"Ah, Master Ellenbauer. The men who attacked us seem to be General Malfez and the Kingsguards."

"And even the Lerim court magician who should have stopped the army... Shit, did he still move the army south?"

battlefield on a stone bridge that became glued.

Rushing there, Ellen Bauer bites her back teeth hard as she stares at the Kingsguards in front of her with hatred.

He then gives one order in a bitter tone when he moves to a subordinate who has immediately reported his gaze.

"Bring him."

"Who?"

My man Ketel overhears Ellen Bauer's words without a purpose.

His boss then turned to him in a tone that could not hide his anger.

"Don't you get it? I'm asking you to bring the hostage, the princess and the aluminum. The Kingsguards are the best in the army. Very angry, but I don't have the option to do it properly with them."

Originally, Ketel also intended to understand Kingsguard, an almost independent organization within the military.

Never having thought of anything like being together on the battlefield, however, he finally realizes the first of the circumstances in which they were placed by the yelling of Ellenbauer.

"Wow, I get it. Immediately!"

And it came to pass, and Ketel drew the other soldiers, and rushed out into the castle.

In the castle, which became like a stuffed shell because almost every soldier paid for it anymore.

Ketel keeps running indifferently through it.

And as his breath began to rise gently, he finally reached the place he had been destined for.

"What's up? What's going on out there?

With Ketel in its eyes, who has rushed in breathlessly, Sawashin, entrusted with the guardianship of a room with hostages, gives a worrying look.

"Ha, ha... it's Kingsguard. The Kingsguards came here. If we don't use the hostages to hold them down right now, we're in danger."

Ketel tells his colleagues in front of him what he saw earlier and what his superiors ordered him to do.

Then, hearing a completely unexpected word, Sawashin couldn't hide his surprise from that look.

"He said it was a Kingsguard. They're supposed to be guarding the royal palace."

"But we actually have them. I don't have time to stick around. Open that door quickly and I'll take you both under Master Ellenbauer."

Considers it impossible because Ketel himself, earlier, was in a similar condition to Sawashin, who is clearly upset.

But now that he couldn't afford to worry about that, he blocked Sawashin's words and conveyed orders from his superiors in a strong tone.

"Wow, okay. Open the door now."

From that sword screen of Ketel, Sawashin realised that the situation was truly imminent, rushed to take the key he had laid on his hips.

Then plug it into the keyhole in the door of the room, and he turns the key around.

The sound of cacilli emanating from the inside of the door.

But suddenly, a louder noise jumped into Sawashin's ear, which held the key.

That's a dull sound coming from the rear.

And soon afterwards, the vibration of someone falling to the ground echoes around.

"Hey, what's up?

Sawashin looks back as he stifles his face, feeling an ominous hunch that is hard to describe.

And at the next moment, his consciousness was to be cut off there.

"Father..."

Enough magical shock to convey to this room where you are under house arrest.

With that in mind, Luna turned to her father and turned her gaze.

"Oh, perhaps help has come. I don't know who it is."

"So that's what your father said, that maybe it wasn't the Rhindle Army that came here?

House arrest room with only minimal simple conditioning items.

I felt the army had come to help me, so the aluminum, sitting on a hard bed, nodded one with a harsh look, as opposed to Luna with a bright look on her face.

"The previous king and princess are being held hostage. Under the circumstances that preceded the Western Conference, Kayla was able to dispatch troops on her own."

"So did you ask the luxuries around here for help?

As far as the private soldiers of this surrounding luxury were concerned, they could not be expected to have much sufficient force.

For, unlike the South, which will always be in contact with Clarice and Kisletin, only a large number of armies are available in this northern region to prepare for skirmishes between lords. And the degree of proficiency was not to mention.

That's why Luna looks anxious.

Then the aluminum, after a little thought, let me also mention another possibility.

"Maybe. Or did you send a handful of troops in secrecy? Either way, from now on, our lives will be next to further danger."

"Instead of being released by help......?

"Of course they're all gone, and if help comes here, we'll be in full swing. But when the battle begins, the men who captured us will try to push us forward. That's why he kept us alive."

It's just a matter of interest, trying to take the royal family hostage, that's impossible.

Of course, we didn't know what the people who captured us were thinking, but at least under these circumstances, we couldn't think of aluminum such as not using our value as hostages.

"That's true. Okay, now."

"Oh, let's bring us here. To be their shield."

The aluminum so mouthed exhales a loud sigh.

Himself, from the time he was imprisoned, had one decision in his chest.

As hostages of the people, it is prepared to kill itself, even if it bites off its tongue, if it becomes a matter of pulling the legs of the kingdom any further.

If he was the only one imprisoned this time, he would have already attempted self-harm by any means.

But he hasn't chosen that option so far.

Because I hold my fist in front of him, the presence of his own daughter didn't let him make that decision.

So his beloved daughter turns to aluminum and takes a serious look

"Then Father, let us be prepared too. We can't go any further to be a nuisance to our country."

"You're still young. Don't even think about killing yourself. On the contrary, step on my life, but think about getting out of here."

