Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

The thought that passed through Esmuier’s mind as he was thrown by Eldmia’s hand to the royal knight was a question.

How are the demons here?

Contrary to the external gaze, the imperial family of the empire is firm. There was no faction that could keep her in check, and even the younger brother’s faction, which seemed to be assorted on the outside, was deliberately neglected to gather those who were dissatisfied with her.

Above all, none of his brothers and sisters, including him, want the position of emperor.

He might want to put his children on the throne after he died, but at least not now.

“Princess! Are you okay?!”

It was the Knight of the Royal Guard who brought her out of the swamp of troubles that could have gotten deeper. Correcting the loose focus, Esmuer ordered.

“Kill the demons and save the traitor.”

I thought it was the work of the demons, so I tried to keep him alive and interrogate him, but there was no reason to obsess over the demons other than that. Rather, it is much more helpful to save and interrogate the traitor who pushed Eldmia and tried to push her through the gate despite having her blood cut.

Esmuer’s order, concluded in this way, was carried out quickly despite the fact that he uttered it quietly without raising his voice.

And at that sight, the demons instantly felt anger.

Because as many as three out of the five who dealt with him backed away and ran to Esmuer. The anger was justified, as it was clear that he was being looked down upon by anyone.

He intervened openly because he was convinced that he could escape without dying.

It was astonishing that a human being could afford such absurd composure while having such a self in front of him.

“Ha! To believe that if you want to kill, you can easily win…?”

But the guardsmen were different. They did not mix prejudice and arrogance in carrying out Esmuer’s orders. Rather, I tended to be prepared for a misunderstanding.

That’s why the two of them stayed. And as if to prove it, the sword of the bodyguard slipped through the moment the demon’s claws and sword intertwined and cut off the demon’s head.

The first thing that came into the eyes of the demon, who was surprised by the spinning scenery and was unable to speak, was his own back. And in the midst of the dull shock, what decorated his last sight was the sight of the two remaining guardsmen running towards Esmuer.

It was only after he turned his head to check the gate that Esmuer’s expression distorted, as if he was looking at that figure as if it were natural.

“Did I miss this trick…!”

The gate was twisting and collapsing.

There was no magical attack, but the fact that it collapsed as soon as someone moved meant that it had been set up in advance, like a trap.

Anger shone in her eyes as she watched the gate begin to collapse.

“I saved you.”

I didn’t want to show my face that was so angry that my shoulders trembled, so I answered without turning my head to the voice coming from behind.

“Leave it to the Royal Guard and call the illusionists to interrogate it. Tell them to get everything they can get as quickly as possible, regardless of means and methods.”

In that case, it was clear that his mind would collapse and become a breathing corpse, but he didn’t care about Esmuye at all. And so did the others around her.

Calmly looking around at the academy faculty and guards gathering around him, Esmuet briefly organized his thoughts and gave an order.

“Captain of the Guard. Prepare the seal and personal letter of the woman. Professor Wade. The event is over. Bring and protect the students. Guards. Bring in the wizards and investigate the gate. Anyone who questions or interferes with the name of the woman. Let them know that they will be punished severely.”

Esmuye, who was called the Iron-blooded Princess, knew better than anyone else that she preferred action to answer, so even though they were confused just before, they moved in perfect order.

“Where is Marquis Levien?”

“He is coming.”

Following the voice of the captain of the bodyguard guarding the side, he turned his head and saw Ragnis running towards him.

He must have been chasing Eldmia from the time he moved, but now he was far enough to reach him.

Eldmia sensed the abnormality from a distance and came running. It was Esmuer who realized again that he was trying to save himself with all his might, although he did not know how.

“Ragnis. Did Eldmia have any magic tools today?”

That’s why Esmu, too, was going to do everything in his power to find him.

Even if the demons intervened, the gate itself was a thing of the empire. It was not at the level of suddenly flying to another country or the Demonic Territory.

Even if you have a magic tool that can pinpoint the location, you can find it through magic.

“No. Nothing.”

Although it was clear that he was desperate and desperate, Ragnis calmly answered and pondered.

However, it was not easy because all I could think about right away was regret buying something and giving it as a gift.

At that time, something flashed in my mind about the gift.

Asili.

“We need to find the person who made Eldmia’s earrings.”

“You must meet the person who made Eldmia’s earrings.”

Ragnis was relieved that Esmue, who had come to the same conclusion, had words that were no different from his own.

desperate at the same time. Asilie was in Ogwen at the end of Itthel.

“But the street…”

Esmuer, seeing Ragnis’ uneasiness on the outside, grabbed Ragnis’ arm.

And he answered with more confidence than ever before.

