章節 82: Eating Courtney (1) *

After the Demons vanished, it took a few hours for everyone to be treated and for things to settle down. I didn't see Radakel, but I guessed he was with Liphiel.

We could have left immediately for the capital, but Amelia requested some rest before heading back to the palace. I understood her reasoning. The castle might have a suffocating atmosphere, after all. Liphiel, now in charge of us, accepted the request, and we all chose to rest in Uteska for the night.

Despite the battle damage, there were still plenty of houses in good shape, so we could all sleep in different homes. The knights took turns on watch, ensuring everything was safe. We had a warm dinner together and then picked random houses to sleep in for the night.

When I opened the door of the house I chose, it was an ordinary home. A family of Demons had probably lived here just hours ago. They had clearly left in a hurry, as there were half-eaten plates on the living room table.
