The seed of miracles that Mia had unwittingly planted would go on to sprout in the heart of the saboteur fanning the revolution’s flames. Not a soul yet knew what kind of flower it would ultimately yield.

Chapter 27: Forward, Diamond Legion!

After two days of rest and recuperation in the village, Mia and Sion were introduced to a merchant who was heading to a neighboring settlement.

“Watch yourselves out there, you hear?” shouted Muzic.

Mia waved back at him as they departed the village.

“He’s been so terribly helpful these past few days. I wish we could repay him somehow,” said Mia. When she received no response, she glanced at Sion, who was muttering under his breath.

“I sure hope the others are okay...” There was a hint of concern in his voice. At first, Mia frowned quizzically at him. Then, she remembered.

Ah, that’s right. Of course...

The reason they were here in the first place was the assault on their wagon by assassins. They had no idea what had happened to the wagon afterwards nor whether Keithwood and Tiona were safe.

Hm? Wait a minute. Why does it matter to me whether those two are safe?

They were, after all, two of her archenemies. Their well-being hardly seemed worthy of her concern. But, after mulling over it some more, she reconsidered. On second thought... I guess I can spare a moment to pray for their safety.

Keithwood was probably a cherished friend of Sion’s. Their bond reminded her of the one she shared with her most loyal subject, Anne.

Hmph, I didn’t expect there to be such a human side to him. How surprising.

The earnestness of their friendship struck a chord with her, and she decided that she was willing to stomach the thought of wishing for their safety.

Besides, they were using the Forkroads’ wagon, and I’d feel terrible for Chloe if something happened to it. While I pray for the driver, I suppose I can spare a second to mention their names as well. Plus, I sort of owe Keithwood one for helping us with the sandwiches, and the same goes for Tiona—

“...because if we run into those assassins again, I’m going to have a hard time fighting them off by myself.”

Her thoughts were interrupted by the second half of Sion’s sentence.

“Uh... Would you mind if I asked how hard of a time, exactly?”

“...I intend to do everything in my power to try and make sure you can get away safely. With some luck I might even succeed.”

Keithwood! Sweet moons, Keithwood! Please be safe! And come back to us!

For the second time on her journey, Mia willed an earnest prayer toward the sky. It wasn’t quite as wistful as the first one, but it was certainly more desperate.
