The Marquis’ Daughter Acts As A Pawn

The palace of the Diaghilev Empire, protected by many mercenaries, fell sooner than expected. The commander seemed to have escaped, too, a collaboration full of holes.... unnaturally.

On the top floor where the emperor lived, there was no one but Seraphim. Even though it was corrupt, there must have long been nobles serving the Diaghilev Empire. Yet Seraphim was fighting to help Avrola while she was covered in blood.

(... I guess being born royal means being chained to life by geese at birth)

How much of the heavy pressure I was under all by my weak, small body? I hold the hand of a soothing seraphim strongly.

"Ivan... you knew the Emperor"

"Yeah. Just once. It was one of my usual routines."

Answering Vincent so reluctantly, I stepped away from Seraphim and stood up.

"... but there was just a little something special in it. I want my precious Avrola sister to be happy one day by catching her far away... I was entrusted by Seraphim"

While young, Seraphim understood Avrola's position. And I'm sure my feelings toward Avrola.

(... sorry, Seraphim. I can't help you. Avrola one, in me of thieves who can't steal without betting everything in their lives......)

Seraphim has become emperor. I can't defend my childhood, my frailty, my being a puppet. Even without a single will on his part, certainly because the Diaghilev Empire accelerated its decline to the reign of Seraphim.

This country wants Seraphim dead. I can't go back.

And I also... for Avrola - no, I want Seraphim dead for myself.

"There was only one samurai left. Don't worry, you seem like a capable grandfather!

While Yuan carried an old samurai doctor, he came into the room out of breath.

I gently stroke my sweaty Seraphim forehead.

"I'm going to Avrola"

"You are second only to the witch of the revolutionary government. We must stop at this castle and declare victory with complete control. You renounce your role?

Vincent said to blame.

When I laugh invincibly, I shake my head to make a fool of myself.

"You don't know what the role is. I'm a thief, so I only take whatever action I want. Prioritizing personal feelings is the privilege of free robbery"

Revolutionary government gained by losing Avrola. What do you know?

My number one is Avrola. That remains the same now and in the past.

I haven't been able to steal everything from her yet, so the action to take is decided from the beginning.

"Huh. I respect your never broken heart, too."

Vincent said with a twinge attitude.

"When you say that to your noble boy, don't light him up."

"Boy, you're extra. Neither did I know what the country was like or what noble duties were. My priorities have long been set. [M] I want to protect my family... that's all."

Vincent said as he remembered something, looking at Seraphim with a rugged eye.

"Yuan. Me and Ivan are transferring full command to you. I'll take control of the castle."

"Hey, you're going to Vincent! Unlike you, Deputy Chief of the Secret Service Division, I have no experience commanding troops!?

"I would have learned it in cadet school. Yuan's grades were average, so you could do it about normal. The enemies in the castle are almost wiped out, and they're not willing to resist."

"It's easy to say! The test and the field are different, you honor student!

Vincent kicked off Yuan wrapped around his leg.

"Fine, do it. On the side of the Fourth Empress Avrola is a sister… and then a livestock demon king. If the escaped Gustaves are after the sisters, someone has to go. Then I'll go. Because I'm the one who loves your sister the most in this castle."

"I'm not willing to leave Avrola to others either. Not if it's life-threatening."

Hearing me and Vincent's firm intentions, Yuan stepped on the estate as he called the key key.

"Oh, already! There's this sister-loving kid and a color-love thief! Fine, you can leave your place and go on your own. I'll take care of it. You said you wanted it later, but I wouldn't give it to you! No spills."

To put it all that far, Yuan looked at this one sneezing his own hair and resenting it.

"Be sure to protect your highnesses when you do it. I'll take care of everything."

"Well, of course."

"Help, Yuan"

Me and Vincent jumped out of the Emperor's private room and rushed to Avrola and the others.
