The soldiers stationed at the gate sie to pass when they saw the crest that adorned it

The black carriage raced across the stone pavement of the first district’s residential area

The ate was rather heavy as only the jostling of the carriage and the hoof beats could be heard

Suddenly the horses started neighing and the carriage calass to lost his balance and fall over

“What was that?!”

Instead of a reply, the sounds of the guards charging at so and the start of an intense battle was heard outside

“Setorion! What’s happening?!”

Douglass peered out theand looked out at the dark streets, but could onlysilhouette

“Please cal to worry about

Setorion unsheathed his decorative sword that hung at his waist and stabbed prince Douglass in the chest as he said that

As he looked down at the silver sword inside his chest and back to Setorion, the prince’s eyes were full of confusion

“……Y-You……?”

His words were cut short as his head drooped and blood started to spill from his mouth

As if waiting for that e door opened and one person entered

Setorion quickly pulled his sword out of Douglass’s chest and sheathed it before kneeling in front of the person that entered

“Things seeh there was some trouble”

The person who had entered was tall, had light brown hair and handso a thin s Setorion

“Your praise is wasted on me”

The prince sied his shoulder as he said that

“I understand that my trip to Hoban will be delayed due to the e……”

“Well, at least that obscene bishop’s group was successful ……Princess Juliana’s lass here is settled ill announce her passing to the public”

Prince Sect let out a sigh before looking at the loyal retainer kneeling before hi in a low tone

“Afterward, it’s Marudoira…… Such a shame to haveto undermine the hard work of one’s own parents”

“Father is already an old man Is it not one’s filial duty to take over for the parent once their time has passed…”

Setorion nodded at Sect’s words before cal his reply

“Is that so──, I take it that the necessary preparations are complete?”

“Yes”

When the two’s eyes caught one another, Prince Sect prompted Setorion with a nod, who proceeded to draw his sword yet again

“Should I refrain fro it too deep? That said, it would be difficult for me to not hold back”

Accepting the difficult order fro his sword into the prince’s left arm in one stroke

“Gaaah!”

Once Setorion confirmed his handiwork he quickly sheathed his sword and offered it to the prince

“Your highness, please report to the te as this affair is settled”

Sect received the sword and nodded as sweat streamed down his face

Setorion quickly stepped off the carriage and instructed the driver to head towards the nearest temple

Soon the sound of a whip cracked in the dark of the night as the black carriage ran towards the temple at full speed

For a e before glancing at his subordinate knights, then at the sky in the direction of their destination

“To the Etsuato company, quickly”

Setorion’s low voice increased the knight’s tension
