� I knew you were just pretending not to know. That�s why you helped me shelter those mages from the Whipper Kingdom and with the Naval base.

Cale did not react to Alberu�s accusations. Alberu, who seemed like he didn�t expect a reaction, immediately asked back.

� Then what do you think we need to do about this?

�Miss Rosalyn will meet with her younger brother.�

� I guess she knows this information as well.

�She is my friend.�

Alberu scoffed at Cale�s answer before continuing to speak.

� You know that maintaining this secret is the most important thing, right?

�That is why I didn�t even tell you until now, your highness.�

Seeing Cale�s sly smile made Alberu feel like there was no worse expression in the world than Cale�s smile as he quickly ended the call.

� Then see you next time.

�Any time, your highness.�

The video communication came to an end.

***

A carriage with the Henituse family�s golden turtle crest passed through the Henituse Castle and headed for the estate behind it.

�It really feels like a festival is coming up.�

Cale nodded at Choi Han�s statement before looking out the carriage window. The entire castle was in the process of being decorated, and very lively.

Even the entrance of the castle that was usually quiet was booming with a long line of people.

�I have never seen so many people outside the castle like this.�

�He�s right! Me neither!�

Cale could see that Choi Han was just as excited as Raon, On, and Hong. This was probably Choi Han�s first real festival as well.

�It�s my first time too! I want to stand in line too!�

Cale smiled at Hong�s comment as he looked out the window and patted Hong�s small head.

The Henituse territory�s festival had many special competitions. JrNovels.com
