Every step held meaning, and thanks to that, there was a sense of heaviness on his shoulders.
“I will make you a savior, not a destroyer.”
“Lenisha.”
“If I lose, you will become a destroyer, but if I win, you will be the savior who saved Hyentri. So, Cassius…”
Cassius stood before Lenisha, placing one leg forward and kneeling.
With a more reverent expression than anyone else, Cassius looked up at Lenisha and spoke.
“I, Knight Cassius, swear to Lenisha Rotheira. Your path will be my path, and your dream will be my dream. I will crush your enemies with my sword and protect you with my shield. I pledge my life to Cassius Rotheira.”
Cassius kissed Lenisha’s hand.
Lenisha bit her lip.
Her heart swelled.
No one was preventing what she desired.
Not her parents, her one remaining brother, or finally, her husband.
It seemed like the many people following Lenisha were there.
Viscount Calliot, who had been observing the situation, knelt behind Cassius.
“Knight Calliot also swears.”
The knights of Rotheira, including him, kneeled successively.
“Knight Terrian swears.”
In the faces of those who had been suppressing laughter, only reverence remained.
Metheo, who had been watching the commotion, stepped forward.
“I, Prince Metheo of Shandir, also declare my support for Lenisha Rotheira’s will. My will is the same as Shandir’s, so Shandir will be with you as well.”
Metheo knelt like a knight.
The only one standing in the chapel was Lenisha.
A shiver ran through her.
It felt like warm blood was circulating from her fingertips to her toes.
Her hair stood on end.
Transparent tears rolled down Lenisha’s cheeks.
All of this originated from the Duke and Duchess of Rotheira.
If they had considered Lenisha’s innate prophecy ominous and rejected her, this moment wouldn’t have existed.
It was their sacrifice that protected Lenisha’s life.
Even though she still harbored guilt for sacrificing her parents, she couldn’t give up on her dream.
When Lenisha, holding her hand, came out of the royal palace as a child, Duke Rotheira said.
“Lenisha, if you wish, you will have that position.”
“Is father going to make it happen?”
“No. But, I can support you as a helper.”
The Duke of Rotheira always found the thousand-year history of a declining Hyentri pitiful.
Hyentri needed a new wind of reform.
Did the Duke of Rotheira see that possibility in Lenisha?
‘My beloved daughter, Letisha. May every moment of yours shine.’
Following the Duke of Rotheira’s wish, Lenisha was shining brighter than anyone else.
Ashkarod became Cassius’s sword.
And Cassius became Lenisha’s sword and shield.
As she desired.
Luna’s footsteps gradually slowed.
Her breathing reached her chin, and her heart raced madly.
Even though her mouth was dry with fear, her body couldn’t summon any more strength.
“Sigh… Why is it so hard to talk…”
“What story! You came looking for me knowing I’m a werewolf!”
Luna sharply screamed.
Avoiding the man reaching out toward her, Luna stepped back.
She was getting ready to tidy up and disappear upon hearing that there were pursuers, but she got caught.
Since leaving the life of a gladiator slave, Luna hadn’t let go of her sword, but it was useless against the man in front of her.
Luna tightened her grip on the sword.
Even if she had to die, she would die with honor!
“Yah!”
“Wait! I’m a werewolf too! Listen to me!”
The man parried Luna’s sword and shouted.
Luna’s sword, which was skewed and misaligned, fell to the ground.
Startled, Luna, who was stepping back, was grabbed by the man.
“For whatever reason you’re doing this… listen to me! I’m also a fellow werewolf.”
The man said after putting his sword in its sheath.
“Cassius sent me. Remember Cassius?”
Luna’s eyes widened.
Cassius.
He was the guy she used to know and get along with when she worked as a gladiator slave.
The werewolf boy who ran forward without looking back.
She knew he was extraordinary, but…
“Cassius sent you?”
“Yeah. I’m a fellow knight working with Cassius. My name is Kian.”
Luna relaxed her guard.
“Why did you come looking for me?”
“Cassius is looking for werewolves.”
Kian took out a pocket he had been hiding.
In the pocket was a round jade-colored badge.
It was a status badge that werewolves used to carry in the past.
“Hysham!”
“Hysham Cassius is looking for werewolves. Follow me to them.”
Luna touched the badge with trembling eyes.
No werewolf would fail to recognize this.
“Cassius…”
“Cassius is trying to lead werewolves to peaceful lands. Follow him.”
Kian spoke confidently, straightening his shoulders.
Finally, they found the werewolves!
