Capítulo 12: Epilogue (Volume 1)
After the meeting where Iris was cleansed of all the lies told by the idiot prince, an interesting event occurred.
After the queen's daughters came in throwing a tantrum, they pointed at me and said that I was the one who saved them when I came to this country.
Isn't that too timely?
I feel it's funny how strangely I always end up always relating to a duke's daughter or the royal family.
At least there's no murderous looking emperor.
By the way, where is the king?
There's supposed to be one, but I don't see him.
I really didn't expect to end up in this situation.
After the meeting ended, the queen asked me to wait in a different room than the one I was given.
It is large and spacious.
I stayed in a chair looking out the window until it is time for me to be called.
I am a little scared because there is a possibility that my fake will be discovered.
After all. A guy who arrives with a traveling suitcase and claims to be a foreigner is surprised by two princesses.
I'm thinking of a plan to flee in case they want to arrest me.
My real problem would be how to manage to take down the phantom troop now that I know they are the ones responsible for all this.
Someone knocked on the door as I was detailing my escape plan.
"Razel-sama, Her Majesty the queen requests your presence in the garden."
(In the garden?)
"Understood."
I left the room and as I opened the door, a beautiful maid was waiting for me.
Her gaze was cold with those dark green eyes.
"Follow me please."
Her long silver pink hair swayed like a ship's sail as she walked.
The place I was going to was far away as it had been going on for quite a while and had no end.
The maid stopped in front of a double door, opened it and in sight was a beautiful rooftop garden.
The place was so beautiful that it could easily compete with the garden that Glenn cared for so much.
In the center of the place was a table and five chairs.
Four beautiful women were having tea and cookies.
One of them was Iris, next to her was the queen and then her daughters.
In the middle of them was an empty chair.
"...?"
"You finally arrived, please have a seat."
The queen noticed my presence, the maid next to me showed her greetings and withdrew closing the door stealthily.
As I walked down the path made of stones, I stared at the princesses.
They are twins, because I don't think they have the same face and they are not.
The twin sitting next to her mother wore a beautiful blue dress, both girls had beautiful white skin and silky hair, but their appearances were different.
That same girl had fluffy strawberry blonde hair tied in a ponytail on the left side, her gentle smile matched her cerulean blue eyes.
Her sister was different, her dress was red and just like the other girl, her hair was tied in a ponytail, but on the left side, the color was orange blonde and her expression was a little bitter, which didn't match her beautiful emerald green eyes.
I approached and showed my greetings.
"It's a pleasure to be here."
I was quickly interrupted by the princess in the blue dress.
"Hey, come over here. Sit here with us."
"Guh, Alicia, have a little restraint. You're the crown princess now."
"Gosh, you're such a bore Lilie. We must treat our savior kindly."
I heeded her and went to sit next to her.
The princess in the dress introduced herself.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Hero. I am the first princess of this kingdom. Milialice Lux Britannia."
"And this is my stubborn younger sister. Lillialice Lux Britannia."
"You may call me Alicia and her Lilie."
"Ah! Don't talk on my account Alicia."
"Why do you behave like that? It's strange that you're so bitter."
"I'm not bitter. It's just that you're being too open with a man we don't know his name yet."
"Emm, I've been introduced before but I have no problem doing it again. I'm Razel, an adventurer."
"You see Lilie. We already know your name and profession, stop being bitter."
"Onee-chan, you're too trusting."
Although it hurt me to be treated as a suspect, which, yes I am, I was very focused on something more important.
(They're too big.)
There are too many golden-haired beauties in this place, but more than anything else, they are all very well endowed.
Whether it was my right or my left, they all had big breasts which were showing off their skin.
Apparently wearing dresses that highlight their attributes and having them partially uncovered is a normal thing for women.
It reminds me of home as I can enjoy this same view with my girlfriends.
Even the maid from before had great cleavage.
Thank you very much.
"By the way, Razel-kun."
The queen named me while I was deep in my dirty thoughts.
"Y-Yes. What can I do for you?"
"Don't be tense. This is an informal meeting, I called you for one purpose only."
"Thank you for saving my daughters' lives."
The queen hugged Alicia, it showed how much she loved them as she asked Lilie to go too.
She looked embarrassed, but still got up and went to receive her embrace.
The love of a mother and her daughters is so beautiful.
"That day I had to go to another border to solve a problem, then they informed me after a few days what happened."
"I immediately ran there to prepare for the worst. But then I saw them without a scratch."
"You can't imagine how much I cried to think that my little girls were in a better life."
"For that, I want to repay you. As queen, I can give you anything, you just name it and you'll have it in a few hours."
