Raydor Holy Sword War Journal

"Oh, Lord Oigisto...!"

"I think you should keep your mouth shut. You're going to bite your tongue!"

Between the gloomy and lush trees, Justy runs away from Neferte's hand.

It's already been an hour since I started working with the Titans. Neferte's breath was disturbed by the fatigue of running, and her skin was also flushed.

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?"

"Nh...!"

Neferte breathed in the screams of doomsday demons heard from afar. It appears that some of the runaway soldiers were caught up by Wilfred and turned into predators.

A soldier who had been absorbed by a giant came to the forefront of Nefert's mind. Fierce fear strokes my back in chills.

This has been happening ever since I started running out of the woods. No heart or screams are gradually approaching, and anxiety is squeezing Neferte's heart.

"If you keep up like this, you may be caught up." I'm sorry I'm tired, but I don't think I can take a break. "

"... just leave me alone and run away." Justy-sama could have run faster. "

Neferte suggests with the utmost courage.

The petite prince realized that he was treading on his feet. Justy, with her inexhaustible health, should be able to escape farther and faster. I'm sorry that I pulled my leg and I was late running to Justy.

"Don't be ridiculous. It's out of the question."

But Justy refused Neferte's offer.

"I am relying on your life from His Royal Highness Reidor." The guest, Prince Neferte, must die later than I do. By the pride of a warrior, you can't run away without your highness. "

"But... I don't have a way to reward Lord Justy for his dedication." Even if we can get through this, we can still rebuild the country...! "

Nefert, who had no value── for his life, bite his lips with words.

Neferte is the prince of the kingdom of Aterna. But... how valuable is that identity?

If it were not the Undead hordes that captured the Kingdom of Aterna, but the invasions from other countries... or the lives of Neferte would have been of use. You can put Neferte on the banner and make it the cause of war. The blood of the royal family of Neferte will be useful in bringing the occupied people of Athena to our side.

However, it is the Undead that are occupying the Kingdom of Aterna. The cause of destroying the enemies of mankind has already been established.

Only the Undead are in the present kingdom of Aterna. Since there were no living people, there was no point in using Neferte as a flag.

In other words, the Kingdom of Zayn doesn't need a human named Neferte Aterna.

After defeating the [Earth] witch, the Ottomans, you can put the former kingdom of Aterna under control. There was no point in bringing Neferte forward and restoring the country.

In fact, Raydor allows Neferte to accompany Justy to attract enemies.

If he had found value in Nefert's existence, he would not have been allowed to take part in such a dangerous mission.

"Even if you abandon me, Lord Raydor won't blame you. So, Justy-sama, please don't make me your ankle shackle any more. I don't want to see someone die for me anymore...!"

"... apparently, the prince is possessed by a weak bug." I don't think you're making a good decision. "

"Huh...?"

Instead of leaving Neferte, Justy clenched her hand even harder.

"I don't know what His Highness Reidor thinks. But... Your Highness has deposited Prince Neferte with me. That alone is enough reason to risk your life. Even if the prince shakes my hand, I will let him run away with my shoulder."

"But...."

"As a warrior, I have a subordinate." Isn't that the same for Prince Neferte? The prince said that he would rebuild the kingdom of Aterna. If you do, you can stop throwing your life away so easily. "

…………

“When the prince dies, Aterna dies at that moment. Is what you are carrying really lighter than life?"

It may not have been a very thoughtful line.

But... neither a poet nor an actor. For Justy, a martial artist, it was a word of encouragement.

…………

In fact, it did resonate in Neferte's heart. Even if I didn't have enough words, my sincere thoughts would certainly be conveyed.

But... even with those two, the calamity will come fairly.

Ahhhhhhhh!

"Nh...!"

Though thoughts may be communicated, they may not always be fulfilled.

A giant with a hundred hands was waiting for him as he continued to run.
