Great Tomb of Nazarik
Ainz was sitting in his office. He was reading the report about Gate. In front of him was Ragnarok. He came here to report shortly after his fight with Rory.
What! There is another gate, and the people next to that gate claim to be Japanese. Is that my real world? But looking at their technology, it seems that they are in the 21st century. And no such gate has opened in my real-world Japan. So is that a parallel universe! But I need to confirm it.
"Ragnarok, I'll give you some names and addresses, you'll see if they live in Japan and what they do there."
"Of course Dad. Hm...I had something to say."
" Yes."
"I think the big brother needs to be removed from the special Region and given the responsibility to someone else."
"Why?"
"In my opinion, the elder brother of the future might love Princess Piña co lada of the Saderan Empire!"
What! ...I think Ragnarok is telling the truth. Thus Beelzebub has been a bit weak towards beautiful girls since childhood. And Albedo will never accept any human as her daughter-in-law.
"Okay, I'll think about it later!"
"All right, Dad, let me go now. Princess Piña has invited me and big brother to dinner."
"Okay, you can go now."
Secne Change:
A group of riders raced down the road to the west, heading for Italica.
Above them flew flags emblazoned with red, white, and yellow roses. The sound of many galloping hooves thundered beneath them.
Their polished breastplates and helmets reflected gold and silver light, and the waving flags and upraised lances surged forward at great speeds.
The knight at their lead is especially noteworthy.
She was a spectacularly dressed female knight whose golden hair swayed in the wind. She lashed her horse repeatedly. Her mount mutely bore the pain and threw itself forward in response.
The countryside flew past the lady knight's eyes, but it was too slow, far too slow. She gripped the reins tighter and lashed the horse harder.
"Bozes! You're going too fast!"
The woman whose voice was filled with even calmness caught up to the foremost rider.
She was a female knight with chestnut-brown hair. Behind her was a group of mounted warriors, whom she had left behind in her haste to catch up with Bozes.
The lady knight called Bozes replied in a voice like the tinkling of silver bells.
"We're still too slow, Panache!"
"Your horse won't be able to take it, and people in the rear can't keep up with you. If this goes on, we won't be able to fight even if we make it there on time."
"It doesn't matter, our objective is Italica, and the stragglers can catch up later. Time is of the essence now!"
"But—"
"Even if only a few people arrive in the end, there are ways to fight with small groups. The most important thing is to get there as soon as possible, even if it's by just a little."
Bozes had said this much, and Panache could not convince her otherwise. All she could do was follow behind Bozes and convince her to slow down as much as possible.
After Bozes forced herself to loosen the reins and lower her speed, the unit behind her finally managed to catch up a little.
"Panache, will we make it in time?"
"It'll be fine. If it's the Princess, she'll think of away."
"But—"
It was all Bozes could do to suppress the uneasiness in her heart. Her energies were focused on the road which kept unfolding before her and the tiny point of Italica on the horizon.
Therefore, the first one to notice it was Panache.
"Hm?"
Something was approaching from in front of them.
Although this was supposed to be a major road of the Empire, that meant it had been built long ago and exposed to the elements in the wilderness, and in places, it would become very narrow, certainly not big enough for two wagons to fit side by side. If the riders continued like this, they would collide with the people in front of them.
Speaking of which, the entity approaching from in front of them was drawing near with a speed that surpassed their expectations. It looked like a box, and from a distance, they could not tell exactly what it was, but it seemed to be a wagon of some sort.
"Bozes!"
"I know."
"The hell you know! Look ahead!"
As Panache's scolding brought her around, Bozes straightened up, clicked her tongue, and pulled back hard on the reins.
Panache raised her left hand to signal a halt to the rest of the unit behind her, and she pulled on her reins to stop her horse.
The people behind them were slightly relieved because they had a chance to give their exhausted mounts an opportunity to rest. Both man and beast panted heavily, sweating rivers.
"Ahhh, what a pain! Have them make way!"
Just as the knights behind them were about to advance to remove the obstruction, they saw Panache's signal to wait and stayed where they were.
"They came from Italica. I'll check them out and see if they have any useful information."
With that, Bozes slowly urged her horse forward.
Scene Change: Italica:
Pina Co Lada. 19 years old female. The fifth child of Emperor Molt, the ruler of the Saderan Empire. She was in a distressing situation. She not only lost the city of Italica. But now she sat before the enemy Prince's. Because she invited Beelzebub and Ragnarok to eat together to build a good relationship.
