232 Divine or Devil

"Asura!?"

The voice of Princess Vela sounded. While Lorem stood before Barbatos, her wounds healed, but the marks on her skin would take time to tan like the rest of her body.

"I couldn't defeat the blademaster Siegfried Verheist, commander Barbatos. Forgive me, although he should be significantly weaker and won't be the threat he was previously."

'I won't tell them about Asura's actions or changes. He is my husband and soulmate!'

Lorem's heart and mind didn't exist to serve the kingdom of Silvara anymore—instead, she lived because her beloved had returned, and she wanted to enjoy life with him. 

Even if the kingdom tried to exile or execute them, she would never betray him.

"Knight Lorem, may I ask what is wrong with student Fenix?" Barbatos asked, causing Princess Vela's shoulders to shudder. She seemed to be confused, because he left suddenly with a small wave instead of waiting for her.
