43 – War of the two princesses [Meet the princess again] – 5

Hundreds of troops, who had not yet entered the village, were beginning to be felt in the distance.

It wasn’t that many troops, but I could definitely feel it.

An army of several hundred men approaching this village.

Those armies were none other than the Empire’s army.

“What the hell is it?”

And, to be honest, I couldn’t help but be surprised when I learned that such an army was now coming to my village.

It would be fair to say that such an army is right in front of our village, that we cannot understand the current situation.

I didn’t get it at all. No matter how much I thought about it, there was no reason. The Empire’s army couldn’t find a compelling reason to come here.

“Did you come to catch me?”

At first, I thought that for a moment.

Couldn’t the first princess, Lesia, have a grudge against me and came to drag her troops like this to attack me? such a thought.

I was confident that the princess said that she didn’t have the guts to retaliate against me, but for a brief second I wondered if she had the guts to come here just now.

“Are you really crazy?”

When I thought about that, I couldn’t help but get a little angry.

When I looked at the emperor’s face and looked at him appropriately, I briefly thought that he might have invaded like this without understanding the situation.

So, should I just kill it this time? The moment my thoughts gradually changed to such a serious thought.

“No… The reason for bringing that army is obvious.”

However, no matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t seem like that.

Come to think of it, there was a reason.

The reason why the princess led her army and invaded our village now was not because of me.

If there’s one reason for the military to come here besides me, that’s it.

“Hmm. Warrior. What’s going on outside? Why are you doing that?”

It must have been the second princess staring blankly at me, not knowing what the situation was right now.

Perhaps the reason why the first princess, Lesia, invaded this place was probably because of Anastasia.

This would have been a great opportunity to catch Anastasia, the traitor to the Empire.

‘… Annoyingly real.’

Looking at Anastasia like that, I sighed.

After all, when you said you wanted to stay here for 3 days, you should have told me not to use energy.

At that time, I couldn’t properly reject it, so I felt like this bothersome things were happening.

“Ehh. That’s all right. I’ll go out for a while and come back. You too, hurry back to your room.”

“Huh? Warrior. Don’t push me. I’ll go on my own.”

I was a little worried about telling this, but I sent it back moderately thinking that it would only raise things more.

Anastasia looked like she had no idea why I was doing this, but it was none of my business.

‘after. I should meet you first.’

Anyway, now it was time for me to fix that problem.

Although such an army was still roaming outside the village, it was quite a nuisance for that army to enter this village.

I got out of the house and headed for the army.

“Who are you…!?”

So when I arrived at the place where the troops were, the man riding the horse at the forefront asked me.

Perhaps this person is the highest-ranking person in the army right now.

“Hero Rag.”

I didn’t have to hide my identity from him.

I explained myself at once.

“Huh…!? Yo… Hero?”

“Then who are you?”

“Yo… You’re a warrior. I’m called General Lanton.”

At first, the general had a very high-handed attitude, but when I let him know that I was a hero, the man’s attitude faded.

Then, when I asked the station again, the man got off the horse and told me who he was.

Looking at such a man, I nodded my head.

“I see. So what’s going on here?”

However, that didn’t mean that the current hostility was resolved.

My town was a place full of precious things to me.

I couldn’t let go of my guard against the dangers and the people who tried to enter such a place in the middle of the night with a knife and a cane.

Of course, I had assumed that Anastasia would be taken, but I had to check first.

I instructed you to tell me the purpose of coming here.

“I heard that Princess Anastasia is here, so I came to take her.”

General Lanton, who answers me. As expected, my predictions were correct.

He had come here to find Anastasia.

After confirming that fact, I took a moment to think.

‘Hmm… How do I do this?’

To be honest, I have absolutely nothing to do with the Imperial army taking Anastasia.

I didn’t know which of the two princesses would become emperor anyway, and it would be better for me to take Anastasia now.

The annoying things will disappear, and it will be much quieter.

So I thought about it for a while, but it seems like it won’t work.

‘And if it suddenly disappears, Lily can get suspicious.’

Right now, I was hiding the fact that I was a hero from my younger sister, so that I wouldn’t worry too much about it.

I was going to tell you this sooner or later, but I couldn’t say it in the middle of strange words about the resurrection of the devil, and I didn’t want to let this opportunity tell me that I was a hero.

I had to leave sooner or later to defeat the demon lord, but I didn’t want to see my sister’s crying face in the process.

That’s why if I took Anastasia just now, there was a risk that Lili would become suspicious of something and get caught.

Because of that, I couldn’t pass on Anastasia.

Because I couldn’t make my sister worry about anything until she defeated the demon lord.

‘Well, it’s not because I promised to let you stay for three days…’

It became an act of keeping a promise unintentionally, but it didn’t matter what the promise was.

What mattered to me was my younger sister, who should be safe and happy without any worries.

Right now, it would be right to take Anastasia’s side out of necessity.

“Hero, can you hand over Princess Anastasia? I heard that she is here.”

“There is no one like that.”

“Yes?”

“No.”

The man who identified himself as General Lanton, he politely asked me for a favor, but unfortunately I had no intention of accepting it.

And now, in the middle of the night, I had no intention of being kind to the troops who were making a fuss, trying to enter my village.

Just, I was going to send the troops back doing what I had to do.

“But…”

“Can’t you hear me say no?”

Of course, it was General Lanton who wasn’t going to go back easily.

As if thinking that it was almost certain that Anastasia was here, she did not back down from me, somehow expressing her regret.

But, it was the same for me too. I never had any intention of bringing an army into the village.

“Then may I go in and check?”

“no.”

“Why not?”

“I know it won’t work if it doesn’t.”

Somehow, it seemed a bit far-fetched, but I couldn’t help it.

I didn’t want to cause any unnecessary worries to the villagers, and that’s the most important issue for me, so I have to be sensitive.

I firmly declined General Lanton’s offer.

“…”

General Lanton made an expression as if he didn’t know what to do as he listened to me say this.

He seemed to have a lot of trouble right now, and I understood a little bit of his mind.

After all, what could be wrong with General Lanton?

In the first place, it was obvious that the princess had ordered all of this, but it was the moment I slightly sensed that I was getting angry at someone worthless.

“Okay, is Princess Lesia here too?”

So, it would be better to talk to the person in power rather than the pathetic middle manager.

I told General Lanton to bring the princess, and he was taken aback.

“Yes? The princess?”

The way he said that he didn’t expect it at all, he looked away with a look of complete disbelief.

It was a very hesitant expression.

He trembled as to whether he should give me the princess or not, and seemed to be agonizing over which choice was right.

“No. I’ll just go.”

Well, I didn’t have to wait for General Lanton’s answer.

I walked slowly, past General Lanton, past the soldiers.

The princess followed me anyway because I had a certain intuition and was almost certain.

I continued walking out like that, and happened to find a carriage that was slightly ornately decorated.

I thought the princess would be here.

Again, the predictions fit very well.

“Ra… Rag hero?”

Look at me, 1st Princess Lesia, whose complexion is as blue as if she met some kind of ghost.

“Princess. I see you often.”

I greeted the princess politely and warmly.

First of all, since her name is the princess, she should be polite.

‘Well, I’m not here to go to war.’

Besides, I had no particular intention of harming the princess.

After all, the princess had been aiming for Anastasia for the time being.

That is why the princess and I were not enemies. So I looked at the princess kindly and smiled slightly.

“Hee… hee…!”

My kind expression.

Seeing that expression, for some reason, the princess’s thighs got wet again.
