Chapitre 143: The Story of the Blacksmith

Aethelwolf stood up and faced Janrose. "Practice what you have learned just now and familiarize yourself with it. Take the carriage and go back to the mansion, but don't leave just yet. You are still covered in sweat and I don't want your mother to misunderstand us again." He cracked a joke to lighten the atmosphere. He then patted her shoulder before he left his office. 

Janrose wanted to say something, but she ended up looking at his figure silently as he went out of the office. His back looked straight and tall as if there was nothing wrong with him. Only she knew that her teacher wasn't in a good situation. "I promise that I'll win the competition tomorrow!" She muttered as she wiped the last traces of tears on her face. 

Aethelwolf jumped from the balcony. He didn't want his employees to see him right now.
