Max, Sophie, Moonlight, and Elanor were still standing in the hallway.
Then heavy footsteps echoed from the other end of the corridor.
Clank.
Clank.
Clank.
A tall figure covered in armor walked toward them.
Neros.
The knight stopped in front of the group.
"Don is already finishing the preparations for the carriages."
His deep voice echoed from inside the helmet.
"We will depart soon."
Elanor sighed.
"Then I suppose I'll have to skip my magic classes today."
Max raised an eyebrow.
"Are you sure your teacher won't kill you?"
Elanor smiled slightly.
"For this reason, I think she'll understand."
She looked at the group.
"I want to say goodbye before you leave."
Neros gave a slight nod.
"I'll wait outside."
Then he added calmly,
"Take the time you need."
Sophie smiled.
"Thank you very much, brother."
Moon's eyes widened.
"…Brother?"
She looked at Neros in surprise.
"That guy is your brother?"
Sophie let out a small laugh.
"Yes."
