Master of the brave.

On the morning of the trip.

Through the woods, Iferina sings.

A short walk in front of Laura, she had a cage for collection on her left hand and an affordable length bar slice on her right hand to tear the bush apart.

I guess there was a build-up of depression in Iferina because the rainy day lasted awhile and I couldn't get out.

Laura watched with a loving look at her daughter, who joyfully drew the grass with a stick.

The song she sings used to be taught by Leticia when she was just a young girl to rejuvenate Yferina, who lost her parents and her inner companions in a demonic raid and was protected by the adventurers.

Iferina still sings this song a lot, a little bigger than she was back then.

He used to sing to kids who were still smaller than her neighbors, such as when he went to the city to open an outdoor shop.

It's in an unseen forest, so it overlaps Iferina, who sings and walks in an upbeat mood, with the wings of her back, which she usually hides under her zoary clothes, out and out of her clothes, as she overlaps the figure of Leticia, a young day she used to walk with Winn.

(Letty was a good singer too, but Leena's better)

Laura compares her young Leticia to Iferina when she first met her, and she laughs at me wondering if she's a pro moron to think Iferina is more talented.

"What's going on? Mother."

"It's nothing. Come on, can we get around here?"

"Yeah."

I'm going to pick out the grass that sprouted after the rain.

Iferina was also used to collecting in the woods because she had visited many times to help Laura.

Find the mushrooms that grew at the root of the dead tree and remove the medicinal grass, etc.

"You can't go too far."

"Yes, I'm fine."

Turning her back on her daughter, who was tearing the bush apart as she sang, Laura also began to pick mountain vegetables, etc.

This place, where the two of them are entering, is not so far away from people, but it's not that it's still safe.

Wild beasts also exist, rarely but also demons.

Even for Iferina's real parents, she is killed by demons.

There are also massive demonic crusade operations by the Knights and crusades by the adventurers on a regular basis, but nevertheless the damage caused by demons occurs.

And more terrifying than demons are poisoned snakes and insects.

Stabbed or bitten without being noticed.

For this reason,

"Oh, Mother!

Laura's heart bounced docilely when she heard the screaming screams of Iferina.

"Leena!?

Standing up, he looks in the direction in which he was hearing singing until earlier, calling his daughter's name.

Moving a little, the little back of the white-winged iferina looked beyond the bush.

"Leena!"

When Laura rushed over screaming, Iferina looked back at Laura.

Iferina had a surprised look on her face.

Seeing her daughter not even crying in particular, Laura felt like she could lose her strength from all over her body.

"Mother, over there"

When Iferina walked over to Laura, she pulled the sleeve of her right hand.

"Somebody's down there, right?

"Huh?"

As Iferina turned to those she pointed to in surprise, she saw a man's hand from the shade of the bush.

"Oh, my God."

Laura rushed over to the bush and peered in - she called out to the falling man and swallowed her breath as she reached for her body.

"... Mother. Is he dead?

Iferina listens as she turns her hand around Laura's waist and peeks from behind her fearful back.

At that time, a man groaned slightly.

"Alive!

I nodded to Iferina, screaming like I was excited,

"Are you all right?

Speaking up, Laura tried to hold up the man's upper body. At that time, she learned a soggy feeling.

"Oh, my God, you're hurting so bad!

He was lying on his back and fell, so he didn't realize he had a laceration on his back.

If you look closely, your left arm is also red and black, swollen and swollen, and unnaturally deformed.

It seemed fractured.

Blood is still pouring out of the back wound.

"We need to stop the bleeding fast!

Cut the man's shirt with the knife he had for collection and exposed the back wound, he washes the wound off first with the water from the water bottle he had removed from the bag he was bringing.

A man groaned at the irritation to the wound caused by the water, but washes it regardless.

"Leena, take off your jacket."

When the handcloth is folded and pressed against the wound, it is tied with a piercing coat received from Leena, who looks like her skin.

Then I tied it to my broken left arm with an attachment.

"Haaaaaa..."

Upon completing the first aid with a selfless obsession, Laura entered the ground.

"Mother. Are you okay?

Iferina, worried about her breathless mother, peeks into her face, smiling to reassure her.

Then I turned my eyes to the man,

"This guy... he's an elf"

Laura finally realized that the man who was falling was not a human, but a forest people elf.

I was desperate to deal with my injuries. I didn't really notice my characteristic ears.

(What are we going to do...)

The body of the elf man, made evident by the cleavage of his clothes and his removal, is lean but muscular and very unlikely to be lifted to the public by the power of one woman and one girl.

But you can't just let him sleep here like this. Although first aid has been provided for the time being, the doctor needs to see it as soon as possible.

