Anime Crossover: I Was Chosen by a Goddess and Became the Demon King

"Let's go take a look."

Driven by curiosity, the girl immediately got out of bed, changed her clothes, used magic to do a simple cleaning, and left the room.

Seeing this, Henrietta and Eleonore exchanged a helpless glance, changed their clothes, cleaned their bodies with magic, and followed closely behind Louise.

Beside the lake in the palace, the once beautiful garden is now unrecognizable, with flames, rubble, and sword marks scattered on the ground.

More than a dozen lava giants, each ten meters tall and engulfed in flames, surrounded Anies.

This is a new magic created by Katalia after she was granted the blessing of the evil dragon by Bai Zhe, which she possessed as fire elemental magic, and combined with the earth elemental magic she already knew.

Behind the lava giant, looking at the masterpiece she had created, Katarina's face was full of smiles.

Surrounded by these terrifying lava giants, the blonde female knight showed no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, her fighting spirit surged even more fiercely.

The crimson flames ignited the longsword in her hand, transforming it into dozens of sword energies that slashed at the lava giants surrounding her.

Not far from where the two were fighting, Bai Zhe sat in a pavilion, enjoying the morning tea served by Xiesta.

Before long, Louise and her two companions arrived in the garden. Upon seeing Bai Zhe sitting in the pavilion enjoying morning tea, they quickly went to him.

"Why did Katria and Agnes start fighting?"

Seeing the anxious expressions on the three women's faces, Bai Zhe calmly sipped his tea and replied:

"They themselves wanted to test how strong they were after receiving my blessing."

"Please sit down, Siesta's tea-making skills have improved a lot."

Upon hearing this, the three women could only sit down, and Siesta served them tea.

However, as Louise sat down, she couldn't help but complain about her second sister.

"Sister Katria is really something. She causes such a commotion as soon as she's healthy. This is the royal palace, a place of peace and quiet."

Although she said that, the girl was actually happy that Katalia was so energetic after recovering her health; she was just being a little sharp-tongued.

Meanwhile, after hearing Bai Zhe's words, Henrietta, who had just taken a sip of tea, looked at the smiling black-haired maid standing to the side with surprise.

"It's really good. Even tea masters can't match it."

The evaluation from a king and a princess naturally piqued the interest of Louise and Eleonore, and after tasting the tea brewed by Siesta, they gave the same evaluation.

It's only natural that the girl received such praise. Not to mention that she was originally a maid who took care of people, after becoming Bai Zhe's personal maid and receiving blessings, she was able to use fire elemental magic, so she naturally had a better understanding of the temperature of flames than ordinary people.

That's why you'll understand what temperature of water will make tea more fragrant.

Soon, Henrietta put down her teacup and looked at Bai Zhe with a worried expression: "Speaking of which, how long will it take for these two to finish their battle? If this continues, the entire palace will become their battlefield."

These are all her future assets!

In just a short while, the battle between Katria and Anies had already created a huge breach beside the lake.

If we let them continue to be so willful, things will get out of hand!

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhe gave Henrietta a reassuring look.

"Don't worry, it won't be long."

"Oh right, I remember there's a book of ancestral prayers in the palace, right? How about showing it to Louise?"

"You know she is a user of the Void System. Although she can use the black magic I created because of my blessing, I also want to learn her own magic."

The magic described in that book that could transcend worlds was what interested him most.

Perhaps, he can use this magic to return to the world of Oregairu.

Hearing this, Henrietta nodded slightly and said, "I will tell Mother about this."

She said this because she had not yet inherited the throne, and a large part of the power to govern the country and the secrets hidden by the royal family were still in the hands of the queen.

Louise, who was listening to the conversation between the two, also showed a touched look because Bai Zhe was concerned about her.

This made Eleonor somewhat envious, but for a moment she didn't know how to pursue Bai Zhe, and she fell into distress.

The three women in the pavilion all showed different expressions because of Bai Zhe's words.

Not far away, Katria and Anies, whose once beautiful garden had been completely destroyed by the battle, stopped fighting not long afterward, just as the Demon King had predicted.

"Whoo~"

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief as they looked at each other, their eyes filled with smiles.

Katalia even praised the blonde female knight's superb swordsmanship.

"Your swordsmanship is amazing, Miss Agnes."

"You flatter me. Your magic is truly exquisite, Miss Katalia."

It can be said that both of them roughly figured out the power they currently possessed during this battle.

While I wouldn't say one person could form an army, it would be easy for one person to take on hundreds or thousands of their past selves.

Katria was especially grateful to Bai Zhe. She never expected that she, who used to get nosebleeds even when casting a single spell, would one day be able to cast such powerful fusion magic continuously.

Then, the two realized that there were three more people in the pavilion where Bai Zhe was.

Especially after seeing Henrietta, the two immediately went up to apologize for the damage they had caused to the garden in their moment of passion.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness."

"It's alright, it's just a garden. I'll have someone renovate it later."

Even so, Henrietta's eyes twitched slightly as she looked at the unrecognizable garden behind them.

This renovation will cost an unknown amount of money.

This is all her dowry for Bai Zhe!!!

It's decided that after inheriting the throne and reclaiming royal power, we will drive back the combined forces of Arnien and Germanita, and then demand a large sum of compensation from Germania to fill the gap in the royal funds!

Caterina, noticing Henrietta's gaze, felt somewhat embarrassed and immediately said, "How about letting the Valier family pay for the repairs? Consider it my apology to the royal family."

Seeing this, Anies quickly said, "Although I am not as wealthy as Miss Cateria, I can offer my help. Please grant me permission, Your Highness."

She now regrets agreeing to experiment with magic with Katria, having gotten carried away after seeing those lava giants!

Henrietta readily accepted the two men's statements.

