The Remnant Knights

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Only a few people were able to witness the fantastical sight of a wave of darkness swallowing everyone in the banquet hall of the Blue Lotus Palace before they seemingly blinked out of existence. But instead of being awed, they only felt sorrow.

After all, they would no longer be in the same world as their princess, and there was nothing they could do about it.

For those who had been allowed to enter the hall to watch Emilia leave, it went without saying that both Crystal and Emilia were absolutely certain of their loyalty. Most of these people couldn't follow her to the unknown only because of their other responsibilities.

Maybe if the prime minister of Phoenix had decided to show up, she would also have been included in this privileged crowd.

Regardless, being allowed to watch Emilia and the others leave was their unique privilege over all the other knights, it was impossible to deny that a part of them was incredibly honored.
