Changing of the Guard

Changing of the Guard is a weapon in SINoALICE.

Weapon Story
Once upon a time, there was a guard who defended a lord's castle. He was extremely good at his job, and the lord counted himself lucky to have him. However, the guard's real purpose was not to protect the lord, but to kill him.

The guard's daughter had been executed by the lord on false charges. Revenge was his only reason for living.

Day after day, the guard would see his chance to swoop in and kill the lord. But he would always pull back when he was just a single step away. Still, he didn't give up. "Next time," he would silently swear to himself.

The lord had fallen ill, and the guard sat by the bedside, gripping his hand. Thirty years had gone by, and the guard had not been able to kill the lord. At the moment of his death, the lord thanked the guard and closed his eyes. Then the guard finally realized: his lust for revenge had been keeping him alive.
