Chapter 52 – Aren’t you worried???
I thought everything would go smoothly.
I thought there was no way a monster crawling out of a snowy field could be my opponent.
Second Holy Sword Party.
It must have been clear that this party was the only party that could surpass the ‘Hero Neferna Party’ of his father’s time. No, it had to be that way. He has consistently proven his ability through performance.
We were strong.
Even without me or without the power of the Holy Sword, the power of each individual was such that there was nothing to criticize.
There was no need for support from the empire. The fact that he was driven out to a snowy field by the emperor also has no particular meaning.
The snowy field was truly the home of our party.
The rough earth is a blanket. The high, dark sky is the ceiling.
It was our party members who had the ability to give us strong confidence that we could survive for days and days under the harsh snowy sky.
So I had no doubt about it.
He truly believed that the death of his first colleague was just bad luck.
You won’t find much meaning now.
This is the result of listening to those sweet words that comforted me without any doubt.
Chabak… Chabak…
A pool of blood, mud, and ash mixed together.
Cloudy ash floats on top of the dark red and sticky liquid, unable to mix.
It was an accidental discovery. Northern snowfield. At the foot of a steep cliff along an unexplored mountain range, I saw a lake of blood that made me feel nauseous just by looking at it.
The monster living inside was a monster that resembled a liquid that had swallowed blood.
It was a strong monster. An old monster that has completed its maturity, broken through its cocoon, and completed a complete transformation. A monster with enough power to annihilate one division of the empire.
The lake’s blood itself was changing its body at will, playing with us at a frightening speed.
A fight to the death continued. I remember fighting with all my might. I concentrated to the point where my brain was frozen and I was out of breath. My memories of the fight at that time are fragmentary. I almost died a couple of times. My leg bone was fractured, but this was fortunate.
When the lake itself was evaporated using elemental magic similar to fire, the core of the monster was revealed. Only after splitting the disgusting core with the holy sword was it possible to extinguish the lake monster.

The bottom of the evaporated lake was covered with black slime.
In the meantime, we were barely able to retrieve the body of the party member who had been thrown in.
I slowly pondered the name of the man wearing thick iron armor and wielding a large sword the size of a house.
“hahahaha, Little Hero Eugene! When are you going to grow taller?”
I remember the image of a man ruffling my hair, saying that my hair, which didn’t even reach his chest, was in a perfect place to be stroked.
I can’t quite remember what the man’s last words were.
I quietly hugged the body. The debate with the party members about the disposal of the body has already ended.
I painfully realized that I could no longer rely on their strength.
You must suck blood. And we must become stronger.
“Don’t do it.”
Her aunt, she says, in a sonorous voice.
He stops me and speaks in a firm voice.
“You will regret it later. Don’t do it.”
Then her other party members stopped her. Then the aunt scolded them with her bloodshot eyes.
“Eujin is still a child! Drain the blood of a dead party member? What on earth are you going to make your child do?! “Are you all crazy?”
Those words pierced my heart even more.
A child. Little.
To be protected,
To be protected,
A small child.
You have to become strong enough not to listen to those words.
Like some kind of obsession.
Thinking over those words that are deeply embedded in my mind,
I sank my sharp teeth into his already cold neck.

