The students and teachers who saw the golems flying into the sky were suddenly dumbfounded. They saw a person in a black robe and mask hovering in the sky. After that, the golems that were heading towards him started to scatter in the sky as they were being chased by something. One by one the golems were swallowed into the rips of space that were like a monster's mouth. The students froze when they saw the scene before them. The foreign golems that were previously hard to beat were now like prey being chased by hunters.
"As usual you are amazing!!"
"...Amazing!"
Princess Freya and Princess Iris said in unison. They looked at each other for a while then averted their eyes and pretended not to hear what each other said.
"The golems lost so easily?" Kyouka was surprised at how much of a difference their strength was with the black-robed person.
"Who's he?" Hikaru asked Prince Torin. Since he was summoned to this world not so long ago, he didn't know what had happened on the Clorius continent including the people involved in it.
"I don't know either. This is my first time seeing him." Prince Torin shook his head. He was just as shocked as the heroes.
"Brother, it seems that person is the one involved in the incident that happened to the Piqmentia Grand Academy students in the Alba Mountain range. It was mentioned in the report, I'm sure you've read it too." Princess Melkia reminded Prince Torin of the report they had read recently.
"You mean the exaggerated report?" Prince Torin sneered after remembering that.
"What do you mean exaggerated?" Kyouka asked curiously at his words.
"Recently there was a great earthquake in all areas of the clorius continent. The epicenter of the earthquake was in the Alba Mountain range and coincidentally at that time, the students of Piqmentia Grand Academy were attacked by an unknown race. In the report, it was explained that a mysterious person wearing a mask was helping and he dropped a boulder from the sky which eventually flattened the entire mountain area." Prince Torin explained in detail the report he had read before.
"Torin, I don't think it's an exaggeration. What is described in the report corresponds to what happened because we saw it with our own eyes. As for the earthquake that occurred, I don't know if the boulder impact was the cause or not. But the report is true." Prince Fritz did not deny the reports that Prince Torin had explained
"What he said is true, Prince Torin." Princess Rinne nodded slightly in response to Prince Fritz's explanation.
"In that case, wouldn't you guys not need to summon heroes if there was such an existence?" Kyouka narrowed her eyes and looked at Princess Reina and Prince Albert.
"You don't know, that person's whereabouts are completely unknown. He's friend or foe nobody knows. He's like a bomb ready to explode at any moment. So our only option to fight against such an existence is to summon heroes from another world." Prince Albert smiled bitterly in response to Kyouka's sharp question.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"You're right. Even though that person is strong but we don't know anything about him. I understand how you feel." Hikaru nodded in agreement with Prince Albert's explanation. Kyouka and Megumi couldn't help but sigh after hearing him quickly agree to the other's words.
"But, is he that strong?" Prince Torin still doubts it.
"Haven't you seen it in person?" Princess Freya was not happy with his words and asked him back. But Prince Torin just kept silent and couldn't answer her question.
While they were talking about Ziel, Princess Aishia looked at the sky to find Ziel's whereabouts. She was silent as she thought of something. After everything that had happened so far, she could conclude one thing.
"He should be among us academy students." Princess Aishia mumbled her speculation. The answer he got was because ziel always appeared at the same time they were in danger. The key to all this was Kalya.
"I'll find you, Ziel. You can't hide from me forever." Princess Aishia was determined in her heart.
When the golem attack incident was over. The students prepare to return to the castle, Clara looked around for someone who had been with her before. But she just found out that Ziel is no longer by her side.
"Iris, have you seen Ken?" Clara asked Princess Iris next to her.
"Hmm... ah there he is!" When Princess Iris was confused about how to answer, she saw Ziel walking towards them.
"Ken! Where have you been!?" Clara ran and hugged him. She ignored the people around who saw her. Princess Iris was shocked to see Clara's act so bold in public.
"I'm sorry, my lady. I was left behind while escaping from those golems. By the way..." Ziel tried to remind Clara that they were being stared at by a lot of people.
"What is it?" Clara tilted her head. Then she realized that she was currently hugging him. Her face suddenly turned red like an apple and quickly distanced herself from Ziel.
"That... I got carried away! I was worried that you might get hurt because of those golems! So when I saw you, my body reflexively hugs you!" Clara tried not to look at the people around her. She hid between Lilith and Princess Iris.
"I see. You don't have to worry about it. So are we going back to the castle?" Ziel tried to change the subject. But before anyone answered him, their attention turned to Merlick and King Gustave who had just arrived.
"Dad! Where have you been! Don't you know that we are in danger!?" Princess Reina immediately complained when she saw her father.
"Ahaha...I'm sorry. I have an important matter with Merlick. When we returned to the castle, we were told that you were attacked by that golem again. That's why we came here at full speed. But who would have thought that the golem been defeated, so I didn't have a chance to test the strength of the golem." King Gustave explained the reason to Princess Reina. He seemed disappointed that the golems were gone when he got there.
"Haa... So are we going back to the castle now?" Prince Albert was tired and wanted to rest soon.
"You'll be free until tonight. But if you want to stay around the city, you'll have to be in groups and be guarded by one teacher." Merlick answered the question.
