Yes father, no problem.
Okay, I'll intervene in Egelea with a substitute doll.
Yes, sir, I'm on my way.

Now that the battlefield in Tetrada has been settled, Jin decided to intervene in Asunto, the capital of the Kingdom of Egelea.
Considering the distance from Horai Island, Raptors 6 to 10 and Falcons 6 to 10 should have already arrived.
Jin projected on the magic screen the image from the substitute doll on Raptor 10.

It was Laila who cast the Storm Rush. The enemy golem was right in front of her, and she cast it madly in an attempt to block it.
It was an advanced wind magic, and had the power to make the golem retreat to the end of the corridor. In the aftermath, his allies were also hit, but it was nothing to worry about.
"Ha, ha ......"

"You did it, Lila! You can do it!"
"My sister ......"
Laila's cheeks flushed slightly at the praise of her talented sister.

"Come on, Your Majesty, Your Highness, Your Highness, get downstairs while you still can!"
Not wanting to waste the time Laila had earned, the Kingsguard led the way, followed by the King, Queen, Prince, the golem Lotte, and Laila, with Laila's sister Iris taking the lead.
Unfortunately, there was no time to care for the knights who had been defeated by the enemy golem.

When they managed to get down to the first floor hall, they found many wounded soldiers.
"Golem from here too?
Where did they come from? Ten of the same type as the golem that had attacked us from the rooftop were on the rampage.

"Your Majesty!"
The one who raised a voice that almost screamed was the Minister of Magic, Kelihidole. Around him was a pile of the wreckage of the Kingsguard Golem Squad.
"You have no idea how strong they are! They are comparable to Leco at the Golem Party!"

"What?"
Don't tell me that Jin is behind this?
It was Defense Minister Jude said.

"No, sir."
The maid golem immediately denied it.
"Lotte?"

"Your father would never have made such a clumsy and unattractive golem. That's the Golem of the Unification Party (Unifiler) that caused a commotion last time."
Lotte assures him.
"For the sake of your father's honor."

Lotte says, and throws the tray in her hand at the golem that came toward Prince Ernest and the others.
It was a steel tray made by Jin.
The tray made a deafening sound, and the golem's chest was smashed into the enemy golem's chest. The golem's magi-device is destroyed and it stops working.

Lotte hurriedly retrieved the tray, and caught the fist of the other golem with the tray.
This time, the tray shatters with a high-pitched sound. But the enemy golem's fist also shatters.
"Your father gave me the tray! How dare you!"

Lotte now has a steel mop in her hand, which she had been carrying on her back.
The mop has a large, heavy tip and can be used as a mace-like weapon.
The mop that Lotte hits with crushes the head of the enemy golem.

The eyes of the head are responsible for the advanced golem's vision. In other words, by destroying the head, the vision can be taken away.
Although the head was not destroyed, the distorted head provided only inadequate visual information.
With the next blow, Lotte destroys the chest of the enemy golem. This silences two of them. Eight remain.

"Lotte! Enough! I understand! You protect His Majesty and His Highness!"
Even Minister of Defense JUDOL had to admit that if Lotte were to be destroyed now our strength would be greatly reduced. That is why he decided that we cannot afford to lose Lotte as a royal protector.
Lotte drops back under his command, just in the nick of time.

"Your Highness! Look out!"
The magic firebullets aimed at Prince Ernest were flying. There were about 50 of them.
Lotte notices this and swings her mop to knock them down. However, the mop, which is a blow weapon, is not enough to drop the 50 firebullets.

About half of the firebullets hit Prince Ernest.
"Your Highness!"
Someone screamed. Prince Ernest closed his eyes with his head in his hands, expecting to be hit by a bullet.

But the impact does not come for a long time. Fearfully, Prince Ernest opened his eyes.
What did he see?
What he saw were two pitch-black golems standing there as if protecting Prince Ernest.

They were the covert SPs, <
"Who are you guys?"
Prince Ernest asked unintentionally, and the pitch-black golem opened its mouth,

"We are the ones who protect His Highness in the shadows.
With these words, he and Lotte stand around Prince Ernest and the royal family.
Although I do not know who they belong to, and I still have my doubts, I am glad to see their increased strength. Just when I was thinking that...

"Kyaaaah!"
Iris, who was guarding the stairs, is blown away.
Three golems came down from the top of the stairs.

That brings the total number of golems targeting the royal family to 11.
"......"
Defense Minister Jude felt a chill run down his spine.

Iri, the knight of the Kingsguard, is drained of her magic and though she seems to be alive, she is wounded and out of action. His sister Laila is still a novice.
The captain of the Kingsguard, Kerry, is outside in command to prevent an attack from the mysterious flying ball, and here is the vice-captain, Bruno, and three of his men.
The magic minister, Kerichdole, is capable in magical warfare, but not so good in hand-to-hand combat.

And as for myself, my right arm, which I broke during the Golem party, has not healed yet, and I cannot wield a sword properly.
"If push comes to shove, I'll have to give up my life, huh?"
JUDEOR was about to make up his mind when he heard the following words.

"What?
Once again, 10 new golems appeared.
They were golems unlike any other golems he had ever seen. Almost completely humanoid, silver-brown. It holds a sword in its hand.

"Ever. ......"
JUDOR prepared to take out at least one, and preferably two, of the golems, and reached for the shortsword at his waist. But...
Ten golems appeared, swords drawn in their hands, and they confronted the eleven golems in front of them.

"Are they on our side?"
The swords wielded by the silver-brown golems were so sharp that they easily cut off the spears held by the two enemy golems.
"Oh?"

"What a ......"
No matter how sharp a sword is, it takes a certain amount of power to cut through metal.
However, in front of my eyes, the body of an enemy golem is being sliced apart as if it were a knife slicing through a piece of fruit.

The enemy golem tries to avoid them in a hurry, but the silver-brown golems are much quicker.
With their momentum, they cut off the arms, legs, and torso of the enemy Golem, silencing eleven enemy Golems in the blink of an eye.
"My God, my God. ......"

The king is also astonished.
"Juddle, Kelihidole. Did you arrange this golem?
There was no way I could answer the king's question.

"No, sir. I don't know where they belong.
I could only answer, "No, sir, I don't know where they belong.
However, although he did not say it out loud, Prince Ernest had an intuition as to who had created the silver-brown golem.

And Lotte sensed its magic pattern,
（Thank you, Father.)
She was inwardly grateful to Jin, the creator of the golem.

Once the golem was gone, all that remained was the flying ball.
Everyone there looked up at the sky. Then, the flying ball was slowly descending.
There were two people on the descending cage, and they appeared to be in a hurry.

"They are coming down, but they seem to be in a hurry.
The magic minister, Kerichdole, mutters as she stares into the eyes.
And then all five spheres fell into Asund Castle.

The ten silver-brown golems that caught them were the same ten silver-brown golems that had defeated the enemy golems. This brings the total number of golems to 20.
"What ...... are they doing in the castle?"
Minister of Defense Jude was worried.

He could not believe that the supposedly iron-clad Asunto Castle could be so easily penetrated by these mysterious golems. Even if they were our allies.
And then the astonishment intensifies.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, what is that?

A golem, even larger than the 10-meter-high walls, had appeared and was peering into the castle.