It is possible that others will see Iferina's wings and magic, but we will have to bring him home.

"Leena, can you use magic?

"I'll try."

Iferina concentrated with a wrinkle between her eyebrows as she blinked her wings only once.

The adult wing race freely manipulates the atmosphere and sometimes even dominates the weather.

As it was normal for birds to fly in the sky, Iferina was also able to manipulate the atmosphere without needing another chant of spells.

Fluffiness and wind engulfed Yferina, then let the man who was falling roll up every dead leaf around him and float into space.

"Thank you, Leena. Looks like we can get you home?

"If it's okay to slow down, I think it's probably okay"

Laura rushed to the house as she hurried to the point where Yferina's magic could be maintained.

Simurgh Knights School.

dormitories where only that noble aristocratic woman is allowed to enter.

The interior of that dorm, which was originally used as a facility for guests to stay in, is also heavily spaced, with high ceilings, per room compared to other dormitories.

Each and every one of the columns was refined and seasonal flowers lived in the dormitory hallway.

Currently, there are four noble noble daughters living in this women's dorm. Two of them are international students from other countries, and the other is a marquis lady.

And the other - Leticia, the brave man who made it a Duke's house warrant and famous, lives here.

"Yeah. That's good!

In front of the big look, Leticia nodded, checking forward and backward as she circled.

A uniform as if it were an aristocratic costume, decorated in pure white with blue edged gold thread. None of them are practical, and if the hedgehog wears it, the outfit, which will undoubtedly float first, will also have a Rin atmosphere if Leticia wears it with a beautiful appearance and a slurry body shape.

As a matter of fact, Leticia, who, as usual, woke up before dawn, had done so again and again in front of the mirror.

Nothing, I'm not worried about anywhere, but this is how I stand in front of him somehow.

Leticia was aware that she was feeling a little.

During his journey as a brave man, he was indifferent to his appearance and wore clothes with emphasis on practicality, but became fashionably concerned after reuniting with Wynn.

"Well, it's really beautiful. Dear Leticia,"

"It looks really good on you."

"... thanks"

Praised for Leticia's beauty as a sigh were the two maids who had been to accompany Leticia for the past few days.

And the reason Leticia's reply to those two praises became sinister was because she did not welcome the presence of the samurai.

Originally, Leticia lived alone in a dorm without a samurai, but on her return to her parents' house the other day, by her sister, Stacia...

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

Northwest region of Shimrug, the Imperial capital.

The residence of the Duke of Mavis exists in a corner lined with a separate residence of the nobles staying in the imperial capital.

It deserves the title Duke and is quite a large mansion compared to the mansions built around it.

Reticcia stopped a short distance from the gate when she returned from the dormitory of the knight's school where she usually sleeps to the residence of the Duke of Mavis.

Whenever I return, I hesitate to enter the premises of this House.

Though a little far away, two knights, serving the Mavis family in suspicion, approached because they had stopped forever in front of the gate.

The northwest section of Teito is the aristocratic district. The roads are paved with cobblestones, flower beds are built beside the roads and street trees are planted.

Difficult compartment for the general public.

Among them, few approach the residence of the Duke of Mavis, who even has the right to inherit the throne in the Imperial capital, on foot. If you are a servant, you enter and exit through a dedicated general gate, and if you are a guest like visiting the Duke's house, you visit in a luxuriously decorated carriage.

I can't help but suspect Leticia.

"Thank you very much."

Leticia spoke to the approaching knight.

As soon as they realized that she was the last princess of this mansion, the knights gave thanks by forcing her face gently.

And send a signal to open the gate.

And it came to pass, when the heavy gate of the iron ladder opened to the left and to the right, and five knights came out of the gatekeeper's chamber, that they saluted.

Continue diving through the gate.

Going down the wide garden aisle leading to the front door, he was mistaken for several servants.

Though Leticia hangs words that labor the servants every time they are different, all they do is lay their eyes down and give thanks in unison.

Just be polite with your attitude.

But never keep an eye on Leticia.

In the past, you may recall the attitude you have taken towards Leticia.

Teachers yelled and scattered like every day at young Leticia, who became scared of failure, magically into study, and unable to concentrate. The Lord and his wife, the Dukes, stopped putting their expectations on her as if.

Such Lord's attitudes are also transmitted to His servants.

How long has Leticia been treated like air by people all over the mansion? Even as Leticia began to take off the mansion early in the morning to go under Wynn, she thought the last princess of the nose picker was bizarre.

But as a 'brave man', he was sanctified and defeated the Demon King, knowing that he possessed an overwhelming talent. There was no one lined up on earth.

I was to learn to fear.

