80-Chapter II Ace Empire
Chapter 2 - The Empire of Aes
GG3
Although I didn't know the exact distance between the Aes Empire and the Academy, what I did know was that while I was marveling at how smoothly the airship was flying, we had actually arrived at the capital of the Aes Empire, Crystal Blue City.
Looking out through the window, I felt my heart become extremely excited all of a sudden.
Looking past the almost invisible edge of the royal capital, this kind of scene that can only be seen inside the game is actually right in front of me right now!
In the past, I would have been unable to resist the urge to walk around the city and look for treasure chests. But now the world is completely real, if you go looking for a treasure chest, you will only be treated as a thief.
The airship flew around the imperial city for a circle and then slowly landed on top of an open space behind the imperial city, the airship's door looked, and what I saw was the soldiers and maids on both sides responsible for greeting, with a butler in front.
"Princess-sama, you're finally back! It's so rare that you finally agreed to come back after all this time!"
The steward was called Mouseland, a level 34 swordsman level 50, and belonged to Good, Cautious.
"It's just because of a special reason."
When Princess Cheryl said this, she looked back at me and then continued.
"They are my most important friends, treat them as you would treat me! Or do you believe I'll leave right away!"
"Yes! I got it Princess!"
Princess Cheryl you have a really special way of threatening people....
Measuring the soldiers next to them were uniformly around level 25, and the maids, except for a few who had level 20 swordsman professions, were ordinary maids.
But........
No wizard at all!
And even without passing the skill, I felt that there was some disturbance in the nearby magical elements, so I didn't know what it was.
"A few of you princesses, although most of you are swordsmen, I'd like to explain something. The palace has been completely covered by the magic ban, and unless you have special permission, you can't use magic, so let me explain this point in particular, or it wouldn't be good to cause a misunderstanding."
"I see."
I thought on one side, then tried the magic of the ice shield.
But, the magic flickered and the ice shield actually appeared directly in my hand!
Seeing this, the old butler was so scared that he didn't know what to say, and it took a few seconds before a soldier reacted and drew his weapon on me.
As if on cue, the other soldiers all raised their weapons at me.
That's when Princess Cheryl reacted and shouted at them.
"What do you guys want! Didn't you hear what I just said!"
"Drop your weapons now! You heard what Princess Cheryl said! You can't be rude to guests!"
The old butler also said loudly.
That was when those soldiers lowered their weapons.
But Princess Xue'er was clearly still angry.
"Do you bastards really have no ears! You, cut off your own ears!"
Even I was shocked to hear that.
And those soldiers also shook, then looked at each other, their hands shaking as they reached for the short knives at their waists.
"Princess Snow, no, it was my mistake to summon the ice shield, you don't have to punish them like that."
I even said to Princess Cheryl.
What bloody violence in broad daylight! Is this a live horror movie?
Although I know that the imperial power is the absolute ruling class, it's too much to just ask someone to cut off their ear or something.
"But... they're pointing weapons at you eh!"
Princess Cheryl skirted.
"But they're looking out for your safety, aren't they? You'll just have to spare them. Nah?"
"Well...okay, you guys listen, this time it was National Wizard Phil who pleaded on your behalf to let you go! Next time you don't hear me!"
"Yes!"
All of them shouted at the same time.
Although it didn't look like their expressions had changed much, I could sense that they were clearly relieved.
"Your Highness, this isn't the place to talk either, so please return to the palace."
"Well, Phil, let's go! I'll show you how powerful our Aether Empire is!"
"Well..."
I don't need you to tell me that I know.
I've already seen the entire royal capital from the airship before, and I always feel like it takes half a day to walk from one end to the other, and the royal city alone is already more than a circle larger than Grey Academy.
Did you guys build it this big for the usual exercise?
Probably because the Aes Empire was full of ice elements, not only the royal capital, but also the outer walls of the imperial city revealed a faint blue luster.
Although there was no snowfall due to the summer, the air was only a few degrees colder, and you could see the white air floating in the air when you exhaled.
But the inside of the Imperial City did give a comfortable feeling, not too cold nor too hot, making it feel just right.
Just.....
This place was also too big and there were no convenient means of movement, it took a whole 20 minutes of walking before we arrived at our destination, the center of the Imperial City, the Imperial City Council Hall.
As soon as we entered, we saw the Emperor of the Aes Empire sitting at the top of the room - He . Aes. Aphrengeus.
Unlike the one I saw a few weeks ago, he now revealed a more enhanced intimidation, and don't ask me why I can feel it, my attack warning is about to go off.
But the feeling slowly faded away, leaving me relieved.
Behind the emperor, there were a few people standing there, three women and two men, although I couldn't see their titles, I could tell from the decorations on their bodies that they should be the princes and princesses of the Aether Empire.
And then down, the knight who wore heavy armor but couldn't see the rank should be a general of the Aes Empire. The civilian officials on the other side, on the other hand, were prime ministers and the like.
Of course, various officials are also lined up on both sides, and it seems that they are really paying attention to the matter of Princess Xueer's return.
Walking to the center of the hall, all of us got down on one knee and bowed to the king.
'Ahhhh, I hate kneeling!'
Suddenly, I saw the message from Alicia.
'There's no such thing as democracy here, so bear with it, it won't be so bad if you silently say in your heart, 'I've paid my respects to the Emperor.''
'........'
I don't know what expression Alicia had, but I saw her body shake a little, so I guess I almost laughed.
"I'm back."
After Princess Cheryl said that, she just stood up before the emperor said anything.
The emperor looked helpless and laughed bitterly.
"All up."
"I'm taking my friend to play then."
As soon as we stood up, Princess Cherub said so and headed straight for the door.
The people next to us seemed as if they were used to it and said nothing.
You guys are too casual....
"Phil!"
Suddenly, the Emperor called my name.
"What is it, Your Majesty?"
"Report to the Mage's Tower sometime, I'm sure you'll find a lot of good stuff there."
"I know."
After saying that, I followed Princess Xue'er and left the Council Chamber.
