Celestia clearly remembered that day four years ago.

At the time, she was eleven.

One year after blessing.

Unable to fight the demon, she hid and lurked in the basement with several soldiers and maids while the royal capital was attacked by a horde of undead.

"... Father ...... Brother ..."

"I don't need to worry, Your Highness, Princess. Your Majesty and Prince are safe ...."

She knew that the encouraging maid's voice was shaking.

The situation is probably not good.

The queen's mother died when she was young.

What if my father and brother didn't come back?

The tremors of the body did not stop just by imagining the future.

But the Grim Reaper's scythe came first to hunt for the life of a young royal family.

Destruction of the basement door reveals a fearsome chimera that combines several creatures.

What's more, the old man who was convulsed by the chimera was an executive of the Demon King's army.

Escort soldiers were easily killed and Celestia realized his death.

No, it would still be good if only killed.

It was unbearable humiliation, being undead and becoming an enemy puppet forever.

One boy appeared there.

"This is dangerous here! Run away ...!"

At first, she screamed, wondering if an ordinary child got lost.

After all, he was a little smaller than the eleven-year-old Celestia.

But he never moved before the chimera, on the contrary,

"Okay, I'll beat you"

"I confidently declared and showed.

I can't do that.

It is a common hero desire for boys of this age, but now this reality is the only tragedy.

What was happening in front of the rushed Celestia was the opposite of what was expected.

The boy defeated the chimera and the necromancer with overwhelming strength.

When she stood stunningly in front of the incredible sight,

"Ah……"

By the time he noticed, he was no longer in the basement.

"I couldn't thank ... my name ..."

That boy who doesn't even know the name.

I don't know if they live in the royal capital or not.

Celestia has lived since then, regretting that day.

Why didn't you say thank you?

Why didn't you hear your name?

As the moon passed without a chance to meet the boy, his thoughts had grown stronger, rather than diminished.

(It's no surprise that we can meet again in this way ...)

Celestia glanced high, staring at the side profile of the boy sitting next to him.

He's 12 years old, and he's growing more than four years ago, but he still looks younger from her fifteen-year-old.

Nevertheless, I felt as if a reliable adult man was nearby.

"... Ceres?"

"That!"

I was just watching.

Celestia got up in a hurry, flushing her face.

"Thank you for coming bother today! I'll be back soon!"

"Oh, yes"

I want to talk more, but this is the limit today.

Fortunately, I go to the same school and I will be able to meet again anytime.

Celestia left the place so quickly that he couldn't understand the reddish cheeks.

"Hello, Celestia!"

When he returned to the women's dormitory, he heard his name.

Looking back, a faculty member of the school rushed to this place in a hurry.

"What happened?"

"Actually, there is a messenger from the Royal Palace earlier."

Celestia wonders what it is.

"I want the King to return to the Royal Palace as soon as possible."

"What is your Majesty?"

"Yes. I already have a carriage."

"... it's quite steep."

Until now, this has never happened.

It must be very urgent.

Despite his anxiety, Celestia boarded the prepared carriage.

It is a royal carriage with the royal coat of arms.

Ten minutes to be rocked by a carriage.

Celestia arrives at the Royal Palace and heads for his father, the king.

"... Ceres? It was bad ... I just called it out ..."

"No. So what is the story?"

For some reason, I had a bad feeling about my crispy father's appearance, and at that time, a voice came in from the side.

"Oh! I love Princess Celestia! It's been a long time!"

"Well ..."

Looking back, Celestia involuntarily distorted her face.

There was a middle-aged man like an orc.

The age is about 30 years younger than it looks.

Although it is not very tall, it has a body shape that spreads greatly to the side.

Her hair was already thin, and she was sweating just by walking, probably because she was living an irregular life.

"Oh, Crown Prince ..."

"Hoho! I remembered it! I'm so happy!"

I will never forget.

After all, he is the Crown Prince of the Empire of Hambarada, a neighbor of the Kingdom of Edelheid--

"But it's even more mature and beautiful! I have a nose high as my fiance!"

-Celestia's fiancee.

"This, what kind of project is this time ...?"

"Actually, I decided to get married with you earlier, so I just came from Hanbarada!"

"e……?"
