“What’s going on?” Ein asked.

“Allow me to explain,” Lloyd answered. “However, I will warn you that the situation may require you to return to the royal capital. If it comes to that, I pray for your understanding.”

“Well, that all depends on what I hear. But before that, explain yourself.”

“Yes, Your Highness. Per the count’s earlier words, this matter is in regards to that beast from the founding era. If such a monster were to actually make an appearance, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it wields power rivaling that of a Sea Dragon.”

“What do you mean?”

“Do you remember the story I told you yesterday? The one about the Ogre?”

Ein nodded.

“And how the legends mentioned that the Ogre fled the mountains to avoid another monster?” Lloyd went on.

“You mean...” Ein said.

“Precisely. There’s a good chance that very beast has finally shown itself.”

A monster that could spook even an Ogre? Within the blink of an eye, the expression on Ein’s face had morphed into one of shock.

“The creature is known as Upaskamuy,” Lloyd said. “Unfortunately, we know little about the beast aside from its hulking physique and the chilly aura it emanates. The legends suggest that it may be a kind of Dragon.”

“So we have no idea how powerful it is?” Ein asked.

“Precise measurements? No. However, we do know that it survived an encounter with the first king.”

Ein narrowed his eyes upon learning that the monster had clung to life despite a tussle with the Demon Lord’s slayer.

“At the end of their battle, the grievously wounded Upaskamuy used everything it had left to escape the first king,” Lloyd said. “The first king was said to have chased after it, but the monster had seemingly melted away into the roaring tundra. To get to the point, this monster presents a threat that would generally require your immediate departure, Sir Ein.”

“Are you saying that I should put a swift halt to my duties and the survey?”

“Correct, Your Highness. There’s no doubt in my mind that this would be the best course of action. I strongly believe this to be the same mysterious presence that we’ve previously encountered.”

Lloyd’s words were correct. Ein crossed his arms and closed his eyes.

“Is there truly nothing we can do?” he wondered.

Krone’s warm, gentle touch led the prince to strongly consider sitting this one out. However, how could a widely heralded hero flee from such a dangerous situation?

“Sir Ein, I implore you to not overthink this,” Lloyd said. “Remember, you are the crown prince with a position to keep in mind.”

“I know...”

As the future successor to the throne, Ein wasn’t allowed to throw himself into the middle of such a dangerous situation. Should anything happen to him, it wouldn’t be out of the question for Lloyd’s head to be on the line. Regardless, Ein felt himself saddled with a heavy heart. Leaving Barth would give off the appearance that he was feeling with his tail between his legs. Unable to put the right words to his feelings, the prince remained silent until he finally chose to open his mouth.
