Mr. Edel still tilted his head slightly. However, Tio continued to proudly talk about Kaori, Shizuku, and the others, with an attitude that "nothing was wrong." So he decided to treat it as a mishearing and not pursue the matter further. Finley's expression was as if to say, "Chief! You are so disappointing!"
"What does 'Master' mean? A nickname?" "Maybe a title or something." Elois, Listas, and the others also discussed the matter in low voices, puzzled. However, no one asked Tio. Everyone thought their princess couldn't possibly call any man 'Master', and for a moment, they completely dismissed the word's original meaning.
At this moment, a sentence in the image deeply attracted everyone's attention.
——Let them be completely exterminated.
Suddenly, everyone felt as if a bucket of ice had been poured down their backs.
Everyone could understand his feelings. It was natural for him to be angry at seeing his fellow townspeople and the children he admired as his father fall into the hands of the enemy and become hostages. But the emotion revealed in those words was truly too horrific, too terrifying...
“Hahaha, so, so charming…”
"Princess!?"
Miss Fenli finally couldn't hold it in any longer and cried out loudly because the princess was breathing rapidly in a trance.
Hearing Fenli's near-wail, Edel and the others immediately turned their attention to Tio. However, by then, Tio had already returned to her serious, 'Super Tio-san' mode. Fenli slapped the floor in frustration, frantic at how no one had noticed the princess's abnormality.
However, before she could open her mouth, the images projected in the air continued to broadcast many shocking scenes, and she had no chance to interrupt.
Everyone who saw Eshid's appearance clenched their fists and felt heartbroken for Hajime's crying.
When Esid and Yarbu declared their intention to destroy the world, everyone was filled with righteous indignation. Seeing Tio and the others fight, everyone was filled with genuine awe. Witnessing Hajime's "Negation of Existence," they were speechless.
Unconsciously, Finley herself was absorbed in watching this heroic fight to the death. Even though Tio called out "Master" several times in the video, she didn't care at all.
The video ended with Hajime and the others discussing their future plans. Seeing this, the dragons completely understood Tio's reason for returning home. Everyone took a deep breath, trying to calm their excitement.
“…I see. It’s indeed ‘the time’.”
Edel spoke, his tone solemn and filled with emotion. Hearing his words, the dragons no longer wavered. What they had to do was clear, and everyone was already aware of it, ready to face it at any moment.
"My fellow countrymen! Now is the time to rise! The moment to demonstrate the meaning of our existence has finally arrived!"
Edel stood up, stood next to Tio, and put his hand on her shoulder.
The two looked at each other and nodded.
Then, to the high-spirited dragons, Edel displayed his kingly majesty and shouted out orders.
"Prepare for battle! We'll risk everything we have in this battle—"
"Ahh! It's coming, it's coming really hard! Master! It's almost there, just a little more and I'll reach an unprecedented orgasm, ahhhhhhh!"
"Alright, leave it to me! You useless stupid dragon!"
The "past video" that was still playing seemed to be showing a certain scene again.
Everyone looked up into the air with stiff expressions.
What everyone saw was Tio lying on the ground with her hands and knees, accepting the reward from her master.
Bang, snap, bang, the slapping sounds never stopped. A terrible whip covered with spikes kept hitting Tio's tempting and beautiful big buttocks with strong force and fast enough to leave afterimages.
Every time Tio was beaten, her expression was filled with ecstasy. Her mouth kept panting, drooling, her breathing became unusually rapid, and her eyes were filled with tears of joy...
Other people can be seen in the back, including Kaori, who is holding her head in distress, and Aiko and Yuka, whose faces are flushed...
Before setting off, I decided to use Pain Conversion to increase my speed for long-distance flight. This was necessary to maximize its effectiveness. I think the scene at that time is also included in the video.
"I'll give you the final blow. Prepare! Take it, you unprecedented pervert!"
"Thank you so much!"
Finally, Hajime slapped Tio's buttocks directly with his palm. Tio's whole body twitched continuously, and she thanked him with gratitude.
Then, Hajime helped Tio up, a bright smile on his face. There was even a hint of kindness in that expression.
"Huh, that should be enough. Tio, how about this?"
"Hah, uh, yes! It's so, so good. My heart has flown to the end of the world."
The princess' smile was so happy that it was hard to look at it.
"Ah, I accidentally broadcast even private footage. I'm so sorry."
