The Sorcerer King placed his finger near his ear, speaking softly to someone. After a while, Peroroncino appeared in the hall.
"You want me to help the Holy Kingdom, is that right?"
"Yes, Lord Chino!" Gustavo answered.
"Give me a good reason, and I'll go."
"To save the countless people of the Holy Kingdom," Gustavo thought for a moment before speaking.
"I can't save an entire nation's people by myself."
"We just need you to defeat their leader. The rest, we will handle."
"You want me to go, but she must kneel and beg me!" Peroroncino pointed at Remedios.
Since Peroroncino's appearance, Remedios had been glaring at him with hostility.
If it weren't for the need to give Momonga some face, Peroroncino would have already struck her.
Remedios wasn't very capable, but she had a bad temper.
Upon hearing this, Gustavo didn't know what to do.
"For the Holy Queen Calca, and for my sister Kelart."
After thinking for a moment, Remedios spoke: "It's a deal! I hope you won't go back on your word."
Remedios slowly knelt down in front of Peroroncino.
"Please, save the Holy Kingdom!" Remedios gritted her teeth and said.
"Given that you're so sincere, I agree!"
"I will come to your hotel tomorrow to find you!"
"Teleportation!" As Peroroncino's voice faded, a magic circle appeared beneath his feet, and he gradually turned into light, disappearing.
"The legendary teleportation magic!" Gustavo thought to himself as he watched where Peroroncino had vanished.
Afterwards, the diplomatic group bid farewell to the Sorcerer King and returned to the hotel.
Upon returning to the hotel, Remedios severely scolded Neia for her disrespect towards the Sorcerer King. If they had angered him, everyone would be doomed.
In response, Gustavo, always the peacemaker, spoke up in Neia's defense and suggested that she go out for a walk to clear her mind.
Neia left the hotel and walked down the street, seeing some things she wanted to buy. She took out her purse, which only contained a few silver coins and one gold coin.
The gold coin was the one her father had given her. She never expected it would become the last item he gave her.
"Sigh..."
"Why the long face?"
Neia turned around and saw someone behind her. The person was wearing a gray robe. Although she couldn't see their face clearly, Neia recognized them.
The person gestured for Neia to follow them into a quiet alley.
"Greetings, Sorcerer King!" Neia half-knelt and greeted the Sorcerer King.
"No need for formalities."
"It seems you've had a tough journey. This will help you relieve some fatigue."
The Sorcerer King handed her a bottle of white potion.
Neia looked at the potion, thinking to herself:
"As the Sorcerer King, he probably wouldn't poison someone as insignificant as me." After a moment of thought, she drank it.
After drinking the potion, she felt all the fatigue in her body disappear.
"So refreshing!" Neia lazily stretched.
Suddenly, Neia remembered that the Sorcerer King was still nearby.
"Sorcerer King, may I ask why you called for me?"
"I have some matters to discuss with Lady Remedios. You go back upstairs and open the window."
"Understood!"
Neia hurried back to the hotel, explained the Sorcerer King's request to the others, and then went to open the window.
"Stop!" a Holy Knight shouted, stepping forward to stop her.
But Neia ignored them and directly opened the window, waving outside. The next moment, someone pulled her back inside.
Just as everyone was about to scold Neia, the Sorcerer King flew in through the window.
"I told Neia to open the window. If you want to blame someone, blame me!" the Sorcerer King said.
"Greetings, Sorcerer King!" Everyone bowed to the Sorcerer King, their greeting clearly more casual than Neia's full kneeling, showing a lack of sincerity.
"May I ask what brings you here?" Gustavo asked.
"I can go in place of Momon to assist you in the Holy Kingdom."
"Please wait a moment while we discuss this," Gustavo replied.
The group moved to another room in the inn and began a heated discussion.
Gustavo argued for rejecting the offer. He was concerned that if the Sorcerer King were to die, his undead followers would lose their restraint, and they would start killing indiscriminately.
Remedios, on the other hand, argued in favor of agreeing to the request. Whether it was the Sorcerer King or Jaldabaoth, the death of either would not harm the Holy Kingdom. Furthermore, the uncontrolled undead would only attack nearby kingdoms, and neither the Empire nor the Church would pose a threat to the Holy Kingdom.
In the end, everyone agreed to Remedios's plan. Neia would act as a spy by staying close to the Sorcerer King.
To put it nicely, she was a spy; to put it bluntly, she was a servant prepared for the Sorcerer King.
After all, as the Sorcerer King, he would surely need attendants.
......
The third floor of Nazarick.
Peroroncino was playing chess with the woman in front of her. There were stakes in the game.
If the opponent lost, she would have to take off a piece of clothing, and if Peroroncino lost, he would do the same.
In this kind of match, Peroroncino was sure she wouldn't lose.
"Kelart, today your sister has come to the Sorcerer Kingdom!"
Upon hearing Peroroncino's words, the opponent smiled slightly.
"Master, if nothing unexpected happens, you should have humiliated her by now, right?"
"You know?"
"My sister is a stubborn mule, with her temper, she's definitely going to cause trouble for you. As long as she's not dead, I'm relieved."
"Master! You lost!"
Kelart willingly walked over to Peroroncino's side and took off Peroroncino's coat.
Peroroncino casually pinched Kelart's *area.
Kelart showed no reaction and sat down on Peroroncino's lap.
"What do you want to do? You can do it anytime, after all, you're my master."
"To be honest, your obedience makes me almost not believe it. It's normal to refuse to bow down, like Holy Queen Calca, who refuses to eat or drink, but not wanting to bow down to me is the expected response."
"I've died once, and now I understand everything. In the face of absolute strength, resistance is futile; it only causes pain, with no other effect."
"You really know when to read the situation."
"The thing you mentioned before, asking me to choose a profession, I've thought it over. I want to be a succubus."
"The High Priestess of the Holy Kingdom wants to be a succubus! How interesting!"
"If I can make you find it interesting, it's my honor!"
