A TRAITOR?!? Hannes said in shock

Are you really sure about that, Sir Roku? What makes you think that there is a traitor among my people? The king asked me shocked

And shortly after I brought up the subject, everyone in the room was visibly shocked.

Are you sure Roku? Maria asked me

Sniff, sniff yes roku sniff sniff are you sure Rifa who was still crying asked me

,, I noticed it during the fight against the bandits, say who knew about Alifa's journey? '' I asked King Albert.

Well everyone here present in the room and a few of King Marx his people, but now please explain to me how you came to this conclusion?

,, These bandits who attacked us were no ordinary bandits, after taking a closer look at one of them, I saw that all of them had good equipment. But not only that, how did they know where the princess was, or that she was a princess? ‘’

I see where this is going, but couldn't it all have been coincidences? Landros asked me

,, I actually thought so at the beginning, before I noticed something else. ''

And what? Emelie asked me

,, Bandits are cowards, they only attack when they are 100% sure that they will win, because they either outnumber you or they are sure that their target is weaker. But after I killed the first few bandits, they must have noticed that they have no chance against me. And yet they kept attacking us despite knowing that they had no chance against me. And if there is one thing bandits love more than money, it is their own lives. ''

Roku is right, your highness, Itomi said suddenly.

Itomi? Asked the king

Bandits are cowards, they wouldn't fight a battle they can't win, as Roku said, they love their own lives more than money. So it's really strange that they just threw their lives away like that. Said Itomi to King Albert

,, But what brought me to this theory was the testimony of one of the bandits. When I questioned one of them, he said that they had been hired by a man who had also told them where the princess was. ''

WHAT? said everyone in the room in shock.

,, and considering how persistent the bandits were, I'm sure it's not over yet. ''

You mean? asked the king

,, That's right, the whole thing is not over yet, they will surely try it again. ''

BUT THIS IS MADNESS WE ARE HERE IN THE ELF KINGDOM AND-

HANNES! suddenly shouted Landros

Roku is right, if they were so persistent before, don't you think it is possible that they will try it again, even if they have to enter the elven kingdom? Landros asked Hannes.

If-if that's the case, we should cancel it, Your Highness, said Hannes, looking at King Albert.

Hannes you know that is impossible, this meeting will decide the future of the whole world. Said King Albert sighing

,, What do you mean by that? After my fight against Otto, you also mentioned something similar. ''

...Tell me, Sir Roku, what do you know about the demons? the king asked me

,, mhh not much, only that there was a war because of them and that they tried to destroy the world. ''

That's right, and you must have noticed that there are more and more demon sightings lately?

,, Yes, you mentioned that. ''

Sigh, then you know that the barrier over the demon territory is getting weaker and weaker?

,, Uh, no, this is the first I've heard about it. ''

Then you probably also don't know that the fact that the barrier is getting weaker and weaker means that it is about to break completely? The king asked me

,, No, I didn't know that either.

I thought so, you know, this meeting is supposed to be about this very topic and what we should do about this threat. For that reason, I have invited the leaders of all the major nations to discuss it. Now do you understand why I cannot cancel such an important meeting? I love my daughter, but this is about the fate of the whole world," said the king with a serious look.

,, I see, so your hands are tied. ''

But still I don't have a good feeling about this, your highness, to hold such a meeting while Lady Alifa is exposed to such danger, said Maria.

Maria is right darling, I know how important this meeting is for the whole world, but what are you going to do about the bandits then? What if they attack again just as Sir Roko said? Queen Julia asked her husband

Don't worry, I have to admit that I was thinking about something similar to what Sir Roku said, and I have already taken all the important measures. From today on, the forests around the Elven Kingdom will be guarded by the Royal Assassins every day without a break. Furthermore, Hannes will position his troops at all important spots in the kingdom and make sure that no one sneaks in unnoticed. Which brings me finally to you Roku said the king while looking at me

,, What do you mean by that? '' I asked him

I know you have already done so much for me, my daughter and the kingdom, but I would like to ask you one more favor. On this special day, I would like to have someone as Alifa's personal bodyguard who will not leave her side, I would like to ask you to do that Sir Roku? Said King Albert

,, ha it would be my pleasure to take care of Alifa,'' I said to King Albert.

....

,, Mhh? King Albert. '' I said as he suddenly started to sweat and shake.

U-And there is one more thing, would you maybe play Alifa her husband on that day? King Albert asked while bowing to me.

,, of course- WAIT WHAT? ''

PAPA? what does that mean alifa shouted

Well...so...you know maybe it is possible that I told the other leaders that I want to introduce them to my daughter's husband and....i-

Honey.... Queen Julia said disappointedly

What was I supposed to do, do you know how it is when I have to hear all the time, when is Alifa going to get married, when are you going to introduce us to Alifa's husband? I accidentally said that Alifa already has a husband, and now the others are looking forward to meeting him," said King Albert, and started to cry.

