TWISTED FATE OF THE KNIGHT

Chapter 110: Secret Meeting

While waiting for him, piniga piga ko ang pang ibabaw na damit ko para matuyo kaagad, fortunately, makapal ang suot kung panloob na shirt so I could easily dry my vest, and polo.

"Achoo!"

I sneeze while looking at the lake na ngayon ayoko nang lumapit o ibabad ang mga paa ko dahil baka may humila sa akin ulit. I am already in debt with the Marquis, and I don't know how to pay for it.

"Are you okay?"

Napalingon ako sa likod ko, "Yes," I answered Ronan who was just arrived, and holding some small woods and branches as he put down.

"Let me dry you,"

"You can?"

I asked him wondering as I looked at him, "Yes, stay still," He said as he chants some spell and after a few minutes, I am fully dry.

"Woah! How did you do that?!"

"My mana has a water affinity so I can control water,"

"Why didn't you do it a while ago?"

"My mana drained when we were in the water that I can't do it immediately but not that fully drained so I just need a little rest to regain for me to drain myself and you,"

"Ah, right. My mana is drained si-Achoo!"

"Wait for a minute, I'll just fire the woods,"

He said as he started to burn the wood with the rock that he pick it up somewhere since hindi ko alam kung saan galing iyon.

"Ahm, Marquis Alfinos can you also dry my clothes?"

I asked him since nilalamig talaga ako kahit na naaarawan ako sa pwesto ko pero kulang ang araw.

"Yes, but I can't right now since my mana is low,"

He said na parang medyo nahiya siyang sabihin sa akin based on his expression that looks sorry for me.

"It's okay," I answered while smiling since I am not forcing him or anything since I am grateful that he dries me up.

"Here, you can wear for a while,"

He covers me with his cloak which is very familiar to me, it was the white cloak that I saw from the other day na akala ko ay multo.

"This cloak is familiar,"

I said, at bigla siyang napahinto na papalayo sa akin no'ng nagsalita ako bago siya lumingon sa akin.

"Are you the one I bumped the other day?"

"...yes,"

He answered while he can't look at eyes as if he was being scolded by me.

"I thought it was an intruder or something but it was only you. Anyways, may I asked if why are you here when I thought you were sent away from the capital?"

I asked him and he remains silent for a few seconds as he opens his mouth.

"Well, many things happened so I am currently under Ian's protection for a while,"

"Protection? Why? Did you do something?!"

I said with curiosity since he doesn't need any protection if he has a title, and especially that he also has royal blood.

"I'm sorry but I can't tell you,"

"Why?"

I asked kahit na alam kung hindi ko na dapat alamin pa pero hindi ko mapigilan ang sarili ko since Ian is involved so I think I can learn something at least one or two.
