You think you're worthy of saving the world?

"What happened!?"

The nobles gasped in surprise.

"Your Majesty, it's an assassin! Please don't leave me!"

Yuri's voice echoed throughout the huge hall.

In an instant, a cacophony of noise, shouts, screams, and the sound of glasses falling to the ground mingled together.

Meanwhile, the figures who had infiltrated the venue also began their operation.

The dolls with ball joints crawled towards them with great agility, their movements reminding Yuri of monsters from horror movies.

"Lord Euryphus!"

"let me!"

The Prophet wrapped one arm around Celestia's waist, protecting her by his side, while his other hand spread out five fingers.

"Firestorm!"

In an instant, jet-black flames shot out from Yuri's palm.

The magical flames traveled in a straight line across the venue, eventually exploding on the bodies of the puppet assassins.

With the sound of limbs breaking, the ball-jointed dolls were completely consumed by Yuri's raging flames.

"call……"

Yuri finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the raging flames of the calamity.

Although what just happened was very dangerous, the opponent was surprisingly weak...

They're just a bunch of small fry that even I could easily kill.

To be honest, these guys couldn't possibly hurt Celestia, I really went to all this trouble—

"Lord Euryphus~?"

Looking down, he saw Celestia gazing up at him with a lovestruck expression.

"...Uh, are you alright, Your Majesty?"

Yuri instinctively tried to let go of the Elf Queen, but found herself being held tightly in her arms.

"I'm saved! Thanks to you, Lord Euryphus! You protected me!"

Celestia took advantage of the chaos to bury her face in his chest.

"...?"

Something feels wrong.

Yuri looked around in astonishment, seeing nobles everywhere huddled in panic behind cover or under tables.

After searching for a long time, I finally found Rosalia.

She sat calmly and elegantly sipping her red wine in a corner chair.

"..."

Yuri suddenly realized what was going on, as if he understood what was happening.

"I'm speechless..."

Yuri turned to look at the Elf Queen beside him. The latter, who had been looking shaken, immediately stuck out her tongue playfully after being glared at.

At that moment, the main entrance to the venue was kicked open, and Betty finally arrived at the scene with the mansion's guards.

"Your Highness!"

"An assassin appeared! Lord Euryphus intervened and defeated the assassin—"

In the quiet hall, Rosalia's solemn and resounding declaration could be heard.

"The Child of Prophecy protected the Elf Queen."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the nobles around him looked at him with great respect.

Although it happened in the blink of an eye, they all saw it—

The entire process of the prophesied son bravely shielding the Elf Queen from harm and killing the assassin.

"You did a good job."

Rosalia walked gracefully up to Yuri, crossed her arms, and spoke condescendingly.

"I will consult with His Majesty the Emperor and have him award you honors. Whether it's a title, a fief, or money, just name your reward."

"Lord Euryphus, thank you very much for protecting me, and I intend to award you a fitting reward."

Celestia took his arm and said happily, "From now on, Euryphus Falción is the hero of the Holy Tree Kingdom."

Yuri's lips twitched: "..."

So you've finally revealed your true intentions, haven't you?

Assassins don't exist at all.

Those automatons were probably inferior products made by Rosalia.

From the very beginning, this social gathering was a stage set up by the Grand Duchess and the Elf Queen to allow Yuri to receive a reward.

Yuri had subtly suggested to the two that it would be good if the world knew they were his supporters.

At the same time, in their eyes, it was extremely unfair that Yuri saved them time and time again in the singularity, yet received no reward.

So they conspired to carry out a clumsy assassination, which Yuri, with her extensive combat experience, could easily thwart.

To ensure Yuri could steal the spotlight, Rosalia not only deliberately reduced the number of guards at the mansion, but also transferred her equally unaware daughter away.

That's truly a well thought-provoking idea.

Yuri sighed: "Although I'm happy that you two have such good intentions, isn't this a bit too frivolous?"

Just to give me a small reward, you've caused such a commotion...

If I hadn't reacted in time, wouldn't something terrible have happened?

But I guess this is also a sign that they believe in their own abilities... Oh well.

"What's wrong, Your Holiness? Are you unhappy?" Rosalia asked.

No...not at all.

Yuri leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "Why did you keep this from me?"

Although Yuri disliked this kind of politician-style acting, he wouldn't refuse if Rosalia and Celeste asked him to do it themselves.

"We're hiding this from you... because we want to know, Lord Yuri, who you'll protect first."

Rosalia raised an eyebrow and said, "I'm sorry that you chose to pounce on Celestia..."

If I looked even more pitiful, would my knight choose me?

"..."

Yuri was sweating profusely.

"Just kidding, that was the right judgment. Celeste is, after all, my honored guest. It's amazing that you were able to react in that instant."

Rosalia gave a seductive smile, then raised her right arm: "I'll allow you to be the first man to kiss the back of my hand, Your Majesty."

Yuri quickly lowered his head and, amidst the envious gazes of the Elf Queen and the other nobles, kissed the back of the Grand Duchess's hand, a kiss he had given countless times before.

Thus, the "assassination operation" against the Elf Queen ended in failure.

The social gathering, which was supposed to last until the evening, had to be ended early.

The nobles, still shaken, felt a sense of relief upon hearing the Grand Duchess announce, "You may all return now."

As they left, the nobles were still excitedly discussing Euryphus, the prophesied son, and his heroic performance.

Euryphus, who had only heard rumors before, has now witnessed his performance firsthand.

The nobles praised him highly, their excitement evident in their words.

Of course, the nobles could never have known that all of this was just a show that Rosalia and Celestia had personally staged to promote their young boyfriends.

Politicians are so dirty...

Yuri felt a surge of emotion.

Even though I benefited greatly, I have no right to say such things.

Rosalia symbolically told the nobles, "Please don't spread what happened today," but how could it not get out?

I believe that after today, the story of the prophesied son's valiant protection of the Elf Queen will spread like wildfire throughout the Holy See, and his reputation will be further enhanced.

And so, the "assassination attempt" came to an end, and Yuri and the women he loved returned to their peaceful lives.

how is this possible.

The Elf Queen was attacked in a foreign land, and the aftermath of the incident alone was enough to shock the world.

That evening, after all the guests had left, the location was moved to the Grand Duke's living room—

"Mother!"

An elven girl strode quickly into the room.

Her long, silver hair evoked moonlight, and she wore a slender, elegant rapier at her waist. Her light blue military uniform exuded a dignified and dashing aura.

Yuri knew the name of this elf with terrifying beauty.

Grandia, the second princess of the Sacred Tree Kingdom.

Unlike Celestia, who has not yet actually appeared in "Goddess of the End," she is an SSR character who has already been implemented in the game.

In the game's storyline, Grandia is a proud and haughty elf princess.

She grew up in the Kingdom of the Sacred Tree and was proud to be a descendant of the noble Goddess of the White Night.

However, through reading, she also learned that in the distant past, humans on the continent had sold elves as slaves, which led to their aversion and prejudice against humans.

In short, he is a racist high elf, a common trait in fantasy works.
