Chapter 108
“Damn, isn’t it crazy? Why is the demon suddenly-”
“Alex! Defend the left side!”
“Ah Okay!”
When I opened the carriage door and came out, it was already chaos outside.
Dozens of demonic beasts that I didn’t know where they came from were surrounding the group and attacking them.
‘Is this Poyensa Tiger’s work again?’
However, in order to move this many demonic beasts, space distortion must have occurred. There’s no way my father didn’t notice in advance… … .
Moreover, if you look closely at these demonic beasts… … .
‘They’re demonic beasts that live in the northern mountains,
right?’
The Caligo Mountains is the northernmost part of the empire, bordering the Lovitz Territory.
These demon beasts were the ones that lived in that area. They didn’t come down here on their own anyway… … .
‘It is the role of the Lovitz family to stop the magical beasts coming down from the northern mountain… … What on earth did you do to let the demon beasts come down here?’
There is less than 30 minutes left to reach the village where the owner of the bone powder lived.
If the demonic beasts passed by that village… … That place must have been attacked too.
I was shocked and sighed.
‘You’ve become a margrave, and you’re neglecting your job of protecting your people!’
I felt like I had to report this to His Majesty the Emperor. So that the Lovitz family cannot escape and responsibility for it.
‘First of all, I need to quickly sort out this situation.’
This time, I ran to Alex’s side and quickly used defensive magic. Then, Alex turned to look at me and made an annoyed expression.
“What are you? Why do you keep treating me like a child?”
I helped him as much as I could, but he didn’t even know how grateful he should be for that… … . I glanced at Alex and used explosive magic to blow away the head of the demonic beast that had just rushed towards me.
Alex, who saw the scene, made an indescribable expression of astonishment.
“You… … No, no, that’s enough. Be careful not to get hurt! If you get hurt, it’s obvious that His Excellency the Duke will be annoying us!”
Even so, that pesky duke was running our way, With a light of double wick in both his eyes. Even Adrian was there.
When I saw the two people running at breakneck speed, almost crushing the demonic beasts, a new realization suddenly came to me.
‘Ah… … I see… … .’
There was one more person besides Adrian who was overprotective of me. That is Llewellyn.
It’s too much to handle Adrian, but also, now I have to handle Llewellyn… … . I shook my head and calmly cast a wide-area spell to evaporate a bunch of demonic beasts. Alex, who was fighting next to me, looked a little startled and glanced at me.
“Rose!”
“Rose, stop running off as you please-.”
“Ah, okay, brother. Let’s quickly deal with this horde of demonic beasts.”
In the blink of an eye, Llewellyn and Adrian arrived in front of me and looked at me like I was a child being thrown into the water.
I focused on the fight, trying to suppress the urge to rip out both of their hair.
Although the number of demonic beasts was large, they were not very threatening. Its appearance was similar to that of an eagle with a snake’s head, but instead of having the legs of a bird, it had the legs of a wild beast like a tiger or lion.
Their claws and fangs are poisonous, so it’s dangerous to be bitten, but it’s okay if you don’t get bitten.
I exploded again and again, feeling like a player of a mobile game set to an automatic hunting.
Adrian was worse than me. He was using wide-area magic excessively, as if the endless number of demons would get annoyed and turn away.
I made a disgusted expression at the terrifying appearance of my brother, who was without fail surpassing all human beings. Then, I caught a passing glimpse of Llewellyn, and for some reason, he was using only a little of his divine power to kill his demon beasts one by one.
I soon realized why.
‘It’s because of his runaway of magical power.’
It would be very difficult if there was a severe surge in horsepower during the trip.
He seemed to be careful because the magical power surge tends to get worse after using a lot of sacred power.
‘Llewellyn, it must be difficult for him… … .’
I felt a little sorry, wondering if I had been too harsh with him so far. After this fight is over, I should at least compliment him on how pretty he is.
Did it take about ten minutes to defeat the magical beast like that? The battle finally ended when Llewellyn plunged his sword into the heart of the last remaining animal.
“Rose-.”
Adrian called, but I wanted to go to Llewellyn right away, so I passed by my brother and ran toward Llewellyn.
“Llewellyn!”
“Rosenia?”
Llewellyn let out a hearty laugh as he looked down at me as I hugged his waist.
Perhaps because he moved his body vigorously, his body temperature was warmer than usual.
I snuggled into his arms and rubbed my face. Llewellyn always had a pleasant scent.
“Excuse me… … .”
It was then. I suddenly heard Sierra’s voice and looked over, and saw Sierra handing something to Adrian.
When I narrowed my eyes and looked closely, I saw that it was the box of candy that Adrian had thrown from the carriage to hit Llewellyn in the back of the head.
The light green candy box with peppermint on it didn’t suit Adrian very well.
Adrian, who was handed the box of candy, looked at Sierra and said in an indifferent voice.
“Thank you.”
“… … !”
At that moment, Sierra’s face suddenly turned red.
Sierra lowered her head as if trying to hide her red face. Adrian left her alone and trotted off to where our father was.
‘…No way.’
I was shocked as I watched the scene from the beginning to end.
‘Sierra took liking towards Adrian…… ?’
oh my god!
Probably not? Please don’t!
Sierra, who is like an angel, falls in love with Adrian, who is like a demon king from hell… … !
‘If we continue like this, it will be a catastrophe… … !’
“Rosenia?”
Llewellyn’s voice calling me in a puzzled way interrupted my thoughts.
I suddenly came to my senses, looked at Llewellyn, and smiled awkwardly. I was distraught, but I couldn’t let that fact show to him.
‘How can I tell you that Sierra seems to like Adrian…… .’
That must be Sierra’s secret.
I couldn’t be the trash that revealed my friend’s unrequited love to my lover! I’ll have to have a serious conversation with Sierra
later. I have to keep it a secret from everyone else.
“I thought about something else for a moment. It’s not a big deal. By the way, let’s go to father too. I need to talk about what is going on.”
I held Llewellyn’s hand and headed towards where my father was. Llewellyn looked at me suspiciously, but I tried my best to pretend not to notice.
“Father!”
“Ah, Rose. Are you hurt anywhere?”
My father asked me kindly. I smiled and answered somewhat proudly.
“Of course not, not even at one place. Don’t you know Who I am?”
“Haha, right. Llewellyn, are you okay?”
“Oh, I… … .”
Llewellyn pursed his lips in embarrassment. I thought it was probably because he was called ‘Llewellyn’ by my father. After a few seconds had passed, Llewellyn stuttered a little before
answering.
“Well, I’m fine too.”
“Okay? Thank goodness. These beasts have poisonous claws and teeth, so they are quite dangerous… … .”
My father muttered to himself and looked somewhere.
When I followed my father’s gaze, I saw injured people sitting in a row receiving treatment.
‘It looks like there are no deaths. thank god.’
Some people had serious injuries, but it was nothing to worry about. because… … .
“Excuse me… … . I also want to help with treatment.”
Because Sierra has the divine power of healing.
Although Sierra felt a little awkward, she began to meticulously treat the injured. When she touched people’s wounds, they healed as if they had been washed.
“Here, take the detox potion.”
“Thank you, therapist.”
“I’m so glad that we have a therapist with us.”
“Now that I think about it, I think the therapist said she was our captain’s goddaughter… … .”
