I used to wonder why important people who were sent as messengers in Taiga dramas and stuff never got killed. Who would’ve thought I’d figure it out by living it?” Subaru understood now that it was an issue of reputation.

In any case, the meeting with the envoy Joshua Juukulius had already come to an end, and evening had fallen on the new Roswaal Manor.
