Master of the brave.

"Hehe..."

Leticia laughs when she leaves the hall.

"Ha ha"

I get caught and my smile spills on Winn as well.

Nobody's coming. I want to go somewhere quiet. I want to talk to you alone.

I found a fountain made of marble in the courtyard and a white bench beside it.

Rain and wind, which had been raging in storms until earlier, were up at some point, and the light of the moon could be seen from the slices of the clouds. The moonlight is making the white marble of the fountain float in the dark. Is this fountain taking water sources from the Murray River or spraying water with you in abundant quantities, the droplets were brilliant in the light.

I guess it was made luxuriously by the stunning Earl of Shrihaden.

Count who wants to lean his neck in the taste of his outfit, but the calm atmosphere created by the garden fountains and implants was something he could like.

The wind is cold and damp after the rain and comfortable for the flaming skin.

The bench was snugly wet with rain water, but the droplets disappeared quickly when Leticia chanted her magic small enough to sit down.

The two sat down on the bench.

"Oh, I'm surprised"

"My heart's still pounding."

I kept laughing all the time until we got here, but we could both finally put a laugh to it.

"I was forced to take Letty out of there, but I wonder if it was a good idea. I think I pissed off Letty's brother."

"It's okay. I think Raul can do something about it. More than that, brother. What the hell is wrong with you? Are you sure there was something you wanted to do?

"No... I have no business. It's just that... right? If I'd seen Letty surrounded by those guys, I'd be impatient."

Then Winn overlaid his left hand on the right hand he had placed on Leticia's bench. And I saw the moon I could see from between the clouds.

"I'm surprised myself."

"Yeah."

Leticia puts her head on Winn's shoulder and leans back.

"Letty...... I like Letty."

"Yeah."

"Probably all the way from the day we first met in the backyard of the Innkeeper Pavilion..."

Winn squeezed his mouth once, then stroked Leticia's head as she put it on her own shoulder and held her trembling shoulder in small pieces.

"But I couldn't tell you the whole time. Me and you probably live in a different world. Because I thought so. When you came back from a long journey, and I found out where you really came from, I thought you'd be away from me, far away, and that scared me away from you."

…………

"But I was relieved that I was a master of the brave. Oh, now that Letty and I are in a new bond. Even if I'm a different person, if I'm a teacher and a disciple, I can still have the same relationship with Letty..."

Leticia woke up her body. And I looked straight up at Wynn's face with slightly moistened eyes.

Winn also stared firmly at her as she put her hands on both shoulders of Leticia.

"I'm sloppy and weak. If you're aware of Letty's feelings, but you respond to Letty's feelings, I'm sure your surroundings won't allow that. Trying to keep me and Letty apart. I couldn't help but be afraid of that. So like my brother and sister, I kept slipping through child-familiar relationships. I... yes, I didn't have the courage to take a step."

Leticia is just listening in silence to Winn's monologue.

Make sure to hold your right hand in your left hand with your chest and grip it, nodding small enough to bite every word of Winn.

"Letty - Leticia. Leticia Van Mavis. I like you. I don't want to make an excuse that the world I already live in is different. I don't want to let you go. I want you to stay with me forever."

At the same time as Winn's thoughtful words, Leticia's eyes open wide and Shizuku flows down her white cheeks sooo.

"Me too... I like your brother too. Love it. Love it. I never want to leave my side...... I like it so much that I can't help myself..."

When Winn wraps Leticia's cheeks with both hands, he wipes tears that convey her cheeks with his thumb.

Leticia closes her eyes.

Two lips overlap.

"Lettie... Letticia..."

Wynn squirms Leticia's name so she can bite it off, laying her own lips on her little lips again.

"Letty... I will always protect you. I'll always be there for you."

"Me, too, I don't like being separated from your brother again. Absolutely, I'll always be by your brother's side. I miss you so much, I don't want to do it again..."

Even as she was traveling with the heavy fate of defeating the Demon King, Leticia said she was crying thinking of Win, who had been separated. She keeps thinking about Winn all the time.

I believe in Wynn more than anyone else in the world, sweet and always deeply loving.

Words that Wynn can respond to such Leticia.

"I love you, Letty"

A new Shizukuishi spills out of Leticia's wide open eyes.

"Glad to... Glad to..."

Leticia with her hands on her chest, pounding and tears.

A word Leticia has been waiting for.

Hot feeling creeping up from the back of my chest.

So much happiness that my whole body trembles.

"I'm glad..."

With unprecedented joy, Leticia cried, concealing her face with both hands.

Winn hugged Leticia hard.

In Wynn's arms Leticia continues to cry with a small tremor.

"Brother...... brother. I knew your brother was amazing. I can't believe you made me feel so happy..."

"Right..."

And Leticia smiled like a soldier when she woke herself out of Winn's arms.

"Hey, say it again? Another giggle?

"Oh, I love you. Letty."

As Leticia asks, Winn draws her body again.

