Lady Lenora could tell that the plan they were carrying out also took quite a toll on the Crown Prince who never really showed anything. Even now, she could only guess it through what he just said.

"I'm not the type to allow such a thing to happen, Lady Lenora," he said, sounding quite confident. "I will make sure that nothing goes to waste - the risk you take or the wound that Rigor had to endure. Don't worry."