This was a great gift, but I don't need it.
"D-Don't worry. It's really nothing, I was just passing by since I didn't know the cities."
"Nonsense. My daughters' lives are more important than money."
"What do you want?"
"A vast territory?"
"Huge sums of gold coins?"
"I can even offer you to live here in the capital in one of the best homes, you will never pay taxes and I can give you a simple job, but with a salary worth 10 times what you earn."
(That doesn't sound bad. But I can't accept it.)
"I'm sorry Your Majesty, everything you say is a great offer, but I can't accept it."
"Huh?"
Iris spoke up in my defense.
"Your Majesty, Razel is a strange but simple man."
"Even in the house we're living in, he only eats simple things, his room is the smallest so the children sleep in the biggest and he even goes out to buy simple things for daily life."
"What I've been observing him, he's not interested in noble things."
Iris was right, but there was a problem with what she said.
(The reality is that I want to minimally leave my presence here. It's not that I don't want luxuries, we all want luxuries.)
The queen stared at me and then said.
"I will not give up on giving you a reward. But I would like you to tell us more about yourself to give me an idea of what I can give you."
"Please do! I would really like to hear your stories."
Said Princess Alicia.
I proceeded to tell them my scheduled lie.
"I am just a simple commoner who left his village with the desire to make a name for himself in the world."
"That's why I became an adventurer and plan to travel from city to city so that my name will be remembered."
That's the most generic background in the world, all adventurers say it, that's why no one would suspect me.
But there was someone who did suspect it.
"That's really weird."
"What is?"
Princess Lilie said staring at me.
"What you're saying is weird. For starters, what's the name of your village?"
"Huh?"
(Are you seriously asking that?)
Like a guardian angel, Princess Alicia defended me.
"Lilie, what kind of annoying questions are you asking Razel?"
"I'm not asking him annoying questions. I just want to know what village he grew up in, the weird thing is he didn't mention that."
"Since I'd like to know how he happened to hit on us."
"But he already said that."
"But I want him to tell it himself."
I broke out in a cold sweat.
(What's wrong with this princess?)
(She's too doubtful of me. I must lie quickly so she won't ask any more questions.)
"I-I grew up in a village far from the borders..."
"You could say we lived in exile and rarely got information from the cities."
"I wanted to become an adventurer because my father who founded our village was one."
"What is the name of the village?"
I broke out in a cold sweat and said the only name I could think of at the time.
"Bartlet."
"So you're Razel from Bartlet village, are you?"
"That's right."
(I'm severely screwing up.)
The sweat on my forehead was pouring down heavily.
Suddenly, without warning, Princess Lilie gave my hand a light pinch.
She was doing so from a position that neither her mother nor her sister could see.
"I guess one of these days, I'll be going on vacation and I'd like to stop by the borders."
"Then... maybe I'll ask you to take me to meet your home and say hello to your parents to thank them."
"...!"
"Don't think anything strange. I just want to thank them, though it wouldn't hurt to know what they like to prepare for that day, and also if you have brothers or sisters."
"Razel has siblings he said."
Iris poured more oil on the fire.
"Huh? You're the older brother, I see."
I looked at Princess Lilie who was embarrassedly touching her ponytail.
"That makes you a strong big brother, I must say your little siblings are lucky to have you."
Her face was very flushed, Princess Alicia walked over to her stepping over me.
I could see her breasts hanging in the air due to gravity not holding them up.
"Oh? What do I see?"
"Lilie-chan, could it be that you've fallen in love?"
"Gah!"
Lilie's eyes looked like a cat's.
"What nonsense are you talking!"
"But Lilie. I remember even that day, you were crying and thanking the mysterious person who saved us."
"After you knew a few minutes ago who it was, you locked yourself in your room and I could hear you screaming 'Kyah' in your bed."
"You're imagining things!"
"Then why are your face red as a tomato?"
"That's because of..."
Lilie didn't know what to answer.
So she simply got up from the table and ran away at full speed.
But not before shouting.
"You idiot Aliciaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
Watching her run away and almost leave a hole in the wall I thought.
(She's a real tsundere. This is what they call a tsundere.)
(I would kill to see Eli or Lily making those faces.)
The queen laughed as the maid waiting at the door went to bring Lilie in.
"Whew. Now that's funny."
"What's what mom?"
"Well, for starters. Almost all the women here were saved by him."
"That's true."
Iris replied smiling. Alicia instead took my hand and said.
"I'm really happy to be able to meet you."
"Lilie always acts like the older one since I was such a coward as a child. But that day was the biggest fear I could face."
"I thought something bad would happen to us, and then we saw you break down that door."
