The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 421: Punishment for the Rude Prince

the next morning.

Led by the messenger, they came to the royal city of Elrod and were shocked by the size and luxury of the castle.

Megumin wanted to use explosion magic here, and Aqua wanted to change the flag on the roof of the castle to the symbol of the Axis Cult. Yunyun and Darkness tried to persuade the two of them like old mothers.

Sato Kazuma was quite calm, as he had been wiping his necklace since a while ago.

This was given to him by Darkness last night.

Because everyone said they would work hard for Alice's happiness, Darkness gave the necklace representing the Dustinis family to Sato Kazuma. So now he has the support of two great nobles and seems very arrogant.

Seeing Sato Kazuma so smug, Zun Zun curled his lips in dissatisfaction.

“Hey Darkness! Why don’t you give the necklace to me? Logically, Sato Kazuma represents the Senfunia family, and I should represent the Dustinis family, right!?”

"It's because you, my dear, always want to solve the problem by force!"

"Just a virgin widow, Nice."

"Don't call me that word!"

Not only did Darkness’s beauty trap fail last night, but she was also lectured by Youyou and Huihui for a long time in the middle of the night, which made her a little frustrated.

Besides, it was the first time she saw Youyou so angry last night, and she was a little surprised at how terrible an honest person’s anger could be.

"Hey, you guys have been making so much noise since just now." Sato Kazuma said in a mature manner, "What do you think this place is? We are not only guards, but also envoys representing the kingdom. We should pay more attention to etiquette."

"...I just don't want you to say that." X5
Everyone rolled their eyes.

This guy always pretends to be a good person at times like this, but in fact his true nature will be exposed with just a little teasing and provocation.

If the biggest unstable factor of this trip is Zun Zun, then the second is Sato Kazuma.

"Hehehe——"

“…Alice?”

"I'm sorry. This is obviously my first time meeting the prince, but thanks to you all being here, I'm not nervous at all."

Seeing everyone making endless noise, Alice giggled happily.

No, compared to her nervousness, it would be better to say that Zun Zun and the others were too relaxed.

After all, this is the royal capital of the neighboring country. It would be inappropriate to shout loudly. Darkness secretly glared at Zun Zun and the others. Aqua and Huihui turned their heads and whistled, and the others also lowered their heads.

"Ah, these floor tiles are really tiles."

"Yes, yes, this is a really square shape."

Pretending to observe very carefully.

"But then again, isn't it too slow?" Youyou said doubtfully, "We've been waiting for a long time, haven't we? Did something unexpected happen?"

"Hmm, who knows."

"Maybe it's just a simple show of power."

Megumin and Aqua said this with a hint of annoyance.

The people in the city said that the prince, who was the current lord of the city, would come out to greet them personally, so they were asked to wait in front of the castle. However, after waiting for dozens of minutes, there was still no sign of him.

Indeed, as a person who asks for money, he will be looked down upon and there is nothing you can do about it. This is understandable in a different world where money is everything.

I can understand this, but I still can't help but get angry.

Aqua was furious and was about to show everyone how to turn the flag on the top of the castle into the symbol of the Axis Cult, but Darkness used brute force to suppress her.

"Really, that's how the country folks in Belzeg are..."

A shrill voice, typical of a child who hasn't yet entered the voice change period, was heard.

"Don't shout and yell in front of the royal city. Do you have any manners?"

Accountability comes as soon as you appear.

He was a young man with red hair and freckles on his face. He looked about the same age as Alice, but his height was the same as Zun Zun. He looked arrogant and glared at Zun Zun and the others. He seemed to want to show off his power, and he brought a large number of retainers with him, shouting and yelling.

Judging from the small crown on his head, this guy should be Alice's fiancé.

It turned out to be the case.

Just like Claire said, he is a naughty little brat.

"Excuse me……"

At this moment, Alice stood in front of Darkness, the retainer who had no common sense and no sense of etiquette, smiled brightly, and performed a perfect salute with an elegant and lovely gesture.

"Are you the first prince of Elrod, His Highness Levi? I am the first princess of Belzeg, my name is Alice. I came here to see you. I am very happy to meet you today."

She was not as quiet and timid as usual, and fully displayed the demeanor of an outstanding princess of a country.

Not only that, she also calmly eliminated the rudeness of the other party who had taken so long to meet her, and gave him both face and substance.

however--

"Hmph, are you my fiancée? I heard that even women and children of the Belzerg clan are fighters, but you look so weak. I had imagined someone who looked stronger and more majestic, but I'm a little disappointed."

The brat has absolutely no idea what superficial work is.

