The nobles in the meeting room buzzed when they heard the name mentioned by Leolde.

 All of them were wondering why in the world  h would want Siegfried, a new knight, to accompany  him .

"' Leolde. Why Siegfried?

 "I can understand if it's your subordinate, but will you tell me why you chose a mere novice knight?"

"Yes, the reason why I chose Siegfried is because I knew his power when I fought him  on  the arena. His power may still be in its infancy, but it could shine if he polished it."

 "Besides, Siegfried originally had a high score in the tournament, so I think it's not a bad choice."

"That's true, but are you sure?

"If it's the past, we've already let it slide. So there is no problem."

"I see. Well, if it's okay with you, then I'll leave the rest to you."

"Yes! Please leave it to me!"

 The meeting continued for a while and ended with Baynard taking command of Zeat instead of Leode.

 

As Leolde walked out of the room, Christina followed behind him. When she called out to him from behind, he turned around.

" Sir  Leolde, ......!

"What can I do for you, Your Highness?

"Thank you for  that '

"- That ? Oh, you mean Siegfried?"

"Yes. I was wondering, did you know what I was thinking and that's why you appointed Siegfried?"

 After being told that, Leolde guessed what Christina had been thinking.

(...... Ah, maybe, but Chris wanted Sieg to get the credit. Was she planning to use it to bridge the gap between  herself and  him and get married?)

 (That's the only way for them to get together, isn't it?)

 (If it  was a game, he would be  get more and more achievements , so it would be easy for him to get married, but in reality, it would be difficult.s )

 It's not that easy to marry a royal. Well, I was forced to marry  one for reviving the transfer magic. ......)

 When Leolde was silent and thoughtful for a while, Christina, who was in front of him, was wondering what to do. She wondered if she should call out to him or wait until LeoldE spoke.

 However, since this was the corridor of the royal castle and they would be seen by many people, Christina thought it would be a bad idea to stay alone for too long, so she decided to call out to LeoldE.

"Um,   sir Leoldo?"

"Hmm? Oh, I'm sorry, Your Highness. I was just thinking about something."

"No, that's all right, but what  was you thinking about earlier?"

"Siegfried, you mean. It is simply to raise the level of strength."

 I" know Siegfried's ability because I have fought him twice. That's why I chose him. That's all I'm saying."

 He can guess why his highness took the trouble to come into the meeting and recommend Siegfried.

"Haha ......!"

(Well, I did mean it when I nominated Sieg. If that's true, I'd rather have Commander Baynard or Richto , but since that's impossible, if you're thinking in terms of strength, Sieg is more appropriate.)

 Christina blushed, but as Leolde said, if he pushed Siegfried that much at the meeting, it would be easy to imagine that unless she was too stupid.

He  found out that Christina has a crush on Siegfried.

 He'd like to think that's okay for the third princess, but  he  guess it's okay that the king doesn't say anything.

"I'll take my leave now.

"Oh, yes. Thank you for taking the trouble to answer my question."

"No, this is nothing.

 After receiving words of gratitude from Christina, Leolde decided to go to  his father before returning to  his own domain, Ze'at.

 He used the transference magic circle in the royal castle to visit his family's house , and reported the incident to them.

 He told his family that he was responsible for the mission of  attack on the emperor. Beluga was at the meeting and knew about it, so he was not surprised, but the other three were very surprised.

"Leolde! Are you sure you're okay? You might be fighting the Flame Emperor, the guardian god of the empire, right?"

 Olivia couldn't help but listen to what Leolde  had to say. She grabbed both of Leolde's shoulders and rocked him violently back and forth as she questioned him, causing his head to bob and his vision to shake.

"Yes,  Mother, please calm down."

"You can't be calm, can you?"

"The place you're heading to is much more dangerous than a battlefield!"

 "No matter how strong you are, you are facing the Empire's most powerful Flame Emperor. What parent wouldn't be worried about their son going to his death?"

 

"I understand that very well. The only other candidate besides me was Gilbert."

 "Gilbert is a retired man. I'm grateful that he agreed to my request, but I can't let him do it again."

"Then there must be some other way. It's not too late. I want you to know that this ..."

"Mother. I have caused so much trouble for so many people. I was entrusted with the future of our country. So will you please watch over me?""

"......! You've already paid your dues. That's enough ......!"

"That's right! Brother Leo has atoned for his sins so much so that he can make up for his past! "

 So, Brother Leo, please don't go to ......."

"Brother. I also think that Mother and Leila are right. You have contributed enough to your country. Please don't   burden yourself any more!"

 Leoldo's resolve wavered as his mother and his once-hated brother and sister argued with him.

 The three of them were right, he could have declined. However, he knew what awaited him if he did so.

 His beloved family, his trusted subordinates.

 They would be overrun and killed by the empire.

 He didn't want that kind of ending. If it were a game, Siegfried would solve the problem, but in reality, that's not the case.

 Leolde changed it. So he decides that if he has changed it, he will just  take responsible  for it .

(I didn't want to die, so I worked hard. This time,  I doesn't want to lose  people i caring for , so   i will do  my best.)

 (Ah. Let's do it.)

 (Don't think you're just a cunning dog, fate.)

( If it's a fate I can't escape, I'll fight it!)
