Was that the case?
Cale didn�t think Lily was right, but just nodded his head and started to speak to Lily again because he had no way of knowing what was making Basen happy.

�I will cheer you on to achieve your dream of becoming a knight to protect the territory.�
�Thank you!�

Cale smiled while looking at the smile on Lily�s face.

�Heh, Basen will be the territory lord and with Lily taking control of the troops, it looks like I�ll just have to travel every so often to meet with his highness.�

It was a satisfying future for all three of them.

� Mm. Human, I feel like all three of you are misunderstanding something!

That was why he easily ignored Raon�s ramblings.

�Hmm?�

He then happened to make eye contact with two employees who were walking down the hall.
They seemed to be new as Cale had never met them before, and they jumped up in shock before bowing toward Cale and quickly walking past him.

��This reminds me of the past.�

He recalled how the employees had avoided him when he first opened his eyes as Cale. Cale, who didn�t mind such a situation, just smiled as the two whispered to each other as they walked past him because he was happy from being full and headed toward his room.

�Like the rumors� hero���

Their conversation did not manage to reach Cale�s ears. Instead, as Cale walked a bit farther down the empty hallway and stopped in front of his bedroom�
