After the knights confusion

In front of the door of the Kings Chamber, Harmal stood there with the recruits of the Knights of the Guard, filled with a sense of tension.

They stood there unshaken and with pride in their duty.

But the figure that appeared in front of the passage made their spirit, which would not flinch even in the presence of the king, crumble easily.

Gokigen-yo.

You dont need to greet the knight, Celestia-sama.

Celestia appeared, accompanied by Mary.

Although it was the first time they had met since the conflict, Celestia did not need to say that, even Harmal did not show much concern. And its not like hes not good enough, but because it has been determined that Celestia is an absolutely incompatible opponent.

Since you continue to do this, may I assume that you have chosen the position of a knight?

No matter how I answer, it doesnt change anything, does it?

The implication was that the fact that he had been excluded from the meeting room should mean that he was no longer trusted. He said sarcastically like this.

In the face of this insolent response to the princess, Mary gave a ghost of a look, but Celestias own face still held a gentle smile.

Since you have been able to reply so without any confusion at all, then I will take it so can you open the door now?

She then gave the order to open the door to the other knight besides Harmal.

Ah, yes. Im very sorry.

As if fascinated, the red-faced knight opened the door in a hurry.

Thats it, then.

Yes.

Celestia took Mary and walked into the meeting room with an elegant pose.

Ive spoken, with that Celestia-sama

Although the subordinates face showed a very unlikeable slutty expression, Harmals face was wearing a completely sinister look at the moment.

Faced with Celestia, whose inner thoughts were completely unreadable, he watched her leave with a look as if she was looking at an unfathomable monster.

This was also the moment when the entanglement and confusion within his heart began to gradually tilt.

In the meeting room were King, George and Lionel, plus Celestia and Mary who had come with her, making a total of five people.

So about Alto-samas return its true, it will be much earlier than scheduled isnt it?

Lionel repeatedly confirmed the truth of this matter.

Etro. According to the letter received, he will return within two weeks.

The First Prince Alto, as the leader of the First Order, which had gathered many elites, fully exerted his charisma and bravery as a leader.

Even though he is not an irregular like Celestia, he is still an outstanding talent enough to be called outstanding.

Well, is the reason unknown.

According to the letter, it seems that there is not a full grasp of the situation.

The reason why First Prince Alto went to the border was to keep the annual reconnaissance force of the Ralman Republic at bay.

For a battle that is rarely fought, someone of Altos or Lionels strength is needed.

However, this year

Its surprising that the Republics scouting force had been wiped out.

The scouting force of the Republic of Ralman is said to have been wiped out in a tragic manner.

The latest_epi_sodes are on_the . website.

In the Ralman Republic, which is surrounded by mountains, there are a variety of monsters, and they are quite numerous. The Ralman troops who had tamed them were a challenge to handle, but now they have been wiped out.

The corpses look like the work of very powerful monsters, but it doesnt make sense. Theres no sign of them being eaten, after all.

It doesnt make sense. Its a long way from the rest of the country. If they had done it, there would have been sightings. The only one I can think of right now is the [Demon of the Marsh] who lives nearby but Ive never heard of that guy leaving that area.

As George and Lionel were worrying, Celestia spoke up as if nothing was wrong.

Its no use groaning something you dont understand. Lets move on to the next topic.

No, but this is a major issue.

Gather information and send soldiers. Thats all we can do now. And since we can worry about such things in our own room, lets start with the things we cant deal with unless were all together.

Celestia poured cold water on the two mens eagerness to discuss the matter with cold words as she sipped the green tea Mary had prepared.

Thats right. It is impossible to conclude this until we hear the report directly from Alto. Theres still a mountain of issues here, so help me out a little.

The kings joking remark was made in the hope that George and Lionel would heed Celestias advice.

Thats right. Then it must be over sooner rather than later, so that Your Majesty can be freed as soon as possible.

Ha ha ha. If so, lets finish it in a hurry so that His Majesty can enjoy dinner.

With their shoulders slightly relaxed and smiles on their faces, they quickly moved on to the next topic.

So, the next question is about the security of this imperial competition

George said this before turning his attention to Lionel who was clearly frowning.

Well can you think of something else, Your Highness.

No. Harmal he, will be going to be in charge of guarding a different venue from His Majestys viewing gallery.

The fact is that, in the face of Celestias immediate rejection without mercy, Lionel was still unwilling to give up.

Its unknown if it is considered that if Harmal is removed from His Majestys escort this time, he will definitely be gradually alienated in the future. But the King showed the same serious expression as usual.

I would ask you to reconsider here. There is also information about the assassins who are targeting His Majesty. In view of Harmals merits he has been anyway

He bowed his head deeply.

This vigilance has nothing to do with the past.

Please also be accommodating here, by all means please!!!

He banged his forehead hard on the table and pleaded very sincerely.

Lionel, I dont want to change Celestias proposal even if you say these personal words. It is better to simply give up this time.

The kings plaintive words contained a will that could not be denied.

I see. thats right. It is true that the old man was a bit uncool. I am very sorry, everyone.

After bowing his head to the king, Lionel also apologized to Celestia and George.

After seeing that not only the king but also George had not helped to speak, he realised that he could not convince the other side.

As if to change the atmosphere in the room, George looked at the cup of tea in Celestias hand.

Ehem. Its rare for Celestia-sama to drink something other than black tea.

Actually, Im a little concerned about it too. Is this green tea?

The kings eyes also looked at the cup of tea in Celestias hand.

Yes. Its something I received by chance, and Ive been drinking it lately because it suits my taste. Isnt that right, Mary?

Yes, its a lovely drink!

Theres no need to add lovely to that sentence.

Under the eyes of George and the King, as always, Mary was a bit frightened at first, but now she is rather excited. What a complete change of attitude.

But in the midst of that somewhat unique harmony, Lionels expression remained very stiff.
