Arte stuffed up in Las Carlos.

"Oh, I'm the traitor? That can't be right!?

Lascaros answered the question chilly.

"Master Arte hurt his innocent companions and disobeyed the will of the great captain Sophia. They're even trying to get us into a reckless Necropolis offensive operation and send us to the dead. Not calling this betrayal, what is betrayal?

Lascaros was only laid back against the rugged Arte.

And Lascaros fell on one knee and finally gave a toast to the Virgin Sophia.

"Our chief Virgin. Even if you are retired, for us there is only one Knights of St. Sophia leader, you alone. If enemies show up to you, we'll rush for them soon."

Lascaros originally belonged to another adventurer party in the Imperial City.

But he came out with some of his companions and joined the Knights of St. Sophia, not so long after his formation.

The reason for this is that when we attacked difficult ruins near the Imperial capital at multiple parties, the Lascaros who were working together were seriously injured.

At that time, it was the Virgin Sophia who saved the lives of Las Carlos.

Then the Lascaros joined the Knights of St. Sophia and created the Imperial Branch.

For this reason, the members of the Imperial Branch have a strong loyalty to Sofia.

Previously, when the Empress Philia was exposed to the Federation of Foreigners, I also thought about asking the Knights Empire Metropolitan Branch for help.

But then I was banished. I was the only one, so I gave up command of the Imperial Branch.

Not now.

Virgin Sophia is with me.

So it was easy to use the glory of Sophia to make the people of the Imperial Branch obey.

The suburbs with this mansion were, in fact, quite close to the imperial branch.

And even though it was impossible for the members of the Imperial Branch to be under Sofia's guard for twenty-four hours, they had asked ahead of time to rush to this mansion if anything happened.

If I had bought time, I would have had more allies.

This was the line of my other favor, alongside the kingdom.

There is no law that you should only use your own power to win the battle.

Anything you can use is a spirit of use.

The defeat of the Artes was originally obvious, but now, there really is no longer any possibility of a reversal.

Arte distorted his face and shouted with trembling.

"I'm not wrong! How can I lose when it is righteous for the powerful to use their power correctly!? Why do I have to beat such a mediocre magic swordsman!?

"That's because Mr. Alte doesn't know anything important."

I heard a beautiful voice.

At some point, Sophia had come all the way before Arte, looking down at the wise man.

And I stared at Sophia so that Arte would soothe.

"I've always thought that getting strength and being strong was the right way to go. So I admired Lady Sophia, the Virgin. One day I thought I could be a great sage alongside the Virgin, and together I believed I could be the most powerful adventurer of all time. And yet, how can Sophia stop the Knights so easily? What did you care about us? I don't know. Why would you think to be with such a magical swordsman if you were as powerful as Master Sophia?

"For I know more important things than power. That's all, Arte."

Arte said nothing, staying on his knees, and shook his neck to the side.

Those beautiful black eyes filled me with tears.

It was the moment when Arte completely lost his will to war and his defeat was decided.

Virgin Sophia stood back and wet the tears spilling out of Arte's eyes.
