Chapter 184 - Volume 9 (2/2)

The carriage door was knocked and a voice that sounded like Sarah came from outside.

“Yes, it’s okay. What happened?”

As I replied, the door opened and a slightly nervous-looking Sarah peeked into the carriage, looking around with only her upper body inside.

I explained that Geass and Onzada who have turned into doll-like golems was something I found somewhere.

“There were still new rut marks. It’s most likely only two carriages. I hope these are the soldiers of the Thule territory but…”

“Is it more likely to be rebels?”

“Yes, presumably.”

Sending those two out on a scouting mission has actually backfired. I would have liked to call them back immediately, but, although we have a soul connection, the only way I can contact them in detail is with Geass that has an email function.

“Gau?”

That Geass tilts his head adorably in my lap. But before I could react, one of the escort knights came and suddenly made a report.

“Princess! I could see light and dust in the distance. We think they’re in the middle of a battle.”

“Princess, please take a step back. I’m worried because Nia is not here.”

“Yes…”

That’s the right thing to do as an escorting knight, but really if it were just me, I’d just take a shot from here and see what happens.

“You two, go.”

“Eh?”

The girl who came to report with Sarah made a startled sound for a moment, but the “you two” is not referring to the two girls.

“Gau”

“(Kokun)”

Immediately understanding, Geass and Onzada responded cutely and stood up. They then speedily jumped out of the open carriage entrance.

“P- Princess? Are you sure? Isn’t that a precious golem…”

“It’s okay, it’s for combat”

“It was made for combat!?”

You wouldn’t even guess that thing was actually an advanced demon…

I was a little worried.

If there’s going to be a battle, I want to go out and help because one of the parties involved is on my side. The safety of Sarah and the others is more important to me than a stranger soldier however, so I was willing to step back.

But the report said they could even see lights flashing from the battle.

I don’t think that swords and armor could give off such lights. Perhaps if it was the light produced by magic, but there’s only a limited number of people in this country who could use the light attribute in combat.

“Sarah, go after those two now. I will intervene in the fight.”

“Ye- Yes!”

Since I didn’t want to waste time arguing, I commanded Sarah with just a little bit of intimidation. Sarah immediately jumped out of the way, stretching her back as she was jumping off. …Why are you even blushing?

“The Holy Guardian Light…Brilliant Holy Shield”

As I poured the highest level of defensive blessings from inside the carriage on not only Sarah and the others but also on the horses, I heard a startled cry from outside. The carriage suddenly started rushing while I was still standing up, tumbling me over.

After darting the carriage for a few minutes, I could hear the sounds of battle outside penetrating inside.

I leaned out of the carriage and saw what appeared to be a rebel-looking soldier shouting something at us as he ran towards us and tried to stab his spear into the carriage.

“No problem. ‘Push through’”

The level of an ordinary soldier’s spear is obviously not enough to even make a dent on my [Brilliant Holy Shield]. After urging the horse with [Divine Spiritual Language], the stallion left the soldiers in a hit-and-run attack with the momentum of the carriage.

The soldier was left laying on the ground.

..…He is not an ally, right?

The battle was almost settled due to our intervention.

But instead of soldiers-against-soldiers battle, what we saw was only one person fighting with the whole group of rebels. The warrior-like person in the cloak turned his sword in the direction of Geass and Onzada as if he was extremely wary of the intruders.

……..Well, they are indeed suspicious.

“The person over there, sheathe your sword!”

As I jumped down from the carriage and called out to that person, Geass and the others turned back to me. When the warrior-like person saw me, he lowered his sword and shouted in surprise.

“Rushia…!?”

Ah…is that someone I know?
