Chapter 116: The Haha-in Festival
The artificial island "Demon Special Zone" Hyunshin City. The city, which was built in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, does not welcome the end of summer.
Bright white stratocumulus clouds float in the deep blue sky, and the mirror-like windless sea reflects the dazzling light of the sun.
Wordlessly, she looked out the window at the vastness.
This is a Japanese girl in her teens. With a tall and slender figure and long hair in a single ponytail, her skin is white, and the pigment of her hair is also very thin, so she is a beautiful girl who is both gorgeous and beautiful. However, her face was very melancholy. From the pursed lips, a tired sigh leaked from time to time.
In the corner of the field of vision, a plane off the ground happened to pass by.
They were in a VIP lounge at the airport.
Only government dignitaries and people at the level of state guests can use the so-called VIP room. The floor is covered with a plush carpet, and a huge TV screen is buried in the beautiful wooden walls.
Looking at it were guests from foreign countries.
One of them is a beautiful man with blonde hair and blue eyes. His name was Arudiyaru Gong Dimitoriye Wattola.
He doesn't look like he's in his twenties on the outside, but his real body is a nobleman in the European "War King Realm". That is, the direct line of the first true ancestor "Forgotten War King", a pure-blooded vampire.
Facing this young nobleman, sitting was a young girl.
It was a beautiful girl with silver hair reminiscent of a snowy field and water-colored eyes similar to the brilliance of a glacier, and was known as the return of the goddess of beauty.
"This scene is completely defenseless in front of the enemy, regardless of the battle. I think it's good to have a tactical advantage due to the change of equipment, but it can be problematic in practice. ”
Looking at the image on the TV, the princess La Fuglia said lightly.
She is a royal family of a country known for her long history and excellent magic skills. And it's also a high-ranking witch who can fully master the magic of elf summoning.。 Even when facing the vampire aristocracy head-on, he didn't show the slightest sign of cowardice.
On the other hand, Wattola also looked at the picture with a serious expression that she didn't usually have.
"It's hard to say. Shouldn't the transformation in this occasion be considered not a simple change of equipment, but a kind of material transformation? In this way, even if it is not fully materialized, it will be able to maintain its defense. ”
"Their clothes are not destroyed, but they are ionized during the transformation of the atomic arrangement, do you mean?"
The princess nodded as if she had been aroused. In the picture she was watching, the girls who were confronting the huge monster were transforming into battle forms.
"But then the mana consumption will have to jump to the next level."
Wattola snorted sarcastically. No—smiling, the princess shook her head.
"It's also possible to suppress the consumption of mana based on stat fixation. However, considering the precision of the required material transformation, it is difficult for the practitioner to maintain the transformation state alone. ”
"Ahh
Listening to the conversation between the two with serious expressions, Sayaka Kasaka's face became quite bitter. Why do you have to stay in such a place?--like a distressed expression of self-questioning?
Sayaka's identity is a demon attacker, known as Mai Weiyuan of the Lion King's mechanism, and an expert in curses and assassinations.
Because they are experts, they are often assigned to serve as guards for important people who could easily become targets for curses or assassinations. Based on the theory that assassins are used against assassins.
Sayaka is now tasked with guarding La Fulia Lehavain.
This is a beautiful princess who is widely known around the world. Although she is visiting Japan in private, she is undoubtedly an extremely important figure to the Japanese government. Not to mention that Dimitoriye Vatora, a vampire of the "old generation", was at the same table, and the responsibility of the guard was quite heavy. Dispatching Saya Hua, the highest-ranking martial god and six-style heavy demon slaying bow that the Lion King is proud of, is not so much a natural judgment.
But even so, Sayaka's expression was not energetic at all.
La Freia and Vatora watched the Animation Channel's Transition Heroes program for children with serious expressions. Looking at the girls in fluttery miniskirts fighting the bad guys, the two of them discussed the value on a tactical level very seriously. This was a very peaceful and uncaring scene, but Saya Hua felt that she was doing extremely stupid things while watching them like this, and she couldn't help but become very melancholy.
By the way, the Knights of the Queen's Guard, who had retreated to the corner of the VIP room, and the young vampires of Vatora's subordinates, all stared at the TV with very engaged expressions.
