Chapter 14: Pecorine's Rage and the Return

-No One's P.O.V-

Pecorine: In the name of Eustiana von Astraea, I will protect everyone from you! And...I will reclaim my kingdom!

...

Eriko: So she's a Princess, is she?

Mitsuki: Eriko! It's time.

Nanaka: Alrighty then! Time to wrap this up with a big bang!

...

Karyl: Pecorine...

Pecorine: I'm coming to save you. It's time for the princess to be the heroic one.

Pecorine was about to take another step, but Karyl was dragged back to Mana.

Mana then starts getting touchy on Karyl's left waist and her right arm.

Karyl: Y-Your Majesty?

Mana: Is this what you wanted to do?

Karyl: No...Not this...

Karyl cries and Pecorine was angered by the act.

Mana: Ah, my sweet, foolish Karyl...Perhaps I'll just break you right here and now.

Pecorine then charges forward until she sees Shadows appearing in her way as she slices them down in her way to get to Karyl.

As Pecorine was about to reach through, a fire blast interrupts her as Pecorine blocks it with her sword before deflecting it away.

Mana: I have the perfect opponent for you, Princess. The protector of this kingdom...The captain of Nightmare, the palace knights.

In front of Pecorine was a controlled Jun by Mana Senri.

Mana: However, before the fight begins...since you asked where your heroic boyfriend is. Let me show you...

Everyone was surprised to hear that as Mana pulls out something from her back on what seemed to be a folded black cloth.

Mana: Here. Catch.

Mana then throws the folded black cloth towards Pecorine. Pecorine sees and grabs it. The young princess was about to unfold it until she felt uneasy to unfold it.

Pecorine: (Why do I feel so uneasy about this?)

Pecorine thought to herself as she unfolds the black cloth and to her shock.

It was a ruined black cape with an "S" on the center that belonged to (Y/N) Kent. Pecorine felt her heart almost drop upon seeing the cape.

Pecorine: No...

Mana: Well? Do you realize what's happened to him~?

Pecorine couldn't accept it as she grits her teeth in anger.

Pecorine: No! I refuse to believe that he's dead! (Y/N) isn't dead!!

Pecorine yells in anger and everyone around in Landosol were muttering to each other.

Mana: Oh? If the cape isn't much proof to affect you, then what about this?

Mana snaps her fingers as the holographic screens turned into a battle scene where you fought all of your might until your death.

-With the Twilight Caravan-

Nanaka: Nanaka Infinite Blast!

Nanaka fires out a huge energy beam toward the Shadows and they all evaporated easily.

Nanaka: Yikes, the castle's full of Shadows.

Mitsuki: Was this part of the plan, as well?

Mitsuki questions the consciousness of Metamorregnant who is in her butterfly form before turning back to her human form.
