Reincarnation of the Demon King into a Beautiful Silver-Haired Girl

Chapter 23: An Invitation

Bellina Arna has returned to the capital to meet the sudden invitation of her parents, the king and queen of France.

At the dinner of her teacher Jeanne d'Arc, she became her student due to her status in the kingdom, but Jeanne still treated her as a disciple without any hassles or complaints.

"By the way, father, why do I have to leave the academy?"

"Actually a few days ago the constatinovel had been destroyed, though we are not involved in the seizure of the territory what is surprising is that the culprit recognized himself as the new demon lord of arrogance."

Bellina turned her gaze towards the silent Jeanne, as long as she was appointed a Great Saint she never opened her eyes again. The white ornament of her pastor's dress had been attached to her almost she did not look like a knight she had always displayed in the past.

He even decided not to marry anyone.

Although his eyes were closed he could still tell how people were expressing themselves, their movements and everything else in front of him, sometimes Bellina wished that she could be similar to him, a person with an aura of wisdom, elegance that cannot be forged in a short time.

"Sometimes this is the case, the position of the demon king is always passed on to other demons" Jeanne replied.

"So, did you ask me to go after him?"

"For now it is not necessary."

The king gave a hand-drawn poster featuring a little girl with a fox mask and a nine tail behind her, even for Bellina she wouldn't know that the figure inside was the one she wanted to be beheaded the other day.

"If not to go after him then what?"

The turn of the queen to reply.

"There is a round table conference that will be held in five days, we want you to go there as a representative of the French state."

"It's not that it's a heavy thing."

"They're just talking about the demon lord and they suspect us that conspiring with the demon lord of pride."

"That's impossible."

The king took over the conversation.

"This was only their way to bestow their incompetence against the demon king of arrogance to drag the French state into the pursuit of the demon king, actually they asked Miss Jeanne who came but it was very risky there was a possibility they wanted to seize Miss Jeanne who was the only Great Saint who could defeat the demon king of pride for their benefit, for us, Miss Jeanne is the most precious person of her existence, so she can't get out of France."

"I'll take it" replied Bellina.

Just as the door of the room opened a man walked in casually, he had bowl hair with a bronze sword on his back.

Bellina seemed surprised by her existence which she had obviously known for quite a long time, they were one class and barely ever talked to each other.

"Arthur."

"Yo, I actually went to the academy because your father asked you to keep an eye on you."

"How can a commoner do this job?"

"He's actually a son of nobility, if he wanted to he should be king of Great Britain."

"Eh?"

Bellina was clearly more surprised by the fact, while Arthur put his shoulders limp.

"It's just the past, I'm now just a commoner, in exchange for you letting my mother live peacefully in her own country I'm glad to be able to help the kingdom."

"We can't believe it any more he might be weaker than me and not deserve to be my bodyguard" the princess shouted at him.

"Your words are more toxic than I remember in class, is it all just a mask?"

Bellina retreated on that bold statement, before another word entered her ear.

"How about we both fight, oh by the way Miss Jeanne is so pretty can we have tea together?"

"That sounds good."

"Teacher?"

Jeanne cleared her throat once and added.

"You two have just come so it's better to rest before the duel."

"I'm glad to take it."

Arthur came 30 minutes early.
