Now, Karna was resting in the room where five "former" masters: Lotville Berzinski, Kim Ram, the Pantiel brothers, and Fender Wall Semberen were resting.

All five sat at equal intervals around the periphery of a circular table. Obviously they weren't tied, but they were all looking up at the ceiling while talking with dull expressions.

"Then again, it's said that there was a coup d'état in the Atlas House."

"Look at how inciute the technique is engraved on this scroll. It cost a lot of money, but it's still worth the money! ”

"Well, that's right. Yes, well, that's right. ”

"Ahh How long is the plane going to keep us here? ”

"I was about to start arranging the inheritance of the engraving, but my son is really not a good thing, and he lacks the domineering spirit of being a magician."

The topic of the five has lost its sense of unity. But in fact, they are all normal, and if they were in that situation, they would have reacted the same way and said the same thing.

Here is a room specially allocated to them. They were fed poison by Amakusa and Semiramis before they were summoned, and as a result, they fell into another crazy world while maintaining a normal state of mind.

The means of spiritual defense they have mastered are like papier-mâché tigers to the empress. They weren't killed, but they weren't freed at the same time, they were left alive as they are now, in order to control the rest of Red's followers.

"You, are you here again?" The figure of the Empress appeared dimly behind Karna.

"Protect this courtyard. This is an order given by Sadashiro of Amakusa. In the current situation, I don't feel any signs of an attack. I'm afraid it's tomorrow night. Until then, I'll stay here as long as the previous lord doesn't instruct me. "Don't hesitate to go against the empress.,Don't be loyal to Amakusa like other servants.。

Listening to Karna's speech, the empress immediately showed a very unhappy expression.

Among the rest of the servants, Karna was the only one who did not recognize Amakusa's mastership. Although both Achilles and Tameow were dead to their former lords when they saw their disgraceful appearance, only Karnahik protected them because they had summoned themselves.

It doesn't matter if he does that, though. Either way, that Karna ended up being a pawn in Amakusa's hands.

However, if his lord came to his senses and gave instructions, there was no doubt that Karna would have betrayed. This is true regardless of the situation at the time.

Therefore, from a certain moment, the empress began to think about finding an opportunity to clean up all the five people who no one cared about. That's not a big deal, it's just the equivalent of cleaning up the mess.

However, Karna intervened in the matter.

"I don't care what you know about them, but since my master is among them, I can't leave them at your disposal." Karna said blandly about his intention to protect the five. Since then, he has been thwarting the Empress's plans while taking on the extremely boring task of guarding the Courtyard in the Sky.

Of course, it is not difficult to force a breakthrough. In this courtyard in the sky, the empress is simply the absolute power. If you suppress Karna with strength and kill those five people, it will only be a matter of effort. However, it was not a covert assassination, but a simple act of combat.

In other words, there is a danger that other followers will learn about it. It's not a big deal, but it's not a good sight to see. Seeing that Karna was still in this irritating attitude, the Empress said angrily, "You better give up, Lancer." None of them will wake up during this battle, and you're not obligated to listen to them. ”

"The relationship between the Master and the Servant is not an obligation, but a contract, a bond. Assassin, you probably didn't help Amakusa out of obligation. Karna said.

"Of course, he and I had a relationship based on a contract between Master and Servant. But Lancer, your Master should be Amakusa, not these guys. After the empress finished speaking, she pointed to the man whom Karna still worshipped as the royal lord.

The implication is self-evident.

But in the face of her provocative smile, Karna did not show the slightest disgust, but nodded in a serious and serious manner, and replied, "What you said is indeed true, Assassin. The relationship between the Master and the Servant, which has been concluded in the most legitimate way, is the only one in this camp. The Master is using you, and you are using the Master. However, there is a sense of dedication and trust in each other. You can't betray him, at most you just think about it in your heart. ”

………………

Hearing Karna's words, the empress was speechless for a moment. After a period of silence, the empress slowly spoke: "Just now, what did you say, coming?"

"Didn't say anything. You can't betray Master, and because the other party has full trust in you, I'm just complimenting you on the ideal relationship between Master and Servant. ”

The Empress stared fiercely at Karne. "What stupid are you talking about!"

"I'm not going to ask you to be considerate of me for that, but you can at least accept my approach, Assassin. The law of the jungle is the law of the world, and having said that, we are not beasts. We should have a human shell in addition to our instincts, and that is an ethic that is different for everyone. Now, it's this ethic that doesn't allow me to betray my Master. Because that's how I'm made of. ”

"I will protect them here, and that's all I can say," Karna declared.

The Empress's apparition shook her body as if to convey the impact of the body sitting on the throne.

"Is that so...... Well, whatever you like. ”

"Thank you Assassin."

Karna let out a deep groan, patting his chest and lowering the stone in his heart. In this way, the empress will probably never kill them again.

"It seems that my accusation has been fulfilled. Master, even though I haven't been able to say a word to you, I wish you luck. ”

After paying attention to the Lord who was speaking in a strange direction to the imaginary figure, Karna became a spirit and erased his form.

Then Karna sat alone on his throne with a blank look on his face.
