    ‘Yes, yes,’ Wolf sloppily replied before trailing after Georg . I thought to myself, Would they be alright? as the two wandered off .  

“Hey, Marie . ” 

    I looked towards Miss Bianca who called for me . Her face was deadly serious .  

“Marie, you’re going with them, aren’t you?” 

    She didn’t even have to ask ‘where?‘ I just nodded once .  

    The princess herself was going to a place riddled with sickness . That alone couldn’t be thought of as rational .
    I wasn’t a doctor and didn’t know my way well around medicine, so I wouldn’t be of much help even if I go . So as to not trouble everyone, staying here in a safe place would be wise .  

    It was sound logic in my head . But I can’t do that . That just wouldn’t be me .
    I finally realised that I wasn’t meant to live rationally .  

“…I see . ” 

    The moment Miss Bianca saw my face, she let out a bitter smile . Her mouth opened, perhaps trying to tell me to stay, but she soon bit down on her lips and gave a slight chuckle with lowered brows . Her awkward smile resembled that of her brother’s .  

“I thought you’d say that . ”

    She held me tight as her forehead rested on my shoulder .
    Her gentle fingers combed through my hair .  

“I would just be a hindrance there, so I won’t follow you . ” 

“Alright . ” 

“But please don’t push yourself . Depend on others around you before you try to do anything on your own, okay?” 

    She pressed her forehead against mine . Her kind eyes and gentle hands reminded me of that a mother’s . I knew she was worried about me, but it was a little ticklish and somewhat embarrassing .  

“I will . ” 

    When she saw me nodding with a timid smile, Miss Bianca relaxed her shoulders .
    She stroked my cheek, raised her face, and continued, ‘Speaking of which-‘ 

“Michael will be coming with you, so don’t hesitate to rely on him . ” 

“I-I’m in your care!” 

“Eh?” 

    When I looked towards the direction Miss Bianca was pointing at, Michael bowed his head vigorously . I was surprised, and an unintentional voice escaped my lips .  

“I hope—no, I promise to be of help as much as I can!”

“No—I mean, that’s fine, but… are you okay with this?” 

    It’d be great if he came along . We would definitely save more lives with his healing powers . But I couldn’t simply ask him to risk his life alongside me .  

“Of course . ” 

    Michael answered with a wide grin .  

“If I can save the lives of others, then there would be nothing else that could make me happier . ” 

    His soft, thin eyes were lit with the light of determination .  

    That’s right . He may look calm and collected, but he was the one who jumped headfirst out of his peaceful temple to help people here right now, in another country to boot .
    Even knowing this, the fact that I couldn’t ask for him to come with me was out of my own weakness . Making others decide on a matter of life and death for themselves is the same as running away . I just wasn’t ready to be responsible for his life .  

    If I really want to save as many people as I can, I should be lowering my head left and right without a second thought .  

“Then, I look forward to working with you…!” 

    Once I said that with a bashful voice, Michael happily nodded in reply .  

    Without fail, we’ll cure the people from this plague .
    And then we’ll go back to Nebel with everyone .  

    I swore in my heart .
    What’s wrong with being a little greedy? What’s wrong with wanting everything? I’ll protect everyone, and we’ll return home together . I will do anything to make that happen, no matter how far I have to go .
    I clenched my fists and made my decision .

“Marie! When you’re ready, get on the carriage first . ” 

    I heard Wolf calling from a distance .
    This was not the time to be lazing about .  

“Later, Miss Bianca . I’m very sorry for the rush, but we have to set off . ” 

“I understand . I’ll go back to Nebel first and wait for you there . ” 

“Very well… U-Um . If possible, I’d like to ask you for a favour . ” 

“What is it? I will do anything I can . ” 

“Can I leave Klaus in your care until you reach Nebel?” 

    When Miss Bianca heard my request, she opened her eyes wide in surprise .  

“I’m sure Georg has already made preparations for him to return home, but I’m still a little worried about his injuries since they were quite severe . If possible, I’d like him to go with you . ” 

    Klaus’ injuries won’t heal any time soon . Despite Michael’s efforts sealing up the wound, it would still take several days before he’ll be able to move freely .
    If possible, I would like him to rest properly back at home . But we’re talking about Klaushere .
    At the very least, I’d like him to rest and be fully treated for half a month so that he can return back to being my guard as soon as possible .  

“I want you to keep an eye on him so that he won’t follow me . I had wanted to talk to him before we left, but we don’t have much time, and I didn’t want to wake him up while he’s recuperating . ” 

“…Um, Marie?” 

    Miss Bianca hesitantly spoke .
    Is it really impossible after all? I mean, sure, it’s really difficult to stop a stubborn Klaus, but there’s no one else who can do this .  

    I tried to talk Miss Bianca into it, but it seemed like she didn’t want to after all .
    However, looking at Miss Bianca right now, her eyes oozed disgust rather than puzzlement . She paused for a moment before guiding my gaze behind me .  

“Of course, I would have dragged him feet first back home without you telling me… but there’s that . ” 

    Miss Bianca stated while tilting her head to the side, unlike her usual self .
    I didn’t know what she was looking at as there was only a tree in the direction we were facing . A tall tree that you could find anywhere .
    And there was someone hiding behind the trunk .  

“…Hm?”

    I thought I was seeing things and strained my eyes harder .
    Then, a certain someone’s unforgettable face came into view .  

    Unbelievable . I gawked at the person standing there in a terrible state as numerous questions popped up in my head .

    Why are you here? Why are you hiding? Why do you look like an abandoned puppy?
    I couldn’t take on the questions that kept flooding in one after another, and by this point, my mind had already turned into a puddle .  

    He looks like that one emote, huh?

    Silly thoughts consequently whizzed by .
