A Highest Rank in Another World!

Walking down the main street while being stared at for being completely hidden, the queen and the princesses approached the inn that was next to the adventurers' guild.

When they reached the door, the queen stopped walking and stood there for a while a little reluctantly.

'What if they find out about me? What will happen?' she thought as she built up the courage to enter the inn. 

But since one of her daughters was feeling some pain in her leg, she opened the door and went ahead to get a room as soon as possible so they could rest.

As soon as they entered, they were greeted by a young girl of about 17 who was wearing a dress and an apron. She was a beautiful girl with black cat ears above her head.

"Welcome..." The girl tried to greet them, but she stopped her sentence halfway through as she watched the queen and the princesses somberly enter as they hid. The queen did not answer the girl's greetings and went directly to the counter.

"What can I do for you?" As soon as they approached the counter they were greeted by a slightly older woman who also had cat ears. From her appearance, she appeared to be the mother of the previous girl.

She spoke calmly.

"I would like a room for three people. It could be two beds, one for me and one for my two daughters here." The queen tried to force her voice a little to modify it, since people may have heard her voice before.

She also kept looking down, so the hostess of the inn could not see her face.

The queen silently threw two gold coins on the counter, the woman can do nothing but yield a room for the three.

The queen didn't even bother to hear about the food at the inn and how many days she had "bought" the room. She went straight upstairs to the second floor.

After arriving in the bedroom, the three took off the blankets that were around their bodies.

"Haaa~~ we did it." The queen sighed and sat down on one of the beds. After sitting down she noticed that the quality of the bed did not compare to the one she had in the mansion. But still, it was not something unpleasant.

And the two princesses also threw themselves on the other bed.

One of them started to complain about the pain in her leg and the other one was almost asleep.

But one thing in common was that both of them had their eyes swollen and red from crying so much.

'We got here, but now what? What is the armor going to do?' The queen wondered what the armor was going to do. What would he help them with? Would he help them get out of the country or something?

The queen didn't know if she would accept something like that.

But she decided not to think about it too much for now.

She stood up and put the blanket around her body again.

Because of this the two princesses got up and ran to their mother.

"Are you going to leave?"

"Are you going to abandon us?"

Hearing this the queen smiled at the two and stroked their heads.

"I'm going to go out and buy some clothes, I want you two to stay locked in the bedroom here, okay?" She said with a smile on her face. The two girls looked at each other and then nodded.

"All right, but come back quickly, okay?"

"That's right!  I don't want to be away from you for too long, Mom!"

"Don't worry, it'll be quick. There are lots of stores around here. I didn't want to go out, but... We didn't bring any clothes, so we won't even be able to shower."

"That's right, I'm all sweaty."

"I wouldn't mind wearing the same clothes!"

"Okay, okay, I'll be right back. I'll leave the key with you guys, lock the door until I get back."

After saying that, the queen left the room.

Ah~~~

But while walking she bumped into a girl who was about 16 or 17 years old. It was a fox girl, a breed she rarely saw walking around her country.

The fox girl looked at her for a while curious, but the queen said nothing and moved on. She could sense that it was not a good idea to get involved with that person.

A day had passed since then.

In the morning, Ward went to the kitchen and was served by the maids. After that, he went towards the throne and sat down.

Inside the room, the remaining guards were standing on either side of the room to serve as guards. And along with them in the middle of the room were the eight armors kneeling as they looked at Ward.

"Yesterday was a pretty busy day, so I spent the rest of my day resting-" Ward straightened his posture on the throne.

"So today I will announce to the residents of the capital that a new king is in charge. For now, I don't want the other countries to know about it, so I will close the borders and the gate to the capital."

Ward rose from his throne and walked toward the window of the room.

"And the humans who are in the country, I want you to catch all of them so they don't let any information leak out to the other countries. Then execute them in prison, I don't want them to dirty the streets or the mansion."

"You want us to do that now? It would be better to get rid of them before we give the warning to the whole capital."

"Hmm, I guess it could be. You there, warn the guards at the gate to close the gate and not let anyone leave or enter from now on. After that, send letters to every city in the country and ask for the same thing."

"Right." The guard who received the order ran out of the room.

One of the armors nearby was still doubtful if this was a good idea. Would they be able to keep all the cities under control?

"But after we lock down all the cities, what are we going to do? Surely the residents and mayors of the other cities won't agree to keep their cities locked." The armor asked confused.

Ward looked at his and thought some more.

"Don't worry, I've studied the country a bit. Besides the capital, there are only eight major cities in Beastled besides small villages. I plan to send one of you to each city to handle everything."

"Got it."

"The gates of all the cities will close. Then you guys will split up and go to all the cities. Kill all the humans and warn the mayor of all cities about the existence of a new king."

"Just that?"

"Yes. And make it very clear that if they go against it or let this information leak out, I will destroy their city. I don't think that way they will do anything to disappoint me." Ward smiled proudly.

"Got it."

"Then first get rid of the humans in the capital. After that split up and run to the cities to deal with everything."

"But master, we can't leave you alone in the capital along with these soldiers. So I ask that you let me stay here by your side." Armor number 1 approached.

"Hmm...That's right. You can stay with me. There will be one city left, but either of you can go there later, right?"

The armors all nodded at the same time.

"Great, then let's start cleaning up the country, let's hunt down all the humans. After this cleanup happens, the cities are blocked and the mayors are notified of everything, I will reveal myself and talk to the residents of my beloved country." Ward smiled happily as he walked back to the throne.

And after less than 10 minutes the previous guard returned to the room reporting that the gate to the capital was already closed and there was no way out.

After that, 7 armors left the room and only armor number 1 remain. 

"That's right, you still haven't told me the number of all your brothers."

"I will do that when they return."

"No, I don't think you need to. I won't be able to tell you apart anyway."

"But how did you know I was number 1 when I asked to stand beside you?"

"You are the only one who dares to start a conversation with me like that. Even if your brothers are strong, they are afraid of me. Not that I'm complaining...'

"They probably feel afraid of your master. If they do something against you they will affect his plans."

"Makes sense..." Ward propped his elbow on the arm of the throne and then sighed.

'I hope it doesn't take that long.' Ward looked out the window again as he waited for the armors to return.

Around the city, countless humans who were walking the streets and staying in some inns were disappearing without a trace.

In a short time, a great commotion had begun inside the capital.

The gates were locked and friends of the humans who disappeared began to wonder where they had ended up.

But of course, even though the residents questioned the guards about the closing of the gate and the disappearance of the people, they said nothing out of fear.

Only two hours passed before the mansion's prison was crowded with humans that would be executed shortly thereafter.

At the same time, the letters had already started to be sent to all the cities in the country.
