A VR Travel Story That Makes You Want to Be Humiliated

Chapter 285: By Wire (9)

... Sister?

The unexpected words that came out of Flora's mouth made me unable to keep up with the situation for a moment.

Sister?

All of Flora's older sisters must have died, right?

No. I thought she was dead, but she was actually alive.

Isn't that why we were heading to the front line in the first place?

But, if she were Flora's older sister, her hair would have to be pink, right?

No, no. Flora has also dyed her hair pitch black now.

If you want to hide the fact that you are the royal family of the Kingdom of Veil for some reason, the easiest and most effective way is to dye your characteristic pink hair first.

It won't work.

Because I'm confused, I keep remembering only the obvious facts.

For now, she decided to clear her head and observe the situation.

"... Flora?"

The woman, looking at Flora with disbelieving eyes, spoke with difficulty.

We never told you Flora's name.

I just told my name for the first time to a pervert I've known since yesterday, and there was no way the woman I saw for the first time knew Flora.

On the other hand, if she wasn't seeing her for the first time, there was a possibility that she knew Flora.

For example, Flora's family.

Moisture began to form in Flora's eyes as she looked at the woman.

"Sister!!"

"Flora!!"

"Ugh?!"

Flora ran down the stairs and jumped straight into her woman's arms.

The woman also opened her arms and accepted Flora.

Asil, who was being dragged by Flora, almost fell down the stairs, causing her to panic, but no one paid any attention.

Everyone in the restaurant on the first floor of the inn was watching the reunion of the two sisters.

As she was looking at the two black-haired beautiful girls embracing, she suddenly realized the identity of the discomfort she felt when she first saw the girl.

Rather than a feeling of discomfort, it would have been more accurate to say it was a sense of deja vu.

It was the same face as the face of Flora's older sister, Aila, who appeared in the flashback room I glanced at after the subjugation of the cult was over.

Her impression was a little different from then, and the color of her hair was also different, so she didn't notice it when she first saw her, but she thought it was Aila and when she looked closely, she was definitely her. She still had the same face she had seen back then.

The fact that Flora saw it all at once must be a connection between her family.

It was a scene that warmed her heart.

?

After a touching family reunion, Aila took us through the second floor and up to the third floor.

This is because I didn't think it was something worth talking about on the first floor where anyone could see it.

Aila's room had the best view on the third floor.

When you look out the window, you can clearly see the market, and when you leave the door, you can see the restaurant on the first floor beyond the railing.

At the same time, soundproofing measures were taken to prevent noise from the first floor from reaching the room, so it could be called a suite.

Pervert called Aila her boss. Indeed, once she becomes the leader, it may be normal for her to stay in a room like this.

Our party three and Aila pervert. With five people crowded into one room, it felt a little cramped.

Where should I start talking? While I was thinking about it, pervert made a loud noise.

"Ah!"

"Wow, I'm surprised. What is it, Liam? "Did I eat something wrong?"

Despite Aila's harsh treatment, Pervert persevered and said what he had to say.

"Right! I felt like I had seen that girl somewhere; she had a face that resembled the leader!"

"What are you talking about. Didn't you hear me call you sister? Since they are sisters, it's natural that they look alike."

"No, that's not it! "Until just a moment ago, there was a ridiculous misunderstanding!"

"Misunderstanding?"

Ayla looked at her incomprehensibly and turned to me.

"Sorry. My child is like this sometimes. You were the person he was talking to earlier, right? "Can you tell me what you're talking about?"

This is what I was talking about earlier. Clearly...

"Did you mean that the pervert was trying to seduce Flora with her old comments?"

"..."

A moment of silence.

"Liam?! "You, our Flora!"

"No, no! "I just said I thought I'd seen it somewhere before!"

"It's ancient!"

If I just kept watching like this, it would quickly become a mess.

It seemed like fun, but I didn't think the story would progress, so I cut it off.

"It was about why you are so nice to us. "I have been indebted to you in many ways since yesterday."

"Oh. Okay? Good job. "I will pay that debt for you."

"It's okay. "If she is the leader's younger sister, she cannot be said to be a stranger to me either, so I guess I should say that she is natural."

"It would be nice if I were debt-free."

After that, we chatted for a while.

Starting with a simple statement, Aila bursts out laughing, saying, 'But Soira, didn't you call Liam pervert?'