Besides, social etiquette is something that every noble has to learn, let alone the royal family, who are at the top of the nobility. However, they have been acting arrogantly since just now.

"Huh? Ah... sorry...?" Alice seemed to have not expected the other party to be so stupid and was a little stunned.

"And why are there so few guards? Is Belzerg so poor? Stop training your muscles and train your brain to make money."

After saying this, Prince Levi laughed as if he looked down on them, and the retainers following behind him also laughed wildly.

I have to say that he has the demeanor of an arrogant prince in ordinary works.

Before coming here, Zun Zun had already told himself not to argue with children, and that those who came to ask for money were inferior to others, but now his anger was on the verge of exploding.

Alice did not get angry at the sarcasm, but faced it with a very mature smile, which made Prince Levi click his tongue in dissatisfaction.

Feeling embarrassed, he then turned his attention to Sato Kazuma and the others.

"Your guards are not impressive either. They are all so young, and their equipment doesn't look expensive. Is it amazing that you managed to get here safely, or did that person... escape here?"

The contemptuous gaze fell on Zun Zun and the others without any concealment.

Oh ho?

If I don't show my power, do you really think I'm Hello Kitty?
Zun Zun soon understood that for such people, when the sky clears and the rain stops, they feel that they are fine again. It doesn't matter. What should I do if the child is not well behaved? Just give him a beating.

"——Okay, I got it!"

There was a snap.

After Zun Zun snapped his fingers, a giant dragon that was more than twice the size of the entire castle and covered in flames appeared out of thin air. With its appearance, the temperature here suddenly rose, and the faces of both the prince and the ministers turned extremely pale.

“Waaaaaa——”

The dragon swooped in close to the prince and snorted, spewing flames that frightened him so much that he fell to the ground, unable to think at all.

"If you want to pick a fight, I'm happy to help."

“Eh——”

Prince Levi was frightened by the red-eyed Zun and screamed like a little girl.

Then the retainers took a step forward, wanting to stand in front of him but retreated due to the high temperature. However, they still opened their mouths quickly and tried hard to explain.

"No! Prince Levi is not familiar with your kingdom, so he doesn't know the existence of the Crimson Demons! I didn't really mean to belittle you..."

"That's right, please show some mercy!"

"Prince, please also take a good look at your opponent! They are the Crimson Demons, a troublesome opponent that even the Demon King dare not underestimate. They have no idea what a joke is, so please don't talk nonsense!"

"And this is the famous Master! Yes, the Master who has defeated many Demon King Army leaders in succession!"

……Eh?

That's amazing.

My name has spread to other countries.

Sato Kazuma and the others looked at each other in confusion, wondering why the name had spread to other countries.

"Oh, actually I have a very good relationship with your parents, Your Excellency."

"Yes, yes. We often ask our respected parents to do divination."

These guys are building relationships very quickly.

One of the retainers nudged Prince Levi and whispered, "Prince, you have been clamoring to see the Venerable Lord, come and say hello."

"What, what? I didn't expect it to be your Honor." Prince Levi patted his clothes and said reluctantly, "Listen carefully, I am Prince Levi of Elrod, why don't you kneel down and meet me?"

"Ok?"

"Yes, I'm sorry. I got too carried away! This prince... no, I'm Prince Levi of Elrod. It's really an honor to meet you all today! I hope you can forgive me for the poor hospitality."

He introduced himself honestly and in a very polite manner.

look.

This arrogant kid must be punished.

Aqua couldn't get angry at this, so she could only grumble, "Although I don't quite understand, it's a good thing that you apologized obediently. When you said we were insignificant guards, I wanted to let you taste my sacred fist, but I forgive you this time."

"How dare a mere priest..."

“Prince, she is a member of the Axis Cult! And judging by her blue hair and the way she is dressed, she must be a very devout believer!”

"Shh, I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

You see, the Axis Cult is so annoying that even the arrogant Prince will apologize after hearing about the Axis Cult. It’s just that Aqua feels a little unhappy about being offended.

In order not to lose face again, the prince spoke in a low voice to his retainers.

"Hey, those two girls are probably from the Crimson Demon Clan just like Zun Zun. I guess that blond knight is no ordinary guy either."

"Yes! The one standing there is Sir Dustinis. Their clan is known as the Shield of the King. Every generation has produced many knights with great power. It may not be a good idea to make an enemy of her..."

"That means that the inconspicuous man..."

"No, I don't know that person. He's probably the attendant who carries the luggage."

"Over there! I can hear you!"

——Sato Kazuma, once again treated as a supporting character.
