The Chosen Path Is

“Le, let go! Do you think you can do something like this to me!?”

The King who shouts loudly despite having a rope wound around his body……no, he's an Earl now huh. Amongst the other ministers, there are half of them who conform to being Earls and half of them who have given up.

However, it's so d.a.m.n noisy that he keeps shouting. Even though I'm already irritated as it is because of the G.o.ddess, him shouting at me like this makes me want to hurry up and kill him.

But for now, I'll firmly endure it. It's not me who will do it to them. I take a glance beside me and look away.

“Shut up for a bit, Earl Mestodono. I have reached the limit of my tolerance with the incident this time around. I'll have you people receive the appropriate punishment”

“Have us receive punishment, you say! What authority do you have to say something like that! Someone like you, you are no more than garbage before Fistorisama! Us who can be used by that person is above garbage like you people!”

The Earl who spouts some incomprehensible a.s.sertion. They certainly had something done to them. The Earl from before is not the kind of person who says things that are this weird……probably. In reality, even Fia is facing towards the Earl like she's looking at someone she's met for the first time.

Furthermore, that vibe is not only from the Duke, the other Ministers and even the Crown Prince are like that so I suppose they certainly had something done to them.

I ignore the shouting Dukes and look towards Fia. It's fine even if I do it but, I suppose it's better to let her take the responsibility.

Maybe it's because Fia understood my intention as well, for a moment, she made a sorrowful look but when she closes her eyes and raises her face once, with the look of the Princess like when she confronted us for the first time……no, from now on it's with the look of a Queen, she looked at the Earls.

“Chichiue, I will have you step down from the throne”

“What are you saying, Fia. This country is going to change from now on. Even so, you are telling me to step down? If so, Fia, you are being deceived by that guy over there huh!”

“……Chichiue”

“In the first place, Fia, it would not have turned out like this if you had not lost! Could it be, you had this intention from the start and sold the country! You betrayer! I have no daughter like you!”

……I can't bear hearing this. Even if he's being brainwashed, those aren't words that should be said to one's own daughter. I as well, if I was told something like that by Kasan when she was alive, I'm confident that my heart will break.

However, Fia, even while making a bitter expression, drew a spare sword that's not the broken sword she personally carries and brandished her sword as it is. Maybe because he never would've thought that he would be cut, the Earl's head fell while it still has a blank look.

“……I will rule this Mestoa Kingdom from now on! As Queen Akfia・Mestoa! If you say you will oppose me, you people will also become like Chichiue!”

Fia who points her sword at the ministers and declares. Unable to acknowledge that, the ministers shout ‘traitor', ‘usurp', and so forth, and Fia cut down those who shouted that one after another. Maybe because the ministers also judged that Fia is serious, they finally quiet down when their numbers halved.

Those who survived were made to go up by the skeletons and the ones remaining in the bas.e.m.e.nt are only me, Liscia, Mylene, Nero and Fia. Mars and Tierra brought the children who were in danger and are returning home.

Fia stares frozenly at the corpse that was her father. Well, it can't be helped huh. We quietly leave and head towards where Mars and the others are. Although it's something she herself decided, I guess she needs to sort out her mind. I'll let her be alone for a bit.

“Fuu, I'm backー”

“Welcome back, Fistorisama”

A man who kneels on one knee and lowers his head beside the bed I was sleeping in. My servant, Archangel who commands the Angels Squad, the unit under my direct supervision, Sigurd, was waiting for me to wake up.

“Eeh, I'm back, Sigurd. Anything strange happened??”

“Not in particular. If I have to say something then I suppose the Holy King came for an audience”

Aa, that fatty huh. That man, maybe he thinks he's remarkable or something, he looks at me who's a G.o.ddess with eyes filled with l.u.s.t. I thought of killing him but, he obeys my orders so I let the timing for the slip.

“And, this time”

“Aa, that's right, I was hindered by someone who possessed that person's power. Even the modified soldiers were easily killed”

“That is……then shall we go?”

“It's fine. It's not something to the extent that it needs you guys to appear. More importantly, what about the Heroes? Was there any contact?”

“No, still nothing”

Muuー, boring. This is also all that man's fault! It's because I was killed at that time that the power I had originally possessed weakened and I have to spend more time to gather that person's power. You really are annoying huh, Darx.

Besides, the man I met today. Of all things, he possesses the same power as Darx. Aa! I'd have gone to kill both of them if my powers were perfect!

……Well, whatever. As long as I know where they are, I have numerous means to deal with them.

“Call for the Holy King”

“Is that fine?”

“Eeh, I don't know what he wants to say but I'll listen to it. In exchange for that, I'll have him do what needs to be done”

I'll definitely make that two people knee before me and when they are begging for their life, I'll kill them with my own hands.
