Chapter 402: Restrained Desires

The woman seemed more terrified by the lord of the city bowing to her in apology, and she began stuttering with a blush, unable to form coherent words. Arthur was confused, as he never had someone falter just from talking to him. 

"Th...no- it's o-okay..." the woman was young, only a bit older than Arthur, and she had freckles beneath her green eyes. He could tell that her innocent appearance allured the knights, but their punishment was inevitable. 

"Can I know what house you are living in?" 

They have numbered the houses the people occupied to facilitate their management, and it was pretty handy. After obtaining the number of the house, Arthur nodded and offered his hand, which the girl grabbed. 

"You might feel a bit dizzy, but this is the safest way to go back," the girl disappeared after hearing Arthur's words, and he went back to the Knight of Courage.