Your Highness.... said all present in the room confused

,, Don't worry your highness, you can count on me. ‘’ I said to him

REALLY sniff, sniff YOU REALLY ARE AN ANGEL sniff, sniff THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR ROKU said the king and started to hug me before he immediately came back to himself

Well then it is settled, Thomas until then I want you to stay by Alifa's and not leave her side, understand? Said King Albert to the butler next to Alifa

Don't worry your highness

Hannes, Landross you two know what to do?

If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

YES YOUR HIGHNESS

Yes said Landros and Hannes and then both left the room

Now, Maria, I want you and the others to polish up the castle, understand?

Of course your highness come girls there is a lot to do said Maria and left the room together with the others.

Itomi I know you were supposed to leave tomorrow but would you please stay until the meeting is over? It would be good to have strong adventurers like you to protect us, you will of course get food and a place to stay from me said King Albert.

OF COURSE THAT IS THE LEAST WE CAN DO FOR OUR MISTAKE said Itomi and hit his head on the ground again

IHAHA YOU FUCKING IDIOT I HEALED YOU JUST RECENTLY Lilia shouted and left the room together with Itomi who was bleeding again along with the others.

Emelie I would ask you to put a barrier over the castle so that no one unauthorized can enter it said King Albert to Emelie

Of course your highness Emelie said and left the room, but before that she turned to me and smiled at me like before with a creepy smile and left the room.

And now to you Sir Roku you have the most important role, protecting Alifa and acting as her husband, I count on you " said King Albert.

Well then, there is still a lot to do, now if you will excuse me, said the king and left the room.

After King Albert left the room, there were only me, Alifa, Queen Julia and Thomas in the room when suddenly Alifa called my name.

Uh Roku

,, Yes, what is it? '' I said to her and turned around.

Why are you doing this? She asked me

,, What do you mean? ''

First you save my life, and now you agree to protect me and even act as my husband. Even though we hardly know each other, and you know nothing about me, you do all this for me, why? Alifa asked me, looking at the floor.

But Alifa was right, to be honest I don't know either why I was helping them, if it was up to my old self I would have refused and I wouldn't have cared about them. So why am I acting so strangely? I said to myself, looking at Alifa before putting my hand on her head.

Huh?

,, It's true I hardly know you and there are many who would have refused to help and wouldn't have cared about you. In fact you are just a unknown girl that I helped, nothing more, nothing less. I said to her with cold eyes and a calm voice.

THAN WHY-

,, But you know, that doesn't mean that I don't want to help you or that you don't mean anything to me. ''

Uh-huh, but why? She asked again

,, Do we really always need a reason to help other people? I asked Alifa, stroking her head.

After I said that, Alifa looked me in the eye and had a big smile on her face.

Thank you Roku she said and went up on her toes before...

Kiss

She kissed me on my cheek.

,, Uh A-Alifa? '' I asked Alifa but she had no idea what she had just done either.

But before I could ask her again, she ran out of the room while screaming.

OHH WAIT FOR ME LADY ALIFA Thomas shouted after Alifa and also ran out of the room.

Ara ara what's the matter Sir Roku you look so pale Queen Julia said with a dirty grin

,, I-I don't know what you are talking about. '' I answered her and tried to avoid eye contact with her.

Haha thank you Sir Roku for all you have done and will do, for me as Alifa's mother it is comforting to know that she has chosen a man like you. You know Alifa has always had problems with love, my husband once tried to set her up with other nobles her age. But it always ended with the boy running out of the room crying, so to see Alifa in love for the first time makes me happy. For this reason Sir Roku suddenly said Queen Julia, before she approached me.

,, Of course I will. ''

Kiss

...

,, WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOUR HIGHNESS? '' I said in shock as she also kissed me on the cheek.

Oh right, now I have to run out of the room like a little child ihaaa," said the queen, while slowly running out of the room.

,, What just happened? I asked myself as only I was left in the room.

...

,, I just wanted to have some adventures. ''

Not again...

,, Marriage? Playing the husband, why that? ''

Shut up and don't bother me with your mid life crisis what's more important, I found out something about the mask and the cloak Sara suddenly says

,, sigh... and what? ''

It was hard, but I removed the block on the mask and the cape and from the looks of it, both things are indeed magical items. The cape acts as a kind of armor and protects you from magic attacks of any kind. But the mask fascinated me the most, because as it looks it makes the wearer stronger the stronger his own emotions are.

,, Huh, what does that mean? '' I asked Sara

....

I also do not know exactly

,, What does that mean, I don't know exactly? '' I asked sara annoyed

Well, the part about it making you stronger the stronger your emotions are is clear, but I don't know what kind of emotions they are. Anger? Joy? Fear? It could be anything, maybe it doesn't matter which emotion it is.

,, I see, and did you find out anything else? ''

Yes the mask and cape were apparently created in a dungeon, in fact its the same dungeon you were in.

