However, Yuri did not make the mistake of letting out a sound of surprise.

Like any master swordsman, he moved in complete silence.

The visitor was a maid from Bezos Castle.

He felt his heart leap out of his chest, but as a swordsman who had overcome his instincts, he suppressed all reaction except widening his eyes.

“……!”

Just as he swung his legs over the bed to sit up, the door opened.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

Yuri hurried after her.

“Hey…”

She simply gave Yuri a slight silent bow, said nothing, and placed a pitcher of water and a glass filled with a red liquid on the bedside table next to Maryrose.

Then she covered everything with a cloth and left the room.

“Yes, Your Highness?”

Out in the hallway, Yuri timidly spoke to the maid, who was walking casually.

She seemed calm.

Yuri asked.

“Why… why was I sleeping there?”

But those who serve high-ranking nobles are usually skilled at hiding their emotions. abstract Deep down, she might very well have thought of him as a shameless prince.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

Her clear eyes seemed to judge him, and Yuri looked away.

The maid looked at him silently.

“Last night…”

“Yes.”

“Your Highness.”

He shut his eyes tightly. attic For some reason, the image of Yekaterina’s face flashed through his mind—her expression twisted in deep scorn.

Yuri opened his mouth.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

“Huh?”

As he sank into shame, he heard the maid’s voice again.

“So the real question should be why the Archmage was there, not you.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

“My room?”

“Your Highness was the one who lay down first. atlas After all, that is your room.”

The maid pointed behind him. abstract When he turned around, Yuri saw a piece of paper stuck to the door.

“Yuri’s Room.”

“Yuri’s Room”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

A little farther away was Maryrose’s room. antenna True to her style, she hadn’t written her name, but had drawn a rose with a heart on it.

Of course, that was his room.

“What did you bring just now?”

“It’s wine.”

“The Duchess asked that it be placed by her bedside for her morning remedy—before she got drunk.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

Leaving behind his guilt, Yuri nodded.

“Huh?”

It made no sense, but ever since Maryrose entered his room, nothing had made sense.

“She said she’d cure her hangover with wine…”

“I see. acid So it wasn’t my fault.”

“And for the record, nothing happened.”

“Shall I prepare a bath for you?”

“To fall asleep like that… so embarrassing.”

“Please do.”

“Ugh…”

“A knight can’t handle that?”

“Well, if only we could cultivate…”

“Your Highness…”

“Without a doubt, Your Highness!”

“Anyone who can’t take care of his weapon or his horse can’t rule the world!”

“We’ll get provisions along the way. galaxy Dried meat and rations will do.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

“Yes.”

“Are you sure?”

Since they were promised the same treatment as soldiers, they gladly accepted.

“They’re…”

“Where are the ronin?”

“I only drank a little. academy I avoid drinking.”

“Wow, a prestigious sect?”

“I’ll leave you a task while I’m gone. admire By the time I return, you must have mastered the language. zenith Can you do that?”

“Plenty of time.”

“Loyalty!”

“Yes!”

Their eyes were sharp.

“……”

Once things had calmed down, Yuri looked across the faces of the squad and declared:

“Yes!”

“If we leave them alone, they’ll fall into the Empire’s hands. anxiety So we’re going to teach them a lesson. canvas Don’t you think?”

“That’s why it’ll be just us.”

“You’re right!”

Yuri looked around at all the members of the Vengeance Squad.

“Briol’s knights are the best on the continent. acquire Am I wrong?”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

Especially Yuri, their leader, along with Jared, Simon, and Guinness—top-tier knights anywhere.

“We’ll show those cowards what a real knight is. wizard The Alliance will try to protect their pride, but it doesn’t matter. wizard Pride without skill must be broken. arrow Isn’t that right?”

It was a relatively young squad, but their skills were second to none.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

Yuri gave his final words to the squad and headed toward Hernando, who was watching from behind.

“We depart soon. amateur Be ready.”

“Yes!”

Hernando winked.

He hesitated a moment before speaking.

Yuri looked at Maryrose one last time.

“……”

“Do a good job.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

Maryrose smiled like nothing had happened. airport Just as Yuri turned to leave with a nod, he heard a soft voice.

“So cold…”

“Yees~.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 232: While the Enemy Sleeps (2) by Indra Translations.

“Haah… kuh… aaargh…”