"Even though you didn't carry us like in the romance novels, you saved us from there and defeated all the invaders said knights."
"Now I've even heard much more amazing things about you. That makes me think this."
She brought my hand to her face.
Her cheek was so soft it reminded me of Lily's softness.
It was out of pure reflex, that my fingers briefly caressed her cheek.
Naturally, she noticed and smiled brightly.
"I realized, what can it be, no, surely I've found my destined person."
"Wait there Alicia!"
Lilie spoke from behind the pink-haired maid.
"What do you mean your destined man?"
"You just met him a few minutes ago."
"Ara, Lilie. Are you jealous?"
"Nya."
(That was a cat's whimper.)
I thought as my fetish heart lit up.
Lilie all red screamed.
"Not at all! It's just that you need to think about your position now that Karl was disinherited."
"You're the crown princess. It would be a big problem for everyone to have a commoner as your husband."
Alicia looked angrily at her sister.
"Lilie, your jealousy clouds your judgment. You're so jealous you can't see your contradictions."
"You're just trying to keep him for yourself."
After pointing to her younger sister, the queen clapped her hands once to end this conversation.
"Alright everyone, game over."
"Razel-kun, I already know what your gift will be."
"Really?"
Said everyone present.
The queen raised her arms and brought her fingers to lift her large breasts as if it was a prize.
"I'll give you these."
"Huhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
We all shouted the same thing.
The queen explained her wonderful but strange gift.
"After thinking about what your gift would be for saving my daughters' lives, I realized that you have no use for anything that is material."
"That's why I will give you something that surely a man can't refuse."
"Something like that is..."
I tried to deny it, but she stopped me.
"Don't try to deny it. Ever since I met you I could feel you looking at my cleavage."
"After you came to this place, your gaze wouldn't leave everyone's breasts."
"You should be a little less obvious about your needs."
"Ra-Razel!"
Iris stood up flushed as if angry.
She glared at me and said in a halting tone.
"So all this ti-time...you've been looking at my breasts and Liddy's, when were you talking to us?"
I looked away quickly because I did that.
She looked at me even more flushed and the queen giggled.
"It's all right Iris-chan. He's a man of simple tastes as you say."
"That's why Razel-kun I'll give him the best gift in the world."
"I'll give him the hand of one of my daughters."
"Excuse me!"
Shouted the girls upon hearing that news.
"As I said, I must give you a gift and I consider that the best gift is the hand of one of them, Alicia can't be since she is the heiress, then it would be Lilie who would take her place as the future wife."
Lilie in a very tsundere style, closed her eyes and puffed out her chest as she replied.
"Hmph. I reckon you should ask me first if I would agree to be the wife of a commoner, since it would ruin the image of the royal family."
And she activated the cute mode as she stopped putting her arms on her hips and hid them while looking at me with one eye open.
"But if that's mother's wish... its-I guess it can't be helped. It's not like I'm thrilled with that idea, don't get any funny ideas."
"Wait a minute mom!"
Alicia stood up very indignantly.
"Why are you jumping to that conclusion without consulting me?"
"Alicia, it's not like you have any other options considering your status."
"Is it about status? Very well."
"I give up my position of being the first princess and will be a mere princess with no right to the throne. Lilie will be the new heir."
"Hah?"
"Don't be too childish Alicia."
"Look in a mirror when you say childish, sister!"
The argument of both sisters escalated to a dangerous level, the queen tried to calm them down, but couldn't.
Iris on the other hand embarrassed was holding her hands to her face.
I took my cup of tea and after a light sip.
"The problem here is you so don't relax!"
They scared me when I remembered something like that happening at home.
Women's meetings involving me are always scary.
◇
Night came quickly.
The queen asked us to stay over.
We agreed and all through dinner, the girls were still fighting.
The bath was relaxing at least.
I was about to go to sleep when someone knocked on the door.
I went to see who it was, very cautious in case it was a murderer.
Opening it.
"Good night."
There was Iris standing with her hands behind her back.
She was looking to the side in embarrassment.
"C-can I come in for a moment?"
"Sure."
I let her in, since I didn't have a kitchen here, I couldn't make her some tea or offer her anything.
She sat down on a piece of furniture that looks like a sofa.
I sat down next to her and asked her.
"Is something wrong?"
She wouldn't look at me, perhaps still angry about this afternoon.
When she spoke, she spoke looking up at the ceiling.
"I want to ask you something."
"Go ahead."
"It's precisely about that."
"...?"
She finally looked up at me.
"I have so many things on my mind, so many, I don't know what to say."
"I never thought I'd need someone to solve my problems, I thought... I just had to play hard to get and deal with them."
