Chapter 120: Royal Capital Ul and New Status
Later, that night――
「Everyone, we have arrived at the royal capital, 〝Ul?」
Ciel spoke as everyone descended from the carriage.
The city in front of Aria and co. was spread along with flowers blooming everywhere.
Unlike Labyrinth city, it wasn’t surrounded by ramparts. It was an open city.
「Such… a beautiful city.」
「Nya, the stone buildings contrast well with the blooming flower.」
The beautiful scenery of the city had captivated both Aria and Vulcan.
At the center of the city were a plaza and buildings surrounded by a field of blue flowers. The innermost white building seed like the royal palace.
Right now, the setting sun was casting its light on it, giving it an orange shade. It looked like a fantastical, dreamlike scenery.
（Usalda Pekura’s royal capital, Ul, I heard the rumor about it being a beautiful city in my previous life, but I never expected that even “beautiful” is an understatent to describe this scenery.）
Tama, who had been stowed in between Aria’s twin lons, also looked at the fantastical scenery of the city with entranced eyes.
「Everyone, follow . I’ll guide you to my mansion. Let’s stay there for tonight.」
Ciel said as she turned Noir, Freya, and the carriage into their arc ball forms. She then stored them away.
Even though it would’ve been faster to reach the mansion with the carriage, Ciel held back on that thought after she saw the fascinated looks on Aria and co’s faces. She decided to slowly walk and let them enjoy the scenery.
「What’s the na of this flower, Ciel-sama?」
As they walked, May pointed at the flower growing at the edges of the main street.
「It’s 〝Lucy?. Although it looks like a beautiful flower right now, it’ll shed light during the night.」
「Fa~! I’ve never heard about such a flower! I can’t wait for night!」
May, who had shown her terrifying power as the archmage’s daughter just a few hours ago, went back to being an adorable loli as soon as she saw the flowers.
Aria and co enjoyed their stroll in the city until they arrived at Ciel’s mansion.
Ciel’s mansion was an elegant, three-story building.
However, the thing that attracted Aria and co’s attention wasn’t the building; it was the mansion’s garden.
The garden was vast and filled with nurous Lucy flowers. It even had a ten ters wide artificial lake.
「King, Noir, Freya, thanks a lot for your hard work in this long journey.」
Ciel tossed her arc balls out again as she said those words.
Surrounded by blue light, King appeared in the lake, followed by Noir and Freya appearing in front of the mansion.
Could it be that King’s arc ball has so sort of special function?
After all, King, who had been thirty ters large when the group had seen it for the first ti, was now only five ters large right now.
That aside.
Ciel walked toward the mansion’s door, then the door opened from the inside.
「Welco back, Ciel-sama.」
A girl clad in maid attire appeared from inside of the mansion.
「I’m ho, 〝Mari?.」
Ciel replied as she nodded to the maid.
Then, Ciel turned toward Aria and co. to introduce the maid.
「She’s my caretaker, Mari the maid. Feel free to ask her if you need sothing during your stay in my ho.」
Mari the maid bowed to Aria and co. imdiately after the introduction.
Maybe that was what one would expect from a hero, a gorgeous mansion and maid ca as a set.
Mari guided Aria and co. toward the parlor.
Then, it was ti for them to move on to room assignnt since one room was enough for two people.
May was assigned the sa room as Cedric since Cedric agreed to stay in the sa room with her.
Aria and co looked at Cedric as if to say “what about Cedric’s misogyny?” But…
「You’re right. Even though we’re from different eras, let’s sleep together like a family.」
Cedric accepted the suggestion with such a reason.
（Eh? Cedric-sama…）
（Could it be that eting May has awakened his… paternal love, nyan?）
Both Aria and Vulcan were baffled on seeing Cedric’s sudden change of attitude toward his niece, a (loli) woman.
After that, the won team had a bonding event of washing each others’ backs in the spacious bathroom in the mansion. Then, everyone went to the dining room and ate the delicious al Mari made. Finally, it was ti for them to sleep in their rooms to recover their energy for tomorrow’s battle.

（Uhm… can’t sleep.）
Late at night―
Unable to sleep, Tama stared at the night sky outside the window.
The reason he was having a hard ti falling asleep was his seething blood. His blood seethed with fighting spirit when he thought about the battle that would occur next day.
（I gained a new battle ability after the hard training I did following the war against Vassago. I wonder how effective it’s against a demon king class enemy…）
Tama opened his status as he pondered the matter.
His current status was as follows.

（Now that my adult form has been revealed, I’ve to steel my resolution to use my second form when I need firepower…）
Basking in the blue light released by the blooming Lucy flowers below the window, Tama made a resolution.
