Episode 228. Reorganization Day (7)
The assembly hall became confused due to the appearance of mist.
People each shouted towards the podium.
“Let go of the princess!”
“What is the Emperor doing? “Without saving the princess!”
“Eight! “Go to my country too!”
A chaotic situation where appeals to save the princess and cries to kill the assassins were mixed together.
Violet had no choice but to get angry.
In my heart, I wanted to cut off the heads of those black monsters in one fell swoop and then bring Arin away.
However, as if they were trying to prevent such a situation thoroughly, the assassins did not even try to remove the sword from Arin’s neck.
The knights were helpless, unable to do anything.
“What on earth are you two doing in the meantime?”
To make matters worse, Eshel and Boris couldn’t even be seen where they were or what they were doing.
In the end, she had to solve the current situation entirely on her own.
In response, Violette gave orders to the knights.
“Kill me.”
“yes?”
The knights who thought they had heard it wrong all questioned it in unison.
“Kill them all! They are the source of evil that despises the empire and the imperial family! Arin wouldn’t want to be used as a hostage either! She just gave me a signal with her eyes! “I would rather die than be shown such shame!”
Violette’s eyes were already so red and bloodshot that she couldn’t make normal decisions.
“B-but no matter what… … !”
“Come out!”
In the end, Violet, who was worse off, came forward, defeating the knights.
A large amount of mana soon appeared in both her hands, and soon a white magic circle and dark clouds appeared in the air above the platform.
“Princess, calm down! That magic is dangerous!”
“I take responsibility!”
The surprised knights approached to dissuade her, but Violette paid no attention.
The moment everyone was embarrassed, as they couldn’t even touch the princess’s body.
“Put it on. Princess.”
An old man appeared on the stage and grabbed her arm.
Surprised, Violette opened her eyes wide and looked at the rude man who dared to hold her hand.
“Judgments that are biased toward emotions tend to bring about anger. “In situations like this, you need to be even more calm.”
“Oh, Captain Jereon?”
It was Jereon, the leader of the Old Knights of Light.
Unlike Violet, who was completely embarrassed, the knights looked relieved, as if a savior had arrived.
“I’m the one in charge here! “No one can go against my will!”
“I know you’re confused. But didn’t the princess ask me to be her savior? “The princess is now trying to take the path of self-destruction. How could I not take action?”
Violette, who was suddenly speechless, could not reply and only twitched her lips.
Jereon gently let go of the princess’s hand and then slowly approached the assassins.
The lionesses, who sensed an unusual energy, became even more alert.
“I still don’t know what your purpose is, but it looks like they are trying to buy time to me.”
Some assassins reacted slightly agitated.
“Is the princess there really Princess Arin?”
“No questions are asked. “Take three steps away from that place.”
As if there were no two warnings, the assassin opened his mouth and narrowed the distance between the sword and Arin even closer.
“You seem to be misunderstanding something, but I know that the princess who is there right now is not real.”
“… … !”
“But the reason I’m not telling you this is that I might cooperate with you depending on the situation.”
It was a low-pitched voice that only they could hear.
The assassins’ gaze was colored with anxiety for a moment and then disappeared.
“There is no need to talk at length. Just tell me briefly what your real purpose is. Then, I will cooperate with you in buying the time you are trying to do… … .”
“Punish evil with the power of the Supreme God!”
-Kwazijic
A strange moment of negotiation took place for a while.
Soon, a spell for advanced magic was chanted behind Jereon’s back.
Jereon, startled, quickly raised his head and looked up.
However, Violet, who had already lost her temper, had completed casting the spell, and soon lightning rained down on their heads.
“Gods Strike!”
* * *
“Ha!”
It took only one year for him to develop from a promising player with a bright future to a trustworthy knight protecting the imperial family.
Even though she was so young and had just reached adulthood, no one within the castle questioned her skills.
Some people even called her this.
The princess’s sword.
A reliable knight and sword that protects Princess Arin.
The knights unanimously said that they would never be able to reach Princess Arin without defeating her.
“… … !”
It’s been almost 5 minutes since we clashed swords.

During that short period of time, Eshel could not take a single step forward.
Just as I was barely able to stop the series of attacks that were swirling so fast that I couldn’t predict exactly where they were aimed, Princess Arin’s strike followed.
-visor!
Faced with stronger resistance than expected, Eshel took a few steps back.
“Resimus Klein… … . Should I say it is the princess’s sword? Even though there are articles like this, I am once again wondering why the princess was kidnapped.”
Resimus was unfazed by Eshel’s mocking laughter.
“Now that I think about it, Resimus, you are the only guardian knight of the imperial family who has not inherited the power of the Holy Sword, right? What is the reason? A knight like you would surely have been able to raise the Holy Sword’s potential to a higher level than anyone else, right?”
“No matter how great the power of the Holy Sword is, in the end, it is a borrowed power.”
Resimus answered in a firm tone.
“I don’t want to rely on such an uncertain force that I don’t know when it will leave my side. “The only strength needed to protect the princess is the strength I have achieved myself.”
“What a great mindset! “There’s a lot of applause.”
Eshel continued to applaud as if she was truly amazed.
“Then I too must save you with all my heart.”
Then, as if to exert its power in earnest, the concentrated power of the holy sword was unleashed.
“… … !”
Resimus, who felt an unusual force, straightened his posture.
‘Is this the true power of the Holy Sword?’
