???????

The atmosphere suddenly turned frosty.

Yuren stared at Cluna with a hardened expression.

In a word, she was pissed.

Cluna returned the stare with an equally icy gaze.

The biggest problem was that I was stuck between them like a sandwich.

I couldn’t move, crushed by the overwhelming presence of the two strongest beings in the room.

Cluna didn’t budge as Yuren rose from her seat and walked towards her.

The distance between them closed to less than 5 centimeters.

A dragon versus the strongest elf.

Were they seriously about to fight?

This is epic! But please, fight when I’m not around!

No, this wasn’t the time for that.

I quickly intervened.

“I don’t know what this is about, but both of you, calm down.”

“As you wish.”

“Very well.”

“…?”

Just as the tension reached a breaking point, they both stepped back, obeying my command.

I was left speechless, my jaw hanging open.

Of course, I was glad they weren’t fighting.

Yuren and Cluna were arguably the strongest members of the Royal Knights.

If they fought…

The immediate damage would be one thing, but the aftermath would be devastating.

In other words, it was no easy feat to stop them from fighting.

But they had backed down so easily.

Naturally, I was taken aback.

Honestly, I wondered if they were just messing with me.

But I quickly dismissed that thought.

“I’ll let you off the hook this time for the commander’s sake. Be careful next time.”

“I should be the one saying that.”

“Stop fighting already!!”

I couldn’t hold it in any longer and yelled at the top of my lungs.

After the commotion, Cluna led me back to the infirmary.

I was exhausted.

I had originally snuck out of boredom, but now, going back and falling asleep seemed like a good choice.

As we walked, a question popped into my mind.

“Why were you about to fight Yuren?”

“Wasn’t she trying to neglect your injuries?”

“I snuck out and went to see her myself.”

“No, Yuren is the one at fault.”

“….”

Her voice carried a weight that left me speechless.

Were they always this hostile towards each other?

No, they used to be close friends.

“Weren’t you two friends?”

“We were, once.”

“So you’re not friends anymore?”

“No, that’s no longer the case.”

“Well, that’s not good.”

It was always best for comrades to get along.

Especially for the Royal Knights, who fought for countless causes.

To avoid being crushed by those burdens, they needed to share them with each other.

Even putting that aside, hadn’t we all joined forces and achieved victory during the True Demon invasion?

There had to be some camaraderie among them.

“Do you think this is a bad thing, Commander?”

“It is. It’s best for everyone to get along.”

“I understand.”

“Hmm?”

“I’ll talk to Yuren tomorrow.”

“W-Well, that would be ideal, but…”

What was this? Why was she suddenly so submissive?

Just a moment ago, she was ready to fight to the death and now, she was backing down so easily.

It was strange how readily she obeyed me…

As I tilted my head in confusion, we finally reached the infirmary.

Thanks to Cluna’s constant care, the room was spotless.

“Let’s start with a basic checkup.”

“When is the prosthetic arm from the Dwarf Kingdom arriving?”

“Tomorrow or the day after, I presume.”

“Guess I’ll be stuck here until then.”

I sighed.

I had been cooped up in the infirmary for the past three days and was getting restless.

But after witnessing what had just happened, I thought it might be better to stay put.

Besides, this was a chance to escape from the mountain of paperwork that came with being commander.

With that in mind, I let Cluna do her thing.

She expertly examined my body.

Losing a limb had more consequences than I imagined.

Putting aside phantom pains and the inconvenience of having only one arm…

There was pus from the wound, blood clotting, and countless other things to worry about.

Of course, my arm hadn’t actually been severed, but it was essentially the same…

“I’m done.”

“I see. Good work.”

“You’re the one who worked hard, Commander.”

“Time for bed.”

It was late.

The sun had already set, and Cluna’s fairies were lighting the torches in the hallway.

The darkness and the flickering torches created a picturesque scene, unique to the medieval setting.

“….”

“….”

“…Why are you still here?”

“For your safety, Commander.”

“Go back.”

Cluna, who had been sitting in a chair beside me, nodded and left for her room.

It was always like this.

She would stay by my side until I told her to leave.

But why bother in the first place?

Then again, it would be wrong to reprimand her for following my orders.

I lay in bed, lost in thought.

Another day had passed.

I wished the prosthetic arm would arrive soon.

I had rested enough and wanted to do something.

[Hello?]

“….”

The reason I didn’t scream wasn’t because of my dignity as commander.

I had seen it, if only for a brief moment, passing through my body like a ghost from the ceiling.

My vision had briefly turned white before returning to normal.

I had been so startled that I had passed out momentarily.

I quickly sat up.

What was that?

“You crazy bastard. How dare you appear here?”

[Don’t be so harsh. We’re practically one entity now.]

“Don’t make me laugh. You took my eye and my arm.”

[I gave you power in exchange, didn’t I?]

“That’s why I haven’t kicked you out yet.”

The entity that had suddenly appeared from the ceiling was Time.

It used to only appear briefly in urgent situations but now, it seemed to have grown stronger, feeding on me.

It appeared quite frequently.

Naturally, I felt repelled.

It possessed the abilities of the Time Stop Breeding Uncle, which was one thing, but I never knew when or where it might devour me.

I clicked my tongue.

“Go back. You make me lose my appetite.”

[Hmm? So you’re fine with seeing the others?]

“They’re a hundred times better than you.”

[Don’t be so trusting. You might get betrayed.]

“They are my proud members. That won’t happen.”

I firmly replied to Time’s words.

What a ridiculous attempt to sow discord.

My members and I had gone through life and death together.

They were my comrades.

If they were to betray me, it meant I had done something wrong.

I trusted them that much.

Time burst into laughter.

[Hahaha! Fine, if you say so! I won’t say another word!]

“Then get lost.”

[I’m looking forward to it.]

“What?”

[I wonder if you’ll forgive them. Or not?]

Time left with those ambiguous words.

I tilted my head in confusion.

Objectively, her words were nonsense.

I couldn’t understand them.

Why would I need to forgive them when they had done nothing wrong?

But a strange sense of unease lingered.

It wasn’t something I could ignore.

Time’s words kept replaying in my mind.

I didn’t think a being of such power would say something so random.

There had to be a hidden meaning.

But no matter how hard I tried to figure it out, it only gave me a headache.

I eventually gave up and fell asleep.

); }

I’ll worry about it tomorrow.

I was sleepy.

???????

It was funny.

They were trying to take what’s mine with something so trivial.

I could break it at any moment if I wanted to, but at the same time, I was curious.

Would he forgive them? Or would he abandon them?

I couldn’t wait to see his reaction when I took away that petty power.

But if I lifted it now, he might just brush it off.

He was that kind of person.

A soft-hearted human who overlooked most things.

So, I’ll wait for now.

Humans inevitably make mistakes as time passes.

And when it becomes unforgivable, that’s when I’ll take away that power.

What kind of expression will you make then? Hatred? Betrayal? Anger?

I didn’t know, but…

The anticipation of seeing those emotions keeps me patient and then, you’ll realize.

That I’m the only one you have left.

Until then, I can afford to smile and let it slide.
