I was Sold at the Lowest Price in My Class, However My Personal Parameter is the Most Powerful - C514
Chapter 514: Trust / Ranelle
As advised by King Emou, I should rely on the Iron Knights here. I tried to contact them immediately, but an unexpected person prevented me from doing so.
“What are you doing?”
The word box for long-distance communication was destroyed by one of the guards. Unable to comprehend what had happened, I could only scream angrily.
“Madam President, I am sorry to inform you that your dream story has come to an end here.”
I had no idea that an assassin was mixed up with the presidential guard…….
The assassin approached me with a gnarled sword in his hand so I looked around for help from the other guards, but for some reason I didn’t see any of them.
I ran and ran out of the communications room because I thought that the assassin would soon come after me, but for some reason there was no sign of him.
However, I soon found out why. When I left the communication room, I found guards waiting for me with swords at the ready. Apparently, the assassin was not alone.
Just as I was about to give up……I heard a voice calling me.
“President, you are safe!”
About ten soldiers broke into the room shouting and moved into position to protect me and confronted the assassins.
“Who are you people?”
“We are former members of the Emou Kingdom’s Kingsguard, and we have come here with urgent orders from King Emou!”
It seems that King Emou had been working on my behalf. I was thrilled that he had prioritized my safety over his own.
Soon the assassins and the Emou soldiers are engaged in battle. Meanwhile, I left the scene, protected by a few soldiers.
“We are gathering the old Emou army’s magicrafts unit at the west gate. Let’s hurry there.”
First of all, it would be important to ensure my personal safety. After that, I will contact people I can trust, regain my position and work to get this mess under control.
The presidential office was in a bigger mess than I had imagined.
I don’t know who is my enemy and who is my friend, and those who were my allies not long ago are fighting each other.
The captain of the former Emou guards explains to me that things like what is happening here are happening all over the Federation.
I wonder if the Kingdom of Amuria is safe, if my father, Yukiha, and Himari are……safe, and I am suddenly worried.
There was about one battalion of troops waiting for me in front of the big gate in the west.
The magicraft unit rushed to the scene as soon as they spotted me and the old Emou soldiers fleeing and seeing this, our pursuers fled, as they realized that they could not win.
When I met up with the unit, I was immediately ushered into a large ride carrier. This ship looked familiar. I was sure it was a ship named Echigo, owned by the Emou royal family.
“From now on, by order of King Emou, the Emou Royal Army will act directly under the command of Her Excellency President Ranelle. Please give us your orders.”
The captain of the Echigo bowed deeply as he made this declaration.
“Thank you. Then, I would like to contact the Kingdom of Amuria and the Iron Knights as soon as possible.
Ha! I will make arrangements immediately. However, we have received information that the military forces of the coup d’etat are approaching us so I would like to leave this place as soon as possible.”
“I understand. Then please leave for the Kingdom of Amuria immediately.”
In a situation where I don’t know who is my friend and who is my enemy, my family is definitely the one I can count on.
