�I still had to keep my promise.�

Basen listened to Cale�s emotionless response and stared at him before clenching onto the box with the fountain pen and starting to speak.

�I will study very hard. I will work for this territory�s administration and development.�

�Good, good.�

�You have to be the next Count, so it will be great for you to study administration.�

It was a great mindset in Cale�s opinion. Cale started to smile while Basen hesitated for a moment before adding on.

�I will not do anything that will trouble you.�

�What do you mean?�

�Nothing, don�t worry about it.�

Basen did not say anything else after that. Cale looked toward Basen with curiosity before eventually turning away to look at his youngest sister, Lily Henituse.

The expression on this little 7-year-old�s face was oddly determined.

�Now what?�

�Eldest brother.�

�Lily.�

�I will become strong enough to lead our knight�s brigade and protect our territory. I will protect everyone.�

�Oh, I will be cheering you on.�

Basen with administration and Lily with the knights. The two of them will make the territory run properly. How great would this be for Cale? Cale caressed Lily�s head with a satisfied expression.

�You will make an awesome knight.�

�Thank you. I will make it so nobody has to get hurt.�

�Good, good.�

Cale stopped caressing her head and started to walk.

�I need to go get some rest now.�

�Hyung-nim, please rest well.�

�You must rest well in order to get better!� JrNovels.com
