“Your Majesty, I will step forward.”
Guardian Knight Reinhardt prostrated himself. Lucius slowly shook his head.
“Arthur. “This is not an opponent you can deal with.”
“…Windsor is great, but there are hundreds of swords that protect the empire. “If we drag them all out.”
“Now that I think about it, you don’t know. “A nightmare from 7 years ago.”
“Seven years ago…”
At that ti, Reinhardt was training.
“A 15-year-old girl tried to overthrow the empire. “Only a small number of central nobles know about this.”
Reinhardt’s eyes opened wide. Soon I was filled with anger.
“At that ti, Irene Windsor entered the Academy to prepare for the succession of the House of Windsor.”
The events of that ti were still vivid to Lucius. Because that was the crucial reason why he called Irene a ‘trickster.’
“…It was one day. Soone immature insulted Irene. A family that hasn’t even advanced to the central region for 300 years is already struggling too much. He was the heir of an earl sowhere, but I don’t rember.”
Actually, I rembered it.
The count’s na was More. As an influential mber of the aristocratic faction at the ti, it was a family that was quite annoying.
However, what happened at that ti remained a painful regret to Lucius, to the point where he did not even want to ntion that family na.
“What happened to that person?”
“…The count family was exterminated, and the marquis who married that count family was exterminated.”
“Are you saying you did sothing like that just because I was rude to you?”
“I gave permission. Not only did I not want to fall out with Windsor, but the count was quite a thorn in my side.”
Reinhard recalled the na of the Count More family. I only knew that Lucius had purged , but I never imagined that there were such circumstances.
“Do you think the other nobles would have stayed quiet? Several influential nobles tried to use their troops to stop Irene Windsor. “What do you think happened?”
“…it is difficult for one knight to deal with many people. “Did the Duke of Windsor co forward himself, mortally wounded?”
“No, the Duke of Windsor didn’t budge.”
Lucius chuckled. That smile contained emptiness.
“1267 people.”
“…!”
“This is the number of people Irene Windsor killed that day by herself. “They were all powerful knights and mages.”
Lucius placed his hand on his forehead.
“Irene, she is out of her mind.”
**
There was a trace of blood on Irene’s white blouse. There was more blood on the coat, but it was black so it wasn’t noticeable.
Around her, people were falling down like flowers. Everyone with stab wounds in the sa location.
“I hope the dog gets ho quickly.”
Irene smiled brightly as she looked in the direction Galahad ran away from.
Then he turned his head again to the three people he had deliberately left behind.
“Do you know why I left you three alone?”
They were sitting on their knees without a single wound.
He had a blank expression. It had to be that way.
They were the best knights of the empire, but they could not block even a single sword of Irene Windsor. I couldn’t even see it. All she had to do was put her hand on the handle and everyone fell at the sa ti.
Irene squatted down in front of them, losing their will to fight.
“I wanted to ask you a question. “Actually, I don’t know much about this.”
“I did such a cruel thing for that purpose.”
“Don’t worry. The rest just cut the tendons. If a priest treats you, there will be no danger to your life. After just a month, I will be able to lift a sword again. If you’re not guilty, no one gets hurt. But if you commit a sin-”
Irene raised the corners of her mouth and said refreshingly.
“I will choose whether to kill you painfully or painlessly, in the order of the cris you committed against my brother.”
“pain?”
“Parents, siblings, children, precious people.”
Irene said that and smiled brightly. But everyone understood it without needing to express it further.
“Kkkkkkkk. “I’m glad it’s an orphan.”
Judith lost her mind and laughed. Irene also looked at him and smiled.
“I’m also glad you’re a girl. “Because there are more options.”
Judith’s expression hardened in an instant.
“So tell everything that happened.”
It felt pointless to lie to Irene. Her cold eyes seed to see through all the truth.
“…I took the lead.”
“huh?”
“I just stopped the rest. “If I made a mistake, it was my personal negligence, and they did not commit any cri.”
The verdict is over.
Irene imdiately tried to kill Charon. But that was then.
“You gave a reason to be troubled.”
Irene’s arm, which was about to draw the sword, stopped.
I slowly looked back.
Liszt, the leader of the Teutonic Knights, was walking.
“It’s been like that since long ago. You seed like soone who wanted to create conflict. In the past, a task that could have been completed with 10 people was completed by killing 1,000 people, and the goal will be the sa this ti as well.”
List stood in front of Irene.
“Forgive with my neck this ti.”
“leader!”
“Shut up.”
Charon could not say anything as Liszt looked at him with an evil look in his eyes.
“Irene Windsor. That would be enough compensation, right? “If the massacre seven years ago wasn’t just about enjoying killing, then accept this offer.”
Irene said indifferently.
“Hands on my brother, your neck is not enough.”
“…!”
Liszt’s eyes widened.
It soon distorted greatly.
“How far are you willing to go!”
Irene laughed creepyly when she heard that. “And that’s good,” he muttered.
“Until this era of peace cos to an end?”
List was greatly shocked.
“Seo, no way. You go to war…”
“I!”
At that ti, Charon shouted hysterically.
“I didn’t harm even a hair of Prince Ruid’s hair. “In any case, it was a defense based on an attack.”
“Do you an that Ruid attacked first?”
Irene asked calmly. Charon hesitated for a mont and then nodded.
“exactly.”
“lie.”
Charon flinched. I’m afraid he might have discovered what he was hiding.
