I want to protect you in this hand.

Arsh, 16, 9 months. That's what you are. (Will perspective)

"I thought it was three years from now."

Alec snapped as he looked at the large rock in the narrow room, slightly shredded.

"Me too. By then, we'd all be done going around Findaria, and Arsh was opening an inn somewhere in Findaria, and I was the pawn owner."

Cyril also crushes looking at the rocks.

"He's a solid wife, but his husband's flustered and he's in town rumors."

"You're supposed to be flunky, you're 20. You're just a bastard."

That's how I got into it. but Cyril listens.

"It's about Arsh, so I'm sure he'll blend in with that town, just as he blended in quickly in this town. So I thought I'd start there with peace of mind."

'Cause you're an unsolicited one.

I point it out relentlessly. Cyril looked at me with the face that he was out of his mind.

"If I were really on my own, I wouldn't let Ash do the lodging."

"You..."

"I won't let you work for the other one. Take me anywhere. In the ocean."

"No way."

"We're gonna line up together and hit the sea breeze. Sometimes we take turns watching and sharing the ordeal together. And even if it was in a storm."

I guess what Cyril's ice-blue eyes were looking at was horrible, Alec pinching his mouth.

"I'm fine. The sea on this continent is rarely rough. You just have to stay in the harbor when there's a storm."

But the word floated in the universe.

"Until the end, we're together"

As if Alec's words had not been heard, Cyril's words fell on the evening meadow.

Dkah. Cyril broke his body.

"Ugh, Will, what?"

"Don't say anything. Don't dream on your own. Don't talk about the future on your own. Whatever you did, I only found out that you'd end up annoying Arsh."

I hit Cyril in the stomach. I held my hand in front of his face again.

"Stay or leave, I end up worrying about Arsh. Then work for Kilik and the Empire."

"I only work for my dreams. If that's gonna do you good, that's fine."

"It's a discretionary one. But that's fine."

I was finally able to relieve my expression. No matter how much time I spent with everyone, this guy ended up alone in my mind. But that's fine.

"You're the lone wolf in the lamb."

To Alec like that,

"You're not even sheep anymore."

and Dan went in. Maybe he was just wearing sheep's skin for sure. But look at us.

Even though I know I don't have to do my father's trick anymore, I can't cut my hair somehow. My hair is on the meadow, highlighting the big body I worked out with my sword. Standing still, Cyril is slender and supple, combining short, mowed silver hair with unafraid air. Dan, with a soft grin, keeps his shirt properly buttoned with his vest and shows the calm of a young but merchant when he says it's a borderline town.

The lamb I was stopping by in Merrill, it's gone.

But that doesn't mean goodbye. exhaust each power, at each place. I guess so, Arsh.

"Then Cyril, will you go?"

"Of course you are, Alec. The ship is already made. There's one sailor."

"Let's get one person familiar with the ocean here"

When he replied that way to Alec's words, Cyril put it in his mouth like this.

"One more, I'm taking Kenan"

"Kenan? That knight boy? Why."

It's so active, but it doesn't stand out because I don't have much to say. I felt sorry for Kenan when he told me you were a boy.

"He's the three men of the lord of Maris. Maris has a larger fishing port. We'll all connect there."

"Nevertheless, are you prepared to go that far in person"

"I guess not."

Cyril said so lightly.

"There won't be, Cyril..."

"Only the Marquis Cosal seems to be able to use it with the Findarian guys. And then I can't even think and move myself. It's a peaceful country. He's at least somewhat good in it, he wants to move, and if you tell him, he'll grow up, that's Kenan."

I see.

"It also helps to be the Marquis' third son. Take him before he makes his decision."

You're a beast.

"Cyril, open the route with Knoll first, anyway. If, as you told me, I used to be able to go in a week, your new shipbuilding would have allowed me to go, at least for the same period of time, I suppose. It's dangerous."

I thought you said there was no storm earlier.

"Of course, I would recommend a proper sailor. If I had been proper, I wouldn't have said no to such a dangerous ship."

Alec said that ironically.

"But by the time this winter comes, I want to keep the grain moving a little bit. Once we get through the route to Knoll, we're going to put ourselves in a position by land to send a little supplies from the northern harbour."

"Can't you not use Cyril and do it from the beginning? From the Knoll side, it looks like we'll be in the North in a day."

That should have been the case when Cyril went out with Knoll's fishermen.

"You can't just take a day to get your stuff to a small fishing village and get it to a stranger. I don't have a ship I can carry. Once Cyril proves he can go, move the ship from Shrem to the North Territories. And I can only move a small ship. Only a Cyril ship and a regular ship to Merida can carry a lot of things, equipped with storage bags. Besides, regular ships to Merida are too big to get in the knoll."

Alec sighed.

"So far, Cyril's new shipbuilding, built assuming we're going to Knoll, will be the most useful."

Cyril said arm in arm.

"It's the way I was about to go sooner or later. From Shrem to Knoll. Meet Will."

"I see."

I was a little lit up. I won't have a choice.

"But to Arsh,"

Alec says in a weak way. Instead of the Emperor, who must settle down in the Imperial capital, there is an Imperial Brother who is moving as a real work force. I can't help it, it saved my body and heart, because it's like a little sister.

"I'll talk to you later"

That's what Cyril said.

"Later you."

"After I went to Maris."

"No, you're going to do it right after that. How does Arsh feel when he's critical"

"He'll understand."

"You..."

That's how you forgot to make me cry. I won't forget. Dan opened his mouth before I tried to say it.

"Cyril"

"What?

Cyril saw Dan in a long way.

"I'll stay in Findaria."

"Dan, you, you want to bite the Empire's logistics"

Alec said as surprised.

"I was going to make it a special treatment."

"Thank you for that. But in this crisis, I will lay the foundations for Findaria."

"Right."

Dan saw Cyril again.

"You, you're too relieved for Arsh. You're always trying to keep me away from you by holding me around, and I'll throw you away in no time at all at this time. Stay unprotected."

Cyril got stuck a lot. I have an excuse. For Kilik, for Will, Mal and Sarah.

"But I really want to, so you're done with it."

You're right, so I can't say anything.

"That's why you run out of words. Not in front of the building, for real. That's what Arsh will understand in a word of 'cause I want to'. If you're going to spare me even that."

Dan stared straight at Cyril.

"Remember, whoever refrains after you, there is as much. At least I'm on Arsh's side in Findaria the whole time."

"... ok"

Can Cyril tell Ash? Dan is right. But I'm scared. Right, Cyril?

Already in the meadows, the sun was about to fall.
