"A letter to the lady? From the master's side?"

"I understand, it's hard work, please rest well."
After softly reassuring her shortness of breath and successfully sending the news from the front line to the messenger of the castle, Grace turned around and walked out of the corridor under the scorching gazes of many soldiers.
Turning her back to the soldiers who were going to rest under the arrangement of the guards, the black-haired maid sighed silently, feeling a headache from what happened in the past six months.
Since the aliens changed their tactics half a year ago and caused the pressure on the human defense line to increase greatly, the coalition army has begun its first large increase in troops, and Rose, as one of the few major human powers, naturally began to respond.
It was at that time that Bruce, the patriarch of the Sorophia family, made an astonishing decision, that is, to transfer Charlotte, who was handling domestic affairs in the rear, to the front line and directly participate in the battle as a general of the Union Army, and this can also be done. Saying is the beginning of it all.
The participation of Charlotte Sorophia, whose famous name spread all over the continent, played a very good leading role in the war. Under such an example, there were countless people who actively joined the army for a while, and the students of the country of scholars also responded in groups. The conscription plan was completed more than expected, but in fact, everything is not as simple as it seems.
Bruce forced Charlotte to join the army, which seemed to be to take the lead, but in fact had to do so for other reasons, which Grace, who worked with Charlotte every day, knew all too well.
Walking through the long corridor and entering the interior of the castle, the guards in front of the gate bowed their heads convincingly when they saw Grace, but when the maid wanted to enter the inner city, the general guarding the gate said nothing. Order directly in advance.
"It's Miss Grace, open the city gate!"
m. bjkj66. Novel reading
"Thank you, Captain Todd."
"No, no, no, last time I was on the battlefield, thanks to the general, you stopped me, otherwise Miss..."
"You don't need to be a general. Call me by my name outside the battlefield. Besides, it was just an accident for the eldest lady."
"Yes, I made a blunder, please don't mind."
Looking at the man in heavy armor and bowing his head to apologize, the unhappy expression on Grace's face subsided slightly, and she turned her head and entered the inner city under the military salute of everyone.
The black-haired maid and the eldest Miss Sorophia they serve are the two commanders of Fort Richard, and the two masters of the source level 2 who were officially awarded the title of general by the coalition army. However, they had to It is said that the two feel completely different to everyone.
Although Grace has a cold attitude, she is supported by everyone in the castle. As for the other supreme commander, she is more respected by the soldiers than by the soldiers. This can be said to be the same as when everyone joined the army. Imagine completely different.
"At this time, the lady should wake up..."
Looking at the near-noon sky outside the window, the black-haired maid was a little unconfident to herself. She quickly walked up the stairs in the castle, looked at the door of the command room in the upper part of the building, and gestured to the two guards at the door, However, the answer was negative.
"Lord Grace, Miss Charlotte is not here."
"...Well, I see."
After nodding a little frustratedly, the maid turned her head and continued walking into the castle.
At noon, she still did not go to the headquarters. With this, Grace had already roughly guessed the situation of her young lady, and as a result, there was a lot of haze on the maid's face. She sighed, and she actually missed the girl from the past.
She walked quickly to Charlotte's room and waved to the maid at the door to leave. Grace stretched out her hand and gently pushed the door open. However, just after opening a gap, the strong smell of alcohol rushed out of the house, and above the ground, Several bottles of different colors fell randomly on the carpet, and the lids were not even tightened.
"..."
Looking at the famous wine thrown on the ground, the black-haired maid had a melancholy look on her face, but after struggling for a while, she closed the door again, standing at the door and sighing silently.
In one year, everything has changed so much that Grace in the past never dreamed that her favorite young lady would become like this one day.
Love destroys, as many poets in ancient times once said, and for the current Charlotte Sorophia, this sentence could not be more appropriate.
The attack on Akart a year ago can be said to be a turning point in Charlotte's life. The girl before that was almost synonymous with perfection, noble and dignified, gentle and kind, and the beauty of love made her bloom at the best age. The dazzling brilliance, even the princess in the storybook can't match.
However, no one could have imagined that a girl who grew up because of love would eventually collapse because of love.
Charlotte was unable to arrive in time for the attack on Akart that led to Roja's disappearance a year ago. Although it was later proved that this had little impact on the final result, the brown-red-haired girl could not forgive herself. .
As a fiancée, she didn't help her lover. The fact that Charlotte was very self-blame, but it was just such a girl who was able to hold back her worries and wait for Roja's return, but with the passage of time and the news from the kingdom of knights, the girl situation began to change.
At first it was a nightmare, then anxiety, nervousness, and inability to eat. Until half a year later, Roja was declared to have very little hope of survival. After the official search was stopped, Charlotte's situation began to deteriorate sharply, and there was a suicide. tendency.
After discovering this, Bruce immediately ordered Charlotte to receive treatment. However, the girl was very affectionate, and any psychological counseling was ineffective. Even Master Andrew could not eliminate the grief in the girl's heart.
In order to prevent the girl from committing suicide, the Soofia family had to put Charlotte under house arrest, but this was not a long-term solution. Finally, after discussions, Bruce decided to transfer the girl to the front line and reactivate her with another negative factor. A stagnant heart.
