The demon princess was defeated and captured? Sorry, I acted in it)

"..."

Ahahaha… come to think of it.

It's definitely not feasible to put it so bluntly.

Jeffrey continued to mobilize magic power to maintain this space.

At this moment, his mind was no longer on whether to kill the two people standing still over there.

Since Princess Xue Feiya has already said that she wants to spare their lives, he will just obey.

And it doesn't matter anymore.

Now Jeffrey's attention has completely shifted to Her Highness Xuefia who suddenly appeared.

Xue Feiya was thinking about how to say this more convincingly.

But Jeffrey's words came faster.

The white-haired old man spread out his wrinkled palms, completely unlike the condescending attitude he showed during the previous negotiations with the human king.

When talking to Xue Feiya, he was more like a grandfather who was kind but a little strict.

"Your Highness, if the reasons you give are convincing enough, I can certainly do as you say."

"Does it make any difference whether you said it or not... If I could say it directly, I would have said it earlier..." Xue Feiya muttered and complained in a low voice.

"Your Highness?"

"No, I didn't say anything."

At this time, Jeffrey slowly lowered his head and spoke earnestly.

It can be seen that this old man also has a lot on his mind.

"Your Highness... The purpose of my trip here is to confirm your condition. Seeing that you are safe and sound is more gratifying than any truth."

"You are quite brave... I am not really captured. If I were really a hostage, wouldn't you be afraid that they would kill me if you came here so suddenly?"

"They don't dare." Jeffrey's cloudy eyes flashed with the unique understanding of an old man. "If His Highness is really captured, that is the human race's trump card to save their lives. They dare not tear up the trump card easily. I have thought of many possibilities... However, the only possibility that His Highness pretended to surrender was the lowest in my estimation, and the result turned out to be true..."

Don’t use such ugly words as “false surrender”!

Although I was indeed a fake surrender...

But how can we use "lowering" to pursue a better life?

That's all...

Xue Feiya is also recognized

Clear reality.

If you want to live a peaceful and stable life, there are some people who, if you hide things from them, will become even more worried and unable to settle down.

Just like Jeffrey today, who made a scene when he arrived in the royal capital.

Shephia stepped around Geoffrey before continuing to speak.

She trotted over to Xia, who was temporarily trapped in the field, and helped her take down the holy sword in her hand and placed it next to her, so that she could stand more comfortably.

Shia, wait a minute...

I have to persuade him to go back first, maybe I can make it to the end of your birthday party!

While Xia couldn't move, Xue Fei happily jumped up and patted her on the head, then turned her head seriously and asked.

"...Uncle Jeffrey, it's not that I can't tell you the actual situation, but can you promise that after listening to it, you won't tell others about it?"

"Your Highness, I wonder if you remember that whenever something embarrassing happened in my Duke's family, you were always the first to come and laugh at us, and even tell the Demon King and the Queen. And I, Geoffrey, never do such a wicked thing."

"Scold me?!"

"No, I'm just answering your question."

Although she was very angry, Xue Feiya had basically made a judgment at this point.

Uncle Jeffrey is not very good at fishing.

But his character and confidentiality are trustworthy!

In the short time that followed, Xue Feiya briefly explained why she ran away from home.

And how delicious the donuts in the royal capital are.

Listening to these explanations, Jeffrey's expression changed a lot.

Sometimes I am moved, sometimes I am surprised, sometimes I am confused, sometimes I am enlightened.

In the end, it all turned into a heavy sigh.

"Ah... Is that really the case? It turns out that His Majesty is putting too much pressure on you..."

"That's right! If I say I won't go out to fight, my mother will give me a slap in the face!"

"Your Highness, please don't exaggerate."

"Row."

Think carefully.

A bitter smile appeared on Jeffrey's old face, which was always gloomy.

"Forget it... I originally wanted to persuade His Highness to go back no matter what, because the demons need you. But if that's the case, maybe it would be more appropriate to let His Highness relax for a while... Now I can understand the decision of the Demon King and the Queen... As parents, they also have to reflect on themselves..."

"real or fake..."

"Really, Your Highness. Okay, I, Jeffrey, will keep my promise. I can turn a blind eye to this matter and leave on my own initiative in a while."

"Great!"

"But on the other hand, can you please answer my last question properly?!"

"Um?!"

Why are you so anxious all of a sudden?

"Then I'll ask."

Jeffrey looked around at the [Zero] Domain magic that was constructed with almost half of his own magic power.

Looking at Princess Xuefiya jumping freely left and right in front of him, his eyebrows twitched wildly.

