Chapter 271 : Strange Family Relations
Two hours ago, at the royal palace of the Bright Ember Kingdom.
...
These past few days, Sethilu had been somewhat overwhelmed.
Because she not only had to handle national affairs like post-war reconstruction of the Bright Ember Kingdom, but the internal unity of the Colotia royal family was also facing tremendous challenges.
After all...
"Sister Sethilu, let's play together."
"Wait, wait a moment, Candel. I need to prepare the ritual now... Can we play after I finish my work? I promise I'll definitely come keep you company."
Facing the red-haired little loli before her, Sethilu said somewhat apologetically.
The internal problems of the royal family were like this...
The reason Candel had launched the invasion was essentially hoping to unite with family and create a relationship that transcended ordinary people.
In this relationship, there would be no scheming, no survival of the fittest, no plundering or harm—only the tranquil comfort that comes from family... And this was exactly what Elucia had promised.
So after the war ended, Candel was sent to Sethilu's side to live together with her as a personal attendant.
However, facing this "sudden" sister, Sethilu was somewhat at a loss... Although she tried to teach Candel human etiquette, this little loli just couldn't learn it.
...
"No way, no way. What's fun about preparing rituals? How could that be more interesting than hugging and rolling around in bed together?"
Since being defeated by Elucia, Candel no longer engaged in any meaningless pretense. Right now she was like a playful little girl, constantly shaking Sethilu's arm.
"Candel, we can't just play all the time. Life only has meaning when we work."
"But didn't I already surrender? Haven't I already helped Princess Sethilu ease most of her workload?"
"Ah..."
"Can't the time we saved be used to play with me?"
Faced with Candel saying this, Sethilu suddenly didn't know how to respond.
Because this loli was right—if not for Candel's surrender, the current western demon war couldn't have ended so quickly. Just clearing out the remaining demon forces would have been enough trouble for the Bright Ember Kingdom.
But...
Work was never finished.
Especially for someone with Sethilu's status as a princess—no matter what, there was always endless work before her... Resting at night was fine, but resting during work days made Sethilu feel she was letting down the people.
"Candel, it really won't work. Because I've already made Lonis and the others wait many days. I must finish quickly."
"Hmph, Sister Sethilu is bullying me."
Hearing Sethilu say this, Candel immediately frowned: "Then I'm going to play with Sister Lingli now."
"Eh?"
"Sister Lingli is different from all of us. Although she's also very pretty, she has some strange thing extra down below. It looks very fun."
"N-no way!"
Upon hearing this, Princess Sethilu became completely flustered.
This wasn't only because Lingli had just recovered from serious illness and had no energy to mess around with Candel... but also because siblings couldn't do such things!
"Candel, that won't work. You can't go play with Lingli like that, such things..."
"Why not? Sister Sethilu can do it! You've already rolled around in bed together."
"Eh?"
"I want to play too, I want to play too!"
Just as Candel was pressuring Sethilu like a little fierce beast...
There came a knock at the door.
"Knock knock knock, Princess Sethilu, are you there? The stupid hero and I have arrived."
"Ah, it's Elucia, I'm coming right over!"
Elucia's arrival was like a lifeline, letting Sethilu breathe a sigh of relief.
And Candel looked like she had seen a ghost, her body fearfully taking a step back.
"Miss Elucia, no... don't!"
"Hmph, don't? Candel, it seems that since I haven't disciplined you these past few days, you've forgotten your place."
Elucia pushed the door open and entered, looking at the little loli with ill intent.
"I'm sorry, Master! I'm sorry, I didn't mean..."
"Hmph hmph, seeing as I'm in a good mood today, you don't have to kneel. Instead, make Lonis kneel down."
"What does this have to do with me!"
Lonis complained as she walked into the room together with Elucia.
Sethilu's study should normally be very tidy, but now it had been messed up by Candel, without even any place to step.
"Princess Sethilu, um..."
"Ah, I'll go prepare the ritual right away! I've already had Nalonaté and the others prepare the materials. This time there definitely won't be any problems."
Sethilu seemed somewhat flustered, as her progress had been delayed due to Candel's matters.
However...
"It's fine, Princess Sethilu. I came early specifically to help you."
"Eh?"
"It's about carving the teleportation magic circle, right? I also know a thing or two about this. Let me help you complete the remaining work... Then you can also play with your sister for a while."
Lonis loved looking at beautiful girls the most!
Especially girls like her wife who were beautiful, gentle, a bit mischievous, but also pure and kind~~
And now, there weren't just one such girl, but two!
Whether Elucia or Sethilu, both wore beautiful princess outfits, carving complex magic circles on the back garden floor~~
Their brilliant silver hair reflected the sparkling sunlight, like pure and flawless wings—simply beautiful~~
Occasionally the two girls would kneel down to write magic patterns... Although their panties wouldn't be exposed, their white absolute territory was completely visible~
(Princess Sethilu is so cute, mm, Elucia is also so cute!)
Looking at the two beautiful girls, Lonis secretly smiled.
Actually, at first glance, Elucia seemed much more fierce than Princess Sethilu—even while carving the magic circle, her brow was still slightly raised, as if somewhat dissatisfied with a certain useless maid.
But in reality?
From yesterday's dream, Lonis could already confirm that Elucia was simply adorably soft and cute, truly the most adorable girl in this world~~
And although Princess Sethilu was also very gentle, Lonis vaguely sensed a hint of "danger."
She couldn't say where this danger came from, but considering her male instincts, it seemed that in some sense, Princess Sethilu was much more dangerous than Elucia.
...
For boys, admiring girls was simply an excellent enjoyment.
However, Lonis hadn't expected...
...
"Sister Lingli, it's this guy, this guy who wants to steal your sister's lover!"
"Eh?"
"Candel, stop right now!"
Lonis turned around to see Candel pushing a wheelchair, running straight toward her.
And sitting in the wheelchair?
Was an incredibly cold and noble beautiful girl. She wore gorgeous blue witch clothing, her flowing blue hair drifting in the breeze, seeming to sparkle with countless ice crystals.
But her expression was very flustered. Facing Lonis, she said at a loss:
"S-sorry! Um, ah... Miss Lonis, hello! Thank you very much... I am Witch Lingli, and also... Princess Sethilu's older brother..."
