The Princess’ Curse Placed By The Demon Lord
“Pardon me, Hero-sama. Leaving such a job to the current Hero-sama is……”
Ah, is she going to expose it? That the current Hero is weak.
Although he’s a somewhat enemy-ish person, I wonder if words get through to him.
“The Hero-sama’s strength is something I can count on. However, you are still not familiar with this world, right? Us providing support on that, is our duty as the Royal Family”
“Princess-sama……”
In other words, don’t expose that I’m weak. Pretend that there’s some other reason, is it. Well, I guess I shan’t be bothered by it since the premise is that I don’t know about the skill lock gimmick.
“It ain’t like I can’t let you find out the whereabouts of the bandit group, but I ain’t able to do something like holdin’ back the Adventurers who are planning to hunt the bandit group. ……so, since the Hero-sama is saying this. Princess-sama, you can just leave it to him as well, can’t ya. Or what is it. You’ve got a reason you wanna deliberately move the Royal Chivalric Order? To go as far as to deliberately, pick a fight over my White Wolf Chivalric Order’s job territory”
“……that is”
“Princess-sama……”
I, bring my body near the Princess and whisper in her ear.
“I have the new power, I received from Princess-sama’s recognition. If I have that……yeah. I think it might be good to test out my strength as well. I think this is the time for me, whom『Princess Alicia』……recognised, to brandish my power”
“Nn……”
At my words, the Princess’ cheeks blushed, her eyes dampened, and her body slightly quivered.
I suppose it’s because she remembered the obscene dream through the magic tool with the keyword『Princess Alicia』and was stimulated by the clitoris piercing. Distance-wise, her body has probably entered an estrus state as well after all.
However, it seems the ‘Princess-aiming’ Sword Saint-sama, didn’t interpret it as such.
“Haan? Hehe, what; does Princess Alicia-sama, have the hots for the summoned Hero or somethin’?”
“……is that what it looks like, Gromond-sama”
“Aah, that’s what it looked like”
In his eyes, it looked like a bit of ‘jealousy?’ or anger was mixed within.
Of course, the target of his hatred is……me, huhh.
However, the judgement that she has the hots for me is a sore spot for Princess Alicia.
Her face is indifferent, but it feels a tad bit irritated.
I wonder if it’s better for me, the clueless ordinary transporter who was transported to another world and then decided to go down the orthodox route, to laugh happy-go-luckily for the time being.
Going『No way, being a couple with the Princess-sama, hehehe』.
……it’s totally a provocation for the Princess-aiming Gromond-sama. Let’s not do that.
As of now, I can’t win against him physically even if I raise my level.
“Don’t tell me, did you bring forward the fighting tournament’s schedule for the sake of letting that Hero-sama participate, Princess Alicia-sama”
“……who knows? I will leave it to your imagination”
Fighting tournament? What’s with that event name that’s oozing a sense of cliché.
Furthermore, Princess Alicia brought forward that tournament’s schedule?
I wonder if it somehow has something to do with the Hero and the Demon Lord?
“Well, whatever it is. If the Royal Chivalric Order, tries to intrude on my White Wolf Chivalric Order’s territory, I ain’t gonna keep quiet either. That’s why I ain’t gonna acknowledge it. It’s a different story if you’re gonna do it by force, but you better consider how things will play out in that situation, alright?”
“Is that so……”
Hmm. Not even the Princess is adept at handling it when it comes to this?
Perhaps she planned for it to go smoothly. Or perhaps she came knocking knowing it’s going to fail anyway.
The other party is, several times older than herself and an organisation’s boss-ish after all.
Maybe she’s being thought of like……’what’s a lass gonna do’?
It’s because of me, who, on the surface, looks like I flirted in front of the Princess Alicia-aiming Mister Gromond, that the request was obstinately rejected……let’s pray that that’s not the case.
Well, I don’t know after all.
“Understood. Well then, please pass the information you know about the aforementioned bandit group to the Hero at least. ……the Royal Chivalric Order will not actually move. It will be fine if we proceed as such, right?”
“Ou. If that’s how it is, then I’ll prepare the documents”
Documents huh. Speaking of which, can I read the Otherworld’s language?
