Prologue

"Don't move, or her highness gets it!"

A black-robed cultist presses a dangerously sharp knife close to the pale neck of a golden-haired blue-eyed princess in a cute blue dress with a small diamond tiara to match.

Several Royal Guards in shiny silver armour with gold accents surround the two with their swords drawn inside the capital in the town square.

"Oh no! The princess in trouble!"

"What do we do!"

"This is terrible!"

These negative remarks grew in number as a crowd began to gather, watching the evil cultist holding their beloved kingdom's princess hostage.

"Alright, criminal scumbag! Release the princess and hand yourself over to the Royal Guards! We will at least guarantee your life!"

The captain of the Royal Guards stepped forward, his long wavy hair and crimson cape flowing majestically in the wind, paired with his muscular build and dashing face, as well as the sun shining on him, made many women present swoon.

"Silence! I don't care about my life! As long as I watch you guys burn down with-"

*BANG!*

*BANG!*

"Urk!"

The cultist fell over, dropping his knife and letting go of the princess. Who lifted the hem of her dress and quickly ran to where the guards were.

Everyone was stupefied at the sight of the sobbing cultist lying on the ground clutching his bleeding hand and leg.

The look of the captain of the Royal Guards' mouth hanging wide open and his eyes nearly bulging out was incredibly hilarious to see if anyone was paying attention to his face. Which there was.

When the princess managed to make it to the guards, she leapt into the air and into the arms of the man who shot the cultist.

"Spy-sama! Catch me!"

With her little shout, everyone's attention got drawn to the back of a crowd where a young black-haired man in a bespoke grey suit had a pistol with the barrel smoking in his gloved hands.

The person, "Spy-sama," side-stepped the flying princess (who faceplanted on the ground) and looked at the crowd and Royal Guards with an annoyed look.

"Oi oi oi! What the hell are you guys standing around!?! Apprehend the criminal at once! Look, he's getting away!"

Everyone turned their attention to the bleeding cultist crawling on all fours, trying to escape while leaving a bloody trail from his wounds.

"Yessir!"

The Royal Guards quickly cuffed the crawling terrorist and took him to the nearest prison to be interrogated.

"Hooray! The princess has been saved!"

"Yay!"

"All hail Spy-sama!"

The crowd cheered for their hero and his quick actions in saving the princess.

While the crowd was cheering, the captain of the Royal Guard walked up to "Spy-sama" to thank him personally.

"Thank you for the hard work today, Spy-dono! Without you, I shudder to imagine what would have happened to Ojou-sama!"

"If there is anything the kingdom can do to repay you for saving Ojou-sama, please let me know at once!"

Hearing these words, the young man in a suit gave an unsettlingly wide grin and aura that temporarily made the captain think he was seeing the Devil incarnate.

"Anything?"

The captain gulped and replied,

"Anything!"

"Spy-sama's" grin seemed to grow wider, if possible and gave his request.

"I would like to request long-term funding for the Intelligence Agency that I plan on establishing and authority equivalent to the Prime Minister, The Royal Guard or Head of Military as well as the ability to act independently from the Royal Court to avert crises such as the one that occurred today."

At the mention of this request, the captain became a little pale-faced.

"Well, I did say anything and granting you the authority equivalent to a Prime Minister and giving you the right to act independently from the Royal Court can be done without an issue. The problem is the funding..."

When the captain got to the part about funding, he began to sweat bullets.

"You see, there will be a lot of paperwork, rearrangement of budget for different departments and changes made taxes. Plus, your request will have to go through the Royal Court, which will be looked over for a couple of weeks at best, and the final decision goes to the Royal Family."

The moment the captain mentioned the Royal Family, the princess who lay faceplanted on the ground moments ago suddenly appeared next to the captain, standing dignified with a bleeding nose and proclaimed,

"I, Princess Elisia of the Royal Family of Aldonia grant Mr. Spy funding, independent action and authority equivalent to the Prime Minister for his Intelligence Agency."

"Ojou-sama! Please reconsider this!"

"No."

"Please! The costs will be massive to create a new department!"

Hearing her answer, the captain fell to the ground in an orz and silently wept.

Having finished her conversation with the captain. Elisia turned to "Spy-sama" and gave a sh*t-eating grin.

"With this favour, I hope you serve the kingdom well and repay me some time with dinner this week. Mmm, kay?"

"Oh, and escorting me on my next outing as well!"

"Spy-sama" remained unfazed by the Princess' flirting attitude.

"I humbly thank your highness for your generosity. I will be sure to repay you with the results of my new Intelligence Agency."

Elisia pouted at his response.

"Hmm! You're always so stiff with your response."

"Anyways, please escort me back to the Royal castle. I feel so much safer having a gentleman of your skill protecting me!"

Saying this, she attempted to hook her arm around "Spy-sama's" and press her chest against his arm but touched nothing but empty air.

Looking around, Elisia saw "Spy-sama" a few feet away from her walking in the direction of the Royal castle.

"Hey wait up!"

While Princess Elisia was busy trying to catch up to "Spy-sama." "Spy-sama" was busy hatching up plans for his not-yet-established Intelligence Agency.

(Heh heh heh, with my agency, I'll gather researchers and magic experts and finally find a way back into my world! Soon, this world will bow down to the organization and with these resources, world domination could finally be achieved!)

"Spy-sama" continued walking towards the Royal castle with the panting Princess trying to catch up to him.

(But before world domination is possible, I'm gonna have to finalize the Intelligence Agency's establishment, find employees and a good place for a base of operations.)

(Ugh! There's so much to do!)

This is the story of how a spy from Earth established an Intelligence Agency in another world.
