Chapter 50
Previously, Ian had given it to her because she seemed very fond of it. However, he cautioned her not to use it since it could hurt her neck.
“It’s mine, but I’m lending it to you so you don’t get hurt.”
And here she was pushing it towards him, blatantly claiming it to be hers. But her tone was full of concern.
Ian was stunned, noticing the sudden hardening of her face.
After a few minutes, a knight knocked on the door and walked inside.
“Please confirm the necessary supplies, Captain.”
Laritte let the knight in before she walked out of the room.
She didn’t want to disturb Ian when he was busy.
She gave up her precious helmet and gave up her wish.
“I’ll be back later. Please excuse me.”
She turned around without a second thought while the helmet stayed still in Ian’s hand.
“Captain?”
The knight held out a document of supplies, but Ian paid no attention.
He could only hear a cracking sound from the helmet he was holding. Not long after, a tendon sprang up in his hand.
“C-Captain?”
“……What is wrong with me?”
He sighed heavily.
He needed a quick talk with her.
***The squadron was set up quickly. All from the Knighthood of Reinhardt. Enough for the troop.
But with about two-fifth of knights leaving, the mansion would be quite deserted.
After Ian was cleared of the false charge, it was taking quite a long time for the other knights to return.
“A few knights are left behind, but they’ll have no problem in protecting the mansion.”
Ian said to Laritte.
The mansion was situated atop a hill.
The knights leaving with Ian used to ramble on to Laritte. Now, however, the knights who would be with her were elite.
