[What's happened?]
Inside the box garden, Adalbert had just extended his hand to help up the Ghost Valley Knight who suddenly fell to his knees.
But the blue light in the black-haired knight's eyes faded, and he stood up, smiling weakly, "It's nothing."
It was just... experiencing a kind of helpless despair."
His gaze grew resolute, "But no matter, I've learned a lot... This time, I'm sure I can do better."

Adalbert sighed with a dim light in his eyes, thinking that Ian was feeling guilty about the people of the Avak laboratory and the entire Avak Domain, so he felt somewhat sad too.
He slightly overestimated Ian's moral standards.
Indeed, Ian would get angry about the tragic fate of those ordinary people and even go into battle for them, but at this point, even if he was truly sad, he would not show it so dramatically.
