Special chamber beneath the Asgard royal palace.
With gritted teeth, Yorha confronted her father and king.
ㅤ
“Father!! Why have you confined me here?! The demon of 『Wrath』 is rampaging outside! How cowardly of you, as the king, to hide away first!”
“Yorha, don’t trouble our father. . . . . .To protect the bloodline of Asgard, this is the best course of action.”
“Do you intend to abandon your people?!”
“Don’t worry. A special A-class summoner is fighting it.”
“How many of them? Aren’t most of the heroes guarding here?”
“Listen, Yorha. The most important thing is to protect our blood, the blood of the Asgard royalty. . . . . .the original summoners.”
“You’re wrong. The top priority should be to protect the nation and its citizens.”
“Yorha. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Yorha glared coldly at her father.
He was utterly incompetent. Not even worth talking to.
And her brother, Sanbart, stood silently like a statue.
ㅤ
“Onii-sama. . . . . .What do you think about this situation?”
“The 『Wrath』 is not something we can handle. It should be entrusted to the heroes, the twenty-one summoners. Don’t worry, those heroes will surely win.”
ㅤ
A gentle smile further irritates Yorha.
There is no entrance or exit to leave the room. It is a special room that can only be accessed through the ability of the summoned beast 『Spatial Translocation』 of the hermit Trismegistus.
Trismegistus stands silently in the corner of the room.
ㅤ
“. . . . . .Damn it.”
ㅤ
Outside, Yorha could command her pieces to respond as much as she liked. But in this state. . . . . .she was helpless.
Her incompetent father. Her blind brother. And her father’s puppet, the 『Hermit』.
In a situation without allies, Yorha gritted her teeth.
ㅤ
“. . . . . .Albero, do something!”
ㅤ
All she could do now was pray.
ㅤ
◇◇◇◇◇◇
ㅤ
“. . . . . .”
“Ah, elder sister. . . . . .”
“. . . . . .What should we do?”
ㅤ
Esterize, having heard of the attack by the demon 『Wrath』 Ogre, mobilized the B-class and A-class to the vicinity of the S-class school. However, she could only watch from a distance, unable to do anything.
Simply put, there was too great a difference in dimensions for her to intervene.
ㅤ
“. . . . . .We’ll wait.”
ㅤ
She strained her voice to its utmost.
She thought she knew the strength of the demons from facing Abel, but Ogre was on a different level. The strongest twenty-one summoners were fighting it four against one.
Moreover, the one who had been fighting until the strongest summoner arrived. . . . . .was Albero.
Despite his fears, he was bravely fighting.
Coincidentally, the situation resembled when they had abandoned the F-class.
All they did was watch.
ㅤ
“. . . . . .”
ㅤ
She was an A-class summoner.
She had pride in that title. But that title seemed insignificant now.
The threat of the demon was not something someone of Esterize’s caliber could handle.
Then, pushing through the students who were watching the situation, Oswald appeared.
ㅤ
“Esterize-kun.”
“. . . . . .Oswald-sensei.”
“Leave this place to the S-class and step back.”
“What. . . . . .?”
“Just now, we received an official order from the Noble Federation. Summoners of B-class and above are to protect the royal castle.”
“Protect the royal castle?”
“Yes. It’s a duty to protect the royal family and the nobles who have evacuated. There are also knights and summoners affiliated with the kingdom. . . . . .Learn from this experience.”
“Understood. . . . . .All units, head to Asgard Castle!!”
ㅤ
Esterize led the students towards the castle.
Fugil paused for a moment, looking at the S-class school building. . . . . .and Albero.
However, being pushed by Rashild, he gritted his teeth and left.
The remaining Oswald watched the battle in front of the school with cold eyes.
ㅤ
“Hmm. It’s expected of the S-class, but I wish even the special A-class would disappear. Relics of the past. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Oswald clicked his tongue and left the scene.
ㅤ
◇◇◇◇◇◇
ㅤ
Meteore was stuck in the castle.
He happened to have business at the castle when Ogre attacked. He tried to return to the academy immediately, but the king ordered him to protect the castle, leaving him unable to move.
He tried to explain and return, but. . . . . .there are many excellent teachers at the academy. They told him it would be fine even if he didn’t come back.
No matter how powerful Meteore is, the king’s orders are absolute.
So, he was wandering alone inside the castle.
ㅤ
“. . . . . .sigh.”
ㅤ
Meteore let out a deep sigh.
He felt so powerless.
He had heard that Damocles, Garnet, Venus, and Arjan, who happened to be outside, started battling the Ogre, but he hasn’t received any updates since.
Before that, he heard that a boy from S-class was fighting━━
ㅤ
“. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Meteore looked up at the sky.
The weather was good, and the sunlight was dazzling. . . . . .battles were still ongoing at this very moment.
Then, a priestess approached Meteore.
ㅤ
“Meteore.”
“. . . . . .Gabriel?”
ㅤ
She appeared to be in her early teens.
With pure white long hair and wearing noble priestess attire, the white girl smiled at Meteore.
Meteore narrowed his eyes slightly.
ㅤ
“You know it’s not right to disobey orders, right?”
“I am aware.”
“What’s most important is protecting the royal bloodline.”
“I know.”
“So, what we must do. . . . . .”
“Enough already.”
ㅤ
Meteore cut off Gabriel’s words.
Gabriel didn’t seem particularly angry about being interrupted.
With a gentle smile, she gave her final piece of advice.
ㅤ
“You cannot win against 『Wrath』. And hope that, like before, he whimsically leaves. Until then, entrust it to Damocles and others, and focus solely on protecting this place.”
“. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Without listening to the end, Meteore walked past Gabriel.
The sound argument of 『Judgement』 Gabriel felt infuriating to hear.
