I turned my gaze toward Leon, “I can’t leave him here at the moment.”
I would not leave him here and now; the way Leon looked at me was somewhat gentle.
“Go, Master,”
Leon’s position did not allow him to say “don’t go”.
Could I give up my role and go to see Uncle Will?
I would like to see him one last time. Even if he didn’t respond to me anymore, I wanted to see him…
“I will come back to get you, I promise.”
I said, looking straight into Leon’s eyes.
“I’ll be waiting.”
“…After I fulfill Kushana’s wish.”

Kushana answered as if to contradict my words.
Why were they being so nice to me? I did not deserve that much…
I would never think that I underestimate myself. I think I was quite strong among the young ladies. I studied hard and honed my swordsmanship.
However, I doubt that I would have the qualities to be treated kindly by the Queen of the Woods or the Princes of a country.
“…What good is there in me?”
I muttered in a small voice so that no one would hear me.
“Let’s go home together.”
I replied with a short “yes” to Duke-sama’s words.
We didn’t have to say goodbye to Grandfather and the others, did we? I would be back soon.
I still had a lot to do in Ravaal.
“Sheena, get the horses ready.”
At Kushana’s words, Sheena bowed her head, “Yes,” and left.
“I will ride back to Rai.”
“It’s a long way from here to Duelkis Kingdom, I don’t think the Lion has the endurance to make it that far.”
“Well, Alicia has given him magical powers, so I think he can go quite a distance.”
To Kushana, Duke-sama replied on my behalf!
Indeed! Rai was no ordinary Lion.
He would be the strongest Lion, considering that he was able to carry me to this forest with enough strength to spare.
When I thought about it, I still felt like magic was cheating. Well, but I would use what I can.
Rai came toward me and rubbed his head against my feet.
How adorable. It was a blessing to have the majestic Lion be so friendly.
“…I think I’ll leave Rai behind.”
I patted Rai and thought for a while before speaking.

“He will protect the Princes here instead of me.”
Rai understood what I was suggesting, and without defiance, he slowly left me, walking towards Victor.
I assumed it was because he was sure I would come back to see him again.
Rai and I were good friends. We trusted each other, and we could depend on each other.
“Are you sure?”
Leon looked surprised, to which I replied, “Of course”.
“It’s ready.”
With Sheena’s voice, a magnificent horse appeared.
What a gallant horse! Isn’t this horse the best horse in this forest?
“Let’s go!”
While I was being impressed by the horse, Duke-sama had somehow managed to lift me up and mount me.
We were riding together again… I thought I could get used to it, but I still couldn’t.
“Alicia, it’s important to be honest.”
The moment Kushana finished telling me that, the horse started running.
