010. Red battlefield (1)
-Please become my precious, one and only family that I will love with all my soul.
When the foreign prince finally took her hand and whispered, the girl could only nod her head silently, unable to contain her pounding heart.
This is the story of a girl who wanted to become part of someone’s family someday.
* * *
Suddenly, he was dragged out of the tower, bound, and walked for a long time wearing an eye patch. The feel of my thin shoes is like a cold, hard stone floor.
Amelia shivered slightly as she smelled the unfamiliar smell of metal in the cool morning air.
The sounds of people, no, the sounds of soldiers. Weapons that occasionally cause friction and strange heat condensed like a dam before bursting.
Eventually, the black cloth covering her eyes was removed, and she found herself standing in the center of the castle wall.
“Look, Amelia.”
She blinked.
As soon as my eyes, which had been hidden for a long time, became accustomed to the light, the long archers and infantrymen crowded on the castle walls came into view.
Inside the castle gates, Rohan’s lancer units were ready to rush out at any moment, and thousands of infantry units lined up on both sides of the castle were immersed in quiet excitement as they waited for the battle to begin.
And the Allied troops camped out like a swarm of ants on the plain beyond the walls. Even the flag of the Holy Empire Delcross shines brightest among the Allied flags.
Only after taking in the entire scene with her eyes did Amelia turn her head to the side and make eye contact with the man holding her eyepatch.
Leonard, King of Rohan.
At one time, she had no doubt that they would become the family she loved the most in the world, but in the end, he deceived and betrayed her, pushing her life into an abyss. He was the one who framed her for her innocence and imprisoned her in her cold tower for years in order to destroy her.
Leonard looked into Amelia’s extremely dry eyes and raised one corner of his mouth.
“Yes, is it unfair? Do you blame me? But this is all the punishment the daughter of that sinful empire deserves. “Aren’t you the culprit behind this temple?”
Amelia showed no reaction. Because I knew that everything he said was actually a lie, just a fake fit.
Neither those speaking nor those listening knew who the real culprit of this war was.
The strong wind blowing over the castle walls blew her unattractively short, rosy hair.
Leonard looked at the scene for a moment as if fascinated, then raised his hand and gently touched the end.
“Romain’s plan wasn’t even half successful. “Your damn father did a great job capturing the raccoons of that kingdom.”
He messed up her hair, brushed her rough cheeks, and eventually grabbed her slender neck.
“So you have to pay for it. “I will cut off your head now and make it the beginning of this war.”
Amelia closed her eyes as she felt the hand gripping her neck tighten. She had no more regrets about her life, which was full of pain.
However, I hope that the Allied Forces will at least break this cruel man’s ambitions and thoroughly crush him so that he cannot obtain anything he desires. That was her only wish at that moment.
It was at that time that unrest broke out on the front.
The allied camp far away begins to tremble, and soon a black shadow leaps out of the camp.
Only 1 cavalry unit. It was a sudden attack that occurred without any sign of an outbreak of war.
Leonard grabbed her neck and narrowed his eyes, looking at the Allied forces’ camp. As the commotion grew louder, it seemed to be an unplanned and accidental action on the part of the enemy camp.
After a while, a group of cavalry came running one after another from the Allied camp. It seemed like they were in a hurry to chase after the lead knight.
“The author… … .”
As the figure of the leading knight got closer, the murmurs in Rohan’s camp grew stronger.
The knight’s black armor and massive stance on his back. And even a few spears next to him.
A famous man who until recently was notorious on the front lines is rushing towards the castle walls single-handedly!
“… Black devil!”
“The sword of Delcross is the devil!”
“It’s the crown prince! “He is the crown prince of Delcross!”
Ugh-
The knight in black armor pulled out a javelin. As the short spear was engulfed in an ominous dark red aura, the entire castle wall began to tremble.
Are you crazy? You’re not even in range of the arrow yet, so you’re going to throw the spear there?
