Chapter 66
The Last Day of the Forest Search
“Are you sure, Lady Claire?”
“Yes. I doubt staying any longer in this forest will be much good. We should withdraw before everyone grows too tired to walk.”
“Yes, that is true, but…”
Sebastian had a harsh expression as he listened to Ms. Claire’s decision.
No, it wasn’t just Sebastian. Phillip and the guards and Ms. Lyra also looked deeply troubled.
But there was a reason that Sebastian and Ms. Lyra, who had initially been against coming here, had such expressions.
It was because they had all heard what Ms. Claire and I had talked about while I was on guard duty.
While Ms. Claire didn’t know it, I think she might have sensed something.
As for me, I just kept my mouth shut.
It seemed that the way it had spread was that Phillip had told the other guards, and then Johanna had told Ms. Lyra.
When resting in the tent, and as people changed shifts, they would ask me if it was true that Ms. Claire was troubled over it, and I didn’t know how to respond.
