Volume 15 Chapter 4 At That Time, In The 'Shield Of The Holy Emperor'
SIDE: Lily
On that day, the noblewoman and hero candidate from the Uralis Kingdom, Martina Geera, visited the adventurer guild 'Shield of the Holy Emperor'.
Lily and her junior, Margaret, were talking with her in the lobby.
"So, what brings you to us?"
Lily asked Martina straight up.
"We're not just sitting around twiddling our thumbs, you know? There better be a good reason."
Margaret chimed in assertively.
"Of course. We need the strength of both of you."
Martina replied with a bright smile.
Though her smile was warm, her eyes were serious.
A determined glint shone in them.
"After defeating the Light Dragon King, peace should've returned to the world. The threat should be gone... right?"
"Yeah, the Light Dragon King situation is sorted out. But――"
Martina locked eyes with Lily.
"The world's threat... it's not just the Light Dragon King."
"...!"
Lily gasped.
She remembered.
She remembered the duo who appeared when they once battled the Light Dragon King――Deeta and Cyril.
Martina began to explain.
A group with supernatural powers, just like Rain――
The Uralis Kingdom investigated Deeta and Cyril, discovering their existence.
But the details remain a mystery.
"So, Martina-san, Rain-sama is getting dragged into a big fight... is that it?"
Lily asked, her expression tense.
"Yeah. Worried, huh?"
"Yes, I know how strong Rain-sama is, but... if the enemy also has supernatural powers..."
Lily cleared her throat softly.
"I want to help too."
"Sure thing, we're comrades after all. I'll lend a hand too."
And, Margaret chimed in.
"If Lily-senpai is motivated, then count me in too."
"Yeah. Me too."
Martina nodded.
"I want to fight alongside Rain-kun. It's not just about being a hero against world enemies, but as Martina Geera herself."
"Because they're not the enemy of the world, huh? No, maybe..."
Martina said as if she had an idea.
"Maybe they are the enemy of the world..."
