In truth, I could have remained a kitten forever, but that would have been unnatural. Those observing it would inevitably wonder why it wasn’t growing. Therefore, each time the cat appeared, it had to grow a little bit more.

Even the guards stationed at the Royal Class garrison had become familiar with me.
“It’s quite something. I wonder how it sneaks in and follows us around.”
Indeed, this couldn’t continue until the war ended. As the guard mentioned, this army wasn’t stationed in a fixed location, and it was involved in battles where countless soldiers died.

Quite some time had passed since the pacification of Serandia. Naturally, the atmosphere within the Royal Class garrison had become quite subdued.

Delphine Izadra, like Ludwig, had been a kind and good person. According to Sarkegar’s report, she had put herself at risk and died trying to save Scarlett and Ludwig when they were in danger.
While any death was tragic, Delphine’s death was particularly devastating.
