‘If you think about it, these people are really stupid. A hungry dragoness is knocking on their door, but rather than joining forces, they are trying to eat each other…’
Looking at it objectively, even though the situation made it seem very weak. Nevertheless, Hangury’s national power was not weakened to the point that it was irreversible.
As an antient powerhouse that has reigned in the area for hundreds of years, it had enough power to not be kicked around by the surrounding forces, including the Sakiel Knights. However, that would only be possible if there were adequate support and restoration of kings power.
‘In the original book, this situation created a great opportunity for the main character, Isaac, who helped them. But now that Isaac is missing, I’ll have no choice but to help them. In the process, I will make sure to make a lot of connections at the right places…’
Feeling anticipation for the dangerous yet interesting situation ahead, Bahamut looked at Ophelia, who was silently standing guard next to him.
Instead of the black sword she originally used, Ophelia was now carrying Carl’s Greatsword that he had gifted to her on her back. From Bahamut’s point of view, there couldn’t be anything more reassuring than the sight before him.
“Come to think of it. Are you getting used to that greatsword now?”
“Ah…yes, to be honest, I’ve never used a greatsword, so it was a bit awkward at first, but it seems to suit me surprisingly well. Now I can handle it without any major problems.”
“Good. as I’ve said before, you’ll probably have some work to do this time. So I’ll be counting on you.”
“Yes. I’ll do my best, Master.”
Ophelia looked a little happy at Bahamut’s words.
At that moment, Bahamut suddenly felt a slight doubt and asked her, “Hmm? Come to think of it…where did Isolda and her little secretary go?”
“Ah..them? After the meeting with the king earlier, they went out to take a walk…or so they said.”
“Is that so…”
Thinking of how depressed Isolda had been ever since the incident the other day, Bahamut began to pay attention more to her.
‘She should be back in a little while. So, I need to create an opportunity to appease her a little bit.’
Feeling sorry for the fact that he had gone a little overboard, Bahamut decided to quietly wait for Isolda to return.
***
Another private room located within the royal castle.
Yuria had led Isolda by the hand to the place where they could be alone, and have a talk.
“What is it? Why did you suddenly want to talk like this?”
“Um…”
Yuria made a pouty expression at Isolda’s words.
Regarding this, Isolda felt suspicious and asked her, “What? Is there any problem?”
“Yes, I have a very big problem.”
With those words, Yuria stretched out her finger toward Isolda.
Yuria spoke in a clear voice to Isolda, who thought her behavior was a little cute.
“Lady Isolda! Do you like Mister Bahamut?”
“Ehhh…what…”
Isolda lost her composure for a moment at the unexpected question that popped out of nowhere.
Looking at her reaction, Yuria continued talking.
“Don’t even think about hiding it! Even though I am young, I have eyes that can see. I don’t know about others, but I can see it clearly, as I am always by your side! I can see that Lady Isolda likes Mister Bahamut! And that it hasn’t been going well for you these days, that’s why you have been so depressed!”
“That…that’s…”
At Yuria’s words, Isolda let out a small sigh, recognizing that there was no point in making excuses anymore.
“Haahh…yes, you are right.”
“Hmph…I knew it!”
Yuria made a somewhat triumphant expression at Isolda’s confession.
In response, Isolda asked her with a slightly tired expression, “So, what now? Are you going to make fun of me? About the fact that a terrible woman like me is in love.”
“No, of course not. I just want to keep my promise.”
“A promise?”
“Yes! Didn’t I make a promise that I will help Lady Isolda when you are about to lose your way?”
“Yes, you did. But this matter is a little different from that… ”
“It’s not different at all! It comes up a lot in old stories, right? About the women who lost their way because they couldn’t succeed in love! If I leave it alone, there is no guarantee that Lady Isolda won’t lose her way like that!”
“Um…”
Isolda couldn’t give a response, as some of the stories suddenly popped into her head as well, and Yuia, who saw her expression, said with a confident voice.
“So don’t worry. No matter what, I will help Mister Bahamut and Lady Isolda get closer again.”
“What…what are you planning to do?”
“Huh, now listen…”
Yuria then told Isolda what she had planned, and after hearing what she had to say, Isolda’s face began to show a multitude of complex expressions.
‘It can work, but Yuria…you might be a scarier child than I thought…’
