Infinite Gacha - Chapter 206

In his office in his castle in the capital of the racial kingdom, the king calls the first prince Claw and the first princess Lilith of the racial (human) kingdom and tells them in a heavy tone of voice.

It seems that about 2,000 of the beast race were literally all killed by the 'Witch of the Giant Tower' ......."

What's going on?

The siblings gasp in unison.

Even Lilith, who has been secretly communicating with the Lights, was taken aback by the news of the "beastman massacre.

undefinedShe had never heard such a story from the Lights, so it was completely new to her.

The father, the king, continues to speak in a heavy tone of voice.

The king father continued in a heavy voice, "Due to this incident, we consider the 'Giant Tower' and the 'Giant Tower Witch' to be a threat, and the Majin Nation has taken the lead in discussing how to deal with the 'Giant Tower' at the Six Principality Conference (a conference of the six races). The exact date and time are still being worked out, but both of you should be prepared and ready to go to the meeting at any time.

"Wow, I understand, Father."

Claud, the elder brother, paled at the unexpected mention of the king's words and nodded his head in agreement.

Lilith, on the other hand, was not so sure.

She was surprised and upset by the "Beast Race Massacre," but used it as a chance to persuade her father, the king.

She said, "...... Father, if this report is true, the power of the 'Witch of the Gigantic Tower' who brought the Elven Queen Nation and even the Beast Race to their knees is real!　Please take this opportunity to borrow the help of the "Witch of the Giant Tower" to improve the status of the Human Kingdom and break away from the domestication of the cattle state!　Let's aim to improve the status of the race (human)!"

............"

Not only my father, but even my brother Claw puts his hand to his forehead as if his head hurts at this statement.

Lilith, who is confident that she is doing the right thing, frowns unhappily at their attitude.

The king tells her as he would tell a young child.

'Lilith ...... cannot join hands with the "Witch of the Giant Tower". It is too dangerous.

Father, what is so dangerous about the "Witch of the Gigantic Tower"?　She is an ally and protector of the race with her "absolute independence of the race (human). In fact, when I went there to inspect the area, the people who were allowed to live around the tower were guaranteed food, clothing, shelter, and safety, and they were all living in comfort!　You have seen it, haven't you, brother?　What is so dangerous about the Witch of the Gigantic Tower?

The king lightly sighs in front of his daughter, who is as excited as a wild horse and refutes him.

Lilith,...... you really don't know what the danger is?"

Yes, I have no idea. I would very much like to hear your father's opinion.

The king lets out another sigh and explains.

The 'Witch of the Giant Tower' brought down the Elven Queenate and then slaughtered the beast race, you know?　According to the legend, the beast race captured humans in an illegal way and tried to use them as hostages to gain access to the "Giant Tower," thus incurring the wrath of the "Witch of the Giant Tower. It is indeed very unwilling for the beast race to capture a race (human) in an illegal way. As a racial kingdom, we should convey our regrets. ...... However, the power relations between countries have changed too much at any cost. It is too much of a shock to the leaders of each country that they have literally killed everyone, including about 2,000 of the beast race, even those with high levels of combat ability... ..."

He said, "Well, it certainly shocked me too that we killed about 2,000 beastmen, but ...... that's a war that was started by the beastmen. It is a self-inflicted wound. And more to the point, I believe that the beast race that started the whole thing, that took the race hostage in an illegal manner, is entirely responsible!

Lilith is right. But just because you have the power doesn't mean everything will come true. How will the demon nations and the dragon empire react...... and isn't it also true that we never know when our race will incur the wrath of the 'Witch of the Gigantic Tower'?"

............ witch has a 'race (human) absolute independence principle'. She would never do to a race what she did to the beast race!

Lilith countered, but was at a loss for words for a moment when the king pointed out the problem.

She has been communicating with the lights in secret.

Light, the real master of the "Giant Tower," is very polite and sincere in his dealings with her, but it is also true that he is as powerful as a god or a demon king.

