79 Volume 2 Chapter 35: The Mystery in My Heart

(Derisha Teigitan)

'Damn it' I thought, frustration and anger began to seep in.

'That idiot actually managed to escape.'

I should have caught him immediately when that huge water golem was defeated, but he managed to use a teleportation tool in front of me and escape.

"Don't think it's over yet, I will not let this insult go."

Go to hell, you stupid brat who just turned fifteen and never grows up!

I've never seen the water golem he summoned, but I once heard from one of my royal tutor that there was a powerful ancient civilization built on water similar to the Taigetitan, near this area , which created a Golem that can grow by absorbing water

To prevent the water golem from going out of control, this weapon was equipped with a function that would make it automatically shut down after ten hours. But... from the story, It didn't take ten hours.

In just three hours, the entire ancient civilization was buried under the water.

And this weapon was also submerged in the depths of the water labyrinth, laying dormant, only becoming a story in history books from then on.

Whether this weapon is the one that appeared in history or a different one, I don't know, but it's probably the only possibility.

Its ability to absorb water and rapidly grow and recover from damage is not something that a Golem should have.

Either way, why is it appearing here now?

Did someone create a new one? Or was the weapon salvaged from the depth?

How is that possible? The depth of the water labyrinth is not ordinary! And the legend of that weapon is just that, a legend, and it's even uncertain whether the ancient civilizations that it destroyed ever existed... Looking at it now, it's necessary to investigate the legend behind this even further, just in case..

This also involves another issue.

Who gave that idiot those items?

The tool to summon the Water Golem, the tool to destroy the Autumn Festival Talisman, and the teleportation tool?

His actions were incredibly stupid, but one person couldn't have caused an event like this.

Someone was using his stupidity behind the scenes, that's for sure.

The Rex family has already been dealt with, but all of their servants have mysteriously disappeared.

The whole incident behind all of this is too bizarre.

"Second Princess, do you want to return to the palace?" the bald man in a suit said.

Damn it, I forgot this butler's name again.

"No need, Baldy. Just convey some message to Father." I said.

"Yo old man, this is Risha, the Second Princess, I need to go make money again since I just broke the new Spear of Fangs I bought again, so i won't be going back."

I only have one spare of this spear left, so let's temporarily seal off the magic combat skills in the spear. I'm afraid if I use the magic skill too much, the spear would break.

"Your Highness the Second Princess, if it's merely a lack of weapons, you can deal with this matter with His Majesty the King."

"Hmm? This is my own problem. I don't want to use the money from the country. Those are hard-earned money from the people, they should be used to make their life better."

My father managed the country really well, so using a little of the country's property to make a bunch of spear for her was not a problem, no citizens would see the problem or make fuss about it, However, i had done no contribution to the people and had no right to use the property they had earned through their hard work.

"Sometimes, I really feel that the Second Princess's caring attitude towards the people is really suitable for becoming a queen." Hearing my words, the bald head did not continue to object and said such words with a smile.

"I refuse, I'm too brash to handle formal matter, I'm also not smart enough to manage the kingdom affair like my father, I'm afraid I would make the kingdom fall to ruins instead."

With these words, I said goodbye to the bald head and arrived at the square.

After the "Opening Festival" ends, I'll go to the Adventurer's Guild to take on some quests to make some money. I need to replace the damaged spear as soon as possible, as I only have two silver coins left in my possession now.

...I often find myself in this kind of situation. It would be great if I could have a weapon that won't break. But that should be very expensive. Even if I end up actually borrowing money from the kingdom using my right as the second princess, I'll have to pay it back as soon as possible.

With the rewards from completing S-ranked quests, I can earn a thousand gold coins in just a couple of missions, i would be able to get another spear in no time, but weapons also wear out quickly.

There are a lot of people on the square, so I climbed up a nearby tree to get a better view.

Right now, the square is filled with a jubilant crowd. Melon and her two companions are lighting the sacred fire together on the sacred fire platform.

Speaking of which, she's really amazing. I used to think that Melon was the only one who was so powerful. But I didn't expect her to have companions who are equally strong.

During the battle with the Ground Dragon, why did she act alone without her companions? I didn't see her companions at that time.

Apart from Melon's devastating bare-handed attacks, there was also an archer who was good enough to accurately shoot down all the tentacles, providing high firepower support for Melan.

These people are already so powerful even though they're still students.

Despite the attack of the ancient weapons, there were no casualties among the people, only some destruction of public property.

They are also able to defeat ancient weapons and such, they're all great heroes. If possible, I'd like to join the crowd and shake their hands.

But it's better not to do that now, as the crowd below is celebrating.

The festival is being held as planned, but this year, it's not just the Autumn Harvest Festival, it's also the Heroes' Festival.

Looking at the three people on stage, I know very well that one person is missing.

There was someone wearing a mask in the city back then, swinging on spider web to rescue endangered people.

When all the spies sent by the Bratia Kingdom were eliminated overnight, whoever wearing that mask is also participating in the battle, since one of the crime scene was filled with spider web.

Yes, all these witnesses were related to the [Dog House] restaurant, even Melon was connected to it.

Wait a minute.

One of those heroes, the archer, isn't she the one who lit the holy flame on stage now?

Did all these heroes are connected to [Dog House]?

Hmmm…. Seems like it.

If it's like this, then the other person is probably also related to the [Dog House], It feels like it could be interesting, so let's go investigate.
