Calling For A Guard

"Oi, Oi! Where do you think you're going?"

"If you don't want to suffer, then give us all your money!"

…

Rem breathes in and out. She already had enough stress for one day, and she can't afford a sixth death today. She looks at them with a rather pissed off face, and she's clenching her fists.

"I had enough… of you guys… This is the fourth time..."

.

.

.

Rem keeps clenching her fist but she decides to take a deep breath and relax.

Rem's Thought's: "Maybe there's another way to handle this…"

.

.

.

She looks at them with calm eyes.

"I just wish it doesn't have to be this way…"

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Rem breathes in and she screams at the top of her lungs.

."

"W-what the! H-hey! Be quiet!

Rem: "H-help! Somebody help me!! I'm being touched by three creepy guys!~ They want to harass me! AH! Police! Anyone at all!! Help!!"

"O-Oi! Woman! Be quiet!"

"S-shit! Should we run??��

The thieves don't know what to do and Rem stops screaming looking at them.

Rem Thoughts: "If I heard right… There's police here, there's no way this world can live in some harmony without the law."

Rem continues to scream out for the police or any guards that could come but after doing it for 10 seconds, Rem looks around and she sees no one.

The thieves were relieved that she stooped.

"You had us there, not going to lie…"

"Just only a little"

"Really, it's just a little bit…!"

The skinny guy pulls out his knife, and Rem backs off a little.

?: "There's no point in escaping now!"

But Rem stands her ground until and gets ready to fight until…

"Alright, that's enough"

Rem and the thieves heard the voice as they looked to where it was, and they saw a person behind Rem.

"A knight with red hair… and a sword with dragon claws! C-could he be… Reinhard??"

"The Holy Swordsman, Reinhard??"

Said by the big guy.

Rem looks at the thieves and at this guy.

"The Holy Swordsman Reinhard...? I've never heard of that here, well I guess until now…"

Reinhard looks at them with a smile on his face.

"Well, it seems like I don't have to introduce myself."

He walks and stops by at Rem's side.

"However, that title is a little bit too much for me. Although I'm not sure how much I can help this lady here."

Rem looks at Reinhard.

"But if you guys decide to get violent, I can only stop you-

He looks at the thieves.

-by attacking you."

He slowly reaches for his sword, giving them all the chance to run while they can.

"A-are you kidding? T-this is not worth it! Run!"

The three thieves make a run for it, seeing them exit the alleyway and Rem is just quiet the whole time.

.

.

.

Reinhard puts his hands down as he looks at them.

"Luckily, both of us are fine."

Rem looks at this red haired guard.

Reinhard: "Are you injured?"

.

.

.

.

.

Rem looks happy as she bows to him.

"I-I'm fine! But I'm very grateful that you have saved me!"

She stands up to look at him.

"My name is Rem...ura… I'm really grateful that you have come and saved me, and in return I sincerely respect your honesty and righteousness!"

Reinhard looks at her and he smiles as he looks at the alley way.

"There's no need to be formal, If it's three against two, they don't have much chance to win either."

"If it's just me, I doubt it possible"

Rem looks at him and his appearance.

Rem's Thoughts:

"He wouldn't win a fight against three? Isn't he a knight?"

She holds her chin.

Rem's Thought's:

"Well I mean three against one is pretty much of a disadvantage not unless you know combat, so I guess in the first half he's right. He's also very friendly, I thought the guards are going to be as brutal as its citizens here.

She looks at Reinhard as he smiles at her, which makes her blush a little, why is she blushing to everyone lately?

Rem: "If that's so... "

She looks at him.

"Can I call you Sir Reinhard??"

Reinhard looks at her, with a smile.

"There's no need to address me as Sir, Rem."

Rem gave a friendly grin.

R.T(Rem's Thought's, Remember that.): "That was fast. He just called me by my actual name, does he know Remura is just my play name?"

Rem: "A-ah O-okay then, T-thank you once again for your help, Reinhard."

"You're the only one that showed up to rescue Rem after hearing her screams. I mean- My screams."

She rubs her head.

"That's really harsh considering no one else showed up…"

Reinhard: "Hm, well for most people going against them would be too risky, so it's right that you've called for the guards instead."

Rem looks at him.

"I'm afraid to ask, but is that what the guards here wear? In my mind you don't look like one to me…"

Reinhard: "Ah no, I'm not on duty today, so i'm not wearing the uniform. I understand I don't look tough or strong as well."

Rem: "Oh I see…"

Rem looks at his sword.

Rem: "Oh! Uhm also, I heard those three guys calling you a Holy Swordsman?"

.

Reinhard: "I came from a unique family. People often put high hopes on me, which stressed me out."

Rem looks at him and to the side.

R.T: "That must be hard for a guard and one who came from a family of… well I guess nobility?"

Reinhard looks at Rem.

"Ah right, Rem."

!

"Y-yes?"

Reinhard looks at her.

"Your haircut and outfit are unique, as well as your personality, well for me of course

. I hope you don't mind me asking, but which country are you from?"

Rem rubs her chin, trying to think of something as Reinhard continues.

"Recently, Lugnica is getting less peaceful compared to the past.

If you don't mind at all, you're free to let me know if you need any help."

!

Rem: "R-really? If that's so- Then, can you accompany me to a loot warehouse??"

Reinhard: "Loot warehouse?"

Rem gets a flashback of the horrible things that happened, and since Reinhard said it himself that he would lose a fight against the three thieves if he was by himself, he would definitely

not have a chance against Elsa.

Rem: "U-Uhm, Actually! N-Nevermind. Please ignore what I said… I shouldn't really drag anyone into any of my problems…"

She looks at them.

"Looks like I have to settle it on my own"

She starts walking.

"I'll see you soon, Reinhard!"

… She then stops walking.

"Although… it would be nice if you can help me relay a message to some people."

Reinhard looks at her.

"I'll be glad to do so."

"To whom would you like to relay the message?"

.

.

.

.

.

Rem: "I don't know the other person's name, but I know she has a butler named Subaru. He's a young man with black hair with a butler outfit, and the one I don't know the name of has silver hair and she's wearing a white robe… Have you seen anyone with that kind of clothing lately?"

Reinhard thinks…

Rem turns to him.

"O-oh and also! They're very cute when they're together!"

Reinhard: "Hm… No. I haven't seen anyone with that information you just said."

Rem: "W-well if you see them, please tell the both of them not to go near the loot warehouse no matter what, if they try to do anything to get there, please try and convince them. I-I don't-

Rem remembers something again…

-n-nevermind, but please tell them not to go near the location I said. I want to return something to her, and I want to return it to her in person."

Reinhard nods.

"I got it. If I see them, I'll let them know."

Rem smiles as she blushes but she hides it.

"Thank you.."

She turns around and walks at the exit, but looks at Reinhard one last time.

"I'll be sure to pay you back soon!"

She continues to walk,

Reinhard: "Alright. Take care."
