Chapter 120: Characters (1)
The arrogant Lord Robain gazed at the dawn over the mountains of Rotenheim.
The sunlight filtering through the morning air seemed to symbolize a kind of hope.
Feeling as though he had reached a turning point in his life, which until now had been like turbulent waves, he lowered his bloodstained sword for a moment and took a deep breath.
The monsters had been exterminated, the family crisis was over, and life would go on.
In the end, all he held in his hand was a bloodied sword and a bit of honor. He wondered where his true happiness lay in that life.
The young and arrogant noble finally understood.
Whenever he wished to rest from his journey through life, that humble girl who always patted his back with a steady gaze would return to his mind.
Walking unsteadily with his wounded body among the blood-soaked corpses of monsters, the arrogance that once reached the heavens faded away.
And at the end of that long, dark trial, he wandered, searching for the small woman he had wanted to hold in his arms.
