The Forbidden Magic Laws of a Fallen Princess
Chapter Summary
Because Louise was wearing heavy, short plate armor, she was indeed not as fast as Lilith, who was only wearing a maid outfit. However, their eyes also showed a hint of panic, perhaps because the fact that I had single-handedly annihilated the Demon King's army was too terrifying, causing them, who had followed me for so many years, to be somewhat shocked. Even I, fighting alone against so many demon kings, would have a hard time escaping unscathed, yet you annihilated them all without a scratch...
Lilith was the first to run over, asking with great concern.
Because Louise was wearing heavy, short plate armor, she was indeed not as fast as Lilith, who was only wearing a maid outfit.
However, their eyes also showed a hint of panic, perhaps because the fact that I had single-handedly annihilated the Demon King's army was too terrifying, causing them, who had followed me for so many years, to be somewhat shocked.
Even Louise, a veteran of many battles, was unable to participate in the fight—no, she had no chance to participate at all.
It would be unbelievable to anyone who saw it.
"No, these guys are too weak...
they didn't hurt me at all...
"Gradually, a feeling of exhaustion spread throughout my body.
Yes, I single-handedly wiped out an entire squad of Demon King's soldiers in such a short time without any rest.
Furthermore, the fireballs were not only launched without much interval, but were even fired in quick succession, so it was only natural that the magic power couldn't keep up.
Soon, my consciousness was taken away by drowsiness, and I fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up again, the ceiling above me was still that of the carriage, and it was already evening outside.
"Your Highness, are you alright?
"As she spoke, Lilith suddenly rushed over and hugged me tightly with tears in her eyes.
"Um……"Just then, Louise's gaze towards me did seem somewhat different from before.
“Just say what you have to say, Louise.
”Indeed, I am only a twelve-year-old child.
For a child around twelve years old, if they were considered a normal noble child, being able to unleash the second stage of the Fireball spell (first stage: Condensation, second stage: Aimed Release, third stage: Expanded Release, final stage: Explosion) would already be considered genius.
However, I can not only unleash powerful fireballs, but also achieve explosive effects in the final stage, and I can also fire three in a row.
"Your Highness, may I ask what level your strength has reached?
"Louise's eyes were sharp, because she was not only a great general, but also very capable of selecting people to join the army.
So she had already seen that I could not possibly only use low-level magic.
"Uh...
what are you saying...
Louise?
"I waved my hand dismissively, trying to get away with it.
"Your fireball spell is incredibly powerful...
Even I, fighting alone against so many demon kings, would have a hard time escaping unscathed, yet you annihilated them all without a scratch...
""Auntie means that this is completely unlike something a child who has never been to a battlefield could do, right?
"At this moment, I also had to seriously ask her a question.
"Hmm...
that's right.
Judging from your current magic power, you should have no problem passing the level three magic exam.
"Sure enough, as long as I become assertive, Louise will naturally become weaker.
This is actually the difference between royalty and an ordinary nobleman.
"Well, since you're so eager to know my strength, Louise, then I'll tell you.
""Uh-huh!
"Louise's expression instantly lit up with anticipation.
But I'm sorry...
Louise, I still have to lie to you...
because I can't tell you that I know high-level magic...
"Now, I can basically cast intermediate-level spells skillfully.
""As expected, Your Highness, you weren't using your full strength at all!
You are truly amazing.
To be able to learn intermediate-level magic all by yourself, if you were to get to the academy...
""I will keep a low profile.
""Eh?
"Louise was completely bewildered when I suddenly took her words.
"Because I don't want to be the center of attention too much.
"If you really become the center of attention, then you'll be busy from now on.
Therefore, my principle is to strive for second place if I can, and third place if I can, without striving for first.
This way, I won't stand out too much, but I can still prove that I have a certain level of ability, which is quite perfect.
My main goal this time is to meet some more super cute girls at the academy, create a new harem, and then happily spend every day of my school life.
It's that simple!
As I thought about it, the corners of my mouth involuntarily turned up slightly, and my smile became increasingly wicked.
