Chapter 176 - Ravel Phenex

Pov Dia,

I reported to the four Seraphim, who decided that until a peace treaty is signed, their faction will not return to the city.

We also tried to determine where Cleria and her boyfriend's bodies might be, but we had no solid leads to follow.

Those who ordered the attack were arrested and handed over to me to decide their fate.

I had no interest in dealing with this scum, who wouldn't say anything, so I handed them over to Diehauser Belial, Cleria's cousin.

He harbored deep hatred for what the Church members did to his cousin, so I'm sure the perpetrators of this attack will suffer for a long time.

Rimuru: "Dia-sama, Ruval-sama wants to come here to introduce his little sister."

She is estimated to be around four years old.

Dia: "You can bring her to the living room and prepare some tea along with a small pastry."

Rimuru: "As you wish, Dia-sama."

I could see that Revali's little sister was incontinent, but I didn't know why.

Ravel: "I am delighted to meet you today, Dia-sama. My name is Ravel."

Dia: "Wait, are we sure she's only four?"

Ruval: "Ravel has always wanted to look like a princess, so she trains to act like one. One of her dreams is to meet her idol, the famous Crimson Princess."

Dia: "I'm glad you idolize me, but I'd like to know—what kind of princess does she want to be?"

Ravel: "There are different types?"

Dia: "Of course! Each princess is different. But we can still classify them into categories. There are princesses who wait for their Prince Charming, warrior princesses, those who work in the shadows, and the bossy princess who wants everything done as quickly as possible. So, which kind of princess does she want to be?"

Ravel: "I never really thought about it. I always assumed that a princess was well-treated by her family and that all the servants were very attentive to her. I didn't know there was more to it than that."

She bowed her head in embarrassment.

Dia: "You don't have to worry because you're still young. I just wanted to make you aware that if you want to be the kind of princess you just described, you won't have control over your own destiny and will likely be into arranged marriage without any say in the matter.

It's good to act like a princess, but you could truly become one if you grow into a great leader—someone who has the power to guide both their servants and their people."

She thought for a moment, and during that time, I advised Revali to ensure that she attended one of her brothers' peerages so she could gain experience in leadership and combat.

Ruval: "That would be a good method. She might also come to understand that the blood of the Phenex clan is not absolute."

Ravel: "I've made my choice—I want to be a graceful and beautiful princess who has control over her own destiny."

So she wants to be a princess like me, but more graceful, rather than following my daily routine and ignoring what others think.

Ravel: "I want to become the embodiment of a true princess and be the best."

Dia: "That's a beautiful dream. I can help you achieve your ideal, but I promise you it won't be easy at all. To become a graceful princess, every movement you make must be perfect, you must never reveal your true intentions, and there are other things we will cover in the future."

I feel like ever since this generation began, I've been training a lot of people.
