118 – I’m here to look for flowers, I’m here, I’m here (5)
A business trip to the human kingdom has been decided. It would be nice to bring all the members. Of course it couldn’t be. There is a possibility that the fort will be attacked after taking everyone one by one.
As the True Ancestors were defeated, the appearance of demons greatly decreased. On the contrary, the monsters started to get more aggressive. No matter how you look at it, it looked like he was trying to fill the empty spot of the demons.

After much thought, Hans chose two people. It was Bayard and Helia. A business trip in the human kingdom would not be dangerous. But we needed the right people for the position.
However, you cannot give up your interests for the cause. Hans had deployed enough troops to hold the fort without him. That’s what had Cluna and Yuren on standby.
Of course, Cluna and Yuren strongly protested. It was the logic that the leader’s safety was the top priority. So, the person Hans chose to respond to that was Bayard.
“Bayard’s skills are more than enough to protect me.”
“Thank you, Captain.”
“Tsk, can’t help it.”
“It’s not wrong.”
Yuren and Cluna didn’t make any concessions when it came to the captain’s safety. I couldn’t say anything this time. It was because everyone recognized Bayard’s skills.
However, choosing Helya was a surprising response. Of course, Helya wasn’t at the level of tarnishing the name of the Royal Knights either. She was still relatively incompetent.
But Hans didn’t give up. In the end, it was decided that Bayard and Helya would go with Hans to the human kingdom. Although the mouths of the members who were not selected came out.
There was no member present who would strongly oppose the leader’s choice. In any case, if it was the captain’s choice. Because in the end, I have no choice but to follow. Even if it means risking one’s life.
“Sir, why did you choose me?”
When the surroundings became quiet, Helya asked cautiously. Although the extent of Helya’s love for Hans was beyond her imagination. Lately, little by little, she was losing that confidence.
It is true that compared to her age, Helya’s skills are outstanding. Besides that, she has been improving her skills even more lately. She was so fast that even Yuren was astonished.
However, Helya herself was not satisfied. Rather, she felt that she was holding the teacher’s ankle. Rather than that, maybe it would be right for her to leave.
To the extent that I even thought of it to the extreme. Her Helya confidence was driven to the precipice. In that situation, Hans suddenly chose him. She couldn’t help but panic.
“Because you didn’t look very good.”
“Yes?”
“Your face has been troubled lately.”
“…….”
“That’s not a bad thing. It’s a good thing. But, sometimes you need to be reminded of something like this.”
Helya quietly shut her mouth. Because if she didn’t, she felt like her tears would come out any second. With her insecurities that she couldn’t help, she did it.
Because we already lost our precious people in the war. The already unstable ego of the child was shattered. Even so, she was being looked after properly by the teacher.
The impression made Helya tremble. Of course, this is from her Helia point of view. In fact, Hans was worried about Helia’s runaway. It’s fine now, though.
In the original work, Helya was actually more of a villain than a heroine. Because the main character of the bed ending who betrays and kills the main character in the first place was Helia. She was a child who didn’t know where to bounce.
‘Because it’s difficult to go crazy like the original. I have to take care of it a lot.’
Of course, Helya had already run out of control once. Hypnotized Hans was not yet aware of the fact. Anyway, just like that, Hans set off straight for the human kingdom.
“Wyverns are very convenient.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Orcs have their own useful corners.”
Unlike Helia, who meekly agreed. Bayard showed an overtly hostile look. But Hans didn’t point it out. Because the Beasts and Orcs were enemies of each other.
Hans quickly changed the subject, realizing that continuing on with the subject was a land mine. Soon he flew up into the sky with the wyvern, and the scenery of the mountains came into view.
“The surrounding scenery is not bad.”
“This is fine.”
“Look at it as much as you like. It is the land we will protect.”
“I will engrave it on my chest.”
