With Reinhard tell how he finding Felt in the slum there is a commotion from the government official, and the one who have the loudest voice is a guy named Ricket who even make rude statements to Emilia.
Among the silent remaining candidates, Priscilla, her arms crossed with a bored expression, spat out, "—How long are you going to entertain this boring, pointless discussion?"
As all eyes fell upon the girl, her full bosom shook above her folded arms.
"Even if it is in name only, five have been ȧssembled so the process can commence. All we need do is begin, and the unworthy will be culled in due course. After all, I shall be the last one standing. Whether the excess baggage is qualified to be king or not is completely beside the point."
Priscilla's brash, irrational argument drew a heated reaction from Felt.
"Ahh…?"
She leaped down from the dais and glared at Priscilla head-on.
"I was thinking earlier you were a good-looking chick, but I guess it's a flower bed inside your head, too, huh? If you wanna pick a fight, I'm game. Everyone knows with me you get more than you bargained for."
"Such arrogance. Do you know who I am…?"
"Ha, like I'd know…!"
Felt brushed off Priscilla's statement with a loud laugh. Priscilla's eyes cruelly narrowed.
Al shouted from beside him, "Princess, this is—"
He must have known exactly what Priscilla was about to do. Then, at Al's shout, a gust wind cut across the chamber. Reinhard moved directly in front of her in a split second and spoke in a quiet voice.
"—Pardon me, Lady Priscilla."
In the literal blink of an eye, the knight, on one knee on the dais a moment before, had come between the two royal candidates. The red-haired knight was facing the orange-haired girl—and behind him, Emilia held Felt close to protect her.
Emilia's violet eyes filled with anger as she chewed Priscilla out.
"Such hostility in an important place like this… What are you thinking?!"
However, Priscilla waved off the nuisance with a hand, numb to any pangs of guilt.
"I am merely teaching an untrained bitch her proper place. After all, impoliteness toward me can only be repaid with one's life."
Emilia pressed the point against the unrepentant Priscilla.
"Won't you say you're sorry? Or do you actually not realize you've done something wrong?"
For an instant, the words made Priscilla's face go blank. Then, she glanced at Emilia with bȧrėly constrained laughter.
"Ahh, this is most amusing. I have rarely been so entertained. You may take that as a compliment."
"What a disagreeable child you are. What are you talking a—"
"One should apologize for doing something wrong, you say? If that is the case, why do you not apologize, silver-haired half-elf? In your case, 'I'm sorry I was ever born.'"
A pair of sharp eyes, and a worry looking face.
"I-I have…no relationship to the Witch…"
"Does such an excuse mean anything to anyone? You are the spitting image of the being that is taboo to the world. The very sight of you fills people with fear and makes their hearts tremble. Is that not why you cover yourself and obscure your appearance?"
Assaulted on all sides by Priscilla's acrimonious words, Emilia silently bowed her pale face.
And loud sounds of explosion and a shockwave is rocking the room.
Arthur with his hand in chopping motion is stopped by Al who defend it use his back sword, but even with his large build, he still bring down to his knee.
In just physical strength alone Al found out he is can't stop him if Arthur decide to use more strength than this.
"Hoo.. you're quite fast"
"Well, the moment you change your foot position, i know you will act, but really , buddy can you at least let me standing, it's not good to make a man in his forties kneeling like this"
"Hmm, i will se how you handle it"
"Princess, can you just apologize for this once? Please, adding more enemies here is put us on a bind, one of it is sword saint, well he is better because he will not attack you because of your position, but the previous one is more dangerous."
Yes for Al, Reinhard is more reasonable enemies rather than Arthur. The former will not act here and will not attack her because he is knight. But the latter is not just he didn't care Priscilla position as candidate he is also didn't hesitate a bit to launch an attack.
"As my vassal, you can't make such pathetic display. And what of the Sword Saint? Merely the supposed mightiest in the land. And for those unnamed person before? Do something"
"No matter who you pick first i wouldn't last one minute...."
Al had calmly ȧssessed the tale of the tape, raising the white flag in short order. His demeanor brought exasperation to Priscilla's face, and all the malice and enmity to that point seemed to dissipate.
