“Listening to you, what a rude creature!”

“An insult to the princess will not be tolerated! Prepare yourself!!”

Swords and staves pointed at Lady Ulrika.
She, however, remained at her own pace.

“You’ve got spirit! You’ve got energy! That’s a good thing!!”

Crunch, crunch… crunch, crunch…

“I can’t believe you’re still eating cookies!”

“Insolent girl. She must want a painful lesson!”

The young ladies only grew louder, watching her chew.
Then the girl who had named herself third princess spoke, quietly.

“Everyone, put your weapons away.”

“But, Princess…”

“Ganging up to hurt a child like this would only look pathetic, wouldn’t it?”

At the third princess’s order, the young ladies reluctantly sheathed their weapons.

“Besides, not knowing who I am means you must have lived in some terribly backwater place. Poor country girl. I’ll forgive you. Fufu.”

“The princess is so kind. Still, I wonder what countryside she came from? Pfft.”

“It’s unkind to laugh. Hee hee…”

They laughed at Lady Ulrika. She kept eating cookies.
Crunch, crunch… crunch, crunch… Continue reading →

A pack of monsters in front of me.
Five combat magitech dolls. Even veteran adventurers are said to have a hard time handling that many without a party.

Facing something like that, my body shakes.
I’m scared. I want to run right now. Tears are about to come.
This is not an enemy a mere town girl should be taking on just because she was handed a weapon.
The sheer unreality of it chills me through to the pit of my stomach.
Ahh, I never should have taken that weird request at the Adventurer’s Guild.

Even so.
Behind me, there are still little children.
Kids huddled together, fighting not to cry.
To them, these expressionless monsters lurking in the mansion they snuck into on a test of courage must be a nightmare itself.

I have something I want to protect. People I want to save.
And if this hand holds the power to fight—borrowed or not.

There is no world in which I back down.

Fragments of mirror scattered everywhere catch my reflection.
Long black hair, black eyes. Slight, and short. Even I can see I look unreliable.
That is exactly why I put up a front and smile.

I draw the red-and-white handguns from the holsters at my hips and grip them.
I speak a single word to the ring hanging from a chain at my chest.

“Ring!”
“—Sakura-Drive Ready.”

A familiar, androgynous voice. I answer my reliable partner.

“Ignition!”

~In a Sword-and-Magic Fantasy World, a Town Girl Who Can Use Neither Meets a Pair of Handguns. She Just Wants to Know Where She Came From—Don’t You Dare Call Her a Hero~

“I hereby return your fate to you.”

With that single line, one girl’s story begins to move.

◆ Informal synopsis ◆
A lively long-haired black-haired girl adventuring in another world.
Plenty of fights and food-teasing.
If that sounds like your thing, please read Chapter 0.

◆ Proper synopsis ◆
A world after the Demon King has fallen.
A certain small town. A girl named Ouka, raised in a church where orphans live.

The heroes of salvation, summoned from another world.
Ouka has the same black hair and black eyes as they do—a heretical look, rare in this world—and yet she has always been a bright, forward-looking girl.

Her days are ordinary and unchanging, but she finds happiness in that ordinary life.
The church children she loves, the townspeople who are kind to her.
And above all, the days she spends with Sister Naria, who has been a parent to her, are irreplaceable.

Then, on her fifteenth birthday, a parcel and a letter arrive.

In the parcel: a pair of red-and-white handguns that should not exist in this world, and a small ring engraved with a mysterious language.

And in the letter, a strange line.

“I hereby return your fate to you.”

To get to the bottom of her own birth, and of the meaning of that strange message, she sets out by coach for the royal capital.

This is the story of one ordinary town girl.
Of daily life, of fighting, of cooking, of adventuring, of being given sweets by the people around her.

And, before long, of fairy-tale heroes and an entire country getting pulled in.

A story of days that will not sit still.

Lady Ulrika, in a Pinch!?

The scene shifts to a terrace on the inner courtyard of Romulus Castle.
Soft sunlight poured in. Lady Ulrika sat at a lavish tea table.
Beside her stood a girl in a maid uniform.

“Nice to meet you! As of today I’ve been assigned as Lady Ulrika’s attendant. My name is Olivia. I’m fourteen this year. I’ll do my very best. Please take care of me!”

Olivia, the new attendant, greeted her at full volume.
A cute girl whose brown eyes and hair suited her well.

“Ulrika Demonica Vanillacross. Zenon’s friend, and also the Demon King. A pleasure!”

“The Demon King… So what His Majesty said was true…”

“Hn? Something the matter?”

“No, it’s nothing. I’ll prepare tea. Please wait a moment.”

Olivia worked quickly.
Soon a steaming teacup and a spread of colorful sweets arrived.

“Ohh! They look delicious!”

“Herb tea and cookies. I hope they’re to your taste…”

“I’ll have some at once!”

Crunch, crunch… crunch, crunch…

“They’re delicious! Olivia… is a bit long. Livi, you’ve got a gift for picking sweets!”

“Thank you! Actually I didn’t pick those cookies. I baked them myself.”

“Hoh! Splendid skill. That’s talent.” Continue reading →

From the sound of it it seems hard, but maybe it’s easy once you actually do it. The annoying part doesn’t change, though. Meaning she went out of her way to make it.
I look at Mami. She’s smiling.

