Additionally, old friend?
Will Alonso die at the hand of the Sword Bearer?
Could it be that Count Habs' old friend is a Prophet? Or a Diviner?
Rein's thoughts began to wander.
"My lord Earl, I too regret this matter deeply because Baron Alonso had already been controlled by the Evil God of the Black Flame Cult, and I was also facing the threat of the Black Flame High Priest. In such a situation, I could not hold back..."
Facing an old man who had lost his eldest son, Rein explained the circumstances.
However, the shield-bearing strongman and the short-staffed young man beside them, after hearing Count Hab's words, both looked at Rein with great interest.
"Hmm, a Sword Bearer candidate? Are you set to participate in the selection half a month from now?"
"Indeed, the strength of this young man should pose no problem in passing the assessment," the shield-bearing strongman revealed an enlightened expression.
