”Leave?” Rody's heart ju that was difficult to explain rose in his heart as he asked, ”Why do you want to leave?”

Muse tried to sound cold as she replied, ”Why can't I leave? When I lost ic, I was your prisoner! But now I have recovered completely Do you have the ability to stop me? Watt Fortress may have tens of thousands of soldiers but if I want to leave, will they be able to stop me?”

Rody was agitated He walked up to her and said in a low voice, ”Prisoner? You're saying that you were a prisoner? That day I was seriously injured If you wanted to go, how could I have stopped you? You said you were a prisoner but along the way here, you had plenty of chances to escape!” Rody looked straight at Muse His eyes gave a coaze

Muse could not look hihed and said, ”Why do you want to keep me here? You know that I arasslands I need to go back to the Te Sauron's conspiracy to subvert the Te here… what is the use of staying?”

Rody stared at her without speaking Muse's heart softened as she said, ”Both of us are people with high positions and big responsibilities… I… If I asked you to followto?”

Rody took it and looked at the s in the world He gritted his teeth and said, ”I will keep this properly and protect it as though it were my own eyes!” Rody then took out his scimitar and cut a lock of his blonde hair After that, he cut out a piece of cloth and wrapped his hair before giving it to Muse ”I do not have anything to give you so, take this to reet et you!”

Muse trembled She took the hair wrapped in cloth and kept it close to her chest She then looked at Rody and said softly, ”If you do not forget et you too!”

During the past few days, they called each other 'idiot' and 'Duke of Tulip Family' but they had never called each other by their names

Rody shook his head and shouted, ”No, Seth is a name used by others! Remember, my name is Rody!” He then paused and added, ”Only those close to me know me by this name!”

Muse looked happy when she heard the words, 'those close to me' She nodded and loudly replied, ”You coure The bureaucracy is like the battlefield Many want to claie the thrust of an open spear than to avoid being stabbed from the back Be careful”
