Rufus

Rufus watched his master leave in the carriage together with his servants.

Right now, the young man is alone in front of the Isengard Fortress. 

He had mixed feelings about his master's decision to leave him like that… However, he felt that there must be a reason why he did that... 

'Anyway, he said that he'll look for me one day…'

The young man pondered… He's not aware when would that happen but it seems that the Sentient Arcana was implying that he should get stronger first before his master would look for him.

'Mhmm… I even got an Arcana… Maybe that's why he felt it's alright to leave me now?'

Rufus scratched his head as he couldn't understand a Sentient Arcana's train of thought.  Nevertheless, he knows that his master has already acknowledged his skills. This is why the Arcana was already confident of leaving him be…

'Ugh… But I'm not confident…'

The young man grumbled as he dragged his feet to reach the Fortress.