Even though he advocates "absolute independence of the human race," this does not mean that any human can do anything. If a person takes what is given to him for granted and steps over the line that he holds as a rule in his heart, he will be treated mercilessly, even if he is the one who has been allowed to be close to him.

If the scope of this extends to the entire race (human). ......

It was impossible to say never, and he could not immediately refute it.

The king saw right through Lilith's heart and told her, "I am not a human being, but I am a human being.

He said, "In our dealings with the other five species, we humans are in a position of being treated coldly, but we are well aware of what we can say and do to provoke their wrath. However, the "Witch of the Gigantic Tower" is not so. If we were to pander to the "Witch of the Gigantic Tower" and accidentally incur her wrath, we would not only remain a nation of cattle, but we could even cause the extinction of a race of people. As the King of the Human Kingdom, I cannot take such a gamble."

............"

Lilith understands with her whole body, not just her head, that her father's intentions are firm.

As a daughter, she is convinced that her father, an "old man who hates change," will never change his opinion, no matter how many more words she has to say. She is convinced as a daughter that her father, who is an "old man who hates change," will never change his mind, because she will become accustomed to any misery as age passes, and without change, her position and life will be secure.

The king himself was not convinced by his daughter Lilith, but he understood that she was not willing to engage in any further verbal battles, so he dismissed her once again.

The king's brother, Claud, looked at Lilith with pity, saying, "Do you still not understand reality and cling to your blue-skinned ideals?

Lilith felt her brother's gaze on her back, pushed the discomfort into her heart, and went back to her room.

Once back in her room, she heads for the living room window.

Fake Yume, who has recently gotten used to her job and is said to be a future official maid, pulls out a chair and Lilith sits down.

As she sits down, Nono, the head maid, makes a pot of tea and places it in front of Lilith.

'Thanks for the ......, Nono.'

Knowing that she is an interloper of the Majin Nation, Lilith was wary of "poisoning" for a moment, but remembered that there was no possibility of that when she did not act specifically herself, and thanked her after a slight delay.

Nono felt a slight discomfort, but she did not care and proceeded with her story.

'...... Apparently, His Majesty the King's story was not a very good one.

Yes, I know," he said. It wasn't a very pleasant talk for me. Anyway, Nono, there will be a meeting in the near future, at the latest in a few months, in the Principality of Six. Please get ready to pack your bags."

You said, "...... Six Principality Conference?　I thought we still had a few years to spare."

A lot has happened. A lot.

There is no way she could have said that the Six Principality Conference would be held a few years early because of the massacre of the beast race by the "Witch of the Giant Tower".

Nono and the other maids did not think that Lilith, who was royalty, would tell them everything from one to ten, and did not pursue the matter any further.

Lilith took the tea Nono had brewed and thought about it as she drank.

(I am sure that no matter what happens in the future, your father never intends to join hands with the "Witch of the Gigantic Tower". In other words, as long as your father sits on the throne, the race (human) kingdom will continue to exist as a cattle state, and the race (human) will continue to be exploited and remain at the bottom, unable to complain about being killed. ......)

Lilith raises her eyebrows in discomfort.

(That is absolutely unacceptable!　It's true, "Witch of the Giant Tower" - the Wrights have some things that ordinary people can't think of, but their power is real!　The only way for our race to be on equal footing with the other five species is to join forces with the Wrights!)

But even if I were to take my father, the king, and my brother, Claw, to see the lights, they would never change their opinions.

(...... I still have to stand for the future of my race, don't I? The investigation of the interloper is still in progress, but it is convenient that the Six Principality Conference, which will take place in a few years' time, has been moved up. With the help of Mr. Wright, we have eliminated your father. I must take my place as queen and protect the future of our race!　(For this reason, I must contact Mr. Wright and others as soon as possible and ask them to lay the groundwork. ......)

Lilith keeps the blue flame of justice burning in her heart while thinking about future arrangements.

Unaware of this, Nono, an interloper from the Majin Nation, was serving as usual.

Even though she has known Lilith for a long time, she could not see into Lilith's heart.
