"They're fine...." Ilassa said dryly. "Mother just has some parting words for Koyoi."

~*~*~*~

"Lady Koyoi....as important as I'm sure it is for you to see Druella, I'm entrusting you with the safety of the next queen...."

"Y-you mean Ilassa-hime, my lord?"

The Demon Lord nodded.

"I've made my decision. Mari has shown initiative at times, but I think she's prone to taking unnecessary risks. Palomina has the disposition for the task, but I sense her demonic aura is weakening. With all of Ilassa's work in postwar diplomacy, she's the natural choice. And as such, she and I venturing to the human territories at the same time could be courting disaster."

"My Lord....!" Koyoi said as dropped to her knees and bowed, her forehead touching the toes of the Demon Lord's footwear. "I do not know what to say..."

"For now, you say nothing. Not even Ilassa needs to know immediately..."

"H-hai."