"Their technological and magical knowledge would be way above ours. I had to be cautious. One misstep and this ' two Prince' may give the order to the annihilation of Italica. Or maybe…" she gulped nervously.
"Maybe the whole Empire…"
Beside her sat Myui Formal. The countess of the town of Italica. She was only 11 years old. But because of her father. The former head of Clan Formal, Colt, died participating in the Empire's expedition force to the otherworld. As her two older sisters were already married into other families, she became the head of Clan Formal. Her two older sisters are battling over who gets guardianship. Clan Formal withdrew its soldiers, having no spare capacity. As a result, crime increased, and public safety worsened.
Around them, the maids went and came. Bringing the newer and newer meals to the table. Count Myui picked her most prestigious guards to oversee the dinner. Behind Beelzebub and Ragnarok stood some A.C.H.
The four of them sat in the dining hall of the Count Formal estate ceremonial dining room, and none of them said even a word. The air around them started to become heavier and heavier for the Princess of the Saderan Empire and the young Myui.
Piña looked at Ragnarok and nervously said "Didn't you like the food? Why aren't you eating? You're only drinking a glass of water so far!"
"Ah, actually I'm 60 overlords. So I only need to eat once a week. And I can't eat much that day either."
"What's overlord?"
"The overlord is a high-level species of skeletons and our father is also an overlord," Beelzebub said.
Piña said in a panic, "Your father is a skeleton!"
"Yes, many call him the god of death," Beelzebub said.
Hearing this, everyone in the empire became very scared.
Piña thought what danger we have brought upon us! We attacked a nation whose leader was the god of death! We hit the ax on our own feet!
"Princess, can I ask you a question?"
Pina nodded nervously. "O-Of course."
Ragnarok sighed deeply. The tension just grows and grows in the room. Pina started to sweat again. "Your empire often attacks other nations without any declaration of war or scouting?"
Pina gulped nervously and mobilized all of her brain computing capacity to give the third heir of Ainz an adequate answer. "N-No! Of course, not! My father just thought about the appearance of the new gate. We may get the opportunity to expand our influence and gain new resources!" She retorted hastily.
"Please believe it! Please believe it! Please believe it!" She prayed deep inside her soul.
"Still, it is strange you sent such a great amount of force through the gate. You might think if you find an unknown structure in the middle of nowhere you send a few scouts forward to scout the other side. Before you send a whole legion. Don't you think?"
Pina gulped deeply and clenched her fists in her nervousness. "He saw through it…What now?" she thought.
"Ragnarok, that is the past. We need to concentrate on the future. And as father always said. Even the most vicious enemy can be turned into a friend."Beelzebub said.
" Ok"
A relieved expression moved on Pina's face. "I am glad you say this." She said. "I would like to apologize in the name of the Empire about our intrusion. I hope our nations can negotiate peace as soon as possible and can form a close relationship. I think it would benefit both sides. "She said.
Beelzebub nodded. "I agree. But unfortunately, it is not up to me. It is up to my father. If he wants to spread his influence through the gate he will do that. Otherwise, after the empire paid compensation. Our forces retreat through the structure. At least. This is what I would do."
"Can I ask you which path he is most likely to take?" inquired the princess with a curious yet frightened tone.
Beelzebub sighed and shook his head. "Unfortunately even I. His son could not perceive his plans. I only assume if his claims will be satisfied he will retreat our forces and offer a trade agreement between our nations. If not… Well…" Beelzebub left a little pause between his sentences and glanced sideways.
Pina waited patiently for a moment then her curiosity overcame her. "I-if not… What then?"
"Your empire will be brutally massacred. Or it could be, for example, making magic scrolls out of your people's skin or conducting various experiments on them. He can even inflict more severe punishments if he wants to." Ragnarok said a devil look.
Everyone in the empire was horrified to hear this.
"What could be worse than death," Pina panicked said.
"Death is our world is kindness, which frees you from all the pain of the world." Ragnarok's two eyes shone like Ainz's.
Pina became very panicked. She was in such a state that he could not even take a breath. It was as if she were dying.
Then Beelzebub uses the "lion's heart" spells on him.
" Ragnarok! she is just a normal human do not scare her like this. You're fine Princes Piña!"
"Yes, I'm fine, thank you."