Chapter Four: Reality is reality after all...
Less than satisfactoryEven traveling at the fastest and most direct route, it still took three days and two nights to reach Allen City.
It wasn't until the morning of the third day that a corner of that enormous city-state could be seen.
Kloster City is located in the northernmost part of the Kingdom of Allen, while Allen City is located in the very center of the map.
The main feature is that there are many mountain roads, and the howls of wild beasts can often be heard in the surrounding area.
Fortunately, I have a cute little white dog by my side that can drive away wild animals.
Even when surrounded by a group of fierce wild beasts, they were all terrified and fled in panic as soon as they saw Xiaobai appear.
Could it be that Xiaobai is really the child of the Wolf God...?
Otherwise, the way all the wild beasts behave after encountering Xiaobai is truly unusual.
However, now that Xiaobai belongs to me, even if the legendary wolf god finds her, I will never easily give her up.
Furthermore, with my current strength, wanting to fight the legendary Four Gods is simply a pipe dream.
It felt like I might be reduced to ashes before I even had a chance to go up and say a word.
Therefore, while building a harem is very important during this academy training, it is also crucial to quickly increase one's strength and learn more forbidden magic laws to defeat the Black Dragon God in one fell swoop and avenge Otto, Belissa, and my beloved homeland.
That being said, if the Black Dragon God is defeated, wouldn't the position of the head of the Four Gods be vacant?
So who will take this position...?
Well, I feel like I'm thinking too much.
I should think about how to become stronger first.
However, I did my homework properly.
Even a fallen princess can't be without a home of her own.
A long time ago, I asked Otto to contact a nobleman in the royal city of Allen and arrange for him to reserve a house on the outskirts of the city.
Otto also paid a ten-year deposit and had someone deliver it to me.
The exquisitely crafted key to the house was already in my pocket.
However, when I arrived at our new home full of anticipation, I was instantly disappointed.
"What the hell is this?!
"I couldn't help but roar to the sky.
Indeed, this house is quite nice and large, but...
but it's so dilapidated.
The once magnificent iron gate was now covered in rust, likely from years of exposure to wind, sun, and rain.
The entire house was encircled by countless thick layers of vines, and the walls of the surrounding houses were already covered with lush green moss.
The house looks like it hasn't been lived in for nearly a hundred years, and no one has cleaned or maintained it at all.
Otherwise, how could there be so many things?
"Oh dear, what are we going to do now...
"Seeing this, my initially cheerful mood instantly plummeted.
Staying in a hotel would have been much more comfortable.
"It's alright, Your Highness.
I'll take care of the cleaning.
You can go and explore the royal city first.
When you return, Your Highness will see a brand new home.
"At this moment, Lilith quickly patted my shoulder, as if to comfort me.
"But this is too much for you, with such a big house.
""Little White can help too...
"Xiao Bai, who had already woken up, saw my rather dejected look and quickly comforted me.
"Oh, really?
"Seeing how sensible Xiaobai is, I felt like a mother seeing her child grow up, and tears welled up in my eyes.
"Yes, Xiaobai will try her best, Your Highness.
"Little White immediately flashed a bright smile, revealing its two tiny white wolf fangs.
This is...
so cute!
As I spoke, I scooped Xiaobai into my arms.
"Then, Xiaobai, you stay home and listen to Lilith's instructions.
I'm going out for a bit and will be back in the evening.
""Yeah, I got it.
"Sigh, if this house weren't uninhabitable right now, I could postpone cleaning it for a few more days.
"Louise, I'll leave it to you, your bodyguard, to accompany me.
""Okay, Your Highness Princess.
"Upon hearing this, Lilith bowed and gave me a very respectful greeting.
Immediately afterward, with business to attend to, I climbed back onto the carriage, dragged out the three large packages from inside, and then turned over a huge burlap sack before stuffing it back into the carriage.
However, this sack is really too heavy, it must weigh at least thirty or forty pounds.
In short, this weight is undoubtedly more than half of my body weight.
"Oh, Your Highness, what brings you here?
"
