Chapter 256: Chapter 256: Setting Off to Find the Holy Sword!

The sparks of the bonfire crackled and danced under the night sky.

The girl sitting by the bonfire, hugging her knees, tried to fight against drowsiness and cold.

But as her eyelids grew heavier and heavier...

Lonely darkness gradually enveloped Freya.

Just then...

A new faint light appeared in the distant night, accompanied by the sound of approaching footsteps, making the girl's sleepiness completely disappear.

Freya first showed a happy expression, but quickly became nervous and vigilant again. As the figure holding the torch came closer, Freya saw who it was and finally breathed a sigh of relief, her expression completely at ease.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Because Reji had temporarily changed his plans, he spent more time at Earl Nicholas's residence, so by the time he returned to the temporary camp he had agreed upon with Freya, it was already late at night.
