I dismounted. I flipped over the corpse of the Valkyrie who died in battle. Her eyes were still open. She was covered in slash wounds and her corpse got stomped all over by the horses to the point where she was basically soaked in her own blood on the ground. I reached my hand out and gently closed her eyes. All the Valkyries are like this. They dont surrender even if it ans death. I admire and respect them for that. Regardless of what the reason is, no ordinary person could be so loyal.
I stood up. My guards had unard the ard elves in the rear and gathered them together. The elves looked at the guns in their hands with fear. Seeing a cavalry unit spitting fire as they slaughtered their way to reach you is like seeing a fire dragon attack you. Even elves instinctively get frightened by this sort of weapon.
Did you people kill her?
I asked them in the elven language and the leader stood up. He looked at and angrily answered: Youre humanitys prince? Your
I looked at him and emphasised each word: I asked if you were the ones that killed her.
Yes. But your people snatched our people away! We refused your request very affirmatively. We didnt use force previously. We refused your request after we discussed it with you. However, your people spread fallacies to mislead our people and secretly got our people to flee to your side today. How can I watch my people run away mindlessly?! Thats your fault! Youre the ones who instigated our people to run away!
After I listened to everything he had to say, I turned around to ask Luna: Is what he said true?
They dont want much! They just want to provide a ho for their children where they arent always on the run and hold a respectable job. They want to feed their family, themselves and to have warmth! Luna looked at the elf with anger and exclaid, But you cant provide them with those things. I cant watch them starve to death here with you! If you cant feed your people, dont keep them! They have the right to choose a place where they can be fed, live and work!
I turned to look at the elves. The elves standing on the hill quivered. All of them wore shabby clothing that virtually couldnt cover their body. Their thin physiques quivered in the wind. There were so who were lying on the ground panting for dear life just running to this point.
It looks like they truly were on the brink of death from starvation. The group that were willing to co over had understandable reasons to choose so. However, it was just that their leader wasnt willing to let them go. That ans that Luna was in the wrong, since she shouldnt have led their people away when their leader didnt agree.
I am very sorry. My personal servant has caused you trouble. I made a small bow and he froze up. I presu he didnt think I would bow just like that. Luna froze up as well. She looked at blankly as if it was the first ti she t . I looked at the elf who was either the chief or village chief and in a serious tone said, We certainly should not have accepted your people without your permission. Your people should have left only after you gave your permission instead of fleeing. The fault there lies with my personal servant for being rash.
He nodded and spoke as if he was relieved: Exactly! Thats how its supposed to be! Prince, youre a reasonable man, huh!
But that doesnt an you have the right to kill my people.
I then imdiately aid my gun on his forehead. I looked at him sternly. My gaze didnt change. Well, my gaze was the sa as when I apologised before.
You couldve waited until they arrived in my territory and then ca and discussed it with , and I wouldve returned them to you. Further, you didnt have to kill if you chased after them. But you did. You killed my guard. You killed my Valkyrie. Do you now comprehend what you did wrong?
I
Good.
I pulled the trigger and after a flash and loud bang, blood burst into the air. The firework of death destroyed bone and flesh, spraying blood in all directions. The elf in front of dropped to the ground with a loud thud. The elves behind him let out cries of despair. I looked at them with my head tilted and asked: You have sothing to say? Ive already apologised for my personal servant instigating your people and I will compensate you for that by returning these elves to you. But you killed my guard. So naturally, I need to make soone compensate with their life. Is this sohow strange and confusing to you?
Not one of them spoke. I nodded and then said, You dont have a leader now then, right? Ill look after these people for the anti. When you have a new chief or village chief, co and discuss this matter with . Alright, you can all head back now.
The elves fearfully looked at the rifles the guards held. The guards drew their long-swords like they were chasing animals back into the forest. I put my handgun away and looked at the scared elves. I took in a deep breath, faced the sun and seriously said: You dont have to be tense. I will naturally protect you since you have chosen to co to my side to work. I am humanitys prince, Troy Rosvenor. I most welco you to co and work in my city. I will provide you with sufficient food and prepare adequately warm hos for your living needs, so you need not worry. Please co with us back to the city. Those who are weak may choose to ride a horse.
My guards by my side led their horses into the crowd, pulled up those lying on the ground or otherwise helped won up onto their horse and carefully looked after them as they headed back. Those who could walk normally walked on feet slowly in between the cavalry unit. I let out a sigh of relief as I watched the unit slowly gather up. I then looked at Luna by my side and chuckled softly.
Luna looked and and extended her arms out. In her hoarse voice she softly requested: Your majesty could I hug you for a bit? I am so scared really really scared
I checked to see that my guards had left before I hugged Luna tightly. Luna clung to my arms tightly and leaned her head on my shoulder as she sobbed. I gently patted her on her back and softly said: Dont worry, dont be scared. Luna, I told you that I would definitely co to your rescue if you were in danger It held true in the past and it still holds true now. I will definitely co to your rescue.
Luna hugged tightly. In a shaky voice she said next to my ear she said: Uhm.. But I am still very scared I was really scared that I would never see you again. I am so scared I want to stay by your side forever, your majesty I want to take care of you forever
Her body was freezing. She wished she could hug with her arms and legs. I hugged her and stroked her head as I felt Lunas fear and quivering. I was really scared as well. I was worried Luna would be gone if I was one mont late. I dont want to lose anyone. Ill be completely happy to have just them by my side.
Luna was the sa as Nier to . She was soone I would never abandon. I wont abandon Luna. Ill definitely bring Luna ho no matter how dangerous or scary it is because shes my personal servant. My only personal servant
Luna gently pushed away and looked at my face. She gently reached her hands out to cup my face. She then tippy-toed up
Your maj-, ah
Just as Philes found his majesty, he saw him and his personal servant kissing. He stood there awkwardly and confused Its his wedding today and yet hes out here kissing another woman. This isnt good no matter what you say, right? But he didnt need to concern himself with their affairs too much That said that said He was still a little worried for his instructor Will Miss Nier get angry?
Hurry up and get going What are you looking at?!
An individual slapped him on his shoulder from the side and then forcefully twisted his head to one side. He then aggressively warned him: Do not tell our instructor about this, you hear? We are in no position to be sticking our noses into his majestys affairs hes having left-right-centre
True
Philes shook his head. Our instructor and his majestys do love each other. His majesty should be able to handle his own affairs, right? Im better off staying in my lane and doing my job as a guard!
