Two days later, on Lefaus Avenue outside the capital of the Kingdom of Lugnika, Emilia was silently lowering her head and frowning as she thought about a dragon chariot that was speeding forward. thoughts.
"..."
The meeting about choosing the king ended yesterday. After being tormented by a bad little girl, the final result was of course nothing.
Although, the elders of the Kingdom Sages and the Knights of the Guards did not dare to rashly propose punishing Anne or Emilia, but she could see that after Anne severely humiliated and teased the sages, After meeting the members of the Association of Guardians and the Knights of the Guards, the eyes they looked at Emilia became even more unfriendly under the hatred.
Originally, she, a silver-haired half-elf witch, was not very popular, but now, after going through all that trouble, she was even less popular.
This alone gave her enough reason to believe that Emilia, the little girl with blond hair and red eyes who was found in the slums, was more likely to be chosen as the king this time than the girl who made harsh words and wanted to destroy the kingdom. With all the unreasonable systems and all the vested interests, the probability of Felut being elected is even lower?
Come to think of it, that little girl Felt has the support of some young knights who want to reform the kingdom, such as the young radical reformers represented by Reinhard Van Astrea?
As for her, Emilia, except for Border Commissioner Roswaal L. Merzas and Anne, that lawless little guy, I am afraid that no one will support her anymore. The situation is indeed bad enough.
The only good news at the moment is that after Anne's trouble, the elders of the Sage Association never mentioned to them about starting the king's election. Perhaps, for a long time to come, the official king's election should be If she doesn't start, she should have enough time to buffer and work hard to do something to reverse her image and some negative effects on herself?
but……
Emilia has not yet figured out how to do it specifically.
Because she didn't seem to know what to do to change people's prejudice against her as a 'silver-haired witch', nor did she know what to do to reverse the bad negative impact caused by Anne's trouble in the palace.
"..."
"..."
In the first half of the carriage, Ram and Rem were sitting face to face in their seats with their eyes closed silently. They did not dare to disturb Emilia's thoughts, nor did they ask their old master Ross. Val L. Mezas Anything.
Their new owner is not here. According to what Emilia and the old owner said, their new owner Anne should have teleported back to the mansion with magic in advance. Therefore, only Emilia and the old owner are here. There are only four of them together with the two sisters Ram and Rem.
According to the current speed of the dragon carriage, it should take at least half a day to return to Hastur's territory, so they were not in a hurry and continued to sit quietly with their eyes closed, waiting for Emily at any time. Ya's command.
"Merzas..."
"Did you already know Anne's strength, so you chose to give her the mansion and territory directly?"
Finally, after thinking about the gains and losses alone for a long time, Emilia, who was still in a mess, suddenly raised her head and faced the person sitting opposite her. She was looking at the scenery outside the dragon carriage with a faint smile on her face. Roswaal L. Mezas, who had an arc and didn't know why he could still laugh, asked carefully.
"Why!"
"It's really nerve-wracking..."
"Emilia, actually, Anne and I...let's put it this way, the reason why we were able to reach a deal, I think, may have nothing to do with the things you are thinking about!"
"us……"
"In short, the reason why I gave her the territory and mansion has nothing to do with Emilia's participation in the king's election!"
"That's not what you think."
Roswaal L. Mezas looked away from the window, and then looked at Emilia for a while before saying this.
However, he looked a little hesitant, and he also stopped talking, obviously not wanting to directly tell the real reason why he and Anne reached a deal.
"..."
"It's not like Annie beat you up, and then you surrendered and gave up, right?"
After seeing what Anne did in the palace hall, and then thinking about her usual behavior, Emilia felt that Anne was totally capable of beating up Roswaal. A sudden attack, and using force to force the other party to hand over their territory and mansion?
"..."
"..."
At this time, after hearing what Emilia said, Ram and Rem, who were sitting silently, also opened their eyes and looked at Roswaal suspiciously with their red and blue eyes. L. Mezas looked over curiously.
"Hey!"
"Ram, and Rem, why are you looking at me with that strange look?"
"Do you think that your former master, me, is the kind of person who easily succumbs to force?"
Spreading his hands helplessly and sighing, Roswaal L. Mezas asked the two of them, somewhat dumbfounded.
"meeting!"
"If it was a new owner, it would be normal for her to do something like that."
"Yes."
"Sister is right. If the new master spread the old master's buttocks and beat him until he surrendered, Rem wouldn't be surprised at all."
