◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

This was another unexpected event.

Since I couldn’t possibly tell everyone about this, I quietly summoned only Commander Yuren, Cluna, and Bayard.

I asked Clara and Helia to keep an eye on Ruby.

After confirming through the window that Ruby, Clara, and Helia were training hard in the courtyard, I turned my head.

The figures of those I had called arrived in my sight.

Needless to say, Commander Yuren and Cluna, and even Bayard could be considered high-ranking members of the Royal Knights.

That was why I had called these three.

Looking at them, I said.

“You’ve finally arrived.”

“What’s the unexpected problem?”

“C-Could it be that the beastmen again…?”

“No, it’s not that.”

The 12 tribes had been very quiet recently, I was told.

Rather, they were in the process of negotiating peace with other races, including elves and beastmen.

However, the problem had arisen elsewhere.

“I thought everything had been resolved well. But… it seems there was still a knot that hadn’t been untied.”

“An untied knot… what exactly?”

“I’ll explain that.”

Commander Yuren, who had been listening silently beside me, stepped forward.

Cluna and Bayard’s gazes focused on Commander Yuren.

She took out a parchment from her bosom.

“This letter is from the Dwarf Republic.”

“The Dwarf Republic?”

“B-But I thought the problem had been resolved…”

“It was, until this letter arrived.”

“What kind of letter could it be to cause this?”

“Balak Ruby has escaped from prison.”

[T/N: i just felt i should add this little explanation in since i think the author has a naming scheme going on: the name “Balak” means “Empty or Waste” the name comes from a rarely used hebrew verb. I think its funny cuz hes a piece of shit lol]

Balak Ruby.

The owner of the Ruby, one of the four gems supporting the Dwarf Republic, and Ruby’s father, a member of the Royal Knights.

Thinking about it, something had felt strange.

Ruby was one of the four gems supporting the Dwarf Republic.

In other words, it was the family name.

This meant that the current Ruby only had a surname, but no given name.

What could that mean?

It was one of two things.

Either she never received a name from the beginning, or she had discarded her name.

It’s not like her name would be Ruby Ruby, right?

I clicked my tongue with my arms crossed.

“It seems he broke through the Dwarf Republic’s strict security and escaped.”

“Is that possible?”

“It shouldn’t be. Not for an ordinary dwarf.”

“You mean…”

“Yes, as of now… Balak Ruby has turned into a monster.”

Monsters, beings who received power from demons and turned into beasts.

There were rare cases like the doppelganger we met before who became demons, but usually, they fell to become monsters.

“How did he come into contact with demons? The Republic is investigating that, they say.”

“It’s likely he was in contact with demons from the beginning.”

“That’s probably it.”

“T-Then that means he had been hiding the contract…”

“…”

Needless to say, Commander Yuren and Cluna, and even Bayard could be called veterans without lacking.

With these women putting their heads together, it wouldn’t be difficult to deduce.

What was I doing, you ask?

Just watching.

When such intelligent and experienced people were talking, it would be fortunate if I didn’t mess things up by butting in unnecessarily.

“What does the Commander think?”

“Hmm! I’d like to hear the Commander’s thoughts too.”

“I-I think it’s important.”

And I was paying the price for that in real-time.

Damn it, I hadn’t heard a single thing from start to finish.

I racked my brains so hard I felt smoke might start rising.

“Whatever the plan, we need to know what Balak Ruby is after first.”

“That’s right. And that… might be Ruby, I think.”

“Why do you think so?”

“It’s a hunch. A dragon’s intuition.”

“W-When you put it that way, we can’t ignore it.”

Fortunately, it seemed I hadn’t disrupted the flow of conversation.

They naturally received and passed on my words.

Thanks to that, I was barely able to feel relieved.

Why were they paying attention to me?

Just handle it yourselves, please.

I’m of no help at all even if I’m here, you know?

As I was thinking that and casually looked out the window, that’s when I discovered something floating in the sky.

At first, I thought it was an eagle, but it was too large to be an eagle.

It was about the size of a small airship from another game.

Clearly not an ordinary beast, it fell from the sky at an incredibly fast speed.

