Birthday Party Starts……And Then

Sponsored Content

 

We are waiting for the start and

“Alexia-sama, Lei-kun”

Helen came along.

“Ara, Helen.
Are the greetings alongside the Prime Minister fine?”

“It is fine.
In any case, they just say things like ‘How about my son’ or, ‘How about the loan’, I left it all to Otou-sama.
Otou-sama also said it is fine.
And ‘Good luck’ as well……”

I didn’t hear the last part but, is it fine to not participate in something like the marriage’s discussion?

“An, and, Lei-kun”

“What is it, Helen-san?”

“I, I also want to greet the people of your family but”

“Aa, I get it.
Over here”

I show Helen-san the way.
I’m bothered by Alexia grinning beside me though……

“Chichiue, Hahaue.
Is it a good time now?”

It’s right when they paused from greeting the other nobles so I talk to them.

“Oo, what is the matter, Lei.
Did you find a nice girl or something?”

What are you saying before Alexia? Look, Alexia’s eyes are squinting!

“Sieg, what are you saying.
Before Her Highness Alexia.
So, what’s the matter?”

“Ah, yes.
Chichiue probably knows but, there is someone who says she wants to greet Hahaue, over here is this country’s Prime Minister’s daughter, Helendine・Largous.
The person who’s teaching me my studies during my stay in the Royal Capital”

“Nice to meet you.
I am Helendine・Largous.
While my abilities are insignificant, I will do my best so that I can be of use to Lei-kun”

“Thank you for your thoughtfulness.
My name is Erislet・Runwalker.
Although Lei occasionally spaces out and doesn’t listen, he learns quickly so I think it will be a joy to teach him so please take care of him.
Although you are probably one of them as well”

Eris says that and Helen-san’s face turned beet red.
What’s with ‘one of them’? Alexia is giggling as well.
I don’t really get it.

After thinking such things

“Everybody, my apologies to have kept you waiting.
We will have the lead make her appearance from now on.
Well then, come forth, Marina!”

The King says that and Princess Marina comes in.

“Everybody! Thank you for attending my birthday party this day!”

Princess Marina’s speech finishes and the birthday party begins.
All the nobles give their greetings to the King and Princess Marina in the order of their peerage.
Come to think of it

“Is it fine for Alexia to be at a place like this? Not participating in that greetings”

At that greetings spot are, First Prince, Prince Albert along with Second Prince, Prince Alex.
Moreover, each of the queens is also doing the greetings.
And yet Alexia is by my side.

“Otou-sama said to just show off for now.
Ferris was also told that by the Beast King so she’s here”

“No, Alexia aside, Princess Ferris is fine isn’t it?”

“Why?”

“No, what do you mean why”

I look at Princess Ferris who’s eating dessert friendlily with Filia.
Maybe because it’s delicious, her tail is swinging and flapping in the air.

“She was forcibly told by the Beast King, right.
Let me stop something like that”

When I say that and about to go towards Princess Ferris, Alexia grabs my hand.

“Alexia?”

“Lei is dense huh.
You didn’t realise Helen’s matter as well”

What is she talking about?

At a time like that

“Lei.
It’s time to pay our greetings to Princess Marina soon.
Hey, Filia.
You have cream around your mouth.
You’re going to get scolded if Eris sees that~”

Sieg who says that as he wipes around Filia’s mouth.
It’s already the turn for that huh.

“What about Alexia?”

“Of course I’m going.
Ferris, let’s go! What about Helen?”

“Understood!”

“Hyaa! Th, then I as well……”

Why? We head towards where the King is with me not really understanding what’s going on.
The King grins when he notices us, even the Beast King is looking over here and grinning for some reason.
What in the world is it.

“Your Majesty.
We came to give our greetings.
Princess Marina.
Congratulations on your birthday”

“Thank you, Margrave.
I wonder if I should also say congratulations in advance?”

Princess Marina who then looks at us.

