"You seem to know a lot about my power... but how does it feel to be directed at you?

"No... stop"

Are you telling me to stop? Do you fear being hurt even though you are willing to take what belongs to others and hurt them? "

I can see the blood on my head. Sofia's tears, glimpsed in Helmut's memory, stitched to the floor, amplify Gilbert's anger, even though reason knows that she shouldn't and should calm down. I swore I would never let it hurt again. Gilbert's reason is being pushed away by his helplessness as emotions flow. I found my body cooling against the heat of my emotions.

"─ ─......"

The bracelet asserts its existence to Gilbert with light and heat. Even annoying, Gilbert shook up his right arm to hold the sword.

"Fever....."

Sofia was surprised by the sudden heat and looked down on her left hand. I looked around in a hurry, but there was nothing unusual in the area that I could see from within the magic barrier. Kevin and Tobias have disabled the Knights of Elatos one after the other, and Gilbert has Helmut. It appears that most of the Knights have already lost their warfare. I thought Gilbert no longer needed the magic barrier he maintained.

"Is something wrong?

I wonder how Sofia is doing. The concert is calling.

"The ring..."

Blue crystal ring from Gilbert on the pinky finger. It has a mysterious fever and is trembling slightly. What does this mean? Strangely, Sophia looked at Gilbert again and at her back. The concert grabbed his wrist as he aggressively tried to get out of the barrier.

"You're supposed to be here, right?

"But...."

I don't want to see Gilbert suffer. Sofia waved away the hand of the concert. The moment I crossed the magic barrier, I felt my skin twitching. Still running straight to Gilbert. I never thought the long hem of the dress would be so disturbing. Some of the knights who realized they thought something would change if they caught Sofia, got up and followed them. Sofia rushed up the stairs in front of the throne in a fascinating fashion, taking off her thin heel shoes and her opposite shoes without worrying.

Gilbert shook his right sword. The wrist bracelet was emitting light.

"─ ─ I can't...!

Sofia clutched to Gilbert's back with the same momentum. The sword that was swinging down halfway stops just before it is thrust into Helmut's chest. Gilbert shook his body in shock and looked back surprisingly. On that white face, Sofia felt her body trembling.

Gilbert, who stopped the sword, was unable to speak out against an unexpected psychological shock. I can't scream because Helmut is unconscious to too much fear. They were going to kill me anyway, and there's nothing I can do about it.

"Sofia ─ ─"

Gilbert looked back and looked down at Sofia as she held her back. Your body trembles. Shoes fell slightly behind me. The knights of Elatos are stuck with their stunned faces. Your suddenly boiling brain wakes up like it hit cold water.

"Please don't carry it all by yourself....."

Sofia looked up at Gilbert. Those dark-green eyes are sincerely pointed at Gilbert. The self reflected there seemed unreliable, and I was so upset that I couldn't hide it.

"That's..."

"Mr Gilbert is not bad. That's why you don't have to do that. So... don't look so spicy."

Sofia's eyebrows fell down and her wet eyes filled with loneliness. I couldn't keep up with my thoughts on why Sofia looked so spicy and why Gilbert looked spicy. With his left hand away from Helmut's head, he touched Sofia's claspy hand. I felt relieved by the heat there. The platinum bracelet gradually dropped the light. The fever that I insisted on gradually cooled down.

"Sofia, how could you do this?"

I have to tell them that it's dangerous to move on your own. Sofia opens her mouth from her sense of duty, but she shakes her neck loosely from side to side.

"─ ─ But I can't leave Miss Gilbert alone."

Sofia has a sophisticated face that looks like she's crying and laughing. Gilbert gently relaxed Sofia's arm, convinced that he was making that look. Love that springs up cannot be stopped. Gilbert confronted Sofia with a warm presence that scratched away her desire for destruction. The magic of interfering with certain metals is then gently thrown indoors so that the fighting does not intensify any further. This will only affect the sword of Elatos, which is made of a metal different from the sword of Iolia.

"Did you make me worry? I'm sorry."

"No, thank you for protecting me...."

The trembling body of Sofia calms down slightly by hugging Gilbert. With relief, Gilbert repeatedly stroked his back.

"Lieutenant. What should I do with this?!

It was Kevin's lost voice that watered the world. Looking around, all the knights of Elatos' swords are crooked. It seems to have melted and solidified once. The knights completely lost their game and looked at Gilbert and the others as if they were stunned. Lutz stood in surprise. Kevin and Tobias still can't hold the sword as clean as they threaten them.

"Thanks to Miss Sofia. It's better to take less trouble."

Tobias speaks in a serious voice. You're absolutely right. Sophia stopped Gilbert just before.

Thank you, Sofia.

Gilbert whispered in Sofia's ear. Sofia blushes her cheeks as she shrugs herself. The trick was cute and Gilbert laughed unexpectedly.

If you notice, the concert is right beside you. Sophia tried to escape Gilbert's arm because she was embarrassed, but she bolstered her arms to hold her back.

"The throne was too heavy for Helmut. ─ ─ That's right, I have to return this."

The collar that Conrad took out of his pocket was the collar that was attached to Sofia's neck when he was captured. Conrad attaches it to Helmut's neck, which is still unconscious. The hardware rang.

"That means I was followed....."

"That's right. It's a good chain for this fool."

Sofia shook her body in agony. The refreshing smile of the concert is still terrifying.

"─ ─ Let's discuss the pact of peace. I want you to prepare a place again. I wonder if you could wait in the guest room for a while."

"Of course, Your Highness. See you later."

Gilbert leaves the room with Sofia in his arms. I ignored the shoes on the floor because I wanted to get Sofia out of here as soon as possible.
