Vol 3: Chapter 49

Damnit! Half of my body had gone numb. It felt as if the blood circulation in my body had deteriorated. The left half of my body was slumped on the floor.

「Thief, stay away from Her Highness! –Your Highness?! Please get away from there!」

Her Highness Anastasia moved in front of me to protect me.

Right, I’m dressed like a thief right now…

「Y-Your Highness… I know her… my face…」

My tongue was also numb and I couldn’t speak properly. Even though Polina-san would understand that this was a misunderstanding.

No–wait a minute. Why is Polina-san here?

She did seem acquainted with Her Highness Anastasia from the start, though…

「Your Highness!」

Polina-san approached closer determinedly. At the same time, I heard commotion from the hallway. I guess it is only normal if you hear the sound of glass breaking.

「Anastasia-sama. What happened?」A voice called out accompanied by rough knocking on the door.

Aren’t I in a pretty perilous situation…?

「Your Highness. Why is someone who inherited the noble blood of the High Elves protecting a thief?」

「…………」

Should I use magic? No, I can’t collect my mana because of the paralysis.

With no paper or pen at hand, Her Highness could not write and only protected me. Oh right, there should be a medicine in the tool bag that would eliminate toxins in the body. I tried to move my right hand towards the tool bag, but–

「Ah!!」

My hand was stepped on! Ouuuuchh!

「!」

Her Highness jumped at Polina-san’s leg, as if tackling, but Polina-san pulled her leg and dodged.

「Y-Your Highness…? What happened to you? Just who is this person…?」

Polina-san finally saw my face, which only the area around the eyes was not covered.

「!? No way, you are…」

She noticed?

It’s true that the room is dim and you can’t see well, but…

My black eyes should be easy to understand.

「Your Highness! We’re coming in!」

Accompanied by that voice, thick banging sounds came from the door. Eventually the door broke inwards, and the bright light from the hallway shined in. It seems that they forcibly destroyed the door with a sledgehammer.

Startled, Polina-san escaped through the window at a tremendous speed.

…W-Wait, wait, wait a minute! Don’t leave me!

Three fully armed Lev soldiers stepped into the room. One of them was a rugged man carrying a large sledge hammer lightly. An intensely bright magic lamp illuminated me and Her Highness.

「——」

Her Highness opened her mouth at that time.

Flames were lit in her right hand.

…Crap! This is not good!

Her Highness still cannot control her mana. If she tries to use【Fire Magic】too soon after acquiring【Mana Control】, this whole place will turn into a sea of ​​fire.

I stretched out my right hand, covered Her Highness mouth, and pulled her closer.

「!」

That pose was almost like hugging Her Highness from behind, but I can’t let her become a murderer.

「!?!?!?」

Her Highness Anastasia turning beet red, and looking flustered was adorable, but–

「THIEF!!!」

「KILL HIM!!!」

「PURSHAAAAA!!!」

The three soldiers flipped out. The soldier brandishing a giant sledgehammer sounded particularly dangerous.

I hurriedly reached for the tool bag and pulled out the medicine. My fingertips went numb and dropped the small bottle, but Her Highness noticed it. “Is this a medicine?” she asked with her eyes, and I nodded. Her Highness removed the lid and fed the medicine to my mouth. I felt hot, as if my body temperature shot up instantly.

「Your Highness, please step away!!!」

The three soldiers rushed at us.

…If I can somehow buy more time, the medicine will complete its work and I should be able to escape.

「PURSHAAAA!!!!」

Or it may not be possible!? That guy swinging the sledgehammer, is seriously trying to kill me, right!?

Only a few more meters left. Her Highness is protecting me by embracing tightly. Oh shit, what do I do?!

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!

At that moment, a loud alarm sound pierced my ear.

I thought that my trespassing had been found out, but the soldiers stopped with a startled look on their faces.

『Emergency alert. An airship of unknown affiliation has appeared in the airspace of the Imperial City. High possibility of armed conflict. Combatants should move to Type 1 alert. This is not a drill. I repeat–』

Beyond the window, a number of searchlights reached out to the skies of the Lev Magic Empire.

I saw it as I lay on the floor of Her Highness’ bedroom.

The searchlights illuminated a streamlined silver color airship—”Queen of the Night”.

The flight of “Queen of the Night” did not seem stable. The turrets fired as the airship swayed unsteadily.

It’s heading over here?!!

A huge fireball was shot. Drawing an arc in the air, the fireball landed outside the wall, exploding on impact and causing a shock wave that shook the whole mansion.
