Chapter 17 – Is it NDK in various ways?

Side : Seraria ・ Nou ・ Rochelle

I never thought that I would stand on the stage and play a part of this drama. Although I don’t like taking part in a farce, when it was for Herge, I had no problem.

On the first one, I could see that damned old man. On the second one, I could see the soldiers. And on the third one…

(Messenger) 『Loire-Sama!! It’s an emergency!! Let’s return to the castle!! The King and the Princess were assassinated!! The castle is in total chaos right now !!』

(Messenger) 『Please depart immediately. I may leave now.』

Yeah, this one standing outside the Dungeon is Loire.

It made me realize how strong he was. In a completely different way than myself.
His plan was to show off everything happening outside to the soldiers inside.

 

After Loire sent the messenger back, and without knowing anything about the plan, he started to chuckle to himself.

(Soldier X) 『Loire-Sama, now Roshuru is almost in your possession.』

(Soldier X) 『However, what to do with the soldiers remaining inside the Dungeon?』

(Soldier X) 『What about the foolish soldier, charmed by the Dungeon Master, remaining at the entrance?』

(Soldier X) 『Huu, what do you mean?』

(Soldier X) 『Is seems, you already planned to abandon the soldiers. With this, Loire-Sama’s reward, will be guaranteed once you return.』
(Loire) 『It’s as you said !! Everything was a part of my plan!!』

So foolish, I didn’t think he would reveal himself so openly. It’s only because of the place that he talked with this dignified manner.
Also, because the remaining 500 soldiers were definitely loyal to Loire.

(Yuki) 「… King Roshuru, what kind of feeling do you have now?」

(Yuki)「Well, try to to hold it mentally until Seraria return. Everything will be up to her and Herge.」

Yuki said that while looking at Herge and Me.

Now was the time to start the real thing.

(Herge)「Did you hear that, Soldiers of Roshuru?! This is the truth!! You guys have only been dancing between the palm of Loire since the beginning!! I will not sermon you for what you did before… Rather, I wish to express my gratitude for your loyalty! I and Seraria Nou Roshuru…」
(Seraria) 「This Herge Rau Roshuru, If you believe in her words, then raise your sword !!]」

The soldiers were silent on the other side of the monitor. But one soldier advanced, sword hanged up. It was Kur, the direct commander of my army.

(Kur)『I pledged my loyalty to Roshuru and Seraria!!』

(Soldiers)『『『WoooOOOOOOO!!』』』

The soldiers raised their voices loudly, along with their swords.

(Seraria) 「Kur, let’s head straight for the castle and take Loire’s head.」
(Kur) 『Yes !! I abide!!』

When Herge and I reached the soldiers, the head of the Royal Guards, Aries Lester, gave his sword to Kur and knelt before us.

(Seraria) 「Kur, what’s the meaning?」

(Seraria) 「Aries…」

(Seraria) 「That won’t do.」

(Seraria) 「You heard Loire’s speech earlier. My father and my Elder Sister… The king and the Princess might be dead. Nonetheless, the country is still here!! So why is your reason to wield that sword ?! Was it only for the sake of the King !?」

(Seraria) 「Protecting the Country and the King are all for the sake of our people. If you still have this feeling, take up your sword once more Aries, for the people!!」
(Aries) 「Yaa! This sword. It’s an honor to wield my sword for the Princess and the People !!」

*Sigh*, I somehow succeed and overcame it. I’m not good with speeches, unlike my *CENSURED* old man.
(TL : Feel free to replace it “クソ”-“Kuso”. Fufufuffu)

(Mauve)『Eheh, as expected she only lives in the battlefield. She’s cool nonetheless.』

(Sixth King of Roshuru)『Fufufu, why don’t we let her become the King instead of this one?』

Krr, Even if it was an emergency, to hear them like this is.. Annoying!!

side : Aria ・Ral・Roshuru

(TL : Since the side changed, The bracket 「」 and 『』 changed altogether.)

