"Why do you like to interfere in human affairs so much, Princess? Wasn't it enough yesterday that you defied your own father when you loved this human child?"
"That is in the past, King. Now we have trouble on the way. I want the king to order the troops in the field to stop attacking."
The demon king then rose from his throne and walked to the end of the stairs.
"I am sorry, Princess. If the report of your men is true, then it is the troops of the mountain demons. I can't help you much. They are gathering forces today to undermine my authority."
"What is going on? Why haven't I heard anything about this?"
"You've been so busy with the humans that you've forgotten where you came from. Your father already knows."
"The North Coast?"
"They know first because it's related to them."
"What happened exactly?"
"Princess. Time is already chasing you. Hurry and save your husband. I'm sorry you're alone on land this time."
