ermore, when I investigated, I detected a strong trace of demonic pulse that should not exist in a normal human.
Its density alone is comparable with the demonic pulse of the demon race that was recorded in ancient legend.”

Count Greenwell stated, his tone clearly irritated.

 

“Magic tool that manipulates the human’s mind… magic tool that robbed one’s life force… Vanished Geyson and then my daughter’s actions.
With all these factors, as well as the report from the grand temple, His Majesty judged that the demon king’s resurrection is close by.
So, he sent a decree to continue our preparation in secret, appointed my daughter as the saint and judged Geyson as part of the demon race.”

 

The duke sighed as he continued, now lamenting, “I personally do not want to blindly believe that my daughter is a saint, but I have no way to refute the fact and what she showed me either.”

 

“According to the legend, the saint will receive her oracle when she grows into adulthood.
If, just an if, Miss Katrina is really the saint―― then we absolutely cannot let her show up with the Saint’s Ornaments, which has yet to regain its function.
Thus, His Majesty ordered us to research a way to revive the Saint’s Ornaments, yet… even after four years of research, we have yet to find the clue to revive it.”

 

Count Sphene heaved a sigh as he lamented about the grim result of their research.

 

“―― If what Miss Katrina said really comes true, there’s a high chance that Bates-dono will be the one who restores the Saint’s Ornaments to its prime state.
In that case, that’s even more reason for us to protect him.”

 

“Please wait a minute! I haven’t even had a vaguest idea how to do that yet.
Aniki and Count Greenwell are equally brilliant researchers as I am.
There’s a chance that it’s not just me who needs the protection.”

” ”

 

Indeed, it was just as Bates-dono had said, Count Greenwell and Count Sphene were also people we couldn’t afford to lose.
After all, together, the three of them were the three most prominent researchers Serendiaz Kingdom currently had.

Everyone had to be protected.

 

“Bates.
Our research institute is right inside the castle, as is the Saint’s Cane and Tiara, which is placed inside the treasure vault.
Your place, on the other hand, is loosely guarded.
Furthermore, though we did establish your store as an independent institution to bait the demon race that has never appeared on the surface until now, this kingdom also cannot afford to lose you.”

 

“In conclusion, we will have to prepare more powerful escorts for the three of you.
I’ll immediately propose this matter to General Crimson and His Majesty tomorrow.
I think you should have no problem with this, right, Bates-dono.”

 

In the end, everything was decided with a single sentence from the duke.
So, although Bates-dono was clearly dissatisfied with that, he couldn’t complain either since the other party was a duke and he… was not.

 

“―― Well then, let’s prepare a trap to protect our kingdom from the demon race.”

 

 

Kevin had already been waiting for me when I returned from the evening party.
It was time to hear his report about what Theodore did today in my office.

 

Although I could already guess the general situation from Bates-dono’s story, I had yet to know about the matter of him being conned by Luke-dono in an argument… It seemed that Theodore had finally snapped out from his relaxed state thanks to that event.

Still… Dear me, I wonder from whom did he inherit that easygoing and never get discouraged attitude from?

 

Well, then again, I was really glad that he finally realized the importance of his status and the duty that came with it.
Really, my son’s growth was something that couldn’t be underestimated.

And I hoped he could get along with the other children after this.

After all, the one who would carry the duty to protect Miss Katrina – the Saint – might be one of them, the child of the same age as her.
Though, naturally, if possible we – the adults – should prevent such a situation that will endanger our children’s life from happening.
