Without answering to that question, Kazuki's gaze remained fixed on the Location Ring adorning his finger, its gentle pulsating still persisting.Raising his hand slowly, an air of anticipation filled the room, drawing the attention of Helena. Her eyes lingered on Kazuki's hand, a flicker of recognition crossing her face as she pieced together the significance of what she was witnessing."That... It's a Location Ring!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with a mixture of surprise and familiarity. Of course, she knew the ring well, for she was the one who had bestowed a pair of Location Rings upon her daughter. The rings were among the treasured possessions of the Agistria family, holding deep meaning and purpose."You're right, it is a Location Ring," Kazuki affirmed, his voice resonating with an almost reverent tone. "Livy once told me that this ring can not only pinpoint the whereabouts of individuals but also emit emergency signals when necessary."A sense of hope flickered in Helena'

"Is it really so effortless for them to betray me? Are they capable of acting against me without hesitation?"Livy couldn't comprehend it. She had earnestly planned to reunite them, even if their support had waned. She had been willing to accept that, to preserve their bond as friends.Unbeknownst to her, tears streamed down her cheeks, tracing a path of sorrow."Why has everything crumbled like this...?" she whispered, her voice raspy from the impact that had affected her throat.Her heart ached with a profound sense of betrayal. She had placed her trust in them, believing they would remain by her side despite her disadvantaged position as their friend.Sob~ Sob~ Sob~Livy reflected on it all, her tears mingling with the anguish pulsating within her wounded organs."How could I have been so naive to trust them... Such foolish faith..."And in that moment, the trust she had vested in her once-loyal subordinates shattered into countless shards, leaving her desire to ascend as Empress a

The knights, witnessing their comrade's defeat, gritted their teeth and swiftly shifted into another formation.Dashh!!Dashhh!!!Observing their movement, Kazuki assumed a serious fighting stance, distinct from before.Closed his eyes...Inhale...Exhale...Opened eyes...Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, Kazuki reopened his eyes with a newfound seriousness."God of War..." Kazuki muttered those words.Instantly, his body was enveloped in a faint red mist, exuding an oppressive aura. His previously normal-colored eyes now had dark red pupils, emanating a menacing presence.This time, he was truly serious, knowing that he couldn't prolong the battle due to the limited time available.Serious...Furthermore, it seemed that they were now infuriated and ready to fight him with their auras and abilities.Just from that, Kazuki could tell that the next battle might turn into a truly brutal confrontation."This fight won't be easy..."Perhaps because it was his first time killing h

In Kazuki's perspective, he is the type of man who would take anything that is deemed advantageous to him. Seeing that Livy can provide significant benefits, Kazuki chooses to pursue a relationship with her. The same applies to Shiori, where Kazuki decides to become her lover because he believes it will bring him advantages. However, it is important to note that both of these girls are not coerced by anyone else. They genuinely desire Kazuki. This is pure love that comes from the heart. Kazuki acknowledges that there are some drawbacks in these relationships, but the benefits he gains far outweigh them. Shiori is the daughter of a prominent businessman in Japan, and not many men would reject such an opportunity in any way. After all, who would foolishly turn her down? Only someone with mental issues or a very naive and foolish man would reject a beautiful and wealthy woman who sincerely expresses her feelings. However, at this moment, all those considerations are no longer relevant.

"Hmm...?" Kazuki turned to the side to see what was happening there. He turned... He saw a large group of guards running towards him. Kazuki effortlessly dealt with them, until he heard the words that had grown tiresome to him. "She is a fake Princess! Why is she here?! Capture the fake Princess!!" Upon hearing that, veins popped in his head. "Fake Princess, you say?" Kazuki muttered as he looked at the guards rushing towards him. Livy, noticing that Kazuki was getting slightly angry, tried to hold his hand and said, "They might have been brainwashed. Just leave them be. Besides, killing them would only trouble us and waste unnecessary time." "I see..." Since Kazuki was advised against killing them, he had another idea to deal with them. He grinned... ... Because he still had a few seconds before Velda completely transformed. Dashhh!! Kazuki shot towards them at a tremendous speed, arriving in front of the guards. Stopped-!! The guards, startled by the man's sudden appear
