After a while, I heard a sound like a lightning strike from the direction of Karza Castle. I checked the map, and it seemed that NONO's army had started to attack. Not long after that, I heard men cheering. It seems that the castle has fallen into the hands of the enemy.

A man came running toward us from the direction of the castle, shouting such a thing. He must have been a scout sent by the Safan army. The man shouted that the castle had fallen and ran toward the main camp.

The soldiers of the Sefand army are rustling. The soldiers who had been sitting on the ground stood up. At that moment, several soldiers were seen running out from the main camp.

The men are saying this with their mouths. At the sound of their voices, the soldiers suddenly began to move noisily. From the main camp, I saw the commander-in-chief on his horse and a few knights coming out from behind him. The commander-in-chief gave me a glance and turned his horse to the south.

He did not answer the question, but started to walk at a brisk pace. However, she was not so sure, and started to talk to us more.

"I'm asking you where you're going. We are not going in that direction. Besides, it's not safe for a small group of people to walk around in the mountains. You don't know this, but sometimes Malbahn comes down here at night. If that dragon finds you, he will eat you for sure.

Just as I was about to head for Ilimo's stable, I ran into Rico. She came running up to us at a trot and looked worried, asking if we were hurt. Then she stopped to look at Escalina.

The dinner was a barbecue. And it was to be held in the garden.

This kind of event gets the kids excited. At our house, we put pre-cut meat, vegetables, etc. on a platter, and everyone puts what they like on skewers and grills them. It is interesting to see the personalities of each child.

Eldest daughter, Eryl, is a balanced type. She eats equal portions of meat and vegetables. She may not like some foods, but she seems to eat them as much as she dares. Not only that, she cooks and bakes for us too. She's a very good girl.

The opposite is true for Alyria and Idea. They only eat what they like. Alyria eats meat. Meat, meat, meat. Idea prefers vegetables, especially the asparagus-like vegetable called neuro. But since Idea is popular with his younger brothers and sisters, he is busy taking care of them.

We decided to eat before that, and we invited Escalina to the imperial residence as well. I thought about going back to the village of Silures and going to ......, but that would be time consuming and above all, inefficient. Then they suggested to go back to the house together and have a meal together.

Escalina was fine with not eating, but as everyone was enjoying the barbecue with their tastebuds, she was puzzled and brought the cooked food to her mouth, perhaps due to the rarity of the event.

When everyone's stomachs are full and the party is about to end, I look over at Sidhi and Escalina. Escalina was still eating. Like Alyria, she was eating meat on a skewer, which was grilled, with a blank expression on her face. Well, I guess that's understandable, since the meat used is the finest dragon meat and it's delicious.
