The knights were gathered among the kings, which were holy places.

But their eyes were not of the sane.

A red eye that blends with the blood of a monster.

Their hostility was directed at Sonia, the witch of light.

Gwwwwwwwww!

A runaway knight raises the beast's roar.

"--haah!"

Before the knights' swords pierced Sonia's body, the knights' deputy commander Eleanor's sword knocked them down.

"Master Sonia, stay behind me."

"Yeah."

Sonia nodded behind Eleanor.

"Eleanor, you're insane."

"I intend to. --Not to mention, they're the ones who keep their sanity here, and we may be more unusual."

Maybe so.

Eleanor stands in front of Sonia and escorts Sonia from the runaway knights.

Her swordsmanship takes the nickname Ice Princess.

That's more than Gregor, the commander of the regiment.Even if the knights of Ping form a bundle, they are invincible.

--I was supposed to.

"Kh...!?"

However, Eleanor was overwhelmed in confrontation with the knights.

"It's much more powerful than usual...!?And no matter how many times you slash down, it's as if you don't feel pain...! "

Each one of the runaways had unusual powers.

Eleanor was forced to defend the knights in front of him, sometimes fighting consciously to protect Sonia.

--If you keep this up, you'll eventually lose...!

Except for Sonia, only Eleanor is sane right now.

--Captain Gregor is missing.Besides me, the knights ran wild, or the sane were defeated by the runners.

I can't expect any backup.

I mean...

If Eleanor falls, there will be no one to protect Sonia.That way the knights will try to kill Sonia.

- I will never let that happen.Sonia is a light of hope for mankind.I will surely defend myself against this life.

Gwwwwwwwww!

Get attacked by the knight who jumped in.

Instead of a sword pointing to his waist, he left no sign of a proud knight in his appearance as he attacked with his full waist at the mercy of his strength.

I don't know what he did.

But I realized that I had been robbed of my dignity as a knight.

For Eleanor, it was about feeling angry above all else.Slash the incoming enemy down and drain the blood from the sword.

"Sonia, stay behind me!"

"Yeah."

Behind Eleanor - Sonia stood on the throne.

From that place, I can see a herd of irrational knights approaching us with their murderous intentions stripped out.

A large number of negative emotions push against Sonia's luxurious body.

Eleanor is now a jetty, but if she falls, Sonia will be swallowed by a lot of malice.

Sonia's expression was unshakeable in the face of a life-threatening crisis.I have always been calm, as I have always been.

And...

Sonia was not obsessed with living.

against my own destiny.

If the life of the Witch of Light is crushed, the sealed Demon King will be resurrected and mankind will be destroyed - that doesn't even matter.

For Sonia, humanity was not worthy of protection.

The royal family and nobles think only of enriching themselves, and the lower ones do not fulfill their duties, but only claim their rights loudly.

Despite the circumstances in which humanity as a whole should unite, many vulnerable people are sacrificed to start a struggle between nations and to enrich the private stomachs of the superiors.

Even if Sonia devotes her life to the role of witch of light to protect humanity, everyone hurts and kills each other like the wind blows everywhere.

Who am I doing this for?

No one wants to protect you.

All humans are good creatures.

I wish the Demon King had been resurrected and destroyed.

Sonia thought witches of light were sacrifices.A sacrifice to seal a powerful creature called the Demon King in the Orb of Light.

Sonia was therefore not afraid to die.Unobsessed with the world, she was ready to die at any time.

The people of the country looked at Sonia and praised her for her strength, but she understood that it was not really strength or anything.

There's nothing to lose, so don't be afraid.

So even in a situation where the knights are about to kill us, Sonia should have been free from fear.

--But I'm scared.

I haven't stopped shaking since before.

If you don't want to die, I really think so.

When I thought about why I thought like that, it was the appearance of a guard who looked over Sonia's head.

Sieg.

He was a strange man.

