Lerisha’s new Guardian Knight was quite an interesting person. Watching her chatting with Lerisha, she doesn’t look like a guardian knight, but like Lerisha’s older sister. Seeing the guardian knight talking to the princess lightly like this, she could tell what a benevolent person Lerisha was. If she was a princess with a bad personality, she would blow up her fans! It was a level that would have been severely punished immediately after making her sound.

“Then the princess… No, he was a Guardian Knight now. Me today Laricha von Melloyer will have a solid day as always.”

“Sure. Guardian Knight Mary… Princess Lelisha.”

The guardian knight nodded. She lifts the hem of her school uniform skirt to her sides and greets her gracefully.

“Then the princess… Don’t worry about the lecturer’s lecture. Have a nice date.”

“Yes. She lives thanks to thank you… What, a date!? How many times have I told you it’s not a date! No. Do not trust Woros!”

“…… “

Lerisha’s guardian knight smiles only at the corner of her mouth with her emotionless eyes. She seems to be that kind of person in the first place. Her Lerisha tried to catch her, but, befitting her guardian knight, she evaded all of her hands with her tremendous body movements.

“Then I will leave. I have to take a lecture.”

“Wait! Correct me! Correct me! Woros misunderstands!”

“Have a nice date.”

Then she laughed. She seemed to be serious, as this time she even smiled. Then, she left the scene at breakneck speed.

“Well, it’s not a date… Woros! That… I-I didn’t come with such a light heart.”

“I know.”

“Do you believe me? I. It was serious! Well, it’s related to the danger of the empire. Yes? You don’t believe the joke of the Guardian Knight, do you?”

Unlike Princess Lerisha, she was extremely agitated. In fact, whether or not she thinks it’s a date has nothing to do with me. I have no complaints as long as I can get things done.

With that in mind, he nodded her head, and Lerry Xia let out a sigh of relief as if she was relieved.

Then, while fanning with her hand, she kicked her childishly on the ground. It wasn’t reassuring, it was just pressed.

“Princess, shall we depart soon? I don’t have much time.”

“Yes. I do. I won’t ask where you are.”

“Yes?”

“That… It’s more fun if you don’t know… “

Lerisha hurriedly shuts her mouth. She must have said that the Guardian Knight was dating and everything, she didn’t just say it. Looking closely, Lerisha’s hairstyle has strangely changed. Could it be that she really came out thinking it was a date?

As long as I work hard, I have no intention of saying anything about enjoying the present. No, I don’t even have the right to say anything. But I think I should at least briefly explain where I’m going and who I’m meeting.

“We are going to meet some pretty big guys.”

“A big shot?”

“Yes. A living figure from the time of Shaiza. They are also beings who live in the Elana Education District because of a specific contract.”

Lerisha narrowed her eyes, as if not believing me. She doesn’t seem to believe in the mysterious being because she’s never been to me or to the hidden place inside her academy. If she were the people in my shop, she would have believed me without question.

“Maybe from the princess’ point of view, meeting him could be luck.”

“What do you mean?”

“As far as I know, the person I am meeting this time is. I heard that you had a deep collegial relationship with the emperor of the Meloyer Empire in the era when Arisha Academy was just established.”

When the story of the ancestors came out, Lerisha’s eyes widened.

“Is that true?”

“Yes. To be honest, I don’t really care about her, but she could be a little special to the princess.”

“That, who is that?”

“If you go, you will know.”

Today’s destination is the territory of the Melgard Military Academy in District 8. The military academy is a military academy where graduates of Arisha Academy attend.

Even though it’s a school, he was commissioned from outside to guard the school. Monster subjugation. Since students are dispatched as if they are going on a field trip with the engineer in charge after receiving a mission such as stationing, the visible population is small compared to the size of the land. This is what is called practical training.

During the vacation period when all the dispatched students return, drinking parties take place here and there, making it a fun place.

Anyway, the 7th district with the Shiza graduate school and the 8th district with the military academy are extremely large, and there are many undeveloped districts. It is also a place where there are as many mysterious places as the undiscovered gray forest. A secret location is connected to the Ashen Forest in Area 3.

The place we are heading to is one of those mysterious places.

“Have you heard of a place called Melgard Battlefield, Princess?”

“It’s a historic site designated by Melgard himself. I’ve heard of it a lot, but I’ve never actually been there.”

