I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace Chapter 871 - Ristia Asmodeus ①

In order to et Lilim-san, one of Phantasmal King’s executives, the Ten Demons, I have arrived in the Archlesia Empire.

I had already contacted Chris-san beforehand and confird a date where it would be convenient for both of us for to visit. And this ti, Chris-san said she would introduce us herself, so Pandora-san didn’t co.

Pandora-san seed to be quite seriously worried about visiting Lilim-san, but when Alice confidently told her that I would be fine, she agreed to let Chris-san handle Lilim-san for the ti being.

Because I had contacted Chris-san beforehand, I was imdiately led to her when I arrived at her castle, and together with Chris-san, we moved to the place where I think Lilim-san was.

Incidentally, the na Lilim was just her codena, and in the Archlesia Empire, she was using her real na “Ristia Asmodeus”, so Alice warned to call her by that na when there are people around.

[……Arehh? Since we left the castle, does that an she wasn’t living here?]

[Yes, Mother lives in the inner palace…… where the forr Empress and the forr Emperor’s concubines live. The forr Emperor had so many concubines that he had spent a very large sum of money to build a palace for them.]

[Inner palace huh……]

[Yes. Though I say that, with the forr Emperor dead, originally, the people in the inner palace probably should have moved elsewhere already…… but I, the current Emperor, have no intention of living there, and even if I were to have it removed, the cost would be too much considering the cost of looking after his concubines, and more importantly, they themselves are adamant about not leaving the inner palace. It would be a hassle to persuade them to leave, so I just left them as they pleased.]

[I- I see……]

[Well, we don’t have much of a budget at the mont, and thus, we only assign the minimum number of servants, so it’s not that much of a burden.]

When I heard the words Chris-san said with a wry smile, I had so doubts in mind. It sounded like they didn’t have that large of a budget, but if that was the case, why were the concubines so adamant about not leaving the inner palace?

If they had been living a luxurious life, I would understand why they wouldn’t want to give their current lifestyle up…… but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

As if she understood my doubts, Chris-san smiled.

[I can kind of understand your question, but you’ll soon understand…… Now, we’ve arrived.]

Chris-san led to a place where we found a magnificent building that was comparable to Lilia-san’s mansion.

A woman in a simple dress stood at the entrance, and when she saw us, she deeply bowed her head. For a mont, I thought she was Lilim-san, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

[We’ve been expecting you, your Majesty, the Empress, Miyama Kaito-sama.]

[Where’s Mother?]

[Risty-sama is in her usual room……]

[I understand. I’ll be leading him there, so you don’t have to co with us.]

After a short exchange, Chris-san opened the door of the mansion and asked to go inside. Following her inside the mansion, as we walked down the wide corridor, Chris-san spoke with a wry smile on her face.

[……Incidentally, that woman just now is the “forr Empress”.]

[Huh? Eh?]

[As for why the forr Empress wore a plain dress and acted like a servant…… The answer is simple. It’s because they themselves wanted to do it.]

[……H- Hmmm?]

What the heck is that, I have no idea what she’s talking about at all. Does that an that she enjoys doing housework like Callia-san?

[You seem confused. Well, I think it’s understandable…… I guess I’ll tell you the answer first. In the first place, the reason why the forr Empress and the concubines don’t want to leave the inner palace…… is because of Mother.]

[Errr, Ristia-san?]

[Mother is the most powerful succubus in existence. Her charms affect not only the opposite gender, but even the sa gender…… In other words, the forr Empress and the concubines are so in love with Mother that they don’t want to leave the inner palace, and are even willing to serve as her servants.]

[……T- That’s kinda trendous.]

[Fortunately, Mother doesn’t seem to be interested in the sa gender, so she’s really only using them as servants…… and they themselves are happy to be of service to Mother.]

I see…… The pinnacle of Lustful Demon, possessing the power to charm even the sa gender. So that’s the being nad Lilim-san huh…… On top of that, according to Pandora-san, she had the bad habit of ssing around with n.

I guess I could understand now why Pandora-san was worried…… but why was Alice that confident that it wouldn’t be a problem?

H- Hmmm, I don’t really get it, but we’re about to et now…… Would I be able to understand after I t her?

Serious-senpai : [Lilim’s finally making her entrance…… No, she did already make her entrance in the novel, but this would be her first ti eting Kaito…… Serious developnt…… I guess there wouldn’t be one huh…… It would end just like usual…… I knew it.]
