For a moment, my eyes turned bright red.

A warm, red liquid.

It covered her, spreading out gorgeously like a flower in bloom.

There was no fear.

No matter what situation I was in, the anger I was feeling right now seemed like it could easily swallow everything up.

But soon after that, Katlena realized.

No matter how angry she was, it was impossible.

The fear was more terrifying than she had imagined.

Katlena sat down in her seat, bitterly regretting her foolishness and arrogance.

It wasn’t because of the pain.

No, there was no such pain as she had expected in the first place.

And for that she could not be more grateful.

If something like that happened…

Maybe something even more terrifying was happening right before her eyes.

“Ah..ahh… .”

Katlena was speechless as she watched the scene before her eyes.

A boy named Desley stands in front of her.

A violent tyrant swinging a club inside the warehouse, and the target of Katlena’s hatred until a split second ago.

But now, there was no trace of the ferocity he had shown just a moment ago.

Now, there was just a pig about to be slaughtered, rolling on the floor and crying.

“Kweeek!!!!!!”

An ugly beast writhing in pain, clutching its own wrist that was torn off alive.

Blood spurted out like a fountain, and at the same time, Desley began to scream and roll around on the floor like a madman, screaming in agony.

But at that moment, Katlena’s gaze was not on Desley, who was writhing and screaming.

What she was seeing was the being that turned the situation here upside down in that split second.

The being that is holding one of Dezley’s wrists, from which blood is gushing out, without changing its expression at this very moment and without saying a word.

“Uh… Sister…?”

In a voice full of shock and fear, Katlena called out to her… her older sister, Elios.

“It’s a little late.”

Elios speaks in a cold, small voice

Looking at that sight, Katlena began to feel a chill down her spine once again.

‘Sir… No way… You’re not saying that because you’re angry at me for coming late… Are you?’

Even Katlena knew that it was a bit excessive to think that way…

To be honest, she was secretly a little bit hurt because the reason all this started was because she wanted to spend as little time with her sister as possible.

Although she had avoided getting her head kicked by Dezley thanks to her sister, Katlena was honestly thinking that it would have been better if she had just gotten hit like that and lost consciousness.

The sight of my sister, who was wearing armor right in front of me and radiating a crazy murderous aura.

The sight of her barely buried trauma being vividly brought back to life again was enough to give Katlena a terrifying feeling of fear that made her feel like her heart was going to burst.

If the target of that murder had been Katlena herself, she would have fainted right away.

After looking at Katlena, who was frozen in place and unable to say anything.

Elios’ gaze turned to Desley, who was rolling around on the floor.

“Where on earth did that piece of trash dare to come from..”

As soon as he finished saying that, Elios threw the wrist he was holding onto at Dezley.

Seeing her act like this, not only Desley was still rolling on the floor in pain, but the other gang members who were sitting on the floor and watching the situation were also unable to do anything and just trembled in fear.

The very image of a mouse literally placed in front of a dragon

At that moment, an urgent voice began to be heard from the half-broken warehouse door.

“Eh… Helios? What…what the heck is this…”

Standing there were Garnold and the other teachers with astonished expressions.

Without even looking at them, Elios spoke in a voice dripping with cold air.

“These guys were trying to harm the princess’s body. Surely… besides these idiots, there isn’t anyone among you who doesn’t know what that means? ”

“That..that kind of….”

Garnold mutters, his face drained of color at Elios’ words.

However, in this situation, she could not make any more excuses.

What you see before your eyes are Desley’s gang sitting there, holding clubs.

In between, there was a boy who appeared to be a guard, still lying on the floor in pain, and a noble girl and Arachne sitting on the floor, shaking with terrified expressions.

It was obvious to anyone that the Dezley gang was trying to harm the noble girl.

In this situation, no one came to defend Desley, who was bleeding from a torn wrist.

No matter how young she was, a commoner tried to beat up a noble, and a weak girl, with several men. And according to the law, this is…

“Now that this has happened… If I kill them all here, no one will say anything, right?”

Elios speaks calmly without changing his expression.

Immediately afterwards, she drew the sword she had on her waist without hesitation.

At this, the pain that had been engraved on Desley’s face suddenly turned into fear and despair,

The same was true for the other gang members who were with him.

“Wait a minute! We… We… We were wrong! I… I really didn’t know it would turn out like this! We were just playing a little prank with our friends…”

“I… didn’t mean to harm you, Princess! I… I just had a misunderstanding because I was with that guy!”

“Sa..Please save me! Please! I won’t do this again! Please!”

Desley and the children begin to beg, kneeling before Elios’ feet.

In particular, Desley was hanging on, squeezing her eyes shut and snot, with the sole thought that she had to survive even in extreme pain.

Even though I didn’t know, I knew that the person in front of me was an adult with more power than the director.

And in a situation where such an adult threatened to kill him, he could also recognize that it would become a reality.

A change of position that occurred in an instant.

However, they were infinitely strong in front of children, and bowing their heads and licking feet in front of adults was as natural to them as breathing.

Looking at the children desperately clinging to him like beasts begging, Elios opened his mouth quietly, still holding his sword.

“Just a joke.. Now that I hear it, that’s true too..”

“Ah!..”

At Elios’ words, hope began to appear on the children’s faces for a moment.

She, who had been emitting a murderous aura that made it seem like she might swing her sword at any moment, changed her mood slightly.

Although they lacked a lot of common sense, they were children who could quickly grasp this kind of atmosphere.

Recognizing that fact, they began to hope that perhaps they might be able to survive.

And then, turning his gaze to those children, Elios turned his cold gaze towards Garnold.

“Looks like these kids think this is a joke. What do you think, Director?”

“Huh? What…what is that…”

A question that suddenly flies towards you.

At this, Garnold began to feel confused and heavy fear.

‘What… What? Why are you asking me that? Are you… Are you testing me right now? To find out if I’m connected to this?’

At this very moment, she saw the boy holding his broken arm between a broken wooden sword and a wooden club.

In addition, this warehouse was sealed off from the outside world.

Even some children are still holding the club in their hands without any sense,

It was definitely not a situation where a joke could be seen as an accident.

And, if a commoner is wrongly implicated in this incident where he tried to beat a princess to that degree, it would naturally be difficult for her to survive.

Also, Elios is a problem, but if this fact were to reach the ears of the Duchess, the princess’s mother, it might be a situation where it would be better for him to die.

In other words, Garnold decided that for her, the only way to survive was to somehow draw a line in the sand regarding this matter.

‘Yeah… In the first place, who cares if those guys die or not? I can always get new ones to use as hunting dogs. Here, even if all those guys die, my priority is to survive without getting hurt.;

After so quickly exploring what he thought would be a favorable path for him, Garnold spoke to Elios in a rather serious voice.

“No, no matter how I look at it, it seems hard to see it as a joke, my lady.”
