She had to get Medea back into the game somehow.
'I just have to win. As long as I win again this time. It's okay.'
At that moment, without knowing that a smile appeared in Medea's green eyes and then disappeared.
The dark eyes of the evil Princess sparkled.
"Princess, do you mean to say that although your late father's honor is important, it doesn't matter whether the starving Valdina people die or not?"
Medea raised her head and stared at the Princess.
She remained calm. She exuded unwavering momentum as if she were facing a huge stone wall.
"Since you are staking the people of Valdina. I have no choice but to follow you."
Done!
The 4th Princess suppressed her desire to laugh out loud.
She said with a cruel look in her eyes.
"This time, General Jared will be out here on my behalf. Are you okay, General?"
The 4th Princess turned and stared at Jared.
Although he might have been taken aback by the unexpected behavior of the 4th Princess who was drawing him in, Jared nodded with an odd smile.
"C'mon, how could this guy turn down the opportunity to share a sword on behalf of Her Highness, the noble Princess?"
Medea gave a silent greeting to him, who was grinning sinisterly as if he were making fun of her.
'It's been a while, Jared.'
"Princess, if you enjoyed playing with fire with the Grand Duke, how about this guy? Let's do this among ourselves without him knowing, okay?"
A 10-star knight, he was a major general of Katzen who had been active since the reign of the Emperor. However, he was notorious for his debauchery and excessively cruel nature.
Even in his previous expedition, he was eagerly targeting Medea.
After being rejected by Medea several times, he soon developed a grudge.
It was common to put her in danger, such as tripping her or deliberately sending a magical beast towards her.
"Medea, please be patient. I know you're struggling. But Jared is essential for this expedition because we have to kill the light dragon. You can't go wrong with him."
So she endured it with great difficulty. Even though he harassed her and put her in danger. Medeq never once complained.
"Why is the Princess watching me so much? Is this beast-like appearance so cool? I can't believe you're mesmerized every time I lift the sword."
Because I want to slit your throat.
These were words Medeq swallowed inside herself every time.
But one day, as time passed, Jared's ever-evolving and vicious pranks finally turned towards Lian.
When she saw young Lian sitting on a jar full of poisonous snakes and throwing daggers at him as a target.
“Lian!”
"Mom, ugh!"
Medea could not stand it any longer.
"Are you crazy? Medea? What if you kill Jared? If Jared isn't there, who will kill the light dragon?"
"I almost lost Lian. Is that all you have to say to me?"
That day, Jared died painfully after drinking the poisonous drink that Medea had poured for him.
Jason was furious. His face was distorted for the first time she had ever seen him.
She swears she should have noticed then. Jason's disgusting and ugly nature.
"Both of you, don't get in trouble and leave. It was so hard to just flutter a little, so It's better not to have anything."
"I will kill the light dragon. Okay then?"
She should have left with her child. It's not about accomplishing her achievements on his behalf.
"Medea, you killed the bright dragon! You are truly amazing! Now the throne is ours!"
"Wow, Princess, how dare you. Gagging."
Medea raised her head.
Jared from his past life, who was dying in her hands, was superimposed on the current Jason watching this situation.
'Jared is cruel, but he's not stupid. Did someone so quick just target Lian for no reason?"
At that time, Jason had already been preparing to remove Medea near the end of the expedition.
Death appeared in the green eyes and then disappeared.
At that time, the 4th Princess asked as if she couldn't wait any longer.
"So, who will the Princess choose as your agent?"
The Valdina people's faces froze.
Currently, no one in VaIdina could stand against General Jared.
The 10-star talents are currently at war, and the old generals remaining in the castle have lost strength. Nothing can compare to Jared in his prime.
Medea looked around.
Among the crowd, she could see people from the Claudio family looking at this place like they were strangers.
Neril is going to win the match anyway.
She can't miss the opportunity to take off her uncle's mask.
“Samon.”
Medea turned and looked at Samоn.
"Help me, please. Save the people of Valdina for me, okay?"
Contrary to her polite appearances as a family member so far, she appeared to be a fragile person who seemed to trust and rely on.
The Duke of Regent was surprised.
How can Samon deal with that 10-star monster?
Medea, do you want me to send my son, just as he was when he was alive, in return for that?
"No. Medea!"
Claudio shouted loudly. It was the result of denial moving ahead of reason.
"Uncle...?"
Seeing Medea's puzzled expression, the Prince Regent finally came to his senses.
"Haha, my heart is like a chimney, but Samon seriously injured his leg while dancing a while ago. So, we won't be able to duel."
The Prince Regent had a sad expression on his face, saying that he could not bear to interfere with such an important matter as national interest was at stake.
"Yes, that's right. I'm sorry, Medea. If I hadn't had any aftereffects, I would have carried the honor on your behalf..."
Samon also had no desire to fight the 10-star general on Medea's behalf, so he quickly pretended to limp on one leg.
Why is a leg that has never been a problem before now becoming a problem?
It was a very flimsy excuse that was clearly intended to avoid confrontation.
The Valdina people who learned the true nature of the just and kind Regent were greatly disappointed.
He has been pretending to care for his niece so much, but now that his own son's safety is at stake, he abandons her without the slightest hesitation.
The Queen Mother also tried to suppress her rising sense of betrayal and anger.
'Medea fights against them alone for the sake of the country, but you say you will live alone..."
Medea also suppressed her laughter and glanced at Neril standing in the distance.
'I knew you guys would come out like that.'
She has already made all the preparations.
It was expected that the 4th Princess, who was unable to accept the result after the duel with her, would request a re-duel with Jared.
And today, in Medea's plan, Neril, a 7-star knight, will defeat Jared, a 10-star knight.
However, those who had no way of knowing her arrangements were keenly aware of who would be the Princess's representative.
Sissair, who was listening to Claudio and his wife's weak excuses, took off the watch on his wrist.
Beside him was a member of Facade's group who came up to congratulate the Princess on her victory a little while ago.
"What are you doing, Sissair?"
Cesare glanced down at him and said something to Gallo.
"Is it true that your brother is going to step forward? My brother may not know how to use his head, but he didn't know how to use his body. Even at the tower, face-to-face duels were weak. You can't go against that guy."
"...Bring me my armor."
Cesare pretended not to hear and ordered his servant.
Meanwhile, Jared became elated as Valdina rarely faced any opponents.
Look at the cowards from that small country who twitch like mice when they see me.
"Who will compete with me on behalf of the Princess of Valdina!"
Jared shouted arrogantly as he swept down his blade.
"If anyone comes forward, this body will accept it! Come out! Or do you want the noble Princess to receive my sword?"
In the meantime, there was also a line of harassment.
The Princess of Valdina will now deeply regret her mistake of not knowing and ignoring a warrior of the century like me. And she will tremble at the sight
of my majesty destroying her agent.
Jared was already filled with excitement at the thought of those beautiful green eyes being filled with fear.
"I ask for the last time. Is there really no one? Are there only worms in Valdina?"
Let Jared shout with full force. Medea winked at Neril.
Neril nodded and took a step forward.
Paaa-!
A golden dagger flew out and landed in front of Jared.
The facade's emblem was engraved on the scabbard.
"..."
The sound of the crowd suddenly stopped.
"I want to take over that duel."
Jared, who had been bragging excitedly, stiffened.
A mercenary with a white half-mask on the Facade was grinning at him.
