Chapter 101.1: On Top of A Sea of Clouds
◆Princess of Hell; Polen
We boarded Alphos-sama’s flying ship.
「Uhm… Your Highness, are you sure that you want to go there?」
Poh-chan, who stood behind me, asked with an anxious look on her face.
「ABSOLUTELY!! LET’S GO, POH-CHAN!!」
The beauties on the deck of the ship all had their sights on me. I felt hostility from their gazes, it was pretty painful.
I wanted to escape.
But, I absolutely couldn’t escape right now.
We walked fearfully on the deck of the ship.
「Hey, why are you coming to our ship?」
「Yes, why is a pig allowed to step into this ship?」
「Why did Alphos-sama allow her to come to this ship?」
「This place is really going to be smelly now.」
I could clearly hear the voices of the beauties around me. But, all I could do was look down on the floor, unable to even refute their remarks. They were being a bit much, but there was nothing I could do.
Contrary to me, Kuna Shishou was walking forward with a puffed up ch*st, as if those hostile words were trivial. I couldn’t understand how she could just ignore them when the words they said to her were far worse than mine. Shishou just laughed scornfully as she looked at them.
At her gaze filled with scorn, the beauties got irritated.
「What’s wrong with that girl?」
「She’s too cocky.」
「Don’t think that you win just because you’re a bit more beautiful…」
「Humph! Rena-sama is still more beautiful than you!」
Those kinds of insults came from the beauties around us toward Shishou, but I knew that there was a sense of absolute defeat in their voices. Those thousands of beauties were no match for Shishou. I mean, Shishou was the most beautiful woman on this ship. She alone had overwhelmed the beauties in this ship. She walked with so much confidence as if she owned the place.
「Excuse me, can you let go of your weapon? The girls are scared.」
Upon advancing a little bit further, a beauty called out to Shishou. I knew who she was as soon as I saw her.
She was the Goddess of Poems, Muse.
She was a Goddess who always stayed by Alphos-sama’s side.
The reason why I knew her identity was because I’ve been investigating Alphos-sama, especially the women around him. Unlike the other beauties, she was the only one who didn’t show any fear toward Shishou.
「Worry not, Kuroki told me to wait quietly and not cause any trouble. That’s why those women can still keep their heads for now.」
Shishou waved her hands as she reassured the other party.
「For now? Are you implying that you’re going to behead them after this?」
「Naturally. I’ll wait till the fight ends though. I mean, if I behead you girls now, you won’t be able to see the sorry state of your man when he gets miserably beaten to a pulp.」
Shishou answered with a sinister smile on her face.
Muse looked visibly surprised upon hearing that and the beauties took a step back as if trying to get away from Shishou.
Their hostile intent soared.
Shishou ignored all of those beauties and walked by Muse’s side. Seeing that, the beauties had no choice but to open the way for Shishou. No one dared to stop her.
She kept walking until she arrived at the couch prepared on the deck of the ship, and sat down as if it was her own couch.
She then watched master Kuroki and Alphos-sama from there.
「That’s Alphos-sama’s sea-」
「HAH?」
「HIIIIIIIIII!!!」
The beauty who tried to look at something got scared sh*tless by Shishou’s glare.
As expected of Shishou, she is always able to shut down the other party with a mere glance.
「Just who in the world is that girl?」
「Is she the famous demon king’s child?」
「Lies. How can that ugly demon king have such a beauty as his daughter…」
「But, she does have an air of royalty…」
「Sure enough… it’s still hard to believe though…」
The beauties were whispering amongst themselves.
I’m the demon king’s daughter though…
But then, no matter how you look at it, Shishou truly had the air befitting of a princess of hell. She was beautiful, powerful, charming, terrifying, yet sweet and lovely on other occasions.
She was my ideal figure.
She was someone I strived to be like. An extremely dazzling female figure.
「Is something wrong, Polen? Aren’t you going to sit down and watch the show?」
Shishou, who didn’t even notice my inner turmoil, said she looked at me.
