One year later. Lugunica, Capital.
•••
Somewhere in the Kingdom of Lugunica, to be more exact in the capital. In an area that at first glance can be seen what is for people with high status, outside one of the houses in the place was a carriage for Nobles.
On one side of him were two young people, a beautiful young woman with pink hair and a maid's outfit, this young woman was Ram. Next to her was a young man in black clothes and hair collected in a ponytail who was arguing with Ram. And for obvious reasons, this young man was Kaito.
"So, are you saying that you lost sight of Emilia from one moment to the next?"
"...I already said it was because someone stole his badge and he's chasing the thief...and wipe that smile off your face." With evident anger Ram looked at Kaito who seemed to be amused by what happened to Ram.
"Okay, okay, but you don't have to make that worried face, I know where Emilia is."
"Oh really?".
"Yeah, so you don't have to worry, leave everything to me."
"...Thank you so much". Speaking in a lowered but grateful tone, Ram looked at Kaito and showed him a smile that Kaito would never get bored of seeing.
"I'd better go, if I don't who knows what will happen."
"Be careful". With some concern, Ram spoke.
"Huh, thanks for your concern, Ram, but don't worry, no one can hurt me." Kaito confidently answered Ram.
"Hmph, who cares about someone like you…". Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Ram simply snorted and ignored Kaito.
"...In the same way thanks for your concern...Ram." Taking Ram's trembling hands, Kaito spoke softly to her.
Which, upon feeling Kaito's actions, did nothing and I tacitly accept it. And kaito, seeing her like this, only slightly squeezed Ram's hands and then released her hands. After doing all this, Kaito said goodbye to Ram and walked in one direction, so that after a few steps he disappeared from the place in a blink.
Seeing him leave, the feeling that Ram had towards Kaito grew again, she had already felt this feeling a year ago but she did not expect it to grow so much, well, although it is normal since in addition to socializing with her, Kaito also cured her of her horn and made that his strength returned to his statemaximum. But even though she has an extremely strong liking for Kaito, she worries about Emilia's feelings for Kaito. And that's the problem, since Emilia has told her a few times that love can only happen between two people.
So after knowing this, she once and for all spoke to Kaito not to move forward with their relationship, even if it hurt her a lot. But of course Kaito didn't give up and in the end he convinced her to wait a while and he was going to fix everything.
So since that day Ram has been waiting and it seems that Kaito is finally going to fix that matter. How much to help him with that? She won't, since Kaito wanted to follow the path of Polygamy so her taking on something made Kaito go for Emilia.
"Ah... I don't know why I fell in love with a guy like that...". Although it seemed that Ram was scolding Kaito with his words, but it was the opposite. Since she is really happy that Kaito had appeared in her life.
•••
Of course, Kaito had no knowledge of Ram's thoughts and if he had knowledge of Ram's thoughts, he would only agree with her. Because if he himself wants to make a Harem then let him take charge and of course he can't help but do it either.
It's already been a year since Kaito and Emilia came to the mansion. Although at first it was a bit difficult to gain the trust of Ram and Rem but with time Kaito was able to do it. And yes, Kaito also has, so to speak, a more ambiguous relationship with Rem than with Ram.
But for the moment Kaito has not mentioned it to Ram, since he knows that if he does it is very likely that he got angry and Kaito does not want to deal with it, although Kaito believes that Ram knows something and he just pretends not to see it and maybe in the future settled accounts with him.
"Fuck, I got myself in big trouble this time." Kaito couldn't help but mutter these words with some regret.
He knows that this time he got into big trouble, but anyway, who told him to literally be a bit of a jerk to start this kind of relationship?
"Huh? This is it?" When Kaito was going to the place where Emilia was through the roofs of the houses of the Barrio Bajo, he out of the corner of his eye saw a familiar figure which made him stop.
The reason is simple, in his vision he was able to capture a little girl with golden hair and red eyes running quickly through the streets. Her appearance was not as striking as her facial expression which reflected clear despair.
Seeing her, Kaito recognized her immediately, that little girl was Felt. And why she is like this Kaito gets an idea and apparently Emilia finds herself a bit entangled when fighting Elsa.
But Kaito is not worried about Emilia, since during this year he also taught her some ice magic and although at first she was reluctant to learn since she doesn't like the idea of fighting, in the end she had to accept after Kaito's insistence. Kaito. Claro Puck also helped in this matter.
Looking at Felt in such anguish, Kaito disappeared from the ceiling and appeared in front of Felt, at that moment Felt collided with Kaito causing her to lose her balance and fall backwards.
When Felt recovered from the shock it was already too late and she was about to fall to the ground, however when she was ready to receive the blow it did not come. Recovering from the shock, she realized that a young man in a black suit, with long hair and a beautiful face was holding her up to prevent her from falling.
Felt looked at Kaito in a daze for a while until she remembered her purpose, preparing to get out of Kaito's arms, the little girl realized that Kaito had a type of sword tied to his waist.
Seeing her, the first thought that crossed Felt's mind was that Kaito was some kind of gentleman, this assumption was further reinforced by seeing Kaito's elegant clothing.
