After the fourth prince stepped down, the biggest suspense changed from whether he had done those dirty things that were revealed by the seventh princess to who would have the crucial power he left behind.

If there are no accidents, everyone should have a small portion except the sixth princess who is seriously ill and cannot go out.

However, there were two princes who couldn't sit still - they actually didn't just invite each other, they made a challenge to everyone, but they were the only ones who came.

As the "most skilled in fighting", the seventh prince has made meritorious service in the army, but his brain is a bit difficult...

as well as……

The most favored one was even considered to be the eighth prince who would be directly passed on to the throne by His Majesty Edward out of love.

Although his greatest advantage is that he is "loved", he can be regarded as a "military man" who has performed many times in public with Entak's standard sword style.

They set foot on the "dueling field" for this matter.Of course, the result in the duel did not represent how much power they would be able to share in the end. This was not a duel approved by His Majesty Edward, who was seriously ill.

However, the victory or defeat on the scene may represent the rising arrogance of a certain person, causing the subordinates to side with one side.

They are like peacocks spreading their feathers in front of their father, not wanting to miss any opportunity to show off their feathers in order to get a chance to breathe in the struggle.

Therefore, almost all the royal families who were able to go out came.

"Treya..."

"It's better to call me sister outside."

"Why don't you go up? You are very smart, very... understand the devil, and also know Entak's swordsmanship very well. If you want to win the first place in the duel, you are definitely the most suitable."

"Will...Will once told me that it was very dangerous..."

There was no tremor in Thereya's voice - after all, she had always spoken like this, so coldly toneless.

However, from her pauses and repeated muttered words, and her slightly trembling right hand holding the sword, one could feel that she was different from usual.

"Why do you always listen to him..."

Before Eugenie could finish her words, she was interrupted by the sounds of a duel below——

"Look, look, look - just with your swordsmanship and no swordsmanship that has been practiced in actual combat, you still want to defeat me?"

It was the voice made by the seventh prince. His voice was loud, much louder than when the two of them spoke harsh words before.

Even more terrifying is...

As Eugenie, who has experience in Ntak's swordsmanship, she could tell at a glance that the Seventh Prince's swordsmanship incorporated too many angry emotions, and the sword was swung extremely fast, completely...

It’s completely a way to put the other party to death!

"He is crazy, crazy with revenge, desire and resentment, which will eventually lead to..."

"what--!!!"

"There are people injured!"

Before Treya finished her words, there was a scream. On the field, the Eighth Prince could not resist. He was picked up by the opponent and slashed from the left eye, causing blood to fly.

"They should call it quits."

"The Seventh Prince has given instructions that this duel will not be suspended. Sure enough, it is as he said."

"...'Someone' just wants to destroy the opponent. In a duel, any small friction that occurs can be regarded as an 'accident'..."

In the empty duel field, the seventh prince approached step by step the eighth prince, who was kneeling on the ground with his eyes covered.

"Hahahahaha, right - look, you are such a useless waste. A person like you still wants to get recognition from his father?! It's impossible. Before he dies, I must prove... "

"I'm better than you, a arrogant guy like you...?!"

However, the moment he approached, the sword on the opposite side flashed past his right arm from an angle that was not easy to approach from bottom to top.

What he saw was a rarely seen look in the opposite eye that refused to give up, admit defeat, or show weakness.

"Yes...really? Then what should I say? Brother..."

"Stop, don't let the two of them fight!"

"Yes, yes, where are the priests and doctors?!"

The scene was in chaos, and the princesses and princes who were watching from the royal family also looked for opportunities to stand up.

There was only chaos in the duel field. Now everyone knew that in this fratricide, the two people who were injured were the ones who left the field.

But only Eugenie looked at Thereya beside her with wide eyes.

Eugenie felt something was very wrong with her.

It seems to exude a "fragile" and dangerous atmosphere.

"Sure enough...it's just like what Will said...it's very dangerous..."

"Shouldn't get closer."

Chapter 231 The non-existent future

"I'm more curious about..."

"Why is her left eye... wearing an eyepatch in your fearful image?"

In fact, Lucifer didn't even need to ask.

When Will first saw Treya in fear, he thought about this problem for a moment.

But he soon realized the answer to his question.

This is what he "feares" in his heart, and what he fears is precisely the "future" in which the three girls become "lost dogs".

In... that future...

Treya looks exactly like that.

"If I tell you, you won't believe it."

"Huh? So what is it? You are totally appetizing!"

Lucifer angrily took away part of the salad on his plate.

"Then I won't let you eat this!"

However, Shona was very calm and cut off a piece of "mutton" from her plate and put it on Will's plate.

"Is it... the picture you saw in the dream that symbolizes the 'future'?"

