It didn’t take long for everyone to notice that Sid Blitze, knight from the legendary era and Alvin’s first knight, had disappeared from the capital.

Chapter 3: Fighting the Decisive Battle on His Own

“Sir Sid disappeared?!”

Shock spread through the temporary royal palace while it was preparing to attack the northern demon kingdom.

“Why?! What’s happened, Isabella?!” Alvin yelled, making the vassals and knights stare at her uneasily.

“I don’t know... I truly don’t know...” Isabella answered, shaking her head feebly. “Sir Sid called me to the temple, and then he aimed the crest on the back of his right hand toward me and muttered something. The next instant, the crest glowed, and light poured on me. Then... After that, I lost consciousness.”

“T-The crest glowed...?”

The crest was the proof of the contract between Alvin and Sid. It was an ancient secret technique given to the Holy King’s descendants. Thanks to it, Sid, who wasn’t a person from this era, could manifest and stay in this world. It was proof of the bond between them. As such, Alvin had the same crest on the back of her right hand.

She glanced at her hand and...

“...Huh?” Alvin shivered.

The crest was losing its color. It was vanishing.

Sir Sid... Please, answer me! Alvin tried to summon him like she once did before, but it didn’t work. The crest had lost its power. Wh-Why...? What’s happened...? She felt a chill run down her spine coupled with a horrible presentiment. Something irreversible was going to happen.

As Alvin was looking at her crest, dumbfounded...

“Just where did Sir Sid go?!”

“If he isn’t here, we can’t win against the demon kingdom!”

“Don’t tell me... He became scared and ran away?!”

“How can you say that?! There’s no way master would flee in such a situation!”

“Yeah! I’m sure there’s a reason he had to go!”

The cabinet ministers and the students of Blitze class quarreled.

It was natural that such mayhem would happen. Sid Blitze was the knight famed to be the strongest in the legendary era. Disappearing before their battle against the demon kingdom was a hard blow. To say nothing of strategists, even children could understand that the reason many people decided to fight against the immense demon army and didn’t lose hope was thanks to Sid, the strongest knight, being on their side. He wasn’t only supporting them militarily but also mentally. He had become an indispensable existence to the Kingdom of Calvania.

However...

“Silence,” Alvin ordered in a firm and solemn tone. She did her best to suppress her doubts and act as a king should. It was effective, and the majesty in her voice made everyone quiet. “Everyone, let’s continue the war council.”

“B-But, Prince! Sir Sid is...!”

“If Sir Sid isn’t here, we...!”

“Whether Sir Sid is here or not, what we must do hasn’t changed,” Alvin answered her flustered vassals solemnly. “Also, you are misunderstanding something.”

“We are...misunderstanding?”

“Indeed. Sir Sid is someone from the legendary era. By some miracle, he was summoned to our era, and, by chance, he served this country until now. However, the current invasion is something happening in our era, so we’re the ones who should fight.