“Then shall we announce it.
Margrave”

“Understood.
Your Majesty”

Ah, come to think of it, they said they were going to announce it in the middle of the party.
Is it already the time for that! I’m becoming nervous.

And then the moment the King was about to say it

“Your Majesty.
Pardon me!”

, the door abruptly opens and a soldier who’s bleeding enters.

“What in the world is it! It’s currently halfway through the party!”

Over there, Imperial Guards Captain Gayn deals with it.

“My apologies, Imperial Guards Captain.
A while ago, criminals broke out from the Army Headquarters’ dungeon.
The number of escapees is about 100 and there are close to 20 amongst them who are carrying the aforementioned Demon Sword.
Army Captain and the others are fighting back but, Ripper Demon and Vampire who were on the lowest floor have also broken out amongst them and the majority of the army is dealing with that”

The assembly hall that was roused up until moments ago fell into silence.

“How in the world did something like that happen!”

“Fro, from the looks of it, somebody trespassed into the dungeon and passed the Demon Swords to Former Knights Captain Hendricks.
Furthermore, there are apparently Hendricks’ subordinates amongst the guards as well and it seems they helped with the breakout……”

Perhaps the sense of reality sunk in as everybody listens, they started to panic.

“Your Majesty! What are you doing? Let us quickly head to a safe location!”

“That is right! If the army is being deployed then please evacuate in the meantime!”

At that moment

Zuboーn!

It seems something broke the wall.

“KyaAAAAA!”

“Soldiers.
Immediately switch to defensive formation! Protect everybody who’s in the assembly hall!”

That’s right.
There is the Imperial Guards Order in the assembly hall.
The soldiers who move severally with Imperial Guards Captain Gayn’s instructions.

Thereupon, a soldier entered again.

“Your Majesty, it is the report.
Majority of the criminals have been secured or otherwise brought under control by killing but, those who possess the Demon Swords are still in a state of violence.
The Magician Squad including Magician Squad Captain Marin are defending at the defence wall in front of the Royal Castle now”

“Roughly how many people possess the Demon Swords?”

“About 20 people”

Nearly 20 people possess that Demon Swords huh.
It displayed that extent of power with just students using it.
If an adult, a criminal who’s trained uses that then won’t it be quite powerful?

“Imperial Guards Captain Gayn.
Immediately evacuate everybody in the assembly hall to the underground block.
They won’t be discovered easily if it’s over there.
I will head to the core and activate the advanced magic barrier.
With this, it can probably defend against the invasion”

“However, in that case, Your Majesty’s escorts!”

“I’m fine.
Margrave, can I have you come with me?”

“Of course, Your Majesty”

The King nominates Sieg.

“Understood, Your Majesty.
Sieg, I’ll be entrusting His Majesty to you”

“Aa, leave it to me”

They split up and move severally afterwards.
We also move to the underground block.
A couple minutes after we start to move.
As I thought, the speed is slow because there are a lot of people.

Near the Imperial Guards Captain Gayn are Princess Marina along with the royalties, and the Beast King along with the others.
It’s probably safe if it’s that side.

Near to me is Alexia and for some reason, Princess Ferris with Helen-san.
And then Eris with Filia, Chrona with Chloe.

“Isn’t it better for Alexia and the others to be that side?”

“It’s the same wherever for something like that.
Leaving that aside, in case anything happens”

Biribiri!

Uo! She started to tear her dress’ skirt all of a sudden.
Her beautiful legs are, I mean, even if you don’t tear it that easily.

“With this, I will take out my weapon as well”

Oo! Item Box huh! It’s a Magic Tool that’s imbued with Space Magic and because it’s rare, it’s expensive.
Even in the Runwalker family, only Sieg possesses it.
Sieg’s is a pouch style that attaches to his waist but, it seems Alexia’s is ring style.

“By the way, Alexia’s swords are”

“This? That’s right, these are also Demon Swords.
Dual Blade Twin Bell.
There’s the restriction that it can only be used by those who possess the dual blades skill.
In exchange, it displays quite the abilities if one is able to use it”

Hehー.
Demon Swords have various abilities huh.

