Two Heroines Came from Holy Kingdom

“It was about time…” (Harold)

Finally, the day had arrived for the Baltian Holy Kingdom’s delegation to come, and Wilfred, myself, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and others were lined up in front of the royal palace, waiting for their arrival. By the way, next to Wilfred was Cardis, and a step behind him was Marion, wearing a ceremonial knight’s uniform, waiting.

Maybe it was because of the match with Xandra, but as soon as I was guided by a civil servant to my current position, Marion looked awkward and lowered her head.

Not that I care though. By the way, regarding that matter, there has been no reaction from Wilfred. I know it is odd that he had sent a maid after me, but if he is involved, it would have been nothing but trouble, so maybe it is for the best.

While I was thinking of such trivial things…

“Wilfred. Do you understand the meaning of being appointed host by His Majesty the King?” (Cardis)

“Of course, Brother Cardis. I am no longer a ‘tainted prince’. I am Wilfred Weir Dehaubalz, the Fourth Prince of the Dehaubalz Kingdom.” (Wilfred)

“That is fine, then.” (Cardis)

Cardis nodded with satisfaction at Wilfred’s confident reply. As for me, standing next to him, all I could think was, “What? What was this farce?”

But at least, King Eibar and Cardis seem to be trying to improve Wilfred’s situation. Unlike in the story of ‘Enhaz’, it looked like they are paying special attention to him, which is great (sarcasm).

At that moment…

“Allow me to report. The delegation from the Baltian Holy Kingdom have safely entered the royal capital. They have passed through the central avenue and would soon arrive at the royal palace.” (??)

“I see.” (Wilfred)

Upon receiving the report, Wilfred nodded. He acted as if he was the only host this time. Because of that, the civil servant who reported looked troubled, so I gave him a wry smile and gestured for him to step back without worrying.

Then…

“Brother Harold, the delegation this time included His Grace the Pope, who is the second-in command in the Holy Kingdom. Let’s set aside factions and cooperate to ensure a successful outcome.” (Wilfred)

Wilfred extended his right hand and smiled. The protagonist’s smile made Marion, one of the main heroines, gaze at him in admiration.

Now then. Should I have taken his hand or not? If I want to avoid making waves, I should have taken his hand, but because of past things with Xandra, I personally really want to refuse.

As I hesitated, staring at Wilfred’s hand and mine…

“Hahaha… As brothers, let us have joined forces and supported Wilfred.” (Cardis)

Cardis, unable to watch any longer, grabbed my hand and forcibly made me shake hands with Wilfred. Though his expression was calm, his gray eyes weren’t smiling at all.

Seriously, Cardis. You just casually declared Wilfred as the top host side. Of course, since the civil servants are listening to this conversation, they would probably act accordingly from now on. It would help reduce my workload. Of course, that’s a relief.

And then…

“Oh!” (Harold)

Seeing the group approaching the royal palace’s main gate, I let out an ordinary exclamation of admiration. All the horses were white, and the holy knights clad in silver armor surrounded the large central carriage decorated in the Baltian Holy Kingdom’s symbolic colors of white and gold, as if protecting it.

“The Baltian Holy Kingdom’s delegations are entering!” (??)

As the fanfare sounded, the delegations slowly passed through the space between the kingdom’s knights, who were lined up on either side of the main gate, and entered through it.

“Your Grace the Pope, welcome to the Kingdom of Dehaubalz. I am Wilfred, the Fourth Prince, and I will be your host.” (Wilfred)

“Likewise, I am Harold, the Third Prince.” (Harold)

In front of the carriage door, Wilfred and I delivered our greetings and bowed respectfully.
Even though we were princes, the other side was the second-in-command, the Pope, so it was correct to be humble.

Wait, what? No one is getting off…

I raised my head slightly and timidly looked at the carriage.

Hmm?

“Hmph. To be greeted by a ‘tainted prince’ and an ‘incompetent brat prince,’ the Holy Kingdom is certainly being underestimated.” (??)

“!?” (Harold)

Aah… A holy knight who suddenly jumped in front of us said something rude. Since that person was wearing a full-face helmet, I couldn’t see the face. However, I definitely recognized that voice.

There is no doubt. This woman, with her arrogant attitude, is one of the main heroines of ‘Engage Hazard’.

—Holy Knight “Carla Delminio”.

“How rude!” (Wilfred)

The first to bark back at Carla’s words was Wilfred. He was practically baring his fangs and glaring as if he wanted to kill her.

Me?

I was just smiling and watching how things played out. After all, I knew this heroine, Carla’s personality very well.

Never underestimate a heavy user of ‘Enhaz’.

Her true nature was that of a proud and noble knight, someone who would never insult others.
If she spoke like this, there must have been a reason.  What was likely was that the Pope, who was leading this delegation, had deliberately instructed her to provoke us. However, that question was quickly answered.

“Oh dear… Carla, you mustn’t say such rude things. Hurry and apologize to His Highness Harold and His Highness Wilfred.” (??)

The carriage door opened, and a woman dressed in priestly robes with a veil appeared. She was the strongest light attribute and also the most ill-natured heroine in ‘Enhaz’.

—Holy Maiden “Christia Salerno”.
