Momon-san can I ask for your service again and I am sure this would be the last and I will then give you your compensation" shyly said Tatsumaki as she pleaded with her eyes like a cute cat. "I still have a lot of time to spare so I will take your offer then" said Momon.
"Thank you, Momon-san! As you can see it is already getting dark and our carriage is destroyed so I want you to escorts us back to the Kingdom" happily said Tatsumaki as she will have again another chance to sit on Momon's shoulder. "Do you know the way?" asked Momon. "Oh I know the way, Momon-san" immediately said Cecil as she raised her right hand.
"Then let's go, I will protect you ladies till we get to the Kingdom safely" proudly said Momon. "Uhmmm....Momon-san?" suddenly asked Tatsumaki as she moved closer at him. "What is it, Tatsumaki-san?" asked Momon in return.
"C-can I ride at your s-shoulders again?" shyly asked Tatsumaki with her face red like a tomato. Momon can only laugh then said, "sure why not" as he knelt down to carry the loli Tatsumaki.
"U-uhmmm....Momon-san!" suddenly Cecil startled the two.
"Uhhhh...yes?" asked Momon as he stared at Cecil. "C-can I also r-ride at your s-shoulder?" said Cecil as she gripped her maid outfit and is sweating profusely. "Hahaha, sure I can carry you too" laughed Momon not noticing the glare Tatsumaki has on him.
"Ngngngng" Tatsumaki can only grit her teeth as she ride on Momon's shoulder together with her maid Cecil. "Let's go, we're losing daylight" said Momon as he followed the direction Cecil gave him. After an hour the trio then reached the Kingdom's gate and it sure is a big one and there are two guards outside.
"Halt!" one of the guard yelled at them not noticing that the princess of the Kingdom is at this man's shoulder. "Where's your identification card?" asked the guard. "Uhmmm...I currently don't have one yet" said Momon. "Looking at your equipment, you must be a high ranking adventurer maybe Rank B or higher so why don't you have one?" asked the guard.
"Ehem" Tatsumaki can't take it anymore and took out her royal badge that symbolises the royal family of the Kingdom stunning the guard. "I'm sorry your Highness, I didn't know that it is you please forgive this lowly one" apologized the guard. Tatsumaki doesn't usually appear at public that's why only a select few knew how she looked. "It is fine just let us pass" said Tatsumaki not taking any offense.
"Yes, your Highness!" immediately said the guard as he yelled at the other guard to open the gate. "You may go now, your Highness" said the guard while bowing down. "Thank you" said Tatsumaki as they entered the kingdom.
"It's good to be back" said Cecil as she sat on Momon's shoulder.
"Momon-san can you take us to the Royal Palace, I don't have any money on me" said Tatsumaki as she tries to savor every moment with her hero. "Then to the Royal Palace we go" said Momon as they walk slowly towards it.
The people can't help but look at this adventurer with his flashy equipment and the two beauties sitting on his shoulders.
"Guhhh...that guy sure is lucky to have two beauties waiting on him" said an adventurer. "You fool, just look at his equipment and body, he is the ideal man for any girl and I think he is also a high ranking adventurer" said his comrade. "Really! Just by having an amazing gear will garner me beauties?" curiously asked the adventurer. "Ofcourse because this world's one and absolute rule is survival of the fittest" said his comrade.
"Aren't we attracting too much of a crowd?" asked Cecil noticing that more and more people are watching them as they walk towards the Royal Palace. "Leave them be, looks won't kill" said Tatsumaki because she knew that as long as they won't know that she's the Kingdom's princess then they'll be alright.
"We're almost there, Momon-san" said Cecil as the Royal Palace can be seen 50 meters away from them. The two royal guards at the entrance noticed Momon exuding the air of a powerful individual so they immediately raised their guard. "Halt! Identify yourself!" said one of the royal guard with his halberd pointing at the trio. "My name is Momon" he said as he put the loli Tatsumaki and the maid Cecil down.
"Princess Tatsumaki!" immediately said one of the royal guard as he noticed the Kingdom's princess at the gate. "You fool, do you not know who she is?!" the other royal guard scolded the one who stopped them. "I-I'm sorry, please forgive my impudence!" immediately said the guard as he bowed his head.
"Please forgive him, princess, he is still new to the job" apologized the other royal guard. "It is fine" said Tatsumaki. "Please open the gate, I want to meet my father" said Tatsumaki. "Yes!" both the royal guards said simultaneously.
"Woah this ain't a Royal Palace for nothing" praised Momom because the courtyard is indeed decorated and beautiful exuding the air of peacefulness and calmness. "Let's go inside, Momon-san" said Tatsumaki as she held Momon's hand through his gloves as they went inside.
"Princess, please be careful" said Cecil because this is the very first time that the princess is acting this way, is it because of Momon? The royal guard then came back with Tatsumaki's father Roland Senritsu at the back. "My daughter you are safe!" said the king as he dashed to grab his daughter. "I'm not a kid anymore, dad" said Tatsumaki as she tries to wedge her way out of her father's embrace.
"Oh come on, don't be too harsh on your father, I'm worried sick when I received the news that you got delayed and thought that something is wrong" said the King as he put his daughter down. "It's thanks to Momon-san for rescuing us" said Tatsumaki. "Momon-san? Who's that?" asked the king. "The one at your back?" said Tatsumaki. "Back? What are you even talking about?" said the king. "Hello there" suddenly said Momon making the king felt shiver down his spine.
"Uhhh...hi" said the King. "I never even felt his presence when I came here, this man must not be offended at any cost" thought the King because angering a man this caliber will be problematic for the Kingdom.
