“If I had a choice, I wouldn’t have coood memory here”
Reyne, the leader and representative of Auland’s reinforce the at party
“Your Highness Reyne is truly honest and direct Although past events h, today is a joyful day Let’s leave that topic for another ti past reater good As expected of the pride of the Northlands, the Princess Knight!”
Darsos , helping ease the aard atmosphere as everyone else hurried to follow his lead and clap as well
Indeed, it was iersi First, when she was in a dire situation, she was forced to sign a subordinate country contract… and then ale If she was the fes, it probably would count as the type where she had both personal and national grudges Next up would be a love and hate relationshi+p for the rest of her life… Fine, that style of story evidently didn’t fit this situation, so let’s not go too far down a tangent At the very least, it was quite likely that Reyne held soes
Her arrival, however, was indeed explainable After all, the Auland Eroup to assist the Northlands in the war against the Beasthts weren’t of any actual help in the end, not a single one of their White Wolf Knights retreated in front of Poison God Felix, standing firht for humanity in front of insurmountable odds We owed them at least this est trade partner and financial supporter I had signed all sorts of contracts with Hemet back at Diffindor At the very least, Auland and the Northlands were still allies—they even appeared to be solid allies with an excellent relationshi+p
There were only a few places in Eich with ongoing large-scale battles Reyne wanted to level up her troops by giving the Justice Points She basically had two choices: the battle against the undead, and this battle here against the Sea Tribe
As for the Northlands knights, for both the Aurora Knights who controlled ice as well as the Four Eleic swords, they wouldn’t have a large advantage over the hordes of undead But with her aerial fleet and Aurora Knights, they wouldn’t fear an aquatic battle This hy Reyne chose to come here
It wasn’t only because it would be an easier battlefield to level up her troops There were also political considerations The Northlands needed to i in a corner of the continent would be too passive In a way, since Reyne had several excellent teachers and wasn’t duin with, she was far more mature than Roland had anticipated, especially after she rediscovered her confidence
Just Reyne’s arrival together with her aerial fleet increased all Auland citizens’ morale This was because aerial battleshi+ps were incredibly rare in Eich, and only we possessed the the crowds below cheering for her If she looked at the real origin of the Borealis, it was stolen froinal owner didn’t even know, she would just let things be
The Big Dipper squadron for the Borealis was still under construction, so only the Mizer caether with the Borealis Reyne’s aerial fleet consisted of one a-aerial battleshi+p Borealis, one heavy-class aerial battleshi+p Mizer, along with around twenty sether with her were about a hundred Aurora Knights and slightly over two hundred Four Eleht all her nificantly contributing to this battle
Of course, she also brought along Olive’s engineers and alche her own people would be too ht on slightly over twelve hundred adventurers Since space was limited on the airshi+ps, the adventurers had to be selected, with preference given to Contract Heroes and the strongest About seven hundred were Contract Heroes, while the other five hundred were either those sitting on the fence about the Contract Heroes systeed to obtain a Hero’s Armlet to become a Contract Hero in the first batch we recruited
Of course, it was only natural that Reyne tried to recruit so her personal warriors on the way
It wasn’t easy for Darsos, either The Northlands princess didn’t even try to hide her grudge against him—she was polite to everyone else but icy cold to the extreh Darsos continued to smile politely out of his pride as an emperor, as if her attitude didn’t rieved inside
The reason? Actually, he could have tolerated it if it wasto deal with Reyne’s attitude After all, she was here to assist hiht was her fa Reyne, whose face was almost identical to Roland’s, constantly walk around in front of him caused Darsos to recall his dark history that he did his very best to bury: falling in love with a “etthis memory made him want to clutch his head and cry
And the most pitiful part was that every time he saw Reyne’s face, Darsos discovered that he actually mysteriously felt like he missed Roland, which made him want to cry even more Every time he saw Reyne, he would mysteriously feel his heart skip a beat This identical face always caused hi his heart ache even ain, with lots of salt being spread on top of this old injury
“…Aay?”
The pitiful Emperor Darsos had never before doubted his sexual orientation Feeling helpless, he could only go to his most beloved Empress Rosemary for consolation When faced with Darsos’ lack of self-confidence, Rosemary appeared calm on the surface but secretly wanted to snicker, as “she” thought about her true identity Still, she consoled hi sex Then, she told him:
“No need to think that irl If your heart is ht”
Alright then, her consoling was quite effective At the very least, Darsos felt greatly relieved after hearing this
“She’s still unmarried, isn’t she?”
For an e desires, of course he would act to obtain anything he wished for Themoved was only natural, he even wanted to make a move on Reyne But his hopes had been dashed on the very saht of Reyne’s arrival
His secret spies told hiht two beautiful female adventurers into her own room for “sexual escapades” This caused Darsos to becoain
“So she actually likes women? Am I the one who’s not nor a prank on et close to Reyne and investigate, but the result was that Reyne was, indeed, a woreater impact [1] 1