Remember the attitude we once took.

I might get the reward for that.

And if Leticia ever really wants revenge, no one can hold it back.

Of course the Duke, the father, would be an empire...

As a matter of fact, Leticia has no idea of retaliation against them.

I am sure that I suffered a deep wound to my heart, but meeting an irreplaceable presence for her called 'Wynn' made those things less than enough to take.

Of course, it's not that I don't have any thoughts about the treatment of Leticia in the past, so now, when I come back to the mansion, the maid hired to look after me during the four years she was away.

You must have been contacted when you dived in the front door of the house, a lady with leticia greeted you.

"Welcome home"

The samurai's greeting was the first word hung by Leticia when she returned to this mansion.

When Leticia smiles a little bitterly, she goes to her room with words of labor hanging from her samurai. Her room was just a simple space with one desk, chair and small storage on a large sleeping area.

However, one vase was placed on the desk and seasonal flowers were kept alive. It was well cleaned and carefully tidied on the sheets on the bedside, without wrinkles, so that when the Lord of this room could return.

I guess the samurai holding back behind Leticia manages me like every day. Rarely lean, for the Lord's sake.

I thought Leticia did something wrong to her.

"What about your father?

"My husband, with his wife, has been invited by His Majesty to enter the palace. Stacia is the only person currently in this mansion."

"Yes... just my sister."

Leticia exhaled.

Though my family, I don't want to look at each other if I can.

No good memories exist with my oldest sister.

I guess my father and mother are going to be shown paintings, which are a hobby of Emperor Alexei.

Leticia and one different next sister, Felicia, are studying at Emerdia. My brother Rails, after graduating from Knights School, was assigned to the Central Knights and should now be garrisoned somewhere.

He seems to be a man of great nobility, in order to achieve merit in a simple or demonic crusade mission of banditry. If you get merit and return to Imperial Capital, you will be assigned to the Kingsguard Knights, and after your term of office, you will succeed the Duke.

And the eldest sister, Stacia...

"Oh, you were home? Leticia."

"Sister Stacia..."

I didn't feel comfortable, but I had to go say hello to Stacia. I ran into my eldest sister when I went out into the hallway.

"It's been a really long time. I'm glad you're doing well."

"Yes, so is Sister Stacia. I was just about to say hello."

"Yes."

In words, Stacia is delighted to reunite with her youngest sister, but there is room for that tone.

This will be the first time Leticia and Stacia have had a conversation since Leticia triumphed over the Empire City as a brave man.

Stacia, who preferred the glorious atmosphere of the imperial capital, had never returned to Maitzen, the Duke of Mavis, even after Leticia's triumph, and should have stayed in Simlug, but never looked at each other.

Most importantly, Leticia herself did not try to lean on the house.

However, even at the night club we were both invited to, we avoided each other face-to-face.

Leticia didn't like this eldest sister, and Stacia ignored her last sister for a long time.

Although my next sister Feresia and I still had a little sisterly interaction, it has rarely happened before that my brother and my oldest sister showed any interest in Leticia.

So when Leticia triumphed, and her brother Rails spoke to her as she showed her affection, she was bewildered.

Though I avoided it, I should probably say hello more than just being in the same house.

That's what I thought, I was going to visit my sister's room.

Leticia was surprised because she spoke to Stacia, who showed no interest in her youngest sister more than Rails, even though she ran into her when she left the room.

But as a Leticia, I have nothing to talk to Stacia about.

I said, "Now if you'll excuse me," and I just tried to get back to my room...

"Speaking of which, you didn't tell me. Next time I'm to marry His Royal Highness Prince Neumann."

"It's... congratulations"

"Thank you. It is an honor for me and for Mavis' house to have had an affair with Master Neumann, who can be revealed in the royal family.

Your father and mother are very happy, and they're going to have a big engagement reception. He sent a letter that day asking Brother Rails to leave too. "

Stacia stared at Leticia as she smiled cold awakened.

"Speaking of which, Leticia was headed to Lyon with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I wonder if it would be difficult for me and Neumann to attend the engagement reception."

"I'm sorry, sister. His Royal Highness Raul, the King and Prince of the Kingdom of Lyon, and I have traveled with him, so Alfred has asked us to accompany him."

"It's okay, Leticia. It's an important task. If that's the case, I can't help it - by the way, you. Have you made up your mind to accompany us to Lyon?

"No, unfortunately. But I have enough on my own…"

"Well!"

Stacia circled her eyes as surprised by Leticia's reply.

"Though the last princess, it is inconceivable that both the daughters of this Duke of Mavis family should go abroad without one of their servants.

