you like it a lot. Gripping tightly, Lucia Rose waved to Aquastead.

"You're good, Lucia."

Ah!

Apparently I wanted to show it to Aquastead.

A closer look inside the room reveals that there are a lot of toys. Lots of cute things like rattlesnakes and stuffed toys.

But it was the rock lion toy that caught my eye.

- The dwarf made it?

Or a gnome?

Either way, Aquastead thinks it's pretty precise. Without considerable skill, this level of completion will not be reached.

Ah, ahh

Luciarose reached out to the rock lion because Aquastead was watching. Looks like he wants to play with a lion.

"No, Lucia. Mom's waiting for you, so I'll come home with you now. Right?"

"Uhh... ahh"

Lucia Arrows nodded honestly to Aquastead's words. I suppose you could hear the word mom.

"You know what? That's great."

Ah!

Keith stares at Lucia Rose as he says so. The eyes were very serious, and Aquastead said, "What's wrong?".

"... the magic of Lucia has grown considerably. Probably because of contact with the gnome."

"Then you'd better get out of here as soon as possible."

When Aqua Steed immediately turned his heel back, Silf's voice said, "Dear Keith!"

"Ah, idiot! Don't come over here!

Huh?

Hearing Keith's voice, Silf stopped his feet tightly.

"Nh, suppress your magic so it doesn't resonate!

Ha, ha!

As Keith told me, Sylf suppressed his magic. This is not going to affect anything... why on earth? And tilt your neck.

And I stared at Lucia Arrows... haha, I opened my eyes.

That child has the magic of Salamander!? No way, such a baby... That's why you told me to keep my magic down. "

I see, the more Sylf nods.

And looking seriously at Lucia Rose, I was surprised at the magnitude of its magic.

Amazing magic. You still don't have proper control. Besides, it looks like a pretty close line... if I hadn't suppressed my magic, I'd be running wild. "

If it runs wild, it will explode throughout the Ore Castle. Many people will be injured, and in the worst case, the Kingdom of Ellie may have been buried in the sky.

I feel terrified when I think about it.

Oh?

"Oh, it's okay, Lucia. I was surprised to hear it out loud."

"Let's go," Aquastead whispers to Keith and Silf as she strokes Lucia Rose, blinking her eyes.

"Yeah, Tiara's worried."

Keith agreed, but Sylf said, "Wait."

"Of course I'm leaving... but I can't see the gnome... hey, don't you guys know the gnome?

Silf seems to have noticed the invisible gnome.

Of course, Aquastead and Keith were concerned, but it was more important to bring Lucia Rose home than that.

Either way, we can come back later.

The questioned maid looks up with her eyes swimming.

But you thought you couldn't hide anything from Sylf. I honestly opened my mouth.

"Well... Norm is going to see the flame spirit."

"After that... I'm going out a little bit."

Going out? A ghost with a pull?

Where the hell are you? The maid shook her head, "I don't know," she asked.

"So the man who grabbed Lucia isn't here?"

"... that's what happens. If I go to the Spirit of Fire, I may be there."

"You can put that behind you. Let's go back to Tiara."

Okay.

I have to see Norm, but Lucien Arrows has a higher priority.

Aquastead looked up and left the Ore Castle behind.

Ah!

"... Lucia!!"

When the Aquasteads returned to Philadelphia's royal castle, tears broke out of the eyes of Tiararose, who had seen Lucia Rose.

It's not going to stop overflowing.

"Ah, Lucia... Aqua, Keith, and Shilf. Thank you very much."

Hi, Tiara.

"There was no gnome, but I'll punish you hard later."

I'm back now.

"Good, everybody's safe."

Tiara Rose hugs each Aqua Steed holding Lucia Rose. Relax from the bottom of your heart with the warmth of your beloved two.

Lucia Rose also seemed relieved to see Tiararose. Even though she was held by Aquastead and smiled, her expression was distorted.

Hmm, ahn...

"Oh, Lucia. It's okay, Mom and Dad are here."

Hmm...

"You must have been relieved to see Tiara."

As the two cry, Aquastead gently holds the tear rose. It's like we have two little kids.

"I'm sorry, I can't stop crying...."

"You can cry as much as you want. I'll hold you until you stop."

"Aqua...."

Hmm.

Keith shrugs his shoulders as he sees the three of his family drowning in water.

"I'll leave you three now."

That's right. So, we... we didn't have a date? Master Keith!

"Maybe I'll call Craig first...."

"Ahh, I don't feel so good...."

Keith decided not to listen to Silf and left the room.

"Ha-ha, I'm glad we solved this sooner than I thought."

Keith, who came to the rooftop, stretched out and saw the mountains rising in front of him.

I think that the place where these spirits are, while looking at the slowly rising morning sun, wants to retreat a long time ago.

"I don't know how it affects Lucia."

Yeah, but...

"I'm sorry if I don't owe Norm a favor."

I wanted to leave everything to Aquastead if it was a human problem. But the story is different between the Ghost Norm of the Earth and the Kingdom of Ellie.

No one knows the kingdom of Ellie, and it is not a place where human law extends.

Keith laughs when it's so annoying.

"Well, I won't forgive you for that."

You're talking about things again.

Craig.

A gust of wind delivered Craig's voice.

Crail-style magic allows you to chat with distant opponents. Wherever the wind blows, you can deliver your voice anywhere.

What happened to you?

Lucia is safe.

That's good. Have you figured out what Gnome's after?

In response to Claire's question, Keith tells the Dwarves of the Kingdom of Ellie what they were talking about.

The flaming spirit used for blacksmithing is about to disappear, and I think I needed Lucia Arrows' salamander magic to strengthen the fire.

"And one more bad report."

"... resonance?"

"Correct"

Reunited Lucia Arrows had more magic than before. That is undoubtedly what happened when Norm approached.

As a child who is not yet able to control magic well, it is safe to say that he is in a very dangerous state.

Keith sighs.

"The ring still sucks up the magic, but you don't know when it'll break?

I guess. That's why I told you. Keith said, "Don't bless Lucien Arrows..."

"... ah, that's what you said."

That's what Craig said to Keith in the woods library.

Keith's blessing...

"When Lucia can't help herself, give her the best she can... I know, that much."

Keith chuckles that he's going to do it without being told.

Even if Lucien Arrows stood in the abyss of despair, he decided to help with his blessings - Keith said.

However, the expression disappeared from Keith's face.

Keith?

Craig figured something out and called Keith. After a while of silence, Keith sighed.

"I was supposed to be home tomorrow... but it's gonna be a bit of a hassle."

With his tongue on his head, Keith left the roof behind saying, "I'll be in touch again."
