Lord Bertram pointed to the Seventh Level with his other hand, "When that day comes, do not forget the answer you just gave to this official."
With a powerful response, the Seventh Level said, "In this life, I have already let myself down, but I will never let the Wood Dynasty down again."
Satisfied, Owen Bertram nodded and the plain, ancient long sword returned to the sword sheath with a swoosh. Lord Bertram even heard a comfortable moan in his own consciousness.
It felt as if the Swordswoman was relieved, feeling as if she no longer had to show her face to the world.
To her, returning to the sword sheath was like crawling back into a warm quilt in the dead of winter - Lord Bertram was puzzled: Why would you want to come out? Staying in Eden Cave would be more to your liking.