However, the reason why Irene said it was a lie was not different.
“That child, even if he has a weak side, he is strong beyond imagination. “If Ruid had attacked first, it wouldn’t have ended with just his left arm.”
“That’s not true.”
Charon strongly denied it.
“We could have hurt him. But you didn’t.”
Irene was genuinely puzzled.
“Do you think it’s possible?”
“It wouldn’t be possible if I were alone. However, if the Teutons present were angry, it would not have been difficult to harm Confucius. “I have a good compatibility with wizards.”
“I can’t believe it. There is no way that inorganic creatures like you can deal with Luid.”
Irene shook her head.
“…let ask you just one question. “If you truly didn’t intend to harm Confucius, would you forgive ?”
Irene nodded gently.
“If it was just for fun, you might not kill anyone.”
Charon rolled up one arm. He showed the complex runes written there.
“The power engraved on my body is Dispel. This is the proof. “We did not do it when we had a golden opportunity to harm Prince Ruid.”
Irene blinked.
A mont of silence passed.
The Teutonic Knights broke into a cold sweat.
“Aha, ahaha!”
Irene laughed out loud. It’s been almost 7 years. I just heard a really funny joke.
“You guys have no idea about Ruid’s power.”
Perhaps because she was laughing so hard, tears ford in the corners of Irene’s eyes.
I wiped my eyes with my hand and touched my lips.
“So, this ridiculous thing happened?”
There was a subtle anger in Irene’s tone. She folded her hands and spoke politely.
“Received.”
Irene smiled strangely and stretched out her hand in the air.
Partschut-
“Winter?”
The sword that ca out of Irene’s hand was a sword I had already seen once.
The sword used by Ruid.
But the sizes were different. It was thinner and thinner than Ruid’s sword. However, the magical power flowing out was even stronger.
Irene cut herself without a mont of hesitation.
**
Ruid grumbled profusely.
‘How dare you call my sister a monster?’
Where is such a pretty monster?
That was the first thing I felt when I heard Galahad. But, at the sa ti, I also had this thought.
‘We can’t let Alia’s efforts go to waste.’
I knew how frantically Alia had been practicing. Because I knew that, I had no intention of letting it go to waste.
Of course I was planning on stopping him. It is not too late to worry about the treatnt of the knights who dared to draw a line on Alia’s cheek after the duel.
However,
upon arriving at the scene, Ruid could not help but make a blank expression.
Fallen knights. The floor soaked in blood.
And in the middle of it all, Irene is lying down with empty pupils.
The knight looking down at her.
I knew the knight’s na very well.
A knight ranked first in the empire. List of sword masters.
“Louis.”
Ruid tried to block Alia from covering his eyes.
‘It’s my fault.’
Ruid approached Irene with unsteady steps.
“Lou, Louis. Uh, my sister is now… gasp.”
‘I wish I had moved earlier. Even if they didn’t kill him, if only he had shown his overwhelming power then.’
Ruid knew that Irene was strong.
But no one is dead here. The fallen knights were all conscious.
That was proof that Irene had taken matters into her own hands.
Irene didn’t kill anyone. But, actually, Irene.
“….”
Ruid put his hand out in front of Irene’s nose.
My breath had stopped.
“who is this?”
Ruid looked up at the list with blank eyes.
“You…did that?”
List said nothing. I couldn’t say anything exactly.
‘The body doesn’t move.’
The intense wave of magical energy that Ruid gave off did not allow him to even utter a single word.
Uweek.
Shearer, who was particularly sensitive to the flow of magical energy, vomited on the floor with a deathly expression.
So did the rest. His face beca so thoughtful that he couldn’t even lift a hand.
Ruid walked to Charon behind the list.
Quad deuk!
“Ugh…!”
At that mont, a powerful magical force crushed them. Ruid didn’t use any special magic. Even though I just got closer to Ruid, that phenonon happened.
Crack!
Bones break-
“Cough.”
He was bleeding from his mouth. Among them, only the list was holding on. But all he could do was hold on.
“If you hate that much.”
Tears fell from Luid’s eyes.
“You can say anything to ! But why!”
Charon wanted to convey this sohow. It’s all fake. However, Ruid did not allow that.
“I’ll give you the sa feeling. “I will also destroy everything you hold dear, except you.”
Ruid recalled the most terrible magic he knew.
“I regret it. “You too.”
Gurgling—
Blue flas blood from both of Luid’s eyes.
Alia, the only one not affected by Ruid’s magic, raised her head in a daze.
The sky turned white.
A huge chunk of ice that could not be captured with just one eye slowly fell.
Cracking –
the entire imperial palace was turning into a white snowy field.
Alia hurriedly hugged Lloyd.
“Lou, Louis. calm down! “Irene, I’m acting!”
“…performance?”
Ruid looked at Irene with a devastated face.
“….”
Irene was looking at herself with sparkling eyes. My face is also a little red.
“….”
I looked dead again, but it was no use. Ruid’s eyes beca clear again and his magic power was withdrawn. The casting was canceled and the summoned ice block beca light and disappeared.
However, the frozen imperial palace did not return.
“…I got caught.”
Irene slowly stood up with a regretful expression.
Ruid cried and ran towards Irene with all his might.
“Louis.”
Irene spread her arms with a kind face.
however.
Wow!
Ruid bit Irene’s arm as hard as he could.
