Chapter 43: Ch-43: The Moody Devil King

The woman wore expensive but very low-key clothes. Although she was middle-aged, she maintained herself well. At first glance, she seemed to be only in her late thirties.

The woman's expression was grave, with a pair of silver-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose she looked more of a teacher, the strict look on her face brought her the demeanor with an embodiment of a strict governess.

"Don't you know what place is this! This is the residence of the daughter of the Duke of Goddodin, Lady of the British Empire, Her Royal Highness Alice Louise Ove Nafal! How dare you break into the princess's residence."

The middle aged woman suppressed her anger and asked sternly.

Erica and Liliana looked at each other. After seeing Roy slowly walking out from behind them, both them silently stood at his sides. 

Roy stopped infront of the middle aged woman with both of his hands in his pockets, and said in lackadaisical tone:

"Well let me be the one to answer your questions. First of all, no need to introduce these lofty titles to me, it's boring and a wastage of time, since we crashed here for the 'party', we already know whose residence it is."

"As for 'how did we dare to break into our dignified princess house'~, daring I am from birth."

"Anyway, I wanted the princess to do something from me so we here uninvited. Oh~ I forgot to ask, anyways, who are you, my lady?"

"I am the protector, housekeeper and Chief Lady in Waiting of His Royal Highness Alice Louise Ove Nafal, Patricia Veve Ericson..." 

"Who are you? Why did you use hypnotic magic to break into the palace? You could have definitely asked for a appointment."

The housekeeper restrained her anger and said. Her focus was mainly on the Erica and Liliana, looking them vigilantly. 

Since she can be appoint as the Princess Alice's protector, her strength is naturally not weak, but she was still shocked by the strength of two girls in front of her. 

As a witch, she possess extraordinary senses, she could perceive the great amount of magical energy stored in their body. These two teenage girls turned out to be Great Knights! 

The rank of the Great Knight are only given to those who have reached a pinnacle in the field of both swordsmanship and magic. 

Even Salvatore Doni who was an unparalleled sword genius was born without the ability to harness magical energy in his body, rendering him unable to perform magic, which ultimately resulted in him failing to become a Knight.

Since being a knight requires one to know an adequate amount of magic and swordsmanship, being a failed knight, he often took dirty jobs, only after becoming a Godslayer was he able to harness magical energy. 

"I am Erica Brandelli of Copper Black Cross and this is my companion, Liliana Kranjcar of Bronze Black Cross."

"I am sorry for breaking into Princess Alice's residence uninvited. But my 'king' have arrived to visit the Princess, so as per the etiquette, Princess Alice should immediately come to greet the 'king'!"

Erica stopped Liliana who wanted to speak. She was more adept at this kind of diplomacy than her 'pure' friend. 

Her gorgeous and exquisite face showed a confident and elegant smile, she answered politely.

She doesn't have the strength of Roy, a Campione, who could do whatever he willed. Now she not only represents Roy but also the Copper Black Cross, so she doesn't want to lose in terms of courtesy and mannerism. 

"Copper Black Cross? It's that Italian mage association... You are the next successor who just received the title of 'Crimson Devil' not long ago? So, the 'king' you are talking about..."

At this moment, Patricia's expression finally changed. As the housekeeper of the former chairperson of the Council of Sages, of course she also knows about the current affairs of the magic world very well.

She has even seen the photos of the other six Campiones. It suddenly occurred to her that, this girl named Erica Brandelli became the new king's personal knight not long ago, that means...

Just when Patricia was shocked, Roy already graciously sauntered towards the paintings hanging on the walls, took out one of them and then he sat on the sofa leisurely to appreciate the painting, as if this palace was owned by him. 

However, no one felt discontent. It looked natural, as if a king marking his own territory. 

"King Roy!"

Seeing Roy features being exactly the same as the description in the intelligence record, Patricia's face finally changed. She quickly threw out all her anger and bowed to greet the 'devil king on earth'. 

"Princess Alice can recruit a housekeeper as strong and loyal as you, this is enough to show her excellence."

