Early the next morning, the group set off again, this time accompanied by a downcast young knight, bound in ropes.
In contrast to his bravery the day before, now the young knight looked utterly dejected, as if he had lost the will to live, facing the end of the world.
"Is this the road to Calcas?"
"Yes... sir..."
Confronted by Duanmu Huai's question, the young knight no longer resisted at all.
"Well then, lead the way."
"Yes......."
Watching the dispirited young knight leading the way, Elisa was bewildered.
"That's odd, why has he suddenly become so obedient? I thought he'd keep arguing with Sir Black Knight."
"Hahaha, this is because......."
Upon hearing Elisa's question, the Elf Scout laughed heartily, and began to explain with an air of relishing the spectacle.
