Chapter 49: 2nd in Command

**The New Mission Begins:**

The morning sun cast its golden rays over the bustling courtyard as Division 7 and 10 of the knights prepared for their new missions. Captain Elara and Captain Alistair were overseeing the final preparations, ensuring that each division was equipped and ready for their respective tasks.

**Assignment Details:**

**Captain Alistair:** Division 7 will be heading to Vactury Village, the hometown of Vice Captain Ursa. Reports indicate a surge in mysterious monster activities threatening the villagers. We need to investigate and neutralize the threat.

**Captain Elara:** Division 10, you'll be going to Malory Village, a poor village in need of assistance. Your mission is to provide support and help improve their situation.

Among the knights, there was an air of anticipation mixed with determination. Synoh now stood as the second in command of Division 10, a role that carried both responsibility and respect. Meanwhile, Vice Captain Ursa seemed a bit reserved, sticking close to Lux and Jack as they rode their horses toward Vactury Village.

As they journeyed, Captain Elara's demeanor seemed slightly embarrassed, catching Synoh's attention. He gave her a quizzical look, prompting her to break the silence with a playful remark.

**Captain Elara:** Synoh, remember what I mentioned before we faced the bandits? (she smirks) You know, about whether you think I can get married?

Synoh chuckled softly, recalling their earlier conversation.

**Synoh:** (nodding) I remember that. So, Captain Elara, I still haven't given you my answer, have I?

Captain Elara grinned mischievously, enjoying the banter.

**Captain Elara:** (teasingly) Come on, 2nd in Command. Enlighten me. What do you think?

Synoh chuckled again, shaking his head slightly.

**Synoh:** (smiling) It's only temporary, Captain. You know that.

Their lighthearted exchange brought a moment of levity amidst the seriousness of their mission. The camaraderie among the knights was evident as they continued their journey, each division focused on their tasks ahead.