“Shoot, shoot! What are archers doing? “Hurry up and shoot that guy!”
When Leonard’s orders were announced in confusion.
Whirly lick-
The arrows soared into the air, covering the sky black, and a moment later they hit the ground with terrifying acceleration.
Kwakwakwakwakwa. However, the range was still a little short. The knight ran leisurely past the field of arrows with his javelin aimed in the same position.
“Holy shit… … !”
While the archers were quickly reloading their arrows, the crown prince narrowed the distance to another 50 meters and finally threw away the javelin he had been aiming at.
Kwaaaaang!
The spear, scattering auras, flew in with terrifying force and hit the ground right in front of the castle gate. Although they were barely able to reach the castle wall, the faces of the soldiers became gaunt when they saw the deeply cratered ground.
“Um, is that a human?”
“Ready to fire! Ready to fire!”
Hundreds of arrows soar into the air all at once. The crown prince pulled out the sword from his back and created a wide sword screen with his aura, deflecting most of the arrows. However, it was not enough to block all the massive amounts of arrows coming at them.
Hee hee hee! With a shriek from the horse, he fell off his horse and rolled on the ground. I wondered if he rolled around like that and got up.
Kuaaaaang!
The javelin flew in again, and this time it landed squarely in the exact center of the castle wall.
“This is crazy… … !”
With a couple of arrows stuck in his armor, the black knight started running towards the castle wall again.
Although it was nothing compared to the speed of a horse, the tenacity with which it continued to rush towards the castle wall, with dark red aura blooming all over its body, was nothing short of terrifying. The knight commander’s neck trembled with tension as he waited to reload.
Amelia was standing on the wall, watching the whole thing while being held in Leonard’s hand. Her eyes, which had become almost insensitive, trembled slightly, showing emotional turmoil for the first time.
Even though she herself had given up on her own life, someone else had not yet given up. And he is running without a moment of hesitation to a place that is sure to be a fatal accident.
Whirly lick-
The rain of arrows fell mercilessly towards the crown prince once again. But this time, he was not the only one to confront it. This is because a group of knights who ran after the prince who had left the camp without permission managed to catch up with him while their attacks were concentrated on him and raised their shields all at once.
Ride, ride, ride. The shield created by intertwining the shields instantly became a honeycomb.
“hey! “You crazy bastard!”
An unidentified knight threw away a worn-out shield and shouted something evil at His Majesty the Crown Prince.

Leonard chewed his lips nervously.
“… Can I reach it? “Can you reach here?”
The knights formed a circle with the crown prince in the center and began to advance little by little.
Before we knew it, we were within direct firing range and arrows began to rain down indiscriminately, but everyone in the group seemed to be of a high level as Auror users, so they took turns deploying their swords and narrowed the distance to the castle wall.
The crown prince was frantically swatting arrows away with his bare face exposed, as if he had lost his helmet while rolling on the floor.
Fierce-looking eyes and a jawline that has become slightly sharper with age. It was a familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar face to Amelia. In the meantime, half of her light blonde hair is soaked in blood, as if she had been grazed by an arrow.
“… Mores.”
I didn’t think we had a close relationship with each other since we were young. But then, I was thinking about why that child was trying so desperately to reach her.
At the same time, the two people’s similar gray eyes met each other.
Moment. Mores’ eyes widened.
Phuuk-
A sharp pain spread through my right chest.
“… … !”
Amelia lowered her head and stared at the dagger lodged in her chest. The blood stains spreading red on the shabby dress are as unrealistic as blooming flower petals.
I slowly turned my head, following the hand holding the dagger, and looked at Leonard’s face. His eyes were extremely desperate, but at the same time, his mouth was showing a bitter smile.
“If you are so important to them, what can they do? I have no choice but to send it. one… … .”
“… … .”
“… “I will never hand you over safely.”
Toouk.