The two sisters with venomous tongues ignored Roswaal L. Mezas's shocked expression and sarcastic face at all, and directly and tacitly agreed with Emilia's guess just now.
Now they are the servants of Anne Hastur, the great arcane magician. Therefore, they do not care about Roswaal L. Mezas, their old master who abandoned them regardless of something for something. I won't take the other person to heart anymore.
"you……"
"Hey, forget it."
"It's really sad, Ram and Rem, after you got a new master, you actually treated me like your old master like this."
Roswaal L. Mezas covered his forehead and pretended to be sad.
"..."
"..."
It was a pity that the two twin maids, Ram and Rem, did not answer the call, but stared at him with their beautiful eyes that seemed to be able to speak.
"All right!"
"I admit that I was the one who abandoned you first..."
"Anyway!"
"Emilia, I did have a rough idea of Anne's strength before, and that's why we reached a deal. As for the specific content of the deal, please forgive me for keeping it secret for now?"
"only……"
"I'm really sorry, Emilia. Even I didn't expect that she would act so randomly. I originally thought that she would be a great helper for your selection as king, but it turns out..."
"In short, this time is indeed a bit unexpected. You don't know that even my request for a title from the kingdom on her behalf has been put on hold indefinitely."
"Ha ha……"
After saying that, Roswaal L. Merzas grinned and laughed, not caring about the embarrassing atmosphere in the dragon carriage.
"Help?"
"Maybe……"
Knowing that Border Count Roswaal L. Merzas had good intentions, and that he was still her recommender and still supports her until now, Emilia couldn't say too many harsh words, just her expression. It's just a little lonely.
"The help is definitely there, but the final result is hard to predict..."
"Eh……"
"I hope everything goes well?"
Shaking her head, Emilia sighed and said nothing more.
Just as the other party said, Anne's powerful magic power and all kinds of magic she has never seen or heard of are indeed the ultimate help for her to participate in the king selection, but... the other party is also very good at causing trouble, and he is still a child. When doing things, she often likes to do whatever she wants, but for this reason, she doesn't know what to do.
In addition, Roswaal L. Mezas doesn't know what he is busy with recently. It is said that he will be busy for a while after the other party sends her back to the mansion. Therefore, in addition to continuing to rely on Anne, she , there seems to be no other better way.
"!!"
"Well?"
Suddenly, when Emilia was about to continue saying something, Roswaal L. Mezas exclaimed in surprise, then frowned and looked out the window of the dragon carriage with solemn eyes.
"What's wrong?"
"Any questions?"
Emilia was a little confused, so she followed the other person's actions and raised her eyes to look out the window, but unfortunately, she didn't see anything unusual.
"..."
"Rem and Ram!"
"You two are responsible for protecting Lady Emilia and returning to the mansion until she is safely delivered to your new master."
"Remember, we must protect her safety!"
"Ah!"
"There seems to be some interesting situations here. I have to check it out first."
Border Commissioner Roswaal L. Metzas did not answer. He just looked out the window for a while, then turned his head and gave instructions to the two maids Ram and Rem with a smile.
"Yes, Ram understands."
"Yeah, Rem knows."
Although Roswaal L. Mezas is no longer the master of his two sisters, he saw the other party's serious expression and heard the order that the other party asked his two sisters to protect Emilia. , they both would still accept it happily.
After saying that, the two of them stood up without further ado, walked to the back of the carriage, and stood next to Emilia, while Rem took out her chain bolas.
"Are you okay?"
"yes……"
"Is this the kingdom's revenge against us?!"
Hearing that there was a situation outside, Emilia subconsciously wondered whether Anne's actions in the palace two days ago and her status as a "trigger witch" had attracted revenge from those nobles or maybe it was Secret punishment from the elders and so on.
"Well……"
"It shouldn't happen?"
"Anyway, we are almost arriving at the territory now, so I'd better go and investigate first."
After saying that, Roswaal L. Mezas, who was also a little unsure, stood up directly in the dragon carriage. First he nodded to the twin sisters and used his eyes to indicate to them to do their job well and protect their beloved honey. After Liya, he suddenly opened the car door, and then he didn't know what kind of magic was used. He flew into the sky in the speeding car and flew to who knows where.
As Border Commissioner Roswaal L. Merzas left, the door of the dragon carriage was quickly closed again, and then, under the urging of the driver in front, the strong ground dragon began to accelerate along the road. Lefaus Avenue sped towards the territory.
