Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

The sixth month. The cease-fire agreement expired so it’s certainly about time to invade the Rosyth Kingdom.

Then it happened.

“Ggguwahhh”

“My King!, My King!!”

King DeMorgal grasps his chests and falls.

The sorcerers immediately gather around him and begin treating him.

However, their efforts have been fruitless and the king has stopped breathing.

All these without having named the next king…….

In the DeMorgal Capital, in Aldo DeMorgal’s estate.

Inside is a 15-year-old boy as well as a woman in her early twenties.

The boy is wearing extravagant clothes, so you can see that he has quite the high social status. It’s only natural. He’s the lord of this room after all, Aldo de Morgal, himself.

On the other hand, the woman is wearing extremely crude clothing. From her beautiful blond hair, you can see that she’s a Germanis.

Furthermore, her chest area is quite stocked with fat.

If Almis were to see her he’d definitely give judgement along the lines of ‘this one’s a heavy cruiser…..no, this one’s battleship class. Not a dreadnaught class but…..around a Mikasa-class, huh…..’

However, what ruins all that is her face.

Her face is by no means ugly. Rather, it’s even fine for you to say that her appearance is in order.

However, her birthmark stands out.

Furthermore, above all, what’s pathetic are the shackles on her feet and the choker on her neck.

A chain that stretches from that choker is in Aldo’s hands.

Aldo shouts.

“AA!! Dad has died!! How happ…that’s not it. How dreadful!! Now then, what should we do from now.”

“…….Even if you ask me, I don’t understand.”

“Shut up!! How impertinent!! Even though you’re just a spider!!”

Aldo kicks his slave.

He kicks her repeatedly in the stomach, rides her, then smacks her in the face.

While getting hit, the slave……..Alice thought:

“I wonder if I need to stand this for five minutes.”

Exactly after five minutes have passed, Aldo separates from Alice after he grew tired of hitting.

“Oi, Alice, Come and kill Pax.”

“That again….it’s quite novel yes?”

It’s quite like Aldo to suddenly order the assassination of a very important person but, it’s also quite like Alice to not veto such an order.

It’s as if assassinating is the same as going to a picnic.

“…….However, won’t that make you suspect? If Prince Pax got killed under these circumstances, no matter what you think, wont the culprit be you?”

“Under these circumstances, the next king would be Pax. The most indisputable point is his length of service after all plus the fact of the matter is it was he who was to become the supreme commander of the invasion of the Rosyth Kingdom that was supposed to happen. Furthermore, I want to become king. Rather than spend several days waging a civil war and then killing Pax, It’s better for the sake of the country to kill him now, right?”

As expected, Alice’s eyes widened at Aldo’s expression.

Aldo, on the other hand, laughs heartily.

“Then after that?”

“I’ll kill everyone with hostility in the royal capital. I’ll use my private army. If I were to succeed to perform a surprise attack, then we should be able to do such. I’ll have you kill those great clansmen that have their own huge private armies. If it loses their head, an army should suffer command paralysis.”

“……Is that so?”

Alice gives off a sigh.

In the end, the one who will bear the full brunt of the danger would be her.

“By the way, what about Prince Carlo?”

“That guy’s secluded in a mountain far away from here. There’s no way we can kill him and Pax at the same time. We’ll send separate soldiers to kill him. Even I won’t give such impossible orders. I’m a good lord after all.”

Well, a good lord won’t be hitting a slave to a pulp.

Although Alice thought that “Aren’t you always giving me close to impossible tasks?”, she just kept silent.

Although she’s gotten used to it, it’s much much better if she doesn’t get hit.

“What do we do with what would remain of the Pax Faction and Carlo Faction? Although I don’t think they’d honestly obey.”

“If they obey, then I’ll forgive them. If they don’t then it’s capital punishment for them. Great clansmen mostly obey if they manage to secure recognition and guarantee of their possessions.”

If you heard their side at the very least, then it’s something that would probably go well.

Although the key to the operation lies in Alice assassinating Pax and the many influential greatclansmen that possess their private armies……Aldo trusts that she would be able to achieve such.

If she did it in the dead of the night, then she’d be able to do it with certainty.

However, what should they do after that? Instead of a just cause, only a bad reputation will remain with Aldo.

It’s not hard to think that you’d succeed with the assassination.

The problem is it’s easy to guess who’s the culprit by thinking about who gets to profit in the person’s death.

Your reputation will increase if you destroyed them in battle fair and square, but it’ll only be a scandal if you settle the matter through cowardly means.

It would only be a huge stain on your honor.

Therefore, assassination is only a last resort used when there are no other options available.

Although King DeMorgal only has Carlo, Pax, and Aldo as his sons, there still are a lot of other people that share their blood.

Rather than the kinslayer Aldo, there’s enough possibility that they’d pull a fast one with another member of the royal family.

As Aldo himself said with confidence, what nobility desires from a king is the recognition and guarantee of their hereditary estates.

As expected, how many great clansmen can rest easy thinking about when will the sword, of a man who had killed even his own brother, befall them.

It’d be fine if he’s a slow and gullible person.

Aldo, however, imprudently makes his wits work so he’d be difficult to manipulate.

(Well, that doesn’t concern me……)

In any case, Aldo is not one to listen.

