Chapter 67

We decide to take the child back to the fortress, where we see the reinforcement has arrived.

Two banners on top of the wall indicate which house already arrived in the fortress. One of them is a black crow perching on a tree branch with a golden background. The second one is a golden snarling lion on a black background.

From those two banners, I know house Lionheart and Tarrow are the ones that arrived. However, why are they the first ones to arrive? Lionheart and Tarrow is the house on the edge of the Southern Nobles' territory. They are the furthest people to help us.

Something is not right.

I quickly shake my head and discard that kind of thinking. Jullian and I get back to the fortress, and when we arrive inside the fortress, I give the child to Jullian and say.

"Jullian, take him to the healing tent, okay?"

"Of course, young master."

While Jullian takes the child away, I walk to the Lord's Mansion, where his father and the other lords stay.
