Chapter 600: Reason Behind Oriana's Name

"How long are we going to stay here?" Oriana asked.

"You want to leave?"

"I feel like I should be by your mother's side for a few days and handle my responsibilities as Crown Princess."

"Is this decision related to our esteemed guests?"

"In part, yes."

Arlan felt comforted by her sense of duty toward their family and her position as Crown Princess. "We will return tomorrow morning."

She agreed and then asked, "That sword… I felt you saw it as more than just a gift."

Arlan nodded. "I'm trying to investigate where the Mortimers came from. There's no trace of their origins, as if they've skillfully erased all evidence. But sometimes, such people always carry something they value and never leave behind; instead, they bear it with pride."

"Is that sword something like that?"

He hummed. "Have you ever heard your grandfather talking about swords, special ones?"
