The Strongest Dull Prince's Secret Battle for the Throne

"Protect the fleeing people! Don't let them go!"

Leo instructed him with all his voice. Leos heading to Bassau immediately noticed a giant black sphere floating over Bassau. Seeing the anomaly of the black sphere, Leo immediately began preparing for combat and gave a purple smoke that signaled an emergency. Leo perceived that such a black sphere was heterogeneous, and anything that was intuitive was bad. It was beyond Leo's understanding that I had never seen, and at the same time, what happened was also beyond Leo's understanding. The only salvation would have been to correct the restraint of the Guard Knight, who advised that it was too premature, and raised the purple smoke.

"That!"

Leo swings his sword while riding. At the end of the cut was a monster with only bones. It is a lower class monster called a skeleton. It is a special monster belonging to the undead type, and it is a monster that rarely occurs normally. He crushed his weakness, the chest, and Leo defeated him, but it was stone and water. A skeleton was springing out of Bassau as if the water were overflowing from the glass. The number is just visible, and hundreds are useless. The people of Bassau fled from such a skeleton corps.

"His Highness Leonard! Please go down!"

Saying that, the Guard Knight instantly cuts off the skeleton around Leo. However, no matter how much you cut, the skeleton will spring up.

"There is no drill! Let's retreat once!" "No, stop here."

Tr a ns l a t ed b y jpmtl .c oｍ The knight screams at Leo's judgment. Leo and his guard, the Knights of the Guards, are here. The rest is Lynfia, and Abel and his party members. Whether it reaches twenty in total. Stopping hundreds of skeletons was impossible at all.

"If you retreat here, the fleeing people will be turned away. Don't retreat. Keep the front at this spot." "If so, please drop your Highness!" "I won't go down. What else to say?"

Leo asks while cutting the skeleton. It's easy to retreat. But doing so puts the people you want to protect at risk. I cannot endanger the people with my prettiness. Leo is not emperor now. He may have considered retreating if he was important to the Empire. However, Leo is now an Imperial candidate. The weight of his life is not as heavy as the emperor.

"I came to the south through me. I am here in the hope of helping those who are suffering. It remains the same. How about you? That day when I offered my sword as a guard knight. Are you still in your heart?

The Knight guarding the evacuation of the squad of skeletons keeps silent. The guard knight swears in front of the emperor as the emperor's sword. I swear by my sword and my pride.

"I vowed to devote myself to the Empire and the people. That vow will not disappear from my heart." "Okay, fight now. The time you earn here will surely be meaningful." "

So no one was urging Leo to withdraw anymore. It's not that Leo just left it up to emotion. The overflowing skeletons aren't behaving randomly. They are gathering at nearby enemies. In other words, the Leos attract the skeleton. If you retreat here, the skeleton that lost its closest goal could be scattered throughout the south. Then the southern lords are forced to defend their territory on their own, and it takes time to defeat the skeleton. Given the empire, he decided that it would be best to stay here and use it as a decoy.

Tr an sla t ed by Jpｍt l .co ｍ "His Highness Leonard. Please consult us." "Well, Lynfia. Won't you tell him to withdraw?" "I have a hometown village behind me. I'm sorry. "As expected. I understand well."

Leo smiles at Lynfia's conclusion. In the suspicion of southern nobles' misbehavior, the first to suffer if a skeleton falls in the south is the village of migrants. Perhaps a few lords want to defend, and even fewer have the power to survive.

"So what kind of consultation?" "Let's call for reinforcements."

While talking, Lynfia sweeps away the skeletons around Leo. I wanted time to talk well because it was a little bit.

"Reinforcement? From where?" "From the southern area. I'll send a messenger to the nearest city." "Are you in a hurry to the lord?" I won't betray you if you pay her, and she'll work her way. Like the Abels. "" Yeah! It's a plenty of rewards so don't flee! I want to flee soon! "

Abel, who was fighting nearby, cuts the skeleton while saying such a thing. Abel's party members complain about Abel.

"Because the leader is caught in the reward ..." "I'm blamed on me! Did everyone talk ?!" "Hey, hey !? Let's not come here and take responsibility !? We're a party !?"

The Abel parties follow each other at the right moments, with such a pleasant conversation. Adventurers are professional in monster warfare. Certainly, if an adventurer comes as reinforcements, it will be a powerful helper. However.

"If you're an adventurer in a small branch in the south alone, it's rock and water." "I know that, so I'll send a request to the entire guild." "What's up?" "Order a raid quest."

Raid Quest. Leo searches a little memory for words he can't hear. Because it was a word I had heard. The bottom of memory. It should have come out in a story I asked my mother when I was young.

"It's a large quest that many adventurers can participate in?" "Yes. It's rarely done recently, but it's great this time." "Why is it rarely done?" Because it costs money. "

Leo agrees with Lynfia's answer. It's better to throw one high-ranked adventurer than a lot of low-ranked adventurers. The best example is the SS class adventurer. It is much cheaper to ask an SS-class adventurer than to ask for a raid quest. A raid quest costs so much money.

"Is there any funding? I don't have that much?" "Her Highness Arnold gave me a lot of money. Let's use it." "I don't use any of them, but give me pong and a lot of money to others." "It's like Arnold's.

Lynfia smiles and hands Leo a bag from Al. Leo, who thought Lynfia was going to go, tilts her head.

"I guess it's easier for you to go?" "I can't say that there is no possibility of betrayal. It's safer to go to a guard knight."

Leo frowns at Lynfia's words. Leo had already trusted Lynfia. I thought I couldn't betray or be timid. But that's Leo's personal trust. In this important situation, we can't afford to give some adventurers a big deal. This was Lynfia's proposal, considering Leo's position. T r a nsl at ed b y jp m tl .ｃo m

"I will fight next to His Imperial Highness Leonard. I promised His Imperial Highness that he will always help you." "I'm already strong enough to help you. Anyone who is proud to never escape! "

Leo then asks the Guard Knight. However, the guard knight does not nod when seeking the messenger. It's like running away from the enemy. Even more so in the situation where Leo, the royal family to be protected, is fighting. But Leo added that he had the pride of running. If you do not give yourself a name here, you will not be confident. All guard knights give themselves a name. Leo gives the bag to the knight who is the best at handling horses and gives instructions.

"Go to the nearest city and ask the adventurer's guild for a raid quest! The adventurer's guild can be contacted throughout the continent! Don't forget to tell the Imperial City about the details!" We'll be back to you! Good luck! "

Saying so, the knight starts running. Leo sees it off and Leos turns his eyes to the city of Bassau. The black spheres add to the evil atmosphere, and the skeletons do not lose count. It's like the entrance to hell. Leo simply started swinging his sword with such an impression.
