Translators – LN & LL

Even if it wasn’t for her, Max shook her back as it was frightening After staring at Uslin’s face for so hilanced ely at the people left behind and hurried up the stairs following him Riftan alks so fast coate Max had to alarden

“Ri-Riftan…”

When she called hi heavily to her chin, Riftan barely stopped walking

Max didn’t knohat to say, her surprised heart calmed down a little, she felt ashas, at least for Riftan… Max wanted to show hinified appearance of her

Tears welled up all of a sudden, and she lowered her head hurriedly Riftan was looking down at the scene of Max bursting into tears

“So ould you say and do soed her shoulders As if sing a ball of fire, as Riftan’s throat rang loudly Sweeping his face roughly with his palht voice

“I’m sorry…you had to hear that”

On an unexpected apology, Max looked up at him et eyes Riftan murmured a small sord and held her cheek

“I’m sorry So, don’t cry”

Then Riftan lowered his head and rubbed his forehead against hers Max gulped down her tears and grabbed his clothes tightly Riftan wiped her tears, wondering what to do

“I won’t let theain So, don’t cry”

It was not Riftan’s fault that the knight spoke that way It was her fault, Max just despised herself for what she ho’s always hesitating, stuttering, and had no ability (TL – you’re more than what you think max TT)

Her heart throbbed If she were a respectable lady, he would not have fought with his knight If Riftan had only nes, he would have received more respect than now (TL- Oh, Jesus maxi, don’t say that)

Max felt so embarrassed She always hated herself, but she has never felt as terrible as she does now Max buried her forehead in his chest and closed her eyes tightly

“Well, I-I’o back to work”

“Your eyes are red and bloodshot”

“I-I can wipe it… y-you don’t have to worry about it, I-I’m okay…”

“How can I not worry?”

Max gave Riftan a perplexing look, unable to step away fro in his arms, she was embarrassed to face him because Riftan has to see her sniffle like a child She was relieved by the butler’s call to find Riftan

“I-it’s just…a l-little e b-but nu-now I’m really okay”

“I’ll be very careful not to let you take that attitude again”

Riftan spoke again in a strong tone Max shook her head with a perplexing look

“Well, you don’t have to c-care about it… b-because it’s part of m-my job”

“Of course I will”

He spoke in a rather nervous voice

“You’re the one I care most in the world I know you’re offended, but don’t talk like that”

Max looked at his stiff face with a perplexing look It was not her intention for Riftan to argue with his knights, but Riftan seemed to feel offended and want her to take a rest fro into his shady eyes, Max sht have been whining toa Lady But Max kneell that she wasn’t worth it She tried to speak calmly with a faint smile (TL – you’re worth it!)

“I-I’ht back, take a rest”

“Oh, I-I got it”

Riftan looked at her pale face for a long time to see if she was relieved, and barely opened the door and went outside

Max sat in front of the fireplace and stared blankly at the scene of the sparks popping up The cats, ere playing with the sea, crept up on her lap and pressed their heads into her sto the cat’s back
