I Became the Fiancé of a Crazy Heroine - Chapter 28-2

The palace, the royal office building.

A woman with black hair absentmindedly flipped through some documents.

She needed to distinguish which ones required the king’s seal and which ones didn’t.

Of course, she could just tear up any document that was stamped incorrectly, but it would be harder to fix the problem once it had progressed.

That’s why it was better to check everything carefully now and concentrate on her work to avoid making any mistakes.

‘I thought finally becoming the king would make me feel like I’ve accomplished something…’

Brandis Setve Endroden, the 17th king of the Alain Kingdom, sighed and looked away.

She always felt this way, that administrative work didn’t suit her personality.

She would be satisfied just killing monsters with her sword, but she had never been on the battlefield since becoming king.

She only felt resentment towards her past self who had wanted to become a king.

‘It’s boring… My body is restless…’

Brandis put down the documents and leaned her neck against the back of the chair.

If she could hear some interesting rumors or stories, she might be able to enjoy herself a little more.

Lately, her monotonous routine had made her even more obsessed with seeking something different.

‘If only someone brought me some interesting news…’

Just then, she heard a knock on the door from outside.

The woman who always escorted her entered the royal office building.

“Your Majesty the King, I would like to report.”

Gronne Eilike, the Commander of the Royal Knights, bowed respectfully and slowly began to speak.

She was not only the commander of the Royal Knights, but also a close guard of the king.

Known as the strongest knight in the Royal Knights, she was said to be second only to the commander of the Capital Defense Force.

With two knights guarding the palace and the capital, no one dared to attempt a rebellion.

“Who is the informant and where did the report come from?”

“It’s a report from the Capital Defense Force. Do you remember the group of bandits that appeared near the capital?”

“I couldn’t forget. Is there another incident?”

Brandis frowned with an annoyed expression.

Duke Adelaira alone was a headache, but even the Marquis Laird was involved in that incident.

If any additional problems arose, both families were willing to unleash their soldiers to kill the bandits.

“No. The Capital Guard has investigated the site of the incident and is currently tracking down the culprits. I would like to inform you about the battle that took place during that time.”

“I heard that the knights of Adelaira defeated the bandits.”

“It wasn’t the knights, but rather the youngest son of Marquis Laird who single-handedly defeated the bandits.”

“…?”

Brandis couldn’t understand the revised report.

The fact that it was written that he did it alone meant that the knights didn’t participate in the battle. Did he fight the bandits alone?

“If It’s Marquis Laird, the eldest son’s swordsmanship skills are amazing… And isn’t his younger brother working as a palace administrator?”

“… It seems like the youngest son has also reached a high level.”

“If the commander of the Royal Knights says so, there must be a reason, right?”

Brandis showed interest with her eyes sparkling.

There were few times when the commander of the Royal Knights evaluated someone as being of a high level compared to other knights.

She just waited for people to come to her and ask for her opinion on who should be admitted to the Royal Knights.

“Yes, Your Majesty. It is said that the youngest son of Marquis Laird used sword skills.”

“Is that true?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. The capital defense force conducted a re-investigation, and the Duke Adelaira’s escort knights testified.”

“I can hardly believe it. There aren’t many people who can use a sword skills. How old is the youngest son?”

“He turned 19 this year.”

“Hahaha! I didn’t hear wrong, did I?”

“No, Your Majesty.”

“I have met many knights so far, but I have never seen a knight who used a sword at the age of 19. What about Commander of the royal knights?”

“I have never seen one either.”

When Glenone first received the report, she was somewhat surprised.

She couldn’t believe it, and wondered if the capital defense force had made a mistake.

That’s why she demanded a review, but each time she received the same information.

“If that report is true… shouldn’t we bring him into the royal knights? I want to bring him here, even if I have to use the King’s seal.”

(TL: I was thinking of using ‘Queen’ instead but in ‘Raw’ It was writeen as a ‘King’ so I followed the original.)