"There is no need to be afraid. My father is so peaceful. If your father accepts my father's demands, nothing like this will happen," Beelzebub said with a kind smile.
"What is your father's claim?" pina said sweating.
"My father sent an envoy to your father to make his claim."
"What? To my father!"
Hearing this, Piña became more frightened. It's too bad! My father would consider it more honorable to commit suicide than to obey the demands of the enemy. An image then appeared in front of Piña. Then she heard the thunder of the sky. She saw the black-armored skeletal soldiers who were ruthlessly killing the people of the empire. The metal giants whose attacks are shattering the bodies of her people or turning them to ashes. All around are the cries and howls of the people of the empire. Piña then grabbed her head with both her hands and screamed.
That's when everyone looked at her.
"Are you okay Princess Piña!"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Prince Beelzebub, Can I make you a request?"
"Of course"
"My father is a proud man. So it is disrespectful for him to accept the demands of the enemy."
"Do you think of us as enemies?"
"No ... but my father thinks so. I think he will reject your father's claim. Hm...If he does, please give him one more chance. I promise I will do my best to persuade him myself." Piña said nervously.
"I'll talk to Dad about it when you're saying that."
"Thank you so much" Piña breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, then we're going now. see you later Princess Pina "
Scene change: City of Romalia:
The town was built about one month ago. Many people came here after the city was built, most of them from Rondel. Because they wanted to study the magic of another world. Of course, some spies from the Saderan Empire also came here.
Currently, a beautiful Elf woman was walking on the city streets. She had a huge ax on her back. She was the sun god, Flare's apostle Granham.
She looked at the city in amazement. Because the city was much more developed and beautiful than the capital of the empire. Several dragons were patrolling the skies of the city, and these dragons were of different species. This thing frightened her a lot.
Looks like they're trying to make an impact on Falmart. We are in such a predicament for that arrogant empire and stupid Hardy. Granham thought.
She came to a big house in the middle of the city on foot. The flag of the Sorcerous Empire was flying over it. It was the town hall of the city. She went inside the town hall. Upon entering, she saw a line in front of the reception. She also stood in line.
She saw that the soldiers were taking some people away after talking to the receptionist. She realized that something was wrong.
After a while, her number came.
"I am here to be the messenger of the gods of Falmart. I have been sent here to invite the gods of your world, for which I want to go to your world."
"She's telling the truth," said a doll at the receptionist's table.
"Can this doll talk?" Granham said in surprise.
"Yes, this doll is called the truth doll. This doll can later understand in the minds of the people around it who is telling the truth and who is lying."
"So those who were being taken away lied?"
"Yes"
Impossible! Their magic is much improved. They have items that they can read in the minds of others.
Then the receptionist gave her the paper. "Write your request on this paper. We will let you know if your request is accepted."
"How long will it take?"
"I think it may take several days. You can stay in our guesthouse for as long as you want."
"All right."
Scene Change: Italica: That evening
The Knights had reached Italica borders at last. Bozes and Panache, relieved after seeing the city from the far and, decided to report to Piña and apologize for not being able to make it to the battle. However, not only did Pina not blame them for that, but she even praised them for being earlier than expected.
Overjoyed by the praise, Bozes and Panache congratulated Pina on her victory and told her about their encounter with some foreigners who might have been the enemies who had taken over Arnus. They had captured one of them, and they thought Pina would have congratulated them on it.
She knows something is not right when she saw the unknown broad-shouldered blue and black armored soldiers helping around the city. Repairing walls and standing guards near the breached gate.
The city was captured by an unknown force. She and every knight knew that after they saw the unknown soldiers. But if they had to die. They will die. Meanwhile, they protecting the empire and bringing glory to Pina's name.
All of them unsheathed their swords and started to charge towards the city gate what was fully open after the bandits broke it down.
Gray Co Aldo the veteran knight who just patrolled on the walls to kill time. Seeing the charging knights hurried down to the main gate where he can receive them. After all, he and Pina as well don't want any more diplomatic incidents.
Bozes and the knight suddenly stopped their horses immediately after they saw their childhood mentor and the oldest member of their order.
As the Knights reached the gate, Bozes and the other knights looked around with a terrified expression
After they had to see closer unknown blue armored soldiers from various races, horrible skeletal-faced massive creatures with huge tower shields and serrated swords, and metal giants patrolling the streets and repairing the walls.
