I was accidentally injured by God and I just want to be an ordinary person

Because of Angelica's half-naked posture, Ella turned around embarrassedly. After a pause, she removed Entarosphiel's disguise, then canceled the complete stealth state and snapped her fingers lightly.

"Let's get some sleep first."

Before the maids could react, without any warning, the three Kumi maids who were originally comforting Angelini suddenly became quiet.

Angelini, who didn't know what was going on, let out a light exclamation, then locked her eyes on Ella. Perhaps because of her loli-like appearance, Angelini chose to confirm her identity first.

"Eh? Little Ella?"

"Yes, it's me."

At first, Ella thought Angelini would jump for joy, but Angelini gradually looked aggrieved, her mouth pursed into a line, and she kept wiping her eyes with her hands and sobbing.

“Wu…wu…”

"Um, are you okay?"

Feeling at a loss as to what to do with Angeline's tears, Ella could only take out clothes from the storage and put them on Angeline.

Angelica immediately put her arms around Ella's neck.

"...Little Ella...you're finally here...We never want to be apart again. I...I just want to be with you..."

Angelique's voice was uncontrollably filled with tears, completely unlike the Angelique who was always full of energy and brought happiness to those around her.

Feeling the moist touch on her shoulder, Ella's originally stiff body immediately relaxed, and she gently patted Angelini's back with her free hands.

"Well, I'll take you back now—'High-level Mass Teleport'."

Chapter 3 The Beginning of the Problem

After bringing Angelini back to her room in the royal city, Ella asked Angelini to sit on a chair, while she stood behind her and switched identities. As for the fact that the appearance of the Loli God had been exposed to Angelini, Ella thought there was no problem at all. Not to mention that she could find some excuses related to the Demon King to get away with it, first of all, even if she told Angelini the truth, it would be fine as long as Angelini kept it a secret.

Ella took out Angeline's favorite sweets and drinks from the storage and placed them on the table, and sat next to Angeline.

Perhaps the pent-up emotions had subsided, and now, apart from the redness of her eyes, Angelini no longer sobbed.

Ella patted Angelini's shoulder.

"It's all right now. This is the Branch of Disaster."

"……Um."

Angeline answered hesitantly, without doubting Ella's words, but wiped the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief Ella handed her.

"Is Angeline now the Saint of the Kingdom of Kumheim?"

"Um."

"You haven't encountered anything too extreme, have you?"

Although judging from her title as a saint, she shouldn't have encountered anything excessive, but to make the lively Angelini cry, she must have been wronged in some way.

Angelica shook her head and timidly picked up the teacup on the table.

Ella couldn't help but blink in surprise. She didn't encounter any bad things, but she started crying the first time she saw her. If it weren't for Angeline's status bar being normal, Ella would even suspect that Angeline was bewitched by mental magic.

After hesitating for a moment, Ella finally decided to ask.

"Then why—"

"Because I miss Ella-chan and everyone else..."

"Yeah."

Ella couldn't help but smile bitterly. This was undoubtedly a statement that only Angeline would make. Perhaps it was because Angeline had been away from her and her group for too long, and the emotions of missing her kept accumulating, so she burst into tears the moment she saw her. This is how emotions would be expressed when they found an outlet.

Ella sighed helplessly. Although she wanted to ask Angelini here about what happened, Angelini's current condition made her unable to bear to speak. After hesitating for a while, Ella chose to go to the courtyard first to inform her friends of the situation.

"The elves' envoys should still be in the royal city. Can Angeline rest here for a while? I'll have Lotte come over."

"The elves' messengers... I don't want to go back with them."

"Well, I won't tell them."

Perhaps because she didn't want Ella to leave, Angeline showed a reluctant look on her face, but she also knew that this was unreasonable, so she finally nodded and agreed to Ella's proposal.

After leaving a pile of desserts, Ella left the room.

As soon as I walked out the door, the knight on guard made an expression as if his mouth was wide enough to swallow an apple in one bite.

“Ah, Your Majesty!”

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Realizing his own impoliteness, the knight's expression instantly turned grim, and he stammered.

"No...nothing, I've been standing here since this morning and didn't see you go in..."

