On the road outside the Golden Feather Palace, Ronin and Blanche were sharing their final farewells.
After spending five or six days together, which included some moments of intimacy, their relationship had deepened quickly. Now, as they parted, both were reluctant to leave.
However, being in public, they could only exchange a few words of parting and refrained from any overly intimate gestures.
Not far away, Missy Knight watched them, a flicker of envy in her eyes.
A moment later, Ronin waved to Blanche, then turned, mounted his horse, and led his party toward Horn Bay.
"I didn't expect His Majesty the King to have you lead the knights accompanying me out to sea."
Ronin rode side-by-side with Missy.
To be honest, when he heard that Missy would be leading the Royal Family's Knights, he had been quite surprised by Bruno's arrangement.
'For him to make such an arrangement, knowing full well about Karda and Missy... Is Bruno some kind of avid matchmaker now?'
