The sun rose and me and Nina returned to our respective houses.


    Nina''s house seems to be the house where Felix originally lived. Felix''s family is gone now, so he''s renting it by himself.


    When I returned to the house, everyone was awake except Viviana.


    She had retreated from the bedclothes as if she was hot, and her shirt was slightly rolled up, revealing her belly.


    ''Eric, good morning. Are you okay?


    Christo asks me that as soon as I come back.


    He probably asked Mr. Liberto why I wasn''t there.


    ''Good morning Christo. Yeah, everything''s fine.


    Well, I''m chilled to death when I heard you were attacked.


    "The prince seemed to be sleeping very soundly.


    I said this in a sarcastic tone to Christo, who was asleep during my attack and hadn''t noticed, and he scratched his cheek with his index finger in an embarrassing manner.


    ''Normally you wouldn''t be able to wake up and feel the killing intent.


    Well, maybe.


    I could tell because I was turned on for the kill, and then he crotched me in the gut, but I feel like Mr. Liberto, who just sensed the kill and woke up, is more awesome.


    ''Hmm?　What''s up with you guys, look at me.


    Christo looked at Mr. Liberto as if he thought the same thing as I did.


    ''No, nothing,''


    It''s time to wake up Viviana.


    You''re not a very good dancer, are you?


    I woke Viviana up, letting Mr. Liberto''s questions flow appropriately.


    Then we got ready to leave.


    Viviana was useless in her sleep, so we left her alone and the three of us finished most of our preparations.


    We went to the outside stable and as we were getting the horses out, the villagers approached us.


    ''Are you going to go now?''


    ''I haven''t been able to repay you yet, sir...''


    The residents seemed to be quite disciplined, and they seemed to think about returning the favor.


    ''We just happened to pass by and helped because we had the power to help. We don''t owe them that much. Besides, we''ve already been given some information and such, so that''s enough for us.


    Christo explained that and convinced the residents to do so.


    The inhabitants were not happy at first, but when he promised to come back, they backed down.


    After this, we will go to King''s Landing and stay for a few days before returning home, so perhaps we can stop by the settlement again on our way back.


    Please come by and we''ll prepare a more lavish meal this time.


    Yes, I''ll take you up on that.


    I watched as the chief and Christo shook hands and said that as I connected the horse and carriage and finished getting the carriage ready, and then the hem of my clothes was tugged on.


    I looked over there and saw Nina pulling on her clothes.


    It reminded me of Tina when I was in the village, but Nina is taller than me, so it''s kind of weird.


    ''Good morning Nina. Did you sleep well?


    ''There''s no way I could sleep. I''ve been attacking and talking to the person who attacked me the whole time.


    I know.


    Nina covers her hand over her mouth, but she can''t hide her lack of attention.


    Viviana and Liberto look at us warily, but we give them a look and tell them it''s okay.


    ''Are we going to go now?''


    Yeah, we''re travelers.


    I see it''s still set up that way.


    Don''t say "setup".


    For some reason this guy seems to realize that we''re not travelers.


    ''How can the guy who killed your brother be just a traveler?


    Well, that''s how you know.


    ''No, I noticed it before that, but it''s what made me so sure.


    By the way, yesterday, when Christo was explaining that he was a traveler, you saw through it as a lie.


    ''Where are you going?''


    "I''m going to King''s Landing.


    So....


    Nina looked down when she heard where we were going.


    She lived in the underground city of King''s Landing, so she must have a few thoughts.


    ''''The reason you people are going to King''s Landing is to see what''s going on in King''s Landing?


    Well, you''re right.


    ''''I''ve traveled with my brother and seen a lot of places, so I kind of get it, but when you go to King''s Landing, I want you to see the back of the city, not just the front of it.


    She said that in a slightly shaky voice.


    ''Back,'' she said, ''I mean, look at the underground mall and so on.


    "Look in the back and let me know what you feel. Are you coming back?


    Yeah, maybe.


    Then you can tell me when you''re ready.


    We''re going to see different parts of that country and Christo is going to learn something as a prince.


    As soon as Christo learns, I''ll be able to feel something then too.


    ''Okay, I promise.''


    Nina smiled with satisfaction as she said this with firm eye contact.


    When we finished talking, Christo also seemed to have finished talking with the chief and the residents, and we were ready to leave.


    I''ll be the first one to ride in the front groom''s seat as I''ll be the groom, and the three of us will ride in the back.


    After confirming that the three of us had gotten on, the residents said, "Thank you very much! And so on and so forth, and he bows his head.


    I was about to move the carriage as I lightly nodded my head too.


    I could see a group of people on horseback coming from in front of me.


    Their numbers are still too far away to tell, but it looks like there are more than twenty of them.


    ''''What''s that?''''


    As I said this, Mr. Liberto''s face twisted as he poked his head out from behind and looked at the group in front of him.


    ''You''re armed. Are you here to attack us again?''


    Mr. Liberto gets out of the carriage and tries to get ready for battle.


    I get out of the groom''s seat and place my hand on the hilt of my sword.


    ''It''s okay,''


    I heard Nina say this from behind Mr. Liberto.


    ''Oh?　What?


    My guardian angel is on it. You will never enter this settlement.


    Is that so?


    You can come out from the inside, but it''s extremely difficult to get in from the outside. You''ll need someone with more magic than me to do it.


    Indeed, Nina''s magic power is so powerful that it will be difficult to break it.


    ''''Is that...?''''


    As the group approached and the outfit and other features came into view, the chief exclaimed in astonishment.


    ''What''s the matter?''　Do you recognize that group?


    When Christo asks that question, the chief looks at the group once more firmly before answering.


    ''''From the look of that armor, I believe they are soldiers of the kingdom.


    "Soldiers of the Kingdom?　Are you sure?


    Yes, that armor is worn by the soldiers of the kingdom.


    I also took a closer look and I''m pretty sure the soldiers I saw at the barrier were dressed like that.


    "They''re probably coming toward this settlement, but do you have any idea what they''re doing?


    ''I''ve heard that the soldiers in King''s Landing are going around the perimeter at the moment to make sure the settlements and villages are safe. That''s probably it.


    So, since the security situation has deteriorated since Felix''s death, the soldiers are working to control it.


    --Huh!


    A group of soldiers of the kingdom, as I look at it, I notice something.


    My heart trembles, my body trembles.


    It doesn''t matter to me what that group is or what their purpose is.


    Oh, I''m sure of it.


    There''s no way I could be wrong.


    It''s impossible for me to forget her face.


    In that group.


    There is one, and only one unarmed woman in the group.


    Reborn from a previous life on this side of the world.


    The girl I most wanted to see in this world.


    --Irene Harzion was there.
