Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1528 - 1067: Well... That’s Pretty Xing!_2
Though the other party is indeed a very legal loli, um... it seems that the image of the King being a lolicon is firmly entrenched in Reiger’s mind.
Just... quite a character, right!
"It’s no wonder that Her Royal Highness the Princess looks quite petite; it might partly be due to her dwarf bloodline acting up, right?"
Reiger decided to change the topic.
"Probably?" Beluti chuckled lightly and said, "Logically speaking, with only a quarter dwarf bloodline, Princess Lilicia, whose human bloodline predominates, should grow like a normal human. At least, that’s the case for other races with a dwarf bloodline."
"But Princess Lilicia insists her petite size is due to the influence of her dwarf lineage."
"She has always claimed that without the dwarf bloodline, she would have been as tall and slender as the Grand Princess by now."
"Although, I find such a Princess Lilicia very adorable."
Hearing this, even Reiger couldn’t help but smile.
It seems that the princess is very self-conscious about her petite figure.
Especially when compared with Melo.
After all, Melo is indeed a tall and slender beauty, fair-skinned and stunning, with legs like a model’s.
Such a figure is undoubtedly very appealing in the eyes of men, it’s no wonder Lilicia would mind.
Of course, in the eyes of otakus, such a petite and cute young girl is also very much appreciated.
"Here you go."
At this moment, Beluti handed the magical image recording crystal to Reiger, letting him operate it.
"Then I’ll make use of this."
Reiger took the magic crystal and, after glancing at the images a few times, proceeded to activate a spell upon it.
"[Return to your master.]"
As these power-imbued words escaped Reiger’s lips, a wave of curse power spread like ripples, blending into the surrounding world.
Undoubtedly, the spell Reiger was activating at that moment was the Curse skill he learned from Inumaki Toge—[Curse Speech].
After acquiring the "Curse Binding" development ability, Reiger found that his [Curse Speech] became not only more powerful, but able to achieve things that normal [Curse Speech] couldn’t accomplish.
Like now, he used [Curse Speech] to curse the magic crystal in his hand to return to its master.
For other Curse Masters, such a feat would be absolutely impossible.
But with the aid of the development ability "Curse Binding," Reiger successfully cast that Curse Speech, causing the magic crystal to quiver slightly in his hand, then suddenly swoosh, flying away.
"Let’s go, we’ll follow it."
Seeing the magic crystal flying away at near-bullet speed, Reiger wasted no time, pulling Beluti into his arms, causing her to exclaim in surprise as she was drawn into his embrace.
"Swish!"
The next moment, Reiger vanished from the spot, utilizing the derivative ability of [Azure] to move at high speed and chase after the fleeing magic crystal.
Neither Reiger nor Beluti noticed, but at some point, a handsome man was hurrying toward them.
"..."
Just having dealt with some trivial romantic affairs and rushing out to catch up with Beluti to explain, Pasiphus witnessed the scene of Reiger disappearing with Beluti, and stood there stupefied.
"Whoosh—"
A breeze blew by, carrying several falling leaves from outside the window.
At this moment, the silhouette of the prince appeared particularly desolate.
...
At the same time, Reiger, who caught up with the flying magic crystal, was surprised to find that it didn’t enter the streets of the Karedohart Empire garrison area, but instead flew out of the military town and into the wilderness.
"Princess Lilicia is not on the street; did she leave the garrison area?"
Held in Reiger’s arms, Beluti also realized this, took a deep breath, and said this in surprise.
"That should be it."
Reiger also thought of this, and couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
At this time, why would the princess leave the garrison area?
The answer to this question came to Reiger quickly.
Because the magic crystal flew into that completely ravaged, desolate wasteland.
This was the result of Reiger’s rampage the previous night.
In other words, Lilicia hadn’t gone elsewhere, but had come here to the battlefield where Reiger had wreaked havoc the night before.
At this time, several people from nearby garrison areas were still wandering around here, mostly investigators sent to process the battlefield, trying to uncover any trace of the Abyssal Cultists’ activities.
Armored knights were patrolling the area, seemingly looking to see if there were any remnants of Abyssal Cultists.
Even some court magicians, appearing in disguise, had arrived under the Nanierga Giant Wall, inspecting it thoroughly, armed with various magical tools, occasionally unfolding magical arrays, casting spells, checking very meticulously.
With the existence of the Nocturne Aggregation exposed, the supreme commanders of several garrison areas, including Cuellers, were probably feeling uneasy, which led to such an investigation to check whether the Nanierga Giant Wall might have any defects under the Abyss’s conspiracies?
Given that this is about the Nanierga Giant Wall, no amount of caution or thoroughness is excessive, so this area has been sealed off, undergoing serious scrutiny by personnel from major garrison areas.
Thanks to this, Reiger’s rapid arrival almost attracted considerable attention.
Luckily, Reiger was prepared and vanished in high speed movement before anyone could react below, otherwise he might have really been discovered.
"Your Excellency, over there."
Seriously gazing downward, Beluti suddenly pointed in a direction, prompting Reiger to look as well.
Soon, Reiger saw the target of their journey—Lilicia Segelros.
"What is she doing?"
Having stopped, Reiger blinked curiously at Beluti and asked such a question.
"This..."
Beluti was also baffled.
In front of or below their line of sight, Lilicia was sneakily hiding.
She was concealed behind a fractured boulder, keeping a keen eye on the personnel investigating under the Nanierga Giant Wall, her sneak-peeking mannerisms reminiscent of a child playing detective.
"Hmm?"
Princess Lilicia seemed to have a rather sharp intuition. Reiger and Beluti’s arrival didn’t catch her attention, but when the magical recording crystal flew towards her, about tens of meters away, she promptly sensed it, turned her head, and looked towards the direction from where the faint whooshing sound originated.
Upon seeing it, the magic crystal swooshed right in front of her, and startled, she instinctively caught it.
"Eh? Isn’t this my magic crystal?"
Just as she was about to fling the unknown object that flew into her hand, upon clearly seeing its form, Lilicia froze in place.
"Your Highness."
Then, Reiger and Beluti descended from the sky, appearing in front of her.
"Your Excellency? Saintess?" Lilicia was shocked, looking at Reiger and Beluti who suddenly appeared before her with immense surprise, and said dumbfoundedly, "Why are you here?"
Reiger and Beluti exchanged glances.
"Shouldn’t it be us asking you this question?" Beluti attempted to inquire, "What are you doing here?"
"Uh..."
Lilicia was at a loss for words.
"Who’s there?"
The subtle commotion between the three alerted the surrounding knights and investigators, who began to approach with hurried footsteps.
"Uh-oh!"
Lilicia was a bit flustered.
This reaction made Reiger and Beluti even more suspicious.
"Let’s leave here first."
Seeing the footsteps getting closer and closer, Reiger grabbed Beluti with one hand and Lilicia with the other.
By the time the knights arrived at the spot, no one was there.
