“Without further ado, since it’s an order from the higher-ups, let’s hurry up and get going.” “Understood, Subaru-sama.
I’ve already contacted the nearest carriage, and we’ll be leaving in about five minutes.” Seeing Kenma rush out of the backyard in a hurry, Reinhard scratched his head in confusion, then continued tidying up the messy ground.
Subaru-sama is great in every way.
It’s just that no matter how you look at it, he seems a bit impatient when doing things.
Never mind, perhaps this is just the unique personality of a successor.
As a knight, I just need to do my own job well.
After returning to his room, Kenma sat on the bed and began to calculate his next plan.
First, according to the plot in the original work, those oldies of the Council of Wise Men have basically been controlled by the Sin Archbishop of Lust, Capella Emerada Lugunica.
In other words, the current Royal Capital is completely dictated by her.
If that’s the case…
Kenma’s lips curved up slightly, and he already had a brand-new plan in mind.
He wanted to see what kind of reaction those old fogies and Capella hidden behind the scenes would have if he turned the entire Royal Capital upside down.
— The inner area of the Royal Capital.
Stepping down from the dragon carriage, Kenma strode forward with big steps, while Reinhard played the role of a loyal knight, following behind to guard him.
“Subaru-sama, when the meeting is held later, according to the instructions transmitted this time, as a knight, I cannot enter to listen in with you.
You must go in alone, this is the order of the Council of Wise Men.” “In addition, although I don’t know what happened, this meeting has undergone major changes.
Bringing weapons into the meeting site is not allowed, and the sword hanging at your waist cannot be brought in either.” While saying these words, Reinhard’s face showed some hesitation.
Obviously, he didn’t know what the purpose of these new orders from the Council of Wise Men was either.
After hearing all the new orders, Kenma just sneered silently.
Great, you really don’t want to act anymore.
Not allowed to carry weapons, not allowed to enter with accompanying knights, entering the conference room all alone.
However, even though he had seen through the thoughts of those old things and the person behind the scenes, Kenma had no intention of looking for another way.
Not for anything else, just because that is the mindset of the weak.
A true powerhouse must forge ahead bravely.
At worst, he can just die a few times and keep pushing through until he clears it.
As for why he didn’t die at Reinhard’s hands hundreds or thousands of times to grind up his attributes before setting off, the reason was very simple.
Reinhard doesn’t kill people.
After becoming Reinhard’s master, Kenma could basically confirm that the route of being killed by Reinhard was blocked.
Just as he was pondering, a male voice rang out abruptly in his ear.
“Reinhard, is this person the final royal selection candidate, Natsuki Subaru-sama?” Kenma raised his head and saw a young man standing ahead, also dressed in clean white knight attire, with a full head of purple hair and eyelashes so long they didn’t look like a man’s.
Seeing Kenma look over, Julius crossed his right foot behind his left foot and placed his right hand on his chest.
“Subaru-sama, I am Julius Juukulius of the Royal Guard, please take care of me.” While speaking, Julius was also observing all aspects of Kenma, feeling somewhat shocked in his heart.
Although I’ve been hearing rumors these past two days, I didn’t expect the last royal selection candidate to actually be a male.
Aren’t there five Dragon Priestesses?
Although he was puzzled, the proper etiquette must never be lacking.
This was the knightly etiquette and life creed that Julius had practiced throughout his life so far.
As if thinking of something, Kenma’s expression suddenly became a bit strange, and he couldn’t help asking, “Then please take care of me well.
May I ask a question?” “Please go ahead.
As long as it doesn’t involve confidential matters, I will tell you everything I know.” “What is your sexual orientation?” As soon as these words came out, Julius’s expression stiffened, and his originally flawless bowing posture distorted slightly.
Reinhard, standing beside him, couldn’t help shifting his gaze over, then quickly looked away.
Facing Kenma’s burning gaze, Julius gave an awkward smile.
“Subaru-sama, although I haven’t been in any romantic relationships so far, nor do I have thoughts about romance between men and women in my heart, I suppose my sexual orientation should still lean towards ordinary men.” “Hiss…
This is not what I heard.” “What did you say?” “It’s nothing.
Keep it up, and I wish you find the romance you’ve been looking for soon.
I’ll be going first.
Reinhard, you don’t need to see me off.” “Understood.” Watching Kenma’s retreating figure, a drop of sweat seeped from Julius’s forehead, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He doesn’t seem like an easy master to get along with.
What kind of person asks such an extremely offensive question upon first meeting?
Leaving Reinhard and Julius to reminisce over there, Kenma walked forward alone, with his greatsword still slung at his waist.
Before long, he had arrived in front of a resplendent and large door.
Even through the door, relying on his formidable hearing, he could vaguely sense that there were numerous breathing sounds inside.
Tsk, the more I look at it, the more it looks like they want to kill me.
So now, there is only one last security check left.
That is to check where the previous save point of Return by Death is located.
Thinking of this, Kenma unhesitatingly drew the greatsword from his waist and slashed toward his own neck.
The next second, blood spurted, and a head flew high into the air.
Kenma watched his headless corpse fall, doing his utmost to suppress the self-healing instinct coming from his body.
Accompanied by the rapid darkening of his vision, the last thing Kenma’s head floating in the air saw was a fiery red figure rushing over rapidly from a distance.
The next second, Kenma died.
…
[Ding!
Detected that the host is committing suicide, Avenger trigger failed, unable to obtain free attribute points] Kenma opened his eyes, finding himself standing in front of that resplendent door.
Holy crap!
This time’s save point is actually just one second ago?