Asil exclaimed, 'It's a great coincidence that they both dyed their hair the same black.'

It wasn't a long chat, but it was enough to lighten the mood.

As we became a little more familiar with each other, important conversations began to emerge in earnest.

The first to speak up was Flora.

In some ways, I probably had the most questions, but I was proud that I had persevered so far.

"But sister, how...?" That... Hmm... "

"How is she alive?"

"Yes. I definitely... That day... "

"Okay. Flora probably didn't know. Let's see. Where should she start talking... "

Aila slowly went back through her memories and explained.

The day the Kingdom of Vale fell.

Flora's family let only Flora escape through the emergency exit.

That was the last time Flora remembered seeing her family.

And after that.

Flora's siblings all scattered and ran away.

It was to disperse the demon king's army in all directions so that Flora would not be chased.

The siblings' strategy was exactly the same.

The Demon King's army, which had already raised an army to invade the Kingdom of Vale, did not have the strength to chase after the siblings who were scattered in different directions.

In fact, the operation was so effective that some of the siblings who had risked their lives and dispersed were even able to escape safely.

"... So?"

"Everyone scattered and jumped out. Succeded. The end."

"I don't think it's something that can be summarized so simply... "

It's easy to say, but it was clear that he barely survived in a hellish situation.

Flora must have guessed the hardship, as she snuggled into her sister's arms.

"Sister... "

"Yes, yes."

Eila also hugged Flora tightly and stroked her long hair.

I left the two sisters to continue to feel the sisterly love, and I asked the next question I was curious about.

"But why are you hiding your identity? "I think you can gain a lot by revealing that you are royal."

If you just think of what comes to mind right now, you could claim the succession of the Kingdom of Vale and gain ownership of the castle, and you could also gain support from countries that were allied with the Kingdom of Vale.

In fact, I wonder if it is really possible because support is a country-to-country relationship, but it doesn't seem like there is a chance at all.

In any case, despite the benefits, Aila thoroughly hid the fact that she was a member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Vale.

Even though a long time had passed since the fall of the kingdom, he did not claim legitimacy and said he would rebuild the Kingdom of Veil, but instead hid his identity by dyeing his hair.

It would have been strange if he had decided to live in hiding, but he was making a name for himself as a mercenary but was only hiding the fact that he was a royal.

"..."

Aila didn't answer any of my questions and just quietly stroked Flora.

It's not that she didn't want to answer, but she seemed to be choosing the right words to get her words out.

Only after she had quietly pondered for a while did Aila's story begin.

"There is a traitor."

Even though they may not even be aware that they have betrayed them, Aila opened her mouth like that.

The Kingdom of Vale, which has been at the forefront of humanity for decades, had one measure in place in case of emergency.

The idea was not to gather all the royal family in one place.

It was a measure to ensure that even if the royal castle fell and the national flag was broken, the royal family elsewhere would inherit the throne and continue the Kingdom of Vale.

In fact, there have been several cases where we have overcome crises that were close to destruction through this measure.

Flora vaguely thought, 'Everyone is busy working here and there,' but there was actually a meaning to it.

But in the end, the day the Kingdom of Vale fell.

For some reason, this measure was not followed that day.

The royal family, who were supposed to have left for another city, were unable to leave due to problems with the procession, and the royal family who were supposed to arrive at the castle a week late were given the wrong date and came back early.

Each one may have been nothing more than a coincidence, but several of these problems overlapped, and at the moment when all the royal family gathered in the capital, even the executives of the Demon King's Army showed up and were hit with an all-out attack.

No matter how you look at it, it was difficult to consider it a coincidence.

Moreover, it was even more suspicious as the invading Demon King Army executive was notorious for using mind control magic.

"... That probably happened because the people who were manipulated by him caused problems all at once."

"Mind control... The devil... "

After talking up to that point, Aila tilted the kettle placed in the room and poured water into his mouth as his throat burned.

She looked quite exciting for a princess.

Taking advantage of the brief pause in the conversation, I thought about something else for a moment.

A member of the Demon King's Army who specializes in mind control magic.

The academy fell into hypnosis due to the devil's army.

... Somehow, I didn't think I could simply dismiss it as someone else's story.

It was a story involving Flora's family, so it wasn't someone else's story to begin with.
