What kind of combination is this.
Didn’t they say that Crown Prince Felix and Princess Bizra don’t get along very well?
But why are the Princess and the Crown Prince’s aide together…?
“…No. It’s a different person.”
The short blue hair and purple eyes, height and appearance were incredibly similar.
But the atmosphere they gave off was subtly different.
If the Crown Prince’s aide had a refined aspect, the person here now was slightly sharp, you could say.
“She must be twins with His Highness the Crown Prince’s aide.”
“Oh, to notice right away. That’s right, that one is Her Highness the Princess’s aide. Usually people can’t tell them apart even after years of looking. Your eye for detail is indeed good.”
Trisha burst out in admiration.
I slowly approached her.
“Were you alright?”
“It seems like you were the one who had trouble. There was a loud noise from outside.”
“There are quite a lot of enemies around.”
I whispered quietly and gazed steadily at Bizra and the blue-haired woman standing beside her.
The one with the black stains was, surprisingly, not Bizra but the blue-haired woman.
It was even so thick and disgusting that it made my face naturally contort.
The darkest among all the subordinates of ‘Evil’ I’ve seen so far.
At this level, is she an executive?
“…I apologize for the late introduction, Your Highness the Princess. I am called Ordel, affiliated with the Sun God’s Main Temple.”
I bowed my head to Bizra.
Bizra, who had said nothing until we burst in, opened her mouth for the first time.
“…I’d like to hear an explanation of what all this is about.”
It was a pleasant voice, but it sounded stiff due to the lack of emotion.
“This is where I spend time during every hunt. It’s bothersome to participate in the hunt, but if I just sit still in the tent, there are annoyingly many people who come looking for me.”
“…”
“Today was the same… but suddenly you two came barging in. Just as I was about to hear what was going on, a commotion broke out outside.”
“We received a note like a duel challenge telling us to come here.”
Trisha said, shrugging her shoulders.
“But we were quite surprised that Your Highness the Princess was here.”
Trisha’s eyes sharpened as she looked at Bizra.
“Does Your Highness the Princess truly have no connection whatsoever to the note sent to us?”
“What note? Could you show me what kind it is?”
“It’s despicably threatening content toward me and my husband. Please understand that it’s difficult to show you carelessly as it contains sensitive content.”
“So you’re saying you’re suspicious whether I’m that threatener or not.”
Bizra snorted.
“To just accuse without even showing what the content is. But just being in the same place wouldn’t be proof that I sent that note.”
Bizra glared at us and stepped forward.
“Without proper evidence, are you going to report me to His Majesty the Emperor and Her Majesty the Empress like this?”
Bizra’s tone changed.
This person’s personality isn’t ordinary either.
Before the atmosphere could become more deadly, I stepped forward.
“Of course not. We also have no intention of doing so without evidence.”
Bizra looked at me with eyes asking who I was to butt in.
What do you mean who – I’m the only person who can sort out this situation.
“Anyway, Your Highness the Princess is saying you’ve never sent us a note, right?”
“Do I need to say it twice?”
“Understood. We will choose to believe Your Highness the Princess.”
When I smiled and obediently backed down, the three members of the Siery family all looked at me simultaneously.
But why are they all filled with anticipation?
Not puzzled or flustered, but watching with excitement.
“…However, we also have our circumstances, so we’d like to ask Your Highness the Princess for just one understanding.”
“Understanding?”
“The note that came to you two has serious content written in it, so we need to verify it. So…”
I looked at the blue-haired woman standing behind Bizra.
When our eyes met, I grinned at her as she flinched and trembled.
“Would it be alright if we investigated the person standing behind Your Highness the Princess?”
We can’t touch the Princess, but other people are different, right?
“Above all, there are quite a lot of enemies with strange powers around here.”
“Strange powers? Enemies? Then the commotion we heard just now…”
Bizra’s face suddenly hardened stiffly.
“They’re the ones who attacked no less than Duke Siery. We absolutely cannot just let this slide.”