Perhaps surprised by her sudden appearance in the room, Ella realized the reason for the knight's loss of composure and waved her hand as if nothing had happened.

"It's a secret."

"I see. I understand. I will keep this a secret. Where are you going next, Your Majesty?"

"The audience hall in the side hall."

The elves' messengers are there, and I want to find them first to find out what happened.

"Yes, I understand."

The knight immediately pretended to lead the way. Ella scratched her cheek in embarrassment. Although she was very touched by the demons' original intention to help her, when faced with such a small matter, Ella couldn't help feeling that she was causing trouble for others.

"Wait, there's something more important that you need to do than just leading the way."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"Could you please go to the courtyard and call Lotte, the palace's steward, to come into the room?"

"Yes, I understand. However, Your Majesty, please do not use such a pleading tone."

"Then—go and call Lotte into the room."

"yes!"

The answer was more powerful than before, and an incomparable light burst out from the knight's eyes. The unconcealable ecstasy even made Ella subconsciously take a step back.

[Is it a masochist?]

After muttering something in her heart, Ella watched the soldier's back and turned to walk towards the audience hall in the side hall.

◇

After seeing the castle of the Kingdom of Kumheim, Ella realized how outrageous the palace of the demons was. From the overall design to the decoration craftsmanship, the corridor alone was even several levels higher than the main hall used by the court of the Kingdom of Kumheim. It was spacious and bright, which was simply incomparable to ordinary castles. Although there were practical considerations in this - ordinary castles had few vents and windows to resist foreign invasions, but from another perspective, the reason why the demons' castles focused on sensory and comfort was because they were confident that no one could invade.

Not to mention the surveillance magic circles and soldiers deployed everywhere.

Maybe even mosquitoes can't fly in, Ella couldn't help but sigh in her heart. In fact, even in the open-air garden before, she and her friends had never been bothered by mosquitoes. It seemed that the gardener had sprinkled powder in advance to repel poisonous insects.

After turning a corner, Ella came to the audience hall where the elven messengers were. Probably because they were there to heal the messengers' injuries, in addition to the guards at the door, there were also a large number of maids carrying water and people dressed as healers - Eve brought many healers from the Church of Enstarnit with her when she came.

[It seems serious... Is the Kumi tribe's attack that outrageous? ]

In my opinion, the Kumi are guys who lack offensive means.

With the guards and maids bowing to her, Ella walked into the audience hall - it was filled with elves wrapped in bandages, some sitting and some lying on the ground, groaning constantly, giving Ella the feeling of walking into a field hospital.

"Your Majesty the Princess."

Seeing Ella walk in, Camisia, who was sitting on the sofa, immediately stood up and saluted, making room for Ella.

"Yeah, it's been taken care of."

Taking care of it refers to bringing Angelini back. After showing a slightly surprised expression, Camisia began to introduce to Ella the young elf sitting opposite the sofa. Among all the elves in the room, only this young man was less seriously injured. Of course, having said that, his head was actually wrapped in thick bandages.

"This is the representative of the envoys from the Elven Territory, Malbrune, Kiru Malbrune."

Following Camisia's introduction, the young elf who had already stood up bowed slightly. As his injuries had not yet recovered, the young elf's movements seemed erratic.

"I feel deeply guilty for asking for your help without your permission. On behalf of the Elf Lord Malbrune, I apologize to your Majesty."

"No, it's nothing. You're doing this for Angelina, right?"

Ella pressed her hand down, motioning the young elf to sit down. Even if the other party was taking advantage of her close relationship with Angelica and asking for her help, if not, she would not know Angelica's condition.

Chapter 4: The Game of Exchange

After understanding the meaning of Ella's words, the young elf paused.

"I'm deeply sorry... We did send someone back to the territory to deliver the message, but the Kingdom of Kumheim is at least three months away from Malborune, so we really have no other options..."

"Well, I don't mean to blame you. Before we talk, you should heal your injuries first."

"But Your Majesty, a wound of this magnitude would take us, even the elves, more than three days to heal. By then..."

The elf youth's tone sounded a little anxious, and his face was full of embarrassment.

