The structure of Elreim Castle was the sa as the typical castles for the royal family.
The castle was at the center, gardens surrounded it, and there was a main and back gate.
The surrounding walls were made of stone and not all that sturdy, and only had a height that was at the level of obstructing gazes.
This structure, which obviously didnt hypothesize that it would be attacked, was caused by the fact that there werent any wars between fellow mbers of mankind for many years.
However, even if there werent any armies coming to attack, since there were scoundrels that would occasionally appear, knights were always appointed to both the main and back gates in order to defend against them, and even the gardens were strictly guarded.
Unlike the town wall gates, the ones protecting this place werent the Kashnart Defense Chivalric Order, but mbers of the Shields of Light Chivalric Order.
They, who were a heavily equipped Chivalric Order, held shields befitting of their na, and would imdiately eliminate anyone suspiciousthat is what was said of them.
Mu? Wait, stop right there.
That day, what two Shields of Light knights who were guarding the castles rear gate saw was a single purple young girl.
The young girl wore equipnt that made her appear to be an adventurer, however, she possessed an elegance that didnt belong to an ordinary person.
By so chance, she might be the daughter of so noble.
While thinking of that possibility, the Shields of Light knights, following the regulations, crossed their halberds and obstructed her path.
The *gashari* sound made from making them hit each other was a warning, as well as a threat.
But, that purple young girl show no sign of fear, and gave a sweet smile.
Excuse . I am Ys. Today, I had a reason, and ca to this place.
The young girls bow was magnificent, and the Shields of Light knights had the possibility that she was the daughter of so noble increase just a bit within their minds.
That being said, nevertheless, they couldnt allow her through.
The Shields of Light knight inford the young girl who called herself Ys with a tone that was purely coercive.
This place has forbidden passage. If you have business within the castle, you had best head to the main gate. Listen well, this warning will be given only once. If you try and continue any useless talk any more than this, you will be seen as a suspicious person.
Ara, how scary.
The giggling young girl took a couple of steps backwardsand at the sa ti, a blond woman wearing silver armor ca out from a place hidden from view.
The Shields of Light knights were exasperated thinking is this the entrance of her guardian, but seeing that womans face, they ca to a realization.
You are!?
Listen, o knight of the Shields of Light Chivalric Order.
Her dignified voice resounded, and the Shields of Light knights unconsciously straightened their spines.
Why was this person here? The Shields of Light knights couldnt think of that reason at all.
However, since she wasnt soone they could recklessly point their weapons at either, they hesitated on sounding the alarm.
I am the Second Princess Eltrinde. I have co to defeat Mazenda, the ringleader who deceived my elder sister, Narika, and caused this civil war. If you all have hearts as knights of the Canal Kingdom, fall back. If you will not fall back, you will also be seen as companions of Mazendaas traitors.
Ugh
Hearing the word traitor, one of the Shields of Light knights unconsciously groaned.
Putting aside the Third Princess Celis, the Second Princess Eltrinde was a person praised as the Princess Knight of Justice, and was genuine royalty. There wouldnt be a knight that could stay composed from being branded as a traitor by soone like that.
But, the Shields of Light knights also knew the fact that Eltrinde was close to Celis. In that case, they really couldnt allow her to pass through here. That being said, they were still hesitant over aggressively pointing a weapon towards her.
After wavering over the choice, one of the knights was about to sound the alarmand it was there that he turned to his coworker who had been silent for a while.
Oi, whats wrong?
Thats a fake.
A fake, oi
Feeling puzzled over his coworker who started abruptly saying sothing unsettling, the Shields of Light knight who grabbed his shield violently brushed it away.
Guah!? You, whatre you doing!
Attack Fire
Gaah!?
The Shields of Light Knight that had his head blown off from magic fired at point blank range collapsed just like that with a thud.
While looking down at him, the coworker Shields of Light knight that fired the Attack Fire unnaturally displayed an act of seeming sad.
Ooh, how could this be. My coworker died from an attack from scoundrels using the na of the Second Princess.
Y, you, why did you do that to your companion!
The Shields of Light knight that curved his mouth into the shape of a smile didnt reply to Eltrindes words, sounded the alarm, and shouted.
Its an enemy attack! A suspicious person calling herself the Second Princess used attack magic!
You, do you still call yourself a knight being like that!?
So it really did co to this. Thats why I said that talking wouldnt workAre princesses unable to function unless they have unrealistic dreams?
In front of Ykslaas, who went fuu and breathed a sigh, there was the figure of the Shields of Light knight who readied his halberd and shield and ca charging in.
The fact that he thought that he would be able to defeat her if he charged in like that could even be seen from the smile that was displayed on his face.
Drawing her black rose sword, Ykslaas warded off the charging in Shields of Light knights halberd.
Nuaaaah!
After evading the shield that was swung after the halberd, Ykslaas thrust her sword into his abdon that was full of openings.
Together with a *gin* sound, the black rose sword was repelled by the armor, and Ykslaas took so distance with a back step together with a tongue click.
Fuu, this is why I dont like heavily equipped knights. They have pointlessly high defensive power after all.
Ha, so youre already in a stalemate! In that case, die and!?
Gold and silver radiances were reflected in the Shields of Light knights eyes.
That was Eltrinde who had forced herself in between Ykslaas and the Shields of Light knight.
However, seeing that there wasnt the brilliance of magical power on Eltrindes unsheathed sword, the Shields of Light knight smiled.
There was no way that a sword that wasnt a Magic Sword would be able to cut through his armor.
Still being convinced of that, the Shields of Light knight was cut along with his armorand together with an earth tremor, he collapsed to the ground.
