assassin

To tell you the truth, what His Royal Highness looks like that prince......

Very unmajestic, looks like a girl, and has a cowardly personality, but Hiss can see a light in his eyes called 'hope'. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The two of them are...... Is it a high-level adventurer that Ligett said?'

Seeing His Royal Highness the Prince asking such a cautious question, Heath and Grimes couldn't help but smile wryly and nodded.

They knew why the man who was called the general was so emaciated, and they would be physically and mentally exhausted if they were to have such a prince!

'Oh~ Presumably this is the great prince who cares about our people!' Heath smiled slightly, her words causing General Lidjet, who was beside the prince, to frown slightly.

'It's an exaggeration, I just want to protect...... Just change the country!'

'Unlike the weak appearance, you are a strong prince, and it is great that your subjects have a leader like you!'

This sentence was said by Graims, and if it is impossible to distinguish between sarcasm and praise in Heath's sentence before, then Grimes's sentence is purely praising the prince.

'You're exaggerating!'

The prince's cheeks were as red as an apple when he heard this, and if it were an ordinary man who was not strong-willed, he would probably be bent in an instant......

So...... Dear Adventurer, why did you come to this city, because we rebelled against our father...... The king's rule has caused most countries to block the passage to the Duchy of Warsaw, and there should be nothing here that can attract the two adventurers. ’

‘……’

Grammes glanced at Hiss beside him, and saw that the other party deliberately turned his head, as if to ask him to explain.

"Eh! Actually, this is His Royal Highness the Prince, I followed the master to the Holy King's Empire, and for some special reasons, I can only walk, so I came to this city......

'Of course, we'll only stay for one day, and we'll continue our journey to the Holy King's Empire tomorrow. ’

'Yes...... Is it because of the problem of funds?' The prince frowned slightly, in this day and age, even adventurers must rely on money to survive.

"No, Your Highness the Prince, my body has been burdened by the master craftsman, and going to the Holy King's Empire in the form of exercise is the way to quickly improve my strength!"

'Load-bearing?'

'Yes, Your Highness the Prince, the weight of that Lord Grimes is too much for even a high-ranking adventurer to bear, but it is more like destroying Lord Grimes' body than exercising!' said the General Lijt, and looked at Heath.

'This is the best exercise for Grimes, his physique is extraordinary, and this is also the purpose of going to the Saint King's Empire!' Hiss replied with a nonchalant expression.

'Purpose?'

'It's not convenient to say this, then, is there anything else Your Highness would like to ask?'

I don't know why, when General Lidjet saw Heath's 'indifferent' attitude, he would not have been angry when he faced such a frenzied enemy...... There was a little bit of anger.

'Nope...... If you can, can you please two of you stay in the city lord's mansion tonight...... It's hard to say, but I'd like to hire two of my guards to-night, as long as it's tonight!'

'Your Royal Highness, no matter how powerful the two adventurers are, you surrender yourself like this......

'I know, Lidjet, Ozarsas has moved most of his army, and it will be too difficult to protect me alone in a city that is not more than a hundred defenders......!'

'What do you think, Grames?'

'Master, let's agree!'

‘……’

That's not what I want, eh~ After all, Grimes is not an earthling who doesn't understand those stalks, but it seems that this prince has something unspeakable~

'Two ......'

'Since it is a mission ordered by the prince himself, how can we, as adventurers, refuse~' Heath said with a smile.

'Leave your safety to me and the master!' said Grimes confidently.

'More ......'

'No need to thank you, just provide enough reward afterwards!' Hiss interrupted His Royal Highness with a smile.

'Don't worry!' though I'm already ...... to my Father The king raised the flag against him, but he still had some savings, and the reward for the two of them was definitely enough......

'Your Highness!' Lijit finally couldn't help it, even if Hiss was a high-level adventurer, he couldn't spy on the strength of the powerhouse, but as the most loyal general beside the prince, he didn't want to see his master so low-voiced......

'Alright, I'll wait until tomorrow, your general doesn't seem to like me, so you might as well have someone arrange a room for us first!' Heath still had that expression, and it was impossible to guess what was going on in her mind.

‘…… Okay, okay, come on, take the two adventurers to the guest room. His Royal Highness the Prince barely showed a hint of domineering at this time, but ......

'What about people?'

"I guess it's dead, it seems that there are some rats mixed in the city lord's mansion, because the appearance of the two of us made them appear in advance~'

If there were no adventurers to help His Royal Highness, the assassins who had been lurking in the city for a long time could have easily assassinated the prince, but now there are two variables, Hiss and Graems, who have to advance their plans!

The above is the guess in Hiss's mind, although it is not very correct, but it is not far from ten.

Poof!

The blood flower instantly bloomed not far behind Hiss, and the tip of the two-meter-and-a-half long blade pierced into the body of a phantom.

"I've already found out about you, stealth skills or something, I've seen a lot!" Hiss chuckled, and it was actually because of the snake's unique heat sense that he discovered the assassins......

Of course, it's okay to release perception, but if it's not enough, it's a bit of a fuss.

'I didn't expect to do it so quickly!' General Lidjet drew his long sword at his waist and stared at the assassins around him who had appeared because of Hiss's words, "You are the King's [Blood Blade]! In order to kill His Highness, that guy actually ......

'Bloody Blade?' Seems to be interesting~'

Hiss slowly raised the knife and looked at the assassin who was provoked by the knife, and for some reason, the assassin couldn't pull out the blade that had been stabbed into the abdomen, no matter how hard he tried.

'Useless struggle!'

'Up!'

One of the men, dressed in the same clothes as the other assassins, but in red, suddenly shouted.

Immediately afterward, the assassins swarmed up, not at the prince, but at Hiss, who was not yet dead, with a knife!

'Deal with me first?' Hiss said with some surprise.

'Master ......'

'Graims, step back first, protect the Prince. ’

'Yes!'

The moment Grimes retreated to the side of His Royal Highness the Prince, Hiss swung his knife and threw the assassin on the tip of the knife out, hitting the three assassins who came at him, but unfortunately it was not enough to stop only three!

'Lord Hiss!!!'

Hiss didn't seem to hear the exclamation of His Royal Highness the Prince behind him, and slowly made a gesture with the two-meter-long sword.

For a moment, everyone felt as if the time around them had been stretched, and the assassins in front of them became extremely slow, as if they had fallen into sticky flowing water, and they could not fight back or defend against the blades of the Hiss.

'The Pleiades - the first word!'

'Slow as a light stream, as fast as a meteor falling into the sky!'

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Heath is starting to pretend! Get out of the way!

The names of those moves were improvised by Hiss, and they weren't really powerful, they were just full of light and shadow effects - very cool!
