CHAPTER 30

Laslo pulled the sword from his neck and split the nearest man’s chest in half.

Blood splashed in all directions.

The person who followed immediately swung a sword at Laslo.

Laslo cut off his right arm, which was holding a sword without blinking an eye.

“Argh!”

The scream was very high. Laslo shook off the blood from his sword at once and cut his throat.

Blood gushed out of his half-cut throat. His face was soaked in blood. Thanks to it, blood got into his mouth.

Laslo spat blood-mixed saliva on the floor with a cold face.

Nine died in a blink of an eye.

The assassins who saw it faltered and feared to attack Laslo.

“Wow. I’ll save one of you three.”

At that, the three looked at each other and rushed in at once.

Laslo automatically cuts one person’s neck and the other’s leg.

The other one faltered and turned around and ran to the window.

“Ack!”

There is nothing easier than facing an enemy’s back.

Laslo threw the dagger he was wearing on his waist.  The blade pierced the back and protruded to the abdomen.

“Lord.”

Ralph removed the dagger from the assassin’s back and dedicated it to Laslo. The other held out a handkerchief.

Laslo roughly wiped the blood off his face and hands with it.

“Put the man whose leg was cut off in prison and stop bleeding. I’ll interrogate him myself.”

“Yes.”

It took less than half an hour to kill or decapitate the twelve men.

Laslo put the sword in its sheath and walked to the bed.

Agnes hugged her knees tightly with both hands and bowed her head.

He hugged her tightly with the blankets around him.

“Hyuk! W, who?”

“It’s me. Princess.”

Agnes only then looked up at Laslo. Her nervous body loosened a little.

“Duke. B, blood…….”

“It’s not my blood, so don’t worry.”

He spoke calmly.

Then, without notice, he put her arm behind her neck and knee and lifted Agnes up.

“This room is a mess, so rest in my bedroom.”

Agnes nodded calmly and buried his face in his arms. When his warmth reached her, her trembling body calmed down little by little.

Due to the disturbance, the mansion had been lit brightly.

The servants of the mansion wandered around the hallway with very nervous eyes.

“Open it.”

A servant, who was in front of Laslo’s bedroom, opened the door without question.

He carefully put Agnes down on the bed.

“Do you want me to call a maid?”

Agnes grabbed the hem of his clothes hard instead of answering. Her eyes were still full of anxiety.

“U, until dawn . . .”

It was a small voice, but it was enough to understand what she meant.

Laslo took off his blood-soaked top and lay at an angle next to her silently.

Agnes dug into his arms as he stroked her back.

It calmed her more than any consolation.

The rough breathing and crazy heartbeat gradually stabilized over time.

She lifted her head, then abruptly lifted the hem of her sleeve and brought it to his face.

“You got blood on you.”

“Hmm.”

Agnes wiped the blood off his face quite diligently.

“Is it Sebastian?”

“We’ll find out more after interrogating the assassin……. But that’s a high possibility.”

Agnes blinked slowly.

In fact, it was so obvious that she didn’t have to think about who it was.

There is only one person in this country who wants her to die.

“It’s okay.”

Laslo hugged her body tighter than before. She is small and fits right into my arms.

So small and fragile.

He was engulfed in an unknown emotion for a moment. His heart was beating so fast.

“It’ll be okay.”

“Yes.”

Agnes closed her eyes. She rolled up the blood from the hem of her sleeve.

Even though the dawn was breaking, she couldn’t fall asleep easily. That’s understandable.

Laslo called in his servant to bring a sedative.

“Drink this and take a nap.”

Agnes carefully received the bowl and drank the medicine at once.

She fell asleep quickly as if the drug worked quickly.

Laslo could not easily leave her side even though he knew that her breathing had changed evenly.

“I will definitely…….”

He swallowed the word quietly.

Laslo stood up after arranging her hair neatly.

“Master.”

Beller rushed out of the door.

“The assassin, who was just transferred to a dungeon for treatment, committed suicide.”

“Was there any evidence?”

Beller shook his head. Laslo’s face hardened. The two moved to the office.

“There’s too much to do.”

The knight muttered with dissatisfaction.

“How many troops do you have in the mansion?”

