Queen of Melromarc

I'm sitting in the personal carriage of shield boy while we are on our way to the capital of the kingdom. We were far away from the capital, so we had a few days to unwind. I checked on the filio queen in my gate and noticed that she was starting to come to her senses.

I bring her out of the gate and immediately get a question from shield boy, "How did you do that?".

I answer it the usual way, "Magic!", with jazz hands for added flare.

I look at the filio queen and see her scoot closer to me for more cuddle time. I just ask her some basic questions to start out like her name and how her day is going.

Her name is Fitoria and her day is going well. I tell her that she has become my partner after the cuddle session we had and she closes her eyes and enjoys being close to me, before opening them again and thanking me. I don't know what for, but I'm happy to help.

We chat and relax in the carriage on our way to the capital with occasional questions from the shield hero's party. I don't answer all of them, but the ones I do answer are important for building trust with the group.

We spend time on the way to the capital enjoying the scenery while the queen's guards fought off monsters.

When we reach the capital and enter the palace the queen calls a court meeting to discuss the punishment for her eldest daughter and husband for colluding with the church in a plot to take over the kingdom and kill the crown princess.

They pleaded innocent, before a slave seal was placed on the bitch and she confessed to everything just so that the pain from the slave seal would stop.

"Since the shield hero was most effected by the actions of my daughter and husband, what do you propose should be their punishment?", the queen asks. This is a smart move on the queen's part because she can't take the blame for whatever the shield hero decides as their punishment. I give her props for her wisdom at least.

"Please! Nafumi, I didn't mean to hurt you like that! AHHH! It was the church who forced me. AHHH!", for every lie she utters the slave seal inflicts more pain on her body.

Every lie just pushes the anger in shield boy closer to the surface until he can't take her bullshit anymore and explodes.

"Kill her! I want her dead for what she has done to me!", he yells out. I find this the most reasonable solution and punishment for her stupid greed. She wanted political power, so she schemed with the cult to get more even if it meant ruining a life or causing destruction from the waves after the shield hero dies. If she lives, she could find another way to trade the lives of hundreds for power and we might not stop her at that time.

"Wait shield hero.", the queen says. This doesn't bode well because if she denies his request it can only mean one thing.

"I cannot execute a member of the royal family. For as terrible a crime they committed it weaken the royal family and causes panic in the citizens of my kingdom. Please find a less violent, but still fitting punishment.", she says playing the part of the wise ruler trying to correct someone about to take a wrong turn.

Fuck! This bitch is trying to use the shield hero just like her husband and daughter. Show people the other side is wrong, and you have a reason to correct them, and they will think you hold authority over them. If she corrects a legendary hero like this, it's like saying she has more power than them.

I'm sick and tired of all these stupid schemes from shady cunts that like to hold onto power! I am calling her out on her bullshit. First, I hit her with the fact the waves can FUCKING DESTROY CONTRIES WITHOUT THE HEROES! Someone that inhibits a hero from doing their job of stopping the waves is working against the world and causing problems that can ruin lives.

Next, I hit her with the cold hard facts that this bitch with red hair would do anything for power and, if left alone, could find a way to interfere again. The red head looks at me in shock because she never thought I would speak up without permission. Fuck that! I will call out all these people's bullshit with or without permission to speak from some cunt that is doing what she is punishing others for.

The red head denies my accusations but forgot that she can't lie and screams out in pain.

When people see the proof that she would cause more trouble for power the scales tip and the majority agree with execution. The queen keeps her calm façade up, ready to pull another bullshit reason out of her ass, but I can sense her heart rates and know she is panicking.

The queen argues that her daughter can be kept in the castle dungeon until the waves are over, but I point out that the shield hero was going to decide what to do with her and the queen freezes. Sophia has already understood what I am trying to do and conveniently lets info about my personal hell slip out around shield boy when he opens his mouth to decide.

With everything in place for the bitch's one-way trip to my personal hell the shield hero only needs to pull the trigger.

"I want her to rot in hell! Sarah, if you would.", he asks me. Yes! The queens plot has been foiled and I get a new resident for hell.

The dead bitch starts screaming and cursing at us about how unfair this is when I shut her up by ripping out her soul with magic. I open a nice big portal to hell for everyone in the room to see before tossing in the dead bitch and preventing any future problems.