After they had seen one of the horrible creatures marching behind Gray, they raised their bow and shot towards the creature.
Gray signed them desperately to stop, but it was too late. The weak arrows reached the undead Death Knights and simply bounced off its sturdy armors. It turned towards them. Raised its shield and started to march towards them.
Seeing the prattle, El hurried beside Gray and just wanted to give the order to his soldiers to attack.
But Gray stopped him.
"Please forgive them. They don't know the city under your Empire's protection." The veteran knight bowed his head as an apology. El nodded. "Fine. But we keep up our guard." He signed the Royal guards, The Knightmare frames, and the Death Knights in the scene to keep their weapons ready.
Bozes looked around with a terrified face as she and the knights approached Gray and the General of the Royal guards. "G- Gray … What is this? Who are these enemy soldiers? What are those creatures? Who is this."
Gray sighed in an exhausted tone. "They and the men in green helped us to fend off the attacking defectors. And these soldiers remained to keep up the peace. He is El Cortador. The General of the Royal guards. He offered his soldiers to protect the city until we recover. "Explained Gray.
Bozes and the other knights nodded in response. "W-What are these creatures?" asked Bozes in a terrified tone.
Cortador said in a cold voice. " They are our soldiers."
Bozes and the other knights gulped panicked and wanted to grab their swords.
"But don't worry. They will not attack only if you attack them or we gave the orders for the attacks." Cortador said
Bozes nodded nervously.
Gray sighed in an exhausted tone. The last night was long enough. And now he had to deal with inexperienced children. True they were enthusiastic. But they were still inexperienced children compared to the veteran warrior like himself and the elite forces of the Sorcerous Empire.
"Come with me. Princess Pina is already waiting for you. She will explain the situation in her office."
He wanted to turn away when suddenly saw the unconscious tortured bound Itami in behind one of the knight horses.
Gray eyes widened and started to massage his nose temple. "Now you did it. Her Majesty will not be pleased." scolded Gray nervously.
Bozes and the other knights looked at their old mentor with a dumbfounded expression. Gray walked beside Itami. He cut his ropes that bounded his hands and placed him on his shoulder. "Follow me."
Bozes and the other knights nodded nervously and followed the veteran knight.
Bozes and Panache did not know why Pina had not only scolded them but had even thrown a goblet at them.
"We broke the treaty in less than a day, and it just had to be him…"
Hamilton peeked at their prisoner, who was in the corner of the room.
Itami lay there, his body devoid of strength.
Hamilton placed a hand on his shoulder and shook him while shouting, "Itami-dono, Itami-dono." But Itami was covered in abrasions, and he sported many bruises from being beaten by many people, so his physical and mental stamina was depleted, to the point where he couldn't even answer her.
It was not hard to imagine what had happened to him on the way back here from looking at him.
"Hamilton, how is Itami-dono?" asked Pina with a great amount of worry.
"It looks like he's been hurt pretty badly, we need to get him to care immediately.
Piña summoned the chief maid of House Formal and said, "Sorry, we'll leave him to you." The old maid and butler replied, "Understood," and then the maids came together to form a human wall around Itami. He has transported away in this manner.
After watching Itami leave, Pina fiercely snapped her head back.
She looked just like a demon then, and after slapping Bozes — who was a bit taller than her — square in the face, she began questioning her.
"What on earth did you lot do to Itami-dono?!"
"We, we just brought him here the way we would a normal prisoner…"
The normal way of treating prisoners, for the Empire, usually involved dragging them behind a horse, and when the prisoners collapsed from exhaustion, they would be poked with spears or lashed with the flat of a blade, forcing them to rise and continue. Even if they did stand, however, they would still be brutalized with fists and feet. In this way, the prisoners would lose the will and strength to resist or flee, and it was also part of the process of breaking them before selling them as slaves.
Pina started to mutter "This is bad, this is dreadful." She grabbed her head with both hands and shuddered as she tried to suppress the rage running rampant through her body.
If one thought calmly about it, it was not entirely Bozes' or Panache's fault. After all, they had been handling an enemy who had taken over Arnus, and they could not possibly have known Pina had signed a treaty with them. At least they did not offend the Sorcerous Empire's forces. Oh, no. They also did that. They attacked one of the creatures back then.