Nnー……. Nnー……? Ah, I understand it one way or another!
Ooh……this right here is the cheat!
I can read a foreign language, without the need to study!
Make me also capable of reading English! Chinese as well!
“Well then, I will gratefully accept the Guild Card and the assistance towards the bandit group extermination. Gromond-sama. I appreciate you letting us take up your time”
“Ooh, ooh. Likewise. As I thought, the relationship between Royal Chivalric Order and my Chivalric Order, has gotta be to help each other out”
Nnー, is it going as planned for the Princess? Well, we seem to have acquired the bandit group’s information as well after all. Since the Princess stood up, I followed her and stood up and bowed as well.
The Chivalric Order Captain was receiving the documents that the Guild’s associate-ish person brought over.
And right as we’re about to leave the room, the Sword Saint Gromond says.
“Princess-sama, do look forward to the fighting tournament one month later. I have plans to appear as well after all”
“……my. If the individual who is called the Sword Saint is going to appear, it makes it worth it for me to organise the event as well”
It’s an event the Princess proposed?
It’s this Otherworld we’re talking about, so it’s probably a massive event with event organisation committee formation expenses, event location set-up expenses, labour expenses, and advertisement expenses……a massive event that costs quite a bit of money.
Doing something like that, will the Demon Lord’s threat be alright?
No, it’s precisely because the world is on the verge of a calamity, that a festival is important; she might be scheming something with that as a front.
“I’m rooting for you *for the sake of a traditional Royal Family*, Princess Alicia”
“……I appreciate it, Gromond-sama”
It sure has somewhat of a hidden meaning huh. It was an exchange with the Sword Saint with sparks flying up until the very end.
◇◆◇
“……”
We return to the carriage, and then I read the document I was handed inside.
……no, I passed on reading.
It’s because the shaking in the carriage is horrible, and it feels like I’ll get motion sickness if I read words inside the moving carriage.
Let’s run my eyes over it after it settles down.
“Princess-sama. May I ask a question?”
“Eeh, Hero-sama. Please ask me anything”
“Uh, what is the ‘fighting tournament’?”
It seems to have something to do with me one way or another after all; I want to hear about it beforehand.
“The fighting tournament is……exactly as it sounds, a tournament where you compete over combat prowess, conducted with the Kingdom as its host. It is a tournament to exhibit your strength where both weapons and magic go”
“Oh. Is that like……a tournament in a bracket format, where you compete with a five-men team?”
“No, it is a bracket format, but it is a repetition of individual matches”
“An individual tournament huh”
Hmm. If a man who’s called the Sword Saint appeared in something like that, isn’t he sure to win?
“The person who wins in that fighting tournament has the honour of being bestowed the title and responsibilities of『Princess Direct Subordinate Escort Knight(Princess Knight)』”
“Princess Knight?”
What’s that; how cool. Between that and the Hero, which is the occupation people dream of?
“……and then, it is tradition for the Princess to choose her own partner from amongst the Princess Direct Subordinate Escort Knight”
“Yes?”
Eh, what. Then, it means that that’s, the Princess-sama’s matchmaking event?
Ah, is that why the Sword Saint is getting motivated? Thinking, ‘I’m gonna win and become the Princess’ husbandー’.
How does something like that, work? The Princess’ husband is, in other words, the King.
Is individual combat strength necessary at the end of the day even though he’s to become the King?
It’s a medieval-style world, so I guess your approval ratings amongst the civilians increase more if you exhibit your strength?
Princess Alicia herself is also mentally prepared to personally travel together on the Demon Lord subjugation trip after all.
“The individual we met just now. Gromond＝Lekzainus-sama is, the head of the Guild as well as the head of the White Wolf Chivalric Order. And then, he is simultaneously a powerhouse that goes as far as to be touted as the Sword Saint. In other words, he is the favourite of the fighting tournament. ……in other words, he is the candidate who is most likely to become my future husband”
“Hoo……”
They didn’t seem to be on very good terms, but she’s taking it in stride when it comes to that huh.