…
Towards evening, the dragon carriage finally arrived safely at the gate of the castle courtyard of the mansion. However, Emilia, Ram and Rem discovered that Roswaal L., who was flying to investigate the situation at that time, Metzas didn't come back?
Therefore, as a last resort, the anxious Emilia and the two twin maids had to immediately find someone who had returned two days ago and was now soundly asleep on the sofa in the hall without a baby. The sad little girl archmage is sleeping.
"What?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"Someone is coming to cause trouble for us?"
(ʘ̆ωʘ̥̆‖)՞
"who is it?"
(゚Д゚≡゚д゚)!?
She was half asleep, and when she opened her eyes, she saw the anxious faces of the three guys, and also heard that bad guys were coming to make trouble in her territory. Anne jumped up on the spot and looked around, trying to Look, that careless thing chose to have fun for himself at this time when he was super bored.
(…)
(● ̄(エ) ̄●)
"We don't know yet."
"but!"
"Border Commissioner Roswaal L. Merzas has gone to investigate, but he has been gone for a long time and has not come back yet..."
With a worried look on her face, Emilia directly told everything she knew.
"Well……"
(ಠ~ಠ)
"Could it be the group of guys who were bullied at the Kingdom Palace the day before yesterday?"
(ー`´ー)
"I just knocked down those idiots and didn't kill them. How dare they come to take revenge?"
(。◕ˇεˇ◕。)
Just like Emilia's previous guess, Anne subconsciously thought that it was those guys who did the good deeds, or it was related to their group of guys.
"Owner……"
"Merzas Border Counter said that it shouldn't be them?"
"But who exactly..."
"I'm afraid I won't know until night."
At this time, Ram on the side added a few words.
"!!"
"Sister! You mean, those guys, are they going to do it tonight?"
"you sure?"
After hearing this, Rem frowned, stretched out her hand, and subconsciously took out her chain meteor hammer.
"Not sure, but maybe tomorrow night?"
"But I'm sure that if they are really coming towards us, judging from the position where Mezas Frontier Bo discovered the situation, they will launch an attack on our territory within two or three days at the latest!"
In fact, Ram had already discussed it with Emilia and Rem on the way back. That was what they thought was the worst case scenario. But now that the enemy is in darkness and we are clear, she thought about the situation a little worse and went in the worst direction. It's definitely not wrong to think about it.
"Owner."
"Do we need to do anything to prepare?"
Rem nodded, thinking that her sister was right, and asked a certain troubled little girl who sat back on the sofa and stretched herself.
"get ready?"
く(^_・)ゝ
"Then... I'll write a sign later, and you can put it up at every intersection that enters our territory. Then those bad guys will definitely not dare to come."
٩(๑´0`๑)۶
When she heard that the enemy was not coming, but was just preparing to come, Anne stretched again and said nonchalantly.
"brand?"
"Annie..."
"Are you planning to set up some powerful barriers?"
After hearing Annie say that as long as some signs were inserted, the enemies would not dare to come, Emilia subconsciously thought that it must be some kind of powerful barrier magic.
"Not!"
(*^▽^*)
"They are just ordinary wooden signs~!"
(。•̀ꌂ-)✧
"But don't worry, Emilia, it will definitely be fine, I promise you!"
(ˆ⌣ˆc)
Anyway, if there is a problem, Queen Anne can easily solve it, so now, Anne only plans to intimidate those enemies who have not arrived.
An hour later...
"elder sister……"
"Is it here?"
"Um!"
"Anything further out is not the owner's territory. It should be right here. If outsiders want to enter the territory, there is only this way."
"Then I'll just leave it here, okay?"
"..."
"Maybe?"
After discussing for a while, the two twin maid sisters Ram and Rem, who looked hesitant, finally hesitantly inserted a wooden sign at the fork from Lefaus Avenue to the innermost part of Hasta territory. , then, they all looked at the wooden sign for a while, and after making sure that anyone could see it, they hesitantly held hands and left together before it was completely dark.
And that wooden sign is indeed, as a bad little girl said, just an ordinary wooden sign, without any magical effect!
but……
On it, the following text from the Kingdom of Lugnica was written with a magic highlighter:
"Announce it here!"

"The former Metzas leader is now the greatest and most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most The most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most powerful territory of Queen Anne.

"I'm not kidding, I just burned it when I said it would be burned, don't say it was unpredicted!"
