I Have Transferred to the Worst Labyrinth in Another World chapter 27

27 – Leonhard’s Nation – 4

“Let it be reported.”

In the meeting room of the royal castle of Leonhardt, Arnold, the king of beastmen, was holding a meeting with the nobles.

“Currently, the demon army suffered heavy damage and seems to have retreated to the coastal base. However, the Ruthenian army is still preparing for war.”

“Your Majesty! Do you dare to watch the atrocities of the Kingdom of Ruthenia? Now that the Demon Army has retreated, we rather believe that the Nation of Guardians should attack the Kingdom of Ruthenia!”

“I agree, Your Majesty!”

Beastman King put up with a throbbing headache and gave a blow to the nobles who were talking nonsense.

“If we hit the Ruthenian army, what will the demon army remaining on the coast do?”

“They retreated with heavy losses. Then…”

“You don’t know, but the demon army that invaded this time is mostly made up of goblins. You know that goblins recover three times faster than humans, right?”

“But…”

“If we start a war against the kingdom of Ruthenia and then the demon army invades again, can you alone stop it? I don’t think so.”

The reason why the army of the beast nation is scary is because the king of beast men is the commander. In fact, the Beast Army without the Beast King was not much different from the general kingdom army. The demons are not stupid, and if the beast king invades the kingdom of Ruthenia, he will attack the capital of beast nation with a probability of almost 99%.

“Your Majesty, I have something to tell you about that.”

At that time, the Suin, who had the equivalent of a foreign minister in Korea, cleared his throat and said quietly to the Suin King.

“It is allowed.”

“It seems that the Empire’s envoys have arrived at the border fortress right now… But due to the entry ban, they camped outside the fortress for two days…”

“I see, then I issued an entry ban, didn’t I?”

The beast king declared an entry ban after the war with the demon army began. However, some doubts arose for the beast king, who had made it clear that envoys from countries with permission from some royal families would allow entry.

“Why didn’t the imperial delegation send a message?”

“I sent it…But that was the day the second princess entered the labyrinth…”

It was only then that the beast king knew why the imperial delegation was not allowed to enter. It’s just that the beast king didn’t know and ignored it.

On the day Ellie disappeared into the labyrinth of the abyss, the beastman king, whose nervousness reached its peak, had discarded all the business papers that had to be dealt with that day. Of course, does it make sense for the king of a country to do that?! If asked, there was no room for excuses, but his family was much more important to Suinwang than mere work.

“It looks like the emperor is trying to help. Apparently, the Suin Bureau is in a pretty important position.”

“Does that mean that the Empire considers our Beast Country to be a breakwater for demons?”

“Well, that may be possible. Let’s allow the imperial delegation to enter the country. Who is the representative of the delegation?”

The delegation basically consists of knights who serve as escorts, one representative representing the will of the state, and attendants who assist the representative. So, usually, the political intentions that the state was trying to express could be known by which proxy it sent.

“The first princess, Irina Hyperion, is specified as the representative of the delegation.”

“Ohhh…The Emperor seems to be taking this war quite seriously.”

The Beast King was a little surprised. I couldn’t believe it, but in the empire, the person with the highest position next to the emperor was registered as the representative of the delegation. Besides, she was not an ordinary member of the imperial family, but she was the genius Princess Irina Hyperion, nicknamed the Iron-Blooded Princess.

“Looking at the fact that even the princess was sent, it must mean that the Kingdom of Ruthenia will somehow block it… The Empire must hope that our Nation of Guardians will drive out the Demon Army as soon as possible.”

For some reason, the empire was using the arrogant nickname of the continent’s guardian and taking on the role of restraining the nations on the continent from going to war. The beast king was aware of what the empire wanted to do such a thing, but he did not tell other nobles, even his family, why. It would be an accurate expression to say that I cannot tell you precisely.

“Then, as soon as the Imperial delegation arrives, launch an all-out attack on the Demon Army base…!”

“No, that’s not allowed.”

“How is that…?”

“I noticed yesterday that the demon army is stronger than expected. Roughly, you can think that about 3 corps commanders are included in this demon army.”

“Three corps commanders?!”

The nobles were very surprised to hear the story of the beast king. I heard that Rex, the commander of the Corps of Despair, and Lilith, the Corps Commander of Dreams, were in the Demon Army, but the appearance of the third Corps Commander was unexpected.

“The 3rd corps commander is Veronica Bloodia, the slaughter corps commander. She’s a tough opponent to deal with, so let’s take a look at the movement of the demon army for a while.”

****

“Haa…”

I was lying on the bed in the VIP room at the royal palace, lost in thought. It’s been a day since I met Veronica, but the word ‘king’ that Veronica mentioned is still running through my head. To say that I am a ‘king’, Veronica must have misunderstood something. Think about it. How unrealistic it is to call a man who has been transferred to another world less than a month as a ‘king’ when the commander of the demon army suddenly appears.

Anyway, the energy I felt when I first met Veronica still makes my hands tremble. It was the first time I had such energy. To distort the mana around him just by walking… It was to the point where I doubted whether it was actually a creature. If the King of Beasts competes with Veronica one-on-one, will he be able to win with certainty? If you ask me that question, I will definitely answer ‘no’ without hesitation.

