The Strongest Dull Prince’s Secret Battle for the Throne

Chapter 369: The Bear, Didn’t Turn Back

Chapter 369: The Bear, Didn’t Turn Back

Alright then.

Kid! Hey Kid!!

When I was about to head out to command the battle, I was approached by Sieg from behind.

When I turned around, Sieg was standing there with his eyes closed.

You just used the rumored treasure of the Imperial Family that can erase all kinds of magic right? Am I back to being human yet!?

Why dont you open your eyes and see for yourself?

No, no! Just answer me alright!?

You can put your hope up you know.

Really!? So I finally changed b-NO!

I bitterly smiled at Sieg who collapsed to the ground in his bear body.

So he did get his hope up a bit huh.

Good for you right. You can still be popular with children after all.

I want to be popular with hot women!

Give up. The Imperial Flags ability to negate magic is guaranteed. Thats why if you still havent changed back, it means that the cause is something else.

Come on, seriously.

Sieg looked even sulkier as he collapsed on the ground.

.

It was something that I already expected. If Ancient magic can only change someones appearance temporarily, no magic can turn someone into an entirely different being for such a long period of time.

As long as it is not magic, it can not be canceled by the Imperial Flag.

The same with illnesses.

How are you feeling? Char.

Normal. Im not expecting to be cured or anything so Im fine.

I see

Chars illness is the same as my mothers.

It will stick with you no matter what. If the Imperial Flag can erase my mothers illness away then I wouldnt be so troubled in the first place.

Char wasnt shocked at it either. It seems that she is more relieved that the children were saved.

However, when Char tried to take care of the children, I stopped her.

If you can still move then you should go.

Eh..?

This is the final battle of the Thunder God of Lowenstein. If you dont go and see it for yourself then you will regret it for your life you know?

But..the children.

Sieg is here. He came here because he decided to guard the children after all.

Dont just decide that on your own. That being said, if its a request from a beauty then I dont mind doing it though.

Because he couldnt return to being a human, Siegs tension was strangely high.

Hes in a slightly bad mood but it seems that he accepted the job.

This guy is somewhat kind to children after all.

UnOk. Thank you.

With that said, Char stood up and started running.

We are launching attacks on the mountain. Cavalry charge would be difficult so it is better to go on foot.

Can you take care of Char for me? Lynfia.

Yes, please leave her to me.

After saying so, Lynfia bowed and tried to follow Char.

Before she left I called out to her with a grin.

By the way, Al-sama huh?

Th, That isI already called Your Highness like that once so it would be strange to not use it now.Everyone is calling Your Highness that way as well. If Your Highness does not like that then I will change back.

Its alright. It felt better that way and kinda cozier too. How about you start calling Leo by his nickname too?

That is a little..

You can do it for Nii-san but you cant do it for me?

U, UhhhI will think about it!

With that said, Lynfia went after Char as if she was trying to escape.

Seeing her like that, Leo and I smile.

However, the battle is not over yet.

We cant keep smiling here forever.

Then Im heading out too.

To settle it huh?

Un, if we dont defeat the enemy commander let alone the rebellion, this battle wont end. We have to remove their leader.

I see.

He has no compassion left for Gordon now.

What worries me is whether Leo can really lay his hand on his own brother.

It was different in Zandra-aneues case.

He has to do it with his own hands.

Seeing me having such a worry, Leo smiles at me.

Its okay. I am not weak-minded after all.

Is that so?

I tell you, its okay. If its so painful that I cant bear it then I will go cry to Leticia.

.Hey, Sieg. this guy, while I was away did he turn into a no-good man?

Right!? I thought so too! He acted like he is different from everyone else now! Just because you got together with the Saint, you think you are hot stuff now!? This punk sure is enviable!!

It seems that his true thought came out in the second half. It looked like he wanted me to say more too.

Well, since he is able to rely on others now, I guess this is progress huh.

It is still troublesome that his partner is Saint Leticia though.

I didnt mean to brag though.

I cant say that I like this side of yours though.

Thats right! Thats right!

Leo smiled seeing us like that.

He then called Noir.

Well, lets talk more about it after the war is over.

Right. Right now the war is more important.

This is way more important than the war right!? A guy who is fortunate enough to randomly met a beautiful girl in the north like you really is unreliable! I was trapped in the castle the whole time you know!?

Sieg continued to complain but we ignored him.

If we kept him company then we wont be able to move forward after all.

Adlers true meaning is [Conquering through Admiration and Devotion] huh. I think that is correct.

You think so too?

Yeah. But there are some people that we cant reason with and some that will never bend their beliefs. In times like those, we have to wield our strength. After all, something cant be protected by just covering them with our wings. So I am going. My sword exists for that purpose after all.

Saying so, Leo straddled on Noir.

There is a big contradiction between wielding your sword and protecting someone.

After all, you would be hurting others in order to protect yourself and the people that you want to protect.

Human beings have that kind of limit but nothing can be achieved by thinking about it alone.

The Adler clan decided to act.

However, Leo seems to have found the answer in his own way.

We are putting an end to this battle! Those who are in the sky! Follow this Leonard Lakes Adler! We are taking Gordons head!!

Saying so, Leo led an air force and launched an assault on the mountain.

Sky and ground.

Mt. Haina is being attacked from above and below.

Just by looking at the mountain, I can see many enemy soldiers descending the mountain. They probably are deserters.

Gordon already lost control of his army.

The number advantage has reversed. They can no longer stop our morale.

Its just a matter of time now huh.

Dont you have to go yourself?

My role is to be here. Ive already finished what I have to do after all.

Is that right. Then I guess I will take care of these children huh.

Saying so, Sieg approaches the collapsed children and breaks their restraints.

Then, he rushed around the enemy headquarters to find some clothes and cover the children with them. These children are wearing literal rags after all.

He then called out to the nearby soldiers to take the children to another tent.

After they were carried away, Sieg brandished his spear and destroyed the tent where the children were held with a single blow.

Now its all good!

Does that has any meaning?

You dont want them to recall the bad memory right? Children should be free. I dont want them to be trapped by their memories.

With that said, Sieg breathed out after a job well done and went to the tent where the children were carried to.

The children who woke up would be surprised.

They would be greeted by a bear cub after ll.

Well, its better than having them see the soldiers.

I leave them to you, Sieg.

OH! If anyone tries to take these children then I will beat them all up! But will you be fine by yourself?

Its okay. I have my own escort.

Am I late perhaps, sir?

Sebas soundlessly appeared.

Seeing him, Sieg was convinced of my safety and went inside the tent.

With this lineup, we are set.

The rest depends on the people on the frontline.

It would be great if they can end this soon..
