"Hestia!"

As soon as I entered the hospital room, the first thing I saw was Hestia trying to get up from her bed.

I was startled and tried to stop her.

"Why are you getting up? Just lie down, there's no need to push yourself."

"No, I'm fine. I just feel a bit heavy because I've been lying down for so long."

"still."

I wasn't at ease, having witnessed Neon Cashmere pierce Hestia's vital point head-on.

I looked at Hestia with concern and she smiled brightly.

"I know my condition best. Don't worry."

"Well then that's fortunate, but..."

"Rather, I should be worrying about you, young lady... I have nothing to say in this situation. I am not qualified to be your attending physician."

Hestia made a bitter expression. She must have been the one in charge of this ward. She was the family's doctor.

She was the one who commanded all the doctors in the castle.

"......I really don't have the face to face with anyone. I can't even take responsibility for my own body, so how can I take responsibility for someone else's body?"

"Don't blame yourself, Hestia. You know very well that there's no need to."

I quickly consoled her in her anxiety. I felt bad that she might really leave the family.

Everyone was astonished at her dark complexion. Rosaria stepped forward to interrupt me.

"Yes, Hestia. I don't think you need to blame yourself so much. Besides, you weren't following me as an escort."

"......That's right. We were the escorts. And Hestia helped us a lot. We were the first to notice the identity of Neon Cashmere when it appeared in the neutral zone."

Paymon nodded and said. He seemed taken aback by Hestia's unnecessarily intimidating appearance.

"Thanks to that, we learned that the Cashmere family was also involved, and you, Lord, were able to make a quick decision."

"Would that really be so, Bassad?"

"Of course. If you hadn't noticed the formless sword, the results would have been very different."

It seemed like he had heard everything that was going on while he was in the ward.

I gave him a look of vehement agreement.

Hestia's expression became subtle, and she soon covered her face with both hands.

"Then I'm really glad."

"So don't blame yourself, Hestia. It ended up being really good, didn't it?"

The southern territory has expanded to a vast extent.

With half of the continent now under the control of Astrophell, no family will dare to oppose them.

Moreover, now that the Cashmere family has been destroyed, the family that is being mentioned as the next head of the family is none other than the Iselrod family.

With Uncle Dante as a strong ally and reconciliation with the North, it was clear that this would be the most peaceful era since the beginning of history.

Of course, that was if the marriage happened.

Hestia smiled faintly, feeling a little more at ease thanks to the comfort from many people.
