In the Fairyland, I became the Fairy Queen

Page 23

The soldiers of the Queen's Army looked at each other and asked with some hesitation: "It's just that we haven't had contact with humans for a long time. If we can get some humans..."

"Humans? A species different from fairies?"

Guinevere said: "I don't need any human beings to fill my spiritual satisfaction, so I don't feel it."

"Because fairies with clear and strong goals generally do not need humans as a source of spiritual nourishment, although humans are completely beneficial and harmless to us fairies."

"It's just that the Fairy Kingdom has been established for nearly two thousand years, but His Majesty is still unwilling to completely relax the expansion of human pastures, resulting in the fairy ownership rate of humans has always been low."

"For example, our army hasn't received any human beings for several years, which is considered a very good treatment in the entire fairy country."

The knights agreed.

"Then I don't know where to buy humans."

Guinevere glanced at the city walls of Manchester in the distance and said, "His Majesty has given me a lot of Morquid. If you have some, I can buy some for you as a reward. After all, cleaning work is very hard."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire army began to stir.

"Really? Lord Guinevere?!"

"Don't get so excited. I don't understand why you like humans so much."

Guinevere frowned. "But let me make this clear first. Even if you can really buy some humans, you can't treat them as consumables, and you can't hurt them. After all, they are intelligent beings just like fairies. Find a place to take good care of them, and let them live with you for a while when you need them."

"Yes!"

As if they had received the assurance from the Fairy Knight, the morale of the Queen's Army became exceptionally high.

…………

"Ah, the Queen's Army! The Queen's Army is here!"

The goblins of Manchester informed each other.

"The leader is a goblin I don't know!"

"Oh my god, an unknown goblin is coming with the Queen's Army!"

For a moment, the whole of Manchester was in chaos.

When Guinevere was about to negotiate his way into the city, he found that the streets were deserted.

"…Is it because everyone doesn't welcome us?"

Guinevere couldn't help but say.

"That's not true! These low-level goblins must be itching for trouble again! It would be fine if they didn't welcome the Queen's army, but they actually dared to hide!"

There was a voice among the Queen's army: "Such stupidity must be severely punished!"

"All right!"

Guinevere drew his sword just in time, and the sound of the sword piercing through the stone was heard.

"Since everyone doesn't welcome us, then we'll just leave."

"We are your Majesty's army, there is nothing wrong with that, but it is precisely because of this that your Majesty's tolerance is demonstrated."

"do you understand?"

The goblin soldiers whispered to each other and finally obeyed Guinevere's orders.

In the end, the Queen's Army did not stop, but continued to move south towards Gloucester.

Gloucester is the territory of Morrigan, the leader of the Winged Clan.

Guinevere did not have much impression of Marian, and it was hard for him to have any good impression of her. After all, she spent most of the morning court session indifferent to the affairs.

Most of the time he didn't say a word, and when he did, he would say something like "Gloucester remains neutral and it has nothing to do with me."

In comparison, it is easier to get along with Lord Woodworth. At least when you are unhappy with the other party, you can have a good fight with him.

"Forget it. Gloucester is a big city in the west after all. It doesn't have the power of Oxford. Let's go and take a look first."

When he arrived near Gloucester, Guinevere felt the changes that had taken place in himself.

It is said that Marian has a great mystery called the Fairy Realm. In Gloucester, no matter how powerful the power is, it will be ineffective as long as it is acquired later, which almost limits everyone to the weakest category.

Even Moss seems to be like this.

So Guinevere simply led the Queen's Army around Gloucester, forming a circle of Morse, who was almost as soft as jelly, and then left the city that he didn't particularly like.

By the time we left Gloucester, it was already the second night.

"After cleaning up most of the cities along the way, even I feel tired..."

Guinevere couldn't help murmuring as he looked at the starry sky.

"Lord Guinevere...? Do you want to rest?"

"Ah... No, we can't rest here even if we want to... Oh, there's a forest over there, let's rest there."

Guinevere's gaze fell on the dreamlike forest in front of him, which was shrouded in fluorescent light.

"Hmm... I didn't sense the presence of Moss, but there are many weak fairies living in the forest, so let's rest there for the night."

"——By the way, once you enter a place, you are not allowed to do anything harmful to any fairies there. Do you understand?"

"Yes."

"Okay, let's go."

This is the part of the British Isles that was named Wales in pan-human history, but in the Elf Kingdom, it has another name.