Afterwards, Katalia took Anies, who was also covered in sweat, to take a relaxing bath.

Two days later, as dusk fell, the royal selection ceremony gradually came to an end.

For the past three days, without exception, no one has been able to pull out the holy sword stuck in the center of the square!

Even students who came from the magic academy after hearing the news could not shake the holy sword in the slightest after using magic.

Chuluk and Tabasa are also included in this list.

The girl with fiery red hair asked her best friend with a doubtful look, "Tabasa, do you really think that princess of Tristine can pull out this sword?"

"I don't know, because I can't pull it out."

The girl with short, sky-blue hair standing next to her, though she returned to her friend's question, never took her eyes off the book in her hands.

Because war is about to break out in Tristine, the two girls should have returned home, but they were brought here by some strange twist of fate because of the Demon King.

Only when hundreds of soldiers lined up in two columns and emerged from the palace gates, creating a path to the Holy Sword, did Tabassa put down his book and look towards the gate with Chuluk.

There stood Henrietta, dressed like a queen in a magnificent long dress, and Bai Zhe, in a white trench coat.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two walked hand in hand to the holy sword in front of the center of the square.

The moment Bai Zhe appeared from the palace hand in hand with Henrietta, among the crowd in the square, Chuluk was a little excited and patted his best friend on the shoulder.

"He's out! He's out! Tabasa, look, it's His Majesty Bai Zhe!"

"He's still as handsome as ever. I wish I were the one standing next to him now."

She hadn't returned home immediately after receiving the summons just for this moment, and now that the man she had longed for had reappeared before her, the girl was naturally incredibly excited.

Even though she was excited, she knew she was in the Kingdom of Tristine, so she spoke the last half of the sentence very softly.

Upon hearing this, Tabasa nodded and said softly, "Yes, I saw it."

Her reason for coming here was similar to that of Chuluk.

In just that one afternoon, Bai Zhe left an extremely deep impression on the girl's heart.

If she weren't currently single, she might need to try pursuing him!

Now that she has seen him again, her wish has been fulfilled, and she will soon return to the Kingdom of Goria.

Behind Bai Zhe and Henrietta, besides the guards, were Louise and several other girls. However, as soon as they stepped out of the palace gate, they stopped at one side of the entrance and stopped following closely.

At the same time, Tabasa, who was staring at Bai Zhe, put down the book in his hand and frowned slightly.

Because she received a message from her familiar flying in the sky: Albion's dragon riders were in the clouds above the plaza.

The girl knew without a doubt that Albion had somehow obtained information about the Tristin royal selection ceremony and was afraid that something unexpected might happen.

Therefore, a pair of dragon riders have been specially dispatched today to monitor this final, true royal selection and, if necessary, to launch an attack and disrupt the ceremony.

This is intended to undermine Henrietta and the royal family's prestige in Trieste!

However, because her familiar is from the ancient times, it can fly higher than the current dragons, so the Albion dragon riders cannot detect her familiar for the time being.

Looking at Chuluk beside him, who knew nothing but showed a joyful and enthusiastic smile upon seeing Bai Zhe, Tabasa lowered his head, pondering whether he should tell Bai Zhe about this.

But in what capacity should she appear before everyone?

Being a student at a magic academy is clearly not enough, but if she were a princess of the Kingdom of Goria, there would be suspicions of interference in the internal affairs of another country...

Therefore, this girl, who is already proficient in magic at this age, is now in a dilemma!

But soon, the girl's hesitation dissipated, because she saw Bai Zhe for a moment, looking at the dim yellow sky illuminated by the setting sun, revealing a disdainful smile.

That confident smile, as if everything was under control, reassured Tabasa while also making him yearn for it.

She even felt a touch of envy towards Henrietta, a girl of the same age who was also an heir to the throne!

Compared to the students who had seen Bai Zhe at the magic academy and the nobles who had seen him on the day the Demon King arrived at the palace, the vast majority of commoners present had never seen Bai Zhe before and naturally did not know the Demon King's identity.

At that moment, the Queen, dressed in magnificent attire, followed closely behind Bai Zhe and Henrietta, and slowly walked out of the palace gates. She came to the center of the square, stood before the holy sword Balmonk, and loudly introduced Bai Zhe's identity to everyone.

"Rejoice! At such a critical juncture for Tristine, we have received the strongest support we have ever received."

"In response to the wishes of the Duke of Valier's third daughter, Louise Francis, 'Louise de Blancs,' and the otherworldly king of Valier, Bai Zhe, have come to this moment!!"

"He is the king of dark magic, the demon king who murdered gods and usurped power from them, the holy king who unites all living beings; his power is unmatched—"

"For certain reasons, our princess was fortunate enough to be betrothed to him, making His Majesty our strongest support!!"

"Even the Royal Sword, forged from the branches of the World Tree, is a testament to His Majesty's noble power."

"Behold, such a great being will conduct the oldest human leadership election ceremony today—the election of a king on behalf of Heaven!"

"He will witness the rebirth and rise of Tristine!!"

The Queen's speech, while introducing Bai Zhe, also stirred the blood of all the Tristans in the square.

A future great king from another land is going to hold a divine selection ceremony in their country—this is something never before happened!

As for the truthfulness of the Queen's words, not a single person who personally experienced the three-day ritual of drawing the holy sword believed it!

Amidst the eager anticipation of everyone in the square, Bai Zhe looked at the somewhat nervous princess standing beside him, who was about to become queen, and said to her:

"Begin, Henrietta, let your people witness your most glorious moment..."

"Ah."

Bai Zhe's words were like a reassurance, instantly easing Henrietta's tension and replacing it with an unprecedented determination.

The petite girl, under everyone's watchful eyes, slowly approached the holy sword, placed her hands on the hilt, and then took a deep breath.
