Chapter 245

She used her petite body to run around in the crowd, making a toddler fall over to stop the ones chasing her, and while she was stealing fruit from the stall and biting it, smiling as usual, she noticed a group of dozens of people chasing after me before she knew it.

“It’s not my fault!!!!”

Still accustomed to running away from unpleasant things, Ester, dizzy, made it to the mansion that Silver Church was renting.

“It’s me, hurry up and open up!!!”

“…E, Ester-sama?”

Frustrated by the [charm] that for some reason didn’t activate, she entered the mansion to Chimera the remaining squires,

“Hey, Ester, Yurushia told me that you are coming back, but you really came this way.”

“Oh, Brother Axel!”

Axel was waiting for her in the entrance hall with a group of women under his command.

“Oh, brother! That Yurushia has killed my followers! The Silver Church must raise a serious protest to the Holy Kingdom!”

“You’ve gone too far, Ester.”

As if to interrupt Ester’s words, Axel points his sword at his blood sister.

“I’ve already reported what you did to the authorities. I told you to avoid using that thing. I’m going to keep quiet about the existence of that thing, but you still have to pay a lot of money for it. If the Queen gives you to the Holy Kingdom as is, there will be trouble later, so she’s sending Rose over in a hurry to retrieve you.”

“Rose? Why that useless child?”

Rose was the youngest princess adopted by the Queen, the second princess, one step younger than Ester.

Ester’s impression of Rose was that she was a bit reserved, with little speech and expression, and her dark blue hair made a dark impression on Ester, and when they went out to parties together, Ester was the only one who came to the parties.

Even for Axel, the youngest sister was surprisingly unimpressive, and like her older brother, the first prince, he thinks that she cannot be an enemy in the struggle for the succession.

“I don’t know if Rose will be of any use to Yurushia, but I’m afraid I’m going to have to hide you until then, so just keep quiet and don’t do anything more.”

“Ah, but…”

Even if she went back to Silver Church, she would be confined for the rest of her life. As Axel’s followers approach to catch Ester, Ester watched with alarm as they reach into their pockets and brace herself.

Zubibi!!!

“It’s terrible that you all torment me!!!!!!!”

“”””Ah”””

Tearfully biting a handkerchief, Ester fled again in a moment of dismay and ran towards the gate.

What was she going to do now that she had escaped? Ester, who had no such thoughts in her mind and just wanted to escape from the unpleasantness, was interrupted by a figure on a black horse appearing behind the gate.

“Oh, is that you, Sister Ester?”

“Rose?”

Rose, dressed in a female knight’s ceremonial dress and mounted on a horse, looked down at Ester with a cold gaze.

Even if Axel contacted Silver Church a few days ago, it was too early for her to come. No, the trip itself could be shortened as much as possible with unlimited use of magic or magical tools if money was not an issue, but Ester glared at Rose for showing up here just in time as well as for feeling disrespected by her sister who had been making fun of her.

“My big sister is stupid.”

“What! Rose!”

Ester involuntarily stepped back as Rose dismounted from her horse and smiled a cold, doll-like smile.

Ester was surprised to see that Rose had such a beautiful face, but Rose quietly said,

“I have a message from the Queen.”

At that moment, Ester, sensing Axel’s followers chasing after her from behind, tried to escape through Rose’s side.

*Dosa.

“…Eh? …Ah…”

Rose’s hand sword digs into Ester’s heart area and pulled out as if to take something from her, and Ester collapses like a puppet with broken strings.

“I don’t need you anymore.”

The last thing Ester saw in her eyes as her consciousness was enveloped in darkness was Rose’s demonic eyes, glowing crimson.