“……I believe I heard that, the Princess-sama brought forward the fighting tournament’s schedule”
In other words, as a result, the Princess personally pushed forward the engagement with that man?
“Yeah”
“Do you want to marry him?”
His income seemed stable. He has standing and probably fame as well. I don’t know the Princess’ taste, but……she might be thinking, ‘Mister Gromond is 100 times better than an Otherworlder, a Demihuman, or a Beastfolk!’.
“You have to be kidding. No way. Will the Hero-sama be able to think that way knowing that person’s age? He, if I am not wrong, is over 50 years old. For me, who is the same age as the Hero-sama, he is a rough one to make my husband”
Ah, I see.
“Well then, for what reason exactly, did you bring forward the tournament’s schedule? Was the fact that he will be appearing outside of your expectation?”
“That is……well”
The Princess casts her eyes downwards. Is it some behind-the-scene circumstances that she can’t say to me?
“Captain Luid. Will you please step away for a bit? I would like you to leave the Hero-sama and me by ourselves”
“……eeh. Understood”
Nn? Well, it’s fine though. Is it fine? To not be warier of the Otherworlder.
It’s the horny Orc, the horny Goblin, you know? Did you come to trust me a little?
The Chivalric Order Captain, opened the door from inside the carriage and moved to the coach cabin.
He’s speaking to the coachman.
“Hero-sama. There is no way, I want to be engaged to the Sword Saint Gromond. But……well. I want to quickly find a fiancé”
“You want to quickly find a fiancé?”
I wonder why? Is this world’s prime age for marriage, quite early or something?
It’s a world with monsters after all, and even a Demon Lord exists.
I mean, it’s a world where the average lifespan seems short.
……by the way, through the fact that the Captain left his seat, I came to be alone with Princess Alicia inside the carriage.
Since our distance is within 1m, Princess Alicia should be being hit especially hard by her estrus state.
“I will ask just in case; why?”
“……is Hero-sama, aware of beings known as Demihumans and Beastfolks?”
“Err”
I know that they exist. I can also imagine what they are. But, I have never seen them, never met them before.
“In the world that I had lived in, there are books and such that depicted races of such concepts. However, I have never met them before. I suppose they probably, do not subsist in my world”
“Oh my, a world without Demihumans or Beastfolks. How very intriguing”
I wonder if she’s thinking, ‘What a wonderful world～’, or something.
No, she judges Otherworlders as ‘that‘ as well though.
Which means, it’s just hell? For Princess Alicia.
“Hero-sama. My country, is a human kingdom held up by humans for the sake of humans”
“Yes”
A kingdom that’s for the people, by the people, aside from Demihumans and Beastfolks huh.
“In this world, there exists a country with the races of Demihumans and Beastfolks as their core inhabitants……it is called the Beast Kingdom”
“Hoo!”
Beast Kingdom! It’s a phrase I’m hearing for the first time!
There’s the Princess in the Royal Kingdom, there’s the Holy Maiden in the Holy Kingdom.
The Demon Lord for the Demon Country. I wonder if there are demon women?
In which case, the Beast Maiden for the Beast Kingdom? It sure is kinda mundane.
“Us, Cousler Royal Kingdom, and the Beast Kingdom……had a long history of wars over territorial disputes and such. Though it is not to the extent that it is going on even now……”
“Yes”
As I thought, the fellow countries are on bad terms huh. How cliché.
“However, in the coming future, there are plans to officially make peace”
“Is that so?”
I wonder if it’s because of the Demon Lord problem? It’s not the time to be fighting each other in the face of the world’s calamity, kinda deal.
“Yes. And then, the plan is for that peace, to establish through the Princess, and the Beast Kingdom’s Prince’s engagement”
“Yes?”
Eh, Princess Alicia, is going to marry a Demihuman or a Beastfolk?
For the sake of peace, even though they’re beings that she finds filthy?
That must be pretty painful huh! Temporarily leaving aside the fact that I’m also included in those she finds filthy!
Isn’t beauty and the beast(against her wishes for the beauty side), quite rough?
“My elder sister, First Princess. Sophia＝Felt＝Cousler is, lovers with the Beast Kingdom’s Prince……and as a result of dating for a long time, it went in such a direction”
“Yess?”
