Happy Reading~

"Okay... This first attack will definitely hit those guards. And after that, I will go in to kill the Saintess," the assassin muttered to himself, preparing to launch his first attack.
But before that, he didn’t forget to take out some arrows.
The arrow, looked like it was coated in some strange liquid.
"Ha ha ha, I’m sure the leader will be happy after hearing this news."
Finally, the assassin, he decided to shoot all five arrows in his hand at once.
Simultaneously, he also did not forget to layer magic energy into the other five arrows.
*Tusk!-*
...
Back to where I am, right now, we are still continuing our steps.
Only, there is something different.
Just look, the guards, they didn’t say anything.
In fact, previously they had been chatting non-stop.
And for some reason, they are currently very quiet.
Without realizing it, the sound of Berdick’s scream suddenly reached my ears.
"Be careful! Several attacks are heading our way! Protect the princess!"
"What...?" before the guards could react, they were shot by various arrows from a distance.
Like it or not, the guards, they had to fall from their mounts.
"Ck! For those who survive, remember not to avert your eyes!"
"Understood..." might be true, the few guards who survived, they felt afraid.
Even so, they knew that their duty was to look after the princess.
Hence, it was not strange that they would not show their panic.
If they ran away, their families would be executed by the Emperor.
However, fleeing the battlefield would be tantamount to betraying the empire itself.
"The second attack comes again!"
Fortunately, the arrows this time were repelled by them.
When the arrow fell to the ground, they could see various strange liquids.
The liquid, somehow reminded them of something uncomfortable.
"Poison? Damn... Looks like the murderer this time is no ordinary murderer." commented Berdik, unable to help but grit his teeth.
If the princess was hurt, they didn’t know what to do.
Suddenly, he remembered me telling them about this matter.
Finally, like it or not, he intended to ask me to do something.
"Mr. Noah... I know this is strange, but please keep the princess away from this place. You are the only person who can be trusted."
"What?" actually, until now I still haven’t seen the princess’s face.
At most, I only heard the voice she indicated.
And this man, he actually told me to take the princess away from this place.
Still, I’m a little doubtful whether the princess will accept it or not.
I’m worried, worried that the princess won’t leave this place.
When I was with them, I knew that the princess was a good person.
It should, be impossible for the princess to leave her guards behind.
"Lady, sorry for my impudence. But please go away, the assassin this time is not an ordinary assassin. He is above the level of an ordinary Warrior in general."
"But…" as expected, the princess, she even showed her doubts.
She didn’t want to, didn’t want to leave her guards.
"What he said is true... Please leave, it’s for your safety."
Still, it doesn’t matter what the princess thinks.
In fact, Mark, he even agreed to his friend’s request.
Maybe it’s true, the other side of him, he still doesn’t believe me.
But he had no choice, he knew.
Knew that I was the weakest in this place.
Supposedly, it would be impossible for that assassin to track down a weakling like me.
Even so, what he thought was just a mere guess.
If it was someone else, it would be impossible for them to think like that.
