There was no reason, so even Duke Shahavier doubted whether this was a forged letter.

"Who is trying to sow discord between our two families...but this is indeed Kane's handwriting and seal."

The Duke paced up and down in his room, and received no reply to the several letters he sent.

Did something happen? But King Kane's character shouldn't be like this. At this time, a servant reported that he heard that King Garnet's temperament changed drastically and he kept himself locked in the room. In fact, it was Princess Ladia is in charge.

After hearing this, Duke Sajavir began to become restless.As a result, the originally harmonious family atmosphere became discordant, and Noelle had heard his parents quarreling many times.

"Hmph, I think it's best not to associate with them."

Sylvie sat on a rock on the side and looked at her brother and said angrily.

"Ahaha, don't say that, Sylvie. You have also gotten along with Chris. She is a good child. She and I have been communicating through letters. There must be a misunderstanding about this matter."

"Why do you like her so much..."

"Huh? What did you say?"

"Nothing at all."

She didn't want to answer this slow brother.Alas, it should be said that he is dedicated.

At this time, the middle-aged deacon at home came back from outside in a panic on horseback.

Noelle immediately felt that something was unusual.

Normally, Mr. Deacon would not let his uniform show any wrinkles no matter how hurried he was. He carried out everything in the Shahavier family gracefully. Without him, I don’t know what kind of chaos this family would be.

"What's wrong, August?"

"Huh... Well, let's talk about it later. Master, eldest lady, you'd better come with me. This matter is very important to the Shahavier family."

Deacon August gasped as he strode towards the steps of the mansion.

It was really a very important matter. Noelle had never seen him like this before.

Is it about Chris?

When they arrived at their father's room, everyone was shocked by the news August brought.

"Are you kidding me? August, a large number of demons have appeared on the surface? The empire in the south has not been destroyed yet."

Duke Sahavil raised his eyebrows, obviously he was angered by the deacon's words.

Absolutely absurd.

"But Rodeculo Saiint of Garnet has perished. Sir, the demon king's name is Black Yao. The people who escaped from Garnet spread the news."

"what?"

Noelle spoke first.

"Rodkulosaint? Why, there is no reason!"

"Shut up, Noelle... August, you know the consequences of fooling me."

"Yes, Master Laurent, I never meant that."

Lauren, the head of the Sajavir family, nodded, indicating that he could continue.

The news is disappointing. A large number of monsters have appeared from Lodacolo Site, and their presence is also spreading around the royal city. If this continues, not only the royal city, but even the entire Garnet will be invaded by monsters. destroy.

Some border nobles have begun to seek help from Gilkern.

"What does our King say?"

"'Please give your full assistance. This matter is also related to the survival of Gilkern. The monsters are now rampant on the continent of Eogard. A new demon king has been born. Please exercise justice on behalf of the goddess.' Sir, this is Those are His Majesty’s exact words.”

"Where are the reinforcements?"

"Your Majesty, please wait."

"Fuck justice."

Lauren cursed angrily.

Do you dare to ask us to act as a shield for him without giving him any help?Even if you become a duke, you won't be looked down upon by that idiot king. My heroic king, your descendants are such a headache.

"What should we do now? Master..."

"Now I have no choice but to work together with the remaining families of Garnet to join forces and fight together, and build a fortress in front of Mount Fea to resist the demons on the front line. Even so, I don't want to side by side with those families with a bad reputation. Fight, otherwise it will be terrible to be stabbed in the back by them. You go and summon the vassals, and then everyone makes a decision together, which ones to cooperate with, and which ones to let perish."

"Yes, sir."

Duke Laurent sat down on the chair tiredly and waved for the deacon to leave.

Noelle and Sylvie also bowed and left.

"August, is there any news about Chris?"

"No, Master, I deeply regret this. It is said that none of the nobles in the city escaped this disaster."

"Is that so..."

