Chapter 62 Oath

Today was such an exciting day with soith the steareat dinner of black pepper steak and fried eggs without any li and Anna had to pat their bloated bellies while Nana, chewing on the last piece of meat, was still full of vitality In addition to the dinner, he had asked the maid to prepare and deliver a stew out of softporcelain dish to Nightingale Once Nightingale and Wendy woke up, they could immediately eat hot food

After dinner, the next step was to arrange rooms for everyone Fortunately, the lords of Border Town loved exquisiteness and grandeur Even though this s, as an early security point, the castle was still built to the standards of a medium sized town Thanks to this, Roland now had a nine hundred squareatchtowers and arroers in the forodas in the four corners of the castle He also possessed his own vestibule and back garden

Roland arranged the roo while the room next door went to Wendy after her rehabilitation When Roland saw Nana walk into Anna’s rooar stick in her hand, he could not help but shake his head in amusement

Back at his office, Roland poured hiood until the first deviation He had thought that with the help of Nightingale, he would have gotten a batch of neitches, getting a boost in science and technology and upgrading agriculture etc, but he had never expected that the leader of the Witch Cooperation Association would have such hostility towards non-witches Witches like Nightingale see he knew that Wendy actually didn’t want to leave the Witch Cooperation Association She only intended to save Nightingale, but after her intervention, she was treated as a traitor by Cara and the other witches

After his first drink, Roland poured himself a second one Even if the ale wasn’t the best, it was still better than nothing

During theabout her and Wendy’s abilities Lightning said she could fly like a bird and fly freely through the air while Wendy was able to control the wind Hearing this, Roland couldn’t think of a good use for a technological upgrade, but for the upcoreat potential

He also asked her about the abilities of the other witches at the caly and seemed not to follow any rules Some effects could hardly be described with science while some were completely bizarre

For example, Cara the Snake Witch, the founder of the Witch Cooperation Association She could condense her ic into snakes – these snakes were not illusions, they could be touched and also attack an enemy The different colors of the snakes represented the different veno herself had only seen two types of snakes, paralysis and toxic

Roland found that it wasn’t only Anna, but Cara and the other witches could also only use their e For exae of five meters, it would suddenly disappear Cara’s snakes also couldn’t stray too far For Nightingale, it was an even shorter distance When she wanted to influence a foreign object, she would have to leave her fog and become visible

For this reason, they were always equipped with crossbows in case they had to face the Church or any other army who possessed God’s Stone of Retribution Otherwise, they could only flee in all directions

Roland worked until ht, and the fire in the fireplace had already diht it was time to sleep

When he opened the door to his bedroo rooain, where a woure was half shrouded in darkness, her shadow reflected by the fire was only displayed indifference to the previous instances, na robes Instead, she had replaced theer hidden from the outside world, and now everyone could directly see her appearance

Nightingale

Roland became a little nervous, this kind of battle, would … it be a lucky one?

When Nightingale noticed that the Prince had coot up and sloalked over Even only after half a day of rest, her face looked better than how most people would ever look Her pale cheeks were replaced with rosy ones, and her hair didn’t give her a dull appearance He thought, I have to say, the resilience of a witch is really ahed, breaking the silence and then continued, “Why don’t you rest longer? Lightning has already told iving a sole rong, and in her eyes he could see an indescribable dedication Roland realized that she hadher emotions towards him This look of determination was difficult to see in many other people, so Roland waited until the other had found the right words

However, Nightingale didn’t begin to speak iot down on one knee while holding a dagger in her hand, and slightly bowed her head – this was the etiquette for the standard knight cereiance to a superior, they would often do it this way

“Your Highness Roland Wiale, swear,” she said in a for as you will be kind to the witches, I will be at your service, whether as a strong shield against the deht, without any fear of regret, until the last ht, so this is her decision after the Witch Cooperation Association became such a disappoint the witches into a better future herself If it went like he wanted, he would refuse her offer, since he was ether If there were further ambitions and a common ideal, they could becoless to e as there was no suitable soil, even the best seeds would decay As a prince, he wouldn’t be able to depart frodoly to the court etiquette in the er and then touched her shoulders three tiale’s shoulders trehtly It seeht hand, holding it in front of her

Nightingale took his fingers and delicately kissed him on the back of his hand With this the ritual caiance ceremony exercised by the witches was extreh the whole set of actions couldn’t be archived with an ordinary background , And she also called herself Veronica… “Is Veronica your real name? Don’t you have a last nahness I have no intention to hide anything froo, I had left the house of Gilen Now the house and I have nothing to do with each other” Nightingale told hi, and put down even the last barrier to her heart by telling him of her own past

She was born in Silver City, the city whose na silver mines Her father was a viscount, but her es were not coale also had a brother named Hyde She had spent her whole childhood in Silver City, and that was the happiest period of her life
