Raydor Holy Sword War Journal
224. Her way of life
Ceilia von Alslein is an imperial princess.
As the holder of the [Thunder] sacred sword, she fought against the Kingdom of Zayn, and lost the battle and fell into captivity.
As a prisoner, Celia lived with her defeated sword holder, Raydor Zayn, and experienced the first events of her life.
Whether good or bad... Having gained various experiences as a warrior or a woman, Cyril returned to his hometown because of the rapprochement between the Kingdom of Zayn and the Empire of the Alsrhines.
The defeated Celia was prepared to suffer the appropriate punishment... but surprisingly, she didn't scold her when she returned home.
On the contrary... I was praised as an actress who had entered into a friendly relationship with Zayn Kingdom, and was even awarded a medal.
By the way, the Imperial Army probably didn't know that it had defeated a small country.
Even the holy sword holder, the tiger child, was defeated. If it was made public, anxiety would spread to the people.
Thus, after returning to the Alsace Empire, Celia often returned to her life as a princess.
Attend a tea ceremony with a noble child, or dress up in a dress to attend a party. Originally, it was Celia who had returned to her rightful form as a princess... but what was inside her was a hole in her heart that was open in vain.
"I can't do this... I'm the chosen hero of the Holy Sword!" I need to wield my sword to benefit the world a little! "
Declaring that...... Celia jumped out of the royal palace without waiting for her father's permission.
Celia was on her way to the Adventurer's Guild. When I was in Zayn Kingdom, I used it a few times, and it was a special organization that dealt with monsters.
Knocking on the guild gate, Celia worked hard. Taking on difficult requests one after another, he ran around the Empire and subdued the monsters that tormented the people.
Of course, the people in the Royal Palace were trying to bring back the princess who was leaving the castle and taking out the dangerous monsters.
But... there was no one who could capture Ceilia, who could fly around in thunderbolts.
Father and Emperor Zacharius van Alslein said, "Leave me alone!" Even though I was laughing at my daughter's rampage, I couldn't do a full-scale search, and Celia's trip to the monster crusade was half-approved.
Celia chose the adventurer's path for two main reasons.
The first is that I learned how people were suffering from monsters because I was an adventurer in Zayn Kingdom for a short period of time.
The powerful monsters originally appeared only in a few areas, like the reclaimed cities that Raydor ruled.
However, in recent years, the number of monsters that appeared and the scope of their activities had greatly increased. Even in areas where monsters have never appeared, damage has occurred, and people have been attacked and lost their lives.
Seeing people in distress, Celia wasn't so sentimental that she could pretend not to see them.
The months I spent as an adventurer were enough to change Celia's outlook on life.
Another reason is that we have lost sight of the “justice” of war.
The Alsrhine Empire has waged aggressive wars against various countries with the cause of bringing humanity together to confront the threat of the Six Witches of Doom.
Celia believed it was the right thing to do. Until Zayn came to the kingdom.
The question arose in Celia's mind as to whether it was really right to live in the Kingdom of Zain and interact with the people...... to destroy their lives and impose the justice of the Empire.
Raydor was also an enemy royalty. Then, by living under one roof with Neimilia, who was part of the "Six Witches of Doom", the enemy, the values up to that point were overturned from the ground up.
I couldn't believe that it was right to wield the Holy Sword for the sake of [Empire Justice].
Troubled, struggled, lost, distressed, and regretful... As a result, Celia chose her own path of justice.
I wasn't forced to do it by anyone. I found a reason to wield the sword myself.
In other words... as an adventurer, I chose the future to fight against the monsters that are the enemies of humanity.