“I’ll take care of that at my leisure.”

◈

Gates made by humans have a limit on the movement distance.

What came to my mind while passing through the gate was the story Ragnis had told me before coming to the Empire.

It may be a wishful observation, but I think that it is not simply a matter of magic, but also a matter of the magic tools that make up the gate.

Also, due to the nature of the gate connecting two doors into one, even if the performance of one gate is good, the moving distance will not increase.

In other words, I don’t know where I’m flying right now, but I won’t escape the Empire.

With the mindset that it would be fine as long as it wasn’t for the demon spirit, I rolled the floor as low as I could and at the same time, I swung my sword at a feeling of presence without any hesitation.

Fortunately, the surprise attack was successful, and we were able to slash the backs and thighs of the unidentified assailants we encountered in front of the gate.

“Quaaaaagh!!”

“I’m not the princess…Ah!”

Gates are not all-purpose space-travel magic. just a tunnel Of course, unless the demons had the intention of dropping Esmue in the capital out of nowhere somewhere in the province and leaving it unattended, those at the arrival point are unconditional enemies without a single exception.

When it was time to assess the situation, it was clear that it would be safe to cut at least one more guy in sight, so I swung the sword I could see without any hesitation.

“Damn it! What the hell happened on the other side!”

“There is a possibility that the plan has been exposed! Hold on until the captain comes!”

“Are you a warrior?!”

After beheading the three clumsily rushing at me, the first thing I thought of was a sense of relief.

Compared to just a few days ago, my skills didn’t grow by leaps and bounds, and I didn’t get really strong just by taking some lectures in the Empire for 5 days. The only thing that has improved is the weapon, but the armor has rather deteriorated.

In this situation without even other tools, if these guys were at the level of the demons in the abandoned dungeon, it was clear that they would have been at a level where they had to be prepared for death.

Fortunately, there are no guys that strong yet.

And after three people died in an instant and two suffered fatal injuries close to incapacitation, the rest of them started to notice without approaching easily.

Thanks to that, I was able to take a moment to look at them, and even belatedly, I was able to figure out the most distinctive part.

“You can’t predict the real day ahead in life.”

As if it were quite natural, the human and the demon teamed up.

This is enough to convince me that even if my life this time is intertwined with the demons, something is firmly intertwined.

In any case, it wasn’t the time to enjoy it leisurely, so I took advantage of the moment when they hesitated and ran away without looking back.

“uh?”

“Mi, crazy! Run away! Be surrounded! Be surrounded!”

I don’t know what the heck I was thinking, but I hear a very panicked cry from behind.

Did you believe that I would fight until I killed them all? Well, as if he had predicted it, he swung his sword as soon as it popped out, so it’s fair to assume that he came in to kill them all.

Anyway, thanks to such a ridiculous illusion, I was able to jump out before the encirclement was created, so I decided to be grateful.

“catch!”

The forest is so thick that even the sky cannot be seen properly. rocky mountainous terrain. creek and so on.

I collect information about where I am while paying attention to the voices of those who are getting further and further away.

It was fortunate that it was a forest. It’s probably because they couldn’t be located in an open field in the yard hiding in the empire’s territory, but there was a possibility that they were located in a cave or dungeon, so you can consider them lucky enough.

That said, there was no way to know where this place was right away, but how far did you run with the thought that you would at least know where this place was later?

I felt a sudden chill on the back of my back and instinctively lowered my back.

At the same time, without a sound, the tree right next to it was cut down.

“Wow? Avoid this?”

I know. avoid it If I hadn’t heard your voice, I wouldn’t have known where the attack came from. Even to me, it feels like the sensory part is getting closer to a beast.

I was infinitely grateful for the attitude that clearly made me laugh, and when I turned my gaze, a guy with a dangerous atmosphere was looking at me.

Two thick horns. It’s not wearing any armor, but it’s a costume with a military uniform design. It feels more like the demons I met in the abandoned dungeon than the guy who raided the academy.

However, I don’t feel any magic whatsoever.

“It’s strange. Is it unexpectedly strong? I don’t know because humans don’t feel it.”

I don’t know anything else, but it’s clear that he’s the most dangerous guy ever in that he jumped out and attacked as if he’d been waiting.

Whether it’s magic or physical power, it means that my skills far exceed.

“It’s strange. It must have completely killed the presence, but what…how?”

However, the guy who was still looking at me started to smile as his eyebrows curled strangely. It’s so scary to see her smiling with her mouth ripped open.

Even if I get caught, I feel like I’ve been caught by a crazy person…

“Hey, little Eldmia. Is that you?”

Mr. hair.