From the color of his daughter's eyes, he decided that she had come to the same conclusion. That's why I tell him to flatter his daughter.

But what the girl in front of him had in mind was a great departure from his imagination.

"End your life? I wouldn't do anything pointless like that. We need to get out of here, take your father."

"Luna... you..."

"If it's what your father expected, they'll be here soon. I mean, the timing is the only chance we have left."

When she smiles nicely, Luna laughs at the aluminum.

Aluminum feared for a moment what he had said to his daughter in front of him and the abnormality with which he grinned in this situation.

But he soon finds out.

To the fact that her beloved daughter's feet, smiling and mouthing a forceful counterattack, are trembling with anxiety and fear.

That's why he made one decision.

The decision to entrust fate to the suggestion of her daughter, who is so healthy and utterly vain.

"Okay. Do whatever you want. I will whip this old body, and I will slap him."

When he said so, the aluminum tried to make a force bubble out of his diluted arm.

To the approval and care of such a father, Luna accidentally accumulates Shizuku in his eyes.

But now, judging that it was not time to immerse herself in sentiment, she moved herself to the enemy's blind spot, that is, directly next to the door.

That's how we wait. Often, something that suddenly sounds like a yell from outside the door sounds in the room.

"Father."

Luna turns to her father in a small voice to avoid being touched by the human outside.

Then, to attract the eye of the enemy who came into the room, the aluminum moved itself to the corner of the room opposite her daughter.

When you're ready that way, you two lurk your breath.

The sound of unlocking the door sounding in the room.

The moment she hears it, Luna grips her fist hard.

And just a few moments later, the door to the room slowly opened.

"Eat!"

With a honking voice that is very unlikely to be a royal utterance, Luna slaps herself in the fist as she jumps out of the blind spot of the door to the shadow that has entered the room.

But at the next moment, when she is taken by that fist, she is thrown backwards using her own power as it is.

"Oh, this is a rough welcome."

The brunette, who suddenly takes the form of eating an unexpected blow, smiles bitterly at the unexpected welcome of her godchild.

Then at the next moment, the aluminum raised its surprise at the emergence of an unexpected person.

"Hero Hall!

"Oh, Master Aluminum. We're out of time. Now I'm a researcher named Ein Gotch... and you're behind on that story. In the meantime, I'm here to help."

Ain laughs shyly and says so.

"If the explosion outside, is that better?

"No, no, that was Mr. Relim's fault. Because I can't use normal magic. More importantly, aluminum seems to be safe."

That said, Ain exchanged hands with the aluminum.

And then finally, I look back to the rear with my own gently tossed goddaughter.

Ahead of Ain's gaze directed.

There was a girl thrown lightly in the rear, taken by another rescuer.

"Dear Luna, are you all right"

"Senior Ferm! Why are you here? Please put it down!

To the status quo, which was not expected at all, Luna rushes to escape from Ferm's arms as she dyes her face bright red.

"Hey, I'll put it down, suddenly -"

Suddenly Luna moves, so Fermu breaks the balance and falls down with his buttocks on the spot.

That's how Luna and Ferm overlapped on the ground, and at first glance it took shape like Luna pushed down Ferm.

Seeing that sight as if it were a comedy, Ain scratches his head with a bitter smile, and he utters a nagging word to the princess.

"Hey, Master Luna looks good too"

"Damn...... right. But I never thought I'd be thrown away by the lords who came to help me."

As if to delude the lighting, which has taken the form of a hug on the Ferm, Luna hurriedly rises up and raises a protest mixed voice.

"Ha. But if I were to say that, I didn't think I'd be suddenly beaten up by a princess who was supposed to be waiting for help, either."

"... In any case, I'm glad I wasn't hit by an enemy. Because some confidence that I had built up in my daily workouts was about to be lost in an instant. By the way, Doctor, how did you get here?

Luna turns to try to turn the subject away, still keeping her face bright red.

Then, earlier, she would hit the back of her head with her weight, and Ain turned his gaze to the young man who was still grumbling.

"He did his best, didn't he? He made his way to this castle."

"Senior Ferm!?"

Possibility that Ein will come to help.

Even if I thought it was almost non-existent, it would be a lie to say that I had not considered the possibility at all.

But I didn't imagine at all that Ferm would come here with Luna, and there was something about an earlier incident, and she couldn't utter any more words.

"Yeah. Anyway, I didn't come here to kick my enemies, so I'm not going to stay very long. Mr. Malfez will not be able to move on until we can confirm that he has rescued you both."

"... ok. So, what do we do?

When he nods loudly at Ain's words, the aluminum asks him what he does next.

"Yes, and besides, Master Aluminum, I have one favor to ask you."

"Please? If everything you need to do to break this situation, follow that person's instructions. Say anything."

Aluminum leaves all its discretion to the man in front of it, even as memories of once being mentioned in a very similar question are chilling.

Then the dark-haired man scratched his head and opened its mouth with sorrow.

"Then I'm sorry, but would you please give me the life of the princess who is here for just a moment? Since you seem to be doing so well, I'm going to ask you to help me open things up a little bit with the young people there."
