Chapter 23 - Knight and Former Knight 【POV: Shana Salazar】 My name is Shana Salazar. I am a warrior. … ……………… …..hm? What else should I say? Well then...I come from the Baal empire. I’m 20 years old. I used to be an adventurer, but due to certain circumstances currently I’m the bodyguard and lover of Dyngir Maxwell, a noble of the Lamperouge kingdom. My main weapon is the spear, but I can also hold my own with the sword and bow. That day, I was swinging my spear at the…

Chapter 25 - Eve of the Decisive Battle - The Fallen Wise General 【POV: Snowe Halphas】 “Here...at last.” I quietly whispered to myself as I looked up at Fort Bryden, a key stronghold of the Maxwell territory. Fort Bryden was a square-shaped fortress. The steep mountains on its west side made it impossible to house a large army, so it could only be assaulted from the other three cardinal directions. The imperial forces had already surrounded the fort. The First Imperial Army would attack from…

Chapter 17 - Conspiracies on All Sides “ — now Lady Rossellia’s safety is secured.” “Excellent. Sorry I had you report this late at night.” It was well into the night when Sakuya approached me as I was laying in bed. I praised her and the other Fangs for following my orders to the letter and nodded, satisfied. “We do not deserve such words, Milord: acting during the night is our specialty.” Sakuya bowed politely, then raised her head. “By the way, may I ask what could have been the…

Chapter 16 - Self-Proclaimed Loyal Knight The men had gathered in a building previously used as a trader’s storehouse, a short distance from the inn where Rossellia Baal and her entourage temporarily resided. “...the princess’ assassination failed, then.” “Yeh, Sir, we got the guards and the rest with poison, but then some bizarre folks showed up, so everybody except me died, yeh...” “Hmph...” The man listened to the assassin’s report and snorted. (Such ruffians couldn’t take the life…

Chapter 15 - A Goddess in Peril 【POV: Rossellia Baal】 “Princess, you will be sick if you do not eat...” “I’m fine, please take it away.” “Princess...” I was in my room in an inn in Avalon, capital of the Maxwell province, where I was staying with my entourage. Ten imperial knights and my personal maid, Luna, accompanied me into the Maxwell domain. Rajang Salazar, captain of the imperial guards, wanted to accompany me as well, but in order not to alert the Lamperouge royal family of our…

Chapter 13 - No Assaulting, Violating or Defiling “....Sakuya!!” “Yes, my Lord.” “Eeeeh!?” I called the young assassin’s name out of the blue. She appeared before us suddenly, causing Rossellia to react in surprise. “Give me a needle!” “Yes, my Lord.” I took the needle Sakuya gave me and stabbed my left arm, without hesitation. “Eeeh!? What in the world are you doing!?” “OOW!!” Enduring the pain transmitted from my left arm, I once again looked at Rossellia. The beautiful…

Chapter 12 - Revealed Face “I am deeply grateful for your invitation, Margrave Maxwell.” Rossellia bowed deeply, her face still hidden by the veil. I couldn’t see her expression, but I could tell that the imperial princess, who was the same age as me, was nervous. (Rossellia Baal...was her name, right. This is kind of...disappointing.) I was looking forward to seeing the beauty of the century, but she wouldn’t show her face. I couldn’t help but feel my shoulders drop. “Oh no, you honor us with…

Chapter 11 - Concealed Face Rossellia Baal, First Princess of the Baal Empire. All I knew about her was that she was kept sheltered inside the imperial court and rarely ever appeared in public, that she was eighteen years old and — apparently — a breathtaking, blonde beauty. One of the Fangs of Steel members infiltrated in the empire reported that, according to some merchants allowed access to the imperial court, Rossellia was “Just like an angel! One glance and you could’t ever forget…
