Volume 6.5 Chapter 76: Naivety Part 1/2

A small Scarlet wandered around the castle. She had always been quite the rambunctious demon. If a person said to go left, the girl would go right. If she needed to go down, she would go up. Everything would be the opposite.

"Hmpf!" And this was one of those times. Scarlet was running outside in the garden without a care in the world. But when she did that, a person beside her sighed, "Princess, you can't run away from your studies." It was time for her lessons, yet this girl had escaped from the room.

"Don't want to. Those people are so mean!" Scarlet pouted.

"Princess, you can't behave like this. It's all for your own good." The maid tried to reason. They were so hard on the girl because of her talent. They had never seen such a talent like this before.

"I don't want to listen to any of them!" Scarlet hugged the maid's legs, "Selk, can't we go out and play?"

Selk's expression twisted when she saw that. This is so unfair. That angelic expression!

Another sigh soon came out of her mouth, "Fine. But we can only go out for 1 hour. The guards would worry if you're gone for too long."

"Yay! Selk, you're the best!" Selk had always been by her side since her childhood. She was her best friend, a maid, and a 2nd mother figure. She would scold her lightly, treat her kindly, and comfort her.

The two had gone out through a secret passage and into the kingdom.

"Remember to wear this, Princess." Selk covered the child with a cloth. Her appearance was too noticeable.

"Let's go get something to eat!" Scarlet quickly dashed off, and Selk promptly chased after her. The two had gotten some bread to eat. As the two ate, Scarlet and Selk looked at the stalls around. It was filled with different types of jewelry and other assortments.

"Princess, we should head back." The two had been walking around for quite some time. It wouldn't be long before the guards became wary.

"Wahh? Five more minutes?"Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates

"Your parents will be worried."

"But-" Before the two could leave, a thud sound came! That sound caused the two to turn their heads. What they saw was a person on the ground. Scarlet tilted her head, "Are you alright?"

From how hard this person fell, it would definitely cause some damage.

"I'm fine. Sorry about that." The person got up from the ground calmly. But when he did, the robe covering his head also fell. Selk's expression dropped,

"Why is a human here?" Without hesitation, she got in front of Scarlet, ready to protect her. Scarlet, on the other hand, was curiously staring at the human. This was the first time she had seen one.

The human quickly waved his hand, "I'm not here to cause trouble! I'm just a wandering merchant trying to sell some things!"

"A merchant?" Scarlet tilted her head when she heard that. The merchant nodded as he explained, "My name is Fritz. I come from the human nation to sell these trinkets." He waved his hand, and some unique orbs came out.

"And we have come to the end." Fritz took a deep sigh as he clapped his hand. He had finished his story.

"Aww, but isn't there more?" Scarlet wanted to hear more stories about the other kingdom. Selk frowned as she stared at the man.

"Someone stole from me!"

The three quickly turned their heads to see a demon running away. Scarlet frowned and turned to Selk, "Selk."

"But Miss." Her job was to protect her, not deal with things like this. But Scarlet shook her head, "I'm going to stay here. Go and deal with that."

"...Alright." Selk glared at Fritz before she dashed off to deal with the robber. It was going to be quick and swift.

"Little Miss, you should be more wary." Fritz shook his head as he warned the girl. But Scarlet shook her head, "It's fine. And besides, I trust you." The two had talked so much that she grew to trust this person.

"Hearing you say that is great enough." Fritz smiled.

"In the future, I'm going to meet more humans and make friends with them!" Scarlet grinned. If this human was this fun, what would others be like?

"..." Fritz didn't say anything.

"I'm back, Miss." Selk returned to them. It was an easy capture for the likes of her.

"We'll leave now." Scarlet waved her hand as she moved away from there. Fritz nodded as he returned to his work.

"Young Miss, why are you smiling like that?" As the two walked, Selk noticed her expression.

"I have a goal now." Scarlet grinned.

"What goal is that?"

"I want to cooperate with the other races and make friends!" Why stop with humans? There were going to be so many more.

"I see. That's a wonderful idea." Selk smiled when she heard that. But she added, "But you have to be careful too."

"I don't have to worry about it." Scarlet grinned. But what she didn't know was the start of the horror.
