“Yo.”
“…………………”

Lucio and Florencia, wounded from the harsh interrogation, were there.

“Now then… where should I start?”
“…I have nothing to say.”

So saying, Lucio turns his face away.
When I look at Florencia, she is biting her lip while looking down.

“I see… Ah, that’s right, the Sol and Alvarez families have been officially dissolved.”
“What!?”

Even though they are Sorcerers, the two are still nobles. They understand what it means for their families to be dissolved.
It means that their entire clan has lost its place in Istania.

However, the outcome was not as lenient as they might have imagined.

“M-My father and mother have nothing to do with this! It’s only our fault, so please don’t do that…”
“Don’t be ridiculous. If you’re a noble, it’s only natural that the entire clan atones for the mistakes of one of its members, right?”
“Ugh…”

This woman acted rashly out of a desire to help her childhood friend. Without deeply considering what kind of ending that would lead to.

“Listen. This time, the Third Prince, me, the First Princess of the Capetien Kingdom, Lize, and the Saint of the Barthian Holy Kingdom, Christia, were put in danger. If things had gone wrong, the country of Istania could have been destroyed.”
“…………………”
“That’s being resolved with the lives of the two families and you two, plus money. Be grateful.”

When I tell them that, Florencia, at least, widens her eyes greatly.

“U-Um, what about our lives…”
“…The Kingdom of Istania has declared that this incident was the sole doing of Lucio and Florencia, and their fate has been entrusted entirely to the three countries. In other words, whether you live or die is up to us.”
“Ah…”

Florencia collapses to her knees, stunned.
That’s right. This is the ending you chose.

“But I’m not a demon either.”

Ignoring Florencia, who is shedding tears, I turn my gaze to Lucio.

“That orb that summoned the Evil Dragon Azi Dahaka… how did you get it?”
“…………………”
“I see, you won’t answer. Guards, take Florencia away immediately and execute her.”
“Yes, sir!”
“W-Wait! Why is it coming to this!”
“It’s obvious, isn’t it? If you don’t tell me everything, the two of you have no value. So, we’ll just execute you quickly as an example.”

As I coldly declare that, the guards forcibly pull Florencia’s hair.

“It hurts! It hurts! Please stop!”
“Silence! You’re just a Dark Elf who tried to kill Prince Harold!”
“No… Noooo…!”

Florencia is dragged away, being taken to the execution ground.

Then.

“I… I understand. I’ll tell you everything. So please, just save Florencia…”
“Don’t just say whatever you want. In the first place, you came to this country to curse Florencia to death, didn’t you?”
“…………………”

When I say that with as much sarcasm as possible, Lucio glares at me in silence.
Ah, that’s right, Themis said that Lucio tried to curse Florencia to death because she was his first love’s precious childhood friend, and he was jealous more than anything.

Surely, Lucio was superior when they were children.
He should have been in a position to protect Florencia, but before he knew it, she had become a being above him, and he became miserable and couldn’t stand it.

He’s just saying convenient things, it makes me want to puke.

“Then tell me now. Everything you know.”

Lucio hesitated, but told me everything.
Including the existence of a man named “Mostro Monos” who provided the item to summon Azi Dahaka.

“So, who is this Mostro Monos guy?”
“I don’t know… I was skeptical at first, but I tried some of the tools that man gave me, and I found that at least the tools were genuine. However…”
“However?”
“That man said, ‘If you share the secret, ruin will come.'”
“Ruin, huh…”

In Yuri’s case, it was for the purpose of advancing “EnHaza” according to the Scenario, under Themis’s orders.
Then, what is the purpose of the man named Mostro Monos? Themis, the administrator, is in my hands, and I haven’t heard of another administrator.

Then, what on earth…?

“Ugh… Ugh…”
“Florencia!?”

Florencia, who is being restrained by the guards, groans and begins to scratch her throat.

“Lucio! What’s going on!”
“I-I don’t know! I didn’t do anything…!”

From his panicked appearance, it seems unlikely that Lucio is the culprit.

“Anyway, we can’t let Florencia die now!”

I don’t know the purpose of the person who did this, but in any case, I have to do something.
I give Monica a look and have her go to call the Royal Palace physician.

Damn it… If I had known this would happen, I would have had Christia accompany us.

And then.

“Ah… Red… Gasp…”

Florencia spits blood from her mouth and dies.

“We examined the body, but there were no poisons or anything like that.”
“It doesn’t seem like she was cursed either…”

After Florencia died, I had Christia come and examine her body with Monica.
Since their answers are the result, I’m at a loss.

“How is Lucio doing?”
“He’s lost Florencia, and he’s terrified that he might suffer the same fate, so he’s mentally unstable and still trembling in the Dungeon.”
“I see…”

From Lucio’s condition, there is only one possibility.
There is a possibility that a man named Mostro Monos did something.

After all, he warned Lucio, “If you share the secret, ruin will come.”

“Lord Hal, what will you do?”
“I don’t know. But for now, let’s try to be as cautious as possible.”
“That’s right… That’s all we can do.”

What is his purpose, how did he kill Florencia, there are many mysteries.

But.

“I’ll just protect.”

I have obtained the power to survive in this world of “Engage Hazard”… to protect my “Precious Thing.”
Then, I’ll even try to defend against the power that newly appeared in “Engage Hazard Second.”

For that purpose.

“Sandra, Monica, Caz, Christia-san… I want you to lend me your strength. To protect everyone precious to me.”
“Yes!”
“Leave it to us.”
“Yeah!”
“Of course.”

I am the “Incompetent Rascal Prince,” Harold Wel Dehauvalz.
No matter who the opponent is, I will protect everything.

Together with this “Precious Thing.”