Nevertheless, there was only one lady attached to you. "

Stacia smiled at her mouth as soon as she showed a slightly conceivable bare gesture.

"Right, let me lend you my samurai. That'll give you a little outfit."

"No, sister. I..."

But when Stacia waves to block Leticia's objections, two maids walk softly forward from behind her.

"These are the ones I trust most. I'll put these girls on you. They both have experience accompanying me when I came from Maitzen to the Imperial City, so they will also take care of you during the journey. Are you sure about that?

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

Because of this, I was watered down by a thriving mood.

In the words of the samurai, Leticia, who remembered the matter with Stacia, stared with both hands as she removed the silver necklace from the little jewelry box that had been placed on her desk in order to regain her mind.

At the end of the thin chain, a small, small aquamarine ring. It is a ring with fine workmanship for children.

It's an important treasure given by Winn before Leticia travels.

"Dear Leticia, If you can decorate your chest, how about this necklace?

What the samurai has offered is a gilded stone necklace with exquisite decorations. Not flashy about the decorations, but coloring Leticia's chest with it would attract her beautifully.

"However, I was wondering if your item would be very suitable for Leticia's format."

The stone itself is also a small grain and never an expensive item.

I don't think the Duchess Third Duchess deserves it, and even wealthy civilians may not wear it. To the samurai complaining with a slightly sinister look, but Leticia shook her head and smiled.

"It's okay. Because this is not meant to be dressed. This ring has given me strength and courage, a very thoughtful object.

Besides, I don't think that one of the items I wear will ever change anything like a rating. "

"... if that's what you mean"

The samurai backs off in a gracious manner.

Maybe he thought it was some kind of magical prop.

The gaze directed at the samurai's aquamarine was something of a trespass somewhere, and Leticia laughed cously.

Maybe it does have magic in it.

It's magic that only works for Leticia...

It's what Wynn forced me to give Leticia out of the money she earned working literally powdered herself into knighthood school on her own.

The power that this little stone gave Leticia was immensely great.

"Hey."

A door slammed and a voice rang from the outside.

"Got a schedule? Everybody's waiting."

"Yes."

"How disrespectful," Leticia ventures to the door, controlling the angry samurai.

The samurai still can't help but know because I haven't had time to serve her side.

When Leticia opens the door of the room with her own hands, she welcomes Wynn, the Lord of Voices.

"Morning, brother. I'm ready, too."

"Morning, Letty."

Leticia glared at Wynn standing in front of the door of the room.

"Yeah. They look a lot like you, brother"

"Really? It's been added to my squire's uniform, and it kind of makes me feel awesome in my clothes?

Winn's figure is also decorated in pure white with blue edged gold thread, a uniform as if it were an aristocratic costume.

Although pure white uniforms are essentially only allowed by the royal family in the Empire, this time Alfred authorized the use of pure white as a courtesy of Cornelia's squadron.

From the opinion that pure white would be most deserving as serving beside her.

Kingsguard knights in red uniform, court knights in black uniform, central knights in blue uniform.

And the Cornelia squad white uniform that Wynn wore. Leticia wears the same uniform again.

"Hmm, Letty looks better in the same uniform"

"Ugh, thanks. But what would the captain do if he said he was your brother and he didn't look good?

"That's right."

When Leticia says with a laugh, Winn also erupts.

I think of Lloyds with his puffy stomach part sticking out. It is clear that he, who is sweating, is wearing a uniform that looks cramped and is short of breath.

Alfred promoted Lloyds Platoon to Cornelia's squad of squadrons as it was. The commander stays put, Lloyds. The rank is the treatment of a hundred horsemen.

Many voices of opposition also rose from among the nobles, but Alfred pushed them off.

that Cornelia, who was actually attached to the squadron, indicated his approval. Her track record of training under the Lloyds Platoon as a cadet served as a reason to hold back the opposite voice. The nobles who wanted to bring their sons closer to the unmarried princess also had to shut up.

"The kingdom of Lyon, the kingdom of Saint Raul the Sword? It's not for fun or sightseeing, but it's my first long trip, so I'm looking forward to it."

"I hope we have time to get out of here."

I guess I'm really looking forward to it. Leticia smiles too as she says that to the bright looking Wynn.

Leticia was also so excited to travel, since the morning of the day she triumphs over the Empire City tomorrow from her journey of the Demon King crusade.

Out of the women's dorm where Leticia lived, four men, Cornelia, Rock, Wedge and Leno, dressed in the same uniform as the Winns, waited.

I'm glad I was able to wear the same uniform as them, above all Winn.

In Alfred's story, Leticia hoped in her heart that there seemed to be a lot of trouble ahead of her on the journey, but still it would be a pleasant journey.
