Miguel leaped out of the carriage and dashed into the tall grass, running far ahead.

Ian crawled out from under the chair, lifted Luci down first, then descended beneath the carriage.

Wearing the newly acquired equipment, he awkwardly moved his shoulders and arms, as if trying to get used to them.

Though the basic material was still leather, thin plates of steel or chains were added to vulnerable areas like the shoulders, knees, and chest.

Theres a chance the Empire might send pursuers. Keep that in mind as we move, Maeve said.

Ian shrugged his shoulders.

Im aware. Dont worry. Well move as quickly as possible.

According to the plan, they should have reached the northern region by the time news of Luci reached the Empire.

Phew. I wonder what might have happened in just a day. I got really anxious,

Miguel said, bringing the baggage cart he had hidden among the tall grass.

The items he had purchased personally from the outskirts.

It was another deliberate clue to prove the connection between Ian and Miguel.

As Philip and Miguel began loading the carriage as planned.

Mercenary, sir.

A maid approached Ian.

A survivor they had rescued during the night of madness.

I had nothing else to offer in return.

She extended a thick robe and cloak towards him.

I heard the north is cold. I hope this will be of help.

Thank you.

Ian muttered awkwardly.

He hadnt expected this kind of gratitude.

And it wasnt just prepared for Ian alone.

There were things for Miguel and Luci as well.

Luci immediately put on the robe.

The main item was provisions.

Plenty of cheese and jerky were prepared, especially the jerky was a premium product with generous use of spices.

To Ians eyes, it seemed like there was enough food for several meals.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

Please take care of Miss Luci.

The maid made a brisk salute and stepped back.

People lived here too, it seemed.

While Ian smirked, the preparations were complete.

Miguel, who had turned the carriage in the opposite direction, jumped down with a leap.

Then, its farewell.

Maeve finally spoke.

Her gaze towards Ian, Miguel, and Luci was filled with a poignant fondness.

Well, well see each other again someday.

Ian said indifferently.

Because I need to get paid.

!

So until then, dont die.

Sure. Stay alive and wait. Ian.

Maeve nodded as if making a vow.

As he followed onto the horse-drawn carriage, Philip suddenly added.

Its what Sir Ian told me.

Right.

In a situation where I have to make a choice, Ill obey. Its not about the kingdom, but about being with you.

Maeve, who had momentarily opened her eyes, slowly smiled.

Dont worry, Philip. I, too, no longer have any intention of sacrificing my life for the kingdom.

The carriage turned back towards Agellan.

As she gazed in the direction that Ian and his group had departed, Maeve murmured softly.

Arent there unrewarded debts left? Family members we have to see again

Throughout the journey to the mansion, Maeves gaze remained fixed in the same direction.

Of course, the thought that there might be someone else somewhere, looking in the same direction, was an idea she couldnt even dare to dream of.

Squeak-!

A swift hand grabbed the mouse that was crawling on the roof.

It was Tessia, a blood-sucking vampire who had crushed the rats body with a single bite.

Sitting crouched on the edge of the roof like a cat, she sucked on the blood of the mouse while staring beyond the city.

Her once-silver hair now glowed faintly and her blunt nose twitched.

The source of the sweet smell she was longing for was finally moving away from Agellan.

Heh.

Tessias eyes twisted.

She recalled the past times in her mind.

Having recovered her strength by eating wild animals and monsters, she began searching for Ians scent.

She couldnt forget his scent.

It was a scent sweeter and more delicious than anything she had ever smelled as a vampire.

She couldnt explain why that scent came from him.

She had an unquenchable desire to taste his blood someday.

After weeks of effort, she finally found the scent.

Following it, she arrived in Agellan.

And there, she unexpectedly enjoyed an exquisite feast.

On a night with a red moon, delicious monsters began to appear.

The subject of her sweet-smelling craving, the blood, was very faint, but it smelled somewhat similar to what she had sensed from Ian.

Of course, with her current abilities, she could only suck a few of them.

But that was enough.

She became faster, smarter, stronger.

The thirst that had paralyzed her reason was now almost imperceptible.

If I follow them, maybe I can keep eating things like this.

Tessia spat out the mouse and smirked.

She was still lacking when it came to sucking Ians blood.

But she had a feeling that if she continued to follow him secretly, she could gain something.

Maybe someday?
