The grip of my hand that was holding the bow loosened, and the weapon slid down. Suddenly, the sll of blood rushed into my nose. I was feeling nauseated everywhere as the sky abruptly turned yellow. Trees seed to be pouring down this way, and Henry's cries grew farther and closer alternately.

The next mont, the force that besieged broke.

A sense of reality flooded my head.

It seed that the effect of the dicine suddenly disappeared in an instant. The muscles in my limbs, which were used beyond their original abilities, complained of pain. They scread that they could no longer hold the weapon. I could feel the blow falling down towards my body the mont I couldn't co to my senses by shaking my head at the onslaught of pain.

As Henry struck in the side with an axe, I was flung away with a cough.

"Unngh, ah…"

I crawled on the floor just like Roberta did a while ago. What was I doing? What the hell was I thinking when I was doing this until just now…?

A rough hand turned upside down.

A shadow fell over my body. With his back to the sun, Henry raised his axe. I was crying and yelling at him. In that brief mont, I shivered and searched around for the quiver that had fallen to the floor. I gripped the arrow with an immobile hand. The fear that the red wine had taken away rushed over in an instant.

"Uh, heuk…"

The axe was swung wide, and I shut my eyes tight. I was prepared for my head to split in two. There was no strength left to dilute the fear by deliberately thinking lightly.

"Huek—"

In conclusion, my head wasn't split in two.

Instead, sothing hot poured down on . I couldn't even open my eyes, trembling and holding onto the arrow. Then, sothing heavy fell down slowly as if it were overtaking . The arrow pierced through sothing before it got caught on sothing hard and broke.

"Heuu, ah, ugnn…"

I quivered and let out a weeping groan. The next mont, soone lifted the man's body that was covering , who was still trembling.

"I told you."

It was a soft and beautiful voice.

The day when the sun rises the longest was suitable for the sumr solstice. The sweat that ca out due to the scorching sun and the cold sweat that had gushed out from fear interlaced. The owner of the voice removed the broken arrow from my hand.

Finally, I opened my eyes gradually.

I didn't know, but I was crying. I was weeping and wailing. As Raniero ca closer to my chest, which went up and down in a terribly irregular way, I could feel his weight on my body.

He folded his eyes gracefully and smiled.

"I told you, my Empress."

Intertwining our hands together, he kissed my cheek. He didn't seem to care at all that my body was tainted with blood. His hunting shirt, which had been pure white until then as if it hadn't been stained with any dirt, began to turn scarlet slowly.

"You're not going to die."

The intense pain that rushed through my body was still severe. I couldn't think of anything rational as the pain seed to make lose my mind at any mont.

"Aheuk, heuu…"

"Does it hurt? Oh, right… It's that kind of dicine. Yes."

Raniero kissed my forehead slowly as if to appease a complaining child.

"It's such a drug. It transcends the limits of the physical abilities given at birth, increases the sense of elevation, and dissipates fear. Right, you were like that for a while. That's what I gave you last night."

While I was feeling sick, as though I was going to die soon, Raniero seed relaxed. His cold lips slowly descended from my forehead to my eyelids, to my cheekbones, and then to my cheeks.

"You beca for a while. However, if the body is overloaded, the pain will co, and the dicine will lose its effect in an instant. Therefore, it couldn't be comrcialized for the knight service to use. Besides, it's very addictive and makes you lethargic for a while…"

Opening his mouth wide, he bit my cheek lightly as though playing with a child. He then raised his upper body up and pulled out a small vial from under his sleeve.

dicine, dicine again…

I gazed up at him in horror. Now, I didn't want to take the dicine he gave .

"You don't have to look at like that."

Raniero mumbled very sweetly.

"It's just a pain reliever."

As though to prove it, he poured the dicine into his mouth first before kissing .

As if to bless Actilla's godson, the sunlight was pouring down on his back, who was comforting . The bitter powdery dicine entered my mouth at once, and I coughed a little. After a while, the pain started to subside. I took a long breath and exhaled, and only then could I properly look up at his beautiful face. Raniero ruffled my hair and laughed pleasantly.

"Thanks to you, I had a good ti. Well, look at the things you've hunted yourself."

Sylvia was still lying on the floor, with the bodies of Henry and Roberta stacked next to her. It felt like blood was draining from my body. However, Raniero seed to be enjoying himself.

"Now, you are also the people of Actilus. Tonight's banquet will be for you, who have been reborn…"
