60.Sword Angel
A few days have passed since a sudden disaster struck the capital.
The disaster that occurred in the capital, which was considered safe by everyone, caused numerous casualties and destroyed numerous facilities, but some people did not give in and tried to return to their daily lives.
Cityscapes in the capital slowly begin to come alive with sadness in their hearts.
In the backyard of a fairly luxurious inn, there was a figure constantly striking a sword.
“Yoo Eun-ah! Today is the day of the awards ceremony! Are you still doing that?”
Hana Kang, an archer with long straight black hair tied in a ponytail, looked at Baek Yoo-eun, who had been wielding only her sword and said with concern, that she had folded her arms and had been locked away at the training ground for several days.
“Ah..I was going to stop now..”
As she wiped away the dripping sweat, the memory of that day suddenly came to her mind and she clenched her fists tightly.
People dying in vain in front of Yoo Eun’s eyes.
The desperate words of those who were attacked by monsters without being able to evacuate.
He protects a precious person in his arms and even gets attacked by a monster instead..
The sight of Abi Gyu-hwan brought out her memories from deep inside Yu-eun’s heart.
The fishy smell of her blood, her parents lying on the floor, and the monster looking at her with her glistening eyes…
She managed to shake off her terrible memories and wielded her sword as best she could, but her power was still too weak to save even those who lost her life before her eyes.
‘If it were Master…’
The image of Yoohyeon waving in a spotless white uniform came to mind.
-Look closely.

Obviously, if Yoohyeon had been in his place, no one would have been hurt.
A arrogantly absolute sword that puts one’s will into the sword and promises to do anything.
The moment I was about to feel a sense of shame, feeling that I had not been able to follow the toes of my master.
Slap!
“Yoo Eun-ah! Wake up! You’re doing this again!”
“Oh…”
Hana, approaching Yueun before she knew it, patted her on the shoulder and scolded her.
“How long are you going to sell the land like that? You’ve already done your best!”
“I’m sorry… Just…”
“I know you’re depressed because of the people who died, but on the other hand, think about the people you saved! That’s why you’re getting an award today.”
“…Thank you.”
Certainly, as one said, it is still a weak power, but the life she saved has begun to spread throughout the capital to the extent that it becomes a story.
-An angel with black wings swung a sword and saved the citizens.
-Birth of ‘Sword Angel’
Rumors like this spread all over the capital, and Yu-eun caught the eye of the imperial family, who was resolving the post-war situation, and she received a commendation today.
“Let’s wash up now! Wouldn’t it be better to leave at least an hour ago?”
“Yes, I will.”
Even as Yoo Eun was preparing to receive her commendation, a question lingered in her mind.
‘At that time, that sword…Is the master right…?’
The red sword she witnessed with her own eyes at the last moment of disaster.
-Kill
It was too strange to say that the swordsman’s swordsmanship was her master’s.
‘If I go to the imperial palace this time… I might be able to see Master…’
She always wanted to meet her, but with her anticipation of finally seeing Yoo-hyeon and anxiety at her questionable swordsman, Yoo-eun was ready to go out.
“Let’s go! We have to go first to get a seat!”
“That’s right, Ms. Yueun. Be confident and do well like today’s main character.”
“Congratulations.”
When she came out of the building where she was staying, she was greeted by Kang Ha-na, Eden, and Jake, the party members of Eun-eun Yoo, whom she hadn’t seen in a few days, except for her Hana, who lived with her.
Casting-Casting-
Flora, who was rubbing Yueun’s shoulder before she knew it, glared at her eyes and said, her usual benevolent expression gone.
“Mr. Yueun~ I hope you like it..?”
“N.. Yes?”
“I hope you like it~”
“What.. What..?”
When Yueun was taken aback, Flora replied by twisting her blonde hair with her fingers.
“That’s right~ If you see an enemy, you won’t listen even if I try to stop you, and you’ll run out~ and you’ll come to me half-dead~ If anyone sees me, they’ll think I’m just a potion~?”
From noble mtl dot com
“…I’m sorry…”
When Yoo-eun, who had nothing to say even if she had a hundred mouths to say at Flora’s words, apologized, Flora, who was looking at her with her arms crossed, said with a stern expression.
“Next time, I won’t be able to heal you, okay?”
“Yes..”
“Wouldn’t that be?”
“Yes..”
“Then promise!”
Flora stretched out her little finger vigorously, and Yoo-eun, hesitant, faced her and hooked her finger.
“Okay! Then I got an appointment, so that’s it! Now go quickly! There should be a table available at least an hour in advance!”
Today was the first official event and festival to be held in the capital since that incident, and it was certain that a huge crowd would gather in the plaza.