The experience of facing Veronica to that extent came as a shock to me. I thought she was on the strong side, but looking at her, I felt how foolish her idea was. The world was really wide and there were many monsters.

“What is Ellie trying to do?”

Ellie is currently under a curfew. She may have made a decision to be wary of Veronica as the Beast King, but since her time has stopped, it will be a bit unfair for Ellie, who has not been able to feel Veronica directly. From her Ellie’s point of view, it would be no different from going out with me and coming back, but the person who would be her father had ordered her to go out.

‘Shall we go for a walk?’

I decided to take a walk in the garden outside the royal castle for a while to evoke the uncomfortable feeling. Ellie’s mother, Angelica’s taste was reflected in the garden of King Leonhardt’s palace, and her beautiful roses were splendidly arranged by color. Thanks to her, as she walked through her rose garden, she was fascinated by the beauty of the roses and her hair was clear.

-Kikkik…

It is late at night, approaching midnight at the present time. I quietly opened the door to avoid waking others, and cautiously made my way to the garden. After walking for about 5 minutes along the now familiar road, the rose garden, whose beauty was not completely hidden even at night, spread out in front of me.

“I’m not this emotional person.”

According to her lady-in-waiting, among the roses in the rose garden, there are roses that exude a scent that makes people feel at ease. It’s probably because of that rose that I feel lightheaded every time I come to the rose garden, but it’s true that the beauty of the rose helps me feel a bit less.

Of course, isn’t it an illusion because you have a [Cool mind]? If you ask me, I had no intention of denying it. It’s true that I liked this rose garden anyway.

“…Bats?”

While I was walking around the garden, I noticed a bat staring at me from the branch of a large tree planted in the garden.

Looking at those bats somehow reminded me of my childhood memories.

When I was in middle school, I went to a middle school in a remote countryside, and I remembered bats occasionally coming into my class and kicking them out with a broom.

Anyway, I was a little surprised that there were bats in Leonhard Castle. Most wild animals trying to enter the castle would be chased out by attendants, but I was a little curious about how this bat got in.

‘Well… It doesn’t matter.’

Anyway, I don’t care if there are guests or bats. The people to care about must be the servants of this castle.

“Hmm? Who is that?”

At that moment, a woman with bobbed orange hair was standing in the rose garden a little away from where I was standing.

In this castle, the only woman with her orange bobbed hair was her princess, Ellie, so I approached her gladly.

“Ellie?”

“Ah… Gaon?”

As expected, Ellie, who has a beautiful face as I expected, turned her head and looked at me in surprise.

“What’s going on with Gaon’s rose garden?”

“I just went for a walk because I couldn’t sleep.”

“Really? Neither do I… I really like this garden.”

Ellie lowered her stance by bending her knees and stroked an orange rose that shone like the color of her own hair.

“You know what? These orange roses emit a scent that makes people feel at ease.”

“Is this the famous rose?”

“That’s right. That’s why this rose garden is so popular in the royal castle.”

Ellie smiled and stood up slowly. She then came up to my nose and handed me a rose.

“Is this…?”

“It’s an orange rose, I’ll give it to you as a gift.”

The rose Ellie gave me was an orange rose, and it was also the rarest kind in the garden.

By the way, where did you pick the orange roses from?

“Orange roses are also used as pain relievers, so there is a separate cultivation area in the royal family, so I brought them from there. They didn’t bloom as beautifully as the orange flowers in this garden, but I brought them the prettiest ones. I tried to hand them over tomorrow, but it failed. .”

“Thank you, I don’t have a hobby of collecting flowers, but since you gave it to me, I’ll keep it.”

Ellie muttered quietly, turning her face red at my words.

From noble mtl dot com

“…The orange rose…Was accepted…”

“What?”

“Oh no!”

Ellie turned her head away trying to hide her blush-red face. I wondered where Ellie was sick, but she didn’t seem to care.

“It’s getting late. I’ll go in first.”

“Okay, good night.”

“Yes, I can’t go out, but let’s have tea together tomorrow.”

With those words, Eli left the garden and entered the castle. I wandered around the garden for a while after that, and tried to return to my room with the orange rose Ellie had given me.

But I felt something strange. For a moment, I felt as if someone was watching me.

‘What…?’

I turned my head in the direction I could feel the gaze. Then, there, the bat I had just seen was looking at me with its red eyes shining.

“…Is it an illusion…?”

You seem too sensitive these days. To waste one’s attention on one bat like that. I sighed and started walking again.

But at that moment, the door to the garden connected to the castle suddenly slammed shut, forcing me to stop.

Kwaang-!

“Crazy?”

I could feel the flow of mana as the door closed. This was clearly the wizard’s work.

What wizard would do such a boring thing?

But I guessed to some extent who the culprit was.

As far as I know, there was only one person who could commit such a bold act in the castle where the Beast King resides.

“Here again…?”

“Didn’t I say I’ll see you again soon?”

“…..I didn’t want to see you again…”
