The King's Guard

Ward suddenly hugged his own hand, and Serafina widened her eyes. Her body stiffened. She pushed Ward away in one breath.

What is this! Zachary, the jazz...!

Sorry, I overestimated myself. But I think you need it.

zachary Jazz...! 

Just treat me like a blanket and cry.

In the past, I used to call myself a sword, but now I'm just a blanket. Even though I'm a moonlight clan, when will you ever consider yourself a human being?

His embrace was not too ambiguous, it could even be described as unfamiliar. He just put his arm around my back and patted me. Serafina tried to blame him for being rude. I was just thinking, "Are you crazy? Hugging a woman who was almost raped by a man like this."

However, she can't push it. You know too. What Serafina needs now is stability.

In all your years of existence, has anyone ever comforted you like this?

Tears streamed down Serafina's face. The knight was ignored by the princess he was supposed to serve, and he didn't know why. He comforted her, saying that the insult didn't matter.

It's okay, there's nothing wrong.

Ward clumsily comforted the princess in his arms, as if trying to soothe a trembling kitten. This was exactly what Serafina needed most - the broad embrace gave her a sense of security. Finally, she was able to release the emotions she had been struggling to suppress.

The emotions that couldn't be expressed because of ugliness always reveal themselves.

I'm so scared, I'm scared...

...

Why does it happen to me? I no longer have a mother, no younger brother, but I have this stigma... I haven't done anything wrong...

...

I swear I will die. Why, why...

Serafina's tears moistened Ward's shoulders. It's unclear how Ward saw it, but she ultimately succumbed to the hand extended by the weakest hour.

I'll be by your side.

...

I will protect you.

Although it was foolish talk, Serafina still didn't believe it. Nevertheless, I am grateful for this comfort. Unconsciously, the trembling of my body stopped. Serafina immediately got off from Ward. I have completely calmed down.

Thank you, Sir Ward.

Serafina clicked on his name, expressing the utmost gratitude.

Don't you want to keep a secret? We must keep it confidential!

Secret? What secret are you talking about? This is serious. Someone wants to harm the princess during the night!

Zachary, let's take a big step as a gentleman. The leader of the White Knight, Sam, turned pale.

This is not a good thing for you. The reputation of the princess...

So, should the White Knights now push the blame for neglecting the protection of the princess onto someone else?

Zachary, sir! Don't you want to part ways with the White Knights?

I'm saying what I should say, are you trying to change the subject?

ward Looking at the leader of the White Knights, he made the same threat. The White Knights are known to be very politically sensitive, as they are centered around the nobility, but recently their negligence has been excessive. They are almost no different from Melansa's private soldiers, acting only for her and the king. As a result, isn't this kind of thing happening?

zachary, sir! Please listen to the princess. Then I'll...

I want to tell Your Majesty.

ward · zachary's opinion has not changed. He can't forget serafina who is crying. Then, vilian came out. He is giving instructions for work.

Zachary Sir, Sam Sir. What are you doing here?

Vilian's face looks even paler today.

I have something to request from Your Majesty.

Tell me.

Zachary Jazz!

Vilian frowned slightly at this call. Unlike the anxious Count Sam, Ward remained calm.

He cast a calm gaze towards the princess's older brother.

In the future, please let our knights take care of the princess's security.

... ... What?

You don't have to let all the knights guard. It's better to appoint me as the exclusive guardian envoy of the princess, just like when you originally assigned me.

Suddenly, what does that mean?

Faced with the perplexed expression of the villain, Ward wonders what to do.

Beal invited me to collaborate as the team leader.

Vilian glanced at him, and Sam the Earl quickly lowered his head.

Yes, yes. Yes. Always want to devote myself more thoroughly to serving His Majesty and Her Majesty the Queen Mother...

Vilian stared at the two of them blankly. Captain Beal looked gratefully at Ward. Vilian thought for a long time.

Zachary, Sir.

Yesterday, the intruder of the princess's palace was caught by the Black Knight.

Ward flinched. Has this matter been exposed? Villain walked over with big steps and lifted Ward's head.

It is secretly guarded by my Black Knights, and it's not that I'm not worried about my sister's safety.
