Francesca smiled. "Shouldn't you feel proud of your son? Hmm? Despite you never giving him proper praise or acknowledgment."
Garius smiled and shook his head. "Let's just go." He glanced back at Alf, Erinette, and all the battle maids and Armand elite special guards.
Alf nodded and smiled before looking at the leader of the Armand guards.
The leader nodded and moved with several of his men, equipped with mana rifles, heading out first to secure the path for their king and queen.
Garius started walking slowly the moment Shironii and Javier's puppet knights moved into position.
Alf and Erinette, along with the others, followed Garius and Francesca from behind, staying on full alert, their eyes scanning the surroundings for any threats.
Garius chuckled softly when he noticed that with every graceful step Francesca took, a soft, shimmering light flashed around her feet, purifying the air and ground beneath her.
"Honey, you don't need to use that skill, you know."