However, sometimes, unlikely things like this simply happened. The fact was that the JSDF had immediately withdrawn from Italica once the treaty took effect. Excuses like "they did not know" or "they were told too late" would not work. After all, the ones who wanted the treaty to take effect immediately had been Pina's side. Itami had been captured after the treaty came into effect, and worse, it had happened within House Formal's domain, where they were guaranteed free passage.
These actions would break both treaties. There was no doubt about it.
This was a preferred tactic of the Empire, starting a war on the pretext of a treaty violation. Violations of Treaties often happened in a world with poor communications like this one, with subordinate units fighting on long after the rest of them had surrendered because nobody told them to stop.
It was because the Empire did these things often that they felt the JSDF would do the same to them.
A chill ran down Pina's spine.
The music which rang across the sky. The battle of Valkyries and the demons sneer now echoed inside her ear. She could not help but imagine her knight band, Italica, even the whole Empire, burned to ashes by the flames of hell by the two forces. She already knew her Empire does not have a chance against them individually. But if this offensive act brought them together. She doubts even the gods can stop them.
Bozes and Panache, who had learned about the agreement Pina signed with the JSDF, the Sorcerous Empire, and now is the city no longer the Saderan Empire's supervision. But became a free city. A neutral ground for negotiation. They learned all of this and much more from Hamilton, finally realized what they had done, what Itami had meant by "Let's talk this out" and why he had not resisted his capture.
"Itami's men should have been there, what happened to them?"
"The ran off just like that."
They had laughed at Itami because Itami's subordinates had run off instead of trying to rescue him. However, they now knew why they had chosen not to retaliate, but flee.
If they could have taken them all captive at the time, they could have wiped them all out under the pretext of the unit going missing, but if everyone else escaped, that would have been useless. Not that they could have captured them in the first place — they had Rory the Reaper with them.
Later in Pina's office, she tried to figure out how to apologize to the parties.
"Your Excellency, we are fortunate that nobody's life was lost here. Rather than try and come up with some clever ruse, I feel we should sincerely apologize to them."
These were the words of Gray Co Aldo, who had been listening quietly from the side of the room.
"But these were the people who even asked us to treat these bandits 'you-main-lee', and they even asked us not to abuse them. If they found out what happened to Itami, don't you think that would get them mad enough to attack us?"
"Then we just need to atone for that as well."
"That is, you want me to atone for that, right? But what if the other party asks us to hand over or execute the responsible parties? I already apologized to Prince Beelzebub. But he just laughed off the accidents and said 'it is not a problem. Accidents happening from time to time.' But what about the JSDF? What if they want to retort the irresponsible knight's acts?"
"Well, what else do you want to do? Declare war? These are opponents who ride iron pegasi and have magic that can set the earth ablaze, and then you have the Grim Reaper Rory Mercury to worry about. If it were me, I'd rather not change that. We can't even ask for help from Prince Beelzebub because he and the JSDF signed a non-aggression pact amongst each other. They only protect the city from the possible attackers." The fifth child of Emperor Molt grabbed her head in her desperation. "This is bad…. This is very bad…"
Even a hardened veteran like Gray was shaken to the core after seeing those horrible scenes. Pina was steeling herself to undergo any kind of humiliation as long as it would allow her to atone for this successfully.
That might be so, but, there was nobody present who was higher-ranked than her. Pina needed to avoid a situation where she might be forced to forfeit her life after Bozes and Panache admitted their guilt.
The air turned cold and heavy around them.
After a brief silence, Gray attempted to break the tension by saying in a humorous tone, "Well, in the end, the situation depends on what Itami-dono thinks about it." He laughed nervously.
It was already past midnight.
At this point, Bozes had arrived at Itami's door, with a pained expression on her face. However, nobody heard her knocking.
Because Bozes was nervous, her knocking could be more accurately compared to gently caressing the door.
She waited dumbly in the dark corridor for some kind of reaction.
She continued waiting, in front of the silent, unresponsive door.
As she waited, she began to get worried about a passer-by spotting her, so she looked left and right, before taking a deep breath and exhaling to relieve her tension. Even then, she still could not gather up the courage to open the door.
The hallway was silent, and behind this large set of double doors was the bedroom. There was another intervening door within the bedroom. The designers had intended to make sure that noise from the corridor did not disturb anyone within.
You will seduce Itami." To Bozes, that order might as well have been a death sentence.
"As a daughter Born Into a noble houschold , lam Prepared for this"
"of all things..."
