The fever remained until morning, perhaps because of the accumulated fatigue from traveling. Ruel led his heavy body into the carriage feeling dizzy.

"Uhmmm."

Ganien, who was waiting in the carriage first, coughed dryly and looked at Ruel's countenance. He must have been quite sorry to hear from Aris that Ruel had caught a fever because of him.

"Yesterday..."

"Is it going well?"

Ruel asked casually, inhaling the Breath.

He had requested Bianne to compile the information of knights involved with Red Ash and hand over the info to Ganien.

The more Red Ash they caught and the more information obtained, the more secure his safety was.

"It's in progress."

"Let me know when you get the results."

Ruel glanced at Cassion at the door.

The wind blew into the carriage causing his body to tremble.

"Wait a minute." (Ruel)

Ganien stopped at the doorway.

"Don't think about useless things, just take care of it properly."

Only then did Ganien's face brighten but with a sour voice.

"Do not worry. It's something I learned very well in Leponia."

"Yes."

The door of the carriage closed with Ruel's answer.

Ganien took a deep breath and moved towards the Knights with a determined face.

The Red Ash touched his country and was aiming for his friend.

He stood in front of the pre-assembled group of Blue Knights and shouted.

"The honor of this nation depends on our sword. Do not allow any enemy. Do not allow the word 'danger.' Recognize who we are protecting."

After taking a breath, Ganien opened his mouth again.

"Protect it."

"I'll protect!"

The entire Knights answered at the same time.

The Knights marched in a blue wave, led by Ganien.

Joining the Royal Knights, they escorted the moving carriage.

"Would you like another fever reducer?"

Ruel shook his head left and right when he saw the medicine Cassion was holding out.

"I ate it earlier."

"I'm asking because your fever didn't go away."

Ruel shook his head again.

Guiltily, Leo looked at Ruel.

He had thrown three snowballs at Ruel.

—This body feels sorry.

Instead of talking, Ruel stroked Leo's head.

He found it funny that his body became so hot after being hit by snow, but what was wrong with the opponent who threw it?

With a slightly trembling hand, Ruel inhaled the Breath.

"One more day, we'll see Dotol Village. If you change your mind and want to go to Trien..."
