I became the sick nobelman

"What's that? I think it's near my house."

Violet and golden lights appeared almost identically out of the carriage window.

"It's Tyson and Aris."

Cassion smiled happily.

"I see you're finally teaching, ha..."

Ruel exhaled deeply.

"Who else is left?"

'I met the butler and several servants. Thanks to this, I was able to return home after dark.'

"Congratulations. Thanks to Ruel-sama's persistence, only Setiria's Ear remains."

The being called the Ear was a so-called living informant, also known as a spy.

They were essential in finding various information from outside or inside Setiria.

"Doesn't it hurt?"

Ruel pointed to Cassion's heart.

"This is fine. It was a great time to feel the power of an exclusive magic handkerchief again."

"You saw it, too, right? Crying and saying that they did something wrong to me. As expected, I shouldn't have sent a letter."

"I don't really like that look on their faces. It has been five years. They did nothing and were devoured by their sense of helplessness. It's not worthwhile in my personal opinion."

Unlike his serious words, Cassion took out a thermal patch, a magic tool, and put it on Ruel's forehead.

"I know."

"Are you going to help others again?"

"Are you crazy?"

"You are not like the old Ruel. Regardless of the past, you're the one who's looking for usable people, aren't you?"

Ruel inhaled the Breath. He turned his head and looked out the window.

"It's just a trace."

Traces of Ruel's presence other than himself. 'I didn't even want to erase it.'

Cassion answered as usual.

"Is that so?"

Whirlik.

Suddenly he took the dagger in his hand. And the carriage stopped.

Ruel noticed a strange feeling.

"What's wrong?"

"Stay calm in the carriage. You can't come out."

Cassion disappeared from his sight. Ruel looked out the window again.

It was dark around and only the stars in the sky were clearly visible.

For a brief moment, a few lights appeared.

It was a number that seemed to be more than eight people, even as an estimate.

'The thief... I don't think so.'

Ruel held his breath at the quiet sound of swords clashing.

'Who is it?'

'There were many things that I could have guessed because there were many things that I did, but I did not put restrictions on most of them.'

Smack!

Something flew in and broke the window.

Crash.
