Yuito - Thirst Of Throne

Chapter 5

Seven high-ranking members are assigned to protect Yuito from enemies who are too powerful to fight. S Rank to A Rank are only for tasks assigned to high-ranking members. There are plenty of low rank royal guards who will sign the application before joining the high rank members. To be accepted by high rank members, they must complete the B Rank task without being killed by enemies who are dangerous. However, no one had completed the task, and only a few people were promoted to be the next high rank members.

What was that...

I have no idea...

Is this my first task as a high-ranking member?...

I think I heard something. Who is he? It's the first time I've heard this voice. The sound is horrifying. "Riley. Are you all right? For the time being, you are dozing off. "What happened to you?" Mom...I'm not sure...this mixed feeling happens to me. I'm both excited and terrified. "Riley?" Mom.. I'd like to respond to your question, but my body is frozen and I'm becoming numb. I'm not sure what happened, mom. Is it because the meeting of high-ranking members is too terrifying? I can feel the horror dark aura and the mischievous grin from the members I have yet to meet. Why....How... What...

"Riley!"

"Mom," I'm astounded. Was I drowsy before? " Why is my mother so upset? "Riley Asuma Mcgranger! What exactly are you thinking right now? You're ignoring me and not saying anything! Is there something going on with you? " Mom...please... I'm embarrassed. Don't yell at me in public. There are a lot of people watching me. I'm completely mortified. "No, mom. I feel my mission is approaching...now...there is something that will happen after this..."

"WHAT! NO, NO, NO!! There is no such thing as a mission that involves wasting yourself and me. Today is the day to celebrate. Riley, please don't ruin our mood. Don't you want to see your friends? Riley, go meet your friends now and never say anything stupid to me again. You must!"

Mom. I'm not making this up. This is true. The queen's call seems off to me. I need to meet with my friends first to inform them that I need to reschedule our meeting for today. Now I'm feeling uneasy.

Meanwhile, Ayata sprints to the nearest area to seek assistance. He notices that there is no one there. He's wondering where everyone is. Thank God, he finally met someone who was still resting in front of his house, watching the sheeps from afar. Ayata approaches him and awakens him.

The man appears terrified at first, but calms down when he finds Ayata. He's asking Ayata where he came from. Ayata explains everything about the riverbank incident to him. The man listened intently to Ayata's every word.

Following the explanation, the man stood up and prepared a spear with a shield in both hands. He introduces himself as Douma, the low-ranking royal guard in WOODLANDS. He enjoys caring for sheep and gardening.