If he couldn’t even lend his ear to his father’s advice, then there’s no way he’ll lend them to Alice.

She’ll only get told off with ‘Don’t get ahead of yourself spider woman’ and get hit as a result.

“Understand? We’ll carry out the plan a week later. Prepare yourself until then. I’ll also complete preparations on my end.”

“……Yes.”

Alice quietly nods.

Midnight a week later.

Alice is on top of a roof of a house near Prince Pax’s manor.

You can see the manor about 20 meters away.

“Now then, shall we do it…..”

She stretches her arms before her making it clear that her aim is the roof of Prince Pax’s manor.

*Bishuu*

While making such a stupid sound, a thread comes forth fromo Alice’s finger and hits the prince’s roof.

Its thickness is around a centimeter.

She then rubs the thread at her feet to fix it and make a 1cm bridge.

She then calmly jumps on top of it and walks through it while skillfully maintaining her balance.

Just like that, she managed to cross over to the prince’s roof.

“Now then…….if I recall correctly, Prince Pax’s room is the third room from the right on the second floor, right?……”

The prince’s manor is three storeys high so it’s necessary to go down another floor.

Alice places her hand on the roof. With those hands, she makes a sticky thread and used that in order to slowly lower herself.

And just like that, she arrives at Prince Aldo’s balcony.

Although this goes without saying, the door is locked. This is a measure against insolent people like Alice.

There’s no key hole ((on the outside). Even if it’s assumed that people will come to the balcony, the same doesn’t go with coming from the balcony.

A locksmith should be able to open it anyway, so it wasn’t furnished.

It’s an ironwall protection. Except to people like Alice, at least.

“How annoying.”

Alice twined some thread around her finger and made a drill-like object after a durable steel like thread had accumulated.

“Torya”

*Thud*

While making a slightly loud noise, Alice’s finger penetrates the wooden door.

It was quite a loud sound, so it woke up the sleeping Prince Pax.

“Hmm? Wha? What In the…..GGGhhHH!!!”

A thread from Alice’s finger wraps around Pax’s neck.

She pulls on this which tightens the hold on Pax.

For a while, Pax struggles through pulling and scratching on to the thread. Nevertheless, a while later he stops moving.

“Now then, I need to come back. It’ll become troublesome if I get discovered after all. …..Well, I’m not in the mood for getting caught even if they do discover me.”

If she gets home, she’ll get hit.

She doesn’t like pain.

With Alice’s true power, it’ll be a walk in the park to kill Aldo and escape, but it’s imprinted on her to not be able to go against Aldo.

Then Alice hears a great noise. When she looks at the source of the noise, she sees a blaze rising.

Aldo seems to have started mobilizing.

Unless she gets there quickly to reinforce him, she’d get accused of playing truant and get hit again.

Alice heads for the direction of the noise with great haste.

Thanks to the appeal for reconsideration in the previous war, Carlo was exiled with close supervision from the capital to a slightly distant mountain.

But then again, such a life was quite a comfortable one.

In any case, he was placed under house arrest in a villa maintained by a great clansman of the Carlo faction, so the experience is very comfortable.

There, Carlo did nothing but read books and flirt with women slaves, go hunting then flirt with female slaves, read poetry and go flirting with women slaves, and the like.

By the way, Carlo has a fiancée and their relationship is favorable.

In that fateful day, Carlo went to the town at the bottom of the mountain.

Even if you call it a town, it’s to the extent not that different from a village.

Carlo got teased into going by the slaves because they wanted to go and play outside once in a while.

Even he had grown tired of the greenery, so he hid himself, went to the town to play, and stayed there for the night.

What woke him up from his wonderful travels in the dreamworld was a worried soldier that had followed them secretly.

“It’s terrible Prince Carlo! A coup has occurred in the royal capital! Prince Aldo has murdered Prince Pax! Even the villa in the mountain is already receiving an attack from Prince Pax’s soldiers. The soldiers are fighting as we speak! Although they don’t know that Your Highness is here…….please hurry and escape! I’ve prepared a carriage!!”

“Eeh!! Why…….no, I’ll hear the details later. Let’s escape immediately!!”

Carlo hurriedly wakes the female slaves and leaves the town.

And thus, Carlo unexpectedly manages to escape from Aldo’s hands.

Author’s notes:

Although Aldo properly closed the sliding storm shutter and checks it several times, he’s the type to forget to close the gas tank.

King DeMorgal comments of him from the Sanzu River that “Although his head and thoughts are not bad, he’s not thorough enough or rather he made a fundamental mistake…”

By the way, I intended Spiderman to be the joke material for Alice. However, I didn’t know Spiderman’s name since I’ve never seen the movie even once although I did read the wiki page on it.

Well, I wouldn’t mind if you think of her as having the same specs as Spiderman. Incidentally, divine protections……and the like…she doesn’t have any of those, but divine protections are related.

Although Almis would win in a pure contest of strength, Alice would be almost unrivaled in interior (and the like) three dimensional spaces.

As far as Aldo is concerned, you can say she’s a shogi piece equivalent to a rook. (Also, he doesn’t have a bishop, a gold general, and a silver general.) (TLN: I don’t play shogi so I can’t really explain.)
