The battle between Eres against Liu Ying, Aya, and Gina did not end until ten minutes later.
It could have last much longer, but Bloed somehow managed to make them stop.
Finally, after the four girls were separated, Bloed sighed and greeted the black-haired princess.
"Eres, why are you here?"
"I came to visit you, brother. I need to tell you something." Eres said calmly. Occasionally, though, she would glare at Liu Ying, Aya, and Gina with a hostile expression.
And for some reason, Liu Ying, Aya, and Gina's expressions seemed slightly hostile as well.
Bloed felt a headache coming.
"Anyway, why did you start to battle in the first place?"
"They were attacking you, brother."
"She attacked first."
"… I don't like her."
"It feels like she wants to steal you, my hero."
Hearing the answers of the four girls, Bloed smiled bitterly.
"Really… Well, at least, this battle sobered the three of you up. Liu Ying, Aya, Gina, this is the first time and the last time that I allow you to drink."
Liu Ying, Aya, and Gina stiffened.
Then, they remembered what they were doing just a few minutes ago. Such as hugging Bloed, kissing Bloed, and sexually harassing Bloed.
Immediately–
"Uooooooo! I want to die…!!!"
"… S-So embarrassing…"
"… Hmph… I was the only one that did not get to kiss my hero…"
Bloed did not know whether to laugh or to cry.
Eve spoke up at that moment.
"You don't need to worry. If you love someone, you need to be bold,"
A speechless Bloed glared at the fix girl and smiled wryly.
Miss Eve, please don't give these girls more ideas! And Gina, why do you not look embarrassed!? In fact, why does it looks like you want to try to kiss me again!?
Sighing again, he decided to stop paying attention to the troublesome girls.
"Anyway, some of you already saw her before. But let me introduce you to her formally. This is my sister, Eres Skysword. Eres, this is Regina, my girlfriend, the demon is Liu Ying, my other girlfriend, the cat girl is Aya, the lively girl is Gina, the beautiful elf is Elwha, and the cool girl that is dazed while drinking wine is called Sara.
"Right, the two drunk kids there are called Toby and Calisto."
"Mm. Nice to meet you. I am called Eres."
"Nice to meet you, Miss Eres. My name is Reginleif Norman. You can call me Regina."
Led by Regina, the rest of the club introduced themselves to Eres one after another.
By the way, Gina insisted that she was also Bloed's girlfriend during her introduction, only to be glared at by Liu Ying.
After the group introduced themselves, Eres frowned and looked towards Regina and Liu Ying with a sharp expression.
"… Girlfriends, huh."
Immediately, Liu Ying and Regina narrowed their eyes.
Meanwhile, Gina approached Bloed carefully and murmured something in his ear.
"My hero, is your sister a brocon?"
"... I don't think so."
"It feels like she is jealous."
"You are imagining things."
"Really?"
Bloed nodded firmly.
The sister he remembered was innocent, pure, and a bit attached to him; but she definitively was not a brocon.
Yes, definitively.
After the introductions ended, the awkward air created by the girls' battle eased slightly. However, Liu Ying, Aya, and Gina were still feeling complicated.
The three of them joined hands to fight against Eres, but despite that, they did not manage to win.
Moreover, they fought seriously. Even though they did not use all their trump cards, they did not hold back either.
Liu Ying even used her aspect and [Silent Touch]. But even so, her group was not Eres's match.
Eres dealt with the three of them calmly. In fact, since the start, it seemed like she was not fighting seriously.
"… I heard the rumors, but she is truly a monster." Liu Ying put on a bitter smile.
"Rumors?"
Liu Ying nodded and Gina's question with a complicated expression.
"You probably heard about them as well. Think about her surname."
Gina tilted her head in confusion. But one second later, her eyes opened wide as though she remembered something.
Aya and Princess Elwha reacted similarly. The surname 'Skysword' made the three of them came to a realization.
"[World Burning Princess Witch]…"
"… is she Alterna's Princess?"
"No way, the rumors are true!?"
Gina, Aya, and Princess Elwha took a deep breath and looked towards the black-haired girl in surprise and shock.
Eres Skysword, [World Burning Princess Witch]. She was praised by many as the greatest genius in the last century.
She was even called the greatest genius the world had seen since the war against the Blight.
Of course, rumors could be exaggerated, but the fact that a sixteen-year-old girl was at the A-Rank already spoke highly of her talents.
But at that moment, Princess Elwha noticed something else.
"Wait a moment. If she is that Eres Skysword, doesn't it mean that she is a princess? Then, is Mr. Bloed a prince as well!?"
Regina and Liu Ying smiled wryly. But Aya and Gina, who didn't know about it, were surprised.
Bloed forced a smile and nodded.
"Well, a lot of people already know about it, so by this point, it's not much of a secret. But I hope that you don't go around telling others about it."
"… Mm. I understand."
"Don't worry, my hero, I won't tell anyone."
Bloed smiled at the serious expressions of Aya and Gina. Then, he looked at Elwha.
The elf princess put on a complicated expression and nodded as well.
"… It looks like I'm not the only prince with a complicated situation in this club."
"Yes, you are not," Bloed replied to Elwha with a grin. "Sorry for keeping it a secret."
"No, I can understand why you did. You don't need to apologize."
Bloed smiled again before looking at his sister.
"Then Eres, what is it you wanted to tell me?"
Eres did not reply immediately. Instead, she put on an expression of hesitation before biting her lips.
"… It's about mother, the queen."
Bloed frowned. In the next second, his expression darkened.
"… I see. Let's talk then."
