Marcus took a step back, allowing Reinhardt to take the center position in front of the stage. Stepping out of the queue, he was bathed in the sight of the audience, and faced the sages with an expression without a trace of pride.
"Knight Reinhardt, I would like to report to everyone present that the honorable sages, Reinhardt Van Astrea, who belongs to the Knights of the Guards, report that the mission has been completed."
Everyone present could more or less understand what kind of task Reinhardt was reporting on on such an occasion, so after hearing Reinhardt's words, everyone's expressions were more or less different.
There have been some changes.
"Well, then let everyone hear the results of your mission."
Following Mylotov's instructions, Reinhardt turned around and looked around at everyone in the hall.
"The Dragon Miko, the candidate for the throne, and the fifth person has been found."
The noise just spread among the knights side by side, and the expressions of the candidates also changed due to their respective strong emotions, which were fighting spirit, joy, boredom, and confusion. The stagnant king selection finally started to operate, Subaru Natsuki
She also knew that the new candidates were enemies to Emilia, but she was really curious about what kind of person would appear.
"Please bring it in."
Reinhard summoned briefly, received the message, and after the guards standing in front of the door saluted, the door slowly opened.
"yes."
A figure accompanied by a maid walked towards the throne room from behind the door.
"Hey hey..."
Seeing that figure, Natsuki Subaru couldn't help but open his mouth and lost his voice in shock.
The light yellow dress is swaying lightly, her feet in high heels are stepping on the carpet, her hair is neatly combed, shining with golden light, and her strong-willed red pupils indicate that the visitor is a girl with mischievous tiger-like features.
That figure made Natsuki Subaru suspect that he had seen it wrong, and could only be stunned.
"The person who asks to become the king on his own initiative is named Lord Felt."
Subaru Natsuki, who was frozen in shock, had her eardrums vibrated by the sound, which sounded like it was being repeated over and over again.
At this point, the battle to choose the king, which will determine the future of the Lugnica Kingdom, officially begins.
What finally started the battle for the king's election was the girl Subaru Natsuki met during his first few death rounds. She was wearing dirty clothes that looked like rags. The girl had dull blond hair and violent eyes.
The words "tenacious and clever" are more suitable for this stubborn girl who came from the slums. This is Natsuki Subaru's entire impression of the girl Felt.
"It's incredible..."
In Reinhard's announcement, Felt walked calmly into the throne room with her maid, walking on the red carpet. The hem of her dress swayed gently as she walked dignifiedly, just like a noble daughter.
【Maybe it will shine if you rub it.】
Subaru Natsuki had said this about her in the past, but after being polished by the power of Reinhardt's family, the rough stone named Felt not only glowed after being polished, but also bloomed with overwhelming light, enough to do so.
Commenting, at the end of Natsuki Subaru's shocked gaze, was Felt who slowly stood in front of Reinhardt. Her figure made Reinhardt smile and nod.
"Sir Felt, I would like to thank you for this trip."
Reinhard saluted respectfully, and Felt raised his eyes and called out.
"Reinhardt."
The girl gave a calm but somewhat wrong tone, and slowly said the name of the knight standing in front of her.
"yes."
Reinhardt responded cheerfully to the call of the girl in front of her. The knight and the rich lady stared at each other, and then...
"You bastard, you brought me here without any explanation. What do you plan to do!?"
The girl named Felt picked up the hem of her skirt, drew an arc with her slender legs, and kicked her straight towards Reinhardt's chin, but before she could hit him, she was caught by the knight's raised hand.
"This really scares me. What are you doing?"
After receiving Felt's attack very easily, the girl knight tilted her head and asked Felt.
"Don't catch it so easily and say such sarcastic words! Here, the clothes, these guys, and you! What it all adds up to, I've reached the limit of my tolerance!"
Using one foot to regain her balance, Felute slapped the dress roughly to show her anger. The high-priced dress specially prepared for her was treated so roughly. The maid who was accompanying her was dizzy and weak at the sight.
