Ruth shook his hand dryly

“Yes, I want you to enjoy oing to gather rumbled out of the library Rudis followed and quickly put a cape around her shoulder

“Oh, thank you”

“Would you like to stop by your rooo outside?”

“Oh, no This is enough I’d like to go out like this, but can you bring the book to my room, please?”

“I’ll take it withto walk along the promenade”

“But…”

“And when I’m alone, I can concentrate well”

When she spoke ly, Rudis took the book and bowed her head as if there was no other choice

Max turned quickly and walked out of the hallway Bright sunlight was pouring in on the wide stairs with red rugs She gazed up at the white shi+ning ith her squinted eyes as she ran down the stairs The castle was several times colder than usual, perhaps because of the ventilation

Max turned to the kitchen because she thought she would enjoy the heat of the fireplace It will be less cold if she sits in front of the fire, waro outside Curled up to her knees, she walked past the hall with quick steps

However, when she stepped into the heated kitchen, the idea of resting for a while and leaving, faded Max stood at the entrance and looked through the crowded kitchen Usually, double servants orking frantically, groo water bottles fro to turn all the bread into a lu?”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”

Two red-faced boys received a loud roar from the chef who pulled out a brown bread the size of a pue flipper At the opposite table, eight h with es, and various spices to form a small half-moon-shaped pie, while they piled up the bread on a clean woodblock

Five pots were boiling inside the fireplace, and the servants continued to make meat on the charcoal fire, s, and fill it with a large wooden bowl

As the meal time approached, the kitchen was always hectic, but today, the kitchen see at the chef with a half-sick face, Max sneaked up to the chef and asked

“D- do you happen to have a job that the Lord ordered you to do?”

“Oh my God You’re here? I’m sorry My Lady, I couldn’t say hello in advance”

Then the chef bent down hurriedly as if he had noticed her existence Max waved his hand in the sense that she was okay

“Oh, no You…you look busier today”

“Yes, the lord said he would train cavalry thisand ordered us to prepare …?”

“All the knights will gather in the field, ride horses, and do ht”

The chef, who had a bright smile on his wide face, pulled out a crispy fried pie from the oil cooker with a loud noise Then he quickly looked back at her with a sorry look, spraying cinnamon powder and molasses syrup on top of it

“I’m sorry about that, My Lady If we redients because it will burn black, so I can’t stand still for a moment”

“Oh, no I’m sorry to talk to you while you’re busy D-don’t mind me Y-you should continue”

“Are you here for business?”

“Oh, no, just…just passing by”

In a hectic tih the back door because she didn’t want to bother hiarden, five or six workers took axes and split firewood into small pieces and piled them up on carts They took off their hats and bowed their heads then Max waved one hand to respond and began walking straight down the promenade

As she walked a little from the Great Hall, a calm air surrounded her Max looked around, raised her head, and inhaled deeply into her nose The pale sunlight of winter was pouring through the branches of the trees The as so cool that her skin was sore, but the day was rarely sunny

After only sloomy library for a while, she enjoyed the chilly winter air and felt refreshed