“Except for Elesh, there are only three knights, including ten soldiers and me.”

“Bring ten knights and twenty more soldiers from the territory.”

“Master. Wouldn’t that be too noticeable?”

“We still have a lot of time before we go back to the territory. What if something happens in the meantime?”

As time went on, I realized that something I had thought of lightly had to be taken seriously.

“Since the king has come out like that, we should prepare our side properly.”

“Okay, I’ll send a letter to Sutmar.”

“And.”

Laslo looked around once and lowered his voice.

“As soon as I go back to the territory, I’ll have to fill up the number of Elesh and build up my knights.”

“How much do you mean?”

“For now, twice the number of people.”

“Twice the number?”

Beller’s eyes widened.

“Is there a limit to the number of knights you can have?”

“If you increase your troops at once, the king will notice.”

“You just have to close your eyes like that. Gradually disperse the troops and train them. Do not gather them in one place. Enough to surround us with training reserve forces.”

“But master….”

“You will be staying in the capital and observing the atmosphere at the royal palace for the time being.”

“I’m afraid that I’ll go against the king’s will.”

A look of concern crept across Beller’s face.  As he had been in the capital for a long time.

“I’m sure you’ll take things carefully because of the princess.”

“What’s the problem? We’re not increasing the number of soldiers for the purpose of rebellion.”

Laslo said firmly. Nevertheless, Beller hesitated, blurring out the latter words.

“Of course, there is no reason to doubt that it is the upright loyalty of the Lord, but King Sebastian is a man who believes in nothing. Rather than leaving room for doubt for nothing.”

“Didn’t you just say it yourself? The king doesn’t believe in anything. Whether the number of soldiers decreases or increases, as long as the princess is next to me, he will not dispel doubts.”

Beller shut his mouth. It’s not wrong. Laslo continued to talk.

“In my opinion, This is more like a threat rather than having an intention to kill the princess. The number of assassins is too small for that purpose.”

“Is that so?”

“It’s a warning to live a simple life.”

I wanted to live like that.

I have no great greed or desire anyway.

So Laslo tried to live with satisfaction just by getting out of a desperate situation.

However, I changed my mind when I saw Agnes trembling in fear of her brother who might kill her.

She was willing to marry a man she had never seen before to live.

Even though she knew it was poisonous mushrooms, she ate  it silently.

When I knew that, I felt complicated and heavy.

Perhaps she had lived a life that he couldn’t have imagined.

“As long as the princess is in  Sutmar, she is a person under my protection. I can’t let go of her hand just because I’m afraid of the king’s gaze.”

Beller, who noticed that Laslo’s will was firm, nodded.

“I’ll talk to Sir Zoltan.”

The story of an assassin rushing into the Arpad Townhouse has spread to society.

As soon as Chavolti heard the news, he jumped and came to the mansion.

“How did you manage the townhouse? An assassin came to your room!”

“Calm down. It’s not a big deal”

“Of course it is.”

He breathed out of his nose.

“Come back to my mansion right now. I’ve cleaned up where you stayed.”

“Don’t be ridiculous. Why would I leave a mansion in good condition and go there?”

Agnes flatly refused. Chavolti repeatedly said, “Come back right away.”

Just in time, Laslo entered the drawing room.

“Duke. Come here and say something to Chavolti.”

“What’s going on?”

“Duke Arpad. I’ll take Agnes.”

Chavolti openly expressed his uncomfortable feelings. Laslo sat next to Agnes.

“An assassin! The security of the mansion seems to be poor. I’ll protect Agnes until she goes back to your territory.”

“I brought soldiers from the land.”

“How many soldiers do you think will solve the problem?”

“I placed more escort knights around her. I’ll pay more attention than before.”

Laslo replied calmly. Chavolti still looked unconvinced.

“That’s not enough. I’d rather her move to my mansion. then….”

“Marquis of Bezel.”

Laslo cut him off.

“I know that the princess is the marquis’ sister. I fully understand how worried you are.”

“However?”

“However I hope the marquis will recognize that I’m her husband.”

“……..”

“I will do my best to protect her. Don’t worry too much.”

Laslo said calmly. Agnes glanced at Laslo’s face.

Chavolti closed his mouth. There was a moment of silence.
