It was almost 30 years ago. There was a small country called Solomon in a disputed region on an island. Solomon was inferior to other nations in terms of strength, but it was well located and had such a strong defense that it was even called 'impregnable'.

"Impregnable. ......"

"Yes. You have been to the country of the Hero of Light before, right?　Vivarc, was it?　He was good at defensive strategies that took advantage of the terrain, just like there.

I see.

　It is true that Vivarc was also called a "natural fortress.

　It must have had a very strong defensive capability.

"But Solomon is still a small country without power, and in the face of an overwhelming volume of goods, the defensive strategy it boasts of utilizing the terrain is meaningless. In other words, Solomon has been able to maintain peace because the surrounding countries have always fought each other and remained small.

"That's ironic. ...... It is ironic ...... that Solomon was able to remain at peace because of the constant strife around him.

It's ironic, isn't it? That was the time. That is why Solomon's people lived in fear. All they could think about was the day that would come.

　Needless to say, "that day" will be the day when Solomon is invaded.

　I am sure they were not at peace, as were the people of Berkoua.

"Then one day," he said, "Solomon was given a third king. Solomon had a third princess. And not just any princess. At the moment of her birth, a shining shield appeared as if to bless her birth, and a warm light enveloped her and her stunned mother. Yes, the princess was the saint of the shield.

　I heard that when Elma was born, a holy sword appeared in front of her eyes.

　I was only about one year old at the time, so I don't remember much at all.

Besides, her eyes had a mysterious glint in them, as if she could see everything. The king was convinced. He was convinced that she would be the hope of Solomon. But if other countries knew about it, it would be the worst thing that could happen. Therefore, the fact that the princess was the saint of the shield was made a top national secret. --Until the day she was put on the battlefield.

"Sent into battle." ......

　No way!　I furrowed my brow, but Shiva nodded and said, "Yes.

Solomon decided to go out on his own. Solomon decided to strike out on his own, using the absolute protective power of the saint of the shield and her all-seeing eye. I could see everything that was going on around the person I was looking at, so I was able to see the enemy's entire position.

...... I see. But ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I agree. The first time I went in, I peed my pants because I was so scared.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Shiva cowered her shoulders in a light tone of voice, but her feelings at the time must not have been very sympathetic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, dear.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was probably looking too sad, but Shiva softened her tone and said, "You are really a kind person, aren't you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You are really a kind person, aren't you? You don't have to look so sad because it's already in the past. But thank you. I'm very glad you feel that way.

No. ......

Solomon's rapid march continued like that, and eventually the long history of conflict came to an end. Solomon united all the nations.

"And that didn't bring peace ......?"

　In response to my modest question, Shiva nodded and said, "Yes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, we did have a moment of peace. If it had lasted that long, it would have been a nice tourist attraction by now, wouldn't it?　Some of the places were quite beautiful."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But it didn't, Shiva continues.

The biggest fear after the war was that it would return to a war-torn world. The biggest fear after the war was that the rebels would take away the power of the saint of the shield, who created this situation. Well, the situation was unified, but not everyone was convinced, and that was to be expected.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

......Yes, that's right. If people were that easily convinced, I don't think there would have been any conflict in the first place.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, that's right. The king and the country's top officials thought that, since they did not know who might betray them at any time, they should not be afraid of such a dangerous existence. "Then, they thought, 'Why don't we just get rid of such a dangerous existence?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, it's too selfish. I agree. The name "Shield" is not a bad one, though. In the end, we couldn't kill her and she escaped not only from the country but also from the island.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I didn't know that was the case. ......

　I had no idea that Shiva had lived such a hard life.

The actual "I've been in the market for a while now, and I'm not sure what I'm going to do now," he said.

　I'm sure she went through a lot of hardships in her life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I vowed to myself once again and clenched my fists tightly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then, Shiva said, "Oh, by the way," he added playfully, "Solomon was destroyed soon after that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Solomon was destroyed soon after that. "Well, of course," Shiva said playfully. The kings seemed to think that peace would continue once I was gone, but it was only because of me that they were able to suppress the power of other nations. They took the opportunity to stage a coup d'etat, which led to a conflict, and eventually the whole island sank into the sea."

"Yeah. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No, no, no, that's not such a funny thing to say. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well, then your family is also ......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know.　I don't know what happened to them. I honestly don't have any good memories of them, not to mention my father, my mother giving me the creeps, and my sisters picking on me. So I don't really care what happens to them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see. ......

　The actual "I'm not a fan of the way you look at it, but I'm not a fan of the way you look at it either.

I don't care about anyone except those who care about me. Will you take care of me?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was momentarily taken aback by Shiva's testing look, but I nodded vigorously and answered, "Yes, of course.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, of course. I will make you happy, so please stay by my side from now on.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I will definitely make you happy, so please stay by my side.

　At that moment, vermilion quickly flashed across Shiva-san's face.

　She then happily pulled herself closer to me, saying, "...... yeah, okay.

　As a side note, I was delayed for a long time after that due to a variety of reasons, and I was forced to sit upright by Magmel, but that's another story.
