Royal Secret: I'm A Princess!

And Trevor looked more energetic now.

“It’s been a while, Princess Neoma,” Gin greeted her cheerfully. “Thank you for saving my life. As a token of gratitude, I will be extra careful when we kidnap you later.”

Gosh, for a man with cat ears, Gin sure looked good that she didn’t care about the bullshit that he just said.

[I’m not a furry person, but that cat dude is really hot.]

Xion cleared his throat. “Princess Neoma, you’re getting distracted again.”

“That’s right, my Moon Princess,” Trevor complained. “You said you weren’t a “furry person.””

.....

Tsk.

Trevor learned the modern words that she would often use fast, and he knew exactly how to use them. Like, how?

Ah, right.

[Trevor is still Devil’s Grimoire.]

“You may rest here in the meantime,” Neoma said, turning her back on the boys. “I’m a busy girl, so I’ll leave.”

Of course, none of the boys stayed in the room to rest.

Xion, Trevor, and Gin followed her as if they were little ducklings.

No wonder Paige, Juri, Jeno, and Greko looked surprised when Neoma opened the door and came out with the three men behind her.

“Status report,” Neoma said, looking at Paige and Jeno since she sent the two to survey the mansion that Trevor mentioned earlier. “Are the crows still there?”

“The main mansion was melted by the magma, and it seemed like there are only a few survivors, Your Royal Highness,” Jeno reported to her politely. “The annex building survived.”

“Ah,” Neoma said, quite disappointed. “Then Regina and Rubin might still be alive.”

After all, according to Xion earlier, Rubin Drayton was still in the mansion.

“Princess Neoma, a strong spell covered the annex building,” Paige said seriously. “I believe the sorcerer that you fought was preparing for a teleportation spell that could move the entire annex building to a different space. It was a difficult spell to make, but based on my observation, the spell is almost complete.”

“I won’t let Regina and the crows run away,” Neoma said. “I’ll go and fuck them up.”

“Princess Neoma!” her children complained with the intention of stopping her.

“Eomma, you need to rest,” Greko said while clinging to the sleeve of her dress. “Your divine power temporarily returned because of the divine energy in this house. But you almost drained your Mana during your last fight, and you just used your purification ability. As your doctor, I advise against fighting again.”

“Please leave it to us, Princess Neoma,” Juri said. “We will go and stop Regina Crowell from running away.”

“I understand your concern, but you can’t stop me, children,” Neoma said sternly. “Regina Crowell is the enemy that I want to crush with my own pretty hands.”

Her “children” knew that she was dead serious.

That was probably why none of them were able to oppose her anymore.

“Moon Princess, we’ll help you,” Trevor said cheerfully. “If you fight, Gin and I will fight with you, too.”

“Sure,” Neoma said, then she pointed her thumb at Trevor and Gin. “Children, those dudes will probably kidnap me while I’m fighting with Regina Crowell. Keep an eye on them and make sure they won’t be able to come near me starting from this moment.”

And, just like that, Trevor and Gin was pushed away by the bloodlust of her “children.”

The look of betrayal on Trevor and Gin’s faces was priceless.

[Heh.]

“Princess Neoma...”

Neoma turned around when she heard Sharon’s voice.

She wasn’t afraid to show her back on Trevor and Gin (who was obviously planning to kidnap her for real) because she was surrounded by her “children” now.

“Miss Sharon, please be assured that I will return and pay you back for taking care of us,” Neoma said in a gentle tone. “I just have some trash to take out at the moment.”

“Are you going to raid the crows’ mansion, Princess Neoma?”

“That’s the plan, Miss Sharon.”

“Then may I implore Your Royal Highness to please retrieve the treasure that the crows have stolen from Lord Kingston, the White Lion that leads our tribe?” Sharon asked politely. “We don’t know what exactly it is. But, a few years ago, the crows have stolen something from Lord Kingston. Because of that incident, our Lord Kingston was forced to follow the crows.”

Ah.

Something like that happened.

The thought that Kingston’s “treasure” may have been melted in the main mansion crossed her mind for a moment.

But remembering that Regina Crowell protected the annex building changed her mind.

[Regina wouldn’t have protected the annex building for nothing. The treasure that they stole from Lord Kingston might still be there.]

“Our Lord Kingston calls his treasure the ‘Lion’s Pride,'” Sharon said, then she bowed her head to Neoma. “Please retrieve it for our tribe, Princess Neoma.”

“I made a promise with Lord Kingston that I will free him from the crows,” Neoma said, then she put her hand over her chest. “If the treasure that the crows stole will set him free, then I shall retrieve it for the Lion Tribe.”

“CALYX, we received a report from Regina.”

“What did she say?” Calyx, who was choosing a tie to use, asked without even turning to his Uncle Raven. “Are they still on the island?”