It was definitely different from other knights who had previously inherited the power of the holy sword.
A state that seems to demonstrate with one’s own hands that this is the true power of the owner.
As a prosecutor, it was definitely a force that evoked a sense of wonder and tension, but
“I’m a little disappointed.”
Resimus let out a laugh and the word disappointment.
At this, Eshel’s expression slightly distorted.
“The power that Xian showed was much more outstanding. He instilled in him the fear that he could die just by facing him… … .”
In the end, a small sculpture was formed around the mouth.
“The power of the Holy Sword is actually cute and laughable. “If it was only this much strength, I think it would have been better not to have received it.”
Although it seemed like she was shaken by the unexpected provocation, Eshel soon responded with a relaxed smile.
“The holy sword is not a magic sword. “It’s not there to scare people.”
“When did I say it was the power of a magic sword?”
Resimus’ eyes flashed as if to tell him not to be mistaken.
“Sian-nim did not even reveal the power of the magic sword in front of me. The reason I felt fear was because of the natural strength he possessed. Strictly speaking, the level he reached was… … .”
When I remember that day, I still feel chills running through my body.
Just by looking into his eyes, he felt intense pressure and fear throughout his entire body, a state where he was literally not human.
“It was at a level that could not be compared to Eshel.”
That was Sian.
A being who felt awe beyond fear, to the point where one wondered if there was really anyone in this world who could beat him.
Compared to that, Eshel was just a rabbit in front of a tiger.
There were no negative emotions such as fear in her eyes.
“Stand back. Resimus.”
With Resimus holding her back, Arin stepped forward.
“I agree with what Resimus said. The power that Xian showed was by no means light. “My efforts over the years to turn the impossible into the possible were in vain in an instant.”
So, he decided to give up everything and die directly at Xian’s hands.
However, Xian saved Arin, and that is why she can be here now.
“I have a sincerity. Desperate desire to follow someone’s footsteps. But Prince Eshel doesn’t have that. “When two people with the same strength come together, the one with earnestness ultimately wins.”
“There is a contradiction in what you say. “Are you saying that the princess can use the power she received from me to handle it better than I can?”
“You’ll figure it out when you stick with it.”
With bold words and actions, Arin displayed the power of the holy sword she received from Eshel.
“Please show me somewhere. Eshel Ball. “The power of a true savior that you possess!”
As if reacting to the energy, a resonance occurred between Arin’s body and the sword, and soon, sparkling wings of light began to sprout behind her back.
Arin soon spread her wings completely and looked at Eshel with determined eyes.
Eshel faced her with somewhat dejected eyes.
“There is only one path to the right order right in front of us, so why is everyone so full of distrust and doubt? “I really don’t understand.”
Then, with a confused sigh, I looked up at the sky.
It was a look rarely seen from him, who was always full of leisure.
“Since when did it start to go wrong? “At some point, fog began to form in front of me, which was only a path of light, blocking my path.”
As if he was trying to vent out the anger he had built up, he finally went limp and raised his voice.
There’s something so strange that it almost feels bizarre.
The two women’s faces froze at the same time.
“draft. Ever since that child began to stand out in her family. My path has become dark. People who truly believe in me and follow me unconditionally! “You are questioning me instead of trusting me!”
“There is nothing in this world that must be followed unconditionally! Even if it’s you, the owner of the holy sword… … !”
“The princess’s negative feelings ultimately came from Xian.”
Eshel’s face stiffened horribly at Arin’s denial.
The subtle anger was clearly visible in his eyes, as was his stern face.
“I will change my mind. “First, I will first clear up the wrong doubts that the princess harbored within herself.”
Eshel raised the holy sword while saying something unclear.
“I will personally purify not only the princess, but everyone who has been touched by Xian.”
Soon, a resonance occurred with a brilliant light from the holy sword, and wings of light appeared on Eshel’s back.
It was a much larger and more majestic wing than Arin’s wings.
However, Arin did not show it, but instead took her steps and advanced forward.
-visor!
When the holy sword and the sword of the princess, who had inherited the power of the holy sword, clashed, a strong wave arose in the surrounding area.
The moment the swords met, Arin immediately realized.
This is a power he cannot easily handle.
But I had to deal with it.
Because this is nothing compared to the power of Xian,
Arin gathered all her strength, thinking that if she could endure this ordeal, she would be able to at least grab the hem of Xian’s clothes once again.
“Look at me.”
In the midst of such desperation, Eshel, who was fighting with his sword, called Arin.
What Arin suddenly saw when she looked away was,
“… … ?!”
Eshel’s eyes were shining with an unknown bright red light.
“From now on, the princess will only look at me and think that I am everything in this world.”
Were you attracted to his beauty?
Arin was unable to resist or protest.
“Not only the princess, but soon everyone in this world will be looking at me! “I, Eshel Wert, am the only truth in this world!!!”
A dazed mind and blurred vision.
Eventually, the inside of my body gradually began to heat up.
The more I looked into Eshel’s eyes, the more uncomfortable I felt, but for some reason I couldn’t take my eyes off her.
The moment when your body and mind gradually become confused by an unknown force,
“I see you sensed a lot of humor even though I didn’t see you.”
A familiar voice was heard from behind me.
“… … !”
Arin, who recognized the owner of the voice, immediately turned her head.
There, with a smile of joy on his lips,
“For the first time in a while, I laughed so hard.”
Xi’an was there.
