The next day, we were set to leave immediately.

He's a handful of elites this time to hurry back to the outhouse. He only took a group of about fifty men and soldiers for guidance on the Salehardo side, the same as he had travelled to Mr. Ernest in Delphion.

Sometimes the army moves on from the Earl of Kilrea territory. I march south and I plan to enter Marquis Chestina territory as soon as we rendezvous, so I want you to act on that one first.

So we asked Alan and the others to start heading south with the Salehards, and we decided to rendezvous from the outhouse.

Soldiers keep moving, so I'm tempted to give them a break, but if possible by winter, I want them home, and they should want to, too.

And to keep our enemies from preparing for uselessness, we should attack quickly.

To a degree of haste, the wind had been getting cold lately.

So much so that I've had Mr. Emeline look at me in Delphion, too, and I'm starting to wear a jacket.

Now, the road to the outer palace is just for a day or so.

I can only camp once and arrive the next day. This camp is one of the reasons why we can't move our troops in the winter.

It snows quite a bit in the winter in Falgia. Better than Salehard in a snowy land like the North.

During such a camp, as usual, Mr. Cain was nearby for the night shift.

Of course, Mr. Cain takes turns with others, so he hasn't been awake long, and I'm worried about getting up early in bed because it lightens the burden on anyone who protects me if I wake up early.

Besides, it's the season when the wind is getting cold, because I'm also worried about Cain's health, who turns at night, even though he won't keep burning.

I just woke up early this day. I couldn't sleep afterwards, so the sky was brighter for once, and I tried to walk around where I was camping.

Then, at the suggestion of Cain, who was just then, he went up to build a tower of dirt higher than a tree.

The sun is invisible, but the sky is thin blue and bright. Underneath, hills and dotted forests were seen showing a sleek slope to the lake side.

As for the landscape, it's the same as Delphion's lakeside region, but I felt smudged that I had come a long way, considering that I had originally lived in the king's territory myself.

Though I don't even intend to go to my original house.

Because I don't have the hobbies to get close to where I only have sad memories.

"After Mr. Chiara goes down, it can be used by others to alert their surroundings. Leave it like this."

"Oh, I get it"

Looking at the distance, Mr. Cain said.

"We'll have to have it dismantled in the morning,"

Mr. Cain, who climbed up together, breathes heavily.

"What's wrong, I'm not feeling well..."

Mr. Cain is a pretty tough guy. All I could think about was whether I was tired or not feeling well sighing when someone like that was nothing.

"It's not like that."

Mr. Cain put his hand over my head, as he would to a child.

"I just feel like looking away from a high place makes me think smaller because of everything I can foresee.... I didn't think so back in the day."

Is there something bothering you?

Mr. Cain said he didn't know if it was okay to ask that out.

"I'm probably greedy. I don't want to lose everything. Like staring at a missing plate uncluttered forever.... So I didn't think I was going to walk out of there if I lost my family. While I was spending time with Chiara, I came to realize that I was thinking about it."

"But isn't it natural to be hurt? That's not a bad thing."

There's no one without a hard time losing their family. Events with time and other people you meet will just keep the spiciness away a little bit.

"Right...... now it seems that way. I guess I used to feel like that was a bad thing."

Mr. Cain looked back and smiled.

"I was as young as Chiara back then."

But Mr. Cain went on to say.

"Don't look around you mumbling. Some of it was only gained because you ran. Because I didn't question it, I was able to move on to refining my art of fighting. So... if you thought Chiara would have to do that now for someone else, you should run without thinking about who would feel it or what would happen later."

"Mr. Cain......?

"Because you know the future, you've run straight so far, but you haven't acted as well as you should."

"Really?

I thought I was letting myself do whatever I wanted, so I'd snap my neck. "If you don't know, that's fine," Cain said.

"You suddenly talked weird. Sometimes when I look at you and your Highnesses, there are moments when I want to say things like my brother."

And I went on.

"If you decide who you need to move forward, I won't say anything. It's just, all the time, it's my job to protect you. Don't forget that."

Okay, so Mr. Cain goes down first.

"Uh... Mr. Cain, you know how I feel?

I haven't told anyone. I know you've noticed if you're a well-guessed Reggie, but you're not approaching him with a grudge. I was going to make sure you didn't know that.

Then the master, who said nothing like a figurine, stumbled and crushed.

"I guess you felt something. Because disciples are not good at hiding anyway. Hihich."

"... haven't you been able to hide it?

"I'll do my best for you. If you think about it, you'll be with the prince, or you'll be leaking in subtle parts."

"That happened while I was unconscious..."

As bad as it was for my heart, I was surprised.

Later on, I told Gina that Reggie had also fallen asleep sitting beside her bedroom to lose consciousness. So when I woke up, it seemed like Reggie was only sleeping with me when I made a joke.

For that, there was no sign of Jina or any haste at all, and I can't solve the fact that she was accepting it as normal. When I asked him, he just nibbled and said, "Because I know Your Highness can't possibly get his hands on the murmur -"

When I was thinking back, my master followed me.

"In the first place, it's because you didn't grab the prince's sleeve or hands and let him go. I've seen him around. Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo."

"Ugh..."

Mr. Cain was on my side, so it's natural to watch. Then I guess that's the thing......

He thought the same thing, the master said.

"Didn't he get his mind sorted out, too? To the point of being somewhat calm about having a replacement, accomplishing revenge, and about you."

I hope so.

I want my mind organized, especially about family and revenge. Because I have always been worried and I don't want you to feel hard