Although he only had a shred of hope in his heart, Felt would not let the opportunity pass him by, so getting out of Kaito's arms, he looked at him with a clear expectation on his face. Felt spoke.
"Hey brother, are you a gentleman?"
"Yes, I am a gentleman." Kaito replied to Felt lightly.
"Really?, That's great... please come with me quickly, I need your help because two brothers are facing a crazy woman and they are in danger...!".
*Pat*.
"Take it easy". Kaito tried to reassure Felt by patting his head and speaking in a soft tone, but it didn't quite work.
"B-but...".
"Okay, nothing will happen to them, besides, I was looking for one of the brothers you mentioned so all the more reason I won't let anything happen to them, so let's go." Finishing speaking, Kaito extended his hand to Felt, which after hesitating for a few seconds, he also extended his hand, grabbing Kaito's.
In the next moment Kaito and Felt disappeared from the place. The next moment they had already reached the place of the cabin, which was already totally destroyed by the combat and apart from that several meters around it was already covered by Ice.
Regarding the situation of the people. Subaru barely withstands Elsa's attacks however he was still injured in some parts of her body. With Emilia, the situation is much better, but even so, she had some scratches on her clothes and she looked a little tired from using Ice magic for so long, which by the way, from using it so much, the surroundings almost turned into a second forest. of Elior.
Finally, there is Ron, who has more injuries than Subaru as he is the tank in the battle, but still continues to fight despite his injuries.
After contemplating his surroundings, Kaito was ready to intervene in the fight but he stopped doing so and of course he also stopped Felt. Since this is a good opportunity for Emilia to practice and on the one hand leave that goodness when facing enemies that want to kill her, on the other hand now she is thinking about the reason why Elsa is attacking Emilia.
In the original story it is known that Elsa attacked Emilia since Roswaal asked for it in the assassins guild but now it is different since Roswaal does not have the need to do such a thing, well if he were to be Kaito he will think that he is a complete idiot and He doesn't value his life at all.
So out of curiosity, Kaito made Lumine that his Manas will look into this matter. And before long he got an answer. Apparently Pandora wants Emilia again to open the seal of the Elior forest. As for Elsa working for the Witch Cult, that's normal. Since the head of the Assassins Guild is an Archbishop of the Witch Cult and the leader of the Witch Cult is Pandora.
But Kaito doesn't care about this now, however he wrote this thing on the list of people to be deleted in the future. But going back to the topic, what Kaito is interested in now is to intervene in the combat, since if he doesn't do it, Emilia could be in danger, since even if Kaito taught Emilia this, he spends Magic in small attacks so as not to harm the people from the Barrio Bajo.
Wasting no more time, with a blink Kaito disappeared from the place where he was together with Felt, to later appear in front of Subaru who was about to be cut in two by Elsa.
When Kaito appeared he immediately stretched out his right arm and with two fingers of his hand he caught Elsa's blade, after doing so Kaito simply moved his fingers and the blade broke like glass.
Everyone was surprised by Kaito's appearance, Subaru because he saved him from certain death, Elsa because Kaito easily broke his weapon, Ron because he saw Felt next to Kaito and Emilia because she recognized who had appeared.
"Kaito!"
"Oh Emilia, sorry for being late, but now that I'm here you don't have to keep releasing your magic." Turning to see Emilia with a smile, Kaito spoke to her.
The moment Emilia heard Kaito's words, she stopped releasing magic from her hands and breathed a sigh of relief since she couldn't take it much longer if the confrontation continued.
Seeing Emilia's state, an apologetic look appeared on Kaito's face for a moment, he didn't want to see Emilia like that but I thought it was necessary for her to grow in strength and mentality.
"Who are you...?". While Kaito was thinking, a voice that was somewhat seductive but filled with a sense of danger reached his ears.
Turning his head forward, Kaito could see Elsa, who had already distanced himself from him for a certain distance and had an attitude fully prepared to defend himself from any attack.
"Who am I?... Hmm, well, let me introduce myself Elsa Granhiert, I'm Kaito, the knight of the young woman you want to kill, with that said, I don't have to explain the reason for my intervention, right?"
"You're right, you don't need to say more and neither do I since... I'll kill you all in this place."
"Tsk, Tsk... big words for someone so weak. Emilia get out of this place with this boy, the Elder over there, and this girl." Saying that, Kaito teleported Felt to Emilia's side.
After this, he pointed to Subaru and Ron who were stunned by his appearance and by the fact that they had suddenly healed from their injuries. But they weren't in a daze for long as Felt forcibly took them from the place.
Even if she is worried about Kaito she won't be stubborn and thinks it's better to leave so as not to drag Kaito's rear feet. Emilia on the side also understood this, so before leaving she spoke to Kaito without hiding her concern.
"Fine, I'll immediately leave this place. But be careful with that Kaito woman."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine, Emilia." Emilia simply listened to Kaito's words and felt relieved.
But he didn't want to waste time and be a burden for Kaito. So he quickly left the place along with Felt, Subaru, and Ron.
"Oh, they want to leave but...did I let them?" With the intention of stopping Emilia and the others, Elsa took out a new dagger from her clothes and was ready to throw it, but at any moment the figure of Kaito appeared in front of her, interrupting her actions.
