Chapter 15

Chapter 15 . Saving the Princess

Noon, soon after I finished clearing my quota hunting the mountain cow, I looked at the folding fan that I got from the Princess at my room .

Princess Helena folding fan, since the first time I got it in my hold I’ve always stick it around my belt .

(What is that?)

The cursed sword voice resonated inside my head .

The first time I got her, she was being so noisy asking to be released, however after the lottery event . She looked like she had a change of heart and she was not as noisy as she used to be .

“This is a present from a certain person that I saved . ”

“Your first love?”

“Uhh…”

I was at loss for words . But that might be the case . I was already captivated when I first saw her beautiful appearance . Long hair that was yellow in color, her gentle demeanor and her elegant self conduct . All of it, makes you really think that she’s really a “Royal Princess” .

“I wonder if she’s okay . ”

(Are you worry about her? Then why just don’t you go and meet her, using the wing that you have . )

“I don’t know where she is though . ”

Just to make sure I pulled out the Warp Wing, and strongly wished to go where Helena-hime was located right now . However, there was nothing happened .

Probably, I need to specify the [place] properly .

“Master!”

A knock on the door could be heard accompanied by Miu’s voice .

“What’s wrong?”

“Excuse me Master, but there’s a guest that would like to see you . ”

“Guest? What type of guest?”

“Um, a Princess… I guess?”

“Eh?”

My heart throbbed .

She said Princess, is there by any chance…

I took the cursed sword and exit the room and I followed Miu, walking behind her .

“She’s waiting at the reception room . ”

Quickly, I walked to the reception room . When I entered the room,

“Ah…” Unconsciously I let out a voice . The Princess that was waiting there was not Helena . She was the younger sister . Iris Theresia Mercury-hime . I was feeling a little bit disappointed but,

“Kakeru-kun…”

I was quite blown away when I saw Iris-hime troubled look .

“I would like to ask for your help . Please help my sister . ”

I sit down onto the sofa and ask further details regarding her request .

“Your older sister, is it about Helena-hime? What happened?”

“As of now my sister heading towards the frontline . ”

“Ah, if I’m not mistaken she’s going to give her condolences or something . ”

I recalled the time when I saved Helena-hime .

“That’s right, she went to the frontline of a subjugation war against the savage tribe . Overall the savage tribe had already been suppressed, it was already decided for someone from the royalty to come to the frontline after the war to give out their condolence . Thus my sister was the one who went there, however… . . ”

“However?”

“The subjugation commander changed side on-site thus turned the tide the other way around . ”

“Double-crossed? Then how about Helena-hime?”

“The Guardian Knight, Fortist; fought to his limit and managed to flee with my sister . As of now, it looks like they are staying guard at the nearby stronghold— I would like for you to go there . ”

“Me?”

“Yes! Of course I will be sending reinforcement army too but it will take too long to have them organized . But, I would like go to and save my sister before anything else .

Save my sister before anything else— she said it with a very serious expression .

Reading between the line, even if the entire army that was staying in defence had been massacred, she would at least want to save her sister . I traced that sense of urgency in her tone .

She had strong affection with her sister . That’s why I was able to feel a little doubt .

“Are you sure about this? Relying on someone like me . They just had been betrayed, isn’t better if you find someone that can be trusted more than I do?”

“That folding fan . ”

Iris pointed out to my waist . There the folding fan that Helena-hime gave me was tied onto my belt .

“That fan is my sister belonging isn’t? The first time when I saw you and up until now, you have always had that folding fan with you as if it’s something that is very important to you . With you, I don’t think there would be any problem . ”

“I see . ”

I touched the folding fan . Certainly this folding fan is really important to me, and the owner of this folding fan Helena-hime, is even more important .

Of course, with the intention to save her,even if I have to risk my life I will still save her .

With that said, I completely convinced .

“Furthermore…”

“Hm?”

I turned and looked at Iris-hime .

Furthermore—- what?

