Versatile: Alternate World

I knew it! The twins indeed have taken over the role of the siblings. However, it seems they have yet to properly synchronize with the body to properly use their powers. As result, Pierre was easily killed like I just tore a paper.

"You f*ckers, where is the real prince?!"

Alexandria is still writhing in anger as she saw her brother get killed in front of her but as soon as I call out where is the real prince, she smirked.

"Heh, why would I tell you?"

SNAP!

A black shadow engulfed the remaining royal family. I didn't waste my time and changed my weapon into a spear and shield and throw the spear at them before they disappeared.

PENG!

The spear got deflected and I have to catch it. Too bad but the f*ckers managed to escape. I know I killed Remis already but as long as Lemis is still existing and out there with the king and queen, she can revive Remis with ease. To prevent that, I need to kill them both.

Tina and the others rush towards us and the first thing Tina went straight is none other than her brother.

"Pierre!"

She held the dead body of Pierre(?) without caring whether he is releasing blood from the stab wound I inflicted on him.

She stood up as she lay Pierre's body down to the ground.

"I know you helped me get strong, but why did you kill him in your own hands?! Why you didn't say anything to me?!" Tina grabbed my collar with anger in her eyes burning up.

Lina was quick and pulled out a throwing knife and aim it at Tina's neck. "You might be a princess and maybe a disciple of Queen Tanya but if you try to harm Master, I will not hesitate to bring you down right here, right now!"

"We are both former princesses, Tina. I am sure that whatever you will be trying to do, I will also be paying it back a hundredfold," Lucia then lit up her hands with flames.

"Lina, Lucia, stand down and let her be. Tina, inspect carefully the corpse of your "brother". I doubt you wouldn't notice anything strange with him."

"What are you talking about?" Tina then looked at the corpse of his brother(?) and realized something is amiss.

She let go of my collar and went back to look at her brother's corpse. This time, the skin on Pierre(?) seems to have been peeled off. It was like it was just a skin disguise.

"What is going on?"

"An impostor?!"

"Huh...Pretty Sus..." Lucia and Lina said while furrowing their eyebrows.

I approached the corpse and carefully slice up the skin of the dead prince and under the skin is a face of a demon.

"D-demon!" Tina backs off the moment she noticed the true face of Pierre(?)

Lucia who is the real demon princess looked at the remnants of the dead Remis. "I see, no wonder the demon race is now being seen as horrible beings. This face right here tells everything. Even I felt dread and disgust just looking at his face," Lucia then ignites her hands with flames with the intent of burning the corpse to ashes.

"You can burn the magician's body but don't burn the body of the impostor prince. We will need that later."

"...Understood."

I can hear the hesitation of Lucia's voice but she complied. Yes, we really need the corpse of this impostor. If Lemis is planning to revive Remis, the corpse of Remis will disappear which will allow us to know whether she has managed to do so as she will try to use the body of Remis to recreate a new Remis. With magic, she can use the dead body without a hassle.

"Atlas, please carry the body of the impostor and keep it safe in the meantime. The thing that we fear will not happen immediately. Inform me if something happened to the body if there are any changes."

"Yes, Master."

"Now, let's leave before the townspeople wake up, as for the unconscious humans, leave them near the plaza," I ordered everyone.

"Are we not going to explain to them what is happening?" Tina asked.

"No, our business is done here and since our target currently escaped, we can't do that. We will have to escape the Insect Kingdom in the meantime."

"Escape? To where?" Lina asked.

"You guys should know that there are two kingdoms existing in the Aquagius region. Many tend to forget the second kingdom due to how it was hard to interact with them but this kingdom is a much better kingdom compared to the Insect Kingdom. Also, their strength cannot be compared against the Insect Kingdom's might in the Aquagius region. In short, these people will be one of the people we need to interact with. Especially with the current situation, Tina, you are the only one who can defy your current family."

"Ah! I also heard of this kingdom before since my father said that they have established a friendly relationship in the past. However, I don't think I still remember which kingdom you are talking about, Master," Lucia smiled awkwardly.

"You mean... the Kingdom of the Sea?"

"Yes."

"But I heard they are hostile right now to outsiders. Even the insect kingdom can't even get a hold of them!"

"I might have a way to do it."

When I say that, I indeed have a way to do it. Also, the other reason we are planning to interact with them is to ally with them once Lemis counterattacks. As far as I know, the main threat of the twin siblings is Lemis. She might look like a lady who didn't know anything but she is the main brain of the operation and planned everything. She is the most dangerous demon we encountered in the past timeline and if not for the joint effort with the Kingdom of the sea to repel and kill them, our chances of survival are pretty bleak.

I am also not bluffing when I said that I have a plan that will allow us to get inside without the other party getting hostile at us.

"Leona!"

Leona appeared before us. It looks like my initial plan failed. If they were original prince and princess, I might have done just a small ruckus and just let Tina handle everything and just move once the weapon of Pride will appear. Now that the situation seems to be different than what I am expecting and with new variables available, it is time to resort to the Kingdom of the Sea.

...

On the other hand, in the dark castle that is far from the Insect Kingdom, the unconscious king and queen of the Insect Kingdom appeared with Princess Alexandria the one who carried them using teleport magic.

"Damn it. And here I thought we will be able to take over the Insect Kingdom and brainwash everyone. But this is a big blunder, not only did they kill the magician I summoned, even Remis is killed before he can awaken his powers. However, why did Remis die immediately? He was a demon and a single stab shouldn't be enough to at least kill him. How come he died from a single stab wound?! This is beyond my calculations."

Alexandria took a glance at the two royalty lying on the ground and sighed.

"If not for their compatibility with the Weapon of Pride, I would have already disposed of them. They are pretty useless. I can't believe we wasted so many years to brainwash these bastards only to become like this."

She went to her room and pulls out some materials from her storage.

"First, I need to revive Remis. He is the only one who can explain to me what is happening and why my calculations have begun to crumble. This isn't how the plan should have happened! It should have proceeded as planned!"

Gathering the necessary materials to revive Remis, her sibling, she quickly managed to grab everything and created a magic circle to communicate with his brother's soul before she proceed with the revival. It is a necessary step to avoid letting Remis die completely while his soul is wandering around.

Gathering all of the materials in one place, she reconstructs a small magic portal that she has erased a long time ago after saying that she will now have no use of it after finalizing her plan with her brother. Who would have thought she would be constructing the portal once again after the plan failed the first half?

With a drop of blood from her fingertips, she attempts to contact Remis from the afterlife. She has done this many times before due to how careless her brother is in plans and ends up getting killed. As much as she wanted to say she is the brains of the two, she needed the support of Remis to continue.

As she tried to communicate, the moment a connection was established, what she saw wasn't her brother nor his soul.. But the manifestation of what death is like.
