When the defensive battle was over in Zeat, Sylvia was praying for Leolde's safety at night in the royal capital. On the balcony connected to the window of her room, she looked up at the moonlight night and thought about Leolde who was far away.
While Silvia was praying for Leolde's safety, the enemy hand crept up on her.
The assassin sent by the emperor was slowly sneaking up on Silvia.
The assassin quietly swung his blade at Silvia as she prayed.
"I won't let you do that."
However, the blade not reached Sylvia. The assassin was about to stab Sylvia in the back when a man stood in front of him.
When the assassin sees the man standing in front of him, he lets out a cry of astonishment.
"Richto Reinbach! Why are you here!""
The startled assassin knew that Richto was not supposed to be here. The assassin had found out beforehand that Richto was the king's personal bodyguard.
If so, why he is here? Let's go back to before Leolde infiltrated the imperial capital.
◆◇◆◇
Before leaving for the imperial capital, Leorde had approached the king with a request .
."I would like you to keep Lord Lichtow with His Highness Sylvia during the war."
"Why? Sylvia has her own bodyguard, Rebecca, who is always with her."
"It may not be enough. I'm sure the Empire is looking into His Highness Sylvia's skills and they'll send assassins to try and kill her ."
"Hmm. It's true , but Rebecca has the ability to be chosen as a knight of the Kingsguard. She will not be defeated so easily."
"Your Majesty. You know that there are ancient relics in the empire that we don't know about. If any of those relics are suitable for assassination, even a knight of the Kingsguard might fall behind.
"It's a possibility, but does the Empire really need to go that far? Besides, Sylvia's skills are highly useful. There's no need to kill her. At least I'd keep her alive and use her."
"That's true, but think about it. From the current emperor's point of view, Her Highness Sylvia's skills may be attractive, but it would be very troublesome for him to invade the kingdom."
"Besides, we have transference magic. If we use her Highness Sylvia's skills to hunker down and use transference magic to provide supplies, we can fight them semi-permanently. Would he really leave such a troublesome enemy alive?"
That's right. When that is said, he want to kill her first. For the emperor who advocates continental unification, is Sylvia's skill only an obstacle? Sacred Barrier is a powerful skill but has many drawbacks
It's invincible against monsters , but it's almost useless against people. She can block magic, but can't block swords, bows , etc
But do you really think they will come after her ?"
"I don't know, ....... I have no proof."
"So that's your prediction?"
"Yes, ......."
Just because it's a prediction doesn't mean that Richto, the strongest man in the kingdom, can be removed from his position as the king the highest authority in the kingdom. Especially if there is going to be a war.
However, the king took into consideration Leolde's past achievements and came to a conclusion.
"All right. Leorle. You're right. I'll have Richto escort Sylvia only during the war.
At these words, the dark expression on Leolde's face brightened.
Are you sure ,Your Majesty?
"Yes."
The king smiled as he nodded to Leolde, who couldn't help but ask him back, that he wasn't kidding.
"By the way, are you really that worried about Sylvia?"
In contrast to the previous atmosphere, the relative's uncle spoke to Leolde with a grin, as if he was curious about his nephew's love life.
"What? No, it's just, well, I'm worried."
These were the words he was thinking from the bottom of his heart. Leolde knew that Sylvia would die basing on his knowledge of game. But that's just a game.
This world is unmistakably reality. Then, unlike in the game, it is possible to die from other factors.
That's why Leorde thought about what it would be like if he were the emperor. As a result, he thought that the most troublesome enemy would be Sylvia.
After all, her sacred barrier skills were extremely powerful. The wards that reject anything related to monster and can repel not only monsters but even magic.
No matter how hard you push with numbers, you can't defeat the royal capital. It is protected by sacred barriers and even if you try to force your way through, you will be hindered by magic.
If they wanted to challenge such an impossible task, it would be faster to send an assassin to kill Sylvia. Everyone would have thought the same thing.
That's why Leolde has been giving Sylvia valuable magic tools as gifts, because he doesn't want her to die. Even so, he felt it was not enough, so this time he asked the king to send Richto as escort.
However, the king, who didn't know anything about it, thought that Leold was becoming attracted to Sylvia and asked him if he was worried.
"Oh, really?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. If anything were to happen to Her Highness, we'd be in trouble."
(Sylvia, it seems that things are not as simple as they seem.)
The king, who is aware of Sylvia's feelings, saw Leolde's condition and guessed. T that he was not familiar with the field of love.
After that, the king appointed Richto as Sylvia's bodyguard, but only during war.