."But ...But that I'll be or dered to offer my body to the man I tormented."
" This is for the sake of milady Piña and the Empire."
And so, Bozes finally gathered enough courage to open the door, and she walked toward the separating door in the deepest reaches of the guest room, the one that had loomed large in her mind for a while, intending to go to where Itami was.
Bozes entered silently and approached the bedroom. She planned to silence Itami with the sensual pleasures of her body before his sense of foreboding woke him up.
However, as she opened the innermost door, what greeted her was a cheery, lively atmosphere.
The room was brightly lit with candles, and the maids were chatting and having tea with the soldiers from another world.
She was ignored almost completely.
She was overlooked.
She was about as substantial to them as air.
"Gggg…."
"I worked so hard to gather my resolve, and this is how you treat me?" she screamed inwardly.
"How dare you ignore me, Bozes, the second daughter of House Palesti?"
No one looked in her direction.
"What huge brass balls you have."
She was still completely ignored by the crowd in the room.
"Are you mocking me for being a rag that you throw away after filling me with your seed? "
Of course, she did not actually say that, but her rapidly-growing hysteria filled in the blanks for her. As a woman, she could not tolerate the insult of being overlooked.
The only way to vent the anger building within her was with the work of her two hands.
"Ha-ya !" She slapped Itami's face with all of her power and Itami passed out again.
Itami was out of the cold all night. Thanks to Bozes inhuman strength what was the result of her sudden rage and her hard knight training.
In addition to the black right eye from yesterday, now there was a bright red palm print on the left side of his face. Besides, it looked like some kind of five-clawed cat had scratched him on both cheeks. Truly, the victim's face was a picture of the tragedy.
"That… what on earth happened?"
After a huge disturbance in the middle of the night that had nearly flipped the roof of the house, the JSDF members now stood before Piña, along with Bozes, who had been dragged before her, as well as the manor's maids.
The Imperial Princess Pina Co Lada now felt like she had swallowed a burning stone, given the scorching pain in her abdomen, and then asked for an explanation of why there were more injuries on Itami's face. She was scared stiff, of course, but given her circumstances, she had to ask.
"The bruise on his right eye was there from the beginning" Rory said.
"We didn't do anything at all- Nya" Persia said.
" T... That was... my Doing..." Bozes narvasly said
" UHM .. Deal with this.. how should I "
" What Just happened doesn't bother us... we just want to take the commander and return."Tomita said.
"We wish to take the commender back witg us,this incident does not concern us ." Lelei translated and said.
Pina could not just let 3rd Recon go like that, so she was looking for ways and means to keep them here, like saying "How about breakfast with us," "Please accept our hospitality," and so on.
Kurata stood aside and explained in an apologetic tone, "In truth, Lieutenant Itami's been summoned to address the National Diet, so he has to get back to his country by today."
Lelei's translation used a slightly different word, and thus the meaning changed.
" The Senate requested a report From Commender Itami. He must return today."
When Pina heard this, she had a look on her face much like Edvard Munch's "The Scream."
In the Empire, only individuals with super-elite bloodlines and careers were granted the honor of stepping into the Senate Chamber. A highly-placed person would have a chance to steer the ship of state and become a leader of men. Even if one were a low-ranked officer, they would be permitted to brief the senators on the progress of the war, and they might even have a chance to address the Emperor himself directly.
And once Pina learned Itami had been called to speak before their Senate, she immediately mistook him to be part of Japan's elite and an important man in his country.
"To think we upset such an important person… if this gets worse, the Empire is doomed, I have to think of something quickly...If we ask the Sorcerous Empire for help then maybe they can help us. But why would they help us! ... Hm ... If we are their vassals then maybe they can help us.
"No! That would mean we had to vassal ourselves to the Sorcerous Empire." Came the idea in her mind then suddenly waved it off.
"Besides that. My stubborn father would rather die than let that. But if things will go in this direction we may have to do that. We don't really have another chance. Either the JSDF destroys us, or we accept the Sorcerous Empire to take over the Saderan Empire and with it. Take our freedom from us.
"Then the Emperor of the Sorcerous Empire is the god of death. A living God rules over them. If what he said is true, that means they killed the gods. That means even if the twelve God came personally to our help. We had no chance! However, as Beelzebub looked at me on the last day and from our talks. He seems honorable and nice and..." she blushed a little. "Charming... If I may try to seduce him to protect our empire without visualizing it… or maybe enter political marriage with him..." she shook her head discarding the idea.
