Chapter 103

Princess Mia Falls!

“Princess Mia, over here!”

“Cha!”

Suddenly, Mia was pulled forward that she stumbled towards the front of the wagon.

“Up!? What’s the matter !?”

She caught herself on time not to vomit the contents of her stomach. Mia tried to complain, but when she raised her face, she saw Sion, who had a serious expression. She followed his gaze...

“What !?”

The wagon cover was flipped, and a man stepped in. He was dressed in black from the top of his head to his toes. He looked at the four people and then pulled a sword from his waist. It looked a little shorter than a knight’s sword.

“A bandit!?”

Mia screamed when she saw the glint of the blade.

“Good grief, don’t you know that you are scaring the ladies? ”

Keithwood says while stepping in. He already has his sword ready in his hand. He gave a sharp thrust while stepping in. His aim was the enemy’s sword arm. There was a clang of metal as his sword was met with the enemy’s sword. The way the enemy parried Keithwood’s sword was almost as good as Prince Sion’s.

At the same time, the enemy’s counterattack began. Keithwood was forced to step back. When he saw a slight opening before a powerful blow, he stepped again to counterattack. However, the enemy deflected Keithwood’s sharp attack. This flurry of slashing and counters went on that the hood of the carriage was brutally torn and it fluttered in the wind.

“You’re able to top my attacks, huh? Your Highness, be careful. It looks like he’s not an ordinary thief.”

“I agree. His movements are not that of an amateur.”

Sion nods with a serious face.

“Who are you? An assassin or something?”

She also remembered how reliable he was. After all, the power that once threatened her is now being used to protect her. Somehow, Mia’s confidence in Sion is growing.

As expected of Prince Sion. He will surely kill these bandits with an ease. I’m sure he has defeated many bandits before.

Mia was starting to be optimistic. Now she is supporting her friends as if she was watching a sports match.

“Well, who wants to have the honor of being the first victim of my blade?”

Si- On. Go, Sion, go. Si- on. Wait!? Did he just say first? This is his first time?!

Immediately, her anxiety returned.

Uh... Maybe I should watch this from a safer distance.

Then, it was exactly when Mia tried to move toward a safer distance...

The wagon hit a bump and the whole wagon bounced up.

“............What?”

Mia felt a strange floating feeling. Then she felt the slap of the torn hood at her back. Finally, there was a dizzying feeling of rolling.

The wagon was just crossing a large river along the border. When she opened her eyes, she saw that she was headed straight into the water. The current seems to be very strong that everything that falls on it is washed away.

“Hey, aaahhhhhh!”

Mia falls into the river while screaming.

“Damn it! Princess Mia, I’m coming!”

The last voiced that Mia heard was that of Sion’s jumping after her.

And so, the princess and prince of the two great powers disappeared into the strong torrents of the river.
