I Became the Fiancé of a Crazy Heroine - Chapter 27-1

This was an unexpected result and also an unexpected stroke of luck.

If they had known how to ambush him and Hanette, they would have found a way to prevent them from going on the journey.

But the information he knew hadn’t yet started, and he had not even expected Robbins to encourage the trip.

‘I can’t move in the capital.’

They were expanding their influence throughout the Alain Kingdom while waiting for the right time.

Of course, depending on the situation, they might reveal themselves, but they acted as discreetly as possible in the capital.

Security in the capital was superior to any other region, and the palace and many noble families were present.

If they were caught up in a frenzy and made a mistake, they could lose all the power they had built up in an instant.

‘…Still, it seems too fast. Is it really right to ambush us just because we left the capital?’

Kelidos was a city that belonged to a region quite close to the capital.

It could take at least a day, and as little as half a day to travel between them.

Above all, since the capital was nearby, they would have to take many risks if they wanted to act directly

‘Maybe if it was Hanette’s brother, but targeting Hanette doesn’t make sense.’

They had designated the current king, the direct royal family, Duke Adelaira, and Duke Tyrone as assassination targets.

However, they were currently focusing on increasing their forces, and they wouldn’t engage in large-scale activities until later in the middle of the operation.

Therefore, there was no reason to kill Hanette if they considered timing and conditions.

As the so-called “Crazy Young Lady” Hanette was the least valuable noble in Duke Adelaira family.

‘It was a bit dangerous.’

Although I gained something from this incident, I didn’t feel particularly good about it.

Not only Hanette, but also their hired help and even their escort knights were nearly killed.

If it weren’t for Exceed Rain, they wouldn’t have been able to get through that situation easily.

‘Hanette could have… been hurt.’

Hanette had learned magic, so she could have been helpful in battles.

Her talent in magic was excellent, so she could produce appropriate power and speed in real combat.

However, because of that, Hanette would reveal that she had learned magic, and due to her lack of combat experience, she could have been injured by a momentary mistake.

‘Should I keep an eye on her a little longer?’

There was still time before the protagonist arrived.

In the meantime, there has never been a description of direct royal or aristocratic children getting hurt or killed so far.

Of course, it might not have been intentionally described, so caution was needed.

‘It’s not good to only focus on the protagonist.’

Other novels are similar, but they usually revolve around the protagonist.

The protagonist is swept away by various accidents, meeting various characters, which speeds up their growth rate and information acquisition.

However, this resulted in the exclusion of unnoticed characters and information, and as a result, unintentional constraints arose when trying to grasp the overall situation.

‘This is the limit of being an extra.’

Because he was an extra, he couldn’t stand out and could never get close to the protagonist.

Furthermore, in some ways, it was miserable to see the fiancée going over to the protagonist.

‘… what am I going to do now?’

Sion got up from bed.

Although there was a lack of information, he could easily deal with it now.

Because he had Exceed Rain in his hands.

‘I need to engrave the magic.’

He couldn’t always stick to Hanette.

There would be times when Hanette wanted to be alone, and she had things to do by herself.

Again, they could come by surprise, so it was necessary to be prepared.

‘They won’t try to fight me.’

Just the fact that he used swordsmanship was enough to make him intimidating.

Furthermore, since he could neutralize magic, he gave off the impression of using special sword techniques.

In other words, he had left the impression of being a strong person, so he couldn’t be provoked easily.

‘However, I may end up fighting them, so I need to become stronger.’

Sion had already roughly planned out how to handle Exceed Rain.

He would increase his mana as much as possible and learn sword techniques to improve his understanding of close combat and swordplay.

Although it would cost a lot of money to speed up the process, most of the expenses would be covered by the Robbins.

‘I can learn swordsmanship from Barchen.’

Barchen Laird was a young knight and promising swordsman from a Marquis family.

Since he was the legitimate son of the Marquis Laird, there was no problem in terms of bloodlines.

In addition, rumors were circulating that he was going to join the Royal Knights, so many nobles showed interest and tried to arrange strategic marriages.

Although Barchen Laird was busy, he would never turn away his younger brother if he asked for instruction.

‘Spending all the money on magic instead of swordsmanship would be more effective.’

In fact, it was more of an issue of efficiency than cost.

To maximize the unique abilities of Exceed Rain, it was necessary to make proper use of magic.

Learning swordsmanship was necessary, especially since he used a magic sword, but without the prerequisite of magic, even that would be meaningless.

‘I should have some talent too…’
