“Is he dead?”

The prince vomits blood and looks at Sugrin Whelken. He looks at the man who fights for me and talks.

Well, technically, I called and fought for me, but technically, it was for the prince.

“I wouldn't be dead. ”

He's not gonna die that easy. I wanted to get drunk in the fight, but I went all the way back to Whelken.

You're not really dead, are you? Wheelken opens his mouth, his mouth still red.

“Come out lightly? ”

That's what I told the Hundred Daggers to say.

“Sometimes you can even walk around like this. ”

“If you work twice, you'll be a dead man. And when I'm dead, I'll come back for you. ”

“What kind of gossip is that? ”

“And the prince?”

“I'm fine.”

Wheelken rises to his feet, approaching the prince and kneeling.

“I'm glad you're okay. ”

“Of course. If I had died here, Earl Ludwig would be ruined. ”

The king will play the hero of the Unsullied for the three princes of the royal family?

Even if Earl Ludwig is on the Duke's side, he's doing this because he's already done the math. This is as crazy as the location of the Three Princes can get.

Son of a bitch.

I almost died. I urged the prince to come back.

“We have to go back.”

The smile on the prince's face was strange. It was definitely a heartache, a look full of annoyance and all the bad feelings.

“Let's go.”

I led them both to Ludwig Castle. I saw David and soon I met the search party.

As I was leaving, I said to the prince,

“I don't know if I'll see you again. ”

I know the periods of nobles. Earl Ludwig is not a fool, and even his servants have political instincts.

“What are you talking about? ”

“You'll need someone to take responsibility for all of this. ”

What's with the prince's face? I felt like asking. "

“Prince! I'm glad you're all right! ”

And all of this came rushing in. Kneel down, and he recites the lines.

“If the prince had a pervert, it would have been a grave sin not to pay for his death. From now on, the Ludwig Knights will be in charge of the Prince's escort. ”

Each nobleman's soldier is named after the nobleman. In other words, the Earl's Knights were Ludwig's Knights and the strongest troops in the region.

“And you?"

“This is my first time. My name is Ludwig, Earl Ludwig's eldest son. ”

“Ah, Servant? ”

The prince's tail slithers. If you call that a smile, it's an insult to the smile I've seen. The prince's expression was the look of the Devil's eyes that found a very interesting toy. I looked at it quietly beside her.

“Squire Chris. ”

The prince approaches to summon me, and he looks at me and says,

“If you want to see it again, it will be so. I am Edik, prince of Cercado. ”

“Yes."

When I lowered my head to set an example in his words, I could feel his gaze, and I could see his eyes. You've got a lot of acting power. You've got no light on me at all.

I blew a fresh smile into those eyes. Fuck you, asshole.

You may be a servant who wants to support me right now, but you can't do that in front of the prince. Soon the knights escorted the prince and the Wheelken hid himself. His visit was unusual, and for me, he took out a card from his spleen. If it weren't for that, he'd be dead, so read the proper numbers.

‘That's harsh.’

Duke Bentharam shakes his head in his rage. I thought Sercado's wounds were worse than I thought.

“See you soon. ”

The prince's last greeting is in my ears. Seeing his eyebrows twitching, I smiled and saluted him, and after they went in, I was able to return to my quarters.

Grass.

When I took off my gear, took off my clothes, and lay down, the world was at peace.

“Home is the best. Don't you think?”

“Bang."

I saw a pumpkin lying quietly beside my bed.

“Pumpkin.”

“Bang."

“Well done.”

Let's get some sleep. I ran, fought, and stayed up all night with the prince. I fell asleep and made my eyelids heavy. I fell asleep with my head on the bed. Washed and bothered to do it.

I wonder how long I slept. The commotion outside opened my eyes.

“What are you doing? ”

It is the voice of one I mocked without rest.

“As Prince Cercado's bodyguard, he did his best. ”

“We're not the ones who prove it. ”

I opened my eyes to the ceiling. My place is right The ceiling looked familiar. Yesterday was a pretty rough day.

You hear a voice just outside the entrance. Let's open the door to get out.

Chang!

Two spears cross and block my way.

“Squire Chris, Earl Ludwig commands you. I will limit your freedom from this time forward. ”

“Dawson!"

The one with the spear on the left says, and the one who saw it called him fiercely. Beyond two crossed windows.

“Hey, is Meco alive? ”

“Of course!”

He looks at me with his eyes wide open and says back to the two who stopped me.

“Again…. ”

“No matter what you tell us, it doesn't matter. McCoy, this is the Earl's order. ”

In response, Mecoy's lips flutter.

“Why!”

Why, why not? Because you have to take responsibility for it. It was anticipated. But I didn't know Mecoy would be so pissed off about my work. I muttered, leaving two blocks between me.

“I'm glad you're not in jail. ”

“It's not a trial yet. He would ask about this more fairly than ever before. ”

A friend named Daxon said, Both men who stopped me looked like apprentices.

“Squire Chris is an asshole, but he's only innocent of guilt about this. Who would lay down their life for the prince in that situation? ”

“Mecoy, stop whining. It's not personal. ”

That's right. McCoy bit him on the lip. Then he looked at me and opened his mouth.

“Son of a bitch."

Huh? The man who defended me so far has turned away, leaving behind that word.

“Back off, Squire Chris. The trial is tomorrow morning. And you can't leave the lodge today. ”

“Dinner? ”

Give me something to eat. I'm starving. In my own words, a man named Daxon shakes his head.

“I don't know if he's got a big liver or not. I'll bring my own meals. ”

That said, I went back to my lodging. As he said, soon after the servants had cooled down, I brought a hard bread and a bowl of stew to my house.

“That's not good.”

