Chapter 10: Celestine
The world of Kuroinu was a beautiful world when it came to the surfaces, in the middle was destruction, hate, human Slavery, and the people being piece's of shit, there was 7 kingdom each run by each of Celestine Princess Knight, the one to run them was one God or will A Goddes Of Rebon her name was Celestain.
The Goddes was a Elf Girl or maybe a high elf, she was beautiful and lovely and the most kindest person in this world, but someone who trust the wrong people.
Celestine was in her bat as she was enjoying this, not only that she was done with as she started to move she then see saw her maids as they are blushing seeing her body, she was smiling and looked at her and seeing this Celestain smiled, she wears her normal outfit and walked out as she did, she seat down as she started to hear the sound of the people praying to her.
"Miss Celestine can I talk to you about something".
Celestine looked up as she saw who it was. "Oh Maia what is it"
Maia looked at Celestine, as she kneeled down, when she first came here she meet Claudia they once again had a small fight.
Maia looked at Celestine. "It is about the Neutral Area"
Celestine then looked Maia seeing her new armour. "Oh your weairng new armour, I didn't knew our blacksmith have made new Degine".
Maia blinked as she spoke. "So um...yeah can I start on what happened after you sent to me dungeon mission in the Neutral area"
Celestine then looked at her. "Go ahead"
One half explanation later.
Celestine looked at her. "What do you mean Great Red is gone"
One full Explanation later
Celestine stared at Maia, her disbelief growing with each passing second. "A small village run by a slime... a high spirit... and human-looking goblins?" She raised an eyebrow, her serene composure faltering slightly. "Maia, that sounds... improbable, even for this world."
Maia, kneeling before Celestine, nodded earnestly. "I know it sounds insane, but I swear to you, it's the truth. The Neutral Area has... changed. There's something powerful happening there, something unnatural. Great Red's disappearance is just the start of it."
Celestine took a deep breath, her mind racing. She trusted Maia, one of her most skilled knights, but the story was too outlandish. The image of a peaceful village governed by such strange figures clashed violently with the reality she knew of the world of Kuroinu—one of slavery, corruption, and suffering.
"Do you believe this... slime poses any threat to our kingdom?" Celestine asked cautiously, her eyes narrowing.
Maia hesitated for a moment. "I... I don't know, my lady. The slime didn't seem aggressive, but there's an aura around it—something old, something powerful. It's as if the balance of the Neutral Area is shifting around him."
Celestine stood up, pacing slowly as she considered Maia's words. The Neutral Area had long been a volatile region, its governance fragile. The appearance of a new force there, especially one that could rival beings like Great Red, was troubling.
"I will need to see this for myself," Celestine finally said, her voice firm. "If this slime and its village truly exist, we must determine whether they are a danger or potential allies."
Maia stood up, saluting her goddess. "I'll prepare a small escort, just to be safe."
Celestine nodded, her mind already turning toward the preparations. "Do that. And Maia... no more wild stories about drinking. I need you sober and focused."
Maia smirked slightly, her serious expression faltering for a brief moment. "Of course, my lady. I'll stick to water from now on."
Celestine just sigehd. "So does the slime has a name"
She doubts it, any Creator name was always a problem, especially in the Neutral Area the one piece so different"
Maia just looked at her. "Yes, also he did his name is Aiden Red....also he doesn't want to meet you yeat".
Celestine raised an eyebrow, the hint of a smile tugging at the corner of her lips. "Aiden Red? An unusual name for a slime... But I suppose this is no ordinary creature, is it?"
Maia shook her head, her expression serious. "Not at all, my lady. He possesses powers beyond what I've ever seen. And..." she hesitated before continuing, "he seems... hesitant. He mentioned that he's not ready to meet you yet."
Celestine leaned back in her chair, fingers tapping the armrest in thought. "He doesn't want to meet me? That's... unexpected. Most would be eager to curry favor with a goddess."
"From what I gathered," Maia added carefully, "he's not concerned with titles or power. He seems more focused on protecting his village and staying out of larger conflicts. At least for now."
Celestine sighed, her curiosity piqued even more. A powerful being, strong enough to rule a village, yet reluctant to involve himself in the politics of the world. It was a rarity. The Neutral Area was notorious for chaos, and anyone with strength usually sought to dominate or manipulate those weaker. Yet, this Aiden Red was different.
"Interesting," Celestine muttered, her mind spinning with possibilities. "A slime with such restraint, avoiding conflict... That alone makes him a rare anomaly in this world. But if he has no desire for power or conquest, why establish a village at all? What is he waiting for?"
