Book 6: Chapter 1
On Le Lucé hill
Empire Year 851, 22nd May—
It was a day later than expected when the First Imperial Army linked up with them on the nearby Le Lucé hill.
A tent was set up on the flat, green ground to conduct a conference. Even though it was daytime, it was quite dim due to the fog.
From time to time, there would be a strong breeze, causing the grass to dance along with the wind. While the altitude was not too low, standing on the mountaintop would still get your hair messy.
The black-haired youth— Regis Auric brushed aside the hair covering his eyes due to the strong wind and looked to the side.
It was the girl who accompanied him on the stroll. Even though it was dim, her beautiful hair looked as if it was shining, which made her conspicuous. Her crimson hair was lifted up by her white and smooth finger.