“It’s really good.”
“Is it? I’m glad.”

I heard a small sigh of relief. Was she nervous. It’s not like I’d complain when she’s cooking for me.
All right, next is the curry itself…

“What is this. It’s so thick and gloopy.”
“Eh?”

‘Eh?’
‘From the video it looks about standard, I think’
‘What was Master’s curry that Rita-chan ate even like…’

“It was brown water on rice.”

‘O-oh’
‘What is that (confused)’
‘Just hearing it sounds awful’

No, it was good, so I liked it… But this is completely different. If this is what Master had in mind, I can understand why he called it a failed work.
I put it on the rice and try it. The sharp little spiciness is to my taste.

“Anyway, I can say this much.”
“W-what?”
“Master’s curry rice was garbage. No mistake.” Continue reading →

“What is this about school?”

“I don’t understand. Someone explain!”

The nobles were in an uproar.

“School? There’s no way we can let someone this unknown—”

One noble muttered it.
Lady Ulrika caught it at once.

“So it’s no good? That’s a shame… If I can’t go to school, perhaps I’ll destroy this world…”

The nobles’ panic only grew.

“Destroy the world? There’s no way she could!”

“But if it’s the Demon King from the legends, destroying the world would be…”

“The Demon King is a fairy-tale, obviously!”

Tension filled the audience chamber.
Then a huge laugh rang out.

“Ha ha ha! School? The Demon King wants to go to school?”

King Zenon clutched his stomach.
He rose from the throne and walked up to Lady Ulrika, unhurried.

“What? You’re not afraid of me?”

“Afraid? This is interesting. All the more if you’re the real Demon King!”

“Is it! Interesting, is it!!”

“It is! Interesting! Ha ha ha!”

“I see, I see! Ha ha ha!!” Continue reading →

Lady Ulrika Arrives

—THOOM!!—

This was the Kingdom of Romulus.
An old kingdom, even by human-world standards, ringed in rich nature.
Shock ran through its capital, the royal capital Romulus.

The earth shook.
The air trembled.
Dark clouds boiled.

A disaster like a cataclysm struck the whole capital.
Romulus Castle, where the king lived, took the worst of it. Walls peeled; windows shattered to dust.
The castle’s audience chamber filled with screams.

“What was that tremor?”

“An earthquake? A volcano? Some kind of natural disaster!?”

“Out of the way! Move! We have to evacuate!”

The screamers were noblemen in lavish clothes.
Paunches wobbling, they shoved to be first out the door.
Then a commanding voice rose from the throne.

“Calm yourselves. First we confirm the situation!”

The speaker was King Zenon of Romulus.
A king in his prime, marked by silver hair.
His solid composure pulled the nobles back to their senses.
As the chamber settled, a young soldier burst in.

“Your Majesty! Emergency!”

“What is it?”

“Hah… hah… in front of the castle… a… a…”

“A?”

“A Demon King has appeared in front of the castle!!” Continue reading →

Master said there were definitely more men, so honestly this is unexpected.
To tell the truth, either is fine with me. The only man I know is Master, and the only woman I know is the Great Spirit. …Wait, do spirits even have a gender…?
Anyway, both are unknown quantities to me, so I don’t really mind. She seems easy to talk to, and I’m glad about that.

“Rita-chan, you wanted curry rice, right. It’ll be done soon, so wait a bit.”
“Mm.”

Ah, she’s really making it. That’s purely nice.
I don’t know if Mami is good at cooking, but it should be better than Master’s. The ingredients are different to start with. Master even said the ingredients were too bad.
Mami leaves the room. Now, what should I do.

“Witch onee-chan!”
“Mm?”

Chii-chan was still in the room. She’s staring at me. I feel like her eyes are sparkling. Is this that thing they call a look of expectation.

“Can you use magic?”
“Mm. I can.”
“I wanna see!”
“Okay.” Continue reading →

“I’m bored of being Demon King and True Ancestor alike! I want to go to school!!”

This was the Demon King Castle.
A vast castle standing at the heart of the Demon Realm.
Through those fearsome halls rang a voice far too cute to belong there.

“School! I want to go to school~!!”

The speaker was a girl who looked about ten.
In the audience chamber where demons gathered, she sat on the throne, kicking her legs.
She was the peak of demonkind, and master of this castle.
Lady Ulrika, the Demon King.

Her sudden tantrum left the demons at a loss.
The tuxedoed demon at her side tried to soothe her.
Chancellor Zephard, her aide.

“You mustn’t. Lady Ulrika, you are the king of demons, wielder of the strongest power, and the noble True Ancestor of vampires. You must continue to reign as our great Demon King…”

Lady Ulrika would not hear a word of it.

“No! I don’t want to be Demon King or True Ancestor!!” Continue reading →

She looks like a little girl. Inside, she is the strongest Demon King—and a vampire True Ancestor.

That Demon King, Lady Ulrika, seems to have grown bored of the job.
And what caught her interest was… a school for humans!?

“I’m bored of being Demon King and True Ancestor alike!” she declares, and forces a jump into the human world.
Selfish and utterly lacking in common sense, Lady Ulrika throws that world into chaos!!

And so, in a land of swords and magic, the school life (?) of a Demon King who is terribly strong and terribly cute begins.
