Demon Noble Girl ~Story of a Careless Demon~

Chapter 234

I was not particularly intimidating, but when I called out to her with just letting my presence flow, the air froze even though my voice wasn’t even that loud.

“Oh, Yurushia-san, you’re still bothering me! Don’t be fooled, I’m with you!”

I guess I was the villainess in Ester’s mind, after all.

When Ester raised his voice, their eyes, which had been momentarily brought back to their senses by my voice, became cloudy again. I could see that Ester was serious. It seemed that I ended up giving her a strong impression over a period of several days.

Normally, I would have interacted with her in [villainess Mode], but this time I was different.

I was a duchess, a princess of the Holy Kingdom, a royalty, but I have another “Characteristic”.

(Fanny, Go!)

(Yes!)

“Gentlemen, do you dislike the Holy Kingdom?”

As I quietly ask this, the eyes of the lower-class nobles and commoner boys who had been showing hostility towards me wavered slightly. Simultaneously, Fanny applied an effect on me that should have made me sparkle.

“Why do people fight when the threat of the Demon Lord is gone and there will be peace? Many people were hurt in the civil war. Why should we fight over it?”

[…]

The boys looked upset at my words. Fel taught me that the trick was to speak at this time with a slightly stronger ending.

“Oh, because you are tormenting everyone, I am…”

“I’m sure I’m not perfect in some ways. It took me two years to come back after defeating the evil.”

The argument itself was changed to cover Ester’s voice as she started to scream. Min taught me that this was a common technique used by con artists.

…I wondered what those two maids were doing before.

“This country belongs to those who live here and love this country. Please lend me your hands!”

[…Saint-sama…]

Sneakily saying nice things and nailing people from other countries to stay out of the way, stimulating the patriotism of the boys.

At my words in [Saint-sama mode], supervised by numerous people, the haze disappeared from their eyes and they regained their perfect sanity.

But…for some reason, the faces of everyone staring at me were red. Did they have a fever when their fascination broke?

“Oh, you, why,”

“Ester-sama, incitement in another country is a crime. I will report this to the Silver Church.”

“What?”

Ester’s eyes widened at my words, as if she had not expected this. Rather, you were a princess of a country… you should have common-sense enough to know that, you know?

“It’s not my fault!”

Ester tried to run away with her usual line, but this time I was not going to let her get away. Axel, who was not here, was waiting in the academy with a full force to secure Ester.

This time, however, Ester’s entourage seemed to be a little different. Heading toward Ester’s entourage, who were waiting in the corner, the people whose eyes had completely lost their color pulled out their swords.

They must have been cornered pretty hard. They seem to have a strong charm on them, whether it was used with medicine or some other special charm, such as a contact-based one.

They caused problems in other countries, so they should be caught. right?

“Come on, do your best for me!”

“…ugh”

Ester grabbed the boy’s arm, and a boy warrior appeared with unsteady steps from behind the entourage.

“…Ru…shia.”

“Noel…”

As if trying to hold something back, Noel put one hand on his head while holding on to his sword with a trembling hand.

I see…you had already taken that kind of step. This price would not be light, Ester-chan….