“Yes. Because it is a forbidden area, you will be punished just for entering. The place we are heading to today is the Melgard Battlefield.”

“That’s a forbidden area, is it okay to enter?”

Lerisha looks worried. Even so, her eyes twinkle as if she is expecting it in her heart. If it is a ruin related to Melgard, it will be a place that most Melgard students will want to visit.

Maybe that’s not the reason, maybe it’s just that I want to sneak into forbidden areas.

“It’s okay. Oh, and the princess, I have one thing to warn you about.”

“Yes. Tell me please.”

“The existence you meet now. So, never be small or young in front of him. You shouldn’t say anything cute.”

“Yes?”

Lerisha tilts her head at my words. I asked him not to ask and to follow my words. That’s how we entered the tower-like military academy building in the middle of District 8.

There are people wearing armor busily moving around, but no one pays attention to us. Yes, this is a place that even the students of Arisha Academy often come and go, so even if we enter, no one looks at us curiously.

“Perhaps, if I had been wearing a red or blue cape, I would have come to ask why.”

“I guess Shaiza students can come in freely?”

“Yes. Potions and various household medicines can be found in the Shaiza students’ store. Bring in the items made for the assignment. For that reason, Shaiza students often come and go. Look over there.”

In the direction I pointed, the 4th year female students of Shaiza. It was seen that he was conversing with the students of the military academy.

“That’s right. I had no idea.”

“It makes sense. Even though they have the same name Melguard, the Melguard class and the military academy are different.”

So I passed through the corridors of the military academy and went down the stairs to enter the deep basement. The building was decorated as luxuriously as possible, but the basement felt different.

Unpolished stone walls. Damp floor. Unpleasant kerosene smell. And there are torches on the walls. The upper floor was decorated with luxurious lighting using luminous plants, so it is hard to believe that it is the same building as there.

“The atmosphere is very different from the upper part.”

“Yes. She says that when Melgard was alive, she used this place as a prison. It is now a place that is all used as a material warehouse.”

“A prison in the school district?”

“You’ll soon find out why there was a prison here.”

While talking about that, I approached the end of the hallway. It was a dead end blocked by a stone wall, but let me put my hand on the wall. The stone wall splits and the path opens.

“Let’s go.”

“… Yes.”

Lerisha gulps down and enters the open road. Then the wall closes and the road is blocked. She was looking at the blocked road with a worried expression.

“Woros… Here it is.”

The place we entered was a square room, literally empty, with absolutely nothing except for a torch. Lerisha puts her hand on her chin and thinks something serious about her, and her face blushes.

“Whoa, Woros. What are you planning to do by bringing me to such a gloomy place?”

“I came to activate the secret passage.”

“Ah, my heart is still ready… A secret passage?”

Nodding my head, I walked towards the blank wall. Then, a rusty iron chain came down from the ceiling. As I pull the chain without hesitation, dust rises with the sound of gears turning.

“This way, Princess, hold on tight anywhere.”

“Yes!”

Lerisha suddenly approaches me. She closes her eyes tightly and holds my hand tightly. It was when I felt embarrassed by her sudden action. Suddenly, her body felt like floating in midair.

“What, what happens—”

“This whole room is going deep underground! Let go of my hand and grab the wall—”

Kwang!ㅡ Kwajik!ㅡ

“Ugh!”

I fell sideways from the tremendous impact. Originally, she was supposed to hold on to the wall, but because of Lerisha, she couldn’t hold on to anything. Due to the tremendous vibration that continued for nearly a minute, I rolled over and over while lying face down on the floor.

The problem is that Lerisha, who was taken aback by the greater shock than expected, was holding my body tightly. With the princess and her body wrapped in bags like that, we rolled across the floor to the extent that we were covered in dust.

“Ha ha, ha ha… Ugh. Woros, it’s okay… Kyaaak!”

When the vibration stopped, Lerisha suddenly screamed and fell away from me. She feels pretty bad when she hugs herself and reacts like that.

Leri Sha, who had fallen away from me, clamped her finger in her darling and stomped her foot. Then, as if she realized something, her eyes widened.

“That… Woros.”

“Yes.”

“Sorry. Because of me… “

“I’m glad you noticed.”

Realizing that because of her own careless behavior, Lerry Shah politely apologized after realizing that we had fallen on the floor.
