" "Y-You're THE THE BLACK REAPER OF THE BATTLEFEILD!"

'Right. That was his nickname. Black reaper! OF the battlefield! Ugh. My goodness! How cringy! I forgot about Kenneth's cheesy nickname. No wonder the princess was so calm without even batting an eye. SO this was the mission he was talking about. ' "

"SEE! That nickname is so cringy!"

Arwin spoke in new found determination.

"But no one ever told me that it was..."

Kenneth said saddened by this new found knowledge. 'People thought his nickname was cringy...? Why did no one ever tell me...?'

" "OH NO!"

"WHAT... SHOULD WE DO?"

'Haha! The assassins' are scared! You should be since he's the love interest.'

"Duke Kenneth was supposed to be joining the Northern expedition..."

"That's a lie that we spread on purpose."

"NO WAY!"

Options appear on the screen reading:

1. Die.

2. Be murdered.

3. Fall over.

4. Stop breathing.

'What choice does he have now?'

She goes and finds a new option...

5. Be tortured and then have ones life ended.

The main assassin is stuck thinking 'What should I do..?'

'Oh, I know! This is going to turn into a hostage situation! According to my years of reading romance fantasy novels, they're definitely going to fins a hostage. Every romance fantasy novel has a hostage once in its story! As expected, they're going to aim for the princess and..'

"TH-THROW DOWN YOUR WEAPON! OR THIS WOMAN DIES!"

They hold a knife up to Latte. 'Why me?! This idiot chose the most worthless hostage out of this whole room!!' Latte is shown smiling at the assassin. 'You masked idiot! If you've got a death wish, do it alone!'

Kenneth is shown looking at her seemingly questioning if he should save her or not. 'Wait... Now that I think about it, I'm wearing a wig and a mask. I suppose I don't need to "work" for a hostage play like this.'

"GAH!"

Kenneth is shown effortlessly saving her. "

"That was so cool!!!!"

Rosaline said in an impressed at the scene again!

"RIGHT!!!!"

Cano spoke in shock. Kenneth was not fond of this personally, but was too tired of people hating on him and just wanted to relax in the peace, without any snarky comments.

" 'Wow! He got him so fast! Looks like he hit the wrist with the handle of his sword. And the knife that threatened me is on the ground! I should stomp on it at least.' She is shown stomping on the knife as the assassins' got beat up. The assassins' are shown walking away in pain 'No, no way! Duke Kenneth is way too strong! This is my last hope..' Now they switched back to Latte's point of view. 'I'm familiar with that pose. I look like that when I'm running away from a mess.'

"Today..."

'Oh mister! You shouldn't say that!'

"I MAY BE REATREATING BUT NEXT TIME I'LL... KYAH!!"

'He won't wait for you... The only one who can use that skill is Ibelin not you not even I'm allowed. Now that I look at them again, they're a mess without their leader.. tsk..' "

Ibelin just decided to blush at the statements of Kenneth liking her.

" And so peace returned with Kenneth's arrival. Kenneth stood there amongst the silence without a change in his expression. A light breeze fluttered around and his silky hair. 'Wow.. As expected frim the love interest #2.. Did he buy that breeze effect, I wonder...' Kenneth is shown standing sassily with wind hitting him somehow in a house. 'Wow.. How lucky he's cool no matter what he does... It stopped.' The girls have love in their eyes looking at Kenneth and his beauty. 'YEs they're already in love, haha, love is in the air~' The princess walks up to Kenneth.

"Thank you for listening to my request, duke Kenneth."

"Don't mention it."

'Huh? Now that I look, there's no blood they must've all fainted.'

"They'll wake up after a very long time."

Rosaline is shown taking off her mask. "

"Rose, love you but, no, don't do it.. don't do it. You will embarrass yourself and our household name."

Rondemio says with pain.

"..Sorry...."

"You didn't."

"I did though."

Rosaline said with a smug smile.

"Well what is there reaction."

Rondemio says staring back at the screen.

" "Lady Rose. Are you alright? You must've been startled.. I'm sorry for getting you involved in something like this."

Rosaline is shown beaming with her beauty. 'She's so close!!!!!'

"I'm fine! It was... Over in a second really. "

"Those assassins are from an anti-imperial group. I held a meeting out in the countryside in order to lure them in. I'm sorry about that. But I meant when I said that I wanted to meet you, no matter what it took."

Rosaline is shown looking out guiltily.

"P-PRINCESS!"

"ROSE!"

'Is... She giving me the green light??!' Hearts appear on the screen.

"The honor is all mine."

'Looks like the prince will be even more insignificant now! Oh should I be taking this off too?' "

"Short answer no."

Arwin says unimpressed with Esula saying the same thing disappointed.

" 'He's still here. I should keep this on. And I didn't thank him yet!'

"Thank you for saving me."

"It was nothing."

'It really did look like it was nothing to him. As expected from the notorious black reaper! If he was just as easy to tease as the prince. I would tease him about his nickname and say "I'm soo touched, yellow reaper of Bimor."' The assassins defeated by Kenneth were rounded up and everything was a wrapped up quickly. I'll have to admit Kenneth was really cool this time!

"To be continued..."

"Yellow... reaper.. of Bimor...???"

Kenneth spoke in pain again. Not knowing if he can survive this entire show.
