Chereads / Demon lord of Zero (Fanfic version) / Chapter 22 - Chapter 2 Return man

Chapter 22 - Chapter 2 Return man

Diablo arrived at Louise's dorm, where Louise, Rem, and Princess Henrietta and a female knight with blond hair were at

"Diablo I'm glad you arrived so quickly." Princess Henrietta said smiling

Diablo always felt uneasy around royalty so he did not respond

"I don't want to take too much time so I won't make this long, this knight here is the

captain of the musketeer squadron Agnes.

Agnes this is Diablo, a mage from another world." Henrietta

(Actually its another Demon King from another world.) Diablo thought in his head

"Hello, it is a pleasure to meet you." Agnes said in a serious tone

"....(Hmn) Hello...." Diablo

"Now that everyone has been introduced I'll go ahead and ask my question, even

though we have captured the king of reconquista, their army is still attacking.

And as of today it was found that someone from the Reconquista organization, infiltrated the castle and assassinated him." Henrietta

"What about the ring of Aandvari ?" Rem asked

"It was stolen." Agnes

Diablo held the bridge of his nose in irritation

(Damn, I gave it to them because they said they needed it for verification and recording, and they went and gotten it stolen.) Diablo thought in his head

Rem who was nearly reading his thoughts, went an asked the question for him

"It was supposed to be kept for a few days and then given to the water spirit, what happened !?" Rem angrily shouted

"Don't yell at the princess how dare you !" Agnes said drawing and aiming her pistol at Rem

"Agnes calm-" By time the Princess had turned her head in Agnes direction, Diablo was already there holding Agnes wrist down, Henrietta was too shocked to speak so their struggle continued

Agnes tried to snatch away from Diablo, but Diablo is too strong, she tried to punch and kick Diablo, and Diablo let her

Agnes hurt her knuckles

"Agh !" Agnes grunted

"Diablo please let her go." Louise

Diablo did and Henrietta finally recovered from the shock Diablo gave her

Are you okay your majesty ?" Louise

"Yes, I've just....never knew someone could use a spell that fast." Henrietta

"That wasn't a spell." Diablo

"Are you saying you're just that fast and strong without magic !?" Agnes said with disbelief

"I see no merit in answering you, but-" Diablo disappeared with that last move an appeared across the room, next to the window

"How is he doing that Rem ?" Louise

To Louise's response, Rem did the same thing and appeared next to Diablo

"We are just really fast compared to the people here, in this world." Rem

The concept of martial skills or anything close, except for void magic is nonexistent in this world of Halkegenia

"Well moving on, Reconquista is still at war with Tristain, can I depend on you two, void mage and Gandalfer ?" Henrietta

"Of course." Louise says, everyone looks at Diablo, Diablo looks at Rem and shakes his head

( No matter how I see it, me joining this war will only do more harm than good, our goal is to make it back home, there's no telling when this war will be over, and why should I fight for them, I'm definitely not a weapon ) Diablo thinks

"You'll have to fight on your own." Diablo

"But ! Why ?" Princess Henrietta

"Because your country should learn how to deal with it's own issues, I am not a weapon, and our main goal is to return home and nothing will come before that." Diablo

"But many people will die. The soldiers who make this countries army, they are people too, they have families, with you joining people won't have to die." Henrietta exclaimed

"It does not concern me who dies in this world. Do you know how things are in my world that I left my allies ? The king is looking for them as we speak, because I didn't exactly leave on a good note." Diablo

"Wait, what is happening in our world !?" Rem

"I'll tell you later Rem." Diablo

"How can someone so strong be a coward !" Henrietta Said

"You dare call this Demon Lord a coward ? How about this, how can a Princess be this incompetent ? You foolishly lost " Diablo

"Diablo !" Louise

"You have the guts to insult her majesty !? A bullet is always faster than a spell." Agnes says pulling out her gun

"Not if your level 180." Diablo says and lifts his hand

( Water bullet ), Before Agnes could pull the trigger, the water bullet knocks the gun out of Agnes hand

"You didn't use a wand ?" Agnes said more as a question

"We are done here." Diablo

Diablo and Rem went to go get Siesta and left

Scene change

Diablo let Rem knock on Tiff's door, as soon as it opened she was tackled by a loli with long hair

"Hello Rem." Krum

Everyone came out

"Krum..." Rem hugged her back

"Um who are these people ?" Siesta

"They are friends from our world. The cute little girl here is Krum, the other cute girl with lewd bunny ears is a Grasswalker named Horn and the caller cute girl is Edelgard " Shera said excited to introduce her friends

"Ah so this is Diablo's fourth wife hmn." Edelgard said studying Siesta

" Diablo..really does like big breast doesn't he ?" Horn said sounding sad with a red face

"You know what...I won't lose, I like Diablo too !" Horn said getting fired up

( What is she getting so worked up for ?) Diablo thinks in his head

"Diablo sure is popular..." Edelgard says, then comes up and hugs him

"Move over Rem you have been with Diablo for too long." Shera says

Scene change

Everyone sat at the campfire outside and ate some fish Diablo caught

"So what has happened in the kingdom since we left Rem asked."

