“Who?” Irene frowned. Neither she nor any of the employees had seen him recently.

“He was there.”

“What? Madam, are you feeling sick? I heard that people recover their energy for a while before they die. No! No way!” Laritte had to calm her down again.

“Madam! You’re all right!” The knight opened the window with both hands. Holding back her cough and covering her mouth, Laritte stepped back.

“It seems I am fine now, but don’t come near me. I don’t even know if I am completely healed. But do you know where Ian is?”

“Captain? Has he returned from the Capital? If he were here, we wouldn’t have missed him……”
