Book 1: Chapter 6: Part 2
Heres todays chapter. Im sorry, there will be only one chapter this week.
Ill try to bring more on the next week, enjoy~
After the physical education class, Kaede and the other girls went to the changing room to change their clothes. Also, the girls from the next class had already begun to change their clothes there. There is Kaori in it, too, and Kaede, who acquainted with her, called out to her while changing clothes.
Ah, Kaori-san! Could it be that your class after this is P.E class?
Yeah, how was that?
Kaedes eyes shined at the words.
Listen, listen. The transfer student, Yuuya-kun, is amazing, you know!
Eh? Yuuya-san?
Yes, yes! Todays boys class was football, but the ball that Akira kicked flew towards us who were watching. More precisely, the ball happened flew towards me! I thought, ah, it will hit me! But, Yuuya-kun kicked the ball back with an amazing movement. Moreover, the ball went straight to the goal! Wasnt it amazing!?
A-amazing movement, you said?
The confused Kaori asked Kaede, who spoke with excitement. Then, Yukine, who dressed next to Kaede, spoke up while taking off her P.E uniform.
Hmm. As Kaede said. Its like in a manga or an anime It was like a movement in such a world.
Right!? It was really amazing!
Is that so?
It was cool, you know!
Yup, yup. I mean Dont you feel that hes like a Prince?
Oh, I know that. I feel like that kind of atmosphere from Yuuya-kun, too.
Following Kaede and Yukine, other girls began to talk about Yuuya. By looking at the situation, Kaori knew that Yuuya was accustomed to the class and was relieved. And then, Kaede blurted something out of the blue.
I wonder if Yuuya-kun has a girlfriend.
Eh!? Y-Yuuya-san, has a girlfriend?
Ah, no! I also dont know the truth, you know? Its just that hes so cool.
Ah y-youre right.
Kaori, who was surprised hearing Kaedes words, was relieved by the words that followed after, but this time she tilted her head in puzzlement as to why she was relieved after knowing that.
Ah, if I dont hurry, the class will start!
Really!? Sorry to keep you here.
No, dont worry about it.
Do your best in physical education!

After looking at the clock, Kaede and the others realized that it had been quite a while, rushed to change their clothes, and immediately jumped out of the changing room.
What is this feeling? Kaori murmured after Kaede and the others came out of the room. She was just confused by the emotions she had never experienced before.
Lexia-sama has returned safely.
What?
It was at the royal capital Montres located in the center of Alceria Kingdom. A man had received a report in a room at the royal castle located in that royal capital.
In other words, you have failed?
Thats what its all about.
Tell me more about what happened.
Yes it went well until we separated Lexia-sama from the knights who escorted her, but the place where she ran to wasthe Great Devils Nest.
What?
The man frowned at the words of the person wearing the hood.
Great Devils Nest Why did she go into that land?
It seems Lexia-sama herself didnt know that she went to the Great Devils Nest, and the people who were on the task were also chasing her too far, and as a result theyre all dead.
Fool The monsters of that land are unusually strong. That Wait, you mean Lexia survived?
Yes It seems that the escort knights who survived from the attacks of my brethren protected Lexia-sama.
I dont understand. They all set their feet in the Great Devils Nest, but why was only Lexia is safe and my assassins were killed? Did a monster attack them? Or did the knights chase them in time and kill the assassins?
My apologies, the information I got is only up to there
Sigh Useless.
The person wearing the hood told that apologetically. The man looked down on him and closed his eyes, but he immediately opened it up and turned a sharp glance at the hooded figure who was lowered his head in front of him.
Could it be Did they tell about my identity?
I cant say for sure, but I dont think theres any concern about that.
The man then sat on a luxurious chair and poured the glass of liquor that he had on his hand into his mouth. And then, threw the glass to the person wearing the hood in front of him.
You cant say, you said? Dont spit out anything silly. Who you think picked you bastards up and raised you, filthy orphans?
It was Your Highness.
Then dont ever open your mouth about my information even if you dieSigh. Considering that theres no soldier coming here, it seems that they still do not know about this.
As the man says, the identities of the people that attacked Lexia werent confirmed yet. It was also because the goblin general had disfigured them to the point that they cannot be recognized anymore, but above all, they did not divulge a single word of information about the man, who was their lord, to Lexia.
But theres no doubt that this will make them more vigilant. Lexias own strength is known, but the knights who follow her are also troublesome. Do you understand?
Yes.
This failure is bigger than you think. If my mistake is known, it will shake my position
The person wearing the hood can only be silent, hearing the mans words.
Next. If you screw up your next mission You wont be of use anymore.
Ill keep that in mind
Good then, you can leave now.
Ha!