Among them, there are guys who clench their fists to cheer for the hero, and there are people who cry because they are too moved. These guys, who don't usually have anything to do with cartoons for kids, seem strangely susceptible to this kind of thing. This matter is also a part of Sayaka's distress.
"Then again, princess. Recently, I've heard some strange rumors. ”
When the finale came to an end, Vatora abruptly changed the subject. Although it was as if it was talking to himself, the air in the VIP room became tense at that moment.
"It seems that one of the knights of Arutikia was sent to Hyunshin Island in an extremely covert manner."
"Such a strange rumor, huh?"
Ah, the princess tilted her head with such a tranquil expression.
"On this island there is my aunt. Although she has lost the right to inherit the throne, she is still the legitimate royal family of Arutikia. The minimum summoning is still needed. ”
"Running to such a border island, babysitter for middle school students. The elite troops of the Knights of the Rings are not easy. ”
"Because it's an uncle who makes people feel uncomfortable."
In response to the young nobleman's provocative words, La Fria's smiling face did not crack.
The royal maiden's bodyguards and knights watched the conversation between the two with dry saliva on the side.
What appears to be a peaceful gossip on the surface is in fact a potential confrontation between Wattola and the princess that involves a complex diplomatic strategy.
In Hyunjin City, there lives a young girl like Haze Natsune, who is the daughter of the former king of Arutikia. Using this as an excuse, La Fulia privately sent the Knights of Arutikia to Hyunshin City.
The royal guards were left to the Knights of the Kingdom. There's nothing unnatural about it.
However, there are still the strongest vampires in the world in Xia Yin's school, so things are a different story.
That is, in the name of guarding Hase Natsune, the Arutikiya royal family was able to easily organize the surveillance situation that was convenient for monitoring the ancient city of Xiao. It can't be an interesting situation for Vatora, who is stranded in this Hyun God City for the same purpose. That's why the warning is given in this way not to meddle here. Even so, the princess looked at Vatora with a flat expression and narrowed her eyes.
"If that's the case, so is the War King Realm, where some exaggerated missions are visiting this island one after another. Voludis Rauber and Jaganqing. They are all high-name imperial martial arts factions. ”
"Those guys are just ordinary tourists. It's about to be the big celebration of Hyun God Island. ”
Wattola replied with an incomprehensible expression. For the first time, the princess furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.
"Celebration?"
Seeing La Fria's eyes begin to shine, Sayaka bit her lip "badly". At a glance, the head of the royal daughter's guard knight also showed a bitter expression.
"It's almost time, princess. Please be ready to board—"
Forcefully intervening in their conversation, Sayaka whispered quickly into La Fria's ear. Seeing Sayahua's panicked appearance, Wang Nu's expression became even happier.
La Furia's next plan is to borrow a special plane prepared by the Japanese government to return home. If she is sent away, Sayaka's mission will be over safely. You can't let her accept some extra information at this time and change the reservation.
Clever and erudite, cunning and courageous, with all the virtues of a royal daughter, La Falia was also a curious and supernatural person in another sense.
If she knew about the existence of the "celebration", she might say something like "the schedule for returning to Japan will be postponed first, and I will go sightseeing". This situation must be avoided no matter what.
"Then, princess, I wish you a comfortable journey. Greetings to your father as well. ”
Luckily, Wattola didn't mean to leave La Fulia behind. Ostensibly, he came here under the pretext of sending off the princess, but in fact, his original purpose was to contain the Arutikya side. He probably thought that it would be great if La Fria could return home so honestly.
As if urging the reluctant princess to stand up, Saya Hua took her out of the VIP room. At the airport's parking point, you can see jets ready to leave the ground. And so it was to bring the princess there.
"What does the celebration mean, Sayaka?"
Walking gracefully on the dedicated road, La Fulia asked, wistfully.
"You're referring to the Haha-in Festival, right? It was an annual festival held at Hyunshin City during this period. There are a variety of programs in the pipeline on the island...... said and said that it was a show, but in fact, it was just ordinary entertainment such as makeup parades and roadside stalls, and there was nothing worth caring about the princess at all! ”
Well~"
Hearing Sayaka's explanation, La Fria's eyes sparkled like a child's. The knight leader's face suddenly twitched.
"No, no, Your Highness! Your life was threatened just a few days ago. His Majesty the King is also looking forward to the return of Her Royal Highness the Princess. On top of that, postpone the return to China—"
