22. Shrine maiden jade

"Uh-huh. I see. ”

After shaving Asmon's hair a lot and making her honest. The man claimed to be a smoked chicken...... No, it was Kaoru Hime's woman who was finally able to listen to Lilith's explanation quietly.

Soon, Lilith and her party were taken to a building full of exotic style, and in terms of scale, I am afraid that this is also relatively luxurious in this area. And Kaoru Hime is most likely the owner here.

"From the other side of the world, that is, there is another land on the other side of the sea?" Kaoru Hime thought for a moment, "This is not the same as I know, shouldn't the end of the sea still be the sea?"

"Not really!"

For this kind of scientific question, Lilith can still answer a little strongly, "We proved a long time ago that there was another continent on the other side of the continent, but because of the lack of ability at that time, we didn't rush there. Otherwise, how do you think we got here?"

"Well, youkai can fly over. ”

You're the monster! Don't hold on to that, okay? Isn't it just that Lucifer's wings are a little ...... Is it something like a crow?

"But you do dress and behave differently than our side. Kaoru muttered, "Could it be that on the other side of the continent, there is some kind of monster empire?

Kaoru quickly stood up, whispered a few words to the girl standing behind her, and then left the place immediately after saying "goodbye" in a hurry.

Because none of the boatmen came down, even Lilith's group of 10 people didn't feel crowded in this room, but they were just a little restrained. The main thing is that these maids, whether standing or sitting, make people feel very awkward.

Not a word, motionless, and even mostly with their eyes closed. I'm afraid that without someone else's order, these maids won't even eat by themselves.

Just as Lilith was hesitating to see if she could walk around the empty room, she suddenly saw the sliding wooden door open with a bang, and a teenage girl broke in, like a robber.

Compared to the heavy outfit of Kaoru Hime before, although this little girl's clothes look a lot better, they look even heavier. The whole body is covered with something like a semi-circular sphere, and in his hand he is holding a stick that seems to be made of metal, which looks a little heavy...... Magic wand?

I guess it's a wand, but I don't know what it's called here. It seems that this little girl should be a magician here.

The little girl who broke in looked around, locked her eyes on Lilith as if she had identified the enemy, and then reached into her arms and pulled out a bag of white things.

What's to be done?

"The demons are gone! The monsters are gone!"

The girl grabbed a handful of white powder from her bag and threw it at Lilith, could it be that the compromise powder package was another form of scroll?

In a hurry, Lucifer stood in front of Lilith, but judging by her expression, it seemed that the powder was not very lethal.

"His Royal Highness Jade!!" the girl's actions made the maids who had been closing their eyes panic suddenly, "These are Kaoru-sama's guests, and besides, don't take the salt bag and scatter it around!"

"It's my duty to exorcise demons!" the girl said something that was not appropriate for her age, and as she kept throwing the salt out of her hand, she muttered "What a strong monster" when it was all gone, and then tried to run back again to get a few more packets.

But as soon as she turned around, she bumped into Kaoruhime, who had just walked in.

After seeing something on the ground, Kaoru Hime quickly lowered her face: "Xiaoyu, there won't be anything called salt in your dinner tonight." ”

"If it's for the purpose of subduing demons and eliminating demons, this little ......"

"It's a guest!" Kaoru Hime's hand knocked on the girl's little head, "Just be honest when you sneak to my house, do you know how many people are looking for you outside?"

"Those harsh people dare to disturb the time of this witch's play, it is a great crime. ”

"Okay, don't be poor, come and say hello. ”

Kaoru Hime said and pulled Jade, who was still a little guarded, to Lilith, "She's Jade, and she's a little troublesome at the moment, so stay in my house for the time being, and don't tell anyone who inquires about her location." ”

In other words, this little guy sneaked out? Could it be that the title "witch" is equivalent to "princess" in this continent?

After reporting each other's names, Yu dropped the words "One day I will retire you monsters with strange names" and hurried out to play, and snatched all the food on the table by the way. Obviously just a child at a playful age, I really don't know if she really has such ability, but she deliberately pretends to be a child. Or is it actually a child who talks big.

"Ahem. ”

Sorry Dean Frey, this really wasn't talking about you.

Kaoru looked like a nobleman, and in the conversation with her that followed, Lilith had figured out the specifics of the continent.

Although the names of each position and rank have changed, the form of rule is still no different from that of one's own continent. At the top, it is still the emperor, and after this, it is also the prince and princess. And under this, there are the titles of some officials, prime minister, prime minister...... It is equivalent to a duke, a nobleman like a marquis. However, the only difference is that it seems that few officials here have the ability to control the soldiers, unlike those nobles who can control the soldiers and are trusted by the emperor, the officials here basically have everything in their hands, that is, they have no military power.

Naturally, the military power was in the hands of the emperor, and orders were given with something called a "military talisman". This is probably a little different from my own continent. I always feel that the system here is perfect, but there is less trust between each other.

As for the position of that witch jade, it is not equivalent to a princess. If I had to say it, it was a bit similar to the position of Dean Frey.

As a profession to help the world solve their doubts, or to bless peace, although they do not have any real power, because they are supported by the people, their status has also become high. And Jade is the only candidate who can take over this generation of witches after the death of the previous witch, in fact, it is no different from a "little princess".

It's just that Jade is playful and afraid of trouble, so he basically didn't take anything seriously. For this reason, the people in the shrine where she was worked hard to arrange a "practice" for Jade, and Jade, who got the news in advance, secretly ran out and came to Kaoru Hime's house.

"It's only a matter of time before the people at the shrine find out about me here, because there are more of you guests, so I want to make a good note in advance. Kaoru said, "When someone asked, they said that Jade wasn't here. Also, I'm sorry, but you're going to have to meet some important people with my recommendation. Otherwise, it would be a great crime to hide outsiders without permission and be found out. Please wait a moment, I still have some things to do. ”

A calm, decisive, and powerful woman.

Although Kaoru Hime kept saying that she did not have any official position, it was difficult for Lilith to imagine that an ordinary person would have such a temperament close to that of an aristocracy. Coupled with the scale of this mansion, I am afraid that it is not affordable for ordinary people.

"Oh, Kaoru-san, are you going to look for Rin again?" Yu poked half of her head out from outside, "I met her yesterday." ”

"What!

"I don't know. I just know, Rin let me sue you......" Yu said and coughed twice, "A woman like you who has no temperament and no education, and will go crazy at every turn, who wants to be with you, the old lady is looking for a man!

...... It seems that this tone always feels like what Yu wants to say.

"What did she say!! if it wasn't settled, I wanted to be with her, the one who asked for food?" Kaoru Ji, who was originally very calm, suddenly burst into muscles, grabbed the long knife leaning against the wall and rushed out, "The old lady must shave her hair today!"
