Chapter 378: The Return Of Her Powers
Kiev’s gaze briefly landed on Rafe and Callis, seated together in a secluded corner of the spectator area, away from the rest.
The couple seemed deeply engaged in conversation, their words inaudible to the Mederian Prince due to the distance. However, Kiev could notice the healer had cracked a joke, prompting Callis to burst into laughter.
A small smile graced Kiev’s lips as he observed the joy and affection between the couple. An instant longing to see Elis have the same laughter stirred within him, something he had yet to witness.
Though Kiev was now certain that she had begun to accept him slowly, the journey towards healing her from the past pain was still far ahead. He knew it would require time and patience to help Elis fully open her heart and find the same happiness he saw in Callis.
As Eric and Anna passed by, Kiev turned to the second-in-command knight, halting their steps.
"I’m going in for now. Callis and Rafe are still here to watch over Princess Anna," he informed.
"Understood. The training won’t last much longer, as it’s nearly noon. Feel free to take your leave," Eric replied.
"Please notify me if anything occurred," Kiev requested.
"No need to worry. I have everything under control," the second-in-command knight assured him.
Satisfied with Eric’s confidence, Kiev quietly departed the training grounds, his thoughts focused on Elis.
The remaining knights gathered in the centre of the training area.
