You think you're worthy of saving the world?

What a load of crap! You might as well just wipe out Gray Castle, then sweep away all the witches on the surface and take the "royal road to conquest" route!

The Crimson Witch had finished reading the secret letter. Her expression was grave, and she realized that the situation was not good.

In her original plan, Grey Castle would be the first to conquer Valpurgis Territory, thus revealing the existence of the witch to the world.

When the witch war broke out, she was prepared to sacrifice herself to pave the way for future generations and perish together with the saintess.

But now, the situation has changed; the initiative is no longer in their hands, but in the hands of humans.

Witches were already outnumbered... and now they're even more so, with elves becoming enemies too!

The "Crimson Witch" gripped the letter tightly, looking at her master with unease in her eyes.

"We've probably been exposed. The combined human and elven forces will now do everything in their power to find the coordinates of Graycastle and launch a preemptive attack."

The witches' stronghold, Gray Castle, cannot be seen with the naked eye; the ritual magic chanted by ten witches is hidden in the gaps of time and space.

But if the Vatican also takes action, it's only a matter of time before this place is discovered.

“However, my king… your identity has not yet been revealed to humans.”

Yuri turned to look at the boundless night sky outside the window: "So, you want me to abandon you and the witches of Graycastle?"

The Crimson Witch nodded solemnly and said, "As long as you live, the witch still has a future. So please..."

"Hmph... I was really underestimated."

Yuri reached out and touched the "Crimson Witch's" cheek, smiling as she said, "The current situation is completely under my control."

"Owner……!"

"Yan Hong, you are the only witch I have chosen in this era to form a contract with me."

I have no intention of changing the witch, so you only need to follow my will, stay by my side, and record my conquest of the world.

"But, Your Majesty... what exactly do you intend to do next..."

After the "Crimson Witch" asked that question, Rosalia and Tia's faces appeared in Yuri's mind.

"Since the other side intends to strike first, then we must act one step ahead of them."

Ten days later, a dueling tournament will be held in the Valpugis territory to select a "Hero"... and bestow upon him the title of Savior? Ridiculous!

Queen Grey Castle filled a glass with deep red wine, which Yuri took and drank in one gulp.

"When the time comes, will you come with me to see my old friends?"

……

……

……

The courtyard of the lord's residence in Valpugis.

"…………ah!!!"

With a scream, the elven girl was sent flying, her weapon slipping from her hand as she crashed heavily to the ground.

Opposite her stood a beautiful woman dressed in crimson under the moonlight.

Her demeanor was dignified, and her tall figure was imposing.

Her expression was solemn, but her sharp eyes were full of fighting spirit.

Despite possessing extraordinary beauty and a magnificent temperament, she is less a sexy and charming noblewoman and more a proud and unyielding warrior queen.

She is none other than the "Empress".

Rosalia glanced at the blonde elf girl who was lying on the ground struggling in the distance, and sheathed her longsword.

News of the dueling tournament to be held in Valpurgis territory had already spread early this morning, and she and Tia had begun their final preparations for the war, including sword sparring with the elven princess.

"Fate is truly unpredictable," Rosalia thought.

Contrary to her experiences in the real world, this time she became the teacher of the "Eternal Queen".

"That's enough practice for tonight. Go back and get some rest, we'll continue tomorrow, Tia."

After saying this, Rosalia turned and left.

"No! Please wait!"

Tia picked up the longsword that had fallen to the ground, struggled to her feet, and wiped the dirt from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand.

"Madam! Please continue with me... please continue to instruct me!"

“You will continue to grow stronger in the future, there’s no need to rush,” Rosalia said to her with her back to her.

Tia shook her head: "No...it's not like that. It's not that I can't right now, I want to become stronger right now!"

Celeste...

Rosalia took a deep look at her best friend from her youth.

Looking at the elven girl's battered and bruised appearance, he asked softly, puzzled.

"You only met Yuri once... Is it really necessary to go to such lengths for him?"

Hearing her ask this, Tia nodded heavily: "Although Yuri and I have only known each other for a short day."