Then, the person wearing the hood disappeared from the place as if melting in the darkness. The man leans his back on the chair, then muttering something with a disputing mind.
Dirty blood Your presence in the royal family is a hindrance to me Ill definitely kill you next time.
The muttering had swallowed up in the darkness.
The location has changed, and Lexia is resting in her own bed in the royal castle of Alceria Kingdom. On Lexias side, a middle-aged knight Owen, asked her with a worried expression.
Excuse me, Lexia-sama. How is your condition?
Yeah, Im fine.
After a mysterious group attacked Lexia, she returned safely to the royal capital and has reported the matter about the incident. Still, the King couldnt make a big move because there was not much information about the mysterious group.
Are you really sure?
Yes. I dont want my father to worry about it anymore. Im safe like this, so thats enough.
Owen realizes that there is no use to asking about her condition for more than this and decided to asked Lexia for another matter.
Lexia-sama. Could you tell me what had happened in that Great Devils Nest?
I already said it when I woke up, didnt I? I have no idea about who that group was or who sent them. And, it was the Goblin General who killed them all
Thats strange. When we rushed there, we didnt see the Goblin General. And considering the situation, its hard to believe that only Lexia-sama was being overlooked
Even if you say so
While saying that Lexia remembered something, the appearance of a certain young man crossed her mind even though its also a bit vague because of the shock and the fatigue that she received after attacked by the Goblin General.
Come to think of it! I was saved by a man!
A man? said Owen with a wondered expression on his face.
Yes, he was about the same age as me.
As Lexia-sama!? He beat the Goblin General at an age that seemed to have just come of age
Owen was deeply surprised by Lexias words. Even for Owen, he could barely subdue a Goblin Elite alone, and it wasnt very unthinkable to defeat the Goblin General that is above it in terms of rank and power. Moreover, Owen is a talented person so that his name is not only known in this Alceria kingdom but also other countries.
Unlike in Japan, in this country, ones could be recognized as an adult at the age of fifteen, and it is hard to believe that a young man of that age has a much higher ability than Owen.
However, Lexia herself was aware of how far her words were from common sense, so she immediately tried to deny it.
B-but, it could be what I saw was only a mistake or illusion due to my despair, yeah, maybe that.
No, thats not true.
Eh?
Lexia, who never thought she would also be denied, let out her voice involuntarily.
Actually, when we perceived Lexia-samas presence, there was another presence near you. However, that presence was disappeared cleanly for some reason, so I thought that I misunderstood it.
W-well then, that man is real
Yes, I dont know who it is, but he certainly existed. So, how does he look?
Well, let me see A beautiful black hair and black eyes. I kind of feel like he was like a foreign aristocrat.
Black hair and black eyes, huh? Its certainly rare in this Alceria Kingdom Moreover, if hes a foreign noble, it might be a little troublesome.
Troublesome?
No, we cant find anything, for now, lets stop speculating things. Its not clear why that young man erased his presence, but I think theres no such thing as hostility or harm from him, and I think thus far, theres no need to be very vigilant about him.
Owen couldnt welcome more people targeting Lexia. However, considering that he didnt kill Lexia under those circumstances, he thought it would be too early to conclude that he was an adversary, so he decided internally to take the same precautions as the other nobles.
Not knowing about the decision Owen had made, Lexia looked out the window and sighed.
I wonder who he was If I could see him again
Lexia breathe out a small sigh again.
He saved me, and I must thank him immediately!
Wha-?
Owen raised such a voice at Lexias words and had a bad feeling at the same time.
And yes, that feeling was right.
Ive decided. Lets go to the Great Devils Nest once again! We may be able to meet that person again!
L-Lexia-sama!? Thats dangerous! And you also just got attacked by assassins
Its fine. Were going to Great Devils Nest, right? So, no one will come after me.
The problem is with that Great Devils Nest itself. Youve just experienced it yourself, right? Thats very dangerous!
Yes. But if you come with me, Ill be fine, right?
Even if Im with you, the Great Devils Nest is still a very dangerous place. First of all, what are you going to say to His Majesty!?
Owen is undoubtedly strong, but the story changes when it comes to whether his strength is acceptable in the Great Devils Nest. He might be able to deal with it if a Goblin Elite attacked them, but if it were a Goblin General, that would be impossible. Before that, he didnt think that the King would send out his beloved daughter, who was just attacked.
Its okay. Ill convince father. And it is not good for the royal family to not express their gratitude after being saved I want to meet him in person and say my gratitude!
B-but!
Ive already decided. Ive already decided to do so, and Ill go to my father right away!
P-please wait, Lexia-sama!
In the end, Owen couldnt stop Lexia, and Lexia went to talk directly to her father, the King.
