Quite honestly, it would be a lie to say Mei-Rin was not afraid. Yes, she did try to pretend she was brave, but this situation left her completely defenseless. Besides, she had heard the stories about the King, and it terrified her. What if he decided to kill her just to win? And it would not be anything uncommon.

Today she made sure that everything was in place for the new visitor. He would be staying for a few days and would be able to absorb as much as he could about the kingdom before coming to a decision about an alliance.

The king and queen were most excited about this visit as they were informed it would be a king. For them it meant that Carla may strike his interest and possibly be taken back to his kingdom. Carla knew this to be a possibility, but was more concerned about making a impression than anything else the moment he arrived.

“In fact...I think we are about to run into an ambush.” Kaiakumi frowned, the thin hair of her spider body tingling. “...ugh we were so close to the well too...this is annoying...”

It turned out that the chaos being’s intuition was right, arrows soon coming from 8 different directions aiming at both Broden and Kaiakumi.

After she opened the door, she had only one second to react but it was too late, She only had a split second to scream before he started.

On a peaceful evening in a village build near a volcano, the rough voice of the villages most skilled blacksmith Vol Ignea Umbra echoed through his humble residence. “Broden! Where in the world is Kaiakumi? She said she would be back home before dinner. Please tell me she isn’t putting herself in danger again...” The giant rubbed his temples as he waited for Broden to answer him. Being only the uncle and not the father of the two younger demonkin didn’t make things easier, especially in case of Kaiakumi. She was such a rebel sometimes, even at the age of 2100 years.
