Dammit! How did it come to this?!

Still... No matter...

As long as I have this beastkin, I can recover all of my losses—

Stop right there.

Terenezza was reincarnated from another world?

Y-Yes! She's the one behind every—

Minister Godwin.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Now...

May I kindly start punching you?

MAY I CLOBBER THIS ASSHOLE PRINCE?

W-Wait!

Surely there's something you want.

With my authority, I can get you anything you desire!

I see.

In that case, I request a shifty-eyed,

pointy-nosed,

well-padded punching bag.

That's what you want, is it?

Shifty-eyed, pointy-nosed, well-padded...

Wait, that's me!

Well observed,

my beloved punching bag.

Overclock.

In the realm I've created, time moves one hundred times slower.

Only I can move normally.

This is for the kingdom's subjects, whom you exploited!

This is for the slaves you've tormented!

This is for Nanaka, whose life you treated like a toy!

This is for me, whom you tried to kill!

And this...

is also for me, because I just want to punch your lights out!

Thank you for your service.

My brother will be angry with me again.

Overusing my blessing even caused the silver hair he called beautiful

to be stained black.

Brother?

Me. Disappointed?

That said, I wouldn't have believed it was a human fighting there.

Can you stand?

I cannot move a muscle.

Scarlet!

Lady Scarlet!

Are you safe?

Were you injured?

I appreciate your concern, but I'm fine.

Nanaka. I'm sorry I didn't come to save you.

Never mind me. I'm just glad you're safe.

Speaking of. Where's Godwin?

He went through that wall.

Die, Scarlet!

Honestly.

You never quite finish the job, do you?

Yes! I did it!

I failed to kill Scarlet, but now Julius is dead!

Damn you!

Your punches won't work against me!

I see.

G-Give that back!

That's the Holy Maiden's Pendant, which holds the power of Goddess Palmia!

I will give it back... with my fist.

Do you realize what it is that you've done?

To lose Prince Julius to a lowlife like you...

P-Please... spare me...

Apologize to Lord Julius in the next world.

Prince Julius. I have avenged you.

Watch over us from heaven in peace.

I'm not dead yet!

What are you doing, Your Highness?!

P-Prince Julius!

It's a good thing the healing magic worked!

I'm not dead just yet.

Disappointed?

No.

I'm glad to see you well.

He pulled through, huh?

Tough guy.

Scarlet.

Yes?

Did you get what you were after?

Yes.

I feel so much better.

I'm just glad you're well.

You may have broken every bone in my body, you know.

Surely you jest.

Your body is hardier than any material in this world.

Simply falling from a tree could not possibly do you harm.

I was propelled into that tree from another kingdom.

Surviving it used up all the blessing I had.

Speaking of, did you enjoy the toy you were after?

Yes. Far more than expected.

I can't wait for the day we meet again.

Extra! Extra!

Wicked Minister Godwin has been arrested!

Sounds like Lady Scarlet is at it again!

She kicked him off the roof of the building!

That's our Bloodstained Lady!

No, we must call her the Kingdom's Iron-Fisted Savior!

"The Flying Godwin Incident."

Lady Scarlet went the extra mile again.

There were so many reporters!

They all want to know Lady Scarlet's favorite books and the names of her pets!

Her pets...

An elegant white cat would be perfect for her!

No, a wise black dog, of course!

Rex. Shake.

There, there. Good boy.

Lady Scarlet.

Cervantes.

Regarding the item you asked me to develop...

I asked the traders to have them stocked in town.

However, I do not know if they will sell.

I'm sure they will. It seemed to be a big hit with Prince Julius, at least.

No doubt, ma'am.

I must add,

Nanaka has been watching you for some time, as if desiring your affections.

Oh.

Come here!

Woof!

Hey! Nanaka!

We'll be having guests soon! You need to be ready to meet them!

What am I after?

A happy ending, of course.

Who are you?

The prisoners here aren't allowed visitors.

By all means, go in!

I'll fall madly in love with a handsome prince,

overcome countless trials to be with him,

and become a princess beloved by all.

That's the happy ending I'll create!

Oh, you're here at last!

What do you ask of me?

If you'll let me out, I'll gladly serve Goddess Palmia—

Minister Godwin.

I am grateful that you suppressed Dianism to make Palmianism the state religion.

Y-Yes, of course! Of course I did!

Then, if you'll release me—

Receive the blessings of Goddess Palmia.

I suppose this is goodbye forever...

Minister Godwin.

Now, it's time to tear you down from your glorious stage...

Hateful villainess Scarlet El Vandimion.

Godwin is dead?

It appears he took poison.

Hard to believe a man so self-serving would kill himself.

Yes. The situation is quite suspicious.

And it's concerning that Terenezza, the woman in my sister's report, is unaccounted for.

Leo, I brought what you asked for.

Thank you.

The one who incited Godwin, Terenezza...

Just who is this girl?

Palmianism...

Some troublesome people are getting involved.

Palmianism?

One of the religions in Pallistan.

Specifically, there are two major religious organizations in the kingdom.

One has been gaining believers among people in power in recent years.

Palmianism—it's even been made the official state religion.

It worships Palmia, goddess of beauty and love.

A religion led by a nouveau riche merchant that lacks any hint of gravity.

I can see how it'd have ties to Godwin.

It smells like the kind of thing corrupt nobles would be all over.

There's one more religion.

