Chapter 530: The Princess’s Ambition The Princess’s Ambition

* * *

“For five hundred years... five hundred years! I’ve spent this incredibly long time thinking... Why won’t conflict disappear from this world?”

Kawayuikko, as if talking to me, immobilized, said—

“The reason is simple... There are no righteous leaders.”

She declared that.

“Humans are foolish. Therefore, the righteous must lead them... As the rightful heir to the throne of the great Yoiyattsu Kingdom, I must lead the people. I must pacify all the people... all the countries... under the name of Yoiyattsu’s glory!”

Her blue eyes, which should be beautiful, are shining with madness...!

...Um, Extra-sama?

<...Yes?>

This princess, To put it simply, is saying something like ‘I have to conquer the world’, isn’t she?

<Well, yes...>

She was the heroine, right!?

What’s with that ideology!?

<Sh-She was supposed to be a pacifist, a cute princess!? But, five hundred years! It’s not strange for her way of thinking to be... a little distorted!>

“But... I don’t have enough time.”

And saying that, Kawayuikko raised her beautiful, white fingertips to the light pouring in from the hole in the ceiling.

And from the tips of her fingers... a small amount of black dust... is being emitted...

No, that’s wrong!

Saying that, Kawayuikko put her hands on my cheeks, and was about to put her lips on mine...!

But at the next moment!

BAM!!

Kawayuikko was blown away by ‘something’ that slammed into her with tremendous force.

Slammed into...?

No, that’s wrong.

That something didn’t tackle her.

It hugged Kawayuikko!

I’m under the effects of 【Dollfication】.

So I couldn’t do anything, just watched her and ‘him’ as I rolled on the floor.

“Eh, eh, ha?”

Kawayuikko, not understanding what had happened because of the sudden event, her eyes darting back and forth.

The one who picked her up, holding her in his arms affectionately, is—

A skeleton, wearing silver armor... with parts of its body turning into black dust!

In other words, the former protagonist of the story, Herotti!

<The vibrations from Emi and General Tekigataa’s fierce battle... must have caused the wall to collapse!>

『I’ve finally found you... my beloved...!!』

The protagonist skeleton... shouted emotionally, in a raspy voice!