"But now that all this has happened and with the huge possibility of the phantom troop coming for our lives. It makes me think, can I pull through?"
"Is it okay not to throw in the towel and just throw down?"
"What do you think?"
She looked at me expecting a serious answer to her question, I looked at her with a can't-believe-what-she's-saying face.
"For starters, I'm the worst person you can look to for advice, but if you need help, I'll give it to you."
"I told you, if you ask me for help after telling me the truth, I will give it to you."
"No matter what your problem is, no matter who your enemy is. I will give you my help and crush them all."
"Because that makes a friend."
She opened her eyes like saucers after hearing everything I said.
A tear rolled down her cheek and then she said.
"Thank you."
"Can I come talk to you again, even if it's just about mundane things?"
"Of course you can."
"Good night."
She got up and left the room.
◇◇◇
As she left the room, Iris raised her arms and stretched her body as if a great weight had been lifted off her shoulders.
She walked down the hallway until she hit a window where she admired the calm night of starry sky.
"I see."
She murmured.
"I've fallen in love with Razel."
"It's the first time in my life, where I actually liked talking to someone, as well as opening my heart with things I would never tell Liddy."
She kept walking and started to cry.
"Why should I fall in love when my days are numbered?"
But, still, she smiled through those tears.
"I'm just left to seize the time and enjoy my life before it goes out forever."
Iris smiled despite walking in a dark hallway that reflected her sad heart for falling in love when she has little time left to live.
◇◇◇
Razel lay down to bed after such a busy day.
He muttered to himself as he tossed and turned.
"I've been in this country for more than 15 days, soon the first month will be over and I haven't done anything to find the epidemic problem."
"I am also making unnecessary personal relationships. It will hurt when I have to say goodbye, but it will surely make them angry that I am from Arklight and they will want to take my head off."
"But something just as important as that is the fact that Iris's life is too similar to Eli's."
"A rough childhood, losing someone important, a broken engagement because of some idiot prince."
"This feels too much like an otome story with a heroine. But this isn't another otome game, let alone a sequel that never came out."
"I'm annoyed by the fact that she's been in very suspicious trouble. Maybe this world caught a bug and is trying to get Iris to take on the role of villainess?"
"Too many annoying things. Let's go to sleep."
Someone knocked on the door the moment he closed his eyes.
He approached the door grumpily and saw the same maid.
"What is it?"
"The queen requests your presence. Please change into something casual and accompany me."
She said before turning around and waiting for him.
Razel a little annoyed changed his clothes and accompanied the maid.
As they walked he asked her.
"What can the queen need from me at this time of night?"
The maid did not answer. She remained silent until they reached the queen's room.
But this room was away from other rooms.
It struck Razel as odd.
Before entering he muttered as he watched the maid leave.
"She is too similar to Cordelia, except for the lack of glasses."
He entered the room and looked around and found in an armchair leaning against the queen.
She wore a sensual negligee that covered the essentials, but emphasized her curves.
Her hair was loose and a full glass of wine in her hand.
Razel remembered Barbara for some reason.
He approached her and asked.
"Good evening, may I know what you need from me?"
The queen finished her drink and then closed the book she held in her free hand.
The book was small, but it was a collection of stories for adults.
The queen upon seeing it, took her long white legs off the couch and then playfully tapped the seat indicating to sit down.
Razel sat down nearby, she moved a little closer and said to him.
"I'm sorry to call you so late, but there's something I need to know."
"What is it?"
"First of all, your way of speaking to a noble or royal is very crude."
"I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about it. I'm just observing the differences between us, I'd say you have a lot to learn if you want to be here in the capital where nobles abound."
"I will take your advice wisely."
"There it is, talking about weird things again fufufu."
"I'm sorry."
"Never mind, you can be taught etiquette sometime. More importantly, is everything you say that happened real?"
"What thing?"
"From the beginning. That it was you who saved Iris-chan, defeated the hellbears that are a plague on our country, saved my daughters, and defeated those two organizations."
"Did you really do it alone?"
"Well... in some of them I got help from my partner who is a beast girl, but she doesn't have a good brain to understand complicated things like planning."
"I understand."
"By the way, how did you gain those muscles? Even our best knights can't have your physique."
"Emm, it was inherited from my father. He looks like a bear."
"Wow, I can't believe there was someone like that and we didn't recruit him as a soldier."
"My father, despite being adventurous, is a man who likes peace and quiet."
(That's partially a lie, my father loves tranquility, but he was never an adventurer).
"Your fighting style what is it?"
"I'm what you consider a martial artist, I'm not good with weapons, occasionally I use a sword, but I prefer to use my fists."
