Princess Messina Vans da Ittisel tossed and turned at the difort brought about by the breastte she had worn for the first time.


    The ceremonial armor made only for the royal family had enchanted magic more important than the original performance of the armor, so there was no need to worry about strength, and as a result, it was as light as the clothes she was wearing, but there was nothing I could do about hardness. The only person watching was Heyri, an aide, but the butler, Heyri, who was still watching Messina, who was fidgeting and unable to move much to keep her body in shape, smiled lightly at the owner and quietly approached him.


    “I’ll adjust the shoulder straps and tighten the left and right belts a bit more. You may feel a little pressure, but it’s better than being annoying every time you move.”


    “Um, do that.”


    As a skilled butler and knight, Heyri’s measures were over in an instant. Messina, feeling more at ease, smiled contentedly and began to focus on her work again. And after a while, he didn’t go back to his ce and looked at Heyri, who was still a little closer, and asked.


    “Is there anything you want to say, Heyri?”


    “…no.”


    Actually, there are many things I want to say. From why Messina, who has no talent forbat, had to put on armor and supervise underground waterways under the name of the royal family, why she moved like that and even drastically reduced the number of guards, and so on. It wasn’t that I doubted my master’s intelligence, but it wasn’t easy to understand that he only chose to act far from safety.


    Messina respected the servant’s mindset and nodded slightly, then returned to work. Even so, the work of sitting down with an expressionless face and grasping the report brought from the area where the investigation waspleted was only carried out in a building with the grandiose name of ‘Temporary Command Center for Underground Water Ecology Check’.


    After killing the traitor Envelde, it was nothing more than a leisurely investigation from the victor’s point of view of the threat he may have nted. To emphasize that there is no threat, Messina, who is apanied by a minimum of escorts and everyone knows that there is no battle or connection, must drive a wedge by moving.


    It had to look that way and fortunately it did.


    ‘Too many things are being sacrificed to preserve the prestige of the Holy Light Cross.’


    Of course, the speed waspletely different. Looking at the report, Messina was anxious to see if the scales in her heart would tip to the side of losses.


    During the long war with the Demons, the Holy Cross Society provides a lot of help and has many believers, and in fact, it is one of the few religions in which the vast majority of branches operate for the public good, not self-interest. At a time like this, when the war is not yet over, if at any other time, the story cannot be allowed to spread that the center of such a religion has been corrupted and destroyed by the devil.


    However, due to the recent raid on the port city, the boundary between tension and leisure, which had been barely maintained, has been greatly shaken. If even religion, which can be called the pir of the heart, is shaken, it is unknown what kind of aftermath it will bring.


    So, the kingdom ‘pretended’ to stand by while the Holy Cross extended a helping hand to the warriors in the empire. It wasn’t that he didn’t ask for help because he was really weak, but that ‘they were so great that the hero had to move, so he was also attacked by the Holy Cross.’ Because she knew better than anyone else that she needed the title and that a warrior was needed for the recently discovered authority of the saintess.


    Considering that the prestige of the royal family could be diminished in the process, it was a really big concession. I couldn’t openly show condescension, so I couldn’t evenin even if I wiped my mouth at the Holy Cross Societyter, but I couldn’t help it. Because the war wasn’t going on alone with the royal family.


    But another problem popped up.


    I could still hear the drool from my father, Itthiel VII, when I was informed that the battle at the Headquarters might have been just a skirmish, and that demon worshipers were about to unleash a demon, the equivalent of a Prime Evil, in the middle of the kingdom’s capital. .


    It was right to consider myself lucky that I was able to avoid wasting time by figuring out where I was responsible, which meant nothing. The reason why the Pdins were able to directly ept the excuses that they did not understand because they were proceeding in a new way that had never been done before and the King was able to immediately start preparing countermeasures was at a time when the nobles belonging to the aristocracy were greatly reduced due to the traitor Envelde. It was possible.


    If he had been alive, how many disturbances would there have been? Seeing that the devil worshipers naturally sneaked into the underground waterways, it was still less discovered, but it was not difficult to guess that Envelde had not done one or two tricks while sending manpower to inspect the waterways over the past few years.


    What if he had been coborating with devil worshipers for a long time and took this incident as an opportunity to raise his voice on arge scale? What if it btedly decided to cooperate even if it was not a cooperative rtionship? After thinking the other way for a moment and making that assumption, Messina shook his head lightly, feeling goosebumps.


    Regardless of sess or failure, it is certain that it will remain as one of the big reasons for the copse of the kingdom. Messina, who shook off that terrible thought, told her butler Heyri, not her friend Heyri, for official work.


    “Thest report from the Civilian Quarter confirms that there is no problem. Leave the minimum number of people required to close the passageway and order them to move to other districts ording to their scheduled formations.”


    The excuse to send the Holy Knights of the Holy Cross to the academy, which helped in the investigation of the most important civilian residential area, was finallyplete. Heyri, who correctly understood the meaning, received the order handed over with the royal seal, nodded quietly, and left the room. Messina, who was slightly depressed while contemting the problems in the silent room, sighed deeply and changed her thoughts.


    ‘I should thank God that theical situation where I couldn’t even investigate while pretending to be rxed even though I knew that the basement of the academy was obviously the most dangerous is over.’


    After a brief break, Messina stretched lightly and rose from his seat. But her head was still working harder than ever to calcte the profit and loss.


    Since the threat has already been massively withdrawn, they can’t move the knights in a hurry. For the same reason, the Holy Knights cannot move first in situations where demons may be crawling under their feet. Since it was an openly managed underground aqueduct, there was no way to hide their movements, and rumors would spread in one form or another. Even the empire, which did not want the bnce of the kingdom to copse, cooperated… but it was a cramped situation where the empire could not move the warriors on arge scale to avoid the stigma of wielding power by intervening in the kingdom.


    Even if the tower of hard work copses, should we turn off the fire right away or should we endure the risk of being burned along with the tower of hard work? While everyone was grunting over the two options, it was Duke Lesrom who came up with a third option that could be a solution.


    ording to his secret advice, the n was adjusted in such a way that the 4th princess directly contacted Eldmia and made him move.


    The young man, who knew how to use his brain to the point where he wondered if he was a realmoner, even knew how to attach a reason for his movement. I was dumbfounded when I heard that he had drawn not only his close friendship with Sir Cheryl, who was attending the academy, but also his position as an assistant to the professor, in order to create a feeling that he was inevitably helping.


    ‘Where in the world do you look like you’re 15 years old?’


    so efficient


    It seemed like he could understand why the nobles were fighting so hard to appoint or use the boy. Now, even if demons or whateveres out from the basement of the academy, it has be a situation where it is rather beneficial if they can only subdue them.


    Now, as long as he wasn’t hurt, it didn’t matter if he couldn’t subdue him. It wouldn’t take 10 minutes for the request entrusted to Heyri to be in the hands of the Holy Knights of the Holy Light Cross, and it would take less than 20 minutes for them to go to the academy.


    The story of Enbelde’s remnants who fled underground while attending the academy ‘clumsy’ joined hands with devil worshipers and tried to prevent them in advance, while the students were aware of and stopped them, cooperated with the pdins to eradicate them. The story is quite stimting. And it was something a lot of people would like.


    Of course, if you had witnessed what was happening in that underground waterway right now, you might have had a hole in the top due to stress, but there was no way for Messina to know that.
