148 080. Aslan's saviour -1 Part Two

“Uwaaaahk! D-do you have any idea who I am?! I’m Ruppel Olfolse! I’m the Third Imperial Prince of the Theocratic Empire!”

Ruppel loudly cried out. Even in the middle of crying out in fear, he somehow managed to swing a sword around indiscriminately.

Even a third-rate mercenary would tut at that unsightly spectacle. However, the amount of divinity gushing out of him was still more than enough to be described as shocking.

As a matter of fact, the divinity flooding out from his sword was what had managed to stop the advances of the hashashins up until now.

Hans’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets at that sight. “But I heard that the Third Imperial Prince was an incompetent mama’s boy?”

He had heard about some information regarding the Imperial Family, so this scene came across as rather surprising to him.

But then again, Ruppel did achieve successive victories as a slave gladiator, didn’t he? And even if the rumours said he was incompetent, one shouldn’t forget that he was the Holy Emperor’s grandson.

“Tina, stop resisting and surrender.”

“Stop disappointing our father.”

“Hand over the Imperial Prince. Our father may acknowledge your contribution and allow you to join our ranks.”

“We do not wish to fight against you.”

Hashashins continued addressing Tina. Their tone of voice was monotonous, but a slight hint of sorrow could still be sensed from the way they spoke.

These assassins were, once upon a time, her brothers and sisters who underwent life-or-death training together with her, while Damon oversaw their growth as their training instructor.

They couldn’t let Tina leave from this place since their father had ordered them. However, the story might change if she apprehended the Imperial Prince herself and handed him over.

Tina shook her head. “I can’t do that.”

“Tina, we’re saying this out of our concern for you. If our father captures you, then…”

For the encore, Hans chucked smoke bombs on the ground next. The smoke spread quickly and blocked the view.

Hans stammered, “Th-this is enough, isn’t it? Let’s hurry and escape from here.”

But Tina shook her head. “We can’t leave behind Lord Angel.”

“Wha? The likes of us won’t be any help to him right now, you know?! No, we’ll just get in his way!”

“…”

She bit down on her lower lip.

Getting in his way, was it? She couldn’t allow that.

Didn’t she clearly state it earlier? That she’d not become a hindrance to Lord Angel?
