âWhat were you doing Princess Eleanor?â
âY-Your temperature! I-I was trying to measure your temperature by putting our foreheads together!â
As she stood up, Eleanor, who had a noticeable bump on the back of her head, turned bright red.
Seletina couldnât help but giggle at the princessâ strange behavior.
âGood grief! Please do not wake up so randomly again! Do you know just how worried I was?â
âI apologize, Your Highness⊠However, I kept my vow.â
âCan you really call that keeping a vow?! You were one foot in the grave! You didnât wake up for three whole days!â
Eleanor muttered while puffing up her cheeks, but she was unable to disguise her happiness.
â⊠Haha. Youâre always so energetic, Princess Eleanor.â
âOf course I am! My brothers donât stop pointing out that itâs my best qualityâŠâ
âI think that is fantastic. Itâs perfect for you.â
âWas that a compliment?â
âNaturally.â
Seletina smiled as one of the royal maids assisted her in getting dressed.
Given that she hadnât rushed in despite all the commotion, Elita was likely sleeping in the adjacent room.
âThat aside, how are you feeling? After all, you slept for three whole daysâŠâ
âThe thing is I feel amazing. Itâs like Iâve grown wings.â
âDonât lie. Like that can happen so easily.â
âHm, then please watch.â
âWhat?â
Seletina, clothed in a violet gown, snatched up Elyutinias, which had been placed on a nearby bench, after getting ready.
She then took it out of the scabbard, exposing its bewitching blade. Seletina swung it around to get a feel of it. Despite not having held it for three days, she felt a unique familiarity with it.
âPerfect.â
Seletina said, looking at the swordâs blade as it shone underneath the sunâs rays. It was as though she was looking at her beloved child.
After that, Seletina picked a random apple from the fruit bowl on the table by the bed and threw it into the air. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She felt the warm air fill her lungs. An unbreakable concentration.
Even an amateur like Eleanor was able to feel it. Eleanor had no idea what Seletina was about to do, but the intensity she exuded made Eleanor shudder.
Seletinaâs breath stopped and her eyelids slowly opened as the apple rose to its highest point and began to fall. She tightly gripped her scabbard.
The following moment, a dozen flashes of light burst forth before Seletinaâs eyes. However, those were not mere flashes of light. Each one was caused by a swing of Seletinaâs sword.
Eleanor couldnât comprehend what had just happened.
It appeared as though she had skipped a few frames. Before Eleanor could adapt, the apple had been cut into eight pieces as Seletinaâs body swayed sideways.

The apple slices continued to fall through the air, as if they had a will of their own, they progressively landed and formed a perfect line on Elyutiniasâs blade. It was a truly divine work. Even a first-rate performer would find it nigh impossible to imitate.
It was hard to imagine that a girl whoâd slept for three days straight had been able to pull something like this off.
âSee?â Seletina said in a teasing manner.
âA-Amazing⊠Spectacular!!!â Eleanor exclaimed, beginning to clap.
It was a spectacular round of applause. Even the maid who was standing to the side and observing started to applaud upon seeing it.
Seletina smiled at the unexpected applause and bowed as a performer would by placing her hands on her chest.
âT-Thank you.â
âYouâre amazing, Lady Seletina! Youâre a spectacular person! Amazing! Simply amazing, amazing, amazing!!!â
Eleanor was just like a child.
Seletina felt as though she were watching her daughter as Eleanorâs eyes lit up with excitement. Seletina somehow suppressed the urge to pat Eleanor on the head.
âI suppose it wonât be a problem for me to move around now that Iâve shown that Iâm in good health. Iâd like to see my family if possibleâŠâ
âThatâs right! I was so preoccupied with you waking up, Lady Seletina, that I completely forgot about that! I apologize⊠B-But thereâs no need to worry. Everyone is in good health!â
âFrom what I can recall, I remember my mother being gravely woundedâŠâ
âShe was hanging on a thread for a time, however sheâs currently stable. The doctors said sheâd recover with a good amount of rest.â
âThank godâŠ1â
Seletina said, feeling as if a heavy burden had been lifted off of her shoulders.
Iâm glad that mother is okay. I want to see her face as soon as possible.
Seletina thought to herself.
That asideâŠ
There was still one question that plagued Seletinaâs mind.
That aside⊠Who in the world defeated the Defiler of Pride and Wisdom?
Seletina and Melia had both lost, and at the time, there was no one more powerful than them in the hall.
Did reinforcements come?
âPrincess Eleanor. Would you please tell me what happened after I passed out? Who in the world defeated that Demon?â

An enormous shadow suddenly swept over Seletina as she spoke.
Seletina turned around to find a fierce knight standing before her, wearing full, jet-black armor.
âThat was me. Lady Seletina, I believe this is our first encounter. Iâm happy to see that youâre in good health.â Loggins said with a heavy tone.
At last, the master and the apprentice finally met eye to eye. This marked Seletina and Logginsâ first meeting in this life.