“Well, that would be fine. The branch manager said that one of our party, Ms. Yoo Eun, had reserved a spot for us as she was supposed to receive the award. Still, Ms. Yoo will have something to prepare, so go first. There won’t be anything bad.”
“Oh, that’s a relief~”
At Eden’s words, Flora nodded her head, and Hana Kang jumped on top of her.
“Wow! Really? Then why do we sit in the VIP seats too?”
“Well… Not that far, but you can still see the awards ceremony with your own two eyes.”
“Nice! Then even the emperor and high-ranking people can watch!”
Seeing Hana Kang happy like a child, Yoo Eun and her party headed to the plaza.
Ungseong- Ungseong-
“Wow~ There are already a lot of people?”
“I see. Let’s all be careful not to fall into the crowd.”
As if to explain the reason why there are fewer people than usual, the streets start to become crowded even after coming all the way to the plaza.
Tadadadat-
“…!”
Eun Eun Yoo felt a presence running straight toward her from among the crowd behind her.
Awkwardly-
When I looked back in an instant with a sword ready to draw, there was a large man who looked startled.
“..What happened?”
Placing her hand on the hilt of her sword and not letting her guard down, she asked the man who approached her, and he gulped her saliva and opened her mouth.
“That… Are you sure you’re a ‘sword angel’?”
‘Sword Angel…? What a corny name that is..’
Yoo-eun shook her head, wondering what kind of cheesy name she had.
“Huh..? It can’t be.. I think it’s right..”
Then, while the man who spoke was flustered, Hana Kang jumped out of the party who was watching the sudden situation and said,
“That’s right! Sword Angel! It’s because this guy is shy!”
“That…Isn’t it? Because he saved me, I remember it for sure!”
A man who turned red at one word rummaged through his pocket, then pulled out a business card and handed it to Hana.
“This is..? Bob’s Restaurant! I couldn’t go there because it was too expensive!”
A man scratching his head said in response to a fuss.
“hahahaha..It’s embarrassing, but I’m running the restaurant. So I wanted to say thank you to the little but lifesaver.. If you always visit with your friends and holding that business card, we’ll give you free food. Thank you very much. Do!”
As the man with his head bowed down disappeared into the crowd, Hana approached her with a business card fluttering in her hand, grabbing Yueun’s arm and running around.
“Yoo Eun-ah! It’s awesome! It’s awesome! This place is super expensive! It’s a restaurant that the great aristocrats go to, but I got it..?”
Hana Kang, who was expressing her joy next to Yoo-eun, felt that Yoo-eun’s state with her head down was unusual.
“Hey… Eunah Yoo…?”
“…”
“Smart..?”
“…Really?”
“Huh? What?”
Eventually, Yoo Eun raised her head and asked with a desperate expression in contrast to her blushing face.
“That..That..! Title that even kindergarten kids won’t use! Does that mean me?”
How much pain she had suffered during that time.
It’s been several months since I physically silenced all the bastards who talk about ‘Sword Princess’ and whatnot.
I wondered if the title had disappeared, but now it’s ‘Sword Angel’…
Even this time, it wasn’t a name only known by those in the know, but even civilians like the restaurant owner..!
Hana, who looked at Yoo-eun, who felt dizzy as she felt her sudden dizziness, with her pitiful eyes, patted Yu-eun on the shoulder and said.
“I can’t help it, Eunah Yoo..You acted so splendidly this time..Perhaps it would be faster for you to do something different and get a different title..?”
Push-
On that day, Yu-eun had to struggle to avoid jumping into the running carriage in her shame.
The imperial palace, which was destroyed in just two days, was restored neatly as if it had never happened by mobilizing numerous magicians and superhuman knights.
After spreading the news that the imperial family was in good health to the entire capital, the capital was restored to the extent that it was impossible to believe that there had been a fierce battle in just a week after starting the capital restoration work.
‘This is the Imperial Palace…’
As she entered the palace, Yoo Eun, who separated from the party members, took off her metal armor at the urging of her ladies-in-waiting, who were astonished at her armor.
‘Eh… My heart feels empty…’
Aside from her appreciation of Eun-eun, she was being guided through the awards ceremony in a corner of the imperial palace overlooking the plaza, guided by her lady-in-waiting.
“If you receive such a commendation, bow down and say hello, then turn around halfway…”
Tot tok tok- kiik-
While the lady-in-waiting was passionately explaining to Yoo-eun, her door opened and Han In-young entered.
“Ouch..! Your Majesty!”
The startled lady-in-waiting lowered her head and at the same time her figure entered and spoke to Yu-eun.
“Nice to meet you. I was going to announce it today, but… I am Rebecca von Midgard, who became the emperor of the Midgard Empire.”
“…!”
A woman with pink hair and bright pink eyes.
It was Rebecca’s appearance.