But this day is more special to me than the past century, and it will never be replaced.

I left the land of the elves in order to become the hero I admired.

I once thought that as long as I kept helping others, I would one day become a hero who would be remembered in history.

But it was only after meeting Yuri and losing her that I realized my mistakes and my arrogance.

Even if it's just for him, I will become as strong as possible. I want to avenge him.

Even if I can never be a hero again, it doesn't matter.

"……I see."

Rosalia sighed helplessly.

The moment permission was granted, the golden-haired elf, enveloped in spiritual energy, transformed into a gust of wind and charged forward.

However, Rosalia easily deflected the powerful slash she was pouring all her strength into with a simple swing.

In her youth, Rosalia was also extremely obsessed with practicing personal martial arts.

Although she gave up martial arts after the age of twenty and turned her attention to alchemy, in terms of swordsmanship alone, she is still superior to her 17-year-old daughter, "Sword Princess".

Even though Tia came on strong, she showed signs of weakness after a few rounds, and this was only because Rosalia was fighting her as a sparring partner.

The young elven queen was still quite inexperienced in both the application of spiritual power and martial arts, but Rosalia sensed a strong will in her.

Hehe, nice expression...

Feeling the conviction of her best friend, Rosalia began to believe that she would not lose this singularity.

She will join Ceres in slaying all the witches, saving Yuri's life, and then—

Once back in the real world, let's reunite with Yuri and Celestia and share these wonderful memories.

"No matter who the enemy I'm about to face is, it's fine..."

After knocking Tia away again, the "Empress" revealed a calm smile.

"Will you win?"

066 Rosa: There are cows!!!

The Kingdom of the Sacred Tree.

The magnificent Elven royal court was shrouded in silence.

A subtle embarrassment lingered on Celestia's face, which was hailed as "the most beautiful in the world."

Her three daughters, the three princesses of the Holy Tree Kingdom, were no better off.

First Princess Elutia had a strange expression, her full lips pursed as if she were trying to suppress a laugh.

Princess Grandia frowned, her expression one of disbelief, as she kept glancing at her mother out of the corner of her eye.

Finally, it was Princess Hiltia, the third princess, who broke the unbearable silence.

"Wow! What a surprise! So Tia is Mother!"

The girl blinked her bright eyes and said, "Hmm... if you look closely, doesn't she look exactly like me?"

I thought my mother would be as mature and composed as Elle when she was young!

Celestia: "...Goo-hoo."

As expected of you.

Her two older sisters sighed inwardly: "Everyone was trying to save face for our mother, keeping their words to themselves and pretending no one cared, but you just blurted them out so easily."

Although Hiltia is 70 years old today and has a development that is in no way inferior to her sister's, she is quite simple-minded.

The third princess was completely oblivious to the "Eternal Queen's" flushed cheeks, and continued to excitedly act as a mouth double for her two older sisters and publicly execute her respected mother.

"So, Mother was quite the straightforward person when she was young! Just like Miss Knight!"

"Yes...yes, Mom, I also longed for chivalrous stories when I was young..."

Celestia lowered her head and said haltingly, "That's why I left the royal court and traveled around... Heh, it's really embarrassing..."

"What's there to be embarrassed about, Mother? I think Miss Tia is very cool!"

Hiltia crossed her arms and said, "Full of a sense of justice, always forging ahead... well, although he's still not as handsome as Lord Yuri!"

"How rude of you, Hiltia!"

The second princess, with her magnificent silver hair, rebuked sharply: "How dare you compare our mother... Her Majesty the Queen, to a mere human knight! Watch your words!"

Also, please stop adding "adult" after human names!

"Gulp," Celestia lowered her head even further: "You should say less, Grantia! Don't add fuel to the fire!"

Just as the "Eternal Queen" had predicted, the youngest of the three sisters did not back down at all. She retorted with her hands on her hips.

"What's wrong with what I said? Tia is no match for Lady Yuri! Even Tia herself says so!"

Tia is a huge fan of Lord Yuri, just like me! Mother, am I absolutely right?
