I Screwed the Novel's Plot

Damian remained planted on the ground even after Leticia's silhouette was out of view; he was still stunned somehow.

'That girl…'

Unbeknownst to him, he touched his cheek. His face and ears had turned red matching a tomato.

It was the first time in his life an opposite gender aside from his mother ever landed him a kiss!

She was quite daring in his opinion. Not only that but she was also crazy!

Damian's thoughts drifted to how the girl would grow a few years later.

He just hoped that she would have a change in her demeanor.

Because if not, it would be a disaster–for him, of course.

With that, he turned and entered the room. However, upon stepping inside, a black-haired boy with an annoying grin came into view.

Alexander was in such a weird mood.

Even just by looking at him, Damian knew what was inside that bastard's head, and the moment the boy was ready to open his mouth, he cut in whilst approaching him.

"Listen, I have a very important thing to say."

Alexander's smiley face turned serious.

"What is it?"

Damian put on a complicated expression like shouldering on how to save the whole world from destruction.

Seeing his brother remain silent, Alexander asked once more.

"What is it?"

"Uh, do you have cookies?"

"..."

Alexander's air turned sour, honestly speaking, Damian wanted to laugh so badly but he managed to stay cool and added.

"I was starving down there!"

Alexander took out a bag of cookies and gave it to him.

"Hehe, thanks."

He tried to open his mouth but Damian quickly jumped in once again.

"Look, we don't have much time! Let's go."

Damian spoke impatiently and shoved a cookie into his mouth.

Upon seeing it, the black-haired boy's brows furrowed.

"What is wrong with you?"

"Let's go. Let's go."

He looked at Damian as if he was a strange creature and shook his head, then activated the Supreme Blink Sphere.

Damian couldn't help but laugh internally, he was so happy that he could prevent Alexander from spewing nonsense.

Shortly, the floor shone and in a flash, they were teleported to the Marquis Gilmore mansion.

They exited the room and the guards were flabbergasted when saw the duo. Of course, that was because they came without notice.

"I–I greet Your–"

Ignoring them, they immediately ran toward the entrance.

"Your Highness!"

Soon, they arrived at the gate entrance, and Alexander ordered the gatekeeper to open the gate.

At first, they refused and said that they couldn't open the gate without the Marquis' order.

But everything was solved without hassle after Alexander sold out the Emperor's name, and they eventually opened it.

"Boss!! Over here!!"

A man with dark gray hair could be seen waving to them.

"'Boss', huh?"

Damian turned to Alexander and the black-haired boy clucked his tongue in annoyance.

"I hired him, of course, he called me 'Boss'. Basically, I pay him."

"I see."

Damian gave a short reply and shrugged.

There was no need for a deep conversation as he knew exactly that Alexander was lying; he knew Alexander owned a Mercenary Agency.

They mounted the horse and Alexander asked the man while riding.

"How many people are available?"

"There's only 38 of them."

"It's all right. How about the supply?"

"I bring a week's worth."

"Good."

Right after we got out of the city, dozens of mercenaries riding horses followed us.

Upon seeing them, Damian quicken his speed and stopped next to Alexander, then he asked.

"Are those your men?"

"Yep."

Alexander nodded his head and Damian's blue eyes swept the surroundings. Even by seeing their appearance, he could tell that they were not ordinary mercenaries.

Damian returned his eyes to Alexander.

This boy established a Mercenary Agency at such a young age, just… what was he trying to accomplish?

'I'll order Fedel to assign someone to investigate his Mercenary. This main character is kinda fishy in my eyes.'

.

A carriage was protected by cavaliers who wore heavy armor on both sides and could be seen existed a forest area.

The dense pine trees were changed into a vast meadow as they entered the Sverre Plains.

Colorful wildflowers that bloomed beautifully garnished the grassland.

A woman with peach hair and pink eyes lay against the carriage window frame. She was the Princess of the Yovanny Kingdom.

She moved her sight to a maid who sat across from her and ask.

"How many days are left to reach the Capital?"

"It's 2 days more, Your Highness."

"I see."

She returned to see what was outside the window and–

–Splash!

Her eyes stretched wide; she was stunned when the blood splattered on her window.

"Neeeiighh!!"

"Aarrghhh!!"

