Intimidation and Negotiation

Inside the castle's throne room of Camelot was a woman sitting on the throne while her knights who had finished reporting their duty were leaving the throne room beside her aide.

(It's been a while since master summoned me into this world...)

"Then, If you also excuse me, your majesty."

His aide, who guessed that her King was thinking something important, also decided to take his leave, leaving Artoria, who looked outside the castle's window where every monster interacted with others with vigor and became human-like since Dino gave them a name.

(He also made me the ruler of this place when I'm supposed to be the failed King...)

Artoria thought as she remembered her vagued distant memories since Dino named her ''Artoria Pendragon''.

(When he names me... it also brought this human feeling that was supposed to be gone when I become a Divine Spirit... a God without human reasons and feelings)

Artoria, looking at the town of Camelot, was having a complicated feeling as she looked at everyone smiling, laughing, and praising her and Dino for the great blessing and protection they gave to them.

(He created my Ideal Utopia where everyone is happy in just a matter of months... really, just who are you master?)

Artoria, whose been thinking about the identity of her master, also decided to leave the throne room to prepare and welcome their sudden visitors from Beast Kingdom Eurazania.

(This time, I won't fail to protect this country)

...

...

Near the gate of Camelot were two figures waiting for their visitors' arrival who suddenly visited them as a group of Lycanthrope or Beastmen approached them with tigers clad in electricity that brought their carriage.

"You did know your role, right, Sir Mordred?"

"Tsk, Talking sh*t about them, yeah, right?"

"..."

"..."

"Hah..."

Lancelot sigh as he shakes his head due to Mordred's blatant personality as he has also been given the role of making it difficult for their visitors to negotiate with them. While they waited, their visitors arrived in front of them as a beautiful mature woman came down to the carriage.

"It is a pleasure to meet you; I am Albis, the Golden Serpent, one of the Demon Lord Carrion's Three Beastketeers."

(I see; at least they sent their highest-ranking subordinates here, meaning that they are serious about going on a treaty with us)

Lancelot thought, looking at the woman whose aura was formidable as him while another woman with white hair and a lean figure came down with vigor as she kicked the carriage door.

"You gotta be kidding me!? We, the Demon Lord Carrion's Three Beastketeers, were greeted by only two small fries!? If you wanna screw with us, you can only take it so far."

"..."

"You bastards who came out of nowhere decided to visit us like wild animals then you are suddenly are now talking sh*t on us, are you picking a fight with us, huh?!"

Mordred said as she seethed with anger because of the white hair Beastketeers who suddenly said to them that they were small fries as she looked down on them.

"..."

"Stand down, Suphia; you may as well be slinging mud directly onto Carrion-sama's face."

"Oh, shut up, Albis. You can't order me around."

(What a farce... they most likely also said those things on Tempest when they also visited that place)

Lancelot thought while looking at the two Beastketeers whose arguing about them.

"Besides that, Albis, looking at their figure, they look like weakling humans; I fear that their King was also weakling-looking human; it is a disgrace to become a friendly on terms on this puny, insolent, and cowardly humans."

"Bastard! What did you say to my father!?"

Suphia continued to insult them while Mordred, whose on-breaking limit is now releasing bloodlust that could make any weak-willed monsters faint.

"Hoh, interesting, you want a fight?"

"HAHHH-- I WON'T FORGIVE THOSE WHO BELITTLE AND INSULT MY KING!!!"

"!"

"!"

--BAAAMMM

...

...

"Master, most likely Sir Mordred is now engaging battle with them."

Jeff said to Dino, whose lazying around the couch while eating snacks created by the chefs of Camelot.

"Who are you talking about?"

"This... most likely Sir Mordred is now-"

"No, its most likely Lancelot who's giving them a hell beating."

"Eh?"

Dino replied to Jeff whose confused because Dino said the least he expected to hear.

"Even though Mordred would likely engage them because of her personality, Lancelot was one of the most loyal knight who loved and respected Artoria as a king aside from Bedivere, and insulting Artoria would only trigger him to become a berserker."

"..."

Dino smirked as he watched the battle between Lancelot and the two Beastketeers.

"You are a wicked one, master."

"Thanks for the compliment!"

"..."

Dino thanks Jeff, who becomes speechless due to Dino's reply to him while Dino continues to watch the battle between Lancelot and the two Beastketeers.

...

...

(This human-looking knight is strong!)

Suphia thought as she and Albis engaged in battle with Lancelot.

"Sir, this is-"

--BAAAMMMM

Blue-colored Spirit started gathering in Lancelot's presence as he readied his sword in his chest.

"No need to for talks! We will risk our heads and--"

"Sir Lancelot, please calm your head."

"!"

"!"

Lancelot, who was talking to Albis, was interrupted by the woman that appeared out of nowhere. Making Suphia and Albis have a goose bump just by nearing her presence as she walked regally on their side.

(Seriously? to think theirs a monster like that here in this country... Carrion-sama would only be the one who could defeat her)

Suphia thought while Lancelot kneeled together with Mordred, who was dissatisfied because Lancelot steeled her limelight.

"Yes, I apologized for letting my hot head takes control of my body."

"..."

Artoria nodded to Lancelot as she looked at the visitors from Beast Kingdom Eurazania, making Suphia wants to kneel as her body instinctively acknowledged the woman in front as strong as her leader Beast Master Carrion.

(Beastmen only acknowledged strong ones as their superior... this woman, I have no problem with making friendly ties to their kingdom if she is the one who led them)

Suphia thought while Albis looked at her as she nodded at Albis at the same time, that indicated she acknowledged this town as worthy of friendly terms with their kingdom.

"I welcome you, visitors, from Beast Kingdom Eurazania... I am Artoria Pendragon, one of the leaders of the Alliance of Great Forest of Jura."

Artoria introduced herself to the visitors with authority befitting of a King as Artoria and visitors from Eurazania started talking about their future relationship between the two countries.