Maia shrugged. "I couldn't say, my lady. But from what I saw, the goblins and wolves under his rule are loyal to him, and the village thrives despite the dangers of the Neutral Area."
Celestine stood, her decision made. "Prepare the royal escort, but keep it small. I want to visit this village myself—see Aiden Red with my own eyes. Whether he wants to meet me or not, I have no intention of ignoring something this... intriguing."
Maia bowed. "As you wish, Lady Celestain. I'll make sure everything is ready."
As Maia left the room, Celestine's thoughts remained on Aiden Red. She wondered what kind of being would choose to hide away in a small village rather than seize control of the region. Was he truly uninterested in power, or was he biding his time?
"Whatever the case," Celestine murmured to herself, "I intend to find out."
Celestine then looked out of the window as she saw the city. "It looks like this world is Changing...I wonder if Olga has notice this as well...my old friend hope we can we friend again and end this war for good".
Meanwhile Maia was walking through the castle, as then she saw one of her other 7 princess Knight, as they saw Eachother, the knight had pink hair and wears a white dress that enhanced her curves and beauty's, her name was Prime Fiorire
She is Alicia's younger cousin and a princess with a lovely appearance and gentle characteristics. Despite being Alicia's cousin, Prim views her more as an older sister, and referred to her as such. Prim is the second princess knight to be captured shortly after Alicia's surrender. She is timid and reserve but that doesn't mean she is easy bought to tears, she was the one to run the trade and business rote for the all of this kingdom.
Prim looked at Maia. "I um Maia sama, i didn't expect to see you today"
Maia just went to the girl and Petted her head. "I see you still not over your shyness... anyway is Luu Luu here or she is back at her Kingdom".
Prim blushed slightly at the head pat, a faint smile forming as she glanced up at Maia. "I'm trying, Maia-sama... It's just... you know how it is." Her voice was soft, almost trembling with her natural timidness. "As for Luu Luu, she's still back in her kingdom. There were some issues with trade routes, and she wanted to handle them personally."
Maia nodded, understanding. Luu Luu, another of the seven princess knights, was known for her hands-on approach, particularly when it came to the defense and security of her kingdom. "I see. Well, that's typical of her. Always making sure everything runs smoothly on her end."
Prim hesitated for a moment, then spoke again, her tone curious. "Maia-sama, I've been hearing... strange things. About the Neutral Area. Is it true that a new force is rising there? Something about a slime, and..." She trailed off, unsure of how much she should ask.
Maia let out a small sigh. "Yes, it's true. A slime named Aiden Red, actually. But he's not like any other creature we've seen. He's strong, but he's... different. He's not trying to seize power or enslave anyone. It's strange, honestly."
Prim tilted her head, intrigued. "A slime that doesn't want power? That is unusual. Do you think he's dangerous?"
Maia shook her head. "I don't think he's dangerous in the typical sense, but his power is undeniable. He has a village now, filled with goblins, wolves, and who knows what else. Lady Celestain herself seems interested in meeting him."
Prim blinked in surprise. "Lady Celestain wants to meet him? That's... wow. I can't imagine how she feels about a creature like that rising in the Neutral Area."
"Neither can I," Maia admitted. "But we'll soon find out. We're heading there soon. Maybe this Aiden Red can be a new ally, or maybe he's just biding his time for something greater. Either way, I think things are going to change soon—perhaps faster than any of us expect."
Prim nodded thoughtfully, her usual shy demeanor replaced by genuine curiosity. "I hope it's for the better. The world could use some stability... and maybe a bit of kindness."
Maia smiled, a rare softness in her expression. "You're right, Prim. Let's hope this is the change we need."
Prim them looker at Maia. "Oh maybe I ask what you need for Luu Luu"
Maia looked at her. "I was hoping to get her there Aiden need help with the building in his town and the last time how he proves it was"
Maia remember the incident that all the memeber of her knight the toilet explosion.
Maia looked at pirm. "Something".
Prim blinked, a little confused by the sudden shift in Maia's expression as she trailed off. "The... toilet explosion?" she asked hesitantly, trying to piece together Maia's unfinished thought.
Maia groaned slightly, rubbing her forehead. "Yes, that. Let's just say Aiden's town-building skills need... improvement. He's powerful, sure, but when it comes to managing infrastructure, he's a disaster waiting to happen. The last time we visited, there was a plumbing issue that resulted in... well, an explosion. It wasn't pretty."
