With a teasing smile at the flustered young knights, Maxi left the banquet hall with Elliot. Unfortunately, that evening marked the last romantic moment she would share with her husband for some time. In the days that followed, Riftan was occupied with multiple daytime gatherings and evening events, including those hosted by the pope.

They were just about to join the other couples when Elliot approached Riftan. "Commander, the king is looking for you."

aww
She looked up at Riftan through her tears. He nudged her onto his lap and held her tightly. When he began to pat her back as though soothing a child, Maxi wound her arms around his neck and nuzzled against his broad shoulder.

Tears threatened to spill over, for which she felt incredibly foolish. Shame at having such a man as her father washed over her. Suppressing her sobs, she pressed her burning eyes to her sheets. She had no idea how long she lay there, trying to contain her rising emotions, when she felt strong arms enveloping her.

"You need not thank me. In truth, I am becoming rather used to coming to your rescue," Kuahel said tersely as he lowered his visor again.

Her chest heaving, Maxi looked up at her savior. Standing at the wagon's opening was a man in a black hood, beneath which was a visor engraved with a cross.

The monster hunched over. Its scaly hands fumbled at its stomach, trying to stop the blood gushing from its torso. In a blink, the monster's head rolled to the floor.

Maxi flung herself aside as the heavy ax struck the wooden floor. Her back slick with sweat, she stuck close to the wagon's edge, her heart pounding wildly as she scrambled to summon her mana.

welp
Suddenly, a shadow loomed over her. Her head whipped up to see a bearded man — likely one of the supply guards — blocking the wagon entrance and looking straight at her. She opened her mouth to explain when the man raised his ax, readying to attack. His dead eyes contracted like a snake's before glowing red.

Maxi pushed the thought aside. Now was not the time for speculation. She placed her hands on the rune and infused mana into it, trying to dismantle its power.

"You still can't take a joke," Rosetta said, sighing. She directed the four knights and two ladies-in-waiting behind her with a curt nod. "You will wait here."
