Although Gazef's strength was much higher than that of his subordinates, he was also the most seriously injured. Except for those subordinates who were stabbed in the vital parts by the Flame Angel and killed directly, Gazef was the last person to wake up.

Still on the grassland, the surroundings were in a mess. There was the blood of war horses and his subordinates on the ground, but the Sunshine Codex troops were missing. However, there were fragments of armor and clothing on the ground, as well as large blood stains that did not belong to himself or his subordinates. In addition, those Terrifying traces of battle, could it be possible?……

"woke up?"

Hearing the voice, Gazef's originally hazy eyes suddenly sobered up a lot, and he saw clearly Rito Yuuki who was sitting not far from him during the free time, and the man who had been following Rito Yuuki from the beginning. The black-armored warrior beside me

"yes they……?"

Yuuki Rito understood that the"them" Gazef was talking about were the Sunshine Scripture, and glanced at the surrounding Gazef's subordinates who had woken up one after another. The number was less than half of the previous one. The previous twenty knights, There are only eight people left alive now. These eight people are lucky. They only suffered some minor injuries. Even if they are not treated, they will not simply die.

"They were wiped out by me. I saved the lives of the villagers of Karn Village, as well as you and your men. This is a life-saving grace."

Looking at the black-armored warrior behind Rito Yuuki, he saw that there was no blood on his giant axe. Gazef's eyes were fixed on Rito Yuuki. Could it be that the entire Sunshine Sacred Scripture is in front of him? The young man who annihilated it alone?

"The grace of saving your life will never be forgotten. I will report it to Your Majesty and tell you your merits. You will definitely be richly rewarded. Gazef didn't have time to think about how powerful Rito Yuuki was, that he could destroy the Sunshine Codex by himself. He wanted to win over the other party and increase the power of the kingdom. The origin of the other party was no longer important. This kind of person could protect a country. A strong person will never perform such a humble job as a spy

"A generous reward? Maybe not? Your Excellency, Warrior Commander, as the highest-ranking military officer in the kingdom, you are here to defeat the rebellious enemies in the name of the King, but you only have a force of twenty people. Moreover, the equipment is so messy. Warrior Commander, you don’t have any special powerful weapons. , are you really a warrior captain?"

Yuuki Rito's words made people stand up in twos and threes. The knights who used the herbs they brought with them to treat their wounds all lowered their heads. Yuuki Rito has been a life-saving grace to everyone. No one will be hostile because of his words. On the contrary. Yes, hatred for the noble faction arose in the hearts of the knights, as well as dissatisfaction with the king who was desperately loyal to the warrior captain but failed to give corresponding support to the warrior captain.

"I'm ashamed to say it, but I didn't lie. Gazef did not see the expressions of his subordinates, his eyes were filled with sadness. If the Theocracy's plan succeeds and he dies, then how many people in the entire kingdom will be loyal to His Majesty?

"It seems that the warrior chief also has his own difficulties. I think my contribution is still somewhat different from that of the warrior chief who has fought for the kingdom through life and death. Even the warrior chief is only treated like this, so I don't expect anything more."

Yuki Rito's words made the negative emotions in the eyes of Gazef's subordinates more obvious. They were loyal to the warrior captain. They were also loyal to the kingdom under the warrior captain's guidance before. However, what happened now made them feel chilled..The noble faction that had always been the enemy disarmed the warrior captain. The king did not stop this, and even failed to send enough troops to support it. Then the elite troops of the Silian Theocracy appeared on the border of the kingdom, and surrounded and killed the warrior captain. No matter how you look at it, it's all a conspiracy

"No, Lord Yuuki Rito, I promise that you……"

It was related to the image of the Kingdom in the minds of capable people. Gazef wanted to remedy the situation. He had already made a plan in his mind. Once Rito Yuuki was willing to serve the Kingdom, he would do everything he could to make him its mainstay. With his power, the King The faction should flourish and the kingdom become stable.

However, Gazef was interrupted by Yuuki Rito in the middle of his words.

"Okay, Your Excellency, Warrior Commander, do you have some healing medicine? Heal yourself for a while, and then return to the capital to recover. I still have my own things to do. I’ll see you later."

"……See you later. Your kindness in saving me, my subordinates, and the people of the kingdom will be borne in my heart. If there is an opportunity in the future, Gazef is willing to do his best to help."

Watching Yuki Rito and the black-armored warrior turn around and leave, Gazef glanced at his eight remaining subordinates. The twenty people who followed him here are the most loyal knights and have good combat prowess. , it is not an exaggeration to say that they are close friends. Now that there are only eight people left, Gazef feels a touch of sadness in his heart.

"Let's go back and report to His Majesty."

"Warrior Captain...yes!"

The knights seemed to want to say something, but in the end they gave up and nodded dejectedly.

"Why did Yuuki Rito-sama spend so much energy on that human being?"

Albedo followed Yuuki Rito silently. Now that the dust had settled, she no longer remained silent.

"I want to see, when his loyal subordinates and the people he protects go against the principles he upholds, what choice will the foolish and loyal man make? Should he abandon the dark and turn to the light, die to serve the country, or kill his relatives for justice?"

"……It should be the best thing to leave it to me, right? Yuuki Rito-sama really doesn't need to personally help such a weak person, and the people surrounding him are no big deal, so I boldly think that it is not necessary for Yuuki Rito-sama to personally take action."

Hearing Albedo's words, Yuki Rito raised his hand and shook it, letting Albedo see the metal gloves on his hand.

"This is a world-class item, [Greed and Desire], you should know something about it, right? I have some things to make sure. In order to use this item, I need to kill the enemy myself."

"I see."

Albedo seems to hate humans very much. She has wanted to kill Enri more than once before. What is the reason? Besides the so-called jealousy, is it because Enri is not from Nazarick? Rito Yuki can conclude that if so, If any of the maids in Nazarick shows affection towards her, Albedo will not have murderous intentions.

"In addition, I will teach Enri to become a miko. She also saw the appearance of the eight-limbed assassin bug. If she can keep the secret in the future and there is no panic in Karn Village, she can be regarded as a person from Nazarick."

"This...I understand."

At this moment, Albedo hopes that Enri will reveal the secret.
