Chapter 44: 044 Hunting_1

"The Marquis is not in the castle?"

"Yes, the marquis has gone hunting in the suburbs."

Colin and Vera came up empty-handed, Marquis Garcia was not in the castle at the moment.

"Could you take us to see him, then?"

"Of course, it's my honour." The marquis's guard could not refuse Vera's request.

Consequently, Colin followed the marquis's guard to the stable to fetch the horses, and Vera went back to change into more suitable equestrian attire.

Upon arriving at the stables, Colin encountered a familiar face.

"Good morning, Knight Cynthia." Colin greeted cheerily, already internally badmouthing her as "crazy woman".

Cynthia seemed to have just returned from outside. Upon seeing Colin, she was taken aback, and then asked with a displeased face, "What are you doing here?"

"Well, I'm not here to find you." Colin, seeing the rude behaviour of this mad woman, retorted back in kind.

Cynthia bulged her eyes, her right hand instinctively reaching for the sword at her waist.