"Even if you can't, it doesn't mean i need to do it, why i need to apologize for something that's not my fault"
Replied Priscilla stubbornly
"With just you, even if you summon Yang sword Vollachia , you won't last long, if you didn't believe me try it. I think, i will beat you until you apologize now"
The tension in the room is become very tense
"Arthur, as your friend, and also as a royal guard, i hope you can leave it slide for this once?"
Reinhard know it was Priscilla fault but he also have a responsibility to protect royal candidates, on top of that in this room, the throne room.
"If you want to block me at least draw your sword, you can, right?" Arthur didn't care about Reinhard plead and put his hand on kusanagi sword hilt.
"Then, forgive me, this is my job as a knight..."
Reinhard draw his blade, and this gesture is bring a shock to the entire room because this is a legendary sword who just can only be drawn against opponents it deems worthy for it to be used against. And now this is drawn entirely from it sheath, the other think this is not their place to interfere if the one who they need to face is someone that can make sword saint need in full power and fully equip to confront on battle.
"It will be more interesting.. to fight you, and after that, i will teach the former slave over there, what a useless slave, she just can bring misfortune for her master"
This statement not just stir up the commotion, the source of all of this, Priscilla seem like can't contained her anger and make Yang Sword Vollachia materializes on her hand.
But before she make any move a loud booming sound is heard and something fly pass her. Before she can react a tip of sword is already on her throat.
Reinhard who is between the two of them is trap inside a whirling sword petals from all of direction, it is the move that called as gokei in the bleach. He need to defend himself and he can't escape easily so he can't stop Arthur in time.
"As i said you're nothing to me"
The tension is at a boiling point, Reinhard who just break up from Arthur trap is can't do a thing now because with just a move, Priscilla will fly, now everything is in her hand, the one who make this thing escalating like this.
"Arthur, it's enough, you can't point your sword like that to a girl, i didn't want to see you make any violence in this room. I'm fine, it's like what you said i need to face it, right?"
The one who speak first is not the one who bring this chaos but the one who become victim.
"You're too soft heart..." Arthur sigh and sheathed his sword "you must be very thankful Emilia is here, if not" Arthur walk away and stop in front of Reinhard
"Really what a shitty kingdom, all of people here object Emilia because of her appearance and also reject Felt because of her origin, said they didn't fit to be a monarch, but you didn't said a thing to that former slave attitude, who have the right mind to entrust a kingdom to someone who didn't put anyone in her eyes"
Arthur voice is clearly heard for everyone in the room. They're very upset with how he curse this kingdom and government official but they didn't dare to rebuke him because what he said is what really happened here. And another part because they can't stop him in case of he is make a rampage.
Sword saint can fight him, but Arthur can trapped Reinhard and stop him for a moment, and at that moment he can slain anyone he wants.
"Arthur, are you not listening me?" Emilia once again calling him
"I know, i know, jeez, it's my fault to make a promise to you"
"So... you're regretting it?" Emilia ask carefully with her eyes looking below
"Ofcourse not, what are you worried about.."
After vanishes in front of Reinhard and appear in front of Emilia with his hand patted her head and talking with gentle tone before turning face the Council of Elders.
"I'm very embarrassed for my rude behavior previously, i hope we can continue this conference again and process without any accidents" and he turn to Marcus while passing all of his weapon to him "i said it already, you must take my weapon, look at the commotion i make because of your lack of responsibility"
Arthur walk away and leaving the speechless Marcus who didn't know how to react to Arthur shamless act to shift the blame to him.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
With Reinhard tell how he finding Felt in the slum there is a commotion from the government official, and the one who have the loudest voice is a guy named Ricket who even make rude statements to Emilia.
Among the silent remaining candidates, Priscilla, her arms crossed with a bored expression, spat out, "—How long are you going to entertain this boring, pointless discussion?"
As all eyes fell upon the girl, her full bosom shook above her folded arms.
"Even if it is in name only, five have been ȧssembled so the process can commence. All we need do is begin, and the unworthy will be culled in due course. After all, I shall be the last one standing. Whether the excess baggage is qualified to be king or not is completely beside the point."
Priscilla's brash, irrational argument drew a heated reaction from Felt.
