“Will you answer? Why did Lady Camun try to kill me?”

“I don’t know.”

Valder responded fiercely with a growl.

Ruela nodded without a change in expression and turned away.

“I see. Since you don’t know, there’s nothing more to discuss. Goodbye.”

“Ruela!”

“Lominin, sir.”

Hearing Kite correcting Valder’s address, Ruela quickly entered the house.

“Miss, are you okay?”

Shuna, who was waiting, rushed over and checked her complexion.

“I’m fine. No, I feel strangely relieved. It’s like completing a task I really didn’t want to do in one go.”

But everything wasn’t over.

Because Valder’s temper had been provoked, it was not advisable to leave colleagues in a standoff.

Ruela opened the screen to check the time.

It was a little past 10 AM. Rumor had it that this time was exceptionally early on the nobles’ biological clocks. If that was the case, Valder’s visit was very impolite.

Thinking once again that she really disliked it, Ruela peeked outside through the window and asked,

“Has everyone had their meals?”

“Not yet. They all woke up late today. The others got up around 9, and Sir Hagen came down when I was about to wake Miss.”

“Alright, go to Emma and ask her to prepare our meal.”

After asking Shuna for the favor, Ruela opened the front door again and spoke loudly.

“Come inside, everyone. Since we have a lot to do today, let’s have a meal quickly. I’m starving.”

At her words, Hagen turned around and said,

“Right, Ruela can’t stand hunger. Let’s all go in. Master Valder, then. We’ll see you during the trade negotiations later.”

Valder’s reluctant farewell seemed to reach this far.

Before he could say anything, Ruela urged her colleagues once again.

“Hurry up. And let’s write ‘Guests Declined’ even more prominently in front of the main gate and entrance later.”

“I’ll attach it again later. What are you doing? Let’s go eat quickly.”

Raphael, who came in first, called his friends.

As Kite entered last and closed the front door, they could hear the sound of horses outside, followed by the appearance of Valder and his group running.

“It’s fortunate that everything is going smoothly.”

Tien said, and Hagen, as if feeling quite relieved, nodded.

“Don’t be too relieved. Seeing his eyes, he hasn’t given up his obsession with Ruela. I don’t know what will happen after the negotiation is over.”

“When is the negotiation date?”

Ruela asked, and Kite replied.

“The second negotiation is scheduled for a month later.”

“The first negotiation has already ended.”

“Yeah, that’s right. It ended before we arrived. The second negotiation team was practically arranged for Kuran’s situation reconnaissance and recruiting new soldiers under the healer Ruela. ”

Kite led Ruela to the dining room while talking.
“Instead of teleporting when we go to the hunting grounds today, how about taking a carriage? We can also visit the city center.”

Seated on the chair Kite pulled out for her, Ruela asked.

“Are you planning to buy a ring?”

“There’s that reason, but also because we should be cautious for a while. Count Gart will be watching us closely. It’s better to refrain from using teleportation, especially when appearing in the middle of the village, which is too conspicuous.”

Agreeing, Ruela spooned the soup offered by the maids.

“That’s true. Until I reach level 70 and learn designated teleportation, it’s better to be careful not to arouse suspicion, even if it takes some time.”

“Designated teleportation?”

Showing more interest in Ruela’s new skill than anyone else, Tien asked with sparkling eyes.

“Yes. Currently, it’s only possible to teleport to the designated location, the town square, at level 1. But when level 2 is unlocked, you can designate and travel to five different locations.”

“Any place is fine?”

“Yes, any place.”

Tien continued to bombard with questions, forgetting about the food.

“We should carefully choose the locations, then. You might want to set a place as a teleportation point when you move to a different area later.”

“Just release and reassign it.”

“It’s truly a convenient ability.”

Ruela responded with a sigh to Tien’s admiration.

“You’ve encountered truly skilled healers.”

Although healing is a skill that anyone can learn, here, Ruela is the only healer, so it’s natural to boast a bit.

In the game, even with such conveniences, healers were not popular due to being non-combatants. However, receiving such special treatment was a fresh experience.

Later, there were a few people who raised characters for their rarity, but in the early days, healers were characters that you had to look hard to find because of their scarcity.

“If you’ve finished eating, shall we prepare to leave?”

After a while, it seemed like everyone had finished their meal, so Kite stood up and said.

“Is everything settled from yesterday? Is there anything I can help with?”

In response to Ruela’s concern, Kite replied with a gentle expression.

“It’s okay. I’ve finished everything busy. The advisors will come later around dinner time, so there shouldn’t be any more problems.”

Ruela replied with a delighted expression.