"Hehe... if you're my brother, you're turning bright red"

"And you won't be able to help"

whisper in his ear. Couscous and Leticia laugh.

The momentum that rocked me and took her out of Leticia's brother and nobles left me to confess my thoughts that I had been hiding for years. Then when and sweetly Leticia was so cute, but I gradually learn to be shy.

My cheeks are hot.

He turns his hand around Leticia's back, who leaves his body defenseless, and rubs his soft hair with Leticia's silky touch. Leticia narrowed her eyes to see if that feeling was comfortable.

Love enters the wins.

A voice heard from inside the mansion was about to mark the end of the feast.

Someone might come to the courtyard as well.

Still, Wynn and Leticia, embraced each other, remembered how stuffy they felt from each other's bodies.

But...

It was Leticia who noticed the anomaly first.

Stay dressed as you cuddle with Wynn, focus your spirit and explore the signs around you.

With that Leticia's body wrapped in tension, Winn also noticed an anomaly.

I can hear you rubbing something from outside the mansion.

"What?"

The doubts of the two men, who had left their bodies and stood up, were resolved with the voices of soldiers who had run desperately into the mansion.

"Also, I say! Pepe, the Imperial Army is in progress for Peshlica! This mansion is under siege too........................................................................."

The voice of the squeezed soldier was finally extinguished with the voice of the disconnected demon.

But the voice of the soldier who risked his life to inform him of the sudden had certainly reached under the Wins.

"To Mr. Cornelia!

Win pulling Leticia's hand like she was bounced and rushing out.

"Brother, you know what? I'm not lost anymore."

Leticia shrugged as she ran in line for that win, staring straight ahead.

What? And Wynn didn't inquire.

However, with a little effort in his hands connected to Leticia, Winn replaces his response to Leticia.

The outfit interrupted two sweet moments, but we had told each other how we felt. Then there was nothing left to fear.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

"What are you going to do with this, Count Shrihaden?

"You don't have to panic, Your Highness. I'm just inviting another guest tonight."

What jumped into the eyes of Wynn and Leticia back in the hall was the appearance of Count Liselman and his men following Cornelia with senior officials of the Royal Lyon Army, beginning with Raul, and Rock, Wedge and Leno being surrounded by soldiers of the Western Knights with their swords.

"Raul!"

"Hey, Letty. As you can see, it's different."

Raul, who saw Wynn and Leticia back in the hall, makes me shrug my shoulders.

Even though we are surrounded by a large number of soldiers, there is no such thing as a sense of crisis in that reputation.

"By another customer, do you mean Prince Neumann's main unit coming down the street now?

To Raul's question, Count Shrihaden nodded with a niggling cold smile.

"Is this why you only let us in town in the name of hospitality and let the other generals out of town! Did you give it to Brother Neumann from the beginning?

"I wonder if it's something like the last supper, Princess Cornelia. Did you enjoy it?

Count Shrihaden gives a derisive look to Cornelia, who gives him a harsh look.

"If you look at the trends in the current situation, it's a natural conclusion, isn't it? Princess Cornelia."

"But Uncle Shrihaden. My army of Lyons is 60,000. The Imperial Western Knights and Horsemen's armies, when combined, should be about 20,000 in size at best. Until we rendezvous with the main forces of the advancing empire, we are still better off in numbers. My army will be attacking this town of Peshlica soon enough, when they find out we've been compromised?

"That's why, Your Highness Raul. That's why I invited His Royal Highness and the Princess to this mansion. All of you will be taken prisoner. Can your army attack when Prince Wang is taken hostage?

"Bad...... Shame on you for pointing your sword at the royalty of a nation that forms alliance friendships!

Staring at Count Shrihaden, Cornelia gripped her fist hard. Next to it, Raul shakes his head small and sideways. Then he spoke to Count Lieselmann, the ambassador to the Kingdom of Lyon, who had refrained behind him.

"Oh boy... the hard work of the Ambassador, I guess"

"I am truly sorry. I didn't know those people were fools so far... When I see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince after the successful recapture of the Empire, I would like to discuss the qualifications of the Western Gorges, even immediately. Until then, I want to forgive you..."

There is no lurking voice, and Count Liselman apologizes to Raul.

To Count Lieselmann, who affirmed that he was a fool, the nobles bestowed on the surrounding Count of Shrihaden were colored, but it did not become itself that Count Shrihaden raised his hand and suppressed and erupted.

But apparently, as Rock said, the Horsemen who rule this neighborhood are fatally inferior to something called political sense. That's what I thought. When Winn looked at Locke, he spread his hands in the wind like he noticed in Winn's heart or Locke was untreated, and let him shrug his shoulders.

"Leticia"

It was Leticia's brother, Rails, who entered from among the nobles still obsessed with Count Liselman's remarks.

Rayles saw his sister keep her hands on Wynn, and made her face angry for a moment. but as soon as I smiled like your son, I said with my hands wide open to welcome her in.

