“late.”
Abel, who was leaning against a large tree, hit Lauren. It was unfair for Lauren, who ran as fast as she could, but she had only been like this once or twice.
“sorry.”
After I finished apologizing, I became curious about the reason why I called.
“Then why did you call me?”
The surroundings are too empty to say that he called because he had an enemy. No, in the first place, is there anyone who can be called an enemy to Abel?@@@@
“A cute fox ran away.”
“Then can’t you just catch it?”
Abel was also skilled in hunting.
“He escaped pretty well.”
At that point, Lauren felt strange.
“That fox, it’s an animal, right?”
Abel raised the corners of his mouth at that question. It seems that the fox Abel was talking about was not a real fox. she is a person But is there someone in these mountains that Abel can pursue?
“You remember Maia’s brother.”
“You must call me Her Highness.”
“That’s it. remember?”
“I remember. “Because I have a lot of resemblance to Her Majesty the Empress.”
It seemed unusual for the small thing to have venom in its eyes. Lauren guessed that Maia’s younger sister, Richt, would grow up to be just as good as her older sister, and she was right.
‘Notoriety was all it took.’
He is that older sister and that younger brother.
“He’s here now.”
“yes?”
Why is he here? Shouldn’t the Crown Prince be on edge in the capital by now?
“Aren’t you seeing it wrong?”
“I?”
Abel’s words were filled with confidence. Yes, my lord. You have a good head too. If Abel was sure it was Licht, the probability that it was someone else goes down infinitely. So what does your lord plan to do with that person?
“Find it first. “It seems like you’re quite clever at running away.”
Let’s think about it. Richt is a great nobleman who grew up in the capital. There was no way he could ever remember running away in his life. Besides, he is a person who does not enjoy hunting. Lauren thought she would be able to find Licht easily by then.
‘Well, if it doesn’t work out, there are spirits.’
The wind spirit is especially useful for finding prey. Therefore, Loren confidently set out with his knights to find Licht.
Richt stood leaning against a tree with a pale face.
‘I feel like I’m going to die.’
I traveled too much distance with poor physical strength. I wanted to sit down and rest right away. But what if Abel catches you? Go to the afterlife and rest forever.
‘You need to move more.’
As I dragged my trembling legs, I saw a small cave in the distance. The entrance is big enough for a person to barely get in if they bend down. I looked into it to see if it was a oyster used by wild animals, but it didn’t seem to be the case.
‘thank god.’
I need to rest here for a while. As soon as Richt went inside, he lay down on the floor. He was breathing hard, his chest rising and falling. After resting like that, I gained the strength to sit down. In addition, his head, which had been stiff all along, began to move more easily.
“evil!”
I screamed at a thought that suddenly occurred to me, but then covered my mouth.
“Damn it.”
I had forgotten about Abel’s assistant Lauren.
‘How could you forget that?’
[That’s true, but I like him too.]
The right spirit declared.
[that’s right. It smells good.]
The left spirit also declared.
[Then what about Ren?]
[Ren is good too. But she got a little less likeable as she grew up.]
[It’s because I became an adult man.]
[Isn’t he an adult man too?]
Now the spirits began to discuss smells. You are right, I am right. After talking excitedly, he closed his beak as if he was tired. Then he ran at a quick pace and entered Richt’s arms.
[Let’s get some sleep and think.]
[good. I’m going to sleep here.]
[I am here.]
They said that the wind spirit was the most difficult to deal with because of its capriciousness, and that didn’t seem to be the case. The spirits settled down here and there on Richt’s body and began to doze off. Still, I was glad. At least while you sleep, your location will not be known. Richt, who had been looking at his spirit, decided to take a moment to look at it himself.
The knights and Lauren dispersed and followed Licht’s trail. Then, Lewis was the first to find the traces. It was a trace he found while walking down the river. It seemed like it got a little easier after that, but Licht was no easy task.
I deliberately chose only the rough paths that would allow me to erase my traces.
‘I’m not the kind of person who deserves this.’
In the confusion, Lauren called upon the wind spirit.
[why!]
[what!]
[why!]
There are a total of three wind spirits that Lauren can call. Although it is still low level, it is quite useful.
“Find me someone.”
[What are you going to give me?]
[It’s Ren.]
[Then just listen, okay?]
The wind spirits heard Lauren’s request and dispersed here and there. Now, you will be able to find Richt in no time. Then Abel’s nerves will calm down. He patted his chest, saying he was glad, but his spirits did not return until the sky darkened.
‘Why aren’t you coming back?’
Now Lauren is starting to worry about the spirits. These were spirits that I had worked hard to obtain at a young age. Afterwards, we became very attached to him while he was growing up. They were friends and family. Although they were uncontrollable and mischievous, they were people that could not be lost.
While I was worried, Abel caught Licht’s traces again.
“found.”
The way he showed his teeth and smiled reminded me of a wild beast. Richt’s traces led to a cave on the side of a small mountain. And Lauren reunited with her spirits who were dozing off there.
Someone shook their body. Just when his initially cautious touch began to become harsh, Richt opened his eyes. As I lifted my heavy eyelids, an unfamiliar face I had never seen before appeared. He was a man with a gentle face and short brown hair.
“... ... who?”
My voice was scratchy due to my dry throat from not drinking water.
“hello. “My name is Lewis.”
The unfamiliar man immediately introduced himself.
“Although I am short, I am serving as deputy commander of the Redford Knights.”
Redford Knights. That’s Archduke Graham’s Knights. He must have been a great person to be the deputy commander there. What a body. This is ridiculous. When Richt brought it up to that point, his body trembled.
The deputy commander of the Redford Knights couldn’t have just shown up here. He was always the one who moved with Archduke Graham and Abel.
‘I got caught.’
The moment that thought occurred to me, I looked over at Louis, who was bent over. A few human legs were visible near the cave entrance. My physical condition was too bad to shake off all those people and run away.
‘What should I do?’
I tried to turn my head, but nothing came to mind, as if something was blocking me. I wondered why this was happening, so I lifted her hand and placed it on her forehead, and found that she had a severe fever. The reward for rolling over my weak body came back.