His reaction was calm, not that he had been mentally prepared or anything.Even if a little bird next to him dies, he will be sad. He no longer knows how to respond.

"Noelle."

"Leave me alone for a while, Sylvie."

"..."

A man came to the cliff and looked at the sky in the distance.

Garnet has only been to this place once and only has one memory left.

She will never come again.

Obviously they were still so good before.

is no longer there.

Why!

There has been no movement for 300 years, so why did it appear at this time?

The boy clenched his fists, feeling real anger for the first time in his life.

This is all the monsters' fault.

Chrissy, Chrissy.I must, must avenge you.

absolute!

You have to get stronger.

"elder brother!"

A girl's voice came from behind.

My sister Sylvie stood there, gasping for air. She used wind magic and ran to the boy.

"Sylvie, ugh! It hurts."

Noelle was slapped by the angry girl.

Only then did he calm down a little.I feel disgusted with my own impulse, what on earth was I thinking just now.

Fighting the monsters now is just a matter of death, and Sestotia will definitely be attacked next.

Therefore, I must live well and inherit this family.

"Thank you, Sylvie. But, ow, ow, ow."

Tears fell uncontrollably.

The figure with silver hair and red eyes will never be forgotten once you see it.

Her smile and angry look are very cute.

Although they had only been together for a few days, the boy was already obsessed with this girl.

Even he himself didn't realize why he came outside to practice his sword every morning.

I just hope to see her appear on the plains of Sestotia at the end of the year.

"Brother, let me sing to you."

Seeing him like this, Sylvie restored her original name for him.

Noelle nodded slightly.

The girl behind him stretched out her arms to hug him and raised her lips to pronounce the first syllable.

"Close your eyes, don't let me see only sadness from my pupils~~?"

The singing voice carried by the clear voice gradually became louder.

Accompanied by birds, her voice reaches across the sky.

"Tell your story, my beloved.

It’s okay if you don’t want to say it, but if it hurts, please come back.

It's not just fate that sleeps in distant memories.

Let the sadness in your eyes flow into the long river far away.

I hope I can still recall the scenery of my hometown.

I have become accustomed to pain, but cannot adapt to tears.

Please open your eyes and look at hope.

If it hurts, please come back.

The person I love~~?”

Chapter 54 54. End of Prologue, Faith of Flame

"Those demons have left, opportunity, Ollie!"

The girl with short silver hair quietly patted the boy on the shoulder, and the two of them bent down and slipped away from the door.

"I seem to smell human scent."

"Idiot, there is human smell everywhere."

"that's true……"

Bodies everywhere covered their escape from Lodculosaint.

Since they were not considered high-level demons, they probably didn’t notice the two of them.

The chance encounter with Ollie happened around dawn. During the escape process, Ladia escaped into a shop on the street and found the child.

If it weren't for the illumination of light magic, she might have killed the child right then and there.

She really didn't expect to meet a living person. On the way to the city below the city, Ladia just paid attention to the activities of the monsters. In order to avoid making any noise, she threw away her exquisite full-body armor and walked on the road with only her sword. Unexpectedly, the "Dawn Star" sword was also taken away during the battle with a demon.

There is no other way. It is already a miracle that we can escape here.

If he hadn't been hiding in the basement of the enchantment shop, Ollie would not be alive now. Seeing the children who also survived due to miracles, he naturally wanted to help.

He is the adopted brother of the attendant beside Chris, and he has some impression of him because he has met him before.

"Finally escaped."

"Well, escaped."

Ladia's face was not facing the young boy, but facing the forest in the distance.

That place has left the scope of the royal city.

He answered Ollie calmly, holding tightly the citrine necklace given by his mother in his hand.

His arm was broken when he fell from the sky, but it was fine because of the protective magic and this necklace.

"I really escaped..."

Throwing away his armor, he fled desperately.

Ladia searched her mind and couldn't find such embarrassing memories.

If only it was a dream, but she immediately threw this thought out of her mind, her will was not that weak.
