My Entire Class Was Summoned to Another World except for Me-Chapter 177
Chapter 177
Lady Black Princess, this person is totally different from the humans we know of . Lord Yato has never changed his attitude and continued treating us supernatural creatures in a normal manner; he has saved us from life-threatening dangers . He is definitely not someone who will deceive us!”
“Even if I’m told that… No matter how much Ouka says that, it’s not proof of statement and I can’t trust him . ”
Well that’s of course .
I’m happy that Ouka has been desperately trying to protect me, but no one was convinced with just her emotions .
“We are not only concerned with Ouka’s matters; it will also trouble us if more humans know of our existence, the supernatural creatures . ”
Black Princess looked at me with a troubled appearance .
“For a long time till now, we have cut all contacts with humans . Thanks to that, we are able to lead peaceful lives now . We want to avoid things repeating from history . ”
In the past, supernatural creatures were persecuted by the humans .
No matter how much they tried to escape, they were tortured and killed; back then there were probably no peaceful times like the ones they are leading right now .
That’s precisely why the Black Princess wanted to protect that and put a stop to this .
“Looking at you reminds me of that… the past . ”
Black Princess fell into deep thoughts as she looked at me, a human .
What was she thinking about? I’m sure it wasn’t a good memory and I could not interpret Black Princess’ emotions .
“-This is so unpleasant . ”
All of a sudden, the atmosphere took a sudden shift .
Right after she ended that sentence, the atmosphere around Black Princess became heavy, and I felt a sense of sluggishness overtaking my body at the same time .
What is it? It feels like I’m losing strength all of a sudden…
Is my entire body weakening?
I immediately tried to figure out the cause of this strange feeling and looked around my surroundings to find the entire scenery tainted in red .
It’s as though I’m looking through a red plate .
I guess this is a barrier .
“Hey, why did you think I asked a human like you to come to the castle?”
Black Princess questioned as she looked at me .
“I wonder . Won’t you tell me why?”
If I know that, I would not have to suffer .
I tried to keep calm and replied with a tinge of nervousness deep within me .
At my reply, a smile unfit of the Black Princess appeared on her face .
“That’s because… in the case you are our enemy, I will grab this chance to kill you for sure . ”
Is this that person’s true nature?
It is far different from the mellow nature she displayed earlier; it is completely dark and eerie .
“Lady Black Princess, what are you trying to say…?”
“Relax . I won’t do anything yet . ”
Having been affected by the barrier, Ouka tried to appeal to Black Princess but it seems that Black Princess does not agree with her .
That’s because she said ‘in the case you are our enemy’ .
“If you were going to kill me, is it really necessary to call me out like this?”
“The barrier is not a convenient thing; there are a few preparations that are necessary . Furthermore, you do not have any place to escape right now . ”
What does she mean by ‘I do not have any place to escape’? I understood the meaning of those words .
I guess it could be the influence of the barrier but I could not use magical powers .
Furthermore, the castle army troops were waiting outside, on a standby to attack anytime .
I was most definitely cornered .
At this precarious state, I looked at Black Princess with a firm expression .
The Black Princess’ face remained as mellow as ever but the vibes emitted from her was, in contrast, eerie .
“Up till this day, I have undergone many experiences; I was the target of assassination by humans and had to train to hone my magical skills to death so that I can kill those humans through curses… Having lived a long life, there was not a single peaceful time like what we have right now . Do you know why? That’s because humans has forgotten about the existence of us supernatural creatures . If you are going to threaten this peace, I’m not going to let you go easy . ”
The tone was the same as before but there were a mixture of anger and hatred in it .
She had the same attitude during the first meeting; it is possible that she is someone among the supernatural creatures who bore particularly strong dislikes against humans .
If I were to go around killing the supernatural creatures right now, I will probably be turned into a ghost .
The current Black Princess has made that message clear to me .
“I am pretty scary when I’m pissed off . ”
With a grin, the Black Princess threatened .
I guess the person who loses composure here will end up losing .
I did not give in to the pressure that the Black Princess has been exerting, and nodded at her with my usual attitude .
“Seems like so . ”
After the end of the threat, as though the Black Princess was satisfied, the pressure from her and barrier too disappeared .
“Is that alright? You got rid of the barrier that you took pains to create . I might escape, you know?”
“In that case, I will just do whatever that’s written on the order that has been dispatched . ”
I was puzzled, but Black Princess answered with confidence .
Whatever that’s written on the order that has been dispatched… is it something that will cause harm to those around me?
It seems like the threat is still ongoing .
“I don’t know about that though? I might be willing to sacrifice those around me for my own sake . ”
“That’s impossible . ”
I myself think that it is a possible situation, but the Black Princess was determined that it is not .
“If that is really the case, you would have already escaped . ”
