Master’s Smile

She had a thin sword in her hand, though it was far from the complete equipment of not wearing protective gear, probably because she rushed after me.

When Ritter pulled his sword out of his sheath, he slashed it at the assassin at a speed that was inconspicuous to his eyes.

"Shit!"

The assassin had managed to turn himself away from the slaughter many had been beheaded by that blow.

The boulder is a powerful man who has defeated the private soldiers in vain.

But it seemed impossible to avoid Litter's sharp sword, and the hood the assassin was wearing was slashed.

He takes big backsteps and distances, but fortunately my eyes and those of Litter's can catch on at night.

Even if you don't know who it is, you'll be able to see about your face.

"... you've already used this too"

Did the assassin prepare to be slashed in the face, too, saying so and taking off his hood himself?

I was there to make it clear how I remembered the signs.

"... Teldorf"

Whimpers in a voice that doesn't make Ritter feel any emotions.

The face that emerged from the inside after taking off his hood was Teldorf, head of the Knights of the Kingdom and Prince Linz.

Oh, the assassin, was he this guy...

Then I can snort that I made it easy on the private soldiers.

... I could have avoided this guy's attacks a lot.

"Litter. I didn't know there were knights like you sent here to escort the nobles. I thought it was time for Princess Nina to move, but I couldn't have predicted you on the boulder."

"Yes."

Litter nodded as if it didn't matter when Teldorf spoke with a smile all the way down.

"... you don't seem interested. You know I've killed nobles of Princess Nina before, don't you? You seem to be a knight of the Princess Nina, and you don't get outraged or anything?

Uh, speaking of which, they have a lot of varieties among kingdom knights.

Some knights, like my imagination, are full of chivalry, and some are very much the same as the Grey Guild.

Well, the Knights are such a big organization, so it's natural to have people of all kinds of thinking.

In the meantime, knights full of chivalry spirit seem to be basically Princess Nina.

Meanwhile, the slightly rough knights like the Grey Guild look like the Prince Linz.

I guess Teldorf is saying that.

But......

…… I don't care about killing nobles. "

"... what?

Just need to know what you're talking about, a litter tilting his neck.

Nor did Terdolph, whom I heard, think such a reaction would return, as a kyoton, not suited to his gripping face.

I said, don't tell me I don't care if it's pre-built...

"The problem is that Teldorf put his sword to the master. Die."

"...... Huh!!

Put up a sword, a litter that releases intense killing.

Teldorf, the kingdom's most powerful knight, was also enough to shed a glimmer of cold sweat.

Now, if the battle starts, eighty-nine liters will win.

If the two of them fought in full swing, I don't know, but Terdolph now doesn't have a sword that is a weapon.

... because I broke it.

Litter, if there is no danger to you, I want you to take advantage of Teldorf and capture him.

For Princess Nina, that would be a plus.

"............... ok"

Litter nodded after a great deal of time.

Oh, this, you're never gonna let me live and capture you.

I realized that, but I decided to respect her will because it was the Ritter who fights.

I'm also worried about what will happen if the head of the Knights of the Kingdom is killed, but in the first place we are members of the Dark Alliance, The Army of Salvation (Yerkchilla).

Honestly, I don't know much about what happens to the kingdom.

"I'm not dissatisfied with dying in battle, but you can't have a knight fighting without a sword either. Here, let me run away."

"I won't let you get away with it. If you're after the master, die here."

The same goes for Teldorf, who declares that he will escape with dignity, but I wonder if Ritter, who, for once, will turn to him who will be his boss, will declare him murdered without hesitation.

Nevertheless, I'm not going to let you get away with it easily.

When I capture Teldorf, my rating goes up the noose.

Members will allow me to be on the front line sometimes, even if I don't have to do all the paperwork at Alliance headquarters.

"No, let me run away!

When Teldorf said so, he took the sphere's out of his nostalgia.

There was something more black in the clear sphere.

Oh, is that... Huh!?

I find myself in a rush to stand in front of the litter.

Teldorf slammed the sphere to the ground.

At the same time, a black mist appeared to distract him.

I put a simple line around me and Litter to prevent it.

Apparently, the identity of that black fog was surprisingly a low-level 'it', and my junction never went into one crack.

"Master..."

But this was doing a lot of damage to the litter.

She followed me with a weaker look than I could imagine because of her usual faceless expression.

This is not for the usual skinship.

He's counting on me to get away from something horrible.

As far as I know why she's so frightened, I just had to hold her gently.

It's okay, I'll protect you.

With that feeling in mind, as I stroked Ritter's head with guts, her body, shaking small, subsided.

... ugh. I can't believe Teldorf has a 'demon', albeit low-level.

"What happened -?

Other private soldiers who were guarding the mansion rush over.

Already, Teldorf's appearance was not here.

... I have to report to Princess Nina that he was involved in a series of previous assassinations.

That's what I thought as I hugged the litter.

"... Master"

... Is that it? Ritter, the tremors have already subsided, haven't they?

If you're okay now, it's time to move away...

Oh, that? Why are you crawling your hands in my clothes? That's not necessary......

Ah - -.
