Chapter 153: Chapter 152: Leaving the Holy Kingdom
After Yulia finished speaking to Sikia, she left first.
"Lady Yulia must be leaving to prepare some apology gifts for me. She's so kind to me," Sikia thought to herself as she watched Yulia's retreating figure.
Sikia had a key to Yulia's villa. After opening the door, she saw Peroroncino lying on the couch.
Peroroncino was resting his head on Yulia's lap, and Misty was massaging his legs.
"This... This is a lap pillow. Damn it, you bastard, using your position to force Lady Yulia to give you a lap pillow!" Sikia shouted angrily at Peroroncino.
Yulia was about to say something, but Peroroncino pressed a finger to her lips, silencing her.
Peroroncino had grown accustomed to a life where no one defied him.
After a while, he started to feel a bit bored. Finally encountering a naive person, he decided to have some fun with her.
"You're right," Peroroncino said with a smirk. "I used my position to have Yulia give me a lap pillow."
"Not only that, Yulia has already gotten into my bed."
Hearing this, Sikia suddenly froze.
"Is it true that Lady Yulia...?" Sikia wanted Yulia to tell her it was a lie.
"It's true..." Yulia answered.
Sikia stood there, stunned, struggling to calm her emotions, unable to speak.
To her, Yulia was like a goddess. The thought that this man had defiled her was unbearable. The idea that her idol had been with someone like that was something no one could accept.
After a moment of calm, Sikia thought that it must not have been Yulia's choice.
"You forced Lady Yulia, didn't you?!" Sikia shouted at Peroroncino.
Peroroncino did not answer and extended his hand in a claw-like shape.
Yulia grabbed Peroroncino's hand and pressed it against her chest...
"It was my choice to be with Lord Chino," Yulia said without looking at Sikia.
Her gaze was fixed on Peroroncino, her eyes filled with admiration.
That expression was just like the one Sikia, and the members of the Apostolic Knight, had when they looked at Lady Yulia.
Admiring the other person, feeling unworthy of them, a similar look in her eyes.
Sikia froze in place, her eyes rolled back, and her head hit the ground with a thud.
"Her mental resilience is really weak! I was planning to tease Yulia right in front of her."
Peroroncino thought to himself as he looked at Sikia.
"Leave everything here to Neia! In three days, leave with me!"
"Yes!"
As he spoke, Peroroncino's other hand pressed against another peak.
The two of them walked toward the bedroom.
......
Sikia, lying on the ground, was taken away by Misty and handed over to others.
After Sikia woke up, she spent a day and night alone thinking, and decided to respect Lady Yulia's decision.
After all, as a woman, one has to find a partner. Since that was Yulia's choice, she should respect Lady Yulia's choice.
Then, when she went to Yulia's residence again, she learned that Yulia had already left the Holy Kingdom.
Neia replaced Yulia as the leader of the Apostolic Knights.
As for Sikia, not wanting to be found by anyone, she hid herself away. Then, under Yulia's command, she became the vice-captain.
Initially, Neia had refused.
"The greater the strength, the greater the responsibility. Since you have gained such great power, then contribute to the future of the Holy Kingdom. This position of captain belongs to you." Peroroncino persuaded.
"But your strength should be stronger than mine!" Neia retorted.
"We're not from the Holy Kingdom! Everything has been arranged. Now, work hard for the sake of your respected Sorcerer King!"
After Peroroncino finished speaking, he left with his people without waiting for Neia to refuse.
Leaving Neia standing in the wind, feeling bewildered.
Originally, she was just a small team leader, and now she had been made the leader of an entire organization. All she felt was confusion.
Not long after, someone came to discuss the future development and plans for the Apostolic Knights with Neia.
Neia, being quite capable, quickly adapted to the role.
When Sikia met Neia, she raised her doubts.
She felt that Neia wasn't qualified to be the leader of the Apostolic Knights.
"Lady Yulia had great power and a beautiful appearance. You're just a little girl..."
Objectively speaking, Neia wasn't ugly. She had previously had dark circles under her eyes from lack of sleep. Now that she had rested enough, and with the staff of the administrator, her appearance had changed.
She now looked completely different, with a commanding presence, and her appearance was not bad at all.
"Lord Chino granted me the same power as Lady Yulia. My strength now is definitely no weaker than Remedios!" Neia spoke up.
"Talk big, then try it."
However, as soon as the battle started, Neia seized Sikia's sword and pressed it against her neck.
Throughout the entire encounter, Neia never drew her own weapon.
Sikia was convinced, and this made everyone else acknowledge Neia's position as leader.
Peroroncino now planned to go to the Slane Theocracy.
Nana was currently in the Slane Theocracy, and Peroroncino also wanted to witness the strength of the strongest human nation.
