I Am No King's
Chapter 2 - Survival



“Mr Princess Emir?”


 


The Princess Emir, the princess of this kingdom who is also my loyal customer, stood before me. No, not standing. If I had to say, rather, his body was a little crawling, preparing to dodge the next attack. Ah, I don't think that's important for now.


 


“Sorry, who are you?”


 


Ah, yes, I'm wearing a full face helmet. It's normal that he doesn't recognize me.


 


“This is me, Lugalgin.”


 


I took off my helmet for a moment, showing a face. Princess Emir is one of the few people who know my real name, so I have no problem taking off my helmet and showing my face.


 


The Princess Emir opened her mouth wide when she saw my face.


 


“Lugalgin? What are you doing here?”


 


Uh, why didn't he say it? I wish he would say it. Seeing that my plan wasn't too smooth, I returned wearing a helmet.


 


“Sorry if it seems presumptuous, but I should have asked, Mr. Emir Princess. I was on my way home when suddenly this toll road turned into a battlefield!”


 


While answering his question, I turned the motorcycle back on and drove away, away from under the lights. The Princess Emir did the same. Not long after we left, the place I had been staying before was destroyed, struck by an explosion.


 


The Emir's princess again opened fire from five floating tank heads. And just like before, several explosions in the air appeared.


 


“Ah, yes, sorry, looks like you got dragged. But this is precarious. Spies from the kingdom of Mariander came and tried to kill me.”


 


“Employ to kill the Princess? Do they intend to start a war?”


 


Although I use a motorcycle to move, Princess Emir is able to rival my speed. As expected, his long scarf must have been mixed with some material so he could control it. Not only her shawl, there is a possibility that her jacket, pants, and shoes have been mixed with a material so that she can control it.


 


As far as I'm concerned, Princess Emir is a special person with the ultimate control of silicon. Silicon, depending on its mixing, is capable of being as pliable as rubber or as hard as stone. In fact, from some of the information I got, Princess Emir could turn a cloth into a sword with his controlling ability, this is not a figure of speech. So it can be concluded that the clothes, scarves, and barrel of the tank, have a mixture of silicone.


 


Wait up! I'm starting to get off track. Rather than that, it should be a Princess being in the palace spending days full of luxury and a beautiful life. At least that's what I imagined.


 


Then, why is this Princess in front of me wearing military clothes? Is it true that she is the Princess Emir I know? Someone could be disguised as him. If it was like this, then the figure who was attacking him was the royal army. Yeah, could have been. And again, he also did not say it when he saw my face.


 


“Actually Bana’an and Mariander have been in the cold war since a few decades ago. This information should be confidential but since you're already involved, I think you deserve to know.”


 


Whoi, woi, woi, woi! What secret did you say? I'm not fully involved if you hadn't said so.


 


“If I may be honest, I also want to put an end to that spy immediately. But unfortunately, he's much stronger than I thought.”


 


He kept releasing information that I didn't want to listen to as he continued to move around following me, avoiding the explosion that occurred.


 


Is this woman stupid or what? Do you really feel sorry for dragging me into this? If you're sorry, you should shut up and kill the spy!


 


I know that Princess Emir is a tomboy, but not this extreme either. I doubt this woman is the Princess Emir.


 


“Sorry for my sassness, but rather than Princess Emir wasting time informing me, I hope Princess Emir immediately kills the spy. If this continues, Mr. Princess Emir and I will run out of beach spots. Has Princess Emir forgotten that I have no control? I can't float.”


 


“Ah, yes, I forgot.”


 


Okay, fix! You are not the Princess Emir! The Emir princess I knew almost never forgot such little details. No, revision, this is not a small detail for me.


 


Does this mean the person who attacked us is a person from the kingdom? If working with ‘Tuan Putri Emir’, there is a possibility that I will be considered to cooperate with the palace intruder. However, if the assailant is indeed a royal, then he is banged up because of the origin of the attack. Here there are civilians, commoners. If I don't fight, then I'll die.