I muttered to myself, but I ate it all clean. Then he lay in bed and blessed the fight with the escape.

Particularly, the last battle between Hülken and the enemy mask left an unforgettable strong impression.

Can I catch it with the tongue of a snake? ’

It's too late. I wonder how Technologies caught a knight with a vice without a vice.

The superiority of the weapon? That won't do. Speed of response, motor skills, they were all different. They were monsters and superhumans who would slit the throat of their enemies in the blink of an eye.

‘It's okay.'

I calmed down in a hurry. Unlike the excited heart, my head was cold. I didn't have to rush.

Preparation is taking place. You don't have to try to push the time forward. The bread that was eaten in a hurry could not be digested until it was chewed slowly with water, and how to choke the throat.

I couldn't sleep because I slept so well. It was frustrating to be locked up. It wasn't about knocking them out, but I didn't feel the need to.

About the time I spent thinking about the future, I heard another voice outside.

“May I come in for a moment? ”

“No one should meet.... ”

“It'll only take a moment."

Somehow I think the two apprentices guarding my lodging are going to be thrilled.

“This will only take a moment. ”

“Thank you.”

With that said, someone came into my room. A neatly combed brown hair.

“You made it out alive. Lord Nelson.”

I greeted him with respect first. The opposing team is the prince's nearest escort knight.

“I know you did my duty on my behalf. ”

Starting with a light official, he sits on a chair in front of the table. When I settled down, he stared at me.

“Squire Chris. ”

“Yes."

“Do you know your place? ”

“I'm guessing a little bit. ”

The chaperone who had to escort the prince was the intestine. Someone has to take responsibility for this. Earl Van Ludwig is not to be touched by any commander in charge of defense.

Does that mean we should punish his firstborn? There are very few people in this area who can punish him without any evidence. The servant was also a man of great power.

We'd have to find a decent scapegoat. I am not a nobleman there, I have no rear belly, and I am the one with the proper status.

“I don't know how to talk back. ”

The prince's escort knight was as it had always been. He was hard and crude.

“My name is Nelson Foster, knight of the royal family, and I am currently in charge of the Knight's Escort of the Three Princes, Edric Sercado Gabsch. ”

Not everyone is in charge of the royal escort. Nelson Foster was a man of considerable strength. The Foster family is a royal family.

“Squire Chris. ”

“Tell me.”

“I heard there are no knights for you. ”

So it was quite unexpected for a man of this position to make such an offer.

“Will you come with me? I urge you to build your performance as a knight under me. ”

*

Nelson Foster never rests after sending the assailant away.

“Scatter them all! Find the Prince!"

Nelson thought as he ran.

‘Squire Chris. ’

If it weren't for him, the placenta of the escort troops would have died here. I had no choice. If the prince were here, he'd be in danger, too. The raider was of that level.

If the enemy had decided to kill himself, the fight would not have lasted this long. After the prince disappeared, the assailant took off and fled.

Nelson can't even go after them.

“Come on!"

He loosened his white belt and called out to his colleague, another Squire.

“You'd better get back to the castle and tell me what's going on! ”

“… Yes! ”

Mechas barely survives, and Nelson runs. The direction Chris ran, where he had a prince to protect.

Nelson wandered around all day, but couldn't find the prince.

‘What to do. ’

Your duty is to protect the prince, but you cannot know the life of the subject to be guarded. The apprentice knight, Chris, could not find his religion.

“Is there anyone who can track? ”

“I'm a hunter myself. ”

A soldier steps forward. I was in a hurry, but Nelson knew the colder it would be.

“Follow the trail. ”

Soon, the hunter soldier began to follow behind the apprentice knight Chris again. Traces were everywhere. It's been a while.

“Nothing.”

A hunter soldier told me.

“What don't you have? ”

“Every trace is a lie. I'm not a better hunter than I am... ”

The soldier blurs his words. Nelson had a complicated head. The apprentice knight Chris fires a smoke bomb and disappears. And there were traces of traps everywhere.

‘Scuire to cover the tracks of hunters. ’

He was very unique. Nelson pushes back his thoughts about Chris. He couldn't shake his anxiety until he could confirm the prince's safety with his own eyes. The prince came first.

“Sir Nelson? I am Captain Mals of the Search Bloc, commanded by the Earl! ”

Troops have joined the Earl's castle and searched the area ever since, but no sign of the prince, no sign of the apprentice knight Chris.

Nelson stayed up all night, and a day later, he heard the news when he went up in the morning to search.

“The prince is back! ”

“… What? ”

“Squire Chris said you were safe! ”

Nelson sprints to Ludwig Castle in a flash, where he can meet the prince. The prince, who had been in crisis dozens of times in his imagination, was completely fine.

“Too late. I'm disqualified as an escort knight. ”

Usually, he'd put a drink on his face. But the prince spoke to Nelson instead of "shit." I knew I wanted to say something.

“Do you know it's Squire Chris? ”

A short day with the prince, how he lived his life, he fell in love with him.

His skill and skill, attitude towards the prince there.

‘Let's take him.’

A squire without a knight, Nelson begins to envy him. There, I knew it would be difficult for him to refuse this offer under his circumstances.

After the trial, the apprentice will surely be held responsible. But if there was a poster writer behind it, if he could stand up and stand up, the story would be different.

The invitation to the Royal Road, not the defense, was the rosy future Nelson gave him.

And he needed it for himself. I like that fucking prince.

‘Let's take him. ’

Nelson made up his mind, and after a day of rest, he was about to find Chris.

“How do you feel?”

He asked Chris again, who had no answer. Nelson thought he couldn't say no. It was a recommendation with such calculations.

After a brief silence, a black-haired apprentice opens his mouth, soon to become his squire.

“I…. ”