——Autumn Forest.

…………

Pseudo-Act 29: Autumn Forest

Autumn Forest.

The trees here appear golden all year round under the reflection of the gorgeous sky, and the night is dotted with the fluorescence of fireflies.

It's a beautiful place.

When Guinevere first arrived here, he couldn't help but sigh.

However, the clanging of the Queen's Army's armor broke the original tranquility here.

“Aaaaaaaah!!!”

All kinds of humanoid and insect-like goblins, about the size of a palm, hiding among the branches of the trees were disturbed and immediately became a mess.

"My God!"

"The army, the Queen's army!"

"We're going to die!"

While these poor creatures, which were even weaker than humans, were crying and fleeing everywhere, the Queen's Army, under the command of Guinevere, sat down and rested.

"We have no ill intentions. After all, we are just staying here for one night. We are sorry to bother you."

Guinevere, the leader, couldn't rest assured and spoke to the goblins who were fleeing and hiding again.

"Borrow...stay overnight?"

The insect-like goblin poked its head out from among the leaves and asked subconsciously.

"Well, I am Guinevere, the fairy knight who was just given a name by His Majesty. I am following His Majesty Morgan's orders to clean up the remaining disasters in western Britain."

"Fairy Knight, is that that Fairy Knight?!"

The goblins became agitated and panicked.

"His Majesty Morgan doesn't like bugs. We are going to be killed—"

"But you are not a disaster, why should I kill you?"

The forest seemed a little dim on the starry night, but there were still fireflies to guide the way and illuminate Guinevere's charming face.

Seeing that he didn't look like a vicious goblin, the goblins gradually let down their guard.

Although it makes no difference to Guinevere whether he is vigilant or not, if he really wants to take action, not only the goblins living here, but the entire Autumn Forest will be completely burned to ashes.

"No...you won't kill us?"

"Even if your Majesty hates bugs, he doesn't want to forbid their existence... Anyway, where did you get the news that your Majesty doesn't like bugs?"

"No... I don't know. It has been circulating for a hundred years..."

"That's it..."

Guinevere turned around and leaned against the roots of the big tree where the goblins were hiding, and slowly sat down, and the big sword at his waist was casually put aside.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. You don't seem to be some bad goblins. You've already had a hard life. It would be too unreasonable to kill you like this."

In the woods shrouded in fluorescent light, Guinevere looked up at the starry sky. The fireflies around him suddenly gave him the illusion that the stars were right next to him.

Slowly, the boy closed his eyes under the tree.

Although there were no signs of human presence around him, let alone a bed, the boy leaning against the roots of the tree slept very soundly.

…………

On the morning of the third day of the expedition, Guinevere opened his eyes amid the chattering noise.

"Wake up! Wake up!"

"Guinevere! Good Guinevere!"

In the beautiful golden forest illuminated by the gorgeous sky, many goblins gathered around Guinevere, chattering.

"Aaaah! Those soldiers are scary!"

"What are you afraid of? Isn't Guinevere here?"

"Will Guinevere really help us?"

"Guinevere will take them away, won't he?"

The humanoid goblin that was about the size of a human palm and the goblin that looked like a caterpillar were talking to each other non-stop.

"Well... I am just doing my job. You are not my targets for punishment, and there is no need to raise my sword against you poor people. It is not a kind act."

Guinevere picked up the demon sword leaning on the side and tied it back to his waist, saying at the same time.

"How can you praise others for their kindness without getting killed?"

"And what does Guinevere think kindness is?"

"Hmm... can I protect you from the bottom of my heart... or something like that? Kindness is not something expensive, nor is it something cheap. It is a very complicated thing."

Guinevere spoke in a language that was difficult for the goblins to understand.

"So, I am not kind just because I don't kill you. At least... at least I am willing to protect someone of yours, right?"

"Then, does that exist?"

The fairies in the Autumn Forest asked.

"I don't know about that. Well, but this is a good place, and you guys are pretty good fairies. I'll come again next time."

"Yeah!"

"It would be great if Guinevere came. Those soldiers shouldn't come. They are so scary!"

Many goblins were crying and shouting, probably because they were frightened.

"Well... Well, I can only promise that I won't be carrying out any missions next time I come here."

That was all Guinevere could say.

"Well, goodbye, fairies of the Autumn Forest."

"May no one's arrival disturb the peace here."