Prim couldn't help but stifle a giggle, covering her mouth with her hand. "That sounds... eventful."
"Eventful is one word for it," Maia sighed. "That's why I need Luu Luu's help. Her skills with management and construction could be a real asset to Aiden's village. I want to make sure things are done properly this time. Plus, Luu Luu has always been good at dealing with complicated situations, and Aiden's village is... well, complicated."
Prim nodded, understanding. "I'll send word to Luu Luu and let her know what's happening. I'm sure she'd be glad to help, especially if it means avoiding more... explosive incidents."
Maia smiled gratefully. "Thanks, Prim. I appreciate it. Hopefully, with Luu Luu's help, we can get Aiden's village running smoothly and avoid any more... surprises."
Prim giggled again, then gave Maia a small nod. "I'll go make the arrangements right away." With that, she hurried off down the hall, leaving Maia standing there, silently praying that Luu Luu could indeed fix the mess Aiden had unknowingly created in the Neutral Area.
As Maia watched Prim go, she couldn't shake the feeling that things were going to get even more chaotic before they settled. "A slime with godlike powers, a village full of goblins, and now we're calling in Luu Luu to save the day. What could possibly go wrong?" she muttered to herself, already anticipating the next inevitable disaster.
Meanwhile with Aiden, Radomira was just looking at Aiden village
Radomira just looked at Aiden. "This doesn't seem so bad love"
Aiden moved his head to look at her. "Yeah it may look good but are".
Tamamo finished his sentence. "One storm away from pure destruction".
Radomira raised an eyebrow, looking between Aiden and Tamamo. "Really? It looks so peaceful and quaint. What exactly are you worried about?"
Aiden sighed. "It's not the peace I'm worried about. It's the fact that the entire village is being held together by sheer luck and makeshift repairs. The goblins try their best, but, well, they aren't exactly master builders. Every time it rains, we're one bad storm away from everything collapsing."
Tamamo nodded in agreement. "The last storm nearly flooded half the village, and that was only a light drizzle. If we get hit by a real storm, it's not going to end well."
Radomira tilted her head, a playful smirk forming on her lips. "Well, love, looks like you need some professional help. I'm not sure you can slime your way out of this one."
Aiden groaned. "That's why we've called for Luu Luu. She's the best in construction and infrastructure. If anyone can help fix this place before it all falls apart, it's her."
Radomira giggled softly and placed a hand on Aiden's slime body. "You really have been busy, haven't you? Who would've thought a slime could run a village?"
Aiden gave a small, exasperated shrug. "It's not as easy as it looks, trust me. But hopefully, with Luu Luu's help, we can make this village something a bit more... stable."
Tamamo looked over the village again, her fox ears twitching. "If nothing else, it'll be a relief to stop worrying about the whole place sinking into the ground."
Radomira gave a warm smile. "Don't worry, darling. With me by your side, we'll make sure this village doesn't just survive—it'll thrive."
Aiden sighed, feeling a bit more reassured. "Let's just hope Luu Luu arrives soon... before we find ourselves rebuilding from scratch."
Radomira looked at Aiden. "Don't be so negative, it is not like the village is going to almost get destroyed"
Tamamo and Aiden quoted at they remember the toilet explosion incident
Aiden then looked back at her. "About that"
Aiden sighed, exchanging a glance with Tamamo as they both recalled the infamous toilet explosion incident.
Radomira raised an eyebrow, noticing their reaction. "What? What happened?"
Aiden shifted uncomfortably. "Well... let's just say the last time we tried improving the village's infrastructure, things didn't exactly go as planned."
Tamamo chimed in, trying not to laugh. "Yeah, we thought upgrading the plumbing would be a good idea. Instead, we ended up with half the village covered in... well, let's just say it wasn't water."
Radomira blinked in confusion, then a look of horror dawned on her face. "You mean...?"
Aiden nodded. "Yup. The whole place almost got blown to bits because of one bad pipe installation. We're lucky it didn't level the entire village."
Radomira stared at them both in disbelief before breaking into a soft laugh. "Well, it seems like you really do need some help. But don't worry, love, I'm sure with proper guidance, this time things will go smoothly."
Aiden smiled weakly. "Yeah, I hope so. Just... let's keep Luu Luu away from the toilets, alright?"
Radomira chuckled, squeezing Aiden's slime body gently. "Agreed. Let's focus on the rest of the village first."
