Under the dim candlelight, three people were seated at the long table in the Red Fortress restaurant.
Colin, Vera, and "future brother-in-law" Charles.
After much consideration, Vera decided to meet her brother. Although she now harbors resentment towards her foster father, she still has some affection for this brother.
However, after learning about Colin and Charles's plans, Vera, no longer in the mood to reminisce with her brother, began to worry about Colin's safety.
As Charles's identity still needed to remain secret, there were no other attendants in the restaurant, and Butler Emon served on the side personally.
Quietly after finishing their dinner, Emon brought three desserts.
But Vera is obviously not in the mood to enjoy desserts now, she lifted her head to look at Colin, and asked: "Colin, are you really unwilling to take me with you? I'm a mage, I can be very helpful on the battlefield."