Apparently, after recording the Demon King's Castle footage, this useless dragon also recorded a commemorative video of her own. For some reason, even though the shocking, almost grotesque, footage was being broadcast in front of her family, she showed no sign of anxiety, simply saying, "I'm a little embarrassed," with the shy expression of a normal girl.
The compatriots all turned their eyes to Tio, and the embarrassment made everyone's movements extremely stiff, like a clockwork doll that had forgotten to be oiled.
The entire square was dead silent, which could be said to be the quietest moment in the past five hundred years.
At this time, the bravest young man, Listas, couldn't help but speak.
“Who are you!?”
His speech was so disrespectful and amounted to insubordination. It would not be surprising if he was beaten up by his compatriots on the spot.
However, no one blamed him because everyone felt the same way.
"Princess! Please allow me to ask a question!"
"Fenli, what's wrong? You look pretty scary, you know that?"
"Princess, you have no right to criticize me when you have such a disgusting—no no, such an intoxicated expression!"
"Did you just say I'm disgusting... Haa, haa..."
"Hold on, and answer my question! That man's name is Nanyun Hajime, right? What exactly is the relationship between you, Princess? Why do you call him master? What does that even mean? Please explain clearly, Princess!"
I hadn't seen Finley enter this kind of "wet nurse (second mother) mode" since she was a child. However, Tio's reaction was smug, with her head held high and her chest puffed out.
"Hmph, that's a good question! Let me introduce you. That sir is none other than the one and only master to whom I, Tio Kularus, have devoted myself!"
Master~! Master~! Master~!… The princess’s voice echoed throughout the countryside.
The flock of birds flew away at the same time, as if they were disgusted by the words "unbearable to hear".
"No, impossible! Princess, are you kidding me!?"
The dark green-haired dragonman—Alois—let out a cry that was almost a wail. He was the fastest Storm Dragon among all the dragonmen, and also one of Tio's potential husbands. Now, he wanted nothing more than for Tio to tell him—this wasn't true.
"Of course I'm not joking. Elois and all my potential husband candidates, I apologize, but I've already found someone I'm determined to spend my life with. Please forgive me."
"You mean the man who whipped you mercilessly with a cruel look on his face? Are you crazy?!"
He was absolutely right. No matter how you looked at it, everyone thought the princess was crazy.
However, the princess' attitude remained firm. Her eyes seemed to be looking off into the distance, as if she had remembered something.
"I have only one requirement for choosing a husband: he must be stronger than me. However, five hundred years have passed, and still no one has been able to leave a single blemish on my black scales. For me, even pain has become a distant past."
“That’s true, but…”
"But! Master is truly extraordinary! When I was manipulated, he beat me to a pulp! He targeted the most painful areas, like the base of my claws and gums. He even shattered my dragon scales and penetrated my dragon breath head-on, ripping my wings apart!"
Tio spoke excitedly of her beloved, but no one was impressed. The princess's expression was truly disgusting—no, rather, unusually absent-minded. The way she embraced herself, her excited and coy posture was also disgusting—there was no other word to describe it except disgusting.
"Not only that, not only that! Master even used that huge black thing to forcefully and fiercely penetrate me despite my resistance! Mmm! Even now, recalling that incident still makes me so excited! That was undoubtedly a turning point in my life! An auspicious day that opened a new door! Master! I love you!!"
The princess's soul-stirring cry enveloped the entire island.
Suddenly...
"L-Listas! Hold on!!"
"No, he's not breathing! He's almost dying of shock!"
"A-Elois, Elois? Wait, what's going on? Wake up! I'm not a princess!"
Listas and about half of the men fainted from shock. The other half of the men and Alois fell into a state of delirium, mistaking those around them for the princess.
The children cried and screamed, the women looked up at the sky in despair. More than half of the elderly were about to pass away.
As the war approaches, the isolated island has fallen into a hellish state.
"Lord Edel! The princess has gone mad! Perhaps she's been bewildered by dark magic... Lord Edel?"
At this time, the only person they can rely on is Edel, the grandfather and clan leader. He will definitely restore Tio to normal - everyone hopes so. But...
"He, he actually fainted while standing..."
Grandpa Edel stood there and rolled his eyes because of the changes in his precious granddaughter.
"Ms. Fenley! I can only rely on you now—"
"Haha, Princess, don't worry. I, Finley, will always be with you."
Even when Finley tried to wake the princess, she was talking to the trees nearby. The way she leaned down to speak, it seemed as if she was talking to a young Tio. Apparently, her escapism had caused her memory to regress.
