Dalia nodded her head.

Without a drop of tears, determinedly.

As it has been before, again, Cedric liked her very much this time.

"I'm Cedric. Can you sleep for a while? I'll get you out of here in a minute."

He decided to put her to sleep before she got caught up in anything more dangerous.

There was a sofa in the hallway. He magically pulled the sofa and flicked his hand lightly on her forehead. Dalia fell right on the sofa.

He turned his head with a smile.

"Now, it's just the two of us. Long time no see, Hikan."

"......."

"As always, you're really annoying."

Hikan looked at Cedric with a cold gaze.

"Your Highness the Second Prince, are you trying to take that child away from me too?"

He had a clear sword made up of mana in his hand.

'Aha, he uses a sword?'

Sadly, Cedric was vulnerable to close combat.

* * *

When Dalia closed the door and left, Hikan's inner voice began to explode.

Starting with the curse that asks him to go and kill her and say that she'll abandon him someday. But when nothing worked, they turned around.

《No one can take her out of here!》

《It's too dangerous out there! They're gonna kill her!》

That's right. That was the right word.

Dalia was the only thing in his life that was given to him. Everyone left him, but she didn't leave him.

But she wasn't a transcendent, she was a human being, and when she fell to the floor, her knees scraped.

He had to protect her.

'Then......what should I do?'

When he came to his senses, Dalia opened the door of the study and looked at him in surprise.

He wanted to say something. He wanted to say that it's okay. But at that moment, she fell on the sofa. Cedric, the Second Prince, appeared next to her.

《Look! He's trying to kill Dalia too! Do you know what you have to do?》

There was no time to think further. He rushed to Cedric with a mana sword.

* * *

Dozens of moves followed.

Hikan attacked Cedric with all his might. But Cedric couldn't even use half of his power.

He stepped back with a frown. Now something was approaching from the end of the second floor hallway.

In the first place, those who are willing to kill and those who don't, have a difference in the attack power itself.

'This is why I have to leave it to my superiors.'

Cedric sighed.

It occurred to him that maybe his life would be hanging on a thread. There is no such thing as die in vain while preventing the awakening transcendent. (*t/n: i tried my best ㅠㅠ)

But if he uses mana here indefinitely, his mind will be ruined first.

Cedric took after his father and knew how to tell when to use his strength or not. It was such a waste to use up all his mana for this kind of thing.
