Tensei Oujo wa Kyou mo Hata o Tatakioru

That night was just the end of a peaceful day the same as usual.

Swallow I was dreaming of adventuring for treasure because I heard Master Leonhardt had something I wanted.

I can now propose to Master Leonhardt by putting up a blurry one that doesn't even have an indeterminate contour! And around I was exasperated, I woke up. I'm too dumb while I am.

Suddenly his consciousness rose and he was lifted from a slight sleep to the present.

Once asleep, it's unusual for me not to wake up until morning. Besides, drowsiness has passed in a flash and I am well awake.

A blurry view of the familiar ceiling, I circle my neck and look indoors. Outside you can see from the gap in the curtain, it's still dark. Is it a cloudy sky or a crescent moon, there is no moonlight to plug in. Still, in the eyes accustomed to the darkness, the indoor appeared properly.

In a dim room, a small silhouette catches my eye.

"... Nero?

The beloved cat, who thought she would be sleeping round, was waking her body up from Rattan's basket, which is the sleeping bed.

The pinned, well-shaped ears don't move as if they haven't heard my call. With a round open pupil, he stares at the direction of the door.

I think it's common for cats to look in the direction of nothing.

And yet, for some reason, unspeakable anxiety creeps up.

The light shawl gently lifted her body out of bed.

I lean toward Nero and peek in.

"What's wrong, Nero?... Something, are you there?

Anxiety appeared in my voice and sounded unreliable to what I didn't think was mine.

Usually emotional love cats don't move as fine dust as statues do, and they don't respond. The silence of tinnitus continued for a while.

How long, I would have done that.

Nero's ears move piquely. Then there was a loud noise in the castle, almost without making room between them.

A pointy sound of broken glass pierces the eardrum. Then it sounded like a scream from a tall woman.

I held Nero in reflexively, and I gazed in the direction of the sound.

Mixed with noisy footsteps, you can also hear people, but the sound is too far away to hear to the content. My heart is engraving a beating as fiercely as it did walking with all its strength in the hustle and bustle that reproduced one night.

When they were after my life, I should have known.

Initially, when they told me, I felt relaxed because I was scared and I couldn't help but have had too much peaceful time.

The abrupt visit to the unusual was enough to shake my spirit.

Unexpectedly, the door rang modestly.

I blurted myself out with Vikri.

When I reply, the knight in charge of protecting the room seems sorry, checking my situation from outside the room.

"I apologize for the rest of the day. Is there anything different about you?

"No problem. It seems to be noisier outside than that, but what is it?"

When I told him I was safe through the door, he seemed relieved. No matter how urgent, I guess I was hesitant to enter the princess's room unauthorized around my age.

"Your Highness's escort knight will likely rush in a few moments, so I'll leave it to you before I check in."

It's painful to take away a short break, but it would be comforting if Klaus came.

Master Leonhardt will be rushing to the scene, and I'm sure the lattes and crows will protect him.

So when I told myself I was okay, my body tremor only slightly healed.

Nevertheless, I wonder what the hell is going on.

Is it the raid of the Raptor Kingdom? If so, what are you thinking about making it so flashy?

If you want the demon king's resurrection, I know that now that the princess has been summoned, there is no moment of respite either. Nevertheless, the way it is done is too cluttered.

I don't know how many entered the castle, but the Knights of our country aren't sweet enough to let the intruders get away.

If you get captured, you can't serve your purpose, so covert action would be an iron rule.

Or is it a disturbance when they find me sneaking in?

While I was thinking, they were naturally caged in power in their hands.

Nero rang in a high voice, kicking my arm and jumping, like protesting against the force.

"Hi-woo!?"

I'm sorry, I scream.

Contrary to Stone and his gorgeously landed beloved cat, I panicked and laid my hands on the door, falling ill.

"Your Highness!? Excuse me!

The knight, surprised by the sound of me rambling indoors, gets a word of no before opening the door. Nero then went outside out of the slightest gap he had made when he decided it was an emergency.

"Nero, no!

Get only half your body out of the shadow of the door and reach for your love cat.

"Come on," he offers with his palms facing up, but Nero doesn't move while staring at the end of the hallway.

"I'll catch you, Your Highness. Please go inside your room."

When the knight says so, he approaches Nero. You were in a hurry or your footsteps were rough, and Nero, who had not reacted before, looked back to be vigilant.

I don't know much about Nero, but cats are cats nonetheless. It is natural to be frightened if you are suddenly packed with distance.

In an attempt to escape the knight's hand, Nero ran out.

"Nero!"

To my voice, Nero finally reacts.

He stopped near the corner of the hallway and looked at me.

"Are you in danger? Come back."

Desperately complaining, crouch down and spread your hands.

Nero, who rocked his beautiful triangular ear, looks at me still. Nero, who reflected me in his jewel-like blue eyes and had stopped moving for a while, called me again.

"Please. Come, Nero"

Did you get the hard work appeal, Nero slowly came back?

Nero, who came to me while avoiding passing by the knight, rubbed his head against his spread palm.

Holding Nero, exhaling the ho and relieve breath.

I shook my head at the knight who bowed his head in awe that I was sorry.

This is how you came back safe, that's fine.

I rubbed my cheek against Nero, who was making a big deal out of me in his arms, and then I tried to go back to my room.

"Dear Rosemary! Are you safe?!?"

"Klaus."

Rushing Klaus must have been in quite a hurry. It wasn't the usual knightly outfit, it was just a light outfit: a white shirt and trousers. Did you also spare time holding the knight's jacket aside and wearing a belt to carry a knife, holding a sheathed sword in your left hand?

The shirt is covered and the hair is rusty. Always a refreshing Klaus, he looks unusual.

Breathing with his shoulders, he confirmed my appearance and breathed relief.

"Good...... You're safe."

"Yeah, I'm fine"

Relieved Klaus looks a little embarrassed when he says, "Give me something ugly," whether he realizes his misery late.

Watching Klaus fix his messy hair with his hands made me feel rude that he had something to be ashamed of for once too.

The knight who was guarding the room takes turns with Klaus, as declared, and heads to the back of the castle.

I dropped that off and then glanced back at Klaus.

"... wonder what's going on?

Klaus, who was weaving his knight's clothes and fitting the clasp on the stuffed collar section, makes a difficult face.

"I don't know."

Even for the Knights, was it an unexpected thing? Or can't you teach me? I couldn't have pursued it any further, either, to Klaus, who was silent with a harsh expression.

I think this would be nothing more than waiting in the room, and I give him my face to tell him that I'm going back to the room.

Klaus' wrapped air changed.

Like a beast who perceived the sound, Klaus lowered his posture and put his hand on the pattern of the sword. Sharp eyes stare at the end of the hallway.

Footsteps arrived in my ear that blinked something and a few seconds late.

Butterflies and busy footsteps approach this way.

Klaus stepped forward to shield me from his back.

Eventually, I see two small shadows. Running hand in hand both look like women.

On her rare length hair in the castle, she quickly realized that the woman was a princess of divinity drawn to her by a samurai.

After all, was the intruder's aim, Princess Kamiko?

She seems to have escaped, beside her, no chase-like shadow, but no sign of Master Leonhardt.

Even if we let them escape to a safe place, we don't rely too much on the fact that the escort is only a samurai.

Could it have escaped to the dark clouds before Master Leonhardt arrived?

Anyway, I have to protect you.

"Come here!

I reached out to Princess Kamiko, who noticed Klaus and I existed.
