Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Capturing Kaarle

After the two finished their breakfast, they went together to find Bertram. On the way, they encountered Arthur. Upon learning Sophie had rescued Felix, Arthur was happy for her.

“Ms. Tanner, since you’ve saved the man you were looking for, you should return quickly. Fandar is really dangerous now.” Arthur knew Sophie was capable, but she was still a girl no matter what, so she shouldn’t experience those things.

“Mr. Camidge, you helped me, so I must get rid of Kaarle, Otherwise, you won’t have a peaceful life in the future.” Sophie wasn’t going to leave them with that trouble.

“Ms. Tanner, you don’t need to do these things for us. We have lived on this land for our entire lives, so we naturally have our own ways to survive. Even if Kaarle is gone, there will be others like him, isn’t it? Ultimately, we still have to rely on ourselves, so she doesn’t have to go to such lengths for us.

“Mr. Camidge, you don’t need to say more. I’m not doing this entirely for you. Kaarle harmed our man, too, so we have to avenge him.” She didn’t want Arthur to bear the heavy psychological burden.

“Ms. Tanner…” Arthur knew she was actually doing that for them.

“We can never repay your great kindness in this lifetime.” Tears streamed down Arthur’s face. Many people thought poorly of Fandar, but it was still their home, after all.

They cherished everything there.

“Mr. Camidge, don’t worry. In the future, the social order here will gradually improve. As long as there’s someone capable to maintain control, this place will get better.”

“Okay, Ms. Tanner. Please be careful.”“ Arthur watched them leave.

Along the way, discomfort churned within Sophie as she took in the living condition of the people there.

“It will get better, Tristan said. He decided they should maintain the order there since that was indeed a very profitable place anyway.

They could make money and provide a relatively good living environment for the locals. That was the only thing they could do.
