"Angry? Why are you angry?" The man chuckled.
'Just hold it in until he leaves….'
"Also, this status is a bit different from what I was given… Thank you very much… my subordinate," The man taunts once more before warping away.
"BASTARD!" I shout before breaking my throne into pieces.
'I guess you didn't swallow as much pride as I thought,'
Soon, the kings and remaining nobles around reawoke, and all began to question so much that I began to wonder if they were incapable of assuming anything.
"All of you shut up," I say and gesture for my side, the one with frost moths on it, to leave as we had no more business here.
"A-At least tell us what just happened!" The bunny king shouts.
"We're continuing with the plan. Just make sure to follow through because the demons aren't going to do shit right now. They're planning so stuff," I say as Amanda wraps her arm around my shoulder.
"Hey," I heard her mutter, and when I turned to look at her, I noticed she was glaring straight into my soul.
"What?"
"I heard your conversation with the demon… You better tell you were fucking joke; otherwise, I'm going to kill you right here,"
Her fingers dug into my shoulder as we exited the castle and trailed up the slightly raised path made from ice.
"Don't worry… I'll act as a double agent,"
"Don't bullshit ,"
"Of course, I'm only going to be giving away fake information for when they ask for so information on the frost moth kingdom… I'll have your kingdom be the sole survivor,"
She continued to glare at as we entered the sa carriage.
"Why is she here?" I asked Amanda as I glanced towards Loni, who was sweating bullets as she sat next to the queen.
"Miss, I have placed her there in order to calm the both of you down. And though this may not be my thing to say, I hope you both settle down; otherwise, this entire trip will co crashing down into oblivion," The leader of the knights says as she opens the window to the carriage.
He rode on the frozen monster horse which galloped beside us.
"M-Miss… Y-you were so cool," Loni says as she looks at with a deep stare.
I blushed a bit as her complint cheered up from my sour mood by just a bit…
I guess I won't cheat on her with so demons…
"W-well, of course, I was. Nobody does it better than ," I say, puffing my chest out proudly while Amanda just rolled her eyes.
"Your royal highness, may I ask why your mood is so sour?" Loni asks after giving a warm smile.
"No, you may not ask," She responds bluntly, causing Loni to hang her head a bit.
"Look, you made her sad,"
"Shut the hell up… I don't want to be talking to you right now… I'm trying to think how we can wiggle our way out of this fucking ss of a situation,"
As soon as she grits her teeth, she emits a dark blue aura that causes Loni to shiver in fear, so I protected her with [Sirens Apostle: Forbidden Enhancent].
A black aura surrounded her, and her breathing slowed as the aura wrapped around her, almost like a warm blanket.
"*sigh*... Anyway, Loni, do you have a husband or boyfriend?" I asked, and she was startled by the question.
"U-uhhh… Ummmm… N-no, I don't. May I ask why?"
"Then, would you like to go on a date with when we get back? I'm sure it will be fun,"
"S-sure… I don't mind,"
Amanda stared at Loni, who was blushing intently but had no intent to harm her, so I just continued to ignore her… until she said one thing.
"Oh, then would you like to go on a date with ? Your, royal highness?" Amanda asks as she cups her chin and pulls her in towards her.
"W-what,"
"Oh, don't be so confused, Arpious. If you have a chance, I have a chance as well. It's not like you own her… right?" She asks Loni once again, and her face flushed a bright tomato red.
"Tch… You have to go on a date with ," I say, pulling Loni to my side and wrapping my arm tightly around her shoulder.
But, it seems like I fell for her trap as Amanda suddenly smirked before turning to look back out the window.
I could also see the leader of the knights giving a thumbs up with a drop of blood sliding down from his nostril.
'You actually fell for her bait,' My inner demon said, but I was too busy blushing as I realized how close Loni was.
"P-Please let go," She muttered.
"A-ah, sorry about that. I-I shouldn't have acted so rashly,"
"It's fine…."
It was an awkwardly long ride until we made a pit stop for the day, where we then set up a few campfires, and food was cooked on top of them.
It was quite delicious as the at was high quality and the frozen vegetables were strange, but I wasn't really complaining as they tasted good as well.
There was also this sauce that we sprayed along the top of the freshly cooked at which enhanced the juicy flavor even more.
Just thinking about it made hungry, even after I had three large portions, which still didn't satisfy due to my belly skill.
"I forgot I had this," I muttered as I stared up at my status.
[Gluttons Stomach]
It made much hungrier than I should normally be, and it was a bit annoying as when I was hungry, I felt as if I was about to starve to death instead of feeling a bit peckish.
"So, when are you eting up with the demons?" Amanda asks after she pulled to the side of the party, which was roaring in excitent and fun.
"Once I get back to the kingdom… Apparently, they'll send sobody for m-"
SHING
I imdiately summoned my scythe and swung it around the tree, grazing the neck of sobody who pressed their back against the opposite side of the tree I was leaning against.
"Oh, a demon," Amanda mutters as I draw the blade closer against the demon cloaked in black.
"P-please have rcy… I-I just ca here to deliver a ssage," A man's voice emits from under the black cloak.
"Speak… Quick,"
"Y-yes. S-so, the commander wants you to also bring a few delicacies from the Moth Kingdom,"
"Oh, am I his errand girl now?"
"I have no right to comnt," The man mutters before slipping back into the shadows below him.
He's making a fool of .
I gripped my hand tightly in anger but slowly released it as getting angry now wouldn't provide any benefit.
"*sigh*... This is going to be interesting," I mutter as I take a puff of smoke from the pipe.
…
The next day we were back on the "road" as we weaved in between trees and trudged through the thick two feet of snow.
Well, I was relaxing inside a carriage, so I didn't have to deal with the annoyances outside.
"M-Miss… I-I like you," Loni says all of a sudden.
I didn't know how to react, as unlike with my wives before, I actually felt strong feelings towards this girl in front of .
"I-I like you as well," I say, hanging my head in embarrassnt.
"R-really?"
"Yep…"
Suddenly, she got up from her seat and sat right next to before wrapping her arm around my shoulder and hugging tightly.
"You're so hesitant… It's so cute," She mutters as her face continues to flush red in embarrassnt.
"Girls… I'm still here…" Amanda says, but I shot her a glare in order for her to not ruin the mood that had just been built up.
I also saw the leader of the knights, once again, giving a thumbs-up as he trods next to the carriage on his trusty, strong horse.
It was an impressively large and muscular horse that looked as if it would eat horses back on earth for breakfast.
The giant icicle protruding from its forehead made it worthy of being called a Veined Ice Unicorn as its veins were made completely of freezing cold blood.
The blood allows its horn to develop into an icicle, giving it its own distinct and unique trait.
"Co on, kiss already," Amanda groaned.
"I will take it slowly… So please don't be so nervous," I say to Loni, who was frightened by Amanda's words.
"You're so cute," I muttered into her ear, and I saw her visibly shiver.
"Well, you're cuter," She says as she smiles towards … and I visibly shivered as well.
"Two switches… Nice," Amanda muttered.
…
After a few more days of travel, we ran into a massive blizzard that prevented us from going any farther, so we took place in a giant igloo made from ice that Amanda created.
It was so warm in here that you wouldn't even be able to tell that it was blizzarding… until you looked through the transparent bricks of ice.
The snowstorm was terribly strong, and we would probably be forced to wait it out for a couple days as the horses won't be able to pull us through it.
"*sigh*... What to do now," I muttered.