She was standing at the edge of the castle wall, relying on Leonard’s hand, and was easily pushed out of the wall with just a gentle push.
“Amelia!”
She fell helplessly to the ground, hearing Mores screaming her name from afar.
What you see beyond the upside-down view is a blue sky that is as calm as a lie. I thought I could see a bird disappearing beyond the clouds, but then I lost consciousness.
The sound of someone yelling, screaming, or clashing weapons. The sound of flesh cracking.
“… Amelia, Amelia! sister! Wake!”
And Amelia opened her eyes as the sound continued to call her.
Cough! As soon as I cough, my chest feels like it’s burning. She rolled her eyes and looked around.
In the middle of the battlefield where troops from both sides clash. Mores plopped down next to the lying Amelia, her gauntlet-less hand pressed to her chest where her dagger was sheathed.
“what… … !”
I wanted to call his name, but no sound came out. The dagger may have damaged his lungs, but every time he tried to take a breath, a sound of wind could be heard, and blood leaked from his mouth.
“pee… . Don’t talk, just stay still, sister. The wound is opening up. I think I received it well when I fell, but the spot where I got stabbed wasn’t that bad… … .”
Mores spoke soothingly as he gently pushed down Amelia, who continued to struggle.
“But my father will come in a little while. Those injuries are nothing to that guy, so you don’t have to worry. “You know this well, right?”
The younger brother’s face also turned pale due to tension. He continued to talk to her, as if he wanted to reassure Amelia and at the same time give her confidence in herself.
“Hold on a moment. Amelia. Just hold on a little longer, and once your father arrives, everything will be alright… … .”
Ah, your Majesty. father.
Thinking of him, tears began to well up in Amelia’s dry eyes for the first time in many years.
After opposing her marriage with Leonard to the end and almost disowning him and becoming a monk, she never once sent a message to her father. Now that she has come, even if she meets him again, what can Amelia say?
Mores, who had sensed her guilt, spoke in a low whisper.
“Amelia. That gentleman is always thinking about and worrying about his sister. She wasn’t mad at me at all, so when I saw her face later, I just pretended not to notice and smiled. Understand?”
“… … .”
“I was so discouraged after losing Logan not long ago that it was a little scary. If something goes wrong with you, I don’t know where that guy will end up. “That guy needs a sister.”
Amelia opened her eyes wide and looked up at his face at the soft tone that was uncharacteristic of Mores. He hadn’t been looking at Amelia since just now. Unfocused gray eyes are staring blankly into space.
Now that I think about it, I thought it was because of nervousness, but why is his face so pale?
“… And at this point, I’d like to briefly apologize. I’m sorry for immaturely speaking rudely and tormenting you when I was young. I did everything wrong… … .”
Amelia, who was closely examining Mores, was startled. She didn’t realize it because they were facing each other, but her armor behind his back was already filled with dozens of arrows.
Most of the blood that was soaking the hand that was pressing Amelia’s chest was his own blood.
Amelia realized that he must have jumped into the rain of arrows to catch her as she fell from the castle wall. Even though she fell from such a high place, why was there no other wound on her, and why wasn’t even one of her arrows grazed her?
In that split-second moment, Mores poured out all his strength for Amelia.
And only then did they notice the voices of the knights surrounding them shouting at the top of their lungs.
“Please hold on just a little longer, Your Majesty!”
“Anyway, you always go out of your way, right? huh? Prince, we’ll see when you get out of here!”
“Your Majesty is coming soon! majesty! “You must not lose your mind!”
Amelia sobbed helplessly as she felt Mores’ breathing gradually become more frequent.
iced coffee. It’s because of me.
Because I came to Rohan on my own, my father had to continue engaging in unfavorable diplomacy, and my younger brother, the crown prince, had to rush to the death that was clearly planned.
And despite all their sacrifices, she ultimately dies as a burden to them.
It was then that the sky suddenly began to turn red.
