This Time, I Became the Fiance of a Duke’s Daughter. But She is Rumored to have Bad Personality, and Ten Years Older

Jared and the others on prepared horses continue along the streets of the Duke of Lüdiger's territory alongside Hugo.

"Aside from some cannibals, the majority move from evening to midnight. Now, my soldiers alone will stand it. But at night, the load gets heavy."

Are cannibals the characteristics of demonic things, and daytime activities become dull? It's not like it's going to stop moving at all, and if there's a human in front of it, it's going to strike relentlessly, but the movement is dull.

Of course if you are a knight, if you have a weapon that can keep your distance like a spear, even if you are an ordinary person, it is possible to pierce your head and knock it down. Daytime only, though.

Returning to an activated cannibal, the load is heavy, as the Duke put it, in knights who predominate in melee combat to deal with the flock.

Jared and the others rushed to the Duke of Rüdiger's territory because they wanted to prepare for the night. At the same time, you want to crush as much as you can crush the herd during the day.

"As Lord Jared will know, my territory is in need of northern protection. It's not like there's nothing but my territory in the north, but I'm supposed to take responsibility for being the biggest, the Duke's house."

"If you pinch your mouth from the side, the territory in the north is in a close relationship with the Duke of Lüdiger. Many demons and barbarians have never crossed the North before."

Even though I remain uncomfortable with words like Lily's boy, I feel familiar.

Maybe it's because I went back to my original girlfriend for putting it back on the basis of my false name and deed.

Like Jared, Ernesta still seemed unfamiliar with her, but instead of thinking she didn't like it, she felt as confused as ever.

"You put a lot of effort into defense... as a person living in the King's Capital, I sincerely thank you"

"No, what, if I make a mistake, the Harald guy's gonna have to go out, right?

"I'm in charge of protecting the king's capital, so yes."

"If that happens, it will be. Above all, if Harald moves because of me, he loses me. That must not be all!

"... because that's how your father always tends to be with Harald."

I see, I suppose. Indeed, Hugo Rüdiger and Harald Alway should have belonged to the Knights at the same time.

Although my grandfather is a member of the faction of the Duke of Alway, he has also received news from the Duke of Lüdiger. I remember my grandfather also laughing bitterly at the foolish straightness of how he looked luxurious and mauled, at the turn of the season he noticed his grandparents written in masterful letters and told them grandiously without hiding that he wanted his faction to be saddled.

Instead of doing it behind me, I challenge everything directly from the front. That was Jared's side of the known Duke of Lüdiger.

"We're not enemies, but we're rivals. Don't get tense. What are you gonna do?

"... it's really quite a habit to be a man."

My daughter drops her shoulder on my father's words.

Jared couldn't speak between his father and daughter and put up with Ernesta laughing.

Not very much, but it was the air I didn't think I'd be dealing with over three hundred cannibals from now on.

"Though, it's hard to just be the soldier I have this time. Cannibals are never uncommon, but this time on an unusual scale. Probably since the beginning of the kingdom. That's why I wanted power in the Royal Palace."

And Jared showed up on the Duke of Lüdiger's territory.

While we're talking about this, the horse moves on to the front line. I smelled slightly blood.

"Have you noticed, Lord Jared? You have just a good sense of smell. I want you to join my faction."

"What do you call that..."

"What, I don't mind keeping Olivier in the normal room. I don't give a shit about trivialities like that. They're going to accept me unless I'm such a bad guy."

I get a headache from Fugo laughing luxuriously.

I'm sure he's right and would welcome Jared with no regard at all if Olivier were really going to be one of his men, even if he was in the regular room. But as a Duke of Alway house, that wouldn't be funny, and it shouldn't be possible.

To be honest, it was the truth that I didn't want to get involved in factional strife in the Duke's house or anything else.

"I'm sorry, but it's time for you to get some information on the cannibal herd"

"Whoa, I was. I'm sorry. I was going to explain when I got to the city where I'm based, but, well, now would be better because Lord Jared could suddenly have me fighting."

When asked to change the subject, Hugo's face becomes extremely serious.

"It was three days ago that their flock was found. It was in the beginning that the small herd gradually grew in number but where it appeared from, and when we realized it, we crossed a hundred, and now we have more than three hundred."

Once again, breathe in the abundance of cannibals. Even if the hell is not so strong, it makes me undeniably nervous because a troublesome enemy is forming a great army.

Above all, I couldn't help but feel physiological disgust at the presence of eating people.

"I'd like to ask you one thing - can I assume Lord Jared will join me under my command?

"Yes, please add me under command. I'm not stupid enough to act single and selfish in a strange land."

"Thank you. I'm sure you've noticed this one, thank you"

Jared can fight fine, even on land he doesn't know if he wants to.

In fact, at the request of the Society of Mages, many of them were fought on their first lands.

I would receive minimal support before being dispatched, but I never had a guide on the ground. With that in mind, a few is a pain in the ass, but if you ask me to do it, I have enough temper to try it alone.

I won't because Jared carries the title of court magician even though he's been brought forward.

There is also a secretary, one is not a magician, even if he has a martial arts mind. No, I'm not even a knight.

It was a decision based on the belief that it would also be disrespectful to take the liberty within the Duke's territory.

"Not all magicians say, but there are cases where they don't want to follow non-magicians. So like you, Jared, I'm sure you'd be more than happy to be a court magician."

"Um, excuse me. Because the Royal Magic Division is full of people like that."

"Oh, no, because it's not! Nothing bad about Ernesta."

Ernesta makes a dark face at Lily's statement, who slipped her mouth whether she was relieved by Jared the accommodating one.

As I said before I left, there still seems to be a few arrogant thought people in the Royal Sorcery Division.

Looking at Lily, who is in a hurry to apologize, I don't really think she's a Duchess Warrant lady.

Elegant, irresistible, but not similar to Olivier.

- Is it because of your youth?

I saw the city through the streets thinking that my fiancée was going to pull me off if she found out.

"You finally got it. This is the city called Murasta, which is based here. The herd is approaching just outside this city. Fortunately, my legs are slow during the day, but it's only a matter of time. I'm glad Lord Jared is here in time."

"I'm glad I made it, too"

"Then it's a fight! Try to destroy the monsters that ravage my territory!
