─ ─ In the woods of the Kingdom of Liestia ─

"Was the demon captured?"

Said a knight with platinum armor.

This is in the woods within the Kingdom of Liestia.

The Wang capital is a day and a half away.

There, a dozen knights were gathered.

They wear armor that covers their entire bodies, and their faces are invisible. Barely, I just know if it's a man or a woman with a voice.

At the heart of the knights is a knight with platinum armor.

He wears a cape on his back and ties a great sword and a spear to his horse's gear.

Horses with platinum knights are also armored with all their bodies. The horse inside doesn't leak a single voice. I'm not even letting you breathe.

The platinum knights looked around at the knights as they stroked their armored horses with love.

The knights are kneeling on the ground and bowing their heads toward the platinum knight.

"I'm sorry. Still, any demons that might be used for maneuvers..."

"That's a shame. The operation will require as powerful a demon as possible."

"I'm sorry. I thought it would be possible to have an orga or a troll."

One of the knights answered with regret.

The platinum knight sighed,

"My lord apologizes. It's just that the security of this kingdom is good. Do well to the royal family who just made their country in the void where the Church of the Sanctuary perished."

The knights, who heard the words, raised their faces simultaneously.

"─ With all due respect! The 'Church of the Sanctuary' is not doomed!

"─ Its legacy and will are handed down to us!

"─ Please withdraw!

The knights scream.

The platinum knight who saw it shrugged his shoulder.

"If I seem to have touched you, I won't. I'm not going to get along with your lords. We are working together for the King's Capital of the Kingdom of Leestia."

"Yes, we have to reach the fifth basement of Elusion at all costs."

said one of the knights.

"Bring back what's there, one of us, and it's a victory!

"Two hundred years of obsession or something."

"To say that it would be dangerous if you gave it to the Kingdom of Leestia, Your Highness (...) also..."

"I thought I told you to call me leader.

Unexpectedly, a platinum knight raised his voice.

The knight who was in the front accidentally held his mouth,

"Excuse me. But you know the leader can't give that method of making to the kingdom!

"It doesn't matter."

The platinum knight shook his head.

"I just want to make sure that this' King's Ride 'is the strongest"

In the helmet, there was a noise of loosening the strings, and platinum hair (platinum blonde) flooded from the gap. The knight grudgingly reconnects it and turns to the knights.

"If I can see if there is anything in this' Kingdom of Leestia 'that could be an obstacle to the Empire, I will be fine."

Then the platinum knight turned his gaze to the back of the woods.

"To do that, we need a demon that will be a decoy. Let me capture something affordable."

"Please wait! What you do for yourselves..."

"Don't wait."

Shortly afterwards, a platinum knight disappeared.

Then, from behind the woods, a horse's hoof was heard.

The sound of running through the ground. The sound of kicking a tree trunk. The sound of the trees swinging.

But the knights could not capture the figure of the platinum knight (their leader).

Too fast.

The platinum knight runs endlessly through the woods.

Neither the ground nor the air matters.

Originally, trees are obstacles for cavalry, but only scaffolding for platinum knights.

Occasionally, trees shake in the back of the woods.

That showed where the platinum knight was.

Eventually...

"What. Wasn't there a big guy?"

Slurp, and, dragging the demon, the platinum knight returns.

It was the leg of a demon much bigger than a human being that was holding its hand.

"Oh, such a big guy, in this forest?

"If you're such a demon, use it as a decoy."

"That's Your Highness. - No, I'm a leader."

The knights speak up.

The demon being dragged, it doesn't even tickle. He is moving his mouth (beak) with his big wings closed.

I'm breathing. I'm not dead.

He ate the powerful blow of the platinum knight and seemed to pass out.

"Take care of it now. Guess the potion's still there, huh?

"Yes, sir"

The leader tells me that one of the knights sticks his hand in his luggage.

It was a metal cylinder that appeared to have been carefully removed.

When the lid is opened, there is a stinking odor and the knights and the knights of platinum breathe in.

Inside the cylinder was black, loose liquid.

"Is that the last two? Don't waste it."

"I understand, sir. It's our responsibility to reduce it so far!

"It's not your fault. Descendants of" The Kingdom of Guerrust "- If Felipe-Guerrust hadn't brought it up, this potion would still be there. He used it all up, we used it at the border, two more."

to the words of the knight of platinum, the other knights correct their posture and

"That's why we have to find a way to make it again!

"For the renaissance of the Church of the Sanctuary!

"You protected us, even for a great country!!

"Whatever you want."

The platinum knight, also shrugged his shoulder.

I can't get a look from my face when it's covered in a helmet.

However, the person just sighed that seemed uninterested.

"The King of Spirits (Lord of) Ride (Phantom) and the King of Beasts (Lord of) Ride (Beast) - among other rumors (rumors) that a mysterious King's Ride (Lord) exists, were taken by the Kingdom. I wish I could work with them."

The platinum knight laughed behind his helmet.

"Now, let's go see if the kingdom's 'magic guild' and they can use that one correctly. It will also serve your purpose."

The knight crushed that as he stared in the direction of the king's capital.
