Chapter 5 - The West and East Castle Walls
When I went after the girl, I was getting closer to the west side of the castle wall, where the monster appeared.
(I'm scared... But, I need to hurry and find that girl.)
The atmosphere felt heavy with all the armed soldiers around in the area.
Soldier 1: Princess MC...!?
When one of the soldiers noticed me, he became surprised and ran over to me.
Soldier 1: This place is dangerous. Please hurry and find shelter.
MC: I'm sorry. It's just that...
I told him about the girl...
...
Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the castle wall on the east side...
Prytwen: Once we've gathered all the soldiers, we'll have the front lines and the back lines split up to corner the monster.
Soldier 2: Yes, sir!
Prytwen: She must be worried... I need to hurry and return to her.
Soldier 2: Prytwen-sama? What was that...?
Prytwen: ! I-It's nothing. Don't neglect on preparations!
At that moment, a panicked soldier ran up to Prytwen.
Soldier 3: Prytwen-sama, big trouble...! It seems like the Traumerei Princess was in the west side of the castle wall...
Prytwen: Wha...!
Prytwen stiffened up as he instantly turned pale.
Soldier 3: Your Highness...!
Prytwen: ...Sorry, I'll leave this area to you guys...!!
As soon as he said that, Prytwen fiercely ran over to where MC was...
Last Chapter - A Shieldlike Reassurance
As the monster's roar and tremors were getting louder...
Soldier: Princess MC...!? This place is dangerous. Please hurry and find shelter.
MC: I'm sorry. It's just that...
I explained to him that a girl was running towards the castle wall.
Soldier 1: Understood. I'll look around here. You should hurry and leave this place immediately.
When the soldier left after saying that, a noticeably fierce sound along with a cloud of dust rose... Breaking through the castle wall, a colossal monster stood in front of me.
MC: ...!
(So big...!)
The colossal monster that was breathing roughly was like a bloodthirsty dinosaur. I stepped back in fear, but the pupils in the monster's wide eyes were completely focused on me.
(I need to escape... But, my body is trembling and I can't move...)
Monster: ROAARRR...!
MC: ...!!
The moment I closed my eyes tight from that ground crawling roar... The monster's roar bounced back as it echoed deeply.
(Eh...?)
When I nervously opened my eyes, I said his name shakily.
MC: Prytwen-san...
Closing in on the monster that bent down, Prytwen-san detained the enemy's movements with a single shield.
Prytwen: I won't let you lay a single scratch on MC...!
With the use of the large shield, Prytwen-san drove the monster towards the outside of the castle wall.
Prytwen: Just hurry and get out of here...! Haa...!!
When Prytwen-san used his shield to knock the monster down, it was unable to withstand it and got blown away. As the monster's roar diminished, it fell with no sign of getting up.
Prytwen: S-Sorry...!
Just as he quickly lets go of me, his gaze wandered around in a panic.
Prytwen: Just now, um! I just got caught up in the moment...! Ah, but even though I said all that so naturally, those were my true feelings...!
As he messily grabbed his hair, he sighed deeply.
Prytwen: Ah, geez... What am I saying... I'm really sorry... You must be troubled from me saying something like that so suddenly...
When his words quickly became soft, the last thing he said almost dwindled away.
(My heart is beating fast and I'm feeling a little troubled, but... But...)
MC: ...I'm happy.
Prytwen: Eh?? ...Eh!?
With an unbelievable expression, Prytwen-san widened his eyes.
Prytwen: R-Really...?
MC: Yes...
When I nodded bashfully, there was a broad smile on his surprised face...
Prytwen: ...ALRIGHT!!
Just as he shouted that happily, Prytwen-san hugged me again.
(Such a dignified, strong... and honest person.)
As I was being held in Prytwen-san's arms, the unbelievable fear that I felt earlier disappeared. This comforting warmth felt like the large shield that protected me...
