I disagree, Phee was stunned when they said that.

'Cause I didn't think Crowe would tell me that. He also supported me during the enlistment exam and even after I became an apprentice knight, he taught me a lot of things to support me. You've always been there for me.

I didn't think the day would come when you'd tell Crowe to stop being a knight like that.

"Nah...... why?! Mr. Crowe!"

I don't know why they say that, no, I know why, but I don't want to admit it, and Fee told Crowe.

I asked why.

"Nothing, nothing! Knights aren't what women do!

Crowe returned the same strong tone to Phee's voice, which had become hysterical on the way.

"Oh, I hope the woman did it! I want the identity of this country! Are you telling me that's not a woman?!

"Hey, calm down, both of you."

Conrad enters arbitration.

But neither Crowe nor Fee stopped.

"If you want an identity, even a samurai can do it! We can vouch for your identity! If you work for it, you'll get your nationality. You don't have to go out of your way to do a dangerous job with a knight!

"It's out after that! I had to be a knight!

"Right. I apologize for that. But from now on, you don't have to be a knight! I'll guarantee my identity and recommend it to the maid. Either you work at the royal palace or at my parents'. I'll do something about it. If I work for a certain period of time, I'll be certified as a full citizen. That would be enough. Stop being a knight."

Phee's words stop.

I was too shocked that Crowe told me to stop knighting again than to consider the pros and cons of the conditions offered to Crowe.

Fee wept. I became emotional.

"Yes, I don't...!

"Heath!"

"Crowe, first you have to respect your will."

"They almost killed me! If you keep knighting again, you might see the same eyes! You could die this time!

"That should be the same for a man!

Fee and Crowe tease each other.

Conrad enters the arbitration a little bit, but it doesn't work at all for both of us.

We're both special to each other. If Phee had also been told by non-Crowe humans, he might have tried to reason and calmly argue. But not with Crowe opponents.

Crowe, as Phee pointed out emotionally, had the same reason that Phee was a man and a woman. Maybe it was a shock that Fee was dying in the first place.

Still, if I were a man, I might have suppressed that sentiment as the role of a knight. But the fact that Fee's gender was a woman allowed her to escape from it, and that emotion erupted.

As a result, Fee became mean.

"I don't... I won't stop. Never, I won't stop knighting......!

Staring at the crow with tears, Phee clearly declares.

The 18th Knights and the northern quarters, that was a lot of bonding that Phee had gotten in her life since she was finally born. I couldn't think of letting that go and starting working elsewhere anew. I felt like letting go of that bond with Crowe, too.

"I want to, I can keep knighting, right!

Phee looks up to Ior and asks so.

Ior answered with a rarely bewildered voice.

"I don't think you mind about that..."

"Well, that's not a problem"

"No, I heard your will once again, and if you want to stop being a knight, I thought I'd offer you another way..."

"I don't want to stop! Are you trying to make me stop being a knight to the captain?

"No, it's not. In that case, we should ask you again."

"Then you don't mind! I will continue my apprenticeship knight!

Fee agreed to continue knighting to Ior's words in a taste of eating.

Everyone but Phee and Crowe sighs that we're no longer in an atmosphere of discussion.

"Anyway, I disagree."

Crowe abandoned himself and left the hospital room.

In the bed, Phee is shuddering as she drops off her back.

Ior said with his forehead down.

"Let's put some more time aside before we discuss it. Heath, it's true it's a dangerous job. You shouldn't make emotional decisions."

"It doesn't change my answer!

Fee meditated his eyes on Ior and shouted as much as he wanted.
