Royal Mob Takes It All

I take in a single breath as I aim my focus to Barzeph’s back.

“Here it goes.! You’re no getting away, Barzeph!”

I prepare my skill ‘Tame-Thrust’. Now, imagine. This world is similar to the game world, but there are some differences. In that case, even [Application of Skills] should work. I swung my spear at Barzeph, who was just about to escape the throne room.

“I’m going to unleash! What I’ve stockpiled and amassed! ‘Throwing!'”

Swish!

The spear flies in a straight line with a loud wind noise like a jet passing by.

“Nah?”

Barzeef didn’t even have time to look back.

Pierce! Pierce! Pierce!

“Guh, gah ……!”

The power of the technique combining the skills ‘Tame-Thrust’ and ‘Throwing’, which he tried to do as he thought he could probably do, was immense. The spear made a huge hole in Barzeph’s chest, then in the wall at the end of this throne room, and beyond that it pierced deep into the wall of the corridor of the royal castle.

“No way ho–!”

Barzev fell to his knees and then collapsed. He never moved again.

–‘Level up. Lvl 24 to 26. ‘Throwing’ skill level increased. lvl max. ‘Throwing’ skill changed to ‘Ballista’.

‘Ballista’ ? Throws a large spear in a straight line and makes a powerful attack that pierces the opponent. This attack has a destructive effect attached to it.

====================

Gustav Lv 26? [Level UP].

237 experience required to reach the next level.

Skills.

Ballista Lv1? [Level UP].

Throws a large spear in a straight line and makes a powerful attack that pierces the opponent. This attack has a destructive effect attached to it.

====================

The announcement of the level up was played in my brain, which means that Barzeph is dead.

“Folks, it’s over. It seems that Barzef is dead.”

“Ooh, you’ve done it!”

“That’s our hero.”

The king and Morgan-san both praised me with open arms.

“Gustav-san!”

When I turned around, Princess Leia was running towards me. No, if you run like that, you’ll end up in.

“Ah.”

I knew it, the princess tripped on a crack in the floor made during the battle.

“It’s dangerous, Princess.”

“G-Gustav-sama! Sorry.”

He was fortunately able to catch the princess’ body just as it was about to roll to the ground. Dangerous, I felt the soul coming out of my mouth.

“Can you stand up?”

“Yes. ……”

I lift the body of the princess. ? The princess clung to my arm and wouldn’t let go. I hope she didn’t hurt her leg when she fell.

“I am sorry that I am always needing your help.”

“No, no, it’s my job as a guard to help the princess.”

“Gustav-san, …… it’s a great relief to hear you say that.”

I’m not sure if it’s a matter of duty, but in reality it’s mostly because I’m in love with the princess, in other words, it’s completely out of personal greed.

But although I said it was the job of the guards, duties such as protecting the princess from the aggressive tactics of the hero Arc and fighting off the demon king’s army that aims at the princess, are essentially actions that are completely beyond the boundaries of the guards. Ordinarily, the guards should be mainly patrolling the royal castle or guarding the main gates.

Oh, yes, I’ve had a flash of an idea.

“Your Majesty, may I have a word with you about the reward?”

“Yes, You may.”

“Thank you.”

The king, smiling with relief at the defeat of the menace known as Barzeph, nodded his head in a very happy manner.

I know it’s an absurd wish, but…

However, there is one thing I can do to stay by Princess Leia’s side not only at this moment, but in the future as well. while he is being hailed as a hero or something.

“Your Majesty, would you be willing to assign me to the duties of Princess Leia’s personal guard?”

The king, Morgan-san, and the princess all widened their eyes at this.