The reactions of the students varied, some were happy and some had the same feelings as Prince Albert, they wanted to rest because they were tired after facing the previous incident.
"Ken, how about we have lunch outside? You agree, don't you? Lilith? Iris?" Clara cheerfully invites them. Ziel just nodded slightly in response.
"I'll come with you." Princess Iris has no other activities after returning to the castle. She'd rather go out with Clara than be bored in the room.
"Me too." Lilith had no other choice but to go with her.
"Ken, how about we invite your friends too? Wouldn't it be more fun if it was more crowded?" Clara suddenly gave them an idea.
"I'll ask them first." Ziel sighed and walked over to Dalvin and James. Coincidentally Rhea was also with them. When Ziel invites them to eat together, Rhea is the first to agree. Dalvin and James couldn't help but smile and finally came along with her too.
When they had all gathered and were about to go find a place to have lunch, Dalvin suddenly remembered something.
"Don't we need a teacher for a group of this size?" Dalvin looked at Ziel and the others in turn. They were just silent and didn't seem to think about it either. When Clara was about to ask her aunt who is also the academy teacher, Beatrix Artvika to accompany them. Suddenly a girl's melodious voice interrupted them.
"I will accompany you." Kalya comes out of the crowd and comes to them. She came not because she overheard their conversation, but because Ziel secretly asked for it and Kalya accepted it happily. He felt calmer if Kalya accompanied them. Besides, he doesn't know any other teacher besides her and Beatrix.
"That..." Clara hesitantly agreed to her offer.
"It would be better if I accompanied them, Miss Kalya." Beatrix originally wanted to accompany them. Unfortunately, Kalya said it first. But because her nephew was there, she also had to take care of her because she had promised Clara's parents.
"Most of them are students of my class. Of course, I have to accompany them. I hope you can understand that." Kalya shakes her head at Beatrix's request. She still insisted on accompanying them.
"Haa... Fine. But please take care of Clara for me." Beatrix quickly gave up because what kalya said made a lot of sense.
"Hmm... can I join you guys?" Princess Freya suddenly appeared from behind and took them by surprise.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Aren't you coming with your friend Princess Freya?" Clara was confused at Princess Freya's sudden request.
"Ah, they are busy with their activities." Princess Freya answered awkwardly. She looked away so she wouldn't be caught lying. Right now she doesn't get along with Princess Aishia and her relationship with the other Princesses and heroes isn't that close either. So when she heard what Clara had said, she decided to go with them.
Kalya and Princess Iris raised their eyebrows when they heard Princess Freya's answer. They knew what she said was a lie. But they just kept quiet and let Clara decide.
"What do you think?" Kalya could not immediately answer it and asked for their opinion. One by one they nodded their heads and in the end, they all agreed. After that Clara and the others went together looking for a place to have lunch first.

Somewhere in the Dwarven Kingdom, a girl in a black robe and wearing a mask was sitting in a large room. She suddenly slammed the chessboard in front of her.
"Damn!" She shouted to vent her anger.
"Miss Rosier! What exactly happened?" The middle-aged woman with a pentagon crystal on her forehead was shocked by what the black-robed girl suddenly did. Her name was Brolia, the subordinate of the black-robed girl named Rosier.
"All my dolls in this kingdom disappeared at the same time!" Rosier gritted her teeth trying to contain her anger.
"What!? Do you know who did it!?" Brolia was taken aback by the answer. He knew the power and uniqueness of the golems created by Rosier. They were as strong as Magic Kings and numbered almost in the hundreds and spread to all corners of the Dwarven Royal Capital. But she said all her golems were destroyed at the same time. Of course, this makes Brolia very shocked.
"I don't know because he also wears a mask. But his power is unbelievable. Even if I only glimpsed it, his power is quite frightening." Rosier explained what she saw through her golems before they disappeared.
"So, what should we do, miss?" Brolia became even more confused about how to deal with such an enemy. She awaits the decision and orders from Rosier.
"We will directly fight him. I still have a trump card left. I will use it if it is necessary. When I take it out even this kingdom will be destroyed in seconds. For now, we have to get out of here. I'm afraid he will track us down. This is not the time for us to act." Rosier got up from her seat and walked out of the room.
"Yes, miss." Brolia followed behind her and closed the door of the room. Not long after they left, the room exploded.
Boooooooommmmmm!

The night in the Dwarven Kingdom was quieter than the day. Most of their residents were fast asleep in their beds. Although there had been a fairly large incident during the day, it seemed that the residents had forgotten about it in just a matter of hours.
Ziel was currently walking in the city park located in the square of the Dwarven Kingdom's capital. He wears a black robe to hide his identity. He walked with an elf with green hair clinging to him. She walked while linking her hands with Ziel. Apart from the two of them, everyone else had returned to the castle tired and wanted to rest. He walks alone with Kalya as he wants to talk to her about something. But Kalya thinks it's a date and Ziel can't do anything about it. The two of them stopped and sat on a park bench filled with beautiful colorful lights.
"Ziel, what do you want to talk about?" Kalya rested her head on his shoulder. She acts spoiled when she's alone with him.
"Before that, how long are you two going to hide?" Ziel said softly, but his voice echoed directly into the ears of the two hiding people.
