Chapter 150: Scheme
Running as fast as I can across the wide open plains.
I like sunny weather.
But in this situation, this weather makes me feel like I'm being harassed and held a grudge against the sun.
"Prince!"
I think I ran well.
The battlefield behind me is nowhere to be seen anymore
"It's all right. Let's hurry."
"Impossible! Your knees are shaking and your eyes are not focusing properly. Let's catch our breath."
"Damn it!"
The soldiers escorting me still seem to have plenty of stamina to spare.
I'm angry at my lack of strength.
"Calm down. It's okay, everyone is strong."
The original plan had been to bring the running dragons on board the ship.
However, securing the number of soldiers and weapons put pressure on the load more than expected, so we could no longer afford to do so.
"Hmm? Prince!"
"What's wrong?"
"Someone is coming from the front. No, it's an army."
They are raising flags
One flag I've never seen before.
The other one is
"Kusuof Army!"
It was about 200 armed foxkin soldiers.
The leader is approaching
"Prince Giran of the Kingdom of Berdreich, I presume!"
"Yes. Are you Kusuof's army?"
My knees tremble and I can't get up
"Yes! I am Viscount Nahaftaine. I have been looking for the prince."
"Looking for?"
"Because Kusuof's Queen, Tenrei-sama foresaw this."
"I see."
I have met Queen Tenrei.
I was once surprised when she responded to me as if she could read my mind.
She told me, [It's just a trick, a trick with a seed].
“As expected of Queen Tenrei. I'm sorry to rush into this, but I need you to help the others."
We can join them right from here.
I exhale deeply
"No, thank you."
"………What?"
The Viscount, who was looking serious until just now, smiled.
"Prince Giran, you will die here."
That smile was a smile of absolute superiority. It was a sneer.
"What! If the bandits continue to invade the border, it will become a war!"
"Yes, that's what I want."
What nonsense!
"Who would benefit from a war in this situation? Any country could starve to death!"
"Yes, I hope they die."
The Viscount begins to talk about his ideals.
“In the first place, what is tranquility? It is stability. Stability means that the state is solid. There will be no room for intrusion, no cause for usurpation."
"Are you going to take advantage of the war and revolt!"
"Exactly! That's why I supported your bloodline, the most foolish among them."
Is this guy responsible for Hasdinus' actions?
"Are you going to attack the people of your own country?"
"It is an unavoidable sacrifice for our justice. I'm sure all those who will die will understand."
"Don't joke around! Who would follow someone who will kill their own people for such a stupid reason!"
"It's easy, if you give them money, power, and women, they'll wag their tail and follow."
It's rotten. This person's heart is rotten
"We're just here to watch. Let's see that beautiful girl die after being raped by a filthy bandit."
"Don't mess around!"
I strain my knees desperately
"Your legs are trembling, you know?"
"I don't care! I'll kill you right here and now!"
My escort agrees.
I give the viscount a look of disgust and draw my sword.
"Then die before the Edgeworth woman."
The bastard draws his sword.
It should be fine
Even if I'm at the limit of my physical strength, I can easily block this guy's sword.
My escorts also started fighting
"I'm not going to die! I will not die until I kill you!"
The swordfight repeats.
One blow
Two blows
I lost balance on the third blow
"Oya, oya, is that all it takes, three blows?"
"Damn it!"
I have no strength in my body
"Then it's time for you to die!"
I can't lift my arm
The blade fell down
Will it end like this!? I!
