The blindingly bright light that had covered the surroundings quickly condensed into a spherical shape.

The people inside the carriage heard the warning and opened the door. Unfortunately, however, they faced the monster directly because of that.

“Argh!”

An imperial doctor who stepped out first screamed loudly. Then, Siervian saw the pale-faced Jane.

‘I have to protect her!’

Right now, the cariby rushed at a person nearby with its huge teeth.

Siervian believed in Sir Roid beside her and quickly used a magic spell. She meant to distract its attention and turn it away.

“Urgg…!”

The cariby was hit on the side of its head after running for a long time and laid down on the ground.

Since Siervian couldn’t use magic that well yet, her attack equaled only one punch.

“Cough.”

But that was enough for now. The cariby shook its head a few times and got up.

It was for a short while, but Siervian saw that the monster kept rushing only forward. So it was correct to expect that her provocation would lead to a vicious run toward her this time.

After a few spins, the cariby opened its mouth and rushed at Siervian.

“Your Highness!”

Sir Roid responded quickly and drew out his sword.

Siervian believed in his skills, but she had lured that monster on purpose, so she felt bad.

“Sir Roid, I’ll help you!”

“That’s all right, Your Highness.”

She had cried out resolutely, but Sir Roid merely responded leisurely.

“Ohh…!”

Sir Roid gave his sword a light swing.

In a blink of an eye, the dangerous situation was easily subdued.

Blood splattered into the sky as Siervian saw a light a little different from her previous magic flash.

The cariby’s huge body, which was rushing this way again, slowly collapsed to the ground.

“Siervy!”

Then, the crown prince, who had been scouting to make sure there were no other group of monsters around, ran toward her in surprise.

He became even more panicked when he saw Sir Roid moving, when he was supposed to be standing still next to the princess. Hearing Damian’s call, Siervian looked out of the carriage.

Sir Roid returned to her side again, and the other knights rushed at the corpse of the cariby in unison.

“Brother! Jane!”

Siervian left the carriage and quickly ran to confirm their safety.

However, she had overlooked one thing. If she went that way, she would see the monster’s body.

‘Yuck.’

The knights diligently moved the body. It was to confirm their killing and to loot the body.

“Cover the body now! Siervy, are you all right?”

Damian came toward her, shouting in an angry voice as Siervian stopped running. The crown prince’s anger instantly subdued his surroundings. They could only hear the cold wind swaying around the snowy mountain.

[Damian Elverdotte]

Mood: Furious

Thoughts: How dare a monster go near Siervian. I won’t let all the knights go!

Her brother’s status window was very similar to the cruel thoughts her father sometimes had.

That was why Siervian exclaimed reflexively, “I’m all right, Brother!”

Damian had a scary look on his face without realizing it, and when he saw Siervian, he wiped the look away.

Siervian had said she was okay, but she certainly looked scared, so he got angry again.

“But there was a cariby charging at you…!”

“Brother, I lured the monster because it tried to hit Jane’s carriage.”

“You lured it…?”

“Yes. I used a spell because I trusted Sir Roid.”

In fact, Siervian was scared and shaking in fear.

Monsters and blood. These were things she never experienced before. Those kinds of cruel scenes that she had never seen before had unfolded in front of her.

But, Siervian clearly understood the situation now.

In this circumstance, it would certainly not be good to blame the knights.

Hence, she deliberately grabbed her brother’s sleeve and whispered in his ear.

“Siervy is fine. Don’t blame the knights okay?”

“Ugh.”

As Siervian spoke, Damian’s face quickly became troubled. She was in trouble because her nice brother tried to be considerate of her.

[Damian Elverdotte]

Thoughts: Siervy is cute, but discipline is still needed.

“Huh?”

She didn’t even consider it an issue requiring discipline though. Didn’t the knights work hard in the first place to kill the monster before it reached Jane’s carriage?

He’s a genius so he forgot that most people could not kill monsters so quickly.

>b>[Damian Elverdotte]

Thoughts: But the discipline of the knights…!

“If you do it, Siervy will be upset.”

Finally, Siervian, who had read Damian’s status window, put her hands on her waist.

“Okay, I won’t.”

[Damian Elverdotte]

Thoughts: Ugh, it’s a big deal if Siervy gets angry.