Being a little angry that Kaito was stopping her over and over again since he arrived, Elsa decided to kill him first so that he would stop being a nuisance, being ready to cut Kaito she looked him in the eye and seeing him she could feel a sensation of extreme danger as if at any momentcould die.
Deciding to listen to her senses, Elsa prepared to distance herself once more from Kaito but before she did she could only see a hand in his eyes and then a strong pressure coming from his face.
Wanting to know what had happened, Elsa recovered from the sudden pain, she realized that Kaito is grabbing her face with a simple grip of his hand, but that simple grip made Elsa feel pain never before known.
Trying to get out of Kaito's grip quickly, Elsa sent a slash with her dagger with the intention of cutting Kaito's arm, but the expected source of blood did not appear and instead she only saw that her dagger made contact with Kaito's arm. broke like glass.
Being in shock at the disbelief of this fact, she was only awakened by Kaito's voice and the pain on his face that grew more and more.
"You know, Elsa Granhiert, people always have a bottom line that no one should cross... and do you know what one of my bottom lines is?" While speaking in a cold tone, Kaito exerted more strength in his grip.
Elsa: "...". At Kaito's words, with the pain that Elsa felt, she could not utter even half a word.
"One of my bottom lines is the girl you tried to kill earlier, ELSA!" Exerting more strength in his grip, Kaito looked at Elsa with a flat look but that same look made Elsa scared like she hasn't in a while.
He didn't know why this young man scared him so much, he was even scarier than Mother the Guild Leader. Thinking of ways to escape from this situation, she vElsa was enduring the pain that she felt in her head which seemed to explode at any moment.
Obviously aware of Elsa's thoughts, an evil smile appeared on Kaito's face and he without giving any warning stretched out his left hand and with it pierced Elsa's chest.
Withdrawing his hand, now Kaito had a small purple sphere in it, seeing what Kaito had, he simply threw Elsa to the ground as if it were garbage and paid no attention to it.
"I will tell you something very interesting and that is that there is a pain that is worse than a wound in the flesh, it is the pain of the Soul and so that you do not stay with the intrigue of how it feels, I will let you know". Continuing with his flat expression, Kaito squeezed the sphere in his left hand.
At the moment of doing so, Elsa's expression was completely distorted and she couldn't even resist the urge anymore and she screamed from the intense pain.
"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh...."
•••
While this whole situation was happening. In the distance, Emilia was talking to Felt and the others about what had happened. But suddenly the group heard an agonized scream coming from the place of the battle, which after a few seconds disappeared.
After hearing this shout, everyone was worried about the situation. And of course the most worried of her was Emilia, who without thinking went back to the place of the fight but before she entered, she collided with Kaito who suddenly appeared in front of her.
When she recovered from the blow, she only found Kaito's face who was smiling at her.
"Hey Kaito, are you okay? I just heard a scream so I thought something had happened to you...".
"Don't worry, nothing happened to me, I'm in excellent condition, by the way, you shouldn't worry about that woman either, I already took care of her." Consoling Emilia so she won't worry about Kaito, she slowly stroked her head causing her to ease the tension in her heart.
A harmonious atmosphere spread between the two of them for a few moments until it was broken by the voice of an annoying little girl.
"Hey brother Kaito, instead of flirting with the sister tell me what you did with that woman." Pronouncing those words, the place fell silent, Emilia for one part of her cheeks turned a little red and she took a few steps back, distancing herself from Kaito.
On the other hand, Subaru and Ron were just staring at this in a daze while eating dog food.
As for the protagonist of this that is Kaito, he already had a face as dark as the bottom of a pot, the reason is too simple and it is that this little brat who sometimes acts in a wild way or like a girl has just interrupted his moment with Emily.
Which not every time there are opportunities as good as this to deepen your relationship, so how can he not be angry when they interrupt him? So Kaito just looked at Felt with half-moon eyes and along with a smile on her face, he slowly approached Felt.
"Listen, you told me that he will tell you what happened with that woman, right? Then come and come so that I can tell you."
"E-eh, brother you are a bit scary with that face also, why do you have such a dark aura?" With some fear, Felt took a few steps back and tried to hide behind Emilia.
"Am I scary? Your brother is not a good person at all and as a good person he will tell you how he dealt with that woman." Without fading his smile or stopping his steps, Kaito continued to approach Felt.
"Who will believe you!? Sister, tell your boyfriend that I didn't come near me!?" Not believing Kaito's words, with a quick movement Felt hid behind Emilia and then uttered a few words that made the whole place go silent.
Emily: "...".
Kaito: "...".
Subaru: "...".
Ron: "...".
When the silence lasted for a considerable time, the one who broke this silence was Kaito.
"Hey Felt, although I liked your words but still it's time to teach you a lesson for your attitude."
"Huh?, don't come near...!, hey sister, tell him something. Hey!, why don't you say anything!? And why is your face as red as a tomato!?". With Felt's yelling, Elsa's affair ended.
•••
And With this atmosphere of harmony, the story of this world began that Kaito had been waiting for so much and that will bring him many pleasant surprises later... or maybe not.
