Chapter 130: 15-year-old Inglis and Hyrule Menaces' Escorting Directive (38)
Going back to before Inglis began to engage the Black Mask. At the time the Royal Palace was swarmed with Magic Stone Beasts due to the Ironblood Chain Brigade’s handiwork…
「O-, oi! There’s a commotion over at the castle! It’s on fire!」 「W-what!? Y-, you’re right!」
The Knights of the Imperial Guard Order, who were in the Academy for Ripple’s transfer, noticed the disaster that befell the Royal Palace and began to kick up a fuss.
Silva, who was working with them, urged them on.
He was helping the preparation of Ripple’s transfer to the Imperial Guard Order’s base in the castle later tonight.
「I don’t know what happened, but it can’t be good! Isn’t it better to go back and check on it right now!? I’ll continue with the handover process!」
Silva was the younger brother of their Commander Redas. His words couldn’t be taken lightly, and he did make a point too.
「You’re right. Roger that, Mister Silva!」 「Sure! We can’t possibly bring Lady Ripple with us if we can’t make sure she’ll be safe!」 「We’ll take our leave! Please take care of the rest!」
The Knights hopped onto their Flygears and took off for the Royal Palace. Looking at their shrinking backs, Silva was attacked by pangs of guilt.
