On The Border

Regan and Rex had reached the border within four days with the Royal army. The journey usually lasted for at least five days without a night's sleep but they decided not to have much rest on the way.

With the war threatening to erupt any moment after five days, they couldn't really rest and had to reach the border as soon as possible.

"Keep your eyes on him always."

Regan said to Elias as he stared at Arthur who was leaving his horse on the grass to graze.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Elias said respectfully but Regan was not convinced and said

"The moment he makes any kind of weird movement, I want to know immediately, Elias, Do you understand? If you were not able to do this, then I will be disappointed."

Elias's head lowered in shame. He knew his master's words were because of how he was unable to protect Evelyn during the banquet.

His face was red because of the shame he felt but he still said firmly.

"I understand, Your Highness."
