Chapter 23

AIN could only idly stand around and do nothing. Nasette sat on the edge of the bed where Tita slept and sipped his alcohol as he watched her sleep. When Luca declared he was bringing Tita with him to the prison, Ain vaguely thought, I knew it.

Luca hated the idea of putting Yuki in danger from the start. Even when they went to Fol, he would have gotten someone to take her place had she not been exposed as his Master in such detail.

Most people would normally hate the idea of having a young girl tag along with them everywhere, but Ain’s master was not normal. If he were honest about it, he thought Luca changed a little from the Luca he knew in the past.

Luca interacted as the real him—not the facade he put on for others—with those who knew him since childhood, while everyone else were nothing more than tools in his eyes.

Since they were young, female spies and the like approached Luca. The way Luca dealt with those spies was a punishment vicious enough it traumatized Ain. That was the kind of man Luca was.

And yet he is carefree and open with Yuki. Aside from her strange eye color, Yuki was an ordinary child. At one time Ain suspected she was a Witch or a spy, but soon learned that was a needless fear.

Or maybe it’s because she’s ordinary. She appears happy. At the very least, she must have been raised by a loving and happy family. She doesn’t know how to doubt others. Whenever she comes across something she doesn’t know she tilts her head with curiosity, and enthusiastically tries to learn more. She got attached to me after I taught her about our world, and has since asked me questions every chance she gets.

Ain didn’t think it would be possible for someone like Yuki to be raised in a land impoverished by a never-ending war. Nasette’s sudden movement made Ain aware he was absently lost in his thoughts.

Nasette gently moved Tita’s hair out of her face after she rolled over in bed. Tita, who had been sobbing several hours earlier, was peacefully sleeping now. Nasette had procured a sleeping poultice to ease Tita into sleep. Ain wasn’t able to do anything for his childhood friend after seeing her for the first time in years. He couldn’t do anything for her as she uttered, “Prince Lucat,” through trembling lips.

There was nothing he could do, and it’s not like he hadn’t tried. The spy they hired was killed, the person they bribed ran away; they tried every conceivable plan, but each time it was obstructed by some unknown means. Their last-ditch suicidal attempt tomorrow morning may very well be a trap too. In fact, Ain expected it was; someone was working in the background to manipulate events.

“It will spell the true end for Rvydom if we don’t save Sir Dante,” Luca said. Luca was trying to split the continent back into three self-sufficient countries.
