In the sky of the Consio Kingdom, a white-haired man appeared with a blond-haired woman beside him. He was carrying an unconscious pink-haired maiden on his shoulder. The blond-haired woman glanced at the white-haired man nervously. Her previously cold look was nowhere to be found.
"What bothers you, Brianna?" the white-haired man asked.
"H- How we should proceed from now on, Lord Rusceus?" Brianna stammered.
"Have you forgotten our plan?"
"N- No, it's just…"
"Are you doubting my capability to protect you from Layland Kleinhaus?"
Brianna waved her hands wildly with widened eyes. She explained that she didn't doubt his capability and was only afraid of Layland. It sounded the same, but Rusceus understood what she was saying. He could see the unadulterated fear she bore toward Layland after facing his wrath. She was inciting another one, so it was expected of her to be so apprehensive.