 


However, if this woman really is the Princess Emir, I must help her. However, once again, I doubt she is the Princess Emir.


 


All righty! Right now, the most important thing is that I survive. After that, I just thought about how to deal with the woman who claimed to be ‘Tuan Putri Emir’ this.


 


“Once a game I apologize if considered presumptuous. However, could the Emir Princess make that person come closer?”


 


“I think it's impossible. He continued to use the attack with arrows. His arrows would explode when coming into contact with something. And again, I myself am also a long-range attack user, I have no advantage if I make it close.”


 


“Then, Can Princess Emir slow down the movement of her arrows? I will do something so that the arrow cannot be used.”


 


“Hah? What are you going to do?”


 


“It will be difficult to explain. But I hope that the Emir Princess trusts me. I have a plan.”


 


Normally, I wouldn't speak in such a loud tone when I'm dealing with the royal family. If I had done it in public, or even in front of one noble, I would have been sentenced to whipping or even death. However, there is no certainty that this woman is really the Princess Emir.


 


“Alright, let me try.”


 


After getting confirmation from ‘Mr Emir’ Princess, I touched the side of the motorcycle tank and took out a small folding knife. I got off the motorcycle and moved to the front ‘Mr Princess Emir’.


 


“What are you doing? You can die.”


 


“Mr Emir's daughter moderately slows down her arrows. Let me take care of the rest.”


 


“Ba–good.”


 


Although it sounds like she is in doubt with my words, but at this time, the ‘Mr Emir’ Princess has no other choice.


 


I took off the gloves, put them in my jacket pocket, opened the folding knife, and slashed both my palms. After cleaning the knife with the jacket, I put it in the jacket pocket.


 


Aw, it hurts too. Normally, I just do this by slashing my fingertips. I only slashed my palms like now if things were out of control or guesswork. And, now was a moment that was beyond control and conjecture. So I had to do it.


 


I saw some light. The arrow that glided slightly reflected the light of the lights from around. It seemed, the arrow had already sped towards us.


 


“Now!”


 


“Good!”


 


After I said that, a wall appeared in front of us. He must have used his controls to turn his tank head into a wall.


 


You idiot! If the wall is only protective, not slow it down.


 


Several explosions emerged from behind these walls. However, it seemed, this wall was no ordinary wall. After several explosions, several arrows were seen piercing through this wall. His speed was drastically reduced, as if this wall was a gelatin. Maybe ‘Tuan Putri Emir’ is not too stupid.


 


Quickly, I ran and grabbed some arrows coming towards us. One, two, three, four. I managed to catch four arrows and smeared my blood. I haven't caught the other two arrows yet. The remaining two arrows changed lanes, returning to their owners. In this way, he only had two arrows that could be used.


 


 


“Mr Emir's daughter, please raise her wall so I can see the opponent's reaction.”


 


“Good!”


 


This wall was raised and revealed a figure floating not too far away. Now I could see it clearly, a woman with long black hair who was pigtailed. His green eyes reflect the light of the lamp perfectly. He also wore black and green clothes. On top of his image, he wore a long cargo trouser and a military vest with many pockets.


 


Wait a minute, that face, I think I know her.


 


“Il, Illuvia?”


 


Unknowingly, I spoke my mind. His face was similar to Illuvia. True – is really similar. However, finally, I found one thing that confirmed that he was not Illuvia. Although covered by a thick military vest, it was seen a pair of mountains on his chest. Illuvia was just a plain, there were no mountains on her chest.


 


Even so, I can't deny that his face is very similar to Illuvia, perhaps a little older. Ah, it doesn't matter now.


 


In both of my hands were four arrows nearly a meter long. Rather than arrows, this thing is more accurately called a peg. Or the spear sheet, javelin? Yes, from now on I will call it a spear.


 


There were two spears floating near the woman. If these six spears are his weapons then I have the upper hand. However, if in the pocket of the women's pants there are many small spears, maybe I can say pegs, then I'm done. I won't be able to catch all those pegs.


 


“Who are you? What have you done to my gun?”