"No! I would never sink that deep. But I have no choice…"
Panicked Pina lowered her head. Then a new idea came into her mind. "Unless…" her posture straightened as a new revolutionary but desperate idea came into her mind.
"What's going on here?" The one who said that was Beelzebub, he had just entered the house.
"Do you have a special reason for coming here?"
"Actually I'm going back to my world. So I thought I'd meet you before I go."
"What! You're leaving ... why ...?"
"Actually my father removed me from the expedition army commander and gave Ragnarok the responsibility. So I have to go back. And what happened here?"
"Bozes, a member of the Rose-Order of Knights, first captured Commander Itami, and now slaps him."
"Ah, then this matter."He said looking at Itami's cheek." Ok good bye"
"Will we meet later?"
"If luck wants" Then Beelzebub left.
It's too bad! Prince Ragnarok did not seem at all friendly. What do I do now? No ... I have to think about J.S.D.F now. Otherwise our destruction is inevitable. Pina thought.
At that moment, Pina instantly made a decision.
She clenched her fists and rose forcefully to express her determination.
"Then, I pray you will allow me to travel with you! sir Itami" Every JSDF member looked her wide eyes, and Lelei translated her words with the best of her ability.
Itami started to scratch his face nervously. "Are you sure Princess? This is really not necessary…" Lelei translated this also.
"I am sure Sir Itami. It was my subordinate who made the insult against you and your country. As the Emperor child and the highest-ranked Imperial Person in the city, I must apologize from your country senate personally."
Lelei translated It also.
Itami sighed. Bowed his head in defeat. "Very well. Lieutenant General Hazama wanted to invite the higher ranked person in the fort anyway to negotiate with them." He starched the back of his head nervously while smirked.
Scene Change: Imperial Castle Sadera.
Emperor Molt was sitting on his throne talking to Marcus when they heard someone's footsteps. They looked at the entrance to the throne room. All of them saw a man approaching them at the end of the throne hall and there were four more people behind him. He is considered to be a very handsome man with fair skin, corn-silk blonde hair that falls across the back of his neck, and cold, violet eyes. He is extremely tall. He wearing a long, royal purple tunic that is bordered with black and gold accents, and across his mid-section is a loosely fitting white belt, ending right at his kneecaps, that covers a portion of white slacks. Over the top of this is a white over-coat that possesses a stiff, black high-backed collar that shows crimson silk inside, with golden epaulettes at the shoulders. The other 4 were wearing blue boots, blue pants, a white shirt, and a black helmet. They had two swords behind them. They were members of the Elite Royal guard.
They almost reached Molt and Marcus. The Emperor's guards ran out from behind the columns of the throne room and created a wall of shields before their emperor.
Emperor Molt, despite his surprise, still kept his arrogant, superior expression. "Humph. Who are you ?"
They bowed their head. "My name is Schncizel el Britannia. I'm here as a messenger for the Sorcerous Emperor Ainz Ooal Gown."
"Sorcerous emperor! Did you come from the open gate between the Romalia Mountains?" Molt said.
"Yes, Your Highness. In the past, your troops have attacked our civilians without warning. Many of our civilians have been injured and some dead."
"Are you here for compensation?" The emperor said with an arrogant smile.
"You are right. Our emperor is peace-loving, so if you apologize to him and meet his demands, he forgives you, agreeing to establish trade relations between the two empires."
"You're telling me to apologize, I'm Emperor Molt Sol Augustus. How dare you."
Emperor Molt signals to attack his troops. The emperor's honor guards proceeded to attack Schncizel. Then the royal guard rushed towards them and started killing them all.
Marcus and the Emperor's eyes widened seeing his veteran honor guards killed so easily.
A royal guard was walking towards the emperor. Schncizel then says "Stop, our job was to deliver the message and we delivered the message. If we kill the emperor here, it will ruin the respect of our empire."
He threw a scroll at the emperor "The envelope contains a message and the demands of the Sorcerous emperor. "
Then Schncizel and the royal guards left. Schncizel smiled as he left.
The Emperor started to massage his face as he inspected the message. "W-What do we do now, Your Majesty?"
As Molt read the message, he gritted his teeth. "Double the guards around the palace and the patrols in the city. Place a high bounty on that man's head."
Marquis Marcus bowed his head respectfully.
