My name is Brunhild, the Head of the Queen’s Royal Guards.At this moment, we are on our way back to the capital, home, in a horse-drawn carriage.Of course, my duty is to ensure Her Majesty the Queen’s safety.And as for the other knights?They are riding outside. They can’t withstand the cold that is unintentionally released by Her Majesty’s divine skill. Because…Brunhild turned, looking at Valessia.The Queen still looked sullen, muttering in annoyance, “How dare he…” while tightly gripping her ice staff.With a long sigh, Brunhild murmured tiredly,“Your Majesty… please, let it go. That happened a year ago.”She raised her hand to rub her temple, trying to suppress the growing headache.Valessia pouted, and without warning, immediately hugged Brunhild’s arm like a sulking child.“Brunhild, you’ve been so cold to me lately… I miss the little Brunhild from before…”she murmured cutely, rubbing her head against Brunhild’s upper arm like a spoiled cat.Brunhild could only sigh deeply

Brunhild POV: Northern Front War (Goblin)When in the office, I was going through a pile of routine reports when my eyes caught something odd — a document titled “Goblin Nest Extermination.”The extermination was handled by the Adventurer Guild, so I didn’t look too deeply into it.However, one sentence made me stop:“Extermination successful. Three male adventurers found—only bones remained. Two female adventurers not found; only their identification cards were recovered.”Calmly, I set the document aside, marked it for further review, then continued reading the other reports.— Three weeks passed.A new report arrived:“Merchants saw a group of goblins carrying adventurer weapons along the same trade route.”Worried, I handed the letter to my aide.“Bring this to the Adventurer Guild. Submit a mission request for extermination.”As my aide turned to leave, I added,“Also, archive the previous goblin report.”Five months passed.Repeated sightings triggered several extermination oper

My name is Lyanna, one of the best archers in the Royal Guard. Or at least, that’s what they say. Right now, I’m standing in the city guards’ training yard, bow in hand, facing a row of straw dummies set up as if this were some kind of festival game.I draw my bow. And with a quick motion of my hand,Twip. Twip. Twip. Twip.—Whoosh!Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. Each arrow hits the target right in the center. Perfect shots. One after another.Then the sound of applause echoes from the candidates behind me.Clap. Clap. Clap. Clap. I turn and throw them a smile. “That’s how it’s done! Got it?” “Yes!!” they answer in unison.But their tone sounds more like “is that even possible?” or “I’m not sure,” rather than “definitely!” Their faces can’t hide their doubt.I narrow my eyes at them, ‘Yeah… they probably don’t really get it yet. But whatever,’ I think. I nod proudly like an instructor and say, “Okay! The test begins now!!” while raising one hand high with my wide gri

After sitting at the bench and table provided, and as the Prince unfolded the map he had drawn, he said that there were about 500 tents visible among the many trees.Hearing that, my face immediately turned pale, while I thought about how many arrows would be needed to wipe out all the goblins.While listening to Rhoderic’s explanation that we would form (and had even already formed and were on the way) an army of more than 1,800 people to destroy the goblin settlement, my brain went completely blank for a moment.And after regaining focus, I said in my heart, “Damn… so Rhoderic knew from the start,” while letting out a sigh of relief.After hearing Rhoderic explain that they had been instructed to form small teams along the journey through the forest,I just realized something and muttered,“No wonder there were always letters left at every resting post. I thought it was just to track the Prince’s whereabouts,” I said with an intrigued tone.Then, when Rhoderic explained that the mai

From his high position, through the magic drone connection [Share Vision] and [Sharp Vision], Victor observed the battlefield below.Each group of four soldiers had positioned themselves with precise coordination, a clearly organized assault.He saw several goblins start to panic and flee back toward their settlement.Chaos enveloped the area: the harsh screams of goblins mixed with the sharp clanging of weapons.Victor smirked faintly.“Oh… there’s prey for me,” he muttered, raising his rifle and beginning to aim at goblins that looked different from the others.Twip. Twip. Twip.Shot after shot was fired with precision, each one hitting its target.As he shifted the drone view north and east, Victor saw more goblins panicking and retreating.However, from his position southwest of the settlement, his line of fire began to be blocked; the goblins were starting to approach the wall.“Hmm… guess I’ll just use that method,” he whispered while adjusting the rifle’s angle.He began calcul
