Chapter 30: Preparing II

Now only Hiroshi and Mrs. Nakamura remained. After leaving Yumi alone with her new bow, I walked towards their room. However, upon arriving there, I found no one.

Feeling confused, I decided to ask one of the castle servants who happened to be passing by. "Excuse me, do you happen to know where Hiroshi and Mrs. Nakamura are?" I asked politely.

The servant smiled kindly and replied, "They are in the library, Sir. If you'd like, I can escort you there."

I felt relieved hearing this and nodded. "Yes, please show me the way."

The servant understood immediately and began leading me. We walked along the long corridors of the castle, adorned with ancient tapestries and paintings depicting the long history of this kingdom. Our footsteps echoed softly on the cold marble floors, occasionally accompanied by the clinking of armor displayed along the hallway.
