They reminisced about the past and chatted for a while.

However, there was still much to handle outside, and Oliver had to attend to his duties.

As for Anthony, after giving the elixir to the girl in green, he slipped away to take care of his affairs. When he heard from the household that the princess consort had already been killed, he initially wanted to report to Doug that she was still alive. But recalling the girl’s earnest plea, he ultimately held his tongue.

However, he couldn’t keep secrets for long. Seizing a moment when no one was around, he quietly slipped into Isolde’s room.

“Are you feeling any better?” Anthony asked as he sat on the stool by the bed. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he reached down to wring the water from his clothes.

“I took the medicine, so I’m feeling better,” Isolde replied. Noticing the blood on his arm, she asked, “Have you treated your wound?”

“It’s nothing!” Anthony only now noticed the cut on his arm, recalling that he had taken a slash earlier. But since the wound wasn’t deep, he paid it no mind.

“How is it?” Isolde asked, looking at him with interest.

“What do you mean?” Anthony asked, a little puzzled.

“How did it feel to be in battle?” Isolde asked.

Thinking back to the fight, Anthony scoffed, “That was supposed to be a battle? It felt more like a street -brawl to me.”

He chuckled, revealing his white teeth.

“Of course, this was a battle. It was a dangerous one at that. Though, there are wars far more perilous than today’s,” Isolde said.

Anthony glanced at her. “Have you fought in many battles? How do you know so much?”

Isolde nodded. “Life itself is a battle. You’re either fighting others or fighting yourself.”

Anthony frowned. “Too complicated. I don’t get it.”
