487 Chapter 470 Disciples

Near Teito.

Evacuation orders were issued to the surrounding villages, and Theodore and Arida were waiting in the middle of the plain.

The venue is ready.

All that's left is to go wild.

In the meantime, Arida was meditating quietly.

Normally, I wouldn't bother you.

But Theodore had to say.

"Arida... can you do me a favor?"

"... unusual."

Arida stops meditating and stands up.

Theodore glanced at the colour of the criticism in his eyes.

Because they can see what you're trying to say.

"Don't be so angry...."

"I'm not angry.I just thought it was careless. "

"I understand that... but I still want to beat Nigel with my hands.As a brother... I should watch my back.I thought it was like a real brother.I want to settle this alone. "

Arida sighed small at Theodore's offer.

And then...

"I understand the mood. You must be confident."

"Please...."

"If I fail, how will I be held responsible?"

"... if you fight me, Nigel won't be safe.You take care of it. "

"If that's the case, we can fight together.Your complacency will not increase the damage.You should understand that being here is luxurious. "

"... whenever... it's tough."

"This operation is to keep the Imperial Capital safe.Personal mood does not outweigh it.He's dangerous, so we'll take him out alone. "

Arida said that and declined Theodore's offer.

Theodore wasn't expecting much either.

Arida is faithful to her duties.

It knew Theodore well.

"I'm sorry... forget it"

"... I understand that you want to take care of your brother's mistreatment with your own hands.I wish I could.But we are the Knights of the Guards.All for the Empire and the royal family.This white cape bears the great credit of its predecessors.We can't contaminate it.This is no longer just about you. "

Arida had a strong pride as a Kintetsu Knight.

From a young age, I worked hard to become a Kintetsu Knight.

The emperor is a friend of his father's.

I thought I would serve that person more than I did in my childhood, and I was wanted to do so by people around me.

Therefore, Arida did nothing even when she was with her brother Laurenz.

Because I shouldn't have moved as a Kintetsu Knight.

"... I see. It's not just me anymore... Forgive me.I was arrogant... and I forgot I had a lot of help here. "

"That's right... we're not responsible.Your Majesty has placed us here for a victory.We are not allowed to report anything other than victory. "

It was originally a problem that could be solved only by the Kintetsu Knight.

The Emperor entrusted it to me.

However, considering the damage done to the Imperial Capital, we needed a designer.

It was Al that Arida came up with the idea of a designer.

The prince who framed and killed his brother.

It was explained that it had been replaced by Leo, but it was suspicious to include previous achievements.

I can't help prying now.

That's why Arida didn't say anything.

Coincidentally, Theodore was advised by Baron Yong that he should help Al.

And when I asked for it.

Arida didn't miss the look Al gave her for a moment.

The expression of abandonment that there is no choice.

It was the look I showed Erna, but Arida knew that Al's gaze had captured her before.

I undertook it because it was sweet to childhood habits.

That's not all.

The look on my face also made a mark on me.

"... the Knights of the Guards have brought His Highness into trouble.All we can do is produce results.Everything else is just a misunderstanding. "

Slowly Arida pulled the sword out of the sheath.

The bracelet with the Theodore on it is reacting.

Nigel is already metastasized.

For His Highness.

With a small whisper, Arida entered a state of emergency.

■ ■ ■

The destination of Nigel's transfer.

I was there with the woman I had seen for the first time and the brother I had seen for a long time.

Smart move.

So he threw up and Nigel put the God of Fire on top of him.

Then they both stood up for it.

"Arida von Vittoring, Commander of the Imperial Guard"

"Theodore Lyles, Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guard."

The moment they were named.

The air on the spot tingled in an instant.

My instincts as a swordsman told Nigel.

It's not sweet enough to win two-on-one.

Still, Nigel put his instincts into it.

There's no shortage for them.

Really?

I heard a voice from the side.

Nigel leaves it to his body to react.

He was then shallowly slashed in the flank.

If it had been a little later, I would have been deeply hurt.

Arida, who had been in front of her just now, was lying there when she realized.

Watching the speed, Nigel stretched the boundaries of fire around his body.

The fire boundary between attack and defense is poorly fuel-efficient and uses the flame of the God of Fire, reducing Attack.

Like before, if you start focusing on attacks, you'll have to disable them.

I still prioritized my defenses because I decided that Arida was dangerous.

"We have no shortage or justification.It's just an order, that's all. "

"That's the leader of the Knights of the Kintetsu... it'll entertain me."

"I'm not having fun.Nigel, the disciple of the late Count Ross Arc.By order of His Highness Arnold, I will crush you. "

After declaring so, Arida slowly started walking towards Nigel.
