章 88: The Valkyries (2) The Conversation in The Forest

---The Day of Lyan's Return To The City---

"As expected, it would come to this, huh... I never thought that such a day would ever come..." Alice uttered as she let out a sigh.

After Lyan and Surena meet with the other members of the Valkyries, Raine, and Ravia, they followed up about what happened with each other and Surena explained to them how she pledged her allegiance to Lyan during their break.

"But," Surena raised her right hand, drawing the attention of everyone.

"The two of you don't need to pledge your life to him as well. The lady only gave that order to me, so the two of you didn't have any obligation to do so," (Surena)

Entrusting one's life is not an easy matter. While having their soul and life bounded by the Mana Oath, they would need to obey every order and command given by Lyan to them. It means that they will completely lose their current freedom and will have to attend to him until their last breath.
