Agnes tensed up and gave strength to the small pistol she was holding.
‘Was it really an area that hasn’t been reviewed yet?’
If the situation arises, I grab the reins with the intention of driving the horse and running away….
“Nyan.”
What emerged from among the piles of trash was a small cat with black fur.
“Eh?”
“Nyan.”
Agnes frowned and checked the black cat several times.
Agnes was taken aback and wasn’t sure if it was a monster or just a cat.
This was because all monsters had one color in common: black.
In fact, the monsters were similar in appearance to ordinary animals.
However, the monsters controlled by demons had black body surfaces and crazy red eyes.
Because of this, there were cases where they were confused with animals with regular black fur, but the way to distinguish them was simple.
Monsters that have been demonized and dyed black cannot see the texture of their fur.
It took on a pitch-black appearance without any shadows, as if it ignores the light.
And its body was at least twice the size of an ordinary animal.
But that cat had messy but fluffy fur, its eyes were yellow instead of red, and were the size of the palm of your hand.
“Hah…I was so scared.”
Agnes belatedly breathed a sigh of relief.
The black-haired cat glanced at Agnes and rustled again through his trash pile.
‘It still looks like a young kitten…’
After the emergence of monsters, people disliked animals with black fur and considered them ominous.
In particular, common cats and dogs were easily exposed to abuse.
‘A cat without an owner?’
If it had been someone’s cat, it couldn’t have been in a place like this.
After watching the cat for a while, I grabbed the reins and tried to move.
“Nyan.”
A cat came out of the trash heap, stood in front of the horse Agnes was riding, and flicked its tongue at the top of Agnes’ foot.
There was a red scar on the top of the cat’s paw. The wound was sore and sore that the cat continued to lick it with his tongue.
“Did you get scratched by a tree branch? Or who bullied you?”
Agnes got off her horse and approached the cat, as if she was possessed without realizing it.
When she carefully held out her hand, the cat nagged Agnes’ finger without warning.
‘cute.’
Agnes reached out her other hand and lightly stroked the cat’s head. And for a moment she concentrated all her nerves on his fingertips.
Blue light flowed from his pure white fingertips.
The light scattered in various directions, drawing mysterious curves, landed on the kitten’s wound.
Small clusters of light orbited around it a few times, as if caressing a wound.
Then, the wound, which was red and visible, was completely healed.
“Nyan!”
The kitten realized that Agnes had treated its wounds and began to rub its head against the white palm.
“Do you want to patrol with me?”
To be honest, it was true that I was a little scared to patrol the empty village alone. There was something to say, but I thought it would be better if I added at least one more.
“Nyan.”
After greeting the kitten and the white horse, Agnes climbed on her horse.
It was time to move on to search again.
Suddenly, a cold feeling struck my back.
It was a strange feeling. A shiver ran down his spine and the tips of my hair stood on end. I inhaled on my own and stopped breathing.
Agnes froze and couldn’t bear to turn around, only blinking.
What came into her sight was a huge shadow. It was four times larger than the white horse seen just a moment ago combined with its own shadow.
Agnes had never encountered a real monster before.
I instinctively felt exposed to death.
“Squeak-squeak-.”
As soon as a strange sound was heard, Agnes’ head turned back.
The moment her eyes meet those creepy red eyes.
At the same time, red blood splattered over Agnes’ body.
Agnes squeezed her eyes shut as the fountain of blood poured all over her body.
And when she opened her eyes again, abe saw a black monster with its body split in half and on fire.
What was visible between them was Kylo Gray, holding a sword dripping with blood.
“I’m glad it’s not too late.”
The owner of the low voice was relieved to see her.
Agnes froze for a moment, then wiped the blood from her face with her relatively intact sleeve.
‘That’s crazy…There was a real monster.’
Was Kylo really planning to kill me?
However, to think that way, Kylo appeared at her desperate moment and saved her.
While she was so shocked and dazed, Kylo came closer to her and looked at her complexion.
“Are you okay?”
“…….”
Agnes looked up at him, thinking about pretending to be dizzy and falling into his arms.
Kylo Gray’s expression showed a troubled emotion. That also means that it is an unexpected situation.
Agnes quickly grasped the situation and asked.
“I really didn’t expect monsters to appear.”
“So do i. There was an error in the report.”
Kylo Gray let out a nervous breath and stroked his bangs.
30 minutes ago, Kylo Gray was on his way to Area A-15, just in case.
He had finished searching the area, but he didn’t know what to do. If he was lucky, he could hide and surprise the princess and watch her cry.
However, just before leaving, he ran into Victor Craven, a member of the Black Knights.
And he heard nonsense.
“leader. A-15 area I went to yesterday. I will go now and finish it.”
“……Didn’t you finish it yesterday? I saw it and uploaded the documents.”
“Just. I just uploaded it in advance. If you go and come back it would be annoying.”
“What? then… !”
“yesterday. Anna Montrose That girl. She came and made a fuss. So the search stopped. The cat is missing and it’s in my clothes pocket. She kept talking nonsense. So now I have to go again.”
“Shit!”
It was something that could have almost been a big problem. Kylo broke into a cold sweat as he looked at Agnes, who was safe.
Victor Craven. I was a fool for trusting that bastard.
If he had known earlier, he would have sent the princess to another area or set off together from the beginning.
If it had been just a little bit later, the princess might have died.
Kylo’s heart pounded wildly at the knowledge that his head had almost been blown off by a single mistake.
And the fangirl who faced him also had her heart beating wildly. In a slightly different sense…
‘My favorite person saved me.’
What if the dopamine explodes and die?
Agnes tried to calm her pounding heart.
“Anyway…My mistake almost put you in danger. I apologize.”
Kylo looked at her and held out his handkerchief from his arms.
I offered it out of courtesy, but I didn’t expect the arrogant princess to accept it.
But Agnes seemed to have been waiting, took the handkerchief and put it into her inner pocket at the speed of light.
“??”
It was a handkerchief given to her to wipe the blood off her face…
Kylo was embarrassed by Agnes’ behavior, but there was no time to argue with it.
There was no telling when this arrogant princess would change her attitude and threaten to report to her emperor.
Of course, there was no major accident…If we say that it was something that was expected in advance and that it was intended to scare people properly as ordered by His Majesty the Emperor, then it would work…
Kylo looked at Agnes’ complexion with a heavy expression, fearing that his path to success might be blocked.
Agnes was clearly in bad condition.
Her cheeks were flushed, as if she was very surprised, and she was breathing heavily. It felt like her weak body would collapse at any moment.
“Does your head hurt? Are you dizzy?”
“that…I think so.”
Agnes didn’t feel dizzy, but she immediately responded to his words and held her head.
From what I could tell, Kylo also seemed very surprised to see a real monster appear.
‘It was an unexamined area.’
It was clear that she realized the fact too late and rushed over.
Agnes said that everything was going well for him.
“Now that the leader has arrived, we will search the remaining areas together…”
I was about to finish saying, “I will.”
Thick, thud.
The sound of horse hooves came closer to the two people.
Agnes and Kylo turned their heads at the same time.
“Raymond Spencer?”
The man who appeared on a silver-haired horse was Raymond Spencer.
