Are you worthy of saving the world?

Rosalia glanced at the boy in her arms, sighed softly, and then began to explain to him.

In the past two weeks, an assassin has appeared in the Vatican City, targeting the imperial nobles and politicians.

The Augusta nobles living in the upper town were assassinated one after another.

The cause of death was being stabbed with a sharp knife or having the heart pierced, and it can basically be determined that it was done by the same murderer.

Because the victims were all from the Augusta Empire, the assassin was suspected to be from the Kingdom of Alsace, which had been gradually falling out with the Empire in recent years.

"So what is the truth?" Yuli asked.

Rosalia shook her head: "I don't know. The murderer is still at large. We can only know the truth after we catch him."

In any case, because of the appearance of the assassin, the imperial nobles living in the upper city are now in danger.

If this continues, the conflict between Augusta and Alsace may escalate.

As the emperor's special envoy, Rosalia naturally had the task of investigating the murderer fall on her.

"It is a heavy responsibility, Your Highness," said Yuri.

"It really is... at a time like this."

Rosalia stroked the back of the boy's head and sighed helplessly.

I had originally thought that by escaping from the imperial capital to the Vatican I would be able to get away from the center of work and enjoy a tryst with my beloved son, but I didn't expect to run into something like this.

"No clue at all?"

Yuri asked absentmindedly.

"The assassin's name is 'Ghost'. According to the maid who witnessed the murder, it was as if he was surrounded by darkness... Yuri?"

Rosalia looked at the boy in her arms in surprise and narrowed her eyes sharply: "Could it be someone you know?"

"........."

Yuri hesitated for a moment, then nodded in acknowledgment.

"Ghost"——

That is the name of an SSR character in "Goddess Apocalypse".

His profession is assassin.

The characteristics are just as Her Highness Rosaria said, a mysterious person who seems to be shrouded in darkness.

Since it is a card pool character, the gender is naturally female.

Not only that, this "Phantom" lady also has a deep connection with Teacher Dafei...

I didn't expect that she would have already started taking action at this point...?

In this case, I can't fall behind.

"Your Highness, if possible, please leave the task of catching the assassin to me."

Yuri's expression turned serious.

"No," the Grand Duchess said sternly.

"Why did you answer so quickly!" Yuli said dissatisfiedly.

Rosaria met his gaze and said, "I don't know how you know Phantom, but he's very dangerous...

Several members of the Temple Knights who assisted in the investigation were also killed. The Phantom is a powerful assassin and is not someone you can easily defeat. "

"The opponent's strength is far stronger than mine. Of course I know that."

Yuli remained calm: "But it's okay, leave her to me."

"..."

Rosalia looked at Yuli deeply, and finally sighed helplessly.

She knew very well that once Yuli showed such an expression, nothing she said would be of any significance.

Now she only regretted why she had been so talkative and mentioned such things to Yuli.

"After you get off the bus, ask Betty for detailed information about the "Ghost."

Rosalia cupped Yuri's cheeks: "You have to be more careful."

"Good~"

Yuli nodded heavily, then supported himself on the carriage seat and was about to stand up.

Rosalia's eyes widened.

"Wait, not now... woooo!!!"

The moment Yuli stood up suddenly, the Grand Duchess also tilted her neck back.

"Say something before you pull it out, idiot!"

Rosalia blushed and drove Yuli out of the carriage.

……

……

……

After getting off the carriage, Yuli went to the front and found Betty waiting there.

The Archduchess's personal bodyguard has bright grey hair and a slender figure.

Unlike her half-sister Patty, Betty also had fair skin and looked like the daughter of an aristocratic family.

In fact, she was also the daughter of a noble, but an illegitimate one.

The two sisters served Rosalia, one as a maid and the other as a guard. This combination reminded Yuli of his own Annabelle and Irene.

"Thank you. I'll take the information."

Yuli took the folder from Betty.

"It doesn't matter. Since it is His Highness's request..."

Betty stared at Yuli's face and said bluntly: "What is your purpose in doing this? Do you want to please His Highness?"

"Although there is this factor involved, it's mainly for myself."

After saying this, Yuli waved to the two sisters and turned away.

Meanwhile, at the other end of the street.

"That's...little Yuri?"

The three vice-captains of the Lily Cross happened to pass by here while taking a walk after dinner.

"It's Yuri, for sure. His house isn't in this direction, right?"

Ruby frowned slightly, and Safia echoed, "Hmm...this is so suspicious, I think I smell adultery!"

"Wait...don't."

Emerod tried to stop him, but it was too late.

"Yuli!" "Little Yuli!"

Ruby and Safia called out to the Child of Prophecy.

"?"

Yuri turned around and when he noticed the three of them, his expression suddenly froze—

But I happened to be bumped into by the guys I least should have met.

They probably didn't realize that the carriage belonged to the Valentine family, as there was no family crest on it.

"Uh... why are you here?" Yuri asked

"My home is nearby." Ruby answered as if it was a matter of course. "Compared to this, why did Yuri come here?"

"Uh……"

Yuri's eyes quickly scanned the faces of the three people, thinking of a reasonable explanation in his mind.

"Which rich lady's carriage is that?"

Safia put her arm around the boy and threatened him with a smile, "Confess the truth to your sister!"

Can Rosalia be considered a rich lady... Yuli was speechless.

"He's not satisfied with having Cecilia and me, and he's even having a tryst with other girls at night!"

Ruby put her arms around the boy's neck from the other side and elbowed him in the chest repeatedly: "Is it a kid from school? Do we know each other? Ah... Could it be, it's Camus-san?"

Safia covered her lips and said with a wicked smile: "Little Yuli, have you finally awakened to that sexual fetish? I am so relieved!"

"You two... stop it!"

The person who spoke up to stop it was not Yuri, but Emerald.

Being stared at angrily by the black-haired, green-eyed girl, Safia and Ruby quickly let go of Yuri and lowered their heads like children who had done something wrong.

"I'm sorry, Lord Yuri, please don't take their words to heart."

Emerrod held the back of Ruby and Safiya's heads, and the three of them bent over together.

"Ah, it's okay." Yuli waved his hands quickly.

With the help of senior Emerod, Yuli finally managed to escape from Ruby and Safia.

"Huh, Emerod is becoming more and more like Yuri's mother."

Ruby complained after the four of them parted ways.

"But...what was that carriage just now?"

Safia stroked his chin, feeling that he had seen that carriage somewhere before.

"There's an ice cream stall over there." Emerrod pointed to a place not far away and said.

"Ah! Really! I want to eat!" "I've almost digested my dinner." "Does Safia want to eat too?" "Yes, Ruby's treat!" "Hey~~"

"……call."