"Basically the Feudal Lord Galford kept us secret from the king, he has found us before but..." Edelgard

"This Demon King showed her strength !"Krum said

"I was being protected by the school but when I was practicing magic I saw a green slime." Horn

(Apparently the King tried to declare war on the elf kingdom, but "my cousin" Krum showed up and caused a devastation, the magic school's Dean owed me one so he returned the favor by protecting Horn, but god I hope thos poor soldiers who encountered Krum are okay, because I didn't specifically ask what happened to them.) Diablo

"Well anyways, you three became wanted criminals and now there is a large bounty on your heads." Edelgard

"What about Celestine !?" Rem asked

(This has probably been worrying her since we left.) Diablo can't help but feel guilty

about thinking how many people he indirectly involved in this mess and the person

who protected Rem before he came to this world, Celestine, he forgot about her

"Yes, she was protected by Alicia." Edelgard

Diablo and Rem both sighed in relief and thanked the heavens Diablo didn't let her kill herself that one time

"Who is Alicia and Celestine ?" Siesta asked

"Alicia is a noble and a spy for Diablo in the kingdom and Celestine is the one who took care of me when I ran away before we summoned Diablo." Rem

"I see , so you two are very close." Siesta

"Yes, but definitely not as close as the two of us." Shera said while suddenly hugging Rem from behind

"Who said you can touch me you dumbass." Rem

Siesta and the others smiled at their shenanigans

"Oh, come on, were sisters now we should act like it...Horn come here." Shera

"Umm...Why ?" Horn said walking over

"As the youngest sister you should practice being Diablo's wife as well."Shera

"D-Diablo's...wife" Horn said blushing

"Oi ! Stupid elf, are you encouraging competition."

Horn walked up to Diablo, and Diablo said

"Go ahead, we shouldn't take up too much space in Tiffa's house anyways." Diablo

(Well she is a Grasswalker, and they all look like kids anyways, so I'm sure the FBI won't find out) Diablo thinks

Scene change the castle

Princess Henrietta was getting ready for bed, when she heard a whisper

"Princess..." voice

"Who's there ?" Henrietta said looking around

"Princess its me...." Voice

"You dare spy on a lady at night, the Princess no less, I'm calling the guards !" Henrieta

"No, look out of the window." Voice

Henrietta looked out of the window and seen....Prince Wales

"How are you Princess ?" Wales

Tears came flowed from Henrietta's eyes

"Impossible ! Your supposed to be dead !" Henrietta said while crying

"That wasn't me that was my double." Wales said with a smile

"Look Henrietta, I want you to come with me back to Albion." Wales

"But you know how dangerous your country is right now..." Henrietta

"I know, but are you really going to forget the promise we made on the water spirit, to be together forever." Wales

Flashback around three years ago

Henrietta was bathing in the lake and she heard a noise, coming out from the forest was Prince Wales

"Prince Wales...." Henrietta

"Princess Henrietta...." Wales

"What are you doing out here ?" Henrietta

"I needed to get away, and clear my head." Wales answered

After that we walked and talked and promised to do this together again

After about a year we were in a secret relationship, we would hold hands and walk at night around the lake together

One night while walking on the bay of the lake again we made a promise to each other

I walked to the lake and made an oath

"I Henrietta, the Princess and future queen of this nation promise to always love Prince Wales." I said with my right hand over my heart

I looked at Wales and told him to make an oath

"Wales, it's your turn to vow." Henrietta

"Is that really necessary ?" Wales

"Of course it is, I vowed my love to you so you should do the same." I said

"Hehe okay, I, the Prince and future ruler of Albion, promises to treasure and cherish this woman Princess Henrietta of Tristain for all of eternity !" Wales said seriously

We continued our night happily

Flashback ends

"Princess I want you to come with me, I'll protect you." Wardes says

I can feel myself blushing

"Okay lets go." Princess Henrietta
