Leaving for war

After storing the quiver and antidote potion veils in the storage ring, Kent followed the ladies to the queen's hall, where the queen's mother is waiting for his arrival.

The hurried footsteps sounded loudly in the corridors. Soya is walking beside him, and two servant ladies are holding his long cape in the back. More and more women were gathering behind Kent as they heard loud, rhythmic footsteps.

As he reached the queen's hall, only Kent stepped inside, while the rest stopped at the entrance. Kent bowed to the queen's mother and stood before her in silence.

The queen slowly stood up while staring at her son. Even though she is faking her bravery, inside she is afraid that she might lose the prince in the war. Praying for the Lord Phoenix, she passed a silk cloth letter to Kent.

As Kent unfolded the silk cloth, he saw the details of the Vermillion Bird clan army, their number, their formation, and their exact location.
