TL: Zimmings

An hour ago,

While watching the battle through the screen installed in the room of Empress Cecilia, I narrowed my forehead. Cecilia, who was holding a teacup in front of me, asked.

Lady, are you feeling uncomfortable?

Aunt, dont call her lady. Youll get in trouble again.

The only places where we can see through magic tools are the imperial palace and the plaza.

As I became younger, I could not go to the imperial palace alone where the nobles were gathered. So I asked Tri to dress up as my maid and entered Cecillias palace.

When Tri said in high spirits, Right?

Cecilia covered her cheek with one hand and muttered.

Its been a while, but I cant get used to it.

You said you started as the knight of Dubblede, right?

Yes. Triloni, you should call her properly at the palace.

Oh, thats right. Aunt

Tri muttered, and in the meantime, Cecilia once again asked,

Lady?

Brother is weird.

Hmm?

His facial expression and complexion are weird too. Why?

Really?

Johann never expressed his feelings even if he was sick, so I had to take a closer look at Johann than other brothers. I could be sure of that.

That expression. Its definitely when he endured the pain.

But why?

It is impossible that he, who is meticulous, did not control his condition before this important stage.

Wasnt he okay before the battle began? When he gathered with the commanders of each family and pledged loyalty to the emperor, he showed no signs of pain.

Yet he was like this out of the blue on such an important event.

Withdraw.

What?

Cecilia opened her eyes wide in surprise, and I hurriedly took out the communication device.

[Yes, this is Noanoke.]

Maybe Ill have to go out. Send me what youve prepared for the battle.

[Ill hurry up.]

After ending the call, I gripped its core.

Its the ball joint doll, Lane I prepared just in case.

Through the hands of Veronica and Trigon, it turned into the shape of Leblaine Lisette Dubblede perfectly, heading to the battlefield.

And now, after preparing Lane, I could see the battlefield through the dolls eyes.

Dubblede soldiers were surrounded on all sides, and Johann, who stood in front of them, was pale.

Johann!

Mina, who was next to Paladin Jonathan, called him. Jonathan held Mina, who was about to run towards him at that moment.

Calm down, child.

Johann, Johann!

Just then,

[Replace a soldier.]

The sound of announcing the replacement of Dubblede rang out in the room.

Peoples eyes flocked to Lane that stood on the mountain, in other words, me.

Meanwhile, Mina, who pushed Jonathan away, reached out to Johann. At the same time, I move through teleportation.

I held Minas wrist before she reached Johann. He uttered my name Leblaine.

How can you

That was Mina. Then, Jonathan shouted.

Let go of the child!

Who?

What?

So which child are you talking about?

There was a strange atmosphere around. The commanders of the family who allied with Mina glanced at Jonathan.

Jonathan, who coughed, said.

Let go of the second child of fate.

And I replied straight away.

I dont want to.

Huh!

Am I a fool to let go of the foolish commander who jumped into the enemy camp?

Child!

I destroyed the barrier that our enemies made to trap us.

Boom! Boom!

The barrier burst into the sky as if it was a firecracker, and when our enemies were surprised, I raised Minas wrist and said.

You guys are it. Catch me!

I giggled furiously and moved away.

***

Imperial palace.

[Catch me!]

Leblaines voice reverberated in the room, and the hall was filled in silence. Some people opened their mouths but no sound came out.

As soon as Leblaine destroyed the barrier and moved with Mina, Dubblede soldiers quickly supported her.

What should I say about this? Well, the first child of fate is indeed So .

The lady spoke vaguely, but everyone understood her.

Shes mad.

She acted so carefree on a big battlefield, as if it was a game.

If I were a soldier in Amitys army, I would faint because of the ridiculous situation.

A noble who gulped, muttered.

But she really has tremendous ability. She could use teleportation after breaking through the barrier that even Dubblede Irie could not break.

Its hard for her to be so bold without being supported by her ability.

Dubblede, who had been cornered, escaped as soon as she appeared.

It was a rather funny sight, but she really made a strong impression.

Isaac smiled despondently.

If possible, she should show up a little earlier.

Henry, who had been frozen all along, also smiled.

Im sure its a ball jointed doll. Did they prepare it in advance?

Theyve been locked up in the warehouse with Veronica for days.

Isaac, who said so, glanced at Theodore, who was looking at the scene.

Are you taking this opportunity to replace older brother?

Theodore coughed, and the people gathered in the hall focused on the scene again.

The place where Dubblede moved to was Mount Redgus. Mina, who was tied to a rope, frowned.

[Leblaine, youre mean.]

[Arent you the mean one for working together with most of the participating families?]

[This is a battle. Jonathan said that it is common to work together between countries in a battle.]

[Jonathan must have taught you that its common to take hostages in a battle.]

When Leblaine shrugged, Mina, who bit her lips as if she had nothing to say, said,

[Id rather you cut my shoulder strap.]

[Why should I?]

[Huh?]

[If I take you, they wont be able to attack me. Why would I cut your shoulder strap?]

When I said that, I looked at our soldiers and shouted,

[If you think they will attack you, use Mina as a shield!]

[Yes!]

[Yes!]

The people replied loudly, and Leblaine laughed.

[Try attacking me.]

[Leblaine!]

[You wont have strength if you scream like that. Stay calm. Thats how you endure torture.]

[To- torture? Youre going to torture me?]

[Didnt Jonathan teach you that its common to cooperate in battle? Ill teach you that torture is also common.]

Leblaine, who said so, squatted in front of Mina and pulled out a feather. Then Leblaine used it to tickle her.

When Leblaine tickled her nose, Mina screamed.

Laughing burst out in the Imperial Palace Hall. The godmother who laughed with a loud noise, told Theodore.

Shes always so cheerful.

She doesnt lose her humor even in the worst situation.

Yes. Would a person with a daughter live in sorrow?

Theodore and the godmother laughed, as people also burst into laughter, saying, Of course!

But there were some people who didnt.

Duke Marche whispered to the Duke of Amity.

Did you prepare for this situation?

All the plans were made by Jonathan. I dont know if she had a sense of humour.

its going to be difficult for the second child.

The people who supported Amity were grim. The scene of Leblaine with the devils wings running away with Mina kept replaying in their minds.

***

Bang!

Eston, the eldest son of the Duke of Marche and the younger brother of Empress Yvonne, hit the table.

Whats wrong with that girl? If you have a mouth, tell me Jonathan!

Jonathan became mute and gulped.

The atmosphere on their side is not good. Despite the announcement that Johann Dubblede was replaced and a new soldier was put in, the atmosphere was becoming more grim.

We still have a chance. Dubblede didnt have any allies. They also cant even attack recklessly.

Can we attack then?

Thats.

That evil Dubblede girl might set up the second child as a shield wherever we attack. At that time, will we be able to attack properly?

.

Replace the second child. We cant keep shaking like this.

Its impossible.

The pope ordered it. Through this battle, Minas name should resonate widely. The temples goal was to replace Leblaines name with Minas in peoples minds.

But what should we do with the foolish second child of fate?

Just then,

Boom!

A roar rang out. It was the first Dubblexe attack in the battle.
