Yagoo's POV

"My lord! I just got a message regarding the unusual monster horde from the castle walls." Gazing upfront, a soldier entered the room and saluted. I nodded back and motioned him to continue.

"Apparently, a Chimera Bufchin appeared among the horde, along with some various Ground Wyverns and Crawling Drakes. The monster horde also appeared to have an estimate of at least a thousand in numbers sir!" I creased my eyebrows in alarm. This isn't normal as most monster hordes that attacked the city usually only numbers in hundreds.

"Post a mission on the adventurers guild, we must stop this horde at all cost! As for the Chimera Bufchin, please call Ame- I mean Ms. Watson, we will need her help in this one." I ordered sternly and stood up from my seat.

"Uhm, sir. Permission to continue?" I was confused at that and looked at him hurriedly.

"The horde was already dealt with. While the Ground Wyverns and Crawling Drakes were wiped out as well. As for the Chimera Bufchin, it's been turned into a fine paste, sir!" I blinked in surprise and disbelief. I can hear some of my personal guards stiffen in surprise as well.

"Did Ms. Watson take action personally?" The soldier, for one second, hesitated, before shaking his head in a firm no.

'Eh? But I don't remember anyone other than Amelia, has enough capability to deal with Chimera Bufchin in my city, let alone kill it or make it into a fine paste. I know that Amelia can defeat it, but turning it into fine paste? Something is not right here." I thought to myself.

"Let's go to the walls and take a look, while we are at it, tell me more about the situation." I motioned to the soldier and my personal guards.

"Yes sir! The one who defeated the drakes and wyvern is an acquaintance of Ms. Watson, the same goes for the person who turned the Chimera into a fine paste. The person who defeated the wyverns and drakes while simultaneously weakening the horde was named, Usada Pekora." I shivered at that, just the name Usada already gave me an ominous premonition, and when the soldier said 'Pekora', I blanched in horror.

'What the hell is that crazy rabbit princess doing all the way out here?! I must evacuate the city! Anything related to the Pekoland Kingdom is trouble! But, maybe they just have the same name? Yes, that must be it!' I thought and sweated internally as I remember the feats of the Usada Family back then. Blowing up the Demon Lord's castle just because it looked unsightly, trolling the Atlanteans just because they heard of a rumor that they are allergic to shrimps, and even plucking the Phoenix feathers from the Takanashi Royalty for the sake of putting it on their collection! Every single emperor and empress of Pekoland is crazy in their own right!

"As for the person who turned the Chimera Bufchin into a fine paste..." The soldier clenched his fist for some reason and I got suspicious.

"What's wrong with that person?" I questioned and we started climbing the stairs towards the top of the walls.

"His name is Fumuyoshi Enma, apparently he is a magician, we just don't know what branch he specializes in. He is certainly strange because while they are approaching the wyverns and drakes, he actually dared to throw Pekora-san towards the middle of them all! The nerve of that bastard! That is not how you treat a lady!" I deadpanned at him at his ridiculous remark, I'm pretty sure my guards did so as well. I waved my hand and dismissed him as I caught sight of a familiar brown hat.