However, the young elf completely misunderstood Ella's meaning. After spreading his hands helplessly in his heart, out of self-respect, Ella first took out the Pestle of Heavenly Punishment from the warehouse, and then waved it casually.

"'Basic Healing Technique'."

A pale golden light fell from the Pestle of Heavenly Punishment. The moment the golden light particles touched the young man, his HP recovered at an astonishing speed. In just a moment, it returned to its full value from two-thirds of its original value.

In disbelief, the young elf reached out and touched the thick bandage on his head, his shock evident in his expression.

"My injuries are healed? How is that possible?!"

To confirm this, the young elf even untied the bandage in a few seconds and pressed his forehead with his hand - although there were still blood scabs left, there was no pain.

“What the hell just happened…?”

"The princess's healing magic is even more powerful than that of the Pope of the Enstanet Church. Lord Kiru, there is no need to panic."

"I see. I've heard that Your Majesty is a demon skilled in healing magic, but I didn't expect you to have such a high level of recovery ability. Perhaps you've even surpassed Queen Malbrune."

Kiru thought that his healing magic was outstanding, but after experiencing Ella's healing magic personally, he could only wipe the sweat from his forehead guiltily.

But compared to Kiru's flattery, Ella cared more about what Angelique had experienced.

"So, can you tell me what happened?"

"Of course, that was about half a month ago—"

In short, when Kiru and his party passed through the Kingdom of Kumheim, Angeline suddenly asked to go back and wait for Ella. Kiru thought this behavior was very rude, so he rejected Angeline. However, Angeline escaped from the hotel where she was staying that night, and accidentally entered the oracle ceremony of the Kingdom of Kumheim. The king of Kumheim mistook her for the saint of the oracle. Kiru chased her and clashed with the king of Kumheim in order to get Angeline back. In the end, he was defeated by the king of Kumheim and was exiled.

Due to time considerations, he divided the original delegation of fifty people into two parts. One part returned to Malborune to report the news, while he led his people to the Demon Tribe to ask Ella for help, which led to the current result.

"Although I know this is an excessive request, but even for Lady Angeline's sake, Your Majesty, please send troops to rescue Lady Angeline from the Kingdom of Kumheim!"

“Mmm—”

The elf youth's request made Ella put her hand to her lips and fell silent. Of course, Ella was not thinking about how to rescue Angelina, but how to deal with this matter.

Of course, I would not send Angelini back just to create the illusion of "rescuing Angelini". Angelini has already said that she wants to stay with me. I can't force her to separate without her consent.

Then the only thing left was to send the messenger away. Since the messengers' purpose was to bring Angelini back to the Elf Territory, it would be the same if I took Angelini there. At the same time, in order to prevent others from knowing my strength, I could not reveal the information that Angelini was actually in the Demon Tribe.

[In that case, there's only one choice left. ]

The thoughtful look disappeared from her face, and Ella pretended nothing had happened and picked up the teacup that originally belonged to Camisia on the table.

"Can you tell me why you took Angelina away?"

"this……"

The young man looked embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, I don't know the reason either. The Queen only ordered me to bring Lady Angelina back to the territory as a distinguished guest."

"whispering sound."

Camisia, who was standing next to her, curled her lips. Since this was a contemptuous gesture that Camisia would never make, Ella concluded that Camisia was reminding her that the other party was lying.

[You actually know the reason, but for some reason you're unwilling or unable to tell me? —It probably has something to do with Angelina's weapon.]

The giant sickle that Angelini held was a magical weapon of the artifact level. According to Angelini, this was the weapon given to her by her mentor before she left the Elf Territory. Taking the Kingdom of Baris as an example, the number of artifacts would not exceed the number of a handful, and ordinary people would not give such rare items to each other, so Ella subconsciously guessed that it was related to weapons.

"Instead of just retrieving the weapons, you're sending Angeline back herself. While it might be inconvenient to do it in front of me, there are plenty of opportunities to forcibly snatch them from Angeline on the way back to the Elf Territory. Perhaps it's not just about the weapons. Well, I'll find out more later."

Due to Camisia's questioning behavior, the elf youth's face turned a little ugly, and on this basis, Ella also snorted.