"Come here, you. His Royal Highness Prince Neumann is our brother-in-law. Your Highness will be my sister-in-law. I am also very worried about you. [M] Now they're asking me nothing about your actions with the bandits. Let's go to the Empire and worship His Highness Neumann before we corrupt our fame as' brave men 'into the earth. At that time, this brother apologized with me and asked His Highness for a generous treatment..."

"Brother, are you making any mistakes?

Letizia opened her mouth, blocking Rayles' words along the way. The voice was the exact opposite of cold against Rails disguised as the wind worrying her bottom sister.

"The title 'Brave Man', which I gave from Anastasia, the goddess of Genesis, stands alongside the Grand Goddess, the Emperor. You don't have to go down to His Royal Highness Neumann, who is only one royal family."

"Wow, I'm sorry, Leticia. I'm sure you're right. To Your Highness, you may not have to apologize. But, Leticia, listen carefully. If you go with me to His Highness Neumann, His Highness has promised me the further development of our Mavis family. You will have a good friendship, too. Being your opponent is not enough. [M] There is no doubt that the royalty of a great power will be the opponent. Your Highness Neumann would have had a good conversation for you."

"Because of you, brother. I have already laid down those who walk with me in the future. Wynn Bird. My most beloved master, and beloved."

"Stupid...... but that would just be a civilian!? Rethink, Leticia! If you bond with the royalty of a great power, you can live a life free of all kinds of disabilities! We can bring more prosperity to our Mavis family!

"It has nothing to do with the house, brother. I was told I was for the world and traveled to defeat the Demon King. Four years... Some people would say it's just about four years of journey. But the last four years, when I was forced to be separated from my beloved, it was hard...... I missed you! I don't want to think like that again..."

Leticia, who tried to hold Wynn's arm in her chest, looks up at his face and smiles like a solder. To Leticia like that. Winn also smiled and let him snort forcefully.

Seeing how those two were doing, Rock whistled small, Leno glistened his face pat, and Cornelia smiled small as well.

"Never again will I leave beside him..."

"Leticia!"

"It will be all right now, Lord Rails. Can we talk about your family even after this noise has settled down?"

It was Count Shrihaden who broke into the conversation between Leticia and Rails.

"His Royal Highness Prince Wang, Princess Cornelia. Please accompany our Western Knights from here to Shimlug, the Imperial City. To the soldiers of Lyon who are outside, I invite you to return to your country."

"You think my army would listen to that?

"This is out-of-heart, Your Highness Raul. I'm not asking you to listen, I'm giving orders. His Royal Highness the King. Apparently, Your Highness needs to speak up. As prisoners - no, you are a tribute, from us to His Highness Neumann!

"I don't know which one of you isn't speaking up. I don't know what you're talking about! Trying to capture us with this level of force is an affront. You guys, let's do it! Break through the siege net and rendezvous with your allies! You can do it!?

"Ha, Your Highness!

Senior officers of the Royal Lyon Army pulled out their swords as Raul pulled out his sword.

"You are willing to resist! If you're quiet, treat what you've done with so much politeness!

"With a bad personality of raw hatred and natural giving up! Thanks to you, I was able to stay with Letty until the end of her journey."

Raul grinned wildly at his mouth, showing the torso of a fully armed soldier who had been slashed with a brief sword wave by armor.

"Hih..."

Blood splashes and organs splashed wide open. The nobles' faces blued slightly at the smell of blood poking their noses.

The circle of soldiers under siege widened, barely pressured by Raul, who stared sharply into his eyes, not to mention when it was next.

It's not Raul who misses a moment of fright the soldiers showed.

Finding precisely the breakdown of the siege net, Raul jumped into it.

When two soldiers are quickly cut off by the divine speed sword judgment, the Lyon kingdom martial officers jump in to further widen the breakdown of the siege net created by Raul.

"Yep! There's a handful of them! What are you doing!

Count Shrihaden learns of the soldiers, but inside the mansion worked against the soldiers besieged.

Regardless of the wide hall, Raul quickly cleared the way to the hallway of the mansion while his opponent was swallowed by Raul's releases.

When this happens, it doesn't matter anymore, such as the difference in the number of soldiers. After that, the battle of skill. "Sword Saints" to "Brave Men" and those forged by their "Sword Saints".

The soldiers of Count Shrihaden have allowed a light breakthrough.

"Your Highness! You're safe!?

When I went outside the mansion, Manuela, a lady knight with raul, came running over on a horse. Noticing an anomaly in the town, Manuela was letting troops deploy to cover Raul's escape.

"Get the army together! We welcome Prince Neumann's army!

"Ha!"

The knights and soldiers of the Royal Lyon Army, who followed Manuela in the issuance of Raul, rush out with salute.

War begins.

When Manuela jumped onto the horse she pulled for me and pulled Leticia up behind herself, Winn ran the horse to rendezvous with an ally outside the town.
