Volume 4, Chapter 9: I turned 11 years old, Part 3

Yurushia-sama has gone missing!

When morning came, the maid who came to take care of Yurushia reported such to Vio, who was in charge.

Where is the Princess!?

Where are the Saint-samas attendants?

We have not seen them

As they searched for the [Saint] and the [Princess] who had suddenly disappeared, all of the staff went into a panic and couldnt conceal their unease.

Today was Yurushias 11th birthday, and the faces of the maids, who had used the kitchen of the inn to bake a cake, sunk in worry.

Although she acted like an adult, she was only 11: the youngest in the whole group.

However, nobody thought that she had run away.

It was Yurushias desire to come here in the first place, and even as they were fighting monsters along the journey, she was the calmest.

In contrast, the knights and soldiers realized how they needed the [greatness of her being] that came from the [Saint].

Healing all their injuries in an instant, and since most of the monsters couldnt break through her [Protection], they felt like they were standing naked in the battlefield without the [Saint-sama].

Everyone, calm down

Roderick the [Grandchild of the King] and the [Holy Paladin], calmed everyone down with his rebuke.

Yurushias most likely destination is probably the Daemon Kings territory.

At those words, heartbroken noises leaked out of the knights and maids.

A little girl that was not yet 11, who wished for the peace of the world, had understood, and chosen to confront the Daemon King alone as the Holy Saint for the sake of those that were grieving.

Noel and I will head for the Daemon Kings territory. I will not ask you all to follow us. You will not be punished even if you do not come along, so do not worry. Lets go, Noel!

Yes, Your Highness

He made eye contact with Noel who was by his side, and they nodded to each other.

As for Noel and Rick, they knew that Yurushia was concerned about the Demon Beast.

There was a terrifying Demon Beast that was aiming for her

The two of them thought that she went by herself since she might have harmed the two of them who were close to her if they had gone together.

Also those strange events last night. Perhaps it was that the [Cat] came to tell them about the girls pure heart before she left.

The next day, Rick and Noel finished their preparations and departed for the Daemon Kings territory.

The knights and soldiers that followed them of their own volition, joined midway by several hundred mercenaries including the [Hawkeye Mercenary Company], came to number around the scale of about 500 people.

Nnn~~~

Walking as I was in a town of the Daemons, I was fully enjoying my first time by myself in a long while.

How long had it been since I had walked outside by myself? Uhhh, ehh?

Even if I read through all of my memories as Yurushia, I couldnt find a single time where I had been alone other than inside of the mansion

Ever since I met Him

How long have I been pampered?!

When I entered the town in the Daemon Kings territory, I didnt want to stand out so I walked, but there wasnt anything particularly interesting.

Most of the stores werent open. The only ones that were had been looted.

The town was completely dead I suppressed my presence, although it brought about a vulnerable atmosphere, however, after the first few attacked there havent been any more of them.

Everyone was thin and emancipated, so I had instinctively fed them with the dried octopus and squid, but I wonder if they liked it?

I thought about the balance of nutrients properly, so I let them eat the seaweed together too.

This dress can really store a whole lot of dried food.

I think, this might be the only piece of equipment in the world that is cursed with seafood products

While I was thinking such things, I arrived at the Daemon Kings Castle.

This is the Daemon Kings Castle, huh? Its got an old and eerie atmosphere, but I didnt feel a single bit of presence.

I wonder if Daemon King-san is out?

It seems a bit insecure to not even have a guard. I wonder if that self-styled Hero person is opening treasure boxes and stuff without permission somewhere.

ah, theres someone.

A big person stood alone at the gate of the Daemon Kings castle.

Big I wonder, he must be close to 3 meters tall. Hes a muscly strongman.

Uho, uho, uho, (Welcome, foolish human. As long as I live, then it is impossible for this gate to open)

ha?

Oh no I wonder if the automatic translation function of the Spirit Language has gone wrong somewhere

Uhoho, Uho! (Why are you silent? I see youre a thin human girlHey, why does everyone ignore Francois, the Iron Princess of the dwarves)

Dwarf!?

Finally, they appeared

Furthermore, its everyones long awaited [Princess-sama], yo!

Uhoo, uhouhouhoho (Is this your first time seeing a dwarf? But, you understand the dwarf language, I will praise you, human.

Amazing, Mochipurun. (remember that old, old chapter with ridiculous names?) Even though that Salt Daifuku (read: Elf) looked so decent

Uhoho, Uhoohooho (Then, I will reintroduce myself again in light of that. I am the iron Princess Francois. I am the woman that will be Daemon King Hebrad-samas wife.)

o-Ooh

Still, looking at this Daemon King his strike zone is infinite.

S-sorry, I didnt think that there would be a Dwarf in the Daemon Kings territory.

When I said so, Francois boulder-like face turned a little downcast and lonely.

Uho uho, uho (I see Seven years ago, when I was four years old, since my sisters were jealous of my beauty, they exiled me to this place)

The same age!

This child is only 11 years old!?!

Uhoo? Uhoho, Uhoo (Well, is that so? Is your growth stunted? If you dont put on some meat, you wont be attractive to men, hohoho)

But an ordinary Dwarf is about 2 meters tall, I hear

Pardon the late introduction, I am Yurushia. and, uh, why is a queen-candidate like Francois in such a place?

Uuhouhouhouhoo (Hebrad-sama went forth in order to destroy the humans. In his absence he left guarding Daemon Kings castle to me. Because Im afraid that Ill get injured)

Is that so.

What a troublesome rose No, thats not it.

This girl has a very beautiful maidens heart! Daemon King-san, should also understand.

I gently touch Francois basketball-sized fist.

Francois because youre a lovely child, the Daemon King-sama didnt want to do anything that might have hurt you

uho (Yurushia)

Thud

The girl who probably weighed 300 kilograms knelt down, and put her eyes at my height.

Uhoo, uhoho, uho (Thank you that Will you be my friend? I dont have any friends of the same age)

Yes, I wish for that too. Nice to meet you, Fran.

Uho, uho, uho (Nice to meet you, Yuru Hey Yurus dress, is very wonderful)

When Francois saw my dress, she wiggled bashfully, and fumbled with her hair.

that it was curly hair. I had thought that it was a helmet made of black iron.

Do you like this?

Uhoo, uhouho, uhoho (Yes but its impossible. If I tried to wear it, it would surely tear immediately)

This was made by my attendants. Its really durable, so Ill ask them to make one for you, Fran.

Uhoo, uhouhoho, uhoo! (Really!? I, Im sorry, that was immodest of me. But, Im very glad. If its Yuru, Ill let you into the Daemon Kings castle. Because, youre a friend, and thats special!)

Waa, thank you, Fran

And in this way, I was able to enter the Daemon Kings castle without issue.

Because there isnt much food left in the castle to speak of, I gave a lot of dried goods to Francois for food in passing, in order for her to feed the elephants that she kept in the castle garden, and she ran off like a storm.

With this, shell be in no danger.

And then I walked alone into the Daemon Kings castle.

It transmitted my warmth.

Just as I felt it, He has certainly noticed.

A slightly sweet and nostalgic feeling that tickled the nose

With each step that I took down the stair into the basement, the Smell became stronger.

The other side of this door.

At last,

The two of us met.

I am reflecting. I am also regretting it a little.