Even in front of him, a witch of light, he was not afraid, and dwelt on him with the strength of a thick core passing through his back.

Why do you risk your life to protect people?Humanity is not worth protecting.

When I asked him that, he returned it.

--I just want to protect my loved ones.They are colleagues of the guards, former colleagues, and the people of the city.

--I don't like anybody either.There are a lot of things in my eyes.From the perspective of humanity as a whole, it is sometimes questionable whether it is worth protecting.However - I have decided to protect mankind from the hands of the demons to protect my loved ones.

Fight to protect people you care about.

Humanity is nothing more than that.

He was the last person Sonia had ever seen.

Beyond his mouth, Zeke risked his life to protect Sonia.He had the courage to stand alone in front of a herd of monsters.

That is not the strength of life.

To protect what needs to be protected.

I felt like I saw the real strength on his back.

"---ku!"

Eleanor was at a disadvantage in front of Sonia.He was being pushed by knights who were gushing down and down.

"I will never let you go to the princess...!"

Eleanor risked her life to protect herself.

From her blind spot, one of the unreasonable knights was about to attack.

It was Eleanor who noticed the aggression, but he had already confronted another knight, so he couldn't intercept immediately.

With this, Eleanor will be defeated.

Sonia's body was reflexively moving when she thought so.Running off the spot, the knight who was targeting Eleanor took a hit.

"Ghh!?"

Suddenly struck, the runaway knight collapsed.

"Princess!? What..."

I didn't even know why it moved.

I just wanted to protect it.

We can't just leave Sonia alone in the face of the imminent crisis of a brave knight who risked his life to protect her.

Ghhhhhhh!

After all, it's a little girl who hasn't fought before.There is no way to lose the war.The knight man beat Sonia to death.

"A-ahh!"

Sonia's body, bounced like a drainage stone, is slammed against the floor.You can't be struck by a shock that strikes your whole body.

--I can't move my body....!

A crowd of knights approaches Sonia.

"Princess!!"

Eleanor runs out to rescue Sonia immediately.--But the other knights stood in the way.

"Kh...! I can't make it...!"

Sonia raised her face with her buttocks on the floor.

The red eyes of the knights stared at us all at once.Before the condensed malice, his whole body was strong as if he had been tied up.

Definitely killed.

Sonia, who was facing imminent death, remembered as a horse-racing light the words she had exchanged with Sieg in the sacred fountain.

Sieg, I have one more question for you.

--Whatever.

--Are there people in there that you want to protect?

--Of course.

He responded without hesitation.

That's why Sonia asked unexpectedly.

... even if the power of the Witch of Light disappears from me.Will you still risk your life to protect me?

Someone named Sonia, not a witch or a princess of light.

Why did you ask such a question?

Looking back now, my face is about to catch fire.

Everyone around me saw Sonia only as a witch of light.Only myself as a pillar to seal the Demon King.

So...

Maybe there was only one person in the world who wanted me to recognize the human value of Sonia, not the witch of light, not the princess.

Sieg said.

- If that's what you want.Even if you risk your life.

I became afraid of death when I heard that word.After Sieg told me that, I became obsessed with living things.

At that moment, the sight began to fade.

There was a sense of rejuvenation that made me think that I was the center of the world.I had a fever all over my body as if I had been hit by a spotlight.

I didn't realize at that time, but it wasn't only because I bought his abilities that I wanted to heavily use Siegfried as a guard.

I wanted to put Sieg next to me.

The moment Sonia understood it, she meditated slowly.

Run into your own sweet memories.

At the very least, I want to be able to breathe with happy memories.

But the pain never came.

Instead, the screams rose.

It didn't leak out of my throat.

- So, whose is it?

When I opened my fearful eyes, the knights fell at my feet.

And in front of him stood a big man.

Instead of coming towards us, turn your back on Sonia and try to protect her from those who are trying to attack her.

Someone was at the root of Sonia's obsession.