That is hatred.
Roja's death not only made Charlotte heartbroken, but also inevitably left a seed of hatred in her heart, which was hatred for the savior believers who attacked Akate, and also for Yi [hidden]. The hatred of the [Six Calamities] represented by the Mist, and the aliens obviously belong to the former.
Using hatred as a fire might re-light Charlotte's heart. On the other hand, killing can indeed play a role in venting, and it might be helpful for psychological problems. Such considerations made Bruce make this. A gamble-like decision, and as it turns out, he made the right choice.
After coming to the front line, Charlotte's symptoms were greatly relieved. The girl who had lost her lover hated the creatures of the savior camp like aliens. Revenge became the pillar of the girl, and in the constant battle, Charlotte Te's own fighting ability finally broke out in full force. In just one year, he has reached the source level 2, becoming one of the new stars of mankind on the battlefield.
But such hatred also caused some problems. For example, Charlotte was often very aggressive on the battlefield, which caused the soldiers to fail to keep up with the rhythm. At this time, only Grace could persuade her, so the soldiers in the castle Great respect for Grace, and another, more serious problem, alcoholism.
After coming to the front line, Charlotte did not have any thoughts of committing suicide for a while, but to avenge the person she loves is actually an act of strengthening her past feelings to some extent. In fact, in her spare time, grid Lace often sees Charlotte looking at the ring in her hand with pain on her face.
In order to suppress the grief in her heart, the girl chose to use alcohol to numb herself. Grace objected to this, but she knew that there was no other way, because for Charlotte, from the moment Roja left , I am afraid that this world is already a life-or-death for her.
Grace, who was thinking like this, stood quietly outside the door. Soon after, there was a slight noise in the room. Seeing this, the maid knocked on the door lightly, and entered the room with Charlotte's answer.
"Good morning, Miss."
"......Um."
After saying hello softly, the maid who entered the room opened the heavy curtains, the sun shone into the room, the opened window allowed the indoor air to circulate, and the odor of alcohol in the room dissipated slightly.
Half a bottle of famous wine spilled on the ground shone with water in the sun, and the girl who sat up on the bed was silent. Compared with a year ago, Charlotte's face was pale and her body was much thinner. Different from healthy, noble and elegant, the girl at this time has a morbid beauty.
Just like the weak princess in the story, or the noble daughter who has experienced catastrophe, Charlotte at this time is full of a pity that makes people want to protect her temperament. Compared to which one is better, it is difficult to decide, but the emerald-colored pupils are very different from before.
Cold, indifferent, sparkling with reason, but without the slightest expectation and enthusiasm, this is Charlotte's current pupils, and every time she sees it, it makes Grace's heart aches.
"Miss, breakfast..."
"No appetite, sorry."
"..."
Hearing Charlotte's soft reply, Grace couldn't help but her expression darkened. In recent months, Charlotte could hardly eat anything except the wine that numbs her. The girl was probably already dead.
Grace's task as a maid is to take care of Charlotte's daily life. However, since her love left, the girl has no life, and the rest is only pain and revenge.
"Grace, there was some noise this morning, what's the matter?"
"Ah, yes, miss, this is an urgent letter from the master, saying that it must be opened by you..."
"Open it and read it to me."
"......I understand."
Hearing Charlotte's request, Grace hesitated for a moment and then took Charlotte's lacquer ring. After unlocking the spell, she followed the order and opened the envelope, and a short letter appeared in front of her.
"To Charlotte, an emergency contact was sent from the Holy See today. It is a handwritten letter from the Holy See John. According to him, he has received the latest news from Roja Arkat, and it is judged that he is in the southeast of the Tucker Plain. Deep down, the Holy See is ready to organize a rescue... Big, Miss!?"
"Snapped!"
Halfway through reading the letter, Grace couldn't help raising her head excitedly, and in front of her, the brown-red-haired girl froze in place, the glass full of water in her hand fell to the ground and shattered.
"You, what did you say?"
"Miss! Lord Roja is still alive!"
"!"
Hearing the exclamation of Grace's confirmation, Charlotte, who was pale, stumbled towards her. She ignored the broken glass on the ground and rushed straight to the maid.
Grabbing the letter, he glanced at it, and after a while, his body began to tremble violently.
"...It's him, it's definitely him! Only he can activate this skill, and he's really alive... woo!"
"Miss!"
Looking at the brown-haired girl who was slumped and sobbing, her body softened after saying this, Grace was overwhelmed with emotion for a while, she pulled up the chair and hugged Charlotte on top, and then helped to wipe it off while comforting. tears.
"It's great, Miss, it's great, Lord Roja is still alive, so that everything can be restarted..."
Recalling Charlotte's pain in the past year, the black-haired maid couldn't help but choked up, until after a long time, the brown-red-haired girl wiped away her tears, forced herself to calm down, and read the letter in her hand again. , and his face gradually became serious.
"Wait, the letter says that he is deep in the Tucker Plain and needs to be rescued..."
