NABC Chapter 2.1
Chapter 2.1
Lillis spoke up, “Anyway, Lady Bathesia, for now, please return. I will arrange a meeting with My Demon King once he has developed enough power.”
“What? What nonsense is this?”
Karos, who had been dazedly listening, was shocked by Lillis’s words. Meeting with your Demon King? Bathesia was the last person he wanted to see. Lillis gave Karos a meaningful look.
“Let’s see, how should I put it? If you don’t respond appropriately, you might find it difficult to leave peacefully. Or do you want to stay here and be struck by lightning?”
“Wait, are you angry?”
Karos stammered in the face of Lillis’ aggressive attitude.
“No, I’m not.”
Lillis replied. She was feeling too many emotions after all the strange events. She turned her head away from Karos, who looked puzzled. Bathesia stood there, her head lowered.
“Lady Bathesia, for the time being, if you could...”
“I don’t need it.”
“What?”
“I said, I don’t need it!”
KABOOM!
“Ugh!”
Lightning struck, and a shockwave engulfed Lillis. She managed to maintain her balance and avoid being thrown back, but her body was slowly being pushed away.
Bathesia shouted, her face contorted. “Punishment from the Demon King? Insult? I don’t care about that! Karos, remember what you did to me! I’m going to kill you right now! Move!”
RUMBLE!
Thunder roared, and lightning struck fiercely, creating a violent disturbance. Lillis was startled and tried to move backward.
“Karos, what on earth did you do to make her like this?”
The fact that Bathesia’s power had disappeared without a trace was also a mystery. Bathesia, with an equally dazed expression, stared at Karos.
“...Why are you still alive?”
“Well, how would I know?”
A situation where neither the one trying to kill nor the one almost killed knew the reason.
Bathesia shook her head and extended her hand again. “Never mind, I can do it again. This time, nothing will go wrong.”
As her magic swirled and gathered in her hand, it disappeared as soon as it reached a certain point.
“...What?”
Bathesia stared blankly at her own hand, finally realizing the situation. Lillis, who had slowly risen to her feet, was equally bewildered.
“What’s happening? Why isn’t the magic gathering?”
“I don’t know.”
Bathesia raged, but there was no visible effect. She shouted in frustration.
“Why is this happening!”
“I blocked your magic, Bathesia Concretia.”
A resonant voice echoed. It was a power that forcibly brought Bathesia to her knees. The already crumbling waiting room began to creak and groan even more.
Bathesia broke into a cold sweat as she muttered, “Ah... darn it, what’s happening?”
“I felt the presence of an aura in my office, so I had a feeling something was going on outside. I’ll have to reprimand the guards. By the way, Karos, you left not too long ago, and now you’re back. Did you find my power to your liking?”
The massive door swung open, and the figure of Demon King Astrea slowly approached.
