Meanwhile, over at Katherine's perspective...
As she walked down the road with Flamebeard, the two soon arrived at a small wooden house.
"The king has been ill for the past few days. Sorry if he——"
"It's okay. I don't actually need to see the king unless he wants to see me... I'm actually here to ask a question."
"I'll try my best to answer it, Duchess Reid."
The two stopped right at the doorway, not going inside as Flamebeard waited for Katherine's question.
"Is the rumor about a dragon roaming nearby true?"
Flamebeard fell into silence as he looked to the side before turning over to Katherine.
"That rumor is obviously false. Why would a dragon go towards here out of all places?
Whoever spreads those rumors is either delusional or has another motive. But there was a sighting of a relatively big monster."
"Big monster?"
