In the tent, Iskar lay quietly on her bed, and the kingdom's physician unleashed her advanced healing magic, green light lingering over her.

"Iska, how is she?" Haruka asked.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess's situation has stabilized for the time being. ”

"How can this be, her body obviously doesn't look like there are external injuries... ”

"This... I'm afraid it wasn't an outside force that caused her injury. ”

"What do you mean?"

"If my guess is correct, the princess's body doesn't seem to be able to withstand such a huge power of the holy sword, so if she uses the power of the holy sword like this without limitation, I'm afraid her body will collapse first. ”

"Isn't she the chosen hero? ”

"According to the literature, even the previous owner of the holy sword, the brave Li En, died not long after defeating the God of Destruction, so using such an amazing power will naturally have an impact on the princess's lifespan... ”

“。。。。。。 Haruka froze in place, not even noticing Natalie when she walked into the tent.

"How's Iska?" Natalie nudged him from behind.

“。。。。 Natalie. "Come to your senses," the doctor said, and for the time being, there was no major problem. ”

"That's right. She turned her gaze to Iska on the bed, she slept very peacefully, completely devoid of the heroic appearance of the previous battle, as if she were an ordinary girl.

"Let's go, it's useless to stay here, I have something I want to discuss with you. Natalie patted Haruka on the shoulder.

"Hmm. Haruka nodded, gave Iska one last look, and followed her out of the tent.

Walking out of the tent, the entire camp of the king's army was already dilapidated, almost most of the tents were damaged, and the garrison on the imperial side temporarily sent some simple supplies to keep the position going.

"Princess Iskar is fine, right?" The eldest prince Jeton had a bandage around his head, and when the demons attacked before, he was injured by the aftermath of the battle, and faint blood stains could be seen on the bandage.

"It's not a big deal anymore, but I need to rest for a while. Haruka replied, "Your Highness, are you alright?" Haruka noticed the other party's injuries and couldn't help but ask.

"I'm ashamed to say that you fought so bloodily, and not only did I not help, but I made such a mess. Jetton said with a wry smile.

"What about the others?"

"The Imperial camp has not been attacked by demons, so there is no major problem, but the kingdom has suffered heavy losses. Jetton said as he turned his gaze into the distance, where the soldiers in the camp were busy moving the wounded, the destroyed supplies were temporarily piled together, and some unextinguished fires were scattered scattered throughout the camp.

"Your Excellency the Black Sword Hime?" a voice came from not far away, and I saw Grand Duke Sainz leading a team of soldiers to Haruka.

"Who are you?"

"I am Sainz, Grand Duke of Artinia, and I am sending you a message on behalf of His Royal Highness, hoping that you will be able to meet His Majesty once. ”

"Your Majesty, is that Iska's father?"

"Yes. ”

"Well, I just want to ask him something. Haruka said.

"I'll go with you. Natalie followed as she looked at Prince Jeton.

"Then I will go back to the Empire for the time being, and after the two of you have communicated with His Majesty the King, you can return to the Empire at any time. Jetton said whimfully.

"Then please come here, please. Sainz said to the two.

This was Haruka's first meeting with King Salz of Altinia, so he was still a little nervous. The king was on the throne, but the tent was much more broken than the previous one, and I am afraid that the previous battle had also affected the king, so there was still dirt on his armor that had not been wiped off.

"Are you the Black Sword Queen?" Salz looked Haruka up and down, looking a little grizzled, but the majesty of being a king was still there.

"Yes, Your Majesty, my name is Haruka. Out of politeness, Haruka knelt down on one knee and saluted the king.

"Get up. Wang Kingdom said calmly, "I didn't expect that the legendary Black Sword Ji, who can defeat a hundred enemies with one and one hundred, and even the demons can kill her, is actually a weak woman who looks like a little girl." ”

"Your Majesty, you have said it, the legend is always a little exaggerated, and I am actually not that powerful. ”

"Yes, I heard that it was you who protected her all the way to the time Iska fled, and finally rescued her alone from the battle on the plains of Narmisso?"

"That's pretty much the case, but I've also had a lot of help. ”

"yes, you disappeared after that, and you should have been rewarded. ”

"It's an honor to be able to protect Princess Iskar, and I don't need to reward anything. ”

"Yes, it's a pity, a person with a skill like you, if you stay in the kingdom, you should be able to get ahead. ”

"Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, I'm just a mere adventurer, I just want to make a living in this troubled world. ”

"I didn't expect you to be so humble, I admire you. The king suddenly stood up from his throne, "Would you like to stay with Princess Iskar and continue to assist her?"

"This... ”

"Your Majesty, may I say a word?" said Natalie, who was on the side.

"Say it. ”

"Now the war with the demons is so stalemate, whether it is the empire or the kingdom, they are in urgent need of combat power. ”

"You mean we ... Sainz interjected, but was stopped by the king with a gesture.

"Go on. ”

"In the current situation, humans must stand on the same front against the demons, so Haruka should not belong to a certain country, but participate in the battle as a member of the human alliance. ”

"Do you not belong to any nation, but become a coalition?" muttered the king.

"Prince Jeton has already expressed his desire to form an alliance to Your Majesty before, so can you consider it? ”

"Your name is Natalie, isn't it?" Salz burst out laughing, "I remember you." And about the alliance you mentioned, I will officially send an emissary to the Empire. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your ...... righteousness"