"...There is the base of aliens, why did Lord Roja suddenly appear there? But this time it's troublesome, our troops were severely damaged in the previous battle."
Recalling the contents of the letter, the black-haired maid's face showed concern. If you want to rescue Roja, high-end combat power is naturally necessary, but it is also necessary to hold back the aliens' troops, but this is today. Rose is the most lacking.
In the previous battles, Rose's army was severely attritioned, and now it can only defend. Once attacked, it must be understaffed.
"Miss, what should we do?"
After estimating the number of troops needed, the black-haired maid looked worried, but the brown-red-haired girl was very calm. She put away the letter, raised her head and said lightly:
"What to do? It's very simple... Send someone back to the country immediately and contact the kings of the southern countries."
"Southern countries? You mean..."
"...Buy all the troops of the country in the east of the south of Rose for me!"
-------------------------------------------------- -------------
On the front line of the Eastern Front, the brown-red-haired girl cried with joy at the news of the boy, while in the depths of the Tucker Plain, Roja looked at Her Royal Highness, the princess whose spell was erupting in the sky, silently.
At this time, on the plain in front of Roja, a 100-strong xenogeneic reconnaissance team was riding their horses to flee into the distance, and behind them, there was the Shinigami who spread the wings of light and harvested life.
Not long ago, Roja and Noelle were found by the monsters in the sky. This can be said to be an accident, but after realizing this, Miss Angel immediately launched an attack and wiped out all the monsters with one blow. .
The monster died, but after some consideration, Noelle did not take Roja to transfer immediately, but turned to leave, chasing after the masters of these monsters.
Although because of the long distance, this group of aliens did not find Roja and others, and did not even know the fact that the detective monster was dead, but the death of the monster will eventually leave a flaw and cause suspicion. In order to buy more time for the teenager, The blond angel decided not to stay any longer, erasing everyone's existence.
After more than ten minutes of searching, Noelle found the reconnaissance troop. The enemy clearly felt Noelle's strength and immediately began to flee in the direction of the main force. Unfortunately, the speed was far lower than Miss Angel's flight.
The galloping golden rays of light went into the distance, and they successfully stopped the enemy soon after. In order to suppress the reaction of the magic power and avoid being perceived by the nearby powerhouses, Noelle did not choose a powerful attack, but landed on the ground and ended up in person. In hand-to-hand combat, the monsters in the sword, light, sword and shadow fell to the ground and died, and the desperate roar continued.
Although for the girl who has reached the source level 2, these enemies are as powerless as children, but it took nearly half an hour to solve all of them. When Noelle returned to the xenogeneic outpost where Roja was located, the time had already passed. It's sunset time.
After dark, due to the relationship between Noelle's light wings, the two of them were very easy to be found flying in the sky, so they could no longer move quickly. As for traveling overnight, considering Roja's body, this kind of sleepless night and day is unrealistic.
In desperation, the two could only rest at night, and the outpost of the aliens became the best choice on this vast plain.
"Welcome back, are you done?"
"Well, it's all solved. With the ability of the [Angel King], their bodies have almost disintegrated."
"So that's the case, has your bloodline ability been able to achieve this level?"
"Well, over the past year, I've improved a lot, maybe I'm better than you now?"
"Hahaha."
It's really possible.
Looking at Noelle who said so, the black-haired boy smiled with a guilty conscience. Although the power of the king-selection family is almost unmatched at the same level, the Son of Destiny like Noelle is an exception. Everyone was in a duel at the source level 3, and Roja tried his best to wake her up.
"Anyway, hard work, thanks to you, otherwise our position will be completely exposed."
"It's not hard work, after all, this is to protect myself.
"Indeed, although it is a projection, the damage will be returned to the main body."
"Well, and besides that... it's just to be undisturbed for a while."
"Hey?"
Hearing Noelle's words, he was about to return.
Roja, who went to see the food cooked in the house, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He turned his head and found that Miss Angel had squinted his eyes at some point, and a familiar happy smile appeared on his face.
Um? and many more! This expression...
Fighting wits and courage for many years, Roja, who has reached the level of conditioned reflex, subconsciously retreats after seeing Noelle's smile, but he was blocked just after the start.
"Where are you going?"
The blond girl said so, and suddenly stimulated her own magic power, and suddenly pulled the chain that appeared in the air. Roja, who was unsuspecting, was dragged down in one breath under this surprise, and then fell into Noelle. in the arms.
"In the face of the lord who has returned from victory, you actually want to escape. Is this the way of your monarch and minister? Roja is acting as a marquis?"
Looking at the black-haired boy whose cheeks were twitching, Her Royal Highness pulled the golden chain in his hand and raised the corner of his mouth so mockingly, but seeing Noelle like this, Roja was helpless, and after thinking for a while, he forced a smile and said:
"His Royal Highness, this is a misunderstanding. I just want to see the pot in the house. After all, it is a rare supply. I think preparing food is the best reward I can do now."
"Food? So...that's really good."
Hearing Roja's defense, the blond girl couldn't help but smile, she looked at the black-haired boy and nodded meaningfully, then narrowed her eyes and said softly:
"I'll accept your kindness and eat everything."