Roy placed the painting on the sofa, stood up and loosened his overcoat as he treaded in front of Patricia. 

"Your praise makes me overwhelmed, King. I'm just..."

Patricia was just about say some more humble words, when she heard Roy suddenly interrupted in temper: 

"...Since I'm personally here! Why isn't Princess Alice coming to greet me!"

This sentence can be described as purposely creating trouble. Princess Alice doesn't even know about Roy's arrival, and hasn't received any prior news, so how could she come to greet him?

But Patricia didn't dare to refute. At this time, she had already covered her heart with her hands, a pain that almost ripped her heart fell upon her, slowly consuming her sanity. 

This is the passive state of Roy's 'Face of God', no matter what emotions he has on his face, it affects the one to whom that emotion is directed towards.

Although, Roy did not actively activate this ability, but when Patricia came in front of him, it already affected her. 

Roy's previous gentleness made Patricia feel like a spring breeze flowing in a valley filled with flowers. 

But the sudden rage seemed to bring the freezing cold of unforgiving, deadly winter.

This too abrupt emotional change under the power of the 'Face of God', made this woman who possesses the strength of a quasi great knight feel her body consumed in torturous mental pain. 

Taking two deep breaths to make her mind and body to mitigate her thinking, Patricia said hoarsely: 

"...please calm down, King. I'll go and notify the princess of your arrival!"

A devil king's willfulness is notorious, Patricia didn't dare to even show the slightest bit of resentment. 

"Presumptuous! Since I am here to see her, do I still need to report my arrival?"

Roy fully demonstrated what is called the moodiness of a devil king on earth. The wrathful face even made Liliana agitate and lightly tremble in fear. 

Only Erica, who has contacted with Roy for a while, knows that Roy's move must have more profound meaning. Therefore, she obediently stood next to Roy, fulfilling her duties as a knight.

The pair of strange double, bright silver-blue pupils suddenly changed into pairs of green crystallized salt pupils. 

As the eyes focused on her, to her horror, Patricia found that her soul, body, and even her magical energy seemed to be collapsing.

Starting from her toes, her whole body began to turn to salt, and in an instant, half of her body had already turned into a pillar of salt.

This is the ability derived from his <Sin of Sodom> — 'Eye of Sodom'. 

Seeing this familiar power, an imperceptible fear flashed across Liliana's face. At the Female Wolf headquarters, Roy almost turned her teacher Diana Milito, the Commander in Chief of Bronze Black Cross; into a human pillar of salt. 

"Please stop, King Roy! The Alice you are looking has come to welcome you!"

Not far from Patricia, a woman's tender voice came forth. Her voice was very agile, like a lively lark in an empty valley, but the bright and bubbly voice was mixed with a touch of annoyance.

A slender but vulpine figure suddenly appeared at the gate of the palace. 

She was a beautiful young woman of European ancestry with long platinum blonde hair and green eyes. Enough to make any man shower praises on the beautiful face and beautiful figure. 

Her movements were compelling and elegant. There was a noble ladylike temperament mixed in her each move that seemed to be give a perfume like intoxicating feeling. 

It's just that the frowning brows of the princess destroyed the beautiful picture, her porcelain white skin was also taut.

"You are finally willing to show up, Princess Alice! And I thought how long you will keep hiding, peeping from there and not showing your face to your 'guests' and keep using your butler to test me."

"What a bold act! Knowing the arrival of the Campione you still dare to act so boldly. It seems that Mr. Alexander Gascoigne gave you a wrong judgment of a devil king's nature."

"Gascoigne is worthy of the name of Black Prince, when I meet him, I must 'applaud' him on how he has blackened the reputation of the word Campione."

"...And, the Sage Princess who has a good reputation throughout Europe, if your housekeeper dies here, all the crimes will be blamed on you, on your temptation to use her as a chess piece."

Roy's heart-piercing words made Alice blush with regret and embarrassment, but what frightened her even more was that the Roy's heavy, green crystalline salt pupils abruptly turned to look at her.