(Sixth King of Roshuru)「Look like it’s our turn to act now.」
(Aria)「Yes, Father.」

As we received the usual report about the advance of Seraria’s Army, we heard another interesting report.
The only thing left was to deal with Loire. But we received a suggestion. That Loire might find an excuse and escape if he learnt about the assassination, so we too measures.

(Sixth King of Roshuru)「This one never thought he would have to fake his death.」
(Aria)「Nonetheless, I believe it is a good plan. If we can capture Loire, we will remove the root of the evil. If he does not confess, we can execute him with all the 」

A soldier came while I was speaking and started to report.

(Soldier Y) 「Minister Loire has been seen!! We are done with our arrangements according to the plan. However, if the King doesn’t personally pretend to be the corpse, i’m afraid that…」

With an expression that looked really worried, the soldier reported everything to my Father.

(Sixth King of Roshuru)「Don’t worry, Even if this one is already this old, this one is still able to wield his sword. This one is more than enough to deal with Loire!! Can you see this makeup? Doesn’t this one look alike to a dead person?」

(Aria)「Fufu fu… It seems that your dead face is excellent, right father?」

(Sixth King of Roshuru)「Hun, Aria will wear the same thing. Therefore, we will be acting as dead people. The remaining part is up to you.」
(Soldier Y)「Ha!! You can leave it to me!!」

Having said that, he immediately started to move and left the room. This soldier will definitely become something big in the future, because he remained calm regarding our jokes.

(Sixth King of Roshuru)「But to sleep together… When was the last time we did it?」

(Sixth King of Roshuru)「Somehow, we have to thank Yuki for his plan.」
(Aria)「You are right.」

We could heard footsteps coming from the hallway. The door was opened without reserve.

(Loire)「King!! Princess Aria!!」

(Loire)「Heeee!! Calm down?!A lie… The King, in such a way…」

Loire shrieked, heading toward us.
Although I couldn’t see because my eyes were closed, How on heart was he able to display such a disgusting face toward us.

(Loire)「Leave… I want to have one last talk with the King. So, leave…」
(Loire’s follower)「Please, don’t openly do anything rash…」

After that, Loire’s follower disappeared. As soon as he would reach a place further away, he’ll get caught.
Silence wrapped the room, and after a for a short while, we heard a bitter laugh.

(Loire) 「Kuku…If it’s not the Mighty King? Everything went as planned after all. With this, the contract held with Holy Country Ritea is completed. The fake Herge died, and all the other members of royalty from Roshuru died as well. Even if Seraria and Herge return, they would not be able to do anything now. I wish a peaceful life for all of you in Heaven!!」

It was not necessary to explain any further to his retainers when he revealed everything like this.
I wanted to see the faces made by the elders waiting inside the next room.

(Sixth King of Roshuru) 「Fuu…. Is this one looking too old to deal with someone like you, Loire?」
(Loire) 「What? Ki..King!?」

When I opened my eyes, father was already wielding his favorite sword.

It took only five seconds and one of Loire’s arm fell on top of the carpet.
(TL : I got a challenge for you, if anyone can come with a better translation : ボトリと絨毯にロワールの腕が落ちます。 Especially with this really confusing part : ボトリと)

(Loire)「Uggiyyyaaaa!! Wh…Why!?」

(Loire)「!!」

Like this, Loire was brought away.

(Aria)「I was not able to take my turn.」
I said so, and got up.

(Sixth King of Roshuru)「You should rather worry about what will happen next, a big hurdle is coming.」

At the same time my father said this, the door was, once again, opened.
The same soldier from a short while ago rushed inside, displaying an ugly face.

(Soldier Y) 「I have an urgent matter to confer!! One of Loire’s underling was within the army Seraria-Sama persuaded!!」

(Soldier Y) 「That, during the march of Seraria-sama’s army, he drew is sword toward Herge-Sama. Although Seraria-Sama didn’t meet any problem…」
(Aria)「Imposible…!?」

(Soldier Y) 「He, Herge-Sama got pierced by the sword… and died!!」

This death was the concluding touch.
