Became the Escort Knight That the Princesses Were Obsessed With

82. Visit to the princess (1)

Is it because Hammus’ attack shook the underground city?

Lydian knights waiting on the ground also began to move.

The sound of cold steel boots coming from the exit.

Thanks to that sound, I went up to the pavilion.

“….”

The prince stared at the blade that had arrived right in front of his nose.

Then, he spoke in a calm voice.

“I will not surrender.”

Looks more calm than expected.

He looked down at the fallen commander and knights and said.

“What can I do by myself now?”

The prince shrugged his shoulders proudly.

As if there were no regrets whatsoever.

‘It’s a shame. If you resist, they beat you to death.’

I turned my head with a disapproving expression.

And then I looked at the princess’s knights as they entered the city.

A group of people wading through the collapsed buildings and approaching the pavilion.

Among them, there was a girl who disguised herself as a lover.

“Ha, you’ve decorated this gloomy place well.”

Lydia, alone with her arms crossed, waved her palms and dusted his hands.

And then, she snorted as she looked at the large amount of treasure visible between the collapsed buildings.

“I wondered where the treasures that had been plundered so far had gone…. “It’s hidden in a place like this.”

The princess clicked her tongue with an expression of disgust.

And then, knocking off her shoes, she arrived in front of us.

“….”

The princess coldly looks down at her own brother with her red eyes.

At that gaze, Hakim raised the corner of her mouth.

“It’s been a while, Lydia.”

The princess made no reply.

She just keeps her face straight.

“You have become a full-fledged lady in a time when I haven’t seen you in a while.”

Hakim looked down at his brother from top to bottom.

A black dress that exposes her shoulders and a body line that stands out.

He was surprised and laughed.

“But, you are closer to a lady than a monarch. “You look perfect for someone who just got married.”

Even though he was defeated, he is still a relaxed prince.

Lydia took a long stride towards him.

And….

aaak￣￣￣!!

A strong slap was struck on the cheek of a relative.

Hakim was hit so hard that her face turned away.

He was trembling under his eyes.

“Shut up, Hakim.”

From me to Lydia.

When I called his name as if I were looking at a bug, he frowned.

“….”

When the prince became quiet, Lydia approached me.

And then, she looked up at me with a cold expression.

‘What is it? ‘What did I do wrong?’

I swallowed deeply and waited for her to speak.

“Why didn’t you use the necklace I gave you?”

“You mean the necklace?”

The princess pointed to the wound on my cheek with her finger.

“Her face got scarred from holding on alone.”

“I’m sorry. However, in order to fight effectively….”

Lydia cut me off and shoved me in the face.

Thanks to this, the downy hair on her fair face caught her eye.

“He already has a lot of scars on his body.”

The princess stretched out her soft fingers.

She then wiped away my blood running down the tip of her chin.

“If you treat your body so harshly, you won’t be able to get married.”

The Eastern Knights all look at us.

They were wide-eyed at the sight of the princess caring so deeply for a mere knight.

“If one more wound occurs here, it won’t be noticeable.”

I was burdened by those gazes, so I tried to smile and put my face away.

The princess also cleared her throat, perhaps feeling the gaze of her subordinates.

“Anyway, you had a hard time. Bale Mikhail.”

And then, he spoke again in a voice worthy of a monarch.

“I’ll take care of the rest of his troops.”

“No. “Everyone has already surrendered.”

I shook my head and said it was okay.

Then, Lydia’s eyes twitch.

“You surrendered?”

“Yes, because Captain Hammus is dead.”

With the sheath of his sword, he pointed to a large figure lying in the middle of the underground city.

The ground fell on his body as if a meteor had fallen.

“Surely you killed the Dongbu leader?”

Lydia heard about Hammus’ fame from a young age.

She looked so surprised that her pigtails stood up.

“It just happened to be like that.”

I answered, handing the prince over to Tau and Bashu.

However, he remained calm even after losing everything.

Instead, he ignored them and muttered.

“Maybe because it’s underground, the air is thick.”

And then, I tried to confidently go out into the passage.

“Let’s go out now. “I also want to get some fresh air after a long time.”

The princess and I stared at Hakim like that.

“That bastard. “Why are you so proud?”

“Even if you did something like this, you can just return to your home country.”

When the empire entered into a political marriage with the eastern kingdom of Samad, it made one promise.

Unless an incident occurred between other members of the royal family, all crimes were decided to be tried in the eastern region.

Thanks to this, we have never been able to hold him responsible for the property or people he stole.

That’s why he was proud even though he was tyrannical when he reigned as the monarch of the East.

“The string is too tight. “Leave it a little looser-.”

Hakim complained to Tau and Batshu.

“We need a way to detain him until evidence comes out….”

Lydia flashed her red eyes.

And she stared with a cruel expression.

“Should we just kill him by accident?”

When the prince heard those words, he turned around as if dancing.

“You’re such a big family, Lydia.”

Then, she started talking with a pitiful expression, as if she was teasing her younger brother.

“Do you think the vassals of your home country would believe you even if you were killed by accident?”

The eastern prince knows his position very well.

He spoke to us with the utmost arrogance.

“Insolent bastard.”

The princess also walks through numerous territories and knights.

As for her family, there was nothing they could do.

I looked at the two royal families alternately.

Lydia looks like she’s going to kill Hakim the moment she takes him out.

Of course, it is a good method, but as the prince said, it can lead to regrets.

“….”

