Chapter 24: Recuperation
"This time we covered up our eyes and ears in order to carry out a secret mission, and now the mission is completed, but someone has taken advantage of this opportunity to capture His Highness, presumably to blackmail us Tessali!"
Keith was at the entrance of the cave, not just talking to Wolf, but summarizing his thoughts to everyone in the cave.
"Originally, Your Highness didn't have to work so hard to make yourself like this, it's all because our guards are incompetent......"
Speaking of which, Hall and Eddie in the cave were silent for a while, obviously for the three of them, who stood out from the many guards, they needed the dedication of their masters to survive, which was the heaviest blow to their pride all along!
[What a hate! How will we face Your Majesty when we go back!] X3
Wolfe Daishi had already admired the royal family of this country, and when he heard that this battle was fought by the young highness for the sake of the guards who had been sacrificed for him, he immediately stood in awe, thinking that this was the quality that people admired as a member of the royal family.
At this time, even if Iguli no longer knows how to read words and looks, he understands what kind of decision this seemingly ordinary young man made just now, he should have a way out, but he fought for a glimmer of life!
...... Most afraid, the air is suddenly quiet......
Neither Wolf Dashi, who was a listener, nor Iguli, who was stunned, did not bother the three royal guards who were in remorse, because they both vaguely understood that the two masters and apprentices who were outsiders were not qualified to comfort and relieve the three of them, and the person who was qualified to "forgive" them was now unconscious, but fortunately, this person was fine......
To be honest, at this time, only Iguli did not understand such a fetter in front of him, because on the Jia continent, Iguli had only seen the arrogant and domineering Baron Lauren and the arrogant knights, and he knew that about the nobles, the nobles were probably only the most impressive conscription and taxation.
Even if they understand that they rely on the protection of the nobles and their knights, they can live and work in peace and contentment in the country of Guzi and avoid the persecution of war, but after all, they have not seen the horror of war, so for the nobles and adults who can be unscrupulous "lazy to eat" and "do evil", Iguli, who loves to read and love stories, has a small people mentality that is both afraid and yearning.

[Even though I have been a good citizen for generations, don't you allow me to YY it?!]
At the age of 14, where did Iguli, who wanted to establish the correct three views, ever seen such a strange aristocrat, no, it should be said that TM had never seen a nobleman.
So now this preconceived view has been simply and rudely broken back to the right path, it's really oh rice tofu, good, good!
It's a pity that Iguli doesn't understand that the king and the nobles are always different, the king needs to shoulder the strength of the people, and the nobles are just the king's props, and the props need the energy? No, the props just need to do their own work, give you glory, you don't need to have your own thoughts!
And for the Rizel Continent, which has an extraordinary strength system, there are only professional titles, and there are no nobles who have no fart contributions and no strength!
...... In this way, it is not unusual for the diligent and loving king to be a saint-like existence in the eyes of others, to appear on this continent and in this world, because even the royal family has to have power, how can a king without power protect his family and defend the country?!
In this world, legendary power is incomprehensible to ordinary tactical squads, and in the more scarce epics, their strength is strong enough against armies, and for mages...... The summoning beast, the foundation of the royal family's core power, was conceived and shaped with the help of magicians!
It is a meaningful thing for a country, a royal family, and a king to let their country continue to emerge with vitality instead of being stifled and buried, to let the strong and talented have a sense of belonging, and to attract more capable people.

"Uh!@ยฅ#@%...... Water...... It hurts a lot......"
The silence lasted until the early hours of the morning, when a muffled murmur broke the silence in the cave.
โ...... Water ......"
His Highness Wells, the only one lying in the cave, called out unconsciously, his voice was extremely slight, but in the current situation, he could hear even Worf Dashi, who was sitting the farthest away.
The faces of the trio, who were still tangled, gloomy, remorseful, and worried, changed as if they had changed their faces (Iguli: What is a face-changing?Roy: Can you manage it?!), and became extremely excited and surprised, fleeing, running, fighting, and keeping vigils all night, and the irrepressible exhaustion that could still be felt just now seemed to have all subsided in an instant.
But these are only illusions, no matter how strong the strength is, they are all human beings, human beings do not have infinite energy, short-term stimulation can not really drive away their fatigue, look at their faces excited, but the three people with the strength of the sword master can only staggered to find water can be clearly known.
...... Keith, Hall, and Eddie have probably reached their limits.
Iguli immediately understood the look of Master Worf, stood up and picked up the kettle that the three of them had desperately searched for but failed to find, and poured out a little bit and fed it to His Highness Wells, who looked uncomfortable, and his tangled face relaxed.
"Captain Keith, right? I understand that the three of you will probably be able to hold on without resting now, and I also understand that you are worried about your Highness's feelings, but it cannot be ignored that you should take a break and adjust your state while it is still safe, otherwise when your Highness comes to his senses, the three of you will probably drag him back again......"
Wolf Dashi also noticed that the situation of the three people did not seem to be good, guessing that they should have been fighting continuously, and they did not rest for so long, muttering in their hearts that these three people were inevitably too desperate, and persuaded the guard Keith who was sitting next to him:
"If it doesn't work, you can also let your subordinates rest first......"
"Okay, we are also dizzy, we have forgotten even such a simple truth, we should take a rest, we can no longer drag down Your Highness, and the matter of atonement will be left until Your Highness returns safely to the royal city, and then we will personally confess to Your Majesty!"
It seemed that a certain nerve was stimulated by Wolf's straightforward speech of "His Highness who dragged himself down again", Keith and Hall and Eddie, who were still in a hurry, calmed down, thanked him and went into a special state to rest.
The muscles on the three of them were obviously tense when they rested, guarding against any sudden accidents, Hall and Eddie were really resting, while Keith kept his eyes closed and recuperated.