The Princess immediately got herself away from the window.

"W–what is happening?!"

The shrieks of horses and wails of men pierced their ears. Soon, the carriage abruptly stopped and the Princess was thrown to the couch across from her.

"Kyaaa!!"

The carriage door swung open and Duke Gustav came into view.

"We're under attack. No matter what. Please, never left the carriage."

After conveying these words, the Duke closed the door and 3 lines of soldiers circled the carriage.

They placed their shield in front of their body to prevent any attacks from penetrating the carriage.

Soon the second tide of arrows rained down at them. The Knights vigorously swung their swords left and right to deflect the arrows.

–Bang! –Bang! –Bang!

"Who dares to ambush us?"

Duke Gustav waved his sword and block an arrow that darted at him.

–Bang!

"I had no idea."

The knight next to him responded whilst diverting every attack that approach him.

–Bang! –Bang! –Bang!

After the attack died down. His eyes immediately scanned the surroundings but to no avail as the weeds were too tall for him to spot the enemies.

Quietness descended and enveloped them; the Knights promptly stood on guard.

As the lull continued to drag on, anxiety started to fill the Knights heart.

Only.

"Kkiieeekkk!!!"

"Huuuaaa!!"

All heads turned to the voice at the rear and a strange creature was present. Half of its body had a monster appearance and the other half was a kid's body

"Aarrgghh!! Aarrghh!!"

The monster's ferocious hand was seen scratching the knight's face.

The wailing stopped as the man turned motionless, blood oozed out from his destroyed face and drenched the soil.

The monster turned and their eyes widened as they watched the sight.

Black veins filled the kid's skin, his sclera turned black and his irises were red.

"Wh–what in the world… is it…?"

"Kkiiieeekkk!!"

The Chimera jumped and struck a knight. He planned his sharp claws and slashed the man's face. Blood splattered everywhere as his attack continued.

"Aaarrgghh!!"

Soon, a knight dashed to them and wasting no more time he cut the creature's head.

Black blood gushed out from its neck and the Chimera plummeted to the ground.

"Treated him immediately!"

He ordered and two knights hastily brought the man's body to the side.

As they were too immersed in seeing the victim, unbeknownst to them the Chimera had got on his feet and jumped to the man who chopped his head.

"Aarrghhh!!"

Their eyes turned to the voice and were stunned to their spines upon witnessing the scene present before us.

The headless monster was now pulling the man's left arm and–

–Splatt!!

"Aarrgghhh!!"

Blood splashed the ground when the arm separated from the man's body.

"Th–the monster still alive!!"

The knights were beyond shocked. Although its head had been severed, the monster was somehow still alive.

The Chimera threw the arm sideways and crawl elsewhere.

"The monster can't see! This is our chance!"

The knights rushed in and waved their swords toward the Chimera.

"Kkiieekkk!!"

The monster shrieked upon receiving the blow and he went wild. He swung his claws left and right.

"Kiieekk!!"

One by one its limbs were cut off and after an intense fight, luckily someone managed to stab its crystallized heart, and the Chimera stopped moving.

"Haa… haa…"

The knights were panting and some were wiping their sweat.

However, just as they thought that everything ended, reality hit them hard.

"Kiieekkk!!"

"Kkkieekk!!"

"Kkiieekk!!"

Dozens of Chimera jumped and surrounded them.

"Th–there are so many of them!!"

"Hhuuuaaa!!"

Even just defeating one of them took half an hour, let alone dozen of them. Terror crept in and their morale decreased.

"C–can we even defeat all of them?"

–Stab!

"Kkiiekk!!"

And just like a drop of water in a desert, suddenly the monster plummeted to the ground with an arrow penetrated through its heart.

–Stab! –Stab! –Stab!

"Kiieekkk!!"

And one after another slumped down.

"What is happening?"

The Knights moved to where the arrow came and several people on horseback were seen approaching them.

However, that wasn't their main focus, but a young boy with white hair riding a horse with a bow in his hands in the forefront.

He was seen aiming from the bow's window sight and soon released the fletching.

The arrow flew and pierced the Chimera's heart.

"Kkiieekkk!!

And what followed was the monster dropped dead to the floor.

"I–it's His Highness, Prince Damian!"
