11 Stories The Devil's Daughter

In the dark at night, me and Empress Philia escaped the Imperial Palace.

To get to Clarice's place of detention.

For Philia, it seems like it's been a long time since she went outside the Imperial Palace.

Because of that, he looked around a little unsettled.

Filia was wearing maid clothes again.

Because you can't go out freely without hiding your identity, but the Empress's silver beautiful hair stood out when she did it, and she was freaked out when she might find out who she was.

If they find out, they could mistake me for the kidnapper who took the Empress out of the Imperial Palace on her own.

Though it's an emergency to help Clarice, I find it a little distracting.

Step into the less secure neighborhood of Empire's hassle.

"Let's do something else around here."

When I said it, Philia nodded anxiously.

The enemy says to come alone with the princess.

So put one Filia on the negotiating table, and I'll see it from where it's hidden.

When you know your enemy's power, or if you're about to inflict harm on Philia, I'll pop up and join the fight.

That's how it's supposed to be.

Finally came before the designated abandoned house.

It's two o'clock at night.

There is no one around.

Phyllia stands in the designated spot of the negotiator, and I'm lying in the shadow of the building next door.

I had a small footstep.

"I didn't know His Royal Highness was really here."

said the woman who showed up.

The woman dressed in a black plain normal outfit was someone I had seen too.

A woman of beauty and straw, characterised by blushes.

This is the maid who came to tell me that Clarice is not here during the day.

After all, the inside man was the executor.

"It was Theodora who left that letter."

Phyllia said.

Theodora, they say that woman's name.

"Yes. If His Highness had gone to consult the guards of the Imperial Palace, it would have been used as an excuse for my breathtaking guards to consolidate around His Highness"

"So you can easily kidnap me."

"But I don't have to go around like that any more than His Highness came here this way. Your Highness was kind enough to help me."

Words sounded ridiculous to Theodora's voice on the back.

Phyllia clouds her flat face and says.

"Is Clarice safe?

"I didn't hurt you with one scratch. Rest assured. We are not villains. She's not a maid of honor, but unlike Her Highness, she doesn't have dirty blood."

Philia lagged behind like she was frightened.

Dirty blood?

What the word means in the empire is...

"Her Royal Highness Princess Philia. I know."

"No, don't tell me, please...!

"You are the daughter of the devil"

I'm breathtaking.

Devil.

Being close in nature to the demonic tribe that nests in the ruins, but with the same appearance as man.

They have been scorned, enslaved and persecuted by humans, albeit with mighty power.

And they, they can also make humans and children.

"Our emperor, Your Majesty, is truly an unrestrained man. Because I laid my hands on the devil's slave daughter and made her pregnant. That demon must be His Highness's real mother, right? The Imperial Palace is desperate to hide it, but many know it in the Imperial Palace."

"What are you going to do with me...?

"Look at this"

Theodora showed her right arm with her clothes sleeves turned.

There was a disastrous tattoo in her right arm.

I know.

That tattoo was a testament to the membership of the Coalition of Foreigners, a secret society of human supremacy.

The members of the Legitimate Union hate different races, such as elves, beasts, and demons, and are illegal groups whose aim is to annihilate them.

Theodora says.

"I am, I really can't forgive you. Satan is an enemy of mankind, fellow Demons. That's what makes you look fine and pretend to be human. It's a strange thing to have humans and children everywhere, and to be confused with the royal family at the end of the sentence."

"If you want to kill me, why are you doing this trouble?

Philia is right.

There must have been a hand in poisoning me when I was in court, rather than calling me here in danger.

But Theodora grinned.

"No. Your Highness must live. If His Royal Highness announces to the public that she is the daughter of the devil, the sense of crisis against the devil will surely increase."

"Will you let me live and capture you as proof of that?

"Yeah. And I'll probably kill you in as cruel a way as I can after I've served. It'll be a good show to the world."

Theodora said with pleasure.

Philia and Theodora are confronting each other. It's not like I didn't do anything.

I was searching for the number of enemy allies nearby.

About five people due to the signs.

Sovereign magic gives similar answers.

Adding too many to the conspiracy to kidnap the Crown Princess increases the risk of discovery.

Besides, Theodora and the others didn't see the possibility of the Crown Princess coming here as high, so we don't need to divide the large numbers.

Five is a reasonable number in that sense.

I took a deep breath.

It's about time. Pull out your sword and go in.
