Chapter 121

Whiiing-.

A chill enveloped my flesh.

Amelia, who was walking in the lead, stuck her sword into the thick snow.

Charlotte raised her fist high as she looked at the children following her.

Amelia rolled her eyes and scolded him.

“There is no way you can understand Windsor’s sign language.”

“Yes? “This is universal.”

Amelia sighed.

“I think I believe that...”

Amelia pursed her lips when she saw that the students all stopped.

“Hehe.”

Charlotte laughed because Amelia was cute.

“Hey- by the way.”

Charlotte looked around with her characteristic bright expression.

No matter where you look, there is only a snowstorm.

“You’re wonderfully lost.”

“....”

Charlotte squinted one eye.

Amelia subtly avoided her gaze.

“Joe, just go back a little bit. “This is the right way.”

“hmm. “Maybe it’s because it comes from Northern Representative Gilchi, but I can’t trust it that much.”

“I don’t want to hear anything from Charles!”

“Oh really?”

Amelia ground her molars and shook her fists.

Charlotte was famous as an ‘idiot’ even in the Knights of Windsor. In fact, even in the annual knight corps evaluation, ‘his ability is beyond doubt.’ However, there was a short but clear phrase attached to it that said, “Your head is a flower garden.”

‘Anyway, it’s a big deal.’

Amelia opened her eyes hesitantly.

I’ve been denying it, but I feel like I’ve lost my way.

To make matters worse, a snowstorm had started earlier, making it difficult to secure visibility.

No matter how much I strengthened my eyes with magic, I couldn’t see any structures.

‘...I can’t reveal it honestly. Then, there will be great chaos.’

I glanced at the nervous students.

Although it is protected by Ella’s magic, there will be a limit to the amount of Sophia’s magical power.

‘Why am I...’

Is even such a simple task difficult?

Amelia let out a weak sigh, but came to her senses by slapping her cheek with both hands.

“Charles. “Isn’t there some way?”

“You know? “Ame.”

Charlotte grinned.

“I’m Gilchi too.”

“...”

Amelia’s shoulders slumped.

“But in times like this, the best thing to do is to follow the monster’s footsteps.”

“The presence of a monster?”

“This is a method I often use. “Because monsters usually have the instinct to attack humans.”

Amelia nodded seriously and pulled out her sword.

“I will detect it.”

“There’s no need to detect it.”

Just as the magic power was being spread thinly and widely.

Amelia realized what Charlotte meant.

“It’s right in front of you.”

“Maybe there’s a village around here.”

Amelia shouted to the students.

“There is a monster! Everyone please be careful!”

The students became noisy, but quickly calmed down, as if to prove that they had not paid attention to the previous training.

Hercy ran to Amelia.

“Amelia. Can I help?”

“Hercy, please keep an eye on whether any students are scared and leave.”

“yes!”

Hercy nodded without hesitation.

“Koooooo-!”

Not far away, a troll shot Peer.

Students with low magical power became stiff and could not move.

“Ice troll.”

Amelia’s eyes sank.

Boom, boom!

I heard the sound of a heavy body running.

It weighs so much that the ground shakes.

Amelia lowered her posture.

“Do you want me to help you?”

“Wow... it’s not even a line. You missed the mark by a long time. “If I had continued like this, I would have ended up in a foreign country.”

In the southwest of the empire is the Kingdom of Parmus. Of course, no matter how much she walked, she would never get there, but Charlotte exaggerated for no reason.

However, Windsor’s serious article was immediately revised.

“no! “I said it’s on the outskirts, but since it’s right next to the first defense line, there’s no need to go all the way to Farmus Kingdom!”

“....”

A moment of awkward silence passed between them.

“S-sorry.”

Vincent became sullen.

“But investigating ruins is a rare thing. “Are there still ruins that we haven’t identified?”

Amelia asked with curiosity.

“sorry! “We haven’t heard that information, so we can’t give you an answer!”

Amelia decided to take care of her students first.

Since we had been walking without stopping until now, everyone must have been very tired.

“They are students at the Imperial Academy. “This time, I came to the first defense line for a field trip.”

“yes!”

“Sir Vincent, please give them a place to rest and warm blankets.”

“Boo, please. A command is enough. yes! All right. We will prepare it right away. hey!”

Vincent immediately called another knight and nodded at the academy students and said something.

The driver told the students to follow him.

The students looked at Amelia with a little fear. Amelia nodded as if it was okay. I followed the knights, led by Hersi.

As the students filed out, Vincent spoke to Amelia.

“I’ll prepare a briefing!”

The Knights of Windsor have a thorough manual.

When a superior comes, a briefing must be given. Military status and damage status. Tactics, etc.

To be precise, it felt like taking over the current military force.

This was not a defense line, but it was a procedure that every knight of Windsor had to follow.

Amelia had no intention of denying that either. I was also curious.

The discovery of ruins. In ruins, ‘mysteries’ are usually buried. Amelia was excited at the thought that she might see a new miracle.

“This way!”

Vincent led the way to the captain’s barracks. I stood still and waited near the entrance.

“Wow, the barracks were built well.”

“Thank you!”

Vincent was greatly moved.

Playfulness sparkled in Charlotte’s eyes.

“Hmm. “But there are a lot of rocks on the floor.”

“...!”

Vincent’s pupils shook.

Charlotte smiled and waved her hand.

“I’m kidding. I’m kidding. don’t mind.”

“Yes, yes...!”

Amelia looked at Charlotte with cold, salty eyes.

This was Charlotte’s usual prank.

I wanted to scold her, but considering Charlotte’s authority, I shouldn’t have done such a thing.

Amelia sighed and entered the barracks.

-Extinguish all the stones in this area!

-yes!

Charlotte couldn’t hold back her laughter at the urgent voice she heard right away.

“Puhup.”

“Charles, you’re evil.”

“It’s cute. “Okay then.”

Charlotte sits leisurely on the sofa with her arms crossed and the back of her neck resting.

Amelia also sat facing each other. There was a huge map on the table, and on top of it were what looked like chess pieces.

But then.

Charlotte’s smile gradually dried up.

Soon, his complexion became pale, as if he had an upset stomach. The color gradually drained from my face.

Amelia asked curiously.

“Charles? “Did I eat breakfast wrong?”

“I, I, I, I.”

“?”

Charlotte raised her trembling hand and pointed somewhere.

Amelia slowly turned her head.

And then I saw it.

Victoria was looking at me from the corner of the barracks with an expressionless face.

And, Ruid was fast asleep on her lap.

Victoria said with an indifferent face.

“Charle. I haven’t seen you before so you’ve become a lot more arrogant.”

“sorry!”

thud!

Charlotte immediately hit the head.
