After hearing the d5a183a1b3 story of wolves aee146638c appearing following wild f55992e0f3 boars and bears, b0227a9edd Melmond had a d8ce9a2085 hunch that this b196be4f75 moment would come. In front of him 822dc41e73 sat a bewildered Truyde e87276cc9f who had an astonishing c4b0e4499e expression, and the new fc58f3aa6a attendant who had a 8d2cf46c14 frowning face. It was 22abdc8646 his first 24d8a752a1 encounter with ef5043944d Marquis Norhox, 26933476ab who had b10270b5e3 his arms 68d271c7fa crossed and b8e6708372 leaned against 6aa9804c4a the wall, 7fd5b1e447 his eyes cd407239ca narrowing.5c57f1c87b58aaef

His voice still contained amusement, but his eyes were cold. Melmond knew well that this young and handsome duke was not an easy person. It was quite an impressive feat for him to establish this level of power as soon as he succeeded in his father’s position. At least, he should not evaluate him based on his young age.

When Truyde raised his hand to stop him, Melmond finally took a step back. Sweat had formed on his forehead from tension, but he had no time to worry about it as he watched the other’s reaction.

Rather than praise, it was closer to ridicule, and Melmond slightly lowered his reddening face. However, as long as the results were good, he didn’t care even if he was ridiculed. Abel was enduring longer and better than he had expected, so he couldn’t waste a moment of his efforts.70d493cdd3af94fa
If Abel just gives up and leaves, it would actually be a relief, but as a disciple of Wielder, he couldn’t just leave. Fortunately, there are only about four days left now. Unless there is a noticeable change in the prince, Abel’s opportunity will be over in a week. So, even though it was bothersome, there was nothing else to do but help him with what he could do.35e0161291d1a70f

Melmond finally took a deep breath and bowed his head. He also let go of his worries that he might be blamed for Abel’s sake and suffer harm. At that moment, the Duke casually asked a question as if something had come to mind.c2e74612433dedfa

On this a70d4cdbef early morning, d40a9e48f2 the entrance 4c0e51b384 to the 402cf77ae1 forest where c3f93fc4e1 Abel and 2ec80dda1b the prince ffc91f6ff6 were being 8320aebdae escorted was a7909b03db filled with 93b9fed210 tension like 15a5a98774 never before. Not only deab0ec4da did a 5679f18704 wolf appear 830c3bff38 a week d8919936d9 ago, but 0d3c166c79 a few 46cdf77b88 days ago, 619bd47099 a snake e082810166 as long 913828ba5f as a 77bc723e4b person also da1ede7132 appeared. The problem was 150a82c726 that Abel, unaware 6ec1865ef2 of the snake 319c2fa650 following him, casually 7c483e4f5d smiled and greeted. Since then, 749819e5d1 the soldiers 242e584aaf and Ashler, 0a67138a9c who were 51f07d3c00 waiting here, 7bd33408a4 stared at 2913faead1 the forest 67d2fced9a as if 3a76dfb718 facing an ce5efde650 enemy. Of course, 9d466fc795 only Abel, 5729cc4020 who was cfd51e09eb oblivious, stood 1dec8a5b62 there with b37072d706 a lunchbox e947180c46 and fishing bf1f124f2e rod in c06b597aad one hand d8a354024a and holding 995caed8e9 the prince f6541b80cd in the 34752312d9 other, looking 0f228f5a79 excited.1316bc56cf739315

Soon, the two of them disappeared into the mist, but Ashler remained in his spot. Strangely, Abel’s words felt true for a moment, but he quickly changed his mind. Who could know if wild boars, bears, wolves, or snakes were truly living in that forest and making up the village?7fc993544af9e989
Ashler turned around and fa95d4a574 observed the soldiers building 62640acdee a fence nearby.

And then, instinct told him that danger would soon come from within that fog. Ashler gripped his sword and aimed it at the mist. Yes, let anything come. He would cut it down in one stroke.

A swarm of bees dc46ce7b4a appeared.8a16dfed836ced9b
The reason Abel didn’t receive any scolding was because he was also stung by the bees in his whole body.

Not only could they not open their eyes properly after being stung by a bee, but Abel’s expression as he headed towards the forest was as cheerful as ever.