I was a bit surprised when Bayard suddenly answered seriously. Hans passed it on, thinking that good is good. Bayard, however, took Hans’ words very differently.
Unlike Hans, who spoke of his purpose as a Royal Knight. Bayard was accepted by the Royal Knights after driving out his demons. The captain was already looking at the next one.
Perhaps the next thing the captain is looking at is the villains threatening the continent. Like an orc for example. They’re just monsters stuck here to fight.
‘If we collapse, there will be no follow-up.’
Bayard got all his heart. He must have glided through the sky for about half a day. Hans was finally able to reach the human kingdom. He arrived faster than expected.
“As expected, it’s comfortable to fly in the sky.”
“It’s nice that I didn’t waste your valuable time.”
“Yes, yes.”
I didn’t expect heavy words to come back. Hans laughed lightly. Thanks to the fact that he told the story in advance. He barely escaped being hit by arrows or magic.
The wyvern landed softly in the courtyard of the palace. Although his soldiers were on the alert with a nervous look. No further action was taken. Hans landed on the ground.
“This is Hans, the leader of the Royal Knights. Where is the King?”
“My name is Melissa, Captain of the Guard. Please be mindful of the title.”
“Well, I see. Then…”
“Where are you talking arrogantly?”
He thought it was a legitimate request. After all, he is the king of a country. Also, there are a lot of things that I’m obsessed with. So Hans also tried to set an example. Until Bayard suddenly accelerated.
The Bayard behind him didn’t look good. He strides forward, warning Melissa. At that moment, no one could get his words out. Like an angry beast in front.
Instinctive fear stopped me from speaking. Of course the guards, including Melissa. Even Hans in the back. At least Hans was behind him, so he was less affected.
If even Hans was speechless for a moment. The guards who face the ferocious spirit in front of them must be so appalling. Hans opened his mouth in a sudden rush.
“Bayard, what happened all of a sudden?”
“They threatened me first.”
“Threatened?”
“Didn’t you force the captain to surrender?”
“Oh.”
It was only then that Hans realized why Bayard had gone berserk. Bayard is a beast race. In other words, their values are close to those of beasts. And to her, Hans was the chief she had to obey.
But right now, I challenged the authority of the boss. A group of weak prey. Naturally feeling threatened, Bayard had no choice but to react. Aigoo.
Hans felt her head hurt. The first thing to do was to rectify the current situation. Even if they look like that, the royal guards protect the royal family. Of course, most of them will be talented.
‘It’s troublesome to cause useless trouble.’
I don’t want them to fight among themselves and eat up their power. However, defeating Bayard could reduce the weight of the Royal Knights. Carefully here.
“Bayard, you have to be tolerant of the mistakes of others.”
“Captain, but…”
“This much is acceptable for the sake of the cause.”

“If that’s the captain’s will.”
Bayard quietly backed away. Thanks to this, the guards were able to move to some extent. Hans looked at her and stuck out her tongue. Live to the extent that they will be crushed.
“There was a bit of a commotion. Are you all right? Sir Melissa.”
“Oh, no. Thank you for thinking about it.”
“Yes. I’m glad then.”
Melissa clicked her tongue inside her. A brutal life that seemed to crush the whole body with a huge iron bar. But with one word she said it, she lightly repelled it. Indeed, the leader of the Royal Knights.
But aside from that. The violence just before that was a problem that could not be overlooked. As a member of the Royal Guard, I made a legitimate request, and what came back was to suppress it with force.
No matter how much you call them Royal Knights. Isn’t this a little bit After much thought, Melissa made her decision. I will report all of this to His Majesty. Before it gains any more momentum.
‘Besides, seeing you in person, I have no idea what the captain is thinking.’
He is from the human kingdom. She heard that she was chosen by our king and recommended to be the leader of the Royal Knights. However, the appearance he showed now was not a loyalist no matter how you look at it.
What are you?
What is the purpose?
Melissa’s vigilance grew more and more as time went on.
