"Liam, did you find the convent where Lana was placed?

"No, I contacted each monastery, but I was only able to get answers where nobles could enter, no matter who they were. There's still no other way to look directly at the area and check from outside."

"Well, I enquired, but the Duke of Norris didn't tell me exactly where he was. She would have regretted having her fiancée taken away from her house. I'm sure by now, I'm feeling very thoughtful by myself. Dammit, if I could pick you up right away...."

"I can't help it. You've been suffering from the aftermath of an unknown poison for days after the breakdown. I'm looking for Elaine, but what are you going to do if I can find her?

"I will abandon this country and move to another country to live with her. Once that happens, the Shadow Warrior will no longer be needed. You're free from me. You can do whatever you want."

"Well, let me do whatever I want. It's one of your freedom to be at your side, isn't it?

"Oh, my God, he's such a fan."

"Then I'll go around the convent to find Elaine. I'll contact you when I find someone like that."

"It's not a shadow warrior's job. Please."

Elaine Lana Norris has been gone for more than a month. Two weeks after the party, it seems that she left for the convent, but we still had no idea where the carriage was headed.

At the same time as she left, we got information that a carriage of a noble woman had been attacked by bandits in the mountains towards the northern monastery, and we went to the scene a few days later, thinking it was too late.

The information that they were attacked by bandits is true, and the carriage was dropped on the bottom of the valley and destroyed.

I managed to get down and into the river and carefully checked if there were any clues to the wrecked carriage, but there were no bodies around, and the luggage barely left a part of the woman's clothes. It is also possible that the woman on board was taken away before the carriage was dropped.

If dropped with a carriage, the water in the river would be cold, and your body would be stiff and incapable of moving.

If this is Lana's carriage, it is extremely unlikely to be alive. The remaining clothes were torn and torn apart, making it difficult to identify who they belonged to, and the search in the river was stopped there.

I believed Lana wasn't on this carriage and decided not to give up hope and keep looking for more.

And after that, when our clothes got wet, we decided to stop by Liam's boarding house, trembling in the cold.

Lana is my first love. And he is also the one who swore to marry as a child. But suddenly somebody tried to kill me, and I was still a kid, and I didn't have the power to protect her. I didn't want Lana involved, so I decided to stay away from myself.

Lana erased my memory, abandoned any involvement, and occasionally heard what she was up to. I had no connection, but I was relieved to be a princess and princess and lead a glorious life while being protected by my surroundings.

I didn't expect Fredrick, who was so stupid, to grow up like that. No, it must have been different. Did you say that Sandra had changed since she showed up? Until then, I had seen the two of them standing side by side several times, but it looked like they were doing pretty well.

That's why I turned my eyes and my ears as close as I could to avoid extra emotions.

On that party day, I had to pretend to see her face nearby for a few years, but unfortunately I couldn't see her well with my disturbed hair, and it was pathetic to see her in a magical way, so I was careful not to look up as hard as I could. Still, the last time I saw those beautiful blue eyes peering from the gap between my forehead reminded me of Lana at the time.

When I was a child, the Duchess of Norris was bound to attend my mother's tea party.

And Lana, who was brought by her mother every time, was more excited to stroll through the garden than the sweets prepared at the tea party.

In the back of the garden, her favorite playground was the maze of hedges, which the gardener painstakingly built for me and was only as low as the waist of an adult. Even though it's about the height of an adult's waist, a five-year-old child has enough height to block his/her sight, and from the eyes of the adults around him/her, he/she can see his/her head moving smoothly, so there is no need to worry about getting lost first.

The day I first met her, she entered a newly completed maze that I had not yet played with, playing on her own. That was while the gardener came to let me know that the maze was complete.

"If it's too simple, you'll get tired of it soon.

"Fufu, please try and tell me if it's easy. If you get lost and cry, you won't even know.

"Hmm, I won't cry anymore. I'm not a baby."

Bringing a gardener and a servant to the back of a garden with a maze in excitement, a strange maid stood on the other side of the maze. Even though my mother's guests had never come this far, and the beautiful flowers were not blooming, I was staring at the middle of the hedge with my fist.

Whose maid is that? Someone's maid who came to your mother's tea party. What are you doing here?

"Now, I don't know. There is not a partition in the garden, so someone may have come this far by mistake while walking."

Looking around, I couldn't find a lady who looked like that.

Looking beyond the maid's gaze, I noticed something sparkling in the maze. I ran to the maze and yelled at someone inside.

"Hey, what are you doing here? This is my maze! You can't go in there and have fun before me! Get out of here!

Suddenly I appeared, and the maid was surprised and called out to the child inside, but what I heard from inside was a crying voice of a girl.

"Who? I'd like to leave, but I don't know the direction anymore."

"Lady, go straight ahead and take the second corner to the right! Oh, I disagree. Not you....."

The maid seemed to have shown the way from the top of the platform set up by the gardener to see the whole thing, but perhaps the right from the maid and the right from the girl inside were opposite, so she couldn't get out for long. Earlier, I've been telling you that the opposite direction is different, but because of that, the girl panicked and her feet slowed down.

Hey, pick me up and show me the whole maze.

"But then...."

I'll pick you up.

I was looking forward to the maze, but I couldn't leave the girl who might be crying. I kept my gardener on my shoulder and saw the whole maze. It wasn't that big, but it was more complicated than I thought.

"Ah, well made. If you don't know anything, you'll get lost."

"I didn't think this was going to happen, and I should have put a no-go rope on it."

"Okay, I got the route. Put it down. I'm coming."

When I looked from the top, I didn't think it would be so confusing, but when I actually went inside, I realized that I was surrounded by walls that were not different from my back length, and I felt a lot of pressure.