First Princess!? Eh, there are two Princesses?
Ah, wait, ‘Second Princess’ is written in【Character Introduction】right from the start!
“I-, I see. I wonder what I should say about that”
“……”
I want to say, ‘congratulations’, but Princess Alicia-wise, it’s undoubtedly against her wishes. She’s on the discriminating side after all.
In contrast, the First Princess, Sophia-sama or something, let alone being discriminative, she’s a furry……or otherwise aside, she clinched a perfect engagement with the Beast Country’s Prince, and furthermore, clinched the peace of the two antagonistic countries as well”
……on this, what’s Princess Alicia’s stance?
Or does this Kingdom, actually have another Prince to be the heir?
“However, our country’s people, are not made up solely of those who are pleased with my elder sister, Sophia’s engagement and the peace with the Beast Kingdom”
“I……would think so”
The Princess, is probably in that faction after all. I suppose there’s also the long history and whatnot huh. It’s the cliché.
“……Hero-sama. May I sit beside you?”
“Eh? Ah, yes”
Despite giving me a heads-up, the Princess closed the gap without giving me any say. Eh, wha-, what’s going on?
“Peace with the Beast Kingdom……temporarily leaving something to that extent aside, those who do not wish for such an intimate relationship between the Royal Kingdom and the Beast Kingdom, plenty of them want to make me settle my engagement and inherit the throne”
“Ahー……”
I see. That’s the human supremacy faction? Looks like their roots run deep, and their numbers are also plenty. Well, I don’t know, but it feels like I’ll end up supporting Princess Sophia’s side from hearing just the word ‘peace’ though…….
“As a result of that, the fighting tournament’s schedule was brought forward; in other words, Alicia-sama’s engagement’s schedule was brought forward?”
“……that is the gist of it”
Oh. Ohー……. I sure somehow came to be able to hear all kinds of things.
I guess she hasn’t really been hiding it from me up until now either?
I wonder if it was a trial period. The one week in the Royal Castle.
“However……in the fighting tournament……I, want the Hero-sama to win”
“……yes?”
If I put things in order, it’s a proposal? From Princess Alicia? You’ve gotta be kiddin’.
“Hero-sama. I, do not want to marry a man of such an age”
“Is, that so. I suppose so huh”
The Princess-sama with a sobbingly-pleading demeanour.
What a contrast this endearingness has to what she’s thinking inside.
“However, I do not have such strength……”
“Myy! You are the Hero, you know? You are capable of that much at least, and then assuming you win in the fighting tournament, I think everybody will acknowledge you as my husband!”
“Eeh……?”
This is bad; I’m confused. What’s Princess Alicia’s aim?
Did she break because of the continuous estrus state?
“Hero-sama. I already, talked about the fact that I will be travelling alongside the Hero-sama on Demon Lord subjugation’s trip”
“Eeh, I have heard”
“……well then, I suppose I cannot be hiding things from the Hero-sama forever”
“Hide, is it?”
“Yes. Hero-sama. This matter……not a word to anybody. Not even to Captain Luid; I would like the Hero-sama to just keep it in your heart”
“……understood. I will keep it to myself. Let’s hear it”
I wonder what she is hiding? I think there’s probably a ton though.
Something that she’ll deliberately reveal here?
“Actually, my body is currently……being tormented by a ‘curse’ placed by the Demon Lord……”
“Eh!?”
Is that so!? I didn’t know!
Rather, what’s the Demon Lord doing?
You sure are doing all kinds of things for a mere plant huh, Demon Lord! What a ridiculous fellow!
“That ‘curse’ is……. It is something that ends up turning, ……this body of mine lewd. ……uh. It increases my libido, and if I don’t periodically relieve that desire, I will end up being tormented by a lewd nightmare……it is such a terrifying curse”
“…………”
The one who placed that curse, isn’t the Demon Lord, but the Heroー.
My apologies, Your Highness Demon Lord.
I ended up pinning an awful false accusation on you.
I’ve sent anonymous messages to Princess Alicia.
