He did not know how long she had been out there but he knew she needed to be taken back inside, quickly. All
thought of his mother’s actions vanished from his mind and guilt flooded his heart__how had he not noticed his
wife accompanying him out here? How could he leave her neglected?
Bounding quickly across the field, he made his way to her. As soon as he reached her, he shot the servants a
displeased look, blaming them for not doing their jobs. Without a word, he pulled a fur cloak out of Jesting’s
hands and draped it over her shoulders. His cold hands took hers attempting to warm her frozen fingers.
"What were you thinking?" he asked her.
Through chattering teeth, Sigrid replied, "That you need me."
Roland lowered his head and kissed her hands. "Forgivemy love, | have been blinded by anger. | should have
noticed you sooner."
"Its not too late." she whispered through a hoarse voice and coughed two times. Exhaustion swept through her
bones and she closed her eyes.
Roland carried her in his arms and walked her back to the castle.
Before Sigrid surrendered to darkness of sleep and cold, she heard the sound of the system in her mind.
[Congratulations host, you have acquired all of Roland Maximus's love and trust.
You have obtained the full loyalty and respect of all the red knights on the training grounds.
The lucky halo has been weakened even more by two percent. It has 18% strength left now.]
At that exact moment, in the Windrider house, the bed Emmah was sleeping on broke apart, as it collapsed, a
lamp was knocked over. She fell to the ground and her hand was sliced by the shards of the glass lamp.
She opened her mouth to scream but somehow, a bug that had been flying around entered her mouth and got
stuck in her throat.
Emmah stumbled out the bedroom to seek for help, gasping for air and making guttural sounds. She startled a
maid that was carrying a chamber pot. The contents of the chamber pot ended up all over Emmah.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDue to the shock, she fainted with her mouth wide open. The bug went down her throat and settled in her
stomach.
At the stime, one of prminister Windrider’s mines experienced misfortune. An earthquake caused the
mine to collapse, trapping several men underground, including Desire Windrider, the prminister's sixth son
who was inspecting the mine.
Because of his identity, everyone panicked, and two of the miners run to inform the newly renovated and
renamed constables office that was focused on crprevention.
Meanwhile, on the roof of the royal castle, Cosmos was watching as everyone returned to the castle. His eyes
were focused on Sigrid and Roland.
A woman's figure appeared next to Cosmos and she also watched Roland and Sigrid.
"When you chose her as a candidate for this mission, | had doubts but she has proven to be a hurricane. The last
candidate did not even last a month in the marriage after Emmah returned but she has gained the love of the
crown prince and she is almost at the finish line with the halo."
Cosmos laughed and added, "Not to forget all the noble houses she has eliminated and the queen that she has
brought down without bringing attention to herself. Indeed, it takes a villain to bring down a villain not a heroine
with no goals or ambition."
"Are you trying to tell| told you so?" The woman asked.
"I would never say it." he answered. "But | am thinking it."
