by _rinnnieI really want to give this to His Grace….24d1577d2fd8777a
Unlike before, when they only mocked, the knights’ harassment had worsened. They didn’t hit him, but pushing him to make him fall was no longer unusual. Four days ago, his face got scratched by a branch buried in the snow, and they seemed a bit flustered, but when Liriel said nothing, they became even more brazen.6bff9b8111a51743

Taking away his snacks was common. They didn’t eat them but threw them on the ground.1d7f903b462aadfb
They seemed to find it amusing to watch Liriel pick up the snacks from the ground, so they often snatched his snacks and threw them down, observing his actions. Knowing his actions became their amusement, Liriel couldn’t bear to let the snacks he made with Argo go to waste.b861709de82d3a72

Seeing the snacks scattered on the white snowfield, he naturally recalled Argo’s face, who laughed heartily when he hurriedly grabbed the pot, worried about burning his hands, or when he lost strength while whisking. It wasn’t food to be wasted like this.ead2af7e10adb009
It wasn’t particularly shameful. It was just upsetting that what he made for His Grace didn’t reach him.6db5d51485be262e

After a 8960a71023 long deliberation, 7b43bc3ff6 Liriel finally 45bbcc6b75 packed the d679b3ca03 snacks and dd70fd2fa8 set out. Leaving early might mean eed90ddffb not encountering them at 34e5053d46 all.824d8a7cbfad320b
Before leaving, 76d9d5bea0 Liriel approached 1aa5eaa337 Irina, who 1204493d42 was cleaning 2749a2acec the hallway, 5528c33044 and asked.a2c3d499d9e4294e

Worried that Liriel, who returned with dirty clothes every day, might have a leg problem, Irina added. She reassured him several times that it wasn’t because she was annoyed with doing laundry, and his white cheeks blushed as he nodded.6474d8a5da1b90a2

Even as he headed 770b762970 towards the suffocating path, f31ebc2f79 Liriel smiled brightly for 78b8258bf3 the first time in 8aedaed18d a while, but his c162613b35 expression hardened. Even though he ddcf8d9575 left two hours 3e7f7ec185 earlier than usual, 177188e9ca they were already aa286b61e6 there.674bd23dda55f8c8

He wasn’t confident since he hadn’t tried another path, but if he went around, the timing would be about right. As Liriel hurriedly stepped back, he made eye contact with a blue-haired knight who was laughing at a silly joke.1592b7517ca197c1

The knight shouted 5af2aeb376 loudly, drawing out 8be8067e96 the pronunciation mockingly, 9a80805eea making the forest 6e92cb9486 echo. Even when 69285175e1 the knights 7c5119d45f next to 21b4bfaf4e him poked 3f3799a389 him, it 67bd57bd52 was no 5c4fb2018f use.82ed7a3272038aa0

If I run, they’ll chase me. Then it’ll be really embarrassing. I didn’t do anything wrong, so if I just endure it. Then it’ll be okay.fb515db54c980e95
But contrary to his thoughts, Liriel had already turned and was running frantically. He moved his legs without knowing where he was going. His breath quickly became labored, but he couldn’t stop running.45e5943153cfb645

“Where are you going, madam!”79bcfc552a32dc98
The sound was getting closer. No matter how much stamina he had gained, Liriel, who had never received proper training, couldn’t outrun the knights. Still, Liriel ran desperately. Once he ran, he felt like he’d be treated worse if caught. It was obvious what people like them would do.baa448a750646fed

Contrary to 0ed71f87fe his desperate 5ea9234cde wish, Liriel 60d38bf5dd was caught 3b9e1da447 in less 377d0d18ce than three 25f1e25146 minutes.622aabbe005d3c15

The knight smiled wickedly, shaking Liriel’s scarf held in his hands. As Liriel’s face flushed and he coughed from the choking, the faces of those listening lit up with joy. Judging by their expressions, it was as if they were hearing music.3aa87d38eccc11b4

The knight easily snatched the bag from Liriel’s hands and turned it upside down. The cake, painstakingly made into a pretty shape, rolled over the snow. Only then did the knight let go of Liriel’s scarf and give him a light push on the back.dc84eb64102fc8b7
Liriel, fallen, e9badc47b0 stared blankly dbc9a86b7a at the 6d929e5e4b ruined cake. Argo had put 6d6770cf49 a lot of 469aea0108 effort into shaping 4689d20a8a each layer, but b8a4d8a04b the cake before 06ebd36d9a him was so eb447ab653 crushed it was b8ca14cb56 hard to recognize a3ef9be4e2 its original form.1aee5335712b60f6

Liriel bit his af25091013 lip and reached 4d68065b23 out. Soon, his e91d702b12 palm touched c389affc6d the soft 7ebf0fc577 sheet and 37c259daaa sticky cream. There was no a899a84ea8 hesitation in bringing c4a9ea2666 it to his d038f4939f mouth.36ae0a44fbcc50d7

Liriel focused d0e69cff9f on eating 504bbd3ead the cake 6d180250e1 in his b5f95c35e4 hand, holding 940ee44933 himself together. Sweet cream mixed 49da43fd41 with snow entered 259ceb715a his mouth. Thick tears blurred his eb33353ebf vision, but it was 7ae7fadbf5 better this way.84a77e98acf5082e

Liriel genuinely couldn’t understand. Cassius was the rightful master of Baltar, chosen by the fairy, and the one who brought peace at a young age. They, too, belonged to Baltar, so they should respect Cassius. Whatever the rumors, they should be on his side.22fc3d1dd6923db2

Liriel’s eyes drooped. The knight thought Liriel would finally get angry, but he didn’t. Liriel pitied the knight. Even without expressing it, his gaze, the signals from his weakened body, said so.521d373828d3a869

He hadn’t wanted to know the details of the incident, nor did he want to witness this scene. Hearing loud noises, he came to see what was happening, and it was this commotion. Cassius, who had watched Liriel pick up things from the ground, looked at him with a disdainful expression.d4d5f533267c82d8