“Oh my, is it okay to do this?”
“Ugh… “
The first thing I heard was the sound of words.
Whose voice is it?
No matter how much they were asleep, it is clear that they are not a very close relationship, seeing as they were not immediately noticed.
But why on earth did he come into my lab? Maybe I was still in a dream, I thought.
It feels like something heavier is pressing down on my lungs.
At first, I thought it was just my mood, but as I thought about it carefully, I realized that the weight was gradually increasing.
I can’t breathe….
“Umm…… “
Cow wow……
“Eup… town… Ugh… !!”
Cow wow… …..!
“Cough! Cough! Wow! Puhak!”
I couldn’t stand it any longer and got up.
Something that was on top of me rolled over and fell down at the end of the bed.
“Uuuh…… “
Perhaps it was dissatisfied with having fallen, the small thing whined and stuck to my leg.
When I rubbed my bleary eyes and looked around, I saw a familiar fox with its big eyes blinking.
“… …. You.”
Why is Rongjullia here… ?
Before I could finish wondering, the princess stuck out her face from next to the bed and I had no choice but to get off the bed in shock.
“You’re awake, Professor.”
“……… ….”
“Are you still awake?”
“… No, I woke up. Because of whom.”
“I’m glad. “It’s still morning, but the sooner you practice, the better.”
“Training… ?”
“Yes, because you said you would be my mentor as a warrior.”
“You didn’t refuse?”
“When?”
“Yesterday.”
“Well?”
The princess placed her hand on her cheek and tilted her head.
Oh my God, how can you be so shameless….
“Go out now.”
“I will stay here until you give me permission.”
“Are you even going to have intuition about changing clothes?”
“……… Oh my, how unpleasant.”
“You are the one who is vulgar, princess.”
“Perhaps because you are a former warrior, your jokes are top-notch. “Then I’ll go out with this kid.”
She quickly picked up Lia, who was dozing off under her blanket, and walked out.
I haven’t told you Cecilia’s name yet. Since it seemed like we knew each other, I thought I would keep my mouth shut at first.
… By the way, when will Cecilia return to her true self? She has been suffering from abscess or something that needs to be resolved quickly…….
But if she really knew the princess, then she thought that it wouldn’t be a bad idea for her to remain as is.
***
When I changed her clothes and came out of the lab, the person who greeted me was not the princess or Cecilia, but a girl with silver hair who was running quickly with a bread in her mouth.
Why do you have bread in your mouth? Without even having time to seriously think about it, Undine goes Paba Bat! And stopped.
Boom, boom, boom! Would she even know that she almost got hit by her spinning arm?
“Ah! Undy…… Yes?”
“I’m sorry! Sorry! Mutter… I have a place I need to go urgently right now… ! Gulp!”
“Where are you going?”
“I have to go to my parents’ house! “I’ll be back soon, so don’t cheat!”
You’re talking nonsense even as you pass by quickly.
He asked again, running his hand through her bouncy silver hair.
“Isn’t this a bad thing?”
“Yes yes! Mom and Dad are calling! “You have to go with me too!”
“Oh, yes. “Say hello to my parents.”
“Yes~♡”
Leaving behind Undine, who instantly turned into a drop of water and disappeared, I looked back at the princess who was standing in front of her wall.
They didn’t even show any signs of surprise at Undine’s sudden appearance and exit.
He is consistent and behaves well. The motionless hand movements and calm expression indicate that the person is of royal blood.
“… So are you serious? “You want to learn from me?”
“Yes. “The maids who took care of my convenience also stepped aside for a while.”
“… Why are you sending the maids? “Are you asking me to wait on you?”
“It means you can treat me carelessly as long as you teach me. A unique opportunity to modify the princess of a country to her taste. If you don’t do it now, it’s difficult to taste it in your lifetime. “I don’t think it would be a waste to miss it.”
“I guess missing out on an opportunity like that would be bad for my health in many ways.”
“Are you worried?”
“Very much.”
“That’s troublesome.”
Anastasia stretched out her fingers arbitrarily.
“Then the first virtue of a warrior.”
“What are virtues…?” “
“Solving the problems of others.”
Princess Anastasia smiled softly and said.
“Now, hurry up and tell Professor Neferna about your concerns.”
“… “Who taught you the virtues of a warrior and all that?”
“The hero of the Third Holy Sword said so… Could something be wrong?”
If you are a warrior of the Third Holy Sword, you are the second most senior warrior among active warriors after the Chairman. Her characteristic is that she sometimes gets angry when people call her ‘Ajumma’ as a title. She is over 40 years old and I wish she would show a little more self-respect.
What can you expect from teaching such useless things to the princess?
“If you have time to listen to other people’s concerns, use that time to kill one more monster. “That’s what a warrior is.”
“Cutting down monsters is something you can do at any time. “There are probably things we can do differently within a peaceful empire.”
It was clear that he was top-notch when it came to catching a horse’s tail.
Just as she began to feel burdened by looking at me while holding Cecilia in her arms, I saw her fall in front of her without noticing her steps.
“….. Hey! Stairs!”
“…… hahahaha?! …… Wow, wow, thank you. “She almost fell.”
“Be careful.”
I grabbed her waist and pulled her. It felt like if I pulled on her clothes and tore them, I would end up with a result that I couldn’t handle.
How much does the dress the princess is wearing cost? At least it’s more expensive than the crystal ball I broke.
As I was idly assessing the amount, there were two shadows rising from below.
The familiar faces were Professor Aegis and Freya. It would have been nice if I had noticed right away, but as it happened, I was preoccupied with other things.
Depending on the composition of looking up from below, I think the princess and I may have looked somewhat unhealthy.
The moment our eyes met, I felt cold sweat running down my face.
After a short silence, Professor Aegis spoke first.
“Oh my~ hehehe♪ Professor Neferna. Is it the princess this time~♩ You’re saying so many things~”

“…… Hmm, I thought you were just a trashy pervert who likes children, but it turns out he just likes any woman younger than you.”
“Wait a minute, Professor Aegis, Freya. “Let’s think about it calmly.”
What’s so funny about Professor Aegis, who smiles brightly, and Freya, who doesn’t even look at me with a cold face for some reason.
I quickly stretched out my hand, but the two people disappeared down the stairs at a faster pace.
A big problem has occurred.
What kind of disaster is this?
In particular, Freya had not even been able to explain the incident with the ‘Pedonandes’ Agricultural Society’ flyer.
If things continue like this, I can’t even imagine what kind of accusations will be made.
The princess, who was watching my expression closely, suddenly asked: Her eyes were filled with curiosity and sparkling like stars.
“Worried!”
The following question was enough to make my mind sparkle.
“Aren’t you worried about love issues?”
