Rewind to hours ago......

In the evening, the soft setting sun brings a sparkle of madder to the port of Moroch.

[Dear Leah, I heard that you and the princess are about to return home, and Carlisle and I are looking forward to meeting you...... It's okay here, don't worry. 】

Leona was sitting in her room, writing a letter to Mage City.

Putting down the pen in her hand, she folded the letter and put it in the envelope, dripping fire paint on the seal, and then printing it with a beautiful coat of arms.

If a certain Lori sees this scene, she will definitely sigh that the silly girl who used to be has begun to become mature and aristocratic.

But even if the person is not here, when she receives the letter, from the words and sentences in the letter to the coat of arms on the fire paint, you can also see the growth of the other party, and the fact that she was even promoted to baron.

The weather was fine today, and Leona walked out of the barn and into the street outside the castle. She took a day off to relieve the fatigue of days of fighting.

Even so, on this day when war could break out at any time, even if you go out, you don't dare to leave the castle too far.

After she sent the letter, she went to the tea shop she frequented on weekdays, where someone was waiting for her. ???: "So, I have an appointment with someone else." And even if I didn't, I'd be not interested in playing with you. ”

As soon as she arrived at the door, she encountered a small commotion.

The protagonists of the commotion are two knights and a maiden with short hair. Yes, if Leona didn't know each other, she would definitely think of him as a "girl".

"Don't say that, rather than wait for a guy who threw a lovely lady like you here. Why don't you go to the revue with us?"

The two knights didn't seem to be about to give up.

"Oops......"

Leona smiled bitterly, if it was her when she was in the Demon Martial Arts Academy. I'm afraid I've stepped forward and kicked the two of them away by now.

However, following the Iron Wing Knights for so long, she has more or less adapted to the men's stalking. What's more, at the moment, the two of them are just inviting the "girl" to watch the song and dance. It's not a big deal if you don't move your hands and feet.

"Alright, you two, there's an appointment here. ”

But even so, it would have been a long time for the three men to continue messing around, so she stepped forward and stood between Carlisle and the two knights.

"What, it's the captain. ”

"In that case, do you want to go with the captain, we are very welcome to have a cute girl like the captain!"

These two are Leona's subordinates, and now the girl is also well-known in the group. Not only is he cute, but he is also very skilled, and he is one of the best celebrities in the Knights, and even the Duke of Arman is quite trusted.

"I refuse, it's tea party time for the ladies next, so don't be with stinky men!"

These two are newcomers who have just been transferred to the Iron Wing Knights some time ago, so they don't know anything about Carlisle's pseudo-maiden attributes. However, Leona is not going to explain much, and the more you explain after a long period of experience. The more complicated it will become.

"Oh, then I wish the captain and this lady a great time!"

"Let's go, Captain!"

The two, who know a little about their captain, know that stalking can be subject to pay cuts, double training, or beatings. So he simply left.

"Whew...... Thanks, Leona. ”

Carlisle let out a long sigh of relief. No matter how many times he has experienced it, he is still very bad at dealing with this kind of accosting from the same sex.

"It doesn't matter. Never mind. And ah, I'm more or less accustomed to being Miss Carlyle's flower messenger. ”

Leona stuck out her tongue playfully.

"Woo......"

Poor little Shota wanted to refute. But I don't know what to say.

The two of them came out to celebrate—to celebrate the Iron Wing Knights' recent victories, thwarting the Holy Cult's repeated attacks.

As the right-hand man of the Duke of Arman. No one knows better than Carlisle and Leona how hard it is for the Britt family to be today. The death of their father, Duke Charlie Britt, and the fatal blow was given by the poisoning of the tournament. After that, the family fell into a political trough, and then lost a series of wars with the Holy Sect, and finally led a super family to become precarious.

But now, things finally have room to ease, and with the efforts of Duke Arman, Carlisle, Leona and others, they have figured out the enemy's modus operandi, summed up a lot of experience in dealing with the magic of the Holy Light, and shared it with every soldier, and finally, the war began to turn for the better.

Although the situation in the court is still not optimistic, in the war years, as long as the soldiers can get the results of the war, those politicians who are only good at lip service will not be able to shake anything.

This is best evidenced by the fact that His Majesty the King handed over the port of Moroch, the main sea route between Randall and the Holy Kingdom of Salman, to the Duke of Arman.

In fact, the Duke did not disappoint anyone, although the knights were not experts in naval warfare, as can be guessed from the profession of Carlyle's archers, in addition to the knights, the Duke of Arman had a well-armed army of archers and ballistas.

With such a team, it is almost impossible for Salman Holy Cult to land in Molok Harbor, let alone even if they land, what awaits them is the murderous Iron Wing Knights.

In this way, the Duke of Arman turned Moroch Harbor into a steel fortress, causing the Holy Church to return with hatred countless times.

"Although the current situation is good, we must not be careless, Moloch Harbor carries the honor and hope of the Order. ”

Carlisle took a sip of black tea and said.

"Well, you have to keep it no matter what. ”

Leona nodded.

In fact, garrisoning Moroc Harbor is a double-edged sword - holding on here, no one can underestimate the Iron Wing Knights from now on. But on the contrary, if it fails, the blame may be unbearable.

"I'm back, the line at the harbor is a little uneasy, it's been a long time since the last Holy Cult attack, and I'm worried that the guards are starting to loosen. ”

Even with the rare break, Carlisle's mind was still on the war.

"That's right, the more times like this, the more careless you can't be careless. ”

Leona nodded.

The two sat together and chatted for a while, and after enjoying delicious black tea and snacks, they said goodbye to each other and returned to their respective posts.

However, none of them expected that a new round of offensive would come so quickly.

A few hours later, the guards stationed at the harbor watchtower witnessed a strong glow on the surface of the sea in the middle of the night!

【Enemy Attack!】

For a moment, alarm bells rang out in everyone's minds. However, this is only "for a moment".

"Hey, what's that?"

"Giant Cross of Light, it can't be from the Holy Sect Country, right?"

"Oh, so the Holy Cult is coming? That's terrible. Hey, get me some coffee. ”

With the rise of the Cross of Light, a scene that completely defies common sense appears at all the defenses of Moroch Harbor.

The sentries and guards were brewing coffee, pointing to the sailboats on the sea, but still talking and laughing, seemingly unconcerned about the impending danger, and not a single one of them intended to reach out and pull the alarm of the enemy attack, as if it were not the enemy at all.