"So what do you think of my offer this afternoon?"
"You can have land, money, a house without paying taxes and my daughter's hand, isn't it a tempting offer to have all that and not even be a nobleman?"
(At home I have a duchy and the occasional princess waiting for me. Thank you.)
"I-I'm sorry, as I said. I must decline your offer, it is tempting but I do not wish to involve myself unnecessarily in the political affairs of this country."
"Oh? So you realized that I want to have you under the command of the palace."
"Huh?"
(Did she really want that?)
The queen brought her mouth close to Razel's ear and murmured.
"I'm not joking when I say I wish to have you under the command of the palace."
"I have not seen your abilities, but my daughters and Iris-chan do not lie."
"At the same time you made your enemy to Olston, which is something I didn't dare to do because I was afraid that he might do something to my daughters through some servant or knight in the palace."
"Thanks to you, the political problems are pointing in one direction only and with that I can prepare the sword to cut them down."
"Then I am bait."
With a cute smile she told him.
"Of course you are. But you're a bait that, according to you, you're strong and can't die easily, aren't you?"
"It's one thing for me to say so and quite another for you to say so."
"Oh? Your tone of voice was very hostile with me, we are getting into confidence if you can talk to the queen."
"As I said, I need you to please make yourself the target of Olston and the others, so I can deal in broad daylight with them."
(Olston seems to be linked to the phantom troop that spread the epidemic.)
(I suppose this might speed up the process of elimination faster.)
(I end up winning in the end even if they wish to use me.)
(But I won't let them have it so easy.)
Razel replied that he accepted the deal.
"You win, I will be your bait. But, I won't put it easy on you."
"I am selfish and since I will put my neck on the line, I will want things that only a selfish person will want."
She answered him without wavering on her word.
"What do you want as payment for helping us?"
Razel told her something that he felt should upset her.
"I would like to have a harem of beautiful large-breasted women, for example, having a beautiful mother and her daughters in the same bed is any man's dream."
"I wouldn't mind being a dog if I could have paradise in my bed every night."
But he didn't expect it to have the opposite effect.
"Fufufu, I knew it. At last you were seeing my breasts."
Queen Rosemary took Razel's hands and brought them straight to her ample breasts.
"...!"
Because Razel had not received female affection in a long time, he easily fell into the queen's clutches.
"I have had no contact with any man other than my late husband and that was when we had our daughters. But, if this old woman's body makes you happy, I will be pleased to ask my daughters if they would like to become your wives."
"Though the problem of Alicia being the heiress is a difficult one to solve."
The queen watched as Razel's eyes became bloodshot.
"You see, in this country it is normal for a woman to be born with a large bust, it is said to be the goddess's gift to women in cases where there is a crisis and men are absent. Therefore, a woman with a large bust should consider herself lucky to be blessed with an ample bosom to be able to feed children in case there is a lack of food."
"Though in your case it seems to work to attract like a wolf to a sheep fufufu."
She removed his hands from her bust and then brought them to her cheek.
"If you want, I can take this up a notch and you can touch them directly."
"For the sake of protecting my daughters and my country, I could give myself to someone, but not just any man."
"A man who's worth it and Iris-chan trusts you, so I'll put my body at your disposal."
"S-Seriously?"
Razel replied still upset by what had happened.
The queen signed her final clause with this.
"I want you to do me a favor. With that favor, I might consider not bringing up the subject of Alicia as heir and just tell you that you can take the others of us, I don't know if Iris-chan would want to join, but what do you say?"
Razel thought severely about what was going on.
(The queen of a foreign country is seducing me.)
(I can have a harem of big-breasted beauties abroad.)
(A mother-daughter combination, unlike Eli, may both princesses readily accept the fact that their mother is a couple with the same husband.)
(But that would make them angry at home and surely Eli would beat me up again and the others would cry.)
(But every action I do endangers my life and so I declared to have a harem, it is my reward for putting myself in danger.)
(It wouldn't hurt to have a house abroad either, the girls might enjoy the cultural differences. Besides, I can find out things related to Yukihime's country which should be close to here.)
Razel kept thinking of excuses to accept what he will say.
"S-Sure. Seems like a fair price to me."
The queen brought his finger to her mouth and in a seductive tone said.
"My request is... that you kill my current husband."
After hearing that, Razel understood that he walked into the famous honey trap, but from a black widow.
(It's true. She is a political figure, therefore, secret assassination is something that always goes hand in hand with rulers.)
But after thinking about it, along with the lack of blood because of his lower part, he didn't get enough oxygen to his brain.
Razel passed out instantly ending that day.