“Regina and Dilan decided to send the research data and materials back to the main office.”

“Huh?” he asked, turning to his uncle. “I know that Dilan is a competent sorcerer. But he hasn’t reached his full potential yet. Can he create a teleportation spell that’s big enough to transfer the entire annex building to the main office?”

“Well, they’re trying to make it work,” Uncle Raven, who was allowed in the Royal Palace as his butler, said. “Regina will stay and fight Princess Neoma in order to buy time for Dilan to complete the spell. However, it’s taking time since Dilan is back in Rubin Drayton’s body.”

“Ah, so today is the day Regina will die at the hands of Princess Neoma.”

He told Regina before to “just” kidnap Princess Neoma and do experiments on the royal princess.

But, to be honest, he said that half-heartedly.

He knew that it was almost impossible to do that.

[But Regina is capable of making miracles. I’m not hoping too much, though. So, if Regina succeeds, then I’ll just consider it as my being lucky.]

His uncle laughed while shaking his head. “Do you not have faith in Regina?”

“I’d like to say that I do, but I’ve personally experienced how strong Princess Neoma is,” he said. “Regina is no match against Princess Neoma.” He grinned at his uncle. “But that is IF the fight is fair.”

Yes, IF the fight was fair, Regina would obviously lose.

But the crows never fought fair and square, especially if they were in a disadvantageous position.

[Princess Neoma, you scammed the empire for years by pretending to be Prince Nero. You wouldn’t complain if we play dirty this time, would you?]

Uncle Raven, who obviously got what he meant, grinned back at him. “Is it time for us to make our next move?”

“Yes, Uncle. Regina is my favorite family member, so I won’t let her die,” Calyx said, then he grabbed the red tie. Princess Neoma looked good in red, so he chose that color to get Prince Nero’s attention. Not that the royal prince would see him today. “Open the portal to the Hazelden Kingdom,” he declared cheerfully. “It’s time to steal the baby saint AND the Black Witch.”

“YOUR MAJESTY!”

Nikolai was in the middle of a meeting with Nero and Rufus Quinzel when Geoffrey Kinsley, his current personal knight, barged into the conference room. “What’s with the disgraceful behavior, Geoffrey Kinsley?”

“I apologize for my rudeness, but I have an urgent report, Your Majesty,” Geoffrey Kinsley said, bowing his head. “Lord Calyx Dalton and his “butler” trespassed in the portal room and used the one that’s directly connected to the Hazelden Kingdom.”

His eyes went wide a little. “They used the portal to Hazelden without permission?”

He clenched his hands tight.

[That’s probably why those crows were adamant about entering the Royal Palace!]

“That’s correct, Your Majesty,” Geoffrey Kinsley said. “Unfortunately, Calyx Dalton destroyed the portal after using it.”

[Tsk.]

“Rufus,” Nikolai said, turning to his cousin. “Send a word to Glenn and warn them about Calyx Dalton’s arrival.”

“I don’t think it’s enough to just send them a word, Your Majesty,” Rufus said politely. “I should come to Hazelden myself in order to protect Queen Brigitte and the future saint. Thankfully, Glenn created a portal in my estate that directly opens to his palace in Hazelden in case of an emergency. This seems to be the best time to use it.”

After all, the only reason the crows would go to Hazelden was for the future saint.

“No need to do that, Duke Quinzel,” Nero said, standing up- his eyes glowing red. “I’ll come to Hazelden myself.”

Nikolai pinched the bridge of his nose because he knew why Nero suddenly snapped.

[My son must be worried about Dahlia.]

“DIVINE Father, with all due respect, what are you doing?” Ruto asked indifferently. “Do you wish for me to destroy the Upper World now?”

“The future you may have been capable of destroying the Upper World, but you’re not at that level yet,” Levi, his divine father, said lazily while sitting on his throne. “Hence, your threat won’t work.”

He looked around his surroundings.

His divine father had locked him up inside a room where the walls were mirrors.

Hence, he could clearly see the slight change in his physical appearance.

When he was in the human world, his hair was purple. Sometimes the shade would turn dark that it almost looked black.

But, in the Upper World, his divine power as Levi’s son was infinite.

And people with divine power or blood from a divine parent had light-colored hair, just like how the de Moonasterios had white hair.

Hence, right now, Ruto’s purple hair had turned pale that it almost looked silver.

And his right eye was glowing red.

He hated his current appearance because that was how he looked when he killed Neoma in their first life.

“Stay here until the ordeal is over, Yoan.”

“I’m sorry, but I’m not an obedient son,” Ruto said, gathering the divine power in his hands. “Divine father, you should know by now that this time, I am choosing Neoma over the world.”

“You can’t stop what is meant to happen, my precious son,” Levi said while shaking his head. “Neoma de Moonasterio’s downfall has already begun.”