It's existed since the kingdom's founding—

Dianism, which venerates Saint Diana, a girl with the power of exorcism.

It's not the state religion,

but if you asked which was more deserving of being the title,

most people would say Dianism.

Though not all of them are welcoming of Dianism either.

That reminds me, Lord Leonardo.

With the Dianism ceremony coming up soon...

I'm counting on you.

I'm sure this year's holy land pilgrimage will be anything but simple.

It may put a severe burden on Scarlet as well.

Leo. How is Scarlet doing?

She's feeling much better.

Yesterday, she said she was going to hunt food for her dragon herself.

She is a truly interesting woman.

With Scarlet by my side, I'm sure I would never get bored.

Maybe I'll really ask for her hand.

Don't be absurd.

You already took your vows with her, didn't you?

You've sworn your lives to each other!

Wait, is that true?!

It's top secret, of course.

I'm sure an official announcement will come soon.

When it does—

I can't wait to see his face when he figures it out.

Now, perhaps I'll go see my beloved.

SEVERAL DAYS LATER

That's enough of an outing. Let's return home.

Our visitors will be arriving soon.

It's such a pleasure to see you,

Lady Rosalia Rei Madeleine, Lady Envi Mel Champagne.

Wait. What's that?

A dragon? What's it doing here?!

Ah, that's simply—

We have to stop it!

Oh?

And so you mistook Rex for an enemy, did you?

Of course we did! Dragons are mounts used by a hostile kingdom.

It was kill or be killed!

Gotta seize the initiative.

I'm glad to see they haven't changed.

It's been some time since we were all together like this.

How have you been?

In the month you've been away,

I've held absolute power over the academy dorm!

It's been truly wonderful.

Liar.

You were bored without your rival there.

Rosa!

Yesterday, you bought up all the healing potions around town...

Say another word and I'll seal your mouth with ice magic!

You are my roommate, Lady Scarlet.

I had hoped you would recover quickly and return to tidy up the dorm.

Sometimes she cries. "It's almost graduation! I miss her!"

I-I've never cried!

I wish to graduate promptly and marry a fine gentleman!

No need to hurry!

The rumors say you've had many suitors already.

Oh, not at all! None of them are serious.

It's got to be the kind of person who would risk his life for you!

You're such a romantic, Lady Envi!

I-It's just hypothetical!

Don't you have any interest in marriage, Scarlet?

Ah... Me?

Scarlet.

I'm still entertaining.

I'll come to play with you later.

I didn't come to play.

You've got a visitor.

I came to check in on your recovery, but...

That voice...

Prince Julius?!

A pleasure to see you, Envi, Rosalia.

I-It is truly a pleasure to see you, Your Highness!

A-A pleasure!

I hope I'm not imposing.

As a matter of fact, I was having tea with my friends—

N-No, not at all!

What an honor it is to see you when school isn't in session!

Might I borrow Scarlet for a moment?

Pardon?

There is something I wish to discuss privately.

Go on! Go on!

Borrow her as long as you like!

Envi?

Rosa?!

I shall return her to you soon.

You absolute traitors.

Have you heard? Godwin died while in custody.

Yes.

I investigated Terenezza in accordance with your report...

But Kyle knew nothing about her.

I have no other leads, and her current whereabouts remain unknown.

I see.

He's right. We couldn't have discussed this in front of Envi and Rosa.

Were you hoping I'd want to say something else?

I cannot imagine anything.

Is there something else you wish to say?

Your hair hasn't yet gone back to normal?

No.

I've considered a visit to the hot spring soon.

The waters are said to ease physical and mental harm caused by blessings.

A fine idea.

You are indispensable to the future of this kingdom.

I would not want to lose you over something so trivial.

I could say the same to you, of course.

Beg pardon?

I must ask that you never do anything so foolish again.

Risking your life to save me...

Naturally, I am happy to be considered important by the royal family...

I realize that the blessing of the God of Time, Chronoa, is important,

but if anything should happen to our next king—

Scarlet.

May I pick the roses here?

Yes, I don't mind.

Do you remember when we went shopping in the merchants' district of Granhilde?

I'm told that long ago, my parents would disguise themselves as commoners

to enjoy time together there as well.

That is a surprise.

They have such an austere air about them.

They only look serious on the outside.

My father showered my mother with gifts and marriage proposals,

as many times as there were stars in the sky.

She found it exhausting until he gave her a particular gift.

Not a shining crown of gold and jewels,

but one made by my father, the heir to the throne, with his own hands...

And with all of his love.

Scarlet.

I need you.

When you are by my side, the whole world sparkles in dazzling color.

A world where everything once seemed gray and boring...

You have given it color with a veil of fresh blood.

And...

you have stolen my heart.

Will you remain with me always?

My most beloved...

toy.

What's wrong? You've gone pale.

May I ask a question?

Was "love" the feeling you put into this rose crown?

Of course it was.

Love for my exceptionally amusing toy.

You weren't thinking I saw you as an object of romantic love, were you?

Ah, forgive me.

You are, of course, a woman of a certain age.

I'm so used to seeing you punch people through walls

and beat prime ministers half to death,

I nearly forgot you were human.

Yes, I see now.

If that's the kind of relationship you seek—

Prince Julius.

Along with my question...

May I ask you for one thing?

May I clobber this asshole prince before me?

It's time.

Saint Diana.

Yes.

I'll get to see you soon...

Big Sister.

MAY I SEND THIS PIG FLYING INTO THE SKY?