 


Oh, I don't think he started the conversation. Good, in this way, the possibility of me getting out alive is still open.


 


“I am one of Schneider's agents in this kingdom,” I started my boasting. “And as for what I did to your weapon, I have no obligation to answer you, right?”


 


I was lucky to be wearing a full face helmet again, so he didn't know my face. After this, I had to change my helmet again. If I put on this helmet again, someone might realize that the figure behind this helmet is Lugalgin Alhold.


 


“Agent Schneider? Do you expect me to believe in your bullshit? I've never seen a Schneider agent wearing only formal pants and a leather jacket, not igni.”


 


“Are you sure I'm not wearing igni?”


 


I pulled out my best prank. Since the pants and leather jacket covered all parts of the body, then I showed as if underneath were attached igni clothes.


 


“Better you worry about your condition. Do you think I'm alone?”


 


I pressed my tone and let a small portion of the bloodthirsty aura out.


 


The woman squinted her eyes and looked around, trying to confirm my words. No matter how hard you look, you won't find them because they're just bullshits.


 


“Do you think it's not strange? A man appeared in the middle of the night, between the fights of the two of you, when as far as the eye could see there was not a single civilian? The answer is, we have already made a barricade some distance from here, preventing civilians from entering this place.”


 


Lying, lying, lying! Of course this place is deserted. The toll road we are on at the moment is on the edge of the city with a thick legend. Around this road, there have been many accidents in the past so that people become hesitant if they have to go through here. Actually, the cause of many accidents that occur is because of other hail, not mystical things. There is a misplacement of street lighting that makes the bend in this place look like a straight road. And I hope he doesn't know this fact, very hopeful.


 


“So you said that this is according to your plan? But it seems that the Princess behind you disagrees.”


 


Without needing to look, I can surmise ‘Mr Emir’ Princess must have shown her surprise at my words.


 


“Of course he disagrees. Don't you know that we, agent Schneider, have only received direct orders from His Majesty the King and only His Majesty the King knows what we're doing. In fact, the Empress did not know anything about our activities.”


 


“Hmm...”.


 


He still looks doubtful. But it's starting to convince me.


 


“Then why don't you kill me right now? Is there a reason why you didn't? Or maybe, you can't? Especially trying to buy time so far.” the woman grinned.


 


He's trying to fight my bullshit. Hehe, starting from here is a mental fight.


 


“And what makes you think we can't afford to do it? We've disabled four of your weapons. You don't even know how we do it, do you? For the reason why we don't kill you right now, we have no obligation to answer.”


 


He kept staring into my eyes. I also kept looking into his eyes.


 


At first glance, this condition was not favorable to him. There was a party that suddenly came and was able to cripple his weapon. He didn't know how I crippled his weapon so he didn't dare to make up his mind.


 


I kept looking into his eyes without taking a look at him at all. If I take my eyes off or take my eyes off, for a moment, he'll realize that I'm just bragging and attacking.


 


“Alright, I don't know what your plan is to release me, but I'll accept your offer and back off.”


 


I'm win.


 


“If you wish you could find my hiding place by following me after this, then you are wrong. Princess,” the woman set her eyes on the person behind me. “Tonight you were lucky.”


 


After saying that, the woman drifted higher and higher until I could no longer see her. Speech correct. If he floated high enough to go in one direction, no matter who was on the ground, that person would not be able to follow him. Although there are radars that detect movement in the sky, I doubt objects as large as bodies will be detected by radar.


 


“Hahh,” ‘Mr Princess Emir’ sighed. “I'm saved. Thank you, Lugalgin. I didn't know you were agent–eh?”


 


I immediately turned around and moved aside ‘Master Princess Emir’, making her unable to finish the sentence in surprise. I threw out the four spears in hand, kicked her legs from behind, and strangled her neck with my left hand. As soon as he lost his balance, I directly pressed his body onto the concrete path and sat on top of his body. Both my legs held both of her hands. The left hand strangled his neck, making sure my hand made contact with the skin on his neck that was not covered by Igni.


 


“Now answer my question, Who are you?”
