Chapter 177
Lady Black Princess, this person is totally different from the humans we know of . Lord Yato has never changed his attitude and continued treating us supernatural creatures in a normal manner; he has saved us from life-threatening dangers . He is definitely not soone who will deceive us!”
“Even if I’m told that... No matter how much Ouka says that, it’s not proof of statent and I can’t trust him . ”
Well that’s of course .
I’m happy that Ouka has been desperately trying to protect , but no one was convinced with just her emotions .
“We are not only concerned with Ouka’s matters; it will also trouble us if more humans know of our existence, the supernatural creatures . ”
Black Princess looked at with a troubled appearance .
“For a long ti till now, we have cut all contacts with humans . Thanks to that, we are able to lead peaceful lives now . We want to avoid things repeating from history . ”
In the past, supernatural creatures were persecuted by the humans .
No matter how much they tried to escape, they were tortured and killed; back then there were probably no peaceful tis like the ones they are leading right now .
That’s precisely why the Black Princess wanted to protect that and put a stop to this .
“Looking at you reminds of that... the past . ”
Black Princess fell into deep thoughts as she looked at , a human .
What was she thinking about? I’m sure it wasn’t a good mory and I could not interpret Black Princess’ emotions .
“-This is so unpleasant . ”
All of a sudden, the atmosphere took a sudden shift .
Right after she ended that sentence, the atmosphere around Black Princess beca heavy, and I felt a sense of sluggishness overtaking my body at the sa ti .
What is it? It feels like I’m losing strength all of a sudden...
Is my entire body weakening?
I imdiately tried to figure out the cause of this strange feeling and looked around my surroundings to find the entire scenery tainted in red .
It’s as though I’m looking through a red plate .
I guess this is a barrier .
“Hey, why did you think I asked a human like you to co to the castle?”
Black Princess questioned as she looked at .
“I wonder . Won’t you tell why?”
If I know that, I would not have to suffer .
I tried to keep calm and replied with a tinge of nervousness deep within .
At my reply, a smile unfit of the Black Princess appeared on her face .
“That’s because... in the case you are our enemy, I will grab this chance to kill you for sure . ”
Is this that person’s true nature?
It is far different from the llow nature she displayed earlier; it is completely dark and eerie .
“Lady Black Princess, what are you trying to say...?”
“Relax . I won’t do anything yet . ”
Having been affected by the barrier, Ouka tried to appeal to Black Princess but it seems that Black Princess does not agree with her .
That’s because she said ‘in the case you are our enemy’ .
“If you were going to kill , is it really necessary to call out like this?”
“The barrier is not a convenient thing; there are a few preparations that are necessary . Furthermore, you do not have any place to escape right now . ”
What does she an by ‘I do not have any place to escape’? I understood the aning of those words .
I guess it could be the influence of the barrier but I could not use magical powers .
Furthermore, the castle army troops were waiting outside, on a standby to attack anyti .
I was most definitely cornered .
At this precarious state, I looked at Black Princess with a firm expression .
The Black Princess’ face remained as llow as ever but the vibes emitted from her was, in contrast, eerie .
“Up till this day, I have undergone many experiences; I was the target of assassination by humans and had to train to hone my magical skills to death so that I can kill those humans through curses... Having lived a long life, there was not a single peaceful ti like what we have right now . Do you know why? That’s because humans has forgotten about the existence of us supernatural creatures . If you are going to threaten this peace, I’m not going to let you go easy . ”
The tone was the sa as before but there were a mixture of anger and hatred in it .
She had the sa attitude during the first eting; it is possible that she is soone among the supernatural creatures who bore particularly strong dislikes against humans .
If I were to go around killing the supernatural creatures right now, I will probably be turned into a ghost .
The current Black Princess has made that ssage clear to .
“I am pretty scary when I’m pissed off . ”
With a grin, the Black Princess threatened .
I guess the person who loses composure here will end up losing .
I did not give in to the pressure that the Black Princess has been exerting, and nodded at her with my usual attitude .
“Seems like so . ”
After the end of the threat, as though the Black Princess was satisfied, the pressure from her and barrier too disappeared .
“Is that alright? You got rid of the barrier that you took pains to create . I might escape, you know?”
“In that case, I will just do whatever that’s written on the order that has been dispatched . ”
I was puzzled, but Black Princess answered with confidence .
Whatever that’s written on the order that has been dispatched... is it sothing that will cause harm to those around ?
It seems like the threat is still ongoing .
“I don’t know about that though? I might be willing to sacrifice those around for my own sake . ”
“That’s impossible . ”
I myself think that it is a possible situation, but the Black Princess was determined that it is not .
“If that is really the case, you would have already escaped . ”
