The Marquis’ Daughter Acts As A Pawn

We were in a narrow alley near Wang Du Church.

"Placement complete, Your Highness."

"Good luck."

Smiling at the knight who came to report, he blued his face for some reason and ran away.

He's rude.

"Dear Edward, do not imitate the morale of your allies. The knights know how your animals are."

"Right. From now on, try to laugh a lot."

"Please stop..."

That's what I say and sigh, Cyrus.

Contrary to that, Keel, who was next door, was laughing lavishly.

"Fear might boost command the other way around!

"Stop saying stupid things, Keel."

"Hey, you know this is before the operation? Damn, why should I help the Demon King of the Livestock..."

Vincent stared at us like we were trash.

Well, I don't even know what Vincent means.

"That's what your father ordered. Give me a hand this time."

"If I waste your sister's information, I won't forgive you, will I?

"I'm not wasting it"

Speaking of Kippari, Vincent remained unfaithful but silent.

Vincent is excellent. Whatever the inside, you will follow orders properly.

Are you sure you want to go, Master Edward?

"I've told you many times. According to information brought by Julianna, today is the day Sabato takes place. And in time, if you want to pick up the church aristocrats, it's today."

"But Master Edward doesn't have to go himself..."

"Shit. I'm the only royalty who can move now, and I want the fact that the second prince himself picked Sabato. And most importantly, I'm the one who sent Julianna in. And yet you can't possibly threaten to hide because I'm dangerous."

It was Vincent who answered my words in place of Cyrus.

"... chip. Are you after your sister after all? Give me something I wish I could do with a proper warrant..."

"It's bad for Julianna to do something to make me like this."

"I'll tell you what, because I'm your sister's best!

"Only now, right?

When provoked, Vincent turned his face bright red with anger.

Again, that's funny when you tease me.

"That's it. Why have you been incompatible for so long... for the most part, because of Edward"

Cyrus enters arbitration in a distorted tone.

Is it time to run the operation and stop teasing Vincent?

"From this, we will pick up Sabato, which is taking place within the King's Metropolitan Church. Cyrus, explain."

The knights in the alley listening to my voice turned to Cyrus.

"Yes, then, final confirmation. Entry into the Wang Du Church takes place with the few elites here. Our duty is not to capture the nobles, but to let them escape. At the end of the aristocratic escape route, other knights have already been placed. Leave it to them to catch you. And when that's done, we'll immediately detain Sabato operatives. That's it."

"According to the information, there is one troublesome mercenary. He's... Keel, I'll leave you to it."

"Copy that!"

"I will wait on this side and be a liaison with the troops that follow. If there is anything missing, please come back here. Vincent's troops are acting differently, and we ask you to take control of people in the church who are not Sabato officials so that there is no confusion."

"Now, let's start the operation."

"" Copy that. ""

Disputed by the dark night, the operation was begun -

♢

Stunning the gatekeeper, we broke into Wangdu Church without difficulty.

Follow the map made by Julianna on a path without people's signs.

Act separately from the Vincents' troops on the way.

And me and Keel led a unit into a place in the church called the no-go zone.

A knight in the lead signals a halt.

A man in a white mask ran away as he held his breath and watched how it was going.

After the masked man is gone, signal by hand to proceed at once.

"So, who are you guys!!

"Report..."

Defeat those in white masks and clear the way.

After a while, I saw a luxurious door.

According to Julianna's report, is that the entrance to the ritual venue?

I opened the door carefully, alerting the knights.

It was an opera-like space, and at the end of the door, you could look down on the stage like an audience seat.

In a red and black tonal space, I find my taste terrible.

On stage were aristocrats dressed in splendid beauty and wearing evil hobby masks.

And in the center of it, there was a joke man in priestly clothes.

Sure... Was that Father First? You really fell to the ground.

The ritual looks like it's just begun, and the stage hasn't been painted with blood yet.

Neither the nobles seem to be aware of our existence yet.

"Leave a few by my side, and then go downstairs. Father, take him into custody immediately."

"" Copy that. ""

The knights ran down the stairs.

Seeing it, you gradually notice the intruders, the nobles make a scene.

I can't help it. Because they are knights with the crest of a royal knighthood.

"Why, a knight..."

"Retreat, quickly!!

"I'd pay for it, so..."

The nobles arrive at the entrance and exit before us, wrapped in a whirlpool of nasal cry.

But it also took a few minutes to calm down and seemed to escape, except for those who were trampled and injured or passed out on the run.

Later, other knights waiting for multiple entrances and exits for nobility will do well.

"You've done so much extra, Second Prince."

It was the Duke of Macmillan, the head of the Church denomination, who showed up.

And beside it, there's a mercenary with a halvard.

Keel, who was beside me, had already pulled a knife and had his sword tip pointed at the Duke of McMillan.

"Was there anything offensive about it, Duke?"

With a soft grin, the Duke's anger grows stronger and stronger.

"Fair enough. If I kill you here, I can fix it."

When the Duke of Macmillan said, straw and armed white masked men appeared and refrained after the Duke of Macmillan.

If you look to the stage, there are white masks there, fighting the knights.

Can't you turn the knight until you cover this side?

Near the Duke of McMillan are twelve mercenary men combined.

By contrast, there are four of us: me, Keel, and two knights.

That's a totally unfavourable situation. Well, what do we do?

Inside in a hurry, the door we broke into behind opened up momentum.

"Ooh, ooh. This is going to be a lot of fun, isn't it?

It was the woman in mourning and hiding her face with a black veil and the man and woman in the white mask who showed up.

"Is that Cardia? Just fine."

Is that the former Baroness Cardia Remington?

I've seen her before when I was looking for Leah, but she was as luscious as before.

"What the hell is going on here, Duke?"

"Thanks to the second prince there rambling us, the nobles fled"

"Around the corner, I was looking forward to admiring the disturbed and insane nobles... you do terrible things, Second Prince"

"Kill the Second Prince and we'll be able to hold Sabato again"

"Then you must disappear to the disturbing Second Prince."

It took the form of being sandwiched by the Duke of McMillan and the former Baroness of Remington, and although it cannot be said to be a situation of absolute desperation, there was no more wonder and haste.

Something's wrong.

I don't know what I find strange, I see the Duke of McMillan.

But I don't feel anything in particular.

Then I look at the former Baroness Remington, but there must be nothing particularly strange about it.

And yet it catches something.

When I think about that discomfort, I come to a conclusion.

"Kufu, hahahahahaha"

"Whoa. This is a bad situation. So don't go crazy at a time like this, Ed"

Keel sounds worried but ignores it.

I didn't go crazy.

"There's no way I can stop laughing at something funny like this."

"What's so funny - Ed, wait!!

I don't hear Keel's still voice, I stand in front of the former Baroness Remington.

And I gently touched her dark hair.

"Well, my acting time is over... Julianna"

Removing the veil of every brunette, a girl with deep purple eyes smiled as she blossomed.
