The carriage parked in the shade of a large tree just a little further from the ranger’s hut. Inside it were the Samarelli father and son, the noble lady from Ruslan Kingdom, and her retinue.

It seemed the lady had something to discuss with Vio, so in the end, they decided to go to the hunter’s hut.

They finally reached their destination in the evening. Everyone was vigilant in case they got ambushed again, but there were no signs of life around the hut, and the fireplace was cold and covered with dust.

Legion and Rille took care of the preparations, while Vio headed to the lady’s carriage with Jill. As she was a visitor from another country, Vio felt that he should treat her politely, even though he was unfamiliar with her. Especially if her condition worsened because of the bandits they ran into during the day.

They arrived just as the lady got off her carriage with the help of her servants. She was a beautiful girl with a slightly cold demeanor, clad in a bright green dress.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Violant Lesserhain. I apologize for getting you involved earlier. My Lady, if you don’t mind, may I ask your name?”

The lady’s auburn eyes bore into him as she curtseyed and politely replied, “I am Liselotte Bianca, daughter of a count. I’m grateful for your help in getting our carriage back on the road. So there’s no need to apologize. The truth is, I’m not feeling really well…”

“That’s not good. Please, let’s head inside.”

Vio extended his left hand, and Liselotte put her slender hand in his.

“I shall prepare a chair at once,” Jill said. As Vio watched him hurry to prepare, he led Liselotte into the hut.

The hunter’s hut had no furniture inside since it was only used during autumn. So the servants brought in rugs, making simple arrangements for the night.

Commoners would sleep here with their bag as the pillow and their cloak as the blanket, so Vio had it a lot more comfortable than them.

The fireplace was lit, and two chairs were placed in front of it.

After escorting Liselotte in and asking Dawn to check on her condition, Vio left her for a while. He was worried about Yuan, who was shivering after getting drenched by the rain.

“Are you alright, Yuan? Come here. I’ll get rid of the water.”

“…?”

Yuan didn’t seem to understand Vio’s words. Though he looked dubious, he still obediently came closer. Vio touched Yuan’s hair and wet cloak and muttered a spell, “Heed my wish. O’ gentle spring breeze. Blow thy wind!”

At that moment, the water got blown away from Yuan’s hair and clothes.

Yuan’s green eyes sparkled in surprise. “Wow, amazing! I’m all dry!”

Vio chuckled. “You’ll be able to do it too, if you practice. Rille, do we have a blanket? Children can easily catch a cold, so we need to keep him warm.”

“I will bring one right away.”

As Rille headed to the carriage, Dawn took her place. “Thank you, Lord Vio. Go on, Yuan. You haven’t thanked him yet, right?”

“Ah, I’m sorry! Thank you very much.” Yuan bowed, smiling bashfully.

“I’ll dry you too, Dawn. This magic seems to be difficult without practice. I taught the people in my mansion, but right now, only I can use it. The trick is to reduce the amount of magic power.”

“Thank you. I will practice it too.”

After Vio used the spell on Dawn, he was really impressed and repeatedly praised Vio’s ability.

At that moment, Legion walked up to them. “Lord Violant, I’ve finished carrying the luggage. Ah, that magic! Amazing, you can use it on other people as well? If I were to use it, I’m afraid that this place is going to turn into a bloody disaster.”

“It’s easy once you get used to it. You can avoid magic at close range, so I’m sure you’ll master it in no time.” Vio paused. “Come on, Legi. Bend down.”

Legion’s hair was short, so it was a little too far away from Vio’s reach. Once Legion bent down, Vio reached for his head, touched his rain cloak, and used the magic. “See. It’s easy, right?” Vio beamed.

For some reason, Legion’s face reddened and he moved away from Vio. “T-t-t-t-t-thank you very much!” He then ran out of the hut.

Vio gaped. “Eh, wait… I just dried him up, but why is he going out…” He cocked his head slightly. “Does he like getting wet?”

“He’s a strange one, alright,” Dawn commented. He and Yuan both looked surprised as well.

Vio heard someone burst into laughter. He turned his head and saw that it was Cheval, dressed as a servant. Cheval cleared his throat and quickly looked away.

Vio turned back to Dawn. “Dawn, how is the lady?”

“Once she takes the painkiller I prescribed earlier and rests a while, she’ll get better soon.”

“What a relief. After reaching Degas town, there should be a good inn…” But it wasn’t like they could leave right away, so Vio decided to switch his focus. “Leave the meal preparations to Rille. You two should also get some rest. I’ll go talk to the lady.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“Yes!”

After leaving the Samarelli father and son, Vio returned to the fireplace. He sat in one of the chairs and faced Liselotte. “I’m sorry to keep you waiting, Miss Liselotte. I heard you have something to discuss with me?”

“Yes… I want to ask you about this.” Liselotte lifted a hand and showed an amulet of Sophie, the Goddess of Wisdom.