He had wanted to ask this from the beginning.

As a six-winged demon who has lived for more than three hundred years, Jeffrey's worldview and values ​​are now suffering from extreme frustration!

"Your Highness, please don't think I'm old and blind... In my domain, even if the Demon King stepped into it, it might take some time to adapt and deconstruct, but Your Highness can move freely..."

"Um?!"

Hear the words.

Xue Feiya's eyes rolled, and she wondered whether she should just stay still immediately, like a statue.

But we have already talked so much.

She just remembered this now, but it was too late.

Tsk tsk tsk, it turns out that I can’t escape this part.

Xue Feiya scratched her silver hair irritably and moved away a little.

"Okay, okay, okay... I have answered all your questions at once. Uncle, you must go back and explain clearly to my father and mother that I am living a good life now!"

"Okay, so what does your highness want to do... eh? Ah?"

--what?

Geoffrey lived for hundreds of years and never said more than a few words, "Huh?"

Because of Geoffrey—he saw a miracle.

Eight black wings spread out neatly in this pure white field.

Endless white, the so-called infinity seems extremely small under these black wings.

It was as if a god had come down to earth... and dealt a heavy blow to Jeffrey's consciousness after three hundred years of experience!

"Your Highness...Your Highness, you have eight wings...eight...Ugh!!"

"?!"

broken!

I was so eager to tell him the truth that I seemed to have forgotten to collect my magic power first...

54. Is he coming with bad intentions?

Jeffrey struggled to recover from the dizziness and vomiting...

He never thought that he would have to suffer such a thing in his lifetime at such an old age...

What was that magic vortex just now?

Is that really something that should exist in this world?

"I have spent my entire life exploring the abyss of the devil... I never thought that today I would witness a miracle that could never happen... Your Highness Xue Feiya, you are really... Ugh...!"

"Hold on...Hold on! Listen to me and don't vomit again!"

"I will try my best..."

That’s why I said don’t be so curious.

Xue Feiya has already folded her eight wings. She doesn't want to hurt others or herself.

For a long time afterwards, Jeffrey kept muttering "Unbelievable... Unbelievable..." in a low voice. He must have discussed this strange feeling of vomiting and dizziness with the Demon King and the Queen when he returned to the Demon Territory today.

But speaking of returning to the Demon Clan...

"Uncle Jeffrey, is it okay for you to go back like this?"

"What do you mean, Your Highness?"

"I guess you came here without the permission of my father or mother?"

"Your Highness is smart, yes... His Majesty the Demon King and the Queen both strongly opposed my suggestion. At that time, I didn't understand why they didn't worry about your safety. Now, I have completely understood that there is really no need to worry..."

"So, if you go back like this, will anything good happen to you?"

In the demon tribe, if a subject takes any major action, according to convention, he must first obtain approval from a member of the royal family.

This is the strictness of the power system that puts strength first.

If a subordinate acts on his own and disobeys orders, he will face more than just punishment. He may even have difficulty keeping his title. In the worst case, he may be killed.

Jeffrey's unauthorized invasion of the Kingdom of Orus was extremely serious in nature.

However, Jeffrey was not in a hurry. He waved his hands, covered his mouth and chuckled twice, indicating that it was okay.

But what he said next attracted Xue Feiya's attention.

"Your Highness, don't worry. Since I'm here, I must have obtained the royal authorization. There is no doubt about that."

"Huh? My father and mother didn't allow you to come, and neither did I? Who else in the royal family could be... uh, no way."

"Yes, and... Your Highness, the Second Princess, to be honest... I came here today because Your Highness personally found me and proposed this idea. I thought it was feasible, so I agreed to it and accompanied Your Highness here to make trouble..."

“Belis?!” Xue Feiya’s expression was so wonderful! “No, no, no, no, who would believe that! Just Belis? Can she care about me? Can she let you come to see if I am doing well? Compared to this possibility, I would rather believe that big fish can slide on the ice!”

"Your Highness...it is indeed true, and big fish can indeed glide on the ice."

“So…!”

"It's almost time."

Jeffrey felt the reserves of magic in his body.

After maintaining [Zero] for such a long time, and being hit by a super headbutt from Princess Xuefia, he could no longer hold on and needed to return to the Demon Clan to recuperate for a while.

Oh... I almost lost my life here. Both princesses are so worrying...

"Your Highness, as agreed, I will leave for now, but I will keep Zero open for a while. The Second Princess is nearby. If you have anything to ask, please speak to her."

"Bellis is around?!"

"yes..."
