It's not Him

While the battle raged on, the Princess raced through the forest in front of the golden knight.

She had managed to escape from an ordeal that would have most likely got her captured or killed.

If it wasn't because of Lanzo, she knew there would have been no escape from her fate.

While the horse sped through the path, the princess kept on looking backwards, hoping the young man was riding just right behind her.

"He's… Not following us, Yvain. Should we turn back for him?"

Yvain glanced back for a second, before sighing and answering. "No, princess, we are not out of danger ourselves. We should quickly check if there are any surviving knights and, if there are, we will definitely return for him."

It worried her to hear that answer, as If Lanzo really did not manage to escape, coming back later would probably mean retrieving his corpse instead of rescuing him.

There was no way he could fight against those two golden knights by himself.
