Reincarnated Princess Wishes To Avoid Death-Chapter 552

The Circumstances of the Fire Clan

Elder exclaimed Aima, staring in wonder at Roufas unexpected words. The female attendant also couldnt help but stand up in surprise.

Roufa addressed the two of them in a calm and collected voice.

Theres no point in being stubborn. Our condition has reached a point where we cannot handle it on our own. So, I would like to accept help from the people who have come here for the sake of friendship. Her Highness Princess Mia did not try to convince me with words about the rational benefits that she understood well. Instead, she waited for me to open my heart.

And then, Roufa turned her gaze to Mia.

On receiving such a warm and kind gaze, Mia thought.

If things continue like this, I might be able to avoid Ludwigs lecture!

Mia let out a sigh of relief.

Ludwig was not simple-minded enough to be convinced that everything was in order based solely on a good result. However, if Mia could achieve a favourable outcome, she could present a strong counterargument in her defence.

Suddenly she saw a glimmer of hope amidst the despair. Mia was so delighted that she began to listen carefully.

She shouldnt let her guard down now. She needed to listen to what Roufa was saying carefully and ensure that the problem was solved because only then could she claim a favourable outcome.

Everyone, I would like you all to please listen carefully to how we ended up in this predicament.

And then Roufa began talking.

Do you know what occurred between the Fire clan and the twelve clans of the Equestrian Kingdom?

We heard that the clan was forced out of the Equestrian Kingdom because they began to learn techniques to manipulate wolves.

Roufa nodded in response to Mias words and continued speaking.

It is said that Ka Seima, Chief of the Fire clan, at one point in time brought along a person who knew the technique of controlling wolves.The person was called a Priestess and she carried with her a copy of a book.

A copy of a book?

Rafina whispered. Mia also couldnt help but recall a specific book.

The Book of Those that Crawl the Earth

It wasnt until much later that I learned the correct name of the book. Ever since I can remember, it has simply been called The Book of Serpents. I had thought that the book with a picture of a serpent on the cover looked impressive.

Please excuse-me, Roufa-sama, but did you ever read that book?

Roufa shook her head in response to Rafinas question.

There was never a moment when the book left the Priestess hands. Even if I had the opportunity to get my hands on the book, I cant read. Thats because, originally speaking, we people of the Equestrian Kingdom are a clan who dont use the written word.

After hearing this, Mia recalled that the Equestrian Kingdom was a culture that did not rely on writing. Instead, they used historical songs to pass down their history to future generations.

Mia recalled the Forest clans Chief saying this and nodded involuntarily.

Hmm. Does this mean that even this historical story is passed down in the form of a song?

Yes. Indeed it is as you say. And the song goes

Roufa seemed a little uncomfortable. Perhaps she was shy?

Look, if I havent had a drink, I cannot sing comfortably.

She was one cheerful granny!

Mia recalled Roufas disposition from the night before and agreed.

She definitely seems like the kind of person who wants to sing with good feelings after getting inebriated.

Well, setting that aside.

Several generations changed, yet the Priestess always remained with that book.

Also, at any given time, she was always with the clan chief and continued to impart to him the technique of controlling the wolves.

I see. Its not that all the members of the Fire clan can use the wolf controlling technique. It is something that only the clan chief can use. Oh, then how come Aima-san can?

Mia turned her gaze towards Aima.

I um, had a little interest No, actually I was worried about my brother and wanted to make sure that the technique was not lost in case something happened to him, so I listened secretly. Hmm. It was definitely not because I thought the little warrior wolf cub was cute or anything

And so Aima puffed her chest with pride.

Mia looked at Aima with a heartwarming gaze.

Hmm. However, it does seem that the Serpent Priestess was involved after all. For The Book of Those that Crawl the Earth to appear Arent we delving into the very depths of enemy territory.

The Chief and the Priestess would occasionally leave the village together. They would take one or two young people with them, and sometimes the young people wouldnt return for a while. When I was young, I wondered what they were up to, but since the young people would often come back with delicious gifts, I thought they must be doing something good.

They were definitely doing some dangerous things after going out!

Thats what Mia thought, but she remained silent for the time being. After all, Mia was someone who was good at reading the room.

It was five years ago when a change occurred in my clan. The current Chief Ka Maku went out with Priestess and brought back a young girl with him. The girl was injured and unconscious. When she woke up she introduced herself like this.

Roufa surveyed everyones faces before finally fixing her gaze on Abel, and spoke in a solemn tone.

Valentina Remno, the First Princess of the Remno Kingdom, is what she said.

The moment Abel heard that name, he twitched and his shoulders shook.
