Chapter 29: The Uninvited Guest (Part II)
The spinning axe was used as a hidden weapon by the uninvited guests outside the door to throw it at Princess Tifia who was sitting behind the desk, but unfortunately the lady squire who was standing diagonally in front of the princess across a desk had sharp eyes, and the saber in her hand cut off the trajectory of the throwing axe and lifted it in the air, and then shot it down from mid-air and fell to her feet with a "bang".

The lady squire was full of anger, and then glared at the two armored humanoid guards who appeared at the door of the room, raised the sword in her hand and pointed at the iron helmet on the opponent's neck and asked sharply: "Who sent you here, who dared to assassinate the princess?" ”
As she spoke, she looked straight in the direction of the main entrance of the room, and suddenly found that the two humanoid guards at the door were wearing heavy armor covering their bodies, carrying quivers on their shoulders, a crossbow and a few small throwing axes around their waists, holding a huge black iron shield and a broad-bladed heavy sword, a horizontal slit on the face of the helmet shone like a one-eyed ghost, and heavy iron combat boots were not down-to-earth, but suspended from the ground.
The appearance of the two humanoid guards immediately shocked Ranna.
She remembered that she seemed to have seen such a thing with Her Highness the Princess at the Royal Wizarding Academy in the southern suburbs of Perades.
This is......
"Ranna!" The princess's voice jerked her lady-in-waiting back to reality.
In a flash of lightning, Ranna's attention was slightly distracted, and the arms of the heavily armored humanoid guards shook, and one of them struck her as if he was gliding on his toes on the water, and he rushed forward like a vulture swooping in the air.
The armor-covered humanoid guard held up the huge shield, held the sword horizontally at his side, and when he rushed in front of Ranna, he slashed the heavy sword in his hand forward with a sense of power, and a sharp spark immediately sparked on a marble floor in the office room.
Ranna's wheat-colored skin inherited the barbarian blood of the mountain people of Rasverne, her body was fortunately trained to be far more sensitive than the mountain people of the hilly region, and the heavy sword in the hands of the heavily armored guards tore the wind in front of her eyes, the side blade of the sword broke a strand of hair in front of her forehead, and her whole body used a timely retreat to avoid the opponent's sword.
At this moment, Ran Na and the heavily armored guards in front of her suddenly pulled away to a combat distance of about three steps.
The princess's lady-in-waiting stiffened her body after biting the enemy with a sharp gaze and violently swinging the sword, clenching the saber in her hand and just about to counterattack, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of another heavily armored guard who was still at the door a second ago, passing by her, and the standard of the route of the breakthrough was aimed at the desk by the window, and the target of the attack went straight to Princess Tifia.
"Your Highness!" Rana immediately turned around, shook her sword-gripping wrist, and immediately threw down the enemy she had just fought and ran towards the heavily armored guard who was attacking the princess.
Miss Squire's all-out dash was faster than the heavy armor guard's advance, and it would take her about a second and a half to intercept the heavily armored guard who was attacking Princess Tiphia.
A second and a half is not a long time, but it is enough to say that it is enough for the two swordmasters to distinguish between the two dueling swordsmen at the wrong moment, and at this moment, the heavily armored guards who are rushing towards Princess Tifia raise their arms and push the tip of the heavy sword against the brow of the wheelchair princess.
The positions of the princess, the guard, and the lady-in-waiting suddenly form a subtle triangle in this freeze-frame picture.
The heavily armored guards could have preemptively assassinated Princess Tifia, or Rana could have intercepted the hypothesis from behind before it came true, the subtle triangle was destined to be broken by any of them in the next moment of the flow of time, the heavy sword in the hands of the heavily armored guards was already eager to try, and the pace of the lady's feet was as swift as flying.
Princess Tifia is killed, or the heavily armored guards are intercepted, the two possibilities are true and false, and the mystery of reality is revealed in the next second in the room.
But no one thought that -
"Bang!"
A second later, the final revelation of the mystery was Princess Tivia herself, and a gunshot from her hand was heard, but there was no smoke.
The princess, the regent of the Violet Kingdom, sat calmly in her wheelchair, and the hand under the desk suddenly pulled out a small, well-made firearm and aimed it at the heavily armored guard who was shooting at her.
The magic device in the chamber of the musket transformed the wind element in the air into a magical form of wind projectile and shot out of the gun, just in time for the heavily armored guard to remove the giant shield and prepare to swing the sword, striking the iron helmet on its head, causing its head to tilt back, and the heavy steel boots continued to lead its legs forward, nearly knocking it to the ground.
Rana and her sword followed.
The squire's arms wrapped in the long sleeves of her shirt were strong and strong, and she fell from behind the heavily armored guard, stepped on the fallen guard, and the saber in her hand was condescending, and aimed at the little blue light in the gap of the guard's helmet, and then she heard a low humming sound from the inside of the iron helmet, and then the heavily armored guard was like a puppet with a broken string and never moved again.
"Your Highness, are you alright?" Rana pulled her sword back from the crack in the guard's helmet and immediately turned her gaze to the other guy she had fought in the first place.
"My hand hurts a little." Tifia gritted her teeth, her left hand gripped the gun's right wrist, and the small fire bolt snapped in two, and tiny metal parts slipped out of the bore.
It seems that this gadget that can compress air into ammunition and shoot it out is just a disposable item.
In fact, the small firearm in the princess's hand was indeed only a trial weapon. The kingdom exploration team led by Countess Kalya had unearthed the magic guide fire materials produced by the plateau dwarves in the Third Age on the hiking road in Huifeng Valley near the foot of the southern mountain of the Moon Cold Plateau.
It's a pity that the quality of the original batch of domestic goods made by the Violet people is really worrying, and most of the products are either blown up, or the magic guide device always fails, or the recoil is too large to control.
The gun that Tifia had just pulled out from under the drawer on her desk was the only one of them, but the fragile structure of the gun could only support the barrel to fire once, which was not much worse than the one Arya had used to fight Camussa in the depths of the ancient ruins.
This may also be a testament to the fact that the mastery of magic techniques is no easier than pure sorcery, and the realm of the Plateau, ruled by the dwarven king Vladin Hearthfire in the history of the Third Age, has shone in this realm of knowledge.
Although the light of history was eventually hidden under the dust of time. (To be continued.) )