“There are Demon Spear and whatnot in the Royal Palace’s armoury as well, does Lei want to take a look? There might be something good”

That sounds good but, is that fine?

We proceed down the corridor and,

Dogaーn! Dogaーn!

sounds were made.
It’s close.
The movements stop each time there are these sounds.
The nobles’ daughters start to cry, the sons are pretending to be tough but their legs are trembling.
I guess that’s also inevitable.
As I am thinking of something like that

Dogaーn!!

Wha! The wall nearby was broken!

“Hihihi! It’s just as expected! They evacuate the nobles if anything happens in the Royal Castle.
The path used at that occasion is only this path!”

“Hendricks, you bastard!”

“Oops, don’t move, Gayn.
Is it fine even if I cut the nobles?”

Imperial Guards Captain Gayn who can only stop when he’s told that.

And then Hendricks who’s about to slash a nearby noble’s girl.
Watch out! The moment I was about to go over, a white figure pass by my side.

That was

“Yaa!”

Princess Ferris.

Princess Ferris takes aim at Hendricks and punches.

“Wha! This fellow!”

However, Hendricks blocks Ferris’ fist with his sword.
And then

“Go to sleep!”

He kicks Princess Ferris’ stomach with all his strength.

“Gahaa! Ah……”

She lost her consciousness as it is.

“You bastard! You did that to Ferris!”

Beast King who saw that tries to go towards Hendricks but

“Oops, don’t move, Beast King.
Is it fine even if this princess’ head fly?”

Hendricks who puts his sword on Princess Ferris’ neck.

Imperial Guards Captain Gayn was able to change the troops’ formation during that time but a hostage was taken.

“I have just one objective, the Runwalker family’s shitty brat’s death! Furthermore, not an instantaneous death, I want to watch him die in agony!”

As I thought, he’s after me huh.
It seems he resents me quite a lot.

“Do you have any business with me, Former Captain Hendricks?”

“What an annoying brat.
Oi! Princess, wake up!”

He says that and uses Water Magic on Princess Ferris’ face.

“Uu! Wha, what? Ouch!”

Princess Ferris who holds her stomach the moment she woke up.

“Suffer while I have the Princess watch, you shitty brat.
First of all, shall I have you cut your dominant arm with this sword!”

And then he throws a sword at my feet.
Princess Ferris who heard that starts to fluster.

“Yo, you mustn’t! Lei! You mustn’t do something like that!”

If I remember correctly, as long as the arm remains, it can be healed if there’s a magician who can use High-Level Water Magic, is what I heard from Eris.

I pick the sword up.

“Yo, you mustn’t! You absolutely mustn’t! I’m begging you!”

Princess Ferris who begins to cry.

“It’s alright, Princess Ferris”

I smile to Princess Ferris.
And then

“HaAA!”

Zubaa! My right arm flew.

“GuuuuU!”

I drop the sword from the overwhelming pain.
Alexia and Eris are shouting but it’s so painful that I can’t hear it.
I look to my family’s direction and Filia and Chrona are bawling.

Haha, I showed them something disgusting huh.

“Leii! No way! That’s! Let go! I have to go! I have to quickly stop Lei’s bleeding!”

“Tch! What a noisy Princess.
Shall I change for some other person”

Hendricks who says that and holds his sword aloft.
As one would expect, I can’t let him do that.

I use the magic power that I had given to Hikarin bit by bit every day for when push comes to shove now.

“Hikarin, let’s go! Chao Vortex Body Endowment Three Fold!”

“Understood nano!”

I then pick the sword up and immediately move to Hendricks’ side.

“Wha!”

And then to the left hand that’s grabbing Ferris

“HaaaA!”

I cut!

“GyaAAAA! Left hand! My left hand iss!”

And at just the right time, over there

“You did great, boy”

the strongest in this country came.