In the end, Damian capitulated and nodded urgently to soothe his sister.

Siervian had been angry at him once before. Back then, Damian and Karmen had a war of nerves in front of her.

He tried to win the squabbling with magic. At that time, Siervian warned them not to play dangerously.

“If you keep fighting like that, I’m not going to see your faces for a week!”

After that, Siervian declared that she was angry, and the situation wasn’t resolved.

“Princess!”

Jane had been about to faint in the carriage and ran toward her.

She ran past the monster. She gave the monster’s body a few frightened glances as she tried to ignore it firmly. Jane knelt before Siervian, half-crying.

“Never again, never do that again!”

[Jane Millas]

Thoughts: Because of me…! My princess!

Jane had seen clearly the moment the monster’s teeth rushed toward her.

However, the princess lured the monster away to save her. For a moment, the monster turned away, and she felt instinctively relieved, but her heart sank when those vicious teeth headed toward the princess.

“You mustn’t do that. Please promise me, princess.”

She knew that the princess’ magic skills were excellent, but this should not be allowed.

Even if Jane had to become a shield in an emergency, she would do it. But the princess betrayed her expectations.

“Stop that, Jane,” Damian said with a firm face, as he grasped what the maid was saying.

“The princess…!”

“Siervy…!”

Siervian was embarrassed by the concerned attention. But she once again cast her eyes at the body of the cariby and opened her mouth with a firm attitude.

“Siervy is a mage and part of the royal family.”

“Yes, so…”

“That doesn’t mean that Siervy should be protected from behind all the time. Father said so.”

When she mentioned the emperor, all the protesting mouths closed. Siervian had deliberately brought up her father, so she smiled.

“Of course, Siervy won’t do anything dangerous either. I just did it because I could. Sir Roid is a great knight. I was sure he would protect me.”

“I’m sorry, Your Highness.”

Sir Roid replied in a slightly thrilled voice to hear that she had believed in him so much.

Siervian looked back at him slightly and opened her mouth again.

In order to relieve the now tense atmosphere and not to repeat the same thing again on future trips, she had to share her thoughts.

“Siervy hates an incompetent princess who only knows how to be protected. I want to be a princess who knows how to actively protect people.”

Siervian didn’t mean to say it so seriously, but she spoke with sincerity without realizing it.

Then, she purposely looked at the monster’s corpse to calm her trembling heart.

‘It’s scary, as expected!’

Despite that, she wanted to overcome her fear.

Siervian in her previous life had hoped she could do something like defeating monsters in the North as well.

If only she could use magic and be loved by her family, maybe she could achieve it.

And it was in this life that she achieved both of those desires.

She wanted to be a stronger person for her precious people. She didn’t want to be afraid of anything.

“…You’re not gonna do anything dangerous, are you?” It was not long before Damian asked.

Siervian nodded and replied loudly to her brother’s suspicion.

“Yes!”

At that moment, the status windows of the knights were seen nearby.

[Favorability: +20] [Favorability: +15] [Favorability: +20] [Favorability: +10] [Favorability: +20] [Favorability: +20] [Favorability: +20] [Favorability: +25] [Favorability: +25]

She quickly looked around in confusion, but it wasn’t a bad response.

Just now, she realized that she had been speaking as if she was giving a speech.

She carefully grabbed Jane’s skirt. In response to that, Jane, who was wearing a thick winter coat just like her, picked up Siervian in her arms.

“Thank you, Princess.”

Jane’s voice still trembled, and she hugged her with a heavy heart. She was so grateful to the princess who still took a risk for her when she was at a loss.

Then, her brother came into her line of sight wearing a childlike expression.

[Damian Elverdotte]

Mood: Bitter

Thoughts: When did my sister grow up so much…

‘Brother, you’re also still eleven years old…!’

Siervian thought he was like an adult even though he was young. But she still couldn’t believe that her brother would also think like that!

In a strange mood, Siervian scrunched her face. In fact, while learning magic, her small body often felt tired.

‘I can’t believe I’m still eight years old!’

Then one of the knights, who had been watching from behind, approached her and knelt on one knee. He politely offered what he had in his hand.

“I would like to give my honor to the princess.”

Siervian had inadvertently seen what was in the knight’s hand and opened her eyes wide.

“What’s this?”