Will was overwhelmed by the wonderful scene of these two people grabbing and giving each other.

"Yeah. As expected, you are more understanding, Xiuna."

"So, let's talk about it."

Lucifer put the vegetables back on the plate as if she were a bribe again.

Will pulled that memory out of his brain——

This is probably what happened between "Treya was defeated by the undead swordsman" and "the Entark Empire was overthrown".

"In the dream... after the death of His Majesty Edward, an actual 'duel' began between the various heirs of the royal family - of course, only those who are good at Entak swordsmanship were included."

According to the original work, after the death of the fourth prince, the various princesses and princes in the royal family who were good at martial arts divided his military power.

But after the death of the king, this result led to a "duel" that wanted to use the "accident" to throw everyone else out.

In the original work, Treya walked into the duel with a desire for revenge against Eugenie.

"In that duel, her left eye was injured by her opponent, the Seventh Prince. As a result, she had to wear an eyepatch to cover up her blind left eye."

At the same time, Treya, who withdrew from the battle to recuperate from her injuries, left the capital, but ended up becoming the only member of the royal family to survive after the revolutionary army entered the capital.

After experiencing this incident, she left a hidden thread of "Princess's Revenge". She was reconnected with the main plot as a changed loser, which was better than the other two losers who were still disconnected.

This series of events was very well written in the original work, coherently describing the ugliness of the Entak royal family that had been foreshadowing, and adding a lot of ink to Treya's battle and mood.

but……

The only problem is...

Some parts of this plot look like...

The jealousy of this handsome scene of "a pure white half-elf putting on a blindfold and embarking on the road to regain his family's mission" made this series of dumplings.

Of course, the illustrations are still beautiful.Therea stood in the moonlight wearing an eye patch, with her silver hair blown by the wind, giving her a sense of fragility and perseverance at the same time.

"I see, that's why she doesn't have an eyepatch before her eyes are injured."

Lucifer nodded, accepting Will's explanation that sounded a bit random without any doubt or obstacle.

Is this the queen of the dungeon?

"So...you are in a hurry to get to the capital..."

"To save my life."

——From what happened with Leah, he knew that being caught unprepared by a yandere would lead to death.

——So, he wants to use his actions to influence Treya from now on.

——As long as he responds to her feelings and touches her, he won't be tied up and imprisoned like Leah that time.

"Ok?"

Lucifer said simply, but it contained a complex question of "Do you want to see what you are talking about?"

"Uh... to... to save her. Or rather, to stop her from being like that - is this an acceptable answer?"

However, wearing an eyepatch, she must be in a "future that does not exist".

Although Will has calculated that by that time, he should have sacrificed his life and become the biggest comedian in the book.

but……

Will will teach her how to survive in such a royal family, teach the pure white little princess how to dye herself black, and teach her to stay away from that dangerous "duel" from the beginning.

The more I know about her life and experiences, the more I pity her - that's probably how I feel.

Therefore, he would not leave Treya like this alone and choose to escape. He would definitely go to the capital to help Treya, who sounded helpless and panicked in the "Missing Person Notice" and in everyone's mouth.

"After all, she should be deep in the quagmire of the royal family's mess. She is trying to climb up, but she will only sink deeper and deeper."

Will looked at the light reflected on the table, just like Treya's shining left eye.

"It would be great if...if in that future, there could be a qualified 'counselor' by her side to help her. If not, let me do it."

"……All right."

Lucifer took a sip of the drink. Although it looked like wine, it was probably just grape juice—maybe not even grape juice, but red water created by her illusion.

"How should I put it? At first, I thought you were really not a good person, and you were just joking about your feelings. But... in 'Fear', your performance was indeed true, and you were very sincere."

"I am so touched to be recognized by the spiritual empress."

"Of course, it's the same for all three of them, you scumbag."

"puff."

Shona next to her laughed.

"Hey hey-"

"But, I don't know why, but I always feel like... you don't seem to be going to save that princess."

Shona was speechless as she spoke. She seemed to be unable to think of any adjectives. She put the fork in her mouth and bit her while looking at the chandelier in Castlevania.

"Xuna, do you also doubt my purpose? You should understand that I am very pure! Although it is precisely because of my purity that I want everything."

"No, it's just... probably because I have fought against the witch before. I always feel that things are not that simple..."

Will felt a little uneasy when he heard Shona's unclear meaning.

"So, is it your intuition?"

"I always feel that in my eyes, you two are more like..." than a savior and a princess to be rescued..."

Shona put down her fork, as if to make the following sentence more serious——

"Chess players playing on opposite sides of the board."

"Ok?"

"How should I put it? Look, don't some people often describe some people's love as more like a duel? I think your current behavior is very similar to this."

Will never expected this description.