I quietly looked for a way to deal with him alone.

Then, one thing about the princess came to mind.

‘Incidents that arise between members of the royal family can be handled by the empire.’

What if, among all the crimes he committed, there was even one thing that caused harm to the royal family?

He can rot in prison for the rest of his life.

“Her Royal Highness, please wait a moment.”

He called Lydia, who was planning to kill Hakim.

And, she spoke confidently.

“What’s going on?”

“There might still be a way to deal with this guy.”

I left those words and headed to his collapsed warehouse.

Golden treasures can be seen shining through the ruins of the building.

Most of the gold and safe boxes are of unknown origin, meaning they were exploited from the people.

But.

‘Did they really only pick on commoners and rob them?’

I pushed aside the ordinary treasures and went deeper into the building.

And….

I finally found a box so colorful that the corners of my mouth turned up.

Although it is small in size, it has a stylish appearance with the ‘Golden Lion’ seal attached.

These were items belonging to someone I know very well.

“I’m bored, how much longer do I have to wait?”

Hakim yawned and twitched his eyes.

And then, I looked at him indifferently as he came back carrying a platinum box.

“What is that?”

The same goes for others.

Everyone looked closely at the items I brought.

“What?”

I smiled brightly at everyone.

And, as a matter of fact, it is the symbol of the first princess of the empire.

A platinum box with a golden lion on it was placed on the floor.

“It’s the 1st princess’s property that you stole.”

If it were any other royal family, they would have scoured the East to find lost items.

However, Leah seems to have forgotten because she has a lot of assets and is busy.

“I should have bought it in moderation. “How dare you rob other royal family members’ property?”

The First Princess’ box proudly appeared in Hakim’s underground city.

And, everyone here witnessed it clearly with their own eyes.

‘Clear evidence, numerous witnesses.’

Only then did Hakim’s eyes begin to flutter.

Because he was well aware of Leah’s immense power and fear.

“What do you mean?”

Hakim completely denied it.

“I never ordered you to rob the royal family’s belongings.”

The prince looked at his suppressed troops.

They all lowered their heads and glanced at Hakim.

“That means they did it arbitrarily!”

Hakim pointed at them with a straight face.

Then, some knights refuted Hakim, who pushed them away until the end.

“We did not steal that item.”

Then they began to rebel.

All the loyalists who followed him have already fallen like a leader.

“These are plunder given by bandits on the eastern border in return for permission to plunder!”

This is the moment when the reason why the prince dared to keep Leah’s things is revealed.

“Ha, now I can’t believe I’m being abandoned even by my subordinates.”

Lydia, who was watching this skit from the side, snorted.

“Good. “Secretary, go and call Leah.”

The princess sat on the leather chair prepared by the knights.

Then, she crossed her legs sensually and spoke leisurely.

“There is a thief here who stole your things.”

Lydia rested her chin on one of her arms.

Afterwards, she smiled her eyes with a relaxed expression.

“He allowed the thieves to rob the royal family’s carriage and even took possession of the stolen goods.”

The red eyes of the Eastern monarch burned like a wild beast.

“In addition to this, there will be a series of evil acts that have caused damage to the empire.”

Intense eyes that never let go of their prey.

There was no way that Hakim, her compatriot, would not know that look in her eyes.

“If you add all these crimes together, you will spend at least 30 years in a dungeon.”

“Lee, Lydia….”

Unlike before, the prince looked quite embarrassed.

He slowly approached the princess who sat arrogantly on her chair.

“Are you going to entrust the trial of your own flesh and blood to someone else’s hands?”

Hakim carefully bent his knees.

And I earnestly asked with trembling pupils.

“I promise. “I will definitely return to my home country and be humbly punished!”

My brother is 3 years older than me.

Even the prince, the ruler of the East, bows down to his younger brother.

“We are family! “We’ve grown up together our whole lives!”

However, she didn’t care.

She responded in her own cold tone that only comes out when she is serious.

“Family?”

The princess pinched her dress draped over her shoulders with her fingers.

And she neatly tidied up.

“What kind of family would mobilize others to stab them in the back?”

Because Hakim was already worth less than the hem of her clothes.

“The moment I thought that, our blood relationship ended.”

The princess turned her head.

After that, she smiled her eyes when she looked at me.

“And, I can make a family without you.”

Lydia tilts her head with mischievous eyes like a cow devil.

Deoksun’s pigtails also fluttered.

“Big…”

I turned her head to avoid her gaze.

And while her knights watched Hakim, she withdrew, pretending to examine the box.

“I’ll take a moment to check for stolen goods.”

A strong security spell appears.

At this level, I suspect that it contains a high-end artifact such as a wand.

There must be a reason why they couldn’t open it even after getting it.

While the Eastern Knights had Hakim tightly bound and under guard, they reached into her box.

And then, the magic was forcibly dismantled using golden mana.

Rattle.

The box was opened.

I secretly opened the lid while everyone was focused on Hakim.

“Are they books…? ?”

The box was filled with tactical books that were boring to look at.

But.

As I rummaged inside, a book that was packaged quite luxuriously caught my eye.

As if the rest of the books were for camouflage.

“Slave knight of the Grand Duchess of the North….”

I tilted my head at the familiar and ordinary cover.

Because I definitely saw it in Leah’s bedroom.

“But why buy the same book twice?”

Thinking for a moment.

I realized the special meaning of this book.

A seal engraved very secretly in the corner of the book.

Because this is what was written on the seal.