『Price Pertaining To The Summoning: If you separate too far from the Hero, you will be temporarily transported to another world(Hero’s World) due to the turbulence・backlash of the summoning』
『Price Pertaining The Summoning: The sexual act with the opposite gender, will induce the turbulence of the Summoning Ritual』
『Influence Pertaining The Skills’ Seal: Increased Libido』
『Influence Pertaining The Skills’ Seal: If you don’t periodically reduce your sexual desires, you will see a lewd dream you desire at the bottom of your heart』
……are what they are.
They’re something like rules I imposed on Princess Alicia, which piled up whenever I use the Transportation Technique.
“A curse like this……I cannot say it to anybody else”
“Err. Is it alright to say it to me?”
“Eeh. I talked about it because I believe that I can trust the Hero-sama”
“Trust, is it”
I should be at the furthest I can be from being trusted though.
Is the way she’s thinking bugged because she’s in heat?
“Uh, besides”
“Besides?”
“It has not been long since I met the Hero-sama, but I am……enamoured with……the Hero-sama!”
Saying that, the Princess-sama’s eyes dampen, her cheeks flush, and she closes in on me.
“Princess-sama……”
If I didn’t know anything, I’d be exhilarated at the orthodox development.
This is, that, right? That that’s in the additional profile with the passage,『becoming the number one existence to the Hero』.
She accepted that the increase in libido itself would continue endlessly, and she also started becoming self-aware of her own fetish.
Partially because of my various deeds since this morning, from the Princess’ perspective, she might be thinking that let alone the trip, it will impede her daily life at this rate.
“Hero-sama. For my sake, please win the fighting tournament, and become my fiancé. And then……during the journey towards the Demon Lord subjugation, uh……it is embarrassing, but I would like you to……comfort me……”
Princess Alicia closes in on me even further. Is this what they call……soft side1!
This woman, she kept the details that it’s the price(as such is the setting) of the seal on the Hero’s skills she locked for her own convenience and shelved the reaping-what-you-sow-ish problem!
She bloody made everything the Demon Lord’s fault, turned it into a problem that’s convenient for her, and used it as fodder to manipulate and win over the Hero!
……this is bad. Princess Alicia, is a fairly gritty person.
I feel her determination of,『I will not get up for free even if I tumble!』.
She plans to try and control her body’s discomfort and the against-her-wishes dreams happening to herself. She has no qualms about even having a physical relationship with the Hero she ought to defeat for the sake of that.
‘All of it is for the sake of thrusting this Hero into hell at the very end’, she might’ve locked onto such a goal and started getting on board with managing her physical condition.
For her, even the physical relationship with herself is one of her weapons.
Her heart might not break even if I inundate her in pleasure through the skill.
In that case, my objective can’t be accomplished.
What I need is the unlocking of the【Key To The Princess’ Heart】after all.
Even if sex feels good, I can’t go back to Japan.
That aside, since she made advances to me to this extent, I’ll respond unreservedly.
Before my eyes is a beautiful young girl(currently in heat) of another world. I’ll take up her offer without holding back.
“『Princess Alicia』”
“Nn……Hero-sama……”
In response to the closing in Princess-sama……, I try moving my face nearer.
Perhaps because I’d already made her body heat up in various ways since this morning, the Princess is ripe for the picking.
Since I wasn’t declined, I carried on to kiss her.
It’s my first kiss with Princess Alicia.
“Nn……”
Summoned to another world as a Hero and having a kiss with the beautiful Princess-sama inside the shaking carriage.
Right now, the orthodox story began. ……it’d be great if that’s how it is.
“Nn, ……, a bit……stronger……”
Speaking of which, the Princess had woken up to the fetish of wanting to be manhandled huh.
I, hugged Princess Alicia, who was closing in on me, strongly and intensified the kiss as well.
“……haa……”
We release our mouths……and stare at each other.
“Will you, listen to my request, Hero-sama?”
“……yes. Princess-sama”
Like this, temporarily leaving aside how we’re thinking in our hearts……we came to take the form of fake first-time lovers.
- It’s デレ(Dere) in the original text. As In ツンデレ(Tsundere), ヤンデレ(Yandere)’s Dere. It roughly means the affectionate side.