,, Then my next quest is clear, find out everything about this mask and cape, but first I should do what I've wanted to do since I've been her. ''

And that would be?

,, Finally join a guild and do quests of course, is there one here in town? '' I asked sara

Yes of course there are adventurer guilds in town, but I would suggest you put on this cape and mask so you don't have to jump from rooftop to rooftop" said sara.

,, Yes, that would be a good idea. I said and put on the mask and cape.

After that I went back to the entrance, left the castle and went into the city looking for a guild. The search for one turned out to be more difficult than I thought, so I asked a few elves on the street and finally got to the adventurers' guild. As I stood in front of the guild I saw a sign outside that said

You want to join the Adventurers Guild? Then come in and sign up

So there I was, just one step away from my dream of finally becoming an adventurer, doing quests and finally having fun. I gathered all my courage and slowly grabbed the door handle with my right hand before pushing it down and walking into the guild.

HEY, HEY, HEY WHO DO WE HAVE HERE?

,, Huh? '' I asked myself as suddenly 2 titans spoke to me and approached me

CAN WE HELP YOU WITH SOMETHING?! One of them asked me

,, ah I would like to join the guild. ‘’ I said quietly

I DIDN'T HEAR YOU, HEY GANZ DID YOU HEAR WHAT HE SAID?!

I think he said he would like to join the guild Hanz

HAHAHA THIS CHILD WANTS TO JOIN THE GUILD THAT I DON'T LAUGH the other one said

Do you know what it means to join a guild? HUH said the other one before he approached me

Do you think you will have fun and go on adventures here? said Ganz before kicking me in the stomach with his foot.

,, Ahh.'' I said in pain and fell to the ground.

It's like Ganz said, if you want to join the guild because you think it's going to be fun or you want to have adventures then you better leave, this is no place for kids said Hanz who was much calmer now before he grabbed me by the hair and pulled me up.

HEY YOU BOTH WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING Suddenly a female voice shouted before I could see a woman approaching me and the two of them

YOU STAY OUT OF THERE ALINA said Ganz to the girl

Believe me boy it would be the best for you if you would just leave or I will make you leave

HAHAHA he is right boy get the fuck out one of the other adventurers suddenly said before everyone in the room started laughing

HAHAHHAH

....

HAHA

...

Dark Aura

Uhh?

,,What's going on, why are you shaking? '' I asked Hanz whose arm with which he grabbed me started to tremble. ''

Shortly afterwards, he dropped me down and everyone in the room stopped laughing, including the group at the table in the far right corner, which immediately caught my attention first. As everyone in the room stopped laughing I looked at Hanz who was visibly scared and grabbed his face with my hand and used Inhuman strength.

IHAAA AHHH MY HEAD AHHHHH I'M SORRY AHHH

,, I don't care who you are, I don't care what the consequences will be and I don't care about your life. If you do this again I will kill you. ‘’ I said to him and started to crush his face harder.

AHHH OK, OK, OK I'M SORRY REALLY PLEASE FORGIVE ME AHHH

While I continued to crush Hanz's face I heard the female voice again so I looked in front and saw the woman wanting to say something to me but was too scared. After I saw that I let go of Hanz who was now in the air before he fell to the ground and was immediately unconscious. After that I looked at Ganz who was also unconscious on the ground probably because of my Dark Aura. When I approached the woman, however, I looked back at the table I saw earlier and saw that the whole group was smiling, while everyone else in the room didn't even look at me because of fear.

I'm really sorry about that, I didn't mean to scare you. '' I said to the woman and gave her my hand.

Oh ha-ha it's not like you started it, she said and took my hand. I suppose you are here to join our guild, aren't you? She asked me

,, That's right. ‘’

Then follow me please she said and we both went to the counter where she introduced herself to me.

By the way, I am Alina and I am responsible for almost everything here in the guild.

I'm glad to meet you Alina I'm RO- ''

Mh? Ro?

,, uhh ro-ro Rotu yes Rotu ha-ha ''

Ha then welcome to our guild Rotu please wait a moment I will go and get all the necessary papers for your registration said Alina before she turned around and opened a cabinet

,, .... ''

,, Rotu... I had the chance to choose a cool name and I decided to choose Rotu... ''

So please fill out this paper said Alina

,, What is this? I asked her

This allows us to get an idea of your skills, it's just a formality, the actual exam takes place afterwards.

,,mhh Would it be possible to skip this and go straight to the test. ''

Uhh that's not possible that's-

Hahaha why not said suddenly a male voice

But toujou you know the rules that-

Forget about the rules, I saw the spectacle myself and I can't wait to fight this guy.

,, What do you mean? ''

It means you're going to fight me Rotu, but let me tell you, there's only one man in the whole elven kingdom who's better with the sword than me, and by the looks of your weapon it looks bad for you...