The couch was huge, huge enough for several people to sit together. Normally, Alphos-sama would sit in the center of the couch, playing his harp as the beauties waited upon him. That was definitely a sight to behold.
But, the one sitting on the couch right now wasn’t Alphos-sama, but Shishou. Shishou sat on the couch while crossing her legs. It was as if she was the lord of this ship.
Was it really alright for someone like me to sit beside her?
Since the beauties who originally sat on the couch had left due to their fear toward Shishou, there was some space left for Poh-chan and me. I only hesitated for a moment, and then shook my head immediately.
Not good.
I need to remind myself again of the reason I followed Shishou. The reason why I came to this ship was that Shishou had reminded me again of that fact.
Master Kuroki actually wanted to let us descend to a safer place, but Shishou rejected that idea. It was because she couldn’t see the battle between Master Kuroki and Alphos-sama clearly unless she was in this ship.
Master Kuroki hesitated at first, but Shishou didn’t change her opinion. As a result, Master Kuroki gave in and allowed Shishou to watch the fight from this ship. contemporary romance
Master Kuroki actually just wanted me to land in a safe place. But, I insisted on following Shishou. That was a natural choice!!
I did this for the sake of Master Kuroki who showed his anger for my sake. It was my duty to watch master Kuroki’s fight till the end.
I sat beside Shishou.
When I sat, the beauties’ hostility shot through the roof, but I wouldn’t lose to them this time.
In Shishou’s line of sight, the figures of two giant dragons facing each other from quite a distance could be seen. It was the Black Demon Dragon and White Holy Dragon. Riding on the back of the two dragons were the Dark Knight and the Holy Knight.
Sorry master Kuroki.
I apologized quietly to master Kuroki, the Dark Knight.
Master was angry for me, but I wasn’t such a good kid for master Kuroki to protect me!! I had an ulterior motive when I said that I was going to subjugate the kraken. I wasn’t a passionate girl like what master Kuroki thought!!
Sorry!! I’m really sorry!!
I’ll do my best to change myself!!
I’ll leave my room!! Train to become stronger!! And stop my bad habit of just eating and sleeping!!
I’ll do my best to even become a bit more beautiful!!
That’s why… win this fight, master Kuroki.

◆Dark Knight; Kuroki
「I wonder if Kuna and the others will be alright…?」
I looked at the flying ship in the distance from Glorious’ back.
「Don’t worry, that silver-haired girl will be alright. I’ve told the others not to hurt her after all.」
Alphos, who was on the back of the White Holy Dragon, remarked as he held his helmet under his arm.
「Then, there’s nothing to worry about, but…」
I dropped them on the deck of the flying ship after gaining Alphos’ permission after all.
Well, it should be alright since the beauties on that ship seemed to always listen to Alphos. But, it didn’t mean that I didn’t feel anxious at all.
「Still feeling anxious, eh? If I was in your position, I would start worrying about myself rather than others.」
Alphos laughed, it felt as if he was looking down on me.
This man was powerful. That’s why he was really confident when he picked a fight with me.
The problem was, for what reason did he do that? Why did he pick a fight with me?
「By the way, do you know that the male gods who are pursuing Rena are currently engaging in a fight against the Hero of Light at the Sweet Castle?」
「Say what?」
This was my first time hearing about this. Seriously, just what happened at the Sweet Castle?
「Aren’t you going to participate in the fight to pursue Rena?」
I ended up tilting my head in puzzlement upon hearing Alphos’ question.
「No, I won’t participate. It’s a meaningless fight. Even if they fight to pursue Rena, the one who has the final say is Rena herself. Why should I participate in a fight for Rena when the person herself has nothing to do with it and is not involved in any way? Rena isn’t a trophy.」
「Sure enough, Rena is different from other women. She is the only one who dared to speak rudely to me. You probably know how special she is too. So, can you endure the sight of her being snatched by another man?」
Alphos asked, trying to test me.
