Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 233.3
Currently, the royal family’s power is weakened and it is not easy to send out the Knights. This is a king who is so kind to his family. He must be conflicted about killing his own brother.
Also, if he sends out the Knights without any proof, the nobles will take advantage of that. If that happens, the current movement to make Elena queen may be in vain.
It will be a political blow to Melrose and Dandol, who are supporting Princess Elena. But–
“Good for now”
I am relieved that Feld has informed me that if Amol’s rebellion is confirmed by Melrose or Dandol, it will be possible to send out the Knights.
Considering the distance from here, it would take about half a day… If I could defend it by myself, and if I could just stop Amol and the immortals until then, there was still hope.
“That’s not good!”
Hearing my muttering, Elena removed her face from my shoulder and grabbed me by the collar.
“You might die if you face more than a hundred immortals! No matter how strong Aria is, you’re still a “human”!”
“Elena…”
There aren’t many opponents who can fight me individually. But there is a limit to what a human can do alone.
Especially since I was fully committed to individual combat, I would really have to risk my life to face a trained army.
Elena, who had been glaring at me at my careless remark, suddenly relaxed her fingers that were gripping my collar and lowered her eyes.
“I’m sorry.”
“Why are you apologizing? I was the one who acted selfishly.”
“That’s not it. You just wanted to live freely… but my selfishness put Aria in danger. And now you’re relying on me again.”
“This is the path I chose.”
Elena’s selfishness was also my wish.
I wanted to be by my friend’s side… I couldn’t put such a simple wish into words, and I felt the same way.
But–that’s why.
“Trust me.”
I will protect Elena. I will grant her wish. That is my “vow.”
“That’s unfair…”
Elena muttered and looked up, and a slightly bitter smile appeared on her face.
“Aria, you won’t push yourself too hard, right?”
“I will be reckless.”
“That’s fine. That’s who you are.”
She smiled slightly as she said that.
Elena never says, “Don’t die.” I never say “I won’t die.”
Just as I have my own battles, Elena has her own battles. Elena, no longer a 14-year-old girl, has returned to her face as a princess and speaks to me as a member of the royal family as I head to the battlefield.
“Brother Amol… If Dandol and Melrose confirm his rebellion, I, in the name of the First Princess Elena, authorize him to end his life. His Majesty the King will not be able to complain about this. Defeat Brother Amol.”
“Understood.”
She shook her eyes slightly at me as I answered briefly as usual.
Elena protects me as a member of the royal family.
I agreed to fulfill her “royal command” as her warrior, and we turned our backs on each other and headed to our own battlefields.
