Trash of the Count's Family

The Royal Knight Captain shouted as soon as the fog arrived.

“Protect his majesty!”

He quickly jumped onto the platform and rushed toward King Bakehe.

Clang.

The king on top of the platform made a move as well. Bakehe, the great knight of the Sez Kingdom, pulled out his sword.

“Do not become anxious! Do not be scared!”

His majestic voice made the anxious students and academy staff subconsciously turn toward the platform.

“…I can’t see!”

“The fog-!”

However, people couldn’t even see the person next to them, let alone their king on top of the platform because of the thick fog.

Everybody could tell that this fog was not a natural phenomenon.

Someone had attacked the Sez Royal Academy!

Their goal was most definitely the king!

The citizens outside the academy gates gasped with astonishment while looking at the plaza inside that was white from the fog.

“W, what is that?”

“What kind of fog-”

The citizens at the distance were becoming frantic because they could not understand this sudden development.

Some people started shouting from all around at that moment.

“A, an enemy has attacked the academy!”

“They must be aiming for his majesty!”

“No! We must save his majesty!”

Those words became etched in people’s minds.

“This king is a knight!”

King Bakehe’s voice echoed through the area thanks to a magic amplification device once again.

“I am the Sez Kingdom’s greatest knight! I am a sword master! Just trust in my abilities!”

“Ah.”

Numerous people gasped in relief.

‘That’s right, our majesty is a sword master! He is the greatest knight!’

‘The Royal Knights Brigade and the mages are here too.’

‘I, I’m sure it’ll be taken care of soon!’

The citizens and the people stuck inside the fog all started to look relieved. They believed that nobody would be able to take down their king.

A couple of people slowly moved away from the plaza at that moment.

These people who had shouted just a moment earlier that they should save the king were mercenaries of the Mercenaries Guild.

“It’s going to turn into chaos.”

The mercenaries did not dare to imagine what the citizens would do after seeing their king being abducted in front of their eyes.

They heard Bakehe’s shout at that moment.

“Intruders! Hurry up and show yourselves! Don’t aim for our citizens, but come, I am waiting for you right here!”

People could feel his love for his subjects through that shout.

King Bakehe’s aura shot up from his sword inside the fog as well.

Paaaat!

The sky blue aura surrounding the sword was glowing even within the fog.

It was at that moment.

“Your majesty! Ugh!”

Bakehe heard the Knight Captain’s groan before it disappeared.

He could not even see his own hand in this thick fog.

Bakehe could tell that the Knight Captain had been ambushed by the enemies based on the groan.

‘…The fact that I don’t even hear him groaning anymore must mean……!’

He couldn’t even hear the faint groans of the Knight Captain who had been the closest to him.

‘…He must be dead.’

King Bakehe bit down on his lips, and his expression stiffened at the enemies’ ruthless ambush.

Unfortunately, there was something he did not know.

Shhhh. Shhhhh.

Ron, who had been disguised as an academy janitor, caressed Hong’s back once he jumped into Ron’s arms.

The Knight Captain, who was knocked out with sleeping poison, was on the ground in front of them.

The king did not know that the Knight Captain was only hit with a sleeping poison.

“Huff. Huff!”

As for the Royal Mage, he was shaking in fear while looking at an arrow that had stopped right in front of his face.

The pink arrow imbued with a significant amount of mana was aiming for the Royal Mage as if it would blow off his head if he made the slightest of movements.

Now that the strongest individuals aside from the king were unable to move…

Bakehe frowned.

‘…Fog?!’

Why was it fog of all things that was here right now?

He didn’t know who the intruders were, but he couldn’t help but think of the Fog Cat Tribe living in Mount Nex behind him.

‘No. There’s no way those bastards are coming after me. We are allied with them.’

Their alliance was based on things that forced them to be together.

It was an alliance that could not be broken because they each had the other’s weakness in their hands.

In that case, what was up with this fog?

He could not see the enemies.

It was just quiet.