"...Everyone, what's wrong with you? I finally found my ideal husband (master), so you should probably give me some blessings...?"
"""""impossible!"""""
The female dragons who still had a breath left (?) rebuked him in unison. This was only natural.
Finally, Elder Cartus stepped in to calm the crowd, finally quelling the chaos. He then said to Tio, "Princess, please wait somewhere else while we prepare to march." He then expelled her from the square, a disrespect unbecoming of a princess.
"This, this is my new concubine... Everyone should accept me..." Tio muttered to herself, and walked to the outskirts of the village in frustration.
After that, Tio walked around the suburbs quietly by herself.
The places where she played as a child, the places where she practiced, the secret spots in the forest that were especially suitable for viewing the moon, the beaches that were perfect for holding parties... She was filled with emotion as she wandered around the places full of memories.
Although the dragon people live in seclusion in this secret village, they do not have any memories of sadness or grievances during their days here.
Tio loved her compatriots deeply and was loved by them. She lived in love for more than five hundred years.
but……
"Still hungry and thirsty."
She thought so. Compared to the exciting days after meeting him, it was indeed so.
Because of this, even though she had only been away from her hometown for a few months, she already felt a surge of nostalgia. Compared to the five hundred years she had spent here, the few months she had spent with Hajime and the others felt even longer.
Before she knew it, Tio's steps naturally headed west.
She walked through the sunlit woods, listening to the sound of the waves, until she finally arrived at the cemetery. The lush, overgrown cemetery looked a little dim, with several tombstones neatly arranged.
In fact, the dragons also want to bury the dead in sunny places such as capes, but they have to live a life of concealment.
While magic could be used to conceal the existence of the settlement, erecting a tombstone in a conspicuous location far from home could risk being accidentally discovered by outsiders. Nor could the remains be returned to the sea; if they were washed ashore by the waves, the consequences would be disastrous.
Therefore, the cemetery can only be built in such a hidden and dim place. Even so, it is still a sacred place for the dragon people.
Because, not only the compatriots who were unable to join the clan's great aspirations, but also the souls of the compatriots whose remains could not be found finally rest here, including—
"Father, mother, your daughter has returned to report."
The dragons believed that the souls of their compatriots who died during the great persecution would eventually return to this place.
At the deepest part of the cemetery, there was a small fenced area with white tombstones in the center. The names engraved on the tombstones were those of Theo's father, Hulga Kuralus, and her mother, Orna Kuralus.
Then, Tio began to speak slowly.
She told her parents about her journey and the thoughts and feelings she felt, expressing herself joyfully and wholeheartedly, like a young child asking her parents to listen.
Just like that, when his voice started to become hoarse—
"Just as Father said."
My father said that one day, someone capable of defeating that being will appear.
Theo was filled with pride. Her father's dying prophecy had come true.
"I finally waited for him. My life is worthwhile."
Tio smiled wryly and scratched her cheek.
"When I first followed him, I simply wanted to use him. My instincts told me to 'never take my eyes off this man.' There was no such thing as a delicate love relationship. Instead, it was a darker, more dangerous excitement that fueled the dark fire within me, driving my body and soul."
Tio clenched her hands in front of her chest, expressing her desire for revenge.
"I saw flames. Like me, he harbors the fire of destruction within him. I even thought this man might be the disaster itself. Perhaps fighting disaster with disaster, fighting poison with poison, might work."
"But—" Tio raised her head, her expression turning apologetic.
Her expression was like a clear spring in the forest, limpid and gentle. At the same time, it was also the expression of a woman filled with desire, like a dragon clutching treasure.
"What's troubling is that, once he accepts me, he displays boundless tolerance. He accepts my desire for revenge, my mission, the creed I carry—everything. But he won't hold me in his palm and pamper me, nor will he unilaterally fulfill my wishes. Instead, he meticulously crafts weapons for me, hands them to me, and says, 'Here, you should be able to handle this, right?'"
At this point, Tio couldn't help laughing.
In the story between her and Hajime, even when the princess was captured by the bad guys and the prince came to save her, the prince would not say to her, "Don't worry, I will protect you!" Instead, he would say, "Princess, I brought you the most powerful weapon just for you. You should be fine now, right? I will protect you."
"He possesses a stalwart composure, and when reprimands are due, he rebukes without mercy. This is his way of caring. I have grown to love him for this very reason, and I am captivated by him. I truly regret not being able to introduce the man I love to my father and mother in person... Isn't that right, Grandpa?"
