The dusk began setting in slowly and exhaustion even sooner Seeing the sight of the wounded still in need of treatment, Max wondered if she could return to the castle today

The thought of spending the night out here in the cold, the enervation seemed to sink all the way to her stomach Her face was filled orry when a wooden boas thrust into her line of sight

“Please eat this, my lady”

Max looked up at the ht who had previously tried to send her back to the castle earlier stood holding a stea bowl of soup

“It’s rabbit stew, my lady It can’t be coood meal”, he said with a s at him blankly, accepted the bowl She suddenly realized she had skipped lunch in and was now extreratefully accepted the bowl

“Please, say nothing of it Before… “

Without caring about her surroundings, her quick fingers began to work As soon as she scooped a spoonful of stew into her mouth, a hesitant voice reached out to her Max’s nerves spiked What else could he possibly have to say to her?

Unexpectedly, the knight came before her, as frozen in surprise and bowed his head respectfully

“I apologize for my actions earlier As your Ladyshi+p said, I was rude”

Max stared blankly at the top of the knight’s head, with spoon still in her ine that someone would bow her head to her She quickly put down the bowl and waved her hands

“N-no, please I-It was rather I… as… o-oversensitive… I-I’m sorry,” she said hastily

She was eht in that situation, and she also knew that she had to rein in her nerves hereon

“Please, ize Was it not I who first showed disrespect towards your Ladyshi+p? It was no overreaction for someone of your stature”

Max’s cheeks turned red at the knight’s words Her stiff shoulders drooped with relief

“Th-Thank you… f-for saying t-this” She was indeed thankful The weight had been lifted off of her chest

The knight’s face changed uncomfortably at her shyly spoken words, and he wasn’t sure what to say next The tere saved from the aard atmosphere by Ruth’s return to the barracks fro next to Max and opened his eyes

“Sir Karon, is there a proble for my bad manners towards her ladyshi+p” He answered honestly
