“Gasp! Just what have we been saying… We might have been deceived, but that still doesn’t justify our behavior of finding faults with a lady’s looks!”
“A-As expected of the commanding officer… He is a knight among knights, indeed.”
“Yeah. He is being this composed even when the before and after are so shockingly different.”
“We still have a long way to go, huh. I can’t believe our emotions got so easily swayed by the enemy’s appearance.”
The young knights condemned and reflected on their own immaturity. Protecting a lady is what matters in the world of chivalry.
In that respect, the commanding officer who had never uttered any criticism was unmistakably a knight among knights.
“...This is, in its own way… not bad… Rather, nice. Amazingly nice… It’s just nice… Super nice!”
The whispers of the commanding officer, who would turn 50 years old next month, were luckily not heard by the young knights.
[Old Man Hoi Hoi]
Joanna, who took the appearance of Tanaka Minato, Emma’s past identity, had unconsciously activated a special ability that Joanna herself didn’t know existed.

“U-Ughhh.”
-Barony of Skyte, the forest near the barrier roamed by monsters-
After going on a rampage due to being affected by a monster’s ability, the most valuable existence in the Kingdom, the King, was stopped by Koumei’s cat punch and stripped of all he had by Emma. Now, he had finally shown signs of waking up.
“Your Majesty!”
“E-Emma-chan?”
When the King regained consciousness, what first appeared in his line of vision was the Kingdom’s frailest Count’s daughter, who wasn’t supposed to be there.
“W-Why are you in a place like this?!”
“Thank god, your berserk has also been cured♡.”
‘Ufufu…’ With the brightest smile that seemed out of place in this dangerous forest, she peered into his face while caressing his chest gently.
“Your Majesty became a little… considerably… quite violent due to a monster’s ability.”
Leonard, who had regrouped with the others, moved before the King from behind Emma, looking relieved. Leonard tried to persuade his daughter to stay away because it would be dangerous if the King was still in a berserk state when he woke up, but she refused to leave his side, so Leonard was tense the moment the King woke up.
“Lady Emma looked after His Majesty with such devotion… She’s an angel.”
“She didn’t leave His Majesty’s side no matter how Count Leonard dissuaded her that it was dangerous…”
“Yeah, she never stopped massaging His Majesty’s body while he was unconscious…”
Skyte hunters and the knights assigned as King’s guards sang the praises of Emma’s action in unison.
The King’s rampage was considerably dangerous. Even after witnessing it, Lady Emma showed no signs of fear and always took care of him with a smile on her face.
“Sure enough, isn’t Lady Emma the real Holy Maiden?”
Disagreeing with the church's announcement was a dangerous statement that could make them be treated as heretics, but everyone there nodded.
…No, except for two people.
It was George and William.
“...Nee-sama, she stubbornly refused to leave the muscles… I mean, His Majesty’s side, didn’t she?”
“...That girl, she kept denying so strongly that she wasn’t a h̲o̲r̲n̲y maiden… but the fact that she even misheard it must have also been because she had too much self-awareness.”
The two brothers, with their neverending hardships, had an indescribable scowl on their faces.

-At the same time, the Empire-
The chief delegate, who had returned from the Kingdom's social season, clad himself in custom-made silver armor. His obese body shook as he tried to stifle his laughter.
“Mwahahaha. With this, the Kingdom shall meet its end. By this time, the royal capital is in a state of ruin, and the whole kingdom will be seized by my Imperial Army."
*whoom*
The enormous magic circle shone.
[Teleportation magic circle]: a technique created with the Empire’s prestige on the line, which made it possible to transport one army at a time by utilizing large amounts of magic stones.
The exit of the magic circle was in the Kingdom.
It took them many years to set it up in a borderland territory where no one would ever enter.
If the Empire had used the magic stones for this magic circle for the barrier, they wouldn't have found themselves in such a dire corner. But that mattered no longer.
If they ran out of something, they could just snatch it from somewhere else.
Be it magic stones, magicians, or beauties.
Artillery on the sea and the Imperial Army on land.
The Kingdom had nowhere to escape.
“Mwahahaha. All for the Empire! The Kingdom shall be sacrificed. Oh, I can’t wait… Count’s daughter Emma Stuart, was it? I wonder what kind of face will the pure girl extolled as a Holy Maiden make when she is defiled… Oh, I can’t wait.”

Author’s corner:
Crisis: Serious, it’s your turn on stage! This is not the time to have a nosebleed!
Serious: Ah, wait, Crisis! Damn it, why can’t my nosebleed stop?!”
Rom-com Geeky Lady: Fukushima x Magician (with the appearance of a pretty boy)... They both can be a verse…
Comedy: …A showdown between perverts, the chief delegate VS our MC?
