Two weeks passed...

Thanks to Allen's help, the Barkaley region had made it through the water-month famine.

?andasnovel·?om Hearing about this, the hiding Wyncall became even more annoyed as his plan gradually crumbled.

"What the hell! Where did they get that much food?!" shouted Wyncall, echoing in the room dungeon.

Wyncall had been fervently hoping to impress the high priests with his skills, but fate had other ideas. Despite all the meticulous planning he had put in, everything crumbled to dust, leaving him with a bitter taste of disappointment. Not only did he fail to secure the coveted seat of the Order, but the attack on Barkaley, which was supposed to be swift and decisive, was now in danger of being delayed. This, he knew, would have a profound impact on the organization and its grand scheme of things.

The sound of footsteps was heard from the darkness, a woman in a red robe entered.

"Wyncall Doreward... I am your third observer. I have heard the situation from the second overseer; reports indicate that you failed to weaken the Barkaley region."

"He is wrong, I didn't fail. In fact, Lord Barkaley left this territory with 50 of his soldiers for Herrwade. If we attack the Barkaley residence now, the possibility of victory remains."

The woman replied, "There is, but it will be risky. We, the Servus, must ensure our victory. You, should know that the knight of rounds is heading towards Herrwade. The high priests decided to concentrate forces there. Even two of the high priests are currently in that place."

"Two high priests? Is the enemy that difficult this time?!"

"Other-worlder, knight of rounds, and he is one of the strongest, Birawa Budiono. He is the one who killed one of our high priests in the past. We can't underestimate him."

"So that's why you guys are concentrating our forces there."

"That's right. Wyncall Doreward, you have been recognized and trusted by the Ordo. Your abilities and intelligence are entrusted with weakening the defenses of the Barkaley region; that way, the Servus can attack this region without the need for the high priest's participation.

Your past accomplishments should be enough to show how competent you are at handling matters. But this time, you have failed."

"I told you I didn't fail!"

"I consider your plan a failure, but since you yourself consider it a successful plan, High Priest Allester ordered you to lead the assault troops."

"I-I'm leading?"

"If you are confident enough in your plan, you can bring 100 Daemon Servus members to attack the Barkaley residence."

Wyncall was silent for a while, calming himself down by closing his eyes.

Then he replied,

"I will accept 100 Servus. But tell High Priest Allester that I must postpone the invasion for a week for preparation.

If he agrees, send troops to the promised place; otherwise, you can kill me later due to my failure."

"I understand; I will convey this message to him."

"All for the sake of the eternal, Heil Satan."

"All for the sake of the eternal, Heil Satan."

...

One week...

Allen and Rodion,

Since they had already sold a lot of potatoes to Theda, Allen no longer needed to sell vegetables in the garden. Theda had arranged everything for sales, distribution, and profit sharing.

Allen now returned to the tavern, cooking meals with real potatoes and mushrooms. No longer needing to save, they finally had enough real food until the end of the water month.

Although the problem was still not solved, Allen could finally relax his shoulders. His mind was no longer occupied by other people.

And since he started feeling relaxed, he suddenly thought about his old promises. One of them was a promise he had with Susan.

When he drove Susan home, Allen always asked her things that he didn't understand about the world's common sense.I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

Susan once told Allen that he looked like her brother, but to Allen, Susan even looked more like a sister because she was so reliable and knew so many things.

"No, I don't know that much. I only know ordinary things. You're the one who doesn't know things that ordinary people should know," Susan said.

On the way home, Allen asked Susan about something he should have asked long ago.historical

"Susan, have you been able to tell me about yourself?" asked Allen.

Susan smiled sweetly, thinking, 'ah it turns out he remembers about it.'

In the middle of the falling snow, they walked under the umbrella, and Susan began to tell Allen her story.

"I have a brother, my only family after both my parents died ..We split up once he decided to raid dungeons a few months ago."

Raid dungeon... Every time Allen heard those words, he knew they would bring him back to the past. He was always afraid that the people around him would still be unhappy with him because of what he did back then.

"It looks like you also have bad memories of the dungeon, Allen. Despite your memory loss, perhaps you were trapped there before?"

Trapped... perhaps it could be said that those words were true. Currently, Allen is still trapped there, haunted by his past.

Once he spent two months with Rodion and Susan, he saw and got to know the customers who ate his food happily and met Peter's family. It made him know the price and value of life even more.

And he had, in the past, easily taken those lives.

With dread, Allen asked, "Is your brother lost in the dungeon?"

Susan shook her head and said, "No, he was captured by Prince Leofric for ignoring his orders. But where and where he is now, I don't know," Allen breathed a sigh of relief; he was happy that his brother might still be alive out there.

Susan continued, "Until now, I have always waited for him at home. If he comes back, I will show him I am now a grown woman who can care for myself, not a little girl who always whines for his help."

Allen looked at Susan with admiration. If it was him, maybe he couldn't overcome all those problems alone. Someone had always supported him. Starting with his mother, then transferred to Isabelle, then transferred to the Boldenville residence. As for Susan, she was alone, trying to survive, hoping her brother would return one day.

"Your brother will come back; I believe that," Allen said.

Allen realized that he was once again giving hope to others, just as he had done to Iva. He knew it was probably wrong, but he couldn't help but say it, knowing it would make the other person happy.

"I believe that too. If he comes back later, I'll introduce you to him."

"You'd better not."

"Eh? Why?"

"It's okay, I'm just... not comfortable with new people."

"Fufu, are you perhaps shy?"

"It's not that..."

"Take it easy, brother Arthur is a good person.

He will definitely be happy to see you.

He will definitely welcome you with a smile."

Susan whispered, "Until then, please remain my brother's substitute."

She thought, 'After that.. I hope the three of us will live forever.'

That night..

A large of fire was seen from the front gate of Barkaley Region.
