The next day, the people are nosy again because the fort opened for the second time.

Eugene changes his clothes into a knight uniform and walks out of the room, receiving countless gazes, and being surrounded by the servants' whispers. They all knew that it was supposed to be the eldest young master who should take part in the war but before the sun rise, the Marquis immediately gathered his troops, ready to leave in a hurry.

Though they are glad that the eldest master would have not joined the battle.

However, Seeing Eugene made them throw a pitiful look at the second master who is the one that is enlisted for volunteers. Just what is the difference between volunteers and sacrifice? War is a dangerous place and either you go back injured or dead.

They are thinking that the second master is being put to death.

"Father."

Marquis Shradinza glance at his son and nodded. Euric was given a sleeping medicine, though he is aware that his son will get angry once he wakes up, still, he is this kind of selfish man. His eldest son is the only one suitable to inherit his position, he can't endanger his eldest because that is when opposition will exist. If his son is the one to join the war and got heavily injured, Eugene will be pushed to be his successor by their relatives.

He can't let that happen.

His second son is not suitable to take over his position.

Mounting his horse, Eugene waited for his father's order. The servants are already lining up, his little sister, and Eullian are still sleeping and his brother Euric was given medicine.

Only his mother stood there looking at them, dazed.

His father wave his hand and stood in front of his mother, bowing and saying, "For the glory of the Shradinza Household."

The soldiers raise their swords and shouted.

"FOR THE GLORY OF THE SHRADINZA HOUSEHOLD!"

Marchioness Celisha couldn't hold back her tears and hugged her husband, expressing her worries. After that, she pulls out an embroidered handkerchief and places it on her husband's hand wishing for his and his army's safe return.

Eugene averted his gaze.

He's not expecting his mother to give him something. Now that her beloved son stays with her, her only worries would be her husband.

"Eugene."

Eugene flinch and lowered his head: "What is it, Mother?"

Marchioness Celisha wipes her tears, "Mother, Mother is thankful to you. So, Mother hopes for your safe return too. After the war ends, Mother will make it up to you."

Euegen's eyes turn cold, "I don't need it."

"Y-You---"

Marquis Shradinza held his wife and shook his head.

"We'll be leaving. I told Simon and Raphael to stand by in case Euric wake-up and go mad. Calm him down and explain, don't make him blame himself."

Marchioness Celisha sighed and nodded.

The army of the Shradinza family march away, the rest of the Del Viltaria was led by Casimin, and the half of the battalion of Karsten was brought by Kaizer. Eugene is sitting on the horse with a cold expression looks so majestic. The people who are people couldn't help but take a second look and whispers around. Some also found out that it was not the eldest who participate but the second son which confuse them.

The royal army led by the second prince will depart tomorrow.

Count Rozans who heard the news that his son's friend join the war got nervous and called his wife, telling her not to let their son hear about Eugene's departure. Their eldest son also join the war and he departed with the army of the grand duke's son. No one knows how long will this war last so they are hoping for the soldiers' safety.
