It is complete chaos when Rovira and her companions arrive in the base camps. Just like what she was thinking earlier, the demonic creatures are now attacking them. Rovira quickly scans the area and sees their number this time has increased a lot. Some of the tents are now burning. The tables and chairs that were used for their gathering are overturned and there are even things that belong to the ladies scattered around. The nobles are also screaming and running everywhere to save their own lives while the guards and a few knights left in the base camp earlier are fighting the monsters attacking them."B-But how?! Father and I inspect the forest a lot of times before we held this event!" Young Marquis Anton exclaimed. Knowing that a lot of people and some well-known figures are going to participate in this event, Marquis Lapil and his son are inspecting the forest almost every day just to make sure there are no creatures that can harm them. Even the animals they released in the fore
Rovira is actually weighing her choices. In case she loses her patience, the female General will not hesitate to cut Roselyn's arms that are wrapping her leg tightly. Unfortunately, a lot of people are present today and this is not a battlefield. Her adopted sister is still lucky since Rovira will not do anything today that can ruin the Nocturnus Knights' reputation."Stand up." Rovira ordered Roselyn."W-What?" Roselyn replied in a stuttering voice.Losing her patience, the female General pulls Roselyn into her hand so she will be forced to stand up. The way she handles her adopted sister is too rough. Roselyn whines about it but Rovira ignores it. "Can you be gentle—Ahh!"Roselyn was surprised when a demonic creature suddenly appears in front of them. Without hesitation, Rovira hits the monster with her bow, and its blood splatters on the dusty ground. After that, she continues walking while pulling Roselyn with her. "Hey! I said be gentle! You're so barbaric—""One more complaint
While Rovira is resting, she hears a soft rustle behind the bush followed by several footsteps. Rovira instantly becomes aware of her surroundings and looks around with her sharp eyes. She also picks a few stones that can be used as a weapon or distraction in case an enemy is watching her nearby. "Show yourself. Or else."Rovira patiently waits for that person to show up. Soon, she raises a brow seeing a familiar person. It was Annie and she is still disguised as Charlotte White. When her maid sees her, Annie let out a relieved sigh before she slowly approached her."I'm glad that you're alright, my lady." Annie said."What are you doing?" Rovira asked. "You are supposed to be in the base camp with the others.""That is the original plan. But someone dragged me and brought me into the forest.""Oh?"Annie starts explaining what happened in the base camp before the demonic monsters attacked it. While she was resting while pretending to be Charlotte White, two skilled mercenaries sneak
When Charlotte and Sir Gabriel arrive at the base camp, she quickly sees the Crown Prince instructing and guiding the people on what to do next. She stands there for a while and admires Prince Marius for a moment. Although the prince is older than her, Charlotte cannot help but act like a proud older sister who is witnessing the growth of her little brother.It is not wrong to say that she witnessed Prince Marius's growth from a weak little boy to a reliable member of the Royal Family. After the things that happened to his family, the Crown Prince realized that he has to be strong if he wants to protect the people he cares about. So although his life will be in constant danger because of his position as the next Emperor of their kingdom, Prince Marius did not let anything and anyone become a hindrance to his growth."Lady Charlotte, is Prince Marius also aware of... You know..." Sir Gabriel whispered next to her."Why do you think I let Annie disguise as General Commander Rovira and i
Inside the carriage, Count Byron recalls what happened earlier before he found Charlotte again. At that time, the Count was still with Marquis Lapil in the forest and busy hunting a lot of animals. When they heard the bell ringing, the first person he thought of was Charlotte. He knows this is her first hunting event and the bell might probably scare her. So without any words to his companion, Count Byron returned to the base camp as soon as possible.To his surprise, the base camp became a mess. A group of demonic creatures suddenly appeared and they were attacking everyone their eyes laid on. Ignoring the danger, Count White started looking for his family. He noticed that the nobles were being gathered by knights in a safer place so the Count decided to go there first.That's when he noticed the sudden appearance of the famous female General Commander of the Nocturnus Knights. She made a whistling sound that caught the attention of monsters nearby. Without any hesitation, General Co
"You're finally here. I thought you will not appear again tonight.""Stop exaggerating, Your Highness.""I'm not exaggerating. You ditched me twice.""And I might ditch you again tonight if you don't stop talking nonsense.""Fine, fine. I'll stop.""That's good.""Hmm? But why did you bring him tonight?"Charlotte, who visits the Royal Palace at night, turns her head and looks at Sir Gabriel who looks stupid closing and opening his mouth like a dying fish behind her. He's obviously surprised to see Charlotte speaks rudely to their Crown Prince. But she's not bothered by it since he cannot speak about the things he will witness here tonight because of his oath."Don't worry about him." Charlotte said as she sits on the sofa.Prince Marius shrugs his shoulders before sitting on his desk and rings the bell to call Butler Dennie inside. He asked the female butler to prepare them something to drink as they discussed the things that happened in the hunting event earlier. After that, the Cro
"It's alright, Charlotte. I think Andrea hurt herself after she fell just now. So don't kill that puppy yet."Sir Gabriel quickly nods his head. He is not the one who hurt the princess. In fact, didn't he save her from getting hurt more? But the Vice General didn't say it and gives his General Commander an innocent look.Soon, Charlotte White slowly turns her gaze away from Sir Gabriel and gives her focuses on the princess. She has a small pout on her lips while her glassy eyes are looking at her injured finger. The female General quickly asked Butler Dennie to bring her a medicine box. "Hurts..." Princess Andrea replied."I know. Come on, princess. We should treat your wound, okay?" Charlotte softly said."Hmm."The female General guides the princess to sit on the sofa. Soon, Butler Dennie arrives and gives the medicine box to Charlotte. The butler offers her assistance but it was the princess who rejected it by shaking her head. "Hurts...""Don't worry. We can easily treat this wo
Four days had already passed since the incident and there are two major things that happened in their empire. First, The Royal Palace released an official statement saying the incident that happened in the forest happened because someone released the demonic monsters that the perpetrators bought from the black market. Although they haven't caught the suspects, the pieces of evidence of their crimes were already gathered by the knights.When the people heard it, anger rose in their hearts, especially those people who were involved in that incident. There are a few casualties that day. Some of them received injuries while others are still in trauma. But the good news is, no one died because Prince Marius is quick to make decisions and provided everything they will need after the knights exterminated the demonic creatures.Since the Crown Prince is involved in the incident, most of the nobles pinned the blame on the faction which doesn't want Prince Marius to become the next emperor. If
