Chapter 6: 5.1

“The Demon King?”

“What is that crazy man talking about…….”

“What is he taking out? Everyone step back!”

The knight’s eyes become alert.

“Catch him!”

But the man didn’t hesitate any longer, raising his hand and hurling the marble with all his strength. The knights hurried to subdue the man, but the marble had already been thrown.

“Protect His Majesty!”

The knight’s commander lifted his sword and protected the emperor.

It was also because the marble wasn’t thrown in front of the emperor.

Asmun saw the marble rolling away from the emperor as it went towards him.

“…….”

Asmun watched with indifferent eyes as black smoke rose from the cracked and shattered marble.

Those who recognized the marble screamed in terror.

“M-monster!”

Eden rushed through the fleeing people and went to where Asmun could be seen.

Soon, a large monster came out of the broken marble.

“Aaaaah-!”

The monster that emerged sounded something between a snake and a centipede.

It was roughly the size of an adult man, and it ran directly towards Asmun.

“Ahhh!”

“It’s a monster! Help!”

When a monster appeared in the sacred imperial palace and also in the banquet hall, the place was in chaos.

The Imperial Knights were all doing their best to protect the emperor, so there were no knights left to come to help Asmun.

No, even if the knights remained, they would not have been able to help Asmun. 

At least one of them threw a scroll they had for an emergency.

“Argg!”

The monster was now bound by the weak magical power that erupted from the scroll. The terrible screams of the monster struggling filled the banquet hall.

“What is that?”

“Hey, this is the first monster I’ve ever seen!”

It was also unfamiliar to the Hesmoro knights who usually fought monsters.

They knew many types of monsters and their weaknesses, but the monster in front of them was an unfamiliar species.

“Sir Asmun!”

Upon returning from a brief absence from the banquet hall due to the scheme of the first prince, Asmun’s servants saw him and tried to help him immediately, but the first prince Kiris stopped him.

“Stop!”

Kiris screamed so loud that even the emperor who was watching from afar could hear it.

“If he can’t get rid of the monster, how can he be called the Prince of Hesmorro? Don’t go there, Asmun can do it.”

“But……!”

Asmun’s subordinate clenched his sword as he saw his master confronting the monster in front of him.

Even at a glance, the monsters were above intermediate level. 

Considering its size, it was not a high-level monster, but of course it’s not that easy.

And Asmun didn’t have enough mana to deal with mid-level monsters.

In other words, he’s doomed.

“How dare you insult the prince!”

Kiris yelled furiously.

The statements made the Priest Sarman and Holy Knight Commander Karon froze.

If the monster had aimed at the emperor or threatened nobles, everyone would have come out and subdued the monster at once, but the one in front of the monster was Asmun.

In any case, Asmun was also a prince and he was part of a subjugation group that contributed to the extermination of monsters. So, to step out in front of him now is to disrespect Asmun.

“Keep in mind that disrespecting Asmun is a disrespect to the imperial family.”

In other words, they would offend the royal family if they helped.

Everyone in the room knew it, so Asmun had no help from anyone.

Moreover, even the emperor wanted to see if Asmun could do it, and he had not given an order.

It was seen that the magic that bound the monster was fading.

“…….”

Asmun, of course, guessed why he was in this situation. This was Kiris’ trap.

His recent subjugation team performance was good, but Kiris was always suspicious of him.

That is why he was trying to test him in the banquet where everyone gathers. 

Perhaps, the raid on the way was also Kiris’s fault.

And there was another person who knew exactly what Kiris did. It was Eden who had already experienced all of this.

“In reality, it’s even more terrifying, the battle…….”

Eden looked at the monster while muttering as if she was already tired before it even started.
