I became the sick nobelman

Chapter 87 - Entrance! (1)

Ruel felt something falling behind him.

Whoosh!

Cassion's dagger was lodged into the wall in the corner of the carriage.

Blood dripped down.

"...Cassion."

Ruel frowned, taking off the cloth that covered his face.

Then he covered Leo's eyes before straightening his tousled hair.

"The carriage is dirty."

"Aris will clean it up in a minute."

"What about the body?"

Instead of answering, Cassion covered himself once more with a cloth and stabbed a dagger behind him.

The pure white cloth was stained red.

Cassion said naturally.

"Ah, did I tell you that there wasn't only one person in the carriage?"

"No."

"Don't worry, my men will take care of the bodies."

"...you knew?"

"I didn't want to bother you."

"That's why you kept encouraging me to sleep?"

Cassion smiled undisturbed.

"There's that, but it's also what Ruel-nim needs, isn't it? I will call Aris for a moment."

Knock. Knock.

The carriage stopped when Cassion knocked on the carriage wall.

Immediately, Ganien clung to the carriage door and asked, "What's the matter?"

Cassion went down the carriage and explained the present situation to Ganien, and soon Aris came into the carriage.

—Aris...

Leo looked at Aris with a tearful face.

It didn't get on Ruel's clothes, but the carriage walls were covered with blood.

"...I'll clean it up in a minute."

Aris quickly recited a spell.

Cassion spoke to Aris, who chanted the spell.

"Listen as you do, Aris. The enemy sent an assassin. I cannot leave Ruel's side, so watch out for any more possible assassins."

"I'll be careful."

Ruel inhaled Breath.

A smooth journey seemed to be a word that didn't fit him.

"Can you catch them?"

At Ruel's words, Cassion shook his head.

"They're not half-hearted. A forced confession won't work and their tongue is firm. I'd rather just kill them. Even if their arms are cut off, they will bite Ruel's neck with their teeth."

"...okay."

Ruel calmed Leo while watching Aris use magic.

"Ah, how irritating!"

Noah stopped peeling the vegetables and threw them aside.

All the knights are eating, but why is it that only he can't eat?

Rustle.

Feeling murderous intent, Noah instinctively looked back.

It was Aris.