Iris looked at me straight in the eyes with her back straightened out, with look that have no doubt . “I can put my trust on if it’s Kakeru . ”

Surprise attack! That’s cheating! Looking at me with that sort of eyes, I can do nothing but trying to meet her expectation .

***

I rode a horse and made my out out from Roizen City . Exerting the horse energy, I made it until the next city, Reius . There with the prior arrangement made by Iris-hime I changed the exhausted horse that I was riding with a lively one and made it until the next city and changed horse again .

I kept on changing horses . Going to the where Helena-hime is located, I made my way to Euboi City’s stronghold .

I go to city that was the nearest to the stronghold and changed with a new horse and grabbed a map .

And so I arrived at the stronghold . It was a small stronghold that was surrounded with fences made out of wood .

(There are a lot of smokes . Did we arrived too late?)

The cursed sword voice resonated in my brain .

I began to look intently . With my strengthened eyesight, I see that the stronghold are being surrounded while being attacked heavily .

I was relieved .

“Looks like it has yet to end . We still have some time . ”

(I see)

“I’m going to use you . ”

I hold onto the cursed sword firmly, it was a dangerous weapon . But it was also a dependable one .

(I shall let you use me . However in exchange, after we finished you have to listed to one of my wish)

“I won’t listen to you request if it’s something like taking over other’s body okay . ”

I said as a reminder .

(Fuu, please feel free to unleash my full power . )

Dark aura started to leak from from the blade of the cursed sword . My appearance started to looked like Mari when she was possessed, but of course I was not possessed at all . However, I somehow understand it . Right now her weight increased several fold, her strength as a sword had increased several fold too .

With the cursed sword in my grasp, I jumped down from the horse and thrust it towards the enemy .

I ran in a straight line towards the stronghold gate .

Though the soldier who saw me was bewildered, I ignored them and advance by slaying down anyone who became an obstacle .

“Get outtta way you weaklings!”

I swing the cursed sword and kept on slashing the enemy that was coming on my way . I kept on slashing down the enemy while advancing . After slaying more than 100 soldiers, I finally made my way into the stronghold gate .

On the other side of the gate, there was a look of someone whom I know .

“Fortis!”

“Your’re…!!!”

Fortis who was there when I saved Helena-him was surprised when he saw my sudden appearance . I can feel the presence of other soldiers pressing through behind my back, there was no time to chat .

“I came here under the request of Iris-hime, please open the gate . ”

“Iris Highness? B-but . . ”

Fortis hesitated . He looked as if he was wondering if it’s really okay for him to open the gate .

“Kuuu…”

Because the soldiers behind me started to press against me, I turned around and cut them down . It became a point where I was burdened with guarding the gate .

Originally it was a place where all of the soldier swarm and rush against the gate, as for the level of difficulty, it doesn’t look like I can break through the soldiers swarm . No matter how many I cut the enemies down, I felt like I was pushed by a strong wave, that was exactly how strong it was .

Do I have to fight them like this until I annihilate them completely ?—- just when I had that thought,

“Fortis . ”

It was a voice that I had collection of, there’s no need to turn around and look for the owner of the voice as I already know who it was .

Helena-hime, from the sounds of it she’s safe . I was relieved .

However, Fortis dashed out in hurry .

“Royal Highness! This place is dangerous! Please lay down—–!”

“Open the gate . ”

“But…”

“Open it now . ”

“… . as your wish . ”

Finally the gate was opened after some times passed .

“Get in while you still have the chance . ”

“I got it! Oooohhhh!!!”

Holding the cursed sword in both hand . I strike from high up the sky to the ground below .

The ground shook accompanied with a loud boom . The place where I hit, there emerged a big crater . The soldiers was tripped due to the crater, feeling bewildered as they cannot progress forward .

In the meantime, I ran toward the stronghold inside and the gate was closed safely . There, I saw Helena-hime .

“Helena-hime . ”

“Kakeru-sama . ”

TLN: Okay now kiss .

For a short while, our eyes was locked to each other .

“I’ve come to save you . ”

With all my feelings, I said it .

Helena-hime smiled like large flower bloomed .