I raised my hand and pointed straight at the woman standing behind Bizra.
“So hand that one over.”
Simply being suspicious over one note and attacking Duke Siery are clearly different matters.
If Bizra protects that person to the end because she’s a close aide, a huge rift might occur between the Imperial Palace and House Siery…
“That’s right.”
…Huh?
What, she’s handing her over so readily…?
“Your Highness!”
Surprised, the woman standing behind shouted, but Bizra didn’t blink an eye.
Not only that?
“Jessi Lunata here is the twin sister of Bes Lunata who assists His Highness the Crown Prince. Know that before you take her away.”
She even gave the kind advice that taking Jessi Lunata could cause problems with the Crown Prince’s side too.
This is really unexpected?
“Well, I should be going now. Instead of resting, I’ve experienced all sorts of things and I’m tired.”
“Y-Your Highness…!”
Jessi Lunata urgently grabbed onto Bizra who was about to leave.
But she coldly shook off her hand.
Is she cutting off the tail?
If not that, then…
“You.”
Then Bizra, who was passing by me, stopped walking and whispered to me in a small voice.
“You’d better be careful. If you don’t want to die.”
“…”
I looked at Bizra.
The moment our gazes met.
“But I hope you don’t be careful. Because it’s interesting.”
She smiled brightly.
As if it was very enjoyable and interesting.
Bizra opened the cabin door and left as if she had nothing more to say.
Leaving Jessi Lunata among the angry wolves.
Ha, this makes me laugh involuntarily.
It’s been a while since I’ve met such an unpredictable character.
I couldn’t get a sense at all of whether Bizra was an enemy or not.
“…”
Well, whatever.
Anyway, there’s no way to catch Bizra right now, and there’s someone to substitute for her.
I turned to look at Jessi Lunata.
Already the monsters – no, the three members of the Siery family were surrounding her so she couldn’t escape.
Before starting the interrogation, I first lifted a square table from one side of the cabin and placed it in the center, then sat down.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m creating a good environment for interrogation. Make that person sit too.”
When I tapped the opposite side, Rute immediately dragged Jessi Lunata over and forced her to sit in front of me.
As expected, this setup is the best for interrogation.
“Jessi Lunata. How does it feel to be abandoned by your master?”
When I asked with a smile, Jesi glared at each of us one by one.
“I am a close confidant of the Imperial Family and a Count officially appointed with His Majesty the Emperor’s approval. Even the House of Sieri cannot treat me carelessly.”
Her eyes were filled with murderous intent.
“Moreover, you are nothing. As soon as I leave this place, I will formally protest this matter…”
“I didn’t leave only you here to listen to such boring and tedious words.”
When I crossed my arms and clicked my tongue, Jesi’s face twisted unpleasantly.
I grabbed and waved the note that Trisha had received.
“This note, you sent it, didn’t you?”
“So what exactly is that note…”
“You know about Rute’s condition, don’t you.”
When I immediately revealed the secret without even confirming it, Trisha and Mikhail’s eyes widened.
In contrast, Rute standing beside me showed no reaction at all.
As if he trusted me no matter what I did.
With that silent trust, I spoke more confidently.
“Because you people are the ones who put that unidentified power into Rute’s body.”
“What nonsense have you been spouting!”
“No need to make excuses.”
I smiled brightly and reached my hand toward Jesi.
“My eyes can see very clearly the dirty and ugly power dwelling in your body. But you know what? That power is incompatible with the Sun God.”
As I slowly drew up my golden divine power, Jesi’s face immediately hardened.
“Until now, you’ve been living quite comfortably since we weren’t in the capital, right? It’s over now. We’re going to catch and kill all of you.”
I’ll root out and eliminate every last one of them.
【Activating skill ‘Holy Spear’.】
An intense light incomparable to when I used blessings directly engulfed Jesi.
“Aaaahhhhh!”
With a piercing scream, black energy burst out from Jesi’s entire body.