Its target was singular.

Ruby, who was training in the courtyard.

The moment I recognized this, I unconsciously stopped time.

As my index and middle fingers collided, everything around turned gray and stopped moving, and I could see it.

Ruby caught in its talons.

If left alone, she would be flown away beyond the sky.

If that happened, there would be no way to chase after her.

Commander Yuren might be a way, but that would be too taxing for her.

I had heard that even returning to her original form was burdensome for her since the heart incident.

So unless absolutely necessary, we were trying to avoid having her transform into her original form.

Anyway, I didn’t want to use her transformation for something like this, so I decided to handle it myself somehow.

First, I grabbed my sword, quickly ran down the stairs to the courtyard.

“It would have been nice if I could have jumped out the window…!!!”

If I had done that and broken my legs, it would have been all for nothing!

So I safely ran down the stairs.

That was the normal thing to do anyway.

Once I arrived at the courtyard, I quickly drew my sword and struck down hard.

Of course, as expected.

The monster’s foot wasn’t cut by my sword.

Judging by how much the blade bit in, it was much better than the man-eating girl I had faced before.

If that was the case, there was only one method left.

“It’s fortunate that this is home ground.”

Another difficult fight was about to begin, but right now this was Lionheart Fortress.

Naturally, there were far more means available now than before.

What did that mean?

I retrieved a tool from the storage in the corner of the courtyard.

Among them was a saw used for cutting trees.

Using this saw, I should be able to cut off its ankle without much difficulty.

Of course, after using it, I had to put it back in the storage.

That way, it would look like I had cut it with my own skill.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

“Come to think of it, Ruby often follows Clara around.”

That was just a comment meant to divert attention, but it was half-true.

To Helia, Ruby seemed to strongly give off the impression of following someone she liked.

“What are you talking about?!”

“Yeah! I’m really getting angry now!”

“Well, isn’t it true?”

Normally she would have backed down, but Helia had already been asked by Teach to keep Ruby’s attention away from this direction as much as possible.

That was why she used any means necessary, but it was also true.

Ruby and Clara often fought, but if you looked closely, they were always together.

The reason was that Ruby often followed Clara around.

It seemed the aggro had been properly drawn.

Ruby desperately denied the fact.

Beside her, Clara was also desperately denying it.

Just as Helia was thinking they disliked it that much.

“…What?!”

Among them, only Helia sensed its presence.

Suddenly, its talons came down from the sky and snatched Ruby.

As a result, her reaction was a bit late.

She wasn’t sure yet if it was an eagle or what, but she couldn’t just leave it be.

If that happened, Teacher would be sad.

So, just as she was about to draw her sword.

Suddenly, the ankle of the thing that had firmly grasped Ruby was cut off, bleeding.

Thanks to that, Ruby was barely able to be freed from its talons.

Clara rushed to Ruby urgently.

“Ruby! Are you okay?!”

“I-I’m fine.”

“What on earth is that?!”

“Focus. It’s not over yet.”

At Helia’s cold words, Clara and Ruby came to their senses and drew their weapons.

In front of them stood a man.

Looking at that sturdy back, Helia smiled.

As expected of Teacher.

He was the only one among those gathered here who had reacted.

This meant that Teacher’s skills were the most excellent.

It might seem like Helia’s biased thinking but Clara and Ruby were thinking similarly.

Because they could see Yuren, Cluna, and Bayard belatedly coming out to the courtyard.

Ruby clutched her trembling chest with her hand.

‘I didn’t notice until I was directly caught?!’

It wasn’t that its speed was particularly fast as proof of that, Helia had been able to react.

However, the scariest thing was its presence.

); }

Even though it was right in front of them now, it felt like a ghost, with no sense of presence at all.

It felt as if there was nothing there if you took your eyes off it.

Such a crazy sense of discomfort kept tormenting their minds.

That was probably why those three hadn’t reacted, but how did the Commander react?

Such a question crossed Ruby’s mind briefly, but she soon smiled and dismissed her doubt.

Because the Commander was the Commander.

Nothing he did was surprising anymore.
