After getting informed by Rekka that the Queen of England was on the way here to meet her, Naomi went to the house in the island house and took a shower.
She had no chance to take one since morning and needed to change from her casual clothes to her usual suit to meet the Queen.
Mischa also followed her as Rekka informed her that the Queen wanted to meet both of them, not just Naomi. She was confused why the Queen wanted to meet her too, but because Naomi said it was okay for her to tag along, she finally agreed to accompany Naomi.
More importantly, as Mischa only had casual clothes and a PD uniform in her closet, Naomi forced her to wear the dress that she used when they went on the Opera date.
At first, Mischa refused, saying that the clothes were already dirty from her sweat. However, Julia wasn’t a normal maid. The maid appeared while holding the washed dress in her hand. The big smile on Julia’s face was something.
Finally, Mischa gave up and wore it. Because it was hard to wear, Julia helped her while Naomi prepared to meet the Queen.
Right now, Naomi was on the chair in the meeting room with Rekka. There were only the two of them as the others were busy preparing for the Queen’s arrival.
Even though England wasn’t a big power in the past, the Queen of England herself had a power rivaling even a country due to her influence and power.
Why? Because the Royal family of England was a little bit special. The two recorded deceased SSS-Ranked Esper were part of the Royal family of England. After that, only S-Ranked Esper and SS-Ranked Esper were born in the Royal family of England.
The current Queen, Elizabeth, was also SS-Ranked Esper. A force to be wary of. If a monster like Naomi, Mischa, Melaine, and Avos weren’t present, maybe the Queen of England would be hailed as the strongest Esper in the world.
That was why the Queen had the biggest influence in the United Kingdom and became the country’s sole leader.
It was still unknown why the family and the country could produce strong Espers generation after generation. But they managed to gain control of almost everything in the time the two SSS-Ranked Espers were still active.
“In short, the Royal family is dangerous. Besides Germany, which is a Military Country, only England has a natural stand against the Esper Association due to their power. They hold the secret on how to produce strong Espers. Even to become the police, one needs to be at least B-Ranked Espers. Not to mention, the Royal Guards are all strong. They are at least S-Ranked Espers.” Rekka explained.
“I see. So the police are like the soldiers of the medieval era, while the Royal Guards are like the strong knights guarding the palace.” Naomi summarized. The explanation of her subordinate was too long and detailed. She didn’t need to know all of that, in her opinion.
“Yes. In a way, England is similar to our organization. They have one passionate leader, and the subordinates will follow that person’s command without asking any questions. They put their utmost trust in their Queen as we do in you, Princess.”
“Hahaha, it’s embarrassing, you know. How long will you call me Princess? Now that I look like this, isn’t the title a bit… childish?” Naomi laughed, a bit embarrassed.
‘And how can you call me Princess in the face of the real Queen?! That will make me even more embarrassed!’ She added in her mind.
Rekka smiled, “Well, you can’t blame me. It sticks in my tongue after two years. Hahahaha.”
The atmosphere was light. It was not the expected atmosphere for people who would meet a leader of a country. They were too carefree. That was the case because the serious person in the organization, Chi and Mizuki, wasn’t with them.
At that moment, the door was opened, and a girl wearing a white dress entered. Her hair was tied in a bun, looking like a girl who would go to a prom.
“Excuse me…” She said shyly, holding her elbow with her hand.
Naomi and Rekka looked at her, and Naomi spoke first, praising her.
“Mischa, you’re here. You look more beautiful than when we were on our date.”
“Indeed. I almost thought you were a stranger because you looked different than usual.” Rekka nodded and agreed with Naomi.
Indeed. With Julia’s touch, Mischa looked different than usual. The maid put on make-up on her, making the platinum-haired girl wear high heels and even grooming her hair.
Naomi didn’t know how the maid could do something so complex in a short time. But she would praise her later.
“Please stop that… It's embarrassing. I have never put on make-up before.” Mischa said as her face reddened a little.
Looking at her, Naomi smiled. However, she immediately put on a serious face as she felt an unfamiliar Esper pressure coming from the entrance gate at a fast speed. Possibly, the Esper who had the pressure was taking a car.
And the pressure wasn’t the only one. Two Esper pressures, a bit weaker than the first one, belonging to SS-Ranked Espers were also moving with the first one. Anyone who had those pressures certainly didn’t even try to hide them.
Were they confident? Yes. But, were they hostile? No.
Maybe they wanted to show sincerity to Naomi by telling her indirectly that they had that much strength. That would surely affect the greeting and meeting later. Even Naomi changed her mind about England by just feeling those pressures.
“Rekka…” Naomi smiled wryly. “It seems England hides more than the information that you have.” She said excitedly.
The red hair nodded seriously. Mischa also looked serious. All her embarrassment seemed to disappear completely due to the approaching Esper pressure.
“It seems that the world underestimated them, blinded by the Esper Association’s greatness. My apologies, Princess. I have brought you incomplete information.” Rekka stood up and bowed, apologizing to Naomi.
“No. It’s not a problem. Maybe England just has that much strength in information concealment too. The Queen is more interesting than I thought. I couldn’t even feel her pressure when I met her in that Opera. Right, Mischa?” Naomi winked at Mischa.
“Yes. That’s why she appears to be calm in the face of someone with a gun, huh?”
“Indeed.” Naomi nodded.
Rekka, who knew nothing about it, raised his head and repeatedly blinked as he let out a confused voice.
“Pardon?”
“Oh, you don’t know, huh? When I went on a date with Mischa, we met the Queen. We even talked to her. However… I see… The world has been lied to.”
“What do you mean, Princess?” Rekka asked.
“Can’t you tell? That pressure. It’s closer to an SSS-Ranked Esper instead of an SS-Ranked Esper. The Queen, possibly, is SSS-Ranked Esper. One who managed to hide all these years.”
This made Naomi excited.
‘Another SSS-Ranked that’s not recorded. I wonder if there are more of them?’
While Naomi was excited, a dry laugh escaped Rekka’s mouth. Somehow, it turned out that there was a lot that he didn’t know about the world. And one more thing.
“I hope nothing happens in your meeting with the Queen, Princess.”
“Hahaha, don’t worry. The Queen is a kind middle-aged lady. I believe it will be fine. Oh, and Rekka. Please just call me Naomi later. Don’t call me Princess, alright? Not in the face of the Queen, at least.”
Somehow, Naomi’s answer made Rekka feel uneasy, something that he had always felt whenever Naomi would do something absurd.
“Certainly.” He answered.
Then, with his gaze lowered, he sincerely hoped, ‘I hope nothing unusual happens…’ He sincerely hoped.