"Don't you like this dress? It suits you very well."
Putting Felt's legs down without a care, Reinhardt changed the topic to the dress that Felt was patting.
"Who is telling you about clothes? Aren't you embarrassed? I'm saying I hate this! It's not just about clothes, it's also about you! Don't you feel embarrassed even if the knight kidnaps and imprisons you?"
Felt was not misled by Reinhardt's changing topic, but continued to ask Reinhardt in his own way.
"This is for the prosperity of the kingdom."
Reinhardt concluded without hesitation that Felt seemed to have a headache and held his forehead with his hand.
"I thought my whole person had changed, but luckily it was just the appearance. That's great. It turns out that human beings' inner character never changes. I'm not the only one like this!"
Natsuki Subaru had originally planned to tell Mr. Rom that it would be a cruel report if there were too many people. It was a relief to confirm that Felt was safe and sound in an unexpected place, but another
On the other hand, the chance of Felt being promoted as a candidate for the king makes people feel the fate. After all, Felt originally met Reinhardt after he stole Emilia's badge.
"That girl... was from that time...!? That's why Reinhardt took her away..."
Emilia, who discovered that it was Felt, seemed to have reached the same conclusion as Natsuki Subaru. The relationship evolved from the fight for the badge to the fight for the throne. Led by other candidates, the knights and nobles attending the meeting also
They all showed surprised reactions, but none of them had a good impression of Felt's rude behavior. Feeling the stern gaze directed at them, Felt smacked his lips in a bad manner for everyone to see, even though the interaction was short.
, but she is not a girl who is so eccentric. You can vaguely realize that she must have encountered many things this month. Although Natsuki Subaru is not inferior to her in terms of content density, a wanderer becomes a candidate for the king.
The Cinderella story is also quite incredible.
"Oh! Why are you in a place like this, Miss!"
Felt glanced back and forth as if he were in the evaluation hall. When he noticed Subaru standing in the front row of the knights, his expression brightened. She pushed Reinhardt away and walked over on high heels that weighed a thousand pounds.
"Hey! Long time no see. You must be having a good time recently!"
Where did the rich lady's behavior go? Natsuki Subaru raised her hand suspiciously to greet her who was very happy to see an acquaintance. However, the moment Natsuki Subaru said a hearty greeting, a forward kick hit her abdomen, making her whole body Kneel down.
"Woo..."
The sudden violence made Subaru groan, and Felt, who was raising one foot, crossed his arms and nodded.
"Judging from the feeling of the kick, the abdominal injury seems to be fine. It looks like you've been doing well lately, right?"
Felt confirmed Subaru Natsuki's question with the kick just now, and then looked at Subaru Natsuki who was holding her stomach and laughed heartily.
"Since you're worried, you should be considerate of me, you guy... Why did you give me a full blow instead of saying hello? What if I'm about to recover and I'm kicked to pieces by you... In fact, I've just been recovering recently."
It has been patched up nicely at the moment, but there is a clear white scar on Subaru Natsuki's belly. The injury she suffered due to Kazami Yumu's bad taste has not yet completely healed. This is probably why Emilia will let her That’s probably why Subaru Natsuki came to the capital with him.
"Sir Felt, it's nice to rekindle friendships with old friends, but please come here."
Perhaps because he felt that the atmosphere had relaxed, Marcus calmly promoted the proceedings and indicated his position on the stage with his hand. His serious expression made Felt frown, but he still reluctantly returned to the front.
"What do you want me to do?"
Felt walked up to Marcos casually, which made the knights even more unhappy.
"I'd love to say it's ladylike behavior, but please hold this first."
Felt showed a disgusted expression at Reinhardt's joke. She watched Reinhardt take out the Dragon Emblem from her arms and put it on her palm. The jade in her palm immediately glowed white. This is Proof that Felt is qualified to be the King's Chosen One.
